                        COMPANION LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

 This Prospectus describes the Ultrannuity Series V Variable Annuity Policy (the
"Policy"),  a Flexible  Payment  Variable  Deferred Annuity offered by Companion
Life  Insurance  Company.  The Policy is designed to aid in long-term  financial
planning  and  provides  for the  accumulation  of capital by  individuals  on a
tax-deferred basis for retirement or other long-term purposes.

   The Owner may  allocate  Purchase  Payments to one or more of the 24 Eligible
investments, which are the 23 Subaccounts of the Companion Life Separate Account
C (the "Variable  Account") and the Fixed Account.  Assets of each Subaccount of
the Variable  Account are invested in a  corresponding  mutual fund.  The mutual
funds offered through the Policy,  while they may have the same or similar names
of retail mutual funds,  are not the same as those well known funds. By law, the
Policy may not offer those retail mutual  funds,  so it offers funds whose names
and characteristics may be similar to them but whose performance may differ from
the retail funds.  The  Portfolios are described in separate  prospectuses  that
accompany this Prospectus. The Policy's available investment options are:

Because the Accumulation  Value will increase or decrease in accordance with the
investment  experience of the selected  Subaccounts,  the Owner bears the entire
investment  risk with  respect to Purchase  Payments  allocated  to, and amounts
transferred  to, the  Variable  Account.  (See "THE  ELIGIBLE  INVESTMENTS:  The
Variable Account.")
     THE FIXED ACCOUNT.  The Fixed Account  guarantees safety of principal and a
minimum 3%  effective  annual  return on  Purchase  Payments  allocated  to, and
amounts  transferred  to,  the  Fixed  Account.   Companion  may,  in  its  sole
discretion,  declare a higher current  interest rate. A current interest rate is
guaranteed  for at least one year.  (See "THE  ELIGIBLE  INVESTMENTS:  The Fixed
Account.")

PURCHASE PAYMENTS
     A Policy  may be  purchased  with an Initial  Purchase  Payment of at least
$5,000  either  on a  non-tax  qualified  basis  ("Nonqualified  Policy")  or in
connection with retirement plans or individual  retirement accounts that qualify
for favorable federal income tax treatment  ("Qualified  Policy").  An Owner may
pay additional  Purchase Payments of at least $500 each at any time prior to the
Annuity  Starting  Date and up to the Policy  Anniversary  next  following  such
Owner's 83rd birthday. There is no deduction from Purchase Payments for sales or
administrative  expenses,  although there is a Withdrawal Charge.  (See "CHARGES
AND DEDUCTIONS: Withdrawal Charge.")
     Purchase  Payments will be allocated among the Eligible  Investments  (that
is, among the Fixed Account and/or the  Subaccounts of the Variable  Account) in
accordance with the allocation  percentages specified by the Owner in the Policy
application.  Any  allocation  must  be in  whole  percentages,  and  the  total
allocation must equal 100%. (The Policy provides for a "Free Look Period" during
which the Owner can  return the  Policy  for a full  refund of the  Accumulation
Value.)  Allocations for additional  Purchase Payments may be changed by sending
Written Notice to Companion's Service Office.

TRANSFERS
     An Owner can transfer  Accumulation  Value from one  Subaccount  to another
Subaccount or to the Fixed Account with certain limitations.  The minimum amount
which may be transferred is the lesser of $500 or the entire  Subaccount  Value.
However, following a transfer out of a particular Subaccount, at least $500 must
remain in that Subaccount.  Transfers out of the Variable Account  currently may
be made as often as the Owner  wishes by sending  Written  Notice to the Service
Office.
                                       6
<PAGE>

     There is no charge  for the first 12  transfers  during  any  Policy  Year.
However,  a charge of $10 may be imposed for any transfers  from  Subaccounts in
excess of 12 per Policy Year. No such charge will be imposed on transfers out of
the Fixed Account.
     Transfers from the Fixed Account to one or more Subaccounts of the Variable
Account may be made only once each Policy Year.  The maximum  amount that can be
transferred  out of the Fixed  Account  during any  Policy  Year is of the Fixed
Account  Value on the date of the  transfer.  (See  "THE  ELIGIBLE  INVESTMENTS:
Transfers.") Transfers from the Fixed Account may be delayed up to 6 months.

WITHDRAWALS
     The Owner may elect to surrender the Policy for its Cash  Surrender  Value,
or to withdraw a portion of the Cash Surrender  Value ($500 minimum) at any time
prior to the earlier of the Owner's death or the Annuity Starting Date and after
the Annuity  Starting Date if Payout  Option 2 is elected as a variable  annuity
payout option.  The Cash Surrender Value equals the Accumulation  Value less any
applicable  Withdrawal  Charge and any  applicable  Policy Fee. A  surrender  or
withdrawal request must be made by Written Request,  and a request for a partial
withdrawal may specify the Eligible  Investment(s)  from which the withdrawal is
to be made,  but no more than a pro-rata  amount can be deducted  from the Fixed
Account.  If the Owner does not provide specific  withdrawal  instructions,  the
withdrawal  will be made  pro-rata  from  each  Eligible  Investment.  There  is
currently no limit on the frequency or timing of  withdrawals  from the Variable
Account,  but surrenders and partial  withdrawals  from the Fixed Account may be
delayed  for up to six  months.  Withdrawals  may be  taxable,  and subject to a
Withdrawal Charge and/or a tax penalty.  (See "CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS:  Federal,
State and Local Taxes.") If the Contract is issued pursuant to a Qualified Plan,
withdrawals  may be restricted  by applicable  law or the terms of the Qualified
Plan.

CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
     WITHDRAWAL  CHARGE.  In order to  permit  maximum  investment  of  Purchase
Payments,  Companion  does not  deduct  sales or  other  charges  at the time of
investment.  However,  Purchase  Payments  surrendered or withdrawn within seven
years after they were made will be subject to a  Withdrawal  Charge to partially
cover sales expenses,  but each Policy Year up to 15% of the Accumulation  Value
may be withdrawn as of the date of the first withdrawal that Policy Year without
imposition of the Withdrawal  Charge. In addition,  amounts applied to provide a
death  benefit or applied after the second Policy Year to the Payout Option that
provides a  Lifetime  Income  (Option  4) will not be  subject  to a  Withdrawal
Charge.  The applicable  Withdrawal  Charge is calculated  separately as to each
Purchase  Payment based on the period of time elapsed since the Purchase Payment
was made. There will be no Charge imposed on any Purchase Payments in connection
with a  withdrawal  or  surrender  that  occurs  more than seven years after the
Purchase  Payment was made. The Withdrawal  Charge is 7% of any Purchase Payment
withdrawn within one year after the Purchase Payment is made, and the percentage
declines by 1% each year to zero after the seventh  year  following  the date of
the Purchase  Payment.  For purposes of calculating the Withdrawal  Charge,  the
oldest Purchase  Payment is deemed to be withdrawn first (a first-in,  first-out
arrangement),  and all Purchase  Payments are deemed to be withdrawn  before any
earnings. (See "CHARGES AND WITHDRAWALS: Withdrawal Charge.")
     ACCOUNT CHARGES.  Companion deducts a daily charge equal to a percentage of
the net assets in the  Variable  Account for the  mortality  and  expense  risks
assumed by  Companion.  The annual  rate of this charge is 1.00% of the value of
each  Subaccount's  net assets.  (See  "CHARGES AND  DEDUCTIONS:  Mortality  and
Expense Risk Charge.")
     Companion also deducts a daily  Administrative  Expense Charge from the net
assets of the Variable Account to partially cover expenses incurred by Companion
in connection with the  administration of the Variable Account and the Policies.
The annual  rate of this  charge is .20% of the value of each  Subaccount's  net
assets. (See "CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS: Administrative Charges.")
     The account  charges for  mortality  and expense  risks and  administrative
expenses are guaranteed not to increase.
     ANNUAL  POLICY  FEE.  There  is  also  an  annual  Policy  Fee  for  Policy
maintenance and related administrative expenses. This fee is $30 per year and is
deducted from the  Accumulation  Value on the last Valuation Date of each Policy
Year (and upon complete surrender of the Policy). This fee will be waived if the
Accumulation  Value is greater  than $50,000 on the last  Valuation  Date of the
applicable  Policy  Year.  This fee will not be  increased  in the future.  (See
"CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS: Administrative Charges.")
     TRANSFER FEE. No fee is imposed for transfers from the Fixed Account or for
the first 12 transfers from  Subaccounts of the Variable  Account in each Policy
Year.  However,  a $10 Transfer Fee may be imposed for the  thirteenth  and each
subsequent  request to transfer  Accumulation  Value from a Subaccount  during a
single Policy Year. This fee will not be increased in the future.
(See "CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS: Transfer Fee.")
                                       7
<PAGE>

     TAXES. No deductions are currently made for federal, state, or local income
taxes.  Should  Companion  determine  that  charges for any such taxes should be
imposed with respect to any of the Accounts,  Companion may deduct such taxes or
the economic  burden thereof from Purchase  Payments or from amounts held in the
relevant  Account.  (See  "CHARGES  AND  DEDUCTIONS:  Federal,  State  and Local
Taxes.")
     CHARGES  AGAINST  THE  SERIES  FUNDS.  The  value of the net  assets of the
Subaccounts of the Variable Account will reflect the investment advisory fee and
other expenses incurred by the Portfolios of the Series Funds. (See "CHARGES AND
DEDUCTIONS: Other Expenses Including Investment Advisory Fees.")
     EXPENSE DATA.  The charges and  deductions  are summarized in the following
table.  The purpose of this table is to help the Owner  understand the costs and
expenses  that the Owner will bear directly and  indirectly.  This table and the
examples that follow should be considered only in conjunction  with the detailed
descriptions under the heading "Charges and Deductions" of this prospectus. This
tabular  information  regarding  expenses  assumes that the entire  Accumulation
Value is in the Variable  Account and reflects  expenses of the Variable Account
as well as of the Portfolios.

1/Each Policy Year up to fifteen percent (15%) of the  Accumulation  Value as of
the date of the first withdrawal that year can be withdrawn without a Withdrawal
Charge.  Thereafter,  the  Withdrawal  Charge is calculated  separately for each

Purchase  Payment was made; it is 7% in the first year after a Purchase  Payment
is made and then decreases by 1% in each successive year to 0% after the seventh
year.

The assumed 5% annual  return is  hypothetical  and should not be  considered  a
representation  or indication of past or future expenses (in either the Variable
or Fixed  Account),  which could be greater or lesser  than the 5% rate  assumed
solely for purposes of these examples.


    3/ The $30 annual  Policy Fee is  reflected as a daily 0.10% charge in these
     Examples, based on an average Accumulation Value of $30,000.

DEATH BENEFIT
   In the event that any Owner dies prior to the Annuity  Starting Date (and the
Policy is in force),  the death benefit payable to the Beneficiary is calculated
and is payable upon  Companion's  receipt of Due Proof of Death of any Owner, as
well as an election of the method of  settlement.  If any Owner dies,  the death
benefit will equal the greater of (a) the Accumulation  Value (without deduction
of the  Withdrawal  Charge) on the later of the date on which Due Proof of Death
or an election of Payout Option is received by Companion's  Service  Office;  or
(b) the sum of Purchase Payments less partial withdrawals.  No Withdrawal Charge
is imposed upon amounts paid as a death benefit.  Subject to any  limitations of
state or federal  law,  the death  benefit may be paid as either a lump sum cash
benefit or as an Annuity. (See "DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER THE POLICY: Death Benefit.")

FREE LOOK RIGHT
   The Policy Owner may,  within 10 days after  receipt,  examine the Policy and
return it to Companion's  Service Office or the agent from whom it was purchased
for a refund. Return of the Policy is effective upon being postmarked,  properly
addressed, and postage pre-paid.  Companion will pay the refund within seven (7)
days after it receives written notice of cancellation and the returned Policy.
   Companion will promptly refund the Accumulation  Value calculated on the date
Companion  receives  the Policy and refund  request.  This amount may be more or
less than the Purchase Payments made.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF INVESTMENT IN THE POLICY
   With respect to Owners who are natural  persons under existing tax law, there
should be no federal income tax on increases (if any) in the Accumulation  Value
until a  distribution  under the Policy  occurs  (e.g.,  a withdrawal or Annuity
Payment)  or is deemed to occur  (e.g.,  a pledge or  assignment  of a  Policy).
Generally,  a portion of any distribution or deemed distribution will be taxable
as ordinary income. The taxable portion of certain distributions will be subject
to  withholding  unless  the  recipient  (if  permitted)  elects  otherwise.  In
addition,  a penalty  tax of 10% of the  amount  withdrawn  may apply to certain
distributions or deemed distributions under the Policy made prior to the Owner's
attaining age 59 1/2. (See "CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES.")

INQUIRIES AND WRITTEN NOTICES AND REQUESTS
   Any  questions  about  procedures  or the Policy,  or any  Written  Notice or
Written Request required to be sent to Companion,  should be sent to Companion's
Service  Office:  Companion  Variable  Product  Service,  P.O. Box 3664,  Omaha,
Nebraska  68103-0664.  Telephone  requests and  inquiries may be made by calling
1-800-494-0067.  All inquiries,  Notices and Requests  should include the Policy
number, the Owner's name and the Annuitant's name.

                        COMPANION LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY

   Companion Life Insurance  Company,  401 Theodore Fremd Avenue,  Rye, New York
10580, is a stock life insurance company.  It was incorporated under the laws of
the State of New York on June 3, 1949. It is principally  engaged in the sale of
life insurance and annuity policies in the State of New York. As of December 31,
1997,  Companion had assets of over $ 465 million.  Companion is a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of United of Omaha Life Insurance Company.  Both Companion and United
of Omaha are Mutual of Omaha Companies.
   Companion may from time to time publish (in advertisements,  sales literature
and reports to Owners) the ratings and other  information  assigned to it by one
or more independent rating  organizations such as A.M. Best Company,  and Duff &
Phelps.  The purpose of the ratings is to reflect the financial  strength and/or
claims-paying ability of Companion,  and the ratings should not be considered as
bearing on the investment  performance  of assets held in the Variable  Account.
Each year the A.M.  Best Company  reviews the  financial  status of thousands of
insurers, culminating in the assignment of Best's Ratings. These ratings reflect
A.M.  Best  Company's  current  opinion of the relative  financial  strength and
operating  performance of an insurance company in comparison to the norms of the
life/health  insurance  industry.  In  addition,  the  claims-paying  ability of
Companion,   as   measured  by  Duff  &  Phelps  may  be  referred  to  in  such
  
                                     13
<PAGE>

advertisements,  sales  literature,  or  reports.  These  ratings  are  opinions
regarding  an  operating  insurance  company's  financial  capacity  to meet the
obligations  of its  insurance  and annuity  policies in  accordance  with their
terms.  Such ratings do not reflect the  investment  performance of the Variable
Account or the degree of risk  associated  with an  investment  in the  Variable
Account.


                            THE ELIGIBLE INVESTMENTS

   Purchase  Payments  made  under a Policy  may be  allocated  to one of the 23
Subaccounts of the Variable Account,  to the Fixed Account,  or to a combination
of these Eligible Investment(s).

THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT
   The Companion Life Separate  Account C of Companion  Life  Insurance  Company
(the "Variable  Account") was established as a separate investment account under
the laws of the State of New York on February  18, 1994.  The  Variable  Account
will  receive  and invest the  Purchase  Payments  under the  Policies  that are
allocated to it for investment in shares of a Series Fund.
   The  Variable  Account  currently  is  divided  into  23  Subaccounts.   Each
Subaccount  invests  exclusively  in shares of a Portfolio  of one of the Series
Funds.  Under New York law,  the  assets of the  Variable  Account  are owned by
Companion,  but they are held  separately from the other assets of Companion and
are not  chargeable  with any  liabilities  arising  out of any  other  separate
investment  account or any other business of Companion which has no specific and
determinable  relation to or dependence upon the Variable  Account.  The income,
gains and losses, realized or unrealized,  from assets allocated to the Variable
Account are credited to or charged against the Variable Account,  without regard
to other income,  gains, or losses of Companion.  The investment  performance of
any Subaccount should be entirely  independent of the investment  performance of
Companion's   general  account  assets  or  any  other  accounts  maintained  by
Companion.
   The  Variable   Account  is  registered  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  (the  "SEC")  under  the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940 as a unit
investment  trust.  However,  the SEC does not supervise  the  management or the
investment practices or policies of the Variable Account or Companion.
   THE SERIES  FUNDS.  Each  Subaccount  of the  Variable  Account  will  invest
exclusively in shares of a specific  Portfolio of one of the Series Funds,  each
of which is a mutual fund registered  with the SEC under the Investment  Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as an open-end,  diversified  investment management
company.  4/ The assets of each  Portfolio of each Series Fund are held separate
from the assets of that Series Fund's other  Portfolios,  and each Portfolio has
its own distinct investment objectives and policies.  Each Portfolio operates as
a separate  investment fund, and the income or losses of one Portfolio generally
have no effect on the investment performance of any other Portfolio.
   Each of the Series Funds is managed by an investment  adviser registered with
the SEC under the Investment  Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.  Each investment
manager is responsible for selecting Portfolio  investments  consistent with the
investment  objectives  and policies of the Portfolio,  and conducts  securities
trading for the  Portfolio.  Alger  Management  is  responsible  for the overall
administration  of the Alger  American Fund,  subject to the  supervision of the
Alger  Fund  Board  of  Trustees;  Federated  Advisers  is  responsible  for the
portfolio investment  decisions of the Insurance  Management Series,  subject to
direction by the Insurance  Management  Series Trustees;  Fidelity  Management &
Research  Company  ("FMR") is the manager of the  Fidelity VIP Fund and Fidelity
VIP Fund II. On behalf of the Asset  Manager:  Growth  Portfolio of the Fidelity
VIP  Fund  II,  FMR has  entered  into  sub-advisory  agreements  with  Fidelity
Investment  Management  and  Research  (U.K.) Inc.  ("FMR  (U.K.)") and Fidelity
Management and Research (Far East) Inc. ("FMR Far East") pursuant to which those
entities  provide  research  and  investment  recommendations  with  respect  to
companies based outside of the United States.  FMR (U.K.)  primarily  focuses on
companies based in Europe, and FMR Far East focuses primarily on companies based
in Asia and the  Pacific  Basin.  Massachusetts  Financial  Services  Company is
responsible  for the  management  of the  assets of the MFS  Variable  Insurance
Trust. Pioneer Fund Group is responsible for the management of the assets of the
Pioneer  Variable  Contracts  Trust,  subject to  direction  by the  Trust's own
Trustees.  The investment  advisor for each Pioneer  Variable  Contract's  Trust
portfolio is Pioneer Management  Corporation.  Scudder Kemper Investments,  Inc.
manages the daily business and affairs of the Scudder Fund,  subject to policies
established by the Trustees of Scudder  Variable Life  Investment  Fund. T. Rowe
Price  Associates,  Inc. is  responsible  for  selection  and  management of the
portfolio  investments  of T. Rowe Price  Equity  Series and T. Rowe Price Fixed
Income Series. Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc., incorporated in 1979 as a
joint venture between T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. and Robert Fleming Holdings
Limited,   is  responsible   for  selection  and  management  of  the  portfolio
investments of T. Rowe Price International Series.


     4/ The registration of the Series Funds does not involve supervision of the
     management or  investment  practices or policies of the Series Funds by the
     SEC.

