II. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST AND SECURITIES OF THE TRUST
GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING THE SECURITIES OF THE TRUST AND THE RIGHTS OF
HOLDERS
10. Furnish a brief statement with respect to the following matters for each
class or series of securities issued by the trust:
(a) Whether the securities are of the registered or bearer type.
The Policies which are to be issued are of the registered type insofar
as all Policies are personal to the Owner, and the records concerning
the Owner are maintained by Hartford.
(b) Whether the securities are of the cumulative or distributive type.
The Policies are of the cumulative type.
(c) The rights of security holders with respect to withdrawal or
redemption.
At any time prior to the maturity date, the Policy Owner may surrender
the Policy and receive the cash surrender value, provided the Policy
has a cash surrender value.
-3-
<PAGE>
An applicant has a limited right to return his or her Policy for
cancellation. If the Policy Owner returns the Policy within 10 days
after delivery of the Policy, ten days after Hartford mails or
personally delivers a Notice of Withdrawal Right, or within 45 days
after completion of the application, whichever is latest, subject to
applicable state regulation, Hartford will return to the applicant
within 7 days thereafter, the greater of the premium paid for the
Policy less any indebtedness, or the sum of (1) the account value on
the date the returned Policy is received by Hartford or its agent and
(2) any deductions under Policy or by the funds for taxes, charges or
fees.
(d) The rights of security holders with respect to conversion, transfer,
partial redemption, and similar matters.
One partial withdrawal is allowed each Policy Year. The minimum
partial withdrawal allowed is $500.00. The maximum partial withdrawal
is the Cash Surrender Value, less $1,000.00. Hartford reserves the
right to impose a partial withdrawal charge of up to $50. The Policy
Owner may transfer a Policy's sub-account values to other sub-
accounts.
The Policy may be exchanged during the first 24 months after its issue
date for a non-variable last survivor life insurance policy on the
life of the insureds without submitting proof of insurability.
(e) If the trust is the issuer of periodic payment plan certificates, the
substance of the provisions of any indenture or agreement with respect
to lapses or defaults by security holders in making principal
payments, and with respect to reinstatement.
Because the Policy is a life insurance policy certain monthly charges
are made against the net cash value to maintain the benefits provided
by the Policy. If the Cash Surrender Value is insufficient to cover a
Deduction Amount due on a Monthly Activity Date the policy will be in
default. Hartford will grant a 61-day grace period for the payment of
the additional premium (or repayment of loan) in an amount sufficient
to cover the monthly charges due. At least 30 days prior to the end
of the grace period, Hartford will mail the Policy Owner written
notice of the amount of premium required to continue the Policy.
If the Policy terminates as provided in the grace period section and
has not been surrendered, it may be reinstated by the Policy Owner
within five (5) years after the end of the grace period subject to the
following:
(1) the Insureds alive at the end of the Grace Period are also alive
on the date of reinstatement;
(2) satisfactory evidence of insurability is submitted;
(3) any Policy loan is repaid or reinstated; and
-4-
<PAGE>
(4) the Policy Owner pays sufficient premium to (1) cover all Monthly
Deduction Amounts that are due and unpaid during the Grace Period
and (2) keep the Policy in force for three months after the date
of reinstatement.
(f) The substance of any provisions of any indenture or agreement with
respect to voting rights, together with the names of any persons other
than security holders given the right to exercise voting rights
pertaining to the trust's securities or the underlying securities and
the relationship of such persons to the trust.
The underlying securities of the Separate Account, depending on the
class of Contracts, currently are shares in the Hartford Funds:
Advisers Fund, Aggressive Growth Fund, Bond Fund, Dividend and Growth
Fund, Index Fund, International Opportunities Fund, Mortgage
Securities Fund, Stock Fund, HVA Money Market Fund; shares in the
Putnam Capital Manager Trust: PCM Diversified Income Fund, PCM Global
Asset Allocation Fund, PCM Global Growth Fund, PCM Growth and Income
Fund, PCM High Yield Fund, PCM Money Market Fund, PCM New
Opportunities Fund, PCM U.S. Government and High Quality Bond Fund,
PCM Utilities Growth and Income Fund, and PCM Voyager Fund; and shares
in the Fidelity Funds: Equity-Income Portfolio, Overseas Portfolio and
Asset Manager Portfolio.
