PUTNAM CAPITAL MANAGER LIFE
MODIFIED SINGLE PREMIUM
PROSPECTUS DATED: MAY 1, 1997
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
P.O. BOX 2999
HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT 06104-2999
[LOGO] TELEPHONE: 1-800-231-5453
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Prospectus describes Putnam Capital Manager Life, a modified single premium
variable life insurance contract ("Contract" or "Contracts") offered by Hartford
Life Insurance Company ("Hartford") to applicants age 90 and under. The Contract
lets the Contract Owner pay a single premium and, subject to restrictions,
additional premiums.
The Contract is a modified endowment contract for federal income tax purposes,
except in certain cases described under "Federal Tax Considerations," page 21. A
LOAN, DISTRIBUTION OR OTHER AMOUNT RECEIVED FROM A MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACT
DURING THE LIFE OF THE INSURED WILL BE TAXED TO THE EXTENT OF ANY ACCUMULATED
INCOME IN THE CONTRACT. ANY AMOUNTS THAT ARE TAXABLE WITHDRAWALS WILL BE SUBJECT
TO A 10% ADDITIONAL TAX, WITH CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS.
Generally, the minimum initial premium Hartford will accept is $10,000. The
initial premium will be allocated to the PCM Money Market Fund Sub-Account.
After the Right to Cancel Period has expired, the amount so allocated will be
transferred to the Funds specified in the Contract Owner's application. The
following underlying investment portfolios ("Funds") of Putnam Variable Trust
are available under the Contracts: Putnam VT Asia Pacific Growth Fund, Putnam VT
Diversified Income Fund, Putnam VT Global Asset Allocation Fund, Putnam VT
Global Growth Fund, Putnam VT Growth and Income Fund, Putnam VT High Yield Fund,
Putnam VT International Growth Fund, Putnam VT International Growth and Income
Fund, Putnam VT International New Opportunities Fund, Putnam VT Money Market
Fund, Putnam VT New Opportunities Fund, Putnam VT New Value Fund, Putnam VT U.S.
Government and High Quality Bond Fund, Putnam VT Utilities Growth and Income
Fund, Putnam VT Vista Fund, and Putnam VT Voyager Fund.
There is no guaranteed minimum Account Value for a Contract. The Account Value
of a Contract will vary up or down to reflect the investment experience of the
Funds to which premiums have been allocated. The Contract Owner bears the
investment risk for all amounts so allocated. The Contract continues in effect
while the Cash Surrender Value is sufficient to pay the monthly charges under
the Contract ("Deduction Amount"). The Contract may terminate if the Cash
Surrender Value is insufficient to cover a Deduction Amount and, after
expiration of a specified period, no additional premium payments are made.
The Contracts provide for a Face Amount, which is the minimum death benefit
under a Contract. The death benefit ("Death Benefit") may be greater than the
Face Amount. The Account Value will, and under certain circumstances the Death
Benefit of the Contract may, increase or decrease based on the investment
experience of the Funds to which premiums have been allocated. However, while
the Contract is in force, the Death Benefit will never be less than the Face
Amount. At the death of the Insured, Hartford will pay the death proceeds
("Death Proceeds") to the beneficiary. The Death Proceeds equal the Death
Benefit less any Indebtedness under the Contract.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IT MAY NOT BE ADVANTAGEOUS TO PURCHASE VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE AS A REPLACEMENT
FOR YOUR CURRENT LIFE INSURANCE OR IF YOU ALREADY OWN A VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE
CONTRACT.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THIS PROSPECTUS IS VALID ONLY IF ACCOMPANIED BY THE CURRENT PROSPECTUSES OF THE
APPLICABLE ELIGIBLE FUNDS WHICH CONTAIN A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THOSE FUNDS. ALL
PROSPECTUSES SHOULD BE READ AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

BOARD OR ANY OTHER AGENCY, AND ARE SUBJECT TO INVESTMENT RISKS, INCLUDING THE

- -------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
- -------------------------------- THE CONTRACTS
The Contracts are life insurance contracts with death benefits, cash values,
and other traditional life insurance features. The Contracts are "variable."
Unlike the fixed benefits of ordinary whole life insurance, the Account Value
will, and the Death Benefit may, increase or decrease based on the investment
experience of the Funds to which premiums have been allocated. The Contracts are
credited with units ("Accumulation Units") to calculate cash values. The
Contract Owner may transfer the cash values among the Funds.
The Contracts can be issued on a single life or "last survivor" basis. For a
discussion of how last survivor Contracts operate differently from single life
Contracts, see "Last Survivor Contracts," page 15.
- ---------------------------------------------------
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS
Separate Account Five ("Separate Account") funds the variable life insurance
Contracts offered by this Prospectus. Hartford established the Separate Account
pursuant to Connecticut insurance law and organized as a unit investment trust
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Contracts currently
offer 16 sub-accounts ("Sub-Accounts"), each investing exclusively in a Fund. If
an initial premium is submitted with an application for a Contract, it will be
allocated, within three business days of receipt at Hartford's Home Office, to
the PCM Money Market Fund Sub-Account. After the expiration of the Right to
Cancel Period, the values in PCM Money Market Fund Sub-Account will be allocated
to one or more of the Funds, as specified in the Contract Owner's application.
See "The Contract -- Allocation of Premiums," page 10.
Currently, the Funds of Putnam Variable Trust available under the Contracts
are: Putnam VT Asia Pacific Growth Fund, Putnam VT Diversified Income Fund,
Putnam VT Global Asset Allocation Fund, Putnam VT Global Growth Fund, Putnam VT
Growth and Income Fund, Putnam VT High Yield Fund, Putnam VT International
Growth Fund, Putnam VT International Growth and Income Fund, Putnam VT
International New Opportunities Fund, Putnam VT Money Market Fund, Putnam VT New
Opportunities Fund, Putnam VT New Value Fund, Putnam VT U.S. Government and High
Quality Bond Fund, Putnam VT Utilities Growth and Income Fund, Putnam VT Vista
Fund, and Putnam VT Voyager Fund. Applicants should read the Funds prospectus
accompanying this Prospectus in connection with the purchase of a Contract. The
investment objectives of the Funds are as set forth in "The Separate Account,"
page 7.

- ---------------------------------------------------
PREMIUMS
The Contract permits the Contract Owner to pay a large single premium and,
subject to restrictions, additional premiums. The Contract Owner may choose a
minimum initial premium of 80%, 90% or 100% of the Guideline Single Premium
(based on the Face Amount). Under current underwriting rules, which are subject
to change, applicants between the ages of 45 and 80 who pay an initial premium
of 100% of the Guideline Single Premium are eligible for simplified underwriting
without a medical examination if they meet simplified underwriting standards as
evidenced in their responses in the application. For Contract Owners who pay an
initial premium of 80% or 90% of the Guideline Single Premium or who are below
age 45 or above age 80, standard underwriting applies, except that substandard
underwriting applies only in those cases that represent substandard risks
according to customary underwriting guidelines. Additional premiums are allowed
if they do not cause the Contract to fail to meet the definition of a life
insurance contract under Section 7702 of the Code. Hartford may require evidence
of insurability for any additional premiums which increase the Coverage Amount.
Generally, the minimum initial premium Hartford will accept is $10,000. Hartford
may accept less than $10,000 under certain circumstances. No premium will be
accepted which does not meet the tax qualification guidelines for life insurance
under the Code.
- ---------------------------------------------------
DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
On the Contract Date and on each Monthly Activity Date, Hartford will deduct
a Deduction Amount from the Account Value. The Deduction Amount will be made pro
rata respecting each Sub-Account attributable to the Contract. The Deduction
Amount includes a cost of insurance charge, tax expense charge, administrative
charge and a mortality and expense risk charge. The monthly cost of insurance
charge is to cover Hartford's anticipated mortality costs. In addition, Hartford
will deduct monthly from the Account Value a tax expense charge equal to an
annual rate of 0.40% for the first ten Contract Years. This charge compensates
Hartford for premium taxes imposed by various states and local jurisdictions and
for federal taxes imposed under Section 848 of the Code. The tax expense charge
includes a premium tax deduction of 0.25% and a federal tax deduction of 0.15%.
The premium tax deduction represents an average premium tax of 2.5% of premiums
over ten years. Hartford will deduct from the Account Value attributable to the
Separate Account a monthly administrative charge equal to an annual rate of
0.40%. This charge compensates Hartford for administrative expenses incurred in
the administration of the Separate Account and the Contracts. Hartford will also
deduct from the Account Value attributable to the Separate Account a monthly
charge equal to an annual rate of 0.90% for the mortality risks and expense
risks Hartford assumes in relation to the variable portion of the Contracts. If
the Cash Surrender Value is not sufficient to cover a Deduction Amount due on
any Monthly Activity Date the Contract may lapse. See "Deductions and Charges --
Monthly Deductions," page 10, and "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and
Reinstatement," page 15.
If the Account Value on a Contract Anniversary is less than $50,000,
Hartford will deduct on such date an Annual Maintenance Fee of $30. This fee
will help reimburse Hartford for administrative and maintenance costs of the
Contracts. See "Deductions and Charges -- Annual Maintenance Fee," page 12.
Hartford may set up a provision for income taxes against the assets of the
Separate Account. See "Deductions and Charges -- Charges Against The Separate
Account," page 12, and "Federal Tax Considerations," page 21.
Applicants should review the Funds' prospectus accompanying this Prospectus
for a description of the charges assessed against the assets of the Funds.
Upon surrender of the Contract and partial withdrawals in excess of the
Annual Withdrawal Amount, a contingent deferred sales charge may be assessed. In
Contract Years 1 through 3, this charge is 7.5% of surrendered Account Value
attributable to premiums paid. In Contract Years 4 through 5, this charge is 6%.
In Contract Years 6 through 7, this charge is 4%. In Contract Years 8 through 9,
this charge is 2%. After the ninth Contract Year, there is no charge. The
contingent deferred sales charge is imposed to cover a portion of the sales
expense incurred by Hartford in distributing the Contracts. This expense
includes agents commissions, advertising and the printing of prospectuses. See
"Deductions and Charges -- Contingent Deferred Sales Charge," page 12.
During the first nine Contract Years, an additional premium tax charge will
be imposed on surrender or partial withdrawals. See "Deductions and Charges --
Premium Tax Charges," page 12.
For a discussion of the tax consequences of surrender of the Contract or a
partial withdrawal, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 21.
- ---------------------------------------------------
DEATH BENEFIT
The Contracts provide for a Face Amount which is the minimum Death Benefit
under the Contract. The Death Benefit may be greater than the Face Amount. At
the death of the Insured, Hartford will pay the Death Proceeds to the
beneficiary. The Death Proceeds equal the Death Benefit less any Indebtedness
under the Contract. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page
12.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 7
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------------------------------------------------
ACCOUNT VALUE
The Account Value of the Contract will increase or decrease to reflect the
investment experience of the Funds applicable to the Contract and deductions for
the monthly Deduction Amount. There is no minimum guaranteed Account Value and
the Contract Owner bears the risk of the investment in the Funds. See "Contract
Benefits and Rights -- Account Value," page 13.
- ---------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT LOANS
A Contract Owner may obtain one or both of two types of cash loans from
Hartford. Both types of loans are secured by the Contract. At the time a loan is
requested, the aggregate amount of all loans (including the currently applied
for loan) may not exceed 90% of the difference of the Account Value less any
contingent deferred sales charge and due and unpaid Deduction Amount. See
"Contract Benefits and Rights -- Contract Loans," page 13.
- ---------------------------------------------------
LAPSE
Under certain circumstances a Contract may terminate if the Cash Surrender
Value on any Monthly Activity Date is less than the required Monthly Deduction
Amount. Hartford will give written notice to the Contract Owner and a 61-day
grace period during which additional amounts may be paid to continue the
Contract. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Contract Loans," page 13, and
"Lapse and Reinstatement," page 15.
- ---------------------------------------------------
CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
An applicant has a limited right to return his or her Contract for
cancellation. If the applicant returns the Contract, by mail or hand delivery,
to Hartford or to the agent who sold the Contract, to be cancelled within ten
days after delivery of the Contract to the applicant (in certain cases, this
free-look period is longer), Hartford will return to the applicant within seven
days thereafter the greater of the premiums paid for the Contract or the sum of
(1) the Account Value on the date the returned Contract is received by Hartford
or its agent and (2) any deductions under Contract or by the Funds for taxes,
charges or fees.
In addition, once the Contract is in effect it may be exchanged during the
first 24 months after its issuance for a permanent life insurance contract on
the life of the Insured without submitting proof of insurability. See "Contract
Benefits and Rights -- Cancellation and Exchange Rights," page 15.
- ---------------------------------------------------
TAX CONSEQUENCES
The current federal tax law generally excludes all death benefit payments
from the gross income of the Contract beneficiary. The Contracts generally will
be treated as modified endowment contracts. This status does not affect the
Contracts' classification as life insurance, nor does it affect the exclusion of
death benefit payments from gross income. However, loans, distributions or other
amounts received under a modified endowment contract are taxed to the extent of
accumulated income in the Contract (generally, the excess of Account Value over
premiums paid) and may be subject to a 10% penalty tax. See "Federal Tax
Considerations," page 21.
- ---------------------------------------------------

chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business which Hartford may
conduct.
- ---------------------------------------------------
FUNDS
The underlying investment for the Contracts are shares of Putnam Variable
Trust (formerly named Putnam Capital Manager Trust), an open-end series
investment company with multiple portfolios ("Funds"). The assets of each Sub-
Account of the Separate Account are invested exclusively in one of the Funds.
The underlying Funds corresponding to each Sub-Account and their investment
objectives are described below. Hartford reserves the right, subject to
compliance with the law, to offer additional funds with differing investment
objectives. There is no assurance that any of the Funds will achieve its stated
objectives.
PUTNAM VT ASIA PACIFIC GROWTH FUND seeks capital appreciation by investing
primarily in securities of companies located in Asia and the Pacific Basin. The
Fund's investments will normally include income common stocks, preferred stocks,
securities convertible into common stocks or preferred stocks, and warrants to
purchase common stocks or preferred stocks.
PUTNAM VT DIVERSIFIED INCOME FUND seeks high current income consistent with
capital preservation by investing in the following three sectors of the fixed
income securities markets: a U.S. Government Sector, a High Yield Sector (which
invests primarily in securities commonly known as "junk bonds"), and an
International Sector. See the special considerations for investments in high
yield securities described in the Fund prospectus.
PUTNAM VT GLOBAL ASSET ALLOCATION FUND seeks a high level of long-term total
return consistent with preservation of capital by investing in U.S. equities,
international equities, U.S. fixed income securities, and international fixed
income securities.
PUTNAM VT GLOBAL GROWTH FUND seeks capital appreciation through a globally
diversified portfolio of common stocks.
PUTNAM VT GROWTH AND INCOME FUND seeks capital growth and current income by
investing primarily in common stocks that offer potential for capital growth,
current income, or both.
PUTNAM VT HIGH YIELD FUND seeks high current income and, when consistent
with this objective, a secondary objective of capital growth, by investing
primarily in high-yielding, lower-rated fixed income securities, constituting a
portfolio which Putnam Management believes does not involve undue risk to income
or principal. See the special considerations for investments in high yield
securities described in the Fund prospectus.
PUTNAM VT INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND seeks capital appreciation by investing
primarily in equity securities of companies located in a country other than the
United States.
PUTNAM VT INTERNATIONAL GROWTH AND INCOME FUND seeks capital growth and
secondary objective of high current income by investing primarily in common
stocks that offer potential for capital growth and may, when consistent with its
investment objectives, invest in common stocks that offer potential for current
income. Under normal market conditions, the Fund expects to invest substantially
all of its assets in securities principally traded on markets outside the United
States.
PUTNAM VT INTERNATIONAL NEW OPPORTUNITIES FUND seeks a long-term capital
appreciation by investing in companies that have above-average growth prospects
due to the fundamental growth of their market sector. Under normal market
conditions, the Fund expects to invest substantially all of its total assets,
other than cash or short-term investments held pending investment, in common
stocks, preferred stocks, convertible preferred stocks, convertible bonds and
other equity securities principally traded in securities markets outside the
United States.
PUTNAM VT MONEY MARKET FUND seeks a high rate of current income as Putnam
Management believes is consistent with preservation of capital and maintenance
of liquidity by investing in high quality money market instruments.
PUTNAM VT NEW OPPORTUNITIES FUND seeks long-term capital appreciation by
investing principally in common stocks of companies in sectors of the economy
which Putnam Management believes possess above-average long-term growth
potential.
PUTNAM VT NEW VALUE FUND seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing
primarily in common stocks that Putnam Management believes are undervalued at
the time of purchase and have the potential for long-term capital appreciation.
PUTNAM VT U.S. GOVERNMENT AND HIGH QUALITY BOND FUND seeks current income
consistent with preservation of capital by investing primarily in securities
issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. Government or by
its agencies or instrumentalities and in other debt obligations rated at least A
by a nationally recognized securities rating agency such as Standard & Poor's or
Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or, if not rated, determined by Putnam
Management to be of comparable quality.
PUTNAM VT UTILITIES GROWTH AND INCOME FUND seeks capital growth and current
income by concentrating its investments in debt and equity securities issued by
companies in the public utilities industries.

PUTNAM VT VISTA FUND seeks capital appreciation by investing in a
diversified portfolio of common stocks which Putnam Management believes have the
potential for above-average capital appreciation.
PUTNAM VT VOYAGER FUND seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in
common stocks of companies that Putnam Management believes have potential for
capital appreciation that is significantly greater than that of market averages.
Putnam VT Asia Pacific Growth Fund, Putnam VT Diversified Income Fund,
Putnam VT Global Growth Fund, Putnam VT Growth and Income Fund, Putnam VT High
Yield Fund, Putnam VT International Growth Fund, Putnam VT International Growth
and Income Fund, Putnam VT International New Opportunities Fund, Putnam VT Money
Market Fund, Putnam VT New Opportunities Fund, Putnam VT New Value Fund, Putnam
VT Utilities Growth and Income Fund, Putnam VT Vista Fund, and Putnam VT Voyager
Fund are generally managed in styles similar to other open-end investment
companies which are managed by Putnam Management and whose shares are generally
offered to the public. These funds managed by by Putnam Management may, however,
employ different investment practices and may invest in securities different
from those in which their counterpart Funds invest, and consequently will not
have identical portfolios or experience identical investment results.
The Funds are available only to serve as the underlying investment for
variable annuity and variable life contracts. A full description of the Funds,
their investment objectives, policies and restrictions, risks, charges and
expenses and other aspects of their operation is contained in the accompanying
Fund's prospectus, which should be read in conjunction with this Prospectus
before investing, and in the Trust Statement of Additional Information which may
be ordered without charge from Putnam Investor Services, Inc.
It is conceivable that in the future it may be disadvantageous for variable
annuity separate accounts and variable life insurance separate accounts to
invest in the Funds simultaneously. Although Hartford and the Funds do not
currently foresee any such disadvantages either to variable annuity contract
owners or to variable life insurance policy owners, the Trust's Board of
Trustees intends to monitor events in order to identify any material conflicts
between such Contract Owners and policy owners and to determine what action, if
any, should be taken in response thereto. If the Fund's Board of Trustees were
to conclude that separate funds should be established for variable life and
variable annuity separate accounts, the variable annuity Contract holders would
not bear any expenses attendant upon establishment of such separate funds.
- ---------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT ADVISER
Putnam Management, One Post Office Square, Boston, MA 02109, serves as the
investment manager for the Funds. An affiliate, Putnam Advisory Company, Inc.,
manages domestic and foreign institutional accounts and mutual funds. Another
affiliate, Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company, provides investment advice to
institutional clients under its banking and fiduciary policies. Putnam
Management and its affiliates are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Marsh & McLennan
Companies, Inc., a publicly owned holding company whose principal businesses are
international insurance brokerage and employee benefit consulting.
Subject to the general oversight of the Trust's Board of Trustees, Putnam
Management manages the Funds' portfolios in accordance with their stated
investment objectives and policies, makes investment decisions for the Funds,
places orders to purchase and sell securities on behalf of the Funds and
administers the affairs of the Funds. For its services, the Funds pay Putnam
Management a quarterly fee. See the Trust prospectus accompanying this
Prospectus for a more complete description of Putnam Management and the
respective fees of the Funds.
- ---------------------------------------------------
THE CONTRACT
- --------------------------------
APPLICATION FOR A CONTRACT
Individuals wishing to purchase a Contract must submit an application to
Hartford. A Contract will be issued only on the lives of insureds age 90 and
under who supply evidence of insurability satisfactory to Hartford. Acceptance
is subject to Hartford's underwriting rules, and Hartford reserves the right to
reject an application for any reason. IF AN APPLICATION FOR A CONTRACT IS
REJECTED, THEN YOUR INITIAL PREMIUM WILL BE RETURNED ALONG WITH AN ADDITIONAL
AMOUNT FOR INTEREST, BASED ON THE CURRENT RATE BEING CREDITED BY HARTFORD. No
change in the terms or conditions of a Contract will be made without the consent
of the Contract Owner.
The Contract will be effective on the Contract Date only after Hartford has
received all outstanding delivery requirements and received the initial premium.
The Contract Date is the date used to determine all future cyclical transactions
on the Contract, e.g., Monthly Activity Date, Contract Months and Contract
Years. The Contract Date may be prior to, or the same as, the date the Contract
is issued ("Issue Date").
If the Coverage Amount is over then current limits established by Hartford,
the initial payment will not be accepted with the application. In other cases
where Hartford receives the initial payment with the application, Hartford will
provide fixed conditional insurance during
<PAGE>
10 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
underwriting according to the terms of a conditional receipt. The fixed
conditional insurance will be the insurance applied for, up to a maximum that
varies by age. If no fixed conditional insurance was in effect, on Contract
delivery Hartford will require a sufficient payment to place the insurance in
force.
- ---------------------------------------------------
PREMIUMS
The Contract permits the Contract Owner to pay a large single premium and,
subject to restrictions, additional premiums. The Contract Owner may choose a
minimum initial premium of 80%, 90% or 100% of the Guideline Single Premium
(based on the Face Amount). Under current underwriting rules, which are subject
to change, applicants between ages 45 and 80 who pay an initial premium of 100%
of the Guideline Single Premium (subject to then current premium limits) are
eligible for simplified underwriting without a medical examination if they meet
simplified underwriting standards as evidenced in their responses in the
application. For Contract Owners who pay an initial premium of 80% or 90% of the
Guideline Single Premium or who are below age 45 or above age 80, standard
underwriting applies, except that substandard underwriting applies only in those
cases that represent substandard risks according to customary underwriting
guidelines. Additional premiums are allowed if they do not cause the Contract to
fail to meet the definition of a life insurance contract under Section 7702 of
the Code. Hartford may require evidence of insurability for any additional
premiums which increase the Coverage Amount. Generally, the minimum initial
premium Hartford will accept is $10,000. Hartford may accept less than $10,000
under certain circumstances. No premium will be accepted which does not meet the
tax qualification guidelines for life insurance under the Code.
- ---------------------------------------------------
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS
Within three business days of receipt of a completed application and the
initial premium at Hartford's Home Office, Hartford will allocate the entire
premium to the PCM Money Market Fund Sub-Account. After the expiration of the
Right To Cancel Period, the Account Value in the PCM Money Market Fund
Sub-Account will be allocated among the Funds, in whole percentages, to purchase
Accumulation Units in the applicable Sub-Accounts as the Contract Owner directs
in the application. Premiums received on or after the expiration of the Right to
Cancel Period will be allocated among the Sub-Accounts to purchase Accumulation
Units in such Sub-Accounts as directed by the Contract Owner or, in the absence
of directions, as specified in the original application. The number of
Accumulation Units in each Sub-Account to be credited to a Contract (including
the initial allocation to the PCM Money Market Fund Sub-Account) is determined
first by multiplying the premium by the percentage to be allocated to each Fund
to determine the portion to be invested in the Sub-Account. Each portion to be
invested in each Sub-Account is then divided by the Accumulation Unit Value of
that particular Sub-Account next computed after receipt of the payment.
- ---------------------------------------------------
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES
The Accumulation Unit Value for each Sub-Account will vary to reflect the
investment experience of the applicable Fund and will be determined on each
Valuation Day by multiplying the Accumulation Unit Value of the particular
Sub-Account on the preceding Valuation Day by a "Net Investment Factor" for that
Sub-Account for the Valuation Period then ended. The Net Investment Factor for
each Sub-Account is the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund at
the end of the Valuation Period (plus the per share dividends or capital gains
by that Fund if the ex dividend date occurs in the Valuation Period then ended)
divided by the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund at the
beginning of the Valuation Period. Applicants should refer to the Funds
prospectus accompanying this Prospectus for a description of how the assets of
each Fund are valued, since such determination has a direct bearing on the
Accumulation Unit Value of the Sub-Account and therefore the Account Value of a
Contract. See also, "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Account Value," page 13.
All valuations in connection with a Contract, e.g., with respect to
determining Account Value and Cash Surrender Value and in connection with
Contract loans, or calculation of Death Benefits, or with respect to determining
the number of Accumulation Units to be credited to a Contract with each premium,
other than the initial premium, will be made on the date the request or payment
is received by Hartford at its Home Office if such date is a Valuation Day;
otherwise such determination will be made on the next succeeding date which is a
Valuation Day.
- ---------------------------------------------------
DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
- --------------------------------
MONTHLY DEDUCTIONS
On the Contract Date, and on each Monthly Activity Date after the Contract
Date, Hartford will deduct an amount ("Deduction Amount") to cover charges and
expenses incurred in connection with a Contract. Each monthly Deduction Amount
will be deducted pro rata from each Sub-Account attributable to the Contract
such that the proportion of Account Value of the Contract 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
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 11
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contract may lapse. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and
Reinstatement," page 15. The following is a summary of the monthly deductions
and charges which constitute the Deduction Amount:
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 Contract 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.
This charge is a guaranteed maximum monthly rate multiplied by the Coverage
Amount on the Contract Date or any Monthly Activity Date. For standard risks,
the guaranteed cost of insurance rate is based on the 1980 Commissioners
Standard Ordinary Mortality Table, age last birthday. (Unisex rates may be
required in some states.) A table of guaranteed cost of insurance rates per
$1,000 will be included in each Contract; however, Hartford reserves the right
to use rates less than those shown in the table. Substandard risks will be
charged at a higher cost of insurance rate that will not exceed rates based on a
multiple of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality Table, age last
birthday. The multiple will be based on the insured's substandard rating.
The Coverage Amount is first set on the Contract Date and then on each
Monthly Activity Date. On such days, it is the Face Amount less the Account
Value subject to a Minimum Coverage Amount. The Coverage Amount remains level
between the Monthly Activity Dates.
The Coverage Amount may be adjusted to continue to qualify the Contracts as
life insurance contracts under the current federal tax law. Under that law, the
Minimum Coverage Amount is a stated percentage of the Account Value of the
Contract 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 less the Account Value ($50,000), the Coverage Amount for the
Contract Month is $75,000. (For an explanation of the Death Benefit, see
"Contract Benefits and Rights," page 12.)
Because the Account Value and, as a result, the Coverage Amount under a
Contract may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance charge may also
vary on each Monthly Activity Date.
TAX EXPENSE CHARGE: Hartford will deduct monthly from the Account Value a
tax expense charge equal to an annual rate of 0.40% for the first ten Contract
Years. This charge compensates Hartford for premium taxes imposed by various
states and local jurisdictions and for federal taxes imposed under Section 848
of the Code. The charge includes a premium tax deduction of 0.25% and a federal
tax deduction of 0.15%. The 0.25% premium tax deduction over ten Contract Years
approximates Hartford's average expenses for state and local premium taxes
(2.5%). Premium taxes vary, ranging from zero to more than 4.0%. The premium tax
deduction is made whether or not any premium tax applies. The deduction may be
higher or lower than the premium tax imposed. However, Hartford does not expect
to make a profit from this deduction. The 0.15% federal tax deduction helps
reimburse Hartford for approximate expenses incurred from federal taxes under
Section 848 of the Code.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE: Hartford will deduct monthly from the Account Value
attributable to the Separate Account an administrative charge equal to an annual
rate of 0.40%. This charge compensates Hartford for administrative expenses
incurred in the administration of the Separate Account and the Contracts.
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE: Hartford will deduct monthly from the
Account Value attributable to the Separate Account a charge equal to an annual
rate of 0.90% for the mortality risks and expense risks Hartford assumes in
relation to the variable portion of the Contracts. The mortality risk assumed is
that the cost of insurance charges specified in the Contract will be
insufficient to meet claims. Hartford also assumes a risk that the Face Amount
(the minimum Death Benefit) will exceed the Coverage Amount on the date of death
plus the Account Value on the date Hartford receives written notice of death.
The expense risk assumed is that expenses incurred in issuing and administering
the Contracts will exceed the administrative charges set in the Contract.
Hartford may profit from the mortality and expense risk charge and may use any
profits for any
<PAGE>
12 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
proper purpose, including any difference between the cost it incurs in
distributing the Contracts and the proceeds of the contingent deferred sales
charge. The mortality and expense risk charge is deducted while the Contract is
in force, including the duration of a payment option.
- ---------------------------------------------------
ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE
If the Account Value on a Contract Anniversary is less than $50,000,
Hartford will deduct on such date an Annual Maintenance Fee of $30. This fee
will help reimburse Hartford for administrative and maintenance costs of the
Contracts. The sum of the monthly administrative charges and the annual
maintenance fee will not exceed the cost Hartford incurs in providing
administrative services under the Contracts.
- ---------------------------------------------------
TAXES CHARGED AGAINST THE
SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Currently, no charge is made to the Separate Account for federal income
taxes that may be attributable to the Separate Account. Hartford may, however,
make such a charge in the future. Charges for other taxes, if any, attributable
to the Separate Account may also be made.
- ---------------------------------------------------
CHARGES AGAINST THE FUNDS
The Separate Account purchases shares of the Funds at net asset value. The
net asset value of the Fund shares reflects investment advisory fees and
administrative expenses already deducted from the assets of the Funds. These
charges are described in the Funds' prospectus accompanying this Prospectus.
- ---------------------------------------------------
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
Upon surrender of the Contract and partial withdrawals in excess of the
Annual Withdrawal Amount, a contingent deferred sales charge may be assessed. In
Contract Years 1 through 3, this charge is 7.5% of surrendered Account Value
attributable to premiums paid. In Contract Years 4 through 5, this charge is 6%.
In Contract Years 6 through 7, this charge is 4%. In Contract Years 8 through 9,
this charge is 2%. After the ninth Contract Year, there is no charge.
In determining the contingent deferred sales charge and the additional
premium tax charge discussed below, any surrender or partial withdrawal during
the first ten Contract Years will be deemed first from premium payments and then
from earnings. If an amount equal to all premiums paid has been withdrawn, no
charge will be assessed on a withdrawal of the remaining Account Value.
The contingent deferred sales charge is imposed to cover a portion of the
sales expense incurred by Hartford in distributing the Contracts. This expense
includes agents commissions, advertising and the printing of prospectuses.
See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Amount Payable on Surrender of the
Contract," page 14.
- ---------------------------------------------------
PREMIUM TAX CHARGE
During the first nine Contract Years, an additional premium tax charge will
be imposed on surrender or partial withdrawals. The additional premium tax
charge is shown below, as a percent of Account Value, at the end of each
Contract Year:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

