Regent 2000 -- A Survivorship Flexible Premium Variable Universal Life
Insurance Policy issued by Acacia National Life Insurance Company
Regent 2000 is a survivorship flexible premium variable universal life insurance
Policy ("Policy"), issued by Acacia National Life Insurance Company ("ANLIC"),
that pays a Death Benefit upon the Second Death. Like traditional life insurance
policies, a Regent 2000 Policy provides Death Benefits to Beneficiaries and
gives you, the Policy Owner, the opportunity to increase the Policy's value.
Unlike traditional policies, Regent 2000 lets you vary the frequency and amount
of premium payments, rather than follow a fixed premium payment schedule. It
also lets you change the level of Death Benefits as often as once each year.
A Regent 2000 Policy is different from traditional life insurance policies in
another important way: you select how Policy premiums will be invested. Although
each Policy Owner is guaranteed a minimum Death Benefit, the value of the
Policy, as well as the actual Death Benefit, will vary with the performance of
investments you select.
The Investment Options available through Regent 2000 include investment
portfolios from The Alger American Fund, Calvert Variable Series, Inc., Dreyfus
Stock Index Fund, Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust, Oppenheimer
Variable Account Funds, Strong Variable Insurance Funds, Inc., and Van Eck
Worldwide Insurance Trust. Each of these portfolios has its own investment
objective and policies. These are described in the prospectuses for each
investment portfolio which must accompany this Regent 2000 prospectus. You may
also choose to allocate premium payments to the Fixed Account managed by ANLIC.
A Regent 2000 Policy will be issued after ANLIC accepts a prospective Policy
Owner's application. Generally, an application must specify a Death Benefit no
less than $100,000. Regent 2000 Policies are available to cover individuals
between the ages of 20 and 90 at the time of purchase, although at least one of
the individuals must be no older than 85. A Regent 2000 Policy, once purchased,
may generally be canceled within 10 days after you receive it.
This Regent 2000 prospectus is designed to assist you in understanding the
opportunity and risks associated with the purchase of a Regent 2000 Policy.
Prospective Policy Owners are urged to read the prospectus carefully and retain
it for future reference.
This prospectus includes a summary of the most important features of the Regent
2000 Policy, information about ANLIC, a list of the investment portfolios to
which you may allocate premium payments, and a detailed description of the
Regent 2000 Policy. The appendix to the prospectus includes tables designed to
illustrate how values and Death Benefits may change with the investment
experience of the Investment Options.
This prospectus must be accompanied by a prospectus for each of the investment
portfolios available through Regent 2000.
Although the Regent 2000 Policy is designed to provide life insurance, a Regent
2000 Policy is considered to be a security. It is not a deposit with, an
obligation of, or guaranteed or endorsed by any banking institution, nor is it
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board,
or any other agency. The purchase of a Regent 2000 Policy involves investment
risk, including the possible loss of principal. For this reason, Regent 2000 may
not be suitable for all individuals. It may not be advantageous to purchase a
Regent 2000 Policy as a replacement for another type of life insurance or as a
way to obtain additional insurance protection if the purchaser already owns
another survivorship flexible premium variable universal life insurance policy.

SUMMARY
The following summary is intended to highlight the most important features of a
Regent 2000 Policy that you, as a prospective Policy owner, should consider. You
will find more detailed information in the main portion of the prospectus;
cross-references are provided for your convenience. As you review this Summary,
take note of the terms that appear in italics. Each italicized term is defined
in the Definitions section that begins on page 3 of this prospectus. This
summary and all other parts of this prospectus are qualified in their entirety
by the terms of the Regent 2000 Policy, which is available upon request from
ANLIC.
WHO IS THE ISSUER OF A REGENT 2000 POLICY?
ANLIC is the issuer of each Regent 2000 Policy. ANLIC enjoys a rating of A
(Excellent) from A.M. Best Company, a firm that analyzes insurance carriers. A
stock life insurance company organized in Virginia, ANLIC is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Acacia Life Insurance Company which is, in turn, a second tier
subsidiary of Ameritas Acacia Mutual Insurance Holding Company. (See the section
on Acacia National Life Insurance Company.)
WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER PURCHASING A REGENT 2000 POLICY?
The primary purpose of a Regent 2000 Policy is to provide life insurance
protection on the two Insureds named in the Policy. This means that, so long as
the Policy is in force, it will provide for:
o payment of a Death Benefit, which will never be less than the Specified
Amount the Policy owner selects. (See the section on Death Benefit Options.)
o Policy loan, Surrender and withdrawal features. (See the section on Policy
Rights.)
A Regent 2000 Policy also includes an investment component. This means that, so
long as the Policy is in force, you will be responsible for selecting the manner
in which Net Premiums will be invested. Thus, the value of a Regent 2000 Policy
will reflect your investment choices over the life of the Policy.
HOW DOES THE INVESTMENT COMPONENT OF MY REGENT 2000 POLICY WORK?
ANLIC has established Separate Account I, which is separate from all other
assets of ANLIC, as a vehicle to receive and invest premiums received from
Regent 2000 Policy owners and owners of certain other variable universal life
products offered by ANLIC. Separate Account I is divided into separate
Subaccounts. Each Subaccount invests exclusively in shares of one of the
investment portfolios available through Regent 2000. Each Policy owner may
allocate Net Premiums to one or more Subaccounts, or to ANLIC's Fixed Account in
the initial application. These allocations may be changed, without charge, by
notifying ANLIC's Home Office. The aggregate value of your interests in the
Subaccounts, the Fixed Account and any amount held in the General Account to
secure Policy debt will represent the Accumulation Value of your Regent 2000
Policy. (See the Section on Accumulation Value.)
WHAT INVESTMENT OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE REGENT 2000 POLICY?
The Investment Options available through Regent 2000 include 19 investment
portfolios, each of which is a separate series of a mutual fund from: The Alger
American Fund; Calvert Variable Series, Inc.; Dreyfus Stock Index Fund;
Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust; Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds;
Strong Variable Insurance Funds, Inc.; and Van Eck Worldwide Insurance Trust.
These portfolios are:
Alger American Growth Portfolio
Alger American MidCap Growth Portfolio

Calvert Social International Equity Portfolio

Details about the investment objectives and policies of each of the available
investment portfolios, and management fees and expenses, appear in the sections
on Investment Objectives and Policies of the Funds' Portfolios and Fund Expense
Summary. In addition to the listed portfolios, Policy Owners may also elect to
allocate Net Premiums to ANLIC's Fixed Account. (See the section on the Fixed
Account.)
HOW DOES THE LIFE INSURANCE COMPONENT OF A REGENT 2000 POLICY WORK?
A Regent 2000 Policy provides for the payment of a minimum Death Benefit upon
the Second Death. The amount of the minimum death benefit -- sometimes referred
to as the Specified Amount of your Regent 2000 Policy -- is chosen by you at the
time your Regent 2000 Policy is established. However, Death Benefit Proceeds --
the actual amount that will be paid after ANLIC receives Satisfactory Proof of
Death -- may vary over the life of your Regent 2000 Policy, depending on which
of the two available coverage options you select.
If you choose Option A, the Death Benefit payable under your Regent 2000 Policy
will be the Specified Amount of your Regent 2000 Policy OR the applicable
percentage of its Accumulation Value, whichever is greater. If you choose Option
B, the Death Benefit payable under your Regent 2000 Policy will be the Specified
Amount of your Regent 2000 Policy PLUS the Accumulation Value of your Regent
2000 Policy, or if it is higher, the applicable percentage of the Accumulation
Value on the Second Death. In either case, the applicable percentage is
established based on the Attained Age at the Second Death. (See the section on
Death Benefit Options.)
ARE THERE ANY RISKS INVOLVED IN OWNING A REGENT 2000 POLICY?
