This Prospectus describes information you should know before you purchase Select
Dimensions Life. Please read it carefully.

Select Dimensions Life is a modified single premium variable life insurance
policy. It is:

x  Modified single premium, because you make one single premium payment, and
   under certain limited circumstances, you may make additional premium
   payments.

x  Variable, because the value of your life insurance policy will fluctuate with
   the performance of the underlying portfolios.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At purchase, you allocate your payments to "Sub-Accounts" or subdivisions of our
Separate Account, an account that keeps your life insurance policy assets
separate from our company assets. These Sub-Accounts then purchase shares of
mutual funds set up exclusively for variable annuity or variable life insurance
products. These Portfolios are not the same mutual funds that you buy through
your stockbroker or through a retail mutual fund. They may have similar
investment strategies and the same portfolio managers as retail mutual funds.
This life insurance policy offers you Portfolios with investment strategies
ranging from conservative to aggressive and you may pick those Portfolios that
meet your investment style.

SUMMARY OF BENEFITS AND RISKS

BENEFITS OF YOUR POLICY

FLEXIBILITY -- The policy is designed to be flexible to meet your specific life
insurance needs. You have the flexibility to choose your premium payment,
settlement options and investment options.

RIGHT TO EXAMINE -- For a limited time, usually 10 days after you receive your
life insurance policy, you may cancel it without paying a surrender charge. A
longer period may be provided in certain states.

CASH VALUES -- Your policy has a cash value. The value of your policy will
fluctuate with the performance of the underlying portfolios.

DEATH BENEFIT -- You designate a beneficiary who will receive the Death Benefit
if you die while the policy is in force. The policy pays a minimum Death
Benefit, called the "Face Amount." The actual Death Benefit may be larger than
the Face Amount if the underlying portfolios of the policy perform well.

INVESTMENT OPTIONS -- Your policy offers a choice of investment options. You may
transfer money among your investment options, subject to the restrictions
described in this prospectus and the funds' prospectuses.

SURRENDERS -- At any time, you may surrender all or part of your policy. Each
year you may surrender the greater of up to 10% of your premium payments or 100%
of your Account Value minus premiums paid without being charged a surrender
charge. (See "Risks of Your Policy" below)

LOANS -- You can take a loan on the policy. Your policy provides for two types
of cash loans. Your policy secures the loans. Loans may not exceed 90% of the
policy's cash value.

SETTLEMENT OPTIONS -- You may choose to receive surrender or death benefit
proceeds over a period of time by using one of our settlement options.

WHAT DOES YOUR PREMIUM PAYMENT PAY FOR?

Your premium payment pays for insurance coverage, it acts as an investment in
the Sub-Accounts, and it pays for sales charges, premium taxes and
administrative fees.

RISKS OF YOUR POLICY

INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE -- The value of your policy will fluctuate with the
performance of its underlying portfolios. Your investment options may decline in
value, or they may not perform to your expectations. Your policy values in the
Sub-Accounts are not guaranteed.


UNSUITABLE FOR SHORT-TERM SAVINGS -- The policy is designed for long-term
financial planning. You should not purchase the policy if you will need your
premium payment in a short time.


RISK OF LAPSE -- Your policy could terminate if the value of the policy becomes
so low that it cannot support the policy's monthly charges and fees. If this
occurs, we will notify you in writing. You will then have a 61-day grace period
to pay additional amounts to prevent the policy from terminating.

LOANS -- Taking a loan from your policy may increase the risk that your policy
will terminate, may have a permanent effect on the policy's Account Value, and
may reduce the death benefit proceeds.

SURRENDER AND PARTIAL SURRENDERS -- You may have to pay tax on the money you
take out and, if you take money out before you are 59 1/2 you may have to pay a
federal income tax penalty.

TRANSFER LIMITATIONS -- We reserve the right to limit the size of transfers and
to limit the number and frequency of transfers among your investment options.

ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCES -- Under current tax law, your Beneficiaries will
receive the Death Benefit free of federal income tax. However, you may be
required to pay federal income tax if you receive any loans, surrenders or other
amounts from the policy, and you may also be subject to a 10% federal income
penalty tax if you take money out prior to age 59 1/2.

(2) With respect to the Mid-Cap Equity Portfolio, the expense information shown
    in the table above has been restated to reflect the current fees. Prior to
    December 31, 1999, the investment adviser, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
    Advisors Inc., assumed all expenses of the Portfolio and waived the
    compensation provided for the Portfolio in its management agreement with the
    Fund.



(3) With respect to the High Yield, Mid-Cap Value, Emerging Markets Debt,
    Emerging Markets Equity, Active International Allocation and Fixed Income
    Portfolios, the investment advisers have voluntarily agreed to waive their
    investment advisory fees and to reimburse certain expenses of the Portfolios
    if such fees would cause their respective "Total Fund Operating Expenses" to
    exceed certain limits. The annual expense ratios for the Active
    International Allocation Portfolio are annualized estimates. Including these

SEPARATE ACCOUNT FIVE

The Sub-Accounts are subdivisions of our separate account, called Separate
Account Five. The Separate Account was established to keep your life insurance
policy assets separate from our company assets. The investment performance of
the Separate Account is independent from the investment performance of
Hartford's other assets. Hartford's other assets are utilized to pay our
insurance obligations under the policy. Your assets in the Separate Account are
held exclusively for your benefit and the benefit of other policy owners and may
not be used for any other liability of Hartford. Separate Account Five was
established on August 17, 1994 under the laws of Connecticut.


THE FUNDS



The underlying investment for the Contracts are shares of the portfolios of
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Select Dimensions Investment Series, The Universal
Institutional Funds, Inc., and Van Kampen Life Investment Trust, all open-ended
management investment companies. The underlying portfolios corresponding to each
Sub-Account and their investment objectives are described below. Hartford
reserves the right, subject to compliance with the law, to offer additional
portfolios with differing investment objectives. The portfolios may not be
available in all states.



We do not guarantee the investment results of any of the underlying portfolios.
Since each underlying portfolio has different investment objectives, each is
subject to different risks. These risks and the portfolio's expenses are more
fully described in the accompanying Funds' prospectuses and the Statements of
Additional Information. The Funds' prospectuses should be read in conjunction
with this Prospectus before investing.



MORGAN STANLEY DEAN WITTER SELECT DIMENSIONS INVESTMENT SERIES:



MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO -- Seeks high current income, preservation of capital and
liquidity by investing in the following money market instruments: U.S.
Government securities, obligations of U.S. regulated banks and savings
institutions having total assets of more than $1 billion, or less than $1
billion if such are fully federally insured as to principal (the interest may
not be insured), repurchase agreements and high grade corporate debt obligations
maturing in thirteen months or less.



NORTH AMERICAN GOVERNMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO (EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER 7, 1999,
CLOSED TO NEW INVESTMENTS OR TRANSFERS OF EXISTING CONTRACT VALUES) -- Seeks to
earn a high level of current income while maintaining relatively low volatility
of principal, by investing primarily in investment grade fixed-income securities
issued or guaranteed by the U.S., Canadian or Mexican governments.



DIVERSIFIED INCOME PORTFOLIO -- Seeks, as a primary objective, to earn a high
level of current income and, as a secondary objective, to maximize total return,
but only to the extent consistent with its primary objective, by equally
allocating its assets among three separate groupings of fixed-income securities.
Up to one-third of the securities in which the Diversified Income Portfolio may
invest will include securities rated Baa/BBB or lower. See the Special
Considerations for investments for high yield securities disclosed in the Fund's
prospectus.



BALANCED GROWTH PORTFOLIO -- Seeks to provide capital growth with reasonable
current income by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 60% of its
total assets in a diversified portfolio of common stocks of companies which have
a record of paying dividends and, in the opinion of the Investment Manager, have
the potential for increasing dividends and in securities convertible into common
stock, and at least 25% of its total assets in investment grade fixed-income
(fixed-rate and adjustable-rate) securities such as corporate notes and bonds
and obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies and
its instrumentalities.



UTILITIES PORTFOLIO -- Seeks to provide both capital appreciation and current
income.



DIVIDEND GROWTH PORTFOLIO -- Seeks to provide reasonable current income and
long-term growth of income and capital by investing primarily in common stock of
companies with a record of paying dividends and the potential for increasing
dividends.



VALUE-ADDED MARKET PORTFOLIO -- Seeks to achieve a high level of total return on
its assets through a combination of capital appreciation and current income, by
investing, on an equally-weighted basis, in a diversified portfolio of common
stocks of the

<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                                    9
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

companies which are represented in the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock
Price Index.



GROWTH PORTFOLIO -- Seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in
common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks issued by domestic
and foreign companies.