7 0.75%

</TABLE>
After the ninth Contract Year, no additional premium tax charge will be
imposed.
- ---------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT BENEFITS AND RIGHTS
- -------------------------------- DEATH BENEFIT
While in force, the Contract provides for the payment of the Death Proceeds
to the named beneficiary when the Insured under the Contract dies. The Death
Proceeds payable to the beneficiary equal the Death Benefit less any loans
outstanding. The Death Benefit equals the greater of (1) the Face Amount or (2)
the Account Value multiplied by a specified percentage. The percentages vary
according to the attained age of the Insured and are specified in the Contract.
Therefore, an increase in Account Value may increase the Death Benefit. However,
because the Death Benefit will never be less than the Face Amount, a decrease in
Account Value may decrease the Death Benefit, but never below the Face Amount.
EXAMPLES:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
A B
---------- ----------
<S> <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>
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 13
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Example A, the Death Benefit equals $116,250, i.e., the greater of
$100,000 (the Face Amount) or $116,250 (the Account Value at the Date of Death
of $46,500, multiplied by the specified percentage of 250%). This amount, less
any outstanding loans, constitutes the Death Proceeds which Hartford would pay
to the beneficiary.
In Example B, the death benefit is $100,000, i.e., the greater of $100,000
(the Face Amount) or $85,000 (the Account Value of $34,000, multiplied by the
specified percentage of 250%).
All or part of the Death Proceeds may be paid in cash or applied under a
"Payment Option." See "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 16.
- ---------------------------------------------------
ACCOUNT VALUE
The Account Value of a Contract will be computed on each Valuation Day. The
Account Value will vary to reflect the investment experience of the Funds, the
value of the Loan Account and the monthly Deduction Amounts. There is no minimum
guaranteed Account Value.
The Account Value of a particular Contract is related to the net asset value
of the Funds to which premiums on the Contract have been allocated. The Account
Value on any Valuation Day is calculated by multiplying the number of
Accumulation Units credited to the Contract in each Sub-Account as of the
Valuation Day by the Accumulation Unit Value of that Sub-Account, and then
summing the result for all the Sub-Accounts credited to the Contract and the
value of the Loan Account. See "The Contract -- Accumulation Unit Values," page
10.
- ---------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER OF ACCOUNT VALUE
While the Contract remains in effect and subject to Hartford's transfer
rules then in effect, the Contract Owner may request that part or all of the
Account Value of a particular Sub-Account be transferred to other Sub-Accounts.
Hartford reserves the right to restrict the number of such transfers to no more
than 12 per Contract Year, with no two transfers being made on consecutive
Valuation Days. However, there are no restrictions on the number of transfers at
the present time. Transfers may be made by written request or by calling toll
free 1-800-231-5453. Transfers by telephone may be made by the agent of record
or by the attorney-in-fact pursuant to a power of attorney. Telephone transfers
may not be permitted in some states. The policy of Hartford and its agents and
affiliates is that they will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting
upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. Hartford will employ
reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are
genuine; otherwise, Hartford may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or
fraudulent instructions. The procedures Hartford follows for transactions
initiated by telephone include requiring callers to provide certain information
for identification purposes. All transfer instructions by telephone are tape
recorded.
Hartford may modify the right to reallocate Account Value among the
Sub-Accounts if Hartford determines, in its sole discretion, that the exercise
of that right by one or more Contract Owners is, or would be, to the
disadvantage of other Contract Owners. Any modification could be applied to
transfers to or from some or all of the Sub-Accounts, and could include, but not
be limited to, the requirement of a minimum period between each transfer, not
accepting transfer requests of an agent acting under the power of attorney on
behalf of more than one Contract Owner, or limiting the dollar amount that may
be transferred among the Sub-Accounts at one time. These restrictions may be
applied in any manner reasonably designed to prevent any use of the transfer
right that Hartford considers to be disadvantageous to other Contract Owners.
As a result of a transfer, the number of Accumulation Units credited to the
Sub-Account from which the transfer is made will be reduced by the number
obtained by dividing the amount transferred by the Accumulation Unit Value of
that Sub-Account on the Valuation Day Hartford receives the transfer request.
The number of Accumulation Units credited to the Sub-Account to which the
transfer is made will be increased by the number obtained by dividing the amount
transferred by the Accumulation Unit Value of that Sub-Account on the Valuation
Day Hartford receives the transfer request.
- ---------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT LOANS
While the Contract is in effect, a Contract Owner may obtain, without the
consent of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not
irrevocable), one or both of two types of cash loans from Hartford. Both types
of loans are secured by the Contract. The aggregate loans (including the
currently applied for loan) may not exceed at the time a loan is requested 90%
of the Account Value less any contingent deferred sales charge and due and
unpaid Deduction Amount.
The loan amount will be transferred pro rata from each Sub-Account
attributable to the Contract (unless the Contract Owner specifies otherwise) to
the Loan Account. The amounts allocated to the Loan Account will bear interest
at a rate of 4% per annum (6% for "Preferred Loans"). The amount of the Loan
Account that equals the difference between the Account Value and the total of
all premiums paid under the Contract is considered a "Preferred Loan." The loan
interest rate that Hartford will charge on all loans is 6% per annum. The
difference between the value of the Loan Account and the Indebtedness will be
transferred on a pro-rata basis from the Sub-
<PAGE>
14 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accounts to the Loan Account on each Monthly Activity Date. Before advancing the
loan amount Hartford may withhold an amount sufficient to pay interest on total
loan to the end of the Contract Year and any monthly Deduction Amounts due on or
before the next Contract Anniversary. The proceeds of a loan will be delivered
to the Contract Owner within seven business days of Hartford's receipt of the
loan request.
If the aggregate outstanding loan(s) secured by the Contract exceeds the
Account Value of the Contract less any contingent deferred sales charges and due
and unpaid Deduction Amount, Hartford will give written notice to the Contract
Owner that unless Hartford receives an additional payment within 61 days to
reduce the aggregate outstanding loan(s) secured by the Contract, the Contract
may lapse.
All or any part of any loan secured by a Contract may be repaid while the
Contract is still in effect. When loan repayments or interest payments are made,
they will be allocated among the Sub-Account(s) in the same percentage as
premiums are allocated (unless the Contract Owner requests a different
allocation) and an amount equal to the payment will be deducted from the Loan
Account. Any outstanding loan at the end of a Grace Period must be repaid before
the Contract will be reinstated. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and
Reinstatement," page 15.
A loan, whether or not repaid, will have a permanent effect on the Account
Value because the investment results of each Sub-Account will apply only to the
amount remaining in such Sub-Accounts. The longer a loan is outstanding, the
greater the effect is likely to be. The effect could be favorable or
unfavorable. If the Sub-Accounts earn more than 4% per annum (the annual
interest rate for amounts held in the Loan Account), a Contract Owner's Account
Value will not increase as rapidly as it would have had no loan been made. If
the Sub-Accounts earn less than 4% per annum, the Contract Owner's Account Value
will be greater than it would have been had no loan been made. Also, if not
repaid, the aggregate outstanding loan(s) will reduce the Death Proceeds and
Cash Surrender Value otherwise payable.
- ---------------------------------------------------
AMOUNT PAYABLE ON SURRENDER
OF THE CONTRACT
While the Contract is in effect, a Contract Owner may elect, without the
consent of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not
irrevocable), to fully surrender the Contract. Upon surrender, the Contract
Owner will receive the Cash Surrender Value determined as of the day Hartford
receives the Contract Owner's written request or the date requested by the
Contract Owner whichever is later. The Cash Surrender Value equals the Account
Value, less any contingent deferred sales charges and additional premium tax
charge, and all Indebtedness. Hartford will pay the Cash Surrender Value of the
Contract within seven days of receipt by Hartford of the written request or on
the effective surrender date requested by the Contract Owner, whichever is
later. The Contract will terminate on the date of receipt of the written request
or the date the Contract Owner requests the surrender to be effective, whichever
is later. For a discussion of the tax consequences of surrendering the Contract,
see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 21.
If the Contract Owner chooses to apply the surrender proceeds to a payment
option (see "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 16), the contingent
deferred sales 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 contingent deferred sales charge. However, the
additional premium tax charge, if applicable, will be deducted from the
surrender proceeds to be applied, and amounts withdrawn from Option 1, Option 5
or Option 6 will be subject to the contingent deferred sales charge, if
applicable.
- ---------------------------------------------------
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
While the Contract is in effect, a Contract Owner may elect, by written
request, to make partial withdrawals from the Cash Surrender Value. The Cash
Surrender Value, after partial withdrawal, must at least equal Hartford's
minimum amount rules then in effect; otherwise, the request will be treated as a
request for full surrender. The partial withdrawal will be deducted pro rata
from each Sub-Account, unless the Contract Owner instructs otherwise. The Face
Amount will be reduced proportionate to the reduction in the Account Value due
to the partial withdrawal. Partial withdrawals in excess of the Annual
Withdrawal Amount will be subject to the contingent deferred sales charge and
any additional premium tax charges. See "Deductions and Charges -- Contingent
Deferred Sales Charge, Premium Tax Charge," page 12. For a discussion of the tax
consequences of partial withdrawals, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 21.
- ---------------------------------------------------
BENEFITS AT MATURITY
If the Insured is living on the "Maturity Date" (the anniversary of the
Contract Date on which the Insured is age 100), on surrender of the Contract to
Hartford, Hartford will pay to the Contract Owner the Cash Surrender Value. In
such case, the Contract will terminate and Hartford will have no further
obligations under the Contract. (The Maturity Date may be extended by rider
where approved, but see "Income Taxation of Contract Benefits," page 21.)
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 15
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------------------------------------------------
LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
The Contract will remain in effect until the Cash Surrender Value is
insufficient to cover a Deduction Amount due on a Monthly Activity Date.
Hartford will notify the Contract Owner of the deficiency in writing and will
provide a 61 day period ("Grace Period") to pay an amount sufficient to cover
the Deduction Amount(s) due. The notice will indicate the amount that must be
paid.
The Contract will continue through the Grace Period, but if no payment is
forthcoming it will terminate at the end of the Grace Period. If the person
insured under the Contract dies during the Grace Period, the Death Proceeds
payable under the Contract will be reduced by the Deduction Amount(s) due and
unpaid. See "Contract Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 12.
If the Contract lapses, the Contract Owner may apply for reinstatement of
the Contract by payment of the reinstatement premium (and any applicable
charges) shown in the Contract. A request for reinstatement may be made within
five years of lapse. If a loan was outstanding at the time of lapse, Hartford
will require repayment of the loan before permitting reinstatement. In addition,
Hartford reserves the right to require evidence of insurability satisfactory to
Hartford.
- ---------------------------------------------------
CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
An applicant has a limited right to return a Contract for cancellation. If
the Contract is returned, by mail or personal delivery to Hartford or to the
agent who sold the Contract, to be cancelled within ten days after delivery of
the Contract to the Contract Owner (a longer free-look period is provided in
certain cases), Hartford will return to the applicant within seven days the
greater of premiums paid for the Contract or the sum of (1) the Account Value on
the date the returned Contract is received by Hartford or its agent and (2) any
deductions under the Contract or by the Funds for taxes, charges or fees.
Once the Contract is in effect, it may be exchanged during the first 24
months after its issuance, for a non-variable flexible premium adjustable life
