DIRECTOR LIFE 2
MODIFIED SINGLE PREMIUM VARIABLE LIFE
INSURANCE POLICIES
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
P.O. BOX 2999
HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT 06104-2999
[LOGO] TELEPHONE: 1-800-231-5453
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Prospectus describes Director Life 2, a modified single premium variable
life insurance policy ("Policy" or "Policies"), offered by Hartford Life
Insurance Company ("Hartford") to applicants age 90 and under. The Policies
allow the Policy Owner to pay a single premium and, subject to certain
restrictions, additional premiums.
The Policy is a modified endowment contract for federal income tax purposes,
except in certain cases described under "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23. A
Policy loan, distribution or other amount received from a modified endowment
contract during the life of the Insured will be taxed to the extent of any
accumulated income in the Policy. Any surrender amounts that are taxable will be
subject to a 10% additional tax, with certain exceptions.
Generally, the minimum initial premium Hartford will accept is $10,000. The
initial premium will be allocated to HVA Money Market Fund, Inc. After the right
to cancel period has expired, the amounts allocated will be transferred to the
Funds specified in the Policy Owner's application. The Funds underlying the
Sub-Accounts currently available under the Policy are: Hartford Advisers Fund,
Inc., Hartford Bond Fund, Inc., Hartford Capital Appreciation Fund, Inc.,
Hartford Dividend and Growth Fund, Inc., Hartford Index Fund, Inc., Hartford
International Advisers Fund, Inc., Hartford International Opportunities Fund,
Inc., Hartford Mortgage Securities Fund, Inc., Hartford Small Company Fund,
Inc., Hartford Stock Fund, Inc., HVA Money Market Fund, Inc., and Hartford
MidCap Fund, Inc.
There is no guaranteed minimum Account Value for a Policy. The Account Value of
a Policy will vary up or down to reflect the investment experience of the Funds
to which premiums have been allocated. The Policy Owner bears the investment
risk for all amounts allocated to the Funds. The Policy continues in effect as
long as the Cash Surrender Value is sufficient to pay the monthly charges under
the Policy ("Deduction Amount"). The Policy may terminate if the Cash Surrender
Value is insufficient to cover a Deduction Amount and, after expiration of a
specified period, no additional premium payments are received by Hartford.
The Policies provide for a Face Amount, which is the minimum death benefit under
the Policy. The Death Benefit may be greater than the Face Amount. The Account
Value will, and under certain circumstances the Death Benefit of the Policy may,
increase or decrease based on the investment experience of the Funds to which
premiums have been allocated. However, while the Policy is in effect, the Death
Benefit will never be less than the Face Amount. At the death of the Insured,
Hartford will pay the Death Proceeds to the beneficiary. The Death Proceeds
equal the Death Benefit less any Indebtedness under the Policy.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IT MAY NOT BE ADVANTAGEOUS TO PURCHASE VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE AS A REPLACEMENT
FOR YOUR CURRENT LIFE INSURANCE OR IF YOU ALREADY OWN A VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE
POLICY.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THIS PROSPECTUS IS VALID ONLY IF ACCOMPANIED BY THE CURRENT PROSPECTUSES OF THE
APPLICABLE ELIGIBLE FUNDS WHICH CONTAIN A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THOSE FUNDS. ALL
PROSPECTUSES SHOULD BE READ AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS THE SECURITIES

ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A
CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

SUMMARY
THE POLICIES
The Policies are life insurance policies with death benefits, cash values
and other traditional life insurance features. The Policies are "variable."
Unlike the fixed benefits of ordinary whole life insurance, the Account Value
will, and the Death Benefit may, increase or decrease based on the investment
experience of the Funds to which premium payments have been allocated. The
Policies are credited with units ("Accumulation Units") to calculate Account
Values. The Policy Owner may transfer the Account Values among the Funds.
The Policies can be issued on a single life or "last survivor" basis. For a
discussion of how last survivor Policies operate differently from single life
Policies, see "Last Survivor Policies," page 17.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS
Separate Account Five ("Separate Account") funds the variable life insurance
Policies offered by this Prospectus. Hartford established the Separate Account
pursuant to Connecticut insurance law and it is organized as a unit investment
trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Policies
currently offer 12 Sub-Accounts each investing exclusively in a Fund. The
investment objectives of the Funds are as set forth in "The Separate Account --
The Funds," page 8. Applicants should read the Funds' prospectuses accompanying
this Prospectus in connection with the purchase of a Policy.

(1) For a complete description of the nature of the services provided in
consideration of the operating expenses deducted, please see the Fund
prospectuses.
(2) The MidCap Fund is a new Fund: operating expenses are based on annualized
estimates of such expenses to be incurred in the current fiscal year. HL
Investment Advisors, Inc. has agreed to waive its fees for this Fund until
the assets (excluding assets contributed by companies affiliated with HL
Investment Advisors, Inc.) first reach $20 million. Without this waiver, the
investment advisory fee would be .575% annually, total operating expense
without the waiver would be .90% annually.
The investment adviser for all the Funds is HL Investment Advisors, Inc., an
affiliate of Hartford. HL Investment Advisors, Inc. retains a sub-investment
adviser with respect to some of the Funds, and has entered into an investment
services agreement with respect to some of the Funds. See "The Separate
Account," page 8.
PREMIUMS
The Policy permits the Policy Owner to pay a large single premium and,
subject to restrictions, additional premiums. The Policy Owner may choose a
minimum initial premium of 80%, 90% or 100% of the Guideline Single Premium
(based on the Face Amount). Under current underwriting rules, which are subject
to change, applicants between the ages of 35 and 80 may be eligible for
simplified underwriting without a medical examination if they meet simplified
underwriting standards. For applicants who are below age 35 or above age 80, or
who do not meet simplified underwriting eligibility, full underwriting applies,
except that substandard underwriting applies in those cases that represent
substandard risks according to customary underwriting guidelines.
DEDUCTIONS AND CHARGES
On the Policy Date and on each Monthly Activity Date, Hartford will deduct a
Deduction Amount from the Account Value. The Deduction Amount will be made pro
rata from each Sub-Account. The Deduction Amount includes a cost of insurance
charge, a Tax Expense charge under Option 1, an administrative charge and a
mortality and expense risk charge. If the Cash Surrender Value is not sufficient
to cover a Deduction Amount due on any Monthly Activity Date the Policy may
lapse. See "Deductions and
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 7
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Charges" page 11, and "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and Reinstatement,"
page 16.
If the Account Value on a Policy Anniversary or on any date the Policy is
surrendered is less than $50,000, Hartford will deduct an annual maintenance fee
of $30. See "Deductions and Charges -- Annual Maintenance Fee," page 13.
The Policy Owner may pay certain deductions and charges by electing one of
two available options at the time the Policy is issued. Once elected, the Policy
Owner Options cannot be changed:
Under Option 1:
- - a Mortality and Expense Risk charge is deducted monthly from Account Value at
an annual rate of .90% in Policy Years 1 through 10 and at an annual rate of
.50% in Policy Years 11 and beyond.
- - a Tax Expense charge is also deducted monthly at an annual rate of .40% for
the first 10 Policy Years.
- - an Unamortized Tax charge is imposed during the first 9 Policy Years on
surrenders or partial surrenders according to the rate set forth in
"Deductions and Charges -- Policy Owner Options -- Unamortized Tax Charge"
page 13.
Under Option 2: (May not be available in all states)
- - a Mortality and Expense Risk charge is deducted monthly from Account Value at
an annual rate of .65% in Policy Years 1 through 10 and an annual rate of .50%
in Policy Years 11 and beyond.
- - a Tax Expense charge is deducted from any Premium payment in all Policy Years
at an annual rate of 4.0%.
Hartford may set up a provision for income taxes against the assets of the
Separate Account. See "Deductions and Charges -- Taxes Charged Against the
Separate Account," page 14, and "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
Applicants should review the Funds' prospectuses accompanying this
Prospectus for a description of the charges assessed against the assets of the
Funds.
Upon surrender of the Policy and partial surrenders in excess of the Annual
Withdrawal Amount, a Surrender Charge may be assessed. See "Deductions and
Charges -- Surrender Charge," page 13.
For a discussion of the tax consequences of surrender of the Policy or a
partial surrender, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
DEATH BENEFIT
The Policies provide for a Face Amount which is the minimum Death Benefit
under the Policy. The Death Benefit may be greater than the Face Amount. At the
death of the Insured, Hartford will pay the Death Proceeds to the beneficiary of
the Policy. See "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 14.
ACCOUNT VALUE
The Account Value of the Policy will increase or decrease to reflect the
investment experience of the Funds applicable to the Policy and deductions for
the monthly Deduction Amount. There is no minimum guaranteed Account Value and
the Policy Owner bears the risk of the investment in the Funds. See "Policy
Benefits and Rights -- Account Value," page 14.
POLICY LOANS
A Policy Owner may obtain one or both types of cash loans from Hartford.
Both types of loans are secured by the Policy. At the time a loan is requested,
the aggregate amount of all loans (including the currently applied for loan) may
not exceed 90% of the Cash Value. See "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Policy
Loans," page 15.
LAPSE
A Policy may terminate if the Cash Surrender Value on any Monthly Activity
Date is less than the required Deduction Amount. Hartford will give written
notice to the Policy Owner and a 61-day grace period during which additional
amounts may be paid to continue the Policy. See "Policy Benefits and Rights --
Policy Loans," page 15, and "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and
Reinstatement," page 16.
CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
A Policy Owner has a limited right to return the Policy for cancellation. If
the Policy Owner returns the Policy to Hartford or to the agent who sold the
Policy, to be canceled within ten days after delivery of the Policy to the
Policy Owner (in certain cases, this free-look period is longer), Hartford will
return to the Policy Owner, within seven days thereafter, the greater of the
premiums paid for the Policy, less any Indebtedness, or the sum of (1) the
Account Value, less any indebtedness, on the date the returned Policy is
received by Hartford or its agent and (2) any deductions under the Policy or by
the Funds for taxes, charges or fees.
In addition, once the Policy is in force, it may be exchanged during the
first 24 months after its issuance for a permanent life insurance Policy on the
life of the Insured without submitting proof of insurability. See "Policy
Benefits and Rights -- Cancellation and Exchange Rights," page 17.