AMERICAN OPPORTUNITIES PORTFOLIO (FORMERLY NAMED AMERICAN VALUE
PORTFOLIO) -- Seeks long-term capital growth consistent with an effort to reduce
volatility, by investing principally in common stock of companies in industries
which, at the time of the investment, are believed to be attractively valued
given their above average relative earnings growth potential at that time.



MID-CAP EQUITY PORTFOLIO (FORMERLY NAMED MID-CAP GROWTH PORTFOLIO) -- Seeks
long-term capital growth by investing primarily in equity securities of medium
sized companies (that is, companies whose equity market capitalization falls
within the range of companies comprising the S&P 400 Index).



GLOBAL EQUITY PORTFOLIO -- Seeks to obtain total return on its assets primarily
through long-term capital growth and, to a lesser extent, from income, through
investments in all types of common stocks and equivalents (such as convertible
securities and warrants), preferred stocks and bonds and other debt obligations
of domestic and foreign companies, governments and international organizations.



DEVELOPING GROWTH PORTFOLIO -- Seeks long-term capital growth by investing
primarily in common stocks of smaller and medium-sized companies that, in the
opinion of the Investment Manager, have the potential for growing more rapidly
than the economy and which may benefit from new products or services,
technological developments or changes in management.



EMERGING MARKETS PORTFOLIO (EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER 7, 1999, CLOSED TO NEW
INVESTMENTS OR TRANSFERS OF EXISTING CONTRACT VALUES) -- Seeks long-term capital
appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies in
emerging market countries. The Emerging Markets Portfolio may invest up to 35%
of its total assets in high risk fixed-income securities that are rated below
investment grade or are unrated (commonly referred to as "junk bonds"). See the
Special Considerations for investments in high yield securities disclosed in the
Fund's prospectus.



THE UNIVERSAL INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS, INC.:



HIGH YIELD PORTFOLIO -- Seeks above-average total return over a market cycle of
three to five years by investing primarily in high yield securities (commonly
referred to as "junk bonds"). The Portfolio also may invest in investment grade
fixed income securities, including U.S. Government securities, corporate bonds
and mortgage securities. The Portfolio may invest to a limited extent in foreign
fixed income securities, including emerging market securities. The Investment
Adviser may use futures, swaps and other types of derivatives in managing the
Portfolio.



MID CAP VALUE PORTFOLIO -- Seeks above-average total return over a market cycle
of three to five years by investing in common stocks of companies with
capitalizations in the range of companies included in the S&P MidCap 400 Index
(currently $500 million to $6 billion). The Portfolio purchases stocks that
typically do not pay dividends. The Investment Adviser analyzes securities to
identify stocks that are undervalued, and measures the relative attractiveness
of the Portfolio's current holdings against potential purchases.



EMERGING MARKETS DEBT PORTFOLIO -- Seeks high total return by investing
primarily in fixed income securities of government and government-related
issuers and, to a lesser extent, of corporate issuers located in emerging market
countries. The Investment Adviser seeks high total return by investing in a
portfolio of emerging market debt that offers low correlation to many other
asset classes. Using macroeconomic and fundamental analysis, the Investment
Adviser seeks to identify developing countries that are undervalued and have
attractive or improving fundamentals. After the country allocation is
determined, the sector and security selection is made within each county.



EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY PORTFOLIO -- Seeks long-term capital appreciation by
investing primarily in equity securities of issuers in emerging market
countries. The Investment Adviser seeks to maximize returns by investing in
growth-oriented equity securities in emerging markets. The Investment Adviser's
investment approach combines top-down country allocation with bottom-up stock
selection. Investment selection criteria include attractive growth
characteristics, reasonable valuations and managements with a strong shareholder
value orientation.



FIXED INCOME PORTFOLIO -- Seeks above-average total return over a market cycle
of three to five years by investing primarily in a diversified mix of dollar
denominated investment grade fixed income securities, particularly U.S.
Government, corporate and mortgage securities. The Portfolio ordinarily will
maintain an average weighted maturity in excess of five years. The Portfolio may
invest opportunistically in non-dollar denominated securities and below
investment grade securities; and it may use futures, swaps and other types of
derivatives in managing the Portfolio.



ACTIVE INTERNATIONAL ALLOCATION PORTFOLIO -- Seeks long-term capital
appreciation by investing primarily in accordance with country and sector
weightings determined by the investment adviser in equity securities of non-U.S.
issuers which, in the aggregate, replicate broad-market indices. The Investment
Adviser seeks to maintain a diversified portfolio of international equity
securities based on a top-down approach that emphasizes country and sector
selection and weighting rather than individual stock selection. The Investment
Adviser capitalizes on the significance of country and sector selection in
international equity portfolio returns by over and underweighting countries
based on three factors: (i) valuation; (ii) fundamental change; and
(iii) short-term market momentum/technicals.



VAN KAMPEN LIFE INVESTMENT TRUST:



STRATEGIC STOCK PORTFOLIO -- Seeks an above average total return through a
combination of potential capital appreciation

<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and dividend income, consistent with the preservation of invested capital. Under
normal market conditions, the Portfolio's investment adviser seeks to achieve
the investment objectives by investing in a portfolio of high dividend yielding
equity securities of companies included in the Dow Jones Industrial Average or
in the Morgan Stanley Capital International USA Index.



ENTERPRISE PORTFOLIO -- Seeks capital appreciation through investments in
securities believed by the Portfolio's investment adviser to have above average
potential for capital appreciation.

MIXED AND SHARED FUNDING -- Shares of the Portfolios may be sold to our other
separate accounts and our insurance company affiliates or other unaffiliated
insurance companies to serve as the underlying investment for both variable
annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, a practice known as
"mixed and shared funding." As a result, there is a possibility that a material
conflict may arise between the interests of policy owners, owners of other
policies or owners of variable annuity contracts with values allocated to one or
more of these other separate accounts investing in any one of the Portfolios. In
the event of any such material conflicts, we will consider what action may be
appropriate, including removing the Portfolios from the Separate Account or
replacing the Portfolio with another underlying Portfolio. There are certain
risks associated with mixed and shared funding, as disclosed in the Funds'
prospectus.


* On December 1, 1998, Morgan Stanley Asset Management Inc. changed its name to
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Investment Management Inc. but continues to do
business in certain instances using the name Morgan Stanley Asset Management.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VOTING RIGHTS -- We are the legal owners of all Portfolio shares held in the
Separate Account and we have the right to vote at the Portfolio's shareholder
meetings. To the extent required by federal securities laws or regulations, we
will:

- - Notify you of any Portfolio shareholders' meeting if the shares held for your
  policy may be voted.

- - Send proxy materials and a form of instructions that you can use to tell us
  how to vote the Portfolio shares held for your policy.

- - Arrange for the handling and tallying of proxies received from policy owners.

- - Vote all Portfolio shares attributable to your policy according to
  instructions received from you, and

- - Vote all Portfolio shares for which no voting instructions are received in the
  same proportion as shares for which instructions have been received.

If any federal securities laws or regulations, or their present interpretation,
change to permit us to vote Portfolio shares on our own, we may decide to do so.
You may attend any Shareholder Meeting at which shares held for your policy may
be voted. After we begin to make annuity payouts to you, the number of votes you
have will decrease.


ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES -- Hartford has entered into agreements with the
investment advisers or distributors of many of the Funds. Under the terms of
these agreements, Hartford provides administrative services and the Funds pay a
fee to Hartford that is usually based on an annual percentage of the average
daily net assets of the Funds. These agreements may be different for each Fund
or each Fund family.


CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The deductions 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.

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 so 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
"Lapse and Reinstatement".

The deductions and charges associated with your policy are listed below.

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. The current cost
of insurance charge will not exceed the guaranteed cost of insurance charge. The
guaranteed cost of insurance charge is a guaranteed maximum monthly rate,
multiplied by the Coverage Amount on the Policy Date or any Monthly Activity
Date. A table of guaranteed maximum 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. For standard risks, the guaranteed maximum cost
of insurance rate is 100% of the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary
Unismoker, Sex Distinct Age Last Birthday Mortality Table (1980 CSO Table).
Substandard risks will be assessed a higher guaranteed maximum cost of insurance
rate that will not exceed rates based on a multiple of the 1980 CSO Table. The
multiple will be based on the Insured's substandard rating. Unisex rates may be
required in some states.