insurance contract offered by Hartford (or an affiliated company) on the life of
the Insured. No evidence of insurability will be required. The new contract will
have, at the election of the Contract Owner, either the same Coverage Amount
under the exchanged Contract 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 Contract. If a Contract loan was outstanding, the entire loan must
be repaid. There may be a cash adjustment required on the exchange.
- ---------------------------------------------------
SUSPENSION OF VALUATION,
PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS
Hartford will suspend all procedures requiring valuation (including
transfers, surrenders and loans) on any day a national stock exchange is closed
or trading is restricted due to an existing emergency as defined by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, or on any day the Securities and Exchange
Commission has ordered that the right of surrender of the Contracts be suspended
for the protection of Contract Owners, until such condition has ended.
- ---------------------------------------------------
LAST SURVIVOR CONTRACTS
The Contracts are offered on both a single life and a "last survivor" basis.
Contracts sold on a last survivor basis operate in a manner almost identical to
the single life version. The most important difference is that the last survivor
version involves two Insureds and the Death Proceeds are paid on the death of
the last surviving Insured. The other significant differences between the last
survivor and single life versions are listed below.
1. The cost of insurance charges under the last survivor Contracts 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 to die. See the last survivor illustrations in
"Appendix B," page 27.
2. To qualify for simplified underwriting under a last survivor Contract, both
Insureds must meet the simplified underwriting standards.
3. For a last survivor Contract to be reinstated, both Insureds must be alive
on the date of reinstatement.
4. The Contract provisions regarding misstatement of age or sex, suicide and
incontestability apply to either Insured.
5. Additional tax disclosures applicable to last survivor Contracts are
provided in "Federal Tax Considerations," page 21.
- ---------------------------------------------------
OTHER MATTERS
- -------------------------------- VOTING RIGHTS
In accordance with its interpretation of presently applicable law, Hartford
will vote the shares of the Funds at regular and special meetings of the
shareholders of the Funds in accordance with instructions from Contract Owners
(or the assignee of the Contract, as the case may be) having a voting interest
in the Separate Account. The number of shares held in the Separate Account which
are
<PAGE>
16 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
attributable to each Contract Owner is determined by dividing the Contract
Owner's interest in each Sub-Account by the net asset value of the applicable
shares of the Funds. Hartford will vote shares for which no instructions have
been given and shares which are not attributable to Contract Owners (i.e.,
shares owned by Hartford) in the same proportion as it votes shares for which it
has received instructions. If the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any rule
promulgated thereunder should be amended, however, or if Hartford's present
interpretation should change and, as a result, Hartford determines it is
permitted to vote the shares of the Funds in its own right, it may elect to do
so.
The voting interests of the Contract Owner (or the assignee) in the Funds
will be determined as follows: Contract Owners may cast one vote for each full
or fractional Accumulation Unit owned under the Contract and allocated to a
Sub-Account the assets of which are invested in the particular Fund on the
record date for the shareholder meeting for that Fund. If, however, a Contract
Owner has taken a loan secured by the Contract, amounts transferred from the
Sub-Account(s) to the Loan Account in connection with the loan (see "Contract
Benefits and Rights -- Contract Loans," page 13) will not be considered in
determining the voting interests of the Contract Owner. Contract Owners should
review the Funds prospectus accompanying this Prospectus to determine matters on
which shareholders may vote.
Hartford may, when required by state insurance regulatory authorities,
disregard voting instructions if the instructions require that the shares be
voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or investment objective
of one or more of the Funds or to approve or disapprove an investment advisory
contract for the Funds.
In addition, Hartford itself may disregard voting instructions in favor of
changes, initiated by a Contract Owner, in the investment policy or the
investment adviser of the Funds if Hartford reasonably disapproves of such
changes. A change would be disapproved only if the proposed change is contrary
to state law or prohibited by state regulatory authorities. If Hartford does
disregard voting instructions, a summary of that action and the reasons for such
action will be included in the next periodic report to Contract Owners.
- ---------------------------------------------------
STATEMENTS TO CONTRACT OWNERS
Hartford will maintain all records relating to the Separate Account and the
Sub-Accounts. At least once each Contract Year, Hartford will send to Contract
Owners a statement showing the Coverage Amount and the Account Value of the
Contract (indicating the number of Accumulation Units credited to the Contract
in each Sub-Account and the corresponding Accumulation Unit Value), and any
outstanding loans secured by the Contract as of the date of the statement. The
statement will also show premium paid and Deduction Amounts under the Contract
since the last statement, and any other information required by any applicable
law or regulation.
- ---------------------------------------------------
LIMIT ON RIGHT TO CONTEST
Hartford may not contest the validity of the Contract after it has been in
effect during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the Issue Date. If the
Contract is reinstated, the two-year period is measured from the date of
reinstatement. Any increase in the Coverage Amount as a result of a premium is
contestable for two years from its effective date. In addition, if the Insured
commits suicide in the two-year period, or such period as specified in state
law, the benefit payable will be limited to the Account Value less any
Indebtedness.
- ---------------------------------------------------
MISSTATEMENT AS TO AGE AND SEX
If the age or sex of the Insured is incorrectly stated, the Death Benefit
will be appropriately adjusted as specified in the Contract.
- ---------------------------------------------------
PAYMENT OPTIONS
The surrender proceeds or Death Proceeds under the Contracts may be paid in
a lump sum or may be applied to one of Hartford's payment options. The minimum
amount that may be applied under a payment option is $5,000 unless Hartford
consents to a lesser amount. Under Options 2, 3 and 4, no surrender or partial
withdrawals are permitted after payments commence. Full surrender or partial
withdrawals may be made from Option 1 or Option 6, but they are subject to the
contingent deferred sales charge, if applicable. Only a full surrender is
allowed from Option 5. A surrender from Option 5 will also be subject to the
contingent deferred sales charge, if applicable.
Hartford will pay interest of at least 3 1/2% per year on the Death Proceeds
from the date of the Insured's death to the date payment is made or a payment
option is elected. At such times, the proceeds are not subject to the investment
experience of the Separate Account.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 17
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following options are available under the Contracts (Hartford may offer
other payment options):
OPTION 1 -- Interest Income
This option offers payments of interest, at the rate Hartford declares, on
the amount applied under this option. The interest rate will never be less than
3 1/2% per year.
OPTION 2 -- Life Annuity
A life annuity is an annuity payable during the lifetime of the payee and
terminating with the last payment preceding the death of the payee. This option
offers the largest payment amount of any of the life annuity options since there
is no guarantee of a minimum number of payments nor a provision for a death
benefit payable to a beneficiary.
It would be possible under this option for a payee to receive only one
annuity payment if he died prior to the due date of the second annuity payment,
two if he died before the date of the third annuity payment, etc.
OPTION 3 -- Life Annuity with 120, 180 or 240 Monthly Payments Certain
This annuity option is an annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of the
payee with the provision that payments will be made for a minimum of 120, 180 or
240 months, as elected. If, at the death of the payee, payments have been made
for less than the minimum elected number of months, then the present value as of
the date of the payee's death, of any remaining guaranteed payments will be paid
in one sum to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated unless other
provisions have been made and approved by Hartford.
OPTION 4 -- Joint and Last Survivor Annuity
An annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of the payee and a
designated second person, and thereafter during the remaining lifetime of the
survivor, ceasing with the last payment prior to the death of the survivor.
Based on the options currently offered by Hartford, the payee may elect that the
payment to the survivor be less than the payment made during the joint lifetime
of the payee and a designated second person.
It would be possible under this option for a payee and designated second
person to receive only one payment in the event of the common or simultaneous
death of the parties prior to the due date for the second payment and so on.
OPTION 5 -- Payments for a Designated Period
An amount payable monthly for the number of years selected which may be from
five to 30 years. Under this option, you may, at any time, request a full
surrender and receive, within seven days, the termination value of the Contract
as determined by Hartford.
In the event of the payee's death prior to the end of the designated period,
the present value as of the date of the payee's death, of any remaining
guaranteed payments will be paid in one sum to the beneficiary or beneficiaries
designated unless other provisions have been made and approved by Hartford.
Option 5 is an option that does not involve life contingencies.
OPTION 6 -- Death Proceeds Remaining with Hartford
Proceeds from the Death Benefit left with Hartford. These proceeds will
remain in the Sub-Accounts to which they were allocated at the time of death
unless the beneficiary elects to reallocate them. Full or partial withdrawals
may be made at any time.
VARIABLE AND FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS: When an annuity is effected, unless
otherwise specified, the surrender proceeds or Death Proceeds held in the
Sub-Accounts will be applied to provide a variable annuity based on the pro rata
amount in the various Sub-Accounts. Fixed annuities options are also available.
YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHETHER THE ALLOCATION OF PROCEEDS AMONG SUB-ACCOUNTS OF THE
SEPARATE ACCOUNT FOR YOUR ANNUITY PAYMENTS ARE BASED ON THE INVESTMENT
ALTERNATIVE BEST SUITED TO YOUR RETIREMENT NEEDS.
VARIABLE ANNUITY: The Contract contains tables indicating the minimum dollar
amount of the first monthly payment under the optional variable forms of annuity
for each $1,000 of value of a Sub-Account. The first monthly payment varies
according to the form and type of variable payment annuity selected. The
Contract contains variable payment annuity tables derived from the 1983a
Individual Annuity Mortality Table, with ages set back one year and with an
assumed investment rate ("A.I.R.") of 5% per annum. The total first monthly
variable annuity payment is determined by multiplying the proceeds value
(expressed in thousands of dollars) of a Sub-Account by the amount of the first
monthly payment per $1,000 of value obtained from the tables in the Contracts.
The amount of the first monthly variable annuity payment is divided by the
value of an annuity unit (an accounting unit of measure used to calculate the
value of annuity payments) for the appropriate Sub-Account no earlier than the
close of business on the fifth Valuation Day preceding the day on which the
payment is due in order to determine the number of annuity units represented by
the first payment. This number of annuity units remains fixed during the annuity
payment period, and in each subsequent
<PAGE>
18 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
month the dollar amount of the variable annuity payment is determined by
multiplying this fixed number of annuity units by the current annuity unit
value.
LEVEL VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS WOULD BE PRODUCED IF THE INVESTMENT RATE
REMAINED CONSTANT AND EQUAL TO THE A.I.R. IN FACT, PAYMENTS WILL VARY UP OR DOWN
AS THE INVESTMENT RATE VARIES UP OR DOWN RELATIVE TO THE A.I.R.
FIXED ANNUITY: Fixed annuity payments are determined by multiplying the
amount applied to the annuity by a rate, to be determined by Hartford, which is
no less than the rate specified in the fixed payment annuity tables in the
Contract. The annuity payment will remain level for the duration of the annuity.
Hartford will make any other arrangements for income payments as may be
agreed on.
- ---------------------------------------------------
BENEFICIARY
The applicant names the beneficiary in the application for the Contract. The
Contract Owner may change the beneficiary (unless irrevocably named) during the
Insured's lifetime by written request to Hartford. If no beneficiary is living
when the Insured dies, the Death Proceeds will be paid to the Contract Owner if
living; otherwise to the Contract Owner's estate.
- ---------------------------------------------------
ASSIGNMENT
The Contract may be assigned as collateral for a loan or other obligation.
Hartford is not responsible for any payment made or action taken before receipt
of written notice of such assignment. Proof of interest must be filed with any
claim under a collateral assignment.
- ---------------------------------------------------
DIVIDENDS
No dividends will be paid under the Contracts.