   The  Variable  Account  Portfolios,  while  they may have the same or similar
names of retail mutual funds, are not the same as those funds. By law, insurance
product  variable  account  portfolios  and retail mutual funds must be separate
investment pools. A variable account portfolio and a retail mutual fund may have
similar names, the same or similar  investment  objective and strategy,  and the
same  investment  manager.  Even when these  similarities  exist,  however,  the
investment  manager is under no obligation  to ensure that the Variable  Account
Portfolio and the retail mutual fund have duplicate  holdings,  trading activity
or  performance.  Any  similarities  in this  regard are  coincidental,  and the
Variable  Account  Portfolio and retail mutual fund may differ  substantially in
these areas.  The investment  manager's  obligation is to attempt to achieve the
investment  objective  stated  in the  prospectus.  For  information  about  the
performance  history of any Variable Account Portfolio,  please refer to further
disclosure  in  this  Prospectus  or in the  Series  Fund  prospectus  for  that
particular Variable Account Portfolio.
   The investment objectives of each Portfolio are summarized as follows:

ALGER AMERICAN FUND

   ALGER AMERICAN GROWTH  PORTFOLIO -- seeks long-term  capital  appreciation by
     investing in a  diversified  portfolio of equity  securities,  primarily of
     companies with total market capitalization of $1 billion or greater.

   ALGER AMERICAN  SMALL  CAPITALIZATION  PORTFOLIO -- seeks  long-term  capital
     appreciation by investing in a diversified  portfolio of equity securities,
     primarily of smaller,  newer companies with total market  capitalization of
     less than $1 billion.  The  securities  in such  companies may have limited
     marketability and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements
     than  securities  of  larger,  more  established  companies  or the  market
     averages in general.(*)

INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SERIES

   FEDERATED   PRIME  MONEY  FUND  II  PORTFOLIO  --  invests  in  money  market
     instruments  maturing in thirteen  months or less to achieve current income
     consistent  with  stability  of  principal  and  liquidity.  The  Portfolio
     attempts to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share, but there
     can be no assurance the Portfolio will be able to do so.

   FEDERATED FUND FOR U.S.  GOVERNMENT  SECURITIES II PORTFOLIO -- seeks current
     income by investing in a diversified  portfolio limited to U.S.  government
     securities.

FIDELITY VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND
   FIDELITY VIP EQUITY-INCOME  PORTFOLIO -- seeks reasonable income by investing
     mainly in income-producing equity securities. In selecting investments, the
     Portfolio  also  considers  the  potential  for capital  appreciation.  The
     Portfolio  seeks to achieve a yield  that  beats  that of the S&P 500.  The
     Portfolio does not expect to invest in debt securities of companies that do
     not have proven earnings or credit.(*)

FIDELITY VARIABLE INSURANCE PRODUCTS FUND II

   FIDELITY VIP II ASSET MANAGER: GROWTH PORTFOLIO -- seeks to obtain high total
     return with reduced risk over the long-term by allocating  its assets among
     stocks,  bonds,  and  short-term  fixed-income  instruments.  Although  the
     Portfolio seeks to reduce its overall risk by diversifying  among different
     types of investments,  the fund  aggressively  invests in a wide variety of
     security types,  including stocks and bonds issued in developing  countries
     and  derivative  transactions.  The Portfolio  spreads  investment  risk by
     limiting its holdings in any one company or industry.(*)

   FIDELITY  CONTRAFUND  PORTFOLIO  --  seeks  to  increase  the  value  of  the
     Portfolio's  return  over the  long  term by  investing  in  securities  of
     companies that are undervalued or  out-of-favor.  This strategy can lead to
     investments in domestic or foreign companies, many of which may not be well
     known.  The stocks of small companies often involve more risk than those of
     larger companies.  The Portfolio may use various  investment  techniques to
     hedge the Portfolio's risk, but there is no guarantee that these strategies
     will work as intended.(*)

   FIDELITY  INDEX 500  PORTFOLIO  -- seeks to match the total return of the S&P
     500 while  keeping  expenses  low.  The  Portfolio  utilizes a "passive" or
     "indexing"  approach and tries to allocate its assets similarly to those of
     the index.  Normally  80% (65% if fund assets are below $20 million) of the
     fund's assets are invested in equity  securities of companies  that compose
     the S&P 500. The Standard & Poor's  Corporation is neither an affiliate nor
     a sponsor of the fund.

MFS VARIABLE INSURANCE TRUST

   MFS EMERGING GROWTH PORTFOLIO -- seeks to provide long-term growth of capital
     through investing  primarily in common stocks of emerging growth companies,
     which involves greater risk than is customarily associated with investments
     in more established companies. The Portfolio may invest in a limited extent
     in lower rated fixed income securities or comparable unrated securities.(*)

   MFS HIGH INCOME PORTFOLIO -- seeks high current income by investing primarily
     in a diversified  portfolio of fixed income  securities,  some of which may
     involve  equity  features.  The  Portfolio  may invest in lower rated fixed
     income securities or comparable unrated securities.(*)

   MFS RESEARCH  PORTFOLIO -- seeks to provide  long-term  growth of capital and
     future  income by investing a  substantial  proportion of its assets in the
     common  stocks or  securities  convertible  into common stocks of companies
     believed to possess better than average  prospects for long-term growth. No
     more  than 5% of the  Portfolio's  convertible  securities,  if  any,  will
     consist of securities in lower rated  categories or securities  believed to
     be of similar quality to lower rated  securities.  The Portfolio may invest
     in a limited  extent in lower rated fixed income  securities  or comparable
     unrated securities.(*)

   MFS VALUE  SERIES  PORTFOLIO  --  seeks  capital  appreciation  by  investing
     primarily  in  common  stocks,   including  to  a  limited  extent  foreign
     securities  which are not  traded on a U.S.  exchange.  The  Portfolio  may
     invest to a limited  extent  in lower  rated  fixed  income  securities  or
     comparable unrated securities. (*)

   MFS WORLD GOVERNMENT  PORTFOLIO -- seeks  preservation and growth of capital,
     together  with  moderate  current  income  by  investing  its  assets in an
     internationally   diversified   portfolio   consisting  primarily  of  debt
     securities  and  to  a  lesser  extent  equity  securities.  The  Portfolio
     investments  are expected to consist  primarily of securities  which are of
     relatively  high  quality and minimal  credit  risk.  However,  an error of
     judgment in  selecting a currency or an  interest  rate  environment  could
     result in a loss of capital, and a held security whose quality deteriorates
     significantly  will  be  sold  only  if the  Portfolio  investment  adviser
     believes it is advantageous to do so.

PIONEER VARIABLE CONTRACTS TRUST

     a  diversified  portfolio  of  securities  consisting  primarily  of common
     stocks.

SCUDDER VARIABLE LIFE INVESTMENT FUND

   SCUDDER   GLOBAL   DISCOVERY   PORTFOLIO  --  seeks   above-average   capital
     appreciation  over the  long  term by  investing  primarily  in the  equity
     securities of small companies located throughout the world,  including to a
     limited extent in lower rated fixed income securities or comparable unrated
     securities.  Since the  Portfolio  normally  will  invest in both U.S.  and
     foreign securities markets,  changes in the Portfolio's unit value may have
     a low correlation with movements in the U.S. markets. (*)

   SCUDDER  GROWTH & INCOME  PORTFOLIO  -- seeks  long term  growth of  capital,
     current  income  and  growth  of income by  investing  primarily  in common
     stocks,  preferred stocks, and securities convertible into common stocks of
     companies  which offer the  prospect  for growth of earnings  while  paying
     higher than average current dividends.

   SCUDDER  INTERNATIONAL   PORTFOLIO  --  seeks  long-term  growth  of  capital
     primarily  through  diversified   holdings  of  marketable  foreign  equity
     investments. The Portfolio invests in companies,  wherever organized, which
     do business  primarily outside the United States.  The Portfolio intends to
     diversify  investments  among  several  countries,  and does not  intend to
     concentrate investments in any particular industry.

     assets  from  long-term   growth  of  capital  and  income,   by  investing
     substantially  all of its assets in common stocks of  established  non-U.S.
     companies.  The Portfolio  will not purchase any debt security which at the
     time of purchase is rated below  investment  grade.  This would not prevent
     the Portfolio  from  retaining a security  downgraded  to below  investment
     grade after purchase.

T. ROWE PRICE EQUITY SERIES, INC.

   T.ROWE  PRICE NEW  AMERICA  GROWTH  PORTFOLIO  -- seeks  long-term  growth of
     capital  through  investments  primarily  in common  stocks of U.S.  growth

     appreciation or depreciation.

   T.ROWE  PRICE  EQUITY-INCOME   PORTFOLIO  --  Seeks  to  provide  substantial
     dividend  income and also capital  appreciation  by investing  primarily in
     dividend-paying common stocks of established companies.(*)

     return over time consistent  with an emphasis on both capital  appreciation
     and income.  There are no limitations on market  capitalization or types of

     grade bonds.(*)

   T.ROWE  PRICE  LIMITED-TERM  BOND  PORTFOLIO  -- seeks a high level of income
     consistent  with  modest  price  fluctuation  by  investing   primarily  in

(*)  THE PORTFOLIOS' INVESTMENT STRATEGIES MAY PROVIDE THE OPPORTUNITY OF HIGHER
     THAN AVERAGE  YIELDS BY INVESTING  IN  SECURITIES  WITH HIGHER THAN AVERAGE
     RISK,  SUCH AS LOWER AND UNRATED DEBT AND  COMPARABLE  EQUITY  INSTRUMENTS.
     PLEASE CONSULT EACH PORTFOLIO'S  SERIES FUND PROSPECTUS  ACCOMPANYING  THIS
     PROSPECTUS  FOR MORE  INFORMATION  ABOUT  THE  RISK  ASSOCIATED  WITH  SUCH
     INVESTMENTS.

   THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT ANY PORTFOLIO  WILL ACHIEVE ITS STATED  OBJECTIVE.
MORE  DETAILED   INFORMATION,   INCLUDING  A  DESCRIPTION  OF  EACH  PORTFOLIO'S
INVESTMENT  OBJECTIVE  AND  POLICIES  AND A  DESCRIPTION  OF RISKS  INVOLVED  IN
INVESTING IN EACH OF THE PORTFOLIOS AND OF EACH  PORTFOLIO'S  FEES AND EXPENSES,
IS CONTAINED IN THE PROSPECTUSES  FOR THE SERIES FUNDS,  CURRENT COPIES OF WHICH
ACCOMPANY  THIS   PROSPECTUS.   INFORMATION   CONTAINED  IN  THE  SERIES  FUNDS'
PROSPECTUSES  SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY  BEFORE  INVESTING IN A SUBACCOUNT OF THE
VARIABLE ACCOUNT.

   An investment in the Variable  Account,  or in any  Portfolio,  including the
Money Market Portfolio,  is not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. Government and
there  can be no  assurance  that the  Money  Market  Portfolio  will be able to
maintain a stable net asset value per share.

   Companion   may  receive   compensation   from  certain   Portfolios   and/or
affiliate(s)  of certain of the  Portfolios.  The  amounts  may be based upon an
annual  percentage of the average  assets held in that Portfolio by the Variable
Account.  These amounts are intended to compensate  Companion for administrative
and other services provided by Companion.

   ADDITION,  DELETION,  OR  SUBSTITUTION  OF  INVESTMENTS.  Companion  does not
control  the  Series  Funds and cannot  and does not  guarantee  that any of the
Portfolios  will always be available  for  Purchase  Payments,  allocations,  or
transfers.  Companion retains the right,  subject to any applicable law, to make
certain changes in the Variable Account and its investments.  Companion reserves
the right to eliminate the shares of any Portfolio  held by a Subaccount  and to
substitute  shares  of  another  Portfolio  of a  Series  Fund,  or  of  another
registered  open-end  management  investment  company  for  the  shares  of  any
Portfolio, if the shares of the Portfolio are no longer available for investment
or  if,  in  Companion's   judgment,   investment  in  any  Portfolio  would  be
inappropriate  in view of the  purposes of the Variable  Account.  To the extent
required by the 1940 Act,  substitutions  of shares  attributable  to an Owner's
interest in a Subaccount  will not be made without prior notice to the Owner and
the  prior  approval  of the SEC.  If  required,  approval  of or  change of any
investment  policy will be filed with the  Insurance  Department of any state in
which the Policy is sold.  Nothing  contained  herein shall prevent the Variable
Account from purchasing other securities for other series or classes of variable
annuity  policies,  or from  effecting an exchange  between series or classes of
variable annuity policies on the basis of requests made by Owners.
  
                                     17

   New Subaccounts may be established when, in the sole discretion of Companion,
marketing,  tax, investment or other conditions warrant. Any new Subaccounts may
be made  available to existing  Owners on a basis to be determined by Companion.
Each additional  Subaccount will purchase shares in a Portfolio of a Series Fund
or in another  mutual fund or investment  vehicle.  Companion may also eliminate
one or more Subaccounts if, in its sole discretion,  marketing,  tax, investment
or other  conditions  warrant  such  change.  In the  event  any  Subaccount  is
eliminated,  Companion  will  notify  Owners and request a  reallocation  of the
amounts  invested  in the  eliminated  Subaccount.  If no such  reallocation  is
provided by the Owner,  Companion  will  reinvest  the  amounts  invested in the
eliminated  Subaccount  in the  Subaccount  that  invests  in the  Money  Market
Portfolio (or in a similar portfolio of money market instruments).
   In  the  event  of  any  such  substitution  or  change,  Companion  may,  by
appropriate  endorsement,  make such changes in the Policies as may be necessary
or appropriate to reflect such substitution or change. Furthermore, the Variable
Account may be (i)  operated as a management  company  under the 1940 Act or any
other form permitted by law, (ii)  deregistered  under the 1940 Act in the event
such registration is no longer required or (iii) combined with one or more other
separate accounts. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Companion also may
transfer  the assets of the  Variable  Account  associated  with the Policies to
another account or accounts.

HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE DATA
      From time to time,  Companion may advertise or include in sales literature
yields,  effective yields, and total returns for the Subaccounts of the Variable
Account.  THESE FIGURES ARE BASED ON HISTORICAL  PERFORMANCE AND DO NOT INDICATE
OR PROJECT  FUTURE  PERFORMANCE.  Performance  relative  to certain  performance
rankings  and  indices  compiled  by  independent   organizations  may  also  be
advertised or included in sales literature.  More detailed information as to the
calculation of performance  information,  as well as comparisons  with unmanaged
market indices, appears in the Statement of Additional Information.
     PERFORMANCE  DATA.  Effective  yields and total returns for the Subaccounts
are based on the investment  performance of the corresponding  Portfolios of the
Series Funds.  The Series Funds'  performance in part reflects the Series Funds'
expenses. See the Prospectuses for the Series Funds.
      The yield of the Money Market  Subaccount  refers to the annualized income
generated by an investment in the Subaccount over a specified  seven-day period.
The yield is calculated by assuming that the income generated for that seven-day
period is generated each seven-day  period over a 52-week period and is shown as
a percentage of the investment. The effective yield is calculated similarly but,
when annualized, the income earned by an investment in the Subaccount is assumed
to be  reinvested.  The effective  yield will be slightly  higher than the yield
because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment.
      The yield of a Subaccount  (except the Money Market  Subaccount) refers to
the  annualized  income  generated by an  investment  in the  Subaccount  over a
specified 30-day or one-month  period.  The yield is calculated by assuming that
the income generated by the investment during that 30-day or one-month period is
generated each period over a 12-month period and is shown as a percentage of the
investment.
      Yield quotations do not reflect the Withdrawal Charge.
      The total  return of a  Subaccount  refers to return  quotations  assuming
Accumulation  Value has been held in the Subaccount for various  periods of time
including,  but not limited to, a period  measured from the date the  Subaccount
commenced operations. When a Subaccount has been in operation for one, five, and
ten years, respectively, the total return for these periods will be provided.
      The average  annual total return  quotations  represent the average annual
compounded  rates of return that would  equate an initial  investment  of $1,000
under a Policy to the redemption  value of that investment as of the last day of
each of the periods for which total  return  quotations  are  provided.  Average
annual total return information shows the average percentage change in the value
of an investment  in the  Subaccount  from the  beginning  date of the measuring
period to the end of that period.  This  standardized  version of average annual
total return reflects all historical  investment  results,  less all charges and
deductions applied against the Subaccount  (including any Withdrawal Charge that
would  apply  if an  Owner  terminated  the  Policy  at the end of  each  period
indicated).  Such average annual total return information for the subaccounts of
the Policy is as follows:

THE FIGURES ABOVE ARE NOT AN INDICATION OF PRESENT,  PAST, OR FUTURE PERFORMANCE
OF THE APPLICABLE  SUBACCOUNTS OR OF THE ACTUAL  PORTFOLIOS  AVAILABLE UNDER THE
POLICY.

   ADJUSTED HISTORICAL  PERFORMANCE DATA. Companion may, from time to time, also
disclose yield,  standard total returns,  and non-standard total returns for the
Portfolios of the Series Funds,  including such  disclosure for periods prior to
the dates the Subaccounts  commenced  operations.  For periods prior to the date
the Subaccount commenced operations,  performance  information for Policies will
be calculated  based on the  performance  of the Series Fund  Portfolios and the
assumption that the Subaccounts  were in existence for the same periods as those
indicated for the Series Fund Portfolios,  with the level of Policy charges that
are  currently  in  effect  (this  is  referred  to  as  "adjusted   historical"
performance data).


   PORTFOLIO  PERFORMANCE DATA. Companion may also disclose average annual total

      Non-standard  performance  data will  only be  disclosed  if the  standard
performance  data for the required  periods is also  disclosed.  For  additional
information regarding the calculation of other performance data, please refer to
the Statement of Additional Information.
      In advertising  and sales  literature,  the performance of each Subaccount
may be compared to the performance of other variable  annuity issuers in general
or to the  performance of particular  types of variable  annuities  investing in
mutual funds, or mutual fund portfolios  with investment  objectives  similar to
each of the Subaccounts.  Lipper Analytical  Services,  Inc.  ("Lipper") and the
Variable Annuity Research Data Service ("VARDS") are independent  services which
monitor  and rank the  performance  of variable  annuity  issuers in each of the
major categories of investment objectives on an industry-wide basis.
      Lipper's  rankings  include  variable  life  insurance  issuers as well as
variable annuity issuers.  VARDS rankings compare only variable annuity issuers.
The performance  analyses prepared by Lipper and VARDS each rank such issuers on
the basis of total return,  assuming  reinvestment of distributions,  but do not
take sales  charges,  redemption  fees,  or certain  expense  deductions  at the
separate  account level into  consideration.  In addition,  VARDS  prepares risk
adjusted  rankings,  which  consider  the effects of market risk on total return
performance.  This type of ranking  provides  data as to which funds provide the
highest total return within various categories of funds defined by the degree of
risk inherent in their investment objectives.
                                       20
<PAGE>

      Advertising and sales  literature may also compare the performance of each
Subaccount  to the Standard & Poor's Index of 500 Common  Stocks,  a widely used
measure of stock  performance.  This unmanaged index assumes the reinvestment of
dividends but does not reflect any  "deduction"  for the expense of operating or
managing an investment portfolio. Other independent ranking services and indices
may also be used as a source of performance comparison.
      Companion  may also  report  other  information  including  the  effect of
tax-deferred  compounding on a Subaccount's  investment  returns,  or returns in
general,  which may be illustrated by tables,  graphs, or charts. All income and
capital gains derived from Subaccount investments are reinvested and can lead to
substantial  long-term  accumulation  of assets,  provided  that the  underlying
portfolio's investment experience is positive.