Hartford will vote Fund shares held in the Separate Account in
accordance with instructions received from Policy Owners of the
Separate Account. Hartford will vote shares for which it has not
received instructions in the same proportion as it votes shares for
which it has received instructions. However, if the Investment
Company Act of 1940 or any regulation thereunder should be amended or
if the present interpretation thereof should change, and as a result
Hartford determines that it is permitted to vote the Fund shares in
its own right, it may elect to do so.
Hartford may, when required by state insurance regulatory authorities,
disregard voting instructions if the instructions require that the
shares be voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or
investment objective of one or more of the Investment Portfolios of
the Funds or to approve or disapprove an investment advisory policy
for the Funds. In addition, Hartford itself may disregard voting
instructions in favor of changes initiated by a Policy Owner in the
investment policy or the investment adviser of the Funds if Hartford
reasonably disapproves of such changes. A change would be disapproved
only if the proposed change is contrary to state law or prohibited by
state regulatory authorities. In the event Hartford does disregard
voting instructions, a summary of that action and the reasons for such
action will be included in the next periodic report to Policy Owners.
(g) Whether security holders must be given notice of any change in:
(1) the composition of the assets of the trust.
-5-
<PAGE>
Notice must be given of any such proposed change.
(2) the terms and conditions of the securities issued by the trust.
Notice must be given of any such proposed change.
(3) the provisions of any indenture or agreement of the trust.
Inapplicable - there is no indenture or agreement of the trust.
See answer to Item 6(b) above.
(4) the identity of the depositor, trustee or custodian.
There is no provision requiring notice to Policy Owners with
respect to any change in the identity of the Separate Account's
depositor. Hartford's obligations under the Policies, however,
cannot be transferred to any other entity without notice to and
consent of the Policy Owner.
(h) Whether the consent of security holders is required in order for
action to be taken concerning any change in:
(1) the composition of the assets of the trust.
Consent of Policy Owners may be required when substituting the
underlying securities of the Separate Account. In addition, to
substitute such securities, approval of the Securities and
Exchange Commission may be required in compliance with Section
26(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Hartford may,
however, add additional sub-accounts without the consent of
Policy Owners. Except as required by Federal or State law or
regulation, no action will be taken by Hartford which will
adversely affect the rights of Policy Owners without their
consent.
(2) the terms and conditions of the securities issued by the trust.
No change in the terms and conditions of the Policies can be made
without the consent of the Policy Owners.
(3) the provisions of any indenture or agreement of the trust.
See Item 10(g)(3) above.
-6-
<PAGE>
(4) the identity of the depositor, trustee or custodian.
There is no provision requiring consent of Policy Owners with
respect to any change in the identity of the Separate Account's
depositor. Hartford's obligations under the Policies, however,
cannot be transferred to any other entity without notice to and
consent of the Policy Owner. There is no provision requiring
consent of Policy Owners with respect to any change in the
identity of the custodian.
(i) Any other principal feature of the securities issued by the trust or
any other principal right, privilege or obligation not covered by
subdivisions (a) to (g) or by any other item in this form.
The Policy provides insurance coverage in the form of a death benefit
payable on the death of the last surviving Insured. Premiums and
death benefits for the Policy are flexible.
The Policy generally will be issued only on the lives of insureds
generally between the ages of 20 and 80 respecting both insureds. The
required initial basic face amount is $100,000. The Policies provide
for the payment of the Death Proceeds to the named beneficiary when
the last surviving Insured under the Policy dies. The Death Proceeds
payable to the beneficiary equal the Death Benefit less any
outstanding loans and any outstanding monthly deduction amount
occurring during a grace period. The Death Benefit is one of three
options: Option A provides a level death benefit equal to the Policy
face amount; Option B provides a death benefit equal to the Policy
face amount plus the account value; Option C provides a death benefit
equal to the face amount plus the sum of all premiums paid.