Your Coverage Amount is first set on the date we issue your policy and then on
each Monthly Activity Date. The Coverage Amount is the Death Benefit minus the
Account Value. There is a Minimum Coverage Amount. It 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 = $30,000
Insured's attained age = 40
Minimum Coverage Amount percentage for age 40 = 150%

On the Monthly Activity Date, the Coverage Amount is $70,000. This is calculated
by subtracting the Account Value on the Monthly Activity Date ($30,000) 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 $45,000 (150% of $30,000). Since $45,000 is less than the
Face Amount less the Account Value ($70,000), no adjustment is necessary.
Therefore, the Coverage Amount will be $70,000.

Assume that the Account Value in the above example was $50,000. The Minimum
Coverage Amount would be $75,000 (150% of $50,000). Since this is greater than
the Face Amount
<PAGE>
12                                    HARTFORD LIFE AN ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
less the Account Value ($50,000), the Coverage Amount for the Policy Month is
$75,000. (For an explanation of the Death Benefit, see "Death Benefit and Policy
Values".)

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.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE -- For assuming mortality and expense risks
under the policy, we deduct monthly from Sub-Account Value a charge equal to an
annual rate of 0.90%. The mortality and expense risk charge is broken into
charges for mortality risks and for expense risks:

MORTALITY RISK -- The mortality risk we assume is that the cost of insurance
charges specified in the policy will be insufficient to pay claims. We also
assume a risk that the Death Proceeds will exceed: (1) the Coverage Amount on
the date of death; and (2) your policy's Account Value on the date we receive
written notice of death.

EXPENSE RISK -- The expense risk we assume is that expenses we incur in issuing
and administering your policy will exceed the administrative charges.

We may profit from the mortality and expense risk charge and may use any profits
for any proper purpose, including any difference between the cost we incur 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 settlement option.

TAX EXPENSE CHARGE -- During the first ten years of your policy, we deduct a
monthly charge equal to an annual rate of 0.40% from your Account Value. This
tax expense charge compensates us for certain expenses including:

- - Premium taxes imposed by various states and local jurisdictions.

A premium tax deduction of 0.25% of the Account Value is deducted over ten
Policy Years and approximates our 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, we do not expect to make
a profit from this deduction.

- - The cost of the capitalization of certain policy acquisition expenses under
  Section 848 of the Internal Revenue Code.

During your first ten Policy Years, we deduct a charge of 0.15% of Account
Value. This charge helps reimburse us for the approximate expenses we incur from
federal taxes we pay under Section 848 of the Internal Revenue Code.

UNAMORTIZED TAX CHARGE -- During, the first nine Policy Years, an Unamortized
Tax charge is imposed on surrender or partial surrenders. The Unamortized Tax
charge is shown below, as a percentage of amount surrendered, during each Policy
Year:

<TABLE>

- ---------------------
 10+          0.00%
- ---------------------
</TABLE>

After the ninth Policy Year, no Unamortized Tax charge will be imposed.

ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE -- The annual maintenance fee is a flat fee that is
deducted from your Account Value to reimburse us for expenses relating to the
maintenance of the policy. The annual $30 charge is deducted on a Policy
Anniversary or when the policy is fully surrendered if the Account Value at
either of those times is less than $50,000. We reserve the right to waive the
annual maintenance fee under other conditions.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE -- We will deduct a monthly administrative charge from
Sub-Account Value equal to an annual rate of 0.40%. This charge compensates us
for expenses incurred in the administration of the Separate Account and the
policy.

SURRENDER CHARGE -- We may charge you a Surrender Charge when you surrender
amounts invested in your policy. We assess a Surrender Charge on amounts
surrendered in any Policy Year that exceed the greater of 10% of the premiums
you have paid into your policy or 100% of your Account Value minus premiums
paid. If the amount you paid has been in your policy:

x  For Policy Years 1, 2 and 3, the charge is 7.5%.

x  For Policy Years 4 and 5, the charge is 6%.

x  For Policy Years 6 and 7, the charge is 4%.

x  For Policy Years 8 and 9, the charge is 2%.

x  For Policy Years 10 and beyond, the charge is 0%.

In determining the Surrender Charge, any surrender or partial surrender during
the first ten Policy Years will first come from premiums paid and then from
earnings. If an amount equal to all premiums paid has been withdrawn, no
Surrender Charge will be assessed on the remaining Account Value.

The Surrender Charge is imposed to cover a portion of the sales expense incurred
by us in distributing the Policies. This expense includes commissions,
advertising and the printing of prospectuses.

CHARGES AGAINST THE PORTFOLIOS -- The Separate Account purchases shares of the
Portfolios at net asset value. The net asset value of the Portfolio shares
reflects investment advisory fees and administrative expenses already deducted
from the assets of the Portfolios. These charges are described in the Funds'
prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus.

YOUR POLICY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

POLICY RIGHTS

POLICY OWNER, OR "YOU" -- As long as your policy is in force, you may exercise
all rights under the policy while the Insured is alive and a beneficiary has not
been irrevocably named.

BENEFICIARY -- You name the beneficiary in the application for the policy. You
may change the beneficiary (unless irrevocably named) during the Insured's
lifetime by written request to us. 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 -- You may assign your policy as collateral for a loan or other
obligation. Until you notify us in writing, we are not responsible for any
payment made or action taken. We are not responsible for the validity of any
assignment.

STATEMENTS TO POLICY OWNERS -- We will send you a statement at least once each
year, showing:

- - the current Account Value, Cash Surrender Value and Face Amount;

- - the premiums paid, monthly deduction amounts and any loans since your last
  statement;

- - the amount of any Indebtedness;

- - any notifications required by the provisions of your policy; and

- - any other information required by the Insurance Department of the state where
  your policy was delivered.

LIMIT ON RIGHT TO CONTEST -- During the Insured's lifetime, we may not contest
the validity of the policy after it has been in force for two years from the
date we issue the policy. 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 within two years from the date
we issue the policy, or such period as specified in state law, the benefit
payable will be limited to the Account Value minus 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.

POLICY LIMITATIONS

DIVIDENDS -- No dividends will be paid under the policy.

TRANSFERS OF ACCOUNT VALUE -- While the policy remains in force, and subject to
our transfer rules then in effect, you may request that part or all of the
Account Value of a particular Sub-Account be transferred to other Sub-Accounts.
We reserve the right to restrict the number of these 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 us toll free
1-800-231-5453. Transfers by telephone may be made by the agent of record or by
an attorney-in-fact pursuant to a power of attorney. Telephone transfers may not
be permitted in some states. Hartford, its agents or affiliates will not be
responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests reasonably
believed to be genuine. We will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that
instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. The procedures we follow for
transactions initiated by telephone include requirements that callers provide
certain information for identification purposes. All transfer instructions
received by telephone are tape-recorded. We will send you a confirmation of the
transfer within five days from the date of any transfer.

It is your responsibility to verify the accuracy of all confirmations and to
promptly advise us of any inaccuracies within 30 days of receipt.

CHANGES TO POLICY OR SEPARATE ACCOUNT

SUBSTITUTIONS, ADDITIONS, OR DELETIONS OF PORTFOLIOS -- We reserve the right,
subject to any applicable law, to make certain changes to the Portfolios offered
under your policy. We may, in our sole discretion, establish new Portfolios. New
Portfolios will be made available to existing policyholders as we determine
appropriate. We may also close one or more Portfolios to additional payments or
transfers from existing Sub-Accounts.

We reserve the right to eliminate the shares of any of the Portfolios for any
reason and to substitute shares of another registered investment company for the
shares of any Portfolio already purchased or to be purchased in the future by
the Separate Account. To the extent required by the Investment Company Act of
1940 (the "1940 Act"), substitutions of shares attributable to your interest in
a Portfolio will not be made until we have the approval of the Commission and we
have notified you of the change.

In the event of any change, we may, by appropriate endorsement, make any changes
in the policy necessary or appropriate to reflect the modification. If we decide
that it is in the best interest contracts owners, the Separate Account may be
operated as a management company under the 1940 Act or any other form permitted
by law, may be de-registered under the 1940 Act in the event such registration
is no longer required, or may be combined with one or more other Separate
Accounts.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SEPARATE ACCOUNT TAXES -- Currently, there is no charge for federal income taxes
that may be attributable to the Separate Account. However, we reserve the right
to make such a charge in the future. Charges for other taxes, if any,
attributable to the Separate Account may also be made.

OTHER BENEFITS OF YOUR POLICY

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 policy 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.

- - 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 "Statement of Additional
  Information."

- - To qualify for simplified underwriting under a last survivor policy, both
  Insureds must meet the simplified underwriting standards.

- - For a last survivor policy to be reinstated, both Insureds must be alive on
  the date of reinstatement.

- - The policy provisions regarding misstatement of age or sex, suicide and
  incontestability apply to either Insured.

- - The younger Insured's attained age is used to calculate the Minimum Death
  Benefit to ensure that the policy continues to qualify as life insurance.