Yes. Over the life of your Regent 2000 Policy, the Subaccounts to which you
allocate your premiums will fluctuate with changes in the stock market and
overall economic factors. These fluctuations will be reflected in the
Accumulation Value of your Regent 2000 Policy and may result in loss of
principal. For this reason, the purchase of a Regent 2000 Policy may not be
suitable for all individuals. It may not be advantageous to purchase a Regent
2000 Policy to replace or augment your existing insurance arrangements. Appendix
A includes tables illustrating the impact that hypothetical market returns would
have on Accumulation Values under a Regent 2000 Policy (page A-1).
WHAT IS THE PREMIUM THAT MUST BE PAID TO KEEP A REGENT 2000 POLICY IN FORCE?
Like traditional life insurance policies, a Regent 2000 Policy requires the
payment of periodic premiums in order to keep the Policy in force. You will be
asked to establish a payment schedule before your Regent 2000 Policy becomes
effective.
The distinction between traditional life policies and a Regent 2000 Policy is
that a Regent 2000 Policy will not lapse simply because premium payments are not
made according to that payment schedule. However, a Regent 2000 Policy will
lapse, even if scheduled premium payments are made, if the Net Cash Surrender
Value of your Regent 2000 Policy falls below zero or premiums paid do not, in
the aggregate, equal the premium necessary to satisfy the Minimum Benefit or the
Guaranteed Death Benefit requirements. (See the section on Premiums.)
HOW ARE PREMIUMS PAID, PROCESSED AND CREDITED TO ME?
Your Regent 2000 Policy will be issued after a completed application is
accepted, and the initial premium payment is received, by ANLIC at its
Administrative Office. ANLIC's Administrative Office is located at 5900 "O"
Street, P.O. Box 82550, Lincoln, NE 68501. Your initial Net Premium will be
allocated on the Issue Date to the Subaccount and/or the Fixed Account according
to the selections you made in your application. If state or other applicable law
or regulation requires return of at least your premium payments should you
return the Policy pursuant to the Free-Look Privilege, your initial Net Premium
will be allocated to the Money Market Subaccount. Thirteen days after the Issue
Date, the Accumulation Value of the Policy will be allocated among the
Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account according to the instructions in your
application. You have the right to examine your Regent 2000 Policy and return it
for a refund for a limited time, even after the Issue Date. (See the section on
Issuance of a Policy.)
You may make subsequent premium payments according to your Planned Periodic
Premium schedule, although you are not required to do so. ANLIC will send
premium payment notices to you according to any schedule you select. When ANLIC
receives your premium payment at its Administrative Office, we will deduct any
applicable Percent of
REGENT 2000
8
<PAGE>
Premium Charge for Taxes and the Net Premium will be allocated to the
Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account according to your selections. ( See the
sections on Premiums and Allocations of Premiums and Accumulation Value.)
As already noted, Regent 2000 provides you considerable flexibility in
determining the frequency and amount of premium payments. This flexibility is
not, however, unlimited. You should keep certain factors in mind in determining
the payment schedule that is best suited to your needs. These include the amount
of the Minimum Premium, Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium and/or Net Policy
Funding requirement needed to keep your Regent 2000 Policy in force; maximum
premium limitations established under the Federal tax laws; and the impact that
reduced premium payments may have on the Net Cash Surrender Value of your Regent
2000 Policy. (See the Section on Premiums.)
IS THE ACCUMULATION VALUE OF MY REGENT 2000 POLICY AVAILABLE WITHOUT SURRENDER?
Yes. You may access the value of your Regent 2000 Policy in one of two ways.
First, you may obtain a loan, secured by the Accumulation Value of your Regent
2000 Policy. The maximum interest rate on any such loan is 6% annually; the
current rate is 5.5% annually. After the tenth Policy Anniversary, you may
borrow against a limited amount of the Net Cash Surrender Value of your Regent
2000 Policy at a maximum annual interest rate of 4%; the current rate for such
loans is 3.5% annually. (See the section on Loan Benefits.)
You may also access the value of your Regent 2000 Policy by making a partial
withdrawal. A partial withdrawal is not subject to Surrender Charges, but is
subject to a maximum charge not to exceed the lesser of $50 or 2% of the amount
withdrawn (currently, the partial withdrawal charge is the lesser of $25 or 2%).
(See the section on Partial Withdrawals.)