- ---------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACTS
Hartford intends to sell the Contracts in all jurisdictions where it is
licensed to do business. The Contracts will be sold by life insurance sales
representatives who represent Hartford and who are registered representatives of
Hartford Equity Sales Company, Inc., ("HESCO") or certain other independent
registered broker-dealers. Any sales representative or employee will have been
qualified to sell variable life insurance contracts under applicable federal and
state laws. Each broker-dealer is registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and all are members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") serves as Principal
Underwriter for the securities issued with respect to the Separate Account. Both
HESCO and HSD are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Hartford. The principal business
address of HESCO and HSD is the same as that of Hartford.
The maximum sales commission payable to Hartford agents, independent
registered insurance brokers and other registered broker-dealers is 7.0% of
initial and subsequent premiums. From time to time, Hartford may pay or permit
other promotional incentives, in cash or credit or other compensation.
Hartford may provide information on various topics to Contract Owners and
prospective Contract 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
Contracts and the characteristics of and market for such alternatives.
- ---------------------------------------------------
SAFEKEEPING OF THE SEPARATE
ACCOUNT'S ASSETS
The assets of the Separate Account are held by Hartford. The assets of the
Separate Account are kept physically segregated and held separate and apart from
the General Account of Hartford. Hartford maintains records of all purchases and
redemptions of shares of the Fund. Additional protection for the assets of the
Separate Account is afforded by Hartford's blanket fidelity bond issued by Aetna
Casualty and Surety Company, in the aggregate of $50

million, covering all of the officers and employees of Hartford.
- ---------------------------------------------------
FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
- -------------------------------- GENERAL
SINCE THE TAX LAW IS COMPLEX AND SINCE TAX CONSEQUENCES WILL VARY ACCORDING
TO THE ACTUAL STATUS OF THE CONTRACT OWNER INVOLVED, LEGAL AND TAX ADVICE MAY BE
NEEDED BY A PERSON, EMPLOYER OR OTHER ENTITY CONTEMPLATING THE PURCHASE OF A
CONTRACT DESCRIBED HEREIN.
It should be understood that any detailed description of the federal income
tax consequences regarding the purchase of the Contracts cannot be made in this
Prospectus and that special tax rules may be applicable with respect to certain
purchase situations not discussed herein. In addition, no attempt is made here
to consider any applicable state or other tax laws. For detailed information, a
qualified tax adviser should always be consulted. This discussion of federal tax
considerations is based upon Hartford's understanding of existing federal income
tax laws as they are currently interpreted.
- ---------------------------------------------------
TAXATION OF HARTFORD AND
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Separate Account is taxed as a part of Hartford which is taxed as a life
insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"). Accordingly, the Separate Account will not be taxed as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Investment income
and realized capital gains on the assets of the Separate Account (the underlying
Funds) are reinvested and are taken into account in determining the value of the
Accumulation Units (see "Contract Benefits and Right -- Account Value," page
13). As a result, such investment income and realized capital gains are
automatically applied to increase reserves under the Contract.
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 CONTRACT BENEFITS
For federal income tax purposes, the Contracts 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 contract owner is generally not taxed on
increments in the contract value until the contract is partially or completely
surrendered. Section 7702 limits the amount of premiums that may be invested in
a Contract that is treated as life insurance. Hartford intends to monitor
premium levels to assure compliance with the Section 7702 requirements.
During the first 15 Contract 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 Contract.
The Maturity Date Extension Rider allows a Contract Owner to extend the
Maturity Date to the date of the Insured's death. If the Maturity Date of the
Contract is extended by rider, Hartford believes that the Contract 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 Contract 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 Contract Owner should consult a qualified tax adviser regarding the possible
adverse tax consequences resulting from an extension of the scheduled Maturity
Date.
- ---------------------------------------------------
LAST SURVIVOR CONTRACTS
Although Hartford believes that the last survivor Contracts are in
compliance with Section 7702 of the Code, the manner in which Section 7702
should be applied to certain features of a joint survivorship life insurance
contract is not directly addressed by Section 7702. In the absence of final
regulations or other guidance issued under Section 7702, there is necessarily
some uncertainty whether a last survivor Contract will meet the Section 7702
definition of a life insurance contract.
- ---------------------------------------------------
MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS
A life insurance contract is treated as a "modified endowment contract"
under Section 7702A of the Code if it meets the definition of life insurance in
Section 7702 but fails the "seven-pay" test of Section 7702A. The seven-pay test
provides that premiums cannot be paid at a rate more rapidly than that allowed
by the payment of seven annual premiums using specified computational rules
provided in Section 7702A(c). The large single premium permitted
<PAGE>
22 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
under the Contract does not meet the specified computational rules for the
"seven-pay test" under Section 7702A(c). Therefore, the Contract 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 contract to be treated as a
modified endowment contract if no additional premiums are paid and there is no
change in the death benefit as the result of the exchange.
A contract that is classified as a modified endowment contract is generally
eligible for the beneficial tax treatment accorded to life insurance. That is,
the death benefit is excluded from income and increments in value are not
subject to current taxation. However, loans, distributions or other amounts
received from a modified endowment contract during the life of the Insured will
be taxed to the extent of any accumulated income in the contract (generally, the
excess of account value over premiums paid). Amounts that are taxable
withdrawals will be subject to a 10% additional tax, with certain exceptions.
All modified endowment contracts that are issued within any calendar year to
the same contract owner by one company or its affiliates shall be treated as one
modified endowment contract in determining the taxable portion of any loan or
distributions.
- ---------------------------------------------------
ESTATE AND GENERATION SKIPPING TAXES
When the Insured dies, the Death Proceeds will generally be includible in
the Contract Owner's estate for purposes of federal estate tax if the last
surviving Insured owned the Contract. If the Contract Owner was not the last
surviving Insured, the fair market value of the Contract would be included in
the Contract Owner's estate upon the Contract Owner's death. Nothing would be
includible in the last surviving Insured's estate if he or she neither retained
incidents of ownership at death nor had given up ownership within three years
before death.
Federal estate tax is integrated with federal gift tax under a unified rate
schedule. In general, estates less than $600,000 will not incur a federal estate
tax liability. In addition, an unlimited marital deduction may be available for
federal estate and gift tax purposes. The unlimited marital deduction permits
the deferral of taxes until the death of the surviving spouse (when the Death
Proceeds would be available to pay taxes due and other expenses incurred).
If the Contract Owner (whether or not he or she is an Insured) transfers
ownership of the Contract 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 Contract. The generation-skipping transfer tax
provisions generally apply to transfers which would be subject to the gift and
estate tax rules. Individuals are generally allowed an aggregate generation
skipping transfer exemption of $1 million. Because these rules are complex, the
Contract Owner should consult with a qualified tax adviser for specific
information if ownership is passing to younger generations.
- ---------------------------------------------------
DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
Section 817 of the Code provides that a variable life insurance contract
(other than a pension plan policy) will not be treated as a life insurance
contract for any period during which the investments made by the separate
account or underlying fund are not adequately diversified in accordance with
regulations prescribed by the Treasury Department. If a Contract is not treated
as a life insurance contract, the Contract Owner will be subject to income tax
on the annual increases in cash value.
The Treasury Department has issued diversification regulations which
generally require, among other things, that no more than 55% of the value of the
total assets of the segregated asset account underlying a variable contract is
represented by any one investment, no more than 70% is represented by any two
investments, no more than 80% is represented by any three investments, and no
more than 90% is represented by any four investments. In determining whether the
diversification standards are met, all securities of the same issuer, all
interests in the same real property project, and all interests in the same
commodity are each treated as a single investment. In addition, in the case of
government securities, each government agency or instrumentality shall be
treated as a separate issuer.
A separate account must be in compliance with the diversification standards
on the last day of each calendar quarter or within 30 days after the quarter
ends. If an insurance company inadvertently fails to meet the diversification
requirements, the company may comply within a reasonable period and avoid the
taxation of policy income on an ongoing basis. However, either the company or
the Contract Owner must agree to pay the tax due for the period during which the
diversification requirements were not met.
Hartford monitors the diversification of investments in its separate
accounts, including the Separate Account, and tests for diversification as
required by the Code. Hartford intends to administer all Contracts subject to
the diversification requirements in a manner that will maintain adequate
diversification.
- ---------------------------------------------------
OWNERSHIP OF THE ASSETS IN
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
In order for a variable life insurance contract to qualify for tax deferral,
assets in the segregated asset accounts supporting the variable contract must be
considered to be owned by the insurance company and not by the variable
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 23
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
contract owner. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has issued several rulings
which discuss investor control. The IRS has ruled that incidents of ownership by
the contract owner, such as the ability to select and control investments in a
separate account, will cause the contract owner to be treated as the owner of
the assets for tax purposes.
Further, in the explanation to the temporary Section 817 diversification
regulations, the Treasury Department noted that the temporary regulations "do
not provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which investor control of
the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the investor, rather
than the insurance company, to be treated as the owner of the assets in the
account." The explanation further indicates that "the temporary regulations
provide that in appropriate cases a segregated asset account may include
multiple sub-accounts, but do not specify the extent to which policyholders may
direct their investments to particular sub-accounts without being treated as the
owners of the underlying assets. Guidance on this and other issues will be
provided in regulations or revenue rulings under section 817(d), relating to the
definition of "variable contract." The final regulations issued under Section
817 did not provide guidance regarding investor control, and as of the date of
this Prospectus, no other such guidance has been issued. Further, Hartford does
not know if or in what form such guidance will be issued. In addition, although
regulations are generally issued with prospective effect, it is possible that
regulations may be issued with retroactive effect. Due to the lack of specific
guidance regarding the issue of investor control, there is necessarily some
uncertainty regarding whether a Contract Owner could be considered the owner of
the assets for tax purposes. Hartford reserves the right to modify the
contracts, as necessary, to prevent Contract Owners from being considered the
owners of the assets in the separate accounts.
- ---------------------------------------------------
LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASED FOR USE
IN SPLIT DOLLAR ARRANGEMENTS
On January 26, 1996, the IRS released a technical advice memorandum ("TAM")
on the taxability of life insurance policies used in certain split dollar
arrangements. A TAM, issued by the National Office of the IRS, provides advice
as to the internal revenue laws, regulations, and related statutes with respect
to a specific set of facts and a specific taxpayer. In the TAM, among other
things, the IRS concluded that an employee was subject to current taxation on
the excess of the cash surrender value of the policy over the premiums to be
returned to the employer. Purchasers of life insurance policies to be used in
split dollar arrangements are strongly advised to consult with a qualified tax
adviser to determine the tax treatment resulting from such an arrangement.
- ---------------------------------------------------
FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING
If any amounts are deemed to be current taxable income to the Contract
Owner, such amounts will be subject to federal income tax withholding and
reporting, pursuant to the Code.
- ---------------------------------------------------
NON-INDIVIDUAL OWNERSHIP OF CONTRACTS
Legislation has recently been proposed which would limit certain of the tax
advantages now afforded non-individual owners of life insurance contracts.
Prospective Contract Owners which are not individuals should consult a tax
adviser to determine the status of this proposed legislation and its potential
impact on the purchaser.
- ---------------------------------------------------
OTHER
Federal estate tax, state and local estate, inheritance and other tax
consequences of ownership or receipt of Contract proceeds depend on the
circumstances of each Contract 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.

APPENDIX A
SPECIAL INFORMATION FOR CONTRACTS PURCHASED IN NEW YORK
If the Contract is purchased in the State of New York, the following provisions
of the Prospectus are amended as follows:
In the Special Terms subsection of the Prospectus, the definition of Account
Value is deleted and the following definition is substituted:
ACCOUNT VALUE: The current value of Accumulation Units plus the value of the
Loan Account under the Contract. In the case of a Contract Owner who
purchases the Contract in the State of New York (the "New York Contract
Owner") and who elects to transfer into the Fixed Account, Account Value is
the current value of the Fixed Account plus the value of the Loan Account
under the Contract.
The following definition is added:
FIXED ACCOUNT: Part of the General Account of Hartford to which a New York
Contract Owner may allocate the entire Account Value.
The definition of Loan Account is deleted and the following definition is
substituted:
LOAN ACCOUNT: An account in Hartford's General Account, established for any
amounts transferred from the Sub-Accounts or, if a New York Contract Owner,
from the Fixed Account for requested loans. The Loan Account credits a fixed
rate of interest of 4% per annum that is not based on the investment
experience of the Separate Account.
The following is added to the Prospectus as a separate section following the
section entitled "The Separate Account":
- ---------------------------------------------------
THE FIXED ACCOUNT
THAT PORTION OF THE POLICY RELATING TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT IS NOT REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 ("1933 ACT") AND THE FIXED ACCOUNT IS NOT
REGISTERED AS AN INVESTMENT COMPANY UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940
("1940 ACT"). ACCORDINGLY, NEITHER THE FIXED ACCOUNT NOR ANY INTERESTS
THEREIN ARE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OR RESTRICTIONS OF THE 1933 ACT OR THE
1940 ACT, AND THE DISCLOSURE REGARDING THE FIXED ACCOUNT HAS NOT BEEN
REVIEWED BY THE STAFF OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. THE
FOLLOWING DISCLOSURE ABOUT THE FIXED ACCOUNT MAY BE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
GENERALLY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS REGARDING THE
ACCURACY AND COMPLETENESS OF DISCLOSURE.
Under the circumstances described under the heading "Transfer of Entire
Account Value to the Fixed Account," page 13, New York Contract Owners may
transfer no less than the entire Account Value to the Fixed Account. Account
Value transferred to the Fixed Account becomes part of the general assets of
Hartford. Hartford invests the assets of the General Account in accordance
with applicable laws governing the investment of insurance company general
accounts.
Hartford currently credits interest to the Account Value transferred to the
Fixed Account under the Contract at the Minimum Credited Rate of 3% per
year, compounded annually. Hartford reserves the right to credit a lower
minimum interest rate according to state law. Hartford may also credit
interest at rates greater than the minimum Fixed Account interest rate.
There is no specific formula for determining the interest credited to the
Account Value in the Fixed Account.
The following language is added to the section of the Prospectus entitled
"Deductions and Charges -- Administrative Charges," page 11:
No Administrative Charge is deducted from Account Value in the Fixed
Account.
The following language is added to the section of the Prospectus entitled
"Deductions and Charges -- Mortality and Expense Risk Charge," page 11:
No Mortality and Expense Risk Charge is deducted from Account Value in the
Fixed Account.
The following separate sections are added to the section of the Prospectus
entitled "Contract Benefits," page 12:
TRANSFER OF ENTIRE ACCOUNT VALUE TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT
New York Contract Owners may transfer no less than the entire Account Value
into the Fixed Account under the following circumstances: (i) during the
first 18 months following the Date of Issue, (ii) within 30 days
<PAGE>
26 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
following a Contract Anniversary, or (iii) within 60 days following the
effective date of a material change in the investment policy of the Separate
Account which the New York Contract Owner objects to.
A TRANSFER TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT MUST BE FOR THE ENTIRE ACCOUNT VALUE AND
ONCE THE ACCOUNT VALUE HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT, IT MAY
NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BE TRANSFERRED BACK TO THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT.
For New York Contract Owners who elect to invest in the Fixed Account,
Hartford will transfer the entire Account Value from the Separate Account to
the Fixed Account on the Monthly Activity Date next following the date on
which Hartford received the transfer request. The Account Value in the Fixed
Account on the date of transfer equals the entire Account Value; plus the
value of the Loan Account; minus the Monthly Deduction Amount applicable to
the Fixed Account and minus the Annual Maintenance Fee, if applicable. On
each subsequent Monthly Activity Date, the Account Value in the Fixed
Account equals the Account Value on the previous Monthly Activity Date; plus
any premiums received since the last Monthly Activity Date; plus interest
credited since the last Monthly Activity Date; minus the Monthly Deduction
Amount applicable to the Fixed Account; minus any partial surrenders taken
since the last Monthly Activity Date and minus any Surrender Charges
deducted since the last Monthly Deduction Date. On each Valuation Date
(other than a Monthly Activity Date), the Account Value of the Fixed Account
equals the Account Value on the previous Monthly Activity Date; plus any
premiums received since the last Monthly Activity Date; plus any interest
credited since the last Monthly Activity Date; minus any partial surrenders
taken since the last Monthly Activity Date and minus any surrender charges
deducted since the last Monthly Activity Date.
DEFERRED PAYMENTS
Hartford reserves the right to defer payment of any Cash Surrender Values
and loan amounts which are attributable to the Fixed Account for up to six
months from the date of request. If payment is deferred for more than ten
days, Hartford will pay interest at the Fixed Account Minimum Credited
Interest Rate.