- - Additional tax disclosures applicable to last survivor policies are provided
  in "Federal Tax Considerations."

PREMIUMS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

APPLICATION FOR A POLICY -- To purchase a policy you must submit an application
to us. A policy will be issued only on the lives of Insureds age 90 and under
who supply evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. Acceptance is subject to
our underwriting rules and we reserve the right to reject an application for any
reason. If your application for a policy is rejected, then your initial premium
payment will be returned along with an additional amount for interest, based on
the current rate being credited by us. Other than those described in this
prospectus, no change in the terms or conditions of a policy will be made
without your consent. Generally, the minimum initial premium we accept is
$10,000. We may accept less than $10,000 under certain circumstances.

Your policy is effective after we receive all outstanding delivery requirements
and receive your initial premium. The date your policy becomes effective is
called the Policy Date. This date is the date used to determine all future
cyclical transactions on your policy. The Policy Date may be prior to, or the
same as, the date your policy is issued ("Issue Date").

If your Coverage Amount is over then current limits established by us, we will
not accept your initial premium payment with your application. In other cases
where we receive the initial payment with the application, we will provide fixed
conditional insurance during underwriting according to the terms of conditional
receipt established by us. 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, then on policy delivery we will require a sufficient
payment to place the insurance in force.

PREMIUM PAYMENTS -- You pay a single premium and, subject to restrictions,
additional premiums. You may choose a minimum initial premium of 80%, 90% or
100% of the Guideline Single Premium (based on the Face Amount).

UNDERWRITING RULES OF YOUR POLICY
- - Under current underwriting rules, which are subject to change, if you are
  between ages 35 and 80, you may be eligible for simplified underwriting
  without a medical examination if you meet simplified underwriting standards.

- - If you are below age 35 or above age 80, or 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.

Your policy allows for additional premium payments so long as the additional
premiums 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. We may require evidence of insurability for any
additional premiums that increase the Coverage Amount. Premiums, which do not
meet the tax qualification guidelines for life insurance under the Internal
Revenue Code, will not be applied to your policy.

ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS -- Within three business days of receipt of your
completed application and your initial premium payment at our Home Office, we
allocate your entire premium payment to the Money Market Sub-Account.

We will then allocate the Account Value in the Money Market Sub-Account to the
Sub-Accounts according to the premium allocations you specify in your policy
application. The allocation is made upon the expiration of the right to examine
policy period, or the date we receive the final requirement to put the policy in
force, whichever is later.

ACCUMULATION UNITS -- The premiums you allocate to the Sub-Accounts are used to
purchase Accumulation Units in such
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                                   15
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub-Accounts. We determine the number of Accumulation Units of each Sub-Account
by dividing the amount of premium you have allocated to the Sub-Account by the
accumulation unit value of that particular Sub-Account.

ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES -- The accumulation unit value for each Sub-Account
varies to reflect the investment experience of the applicable underlying
Portfolio. To determine the current accumulation unit value, we take the prior
Valuation Day's accumulation unit value and multiply it by the Net Investment
Factor for the Valuation Period then ended.

The Net Investment Factor is used to measure the investment performance of a
Sub-Account from one Valuation Day to the next. The Net Investment Factor for
each Sub-Account equals:

- - The net asset value per share of each Portfolio held in the Sub-Account at the
  end of the current Valuation Period; divided by

- - The net asset value per share of each Portfolio held in the Sub-Account at the
  beginning of the Valuation Period.

You should refer to the Funds' prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus for a
description of how the assets of each Portfolio are valued, since these
determinations have a direct bearing on the Accumulation Unit Value of the
Sub-Account and therefore the Account Value of a policy.

All valuations in connection with a policy, will be made on the date your
request or payment is received by us before the close of the New York Stock
Exchange on any Valuation Day at our Home Office. Otherwise a valuation will be
made on the next date which is a Valuation Day.

ACCOUNT VALUE -- Each policy has an Account Value. There is no minimum
guaranteed Account Value. A policy's Account Value equals the policy's value in
all of the Sub-Accounts and any amounts in the Loan Account.

The Account Value of your policy is related to the net asset value of the
Portfolios to which your have allocated your premiums. The Account Value on any
Valuation Day is calculated by multiplying the number of Accumulation Units by
the Accumulation Unit Value and then totaling the results for all the
Sub-Accounts. The Account Value of a policy changes on a daily basis and is
computed on each Valuation Day. Therefore, your Account Value varies to reflect
the investment performance of the underlying Portfolios, the value of the Loan
Account and the monthly Deduction Amounts.

SUSPENSION OF VALUATION, PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS -- We will suspend all
procedures requiring valuation (including transfers, surrenders and loans) when:

- - the New York Stock Exchange is closed;

- - trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted by the SEC;

- - the SEC permits and orders postponement; or

- - the SEC determines that an emergency exists to restrict valuation.

DEATH BENEFITS AND POLICY VALUES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DEATH BENEFIT -- While in force, your policy provides for the payment of the
Death Proceeds to the beneficiary when the Insured under the policy dies. You
must notify us in writing as soon as possible after the death of the Insured.
The Death Proceeds payable to the beneficiary equal the Death Benefit less any
loans outstanding.

We 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 settlement option
is elected. At such times, the proceeds are not subject to the investment
experience of the Separate Account.

The Death Benefit equals the greater of:

- - the Face Amount; or

- - the Account Value multiplied by a specified percentage.

The percentage varies according to the attained age of the Insured and is
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. This is illustrated in the following examples:

EXAMPLES:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                                    A          B
<S>                              <C>        <C>      <C>
- --------------------------------------------------------
 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%
- --------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

In Example A, the Death Benefit equals $116,250, i.e., the greater of $100,000
(the Face Amount) or $116,250 (the Account Value at the Date of Death of
$46,500, multiplied by the specified percentage of 250%). This amount less any
outstanding loans constitutes the Death Proceeds which we 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%).

DEATH BENEFIT POLICY PROCEEDS -- Proceeds from the Death Benefit left with us
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.
<PAGE>
16                                    HARTFORD LIFE AN ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All or part of the Death Proceeds may be paid in cash or applied under a
Settlement Option.

SETTLEMENT OPTIONS -- The surrender proceeds or Death Proceeds under your policy
may be paid in a lump sum or may be applied to one of our settlement options.
The minimum amount that may be applied under a settlement option is $5,000,
unless we consent to a lesser amount. UNDER SETTLEMENT OPTIONS LIFE ANNUITY,
LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120, 180, OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS CERTAIN AND JOINT AND LAST
SURVIVOR ANNUITY, NO SURRENDER OR PARTIAL SURRENDERS ARE PERMITTED AFTER
PAYMENTS START. FULL SURRENDER OR PARTIAL SURRENDERS MAY BE MADE FROM THE
INTEREST INCOME SETTLEMENT OPTION, PAYMENTS FOR A DESIGNATED PERIOD SETTLEMENT
OPTION OR THE DEATH BENEFIT POLICY PROCEEDS, BUT THEY ARE SUBJECT TO THE
SURRENDER CHARGE, IF APPLICABLE. THERE MAY BE ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCES FOR
PARTIAL SURRENDERS FROM PAYMENTS FOR A DESIGNATED PERIOD SETTLEMENT OPTION.
PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR TAX ADVISOR BEFORE REQUESTING A PARTIAL SURRENDER.

The following settlement options are available under your policy:

OPTION 1 -- INTEREST INCOME

This option offers payments of interest, at the rate we declare, on the amount
applied under this settlement option. The interest rate will never be less than
3 1/2% per year.

OPTION 2 -- LIFE ANNUITY

Death Proceeds are used to purchase a variable annuity where we make annuity
payments as long as the annuitant is living. When the annuitant dies, we stop
making annuity payments. A payee would receive only one annuity payment if the
annuitant dies after the first payment, two annuity payments if the annuitant
dies after the second payment, and so forth.

OPTION 3 -- LIFE ANNUITY WITH 120, 180 OR 240 MONTHLY PAYMENTS CERTAIN

We make monthly annuity payments during the lifetime of the annuitant but
annuity payments are at least guaranteed for a minimum of 120, 180 or 240
months, as you elect. If, at the death of the annuitant, annuity payments have
been made for less than the minimum elected number of months, then the
beneficiary can either receive the present value (as of the date of the
annuitant's death) of the remaining payments in one sum or continue annuity
payments for the remaining period certain.

OPTION 4 -- JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR LIFE ANNUITY

We will make annuity payments as long as the annuitant and joint annuitant are
living. When one annuitant dies, we continue to make annuity payments until that
second annuitant dies. The annuitant may elect that the payment be less than the
payment made during the joint lifetime of the annuitants. When choosing this
option, you must decide what will happen to the annuity payments after the first
annuitant dies.

