This Prospectus describes Putnam Hartford Capital Manager Variable Life, a 
modified single premium variable life insurance policy ("Policy" or 
"Policies") offered by Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company 
("Hartford") to applicants age 90 and under. The Policy lets 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 43.
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 the Putnam Money Market Sub-Account. 
After the Right to Cancel Period has expired, the amounts allocated will be 
transferred to the Funds specified in the Policy Owner's application. The 
underlying investment options (Funds) of Putnam Variable Trust currently 
available under the Policy are:

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 allocated to the Funds. The Policy continues in effect as
long as 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
a Policy. The 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.

IT MAY NOT BE ADVANTAGEOUS TO PURCHASE VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE AS A REPLACEMENT
FOR YOUR CURRENT LIFE INSURANCE OR IF YOU ALREADY OWN A VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE
POLICY.

THIS PROSPECTUS IS VALID ONLY IF ACCOMPANIED BY THE CURRENT PROSPECTUSES OF THE

CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

                                     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 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 30.

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 20 sub-accounts ("Sub-Accounts"), each investing exclusively in a Fund.
The investment objectives of the Funds are as set forth in "The Separate
Account," page 12. Applicants should read the Funds prospectuses accompanying
this Prospectus in connection with the purchase of a Policy.

The following table shows annual fund operating expenses for 1997:

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 

<PAGE>
                                       9


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 18, and "Policy Benefits and Rights --
Lapse and Reinstatement," page 29.

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 21.

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 10 Policy Years.
- -     an Unamortized Tax charge is imposed during the first 9 Policy Years on
      surrenders or partial surrenders according to the rate set forth in
      "Deductions and Charges- Policy Owner Options - Unamortized Tax Charge"
      Page 23.

      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 25, and "Federal Tax Considerations," page 43.

Applicants should review the Funds' prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus
for a

<PAGE>

                                       10


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 22.

For a discussion of the tax consequences of surrender of the Policy or a partial
surrender, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 43.

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 25.

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 25.

Policy Loans

A Policy Owner may obtain one or both 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 Cash Value. See "Policy Benefits and Rights - Policy Loans,"
page 27.

Lapse

A Policy may terminate if the Cash Surrender Value on any Monthly Activity Date
is less than the required 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 27, and "Lapse and Reinstatement," page 29.

Cancellation and Exchange Rights

A Policy Owner has a limited right to return the Policy for cancellation. If the
Policy Owner returns the Policy 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 

<PAGE>
                                       11


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 effect, 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 30.

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 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 43.

                                 THE COMPANY

   
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 and the
District of Columbia, except New York. Effective on January 1, 1998, Hartford's

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 underlying investment options for the Policies are shares of Class IA of the
Putnam Variable Trust, an open-end series investment company. The assets of each
Sub-Account of the Separate Account are invested exclusively in one of the
Funds. The underlying Funds corresponding to each Sub-Account and their
investment objectives are described below. Hartford reserves the right, subject
to compliance with the law, to close Funds or to offer additional funds with
differing investment objectives. There is no assurance that any of the Funds
will achieve its stated objectives. These Funds may not be available in all 
states.

to other open-end investment companies which are managed by Putnam Management
and whose shares are generally offered to the public. These other funds managed
by Putnam Management may, however, employ different investment practices and may
invest in securities different from those in which their counterpart Funds
invest, and consequently will not have identical portfolios or experience
identical investment results.
    

The Funds are available only to serve as the underlying investment for variable
annuity and variable life policies. A full description of the Funds, their
investment objectives, policies and restrictions, risks, charges and expenses
and other aspects of their operation are contained in the accompanying Fund's
prospectuses, which should be read in conjunction with this Prospectus before
investing, and in the Funds Statement of Additional Information which may be
ordered without charge from Putnam Investor Services, Inc.

