                    ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE
                                    COMPANY

This Prospectus describes Director Life, a modified single premium variable life
insurance Policy ("Policy" or "Policies") offered to applicants age 90 and under
by ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company ("Hartford"). The Policy
allows the Policy Owner pay a single premium and, subject to restrictions,
additional premiums.
 
The Policy is a modified endowment contract for federal income tax purposes,
except in certain cases described under "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23. A
LOAN, DISTRIBUTION OR OTHER AMOUNT RECEIVED FROM A MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACT
DURING THE LIFE OF THE INSURED WILL BE TAXED TO THE EXTENT OF ANY ACCUMULATED
INCOME IN THE POLICY. ANY SURRENDER AMOUNTS THAT ARE TAXABLE WILL BE SUBJECT TO
A 10% ADDITIONAL TAX, WITH CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS.
 
   
Generally, the minimum initial premium Hartford will accept is $10,000. The
initial premium will be allocated to HVA Money Market Fund, Inc. After the right
to cancel period has expired, the amount so allocated will be transferred to the
Funds specified in the Policy Owner's application. The Funds underlying the
Sub-Accounts currently available under the Policy are: Hartford Advisers Fund,
Inc., Hartford Bond Fund, Inc., Hartford Capital Appreciation Fund, Inc.,
Hartford Dividend and Growth Fund, Inc., Hartford Index Fund, Inc., Hartford
International Advisers Fund, Inc., Hartford International Opportunities Fund,
Inc., Hartford Mortgage Securities Fund, Inc., Hartford Small Company Fund,
Inc., Hartford Stock Fund, Inc., HVA Money Market Fund, Inc., and Hartford
MidCap Fund, Inc.
    
 
There is no guaranteed minimum Account Value for a Policy. The Account Value of
a Policy will vary up or down to reflect the investment experience of the Funds
to which premiums have been allocated. The Policy Owner bears the investment
risk for all amounts so allocated. The Policy continues in effect while the Cash
Surrender Value is sufficient to pay the monthly charges under the Policy
("Deduction Amount"). The Policy may terminate if the Cash Surrender Value is
insufficient to cover a Deduction Amount and, after expiration of a specified
period, no additional premium payments are received by Hartford.
 
The Policies provide for a Face Amount, which is the minimum death benefit under
the Policy. The death benefit ("Death Benefit") may be greater than the Face
Amount. The Account Value will, and under certain circumstances the Death
Benefit of the Policy may, increase or decrease based on the investment
experience of the Funds to which premiums have been allocated. However, while
the Policy is in force, the Death Benefit will never be less than the Face
Amount. At the death of the Insured, Hartford will pay the Death Proceeds to the
beneficiary. The Death Proceeds equal the Death Benefit less any Indebtedness
under the Policy.

                                    SUMMARY
                                  THE POLICIES
 
    The Policies are life insurance Policies with death benefits, cash values
and other traditional life insurance features. The Policies are "variable."
Unlike the fixed benefits of ordinary whole life insurance, the Account Value
will, and the Death Benefit may increase or decrease based on the investment
experience of the Funds to which premium payments have been allocated. The
Policies are credited with units ("Accumulation Units") to calculate Account
Values. The Policy Owner may transfer the Account Values among the Funds.
 
    The Policies can be issued on either a single life or "last survivor" basis.
For a discussion of how last survivor Policies operate differently from single
life Policies, see "Last Survivor Policies," page 17.
 
                       THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS
 
    Separate Account Five ("Separate Account") funds the variable life insurance
Policies offered by this Prospectus. Hartford established the Separate Account
pursuant to Connecticut insurance law and organized as a unit investment trust
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Policies currently
offer Sub-Accounts, each investing exclusively in a Fund. The investment
objectives of the Funds are as set forth in "The Separate Account -- Funds,"
page 8. Applicants should read the Funds prospectus accompanying this Prospectus

(1) For a complete description of the nature of the services provided in
    consideration of the operating expenses deducted, please see the Fund
    prospectuses.
    
(2) The MidCap Fund is a new Fund: Operating expenses are based on annualized
    estimates of such expenses to be incurred in the fiscal year. HL Investment
    Advisors, Inc. agreed to waive its fees for this Fund until the assets
    (excluding assets contributed by companies affiliated with HL Investment
    Advisors, Inc.) first reach $20 million. Without this waiver, the investment
    advisory fee would be .575% annually. Total operating expense without the
    waiver would be .90% annually.
 
    The investment adviser for all the Funds is HL Investment Advisors, Inc., an
affiliate of Hartford. HL Investment Advisors, Inc. retains a sub-investment
adviser with respect to some of the Funds, and has entered into an investment
services agreement with respect to some of the Funds. See "The Separate
Account," page 8.
 
                                    PREMIUMS
 
    The Policy permits the Policy Owner to pay a large single premium and,
subject to restrictions, additional premiums. The Policy Owner may choose a
minimum initial premium of 80%, 90% or 100% of the Guideline Single Premium
(based on the Face Amount). Under current underwriting rules, which are subject
to change, applicants between the ages of 35 and 80 may be eligible for
simplified underwriting without a medical examination if they meet simplified
underwriting standards. For applicants who are below age 35 or above age 80, or
who do not meet simplified underwriting eligibility, full underwriting applies,
except that substandard underwriting applies in those cases that represent
substandard risks according to customary underwriting guidelines.
 
                             DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
 
    On the Policy Date and on each Monthly Activity Date, Hartford will deduct a
Deduction Amount from the Account Value. The Deduction Amount will be made pro
rata from each Sub-Account. The Deduction Amount includes a cost of insurance
charge, a Tax Expense charge under Option 1, an administrative charge and a
mortality and expense risk charge. If the Cash Surrender Value is not sufficient
to cover a Deduction Amount due on any Monthly Activity Date the Policy may
lapse. See "Deductions and Charges" page 11, and "Policy Benefits and Rights --
Lapse and Reinstatement," page 16.
<PAGE>
ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                                7
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
    If the Account Value on a Policy Anniversary or on any date the Policy is
surrendered is less than $50,000, Hartford will deduct an annual maintenance fee
of $30. See "Deductions and Charges -- Annual Maintenance Fee," page 12.
 
    The Policy Owner may pay certain deductions and charges by electing one of
two available options at the time the Policy is issued. Once elected, the Policy
Owner Options cannot be changed:
 
    Under Option 1:
 
    - a Mortality and Expense Risk charge is deducted monthly from Account Value
      at an annual rate of .90% in Policy Years 1 through 10 and at an annual
      rate of .50% in Policy Years 11 and beyond.
 
    - a Tax Expense charge is also deducted monthly at an annual rate of .40%
      for the first ten Policy Years.
 
    - an Unamortized Tax charge is imposed during the first nine Policy Years on
      surrenders or partial surrenders according to the rate set forth in
      "Deductions and Charges -- Policy Owner Options -- Unamortized Tax
      Charge," page 13.
 
    Under Option 2: (May not be available in all states)
 
    - a Mortality and Expense Risk charge is deducted monthly from Account Value
      at an annual rate of .65% in Policy Years 1 through 10 and an annual rate
      of .50% in Policy Years 11 and beyond.
 
    - a Tax Expense charge is deducted from any Premium payment in all Policy
      Years at an annual rate of 4.0%.
 
    Hartford may set up a provision for income taxes against the assets of the
Separate Account. See "Deductions and Charges -- Taxes Charged Against the
Separate Account," page 14, and "Federal Tax Considerations," page 22.
 
    Applicants should review the Funds prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus
for a description of the charges assessed against the assets of the Funds.
 
    Upon surrender of the Policy and partial surrenders in excess of the Annual
Withdrawal Amount, a Surrender Charge may be assessed. See "Deductions and
Charges -- Surrender Charge," page 13.
 
    For a discussion of the tax consequences of surrender, or a partial
surrender, of the Policy, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
 
                                 DEATH BENEFIT
 
    The Policies provide for a Face Amount which is the minimum Death Benefit
under the Policy. The Death Benefit may be greater than the Face Amount. At the
death of the Insured, Hartford will pay the Death Proceeds to the beneficiary of
the Policy. See "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 14.
 
                                 ACCOUNT VALUE
 
    The Account Value will increase or decrease to reflect the investment
experience of the Funds applicable to the Policy and deductions for the monthly
Deduction Amount. There is no minimum guaranteed Account Value and the Policy
Owner bears the risk of the investment in the Funds. See "Policy Benefits and
Rights -- Account Value," page 14.
 
                                  POLICY LOANS
 
    A Policy Owner may obtain one or both of two types of cash loans from
Hartford. Both types of loans are secured by the Policy. At the time a loan is
requested, the aggregate amount of all loans (including the currently applied
for loan) may not exceed 90% of the difference of the Cash Value. See "Policy
Benefits and Rights -- Policy Loans," page 15.
 
                                     LAPSE
 
    A Policy may terminate if the Cash Surrender Value on any Monthly Activity
Date is less than the required monthly Deduction Amount. Hartford will give
written notice to the Policy Owner and a 61-day grace period during which
additional amounts may be paid to continue the Policy. See "Policy Benefits and
Rights -- Policy Loans," page 15, and "-- Lapse and Reinstatement," page 16.
 
                        CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
 
    An Policy Owner has a limited right to return the Policy for cancellation.
If the Policy Owner returns the Policy, by mail or hand delivery, to Hartford or
to the agent who sold the Policy, to be canceled within ten days after delivery
of the Policy to the Policy Owner (in certain cases, this free-look period is
longer), Hartford will return to the Policy Owner, within seven days thereafter,
the greater of the premiums paid for the Policy, less any Indebtedness or the
sum of (1) the Account Value, less any Indebtedness, on the date the returned
Policy is received by Hartford or its agent and (2) any deductions under the
Policy or by the Funds for taxes, charges or fees.
 
    In addition, once the Policy is in force, it may be exchanged during the
first 24 months after its issuance for a permanent life insurance Policy on the
life of the Insured without submitting proof of insurability. See "Policy
Benefits and Rights -- Cancellation and Exchange Rights," page 16.
 
                                TAX CONSEQUENCES
 
    The current federal tax law generally excludes all death benefit payments
from the gross income of the Policy beneficiary. The Policies generally will be
treated as modified
<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
endowment contracts. This status does not affect the Policies' classification as
life insurance, nor does it affect the exclusion of death benefit payments from
gross income. However, loans, distributions or other amounts received under a
modified endowment contract are taxed to the extent of accumulated income in the
Policy (generally, the excess of Account Value over premiums paid) and may be
subject to a 10% penalty tax. See "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
 
                                  THE COMPANY
 
   
    ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company ("Hartford") is a stock life
insurance company engaged in the business of writing life insurance and
annuities, both individual and group, in all states of the United States, except
New York, and the District of Columbia. Hartford was formerly named ITT Hartford
Life and Annuity Insurance Company. Hartford was originally incorporated under
the laws of Wisconsin on January 9, 1956, and was subsequently redomiciled to
Connecticut. Its offices are located in Simsbury, Connecticut; however, its
mailing address is P.O. Box 2999, Hartford, CT 06104-2999. Hartford is a
subsidiary of Hartford Fire Insurance Company, one of the largest multiple lines
insurance carriers in the United States. Hartford is ultimately controlled by
The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
    
 
    Hartford is rated A+ (superior) by A.M. Best and Company, Inc., on the basis
of its financial soundness and operating performance. Hartford is rated AA by
Standard & Poor's and AA+ by Duff and Phelps, on the basis of its claims paying
ability. These ratings do not apply to the investment performance of the
Sub-Accounts. The ratings apply to Hartford's ability to meet its insurance
obligations, including those described in this Prospectus.
 
                              THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
                                    GENERAL
 
    Separate Account Five ("Separate Account") is a separate account of Hartford
established on August 17, 1994 pursuant to the insurance laws of the State of
Connecticut and it is organized as a unit investment trust registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The
Separate Account meets the definition of "separate account" under federal
securities law. Under Connecticut law, the assets of the Separate Account are
held exclusively for the benefit of Policy Owners and persons entitled to
payments under the Policies. The assets of the Separate Account are not
chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business which Hartford may
conduct.
 
                                     FUNDS
 
    The assets of each Sub-Account are invested exclusively in one of the Funds.
A Policy Owner may allocate premiums among the Funds. Policy Owners should
review the following brief descriptions of the investment objectives of the
Funds in connection with that allocation. Policy Owners are also advised to read
the Funds prospectus accompanying this Prospectus for more detailed information.
There is no assurance that any of the Funds will achieve its stated objectives.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 HARTFORD INTERNATIONAL ADVISERS FUND, INC.
 
    Seeks maximum long-term total rate of return consistent with prudent
investment risk by investing in a portfolio of equity, debt and money market

in non-U.S. currencies and will be traded in non-U.S. markets.