ARE THERE ANY OTHER CHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH OWNERSHIP OF A REGENT 2000 POLICY?
Certain states impose premium and other taxes in connection with insurance
policies such as Regent 2000. ANLIC may deduct up to 3% of each premium as a
Percent of Premium Charge for Taxes. Currently, 2.25% is deducted for this
purpose.
Charges are deducted against the Accumulation Value to cover the Cost of
Insurance under the Policy and to compensate ANLIC for administering each
individual Regent 2000 Policy. These charges, which are part of the Monthly
Deduction, are calculated and paid on each Monthly Activity Date. The Cost of
Insurance is calculated based on risk factors relating to the Insureds as
reflected in relevant actuarial tables. The Administrative Expense Charges are
based on your Specified Amount and the Policy duration. They may be increased
during the life of your Regent 2000 Policy, up to a maximum of $16 per month
plus $.10 per month per $1000 of Specified Amount.
For its services in administering Separate Account I and Subaccounts and as
compensation for bearing certain mortality and expense risks, ANLIC is also
entitled to receive fees. These fees are calculated daily during the first 15
years of each Regent 2000 Policy, at a combined annual rate of 0.90% of the
value of the net assets of the Separate Account I. After the 15th Policy
Anniversary Date, the combined annual rate will decrease to .45% of the daily
net assets of Separate Account I. These charges will not be deducted from the
amounts in the Fixed Account. (See the section on Daily Charges Against the
Separate Account.)
Finally, because ANLIC incurs expenses immediately upon the issuance of a Regent
2000 Policy that are recovered over a period of years, a Regent 2000 Policy that
is Surrendered on or before its 14th Policy Anniversary Date is subject to a
Surrender Charge. Additional Surrender Charges may apply if you increase the
Specified Amount of your Regent 2000 Policy. Because the Surrender Charge may be
significant upon early Surrender, you should purchase a Regent 2000 Policy only
if you intend to maintain your Regent 2000 Policy for a substantial period. (See
the section on Surrender Charge.)
Policy Owners who choose to allocate Net Premiums to one or more of the
Subaccounts will also bear a pro rata share of the management fees and expenses
paid by each of the investment portfolios in which the various Subaccounts
invest. No such management fees are assessed against Net Premiums allocated to
the Fixed Account. (See the section on Fund Expense Summary.)
WHEN DOES MY REGENT 2000 POLICY TERMINATE?
You may terminate your Regent 2000 Policy by surrendering the Policy while at
least one Insured is alive for its Net Cash Surrender Value. As noted above,
your Regent 2000 Policy will terminate if you fail to pay required premiums or
maintain sufficient Net Cash Surrender Value to cover Policy charges. (See the
sections on Surrender and Premiums.)

YEAR 2000
Like other insurance companies and their separate accounts, ANLIC and the
Separate Account I could be adversely affected if the computer systems they rely
upon do not properly process date-related information and data involving the
years 2000 and after. This issue arose because both mainframe and PC-based
computer hardware and software have traditionally used two digits to identify
the year. For example, the year 1998 is input, stored and calculated as "98."
Similarly, the year 2000 would be input, stored and calculated as "00." If
computers assume this means 1900, it could cause errors in calculations,
comparisons, and other computing functions.
Like all insurance companies, ANLIC makes extensive use of dates and date
calculations. We began a corporate-wide Year 2000(Y2K) project in mid-1997. Our
goal is to ensure that our computer systems continue to operate smoothly with no
service disruptions before, during or after the year 2000.
As of December 31, 1998, ANLIC continues to make progress on the plan to make
its computer applications and operating systems Y2K compliant. Continuous
testing and monitoring throughout 1999 will help ANLIC continue to meet our
contractual and service obligations to our customers. We expect to be fully
compliant by July 31, 1999. In addition to our internal efforts, ANLIC is
working closely with vendors and other business partners to confirm that they
too are addressing Y2K issues on a timely basis. In the event we or our service
providers, vendors, financial institutions or others with which we conduct
business, fail to be Y2K - compliant, there would be a materially adverse effect
on us.