THE FIXED ACCOUNT
   This Prospectus is generally intended to serve as a disclosure  document only
for the Policy and the Variable  Account.  For complete  details  regarding  the
Fixed Account, see the Policy itself.
   PURCHASE  PAYMENTS  ALLOCATED  AND AMOUNTS  TRANSFERRED  TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT
BECOME PART OF THE GENERAL ACCOUNT ASSETS OF COMPANION. INTERESTS IN THE GENERAL
ACCOUNT HAVE NOT BEEN  REGISTERED  UNDER THE  SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933 (THE "1933
ACT"), NOR IS THE GENERAL ACCOUNT  REGISTERED AS AN INVESTMENT COMPANY UNDER THE
1940 ACT. ACCORDINGLY, NEITHER THE GENERAL ACCOUNT NOR ANY INTERESTS THEREIN ARE
GENERALLY  SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE 1933 OR 1940 ACTS, AND COMPANION HAS
BEEN ADVISED THAT THE STAFF OF THE  SECURITIES  AND EXCHANGE  COMMISSION HAS NOT
REVIEWED THE DISCLOSURES IN THIS PROSPECTUS WHICH RELATE TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT.
   The  Fixed  Account  includes  all  the  assets  of  Companion  except  those
segregated in the Variable Account or in any other separate  investment account.
The Policy Owner may allocate Purchase Payments to the Fixed Account at the time
of a Purchase Payment or transfer amounts from the Variable Account to the Fixed
Account. Instead of the Policy Owner bearing the investment risk, as is the case
for  Accumulation  Value  in the  Variable  Account,  Companion  bears  the full
investment risk for all Accumulation  Value in the Fixed Account.  Companion has
sole discretion to invest the assets of its general account, including the Fixed
Account, subject to applicable law.
   Companion  guarantees  that it will  credit  interest to amounts in the Fixed
Account at an effective rate of at least 3% per year. Companion may, IN ITS SOLE
DISCRETION,  credit  amounts in the Fixed  Account  with  interest  at a current
interest rate in excess of 3%. Once  declared,  a current  interest rate will be
guaranteed  for at least one year.  ONE  TRANSFER  OUT OF THE FIXED  ACCOUNT  IS
ALLOWED EACH POLICY YEAR.  Moreover,  the maximum amount that can be transferred
out of the Fixed Account  during any Policy Year will be determined by Companion
in its sole discretion,  but will not be less than 10% of Fixed Account Value on
the date of the  transfer.  No charge is  imposed on such  transfers.  Companion
reserves the right to modify transfer privileges at any time. (See "THE ELIGIBLE
INVESTMENTS:Transfers.")  Partial withdrawals from the Fixed Account are limited
to a pro rata amount (with withdrawals from the Variable  Account).  Withdrawals
and transfers  from the Fixed  Account may be delayed for up to six months,  and
withdrawals may be subject to a Withdrawal Charge. (See "DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER THE
POLICY: Withdrawals.") For purposes of crediting interest, the oldest payment or
transfer  into the Fixed  Account,  plus  interest  allocable to that payment or
transfer,  is  considered  to be withdrawn or  transferred  out first;  the next
oldest payment plus interest is considered to be transferred out next, and so on
(this is a " first-in, first-out" procedure).
   Companion  guarantees  that, at any time prior to the Annuity  Starting Date,
the amount in the Fixed Account  allocable to a particular Policy will be not be
less than the amount of the Purchase  Payments  allocated or  transferred to the
Fixed  Account,  plus  interest at an  effective  rate of 3% per year,  plus any
excess  interest  credited  to amounts in the Fixed  Account,  less any  amounts
deducted  from  the  Fixed  Account  in  connection  with  partial   withdrawals
(including any Withdrawal Charges) or transfers to the Variable Account.
                                       21
<PAGE>

   The  current  interest  rates will be  determined  by  Companion  in its sole
discretion.

   COMPANION'S  MANAGEMENT  HAS COMPLETE AND SOLE  DISCRETION  TO DETERMINE  THE
CURRENT  INTEREST  RATES.  COMPANION  CANNOT  PREDICT OR GUARANTEE  THE LEVEL OF
FUTURE CURRENT  INTEREST  RATES,  EXCEPT THAT COMPANION  GUARANTEES  THAT FUTURE
CURRENT  INTEREST  RATES  WILL  NOT BE BELOW  AN  EFFECTIVE  RATE OF 3% PER YEAR
COMPOUNDED ANNUALLY. THE POLICY OWNER BEARS THE RISK THAT CURRENT INTEREST RATES
WILL NOT EXCEED AN EFFECTIVE RATE OF 3% PER YEAR.

TRANSFERS
   SUBJECT TO the limitations and restrictions described below, transfers out of
a Subaccount  of the Variable  Account may be made any time prior to the Annuity
Starting Date, by sending  Written  Notice,  signed by the Policy Owner,  to the
Service Office.  Companion reserves the right, at any time and without notice to
any party, to modify the transfer privileges under the Policy.
   An Owner can transfer  Accumulation Value from one Subaccount of the Variable
Account to another,  or from the Variable  Account to the Fixed  Account  within
certain  limits.  The minimum  amount which may be  transferred is the lesser of
$500 or the entire  Subaccount  Value. If the Subaccount Value remaining after a
transfer is less than $500,  Companion  will  include that amount as part of the
transfer.  Transfers  out of a Subaccount  currently may be made as often as the
Owner wishes,  subject to the minimum amount specified above (Companion reserves
the right to otherwise limit or restrict transfers in the future or to eliminate
the transfer privilege). Companion reserves the right to restrict transfers from
the Variable Account to the Fixed Account of amounts previously transferred from
the Fixed Account, for a period of time determined by Companion.
     A transfer  fee of $10 may be imposed for any  transfer in excess of 12 per
Policy  Year.  The transfer fee is deducted  from the amount  transferred.  (See
"CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS.")
   Transfers from the Fixed Account  currently may be made only once each Policy
Year.  Transfers from the Fixed Account do not count toward the 12 free transfer
limit described  above, and no transfer charge will be imposed on transfers from
the Fixed Account.  Moreover,  the maximum amount that can be transferred out of
the Fixed  Account  during any Policy Year is 10% of the Fixed  Account Value on
the date of the transfer.
   The Policy is designed as a long-term  investment,  for  retirement  or other
financial  planning.  The Policy is not intended  for active  trading or "market
timing."  Excessive  transfers  could  harm  other  Policy  Owners  by  having a
detrimental effect on portfolio  management (which could occur, for example,  if
it caused excessive commission expense or caused the manager to keep higher cash
reserves than otherwise).  Therefore,  Companion reserves the right to limit the
number of Transfers from the  Subaccounts of the Variable  Account and the Fixed
Account if Companion believes that: (a) excessive trading by the Policy Owner or
a specific Transfer request would have a detrimental effect on Accumulation Unit
values or the share prices of the  Portfolios;  or (b)  Companion is informed by
one or more of the Series  Funds or the  Variable  Account  that the purchase or
redemption  of shares is to be  restricted  because  of  excessive  trading or a
Transfer or group of Transfers is deemed to have a  detrimental  effect on share
prices of one or more Portfolios or the Variable Account.
   Where permitted by law,  Companion may accept a Policy Owner's  authorization
of third party  reallocation  on such  Owner's  behalf,  subject to  Companion's
rules. Companion may suspend or cancel such acceptance at any time. For example,
third party  reallocation  by "market  timers"  could be suspended if they cause
harm to other Policy Owners.  Companion will notify the Policy Owner of any such
suspension  or   cancellation.   Companion  may  restrict  the  availability  of
Subaccounts  and the Fixed Account for Transfers  during any period in which the
Policy Owner  authorizes  such third party to act on his behalf.  Companion will
give Owners prior notification of any such restrictions. However, Companion will
not enforce such restrictions if it is provided with satisfactory evidence that:
(a) such third party has been appointed by a court of competent  jurisdiction to
act on the Policy Owner's behalf;  or (b) such third party has been appointed by
the Policy Owner to act on his behalf for all his financial affairs.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING
   Under the  Dollar  Cost  Averaging  program,  the Policy  Owner can  instruct
Companion to automatically transfer, on a periodic basis, a predetermined amount
or percentage specified by the Policy Owner from any one Subaccount or the Fixed
Account to any  Subaccount(s) of the Variable Account.  The automatic  transfers
can  occur  monthly,  quarterly,  semi-annually,  or  annually,  and the  amount
transferred  each time must be at least $100 and must be $50 per Subaccount.  At
the time the program begins, there must be at least $5,000 of Accumulation Value
in the applicable  Subaccount or the Fixed  Account.  If transfers are made from
the Fixed Account, the maximum periodic transfer amount is 10% of that account's
value at the time of the  first  Dollar  Cost  Averaging  transfer.  There is no
maximum  transfer  amount  requirement  out of the  Subaccounts  of the Variable
Account.
                                       22
<PAGE>

   If a  percentage  is  specified  for Dollar  Cost  Averaging  transfers,  the
percentage is calculated on the date each transfer is processed.  This means the
amount of the transfer may vary with each transaction, and is dependent upon the
Accumulation Value of the Subaccount(s) or Fixed Account from which the transfer
is to be made.  If a  predetermined  dollar  amount is specified for Dollar Cost
Averaging  transfers,  the  amount  of the  transfer  will  not vary  with  each
transaction regardless of changes in the Accumulation Value of the Subaccount(s)
or Fixed Account from which transfers are made. The predetermined  dollar amount
may be changed by providing  Written Notice to Companion.  Dollar Cost Averaging
results in the purchase of more  Accumulation  Units when the Accumulation  Unit
value is low, and fewer units when the Accumulation Unit value is high. However,
there is no  guarantee  that the Dollar Cost  Averaging  program  will result in
higher Accumulation Value or otherwise be successful.
   The Policy  Owner can  request  participation  in the Dollar  Cost  Averaging
program when  purchasing  the Policy or at a later date.  Dollar Cost  Averaging
program  transfers  cannot begin  before the end of a Policy's  free look (a/k/a
"right to examine")  period.  Transfers will begin on the first through the 25th
day (or,  if not a  Valuation  Date,  the next  following  Valuation  Date).  as
specified by the Owner,  following the Policy's free look period.  If no date is
selected,  the Dollar  Cost  Averaging  program  will  begin on the next  Policy
monthly anniversary  following the date the Policy's free look period ends.. The
Owner can specify that only a certain number of transfers will be made, in which
case the program will  terminate  when that number of  transfers  has been made.
Otherwise,  the  program  will  terminate  when  the  amount  remaining  in  the
applicable Subaccount or, if applicable, the Fixed Account is less than $500.
   The Owner can increase or decrease the amount or  percentage of the transfers
or discontinue the program by sending Written Notice to the Service Office or by
telephone,  if telephone  transactions  are  authorized.  There is no charge for
participation in this program.

ASSET ALLOCATION PROGRAM
   Under the Asset Allocation  Program,  the Policy Owner can instruct Companion
to allocate  purchase  payments and Accumulation  Value among the Subaccounts of
the  Variable  Account  and the Fixed  Account  in  accordance  with  allocation
instructions  specified by the Policy Owner.  Companion  will rebalance a Policy
Owner's investment by allocating purchase payments and transferring Accumulation
Value among the  Subaccounts  and the Fixed  Account to ensure  conformity  with
current allocation  instructions.  Rebalancing will be performed on a quarterly,
semi-annual  or annual  basis as  specified  by the Policy  Owner.  Transfers of
Accumulation Value made pursuant this program will not be counted in determining
whether the Transfer Fee applies. At the time the program begins,  there must be
at least $10,000 of Accumulation Value under the Policy.
   The Policy Owner can request  participation in the Asset  Allocation  Program
when  purchasing  the  Policy  or at a later  date.  The Owner  can  change  his
allocation  percentage or discontinue  the program by sending  Written Notice to
the Service Office. There is no charge for participation in this program.

                                   THE POLICY

  The  Ultrannuity  Series V  Variable  Annuity  Policy  is a  Flexible  Payment
Variable  Deferred Annuity Policy.  The rights and benefits under the Policy are
summarized  below;  however,  the  description  of the Policy  contained in this
Prospectus is qualified in its entirety by the Policy itself, a copy of which is
available upon request from Companion.  The Policy may be purchased on a non-tax
qualified basis  ("Nonqualified  Policy") or in connection with retirement plans
or  individual  retirement  accounts  that  qualify  for  favorable  income  tax
treatment  ("Qualified   Policy").   The  Policy  will  remain  in  force  until
surrendered for its Cash Surrender Value, or all Proceeds have been paid under a
Payout Option or as a death benefit or upon termination.

POLICY APPLICATION AND ISSUANCE OF POLICIES
   Before it will issue a Policy,  Companion  must  receive a  completed  Policy
application and a minimum  initial  Purchase  Payment of $5,000.  A Nonqualified
Policy ordinarily will be issued only in respect of Owners Age 0 through 83, and
a  Qualified  Policy  ordinarily  will be issued only in respect of Owners Age 0
through  70 1/2.  Companion  reserves  the right to reject  any  application  or
Purchase Payment.
   Under Companion's  Electronic Funds Transfer program,  the Owner can select a
monthly  payment   schedule   pursuant  to  which  purchase   payments  will  be
automatically deducted from a bank or credit union account or other sources. The
minimum  size of an  initial  Purchase  Payment  must be at least  $2,000.  Each
subsequent monthly payment must be at least $100.
  
                                     23
<PAGE>

   If the application can be accepted in the form received, the initial Purchase
Payment will be credited to the  Accumulation  Value  within two  business  days
after the later of receipt of the application or receipt of the initial Purchase
Payment.  If the  initial  Purchase  Payment  cannot  be  credited  because  the
application or other issuing requirements are incomplete,  the applicant will be
contacted  within five business days of receipt and given an explanation for the
delay, and the initial Purchase Payment will be returned at that time unless the
applicant  consents to Companion's  retaining the initial  Purchase  Payment and
crediting it as soon as the necessary requirements are completed.
   The  date  on  which  the  initial   Purchase  Payment  is  credited  to  the
Accumulation  Value is the Date of Issue.  The Date of Issue is the date used to
determine Policy Years and Policy anniversaries.

PURCHASE PAYMENTS
   All  initial  Purchase  Payment  checks or drafts  should be made  payable to
Companion  Life  Insurance  Company and sent to the Service  Office.  Additional
Purchase  Payments should be sent to the Service Office.  The death benefit will
not take effect until the check or draft for the Purchase Payment is honored.
   INITIAL PURCHASE PAYMENT. The minimum initial Purchase Payment that Companion
currently will accept under both a Nonqualified Policy and a Qualified Policy is
$5,000  except under the  Electronic  Funds  Transfer  Program where the minimum
initial Purchase Payment is $2,000.  Companion reserves the right to increase or
decrease this amount.  The initial Purchase Payment is the only Purchase Payment
required to be paid under a Policy.
   ADDITIONAL PURCHASE PAYMENTS. The Owner may pay additional Purchase Payments.
The minimum additional  Purchase Payment under both a Nonqualified  Policy and a
Qualified  Policy is $500 except under the  Electronic  Funds  Transfer  Program
where the  minimum  additional  Purchase  Payment is $100.  Additional  Purchase
Payments will be credited to the Policy and added to the  Accumulation  Value as
of the Valuation  Date when they are received at the Service  Office.  Companion
will not  accept  any  additional  Purchase  Payments  beginning  on the  Policy
Anniversary following the Owner's 83rd birthday.
   ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS.  An Owner must allocate Purchase Payments to
one or more of the  Eligible  Investments.  The Owner must  specify  the initial
allocation  in  the  Policy  application.  This  allocation  will  be  used  for
additional  Purchase  Payments unless the Owner requests a change of allocation.
All  allocations  must be made in whole  percentages  and must total  100%.  The
minimum  allocation  amount is $500.  If the Owner fails to specify how Purchase
Payments are to be allocated,  the Purchase  Payment(s) cannot be accepted.  The
initial Purchase  Payment will be allocated to the Owner's selected  Subaccounts
on the Date of Issue. All additional Purchase Payments received after the end of
the free look period will be allocated and credited to the Owner's  Policy as of
the Valuation Period during which they are received.
   The Owner may  change  the  allocation  instructions  for  future  additional
Purchase Payments by sending Written Notice, signed by the Owner, to Companion's
Service  Office.  The  allocation  change will apply to payments  received on or
after the date the Written Notice is received.
   PAYMENT  NOT  HONORED BY BANK.  Any  payment  due under the  Policy  which is
derived, all or in part, from any amount paid to Companion by check or draft may
be postponed  until such time as Companion  determines  that such instrument has
been honored.  Payment by certified  check,  banker's  draft, or cashier's check
will be promptly applied.

ACCUMULATION VALUE
   On the Date of Issue,  the  Accumulation  Value  equals the initial  Purchase
Payment. On any Valuation Date thereafter, the Accumulation Value equals the sum
of the values in the Variable Account and the Fixed Account.
   The  Accumulation  Value is  expected  to  change  from  Valuation  Period to
Valuation  Period,  reflecting  the expenses and  investment  experience  of the
selected  Eligible  Investments as well as the Variable  Account  deductions for
charges.
   THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT VALUE.  The Accumulation Value for each Subaccount is 
equal to:
         (a) the current number of Accumulation Units in the Subaccount for the 
             Policy; multiplied by
         (b) the current Accumulation Unit value.
     A Purchase Payment or transfer  allocated to a Subaccount is converted into
Accumulation  Units  by  dividing  it by the  Accumulation  Unit  value  for the
Valuation  Period during which the Purchase  Payment or transfer is allocated to
the Variable  Account.  The initial  Accumulation Unit value for each Subaccount
was set at $10 when the Subaccount was established.  The Accumulation Unit value
may increase or decrease from one Valuation Date to the next.
     The Accumulation  Unit  value for a  Subaccount  on any  Valuation  Date is
     calculated  as  follows:  
         (a) The net asset value   per share of the Portfolio  multiplied by the
             number of shares  held in the  Subaccount,  before the  purchase or
             redemption of any shares on that date; minus
         (b) the  cumulative  unpaid charge for the Mortality  and  Expense Risk
             Charge and Administrative Expense Charge; minus
         (c) any applicable charge for federal and  state income  taxes, if any;
             the result divided by
                                       24

<PAGE>

         (d) the total number of Accumulation Units held  in  the  Subaccount on
             the  Valuation  Date,  before the  purchase  or  redemption  of any
             Accumulation Units on that day.

Positive  investment  experience of the  applicable  Portfolio will increase the
Accumulation  Unit values and negative  investment  experience will decrease the
Unit values. Expenses and deductions will have a negative effect on Unit values.

     THE FIXED ACCOUNT VALUE.  The  Accumulation  Value of the  Fixed Account on
any Valuation Date is equal to:

           (a) the Accumulation  Value at the end of the preceding Policy Month;
               plus

           (b) any  Purchase  Payments  credited  since the end of the  previous
               Policy Month; plus

           (c) any transfers from the Subaccounts  credited to the Fixed Account
               since the end of the previous Policy Month; minus

           (d) any transfers from the Fixed Account to the Subaccounts since the
               end of the previous Policy Month; minus

           (e) any partial withdrawal and Withdrawal Charge taken from the Fixed
               Account since the end of the previous Policy Month; plus

           (f) interest credited on the Fixed Account balance.

Companion  guarantees that the  Accumulation  Value in the Fixed Account will be
credited with an effective annual interest rate of at least 3%.

NON-PARTICIPATING POLICY
     The Policy does not participate or share in the profits or surplus earnings
of Companion. No dividends are payable on the Policy.

TERMINATION
     If the  Accumulation  Value is less than  $500,  Companion  may  cancel the
Policy upon 60 days' notice to the Owner. This cancellation will be considered a
full surrender of the Policy. If the Accumulation  Value in any Subaccount falls
below $500,  Companion  reserves  the right to transfer the  remaining  balance,
without charge, to the Money Market Subaccount.