Under this option, it is possible for an annuitant and joint annuitant to
receive only one payment in the event of the common or simultaneous death of the
annuitants prior to the date of the second payment.

OPTION 5 -- PAYMENTS FOR A DESIGNATED PERIOD

We will make annuity payments for the number of years that you select. You can
select between 5 years and 30 years. Under this option, you may, at any time,
request a full surrender and receive the Cash Surrender Value of your policy.

VARIABLE AND FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS -- When the settlement option you select
involves an annuity, unless you specify otherwise, the surrender proceeds or
Death Proceeds provide a variable annuity. Fixed annuity options are also
available.

VARIABLE ANNUITY -- Your policy contains tables indicating the minimum dollar
amount of the first monthly payment under a variable annuity for each $1,000 of
value of a Sub-Account. Your first monthly payment varies with the annuity
option chosen and specific parameters chosen by you. 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 assumed investment rate is the investment return
used to calculate subsequent variable annuity payments.

We determine the total first monthly variable annuity payment by multiplying the
Death Proceeds (expressed in thousands of dollars) in 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 your first monthly variable annuity payment is divided by the
value of an annuity unit 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. This determines 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 assumed investment rate. Payments will vary
up or down as the investment rate varies up or down relative to the assumed
investment rate.

FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS -- You will receive equal fixed annuity payments
throughout the annuity payment period. We determine fixed annuity payment
amounts by multiplying the amount applied to the annuity by an annuity rate. The
annuity rate is set by us and is not less than the rate specified in the fixed
payment annuity tables in your policy.

Hartford will make any other arrangements for income payments as may be agreed
on.

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 us, we will pay you the Cash Surrender Value. In such case, the
policy will
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                                   17
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
terminate and we 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."

CHARGES AND POLICY VALUES -- Your policy value decreases due to the deduction of
policy charges. Policy value may increase or decrease depending on investment
performance. Fluctuations in your Account Value may have an effect on your Death
Benefit. If your policy lapses, your policy terminates and no Death Benefit will
be paid.

MAKING WITHDRAWALS FROM YOUR POLICY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SURRENDERS -- While your policy is in force, you may, without the consent of the
beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not irrevocable), fully
surrender your policy. Upon surrender, you receive the Cash Surrender Value
determined as of the day we receive your request or the date requested by you,
whichever is later. The Cash Surrender Value equals the Account Value less any
Surrender Charges and any Unamortized Tax charge and all Indebtedness. We pay
the Cash Surrender Value of the policy within seven days of our receipt of your
written request or on the effective surrender date requested by you, whichever
is later. Your policy will terminate on the date of our receipt of the written
request, or the date you request the surrender to be effective, whichever is
later. For a discussion of the tax consequences of surrendering your policy, see
"Federal Tax Considerations".

If you choose to apply the surrender proceeds to a settlement option, 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, amounts you withdraw from the Interest Income settlement
option, the Payments for a Designated Period settlement option or the Death
Benefit Policy Proceeds are subject to any applicable Surrender Charge.

PARTIAL SURRENDERS -- While your policy is in force, you may elect, by written
request, to make partial surrenders from the Cash Surrender Value. The Cash
Surrender Value, after partial surrender, must at least equal our minimum amount
rules then in effect; otherwise, the request will be treated as a request for
full surrender. The partial surrenders will be deducted pro rata from each
Sub-Account, unless the you instruct otherwise. The Face Amount will be reduced
proportionate to the reduction in the Account Value due to the partial
surrender. Partial surrenders in excess of the greater of 10% of premiums or
100% of Account Value less premiums paid will be subject to the Surrender Charge
and any Unamortized Tax charges. For a discussion of the tax consequences of
partial surrenders, see "Federal Tax Considerations".

RIGHT TO EXAMINE -- You have a limited right to return your policy for
cancellation. You may deliver or mail the policy to us or to the agent from whom
it was purchased any time during your free look period. Your free look period
begins on the day you get your policy and ends ten days after you get it (or
longer in some states). In such event, the policy will be rescinded and we will
pay an amount equal to the greater of the premiums paid for the policy less any
Indebtedness or the sum of: i) the Account Value less any Indebtedness, on the
date the returned policy is received by us or the agent from whom it was
purchased; and, ii) any deductions under the policy or charges associated with
the Separate Account. If your policy is replacing another policy, your free look
period and the amount paid to you upon the return of your policy vary by state.

RIGHT TO EXCHANGE -- Once the policy is in effect, it may be exchanged, during
the first 24 months after its issuance, for a non-variable flexible premium
adjustable life insurance policy offered by us (or an affiliated company) on the
life of the Insured. No evidence of insurability will be required. The new
policy will have, at your election, either the same Coverage Amount as under the
exchanged policy on the date of exchange or the same Death Benefit. The
effective date, issue date and issue age will be the same as existed under the
exchanged policy. If a policy loan was outstanding, the entire loan must be
repaid. The exchange is subject to adjustments in payments and Account Values to
reflect variances, if any, in the payments and Account Values under this policy
and the new policy.

LOANS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AVAILABILITY OF LOANS -- At any time while the policy is in force, you, without
the consent of the beneficiary, (provided the designation of beneficiary is not
irrevocable) may borrow against the policy by assigning it as sole security to
us. Two types of cash loans are available. Any new loan taken together with any
existing Indebtedness may not exceed 90% of the Cash Value. The minimum loan
amount that we will allow is $25.00.

The proceeds of a loan will be delivered to you within seven business days of
our receipt of the loan request.

Unless you specify otherwise, all loan amounts will be transferred pro rata
basis from each Sub-Account to the Loan Account. 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.
<PAGE>
18                                    HARTFORD LIFE AN ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If total Indebtedness equals or exceeds the Account Value of the policy on any
Monthly Activity Date, we will give you written notice that, unless we receive
an additional payment within 61 days to reduce the aggregate outstanding loan(s)
secured by the policy, the policy may lapse. See "Lapse and Reinstatement."

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."

LOAN REPAYMENTS -- You can repay all or any part of a loan at any time while
your policy is in force. The amount of your policy loan repayment will be
deducted from the Loan Account. It will be allocated among the Sub-Accounts in
the same percentage as premiums are allocated. Any outstanding loan at the end
of a grace period must be repaid before the policy will be reinstated.

EFFECT OF LOANS ON ACCOUNT VALUE -- A loan, whether or not repaid, has a
permanent effect on your Account Value. This effect occurs because the
investment result of each Sub-Account applies only to the amount remaining in
such Sub-Accounts. The longer a loan is outstanding, the greater the effect on
your Account Value 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, your Account Value will not increase as
rapidly as it would have had no loan been made. If the Sub-Accounts earn less
than the Loan Account, then your Account Value will be greater than it would
have been had no loan been made. If not repaid, the aggregate amount of the
outstanding Indebtedness will reduce the Death Proceeds and the Cash Surrender
Value otherwise payable. For a discussion of the consequences of obtaining a
loan against the policy see "Federal Tax Considerations."

CREDITED INTEREST -- Any amounts in the Loan Account will be credited with
interest at an annual rate of 4.0%. The annual rate for Preferred Loans is 6%.

POLICY LOAN RATES -- The loan interest rate that we will charge on all loans is
6% per annum.

LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LAPSE -- Your policy will remain in force until the Cash Surrender Value is
insufficient to cover the Deduction Amount due on a Monthly Activity Date. We
will notify you of the default in writing, warning you that your policy is in
danger of terminating.

GRACE PERIOD -- Your policy provides a 61-day grace period to pay an amount
sufficient to cover the Deduction Amounts due. The notice will indicate the
amount that must be paid.

The policy will continue through the grace period, but if no additional premium
payment is made, it will terminate at the end of the grace period. If the person
Insured under the policy dies during the grace period, the Death Proceeds
payable under the policy will be reduced by the Deduction Amount(s) due and
unpaid. See "Death Benefits and Policy Values."

REINSTATEMENT -- If your policy lapses, you may apply for reinstatement of the
policy by payment of the reinstatement premium shown in the policy and any
applicable charges. A request for reinstatement may be made within five years of
lapse. If a loan is outstanding at the time of lapse, we require repayment of
the loan before permitting reinstatement. In addition, we reserve the right to
require evidence of insurability satisfactory to Hartford.

The Account Value on the reinstatement date will reflect:

- - the Cash Value at the time of termination; plus

- - Net Premiums derived from premiums paid at the time of reinstatement; minus

- - the Monthly Deduction Amounts that were due and unpaid during the Policy Grace
  Period; plus

- - the Surrender Charge at the time of reinstatement.