Certain vendors and/or business partners, due to their exposure to foreign
markets, may face additional Y2K issues. Please see the Funds' prospectuses for
information on the Funds' preparedness for Y2K.
ANLIC, THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS
ACACIA NATIONAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Acacia National Life Insurance Company ("ANLIC") is a stock life insurance
company organized in the Commonwealth of Virginia. ANLIC was incorporated on
December 9, 1974. ANLIC is currently licensed to sell life insurance in 46
states, and the District of Columbia.
ANLIC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Acacia Life Insurance Company ("Acacia"),
a District of Columbia stock company. Acacia is in turn a second tier subsidiary
of Ameritas Acacia Mutual Holding Company, a Nebraska mutual insurance holding
company. The Administrative Offices of both ANLIC and Acacia Life are at 5900
"O" Street, P.O. Box 81889, Lincoln, Nebraska 68501.
On January 1, 1999, Ameritas Mutual Insurance Holding Company ("Ameritas
Mutual"), a Nebraska mutual insurance holding company and Acacia Mutual Holding
Corporation ("Acacia Mutual"), a District of Columbia mutual holding corporation
merged and became Ameritas Acacia Mutual Holding Company ("Ameritas Acacia") a
Nebraska mutual insurance holding company. Both Ameritas Acacia and Ameritas
Holding Company, an intermediate holding company, are organized under the
Nebraska Mutual Insurance Holding Company Act. Acacia Life Insurance Company, a
subsidiary of Ameritas Holding Company is regulated by the District of Columbia
Insurance Department. Ameritas Mutual and its subsidiaries had total assets at
December 31, 1998 of over $4.1 billion and Acacia Life and its subsidiaries had
total assets as of December 31, 1998 of $2.4 billion. The combined group has
total assets of over $6.5 billion.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT Acacia National Life Insurance Company Separate Account I
("Separate Account I") was established under Virginia law on January 31, 1995.
The assets of Separate Account I are held by ANLIC segregated from all of
ANLIC's other assets, are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any
other business which ANLIC may conduct, and income, gains, or losses of ANLIC.
Although the assets maintained in Separate Account I will not be charged with
any liabilities arising out of ANLIC's other business, all obligations arising
under the Policies are liabilities of ANLIC who will maintain assets in Separate
Account I of a total market value at least equal to the reserve and other
contract liabilities of Separate Account I. The Separate Account I will at all
times contain assets equal to or greater than Accumulation Values invested in
Separate Account I. Nevertheless, to the extent assets in Separate Account I
exceed ANLIC's liabilities in Separate Account I, the assets are available to
cover the liabilities of ANLIC's General Account. ANLIC may, from time to time,
withdraw assets available to cover the General Account obligations. Separate
Account I is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") as a unit investment
trust, which is a type of investment company. This does not involve any

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
Performance information for the Subaccounts of Separate Account I and the Funds
available for investment by Separate Account I may appear in advertisements,
sales literature, or reports to Policy owners or prospective purchasers. ANLIC
may also provide a hypothetical illustration of Accumulation Value, Net Cash
Surrender Value and Death Benefit based on historical investment returns of the
Funds for a sample Policy based on assumptions as to age, sex, and risk class of
each Insured, and other Policy specific assumptions.
ANLIC may also provide individualized hypothetical illustrations of Accumulation
Value, Net Cash Surrender Value and Death Benefit based on historical investment
returns of the Funds. These illustrations will reflect deductions for Fund
expenses and Policy and Separate Account I charges, including the Monthly
Deduction, Percent of Premium Charge for Taxes, and the Surrender Charge. These
hypothetical illustrations will be based on the actual historical experience of
the Funds as if the Subaccounts had been in existence and a Policy issued for
the same periods as those indicated for the Funds.
THE FUNDS
There are currently nineteen Subaccounts within the Separate Account I available
to Policy owners for new allocations. The assets of each Subaccount are invested
in shares of a corresponding portfolio of one of the following mutual funds
(collectively, the "Funds"): The Alger American Fund; Calvert Variable Series,
Inc.; Dreyfus Stock Index Fund; Neuberger Berman Advisers Management Trust;
Oppenheimer Variable Account Fund; Strong Variable Insurance Funds, Inc.; and
Van Eck Worldwide Insurance Trust. Each Fund is registered with the SEC under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end management investment company.
