RE: Security Life of Denver Insurance Company
Security Life of Denver Separate Account L1
File No. 33-74190
Dear Commissioners:
On behalf of Security Life of Denver Insurance Company (the "Company") and
its Separate Account L1 (the "Account"), we are filing a certification pursuant
to paragraph (j) of Rule 497 under the Securities Act of 1933. In this regard,
we certify that the form of prospectus for certain variable universal life
contracts offered by the Company through the Account otherwise required to be
filed under paragraph (b) of Rule 497 would not differ from the form of
prospectus contained in Post-Effective Amendment No. 7 to the Form S-6
registration statement for the Account (the "Amendment"). The Amendment was
filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 27,
1998 via EDGARLINK.
Sincerely,
/s/ Anna M. Kautzman
Anna M. Kautzman
Assistant General Counsel