TAX CONSEQUENCES
The current federal tax law generally excludes all death benefit payments
from the gross income of the Policy beneficiary. The Policies generally will be
treated as modified endowment contract. This status does not affect the
Policies' classification as life insurance, nor does it affect the exclusion of
death benefit payments from gross income. However, loans, distributions or other
amounts received under a modified endowment contract are taxed to the extent of
accumulated income in the Policy (generally, the excess of Account Value over
premiums paid) and may be subject to a 10% penalty tax. See "Federal Tax
Considerations," page 23.
THE COMPANY
Hartford Life Insurance Company ("Hartford") is a stock life insurance
company engaged in the business of writing health and life insurance, both
individual and group, in all states of the United States and the District of
Columbia. Hartford was originally incorporated under the laws of Massachusetts
on June 5, 1902, and was subsequently redomiciled to Connecticut. Its offices
are located in Simsbury, Connecticut; however, its mailing address is P.O. Box
2999, Hartford, CT 06104-2999. Hartford is a subsidiary of Hartford Fire
Insurance Company, one of the largest multiple lines insurance carriers in the
United States. Hartford is ultimately controlled by The Hartford Financial
Services Group, Inc., a Delaware Corporation.
Hartford is rated A+ (superior) by A.M. Best and Company, Inc., on the basis
of its financial soundness and operating performance. Hartford is rated AA by
Standard & Poor's and AA+ by Duff and Phelps, on the basis of its claims paying
ability. These ratings do not apply to the investment performance of the
Sub-Accounts. The ratings apply to Hartford's ability to meet its insurance
obligations, including those described in this Prospectus.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
GENERAL
Separate Account Five ("Separate Account") is a separate account of Hartford
established on August 17, 1994 pursuant to the insurance laws of the State of
Connecticut and it is organized as a unit investment trust registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The
Separate Account meets the definition of "separate account" under federal
securities law. Under Connecticut law, the assets of the Separate Account are
held exclusively for the benefit of Policy Owners and persons entitled to
payments under the Policies. The assets of the Separate Account are not
chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business which Hartford may
conduct.
FUNDS

A Policy Owner may allocate premiums among the Funds. Policy Owners should
review the following brief descriptions of the investment objectives of the
Funds in connection with that allocation. Policy Owners are also advised to read
the Funds' prospectus accompanying this Prospectus for more detailed
information. There is no assurance that any of the Funds will achieve its stated
objectives.

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

sub-investment adviser for Hartford Advisers Fund, Hartford Capital Appreciation
Fund, Hartford Dividend and Growth Fund, Hartford International Advisers Fund,
Hartford International Opportunities Fund, Hartford Small Company Fund, Hartford
Stock Fund and Hartford MidCap Fund.