                         DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER THE POLICY
WITHDRAWALS
     The Owner may  withdraw  all or a portion  of the Cash  Surrender  Value in
exchange for a cash  payment from  Companion.  The Cash  Surrender  Value is the
Accumulation  Value less any  applicable  Withdrawal  Charge and any  applicable
Policy Fee. (See "CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS.").
     The Owner may withdraw Cash  Surrender  Value from the Variable  Account at
any time prior to the Annuity Starting Date, and after the Annuity Starting Date
if Payout Option 2 is elected as a variable annuity payout option,  by sending a
Written Request to Companion's  Service  Office.  The minimum amount that can be
withdrawn from any Eligible Investment is $500. After a partial withdrawal,  the
remaining  Accumulation  Value must be at least $500.  In the absence of written
instructions  from  the  Owner,  withdrawals  will  result  in  cancellation  of
Accumulation  Units  from  each  applicable  Subaccount  and  the  deduction  of
Accumulation  Value  from the Fixed  Account in the ratio that the value of each
such Eligible  Investment  bears to the total  Accumulation  Value of the Policy
(i.e., pro rata from each Eligible  Investment).  No more than a pro-rata amount
may be withdrawn from the Fixed Account for any partial withdrawal. If the Owner
requests a surrender, the Policy must be returned to the Service Office.
     Withdrawals from the Fixed Account may be delayed for up to six months.
     Each Policy Year the Owner may withdraw up to 15% of Accumulation  Value as
of the date of the first withdrawal that year without  deduction of a Withdrawal
Charge.  Amounts  withdrawn  in  excess of this free  withdrawal  amount  may be
subject to the Withdrawal Charge of up to 7%. For a discussion of the Withdrawal
Charge, see "CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS: Withdrawal Charge."
     Withdrawals  may be taxable and subject to a penalty tax. (See "CHARGES AND
DEDUCTIONS: Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences.")
     Since the Owner  assumes  the  investment  risk with  respect  to  Purchase
Payments  allocated  to  the  Variable  Account,   and  because  surrenders  and
withdrawals  are  subject  to a  Withdrawal  Charge,  and  possibly a charge for
premium taxes,  the total amount paid upon total surrender of the Policy (taking
any prior partial  withdrawals  into account) may be more or less than the total
Purchase Payments made.  Following a surrender of the Policy, or at any time the
Accumulation  Value is zero,  all rights of he Owner will  terminate. 
                                       25

SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN
     Under the  Systematic  Withdrawal  Plan,  the  Policy  Owner  can  instruct
Companion to make automatic  payments of a predetermined  dollar amount or fixed
percentage of Accumulation  Value to them monthly,  quarterly,  semi-annually or
annually from a specified Eligible Investment. The minimum systematic withdrawal
payment is $100.  The "Request for  Systematic  Withdrawal"  form must specify a
date for the first payment,  which must be at least 30 but not more than 90 days
after the form is submitted. The Owner may specify the Eligible Investments from
which  Systematic  Withdrawals  will be made, but no more than a pro-rata amount
can be  withdrawn  from the Fixed  Account.  If the Owner does not  specify  the
Eligible  Investments  from  which  Systematic  Withdrawals  are  to  be  taken,
Systematic  Withdrawals  will be taken  from  each  Eligible  Investment  in the
proportion that the Accumulation Value in each Eligible  Investment bears to the
total Accumulation Value of the Policy.
     The Withdrawal Charge will apply in accordance with its terms.
     A qualified tax adviser should be consulted before a Systematic  Withdrawal
Plan is  requested  since  distributions  under such a Plan may be  taxable  and
subject to a penalty tax. (See "CHARGES AND  DEDUCTIONS:  Certain Federal Income
Tax Consequences.")

ANNUITY PAYMENTS
     Payees receiving  Annuity Payments under the Policy must be individuals who
receive  payments in their own behalf unless  otherwise  agreed to by Companion.
Any Payout  Option  chosen will be effective  when  Companion  acknowledges  it.
Companion may require proof of the Owner's or the  Annuitant's  age or survival.
The level of Annuity Payments is determined by the  Accumulation  Value, the age
and sex of the Annuitant,  and the Payout Option elected. Where required by law,
Annuity Payments will be determined without regard to the Annuitant's sex.
     Amounts applied to Annuity Payments may be subject to an Withdrawal Charge.
(See "CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS:  Withdrawal Charge.") However, a Withdrawal Charge
will not apply on the Annuity Starting Date if the Accumulation Value is applied
after the second Policy  Anniversary to provide  lifetime Annuity Payments under
Payout Option 4.

     ANNUITY STARTING DATE. Unless the Annuity Starting Date is changed, Annuity
Payments  under a  Policy  will  begin on the  Annuity  Starting  Date  which is
selected by the Policy  Owner at the time the Policy is applied  for. The latest
Annuity Starting Date permitted is when the Annuitant attains age 90. An earlier
Annuity Starting Date is required for Qualified Contracts.  The Annuity Starting
Date may be changed from time to time by the Policy  Owner by Written  Notice to
Companion,  provided  that notice of each change is received by Companion at its
Service  Office at least  thirty  (30) days  prior to the then  current  Annuity
Starting Date.

     ELECTION OF PAYOUT  OPTION.  The Policy Owner will choose a Payout  Option,
under  which the Policy  Proceeds  will be paid to the  Payee(s),  in the Policy
application.  However, during the lifetime of the Owner and prior to the Annuity
Starting Date,  the Policy Owner may change the election,  but Written Notice of
any election or change of election  must be received by Companion at its Service
Office at least  thirty  (30) days prior to the  Annuity  Starting  Date.  If no
election is made prior to the Annuity  Starting Date,  Annuity  Payments will be
made under Option 4 providing  lifetime income with  guaranteed  payments for 10
years.  Companion  reserves  the right to pay the  Proceeds  in one sum when the
Proceeds are less than $2,000,  or when the Payout Option chosen would result in
periodic payments of less than $20.
     If the Owner dies prior to the Annuity  Starting Date (and the Policy is in
force),  the Beneficiary may elect to receive the death benefit under one of the
Payout  Options,  to the extent  allowed by law and  subject to the terms of any
settlement agreement. (See "DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER THE POLICY: Death Benefit.")
     The longer the guaranteed or projected Payout Option period,  the lower the
amount of each payment.
     Unless  the  Policy  Owner  specifies  otherwise,  the  Payee  shall be the
Annuitant.

     FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS.  Fixed annuity payments are available under all six
Payout Options below.  Under each fixed Payout Option the amount of each payment
will be set on the Annuity  Starting Date and will not change.  Annuity Payments
will begin on that date. The Accumulation Value reduced by any Withdrawal Charge
will be  transferred  to the  general  account  of  Companion,  and the  Annuity
Payments  will be fixed in amount by the fixed annuity  provisions  selected and
the age and sex (if  consideration  of sex is  allowed)  of the  Annuitant.  The
guaranteed  effective  annual  interest  rate used in the Payout  Options is 3%.
Using a procedure approved by its Board of Directors, Companion may, at its sole
discretion,  declare  additional  interest to be paid or credited  annually  for
Payout Options 1, 2, 3, or 6. Current immediate annuity rates for the same class
of  annuities  will be used if higher than the  guaranteed  amounts  (guaranteed
amounts  are based upon the tables  contained  in the  Policy).  The  guaranteed
amounts are based on the 1983 Table "A"  mortality  table,  and 3.0%  guaranteed
interest  rate.  Current  amounts may be obtained  from  Companion.  For further
information, contact Companion at its Service Office.
                                       26
<PAGE>

     VARIABLE  ANNUITY  PAYMENTS.  Only Payout Options 2, 4, and 6 are available
for variable  annuity  payments.  The dollar amount of the first monthly annuity
payment will be  determined  by applying the  Accumulation  Value reduced by any
Withdrawal  Charge  allocated to variable  annuity payments to the annuity table
applicable to the Payout Option chosen.  The tables are determined from the 1983
Table "a" mortality  table with an assumed  investment  rate of 4%. If more than
one  subaccount  has  been  selected,  the  Accumulation  Value  reduced  by any
Withdrawal Charge of each subaccount is applied  separately to the annuity table
to  determine  the  amount of the first  annuity  payment  attributable  to that
particular subaccount.
             All  variable  annuity  payments  other than the first will vary in
amount  according to the investment  performance of the applicable  subaccounts.
The amount of each  subsequent  payment  is the sum of:  the number of  Variable
Annuity Units for each  subaccount as determined  for the first annuity  payment
multiplied by the value of a Variable  Annuity Unit for that  subaccount 10 days
prior to the date the variable  annuity payment is due. This amount may increase
or decrease from month to month.
             If the net  investment  return of a subaccount for a payment period
is equal to the pro-rated portion of the 4% annual assumed  investment rate, the
variable  annuity  payment  attributable to that subaccount for that period will
equal the payment for the prior period.  To the extent that such net  investment
return exceeds an annualized  rate of 4% for a payment  period,  the payment for
that  period will be greater  than the  payment for the prior  period and to the
extent that such return for a period  falls short of an  annualized  rate of 4%,
the payment for that period will be less than the payment for the prior period.

     TRANSFERS  BETWEEN  FIXED  AND  VARIABLE  SUBACCOUNTS.  After  the  Annuity
Starting  Date the  annuitant  may exchange the value of a designated  number of
Variable  Annuity Units of a particular  subaccount into other Variable  Annuity
Units,  the value of which  would be such that the  dollar  amount of an annuity
payment made on the date of the exchange  would be unaffected by the fact of the
exchange. No more than four (4) exchanges may be made within each account year.
         Transfers may be made between  subaccounts and from a subaccount to the
fixed  account.  No exchanges may be made from the fixed account to the variable
subaccounts.  Transfers will be made using the Variable  Annuity Unit values for
the Valuation Period during which any request is received by Companion.

     Payout Options.  The Policy provides six Payout Options which are described
below.

         OPTION 1 -- PROCEEDS  HELD ON DEPOSIT AT  INTEREST.  While the Proceeds
are held by Companion, Companion will annually:
     (a)  pay interest to the Payee; or
     (b)  add interest to the Proceeds.
         OPTION 2 -- INCOME OF A SPECIFIED AMOUNT.  The Proceeds will be paid in
monthly  installments  of a  specified  amount  over at least a five year period
until the Proceeds, with interest or earnings thereon, have been fully paid.
         OPTION 3 -- INCOME FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD. The Proceeds will be paid in
installments for the number of years chosen. The monthly incomes for each $1,000
of  Proceeds,  shown in the  table set forth in the  Policy,  include  interest.
Companion  will provide the income  amounts for payments other than monthly upon
request.
         OPTION 4 --  LIFETIME  INCOME.  The  Proceeds  will be paid as  monthly
income  for as  long  as the  Annuitant  lives.  The  following  guarantees  are
available:
            GUARANTEED PERIOD - The monthly income will be paid for a minimum of
            10  years  and  as  long  thereafter  as  the  Annuitant  lives;  or
            GUARANTEED AMOUNT - The monthly income will be paid until the sum of
            all  payments  equals the  Proceeds  placed under this option and as
            long thereafter as the Annuitant lives.
If a fixed  annuity  Payment  Option is chosen,  the monthly  income will be the
amount computed using either the Lifetime  Monthly Income Table set forth in the
Policy (which is based on the 1983 Table "A" mortality table and interest at 3%,
adjusted  to age  last  birthday)  or,  if  more  favorable  to  the  Annuitant,
Companion's  then current lifetime monthly income rates for payment of Proceeds.
If a variable Payout Option is chosen, all variable annuity payments, other than
the  first  variable  annuity  payment,  will vary in  amount  according  to the
investment  performance of the applicable  Subaccounts (see "DISTRIBUTIONS UNDER
THE POLICY: Variable Annuity Payments.").
     Note Carefully:  If no guarantee is elected,  then it would be possible for
only one Annuity Payment to be made if the  Annuitant(s)  were to die before the
due date of the  second  annuity  payment;  only  two  Annuity  Payments  if the
Annuitant(s)  were to die before the due date of the third annuity payment;  and
so forth.
     When the Annuitant dies, any remaining  guaranteed Annuity Payments will be
paid to the  Beneficiary.  When the last Payee dies,  Companion  will pay to the
estate of that Payee any remaining guaranteed Annuity Payments.
         OPTION 5 -- LUMP SUM.  The Proceeds will be paid in one sum.

                                       27
<PAGE>

         OPTION  6 --  ALTERNATIVE  SCHEDULE.  Upon  request  and if  available,
Companion will provide payments for other options,  including joint and survivor
periods. Certain options may not be available in some states.

     Additional   information  about  any  Payout  Option  may  be  obtained  by
contacting the Service Office.

                                      * * *

     A portion or the entire  amount of the Annuity  Payments  may be taxable as
ordinary  income.  If, at the time the Annuity  Payments begin, the Policy Owner
has not provided  Companion  with a written  election not to have federal income
taxes  withheld,  Companion  must by law  withhold  such taxes from the  taxable
portion  of  such  annuity  payments  and  remit  that  amount  to  the  federal
government.  Withholding  is  mandatory  for certain  Qualified  Policies.  (See
"CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS: Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences.")

DEATH BENEFIT
     DEATH OF OWNER PRIOR TO ANNUITY  STARTING DATE. If any Owner or joint Owner
dies prior to the Annuity Starting Date (and the Policy is in force), the Policy
will terminate,  and a death benefit will be paid to the Beneficiary.  The death
benefit will equal the largest of (i) the Accumulation  Value (without deduction
of the Withdrawal  Charge), on the later of the date on which Due Proof of Death
or an election of Payout Option is received by Companion's  Service  Office;  or
(ii) the sum of Purchase Payments, less partial withdrawals.
     The death  benefit  is  payable  upon  receipt of Due Proof of Death of the
first Owner to die, election of a Payout Option,  and proof that such Owner died
prior to the commencement of Annuity Payments.  The death benefit generally will
be paid within seven days, or as soon  thereafter  as Companion  has  sufficient
information  about the  Beneficiary  to make the payment.  The  Beneficiary  may
receive  the  amount  payable  in a lump sum cash  benefit,  or,  subject to any
limitation under any state or federal law, rule, or regulation, under one of the
Payout Options  described above,  unless a settlement  agreement is effective at
the death of the Owner that prevents such election.  The  Beneficiary  must make
such  election  within  sixty days of the date  Companion  receives Due Proof of
Death; otherwise a lump sum payment will be made.
     If an Owner of the  Policy is a  corporation  or other  nonindividual,  the
primary  Annuitant will be treated as an Owner of the Policy for purposes of the
death benefit. The "primary Annuitant" is that individual whose life affects the
timing or the amount of the payout  under the  Policy.  A change in the  primary
Annuitant will be treated as the death of an Owner.
     If the  Annuitant  is an Owner or joint Owner,  the death of the  Annuitant
will be treated as the death of an Owner rather than of the Annuitant.
     (If the Annuitant is not an Owner and the Annuitant dies before the Annuity
Starting  Date,  the Owner may name a new  Annuitant  if such  Owner(s) is not a
corporation or other non-individual. If the Owner does not name a new Annuitant,
the Owner will become the Annuitant.)
     DEATH OF OWNER ON OR AFTER  ANNUITY  STARTING  DATE.  If any Owner or joint
Owner dies on or after the  Annuity  Starting  Date and before all the  Proceeds
have been paid, any remaining Proceeds will be paid at least as rapidly as under
the Payout Option in effect at the time of the death.
     BENEFICIARY.  The Owner may change the named Beneficiary by sending Written
Notice to the Service Office unless the named  Beneficiary is irrevocable.  When
recorded and  acknowledged by Companion,  the change will be effective as of the
date the Owner  signed the  request.  The change will not apply to any  payments
made  or  other  action  taken  by  Companion  before  recording.  If the  named
Beneficiary is irrevocable,  the Owner may change the named  Beneficiary only by
joint written request from the Owner and the Beneficiary. If more than one named
Beneficiary  is  designated,  and  the  Policy  Owner  fails  to  specify  their
interests, they will share equally.
     If there are joint  Owners,  the  surviving  joint Owner will be deemed the
Beneficiary,  and  the  Beneficiary  named  in  the  Policy  application  or  as
subsequently  changed will be deemed the contingent  Beneficiary.  If both joint
Owners die  simultaneously,  the death  benefit  will be paid to the  contingent
Beneficiary.
     If the Beneficiary is the deceased Owner's surviving spouse, the spouse may
elect  either to  receive  the death  benefit,  in which  case the  Policy  will
terminate, or to continue the Policy in force with the spouse as Owner.
     If the named Beneficiary does not survive the Owner, then the estate of the
Owner is the Beneficiary.
                                       28
<PAGE>

IRS REQUIRED DISTRIBUTION
     Federal tax law requires  that if a Policy Owner of a  nonqualified  Policy
dies before the Annuity  Starting Date, then the entire value of the Policy must
generally be  distributed  within five years of the date of death of such Policy
Owner.  Therefore,  generally,  any death benefit must be paid within five years
after the date of death.  The  five-year  rule does not apply to that portion of
the  Proceeds  which  (a) is  payable  to or for the  benefit  of an  individual
Beneficiary;  and (b) will be paid over the lifetime or the life  expectancy  of
that  Beneficiary  as long as  payments  begin not later than one year after the
date of the Owner's death. Special rules may apply to the spouse of the deceased
Owner. See "Federal Tax Matters" in the Statement of Additional  Information for
a detailed  description of these rules. Other required  distribution rules apply
to Qualified Contracts. (See "CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS: Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences.")  The Policy  contains  provisions  designed to comply with these
requirements.

                             CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS

     Companion will make certain  charges and deductions in connection  with the
Policy in order to  compensate  it for incurring  expenses in  distributing  the
Policy,  bearing mortality and expense risks under the Policy, and administering
the Accounts and the  Policies.  Charges may also be made for federal,  state or
local taxes (or the economic burden thereof), or for certain transfers.
Charges and expenses are also deducted from each Portfolio.

WITHDRAWAL CHARGE
     Companion will incur expenses  relating to the sale of Policies,  including
commissions  to  registered  representatives  and  other  promotional  expenses.
Companion  will apply a Withdrawal  Charge,  expressed  as a  percentage  of any
Purchase Payment  surrendered or withdrawn,  in connection with a full surrender
or partial withdrawal,  in order to partially cover distribution  expenses.  The
Withdrawal  Charge  Percentage will vary depending upon the number of years that
have  elapsed  since the date the Purchase  Payment was made.  The amount of the
Withdrawal  Charge is  determined  by  multiplying  the amount of each  Purchase
Payment withdrawn by the applicable Withdrawal Charge Percentages.  For purposes
of determining the Withdrawal  Charge, the oldest Purchase Payment is considered
to be withdrawn  first;  the next oldest  Purchase  Payment is  considered to be
withdrawn next, and so on (this is a "first-in,  first-out" procedure),  and all
Purchase Payments are deemed to be withdrawn before any earnings.  The amount of
the partial  withdrawal  requested plus any  Withdrawal  Charge will be deducted
from the  Accumulation  Value on the date an Owner's Written Request is received
at the Service Office. In the absence of other instructions, partial withdrawals
(including  any charge)  will be  deducted  from the  Subaccounts  and the Fixed
Account on a pro-rata  basis.  No more than a pro-rata  amount can be  withdrawn
from  the  Fixed  Account.  The  following  is the  table of  Withdrawal  Charge
Percentages:

  Years Since Receipt of Purchase Payment   1    2   3   4    5   6    7    8+
  Applicable Withdrawal Charge Percentage   7%   6%  5%  4%   3%  2%   1%   0%

     Companion   anticipates  that  the  Withdrawal  Charge  will  not  generate
sufficient funds to pay the cost of distributing the Policies. If this charge is
insufficient to cover the distribution expenses, the deficiency will be met from
Companion's  general funds,  which will include  amounts derived from the charge
for mortality and expense risks (described below).
     Each Policy Year, the Owner can withdraw up to 15% of Accumulation Value at
the time of the first withdrawal each year without  imposition of the Withdrawal
Charge.  A  Withdrawal  Charge will also not be applied on the Annuity  Starting
Date if the Accumulation Value is applied after the second Policy Anniversary to
provide lifetime Annuity Payments under Payout Option 4. (The Withdrawal  Charge
will  apply to  Proceeds  placed  under  Payout  Options  1, 2, 3, 5, and 6.) No
Withdrawal  Charge will be imposed as a result of any death benefit  payment or,
under Qualified Plans, any refund of contributions paid in excess of the Owner's
deductible amounts. Companion will not increase the withdrawal charge.