 HARTFORD MIDCAP FUND, INC.

    All of the Funds are organized as corporations under the laws of the State
of Maryland and are registered as diversified open-end management companies
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each Fund continually issues an
unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest in the
Fund. Such shares are offered to separate accounts, including the Separate
Account, established by Hartford or one of its affiliated companies specifically
to fund the Policies and other Policies issued by Hartford or its affiliates, as
permitted by the Investment Company Act of 1940.
 
    It is conceivable that in the future it may be disadvantageous for variable
life insurance separate accounts and variable annuity separate accounts to
invest in the Funds simultaneously. Although neither Hartford nor the Funds
currently foresee any such disadvantages either to variable life insurance
Policy Owners or variable annuity contract owners, the Funds' Board of Directors
intends to monitor events in order to identify any material conflicts between
variable life Policy Owners and variable annuity contract owners and to
determine what action, if any, should be taken in response thereto. If the Board
of Directors were to conclude that separate funds should be established for
variable life insurance and variable annuity separate accounts, Hartford will
bear the attendant expenses.
 
    All investment income of, and other distributions to, each Sub-Account
arising from the applicable Fund are reinvested in shares of that Fund at net
asset value. The income and both realized gains or losses on the assets of each
Sub-Account are therefore separate and are credited to or charged against the
Sub-Account without regard to income, gains or losses from any other Sub-Account
or from any other business of Hartford. Hartford will purchase shares in the
Funds in connection with premiums allocated to the applicable Sub-Account in
accordance with Policy Owners' directions and will redeem shares in the Funds to
meet Policy obligations or make adjustments in reserves, if any. The Funds are
required to redeem Fund shares at net asset value and to make payment within
seven days.
 
    Hartford reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law as then in
effect, to make additions to, deletions from or substitutions for the Separate
Account and its Sub-Accounts which fund the Policies. No substitution of
securities will take place without notice to and consent of Policy Owners and
without prior approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission to the extent
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Subject to Policy Owner
approval, Hartford also reserves the right to end the registration under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 of the Separate Account or any other separate
accounts of which it is the depositor and which may fund the Policies.
 
    Each Fund is subject to investment restrictions which may not be changed
without the approval of a majority of the shareholders of the Fund. See the
Funds prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus.
 
                               INVESTMENT ADVISER
 
    All of the Funds are sponsored by Hartford and are incorporated under the
laws of the State of Maryland. HL Investment Advisors, Inc. ("HL Advisors")
serves as the investment manager to each of the Funds.
 
    Wellington Management Company, L.L.P. ("Wellington Management") serves as
sub-investment adviser for Hartford Advisers Fund, Hartford Capital Appreciation
Fund, Hartford Dividend and Growth Fund, Hartford International Advisers Fund,
Hartford International Opportunities Fund, Hartford Small Company Fund, Hartford
Stock Fund and Hartford MidCap Fund.

    In addition, HL Advisors has entered an investment services agreement with
Hartford Investment Management Company, Inc. ("HIMCO"), pursuant to which HIMCO
will provide certain investment services to Hartford Bond Fund, Hartford Index
Fund, Hartford Mortgage Securities Fund and HVA Money Market Fund.
 
    A full description of the Funds, their investment policies and restrictions,
risks, charges and expenses and all other aspects of their operation is
contained in the accompanying Funds' prospectuses which should be read in
conjunction with this Prospectus before investing and in the Funds' Statement of
Additional Information which may be ordered from Hartford. The Funds may not be
available in all states.
 
                                   THE POLICY
                            APPLICATION FOR A POLICY
 
    Individuals wishing to purchase a Policy must submit an application to
Hartford. A Policy will be issued only on the lives of Insureds age 90 and under
who supply evidence of insurability satisfactory to Hartford. Acceptance is
subject to Hartford's underwriting rules and Hartford reserves the right to
reject an application for any reason. IF AN APPLICATION FOR A POLICY IS
REJECTED, THEN YOUR INITIAL PREMIUM WILL BE RETURNED ALONG WITH AN ADDITIONAL
AMOUNT FOR INTEREST, BASED ON THE CURRENT RATE BEING CREDITED BY HARTFORD. No
change in the terms or conditions of a Policy will be made without the consent
of the Policy Owner.
 
    The Policy will be effective on the Policy Date only after Hartford has
received all outstanding delivery requirements and received the initial premium.
The Policy Date is the date used to determine all future cyclical transactions
on the Policy, e.g., Monthly Activity Date, Policy Months and Policy Years. The
Policy Date may be prior to, or the same as, the date the Policy is issued
("Issue Date").
 
    If the Coverage Amount is over the current limits established by Hartford,
the initial payment will not be accepted with the application. In other cases
where Hartford receives the initial payment with the application, Hartford will
provide fixed conditional insurance during underwriting according to the terms
of conditional receipt established by Hartford. The fixed conditional insurance
will be the insurance applied for, up to a maximum that varies by age. If no
fixed conditional insurance was in effect, on Policy delivery, Hartford will
require a sufficient payment to place the insurance in force.
                                    PREMIUMS
 
    The Policy permits the Policy Owner to pay a large single premium and,
subject to restrictions, additional premiums. The Policy Owner may choose a
minimum initial premium of 80%, 90% or 100% of the Guideline Single Premium
(based on the Face Amount). Under current underwriting rules, which are subject
to change, applicants between ages 35 and 80 may be eligible for simplified
underwriting without a medical examination if they meet simplified underwriting
standards as evidenced in their responses in the application. For applicants who
are below age 35 or above age 80, or who do not meet simplified underwriting
eligibility, full underwriting applies, except that substandard underwriting
applies only in those cases that represent substandard risks according to
customary underwriting guidelines.
 
    Additional premiums are allowed if they do not cause the Policy to fail to
meet the definition of a life insurance Policy under Section 7702 of the Code.
The amount and frequency of additional premium payments will affect the Cash
Value and the amount and duration of insurance. Hartford may require evidence of
insurability for any additional premiums which increase the Coverage Amount.
Generally, the minimum initial premium Hartford will accept is $10,000. Hartford
may accept less than $10,000 under certain circumstances. Premium which does not
meet the tax qualification guidelines for life insurance under the Code will not
be applied to the Policy.
 
                             ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS
 
    Within three business days of receipt of a completed application and the
initial premium payment at Hartford's Home Office, Hartford will allocate the
entire premium payment to HVA Money Market Fund, Inc. After the expiration of
the right to cancel period the Account Value in HVA Money Market Fund, Inc. will
be allocated among the Funds in whole percentages to purchase Accumulation Units
in the applicable Sub-Accounts as the Policy Owner directs in the application.
Premiums received on or after the expiration of the right to cancel period will
be allocated among the Sub-Accounts to purchase Accumulation Units in such
Sub-Accounts as directed by the Policy Owner or, in the absence of directions,
as specified in the original application. The number of Accumulation Units in
each Sub-Account to be credited to a Policy (including the initial allocation to
HVA Money Market Fund, Inc.) will be determined first by multiplying the premium
by the percentage to be allocated to each Fund to determine the portion to be
invested in the Sub-Account. Each portion to be invested in each Sub-Account is
then divided by the Accumulation Unit Value of that particular Sub-Account next
computed after receipt of the payment.
 
                            ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES
 
    The Accumulation Unit Value for each Sub-Account will vary to reflect the
investment experience of the applicable Fund and will be determined on each
Valuation Day
<PAGE>
ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                               11
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
by multiplying the Accumulation Unit Value of the particular Sub-Account on the
preceding Valuation Day by a "Net Investment Factor" for that Sub-Account for
the Valuation Period then ended. The Net Investment Factor for each Sub-Account
is the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund at the end of the
Valuation Period (plus the per share dividends or capital gains by that Fund if
the ex-dividend date occurs in the Valuation Period then ended) divided by the
net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund at the beginning of the
Valuation Period. Refer to the Funds' prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus
for a description of how the assets of each Fund are valued since such
determination has a direct bearing on the Accumulation Unit Value of the
Sub-Account and therefore the Account Value of a Policy. See also, "Policy
Benefits and Rights -- Account Value," page 14.
 
    All valuations in connection with a Policy, e.g., with respect to
determining Account Value and Cash Surrender Value and in connection with Policy
Loans, or calculation of Death Benefits, or with respect to determining the
number of Accumulation Units to be credited to a Policy with each premium, other
than the initial premium, will be made on the date the request or payment is
received by Hartford at its Home Office if such date is a Valuation Day;
otherwise such determination will be made on the next succeeding date which is a
Valuation Day.
 
                             DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
 
    The deduction or charges associated with this Policy are subtracted,
depending on the type of deduction or charge, from Premium payments as they are
made, upon surrender or partial surrender of the Policy, on the Policy
Anniversary Date or on a monthly pro rated basis from each Sub-Account
("Deduction Amount").
 
    Deductions are taken from Premium payments before allocations to the
Sub-Accounts are made. Monthly Deduction Amounts are subtracted on the Policy
Date and on each Monthly Activity Date after the Policy Date to cover charges
and expenses incurred in connection with a Policy. Each Deduction Amount will be
subtracted pro rata from each Sub-Account such that the proportion of Account
Value of the Policy attributable to each Sub-Account remains the same before and
after the deduction. The Deduction Amount will vary from month to month. If the
Cash Surrender Value is not sufficient to cover a Deduction Amount due on any
Monthly Activity Date, the Policy may lapse. See "Policy Benefits and Rights --
Lapse and Reinstatement," page 16.
 
    The Policy Owner may elect one of two options offered by Hartford to pay the
Mortality and Expense Risk charge, the Tax Expense charge and any Unamortized
Tax charge. Once selected, the option may not be changed. Option 2 may not be
available in all states.
 
    The following chart illustrates the charges and deductions associated with
this Policy. For a more detailed discussion see the descriptions below:

</TABLE>
 
                            COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE
 
   
    The cost of insurance charge covers Hartford's anticipated mortality costs
for standard and substandard risks. Current cost of insurance rates are lower
after the tenth Policy Year and are based on whether 100%, 90% or 80% of the
Guideline Single Premium has been paid at issue. The current cost of insurance
charge will not exceed the guaranteed cost of insurance charge. This charge is a
guaranteed maximum monthly rate multiplied by the Coverage Amount on the Policy
Date or any Monthly Activity Date. For standard risks, the guaranteed cost of
insurance rate is 125% of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Smoker/Non-
Smoker Mortality Table through age 90, grading down to 100% of the Commissioners
Standard Ordinary Smoker/ Non-Smoker Mortality Table at age 100 (age last
birthday). (Unisex rates may be required in some states.) A table of guaranteed
cost of insurance rates per $1,000 will be included in each Policy; however,
Hartford reserves the right to use rates less than those shown in the Table.
Substandard risks and Policies issued employing simplified underwriting
procedures will be charged at a higher cost of insurance rate that will not
exceed rates based on a multiple of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary
Smoker/ Non-Smoker Mortality Table (age last birthday). The multiple will be
based on the Insured's substandard rating.
    
 
    The Coverage Amount is first set on the Policy Date and then on each Monthly
Activity Date. On such days, it is the Face Amount less the Account Value
subject to a Minimum Coverage Amount. The Coverage Amount remains level between
the Monthly Activity Dates. The Coverage Amount may be adjusted to continue to
qualify the Policies as life insurance Policies under the current federal tax
law. Under that law, the Minimum Coverage Amount is a stated percentage of the
Account Value of the Policy determined on each Monthly Activity Date. The
percentages vary according to the attained age of the Insured.
 
    EXAMPLE:
 
Face Amount = $100,000
 
Account Value on the Monthly Activity Date = $70,000
 
Insured's attained age = 60
 
Minimum Coverage Amount percentage for age 60 = 30%
 
    On the Monthly Activity Date, the Coverage Amount is $30,000. This is
calculated by subtracting the Account Value on the Monthly Activity Date
($70,000) from the Face Amount ($100,000), subject to a possible Minimum
Coverage Amount adjustment. This Minimum Coverage Amount is determined by taking
a percentage of the Account Value on the Monthly Activity Date. In this case,
the Minimum Coverage Amount is $21,000 (30% of $70,000). Since $21,000 is less
than the Face Amount less the Account Value ($30,000), no adjustment is
necessary. Therefore, the Coverage Amount will be $30,000.
 
    Assume that the Account Value in the above example was $90,000. The Minimum
Coverage Amount would be $27,000 (30% of $90,000). Since this is greater than
the Face Amount less the Account Value ($10,000), the Coverage Amount for the
Policy Month is $27,000. (For an explanation of the Death Benefit, see "Policy
Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 14.)
 
