RE: Kansas City Variable Annuity Separate Account
Gentlemen:
In connection with the filing of the "Rule 24f-2 Notice" with the
Securities and Exchange Commission concerning the Kansas City Life
Variable Annuity Separate Account, I have examined such records and
documents and reviewed such matters of law as I deem necessary for
this opinion. I advise you that in my opinion:
1. The Kansas City Life Variable Annuity Separate Account is
a separate account of Kansas City Life Insurance Company duly
created and validly existing pursuant to Missouri law, and it is
currently registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940.
2. The individual variable annuity contracts will be legal
and binding obligations of Kansas City Life Insurance Company in
accordance with their terms when they are issued in accordance with
the Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement and upon
compliance with applicable law.
3. The portion of the assets held in the Kansas City Variable
Annuity Separate Account equal to the reserves and other contract
liabilities with respect to the Separate Account are not chargeable
with liabilities arising out of any other business Kansas City Life
may conduct.
I consent to use of this letter, or a copy thereof, as an exhibit
to the notice filed pursuant to Rule 24f-2.
Yours very truly,