WAIVER OF WITHDRAWAL CHARGE UPON DISABILITY
     The  Withdrawal  Charge will not be imposed upon any  withdrawal  where the
Owner is physically  disabled.  Companion may require proof of such  disability,
including  written  confirmation of receipt and approval of any claim for Social
Security  Disability  Benefits.  Proof of continued  disability  may be required
through the date of any partial withdrawal or surrender.  Companion reserves the
right  to have  any  Owner  claiming  such  disability  examined  by a  licensed
physician.  The  Disability  Waiver is not  available  if any Owner is receiving
Social Security Disability Benefits on the Date of Issue or is age 65 or older.
  
                                     29
<PAGE>

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE
     Companion  imposes  a daily  charge as  compensation  for  bearing  certain
mortality  and expense risks in  connection  with the  Policies.  This charge is
equal to an  annual  rate of 1.00%  (.0027535%  daily)  of the  value of the net
assets in the  Variable  Account and it will not  increase.  The  Mortality  and
Expense  Risk  Charge is  reflected  in the  accumulation  unit  values for each
Subaccount.
     Accumulation  Values and Annuity  Payments  are not  affected by changes in
actual  mortality  experience or by actual expenses  incurred by Companion.  The
mortality risks assumed by Companion  arise from its contractual  obligations to
make Annuity  Payments  (determined  in accordance  with the Annuity  tables and
other provisions contained in the Policy) and to pay death benefits prior to the
Annuity Starting Date. Thus,  Owners are assured that neither an Annuitant's own
longevity  nor an  unanticipated  improvement  in general life  expectancy  will
adversely affect the periodic Annuity Payments that the Payee will receive under
the Policy.
     The expense risk assumed by Companion is the risk that  Companion's  actual
expenses in administering  the Policy will exceed the amount  recovered  through
the Administrative Charges.
     If  the  Mortality  and  Expense  Risk  Charge  is  insufficient  to  cover
Companion's  actual  costs,  Companion  will bear the loss;  conversely,  if the
charge is more than  sufficient  to cover  costs,  the excess  will be profit to
Companion.  Companion  expects a profit from this charge. To the extent that the
proceeds of the Withdrawal  Charge are  insufficient to cover the actual cost of
Policy  distribution,  the  deficiency  will  be met  from  Companion's  general
corporate assets,  which may include amounts, if any, derived from the Mortality
and Expense Risk Charge.

ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES
     In order to  cover  the  costs of  administering  the  Policies,  Companion
deducts an annual Policy Fee from the Accumulation Value of the Variable Account
and also deducts a daily  Administrative  Expense Charge from the assets of each
Subaccount.
     The  annual  Policy  Fee is  deducted  from the  Accumulation  Value of the
Variable  Account of each Policy on the last  Valuation Date of each Policy Year
prior to the Annuity Starting Date (and upon a complete surrender).  This annual
Policy Fee is $30, and it will not be  increased.  The annual Policy Fee will be
deducted from each Subaccount in the same  proportion that the Variable  Account
Subaccount  Accumulation  Value in each such  Eligible  Investment  bears to the
total  Variable  Account  Accumulation  Value of the Policy.  The portion of the
annual  Policy  Fee  deducted  from the  Variable  Account  Subaccounts  will be
deducted by canceling Accumulation Units. This fee is waived if the Accumulation
Value exceeds  $50,000 on the last Valuation Date of the applicable  Policy Year
and if the Variable Account Accumulation Value is insufficient to pay the Policy
Fee.  The fee is also waived for sales of the Policy to  employees  of Companion
Life or its affiliates.
     Companion  also  deducts a daily  Administrative  Expense  Charge  from the
assets of each  Subaccount of the Variable  Account.  This charge is equal to an
annual rate of .20%  (.0005485%  daily) of the net assets of each  Subaccount of
the Variable Account. The Administrative Expense Charge will not be increased in
the future.

TRANSFER FEE
     There is no charge for transfers from the Fixed Account or for the first 12
transfers from Subaccounts of the Variable Account in each Policy Year. However,
there is a $10 fee for the  thirteenth and each  subsequent  request made by the
Owner to transfer  Accumulation  Value from a Subaccount  during a single Policy
Year. Any applicable Transfer Fee is deducted from the amount  transferred.  All
transfer requests made  simultaneously  will be treated as a single request.  No
transfer  fee will be  imposed  for any  transfer  which  is not at the  Owner's
request. The Transfer Fee will not increase.

FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL TAXES
     No charges are currently made for federal,  state, or local taxes. However,
Companion  reserves the right to deduct  amounts from the  Subaccounts  for such
taxes or any other economic  burden  resulting  from  imposition of the tax laws
that Companion determines to be properly attributable to the Variable Account in
the future.

OTHER EXPENSES INCLUDING INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES
     Each Portfolio of the Series Funds is responsible  for all of its expenses.
The net assets of each Portfolio of the Series Funds will reflect  deductions in
connection with the investment advisory fee and other expenses.
     For more  information  concerning  the  investment  advisory  fee and other
charges  against  the  Portfolios,  see the Summary of this  Prospectus  and the

                     CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     THE  FOLLOWING   DISCUSSION  IS  A  GENERAL   DESCRIPTION  OF  FEDERAL  TAX
CONSIDERATIONS  RELATING TO THE POLICY AND IS NOT  INTENDED AS TAX ADVICE.  THIS
DISCUSSION IS NOT INTENDED TO ADDRESS THE TAX CONSEQUENCES RESULTING FROM ALL OF
THE  SITUATIONS  IN  WHICH  A  PERSON  MAY  BE  ENTITLED  TO OR  MAY  RECEIVE  A
DISTRIBUTION UNDER THE POLICY. ANY PERSON CONCERNED ABOUT THESE TAX IMPLICATIONS
SHOULD CONSULT A COMPETENT TAX ADVISOR BEFORE  INITIATING ANY TRANSACTION.  THIS
DISCUSSION IS BASED UPON COMPANION'S UNDERSTANDING OF THE PRESENT FEDERAL INCOME
TAX LAWS AS THEY ARE CURRENTLY  INTERPRETED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE.  NO
REPRESENTATION  IS MADE AS TO THE LIKELIHOOD OF THE  CONTINUATION OF THE PRESENT
FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS OR OF THE CURRENT INTERPRETATION BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE
SERVICE.  MOREOVER,  THIS  SUMMARY  DISCUSSES  ONLY CERTAIN  FEDERAL  INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES  TO  "UNITED  STATES  PERSONS,"  AND NO  ATTEMPT  HAS BEEN  MADE TO
CONSIDER ANY  APPLICABLE  STATE OR OTHER TAX LAWS.  UNITED STATES  PERSONS MEANS
CITIZENS OR  RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED  STATES,  DOMESTIC  CORPORATIONS,  DOMESTIC
PARTNERSHIPS  AND TRUSTS OR ESTATES  THAT ARE SUBJECT TO UNITED  STATES  FEDERAL
INCOME TAX REGARDLESS OF THE SOURCE OF THEIR INCOME.

     The Policy may be purchased  on a non-tax  qualified  basis  ("Nonqualified
Policy") or purchased and used in connection with plans qualifying for favorable
tax treatment ("Qualified  Policy").  Qualified Policies are designed for use by
individuals whose Purchase Payments are comprised solely of proceeds from and/or
contributions  under  retirement  plans  which are  intended to qualify as plans
entitled to special income tax treatment under Sections 401(a), 403(b), 408A, or
457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  The ultimate
effect of Federal  income taxes on the amounts  held under a Policy,  on Annuity
Payments, and on the economic benefit to the Policy Owner, the Annuitant, or the
Beneficiary depends,  among other things, on the type of retirement plan, on the
tax and employment status of the individual  concerned and on the employer's tax
status.  In addition,  certain  requirements  must be satisfied in  purchasing a
Qualified  Policy  with  proceeds  from  a  tax  qualified  plan  and  receiving
distributions from a Qualified Policy in order to continue  receiving  favorable
tax treatment. Therefore, purchasers of Qualified Policies should seek competent
legal  and  tax  advice  regarding  the  suitability  of the  Policy  for  their
situation, the applicable requirements,  and the tax treatment of the rights and
benefits of the Policy. The following discussion assumes that a Qualified Policy
is purchased with proceeds from and/or contributions under retirement plans that
qualify for the intended special Federal income tax treatment.

TAX STATUS OF THE POLICY
     The  following  discussion  is based  on the  assumption  that  the  Policy
qualifies as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes.  The Statement
of  Additional  Information  discusses  the  requirements  for  qualifying as an
annuity.

TAXATION OF ANNUITIES
     IN  GENERAL.  Section  72 of the Code  governs  taxation  of  annuities  in
general.  Companion  believes  that the  Policy  Owner who is a  natural  person
generally  is not taxed on  increases  (if any) in the  value of a Policy  until
distribution  occurs by withdrawing all or part of the Accumulation Value (e.g.,
partial withdrawals, full surrenders or Annuity Payments under the Payout Option
elected).  For this purpose,  the assignment,  pledge, or agreement to assign or
pledge any  portion of the  Accumulation  Value (and in the case of a  Qualified
Policy,  any portion of an interest in the  qualified  plan)  generally  will be
treated as a distribution. The taxable portion of a distribution (in the form of
a single sum payment or an annuity) is taxable as ordinary income.
     The owner of any annuity  contract  who is not a natural  person  generally
must include in income any  increase in the excess of the Policy's  Accumulation
Value over the "investment in the contract" (discussed below) during the taxable
year.  There are some  exceptions to this rule,  and a prospective  Policy Owner
that is not a natural  person may wish to discuss  these  with a  competent  tax
adviser.

     THE FOLLOWING  DISCUSSION  GENERALLY APPLIES TO A POLICY OWNED BY A NATURAL
PERSON.

     SURRENDERS AND PARTIAL  WITHDRAWALS.  In the case of a surrender or partial
withdrawal  (including  systematic  withdrawals) under a QUALIFIED POLICY, under
Section 72(e) of the Code a ratable  portion of the amount  received is taxable,
generally  based  on the  ratio  of the  "investment  in  the  contract"  to the
individual's  total accrued  benefit for balance under the retirement  plan. The
"investment  in the  contract"  generally  equals  the  amount  of any  purchase
payments  paid  by or on  behalf  of any  individual.  For a  Policy  issued  in
connection with qualified  plans,  the "investment in the contract" can be zero.
Special tax rules may be available  for certain  distributions  from a Qualified
Policy.
     With  respect to  NONQUALIFIED  POLICIES,  partial  withdrawals  (including
systematic  withdrawals)  are generally  treated as taxable income to the extent
that the Accumulation  Value immediately  before the partial  withdrawal exceeds
the "investment in the contract" at that time.
                                       31
<PAGE>

     Full surrenders are treated as taxable income to the extent that the amount
received exceeds the "investment in the contract."
     ANNUITY  PAYMENTS.  Although  tax  consequences  may vary  depending on the
Payout  Option  elected  under the Policy,  in general,  only the portion of the
payout that  represents the amount by which the  Accumulation  Value exceeds the
"investment  in the  contract"  will be  taxed;  after  the  "investment  in the
contract" is recovered,  the full amount of any additional  payments is taxable.
For Variable Annuity Payments, the taxable portion is generally determined by an
equation that  establishes a specific  dollar amount of each payment that is not
taxed.  The dollar  amount is  determined  by dividing  the  "investment  in the
contract" by the total number of expected periodic payments. However, the entire
distribution  will be taxable once the recipient has recovered the dollar amount
of his or her  "investment  in the  contract."  For Fixed Annuity  Payments,  in
general there is no tax on the portion of each Annuity Payment which  represents
the same ratio that the "investment in the contract" bears to the total expected
value  of the  Annuity  Payments  for the  term of the  payments;  however,  the
remainder  of each  Annuity  Payment is  taxable.  Once the  "investment  in the
contract" has been fully  recovered,  the full amount of any additional  Annuity
Payments is  taxable.  If Annuity  Payments  cease by reason of the death of the
Annuitant,  the excess (if any) of the  "investment  in the  contract" as of the
Annuity Starting Date over the aggregate amount of Annuity Payments  received on
or after the  Annuity  Starting  Date that was  excluded  from  gross  income is
allowable as a deduction for the last taxable year of the Annuitant.
     PENALTY  TAX.  In the case of a  distribution  pursuant  to a  Nonqualified
Policy,  there may be imposed a Federal  penalty  tax equal to 10% of the amount
treated as taxable  income.  In  general,  however,  there is no penalty  tax on
distributions:  (a) made on or after the date on which the Policy Owner  attains
age 59 1/2; (b) made as a result of death or disability  of a Policy Owner;  (c)
received in substantially  equal periodic  payments as a life annuity or a joint
and survivor annuity for the lives or life  expectancies of the Policy Owner and
a  "designated  beneficiary";  (d)  from a  qualified  plan;  (e)  allocable  to
investment in the Policy before August 14, 1982;  (f) under a qualified  funding
asset (as defined in Code section  130(d));  (g) under an immediate  annuity (as
defined in Code Section 72(u)(4));  or (h) which are purchased by an employer on
termination  of  certain  types of  qualified  plans  and  which are held by the
employer  until the employee  separates  from  service.  Other tax penalties may
apply to certain distributions under a Qualified Policy.
     DEATH BENEFIT PROCEEDS. Amounts may be distributed from the Account because
of the death of a Policy Owner.  Generally,  such amounts are  includible in the
income of the recipient as follows:  (1) if  distributed in a lump sum, they are
taxed in the same  manner as a full  surrender  as  described  above;  or (2) if
distributed under an Annuity Payout Option, they are taxed in the same manner as
Annuity Payments, as described above.
     TRANSFERS, ASSIGNMENTS, OR EXCHANGES OF THE POLICY. A transfer of ownership
of a Policy,  the designation of an Annuitant or Beneficiary who is not also the
Policy Owner,  the selection of certain annuity  starting dates, or the exchange
of a Policy may result in certain tax  consequences to the Policy Owner that are
not discussed herein. Policy Owners contemplating any such transfer, assignment,
or exchange of a Policy  should  contact a competent tax adviser with respect to
the potential tax effects of such a transaction.
     MULTIPLE  POLICIES.  All nonqualified  deferred annuity  contracts that are
issued by  Companion  (or its  affiliates)  to the same Policy  Owner during any
calendar  year are treated as one annuity  contract for purposes of  determining
the amount  includible  in gross  income  under  section  72(e) of the Code.  In
addition,  the Treasury  Department has specific  authority to issue regulations
that  prevent the  avoidance  of section  72(e)  through the serial  purchase of
annuity  contracts or otherwise.  Congress has also  indicated that the Treasury
Department may have authority to treat the combination  purchase of an immediate
annuity  contract and separate  deferred  annuity  contract as a single  annuity
contract under its general  authority to prescribe  rules as may be necessary to
enforce  the  income tax laws.  Any Policy  Owner or  prospective  Policy  Owner
contemplating  the  purchase of more than one annuity in a calendar  year should
consult a tax advisor.
     WITHHOLDING.  Pension and annuity  distributions  generally  are subject to
withholding for the recipient's  federal income tax liability at rates that vary
according  to  the  type  of  distribution   and  the  recipient's  tax  status.
Recipients, however, generally are provided the opportunity to elect not to have
tax withheld from distributions.  Effective January 1, 1994,  distributions from
certain qualified plans are generally subject to mandatory withholding.  Certain
states also require  withholding of state income taxes  whenever  federal income
taxes are withheld.
     POSSIBLE  CHANGES IN TAXATION.  Legislation has been proposed in 1998 that,
if enacted, would adversely affect the federal taxation of certain insurance and
annuity  contracts.   For  example,  one  proposal  would  tax  transfers  among
investment options and tax exchanges involving variable insurance  contracts.  A
second  proposal would reduce the  "investment in the contract" under Cash Value
Life  insurance  and  certain  annuity  contracts  by certain  amounts,  thereby
increasing  the amount of income for purposes of computing  gain.  Although  the
likelihood  of there  being  any  changes  is  uncertain,  there is  always  the
possibility  that the tax treatment of the Policies  could change by legislation
or  other  means.  Moreover,  it is also  possible  that  any  change  could  be
retroactive  (that is,  effective  prior to the date of the change).  You should
consult a tax advisor with respect to legislative  developments and their effect
on the Policy.
                                       32

     OTHER TAX  CONSEQUENCES.  As noted above,  the foregoing  discussion of the
Federal income tax  consequences  under the Policy is not exhaustive and special
rules are provided  with respect to other tax  situations  not discussed in this
Prospectus.  Further,  the  Federal  income tax  consequences  discussed  herein
reflect Companion's understanding of current law and the law may change. Federal
estate and state and local estate,  inheritance,  and other tax  consequences of
ownership or receipt of distributions  under the Policy depend on the individual
circumstances of each Policy Owner or recipient of the distribution. A competent
tax adviser should be consulted for further information.