    Because the Account Value and, as a result, the Coverage Amount under a
Policy may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance charge may also vary
on each Monthly Activity Date.
 
                             ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE
 
    Hartford will deduct monthly from the Account Value attributable to the
Separate Account an administrative charge equal to an annual rate of 0.25%. This
charge compensates Hartford for administrative expenses incurred in the
administration of the Separate Account and the Policies.
 
                             ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE
 
    If the Account Value on a Policy Anniversary or on the date the Policy is
surrendered is less than $50,000, Hartford will deduct on such date an annual
maintenance fee of $30. This fee will help reimburse Hartford for administrative
and maintenance costs of the Policies. The sum of the monthly administrative
charges and the annual maintenance fee will
<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
not exceed the cost Hartford incurs in providing administrative services under
the Policies.
 
                                SURRENDER CHARGE
 
    Upon surrender of the Policy or partial surrenders in excess of the Annual
Withdrawal Amount, a Surrender Charge may be assessed. In Policy Years 1 through
3, this charge is 7.5% of surrendered Account Value attributable to premiums
paid. In Policy Years 4 through 5, this charge is 6%. In Policy Years 6 through
7, this charge is 4%. In Policy Years 8 through 9, this charge is 2%. After the
ninth Policy Year, there is no charge.
 
    In determining the Surrender Charge and any Unamortized Tax charge discussed
below, any surrender or partial surrender during the first ten Policy Years will
be deemed first from premiums paid and then from earnings. If an amount equal to
all premiums paid has been withdrawn, no charge will be assessed on a surrender
of the remaining Account Value.
 
    The Surrender Charge is imposed to cover a portion of the sales expense
incurred by Hartford in distributing the Policies. This expense includes agents
commissions, advertising and the printing of prospectuses. See "Policy Benefits
and Rights -- Amount Payable on Surrender of the Policy," page 16.
 
                              POLICY OWNER OPTIONS
 
    In addition to the deductions and charges described above, the Policy Owner,
at the time the Policy is issued, will elect one of two options described below
to pay charges relating to certain taxes and mortality and expense risk charges.
The option selected by the Policy Owner may affect Policy Value.
 
    OPTION 1: ASSET-BASED CHARGES: Under this payment option, the Policy Owner
will pay:
 
    MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE: Hartford will deduct monthly from the
Account Value attributable to the Separate Account for Policy Years 1 through 10
a charge equal to an annual rate of 0.90% for the mortality risks and expense
risks Hartford assumes in relation to the variable portion of the Policies. In
Policy Years 11 and beyond, the charge drops to an annual rate of 0.50% for the
mortality risks and expense risks Hartford assumes in relation to the variable
portion of the Policies. The mortality risk assumed is that the cost of
insurance charges specified in the Policy will be insufficient to meet claims.
Hartford also assumes a risk that the Face Amount (the minimum Death Benefit)
will exceed the Coverage Amount on the date of death plus the Account Value on
the date Hartford receives written notice of death. The expense risk assumed is
that expenses incurred in issuing and administering the Policies will exceed the
administrative charges set in the Policy. Hartford may profit from the mortality
and expense risk charge and may use any profits for any proper purpose,
including any difference between the cost it incurs in distributing the Policies
and the proceeds of the Surrender Charge. The mortality and expense risk charge
is deducted while the Policy is in force, including the duration of a payment
option.
 
   
    TAX EXPENSE CHARGE: Hartford will deduct monthly from the Account Value a
charge equal to an annual rate of 0.40% for the first ten Policy Years. This
charge compensates Hartford for premium taxes imposed by various states and
local jurisdictions and for the cost of capitalization of certain policy
acquisition expenses under Section 848 of the Code. The charge includes a
premium tax deduction of 0.25% and Section 848 costs of 0.15%. The 0.25% premium
tax deduction over ten Policy Years approximates Hartford's average expenses for
state and local premium taxes (2.5%). Premium taxes vary, ranging from zero to
more than 4.0%. The premium tax deduction is made whether or not any premium tax
applies. The deduction may be higher or lower than the premium tax imposed.
However, Hartford does not expect to make a profit from this deduction. The
0.15% charge helps reimburse Hartford for approximate expenses incurred from
federal taxes under Section 848 of the Code. The federal tax deduction is a
factor Hartford must use when computing the maximum sales load chargeable under
Securities and Exchange Commission rules.
    
 
    UNAMORTIZED TAX CHARGE: Under this option, during the first nine Policy
Years, an Unamortized Tax charge will be imposed on surrender or partial
surrenders. The Unamortized Tax charge is shown below, as a percentage of
Account Value, at the end of each Policy Year:
 
<TABLE>

          4           1.50%
          5           1.25%
          6           1.00%
          7           0.75%
          8           0.50%
          9           0.25%
          10+         0.00%
</TABLE>
 
    After the ninth Policy Year, no Unamortized Tax charge will be imposed.
 
    OPTION 2: FRONTED CHARGES: Under this option, the Policy Owner will pay:
 
    MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE: In Policy Years 1 through 10, Hartford
will deduct monthly from the Account Value attributable to the Separate Account
a charge equal to an annual rate of 0.65% for the mortality risks and expense
risks Hartford assumes in relation to the variable portion of
<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
the Policies. In Policy Years 11 and beyond, the charge drops to an annual rate
of 0.50%. The mortality risk assumed is that the cost of insurance charges
specified in the Policy will be insufficient to meet claims. Hartford also
assumes a risk that the Face Amount (the minimum Death Benefit) will exceed the
Coverage Amount on the date of death plus the Account Value on the date Hartford
receives written notice of death. The expense risk assumed is that expenses
incurred in issuing and administering the Policies will exceed the
administrative charges set in the Policy. Hartford may profit from the mortality
and expense risk charge and may use any profits for any proper purpose,
including any difference between the cost it incurs in distributing the Policies
and the proceeds of the Surrender Charge. The mortality and expense risk charge
is deducted while the Policy is in force, including the duration of a payment
option.
 
   
    TAX EXPENSE CHARGE: Hartford will deduct from premium payments a tax expense
charge equal to an annual rate of 4.0% for all Policy Years. This charge
compensates Hartford for premium taxes imposed by various states and local
jurisdictions and for the cost of capitalization of certain policy acquisition
expenses under Section 848 of the Code. The charge includes a premium tax
deduction of 2.5% and a Section 848 cost of 1.5%. The premium tax deduction
approximates Hartford's average expenses for state and local premium taxes.
Premium taxes vary, ranging from zero to more than 4.0%. The premium tax
deduction is made whether or not any premium tax applies. The deduction may be
higher or lower than the premium tax imposed. However, Hartford does not expect
to make a profit from this deduction. The 0.15% charge helps reimburse Hartford
for approximate expenses incurred from federal taxes under Section 848 of the
Code. The federal tax deduction is a factor Hartford must use when computing the
maximum sales load chargeable under Securities and Exchange Commission rules.
    
 
    This Option may not be available in all states.
 
                          OTHER DEDUCTIONS OR CHARGES
 
CHARGES AGAINST THE FUNDS
 
    The Separate Account purchases shares of the Funds at net asset value. The
net asset value of Fund shares reflects investment advisory fees and
administrative expenses already deducted from the assets of the Funds. These
charges are described in the Funds' prospectus accompanying this Prospectus.
 
TAXES CHARGED AGAINST THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
 
    Currently, no charge is made to the Separate Account for federal income
taxes that may be attributable to the Separate Account. Hartford may, however,
make such a charge in the future. Charges for other taxes, if any, attributable
to the Separate Account may also be made.
 
                           POLICY BENEFITS AND RIGHTS
                                 DEATH BENEFIT
 
    While in force, the Policy provides for the payment of the Death Proceeds to
the named beneficiary when the Insured dies. The Death Proceeds payable to the
beneficiary equal the Death Benefit less any loans outstanding. The Death
Benefit equals the greater of (1) the Face Amount or (2) the Account Value
multiplied by a specified percentage. The percentages vary according to the
attained age of the Insured and are specified in the Policy. Therefore, an
increase in Account Value may increase the Death Benefit. However, because the
Death Benefit will never be less than the Face Amount, a decrease in Account
Value may decrease the Death Benefit but never below the Face Amount.
 
EXAMPLES:

Specified Percentage...................        250%        250%
</TABLE>
 
    In Example A, the Death Benefit equals $116,250, i.e., the greater of
$100,000 (the Face Amount) or $116,250 (the Account Value at the Date of Death
of $46,500, multiplied by the specified percentage of 250%). This amount less
any outstanding loans constitutes the Death Proceeds which Hartford would pay to
the beneficiary.
 
    In Example B, the death benefit is $100,000, i.e., the greater of $100,000
(the Face Amount) or $85,000 (the Account Value of $34,000, multiplied by the
specified percentage of 250%).
 
    All or part of the Death Proceeds may be paid in cash or applied under a
"Payment Option." See "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 18.
 
                                 ACCOUNT VALUE
 
    The Account Value of a Policy will be computed on each Valuation Day. The
Account Value will vary to reflect the investment experience of the Funds, the
value of the Loan Account and the monthly Deduction Amounts. There is no minimum
guaranteed Account Value.
 
    The Account Value of a particular Policy is related to the net asset value
of the Funds to which premiums on the Policy have been allocated. The Account
Value on any Valuation Day is calculated by multiplying the number of
Accumulation Units credited to the Policy in each Sub-Account as of the
Valuation Day by the Accumulation Unit Value of that Sub-Account, and then
summing the result for all the Sub-Accounts credited to the Policy and the value
of the Loan Account. See "The Policy -- Accumulation Unit Values," page 10.

                           TRANSFER OF ACCOUNT VALUE
 
    While the Policy remains in force, and subject to Hartford's transfer rules
then in effect, the Policy Owner may request that part or all of the Account
Value of a particular Sub-Account be transferred to other Sub-Accounts. Hartford
reserves the right to restrict the number of such transfers to no more than 12
per Policy Year, with no two transfers being made on consecutive Valuation Days.
However, there are no restrictions on the number of transfers at the present
time. Transfers may be made by written request or by calling toll free
1-800-231-5453. Transfers by telephone may be made by the agent of record or by
the attorney-in-fact pursuant to a power of attorney. Telephone transfers may
not be permitted in some states. The policy of Hartford and its agents and
affiliates is that they will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting
upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. Hartford will employ
reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are
genuine; otherwise, Hartford may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or
fraudulent instructions. The procedures Hartford follows for transactions
initiated by telephone include requirements that callers provide certain
information for identification purposes. All transfer instructions by telephone
are tape recorded.
 
    Hartford will send the Policy Owner confirmation of the transfer within five
(5) days from the date of any instruction. It is the responsibility of the
Policy Owner to verify the accuracy of all confirmations of transfers and to
promptly advise Hartford of any inaccuracies within one business day of receipt
of the confirmation.
 
    Hartford may modify the right to reallocate Account Value among the
Sub-Accounts if Hartford determines, in its sole discretion, that the exercise
of that right by one or more Policy Owners is, or would be, to the disadvantage
of other Policy Owners. Any modification could be applied to transfers to or
from some or all of the Sub-Accounts and could include, but not be limited to,
the requirement of a minimum period between each transfer, not accepting
transfer requests of an agent acting under the power of attorney on behalf of
more than one Policy Owner, or limiting the dollar amount that may be
transferred among the Sub-Accounts at one time. These restrictions may be
applied in any manner reasonably designed to prevent any use of the transfer
right that Hartford considers to be disadvantageous to other Policy Owners.
 
    As a result of a transfer, the number of Accumulation Units credited to the
Sub-Account from which the transfer is made will be reduced by the number
obtained by dividing the amount transferred by the Accumulation Unit Value of
that Sub-Account on the Valuation Day Hartford receives the transfer request.
The number of Accumulation Units credited to the Sub-Account to which the
transfer is made will be increased by the number obtained by dividing the amount
transferred by the Accumulation Unit Value of that Sub-Account on the Valuation
Day Hartford receives the transfer request.
 
                                  POLICY LOANS
 
    While the Policy is in effect, a Policy Owner may obtain, without the
consent of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not
irrevocable), one or both of two types of cash loans from Hartford. Both types
of loans are secured by the Policy. The aggregate loans (including the currently
applied for loan) may not exceed, at the time a loan is requested, 90% of the
Cash Value.
 