It is conceivable that in the future it may be disadvantageous for variable
annuity separate accounts and variable life insurance separate accounts to
invest in the Funds simultaneously. Although Hartford and the Funds do not
currently foresee any such disadvantages either to variable annuity contract
owners or to variable life insurance policy owners, the Trust's Board of
Trustees intends to monitor events in order to identify any material conflicts
between such contract owners and policy owners and to determine what action, if
any, should be taken in response thereto. If the Fund's Board of Trustees were
to conclude that separate funds should be established for variable life and
variable annuity separate accounts, the variable life policy owners and the
variable 

<PAGE>
                                       16


annuity contract owners would not bear any expenses attendant upon establishment
of such separate funds.

Investment Adviser

Putnam Management, One Post Office Square, Boston, MA 02109, serves as the
investment manager for the Funds. An affiliate, Putnam Advisory Company, Inc.,
manages domestic and foreign institutional accounts and mutual funds. Another
affiliate, Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company, provides investment advice to
institutional clients under its banking and fiduciary policies. Putnam
Management and its affiliates are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Marsh & McLennan
Companies, Inc., a publicly owned holding company whose principal businesses are
international insurance brokerage and employee benefit consulting.

Subject to the general oversight of the Trust's Board of Trustees, Putnam
Management manages the Funds' portfolios in accordance with their stated
investment objectives and policies, makes investment decisions for the Funds,
places orders to purchase and sell securities on behalf of the Funds and
administers the affairs of the Funds. For its services, the Funds pay Putnam
Management a quarterly fee. See the accompanying Funds prospectuses for a more
complete description of Putnam Management and the respective fees of the Funds.

                                  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 

<PAGE>
                                       17


receives the initial payment with the application, Hartford will provide fixed
conditional insurance during underwriting according to the terms of a
conditional receipt. 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 at Hartford's Home Office, Hartford will allocate the entire 
premium to the Putnam Money Market Sub-Account. After the expiration of the 
right to cancel period, the Account Value in the Putnam Money Market 
Sub-Account 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 the Putnam Money 
Market Sub-Account) is 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 
    
<PAGE>
                                       18


particular Sub-Account next computed after receipt of the premium 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 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 25.

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 29.

The Policy Owner may elect one of two options offered by Hartford to pay the
Mortality 

<PAGE>
                                       19


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.

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
Policies eligible for simplified underwriting, standard risks have a guaranteed
cost of insurance of 125% of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary
Smoker/Non-Smoker Mortality Table through age 90, grading down to 100% of the
1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Smoker/Non-Smoker Mortality Table at age
100 (age last birthday). For Policies not eligible for simplified underwriting,
standard risks have a guaranteed cost of insurance of 100% of the 1980
Commissioners Standard Ordinary Smoker/Non-Smoker Mortality Table. (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.

<PAGE>
                                       21


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 25.)

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. 

<PAGE>
                                       22

   
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 not exceed the cost Hartford incurs in providing
administrative services under the Policies. Hartford reserves the right to 
waive the Annual Maintenance Fee under certain conditions.
    
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 28.

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 

<PAGE>
                                       23


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 the 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 cost 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 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:

   POLICY
    YEAR                   RATE
    ----                   ----
      1                    2.25%
      2                    2.00%
      3                    1.75%
      4                    1.50%
      5                    1.25%
      6                    1.00%
      7                    0.75%
      8                    0.50%
      9                    0.25%
      10+                  0.00%
 
After the ninth Policy Year, no Unamortized Tax charge will be imposed.

      OPTION 2: FRONTED CHARGES: Under this option, the Policy Owner will pay:

<PAGE>
                                       24


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 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 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 the Fund shares reflects investment advisory fees and
administrative expenses already deducted from the assets of the Funds. These
charges are described in the Funds' prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus.

<PAGE>
                                       25

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 under the Policy 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:

                                                  A                   B
                                                  -                   -
   Face Amount:                               $100,000            $100,000
   Insured's Age:                                   40                  40
   Account Value on Date of Death:              46,500              34,000
   Specified Percentage                            250%                250%

   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 - Settlement Provisions," page 32.
    

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 

<PAGE>
                                       26


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 18.

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 a confirmation of the
transfer within five 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 30 days.
    

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. 