APPENDIX B
ILLUSTRATIONS OF BENEFITS
The tables in Appendix B illustrate the way in which a Contract 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 Contract. The illustrations for the last survivor Contract 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 Contract 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 Contract
Years. They would also differ if any Contract loan were made during the period
of time illustrated.
The tables reflect the deductions of current Contract charges and guaranteed
Contract 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 Contract Year take into account an average daily charge equal to an annual
charge of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of the Funds for investment
advisory and administrative services fees. The gross annual investment return
rates of 0%, 6% and 12% on the Fund's assets are equal to net annual investment
return rates (net of the 0.75% average daily charge) of -0.75%, 5.25% and
11.25%, respectively.
In addition, the death benefit and surrender value as of the end of each
Contract Year take into account the (1) tax expense charge equal to an annual
rate of 0.40% of Account Value for the first ten Contract Years; (2)
administrative charge equal to an annual rate of 0.40% of Account Value
attributable to the Separate Account; (3) mortality and expense risk charge
equal to an annual rate of 0.90% of Account Value attributable to the Separate
Account; and (4) any Contingent Deferred Sales Charge and premium tax charge
which may be applicable in the first nine Contract Years.
The hypothetical returns shown in the tables are without any tax charges
that may be attributable to the Separate Account in the future. In order to
produce after tax returns of 0%, 6%, and 12%, the Separate Account would have to
earn a sufficient amount in excess of 0% or 6% or 12% to cover any tax charges
(see "Deductions and Charges -- Taxes Charges Against The Separate Account,"
page 12).
The "Premium Paid Plus Interest" column of each table shows the amount which
would accumulate if the initial premium was invested to earn interest, after
taxes of 5% per year, compounded annually.
Hartford will furnish upon request, a comparable illustration reflecting the
proposed insureds age, risk classification, Face Amount or initial premium
requested, and reflecting guaranteed cost of insurance rates. Hartford will also
furnish an additional similar illustration reflecting current cost of insurance
rates which may be less than, but never greater than, the guaranteed cost of
insurance rates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Hartford Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hartford Life
Insurance Company (a Connecticut corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of
Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company) and subsidiaries as of December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of income,
stockholder's equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1996. These consolidated financial statements and the
schedules referred to below are the responsibility of Hartford Life Insurance
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements and schedules 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Hartford Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Hartford
Life Insurance Company adopted a new accounting standard promulgated by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board, changing its method of accounting, as of
January 1, 1994, for debt and equity securities.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in the
Index to Consolidated Financial Statements and Schedules are presented for
purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
are not a required part of the basic consolidated financial statements. These
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly state
in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in
relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Accident Insurance Company ("HLA"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hartford Life,
Inc. ("Hartford Life"), a direct subsidiary of Hartford Accident and Indemnity
Company, an indirect subsidiary of ITT Hartford Group, Inc. ("The Hartford").
Hartford Life was formed on December 13, 1996 and capitalized on December 16,
1996 with the contribution of all the outstanding common stock of HLA. On
February 10, 1997, The Hartford, the ultimate parent of Hartford Life, announced
its intention to sell up to 20% of Hartford Life during the second quarter of
1997. Management believes that this transaction will not have a material impact
on the operations of the Company (See Note 11).
On December 19, 1995, ITT Industries, Inc. (formerly ITT Corporation)("ITT")
distributed all the outstanding shares of capital stock of The Hartford to ITT
stockholders of record on such date (the transactions relating to such
distribution are referred to herein as the "ITT Spin-off"). As a result of the
ITT Spin-off, The Hartford became an independent, publicly traded company.
The Company is a leading insurance and financial services company which
provides: (a) investment products such as individual variable annuities and
fixed market value adjusted annuities, deferred compensation plan services and
mutual funds for savings and retirement needs; (b) life insurance for income
protection and estate planning; and (c) employee benefits products such as
corporate owned life insurance.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These financial statements present the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows of the Company, and all material intercompany
transactions and balances between Hartford Life Insurance Company and its
subsidiaries have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements are
prepared on a basis of generally accepted accounting principles which differ
materially from the statutory accounting prescribed by various insurance
regulatory authorities.
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 and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(B) CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
On November 14, 1996, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a
consensus on Issue No. 96-12, "Recognition of Interest Income and Balance Sheet
Classification of Structured Notes". This Issue requires companies to record
income on certain structured securities on a retrospective interest method. The
Company adopted EITF No. 96-12 for structured securities acquired after November
14, 1996. Adoption of EITF No. 96-12 did not have a material effect on the
Company's financial condition or results of operations.
In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 125, "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities".
This statement established criteria for determining whether transferred assets
should be accounted for as sales or secured borrowings. Subsequently, in
December 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 127, "Deferral of Effective Date of
Certain Provisions of FASB Statement No. 125", which defers the effective date
of certain provisions of SFAS No. 125 for one year. Adoption of SFAS No. 125 is
not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or
results of operations.
In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation", which is effective in 1996. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the
Company continues to measure compensation costs of employee stock option plans
(relating to options on common stock of The Hartford) using the intrinsic value
method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25. As of February
10, 1997, the Company had not adopted an employee stock compensation plan.
Certain officers of the Company participate in The Hartford's stock option plan.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Compensation costs allocated by The Hartford to the Company, as well as pro
forma compensation costs as determined under SFAS No. 123, were immaterial to
the results of operations for 1996 and 1995.
Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". The new standard requires,
among other things, that securities 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 effect those
intentions. The classification determines the appropriate accounting carrying
value (cost basis or fair value) and, in the case of fair value, whether the
fair value difference from cost, net of tax, impacts stockholder's equity
directly or is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Investments
in equity securities had previously been and continue to be recorded at fair
value with the corresponding after-tax impact included in stockholder's equity.
Under SFAS No. 115, the Company's fixed maturity investments are classified as
"available-for-sale" and, accordingly, these investments are reflected at fair
value with the corresponding impact included as a component of stockholder's
equity designated as "Net unrealized capital gain (loss) on investments, net of
tax." As with the underlying investment security, unrealized capital gains and
losses on derivative financial instruments are considered in determining the
fair value of the portfolios. The impact of adoption was an increase to
stockholder's equity of $91 million. The Company's cash flows were not impacted
by this change in accounting principle.
(C) REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenues for universal life policies and investment products consist of
policy charges for the cost of insurance, policy administration and surrender
charges assessed to policy account balances and are recognized in the period in
which services are provided. Premiums for traditional life insurance policies
are recognized as revenues when they are due from policyholders.
(D) FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS AND OTHER POLICYHOLDER FUNDS
Liabilities for future policy benefits are computed by the net level premium
method using interest rate assumptions varying from 3% to 11% and withdrawal and
mortality assumptions appropriate at the time the policies were issued.
Liabilities for universal life-type and investment contracts are stated at
policyholder account values before surrender charges.
(E) DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS
Policy acquisition costs, including commissions and certain underwriting
expenses associated with acquiring business, are deferred and amortized over the
estimated lives of the contracts, generally 20 years. Generally, acquisition
costs are deferred and amortized using the retrospective deposit method. Under
the retrospective deposit method, acquisition costs are amortized in proportion
to the present value of expected gross profits from surrender charges,
investment, mortality and expense margins. Actual gross profits can vary from
management's estimates resulting in increases or decreases in the rate of
amortization. Management periodically updates these estimates, when appropriate,
and evaluates the recoverability of the deferred acquisition cost asset. When
appropriate, management revises its assumptions on the estimated gross profits
of these contracts and the cumulative amortization for the books of business are
reestimated and readjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income.
(F) POLICYHOLDER REALIZED CAPITAL GAINS AND LOSSES
Realized capital gains and losses on security transactions associated with
the Company's immediate participation guaranteed contracts are excluded from
revenues and deferred, since under the terms of the contracts the realized gains
and losses will be credited to policyholders in future years as they are
entitled to receive them.
(G) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Foreign currency translation gains and losses are reflected in stockholder's
equity. Balance sheet accounts are translated at the exchange rates in effect at
each year end and income statement accounts are translated at the average rates
of exchange prevailing during the year. The national currencies of international
operations are generally their functional currencies.
(H) INVESTMENTS
The Company's investments in fixed maturities include bonds, redeemable
preferred stock and commercial paper which are classified as
"available-for-sale" and accordingly are carried at fair value with the
after-tax difference from cost reflected as a component of stockholder's equity
designated as "Net unrealized capital gain (loss) on investments, net of tax".
Equity securities, which include common and non-redeemable preferred stocks, are
carried at fair value with the after-tax difference from cost reflected in
stockholder's equity. Policy and mortgage loans are each carried at their
outstanding balance which approximates fair value. Investments in partnerships
and trusts are carried at cost. Net realized capital gains (losses), after
deducting the policyholders' share, are reported as a component of revenue and
are determined on a specific identification basis.
The Company's accounting policy for impairment recognition requires
recognition of an other than temporary impairment charge on a security if it is
determined that the Company is unable to recover all amounts due under the
contractual obligations of the security. In addition, the Company has
established specific criteria to be used in the
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
impairment evaluation of an individual portfolio of assets. Specifically, if the
asset portfolio is supporting a runoff operation, is forced to be liquidated
prior to maturity to meet liability commitments, and has fair value below
amortized cost, which will not materially fluctuate as a result of future
interest rate changes, then an other than temporary impairment condition has
been determined to have occurred. Each individual security within that portfolio
is evaluated to determine whether or not it is impaired. Once an impairment
charge has been recorded, the Company then continues to review the individual
impaired securities for appropriate valuation on an ongoing basis.
During 1996, it was determined that certain individual securities within the
investment portfolio supporting the Company's closed block of guaranteed rate
contracts ("Closed Book GRC") were impaired. With the initiation of certain
hedge transactions, which eliminated the possibility that the fair value of the
Closed Book GRC investments would recover to their current amortized cost, an
other than temporary impairment loss of $88 after tax was determined to have
occurred and was recorded.
(I) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company uses a variety of derivative financial instruments including
swaps, caps, floors, forwards and exchange traded financial futures and options
as part of an overall risk management strategy. These instruments are used as a
means of hedging exposure to price, foreign currency and/or interest rate risk
on anticipated investment purchases or existing assets and liabilities. The
Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading
purposes. The Company's accounting for derivative financial instruments used to
manage risk is in accordance with the concepts established in SFAS No. 80,
"Accounting for Futures Contracts," SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation",
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 86-2,
"Accounting for Options", and various EITF pronouncements. Written options are,
in all cases, used in conjunction with other assets and derivatives as part of
the Company's asset/liability management strategies. Derivative instruments are
carried at values consistent with the asset or liability being hedged.
Derivatives used to hedge fixed maturities or equities are carried at fair value
with the after-tax difference from cost reflected in stockholder's equity.
Derivatives used to hedge other invested assets or liabilities are carried at
cost.
Derivatives must be designated at inception as a hedge and measured for
effectiveness both at inception and on an ongoing basis. The Company's minimum
correlation threshold for hedge designation is 80%. If correlation, which is
assessed monthly and measured based on a rolling three month average, falls
below 80%, hedge accounting will be terminated. Derivatives used to create a
synthetic asset must meet synthetic accounting criteria including designation at
inception and consistency of terms between the synthetic and the instrument
being replicated. Interest rate swaps are the primary type of derivatives used
to convert London interbank offered quotations for U.S. dollar deposits
("LIBOR") based variable rate instruments to fixed rate instruments. Synthetic
instrument accounting, consistent with industry practice, provides that the
synthetic asset is accounted for like the financial instrument it is intended to
replicate. Derivatives which fail to meet risk management criteria are marked to
market with the impact reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Gains or losses on financial futures contracts entered into in anticipation
of the future receipt of product cash flows are deferred and, at the time of the
ultimate purchase, reflected as an adjustment to the cost basis of the purchased
asset. Gains or losses on futures used in invested asset risk management are
deferred and adjusted into the cost basis of the hedged asset when the futures
contracts are closed, except for futures used in duration hedging which are
deferred and are adjusted into the cost basis on a quarterly basis. The
adjustments to the cost basis are amortized into investment income over the
remaining asset life.
Open forward commitment contracts are marked to market through stockholder's
equity. Such contracts are recorded at settlement by recording the purchase of
the specified securities at the previously committed price. Gains or losses
resulting from the termination of the forward commitment contracts before the
delivery of the securities are recognized immediately in the Consolidated
Statements of Income as a component of net investment income.
The cost of purchased options and/or premiums received on covered written
options, entered into as part of an asset/liability management strategy, is/are
adjusted into the cost basis of the underlying asset or liability and amortized
over the remaining life of the hedge. Gains or losses on expiration or
termination of the hedge are adjusted into the basis of the underlying asset or
liability and amortized over the remaining asset life. The Company had no
written options as of December 31, 1996 and 1995.
Interest rate swaps involve the periodic exchange of payments without the
exchange of underlying principal or notional amounts. Net receipts or payments
are accrued and recognized over the life of the swap agreement as an adjustment
to income. Should the swap be terminated, the gain or loss is adjusted into the
basis of the asset or liability and amortized over the remaining life. Should
the hedged asset be sold or liability terminated without terminating the swap
position, any swap gains or losses are immediately recognized in earnings.
Interest rate swaps purchased in anticipation of an asset purchase (an
"anticipatory transaction") are recognized consistent with the underlying asset
components such that the settlement component is recognized in the Consolidated
Statements of Income while the change in market value is recognized as an
unrealized gain or loss.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Premiums paid on purchased floor or cap agreements and the premium received
on issued floor or cap agreements (used for risk management) are adjusted into
the basis of the applicable asset and amortized over the asset life. Gains or
losses on termination of such positions are adjusted into the basis of the asset
or liability and amortized over the remaining asset life. Net payments are
recognized as an adjustment to income or basis adjusted and amortized depending
on the specific hedge strategy.
Forward exchange contracts and foreign currency swaps are accounted for in
accordance with SFAS No. 52.
(J) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Transactions of the Company with HLA and its affiliates relate principally
to tax settlements, reinsurance, insurance coverage, rental and service fees and
payment of dividends and capital contributions. 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 employee
benefit plan expenses, are initially paid by Hartford Fire Insurance Company, an
indirect subsidiary of The Hartford ("Hartford Fire"). Direct expenses are
allocated to the Company using specific identification, and indirect expenses
are allocated using other applicable methods. Indirect expenses include those
for corporate areas which, depending on the type, are allocated based on either
a percentage of direct expenses or on utilization. Indirect expenses allocated
to the Company by Hartford Fire were $40, $45 and $41 in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. Management of the Company believes that the methods used are
reasonable. In addition, the Company was charged its share of costs allocated to
The Hartford by ITT prior to the ITT Spin-off, which were immaterial in 1995 and
1994. The Company had a receivable from The Hartford of $1 and a payable to The
Hartford of $2 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
In 1996, the Company ceded approximately $33.3 billion of group life
insurance in force and $318 million of disability premium to HLA and assumed
$8.5 billion of individual life insurance in force from HLA.
On June 30, 1995, the ownership of ITT Lyndon Insurance Company was
transferred to the Company via a capital contribution of $181 million,
representing the net assets of the company. Also, in 1996, the Company received
a capital contribution of $37.5 million from its parent HLA.
(K) DIVIDENDS TO POLICYHOLDERS
Certain life insurance policies contain dividend payment provisions that
enable the policyholder to participate in the earnings of the life insurance
subsidiaries of the Company. The participating insurance in force accounted for
44%, 41%, and 43% in 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively, of total life insurance
in force.