   
    The loan amount will be transferred pro rata from each Sub-Account
attributable to the Policy (unless the Policy Owner specifies otherwise) to the
Loan Account. The amounts allocated to the Loan Account will earn interest at a
rate of 4% per annum (6% for "Preferred Loans"). The amount of the Loan Account
that equals the difference between the Cash Value and the total of all premiums
paid under the Policy is considered a "Preferred Loan." For exchanges which take
place according to IRC Section 1035(a) that have an outstanding loan at the time
of transfer, the difference between the Account Value and the total of all
premiums paid under the Policy is considered a Preferred Loan. The loan interest
rate that Hartford will charge on all loans is 6% per annum. The difference
between the value of the Loan Account and the Indebtedness will be transferred
on a pro rata basis from the Sub-Accounts to the Loan Account on each Monthly
Activity Date. The proceeds of a loan will be delivered to the Policy Owner
within seven business days of Hartford's receipt of the loan request.
    
 
    If the aggregate outstanding loan(s) secured by the Policy exceeds the
Account Value of the Policy less any Surrender Charges and due and unpaid
Deduction Amount, Hartford will give written notice to the Policy Owner that,
unless Hartford receives an additional payment within 61 days to reduce the
aggregate outstanding loan(s) secured by the Policy, the Policy may lapse.
 
    All or any part of any loan secured by a Policy may be repaid while the
Policy is still in effect. When loan repayments or interest payments are made,
they will be allocated among the Sub-Account(s) in the same percentage as
premiums are allocated (unless the Policy Owner requests a different allocation)
and an amount equal to the payment will be deducted from the Loan Account. Any
outstanding loan at the end of a grace period must be repaid before the Policy
will be reinstated. See "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and Reinstatement,"
page 16.
 
    A loan, whether or not repaid, will have a permanent effect on the Account
Value because the investment results of each Sub-Account will apply only to the
amount remaining in such Sub-Accounts. The longer a loan is outstanding, the
greater the effect is likely to be. The effect could be favorable or
unfavorable. If the Sub-Accounts earn
<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
more than the annual interest rate for amounts held in the Loan Account, a
Policy Owner's Account Value will not increase as rapidly as it would have had
no loan been made. If the Sub-Accounts earn less than the annual interest rate
for amounts held in the Loan Account, the Policy Owner's Account Value will be
greater than it would have been had no loan been made. Also, if not repaid, the
aggregate outstanding loan(s) will reduce the Death Proceeds and Cash Surrender
Value otherwise payable.
 
                   AMOUNT PAYABLE ON SURRENDER OF THE POLICY
 
    While the Policy is in force, a Policy Owner may elect, without the consent
of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not irrevocable),
to fully surrender the Policy. Upon surrender, the Policy Owner will receive the
Cash Surrender Value determined as of the day Hartford receives the Policy
Owner's written request or the date requested by the Policy Owner whichever is
later. The Cash Surrender Value equals the Account Value less any Surrender
Charges and Unamortized Tax charge and all Indebtedness. Hartford will pay the
Cash Surrender Value of the Policy within seven days of receipt by Hartford of
the written request or on the effective surrender date requested by the Policy
Owner, whichever is later. The Policy will terminate on the date of receipt of
the written request, or the date the Policy Owner requests the surrender to be
effective, whichever is later. For a discussion of the tax consequences of
surrendering the Policy, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
 
    If the Policy Owner chooses to apply the surrender proceeds to a payment
option (see "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 18), the Surrender Charge
will not be imposed to the surrender proceeds applied to the option. In other
words, the surrender proceeds will equal the Cash Surrender Value without
reduction for the Surrender Charge. However, any Unamortized Tax charge, if
applicable, will be deducted from the surrender proceeds to be applied. In
addition, any amounts withdrawn from payment Option 1, Option 5 or Option 6 will
be subject to a Surrender Charge, if applicable.
 
                               PARTIAL SURRENDERS
    While the Policy is in effect, a Policy Owner may elect, by written request,
to make partial surrender from the Cash Surrender Value. The Cash Surrender
Value, after partial surrender, must at least equal Hartford's minimum amount
rules then in effect; otherwise, the request will be treated as a request for
full surrender. The partial surrender will be deducted pro rata from each
Sub-Account, unless the Policy Owner instructs otherwise. The Face Amount will
be reduced proportionate to the reduction in the Account Value due to the
partial surrender. Partial surrenders in excess of the Annual Withdrawal Amount
will be subject to a Surrender Charge and any Unamortized Tax charges. See
"Deductions and Charges -- Surrender Charge," page 13, and "Deductions and
Charges -- Policy Owner Option 1," page 13. For a discussion of the tax
consequences of partial surrenders, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
 
                              BENEFITS AT MATURITY
 
    If the Insured is living on the "Maturity Date" (the anniversary of the
Policy Date on which the Insured is age 100), on surrender of the Policy to
Hartford, Hartford will pay to the Policy Owner the Cash Surrender Value. In
such case, the Policy will terminate and Hartford will have no further
obligations under the Policy. (The Maturity Date may be extended by rider where
approved, but see "Federal Tax Considerations -- Income Taxation of Policy
Benefits," page 23.)
 
                            LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
 
    The Policy will remain in force until the Cash Surrender Value is
insufficient to cover a Deduction Amount due on a Monthly Activity Date.
Hartford will notify the Policy Owner of the deficiency in writing and will
provide a 61-day period grace period to pay an amount sufficient to cover the
Deduction Amount(s) due. The notice will indicate the amount that must be paid.
 
    The Policy will continue through the grace period, but if no additional
premium payment is made, it will terminate at the end of the grace period. If
the person insured under the Policy dies during the grace period, the Death
Proceeds payable under the Policy will be reduced by the Deduction Amount(s) due
and unpaid. See "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 14.
 
    If the Policy lapses, the Policy Owner may apply for reinstatement of the
Policy by payment of the reinstatement premium and any applicable charges. A
request for reinstatement may be made within five years of lapse. If a loan was
outstanding at the time of lapse, Hartford will require repayment of the loan
before permitting reinstatement. In addition, Hartford reserves the right to
require evidence of insurability satisfactory to Hartford.
 
                        CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
 
    A Policy Owner has a limited right to return a Policy for cancellation. If
the Policy is returned, by mail or personal delivery to Hartford or to the agent
who sold the Policy, to be canceled within ten days after delivery of the Policy
to the Policy Owner (a longer free-look period is provided in certain cases),
Hartford will return to the Policy Owner, within seven days, the greater of
premiums paid for the Policy, less any Indebtedness or the sum of (1) the
Account Value less any Indebtedness on the date the returned Policy is received
by Hartford or its agent and (2) any deductions under Policy or by the Funds for
taxes, charges or fees.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
    Once the Policy is in effect, it may be exchanged, during the first 24
months after its issuance, for a non-variable flexible premium adjustable life
insurance Policy offered by Hartford (or an affiliated company) on the life of
the Insured. No evidence of insurability will be required. The new Policy will
have, at the election of the Policy Owner, either the same Coverage Amount as
under the exchanged Policy on the date of exchange or the same Death Benefit.
The effective date, issue date and issue age will be the same as existed under
the exchanged Policy. If a Policy loan was outstanding, the entire loan must be
repaid. There may be a cash adjustment required on the exchange.
 
                            SUSPENSION OF VALUATION,
                             PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS
 
    Hartford will suspend all procedures requiring valuation (including
transfers, surrenders and loans) on any day a national stock exchange is closed
or trading is restricted due to an existing emergency, as defined by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, or on any day the Securities and Exchange
Commission has ordered that the right of surrender of the Policies be suspended
for the protection of Policy Owners, until such condition has ended.
 
                             LAST SURVIVOR POLICIES
 
    The Policies are offered on both a single life and a "last survivor" basis.
Policies sold on a last survivor basis operate in a manner almost identical to
the single life version. The most important difference is that the last survivor
version involves two Insureds and the Death Proceeds are paid on the death of
the last surviving Insured. The other significant differences between the last
survivor and single life versions are listed below.
 
1.  The cost of insurance charges under the last survivor Policies are
    determined in a manner that reflects the anticipated mortality of the two
    Insureds and the fact that the Death Benefit is not payable until the death
    of the second Insured. See the last survivor illustrations in "Appendix A,"
    page 27.
 
2.  To qualify for simplified underwriting under a last survivor Policy, both
    Insureds must meet the simplified underwriting standards.
 
3.  For a last survivor Policy to be reinstated, both Insureds must be alive on
    the date of reinstatement.
 
4.  The Policy provisions regarding misstatement of age or sex, suicide and
    incontestability apply to either Insured.
 
5.  Additional tax disclosures applicable to last survivor Policies are provided
    in "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
 
                                 OTHER MATTERS
                                 VOTING RIGHTS
 
    In accordance with its interpretation of presently applicable law, Hartford
will vote the shares of the Funds at regular and special meetings of the
shareholders of the Funds in accordance with instructions from Policy Owners (or
the assignee of the Policy, as the case may be) having a voting interest in the
Separate Account. The number of shares held in the Separate Account which are
attributable to each Policy Owner is determined by dividing the Policy Owner's
interest in each Sub-Account by the net asset value of the applicable shares of
the Funds. Hartford will vote shares for which no instructions have been given
and shares which are not attributable to Policy Owners (i.e., shares owned by
Hartford) in the same proportion as it votes shares for which it has received
instructions. However, if the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any rule
promulgated thereunder should be amended, or if Hartford's present
interpretation should change and, as a result, Hartford determines it is
permitted to vote the shares of the Funds in its own right, it may elect to do
so.
 
    The voting interests of the Policy Owner (or the assignee) in the Funds will
be determined as follows: Policy Owners may cast one vote for each full or
fractional Accumulation Unit owned under the Policy and allocated to a
Sub-Account, the assets of which are invested in the particular Fund on the
record date for the shareholder meeting for that Fund. If, however, a Policy
Owner has taken a loan secured by the Policy, amounts transferred from the Sub-
Account(s) to the Loan Account in connection with the loan (see "Policy Benefits
and Rights -- Policy Loans," page 15) will not be considered in determining the
voting interests of the Policy Owner. Policy Owners should review the Funds
prospectus accompanying this Prospectus to determine matters on which
shareholders may vote.
 
    Hartford may, when required by state insurance regulatory authorities,
disregard Policy Owners' voting instructions if such instructions require that
the shares be voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or
investment objective of one or more of the Funds or to approve or disapprove an
investment advisory Policy for the Funds.
 
    In addition, Hartford itself may disregard Policy Owners' voting
instructions in favor of changes initiated by a Policy Owner in the investment
policy or the investment adviser of the Funds if Hartford reasonably disapproves
of such changes. A change would be disapproved only if the proposed change is
contrary to state law or prohibited by state regulatory authorities. If Hartford
does disregard voting instructions, a summary of that action and the reasons for
such action will be included in the next periodic report to Policy Owners.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
                          STATEMENTS TO POLICY OWNERS
 
    Hartford will maintain all records relating to the Separate Account and the
Sub-Accounts. At least once each Policy Year, Hartford will send to Policy
Owners a statement showing the Coverage Amount and the Account Value of the
Policy (indicating the number of Accumulation Units credited to the Policy in
each Sub-Account and the corresponding Accumulation Unit Value) and any
outstanding loan secured by the Policy as of the date of the statement. The
statement will also show premium paid, and Deduction Amounts under the Policy
since the last statement, and any other information required by any applicable
law or regulation.
 
                           LIMIT ON RIGHT TO CONTEST
 
    Hartford may not contest the validity of the Policy after it has been in
effect during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the Issue Date. If the
Policy is reinstated, the two-year period is measured from the date of
reinstatement. Any increase in the Coverage Amount as a result of a premium is
contestable for two years from its effective date. In addition, if the Insured
commits suicide in the two year period, or such period as specified in state
law, the benefit payable will be limited to the Account Value less any
Indebtedness.
 
                         MISSTATEMENT AS TO AGE AND SEX
 
    If the age or sex of the Insured is incorrectly stated, the Death Benefit
will be appropriately adjusted as specified in the Policy.
 
                                PAYMENT OPTIONS
 
    The surrender proceeds or Death Proceeds under the Policies may be paid in a
lump sum or may be applied to one of Hartford's payment options. The minimum
amount that may be applied under a payment option is $5,000, unless Hartford
consents to a lesser amount. UNDER PAYMENT OPTIONS 2, 3 AND 4, NO SURRENDER OR
PARTIAL SURRENDERS ARE PERMITTED AFTER PAYMENTS COMMENCE. FULL OR PARTIAL
SURRENDERS MAY BE MADE FROM PAYMENT OPTION 1 OR OPTION 6, BUT THEY ARE SUBJECT
TO A SURRENDER CHARGE, IF APPLICABLE. ONLY A FULL SURRENDER IS ALLOWED FROM
PAYMENT OPTION 5. A SURRENDER FROM PAYMENT OPTION 5 WILL ALSO BE SUBJECT TO THE
SURRENDER CHARGE, IF APPLICABLE.
 