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

</TABLE>
COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE
The cost of insurance charge covers Hartford's anticipated mortality costs
for standard and substandard risks. Current cost of insurance rates are lower
after the tenth Policy Year and are based on whether 100%, 90% or 80% of the
Guideline Single Premium has been paid at issue. The current cost of insurance
charge will not exceed the guaranteed cost of insurance charge. This charge is a
guaranteed maximum monthly rate multiplied by the Coverage Amount on the Policy
Date or any Monthly Activity Date. For standard risks, the guaranteed cost of
insurance rate is 125% of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Smoker/Non-
Smoker Mortality Table through age 90, grading down to 100% of the Commissioners
Standard Ordinary Smoker/ Non-Smoker Mortality Table at age 100 (age last
birthday). (Unisex rates may be required in some states.) A table of guaranteed
cost of insurance rates per $1,000 will be included in each Policy; however,
Hartford reserves the right to use rates less than those shown in the Table.
Substandard risks and Policies issued employing simplified underwriting
procedures will be charged at a higher cost of insurance rate that will not
exceed rates based on a multiple of the 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary
Smoker/ Non-Smoker Mortality Table (age last birthday). The multiple will be
based on the Insured's substandard rating.
The Coverage Amount is first set on the Policy Date and then on each Monthly
Activity Date. On such days, it is the Face Amount less the Account Value
subject to a Minimum Coverage Amount. The Coverage Amount remains level between
the Monthly Activity Dates. The Coverage Amount may be adjusted to continue to
qualify the Policies as life insurance Policies under the current federal tax
law. Under that law, the Minimum Coverage Amount is a stated percentage of the
Account Value of the Policy determined on each Monthly Activity Date. The
percentages vary according to the attained age of the Insured.
EXAMPLE:
Face Amount = $100,000
Account Value on the Monthly Activity Date = $70,000
Insured's attained age = 60
Minimum Coverage Amount percentage for age 60 = 30%
On the Monthly Activity Date, the Coverage Amount is $30,000. This is
calculated by subtracting the Account Value on the Monthly Activity Date
($70,000) from the Face Amount ($100,000), subject to a possible Minimum
Coverage Amount adjustment. This Minimum Coverage Amount is determined by taking
a percentage of the Account Value on the Monthly Activity Date. In this case,
the Minimum Coverage Amount is $21,000 (30% of $70,000). Since $21,000 is less
than the Face Amount less the Account Value ($30,000), no adjustment is
necessary. Therefore, the Coverage Amount will be $30,000.
Assume that the Account Value in the above example was $90,000. The Minimum
Coverage Amount would be $27,000 (30% of $90,000). Since this is greater than
the Face Amount less the Account Value ($10,000), the Coverage Amount for the
Policy Month is $27,000. (For an explanation of the Death Benefit, see "Policy
Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 14.)
Because the Account Value and, as a result, the Coverage Amount under a
Policy may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance charge may also vary
on each Monthly Activity Date.
ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE
Hartford will deduct monthly from the Account Value attributable to the
Separate Account an administrative charge equal to an annual rate of 0.25%. This
charge compensates Hartford for administrative expenses incurred in the
administration of the Separate Account and the Policies.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 13
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE
If the Account Value on a Policy Anniversary or on the date the Policy is
surrendered is less than $50,000, Hartford will deduct on such date an annual
maintenance fee of $30. This fee will help reimburse Hartford for administrative
and maintenance costs of the Policies. The sum of the monthly administrative
charges and the annual maintenance fee will not exceed the cost Hartford incurs
in providing administrative services under the Policies.
SURRENDER CHARGE
Upon surrender of the Policy or partial surrenders in excess of the Annual
Withdrawal Amount, a Surrender Charge may be assessed. In Policy Years 1 through
3, this charge is 7.5% of surrendered Account Value attributable to premiums
paid. In Policy Years 4 through 5, this charge is 6%. In Policy Years 6 through
7, this charge is 4%. In Policy Years 8 through 9, this charge is 2%. After the
ninth Policy Year, there is no charge.
In determining the Surrender Charge and any Unamortized Tax charge discussed
below, any surrender or partial surrender during the first ten Policy Years will
be deemed first from premiums paid and then from earnings. If an amount equal to
all premiums paid has been withdrawn, no charge will be assessed on a surrender
of the remaining Account Value.
The Surrender Charge is imposed to cover a portion of the sales expense
incurred by Hartford in distributing the Policies. This expense includes agents
commissions, advertising and the printing of prospectuses. See "Policy Benefits
and Rights -- Amount Payable on Surrender of the Policy," page 16.
POLICY OWNER OPTIONS
In addition to the deductions and charges described above, the Policy Owner,
at the time the Policy is issued, will elect one of two options described below
to pay charges relating to certain taxes and mortality and expense risk charges.
The option selected by the Policy Owner may affect Policy Value.
OPTION 1: ASSET-BASED CHARGES: Under this payment option, the Policy Owner
will pay:
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE: Hartford will deduct monthly from the
Account Value attributable to the Separate Account for Policy Years 1 through 10
a charge equal to an annual rate of 0.90% for the mortality risks and expense
risks Hartford assumes in relation to the variable portion of the Policies. In
Policy Years 11 and beyond, the charge drops to an annual rate of 0.50% for the
mortality risks and expense risks Hartford assumes in relation to the variable
portion of the Policies. The mortality risk assumed is that the cost of
insurance charges specified in the Policy will be insufficient to meet claims.
Hartford also assumes a risk that the Face Amount (the minimum Death Benefit)
will exceed the Coverage Amount on the date of death plus the Account Value on
the date Hartford receives written notice of death. The expense risk assumed is
that expenses incurred in issuing and administering the Policies will exceed the
administrative charges set in the Policy. Hartford may profit from the mortality
and expense risk charge and may use any profits for any proper purpose,
including any difference between the cost it incurs in distributing the Policies
and the proceeds of the Surrender Charge. The mortality and expense risk charge
is deducted while the Policy is in force, including the duration of a payment
option.
TAX EXPENSE CHARGE: Hartford will deduct monthly from the Account Value a
charge equal to an annual rate of 0.40% for the first ten Policy Years. This
charge compensates Hartford for premium taxes imposed by various states and
local jurisdictions and for the cost of the capitalization of certain policy
acquisition expenses under Section 848 of the Code. The charge includes a
premium tax deduction of 0.25% and Section 848 costs of 0.15%. The 0.25% premium
tax deduction over ten Policy Years approximates Hartford's average expenses for
state and local premium taxes (2.5%). Premium taxes vary, ranging from zero to
more than 4.0%. The premium tax deduction is made whether or not any premium tax
applies. The deduction may be higher or lower than the premium tax imposed.
However, Hartford does not expect to make a profit from this deduction. The
0.15% charge helps reimburse Hartford for approximate expenses incurred from
federal taxes under Section 848 of the Code.
UNAMORTIZED TAX CHARGE: Under this option, during the first nine Policy
Years, an Unamortized Tax charge will be imposed on surrender or partial
surrenders. The Unamortized Tax charge is shown below, as a percentage of
Account Value, at the end of each Policy Year:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

</TABLE>
After the ninth Policy Year, no Unamortized Tax charge will be imposed.