The assets of each portfolio of the Funds are held separate from the assets of
the other portfolios. Thus, each portfolio operates as a separate investment
portfolio, and the income or losses of one portfolio generally have no effect on
the investment performance of any other portfolio.
The investment objectives and policies of each portfolio are summarized below.
There is no assurance that any of the portfolios will achieve their stated
objectives. More detailed information, including a description of investment
objectives, policies, restrictions, expenses and risks, is in the prospectuses
for each of the Funds, which must accompany or precede this Prospectus. All
underlying fund information, including Fund prospectuses, has been provided to
ANLIC by the underlying Funds. ANLIC has not independently verified this
information. One or more of the Portfolios may employ investment techniques that
involve certain risks, including investing in non-investment grade, high risk
debt securities, entering into repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase
agreements, lending portfolio securities, hedging instruments, interest rate
swaps, engaging in "short sales against the box," investing in instruments
issued by foreign banks, entering into firm commitment agreements and investing
in warrants and restricted securities. For example, the Calvert Social Balanced
Portfolio may invest up to 20% of its assets in non-investment grade
obligations, commonly referred to as "junk bonds". Oppenheimer High Income
Fund/VA may also invest in "junk bonds". In addition, certain of the portfolios
may invest in securities of foreign issuers, such as the Calvert Variable
Series, Inc. MidCap Portfolio which may invest up to 25% of its funds in foreign
securities.
Other portfolios invest primarily in the securities markets of developing
nations. Investments of this type involve different risks than investments in
more established economies, and will be affected by greater volatility of
currency exchange rates and overall economic and political factors. Such
portfolios include the Calvert Variable Series, Inc. Social International Equity
Portfolio, Strong International Stock Fund II Portfolio and Van Eck Worldwide
Hard Assets Fund Portfolio. The Van Eck Worldwide Hard Assets Fund will also
invest at least 25% of its total assets in "Hard Assets" including precious
metals, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, gas, petroleum, petrochemicals or other
hydrocarbons, forest products, real estate and other basic non-agricultural
commodities. It may invest up to 50% of its assets in any one of these sectors.
Therefore it may be subject to greater risks and market fluctuations than other
investment companies with more diversified portfolios. Further information about
the risks associated with investments in each of the Funds and their respective
portfolios is contained in the prospectus relating to that Fund. These
prospectuses, together with this prospectus, should be read carefully and
retained.
The investments in the Funds may be managed by Fund managers which manage one or
more other mutual funds that have similar names, investment objectives, and
investment styles as the Funds. You should be aware that the Funds are likely to
differ from the other mutual funds in size, cash flow pattern, and tax matters.
Thus, the holdings and performance of the Funds can be expected to vary from
those of the other mutual funds.
REGENT 2000

<PAGE>
Each Policy owner should periodically consider the allocation among the
Subaccounts in light of current market conditions and the investment risks
attendant to investing in the Funds' various portfolios.
Separate Account I will purchase and redeem shares from the Portfolios at the
net asset value. Shares will be redeemed to the extent necessary for ANLIC to
collect charges, pay the Surrender Values, partial withdrawals, and make policy
loans or to transfer assets among Investment Options as you requested. Any
dividend or capital gain distribution received is automatically reinvested in
the corresponding Subaccount.
Since each of the Funds is designed to provide investment vehicles for variable
annuity and variable life insurance contracts of various insurance companies and
will be sold to separate accounts of other insurance companies as investment
vehicles for various types of variable life insurance policies and variable
annuity contracts, there is a possibility that a material conflict may arise
between the interests of Separate Account I and one or more of the Separate
Account is of another participating insurance company. In the event of a
material conflict, the affected insurance companies agree to take any necessary
steps, including removing its Separate Account is from the Funds, to resolve the
matter. The risks of such mixed and shared funding are described further in the
prospectuses of the Funds.