    Hartford will pay interest of at least 3 1/2% per year on the Death Proceeds
from the date of the Insured's death to the date payment is made or a payment
option is elected. At such times, the proceeds are not subject to the investment
experience of the Separate Account.
 
    The following options are available under the Policies (Hartford may offer
other payment options):
 
OPTION 1 -- Interest Income
 
    This option offers payments of interest, at the rate Hartford declares, on
the amount applied under this option. The interest rate will never be less than
3 1/2% per year.
 
OPTION 2 -- Life Annuity
 
    A life annuity is an annuity payable during the lifetime of the payee and
terminating with the last payment preceding the death of the payee. This option
offers the largest payment amount of any of the life annuity options, since
there is no guarantee of a minimum number of payments nor a provision for a
death benefit payable to a beneficiary.
 
    It would be possible under this option for a payee to receive only one
annuity payment if he died prior to the due date of the second annuity payment,
two annuity payments if he died before the date of the third annuity payment,
etc.
 
OPTION 3 -- Life Annuity with 120, 180 or 240 Monthly Payments Certain
 
    This annuity option is an annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of the
payee with the provision that payments will be made for a minimum of 120, 180 or
240 months, as elected. If, at the death of the payee, payments have been made
for less than the minimum elected number of months, then the present value (as
of the date of the payee's death) of any remaining guaranteed payments will be
paid in one sum to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated, unless other
provisions have been made and approved by Hartford.
 
OPTION 4 -- Joint and Last Survivor Annuity
 
    An annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of the payee and a
designated second person, and thereafter during the remaining lifetime of the
survivor, ceasing with the last payment prior to the death of the survivor.
Based on the options currently offered by Hartford, the payee may elect that the
payment to the survivor be less than the payment made during the joint lifetime
of the payee and a designated second person.
 
    It would be possible under this option for a payee and designated second
person to receive only one payment in the event of the common or simultaneous
death of the parties prior to the due date for the second payment and so on.
 
OPTION 5 -- Payments for a Designated Period
 
    An amount payable monthly for the number of years, selected which may be
from five to 30 years. Under this
<PAGE>
ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                               19
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
option, you may, at any time, request a full surrender and receive, within seven
days, the termination value of the Policies as determined by Hartford.
 
    In the event of the payee's death prior to the end of the designated period,
the present value (as of the date of the payee's death) of any remaining
guaranteed payments will be paid in one sum to the beneficiary or beneficiaries
designated unless other provisions have been made and approved by Hartford.
 
    Option 5 is an option that does not involve life contingencies.
 
OPTION 6 -- Death Proceeds Remaining with Hartford
 
    Proceeds from the Death Benefit left with Hartford. These proceeds will
remain in the Sub-Accounts to which they were allocated at the time of death,
unless the beneficiary elects to reallocate them. Full or partial withdrawals
may be made at any time.
 
    VARIABLE AND FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS: When an annuity is effected, unless
otherwise specified, the surrender proceeds or Death Proceeds held in the
Sub-Accounts will be applied to provide a variable annuity based on the pro rata
amount in the various Sub-Accounts. Fixed annuities options are also available.
YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHETHER THE ALLOCATION OF PROCEEDS AMONG SUB-ACCOUNTS OF THE
SEPARATE ACCOUNT FOR YOUR ANNUITY PAYMENTS ARE BASED ON THE INVESTMENT
ALTERNATIVE BEST SUITED TO YOUR RETIREMENT NEEDS.
 
    VARIABLE ANNUITY: The Policies contains tables indicating the minimum dollar
amount of the first monthly payment under the optional variable forms of annuity
for each $1,000 of value of a Sub-Account. The first monthly payment varies
according to the form and type of variable payment annuity selected. The
Policiescontains variable payment annuity tables derived from the 1983a
Individual Annuity Mortality Table, with ages set back one year and with an
assumed investment rate ("A.I.R.") of 5% per annum. The total first monthly
variable annuity payment is determined by multiplying the proceeds value
(expressed in thousands of dollars) of a Sub-Account by the amount of the first
monthly payment per $1,000 of value obtained from the tables in the Policy.
 
    The amount of the first monthly variable annuity payment is divided by the
value of an annuity unit (an accounting unit of measure used to calculate the
value of annuity payments) for the appropriate Sub-Account no earlier than the
close of business on the fifth Valuation Day preceding the day on which the
payment is due in order to determine the number of annuity units represented by
the first payment. This number of annuity units remains fixed during the annuity
payment period and in each subsequent month the dollar amount of the variable
annuity payment is determined by multiplying this fixed number of annuity units
by the current annuity unit value.
 
    LEVEL VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS WOULD BE PRODUCED IF THE INVESTMENT RATE
REMAINED CONSTANT AND EQUAL TO THE A.I.R. IN FACT, PAYMENTS WILL VARY UP OR DOWN
AS THE INVESTMENT RATE VARIES UP OR DOWN RELATIVE TO THE A.I.R.
 
    FIXED ANNUITY: Fixed annuity payments are determined by multiplying the
amount applied to the annuity by a rate (to be determined by Hartford) which is
no less than the rate specified in the fixed payment annuity tables in the
Policy. The annuity payment will remain level for the duration of the annuity.
 
    Hartford will make any other arrangements for income payments as may be
agreed on.
 
                                  BENEFICIARY
 
    The applicant names the beneficiary in the application for the Policy. The
Policy Owner may change the beneficiary (unless irrevocably named) during the
Insured's lifetime by written request to Hartford. If no beneficiary is living
when the Insured dies, the Death Proceeds will be paid to the Policy Owner if
living; otherwise to the Policy Owner's estate.
 
                                   ASSIGNMENT
 
    The Policy may be assigned as collateral for a loan or other obligation.
Hartford is not responsible for any payment made or action taken before receipt
of written notice of such assignment. Proof of interest must be filed with any
claim under a collateral assignment.
 
                                   DIVIDENDS
 
    No dividends will be paid under the Policies.

                          DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICIES
 
    Hartford intends to sell the Policies in all jurisdictions where it is
licensed to do business. The Policies will be sold by life insurance sales
representatives who represent Hartford and who are registered representatives of
Hartford Equity Sales Company, Inc. ("HESCO") or certain other independent,
registered broker-dealers. Any sales representative or employee will have been
qualified to sell variable life insurance Policies under applicable federal and
state laws. Each broker-dealer is registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and all are members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
    Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") serves as Principal
Underwriter for the securities issued with respect to the Separate Account. Both
HESCO and HSD are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Hartford Life Insurance Company.
The principal business address of HESCO and HSD is the same as that of Hartford.
 
    The maximum sales commission payable to Hartford agents, independent
registered insurance brokers, and other registered broker-dealers is 6.0% of
initial and subsequent premiums. Additional annual compensation of no more than
0.75% of Account Value may be paid. From time to time, Hartford may pay or
permit other promotional incentives, in cash or credit or other compensation.
 
    Hartford may provide information on various topics to Policy Owners and
prospective Policies Owners in advertising, sales literature or other materials.
These topics may include the relationship between sectors of the economy and the
economy as a whole and its effect on various securities markets, investment
strategies and techniques (such as value investing, dollar cost averaging and
asset allocation), the advantages and disadvantages of investing in tax-
advantaged and taxable instruments, customer profiles and hypothetical purchase
scenarios, financial management and tax and retirement planning, and variable
annuities and other investment alternatives, including comparisons between the
Policies and the characteristics of, and market for, such alternatives.
 
                          SAFEKEEPING OF THE SEPARATE
                                ACCOUNT'S ASSETS
 
    The assets of the Separate Account are held by Hartford. The assets of the
Separate Account are kept physically segregated and held separate and apart from
the General Account of Hartford. Hartford maintains records of all purchases and
redemptions of shares of the Fund. Additional protection for the assets of the
Separate Account is afforded by Hartford's blanket fidelity bond, issued by
Aetna Casualty and Surety Company, in the aggregate of $50 million, covering all
of the officers and employees of Hartford.

                           FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
                                    GENERAL
 
    SINCE THE TAX LAW IS COMPLEX AND SINCE TAX CONSEQUENCES WILL VARY ACCORDING
TO THE ACTUAL STATUS OF THE POLICY OWNER INVOLVED, LEGAL AND TAX ADVICE MAY BE
NEEDED BY A PERSON, EMPLOYER, OR OTHER ENTITY CONTEMPLATING THE PURCHASE OF A
POLICY DESCRIBED HEREIN.
 
    It should be understood that any detailed description of the federal income
tax consequences regarding the purchase of the Policy cannot be made in this
Prospectus and that special tax rules may be applicable with respect to certain
purchase situations not discussed herein. In addition, no attempt is made here
to consider any applicable state or other tax laws. For detailed information, a
qualified tax adviser should always be consulted. This discussion of federal tax
considerations is based upon Hartford's understanding of existing federal income
tax laws as they are currently interpreted.
 
                            TAXATION OF HARTFORD AND
                              THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
    The Separate Account is taxed as a part of Hartford which is taxed as a life
insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"). Accordingly, the Separate Account will not be taxed as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Investment income
and realized capital gains on the assets of the Separate Account (the underlying
Funds) are reinvested and are taken into account in determining the value of the
Accumulation Units (see "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Account Value," page 14).
As a result, such investment income and realized capital gains are automatically
applied to increase reserves under the Policy.
 
    Hartford does not expect to incur any federal income tax on the earnings or
realized capital gains attributable to the Separate Account. Based upon this
expectation, no charge is currently being made to the Separate Account for
federal income taxes. If Hartford incurs income taxes attributable to the
Separate Account or determines that such taxes will be incurred, it may assess a
charge for such taxes against the Separate Account.
 
                       INCOME TAXATION OF POLICY BENEFITS
 
    For federal income tax purposes, the Policy should be treated as life
insurance Policies under Section 7702 of the Code. The death benefit under a
life insurance policy is generally excluded from the gross income of the
beneficiary. Also, a life insurance Policy owner is generally not taxed on
increments in the Policy value until the Policiesis partially or completely
surrendered. Section 7702 limits the amount of premiums that may be invested in
a Policy that is treated as life insurance. Hartford intends to monitor premium
levels to assure compliance with the Section 7702 requirements.
 
    During the first 15 Policy years, an "income first" rule generally applies
to distributions of cash required to be made under Code Section 7702 because of
a reduction in benefits under the Policy.
 
    The Maturity Date Extension Rider allows a Policy Owner to extend the
Maturity Date to the date of the Insured's death. If the Maturity Date of the
Policy is extended by rider, Hartford believes that the Policy will continue to
be treated as a life insurance Policy for federal income tax purposes after the
scheduled Maturity Date. However, due to the lack of specific guidance on this
issue, the result is not certain. If the Policy is not treated as a life
insurance Policy for federal income tax purposes after the scheduled Maturity
Date, among other things, the Death Proceeds may be taxable to the recipient.
The Policy Owner should consult a qualified tax adviser regarding the possible
adverse tax consequences resulting from an extension of the scheduled Maturity
Date.
 
                             LAST SURVIVOR POLICIES
 
    Although Hartford believes that the last survivor Policies are in compliance
with Section 7702 of the Code, the manner in which Section 7702 should be
applied to certain features of a joint survivorship life insurance policy not
directly addressed by Section 7702. In the absence of final regulations or other
guidance issued under Section 7702, there is necessarily some uncertainty
whether a last survivor Policy will meet the Section 7702 definition of a life
insurance Policy.
 
                          MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS
 
    A life insurance Policy is treated as a "modified endowment contract" under
Section 7702A of the Code if it meets the definition of life insurance in
Section 7702 but fails the "seven-pay" test of Section 7702A. The seven-pay test
provides that premiums cannot be paid at a rate more rapidly than that allowed
by the payment of seven annual premiums using specified computational rules
provided in Section 7702A(c). The large single premium permitted under the
Policy does not meet the specified computational rules for the "seven-pay test"
under Section 7702A(c). Therefore, the Policy will generally be treated as a
modified endowment Policy for federal income tax purposes. However, an exchange
under Section 1035 of the Code of a life insurance Policy issued before June 21,
1988 will not cause the new Policy to be treated as a modified endowment Policy
if no additional premiums are paid and there is no change in the death benefit
as the result of the exchange.
<PAGE>
24                               ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
    A Policy that is classified as modified endowment Policy is generally
eligible for the beneficial tax treatment accorded to life insurance. That is,
the death benefit is excluded from income and increments in value are not
subject to current taxation. However, loans, distributions or other amounts
received from a modified endowment Policy during the life of the Insured will be
taxed to the extent of any accumulated income in the Policy (generally, the
excess of account value over premiums paid). Liquidations that are taxable will
be subject to a 10% additional tax, with certain exceptions.
 