The surrender charge is based on the duration from the original policy date as
through the policy has never lapsed.

FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GENERAL

Since federal tax law is complex, the tax consequences of purchasing this policy
will vary depending on your situation. You may need tax or legal advice to help
you determine whether purchasing this policy is right for you.

Our general discussion of the tax treatment of this policy is based on our
understanding of federal income tax laws as they are currently interpreted. A
detailed description of all federal income tax consequences regarding the
purchase of this policy cannot be made in the prospectus. We also do not discuss
state, municipal or other tax laws that may apply to this policy. For detailed
information, you should consult with a qualified tax adviser familiar with your
situation.

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
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY                                   19
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Separate Account (the underlying Portfolios) are reinvested and are taken into
account in determining the value of the Accumulation Units (see "Premiums --
Account Value"). 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 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 Policy 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.


A policy that is classified as modified endowment contract is eligible for
certain aspects of 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 policy (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 includable 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 includable 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 $675,000 (for 2000) from
the estate and gift tax. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 gradually raises the
credit over the next six 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
<PAGE>

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
generation skipping transfer exemption of $1 million, as adjusted for inflation.
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

The Code requires that investments supporting your policy be adequately
diversified. Code Section 817 provides that a variable life insurance contract
will not be treated as a life insurance contract for any period during which the
investments made by the separate account or underlying Portfolio are not
adequately diversified. If a contract is not treated as a life insurance
contract, the policy owner will be subject to income tax on annual increases in
cash value.

The Treasury Department's diversification regulations 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 the
case of government securities, each government agency or instrumentality is
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 still comply within a reasonable period and avoid
the taxation of contract 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.

We monitor the diversification of investments in the separate accounts and test
for diversification as required by the Code. We intend to administer all
policies subject to the diversification requirements in a manner that will
maintain adequate diversification.

OWNERSHIP OF THE ASSETS IN THE
SEPARATE ACCOUNT

In order for a variable life insurance contract to qualify for tax deferral,
assets in the separate accounts supporting the contract must be considered to be
owned by the insurance company and not by the policy owner. It is unclear under
what circumstances an investor is considered to have enough control over the
assets in the separate account to be considered the owner of the assets for tax
purposes.

The IRS has issued several rulings discussing investor control. These rulings
say that certain incidents of ownership by the policy owner, such as the ability
to select and control investments in a separate account, will cause the policy
owner to be treated as the owner of the assets for tax purposes.

In its explanation of the diversification regulations, the Treasury Department
recognized 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
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, guidance has
yet to be issued. We do not know if additional guidance will be issued. If
guidance is issued, we do not know if it will have a retroactive effect.

Due to the lack of specific guidance on investor control, there is some
uncertainty about when a policy owner is considered the owner of the assets for
tax purposes. We reserve the right to modify the policy, as necessary, to
prevent you from being considered the owner of assets in the separate account.

TAX DEFERRAL DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD

Under existing provisions of the Code, except as described below, any increase
in an Owner's Investment Value is generally not taxable to the Policy Owner
unless amounts are received (or are deemed to be received) under the Policy
prior to the Insured's death. If the Policy is surrendered or matures, the
amount received will be includable in the Policy Owner's income to the extent
that it exceeds the Policy Owner's "investment in the contract." (If there is
any debt at the time of a surrender, then such debt will be treated as an amount
distributed to the Owner.) The "investment in the contract" is the aggregate
amount of premium payments and other consideration paid for the Policy, less the
aggregate amount received previously under the Policy to the extent such amounts
received were excluded from gross income. Since this Policy is a modified
endowment contract, partial withdrawals (or other such amounts deemed to be
distributed) from the Policy constitute income to the Policy Owner for Federal
income tax purposes.

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.

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.

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 affiliates of Hartford. The principal business address of
HESCO and HSD is the same as that of Hartford.

</TABLE>


The maximum sales commission payable to Hartford agents, independent registered
insurance brokers, and other registered broker-dealers is 7.0% of initial and
subsequent premiums.

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 the 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 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.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT CHARGES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UNDERWRITING PROCEDURES -- To purchase a policy you must submit an application
to us. Generally, the minimum initial premium we accept is $10,000. A policy
will be issued only on the lives of insureds age 90 and under who supply
evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. Acceptance is subject to our
underwriting rules and we reserve the right to reject an application for any
reason. No change in the terms or conditions of a policy will be made without
your consent.

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. The current cost
of insurance charge will not exceed the guaranteed cost of insurance charge. The
guaranteed cost of insurance charge is a guaranteed maximum monthly rate,
multiplied by the Coverage Amount on the Policy Date or any Monthly Activity
Date. A table of guaranteed maximum 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. For standard risks, the guaranteed maximum cost
of insurance rate is 100% of the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary
Unismoker, Sex Distinct Age Last Birthday Mortality Table (1980 CSO Table).
Substandard risks will be assessed a higher guaranteed maximum cost of insurance
rate that will not exceed rates based on a multiple of the 1980 CSO Table. The
multiple will be based on the insured's substandard rating. Unisex rates may be
required in some states.

ILLUSTRATIONS OF DEATH BENEFITS, ACCOUNT VALUES
AND CASH SURRENDER VALUES

The tables 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 age 45, a female age 55 and a male age 65 with Face Amounts of $40,161,
$33,334 and $19,380, respectively, are illustrated for the single life preferred
Policy. The illustrations for the last survivor preferred Policy assume male and
female of equal ages, including age 55 and 65 for Face Amounts of $44,053 and
$27,778.

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 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 0.92% 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 annual charge of 0.92% described above) of -0.92%,
5.08% and 11.08%, 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
"Changes to Policy or Separate Account -- Separate Account Taxes").

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.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company
Separate Account Five and to the Owners of Units of Interest therein:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of
Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company Separate Account Five (Money Market,
North American Government Securities, Balanced Growth, Utilities, Dividend
Growth, Value-Added Market, Growth, American Opportunities, Global Equity,
Developing Growth, Emerging Markets, Diversified Income, Mid-Cap Equity, High
Yield, Mid-Cap Value, Emerging Markets Debt, Strategic Stock, and Enterprise
sub-accounts), (collectively, the Account) as of December 31, 1999, and the
related statements of operations and the statements of changes in net assets for
the periods presented. 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 the Account as of December 31,
1999, and the results of its operations and the changes in its net assets for
the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

SEPARATE ACCOUNT FIVE -- HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1999

1.  ORGANIZATION:

Separate Account Five (the Account) is a separate investment account within
Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and the Account
are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of Insurance of the
State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests deposits by variable life
policyowners of the Company in various mutual funds (the Funds) as directed by
the policyowners.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Account,
which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
investment company industry:

A) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- Security transactions are recorded on the trade date
(date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and losses on the
sales of securities are computed on the basis of identified cost of the fund
shares sold. Dividend and capital gains income is accrued as of the ex-dividend
date. Capital gains income represents those dividends from the Funds which are
characterized as capital gains under tax regulations.

B) SECURITY VALUATION -- The investment in shares of the Morgan Stanley Dean
Witter Select Dimensions Investment Series, the Morgan Stanley Dean Witter
Universal Funds, Inc. and Van Kampen Life Investment Trust are valued at the
closing net asset value per share as determined by the appropriate Fund as of
December 31, 1999.

C) UNIT TRANSACTIONS -- Unit transactions are executed based on the unit values
calculated at the close of the business day.

D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The operations of the Account form a part of, and are
taxed with, the total operations of the Company, which is taxed as an insurance
company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no Federal income
taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the Account.

E) 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:

A) COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE -- In accordance with terms of the policies, the
Company assesses deductions for costs of insurance charges to cover the
Company's anticipated mortality costs. Because a policy's account value and
death benefit may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance charge may
also vary.

B) MORTALITY AND EXPENSE UNDERTAKINGS -- The Company, as issuer of variable life
policies, provides the mortality and expense undertakings and, with respect to
the Account, receives a maximum annual fee of 0.90% of the Account's average
daily net assets. The Company also provides administrative services and receives
an annual fee of 0.40% of the Account's average daily net assets. These charges
are reflected in surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying
statements of changes in net assets.

C) DEDUCTION OF ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE -- Annual maintenance fees are deducted
through termination of units of interest from applicable policyowner accounts,
in accordance with the terms of the policies. These charges are reflected in
surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying statements of
changes in net assets.