<PAGE>

                                       27

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 Code 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 

<PAGE>
                                       28


period must be repaid before the Policy will be reinstated. See "Policy Benefits
and Rights -- Lapse and Reinstatement," page 29.

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 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
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 43.

   
If the Policy Owner chooses to apply the surrender proceeds to a payment option
(see "Other Matters -- Settlement Provisions," page 32), 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 any applicable Surrender Charge.
    

<PAGE>
                                       29


Partial Surrenders

While the Policy is in force, a Policy Owner may elect, by written request, to
make partial surrenders from the Cash Surrender Value. The Cash Surrender Value,
after a 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 withdrawal 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 withdrawal. Partial surrenders in excess of the Annual Withdrawal Amount
will be subject to the Surrender Charge and any Unamortized Tax charges. See
"Deductions and Charges - Surrender Charge," page 22. For a discussion of the
tax consequences of partial surrenders, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page
43.

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 43.)

Lapse and Reinstatement

The Policy will remain in effect 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 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 payment is
forthcoming 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 25.

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.

<PAGE>
                                       30


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 cancelled 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 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.

Once the Policy is in force, 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 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 50.

2. To qualify for simplified underwriting under a last survivor policy, both
Insureds 

<PAGE>
                                       31


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 43.


                                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 27) will not be considered in
determining the voting interests of the Policy Owner. Policy Owners should
review the Funds prospectuses 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 

<PAGE>
                                       32


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 payment 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.

   
Settlement Provisions
    

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 

<PAGE>
                                       33


are permitted after payments commence. Full surrender or partial surrenders may
be made from payment Options 1 or 6, but they are subject to the 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

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 option, you may, at any time, request a full
surrender and receive, within seven days, the termination value of the Policy 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: Policy Proceeds Settlement Option
    

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 surrenders 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 Policy
contains variable payment annuity tables derived from the 1983(a) 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 

<PAGE>
                                       35


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.

   
Broker-dealers or financial institutions are compensated according to a schedule
set forth by HSD and any applicable rules or regulations for variable insurance
compensation. Compensation is generally based on premium payments made by
policyholders or contract owners. This compensation is usually paid from the
sales charges described in this Prospectus.

In addition, a broker-dealer or financial institution may also receive
additional compensation for, among other things, training, marketing or other
services provided. HSD, its affiliates or Hartford may also make compensation
arrangements with certain broker-dealers or financial institutions based on
total sales by the broker-dealer or financial institution of insurance products.
These payments, which may be different for different broker-dealers or financial
institutions, will be made by HSD, its affiliates or Hartford out of their own
assets and will not effect the amounts paid by the policyholders or contract
owners to purchase, hold or surrender variable insurance products.
    

Hartford may provide information on various topics to Policy Owners and
prospective Policy 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 

<PAGE>
                                       42


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 these Policies 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," on page 25). 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 Policies should be treated as life
insurance contracts under Section 7702 of the Code. The death benefit under a
life insurance contract is generally excluded from the gross income of the
beneficiary. Also, a life insurance Policy Owner is generally not taxed on
increments in the contract value
    

<PAGE>
                                       44


   
until the Policy is 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 fifteen 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 contract 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 contract
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 contract is
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 Contract will meet the Section 7702 definition of a life
insurance contract.
    

Modified Endowment Contracts

   
A life insurance contract 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 contract for federal income tax purposes. However, an
exchange under Section 1035 of the Code of a life insurance contract issued
before June 21, 1988 will not cause the new Policy to be treated as a modified
endowment contract if no additional premiums are paid and there is no change in
the death benefit as the result of the exchange.
    

<PAGE>
                                       45


   
A contract that is classified as modified endowment contract 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 contract during the life of the Insured will
be taxed to the extent of any accumulated income in the contract (generally, the
excess of account value over premiums paid). Amounts that are taxable
withdrawals 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 contract 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.