    All modified endowment contracts that are issued within any calendar year to
the same policy owner by one company or its affiliates shall be treated as one
modified endowment Policy in determining the taxable portion of any loan or
distributions.
 
                      ESTATE AND GENERATION SKIPPING TAXES
 
    When the Insured dies, the Death Proceeds will generally be includible in
the Policy owner's estate for purposes of federal estate tax if the last
surviving Insured owned the Policy. If the Policy Owner was not the last
surviving Insured, the fair market value of the Policy would be included in the
Policy Owner's estate upon the Policy Owner's death. Nothing would be includible
in the last surviving Insured's estate if he or she neither retained incidents
of ownership at death nor had given up ownership within three years before
death.
 
    Federal estate tax is integrated with federal gift tax under a unified rate
schedule. In general, estates less than $600,000 will not incur a federal estate
tax liability. In addition, an unlimited marital deduction may be available for
federal estate and gift tax purposes. The unlimited marital deduction permits
the deferral of taxes until the death of the surviving spouse (when the Death
Proceeds would be available to pay taxes due and other expenses incurred).
    If the Policy Owner (whether or not he or she is an Insured) transfers
ownership of the Policy to someone two or more generations younger, the transfer
may be subject to the generation-skipping transfer tax, the taxable amount being
the value of the Policy. The generation-skipping transfer tax provisions
generally apply to transfers which would be subject to the gift and estate tax
rules. Individuals are generally allowed an aggregate generation skipping
transfer exemption of $1 million. Because these rules are complex, the Policy
Owner should consult with a qualified tax adviser for specific information if
ownership is passing to younger generations.
 
                          DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
 
    Section 817 of the Code provides that a variable life insurance Policy
(other than a pension plan policy) will not be treated as a life insurance
Policy for any period during which the investments made by the separate account
or underlying fund are not adequately diversified in accordance with regulations
prescribed by the Treasury Department. If a Policy is not treated as a life
insurance Policy, the Policy Owner will be subject to income tax on the annual
increases in cash value.
 
    The Treasury Department has issued diversification regulations which
generally require, among other things, that no more than 55% of the value of the
total assets of the segregated asset account underlying a variable Policy is
represented by any one investment, no more than 70% is represented by any two
investments, no more than 80% is represented by any three investments, and no
more than 90% is represented by any four investments. In determining whether the
diversification standards are met, all securities of the same issuer, all
interests in the same real property project, and all interests in the same
commodity are each treated as a single investment. In addition, in the case of
government securities, each government agency or instrumentality shall be
treated as a separate issuer.
 
    A separate account must be in compliance with the diversification standards
on the last day of each calendar quarter or within 30 days after the quarter
ends. If an insurance company inadvertently fails to meet the diversification
requirements, the company may comply within a reasonable period and avoid the
taxation of policy income on an ongoing basis. However, either the company or
the Policy Owner must agree to pay the tax due for the period during which the
diversification requirements were not met.
 
    Hartford monitors the diversification of investments in the separate
accounts and tests for diversification as required by the Code. Hartford intends
to administer all Policies subject to the diversification requirements in a
manner that will maintain adequate diversification.
 
                           OWNERSHIP OF THE ASSETS IN
                              THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
 
    In order for a variable life insurance Policy to qualify for tax deferral,
assets in the segregated asset accounts supporting the variable Policy must be
considered to be owned by the insurance company and not by the variable Policy
owner. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has issued several rulings which
discuss investor control. The IRS has ruled that incidents of ownership by the
Policy owner, such as the ability to select and control investments in a
separate account, will cause the Policy owner to be treated as the owner of the
assets for tax purposes.
 
    Further, in the explanation to the temporary Section 817 diversification
regulations, the Treasury Department noted that the temporary regulations "do
not provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which investor control of
the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the investor, rather
than the insurance company, to be
<PAGE>
ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                               25
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
treated as the owner of the assets in the account." The explanation further
indicates that "the temporary regulations provide that in appropriate cases a
segregated asset account may include multiple sub-accounts, but do not specify
the extent to which policyholders may direct their investments to particular
sub-accounts without being treated as the owners of the underlying assets.
Guidance on this and other issues will be provided in regulations or revenue
rulings under section 817(d), relating to the definition of "variable Policy."
The final regulations issued under Section 817 do not provide guidance regarding
investor control, and as of the date of this Prospectus, no other such guidance
has been issued. Further, Hartford does not know if or in what form such
guidance will be issued. In addition, although regulations are generally issued
with prospective effect, it is possible that regulations may be issued with
retroactive effect. Due to the lack of specific guidance regarding the issue of
investor control, there is necessarily some uncertainty regarding whether a
Policy Owner could be considered the owner of the assets for tax purposes.
Hartford reserves the right to modify the Policies, as necessary, to prevent
Policy owners from being considered the owners of the assets in the Separate
Account.
 
                      LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASED FOR USE IN
                           SPLIT DOLLAR ARRANGEMENTS
    On January 26, 1996, the IRS released a technical advice memorandum ("TAM")
on the taxability of life insurance policies used in certain split dollar
arrangements. A TAM, issued by the National Office of the IRS, provides advice
as to the internal revenue laws, regulations, and related statutes with respect
to a specific set of facts and a specific taxpayer. In the TAM, among other
things, the IRS concluded that an employee was subject to current taxation on
the excess of the cash surrender value of the policy over the premiums to be
returned to the employer. Purchasers of life insurance policies to be used in
split dollar arrangements are strongly advised to consult with a qualified tax
adviser to determine the tax treatment resulting from such an arrangement.
                         FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING
    If any amounts are deemed to be current taxable income to the Policy owner,
such amounts will be subject to federal income tax withholding and reporting,
pursuant to the Code.
 
                      NON-INDIVIDUAL OWNERSHIP OF POLICIES
 
    Legislation has recently been proposed which would limit certain of the tax
advantages now afforded non-individual owners of life insurance Policies.
Prospective Policy owners which are not individuals should consult a tax adviser
to determine the status of this proposed legislation and its potential impact on
the purchaser.
 
                                     OTHER
 
    Federal estate tax, state and local estate, inheritance and other tax
consequences of ownership or receipt of Policy proceeds depend on the
circumstances of each Policy owner or beneficiary. A tax adviser should be
consulted to determine the impact of these taxes.
 
                    LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASES BY NONRESIDENT
                        ALIENS AND FOREIGN CORPORATIONS
 
   
    The discussion above provides general information regarding U.S. federal
income tax consequences to life insurance purchasers that are U.S. citizens or
residents. Purchasers that are not U.S. citizens or residents will generally be
subject to U.S. Federal income tax and withholding on taxable distributions from
life insurance policies at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. In
addition, purchasers may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes
that may be imposed by the purchaser's country of citizenship or residence.
Prospective purchasers are advised to consult with a qualified tax adviser
regarding U.S., state, and foreign taxation with respect to a life insurance
policy purchase.
    
 
                               LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
    There are no material legal proceedings pending to which the Separate
Account is a party.
 
                                 LEGAL MATTERS
 
    Legal matters in connection with the issue and sale of flexible premium
variable life insurance Policies described in this Prospectus and the
organization of Hartford, its authority to issue the Policies under Connecticut
law and the validity of the forms of the Policies under Connecticut law and
legal matters relating to the federal securities and income tax laws have been
passed on by Lynda Godkin, General Counsel of Hartford Life Insurance Companies.

                                   APPENDIX A
                           ILLUSTRATIONS OF BENEFITS
 
    The tables in Appendix A illustrate the way in which a Policy operates. They
show how the death benefit and surrender value could vary over an extended
period of time assuming hypothetical gross rates of return equal to constant
after tax annual rates of 0%, 6% and 12%. The tables are based on an initial
premium of $10,000. A male preferred age 45, a female preferred age 55 and a
male preferred age 65 with Face Amounts of $44,053, $34,014 and $20,000,
respectively, are illustrated for the single life preferred Policy for both
Policy Owner Option 1 and Policy Owner Option 2. The illustrations for the last
survivor preferred Policy assume male preferred and female preferred of equal
ages, including age 55 and 65 for Face Amounts of $45,454 and $28,329.
 
    The death benefit and surrender value for a Policy would be different from
those shown if the rates of return averaged 0%, 6% and 12% over a period of
years, but also fluctuated above or below those averages for individual Policy
Years. They would also differ if any Policy loan were made during the period of
time illustrated.
 
    The tables reflect the deductions of current Policy charges for Policy Owner
Option 1 and Policy Owner Option 2 and guaranteed Policy charges for a single
gross interest rate. The death benefits and surrender values would change if the
current cost of insurance charges change.
 
    The amounts shown for the death benefit and surrender value as of the end of
each Policy Year take into account an average daily charge equal to an annual
charge of 0.60% of the average daily net assets of the Funds for investment
advisory and administrative services fees. The gross annual investment return
rates of 0%, 6% and 12% on the Fund's assets are equal to net annual investment
return rates (net of the 0.60% average daily charge) of -0.60%, 5.40% and
11.40%, respectively.
 
    The hypothetical returns shown in the tables are without any tax charges
that may be attributable to the Separate Account in the future. In order to
produce after tax returns of 0%, 6%, and 12%, the Separate Account would have to
earn a sufficient amount in excess of 0% or 6% or 12% to cover any tax charges
(see "Deductions and Charges -- Taxes Charged Against the Separate Account,"
page 14).
 
    The "Premium Paid Plus Interest" column of each table shows the amount which
would accumulate if the initial premium was invested to earn interest, after
taxes of 5% per year, compounded annually.
 
    Hartford will furnish upon request, a comparable illustration reflecting the
proposed insureds age, risk classification, Face Amount or initial premium
requested, and reflecting guaranteed cost of insurance rates. Hartford will also
furnish an additional similar illustration reflecting current cost of insurance
rates which may be less than, but never greater than, the guaranteed cost of
insurance rates.

    The following unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Hartford Life Insurance Company and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of normal
recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results
of operations and the cash flows for the periods presented. Certain
reclassifications of prior year results were made to conform to current
presentation. Interim results are not indicative of the results which may be
expected for any other interim period or the full year. Certain statements

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
    
 
   
 NOTE 1.HARTFORD LIFE INC. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
    
 
   
    On February 10, 1997, HLI, an indirect parent of the Company, filed a
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as amended,
relating to the Initial Public Offering ("IPO") of up to 20% of HLI's Class A
common stock. Pursuant to the IPO on May 22, 1997, HLI sold to the public 26
million shares at $28.25 per share and received net proceeds of $687. Of the
proceeds, $527 was used to retire debt related to HLI's promissory notes
outstanding and the line of credit discussed in the note below with the
remaining $160 contributed to HLI's insurance subsidiaries to be used for
working capital and other general corporate purposes.
    
 
   
    The 26 million shares sold from the IPO represent approximately 18.6% of the
equity ownership in HLI and approximately 4.4% of the combined voting power of
HLI's Class A and Class B Common Stock. The Hartford Financial Services Group,
Inc. ("The Hartford"), an indirect parent of HLI, owns all of the 114 million
outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock of HLI, representing 81.4% of the
equity ownership in HLI and approximately 95.6% of the combined voting power of
HLI's Class A and Class B Common Stock. Holders of Class A Common Stock
generally have identical rights to the holders of Class B Common Stock except
that the holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share
while holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to five votes per share on
all matters submitted to a vote of the HLI stockholders.
    
 
   
 NOTE 2.HARTFORD LIFE INC. DEBT OFFERING
    
 
   
    On February 7, 1997, HLI declared a dividend of $1,184 payable to its direct
parent, Hartford Accident and Indemnity Company ("HA&I"). As a result, HLI
borrowed $1,084 on February 18, 1997, pursuant to a $1,300 line of credit, with
interest payable at the two-month Eurodollar rate plus 15 basis points, which,
together with a promissory note in the amount of $100, was paid as a dividend to
HA&I on February 20, 1997. Of the $1,184 dividend, $893 constituted a repayment
of the portion of HLI's third party indebtedness internally allocated, for
financial reporting purposes, to HLI's insurance subsidiaries (the "Allocated
Advances"). In addition, on April 4, 1997, HLI declared and paid a dividend of
$25 to its parent in the form of a promissory note. Subsequently, $12 of this
note was forgiven in the form of a capital contribution from HA&I.
    
 
   
    On February 14, 1997, HLI filed a shelf registration statement for the
issuance and sale of up to $1.0 billion in the aggregate of senior debt
securities, subordinated debt securities and preferred stock. On June 17, 1997,
HLI issued $650 of unsecured redeemable long-term debt in the form of notes and
debentures. Of this amount, $200 was in the form of 6.90% notes due June 15,
2004, $200 of 7.10% notes due June 15, 2007, and $250 of 7.65% debentures due
June 15, 2027. Interest on each of the notes and debentures is payable
semi-annually on June 15 and December 15, of each year, commencing December 15,
1997. HLI also issued $50 of short-term debt in the form of commercial paper. Of
the proceeds from this issuance, $670 was used to retire the remaining balance
on the $1,300 line of credit with the remainder being used for working capital
and other general corporate purposes. Subsequently, HLI reduced the capacity of
the line of credit from $1,300 to $250, which will be primarily used to support
the commercial paper program.
    