INFORMATION CONCERNING LOADS, FEES, CHARGES AND EXPENSES
13. (a) Furnish the following information with respect to each load, fee,
expense or charge to which (1) principal payments, (2) underlying
securities, (3) distributions, (4) cumulated or reinvested
distributions or income, and (5) redeemed or liquidated assets of the
trust's securities are subject:
(A) the nature of such load, fee, expense or charge;
(B) the amount thereof;
(C) the name of the person to whom such amounts are paid and his
relationship to the trust;
(D) the nature of the services performed by such person in
consideration for such load, fee, expense or charge.
(1) Principal payments
(A) Hartford deducts a percentage of premium for a premium processing
charge, state premium tax and federal tax charge and front-end
sales load. The premium processing charge is a 1.25% charge
deducted from each premium payment for premium collection costs
and premium and policy processing costs. The premium tax charge
is deducted as a percentage of each premium to cover premium-
based taxes assessed against Hartford. This percentage will vary
by locale depending on the tax rates in effect there and is based
on the actual tax imposed. Hartford also deducts a 1.25% charge
from each premium payment to cover the estimated cost of the
federal income tax treatment of the Policy's deferred acquisition
costs under Section 848 of the Code. The front-end sales load is
a charge deducted from each premium based on (1) the amount of
premium paid in relation to the Target Premium, (2) the policy
year in which the premium is paid, and (3) the pro-rated amount
of the premium payment attributable to the basic face amount and
to the supplemental face amount. The current and maximum front-
end sales load for premium payments attributable to the basic
face amount up to the Target Premium is 50% in the first Policy
Year, 15% in Policy Years 2 through 5, 10% in Policy Years 6
through 10, and 2% in Policy Years 11 through 20. After Policy
Year 20, the current front-end sales load is 0%, with a maximum
of 2%. The current and maximum front-end sales load for premium
payments attributable to the basic face amount in excess of the
Target Premium is 9.0% in Policy Year 1, 4% in Policy Years 2
through 10, and 2% in Policy Years 11 through 20. After Policy
Year 20, the current front-end sales load is 0%, with a maximum
of 2%. The current and maximum front-end sales load for all
premium payments attributable to the supplemental face amount is
4.0% in Policy Years 1 through 10 and 2% in Policy
-12-
<PAGE>
Years 11 through 20. After Policy Year 20, the current front-end
sales load is 0%, with a maximum of 2%.
Hartford also deducts certain charges from the account value to
provide for the Monthly Deduction Amount. These will be taken on
a pro rata basis from the fixed account and Sub-Accounts on the
Monthly Activity Date. The cost of insurance charge is to cover
Hartford's anticipated mortality costs. A charge is made for
additional benefits provided by rider, if any. A charge is made
for any special insurance class rating of an insured to
compensate Hartford for the additional mortality risk associated
with individuals in these classes. Hartford assesses a monthly
administrative charge in the amount of $7.50 per month, plus
$0.01 per month per thousand of face amount at issue, paid in
Policy Years 1 through 10. On a blended-rate basis, the charge
is guaranteed never to exceed for all Policy Years the sum of
$10.00 per month plus $0.03 per month per thousand of basic face
amount at issue and $15 per month plus $0.05 per month per
thousand of supplemental face amount at issue. In addition, in
the first five Policy Years, there is a monthly issue charge to
compensate Hartford for the up-front costs to underwrite and
issue the Policies. The Issue Charge is the sum of $20 per month
for the first five Policy Years plus $.05 per $1000 of face
amount at date of issue or unscheduled supplemental face amount
increase per month for the first five years from the date of
issue or increase. A charge will be made for mortality and
expense risks assumed by Hartford. The current and guaranteed
mortality and expense risk rate for the first ten Policy Years is
0.80%. After the tenth Policy Year, the current and maximum rate
is 0.80% on the first $100,000 of account value as determined
just prior to the Monthly Deduction. On the remaining account
value, the current Rate is 0.25% and the maximum rate is 0.40%
for account value attributable to the basic face amount and 0.50%
for account value attributable to the supplemental face amount.