QUALIFIED PLANS
     The Policy may be used with  certain  qualified  plans as  described in the
following  paragraphs.  The tax rules  applicable  to Policy Owners in qualified
plans,  including  restrictions  on  contributions  and  benefits,  taxation  of
distributions and any tax penalties,  vary according to the type of plan and the
terms and  condition  of the plan  itself.  Various tax  penalties  may apply to
contributions in excess of specified  limits,  distribution  that do not satisfy
specified  requirements and certain other transactions with respect to qualified
plans.  Therefore,  no attempt is made to provide more than general  information
about the use of the Policy with qualified plans. Policy Owners,  Annuitants and
Beneficiaries  are cautioned that the rights of any person to any benefits under
qualified  plans  may be  subject  to the  terms  and  conditions  of the  plans
themselves,  regardless of the provisions of the Policy.  Some retirement  plans
are subject to distribution and other  requirements that are not incorporated in
Companion  Life  Insurance   Company's  Policy   provisions  or   administration
procedures.  Policy Owners,  participants and  beneficiaries are responsible for
determining  that  contributions,  distributions  and  other  transactions  with
respect  to  the  Policy  comply  with  applicable  law.   Following  are  brief
descriptions of the circumstances in which Companion Life Insurance Company will
issue the Policy in connection with qualified  plans.  When issued in connection
with a  qualified  plan,  the Policy  will be amended  to conform  with  certain
requirements  of the Code, and this amendment must be approved by the applicable
State  Insurance  Department  before  the  Policy  is  available  for use with a
qualified  plan.  The Policy may not be available in all States for all types of
qualified plans.
     For qualified plans under Section 401(a) and 403(b), the Code requires that
distributions  generally must commence no later than the later of April 1 of the
calendar  year  following  the calendar  year in which the Policy Owner (or plan
participant)  (i)  reaches  age 70 1/2 or (ii)  retires,  and  must be made in a
specified  form or manner.  If the plan  participant  is a "5 percent owner" (as
defined in the Code),  distributions  generally must begin no later than April 1
of the calendar  year  following the calendar year in which the Policy Owner (or
plan  participant)  reaches  age 70 1/2.  For IRSs  described  in  Section  408,
distributions  generally must commence no later than the later of April 1 of the
calendar  year  following  the calendar  year in which the Policy Owner (or plan
participant)  reaches age 70 1/2.  Roth IRAs under  Section  408A do not require
distributions at any time prior to the Policy Owner's death.
     QUALIFIED  PENSION  OR PROFIT  SHARING  PLANS.  Section  401(a) of the Code
permits  employers to establish  retirement plans for employees and also permits
self-employed individuals to establish retirement plans for themselves and their
employees.  Subject to the Policy's  purchase payment limits,  the Policy may be
issued to the trustee of such plan if the  trustee is the Owner and  Beneficiary
of the  Policy,  if the  trustee or the  employer  selects  the Policy as a plan
investment,  and if the trustee  arranges for plan  services  from a party other
than  Companion  (unless an officer  of  Companion  agrees in writing to perform
services before the Policy is issued).  If the participant  directs  investments
under the plan,  an  individual  Policy  must be  issued  for each  participant.
Purchasers  of a Policy for use with such plans  should  seek  competent  advice
regarding the suitability of the Policy to their specific needs.  Adverse tax or
other legal  consequences  to the plan, the participant or to both may result if
the Policy is assigned or  transferred  to any  individual as a means to provide
benefit  payments,  unless  the  plan  establishes  compliance  with  all  legal
requirements applicable to such benefits prior to transfer of the Policy.
     INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT  ANNUITIES.  Section 408 of the Code permits eligible
individuals  to  contribute  to an  individual  retirement  program  known as an
Individual  Retirement  Annuity ("IRA").  Also,  distribution from certain other
types of qualified plans may be "rolled over" on a tax-deferred basis to an IRA.
The Taxpayer  Relief Act of 1997 added  several  features to the IRA  permitting
withdrawals  prior to age 59 1/2  without  federal  tax penalty for such uses as
purchase of a first residence and education. This Act also created a new kind of
IRA, known as a "Roth IRA." Unlike the traditional  IRA,  deposits in a Roth IRA
are not deductible,  but if certain specified conditions are met,  distributions
from  Roth  IRA's  can  be  tax  free.  Assets  in a Roth  IRA  accumulate  on a
tax-deferred,  and potentially tax-free, basis. Subject to the Policy's purchase
payment limits, the Policy may be issued as an IRA or Roth IRA.  Purchasers of a
Policy  for  use as an IRA or  Roth  IRA  will  be  provided  with  supplemental
information required by the Internal Revenue Service.  Such purchasers will have
the right to revoke  their  purchase  within  seven  days of the  earlier of the
establishment  of the IRA/Roth  IRA or their  purchase.  Purchasers  should seek
competent advice as to the suitability of the Policy to their specific needs. An
IRA or Roth IRA cannot be assigned.
     SIMPLE  RETIREMENT  ACCOUNTS.  Certain small employers may establish Simple
Retirement  Accounts  as  provided  by Section  408(p) of the Code,  under which
employees  may  elect to defer up to  $6,000  (as  increased  for cost of living
adjustments)  as a  percentage  of  compensation.  The  sponsoring  employer  is
required to make a matching  contribution on behalf of  contributing  employees.
Distributions  from  a  Simple  Retirement  Account  are  subject  to  the  same
restrictions  that apply to IRA  distributions and are taxed as ordinary income.
                                       33
<PAGE>

Subject to certain exceptions,  premature  distributions prior to age 59 1/2 are
subject to a 10% penalty  tax,  which is  increased  to 25% if the  distribution
occurs  within  the first two years  after the  commencement  of the  employee's
participation in the plan. The failure of the Simple Retirement  Account to meet
Code  requirements  may  result  in  adverse  tax  consequences.   TAX-SHELTERED
ANNUITIES.  Section  403(b) of the Code  permits  public  school  employees  and
employees of certain types of religious, charitable, educational, and scientific
organizations  specified in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code to direct the purchase
of annuity contracts and, subject to certain limitations,  exclude the amount of
purchase  payments from gross income for tax purposes.  These annuity  contracts
are commonly referred to as "Tax-Sheltered  Annuities."  Subject to the Policy's
purchase payment limits, the Policy may be issued as a Tax-Sheltered  Annuity if
each   purchase   payment  is  a  direct   transfer  or  rollover  from  another
Tax-Sheltered  Annuity that is either offered through a government employer such
as a public school or funded only with salary  reduction  contributions.  Unlike
some other Tax-Sheltered  Annuities, the Policy does not accept salary reduction
contributions  directly from an employer's  payroll office and it does not offer
loans or  hardship  withdrawals.  Except  in the case of a  direct  transfer  to
another  Tax-Sheltered  Annuity,  withdrawals  under the Policy  are  prohibited
unless made after the Policy Owner attains age 59 1/2,  upon the Policy  Owner's
separation  from  service  or upon  the  Policy  Owner's  death  or  disability.
Purchasers  should seek competent advice as to the suitability of the Policy for
their specific needs.

                           DISTRIBUTOR OF THE POLICIES

     Mutual of Omaha Investor Services,  Inc.  ("MOIS"),  Mutual of Omaha Plaza,
Omaha Nebraska  68175, is the principal  underwriter of the Policies.  MOIS is a
100%  owned  subsidiary  of  Mutual  of Omaha  Insurance  Company,  which is the
ultimate parent company of Registrant,  Companion Life Insurance  Company.  MOIS
has entered or will enter into one or more contracts with various broker-dealers
for the distribution of the Policies. MOIS is registered with the Securities and
Exchange  Commission  as  a  broker-dealer  and  is a  member  of  the  National
Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc. Commission paid to a broker-dealer will
be up to 7% of Purchase Payments.

                                  VOTING RIGHTS

     To the extent required by law,  Companion will vote Series Fund shares held
by the  Variable  Account at regular  and  special  shareholder  meetings of the
Series Funds in accordance with instructions received from persons having voting
interests  in the  portfolios.  If,  however,  the  1940  Act or any  regulation
thereunder should be amended or if the present  interpretation thereof should be
amended or if the present  interpretation thereof should change, and as a result
Companion  determines that it is permitted to vote Series Fund shares in its own
right,  it may elect to do so.  The  Series  Funds may not hold  routine  annual
Shareholder meetings.
     The Policy Owner holds the voting interest in the selected Portfolios.  The
number  of votes  that an Owner  has the right to  instruct  will be  calculated
separately for each Subaccount.  The number of votes that an Owner has the right
to instruct for a particular  Subaccount  will be  determined by dividing his or
her Accumulation Value in the Subaccount by the net asset value per share of the
corresponding Portfolio in which the Subaccount invests.  Fractional shares will
be counted.  Each Owner having a voting  interest in a  Subaccount  will receive
proxy  material,  reports,  and  other  materials  relating  to the  appropriate
Portfolio.

                             PREPARING FOR YEAR 2000

     Like all financial services providers,  Companion utilizes systems that may
be affected by Year 2000  transition  issues and relies upon service  providers,
including investment managers, whose own systems may also be affected. Companion
has developed,  and is in the process of  implementing,  a Year 2000  transition
plan,  and is confirming  that its service  providers  are also so engaged.  The
resources that are being devoted to this effort are substantial. It is difficult
to predict with precision whether the amount of resources ultimately devoted, or
the  outcome  of these  efforts,  will have any  negative  impact on  Companion.
However,  as of the date of this prospectus,  it is not anticipated that Policy
Owners will experience negative effects on their investment,  or on the services
provided  in  connection  therewith,  as  a  result  of  Year  20000  transition
implementation.


                                LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     There are no legal  proceedings to which the Variable Account is a party or
to which the  assets of the  Variable  Account  are  subject.  Companion  is not
involved in any  litigation  that is of material  importance  in relation to its
total assets or that relates to the Variable Account.

OWNER AND JOINT OWNER
     While the Owner is alive,  only the Owner may exercise the rights under the
Policy. Ownership may be changed as described below under "Assignment." If there
are joint Owners,  the  signatures of both Owners are needed to exercise  rights
under the Policy. If the Annuitant is other than the Owner, the Annuitant has no
rights under the Policy.

DEATH OF ANNUITANT
     If the  Annuitant  is an Owner or joint Owner,  the death of the  Annuitant
will be treated as the death of the Owner rather than of the Annuitant.
     If the Annuitant is not an Owner and the Annuitant  dies before the Annuity
Starting  Date,  the Owner may name a new  Annuitant  if such  Owner(s) is not a
corporation or other non-individual. If the Owner does not name a new Annuitant,
the Owner will become the Annuitant.

ENTIRE CONTRACT
     The entire  contract  is the Policy,  data page,  any riders and the signed
application, a copy of which will be attached to the Policy. All statements made
in the  application  will  be  deemed  representations  and not  warranties.  No
statement, unless it is in the application, will be used by Companion to contest
the Policy or deny a claim.
     Any  change of the  Policy  and any  riders  requires  the  consent  of the
president, vice president,  assistant vice president, the secretary or assistant
secretary of Companion.  No agent or Registered  Representative has authority to
change or waive any provision of the Policy.
     Companion reserves the right to amend the Policies to meet the requirements
of, or take  advantage of, the Internal  Revenue Code,  regulations or published
rulings. A Policy Owner can refuse such a change by giving Written Notice, but a
refusal may result in adverse tax consequences.

DEFERMENT OF PAYMENT AND TRANSFERS
     Companion will usually pay any amounts payable from the Variable Account as
a result of a partial  withdrawal  or cash  surrender  within  seven  days after
receiving  written  request  at the  Service  Office in a form  satisfactory  to
Companion.  Companion  can postpone  such  payments or any  transfers of amounts
between Subaccounts or into the Fixed Account if:
        (a) the New York  Stock  Exchange  is closed  for other  than  customary
            weekend and holiday closings;
        (b) trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted;
        (c) an  emergency  exists  as  determined  by  the  Securities  Exchange
            Commission,  as a result of which it is not reasonably  practical to
            dispose of securities,  or not reasonably practical to determine the
            value of the net assets of the Variable Account; or
        (d) the Securities  Exchange Commission permits delay for the protection
of security holders.  The applicable rules of the Securities Exchange Commission
will govern as to whether the conditions in (c) or (d) exist.
        Companion  may defer  transfers,  payment  of partial  withdrawals  or a
surrender  from the Fixed  Account  for up to six months  from the date  written
request is received at the Service Office.

INCONTESTABILITY
        Companion  will not contest the validity of the Policy after the Date of
Issue.

MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX
        Companion may require  proof of the age of the  Annuitant  before making
any life annuity payment. If the age or sex of the Annuitant has been misstated,
the Annuity  Starting Date and Annuity  Payments  will be  determined  using the
correct age and sex. If misstatement  of age or sex results in Annuity  Payments
that are too large,  the  overpayments  will be  deducted  from  future  Annuity
Payments.  If Companion has made payments that are too small, the  underpayments
will be added to the next payment. Adjustments for overpayments or underpayments
will include 6% interest.

NONPARTICIPATING
        No dividends will be paid.  Neither the Owner nor the  Beneficiary  will
have the right to share in Companion's surplus earnings or profits.

ASSIGNMENT
     The Owner may change the ownership of the Policy or pledge it as collateral
by assigning  it. No  assignment  will be binding on Companion  until  Companion
records  and  acknowledges  it.  The  rights of any Payee  will be  subject to a
collateral assignment.
        If the named  Beneficiary  is  irrevocable,  a change of  ownership or a
collateral  assignment may be made only by joint written  request from the Owner
and the named  Beneficiary.  On the Annuity  Starting Date, the Owner may select
another  Payee,  but the Owner retains all rights of ownership  unless the Owner
signs an absolute assignment.

EVIDENCE OF AGE OR SURVIVAL
        Companion  reserves the right to require proof of the age or survival of
any Owner,  Annuitant or Payee. No payment will be made until Companion receives
such proof.

VARIABLE ANNUITY UNITS.
        All variable  annuity  payments  other than the first are  determined by
means of Variable  Annuity  Units  credited  to the Policy  with  respect to the
particular  Payee.  The number of  Variable  Annuity  Units for each  applicable
Subaccount  is the  amount of the first  annuity  payment  attributable  to that
Subaccount  divided  by the  Annuity  Unit Value for that  Subaccount  as of the
Annuity  Starting Date. The number of Variable  Annuity Units of each particular
Subaccount  credited  with respect to the Payee or Annuitant  then remains fixed
unless a transfer of Variable  Annuity  Units is made as  described  below.  The
number of  Variable  Annuity  Units  will not  change as a result of  investment
experience.
               For any Valuation Period, the value of a Variable Annuity Unit of
a  particular  Subaccount  is the  Variable  Annuity  Unit value during the last
Valuation  Period  for  that  particular  Subaccount,   multiplied  by  the  Net
Investment  Factor for that  Subaccount for the current  Valuation  Period.  The
value of a Subaccount may increase or decrease from one Valuation  Period to the
next.
               The Net  Investment  Factor for any  Subaccount for any Valuation
Period is  determined by dividing (a) by (b) and then  subtracting  (c) from the
result where:
        (a) is the net result of:
            (1)the net asset value of a Portfolio  share held in the subaccount
               determined as of the end of the current Valuation Period, plus
            (2)the per share amount of any declared and unpaid  dividends or 
               capital  gains  accruing to that Portfolio, plus or minus
            (3)a per share  credit or charge  with  respect to any taxes paid or
               reserved for by Companion  during the  Valuation  Period which is
               determined by Companion to be  attributable  to the operations of
               the Subaccount;
        (b) is the net asset value per share of the Fund held in the  Subaccount
            determined as of the end of the preceding  Valuation  Period plus or
            minus the per share  credit or charge with respect to any taxes paid
            or reserved for the preceding Valuation Period; and
        (c) is the asset charge factor determined by Companion for the Valuation
            Period to reflect  the  Mortality  and  Expense  Risk Charge and the
            Administrative  Expense Charge  deducted from the Variable  Account.
            This factor is equal,  on an annual basis, to 1.20% of the net asset
            value of the Variable Account.
The result is then  multiplied  by a factor that offsets the Assumed  Investment
Rate  used to  establish  the  Annuity  Payment  Rates  found in the  applicable
Contract,  which allows the actual investment rate to be credited. For a one day
Valuation Period the factor is 0.99989255 using an Assumed Investment Rate of 4%
per year.

                               FEDERAL TAX MATTERS
TAX STATUS OF THE POLICY
        DIVERSIFICATION  REQUIREMENTS.  Section  817(h) of the Internal  Revenue
Code  provides  that in  order  for a  variable  contract  which  is  based on a
segregated  asset account to qualify as an annuity  contract under the Code, the
investments made by such account must be "adequately  diversified" in accordance
with Treasury regulations.  The Treasury regulations issued under Section 817(h)
(Treas.  Reg. ss.  1.817-5) apply a  diversification  requirement to each of the
Subaccounts of the Variable Account.  The Variable  Account,  through the Series
Funds  and  their  Portfolios,  intends  to comply  with  those  diversification
requirements.  Companion  and the Series  Funds  have  entered  into  agreements
regarding  participation  in the Series Funds that requires the Series Funds and
their Portfolios to be operated in compliance with the Treasury regulations.
        OWNER  CONTROL.  In certain  circumstances,  owners of variable  annuity
contracts may be considered the owners, for federal income tax purposes,  of the
assets  of the  separate  account  used to  support  their  contracts.  In those
circumstances,  income  and gains  from the  separate  account  assets  would be
includible in the variable contract owner's gross income.  The IRS has stated in
                                       3
<PAGE>

published rulings that a variable contract owner will be considered the owner of
separate  account assets if the contract owner possesses  incidents of ownership
in those  assets,  such as the ability to exercise  investment  control over the
assets. The Treasury Department also announced,  in connection with the issuance
of  regulations  concerning  diversification,  that  those  regulations  "do not
provide guidance  concerning the  circumstances in which investor control of the
investments  of a segregated  asset  account may cause the investor  (i.e.,  the
Owner),  rather than the  insurance  company,  to be treated as the owner of the
assets in the account."  This  announcement  also stated that guidance  would be
issued by way of  regulations  or rulings on the "extent to which  policyholders
may direct their investments to particular  subaccounts without being treated as
owners of the underlying assets."
        The  ownership  rights under the Policy are similar to, but different in
certain  respects  from,  those  described by the IRS in rulings in which it was
determined that policy owners were not owners of separate  account  assets.  For
example, the Owner has additional flexibility in allocating premium payments and
policy values.  These  differences could result in an Owner being treated as the
owner of a pro-rata portion of the assets of the Separate Account.  In addition,
Companion  does  not know  what  standards  will be set  forth,  if any,  in the
regulations  or rulings which the Treasury  Department  has stated it expects to
issue.  Companion therefore reserves the right to modify the Policy as necessary
to attempt to  prevent  an Owner from being  considered  the owner of a pro-rata
share of the assets of the Variable  Account or to otherwise  qualify the Policy
for favorable tax treatment.
        DISTRIBUTION  REQUIREMENTS.  The Code also  requires  that  Nonqualified
Policies  contain  specific  provisions for distribution of Policy Proceeds upon
the death of an Owner. In order to be treated as an annuity contract for federal
income tax purposes,  the Code  requires  that such Policies  provide that if an
Owner dies on or after the Annuity  Starting Date and before the entire interest
in the Policy has been distributed, the remaining portion must be distributed at
least as rapidly as under the method in effect on the Owner's death. If an Owner
dies before the Annuity  Starting Date,  the entire  interest in the Policy must
generally  be  distributed  within five years  after the Owner's  date of death,
these  requirements are considered to be satisfied if the entire interest in the
Policy is used to purchase an immediate  annuity under which payments will begin
within  one  year of the  Owner's  death  and  will be made  for the life of the
Beneficiary  or for a period not  extending  beyond the life  expectancy  of the
Beneficiary.  If the Beneficiary is the deceased Owner's surviving  spouse,  the
Policy may be continued with the Owner's  surviving spouse as the new Owner. The
Policy  contains  provisions  intended to comply with these  requirements of the
Code. No regulations  interpreting  these requirements of the Code have yet been
issued and thus no assurance can be given that the  provisions  contained in the
Policies  satisfy all such Code  requirements.  The provisions  contained in the
Policies  will be reviewed  and modified if necessary to assure that they comply
with the Code requirements when clarified by regulation or otherwise.

TAXATION OF COMPANION
        Companion at present is taxed as a life  insurance  company under part I
of  Subchapter  L of the  Code.  The  Variable  Account  is  treated  as part of
Companion  and,  accordingly,  will  not be  taxed  separately  as a  "regulated
investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Companion does not expect to
incur any federal income tax liability with respect to investment income and net
capital gains arising from the  activities of the Variable  Account  retained as
part  of the  reserves  under  the  Policy.  Based  on this  expectation,  it is
anticipated  that no charges  will be made  against  the  Variable  Account  for
federal income taxes.  If, in future years,  any federal income taxes or related
economic burdens are incurred by Companion with respect to the Variable Account,
Companion may make a charge to the Variable Account.

                          STATE REGULATION OF COMPANION
        Companion  is  subject  to the  laws  of New  York  governing  insurance
companies and to  regulation  by the New York  Division of Insurance.  An annual
statement in a prescribed  form is filed with the  Department of Insurance  each
year  covering  the  operation  of  Companion  for the  preceding  year  and its
financial condition as of the end of such year.  Regulation by the Department of
Insurance  includes  periodic  examination  to  determine  Companion's  contract
liabilities  and  reserves  so that the  Department  may  certify  the items are
correct.  Companion's books and accounts are subject to review by the Department
of Insurance at all times and a full  examination of its operations is conducted
periodically  by  the  National  Association  of  Insurance  Commissioners.   In
addition,  Companion is subject to regulation  under the insurance laws of other
jurisdictions in which it may operate.

                                 ADMINISTRATION

        Effective March 3, 1997,  Companion Life Insurance  Company performs all
administration for the Policies.  Prior to then, Companion had an administrative
services  agreement with The Continuum  Company,  Inc.  (a/k/a Vantage  Computer
Systems),  ("Vantage"),  P.O. Box 419472, Kansas City, Missouri 64141-6472.  The
services  provided  by  Vantage  under  the  agreement   included  issuance  and
redemption of the Policies,  maintenance of records concerning the Policies, and
certain valuation  services.  Since sales of the Policies did not commence until
January 1997,  Companion paid no  compensation to Vantage related to the sale of
Policies  for any prior  years.  For the fiscal year ended  December  31,  1997,
Companion paid $ 11,132 total compensation to Vantage. For the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1996, Companion paid $ 64,445 total compensation to Vantage.

