RE: Rule 24F-2 Notice for Western-Southern Life Assurance Company
Separate Account 2 (33-79906) for Fiscal Year Ended
December 31, 1995
Ladies & Gentlemen:
This opinion is being furnished in connection with the
registration, pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), of an indefinite amount
of securities (the "Accumulation Units") of Western-Southern Life
Assurance Company Separate Account 2, a separate investment account
(the "Separate Account") of Western-Southern Life Assurance Company
established pursuant to Ohio law. I understand that the Separate
Account proposes to file a notice (the "Notice") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") with respect
to the Accumulation Units for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1995, pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the 1940 Act. This opinion is
being furnished with a view to your filing it with the Commission
in conjunction with the filing of the Notice.
This opinion is limited solely to the laws of the State of Ohio as
applied by courts in such State. This opinion is limited solely to
the Accumulation Units of the Separate Account as of the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1995, as reflected in the Notice. I
understand for foregoing limitation is acceptable to you.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, please be advised that is
my opinion that the Accumulation Units covered by the Notice were
legally issued and (to the extent still outstanding) are fully paid
and non-assessable.
Very truly yours,
/S/ DONALD J. WUEBBLING