 
   
 NOTE 3.CONTINGENCIES
    
 
   
(A) LITIGATION
    
 
   
    The Company is involved in pending and threatened litigation in the normal
course of its business in which claims for monetary and punitive damages have
been asserted. Although there can be no assurances, management, at the present
time, does not anticipate that the ultimate liability arising from such pending
or threatened litigation will have a material effect on the financial condition
or operating results of the Company.

    Net income was $81 and $218 for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1997, as compared to a loss of $106 and $20 for the same periods
in 1996. Included in the results for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1996, are after-tax losses, primarily related to Closed Book GRC,
of $179 and $210. Excluding these after-tax losses, operating income increased
$8, or 11%, and $28, or 15%, for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1997, compared to the same periods in 1996. Net income in the
Annuity segment increased due to higher fee income on growing account values as
well as strong new business sales. Net income in the Individual Life Insurance
segment increased due to cost of insurance charges and other fee income on a
growing block of life insurance in-force. Guaranteed Investment Contracts
reported no net income in the third quarter of 1997 consistent with management's
expectations that net income (loss) subsequent to 1996 will be immaterial.

    Revenues, which are primarily comprised of investment income and fees earned
on assets under management, grew $95 or 39%, to $336 in the third quarter of
1997 and $217 or 31%, to $924 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
compared to the same periods in 1996. This growth resulted from an increase in
the average account value, primarily driven by individual variable annuities, of
$15.4 billion, or 36%, to $57.9 billion as of September 30, 1997 from $42.5
billion as of September 30, 1996, as a result of strong sales and market
appreciation in the separate account assets. Individual annuity sales were
approximately $2.6 billion and $7.6 billion for the third quarter and nine
months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, as compared to sales of $2.4
billion and $7.4 billion, respectively, for the same periods in 1996. Growth in
the assets under management by this segment also resulted in increased expenses
related to other insurance expenses, amortization of deferred policy acquisition
costs and taxes. Expenses increased $79, or 39%, to $280 in the third quarter of
1997 and $179, or 30%, to $776 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
compared to the same periods in 1996. Net income increased $16, or 40%, to $56
in the third quarter of 1997 and $38, or 35%, to $148 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, compared to the same periods in 1996.

    Revenues increased $15, or 14%, to $122 in the third quarter of 1997 and
$35, or 11%, to $358 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, over the
comparable periods in 1996. In the first quarter of 1996, a block of business
was assumed from Investors Equity which increased 1996 revenues by $9. Excluding
this transaction, year to date revenues increased $44, or 14% over prior year.
This growth was driven by increased cost of insurance charges and other fee
income earned on this growing block of business. Life insurance in-force grew
approximately $3 billion, or 6%, for September 30, 1997 over the prior period,
primarily due to sales of variable life products. Expenses in this segment
increased $11 or 11%, and $27 or 9%, for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1997, over the same periods in 1996, consistent with this growing
block of business. As a result, net income increased $4, or 36%, to $15 in the
third quarter of 1997 and $8, or 27%, to $38 for the nine months ended September
30, 1997, compared to the same periods in 1996.

    Revenues declined $73, or 33%, to $150 in the third quarter of 1997 and
$505, or 52%, for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, as compared to the
same periods in 1996. This decline is mainly related to the passage of the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, which effectively
eliminated all future sales of leveraged COLI due to the phase out of the
interest deduction on policy loans by 1998. The Company continues to write
variable COLI. Expenses declined $73, or 34%, in the third quarter of 1997 and
$506, or 53%, for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, as compared to the
same periods in 1996. Significant declines in benefits, claims and claim
adjustment expenses and policyholder dividends are the result of the decline of
the block of COLI business. As a result, net income was unchanged for the third
quarter of 1997, as compared to the same periods in 1996 and increased $1, or
5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, as compared to the same
periods in 1996.

    This segment reported no net income for the nine months ended September 30,
1997, as compared to losses of $184 and $214 for the same periods last year.
Exclusive of after-tax realized losses and other charges taken in the third
quarter of 1996 related to Closed Book GRC, this segment had an operating loss
of $15 and $45 for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1996.
These results are consistent with management's expectations that net income
(loss) from Closed Book GRC in the years subsequent to 1996 will be immaterial
based on the Company's current projections for the performance of the assets and
liabilities associated with Closed Book GRC due to actions taken in the third
quarter of 1996. However, no assurance can be given that, under certain
unanticipated economic circumstances which results in the Company's assumptions
being proven inaccurate, further losses in respect of Closed Book GRC will not
occur in the future.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
    
 
   
To the Board of Directors of ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company:
    
 
   
We have audited the accompanying statutory-basis balance sheets of ITT Hartford
Life and Annuity Insurance Company (a Connecticut Corporation and wholly owned
subsidiary of Hartford Life Insurance Company) (the Company) as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the related statutory-basis statements of income, changes in
capital and surplus, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
statutory-basis financial statements based on our audits.
    
 
   
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
    
 
   
The Company presents its financial statements in conformity with statutory
accounting practices as described in Note 1 of notes to statutory-basis
financial statements. When statutory-basis financial statements are presented
for purposes other than for filing with a regulatory agency, generally accepted
auditing standards require that an auditors' report on them state whether they
are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The
accounting practices used by the Company vary from generally accepted accounting
principles as explained and quantified in Note 1. In our opinion, because the
differences in accounting practices as described in Note 1 are material, the
statutory-basis financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position
of the Company as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996.
    
 
   
However, in our opinion, the statutory-basis financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996
in conformity with statutory accounting practices as described in Note 1.
    
 
   
As discussed in Note 1 of notes to statutory financial statements, during 1994,
the Company changed its valuation method in determining aggregate reserves for
future benefits.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               DECEMBER 31, 1996
                 (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
    
 
   
 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    
 
   
ORGANIZATION
    
 
   
    ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company ("ILA" or "the Company"),
formerly known as ITT Life Insurance Corporation, is a wholly owned subsidiary
of Hartford Life Insurance Company ("HLIC"), which is an indirect subsidiary of
Hartford Life, Inc. ("Hartford Life"), which is ultimately owned by ITT Hartford
Group, Inc. ("The Hartford"), formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of ITT
Corporation ("ITT"). On February 10, 1997, The Hartford announced its plans to
sell up to 20% of Hartford Life to the public. On December 19, 1995, ITT
Corporation distributed all the outstanding shares of The Hartford to ITT
shareholders of record in an action known herein as the "Distribution". As a
result of the Distribution, The Hartford became an independent, publicly traded
company. During 1996, ILA re-domesticated from the State of Wisconsin to the
State of Connecticut.
    
 
   
    ILA offers a complete line of ordinary and universal life insurance,
individual annuities and certain supplemental accident and health benefit
coverages.
    
 
   
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    
 
   
    The accompanying ILA statutory-basis financial statements were prepared in
conformity with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") and the State of
Connecticut Department of Insurance.
    
 
   
    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with statutory
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
    
 
   
    Statutory accounting practices and generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP") differ in certain significant respects. These differences principally
involve:
    
 
   
(1) treatment of policy acquisition costs (commissions, underwriting and selling
    expenses, premium taxes, etc.) which are charged to expense when incurred
    for statutory purposes rather than on a pro-rata basis over the expected
    life of the policy;
    
 
   
(2) recognition of premium revenues, which for statutory purposes are generally
    recorded as collected or when due during the premium paying period of the
    contract and which for GAAP purposes, generally, for universal life policies
    and investment products, are only recorded for policy charges for the cost
    of insurance, policy administration and surrender charges assessed to policy
    account balances. Also, for GAAP purposes, premiums for traditional life
    insurance policies are recognized as revenues when they are due from
    policyholders and the retrospective deposit method is used in accounting for
    universal life and other types of contracts where the payment pattern is
    irregular or surrender charges are a significant source of profit. The
    prospective deposit method is used for GAAP purposes where investment
    margins are the primary source of profit;
    
 
   
(3) development of liabilities for future policy benefits, which for statutory
    purposes predominantly use interest rate and mortality assumptions
    prescribed by the NAIC which may vary considerably from interest and
    mortality assumptions used for GAAP financial reporting;
    
 
   
(4) providing for income taxes based on current taxable income (tax return) only
    for statutory purposes, rather than establishing additional assets or
    liabilities for deferred Federal income taxes to recognize the tax effect
    related to reporting revenues and expenses in different periods for
    financial reporting and tax return purposes;
    
 
   
(5) excluding certain GAAP assets designated as non-admitted assets (e.g., past
    due agents' balances and furniture and equipment) from the balance sheet for
    statutory purposes by directly charging surplus;
    
 
   
(6) establishing accruals for post-retirement and post-employment health care
    benefits on an option basis, using a twenty year phase-in approach, whereas
    GAAP liabilities are required to be recorded;
    
 
   
(7) establishing a formula reserve for realized and unrealized losses due to
    default and equity risk associated with certain invested assets (Asset
    Valuation Reserve); as well as the deferral and amortization of realized
    gains and losses, motivated by changes in interest rates during the period
    the asset is held, into income over the remaining life to maturity of the
    asset sold (Interest Maintenance Reserve); whereas on a GAAP basis, no such
    formula reserve is required and realized gains and losses are recognized in
    the period the asset is sold;

(8) the reporting of reserves and benefits net of reinsurance ceded, where risk
    transfer has taken place; whereas on a GAAP basis, reserves are reported
    gross of reinsurance with reserve credits presented as recoverable assets;
    
 
   
(9) the reporting of fixed maturities at amortized cost, whereas GAAP requires
    that fixed maturities be classified as "held-to-maturity",
    "available-for-sale" or "trading", based on the Company's intentions with
    respect to the ultimate disposition of the security and its ability to
    affect those intentions. The Company's fixed maturities were classified on a
    GAAP basis as "available-for- sale" and accordingly, those investments were
    reflected at fair value with the corresponding impact included as a
    component of Stockholder's Equity designated as "Net unrealized capital
    (loss)/ gain on investments, net of tax". For statutory reporting purposes,
    Net Unrealized Capital Losses (Gains) on Common Stocks represent unrealized
    losses (gains) on common stock reported at fair value; and
    
 
   
(10) separate account liabilities are valued on the Commissioner's Annuity
     Reserve Valuation Method ("CARVM"), with the surplus generated recorded as
     a liability to the general account (and a contra liability on the balance
     sheet of the general account), whereas GAAP liabilities are valued at
     account value.
    
 
   
    As of and for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the
significant differences between statutory and GAAP basis net income and capital
and surplus for the Company are summarized as follows:

AGGREGATE RESERVES AND LIABILITIES FOR PREMIUM AND OTHER DEPOSIT FUNDS
    
 
   
    Aggregate reserves for payment of future life, health and annuity benefits
were computed in accordance with actuarial standards. Reserves for life
insurance policies are generally based on the 1958 and 1980 Commissioner's
Standard Ordinary Mortality Tables and various valuation rates ranging from 2.5%
to 5%. Accumulation and on-benefit annuity reserves are based principally on
individual annuity tables at various rates ranging from 2.5% to 8.75% and using
CARVM. Accident and health reserves are established using a two year preliminary
term method and morbidity tables based on Company experience.
    
 
   
    ILA has established separate accounts to segregate the assets and
liabilities of certain annuity contracts that must be segregated from the
Company's general assets under the terms of the contracts. The assets consist
primarily of marketable securities reported at market value. Premiums, benefits
and expenses of these contracts are reported in the Statutory Basis Statements
of Income.
    
 
   
    During 1994, the Company changed the valuation method on aggregate reserves
for future benefits resulting in a $10.7 million increase in surplus. The new
valuation method is in accordance with presently accepted actuarial standards.
    
 
   
INVESTMENTS
    
 
   
    Investments in bonds are carried at amortized cost. Bonds which are deemed
ineligible to be held at amortized cost by the NAIC Securities Valuation Office
("SVO")are carried at the appropriate SVO published value. When a permanent
reduction in the value of publicly traded securities occurs, the decrease is
reported as a realized loss and the carrying value is adjusted accordingly.
Common stocks are carried at market value with the difference from cost
reflected in surplus. Other invested assets are generally recorded at fair
value.
    