The amortized cost and fair value of fixed maturities at December 31, 1996,
by maturity, are shown below. Asset-backed securities, including mortgage-backed
securities and collateralized mortgage obligations, are distributed to maturity
year based on the Company's estimates of the rate of future prepayments of
principal over the remaining lives of such securities. These estimates are
developed using prepayment speeds reported in broker consensus data and can be
expected to vary from actual experience. Expected maturities differ from
contractual maturities due to call or prepayment provisions.

Sales of fixed maturities excluding short-term fixed maturities for the
years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 resulted in proceeds of $3,459,
$4,848 and $5,708, respectively, resulting in gross realized capital gains of
$87, $91 and $71, respectively, and gross realized capital losses (including
investment writedowns) of $298, $72 and $100, respectively, not including
policyholder gains and losses. Sales of equity securities for the years ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 resulted in proceeds of $74, $64 and $159,
respectively, resulting in gross realized capital gains of $2, $28 and $3,
respectively, and gross realized capital losses of $0, $59 and $14,
respectively, not including policyholder gains and losses.
(F) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had a reinsurance recoverable of $3.8
billion from Mutual Benefit Life Assurance Corporation ("Mutual Benefit"),
supported by assets in a security trust of $3.8 billion (including policy loans
of $3.3 billion). The risk of Mutual Benefit becoming insolvent is mitigated by
the reinsurance agreement's requirement that the assets be kept in a security
trust with the Company as sole beneficiary. Excluding investments in U.S.
government and agencies, the Company has no other significant concentrations of
credit risk in fixed maturities.
(G) DERIVATIVE INVESTMENTS
Derivatives play an important role in facilitating the management of
interest rate risk, creating opportunities to fund product obligations hedging
against indexation risks that affect the value of certain liabilities and
adjusting broad investment risk characteristics when dictated by significant
changes in market risks. As an end user of derivatives, the Company uses a
variety of derivative financial instruments, including swaps, caps, floors,
forwards and exchange traded financial futures and options in order to hedge
exposure to price, foreign currency and/or interest rate risk on anticipated
investment purchases or existing assets and liabilities. The notional amounts of
derivative contracts represent the basis upon which pay and receive amounts are
calculated and are not reflective of credit risk for derivative contracts.
Credit risk for derivative contracts is limited to the amounts calculated to be
due to the Company on such contracts. The Company believes it maintains prudent
policies regarding the financial stability and credit standing of its major
counterparties and typically requires credit enhancement provisions to further
limit its credit risk. Many of these derivative contracts are bilateral
agreements that are not assignable without the consent of the relevant
counterparty. Notional amounts pertaining to derivative financial instruments
totaled $9.9 billion and $8.8 billion at December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively ($7.4 billion and $7.1 billion related to life insurance
investments and $2.5 billion and $1.7 billion related to life insurance
liabilities at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively).

(a) Inverse floaters are variations of collateralized mortgage obligations
("CMOs") for which the coupon rates move inversely with an index rate such
as LIBOR. The risk to principal is considered negligible as the underlying
collateral for the securities is guaranteed or sponsored by government
agencies. To address the volatility risk created by the coupon variability,
the Company uses a variety of derivative instruments, primarily interest
rate swaps and purchased caps and floors.
(b) The fair value of derivative instruments including swaps, caps, floors,
futures, options and forward commitments, was determined using a pricing
model which is validated through quarterly comparison to dealer quoted
market prices, for 1996 and dealer quoted prices for 1995.
(c) The 1996 data includes issued caps of $433 with a weighted average strike
rate of 8.21% (ranging from 7.0% to 9.5%) and over 93% maturing in 2000
through 2005. In addition, issued floors totaled $590, had a weighted
average strike rate of 5.17% (ranging from 5.00% to 7.85%) with all of them
maturing by the end of 2005. The 1995 data includes issued caps of $475 with
a weighted average strike rate of 8.5% (ranging from 7.0% to 10.4%) and over
85% maturing in 2000 through 2004. In addition, issued floors totaled $236,
had a weighted average strike rate of 8.1% (ranging from 5.3% to 10.9%) and
mature through 2007, with 76% maturing by 2004.
(d) The 1996 data includes purchased floors of $2.4 billion and purchased caps
of $1.3 billion. The floors had a weighted average strike rate of 5.84%
(ranging from 3.70% to 7.85%) and over 87% mature in 1997 through 1999. The
options mature in 1997. The caps had a weighted average strike rate of 7.59%
(ranging from 4.40% to 10.125%) and over 76% mature in 1997 through 2001.
The 1995 data includes purchased floors of $1.8 billion and purchased caps
of $1.7 billion. The floors had a weighted average strike price of 5.8%
(ranging from 3.7% to 6.8%) and over 85% mature in 1997 through 1999. The
caps had a weighted average strike price of 7.5% (ranging from 4.5% and
10.1%) and over 82% mature in 1997 through 1999.

(e) As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, over 39% and 95%, respectively, of the
notional futures contracts, expire within one year.
(f) As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, over 42% and 25%, respectively, of the
Company's foreign currency swaps, expire within one year; the balance mature
over the succeeding 4 to 5 years.
(g) Deferred gains and losses on anticipatory transactions are included in the
carrying value of bond investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. At
the time of the ultimate purchase, they are reflected as a basis adjustment
to the purchased asset. At December 31, 1996, the Company had $1 million in
net deferred gains for futures, interest rate swaps and purchased options.
The Company expects to basis adjust $1 million of the deferred gains in
1997. At December 31, 1995, the Company had $5.3 million in net deferred
gains for futures, interest rate swaps and purchased options.
(h) The following table summarizes the maturities by notional value of interest
rate swaps outstanding at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
weighted average interest pay rate or receive rate. The variable rates
represent spot rates (primarily 90 day LIBOR), as of December 31, 1996 and
1995. Such variable rates have been calculated assuming that the spot rates
remain unchanged throughout the life of the interest rate swaps.

In addition, interest rate sensitivity related to certain Company insurance
liabilities was altered primarily through interest rate swap agreements. The
notional amount of the liability agreements in which the Company generally pays
one variable rate in exchange for another was $2.4 billion and $1.7 billion at
December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. As of December 31, 1996, the weighted
average pay rate was 5.6% and the weighted average receive rate was 6.5%. These
agreements mature at various times through 2001.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
of each class of financial instrument: fair value for fixed maturities and
equity securities approximate those quotations published by applicable stock
exchanges or received from other reliable sources; policy and mortgage loan
carrying amounts approximate fair value; investments in partnerships and trusts
are based on external market valuations from partnership and trust managements;
fair value of derivative instruments, including swaps, caps, floors, futures,
and forward commitments, is determined by using a pricing model which is
validated through quarterly comparison to dealer quoted market prices; and other
policy benefits payable for investment type contracts are determined by
estimating future cash flows discounted at the year end market rate.

4. INCOME TAX
Hartford Life and The Hartford have entered into a tax sharing agreement
under which each member, including the Company, 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 Hartford Life for the Company, subject
to certain adjustments, generally will be determined as though the Company were
to file separate federal, state and local income tax returns.
As long as The Hartford continues to beneficially own, directly or
indirectly, at least 80% of the combined voting power and 80% of the value of
the outstanding capital stock of Hartford Life, the Company will be included for
federal income tax purposes in the consolidated group of which The Hartford is
the common parent. It is the current intention of The Hartford and its
subsidiaries to continue to file a consolidated federal income tax return. The
Company will continue to remit to (receive from) The Hartford a current income
tax provision (benefit) computed in accordance with such tax sharing agreement.
The Company's effective tax rate was 35%, 32% and 32% in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.

Prior to the Tax Reform Act of 1984, the Life Insurance Company Income Tax
Act of 1959 permitted the deferral from taxation of a portion of statutory
income under certain circumstances. In such circumstances, the deferred income
was accumulated in a "Policyholders' Surplus Account" and will be taxable in the
future only under conditions which management considers to be remote; therefore,
no Federal income taxes have been provided on this deferred income. The balance
for tax return purposes of the Policyholders' Surplus Account as of December 31,
1996 was $37.
- ---------------------------------------------------
5. REINSURANCE
The Company cedes insurance to non-affiliated insurers in order to limit its
maximum loss. Such transfer does not relieve the Company of its primary
liability. The Company also assumes insurance from other insurers.
Life insurance net retained premiums were comprised of the following:

Life reinsurance recoveries, which reduced death and other benefits, for the
years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 approximated $140, $220 and $164,
respectively.
In December 1994, the Company ceded to a third party $1.0 billion in
individual fixed and variable annuities on a modified coinsurance basis. In
December 1995, the Company ceded approximately $1.2 billion in individual
variable annuities on a modified coinsurance basis to a third party. These
transactions did not have a material impact on consolidated net income.
In May 1994, the Company assumed the life insurance policies and the
individual annuities of Pacific Standard with reserves and account values of
approximately $434 million. The Company received cash and investment grade
assets to support the life insurance and individual annuity contract obligations
assumed.
- ---------------------------------------------------
6.PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT
BENEFITS
The Company's employees are included in Hartford Fire's noncontributory
defined benefit pension plans. These plans provide pension benefits that are
based on years of service and the employee's compensation during the last ten
years of employment. The Company's funding policy is to contribute annually an
amount between the minimum funding requirements set forth in the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the maximum amount that
can be deducted for Federal income tax purposes. Generally, pension costs are
funded through the purchase of the Company's group pension contracts. The cost
to the Company was approximately $5, $2 and $2 in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.
The Company also provides, through Hartford Fire, certain health care and
life insurance benefits for eligible retired employees. A substantial portion of
the Company's employees may become eligible for these benefits upon retirement.
The Company's contribution for health care benefits will depend on the retiree's
date of retirement and years of service. In addition, the plan has a defined
dollar cap which limits average Company contributions. The Company has prefunded
a portion of the health care and life insurance obligations through trust funds
where such prefunding can be accomplished on a tax effective basis.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Postretirement health care and life insurance benefits expense, allocated by The
Hartford, was immaterial for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
The assumed rate of future increases in the per capita cost of health care
(the health care trend rate) was 9.3% for 1996, decreasing ratably to 6.0% in
the year 2001. 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 the covered employees.
- ---------------------------------------------------
7. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company sells financial products such as fixed and variable annuities,
retirement plan services, and life insurance on both an individual and a group
basis. The Company divides its core businesses into three segments: Investment
Products, Individual Life Insurance and Employee Benefits. In addition, the
Company also maintains a corporate operation and also classifies certain of its
business as Runoff operations. The Investment Products segment offers individual
variable annuities and fixed market value adjusted annuities, deferred
compensation and retirement plan services, mutual funds, investment management
services and other financial products. The Individual Life Insurance segment
sells a variety of individual life insurance products, including variable life,
universal life, and interest-sensitive whole life policies. The Employee
Benefits segment sells corporate owned life insurance. Through its corporate
operation, the Company reports net investment income on assets representing
surplus not assigned to any of its business segments and certain other revenues
and expenses not specifically allocable to any of its business segments. The
Company's Runoff operations are comprised of Closed Book GRC. With the exception
of Closed Book GRC, net realized capital gains and losses are recognized in the
period of realization but are allocated to the segments utilizing durations of
the segment portfolios.