14 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPTION 2: FRONTED CHARGES: Under this option, the Policy Owner will pay:
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE: In Policy Years 1 through 10, Hartford
will deduct monthly from the Account Value attributable to the Separate Account
a charge equal to an annual rate of 0.65% for the mortality risks and expense
risks Hartford assumes in relation to the variable portion of the Policies. In
Policy Years 11 and beyond, the charge drops to an annual rate of 0.50%. The
mortality risk assumed is that the cost of insurance charges specified in the
Policy will be insufficient to meet claims. Hartford also assumes a risk that
the Face Amount (the minimum Death Benefit) will exceed the Coverage Amount on
the date of death plus the Account Value on the date Hartford receives written
notice of death. The expense risk assumed is that expenses incurred in issuing
and administering the Policies will exceed the administrative charges set in the
Policy. Hartford may profit from the mortality and expense risk charge and may
use any profits for any proper purpose, including any difference between the
cost it incurs in distributing the Policies and the proceeds of the Surrender
Charge. The mortality and expense risk charge is deducted while the Policy is in
force, including the duration of a payment option.
TAX EXPENSE CHARGE: Hartford will deduct from Premium payments a tax expense
charge equal to an annual rate of 4.0% for all Policy Years. This charge
compensates Hartford for premium taxes imposed by various states and local
jurisdictions and for federal taxes imposed under Section 848 of the Code. The
charge includes a premium tax deduction of 2.5% and a federal tax deduction of
1.5%. The premium tax deduction approximates Hartford's average expenses for
state and local premium taxes. Premium taxes vary, ranging from zero to more
than 4.0%. The premium tax deduction is made whether or not any premium tax
applies. The deduction may be higher or lower than the premium tax imposed.
However, Hartford does not expect to make a profit from this deduction. The
federal tax deduction helps reimburse Hartford for approximate expenses incurred
from federal taxes under Section 848 of the Code. The federal tax deduction is a
factor Hartford must use when computing the maximum sales load chargeable under
Securities and Exchange Commission rules.
This Option may not be available in all states.
OTHER DEDUCTIONS OR CHARGES
CHARGES AGAINST THE FUNDS
The Separate Account purchases shares of the Funds at net asset value. The
net asset value of the Fund shares reflects investment advisory fees and
administrative expenses already deducted from the assets of the Funds. These
charges are described in the Funds' prospectuses accompanying this Prospectus.
TAXES CHARGED AGAINST THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
Currently, no charge is made to the Separate Account for federal income
taxes that may be attributable to the Separate Account. Hartford may, however,
make such a charge in the future. Charges for other taxes, if any, attributable
to the Separate Account may also be made.
POLICY BENEFITS AND RIGHTS
DEATH BENEFIT
While in force, the Policy provides for the payment of the Death Proceeds to
the named beneficiary when the Insured under the Policy dies. The Death Proceeds
payable to the beneficiary equal the Death Benefit less any loans outstanding.
The Death Benefit equals the greater of (1) the Face Amount or (2) the Account
Value multiplied by a specified percentage. The percentages vary according to
the attained age of the Insured and are specified in the Policy. Therefore, an
increase in Account Value may increase the Death Benefit. However, because the
Death Benefit will never be less than the Face Amount, a decrease in Account
Value may decrease the Death Benefit but never below the Face Amount.
EXAMPLES:
<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>
In Example A, the Death Benefit equals $116,250, i.e., the greater of
$100,000 (the Face Amount) or $116,250 (the Account Value at the Date of Death
of $46,500, multiplied by the specified percentage of 250%). This amount less
any outstanding loans constitutes the Death Proceeds which Hartford would pay to
the beneficiary.
In Example B, the death benefit is $100,000, i.e., the greater of $100,000
(the Face Amount) or $85,000 (the Account Value of $34,000, multiplied by the
specified percentage of 250%).
All or part of the Death Proceeds may be paid in cash or applied under a
"Payment Option." See "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 18.
ACCOUNT VALUE
The Account Value of a Policy will be computed on each Valuation Day. The
Account Value will vary to reflect the investment experience of the Funds, the
value of the Loan Account and the monthly Deduction Amounts. There is no minimum
guaranteed Account Value.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 15
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Account Value of a particular Policy is related to the net asset value
of the Funds to which premiums on the Policy have been allocated. The Account
Value on any Valuation Day is calculated by multiplying the number of
Accumulation Units credited to the Policy in each Sub-Account as of the
Valuation Day by the Accumulation Unit Value of that Sub-Account, and then
summing the result for all the Sub-Accounts credited to the Policy and the value
of the Loan Account. See "The Policy -- Accumulation Unit Values," page 11.
TRANSFER OF ACCOUNT VALUE
While the Policy remains in force, and subject to Hartford's transfer rules
then in effect, the Policy Owner may request that part or all of the Account
Value of a particular Sub-Account be transferred to other Sub-Accounts. Hartford
reserves the right to restrict the number of such transfers to no more than 12
per Policy Year, with no two transfers being made on consecutive Valuation Days.
However, there are no restrictions on the number of transfers at the present
time. Transfers may be made by written request or by calling toll free
1-800-231-5453. Transfers by telephone may be made by the agent of record or by
the attorney-in-fact pursuant to a power of attorney. Telephone transfers may
not be permitted in some states. The policy of Hartford and its agents and
affiliates is that they will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting
upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. Hartford will employ
reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are
genuine; otherwise, Hartford may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or
fraudulent instructions. The procedures Hartford follows for transactions
initiated by telephone include requirements that callers provide certain
information for identification purposes. All transfer instructions by telephone
are tape recorded. Hartford will send the Policy Owner a confirmation of the
transfer within five days from the date of any instruction. IT IS THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE POLICY OWNER TO VERIFY THE ACCURACY OF ALL CONFIRMATIONS
OF TRANSFERS AND TO PROMPTLY ADVISE HARTFORD OF ANY INACCURACIES WITHIN ONE
BUSINESS DAY OF RECEIPT OF THE CONFIRMATION.
Hartford may modify the right to reallocate Account Value among the
Sub-Accounts if Hartford determines, in its sole discretion, that the exercise
of that right by one or more Policy Owners is, or would be, to the disadvantage
of other Policy Owners. Any modification could be applied to transfers to or
from some or all of the Sub-Accounts and could include, but not be limited to,
the requirement of a minimum period between each transfer, not accepting
transfer requests of an agent acting under the power of attorney on behalf of
more than one Policy Owner, or limiting the dollar amount that may be
transferred among the Sub-Accounts at one time. These restrictions may be
applied in any manner reasonably designed to prevent any use of the transfer
right that Hartford considers to be disadvantageous to other Policy Owners.
As a result of a transfer, the number of Accumulation Units credited to the
Sub-Account from which the transfer is made will be reduced by the number
obtained by dividing the amount transferred by the Accumulation Unit Value of
that Sub-Account on the Valuation Day Hartford receives the transfer request.
The number of Accumulation Units credited to the Sub-Account to which the
transfer is made will be increased by the number obtained by dividing the amount
transferred by the Accumulation Unit Value of that Sub-Account on the Valuation
Day Hartford receives the transfer request.
POLICY LOANS
While the Policy is in effect, a Policy Owner may obtain, without the
consent of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not
irrevocable), one or both of two types of cash loans from Hartford. Both types
of loans are secured by the Policy. The aggregate loans (including the currently
applied for loan) may not exceed, at the time a loan is requested, 90% of the
Cash Value.
The loan amount will be transferred pro rata from each Sub-Account
attributable to the Policy (unless the Policy Owner specifies otherwise) to the
Loan Account. The amounts allocated to the Loan Account will earn interest at a
rate of 4% per annum (6% for "Preferred Loans"). The amount of the Loan Account
that equals the difference between the Cash Value and the total of all premiums
paid under the Policy is considered a "Preferred Loan." For exchanges which take
place according to IRC Section 1035(a) that have an outstanding loan at the time
of transfer, the difference between the Account Value and the total of all
premiums paid under the Policy is considered a Preferred Loan. The loan interest
rate that Hartford will charge on all loans is 6% per annum. The difference
between the value of the Loan Account and the Indebtedness will be transferred
on a pro-rata basis from the Sub-Accounts to the Loan Account on each Monthly
Activity Date. The proceeds of a loan will be delivered to the Policy Owner
within seven business days of Hartford's receipt of the loan request.
If the aggregate outstanding loan(s) secured by the Policy exceeds the
Account Value of the Policy less any Surrender Charges and due and unpaid
Deduction Amount, Hartford will give written notice to the Policy Owner that,
unless Hartford receives an additional payment within 61 days to reduce the
aggregate outstanding loan(s) secured by the Policy, the Policy may lapse.
All or any part of any loan secured by a Policy may be repaid while the
Policy is still in effect. When loan repayments or interest payments are made,
they will be allocated among the Sub-Account(s) in the same percentage as
<PAGE>
16 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
premiums are allocated (unless the Policy Owner requests a different allocation)
and an amount equal to the payment will be deducted from the Loan Account. Any
outstanding loan at the end of a grace period must be repaid before the Policy
will be reinstated. See "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Lapse and Reinstatement,"
page 16.
A loan, whether or not repaid, will have a permanent effect on the Account
Value because the investment results of each Sub-Account will apply only to the
amount remaining in such Sub-Accounts. The longer a loan is outstanding, the
greater the effect is likely to be. The effect could be favorable or
unfavorable. If the Sub-Accounts earn more than the annual interest rate for
amounts held in the Loan Account, a Policy Owner's Account Value will not
increase as rapidly as it would have had no loan been made. If the Sub-Accounts
earn less than the annual interest rate for amounts held in the Loan Account,
the Policy Owner's Account Value will be greater than it would have been had no
loan been made. Also, if not repaid, the aggregate outstanding loan(s) will
reduce the Death Proceeds and Cash Surrender Value otherwise payable.
AMOUNT PAYABLE ON SURRENDER OF THE POLICY
While the Policy is in force, a Policy Owner may elect, without the consent
of the beneficiary (provided the designation of beneficiary is not irrevocable),
to fully surrender the Policy. Upon surrender, the Policy Owner will receive the
Cash Surrender Value determined as of the day Hartford receives the Policy
Owner's written request or the date requested by the Policy Owner whichever is
later. The Cash Surrender Value equals the Account Value less any Surrender
Charges and any Unamortized Tax charge and all Indebtedness. Hartford will pay
the Cash Surrender Value of the Policy within seven days of receipt by Hartford
of the written request or on the effective surrender date requested by the
Policy Owner, whichever is later. The Policy will terminate on the date of
receipt of the written request, or the date the Policy Owner requests the
surrender to be effective, whichever is later. For a discussion of the tax
consequences of surrendering the Policy, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page
23.
If the Policy Owner chooses to apply the surrender proceeds to a payment
option (see "Other Matters -- Payment Options," page 18), the Surrender Charge
will not be imposed to the surrender proceeds applied to the option. In other
words, the surrender proceeds will equal the Cash Surrender Value without
reduction for the Surrender Charge. However, any Unamortized Tax charge, if
applicable, will be deducted from the surrender proceeds to be applied. In
addition, amounts withdrawn from payment Option 1, Option 5 or Option 6 will be
subject to any applicable Surrender Charge.
PARTIAL SURRENDERS
While the Policy is in force, a Policy Owner may elect, by written request,
to make partial surrenders from the Cash Surrender Value. The Cash Surrender
Value, after partial surrender, must at least equal Hartford's minimum amount
rules then in effect; otherwise, the request will be treated as a request for
full surrender. The partial surrender will be deducted pro rata from each
Sub-Account, unless the Policy Owner instructs otherwise. The Face Amount will
be reduced proportionate to the reduction in the Account Value due to the
partial surrender. Partial surrenders in excess of the Annual Withdrawal Amount
will be subject to the Surrender Charge and any Unamortized Tax charges. See
"Deductions and Charges -- Surrender Charge," page 13, and "Deductions and
Charges -- Policy Owner Option 1," page 13. For a discussion of the tax
consequences of partial surrenders, see "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
BENEFITS AT MATURITY
If the Insured is living on the "Maturity Date" (the anniversary of the
Policy Date on which the Insured is age 100), on surrender of the Policy to
Hartford, Hartford will pay to the Policy Owner the Cash Surrender Value. In
such case, the Policy will terminate and Hartford will have no further
obligations under the Policy. (The Maturity Date may be extended by rider where
approved, but see "Federal Tax Considerations -- Income Taxation of Policy
Benefits," page 24.)
LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
The Policy will remain in force until the Cash Surrender Value is