The federal estate tax is integrated with the federal gift tax under a unified
rate schedule and unified credit which shelters up to $625,000 (1998) from the
estate and gift tax. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 gradually raises the credit
over the next eight years to $1,000,000. 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 contract (other
than a pension plan policy) will not be treated as a life insurance contract for
any period
    

<PAGE>
                                       46


   
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 contract,
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 contract 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 contracts 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 contract to qualify for tax deferral,
assets in the segregated asset accounts supporting the variable contract must be
considered to be owned by the insurance company and not by the variable contract
owner. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has issued several rulings which
discuss investor control. The IRS has ruled that certain incidents of ownership
by the contract owner, such as the ability to select and control investments in
a separate account, will cause the contract 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 treated as the owner of the assets in the
account." The explanation further

<PAGE>
                                       47


   
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 contract."
The final regulations issued under Section 817 did 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 contracts, as necessary, to
prevent Policy Owners from being considered the owners of the assets in the
separate accounts.
    

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

   
In certain circumstances, the Code limits the application of specific tax
advantages to individual owners of life insurance contracts. Prospective Policy
Owners which are not individuals should consult a qualified tax adviser to
determine the potential impact on the purchaser.
    

<PAGE>

                                       48

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, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of
Hartford.

                                   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 0.75% 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 0.75% average daily charge) of -0.75%, 5.25% and
11.25%, 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
25).

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.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company Putnam Capital
Manager Trust Separate Account Five and to the Owners of Units of
Interest therein:
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of ITT
Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company Putnam Capital Manager Trust
Separate Account Five (the Account) as of December 31, 1997, and the related
statement of operations for the year then ended and statements of changes in net
assets for the each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 1997.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Account's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of ITT Hartford Life and Annuity
Insurance Company Putnam Capital Manager Trust Separate Account Five as of
December 31, 1997, the results of its operations for the year then ended and the
changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December
31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no federal
income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the Account.
 
    D) USE OF ESTIMATES--The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in the future could
vary from the amounts derived from management's estimates.
 
 3. ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND
   RELATED CHARGES:
 
    In accordance with the terms of the contracts, the Company makes deductions
for mortality and expense undertakings, cost of insurance, administrative fees,
and state premium taxes. These charges are deducted through termination of units
of interest from applicable contract owners' accounts, in accordance with the
terms of the contracts.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors of ITT Hartford Life
and Annuity Insurance Company:
 
We have audited the accompanying statutory 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,
1997 and 1996, and the related statutory statements of income, changes in
capital and surplus, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
statutory 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 financial
statements. When statutory 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 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, 1997 and 1996, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of three years in the
period ended December 31, 1997.
 
However, in our opinion, the statutory financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company
as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997 in
conformity with statutory accounting practices as described in Note 1.

                ITT HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
                    NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               DECEMBER 31, 1997
                 (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. ("HLI"), which is majority owned by The Hartford Financial
Services Group, Inc. ("The Hartford"), formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of ITT
Corporation ("ITT"). On February 10, 1997, HLI filed a registration statement,
as amended, with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the initial
public offering of HLI Class A Common Stock (the "Offering"). Pursuant to the
Offering on May 22, 1997, HLI sold to the public 26 million shares, representing
18.6% of the equity ownership of HLI. 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 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. The most significant estimates are
for determining the liability for aggregate reserves for future benefits and the
liability for premium and other deposit funds. Although some variability is
inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts provided are
adequate.
 
    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, for universal life policies and
    investment products, generally, 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 recorded upon adoption of the applicable standard;
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
(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 bonds were classified on a GAAP basis
    as "available-for-sale" and accordingly, those investments and common stocks
    were reflected at fair value with the corresponding impact included as a
    component of Stockholder's Equity designated as "Net unrealized capital
    gains (losses) on securities net of tax". For statutory reporting purposes,
    Change in Net Unrealized Capital Gains (Losses) on Common Stocks and Other
    Invested Assets includes the change in unrealized gains (losses) 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, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the
significant differences between statutory and GAAP basis net income and capital
and surplus for the Company are summarized as follows:

</TABLE>
 
AGGREGATE RESERVES FOR FUTURE BENEFITS AND LIABILITY 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 6%. 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 Statements of
Income.
 
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 fair value with the current year change in the
difference from cost reflected in surplus. Other invested assets are generally
recorded at fair value.
 