D) TAX EXPENSE CHARGE -- The Company will deduct monthly from the account value
a tax expense charge equal to an annual rate of 0.40% for the first ten years.
During the first nine policy years, a premium tax charge will be imposed on full
or partial surrenders at a maximum rate of 2.25%. These charges are reflected in
surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying statements of
changes in net assets.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
              ----------------------------------------------------

To the Board of Directors of
Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company:

We have audited the accompanying statutory balance sheets of Hartford Life and
Annuity Insurance Company (a Connecticut Corporation and wholly owned subsidiary
of Hartford Life Insurance Company) (the Company) as of December 31, 1999 and
1998, and the related statutory statements of operations, changes in capital and
surplus, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1999. These statutory 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 auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. 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 2 of notes to statutory financial
statements. When financial statements are presented for purposes other than for
filing with a regulatory agency, auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States require that an auditors' report on them state whether they are
presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The accounting practices used by the Company vary from accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States as explained and quantified
in Note 2.

In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter discussed in the preceding
paragraph, the statutory financial statements referred to above do not present
fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 1999 and
1998, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1999.

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, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 in conformity
with statutory accounting practices as described in Note 2.

1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:

Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company (the "Company") is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Hartford Life Insurance Company ("HLIC"), which is an indirect
subsidiary of Hartford Life, Inc. ("HLI"). HLI is indirectly majority owned by
The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. ("The Hartford"). 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 approximately 18.6% of the
equity ownership of HLI.

In 1998, the Company changed its name to Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance
Company from ITT Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company.

The Company offers a complete line of fixed and variable annuities, as well as
variable, universal and traditional individual life insurance.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying statutory basis financial statements of the Company 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. Certain reclassifications have
been made to prior year financial information to conform to the current year
presentation.

Current prescribed statutory accounting practices include accounting
publications of the NAIC, as well as state laws, regulations and general
administrative rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass
accounting practices approved by state insurance departments. The Company does
not follow any permitted statutory accounting practices that have a material
effect on statutory surplus, statutory net income or risk-based capital.

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 periods. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates include those used
in 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 VERSUS GAAP

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, etc.) which are charged to expense when incurred for statutory
    purposes rather than on a pro-rata basis over the expected life and gross
    profit stream of the policy for GAAP purposes;

(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 only consist of charges assessed to policy
    account balances for cost of insurance, policy administration and
    surrenders. When policy charges received relate to coverage or services to
    be provided in the future, the charges are recognized as revenue on a
    pro-rata basis over the expected life and gross profit stream of the policy.
    Also, for GAAP purposes, premiums for traditional life insurance policies
    are recognized as revenues when they are due from policyholders;

(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 under GAAP;

(4) providing for income taxes based on current taxable income 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 or required under GAAP;

(5) excluding certain assets designated as non-admitted assets (e.g., negative
    Interest Maintenance Reserve, and past due agents' balances) from the
    balance sheet for statutory purposes by directly charging surplus;

(6) the calculation of post retirement benefits obligation which, for statutory
    accounting, excludes non-vested employees whereas GAAP liabilities include a
    provision for such employees; statutory and GAAP accounting permit either
    immediate recognition of the liability or straight-line amortization of the
    liability over a period not to exceed 20 years. For GAAP, The Hartford's
    obligation was immediately recognized, whereas for statutory accounting, the
    obligation is being recognized ratably over a 20 year period;

                                      F-6
<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) for statutory purposes; as well as the deferral and
    amortization of realized gains and losses, caused 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) for
    statutory purposes; 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 for
    statutory purposes; 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 for statutory purposes,
    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 separate component of Stockholder's
    Equity; as well as the change in the basis of the Company's other invested
    assets, which consist primarily of limited partnership investments, which is
    recognized as income under GAAP and as a change in surplus under statutory
    accounting; and


(10) statutory accounting calculates separate account liabilities using
    prescribed actuarial methodologies, which approximate the market value of
    separate account assets less applicable surrender charges. The separate
    account surplus generated by these reserving methods is recorded as an
    amount due to or from the separate account on the statutory basis balance
    sheet, with changes reflected in the statutory basis results of operations.
    On a GAAP basis, separate account assets and liabilities are held at fair
    value.

As of and for the years ended December 31, the significant differences between
Statutory and GAAP basis net income and capital and surplus for the Company are
as follows:

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 applicable 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 the Commissioners Annuity Reserve Valuation Method
("CARVM").

The Company has established separate accounts to segregate the assets and
liabilities of certain life insurance and annuity contracts that must be
segregated from the Company's general assets under the terms of its contracts.
The assets consist primarily of marketable securities and are reported at market
value. Premiums, benefits and expenses of these contracts are reported in the
statutory basis statements of operations.

An analysis of Annuity Actuarial Reserves and Deposit Liabilities by Withdrawal
Characteristics as of December 31, 1999 (including general and separate account
liabilities) is as follows:

INVESTMENTS

Investments in bonds are carried at amortized cost. Bonds that 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 reduction in
the value of a security is deemed to be unrecoverable, the decline in value is
reported as a realized loss and the carrying value is adjusted accordingly.
Short-term investments consist of money market funds and are stated at cost,
which approximates fair value. Common stocks are carried at fair value with the
current year change in the difference from cost reflected in surplus. Mortgage
loans, which are carried at cost and approximate fair value, include investments
in assets backed by mortgage loan pools. 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 AVR balances were $4,935 and $21,782
as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Additionally, the Interest
Maintenance Reserve ("IMR") captures net realized capital gains and losses, net
of applicable income taxes, resulting from changes in interest rates and
amortizes these gains or losses into income over the life of the bond or
mortgage sold. The IMR balance as of December 31, 1999 is an asset balance of
$981 and is reflected as a component of non-admitted assets in Unassigned Funds
in accordance with statutory accounting practices. The IMR balance as of
December 31, 1998 is a liability balance of $452 and is reflected as an other
liability. The net capital (losses) gains transferred to the IMR in 1999, 1998
and 1997 were $(1,255), $852 and $(719), respectively. The amount of income
(expense) amortized from the IMR in 1999, 1998 and 1997 included in the
Company's Statements of Operations, was $178, $(207), and $(85), respectively.
Realized capital gains and losses, net of taxes, not included in the IMR are
reported in the statutory basis statements of operations. Realized investment
gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis.

CODIFICATION

The NAIC adopted the Codification of Statutory Accounting Principles in March
1998. The proposed effective date for this statutory accounting guidance is
January 1, 2001. It is expected that Connecticut, the Company's domiciliary
state, will adopt these accounting standards and, therefore, the Company will
make the necessary accounting and reporting changes required for implementation.
The Company has not yet determined the impact that these new accounting
standards will have on its statutory basis financial statements.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments: fair value of bonds, short-term
investments, common stock, and other invested assets approximate those
quotations published by the NAIC; policy loans and mortgage loans carrying
amounts approximates fair value; and fair value of liabilities on deposit funds
and other benefits is determined by forecasting future cash flows and
discounting the forecasted cash flows at current market rates.

4. REINSURANCE:

The Company cedes insurance to other insurers in order to limit its maximum
losses. Such transfer does not relieve the Company of its primary liability to
the policyholder. Failure of reinsurers to honor their obligations could result
in losses to the Company. The Company reduces this risk by evaluating the
financial condition of reinsurers and monitoring for possible concentrations of
credit risk.

The Company cedes significant portions of its variable annuity business written
since 1994 to RGA Reinsurance Company ("RGA"). Certain core annuity products
were excluded from this reinsurance arrangement beginning in the second quarter
of 1999 and, as such, the amounts ceded to RGA have declined significantly.

In 1995, The Hartford was "spun-off" from ITT Industries, Inc. and became its
own, autonomous entity. In conjunction with this spin-off, the assets and
liabilities of Lyndon Insurance Company (Lyndon) were merged into the Company.
The statutory net assets contributed to the Company as a result of this
transaction were approximately $112 million and were reflected as an increase in
Gross Paid-In and Contributed Surplus at December 31, 1995. This amount was
approximately $41 million lower than the value of net assets contributed on a
GAAP basis.

The majority of the business written in Lyndon was assumed from an unaffiliated
insurer. In 1998, this unaffiliated insurer recaptured the inforce blocks of
business it had been ceding to the Company through Lyndon. In conjunction with
this commutation transaction, the Company transferred statutory basis reserves
of $26,404. Additionally, the Company received fair value consideration for the
bonds it transferred which exceeded the statutory statement value of these
assets by $25,622. As a result of this activity, the Company recognized a
pre-tax gain from this transaction of $52,026 in its 1998 Statements of
Operations.