insufficient to cover the Deduction Amount due on a Monthly Activity Date.
Hartford will notify the Policy Owner of the deficiency in writing and will
provide a 61-day grace period to pay an amount sufficient to cover the Deduction
Amounts due as well as three. The notice will indicate the amount that must be
paid.
The Policy will continue through the grace period, but if no additional
premium payment is made, it will terminate at the end of the grace period. If
the person insured under the Policy dies during the grace period, the Death
Proceeds payable under the Policy will be reduced by the Deduction Amount(s) due
and unpaid. See "Policy Benefits and Rights -- Death Benefit," page 14.
If the Policy lapses, the Policy Owner may apply for reinstatement of the
Policy by payment of the reinstatement premium shown in the Policy and any
applicable charges. A request for reinstatement may be made within five years of
lapse. If a loan was outstanding at the time of lapse, Hartford will require
repayment of the loan before permitting
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 17
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
reinstatement. In addition, Hartford reserves the right to require evidence of
insurability satisfactory to Hartford.
CANCELLATION AND EXCHANGE RIGHTS
A Policy Owner has a limited right to return a Policy for cancellation. If
the Policy is returned, by mail or personal delivery to Hartford or to the agent
who sold the Policy, to be canceled within ten days after delivery of the Policy
to the Policy Owner (a longer free-look period is provided in certain cases),
Hartford will return to the Policy Owner, within seven days, the greater of
premiums paid for the Policy less Indebtedness or the sum of (1) the Account
Value less any Indebtedness on the date the returned Policy is received by
Hartford or its agent and (2) any deductions under Policy or by the Funds for
taxes, charges or fees.
Once the Policy is in effect, it may be exchanged, during the first 24
months after its issuance, for a non-variable flexible premium adjustable life
insurance Policy offered by Hartford (or an affiliated company) on the life of
the Insured. No evidence of insurability will be required. The new Policy will
have, at the election of the Policy Owner, either the same Coverage Amount as
under the exchanged Policy on the date of exchange or the same Death Benefit.
The effective date, issue date and issue age will be the same as existed under
the exchanged Policy. If a Policy loan was outstanding, the entire loan must be
repaid. There may be a cash adjustment required on the exchange.
SUSPENSION OF VALUATION,
PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS
Hartford will suspend all procedures requiring valuation (including
transfers, surrenders and loans) on any day a national stock exchange is closed
or trading is restricted due to an existing emergency, as defined by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, or on any day the Securities and Exchange
Commission has ordered that the right of surrender of the Policies be suspended
for the protection of Policy Owners, until such condition has ended.
LAST SURVIVOR POLICIES
The Policies are offered on both a single life and a "last survivor" basis.
Policies sold on a last survivor basis operate in a manner almost identical to
the single life version. The most important difference is that the last survivor
version involves two Insureds and the Death Proceeds are paid on the death of
the last surviving Insured. The other significant differences between the last
survivor and single life versions are listed below.
1. The cost of insurance charges under the last survivor Policies are
determined in a manner that reflects the anticipated mortality of the two
Insureds and the fact that the Death Benefit is not payable until the death
of the second Insured. See the last survivor illustrations in "Appendix B,"
page 29.
2. To qualify for simplified underwriting under a last survivor Policy, both
Insureds must meet the simplified underwriting standards.
3. For a last survivor Policy to be reinstated, both Insureds must be alive on
the date of reinstatement.
4. The Policy provisions regarding misstatement of age or sex, suicide and
incontestability apply to either Insured.
5. Additional tax disclosures applicable to last survivor Policies are provided
in "Federal Tax Considerations," page 23.
OTHER MATTERS
VOTING RIGHTS
In accordance with its interpretation of presently applicable law, Hartford
will vote the shares of the Funds at regular and special meetings of the
shareholders of the Funds in accordance with instructions from Policy Owners (or
the assignee of the Policy, as the case may be) having a voting interest in the
Separate Account. The number of shares held in the Separate Account which are
attributable to each Policy Owner is determined by dividing the Policy Owner's
interest in each Sub-Account by the net asset value of the applicable shares of
the Funds. Hartford will vote shares for which no instructions have been given
and shares which are not attributable to Policy Owners (i.e., shares owned by
Hartford) in the same proportion as it votes shares for which it has received
instructions. However, if the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any rule
promulgated thereunder should be amended, or if Hartford's present
interpretation should change and, as a result, Hartford determines it is
permitted to vote the shares of the Funds in its own right, it may elect to do
so.
The voting interests of the Policy Owner (or the assignee) in the Funds will
be determined as follows: Policy Owners may cast one vote for each full or
fractional Accumulation Unit owned under the Policy and allocated to a
Sub-Account, the assets of which are invested in the particular Fund on the
record date for the shareholder meeting for that Fund. If, however, a Policy
Owner has taken a loan secured by the Policy, amounts transferred from the Sub-
Account(s) to the Loan Account in connection with the loan (see "Policy Benefits
and Rights -- Policy Loans," page 15) will not be considered in determining the
voting interests of the Policy Owner. Policy Owners should review the Funds
prospectus accompanying this Prospectus to determine matters on which
shareholders may vote.
<PAGE>
18 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hartford may, when required by state insurance regulatory authorities,
disregard Policy Owners' voting instructions if such instructions require that
the shares be voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or
investment objective of one or more of the Funds or to approve or disapprove an
investment advisory Policy for the Funds.
In addition, Hartford itself may disregard Policy Owners' voting
instructions in favor of changes initiated by a Policy Owner in the investment
policy or the investment adviser of the Funds if Hartford reasonably disapproves
of such changes. A change would be disapproved only if the proposed change is
contrary to state law or prohibited by state regulatory authorities. If Hartford
does disregard voting instructions, a summary of that action and the reasons for
such action will be included in the next periodic report to Policy Owners.
STATEMENTS TO POLICY OWNERS
Hartford will maintain all records relating to the Separate Account and the
Sub-Accounts. At least once each Policy Year, Hartford will send to Policy
Owners a statement showing the Coverage Amount and the Account Value of the
Policy (indicating the number of Accumulation Units credited to the Policy in
each Sub-Account and the corresponding Accumulation Unit Value) and any
outstanding loan secured by the Policy as of the date of the statement. The
statement will also show premium paid, and Deduction Amounts under the Policy
since the last statement, and any other information required by any applicable
law or regulation.
LIMIT ON RIGHT TO CONTEST
Hartford may not contest the validity of the Policy after it has been in
force during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the Issue Date. If the
Policy is reinstated, the two-year period is measured from the date of
reinstatement. Any increase in the Coverage Amount as a result of a premium
payment is contestable for two years from its effective date. In addition, if
the Insured commits suicide in the two year period, or such period as specified
in state law, the benefit payable will be limited to the Account Value less any
Indebtedness.
MISSTATEMENT AS TO AGE AND SEX
If the age or sex of the Insured is incorrectly stated, the Death Benefit
will be appropriately adjusted as specified in the Policy.
PAYMENT OPTIONS
The surrender proceeds or Death Proceeds under the Policies may be paid in a
lump sum or may be applied to one of Hartford's payment options. The minimum
amount that may be applied under a payment option is $5,000, unless Hartford
consents to a lesser amount. UNDER PAYMENT OPTIONS 2, 3 AND 4, NO SURRENDER OR
PARTIAL SURRENDERS ARE PERMITTED AFTER PAYMENTS COMMENCE. FULL SURRENDER OR
PARTIAL SURRENDERS MAY BE MADE FROM PAYMENT OPTION 1 OR OPTION 6, BUT THEY ARE
SUBJECT TO THE SURRENDER CHARGE, IF APPLICABLE. ONLY A FULL SURRENDER IS ALLOWED
FROM PAYMENT OPTION 5. A SURRENDER FROM PAYMENT OPTION 5 WILL ALSO BE SUBJECT TO
THE SURRENDER CHARGE, IF APPLICABLE.
Hartford will pay interest of at least 3 1/2% per year on the Death Proceeds
from the date of the Insured's death to the date payment is made or a payment
option is elected. At such times, the proceeds are not subject to the investment
experience of the Separate Account.
The following options are available under the Policies (Hartford may offer
other payment options):
OPTION 1 -- Interest Income
This option offers payments of interest, at the rate Hartford declares, on
the amount applied under his option. The interest rate will never be less than
3 1/2% per year.
OPTION 2 -- Life Annuity
A life annuity is an annuity payable during the lifetime of the payee and
terminating with the last payment preceding the death of the payee. This option
offers the largest payment amount of any of the life annuity options, since
there is no guarantee of a minimum number of payments nor a provision for a
death benefit payable to a beneficiary.
It would be possible under this option for a payee to receive only one
annuity payment if he died prior to the due date of the second annuity payment,
two annuity payments if he died before the date of the third annuity payment,
etc.
OPTION 3 -- Life Annuity with 120, 180 or 240 Monthly Payments Certain
This annuity option is an annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of the
payee with the provision that payments will be made for a minimum of 120, 180 or
240 months, as elected. If, at the death of the payee, payments have been made
for less than the minimum elected number of months, then the present value (as
of the date of the payee's death) of any remaining guaranteed payments will be
paid in one sum to the beneficiary or beneficiaries designated, unless other
provisions have been made and approved by Hartford.
OPTION 4 -- Joint and Last Survivor Annuity
An annuity payable monthly during the joint lifetime of the payee and a
designated second person, and thereafter
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 19
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 Policy as
determined by Hartford.
In the event of the payee's death prior to the end of the designated period,
the present value (as of the date of the payee's death) of any remaining
guaranteed payments will be paid in one sum to the beneficiary or beneficiaries
designated unless other provisions have been made and approved by Hartford.
Option 5 is an option that does not involve life contingencies.
OPTION 6 -- 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 surrenders may
be made at any time.
VARIABLE AND FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS: When an Annuity is effected, unless
otherwise specified, the surrender proceeds or Death Proceeds held in the Sub-
Accounts will be applied to provide a variable annuity based on the pro rata
amount in the various Sub-Accounts. Fixed annuities options are also available.
YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHETHER THE ALLOCATION OF PROCEEDS AMONG SUB-ACCOUNTS OF THE
SEPARATE ACCOUNT FOR YOUR ANNUITY PAYMENTS ARE BASED ON THE INVESTMENT
ALTERNATIVE BEST SUITED TO YOUR RETIREMENT NEEDS.
VARIABLE ANNUITY: The Policy contains tables indicating the minimum dollar
amount of the first monthly payment under the optional variable forms of annuity
for each $1,000 of value of a Sub-Account. The first monthly payment varies
according to the form and type of variable payment annuity selected. The Policy
contains variable payment annuity tables derived from the 1983(a) Individual
Annuity Mortality Table, with ages set back one year and with an assumed
investment rate ("A.I.R.") of 5% per annum. The total first monthly variable
annuity payment is determined by multiplying the proceeds value (expressed in
thousands of dollars) of a Sub-Account by the amount of the first monthly
payment per $1,000 of value obtained from the tables in the Policy.
The amount of the first monthly variable annuity payment is divided by the
value of an annuity unit (an accounting unit of measure used to calculate the
value of annuity payments) for the appropriate Sub-Account no earlier than the
close of business on the fifth Valuation Day preceding the day on which the
payment is due in order to determine the number of annuity units represented by
the first payment. This number of annuity units remains fixed during the annuity
payment period and in each subsequent month the dollar amount of the variable
annuity payment is determined by multiplying this fixed number of annuity units
by the current annuity unit value.
LEVEL VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS WOULD BE PRODUCED IF THE INVESTMENT RATE
REMAINED CONSTANT AND EQUAL TO THE A.I.R. IN FACT, PAYMENTS WILL VARY UP OR DOWN
AS THE INVESTMENT RATE VARIES UP OR DOWN RELATIVE TO THE A.I.R.
FIXED ANNUITY: Fixed annuity payments are determined by multiplying the
amount applied to the annuity by a rate (to be determined by Hartford) which is
no less than the rate specified in the fixed payment annuity tables in the
Policy. The annuity payment will remain level for the duration of the annuity.
Hartford will make any other arrangements for income payments as may be
agreed on.
BENEFICIARY
The applicant names the beneficiary in the application for the Policy. The
Policy Owner may change the beneficiary (unless irrevocably named) during the
Insured's lifetime by written request to Hartford. If no beneficiary is living
when the Insured dies, the Death Proceeds will be paid to the Policy Owner if
living; otherwise to the Policy Owner's estate.
ASSIGNMENT
The Policy may be assigned as collateral for a loan or other obligation.
Hartford is not responsible for any payment made or action taken before receipt
of written notice of such assignment. Proof of interest must be filed with any
claim under a collateral assignment.
DIVIDENDS
No dividends will be paid under the Policies.

DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICIES
Hartford intends to sell the Policies in all jurisdictions where it is
licensed to do business. The Policies will be sold by life insurance sales
representatives who represent Hartford and who are registered representatives of
Hartford Equity Sales Company, Inc. ("HESCO") or certain other independent,
registered broker-dealers. Any sales representative or employee will have been
qualified to sell variable life insurance Policies under applicable federal and
state laws. Each broker-dealer is registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and all are members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") serves as Principal
Underwriter for the securities issued with respect to the Separate Account. Both
HESCO and HSD are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Hartford. 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 Policy Owners and
prospective Policy Owners in advertising, sales literature or other materials.
These topics may include the relationship between sectors of the economy and the
economy as a whole and its effect on various securities markets, investment
strategies and techniques (such as value investing, dollar cost averaging and
asset allocation), the advantages and disadvantages of investing in tax-
advantaged and taxable instruments, customer profiles and hypothetical purchase
scenarios, financial management and tax and retirement planning, and variable
annuities and other investment alternatives, including comparisons between the
Policies and the characteristics of, and market for, such alternatives.
SAFEKEEPING OF THE SEPARATE
ACCOUNT'S ASSETS
The assets of the Separate Account are held by Hartford. The assets of the
Separate Account are kept physically segregated and held separate and apart from
the General Account of Hartford. Hartford maintains records of all purchases and
redemptions of shares of the Fund. Additional protection for the assets of the
Separate Account is afforded by Hartford's blanket fidelity bond, issued by
Aetna Casualty and Surety Company, in the aggregate of $50 million, covering all
of the officers and employees of Hartford.
FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
GENERAL
SINCE THE TAX LAW IS COMPLEX AND SINCE TAX CONSEQUENCES WILL VARY ACCORDING
TO THE ACTUAL STATUS OF THE POLICY OWNER INVOLVED, LEGAL AND TAX ADVICE MAY BE
NEEDED BY A PERSON, EMPLOYER OR OTHER ENTITY CONTEMPLATING THE PURCHASE OF A
POLICY DESCRIBED HEREIN.
It should be understood that any detailed description of the federal income
tax consequences regarding the purchase of the Policies cannot be made in this
Prospectus and that special tax rules may be applicable with respect to certain
purchase situations not discussed herein. In addition, no attempt is made here
to consider any applicable state or other tax laws. For detailed information, a
qualified tax adviser should always be consulted. This discussion of federal tax
considerations is based upon Hartford 's understanding of existing federal
income tax laws as they are currently interpreted.
TAXATION OF HARTFORD AND
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Separate Account is taxed as a part of Hartford which is taxed as a life
insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"). Accordingly, the Separate Account will not be taxed as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Investment income
and realized capital gains on the assets of the Separate Account (the underlying
Funds) are reinvested and are taken into account in determining the value of the
Accumulation Units (see "Policy Benefits and Right -- Account Value," page 14).
As a result, such investment income and realized capital gains are automatically
applied to increase reserves under the Policy.
Hartford does not expect to incur any federal income tax on the earnings or
realized capital gains attributable to the Separate Account. Based upon this
expectation, no charge is currently being made to the Separate Account for
federal income taxes. If Hartford incurs income taxes attributable to the
Separate Account or determines that such taxes will be incurred, it may assess a
charge for such taxes against the Separate Account.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INCOME TAXATION OF POLICY BENEFITS
For federal income tax purposes, the Policies should be treated as life
insurance Policies under Section 7702 of the Code. The death benefit under a
life insurance Policy is generally excluded from the gross income of the
beneficiary. Also, a life insurance Policy owner is generally not taxed on
increments in the Policy value until the Policy is partially or completely
surrendered. Section 7702 limits the amount of premiums that may be invested in
a Policy that is treated as life insurance. Hartford intends to monitor premium
levels to assure compliance with the Section 7702 requirements. During the first
15 Policy Years, an "income first" rule generally applies to distributions of
cash required to be made under Code Section 7702 because of a reduction in
benefits under the Policy.
The Maturity Date Extension Rider allows a Policy Owner to extend the
Maturity Date to the date of the Insured's death. If the Maturity Date of the
Policy is extended by rider, Hartford believes that the Policy will continue to
be treated as a life insurance Policy for federal income tax purposes after the
scheduled Maturity Date. However, due to the lack of specific guidance on this
issue, the result is not certain. If the Policy is not treated as a life
insurance Policy for federal income tax purposes after the scheduled Maturity
Date, among other things, the Death Proceeds may be taxable to the recipient.
The Policy Owner should consult a qualified tax adviser regarding the possible
adverse tax consequences resulting from an extension of the scheduled Maturity
Date.
LAST SURVIVOR POLICIES
Although Hartford believes that the last survivor Policies are in compliance
with Section 7702 of the Code, the manner in which Section 7702 should be
applied to certain features of a joint survivorship life insurance Policy is not
directly addressed by Section 7702. In the absence of final regulations or other
guidance issued under Section 7702, there is necessarily some uncertainty
whether a last survivor Policy will meet the Section 7702 definition of a life
insurance Policy.
MODIFIED ENDOWMENT POLICIES
A life insurance Policy is treated as a "modified endowment Policy" under
Section 7702A of the Code if it meets the definition of life insurance in
Section 7702 but fails the "seven-pay" test of Section 7702A. The seven-pay test
provides that premiums cannot be paid at a rate more rapidly than that allowed
by the payment of seven annual premiums using specified computational rules
provided in Section 7702A(c). The large single premium permitted under the
Policy does not meet the specified computational rules for the "seven-pay test"
under Section 7702A(c). Therefore, the Policy will generally be treated as a
modified endowment Policy for federal income tax purposes. However, an exchange
under Section 1035 of the Code of a life insurance Policy issued before June 21,
1988 will not cause the new Policy to be treated as a modified endowment Policy
if no additional premiums are paid.
A Policy that is classified as a modified endowment Policy is generally
eligible for the beneficial tax treatment accorded to life insurance. That is,
the death benefit is excluded from income and increments in value are not
subject to current taxation. However, loans, distributions or other amounts
received from a modified endowment Policy during the life of the Insured will be
taxed to the extent of any accumulated income in the Policy (generally, the
excess of account value over premiums paid). Any liquidations that are taxable
will be subject to a 10% additional tax, with certain exceptions.
All modified endowment Policies that are issued within any calendar year to
the same Policy owner by one company or its affiliates shall be treated as one
modified endowment Policy in determining the taxable portion of any loan or
distributions.
ESTATE AND GENERATION SKIPPING TAXES
When the Insured dies, the Death Proceeds will generally be includible in
the Policy Owner's estate for purposes of federal estate tax if the last
surviving Insured owned the Policy. If the Policy Owner was not the last
surviving Insured, the fair market value of the Policy would be included in the
Policy Owner's estate upon the Policy Owner's death. Nothing would be includible
in the last surviving Insured's estate if he or she neither retained incidents
of ownership at death nor had given up ownership within three years before
death.
Federal estate tax is integrated with federal gift tax under a unified rate
schedule. In general, estates less than $600,000 will not incur a federal estate
tax liability. In addition, an unlimited marital deduction may be available for
federal estate and gift tax purposes. The unlimited marital deduction permits
the deferral of taxes until the death of the surviving spouse (when the Death
Proceeds would be available to pay taxes due and other expenses incurred).
If the Policy Owner (whether or not he or she is an Insured) transfers
ownership of the Policy to someone two or more generations younger, the transfer
may be subject to the generation-skipping transfer tax, the taxable amount being
the value of the Policy. The generation-skipping transfer tax provisions
generally apply to transfers which would be subject to the gift and estate tax
rules. Individuals are generally allowed an aggregate generation skipping
transfer exemption of $1 million. Because these rules are complex, the Policy
Owner should consult with a qualified tax adviser for specific information if
ownership is passing to younger generations.

HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY 25
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
Section 817 of the Code provides that a variable life insurance Policy
(other than a pension plan policy) will not be treated as a life insurance
Policy for any period during which the investments made by the separate account
or underlying fund are not adequately diversified in accordance with regulations
prescribed by the Treasury Department. If a Policy is not treated as a life
insurance Policy, the Policy Owner will be subject to income tax on the annual
increases in cash value.
The Treasury Department has issued diversification regulations which
generally require, among other things, that no more than 55% of the value of the
total assets of the segregated asset account underlying a variable Policy is
represented by any one investment, no more than 70% is represented by any two
investments, no more than 80% is represented by any three investments,and no
more than 90% is represented by any four investments. In determining whether the
diversification standards are met, all securities of the same issuer, all
interests in the same real property project, and all interests in the same
commodity are each treated as a single investment. In addition, in the case of
government securities, each government agency or instrumentality shall be
treated as a separate issuer.
A separate account must be in compliance with the diversification standards
on the last day of each calendar quarter or within 30 days after the quarter
ends. If an insurance company inadvertently fails to meet the diversification
requirements, the company may comply within a reasonable period and avoid the
taxation of policy income on an ongoing basis. However, either the company or
the Policy Owner must agree to pay the tax due for the period during which the
diversification requirements were not met.
Hartford monitors the diversification of investments in the separate
accounts and tests for diversification as required by the Code. Hartford intends
to administer all Policies, including the Policies, subject to the
diversification requirements in a manner that will maintain adequate
diversification.
OWNERSHIP OF THE ASSETS IN
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
In order for a variable life insurance Policy to qualify for tax deferral,
assets in the segregated asset accounts supporting the variable Policy must be
considered to be owned by the insurance company and not by the variable Policy
owner. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has issued several rulings which
discuss investor control. The IRS has ruled that incidents of ownership by the
Policy owner, such as the ability to select and control investments in a
separate account, will cause the Policy owner to be treated as the owner of the
assets for tax purposes.
Further, in the explanation to the temporary Section 817 diversification
regulations, the Treasury Department noted that the temporary regulations "do
not provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which investor control of
the investments of a segregated asset account may cause the investor, rather
than the insurance company, to be treated as the owner of the assets in the
account." The explanation further indicates that "the temporary regulations
provide that in appropriate cases a segregated asset account may include
multiple sub-accounts, but do not specify the extent to which policyholders may
direct their investments to particular sub-accounts without being treated as the
owners of the underlying assets. Guidance on this and other issues will be
provided in regulations or revenue rulings under section 817(d), relating to the
definition of "variable Policy." The final regulations issued under Section 817
did not provide guidance regarding investor control, and as of the date of this
Prospectus, no other such guidance has been issued. Further, Hartford does not
know if or in what form such guidance will be issued. In addition, although
regulations are generally issued with prospective effect, it is possible that
regulations may be issued with retroactive effect. Due to the lack of specific
guidance regarding the issue of investor control, there is necessarily some
uncertainty regarding whether a Policy Owner could be considered the owner of
the assets for tax purposes. Hartford reserves the right to modify the Policies,
as necessary, to prevent Policy Owners from being considered the owners of the
assets in the Separate Account.
LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASED FOR USE IN
SPLIT DOLLAR ARRANGEMENTS
On January 26, 1996, the IRS released a technical advice memorandum ("TAM")
on the taxability of life insurance policies used in certain split dollar
arrangements. A TAM, issued by the National Office of the IRS, provides advice
as to the internal revenue laws, regulations, and related statutes with respect
to a specific set of facts and a specific taxpayer. In the TAM, among other
things, the IRS concluded that an employee was subject to current taxation on
the excess of the cash surrender value of the policy over the premiums to be
returned to the employer. Purchasers of life insurance policies to be used in
split dollar arrangements are strongly advised to consult with a qualified tax
adviser to determine the tax treatment resulting from such an arrangement.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING
If any amounts are deemed to be current taxable income to the Policy Owner,
such amounts will be subject to federal income tax withholding and reporting,
pursuant to the Code.