    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 increased by $6,228 in 1997,
decreased by $568 in 1996 and increased by $5,588 in 1995. Additionally, the
Interest Maintenance Reserve
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
("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 Statements of Income. Realized investment gains and losses are
determined on a specific identification basis. The amount of net capital losses
reclassified from the IMR was $719 in 1997 and the amount of net capital gains
reclassified was $1,413 and $39 in 1996 and 1995, respectively. The amount of
income amortized was $85, $392 and $256 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
 
OTHER LIABILITIES
    The amount reflected in other liabilities includes a receivable from the
separate accounts of $923 million and $640 million as of December 31, 1997 and
1996, respectively. The balances are classified in accordance with NAIC
accounting practices.
 
MORTGAGE LOANS
    Mortgage loans, carried at cost, which approximates fair value, include
investments in assets backed by mortgage loan pools.

 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. The Company has also invested in bonds
of its subsidiaries, Hartford Financial Services Corporation and HL Investment
Advisors, Inc., and common stock of its subsidiary, ITT Hartford Life, LTD.
 
    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 HLI, 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 (received) paid by the Company were $(14,499), $29,792 and
$215,921 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The effective tax rate was (26)%,
22% and 25% in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The following schedule
provides a reconciliation of the tax provision at the U.S. Federal Statutory
rate to Federal income tax (benefit) 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 1997 or
1996. 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
<PAGE>
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
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
$265, $358, and $1,034 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, 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 1997, 1996 and 1995.
 
    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 8.5% for 1997, 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
1997, 1996 and 1995.
 
    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 1997, 1996 and 1995.
 
 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 cedes to RGA Reinsurance Company, on a modified coinsurance
basis, 80% of the variable annuity business written since 1994.
 
 8. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS:
 
    The Company maintains separate account assets and liabilities totaling $23.2
billion and $14.6 billion at December 31, 1997 and 1996, 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 $252 million, $144
million and $72 million in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and are recorded
as a component of other revenues on the Statutory Statements of Income.
 
 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
 
    As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, 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 $1,544, $1,262 and $1,684 in 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. ILA incurred guaranteed fund expense of $548 in 1997 and 1996 and
$0 in 1995.

                    REPRESENTATION OF REASONABLENESS OF FEES

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.
ss. 33-771(a). Additionally, pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat. ss. 33-776, the
Registrant may indemnify officers and employees or agents for liability incurred
and for any expenses to which they becomes subject by reason of being or having
been an employees or officers 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 


<PAGE>

Section 33-770 et seq.

Notwithstanding the fact that Connecticut law obligates the Registrant to
indemnify a only a director that was successful on the merits in a suit, under
Article VIII, 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
directors or officers 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
      HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
      FILE NO. 333-36367

Dear Sir/Madam:

I have acted as General Counsel to Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company
(the "Company"), a Connecticut insurance company, and 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.

4.    The Contracts, when issued as contemplated by the Form S-6 Registration
      Statement, will constitute legal, validly issued and binding obligations
      of the Company.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Form S-6
Registration Statement for the Contracts and the Account.

Sincerely,

/s/ Lynda Godkin

Lynda Godkin

April 8, 1998


Securities and Exchange Commission
450 Fifth Street, N.W.
Washington, D.C.  20549

Dear Sir:

This opinion is furnished in connection with the Form S-6 Registration Statement
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), of a certain
modified single premium variable life insurance policy (the "Policy") that will
be offered and sold by Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company and certain
units of interest to be issued in connection with the Policy.

The hypothetical illustrations of the Policy used in the Form S-6 Registration
Statement accurately reflect reasonable estimates of projected performance of
the Policy under the stipulated rates of investment return, the contractual
expense deductions and guaranteed cost-of-insurance rates, and utilizes a
reasonable estimation for expected fund operating expenses.

I hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Form S-6
Registration Statement and to the reference to my name under the heading
"Experts" in the Prospectus included as a part of such Form S-6 Registration
Statement.

Very truly yours,


/s/ Michael Winterfield