8. STATUTORY NET INCOME AND SURPLUS
A significant percentage of the consolidated statutory surplus is
permanently reinvested or is subject to various state regulatory restrictions
which limit the payment of dividends without prior approval. The total amount of
statutory dividends which may be paid by the insurance subsidiaries of the
Company in 1997, without prior approval, is estimated to be $121 million.
Statutory net income and surplus as of and for the years ended December 31 were:

The insurance subsidiaries of the Company prepare their statutory financial
statements in accordance with accounting practices prescribed by the State of
Connecticut Insurance Department. Prescribed statutory accounting practices
include publications of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners
("NAIC"), as well as state laws, regulations, and general administrative rules.
- ---------------------------------------------------
9. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
The Company maintained separate account assets and liabilities totaling
$49.7 billion and $36.3 billion at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
which are reported at fair value. Separate account assets are segregated from
other investments, and investment income and gains and losses accrue directly to
the policyholder. Separate accounts reflect two categories of risk assumption:
non-guaranteed separate accounts totaling $39.4 billion and $25.9 billion at
December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, wherein the policyholder assumes the
investment risk, and
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
guaranteed separate account assets totaling $10.3 billion at December 31, 1996
and 1995, wherein the Company contractually guarantees either a minimum return
or account value to the policyholder. Included in the non-guaranteed category
are policy loans totaling $2.0 billion and $1.7 billion at December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively. Investment income (including investment gains and losses)
and interest credited to policyholders on separate account assets are not
reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Separate account management
fees, net of minimum guarantees, were $538, $387 and $256 in 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively.
The guaranteed separate accounts include modified guaranteed individual
annuity and modified guaranteed life insurance. The average credited interest
rate on these contracts was 6.53% at December 31, 1996. The assets that support
these liabilities were comprised of $10.2 billion in fixed maturities at
December 31, 1996. The portfolios are segregated from other investments and are
managed so as to minimize liquidity and interest rate risk. To minimize the risk
of disintermediation associated with early withdrawals, individual annuity and
modified guaranteed life insurance contracts carry a graded surrender charge as
well as a market value adjustment. Additional investment risk is hedged using a
variety of derivatives which totaled $0.1 billion in carrying value and $2.4
billion in notional amounts at December 31, 1996.
- ---------------------------------------------------
10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Under insurance guaranty fund laws existing 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. A
large part of the assessments paid by the Company's insurance subsidiaries
pursuant to these laws may be used as credits for a portion of the Company's
insurance subsidiaries' premium taxes. The Company paid guaranty fund
assessments of approximately $11, $10 and $8 in 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, of which $5, $6 and $4 were estimated to be creditable against
premium taxes.
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits arising in the ordinary
course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these
matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial position, or results of operations.
The rent paid to Hartford Fire for the space occupied by the Company was $3
in 1996, 1995, and 1994. The Company expects to pay annual rent of $7 in 1997,
1998, and 1999, respectively, $12 in 2000 and 2001, and $96 thereafter, over the
remaining term of the sublease, which expires on December 31, 2009. Rental
expense is recognized on a level basis over the term of the sublease and
amounted to approximately $8 in 1996, 1995 and 1994.
- ---------------------------------------------------
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On February 10, 1997, Hartford Life filed a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the U.S. and international
offerings of shares of Class A common stock (the "Equity Offerings")
representing up to 20% ownership of Hartford Life. After completion of the
Equity Offerings, The Hartford would own all of the shares of Class B Common
Stock (after reclassification of Hartford Life's common stock into Class B
Common Stock prior to March 31, 1997). Hartford Life intends to use the
estimated net proceeds of the Equity Offerings to make a capital contribution to
its insurance subsidiaries, to reduce its third-party indebtedness and for other
general corporate purposes.
The Hartford has advised the Company that its current intent is to continue
to beneficially own at least 80% of Hartford Life, but it is under no
contractual obligation to do so, except for a limited period. Provided that The
Hartford continues to beneficially own at least 80% of the combined voting power
or the value of the outstanding capital stock of Hartford Life, Hartford Life
will be included for federal income tax purposes in the controlled group of
which The Hartford is the common parent. Each member of a controlled group is
jointly and severally liable for pension funding and pension termination
liabilities of each other member of the controlled group, as well as certain
benefit plan taxes. Accordingly, the Company could be liable for pension
funding, pension termination liabilities and certain other pension related
excise taxes as well as other taxes of another member of The Hartford controlled
group in the event any such liability is incurred, and not discharged, by such
other member.
In connection with the proposed Equity Offerings, Hartford Life plans to
enter into formal agreements, including a master intercompany agreement,
investment management agreements and a new tax sharing agreement, with The
Hartford covering such matters as corporate services, approval of certain
corporate activities, registration rights, owned and leased space, allocation of
expenses, taxes and liabilities, investment advisory services, use of trademarks
and certain other corporate matters. As part of the master intercompany
agreement, Hartford Life would agree to remit to The Hartford 30% of any shared
liabilities for which The Hartford is responsible in respect of the ITT
Spin-off, 30% of any taxes which may be assessed to The
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hartford relating to the ITT Spin-off and will indemnify The Hartford for
certain other tax liabilities. As of December 31, 1996 there was no known
liability associated with the ITT Spin-off. Such agreements are meant to
maintain the relationship between Hartford Life and The Hartford in a manner
consistent in all material respects with past practice. As a result, management
believes these agreements should not have a material impact on the results of
operations of the Company.
In addition, under insurance company holding laws, agreements between
Hartford Life's insurance subsidiaries and The Hartford must be fair and
reasonable and may be subject to the approval of applicable insurance
commissioners. The agreements will be intended to maintain the relationship
between Hartford Life and The Hartford in a manner generally consistent with
past practices. However, none of these arrangements will result from
arm's-length negotiations and, therefore, the prices charged to Hartford Life
and its subsidiaries for services provided under these arrangements may be
higher or lower than prices that may be charged by third parties.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of

statement of operations for the year then ended and statements of
changes in net assets for the year ended December 31, 1996 and the

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

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 Hartford
Life Insurance Company Putnam Capital Manager Trust Separate Account
Five as of December 31, 1996, the results of its operations for the year
then ended and the changes in its net assets for the year ended December

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1996
1. ORGANIZATION:
Putnam Capital Manager Trust Separate Account Five (the Account) is a
separate investment account within Hartford Life 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 contractholders of the Company in the various mutual funds as

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). Cost of

Dividends and capital gains income are accrued as of the ex-dividend
date. Capital gains income represents dividends from the Funds which are
characterized as capital gains under tax regulations.
B) Security Valuation -- The investments in shares of the Funds are
valued at the closing net asset value per share as determined by the

as an insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current
law, no federal income taxes are payable with respect to the operations

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.

UNDERTAKING ON INDEMNIFICATION
Article VIII of the By Laws of Hartford Life Insurance Company, a Connecticut
corporation, provides for indemnification of its officers, directors and
employees to the extent consistent with statutory requirements.
Connecticut General Laws Section 33-320a provides for indemnification of
officers, directors and employees of a corporation as follows:
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this section, a corporation
shall indemnify any person made a party to any proceeding,
other than an action by or in the right of the corporation,
by reason of the fact that he, or the person whose legal
representative he is, is or was a shareholder, director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or an eligible
outside party, against judgments, fines, penalties, amounts
paid in settlement and reasonable expenses actually incurred
by him, and the person whose legal representative he is, in
connection with such proceeding. The corporation shall not
so indemnify any such person unless (1) such person, and the
person whose legal representative he is, was successful on
the merits in the defense of any proceeding referred to in
this subsection, or (2) it shall be concluded as provided in
subsection (d) of this section that such person, and the
person whose legal representative he is, acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best
interests of the corporation or, in the case of a person
serving as a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan or trust,
either in the best interests of the corporation or in the
best interests of the participants and beneficiaries of such
employee benefit plan or trust and consistent with the
provisions of such employee
<PAGE>
benefit plan or trust and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, that he had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful, or (3) the court, on
application as provided in subsection (e) of this section,
shall have determined that in view of all the circumstances
such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to be
indemnified, and then for such amount as the court shall
determine; except that, in connection with an alleged claim
based upon his purchase or sale of securities of the
corporation or of another enterprise, which he serves or
served at the request of the corporation, the corporation
shall only indemnify such person after the court shall have
determined, on application as proided in subsection (e) of
this section, that in view of all the circumstances such
person is fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified,
and then for such amount as the court shall determine.
The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order,
settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or
its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption
that the person did not act in good faith or in a manner
which he did not reasonably believe to be in the best
interests of the corporation or of the participants and
beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan or trust and
consistent with the provisions of such employee benefit
plan or trust, or, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, that he had reasonable cause to believe that
his conduct was unlawful.
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this section, a corporation
shall indemnify any person made a party to any proceeding,
by or in the right of the corporation, to procure a judgment
in its favor by reason of the fact that he, or the person
whose legal representative he is, is or was a shareholder,
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or
an eligible outside party, against reasonable expenses
actually incurred by him in connection with such proceeding
in relation to matters as to which such person, or the person
whose legal representative he is, is finally adjudged not to
have breached his duty to the corporation, or where the
court, on application as provided in subsection (e) of this
section, shall have determined that in view of all the
circumstances such person is fairly and reasonably entitled
to be indemnified, and then for such amount as the court
shall determine. The corporation shall not so indemnify any
such person for amounts paid to the corporation, to a
plaintiff or to counsel for a plaintiff in settling or
otherwise disposing of a proceeding, with or without court
approval; or for expenses incurred in defending a proceeding
which is settled or otherwise disposed of without court
approval.
(d) The conclusion provided for in subsection (b) of this section
may be reached by any one of the following: (1) The board
of directors of the corporation by a consent in writing
signed by a majority of those directors who were not parties
to such proceeding; (2) independent legal counsel selected by
a consent in writing signed by a majority of those directors
who were not parties to such proceeding; (3) in the case of
any employee or agent who is not an officer or director of
the corporation, the corporation's general counsel; or (4)
the shareholders of the corporation by the affirmative vote
of at least a majority of the voting power of shares not
owned by parties to such proceeding, represented at an annual
or special meeting of shareholders, duly called with notice
of such purpose stated. Such person shall also be entitled
to apply to a court for such conclusion, upon application as
provided in subsection (e), even though the conclusion
reached by any of the foregoing shall have been adverse to
him or to the person whose legal representative he is.
<PAGE>
(e) Where an application for indemnification or for a conclusion
as provided in this section is made to a court, it shall be
made to the court in which the proceeding is pending or to
the superior court for the judicial district where the
principal office of the corporation is located. The
application shall be made in such manner and form as may be
required by the applicable rules of the court or, in the
absence thereof, by direction of the court. The court may
also direct the notice be given in such manner as it may
require at the expense of the corporation to the shareholders
of the corporation and to such other persons as the court may
designate. In the case of an application to a court in which
a proceeding is pending in which the person seeking
indemnification is a party by reason of the fact that he, or
the person whose legal representative he is, is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director,
partner, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another
enterprise, or as a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan or
trust maintained for the benefit of employees of any other
enterprise, timely notice of such application shall be given
by such person to the corporation.
(f) Expenses which may be indemnifiable under this section
incurred in defending a proceeding may be paid by the
corporation in advance of the final disposition of such
proceeding as authorized by the board of directors upon
agreement by or on behalf of the shareholder, director,
officer, employee, agent or eligible outside party, or his
legal representative, to repay such amount if he is later
found not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as
authorized in this section.
(g) A corporation shall not indemnify any shareholder, director,
officer, employee, agent or eligible outside party, other
than a shareholder, director, officer, employee, agent or
eligible outside party who is or was serving at the request
of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee or agent of another enterprise, against judgments,
fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement and expenses to
an extent either greater or less than that authorized in this
section. No provision made a part of the certificate or
incorporation, the bylaws, a resolution or shareholders or
directors, an agreement, or otherwise on or after October 1,
1982, shall be valid unless consistent with this section.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the corporation may procure
insurance providing greater indemnification and may share the
premium cost with any shareholder, director, officer,
employee, agent or eligible outside party on such basis as
may be agreed upon. The rights and remedies provided in this
section shall be exclusive."
The registrant hereby undertakes that insofar as indemnification for
liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") 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
<PAGE>
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 INSURANCE COMPANY
FILE NO. 33-83656
Dear Sir/Madam:
I have acted as General Counsel to Hartford Life Insurance Company (the
"Company"), a Connecticut insurance company, and Hartford Life 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 contract (the "Contracts") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. I have examined such documents (including the Form S-6 Registration
Statement) and reviewed such questions of law as I considered necessary and
appropriate, and on the basis of such examination and review, it is my
opinion that:
1. The Company is a corporation duly organized and validly existing as a stock
life insurance company under the laws of the State of Connecticut and is
duly authorized by the Insurance Department of the State of Connecticut to
issue the Contracts.
2. The Account is a duly authorized and validly existing separate account
established pursuant to the provisions of Section 38a-433 of the
Connecticut Statutes.
3. To the extent so provided under the Contracts, that portion of the assets
of the Account equal to the reserves and other contract liabilities with
respect to the Account will not be chargeable with liabilities arising out
of any other business that the Company may conduct.