<PAGE>

                               RECORDS AND REPORTS

        All  records  and  accounts  relating to the  Variable  Account  will be
maintained by Companion or by its  Administrator.  As presently  required by the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and regulations promulgated thereunder, Companion
will mail to all Policy Owners at their last known  address of record,  at least
annually,   financial   statements  of  the  Variable  Account  and  such  other
information as may be required under that Act or by any other  applicable law or
regulation.  Policy  Owners will also  receive  confirmation  of each  financial
transaction and any other reports required by applicable state and federal laws,
rules, and regulations.

                          DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICIES

        The Policies are offered to the public  through  brokers  licensed under
the  federal  securities  laws and state  insurance  laws.  The  offering of the
Policies is  continuous  and Companion  does not  anticipate  discontinuing  the
offering of the Policies.  However,  Companion reserves the right to discontinue
the offering of the Policies.
        Mutual of Omaha Investor  Services,  Inc. ("MOIS") will be the principal
underwriter  of the Policies.  The Policies will be  distributed by MOIS through
retail broker-dealers. Commissions payable to a broker-dealer will be up to 7.0%
of Purchase  Payments.  For the fiscal year ended  December 31, 1997,  Companion
paid $ 261,234 in total  compensation to MOIS; of this amount MOIS retained $ as
concessions  for its  services as  Principal  Underwriter  and for  distribution
concessions, with the remaining amount paid to other broker-dealers.

                                CUSTODY OF ASSETS

        The assets of each of the  Subaccounts of the Variable  Account are held
by  Companion.  The  assets of the  Variable  Account  are  segregated  and held
separate and apart from  Companion's  general account  assets.  Companion or the
Administrator  maintains  records of all purchases and  redemptions of shares of
the Series Funds held by each of the Subaccounts.  Additional protection for the
assets of the  Variable  Account  is  afforded  by  Companion's  fidelity  bond,
presently  in the  amount of $10  million,  covering  the acts of  officers  and
employees of Companion.

                           HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

        From time to time,  Companion may disclose  yields,  total returns,  and
other  performance  data  pertaining  to the  Policies  for a  Subaccount.  Such
performance data will be computed,  or accompanied by performance data computed,
in  accordance  with  the  standards  defined  by the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission.
        The yields and total returns of the Subaccounts of the Variable  Account
normally will fluctuate  over time.  THEREFORE,  THE DISCLOSED  YIELDS AND TOTAL
RETURNS FOR ANY GIVEN PAST PERIOD ARE NOT AN  INDICATION  OR  REPRESENTATION  OF
FUTURE YIELDS OR RATES OF RETURN.  A Subaccount's  actual yield and total return
is  affected  by the types  and  quality  of  portfolio  securities  held by the
Portfolio and its operating expenses.
        Because of the charges and deductions imposed under a Policy, the yields
and total  returns for the  Subaccounts  will be lower than the yields and total
returns for their respective Portfolios.  The yield figures will not reflect the
Withdrawal Charge.

MONEY MARKET YIELDS
        From time to time,  advertisements  and sales  literature  may quote the
current  annualized yield of the Money Market  Subaccount for a seven-day period
in a manner which does not take into  consideration  any realized or  unrealized
gains or losses on shares of the  Money  Market  Portfolio  or on its  portfolio
securities. As of December 31, 1997, this current annualized yield is 3.89%.
        This current  annualized yield is computed by determining the net change
(exclusive of realized  gains and losses on the sale of  securities,  unrealized
appreciation and depreciation and excluding income other than investment income)
at the end of the seven-day period in the value of a hypothetical  account under
a  Policy  having  a  balance  of one  Accumulation  Unit  of the  Money  Market
Subaccount at the  beginning of the period to determine the base period  return,
and  annualizing  this  quotient on a 365-day  basis.  The net change in account
value  reflects:   (1)  net  income  from  the  Portfolio  attributable  to  the
 
                                      5
<PAGE>

hypothetical  account;  and (2) charges and deductions  imposed under the Policy
which are attributable to the hypothetical  account.  The charges and deductions
include the per Unit  charges for the  hypothetical  account for: (1) the annual
Policy Fee; (2) the  Administrative  Expense  Charge;  and (3) the Mortality and
Expense Risk Charge.  The $30 annual  Policy Fee is reflected as an annual 0.10%
charged daily, based on an average Accumulation Value of $30,000.  Yield figures
will not reflect the Withdrawal Charge.
        Because of the  charges and  deductions  imposed  under the Policy,  the
yield for the Money Market Subaccount will be lower than the yield for the Money
Market Portfolio.
        The  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  also  permits  Companion  to
disclose  the  effective  yield  of the  Money  Market  Subaccount  for the same
seven-day  period,  determined on a compounded  basis.  The  effective  yield is
calculated by compounding the  unannualized  base period return by adding one to
the base  period  return,  raising the sum to a power equal to 365 divided by 7,
and subtracting one from the result.
        The current and  effective  yields on amounts  held in the Money  Market
Subaccount  normally will fluctuate on a daily basis.  THEREFORE,  THE DISCLOSED
YIELD FOR ANY GIVEN PAST PERIOD IS NOT AN INDICATION OR REPRESENTATION OF FUTURE
YIELDS  OR RATES OF  RETURN.  The  Money  Market  Subaccount's  actual  yield is
affected  by changes  in  interest  rates on money  market  securities,  average
portfolio  maturity  of the Money  Market  Portfolio,  the types of  quality  of
portfolio  securities  held by the Money Market  Portfolio  and the Money Market
Portfolio's operating expenses.  Yields figures do not reflect the effect of any
Withdrawal Charge that may be applicable to a Policy.

OTHER SUBACCOUNT YIELDS
        From time to time,  sales  literature  or  advertisements  may quote the
current  annualized  yield of one or more of the  Subaccounts  (except the Money
Market Subaccount) for a Policy for 30-day or one-month periods.  The annualized
yield of a  Subaccount  refers  to income  generated  by the  Subaccount  over a
specific 30-day or one-month period. Because the yield is annualized,  the yield
generated by a Subaccount  during a 30-day or one-month  period is assumed to be
generated each period over a 12-month period.
        The yield is computed by: (a) dividing the net investment  income of the
Portfolio  attributable  to the Subaccount  Accumulation  Units less  Subaccount
expenses for the period by the maximum offering price per  Accumulation  Unit on
the last day of the period times the daily average  number of units  outstanding
for the  period;  (b)  compounding  that yield for a six-month  period;  and (c)
multiplying that result by 2. Expenses  attributable to the Subaccount  include:
(a) the annual Policy Fee; (b) the  Administrative  Expense Charge;  and (c) the
Mortality and Expense Risk Charge.  The $30 annual Policy Fee is reflected as an
annual  0.10%  charged  daily in the  yield  calculation,  based  on an  average
Accumulation  Value of  $30,000.  The 30-day or  one-month  yield is  calculated
according to the following formula:
            Yield = [2  {a-b + 1}  6 - 1]
                        [   cd  ]
            Where:
            a =--  net  income  of  the  Portfolio  for  the  30-day  or
                     one-month   period   attributable   to  the   Subaccount's
                     Accumulation Units.
            b =-- expenses of the Subaccount for the 30-day or one-month period.
            c =-- the average number of Accumulation  Units  outstanding. 
            d =-- the  Accumulation  Unit  value  at the  close of the last day
                     in the 30-day or  one-month period.

        Because of the charges and  deductions  imposed under the Policies,  the
yield for a Subaccount will be lower than the yield for the corresponding Series
Fund Portfolio.
        Yield  calculations do not take into account the Withdrawal Charge under
the Policy (a maximum of 7% of the Purchase Payments surrendered or withdrawn).

AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
        From time to time,  sales  literature or  advertisements  may also quote
average  annual  total  returns for one or more of the  Subaccounts  for various
periods of time.
        When a  Subaccount  has  been  in  operation  for 1,  5,  and 10  years,
respectively,  the  average  annual  total  return  for  these  periods  will be
provided.  Until a Subaccount has been in operation for 10 years, Companion will
always  include  quotes of average  annual total return for the period  measured
from the date the Policies  were first  offered for sale.  Average  annual total
returns for other periods of time may, from time to time, also be disclosed.
        Average  annual total returns  represent the average  annual  compounded
rates of return that would equate an initial investment of $1,000 under a Policy
to the  redemption  value of that  investment  as of the last day of each of the
periods.  Average  annual total  returns  will be  calculated  using  Subaccount
Accumulation Unit values which Companion calculates at the end of each Valuation
Period based on the performance of the Subaccount's  underlying  Portfolio,  the
deductions for (a) the annual Policy Fee; (b) the Administrative Expense Charge;
and (c) the  Mortality  and Expense  Risk Charge.  The $30 annual  Policy Fee is
                                       6
<PAGE>

reflected as an annual 0.10% charged daily in the  calculation of average annual
total returns,  based on an anticipated  average  Accumulation Value of $30,000.
The  calculation  also assumes  surrender of the Policy at the end of the period
for the return  quotation.  Standard  total  returns  will  therefore  reflect a
deduction of any  applicable  Withdrawal  Charge.  The total return will then be
calculated according to the following formula:
                                 P(1+TR) n = ERV
        Where:
            P =-- a hypothetical initial Purchase Payment of $1,000.
            TR = -- the average annual total return.
            ERV = -- the ending  redeemable  value (net of any  applicable
                      Withdrawal Charge) of the hypothetical  account at the end
                      of the period.
            n =-- the number of years in the period.

ADJUSTED  HISTORICAL  PERFORMANCE  DATA.  Companion may, from time to time, also
disclose yield,  standard total returns,  and non-standard total returns for the
Portfolios of the Series Funds,  including such  disclosure for periods prior to
the dates the Subaccounts  commenced  operations.  For periods prior to the date
the Subaccount commenced operations,  performance  information for Policies will
be calculated  based on the  performance  of the Series Fund  Portfolios and the
assumption that the Subaccounts  were in existence for the same periods as those
indicated for the Series Fund Portfolios,  with the level of Policy charges that
were in effect at the  inception  of the  Subaccounts  (this is  referred  to as
"adjusted  historical"   performance  data).  Such  standardized  but  "adjusted
historical"  average  annual total return  information  for the  Subaccounts  of
Policies is as follows:

standard  formats   described  above.  The  Cumulative  Total  Returns  will  be
calculated using the following formula:

                                CTR = (ERV/P) - 1
        Where:
            CTR  =  -- The  Cumulative  Total  Return  net  of  Subaccount
                         recurring charges for the period.
            ERV   = -- The  ending  redeemable  value  of  the  hypothetical
                        investment at the end of the period.
            P =     -- A hypothetical initial Purchase Payment of $1,000.

STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AND INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995


<PAGE>

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors
Companion Life Insurance Company
Rye, New York

We have  audited the  accompanying  statutory  statements  of  admitted  assets,
liabilities,  and surplus of Companion  Life Insurance  Company (a  wholly-owned
subsidiary  of United of Omaha Life  Insurance  Company) as of December 31, 1997
and 1996, and the related statutory statements of income and changes in surplus,
and cash flows for the years then  ended.  Our  responsibility  is to express an
opinion  on these  financial  statements  based  on our  audits.  The  financial
statements of Companion Life  Insurance  Company for the year ended December 31,
1995 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated April 9, 1997, expressed
an unqualified  opinion on the  presentation  of those  financial  statements in
conformity  with accounting  practices  prescribed or permitted by the Insurance
Department  of the  State of New York and also  expressed  an  opinion  that the
financial  statements were not presented in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting  principles.  The financial  statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management.

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.

As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial  statements,  the Company has
prepared these  financial  statements in conformity  with  accounting  practices
prescribed  or permitted by the  Insurance  Department of the State of New York.
Those  practices  differ from  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  The
effects on the  financial  statements of the  differences  between the statutory
basis  of  accounting  and  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  are not
reasonably determinable, but are presumed to be material.

In our opinion,  because of the effects of the matter discussed in the preceding
paragraph,  the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position
of Companion  Life  Insurance  Company as of December 31, 1997 and 1996,  or the
results of its operations or its cash flows for the years then ended.

However, in our opinion,  the statutory  financial  statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the admitted assets, liabilities,  and
surplus of Companion  Life  Insurance  Company as of December 31, 1997 and 1996,
and the results of its  operations  and its cash flows for the years then ended,
on the basis of accounting described in Note 1 to the financial statements.

To the Board of Directors
Companion Life Insurance Company
Rye, New York


We have audited the accompanying statements of operations,  capital and surplus,
and cash flows of Companion Life Insurance  Company (a New York  Corporation and
wholly-owned  subsidiary of United of Omaha Life Insurance Company) for the year
ended December 31, 1995. These financial  statements are the  responsibility  of
the Company's  management.  Our  responsibility  is to report on these financial
statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our originally issued report dated February 23, 1996, we expressed an opinion
that  the  1995  financial  statements,   prepared  using  accounting  practices
prescribed  or permitted by the  Insurance  Department of the State of New York,
presented  fairly,  in all  material  respects,  the results of  Companion  Life
Insurance Company's operations and its cash flow for the year ended December 31,
1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting  principles.  As described
in Note 1 to the financial  statements,  pursuant to the provisions of Statement
of Financial  Accounting  Standards Board  Interpretation  40,  Applicability of
Generally  Accepted  Accounting  Principles  to Mutual Life  Insurance and Other
Enterprises,  as  amended  ("FIN  40"),  financial  statements  of  mutual  life
insurance  enterprises  for  periods  ending on or  before  December  15,  1996,
prepared  using  accounting  practices  prescribed  or  permitted  by  insurance
regulators   (statutory   financial   statements)   are  no  longer   considered
presentations  in conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.
Accordingly,  our  present  opinion on the  presentation  of the 1995  financial
statements in accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  as
presented herein, is different from that expressed in our previous report.

In our opinion,  because of the effects of the matter discussed in the preceding
paragraph,  the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in
conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  the  results  of
Companion  Life Insurance  Company's  operations and its cash flows for the year
ended December 31, 1995.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects,  the results of Companion Insurance Company's  operations
and its cash flows for the year ended  December  31,  1995,  I  conformity  with
accounting  practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the
State of New York.

COMPANION LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
(A WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF UNITED OF OMAHA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY)


NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     NATURE OF  OPERATIONS - Companion  Life  Insurance  Company (the  Company),
     domiciled in the State of New York, is a wholly-owned  subsidiary of United
     of Omaha Life Insurance Company (United of Omaha),  which is a wholly owned
     subsidiary of Mutual of Omaha Insurance Company (Mutual of Omaha), a mutual
     life and health and accident insurance  company,  domiciled in the State of
     Nebraska.  The Company has  insurance  licenses to operate in three states,
     New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. Individual annuity and life insurance
     products  are sold  primarily  through a network of Mutual of Omaha  career
     agents, direct mail, stockbrokers, financial planners and banks.

     BASIS OF  PRESENTATION - The  accompanying  financial  statements have been
     prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by
     the  Insurance  Department of the State of New York.  Prescribed  statutory
     accounting  practices  are  contained in a variety of  publications  of the
     National  Association of Insurance  Commissioners  (NAIC), as well as state
     laws,  regulations,  and general  administrative rules. Permitted statutory
     accounting  practices  encompass  all  accounting  practices  which may not
     necessarily be prescribed but are not prohibited.

     The accompanying  statutory financial statements vary in some respects from
     those  that  would be  presented  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
     accounting principles.  The most significant differences include: (a) bonds
     are generally  carried at amortized cost rather than being valued at either
     amortized cost or fair value based on their classification according to the
     Company's  ability  and  intent  to  hold  or  trade  the  securities;  (b)
     acquisition costs, such as commissions and other costs related to acquiring
     new  business,  are charged to  operations  as incurred  and not  deferred,
     whereas  premiums  are  taken  into  income  on a pro rata  basis  over the
     respective term of the policies;  (c) deferred federal income taxes are not
     provided for temporary differences between tax and financial reporting; (d)
     no  provision  has  been  made  for  federal  income  taxes  on  unrealized
     appreciation  of investments  which are carried at market value;  (e) asset
     valuation  reserves  (AVR)  and  interest  maintenance  reserves  (IMR) are
     established;  (f) different actuarial  assumptions are used for calculating
     certain policy  reserves;  and (g) changes in certain assets  designated as
     "non-admitted"  assets have been charged to unassigned surplus. The effects
     of the  foregoing  differences  on  the  accompanying  statutory  financial
     statements  are  not  reasonably  determinable,  but  are  presumed  to  be
     material.

     USE OF ESTIMATES - The  preparation  of financial  statements in accordance
     with statutory  accounting  practices 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 revenue  and  expenses
     during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from
     those estimates.



<PAGE>


     INVESTMENTS - Bonds are generally  stated at amortized  cost.  Premiums and
     discounts  on bonds not  backed  by other  loans  are  amortized  using the
     scientific  method.   Premiums  and  discounts  on  loan-backed  bonds  and
     structured  securities  are  amortized  using the interest  method based on
     anticipated prepayments at the date of purchase.  Changes in estimated cash
     flows from the original  purchase  assumptions  are accounted for using the
     retrospective method.

     Mortgage loans and policy loans are stated at the aggregate unpaid balance.
     In accordance with statutory  accounting  practices,  the Company records a
     general reserve for losses on mortgage loans as part of the asset valuation
     reserve.

     Short-term  investments  include all investments whose  maturities,  at the
     time of  acquisition,  are one year or less and are  stated  at cost  which
     approximates market.

     Investment  income is recorded  when earned.  Realized  gains and losses on
     sale  or  maturity  of   investments   are   determined   on  the  specific
     identification   basis.  Any  portion  of  invested  assets  designated  as
     "non-admitted"  are  excluded  from the  statutory  statements  of admitted
     assets, liabilities and surplus.

     ASSET VALUATION AND INTEREST MAINTENANCE RESERVES - The Company establishes
     certain  reserves as promulgated  by the National  Association of Insurance
     Commissioners  (NAIC).  The  AVR  is  established  for  the  specific  risk
     characteristics  of invested assets of the Company.  The IMR is established
     for the  realized  gains  and  losses  on the  redemption  of fixed  income
     securities  resulting from changes in interest rates, net of tax. Gains and
     losses  pertaining to the IMR are  subsequently  amortized into  investment
     income over the expected  remaining  period to maturity of the  investments
     sold or called.

     POLICY  RESERVES - Policy reserves  provide  amounts  adequate to discharge
     estimated  future  obligations  in excess of estimated  future  premiums on
     policies in force.  Reserves for life policies are computed  principally by
     using the  Commissioners'  Reserve Valuation Method (CRVM) basis or the Net
     Level  Premium  Method  with  assumed  interest  rates  (2.5% to 6.0%)  and
     mortality  (1941,  1958 and 1980 CSO tables) as  prescribed  by  regulatory
     authorities.   Annuity   reserves  are  based   primarily   upon  the  1937
     Standardized  Annuity Table with interest  rates ranging from 2.5% to 3.5%,
     the 1971  Individual  Annuity  Mortality  Table with interest rates ranging
     from 4.0% to 7.5%, or the 1983a  Individual  Annuity  Mortality  Table with
     interest  rates  ranging  from 5.25% to 9.25%.  Policy and  contract  claim
     liabilities include provisions for reported claims and estimates for claims
     incurred but not  reported.  To the extent the ultimate  liability  differs
     from the amounts  recorded,  such  differences  are reflected in operations
     when additional information becomes known.

     SPECIAL  SURPLUS AND  CONTINGENCY  RESERVE - The Company is required by the
     State  of New York to  maintain  a group  contingency  life  reserve.  This
     reserve  is equal to an annual  accumulation  of 2% of the net  group  life
     premiums less dividends thereon,  up to a maximum  accumulation of one-half
     of the net aggregate group life premiums received.  This reserve is held as
     a portion of total surplus on the statement of admitted assets, liabilities
     and surplus.

     PREMIUMS AND RELATED  COMMISSIONS - Premiums are  recognized as income over
     the premium paying period of the policies.  Commissions  and other expenses
     related  to the  acquisition  of  policies  are  charged to  operations  as
     incurred.

     FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - The Company files a consolidated  federal income tax
     return with Mutual of Omaha and other eligible subsidiaries.  The method of
     allocating  taxes  among the  companies  is subject to a written  agreement
     approved by the Board of Directors.  Each  company's  provision for federal
     income taxes is based on a separate  return  calculation  with each company
     recognizing  tax  benefits of net  operating  loss  carry-forwards  and tax
     credits on a separate return basis.
<PAGE>

     The  provision  for  federal  income  taxes  is based  on  income  which is
     currently  taxable.  Deferred  federal  income  taxes are not  provided for
     temporary  differences  between  income tax and  statutory  reporting.  The
     Company  recognizes  the benefits of  investment  tax  carry-forwards  when
     realized.

     NON-ADMITTED   ASSETS  -  Certain  assets  designated  as   "non-admitted",
     principally  receivables  greater than ninety days due and office furniture
     and  equipment,  are excluded  from the  statutory  statements  of admitted
     assets,  liabilities and surplus.  The net change in such assets is charged
     or credited directly to unassigned surplus.

     FAIR  VALUES  OF  FINANCIAL   INSTRUMENTS  -  The  following   methods  and
     assumptions  were  used  by  the  Company  in  estimating  its  fair  value
     disclosures for financial instruments:

       CASH,  SHORT-TERM  INVESTMENTS  AND OTHER INVESTED  ASSETS - The carrying
       amounts for these instruments approximate their fair values.

       BONDS - The fair  values  for bonds are  based on quoted  market  prices,
       where available. For bonds not actively traded, fair values are estimated
       using  values  obtained  from  independent  pricing  services or based on
       expected  future cash flows using a current market rate applicable to the
       yield, credit quality, and maturity of the investments.

       MORTGAGE LOANS - The fair values for mortgage  loans are estimated  using
       discounted  cash flow  calculations,  which are based on  interest  rates
       currently  being  offered for similar  loans to  borrowers  with  similar
       credit ratings, credit quality, and maturity of the investments.

       POLICY LOANS - The Company does not believe an estimate of the fair value
       of policy  loans can be made without  incurring  excessive  cost.  Policy
       loans have no stated  maturities  and are usually repaid by reductions to
       benefits and surrenders.  Because of the numerous assumptions which would
       have to be made to estimate  fair value,  the Company  believes that such
       information would not be meaningful.

     SEPARATE  ACCOUNTS  - The  assets  of the  separate  accounts  shown in the
     statutory  statements  of  admitted  assets,  liabilities  and  surplus are
     carried at fair value and  consist  primarily  of mutual  funds held by the
     Company for the benefit of policyholders  under specific individual annuity
     contracts. Benefits paid to separate account policyholders are reflected in
     the statutory  statements of income,  but are offset by transfers  from the
     separate  accounts.  The  payment  of  such  benefits  and the  earning  of
     investment  income  constitute  the  only  significant  activities  in  the
     separate accounts.

     RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years
     amounts  to  conform  with  current  year  presentation  with no changes to
     unassigned surplus or net income.

     Proceeds from the sale of bonds were  $5,707,696,  $2,312,104,  and $48,938
      during 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

     At  December  31,  1997 and  1996,  securities  with an  amortized  cost of
     $274,376  and $274,028  were on deposit  with the New York State  Insurance
     Department.

     The  Company  invests  in  mortgage  loans  collateralized  principally  by
     commercial real estate. The maximum percentage of any one loan to the value
     of the security at the time the loan was originated,  exclusive of insured,
     guaranteed or purchase money mortgages, was 75%. The Company did not invest
     in any new mortgage  loans during 1997 or 1996. The estimated fair value of
     the mortgage loan portfolio was $10,474,689 and $16,960,455 at December 31,
     1997 and 1996, respectively.

     The Company  has  commitments  to fund bond  investments  of  approximately
     $3,600,000 as of December 31, 1997.  These  commitments are legally binding
     and have  fixed  expiration  dates or other  termination  clauses  that may
     require a payment of a fee. In the event that the financial  condition of a
     borrower deteriorates materially,  the commitment may be terminated.  Since
     some of the commitments may expire or terminate,  the total  commitments do
     not necessarily represent future liquidity requirements.

3.   FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

     The provision  for federal  income taxes  reflects an effective  income tax
     rate which differs from the prevailing federal income tax rate primarily as
     a result of income and expense  recognition  differences  between statutory
     and income tax reporting.  The major differences include capitalization and
     amortization  of certain  acquisition  amounts for tax purposes,  different
     methods for determining statutory and tax insurance reserves, timing of the
     recognition of market discount on bonds and certain accrued  expenses,  and
     the acceleration of depreciation for tax purposes.

     The  Company's  tax  returns  have been  examined by the  Internal  Revenue
     Service  (IRS)  through  1992.  The tax returns for 1993  through  1995 are
     currently  under  examination.  Management  believes  the  results of these
     examinations  will  have no  material  impact  on the  Company's  statutory
     financial statements.

     Under  federal  income  tax law  prior to  1984,  the  Company  accumulated
     approximately  $2,623,000  of deferred  taxable  income  which could become
     subject to income taxes in the future under certain conditions.  Management
     believes the chance that those conditions will exist is remote.

4.   RETIREMENT BENEFITS

     The Company  participates  with affiliated  companies in a  noncontributory
     defined benefit plan covering all United States  employees  meeting certain
     minimum   requirements.   Mutual   of  Omaha   and   certain   subsidiaries
     (collectively   referred  to  as  the  Companies)   generally  make  annual
     contributions  to the plan in an amount  between the minimum ERISA required
     contribution and the maximum tax deductible contribution. Companion was not
     required to make a contribution in 1997, 1996 and 1995.  Funds for the plan
     are held in the  general and  separate  accounts of United of Omaha under a
     group  annuity  contract and in domestic  equity and  international  common
     stock funds.

     Information  regarding  accrued  benefits  and  net  assets  has  not  been
     determined  on an individual  company  basis.  The Company's  allocation of
     salary expense was less than 1% of the total  Companies'  salary expense in
     1997, 1996 and 1995. The Companies  expensed  contributions  of $7,972,335,
     $12,152,156  and $9,114,637 in 1997,  1996 and 1995,  respectively.  During
     1996, the Companies  changed  mortality  tables from the 1971 group annuity
     mortality table to the 1983 group annuity  mortality  table. As a result of
     the table  change,  the actuarial  present value of accrued  benefits as of
     January 1, 1996, increased by $21,637,154. The Companies made an additional
     contribution  of $21,637,154 and recorded it net of federal income taxes of
     $7,573,004  as a direct charge to surplus.  The Plan was amended  effective
     January 1, 1997, to include a postretirement medical 401(h) account for the
     funding  of  certain   postretirement  medical  benefits  provided  by  the
     Companies.

     The  Companies  also provide the Mutual of Omaha 401(k)  Long-Term  Savings
     Plan  covering all United States  employees who have  completed one year of
     service and have reached  their 21st  birthday.  Participants  may elect to
     contribute  1% to 16% of  their  salary  annually  subject  to plan and IRS
     limitations.  The  Companies  match  at  least  25% of the  first 6% of the
     contributions  made by  each  participant.  The  Companies  match  up to an
     additional  75%  of  the  first  6%  of  the  contributions  made  by  each
     participant  if  certain   company-wide   performance   measures  are  met.
     Contributions by the Companies were  $8,428,515,  $5,600,402 and $5,774,963
     in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

     The Companies  provide  certain  postretirement  medical and life insurance
     benefits.  The Companies  subsidize these benefits with certain limitations
     to retirees and eligible employee groups.  Employees  retiring on or before
     December 31, 1997, were eligible for the full subsidy if they were at least
     age 55 with at  least  10 years  of  service  and 10  years  of  continuous
     coverage under one of the Companies' health plans. Employees retiring after
     December  31,  1997,  must be at  least  age 60 with at  least  15 years of
     service and 15 years of  continuous  coverage  under one of the  Companies'
     health  plans to be  eligible  for a subsidy.  Employees  hired on or after
     January  1,  1995,  are not  eligible  for a  subsidy.  The  cost of  these
     postretirement benefits is allocated to the Companies based on an actuarial
     valuation.   The  Companies  use  the  accrual  method  of  accounting  for
     postretirement  benefits and elected to amortize  the  original  transition
     obligation over 20 years.

     The health care cost trend rate assumption has a significant  effect on the
     amounts  reported.  To illustrate,  increasing the assumed health care cost
     trend  rate  by one  percentage  point  in each  year  would  increase  the
     Companies'  accumulated  postretirement  benefits obligation as of December
     31, 1997 by approximately $6,200,000 and the estimated eligibility cost and
     interest  components of the net periodic  postretirement  benefit costs for
     1997 by approximately $800,000.

5.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     At December 31, 1997 and 1996,  approximately  $9,922,000 and  $14,879,000,
     respectively,  of the  Company's  investments  in mortgage  loans were held
     through joint participants with United of Omaha.

     United of Omaha provides actuarial, data processing, consulting and various
     other  services  to the  Company.  Charges for these  services  amounted to
     approximately  $7,303,000,  $7,164,000 and  $6,320,000  for 1997,  1996 and
     1995,  respectively.  Included in other liabilities are unsettled  balances
     related to these  services of  approximately  $1,237,000 and $555,000 as of
     December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

     The Company  cedes  group and  individual  life  insurance  and  individual
     annuity  business to United of Omaha.  In 1997, the Company  entered into a
     coinsurance  treaty with United of Omaha relating to bank annuity  business
     in which the Company  cedes 75% of the related  premiums to United of Omaha
     and United of Omaha pays 75% of the related benefits.  The amounts ceded by
     the Company  relating to the treaties  with United of Omaha and included in
     the statutory  statements of admitted assets,  liabilities and surplus were
     as follows:

     United World Life Insurance Company, an affiliate domiciled in the State of
     Nebraska,  had  reinsurance  funds withheld of $500,000 on deposit with the
     Company at December 31, 1995.

6.   REINSURANCE

     In  the  normal  course  of  business,   the  Company   assumes  and  cedes
     reinsurance. The ceding of insurance business does not discharge an insurer
     from its primary legal  liability to a  policyholder.  The Company  remains
     liable to the extent that a reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations.

     The reconciliation of total premiums to net premiums is as follows:

                                1997           1996              1995

                             =============   =============      ============

7.   DEPOSIT FUNDS

     At  December  31, 1997 and 1996,  the Company  held  annuity  reserves  and
     deposit fund liabilities of $90,498,996 and $92,914,171, respectively, that
     were  subject to  discretionary  withdrawal  at book value with a surrender
     charge of less than 5%.
<PAGE>


8.   CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

     Various  lawsuits  have  arisen in the  ordinary  course  of the  Company's
     business.  The Company  believes that its defenses are  meritorious and the
     eventual  outcome of those lawsuits will not have a material  effect on the
     Company's financial position.

9.   STOCKHOLDER DIVIDENDS

     Dividends to the Company's stockholder are subject to prior approval by the
     Superintendent of Insurance of the State of New York.

10.  BUSINESS RISKS

     The Company is subject to regulation by state insurance  departments and it
     undergoes periodic  examinations by those  departments.  The following is a
     description of the most  significant  risks facing life and health insurers
     and how the Company manages those risks:

       LEGAL/REGULATORY RISK is the risk that changes in the legal or regulatory
       environment in which an insurer operates will occur and create additional
       costs or expenses not anticipated by the insurer in pricing its products.
       The Company mitigates this risk by diversifying its products.

       CREDIT RISK is the risk that issuers of  securities  owned by the Company
       will default, or that other parties,  including  reinsurers which owe the
       Company money,  will not pay. The Company minimizes this risk by adhering
       to  a  conservative   investment   strategy  and  by  maintaining   sound
       reinsurance, credit and collection policies.



<PAGE>


       INTEREST-RATE  RISK is the risk that interest rates will change and cause
       a  decrease  in  the  value  of an  insurer's  investments.  The  Company
       mitigates  this risk by attempting to match the maturity  schedule of its
       assets with the expected payouts of its  liabilities.  To the extent that
       liabilities  come due more  quickly than assets  mature,  the Company may
       have to sell assets prior to maturity and recognize a gain or loss.

11.  CONSOLIDATION OF OPERATIONS

     During 1997, the Company  consolidated some of its operations with those of
     Mutual of Omaha. The Company incurred and expensed  approximately  $795,000
     related to severance and other consolidation expenses.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors
Companion Life Insurance Company

We have  audited the  accompanying  statement  of net assets of  Companion  Life
Separate  Account C as of  December  31,  1997,  and the related  statements  of
operations  and changes in net assets for the years ended  December 31, 1997 and
1996. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial  statements
based on our audits.  The financial  statements  are the  responsibility  of the
Company's management.

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. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1997, by correspondence with
the custodian  and brokers.  An audit also  includes  assessing  the  accounting
principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as well as
evaluating the overall  financial  statement  presentation.  We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Companion Life Separate Account
C as of December 31, 1997,  and the results of its operations and changes in its
net assets for the two years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

3.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     USE OF ESTIMATES - The  preparation  of financial  statements in conformity
     with generally accepted  accounting  principles requires management to make
     estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and
     liabilities  and  disclosures 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.

     SECURITY  VALUATION  AND RELATED  INVESTMENT  INCOME - The market  value of
     investments   is  based  on  year  end  closing   bid  prices.   Investment
     transactions  are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or
     sell is executed) and dividend income and capital gains  distributions  are
     recorded on the ex-dividend date.

     FEDERAL  INCOME TAXES - Operations of the Separate  Account are part of the
     operations of Companion and are not taxed separately;  the Separate Account
     is not taxed as a regulated investment company. Companion qualifies for the
     federal  income tax treatment  under  Subchapter L of the Internal  Revenue
     Code. Under existing federal income tax law,  investment income and capital
     gains earned by the  Separate  Account on contract  owner  reserves are not
     subject to tax.

4.   ACCOUNT CHARGES

     Companion  deducts a daily charge as  compensation  for the  mortality  and
     expense risks assumed by Companion. The nominal annual rate is a percentage
     of the net asset value of each  subaccount.  Companion  guarantees that the
     mortality and expense charges shall not increase. The percentages are:

               Series I                                                 1.25%
               Series V                                                 1.00%

     Companion may incur premium taxes relating to the policies.  Companion will
     deduct a charge for any premium taxes related to a particular policy at the
     time of purchase payments,  upon surrender,  upon death of any owner, or at
     the annuity start date.

     No charges are currently  deducted from the Separate Account for federal or
     state income taxes, since none are currently imposed.  Should such taxes be
     imposed in the future,  Companion  may make  deductions  from the  Separate
     Account to pay such taxes.

     Companion deducts a daily administrative expense charge from the net assets
     of the Separate Account. The nominal annual rate is a percentage of the net
     asset value of each subaccount as follows:

               Series I                                                 .15%
               Series V                                                 .20%

     There  is also an  annual  policy  fee of $30  that is  deducted  from  the
     accumulation  value on the last  valuation  date of each  policy year or at
     complete  surrender.  The annual  policy fee is waived if the  accumulation
     value is greater than $50,000 on the last  valuation date of the applicable
     policy year.  Companion  guarantees that the daily  administrative  expense
     charge and the annual policy fee will not increase.

     On the Series V products,  the  policyowner  has the option to purchase the
     enhanced  death  benefit.  A charge equal to the annual rate of .35% of the
     average death benefit amount will be assessed on each policy anniversary or
     pro rata upon full surrender.

     A  withdrawal  charge  will be  assessed  on  withdrawals  in  excess  of a
     percentage of the participant's  accumulation value as of the last contract
     anniversary  preceding  the  request  for  the  withdrawal.  The  allowable
     withdrawal percentage is as follows:

               Series I                                                 10%
               Series V                                                 15%

     The amount of the charge will depend upon the period of time elapsed  since
     the  purchase  payment  (first-in,  first-out  arrangement)  was  made,  as
     follows:

                                               CHARGE ON WITHDRAWAL
                                                     EXCEEDING
          PURCHASE PAYMENT YEAR                  ALLOWABLE AMOUNT

                   1                                    7%
                   2                                    6%
                   3                                    5%
                   4                                    4%
                   5                                    3%
                   6                                    2%
                   7                                    1%

     There is no charge for the first 12 transfers  between  subaccounts  of the
     Separate Account in each policy year.  However,  there is a $10 fee for the
     13th  and  each  subsequent  request  during  a  single  policy  year.  Any
     applicable  transfer  fee is  deducted  from the  amount  transferred.  All
     transfer requests made  simultaneously are treated as a single request.  No
     transfer fee is imposed for any transfer which is not at the  policyowner's
     request. The transfer fee will not increase.

ITEM 27.       NUMBER OF POLICYOWNERS

               As of December 31, 1997, there were 225 Owners of the Policies.

ITEM 28.       INDEMNIFICATION

               Insofar as  indemnification  for  liabilities  arising  under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and  controlling
persons  of  Companion  pursuant  to the  foregoing  provisions,  or  otherwise,
Companion  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  Companion  of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being  registered),  Companion 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. With respect to indemnification,  Article V, Section
8 of Companion's Bylaws provides as follows:

               The Corporation  shall indemnify any person,  made, or threatened
to be made,  a party to any  action or  proceeding  other  than one by or in the
right of the  Corporation  to procure a judgment in its favor,  whether civil or
criminal,  which any officer of the  Corporation  served in any  capacity at the
request  of the  Corporation,  by reason of the fact that he,  his  testator  or
intestate, was an officer of the Corporation,  against judgments, fines, amounts
paid in settlement and reasonable  expenses,  including attorneys' fees actually
and necessarily incurred as a result of such action or proceeding, or any appeal
therein,  if such  officer  acted,  in good  faith,  for a  purpose  which he is
reasonably  believed  to be in the best  interests  of the  Corporation  and, in
criminal actions or proceedings, in addition, had no reasonable cause to believe
that his conduct was  unlawful..  The  termination of any such civil or criminal
action  proceeding  by judgment,  settlement,  conviction or upon a plea of nolo
contendere, or its equivalent, shall not in itself create a presumption that any
such officer did not act, in good faith,  for a purpose  which he is  reasonably
believed  to be in  the  best  interests  of  the  Corporation  or  that  he had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

ITEM 29.       PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER

               (a) In addition to Registrant, Mutual of Omaha Investor Services,
Inc. is  the  Principal  Underwriter  for  policies  offered  by  Companion Life

            John L. Maginn           Director

               (c)  Mutual of Omaha  Investor  Services,  Inc.  ("MOIS")  is the
principal  underwriter of the Policies.  Commissions  payable to a broker-dealer
will be up to 7% of Purchase  Payments.  For the fiscal year ended  December 31,

Re:     Registration Statement

To Whom It May Concern:

With reference to the  Registration  Statement on Form N-4 as amended,  filed by
Companion Life Insurance  Company and Companion Life Separate Account C with the
Securities  and  Exchange   Commission   covering  individual  variable  annuity
contracts,  I have examined such documents and such laws I considered  necessary
and appropriate and on the basis of such examination, it is my opinion that:

1.      Companion Life Insurance  Company is duly organized and validly existing
        under the laws of the State of New York and has been duly  authorized to
        issue individual variable annuity contracts by the Insurance  Department
        of the State of New York.

2.      Companion  Life  Separate  Account C is a duly  authorized  and existing
        separate  account to establish  pursuant to the  provisions  of New York
        law.

3.      The individual  variable annuity contracts,  when issued as contemplated
        by said Form N-4 Registration Statement,  will constitute legal, validly
        issued and binding obligations of Companion Life Insurance Company.

I hereby  consent to the  filing of this  opinion as an Exhibit to said Form N-4
Registration  Statement  and to the  use of my name  under  the  caption  "Legal
Matters" in the Registration Statement.

Sincerely,