There were no material reinsurance recoverables from reinsurers outstanding as
of and for the years ended, December 31, 1999 and 1998.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

Transactions between the Company and its affiliates, relate principally to tax
settlements, reinsurance, insurance coverages, rental and service fees, capital
contributions and payments of dividends. In addition, certain affiliated
insurance companies purchased group annuity contracts from the Company to fund
pension costs and claim annuities to settle casualty claims. Substantially all
general insurance expenses related to the Company, including rent and benefit
plan expenses, are initially paid by The Hartford. Direct expenses are allocated
using specific identification and indirect expenses are allocated using other
applicable methods. Indirect expenses include those for corporate areas which,
depending on type, are allocated based on either a percentage of direct expenses
or on utilization.

The Company has also invested in bonds of its affiliates, Hartford Financial
Services Corporation and HL Investment Advisors, Inc., and common stock of its
subsidiary, Hartford Life, LTD.

For additional information, see Notes 4, 6, and 8.

6. 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 filing separate Federal, state and local
income tax returns.

As long as The Hartford continues to own 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 affiliated group of
which The Hartford is the common parent. The Hartford and its non-life
subsidiaries filed a single consolidated Federal income tax return for 1998 and
1997 and intend to file a separate consolidated Federal income tax return for
1999. The life insurance companies filed a separate consolidated Federal income
tax return for 1998 and 1997 and intend to file a separate consolidated Federal
income tax return for 1999. Federal income taxes (received) paid by the Company
for operations and capital gains (losses) were $(8,815), $25,780, and $(14,499)
in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The effective tax rate was (73)%, 27%, and
(28)% in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

</TABLE>

7. CAPITAL AND SURPLUS AND SHAREHOLDER DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS:

The maximum amount of dividends which can be paid to shareholders by Connecticut
domiciled insurance companies, without prior approval, is generally restricted
to the greater of 10% of surplus as of the preceding December 31st or the net
gain from operations for the previous year. Dividends are paid as determined by
the Board of Directors and are not cumulative. No dividends were paid in 1999,
1998 or 1997. The amount available for dividend in 2000 is approximately
$60,855.

8. PENSION, RETIREMENT, AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT AND POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS:

All employees that work for The Hartford's life insurance companies 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 Hartford'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,
as amended, and the maximum amount that can be deducted for U.S. Federal income
tax purposes. Generally, pension costs are funded through the purchase of group
pension contracts sold by affiliates. The costs that were allocated to the
Company for pension related expenses were $762, $1,045 and $840 for 1999, 1998
and 1997, respectively.


Employees of The Hartford's life insurance companies are also provided, through
The Hartford, certain health care and life insurance benefits for eligible
retired employees. The contribution for health care benefits depends on the
retiree's date of retirement and years of service. In addition, this benefit
plan has a defined dollar cap, which limits average company contributions. The
Hartford 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. Postretirement health care and life insurance benefits
expense allocated to the Company was not material to the results of operations
for 1999, 1998 or 1997.


The assumed rate in the per capita cost of health care (the health care trend
rate) was 7.1% for 1999, decreasing ratably to 5.0% in the year 2003. Increasing
the health care trend rates by one percent per year would have an immaterial
impact on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and the annual
expense. To the extent that the actual experience differs from the inherent
assumptions, the effect will be amortized over the average future service of
covered employees.

Substantially all of The Hartford's life insurance companies' employees are
eligible to participate in The Hartford's Investment and Savings Plan. Under
this plan, designated contributions, which may be invested in Class A Common
Stock of HLI or certain other investments, are matched to a limit of 3% of
compensation.

9. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS:

The Company maintains separate account assets totaling $44.9 billion and $32.9
billion as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Separate account assets
are segregated from other investments and reported at fair value. Separate
account liabilities are determined in accordance with prescribed actuarial
methodologies, which approximate the market value less applicable surrender
charges. The resulting surplus is recorded in the general account statement of
operations as a component of Net Transfers to Separate Accounts. The Company's
separate accounts are non-guaranteed, wherein the policyholder assumes
substantially all the investment risk and rewards. Investment income (including
investment gains and losses) and interest credited to policyholders on separate
account assets are not separately reflected in the statutory statements of
operations.

Separate account management fees, net of minimum guarantees, were $493 million,
$363 million, and $252 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and are
recorded as a component of fee income on the Company's statutory basis
Statements of Operations.

<PAGE>
10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES:

  (A) LITIGATION

The Company is involved in pending and threatened litigation in the normal
course of its business in which claims for alleged economic and punitive damages
have been asserted. Some of these cases have been filed as purported class
actions and some cases have been filed in certain jurisdictions that permit
punitive damage awards disproportionate to the actual damages incurred. Although
there can be no assurances, at the present time, the Company does not anticipate
that the ultimate liability, arising from such pending or threatened litigation,
will have a material adverse effect on the statutory capital and surplus of the
Company.

  (B) GUARANTY FUNDS

Under insurance guaranty fund laws in each state, the District of Columbia and
Puerto Rico, insurers licensed to do business can be assessed by state insurance
guaranty associations for certain obligations of insolvent insurance companies
to policyholders and claimants. Recent regulatory actions against certain large
life insurers encountering financial difficulty have prompted various state
insurance guaranty associations to begin assessing life insurance companies for
the deemed losses. Most of these laws do provide, however, that an assessment
may be excused or deferred if it would threaten an insurer's solvency and
further provide annual limits on such assessments. Part of the assessments paid
by the Company pursuant to these laws may be used as credits for a portion of
the associated premium taxes. The Company paid guaranty fund assessments of
approximately $523, $1,043 and $1,544 in 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively, of
which $318, $995, and $548 in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively were estimated
to be creditable against premium taxes.

  (C) TAX MATTERS

The Company's Federal income tax returns are routinely audited by the Internal
Revenue Service ("IRS"). The Company's 1997 and 1996 Federal income tax returns
are currently under audit by the IRS. As of March 31, 2000, the audit was in its
initial stage and no material issues had been raised.

Item 29.  Persons Controlled By or Under Common Control with the Depositor or
          Registrant

          Filed herewith as Exhibit (s).

Item 30:  Indemnification

<PAGE>

         Sections 33-770 to 33-778, inclusive, of the Connecticut General
         Statutes ("CGS") provide that a corporation may provide indemnification
         of or advance expenses to a director, officer, employee or agent.
         Reference is hereby made to Section 33-771(e) of CGS regarding
         indemnification of directors and Section 33-776(d) of CGS regarding
         indemnification of officers, employees and agents of Connecticut
         corporations. These statutes provide, in general, that Connecticut
         corporations incorporated prior to January 1, 1997 shall, except to the
         extent that their certificate of incorporation expressly provides
         otherwise, indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents
         against "liability" (defined as the obligation to pay a judgment,
         settlement, penalty, fine, including an excise tax assessed with
         respect to an employee benefit plan, or reasonable expenses incurred
         with respect to a proceeding) when (1) a determination is made pursuant
         to Section 33-775 that the party seeking indemnification has met the
         standard of conduct set forth in Section 33-771 or (2) a court has
         determined that indemnification is appropriate pursuant to Section
         33-774. Under Section 33-775, the determination of and the
         authorization for indemnification are made (a) by the disinterested
         directors, as defined in Section 33-770(3); (b) by special counsel; (c)
         by the shareholders; or (d) in the case of indemnification of an
         officer, agent or employee of the corporation, by the general counsel
         of the corporation or such other officer(s) as the board of directors
         may specify. Also, Section 33-772 provides that a corporation shall
         indemnify an individual who was wholly successful on the merits or
         otherwise against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection
         with a proceeding to which he was a party because he was a director of
         the corporation. In the case of a proceeding by or in the right of the
         corporation or with respect to conduct for which the director, officer,
         agent or employee was adjudged liable on the basis that he received a
         financial benefit to which he was not entitled, indemnification is
         limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the
         proceeding against the corporation to which the individual was named a
         party.

         Under the Depositor's bylaws, the Depositor must indemnify both
         directors and officers of the Depositor for (1) any claims and
         liabilities to which they become subject by reason of being or having
         been directors or officers of the Depositor and (2) legal and other
         expenses incurred in defending against such claims, in each case, to
         the extent such is consistent with statutory provisions.

         Section 33-777 of CGS specifically authorizes a corporation to procure
         indemnification insurance on behalf of an individual who was a
         director, officer, employer or agent of the corporation. Consistent
         with the statute, the directors and officers of the Depositor and
         Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") are covered
         under a directors and


<PAGE>

         officers liability insurance policy issued to The Hartford Financial
         Services Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

         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. 333-00259

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 policies (the "Policies") 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 Policies.

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

RE:  SEPARATE ACCOUNT FIVE
     HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
     FILE NO. 333-00259

Dear Sir/Madam:

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 utilizing 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 Statement of Additional Information included as a part of such
Form S-6 Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,