NON-INDIVIDUAL OWNERSHIP OF POLICIES
Legislation has recently been proposed which would limit certain of the tax
advantages now afforded non-individual owners of life insurance Policies.
Prospective Policy Owners which are not individuals should consult a tax adviser
to determine the status of this proposed legislation and its potential impact on
the purchaser.
OTHER
Federal estate tax, state and local estate, inheritance and other tax
consequences of ownership, or receipt of Policy proceeds depend on the
circumstances of each Policy Owner or beneficiary. A tax adviser should be
consulted to determine the impact of these taxes.
LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASES BY NONRESIDENT
ALIENS AND FOREIGN CORPORATIONS
The discussion above provides general information regarding U.S. federal
income tax consequences to life insurance purchasers that are U.S. citizens or
residents. Purchasers that are not U.S. citizens or residents will generally be
subject to U.S. Federal income tax and withholding on taxable distributions from
life insurance policies at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. In
addition, purchasers may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes
that may be imposed by the purchaser's country of citizenship or residence.
Prospective purchasers are advised to consult with a qualified tax adviser
regarding U.S., state, and foreign taxation with respect to a life insurance
policy purchase.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no material legal proceedings pending to which the Separate
Account is a party.
LEGAL MATTERS

APPENDIX A
SPECIAL INFORMATION FOR POLICIES
PURCHASED IN NEW YORK
If the Policy 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 Policy. In the case of a Policy Owner who purchases the
Policy in the State of New York (the "New York Policy 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 Policy.
The following definition is added:
FIXED ACCOUNT: Part of the General Account of Hartford to which a New York
Policy 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 Policy 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 27, New York Policy 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 Policy 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 Charge," page 12:
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 13:
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 "Policy Benefits," page 14:
TRANSFER OF ENTIRE ACCOUNT VALUE
TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT
New York Policy 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 following a Policy
Anniversary, or (iii) within 60 days following the effective date of a material
change in the investment policy of the
<PAGE>
28 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Separate Account which the New York Policy 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 Policy 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 Policy operates. They
show how the death benefit and surrender value could vary over an extended
period of time assuming hypothetical gross rates of return equal to constant
after tax annual rates of 0%, 6% and 12%. The tables are based on an initial
premium of $10,000. A male age 45, a female age 55 and a male age 65 with Face
Amounts of $44,053, $34,014 and $20,000, respectively, are illustrated for the
single life preferred Policy for both Policy Owner Option 1 and Policy Owner
Option 2. The illustrations for the last survivor preferred Policy assume male
and female of equal ages, including age 55 and 65 for Face Amounts of $45,454
and $28,329.
The death benefit and surrender value for a Policy would be different from
those shown if the rates of return averaged 0%, 6% and 12% over a period of
years, but also fluctuated above or below those averages for individual Policy
Years. They would also differ if any Policy loan were made during the period of
time illustrated.
The tables reflect the deductions of current Policy charges for Policy Owner
Option 1 and Policy Owner Option 2 and guaranteed Policy charges for a single
gross interest rate. The death benefits and surrender values would change if the
current cost of insurance charges change.
The amounts shown for the death benefit and surrender value as of the end of
each Policy Year take into account an average daily charge equal to an annual
charge of 0.60% of the average daily net assets of the Funds for investment
advisory and administrative services fees. The gross annual investment return
rates of 0%, 6% and 12% on the Fund's assets are equal to net annual investment
return rates (net of the 0.60% average daily charge) of -0.60%, 5.40% and
11.40%, respectively.
The hypothetical returns shown in the tables are without any tax charges
that may be attributable to the Separate Account in the future. In order to
produce after tax returns of 0%, 6%, and 12%, the Separate Account would have to
earn a sufficient amount in excess of 0% or 6% or 12% to cover any tax charges
(see "Deductions and Charges -- Taxes Charged Against the Separate Account,"
page 14).
The "Premium Paid Plus Interest" column of each table shows the amount which
would accumulate if the initial premium was invested to earn interest, after
taxes of 5% per year, compounded annually.
Hartford will furnish upon request, a comparable illustration reflecting the
proposed insureds age, risk classification, Face Amount or initial premium
requested, and reflecting guaranteed cost of insurance rates. Hartford will also
furnish an additional similar illustration reflecting current cost of insurance
rates which may be less than, but never greater than, the guaranteed cost of
insurance rates.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Hartford Life Insurance Company and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of normal
recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results
of operations and the cash flows for the periods presented. Certain
reclassifications of prior year results were made to conform to current
presentation. Interim results are not indicative of the results which may be
expected for any other interim period or the full year. Certain statements
contained in this discussion, other than statements of historical fact, are
forward-looking statements. These statements are made pursuant to the safe
harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The
forward-looking statements are made based upon management's expectations and
beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on the
Company. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in
accordance with management's expectations or that the effect of these future
developments on the Company will be those anticipated by management. Actual
results could differ materially from those expected by the Company, depending on
the outcome of certain factors, including those described with the
forward-looking statements. For a description of accounting policies, see Note 1
to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1996 Form 10-K. The Company is an
indirect subsidiary of Hartford Life, Inc. ("HLI"). Accordingly, the financial
statements presented below are a partial disclosure of HLI's financial

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

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

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

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

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

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

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To 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.

72 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996
(IN MILLIONS)
1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
These consolidated financial statements include Hartford Life Insurance
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"), ITT Hartford Life and
Annuity Insurance Company ("ILA") and ITT Hartford International Life
Reassurance Corporation ("HLRe"), formerly American Skandia Life Reinsurance
Corporation. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hartford Life and
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.
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.
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES 73
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 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
<PAGE>
74 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
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
<PAGE>
HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES 75
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
Postretirement health care and life insurance benefits
<PAGE>

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 83
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 Hartford relating to the
ITT Spin-off and will indemnify The
<PAGE>
84 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.

REPRESENTATION OF REASONABLENESS OF FEES
Hartford Life Insurance Company ("Hartford") hereby represents that the
aggregate fees and charges under the Policy are reasonable in relation to the
services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and the risks
assumed by Hartford.
UNDERTAKING TO FILE REPORTS
Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic
information, documents, and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or
regulation of the Commission heretofore or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to
authority conferred in that section.
UNDERTAKINGS AND REPRESENTATIONS AS REQUIRED BY RULE 6E-3(T)
1. Separate Account Five meets the definition of "Separate Account" under Rule
6e-3(T).
2. Hartford undertakes to keep and make available to the Commission upon
request any documents used to support any representation as to the
reasonableness of fees.
UNDERTAKING ON INDEMNIFICATION
Under Section 33-772 of the Connecticut General Statutes, unless limited by
its certificate of incorporation, the Registrant must indemnify a director
who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any
proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a director of the
corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with
the proceeding.
The Registrant may indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding
because he is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding
if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any
criminal proceeding, had no reason to believe his conduct was unlawful. Conn.
Gen. Stat. Section 33-771(a). Additionally, pursuant to Conn. Gen. Stat.
Section 33-776, the Registrant may indemnify officers and employees or agents
for liability incurred and for any expenses to which they become subject by
reason of being or having been an employee or officer of the Registrant.
Connecticut law does not prescribe standards for the indemnification of
officers, employees and agents and expressly states that their
indemnification may be broader than the right of indemnification granted to
directors.
The foregoing statements are specifically made subject to the detailed
provisions of Section 33-770 et seq.
Notwithstanding the fact that Connecticut law obligates the Registrant to
indemnify only a director that was successful on the merits in a suit, under
Article III, Section 1 of the Registrant's bylaws, the Registrant must
indemnify both directors and officers of the Registrant for (1) any claims
and liabilities to which they become subject by reason of being or having
been a director or officer of the company and legal and (2) other expenses
incurred in defending against such claims, in each case, to the extent such
is consistent with statutory provisions.
Additionally, the directors and officers of Hartford and Hartford Securities
Distribution Company, Inc. ("HSD") are covered under a directors and officers
liability insurance policy issued to The Hartford Financial Services Group,
Inc. and its subsidiaries. Such policy will reimburse the Registrant for any
payments that it shall make to directors and officers pursuant to law and
will, subject to certain exclusions contained in the policy, further pay any
other costs, charges and expenses and settlements and judgments arising from
any proceeding involving any director or officer of the Registrant in his
past or present capacity as such, and for which he may be liable, except as
to any liabilities arising from acts that are deemed to be uninsurable.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

"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.