 
   
    Changes in net unrealized capital (losses)/gains on common stocks are
reported as (reductions)/additions of surplus. The Asset Valuation Reserve
("AVR") is designed to provide a standardized reserving process for realized and
unrealized losses due to default and equity risks associated with invested
assets. The reserve decreased by $568 in 1996 and increased by $5,588 and $1,356
in 1995 and 1994, respectively. Additionally, the Interest Maintenance Reserve
("IMR") captures net realized capital gains and losses, net of applicable income
taxes, resulting from changes in interest rates and amortizes these gains or
losses into income over the remaining life of the mortgage loan or bond sold.
Realized capital gains and losses, net of taxes not included in IMR are reported
in the Statutory Basis Statements of Income. Realized investment gains and
losses are determined on a specific identification basis. The amount of net
capital gains reclassified from the IMR was $1,413 and

$39 in 1996 and 1995, respectively, and the amount of net capital losses was $67
in 1994. The amount of income amortized was $392, $256 and $114 in 1996, 1995
and 1994, respectively.
    
 
   
OTHER LIABILITIES
    
 
   
    The amount reflected in other liabilities includes a receivable from the
separate accounts of $640 million and $333 million as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively. The balances are classified in accordance with NAIC
accounting practices.

 3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
    
 
   
    Transactions between the Company and its affiliates within The Hartford
relate principally to tax settlements, reinsurance, service fees, capital
contributions and payments of dividends.
    
 
   
    On June 30, 1995, the assets of Lyndon Insurance Company were contributed to
ILA. As a result, ILA received approximately $365 million in bonds and
short-term investments, common stocks and cash, $28 million in policy reserves,
$187 million of current tax liability, $26 million in IMR, $8 million in AVR
(offset by an aggregate write-in to surplus), and $4 million of other
liabilities. The assets in excess of liabilities of $112 million were recorded
as an increase to paid-in surplus.
    
   
    For additional information, see Note 5.
    
 
   
 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
    
 
   
    The Company and The Hartford have entered into a tax sharing agreement under
which each member in the consolidated U.S. Federal income tax return will make
payments between them such that, with respect to any period, the amount of taxes
to be paid by the Company, subject to certain adjustments, generally will be
determined as though the Company were to file separate federal, state and local
income tax returns.
    
 
   
    As long as The Hartford continues to beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, at least 80% of the combined voting power and 80% of the value of
the outstanding capital stock of Hartford Life, the Company will be included for
Federal income tax purposes in the consolidated group of which The Hartford is
the common parent. It is the current intention of The Hartford and its
subsidiaries to continue to file a single consolidated Federal income tax
return. The Company will continue to remit (receive from) The Hartford a current
income tax provision (benefit) computed in accordance with such tax sharing
agreement. Federal income taxes paid by the Company were $29,792, $215,921 and
$20,538 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The effective tax rate was 22%,
25% and 92% in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The following schedule
provides a reconciliation of the tax provision at the U.S. Federal Statutory
rate to Federal income tax expense (in millions).

 5.CAPITAL AND SURPLUS AND SHAREHOLDER
   DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
    
 
   
    The maximum amount of dividends which can be paid, without prior approval,
by State of Connecticut insurance companies to shareholders is subject to
restrictions relating to statutory surplus. Dividends are paid as determined by
the Board of Directors and are not cumulative. No dividends were paid in 1996 or
1994. ILA paid dividends of $10 million to its parent, HLIC, in 1995. As a
result of the Distribution by ITT, the assets of ITT Lyndon Insurance Company
(Lyndon) were contributed to ILA in June 1995. Substantially all the business
was removed from Lyndon prior to the contribution. The amount of assets which
exceeded liabilities at the contribution date ($112 million) was included in
paid-in surplus.

 6.PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT AND POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
    
   
    The Company's employees are included in The Hartford's non-contributory
defined benefit pension plans. These plans provide pension benefits that are
based on years of service and the employee's compensation during the last ten
years of employment. The Company's funding policy is to contribute annually an
amount between the minimum funding requirements set forth in the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the maximum amount that can be
deducted for Federal income tax purposes. Generally, pension costs are funded
through the purchase of HLIC's group pension contracts. Pension expense was
$358, $1,034, and $1,211 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Liabilities for
the plan are held by The Hartford.
    
 
   
    The Company also participates in The Hartford's Investment and Savings Plan,
which includes a deferred compensation option under IRC section 401(k) and an
ESOP allocation under IRC section 404(k). The liabilities for these plans are
included in the financial statements of The Hartford. The cost to ILA was not
material in 1996, 1995 and 1994.
    
 
   
    The Company's employees are included in The Hartford's contributory defined
health care and life insurance benefit plans. These plans provide health care
and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Substantially all employees
may become eligible for those benefits if they reach normal or early retirement
age while still working for the Company. The Company has prefunded a portion of
the health care and life insurance obligations through trust funds where such
prefunding can be accomplished on a tax effective basis. Amounts allocated by
The Hartford for post-retirement health care and life insurance benefits expense
(not including provisions for accrual of post-retirement benefit obligations)
are immaterial. The assumed rate of future increases in the per capita cost of
health care (the health care trend rate) was 9.3% for 1996, decreasing ratably
to 6% in the year 2001. Increasing the health care trend rates by one percent
per year would have an immaterial impact on the accumulated post-retirement
benefit obligation and the annual expense. The cost to ILA was not material in
1996, 1995 and 1994.
    
 
   
    Post-employment benefits are primarily comprised of obligations to provide
medical and life insurance to employees on long-term disability. Post-employment
benefit expense was not material in 1996, 1995 and 1994.
    
 
   
 7. REINSURANCE
    
 
   
    The Company cedes insurance to non-affiliated insurers in order to limit its
maximum loss. Such transfer does not relieve ILA of its primary liability. ILA
also assumes insurance from other insurers.
    
 
   
    Life insurance net retained premiums were comprised of the following:

    The Company ceded to a third party, on a modified coinsurance basis, 80% of
the variable annuity business written in 1994. The ceded business includes both
general and separate account liabilities. As a result of the agreement, in
December 1994, ILA transferred approximately $1,352 million in assets and
liabilities. The financial impact of the cession was an increase of
approximately $15 million to net income and surplus in 1994.
    
 
   
    In November 1994, the Company ceded, on a modified coinsurance basis, 30% of
the separate account variable annuity business distributed by Paine Webber to
Paine Webber Life Insurance Company ("PWLIC"). As a result of the agreement, ILA
transferred approximately $24 million in assets and liabilities to PWLIC. The
financial impact of the cession was an increase of approximately $765 to net
income and surplus in 1994.
    
 
   
    In October 1994, the agreement, effective December 1990, which required ILA
to coinsure 90% of all existing and new business, excluding variable annuity
business, written by the Company to HLIC, was terminated. As a result of the
termination, ILA received approximately $430 million in assets and liabilities
from HLIC. The impact of the transaction was a decrease of approximately $15
million to net income and surplus in 1994.
    
 
   
    In November 1993, ILA acquired, through an assumption reinsurance
transaction, substantially all of the individual fixed and variable annuity
business of Hartford Life and Accident, an affiliate. As a result of this
transaction, the assets and liabilities of the Company increased approximately
$1 billion, substantially all of which was transferred to the separate accounts
of the Company. The remaining assets and liabilities (approximately $41 million)
were transferred in October 1995. The impact of these transactions on net income
and surplus was not significant.
    
 
   
 8. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
    
 
   
    The Company maintains separate account assets and liabilities totaling $14.6
billion and $7.3 billion at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Separate
account assets are reported at fair value and separate account liabilities are
determined in accordance with CARVM, which approximates the market value less
applicable surrender charges. Separate account assets are segregated from other
investments, the policyholder assumes the investment risk,

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
   
and the investment income and gains and losses accrue directly to the
policyholder. Separate account management fees, net of minimum guarantees, were
$144 million, $72 million and $42 million in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively,
and are recorded as a component of other revenues on the Statutory Basis
Statements of Income.
    
 
   
 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
    
 
   
    As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Company had no material contingent
liabilities, nor had the Company committed any surplus funds for any contingent
liabilities or arrangements. The Company is involved in various legal actions
which have arisen in the normal course of its business. In the opinion of
management, the ultimate liability with respect to such lawsuits as well as
other contingencies is not considered to be material in relation to the results
of operations and financial position of the Company.
    
 
   
    Under insurance guaranty laws in most states, insurers doing business
therein can be assessed up to prescribed limits for policyholder losses incurred
by insolvent companies. The amount of any future assessments on ILA under these
laws cannot be reasonably estimated. Most of the laws do provide, however, that
an assessment may be excused or deferred if it would threaten an insurer's own
financial strength. Additionally, guaranty fund assessments are used to reduce
state premium taxes paid by the Company in certain states. ILA paid guaranty
fund assessments of $1,262, $1,684 and $583 in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. ILA incurred guaranteed fund expense of $548, $0 and $0 in 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively.

ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company ("Hartford") hereby 
represents that the aggregate fees and charges under the Policy are 
reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be 
incurred, and the risks assumed by Hartford.
                                           
                          UNDERTAKING TO FILE REPORTS
                                           
                                           
Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities 
Exchange Act of 1934, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic 
information, documents, and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or 
regulation of the Commission heretofore or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to 
authority conferred in that section.

          UNDERTAKINGS AND REPRESENTATIONS AS REQUIRED BY RULE 6E-3(T)
                                       
1.  Separate Account Five meets the definition of "Separate Account" under 
    Rule 6e-3(T).

2.  Hartford  undertakes to keep and make available to the Commission upon
    request any documents used to support any representation as to the
    reasonableness of fees.

   

UNDERTAKING ON INDEMNIFICATION

Under Section 33-772 of the Connecticut General Statutes, unless limited by 
its certificate of incorporation, the Registrant must indemnify a director 
who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any 
proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a director of the 
corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with 
the proceeding.

The Registrant may indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding 
because he is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding 
if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or 
not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any 
criminal proceeding, had no reason to believe his conduct was unlawful. Conn. 
Gen. Stat. Section 33-771(a). Additionally, pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. 
Section 33-776, the Registrant may indemnify officers and employees or agents 
for liability incurred and for any expenses to which they become subject by 
reason of being or having been an employee or officer of the Registrant. 
Connecticut law does not prescribe standards for the indemnification of 
officers, employees and agents and expressly states that their 
indemnification may be broader than the right of indemnification granted to 
directors.

The foregoing statements are specifically made subject to the detailed 
provisions of Section 33-770 et seq.

Notwithstanding the fact that Connecticut law obligates the Registrant to 
indemnify only a director that was successful on the merits in a suit, under 
Article III, Section 1 of the Registrant's bylaws, the Registrant must 
indemnify both directors and officers of the Registrant for (1) any claims 
and liabilities to which they become subject by reason of being or having 
been a director or officer of the company and legal and (2) other expenses 
incurred in defending against such claims, in each case, to the extent such 
is consistent with statutory provisions.

Additionally, the directors and officers of Hartford and Hartford Securities 
Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") are covered under a directors and officers 
liability insurance policy issued to The Hartford Financial Services Group, 
Inc. and its subsidiaries. Such policy will reimburse the Registrant for any 
payments that it shall make to directors and officers pursuant to law and 
will, subject to certain exclusions contained in the policy, further pay any 
other costs, charges and expenses and settlements and judgments arising from 
any proceeding involving any director or officer of the Registrant in his 
past or present capacity as such, and for which he may be liable, except as 
to any liabilities arising from acts that are deemed to be uninsurable.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of 
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the 
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and 
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as 
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a 
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by 
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or 
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, 
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling 
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant 
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by 
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the 
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as 
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such 
issue.

RE: SEPARATE ACCOUNT FIVE
    ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
    FILE NO. 333-36349


Dear Sir/Madam:

     I have acted as General Counsel to ITT Hartford Life and Annuity 
Insurance Company (the "Company"), a Connecticut insurance company, and ITT 
Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company Separate Account Five (the 
"Account") in connection with the registration of an indefinite amount of 
securities in the form of modified single premium variable life insurance 
contracts  (the "Contracts") with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  I have examined such documents 
(including the Form S-6 Registration Statement) and reviewed such questions 
of law as I considered necessary and appropriate, and on the basis of such 
examination and review, it is my opinion that:

1.  The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing as a stock
    life insurance company under the laws of the State of Connecticut and is
    duly authorized by the Insurance Department of the State of Connecticut to
    issue the Contracts.

2.  The Account is a duly authorized and validly existing separate account
    established pursuant to the provisions of Section 38a-433 of the
    Connecticut Statutes.

3.  To the extent so provided under the Contracts, that portion of the assets
    of the Account equal to the reserves and other contract liabilities with
    respect to the Account will not be chargeable with liabilities arising out
    of any other business that the Company may conduct.

Very truly yours,