ADDITION, DELETION OR SUBSTITUTION OF INVESTMENTS
ANLIC reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to add, delete, combine or
substitute investments in Separate Account I if, in our judgment, marketing
needs, tax considerations, or investment conditions warrant. This may happen due
to a change in law or a change in a Fund's objectives or restrictions, or for
some other reason. ANLIC may operate Separate Account I as a management company
under the 1940 Act, it may be deregistered under that Act if registration is no
longer required, or it may be combined with other ANLIC separate accounts. ANLIC
may also transfer the assets of Separate Account I to another separate account.
If necessary, we will notify the SEC and/or state insurance authorities and will
obtain any required approvals before making these changes.
If any changes are made, ANLIC may, by appropriate endorsement, change the
policy to reflect the changes. In addition, ANLIC may, when permitted by law,
restrict or eliminate any voting rights of Policy Owners or other persons who
have voting rights as to Separate Account I. ANLIC will determine the basis for
making any new Subaccounts available to existing Policy Owners.
You will be notified of any material change in the investment policy of any Fund
in which you have an interest.
FIXED ACCOUNT
You may elect to allocate all or a portion of your Net Premium payments to the
Fixed Account, and you may also transfer monies between Separate Account I and
the Fixed Account. (See the section on Transfers.)
Payments allocated to the Fixed Account and transferred from Separate Account I
to the Fixed Account are placed in ANLIC's General Account. The General Account
includes all of ANLIC's assets, except those assets segregated in ANLIC's
Separate Accounts. ANLIC has the sole discretion to invest the assets of the
General Account, subject to applicable law. ANLIC bears an investment risk for
all amounts allocated or transferred to the Fixed Account, plus interest
credited thereto, less any deduction for charges and expenses. The Policy owner
bears the investment risk that the declared rate, described below, will fall to
a lower rate after the expiration of a declared rate period. Because of
exemptions and exclusionary provisions, 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 Investment
Company Act of 1940. Accordingly, neither the General Account nor any interest
in it is generally subject to the provisions of the 1933 or 1940 Act. We
understand that the staff of the SEC has not reviewed the disclosures in this
prospectus relating to the Fixed Account portion of the Policy; however, these
disclosures may be subject to generally
REGENT 2000
15
<PAGE>
applicable provisions of the federal securities laws regarding the accuracy and
completeness of statements made in prospectuses.
ANLIC guarantees that it will credit interest at a declared rate of at least
3.5%. ANLIC may, at its discretion, set a higher declared rate(s ). Each month
ANLIC will establish the declared rate for the Policies with a Policy Date or
Policy Anniversary Date in that month. Each month is assumed to have 30 days,
and each year to have 360 days for purposes of crediting interest on the Fixed
Account. The Policy owner will earn interest on the amounts transferred or
allocated to the Fixed Account at the declared rate effective for the month in
which the Policy was issued, which rate is guaranteed for the remainder of the
first Policy Year. During later Policy Years, all amounts in the Fixed Account
will earn interest at the declared rate in effect in the month of the last
Policy Anniversary. Declared interest rates may increase or decrease from
previous periods, but will not fall below 3.5%. ANLIC reserves the right to
change the declaration practice, and the period for which a declared rate will
apply.
POLICY BENEFITS
The rights and benefits under the Policy are summarized in this prospectus;
however prospectus disclosure regarding the Policy is qualified in its entirety
by the Policy itself, a copy of which is available upon request from ANLIC.
PURPOSES OF THE POLICY
The Policy is designed to provide the Policy owner with both lifetime insurance
protection and flexibility in the amount and frequency of premium payments and
with the level of life insurance proceeds payable under the Policy.
You are not required to pay scheduled premiums to keep the Policy in force, but
you may, subject to certain limitations, vary the frequency and amount of
premium payments. You also may adjust the level of Death Benefits payable under
the Policy without having to purchase a new Policy by increasing (with evidence
of insurability) or decreasing the Specified Amount. An increase in the
Specified Amount will increase both the Minimum Premium and the Guaranteed Death
Benefit Premium required. If the Specified Amount is decreased, however, the
Minimum Premium and Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium will not decrease. Thus, as
insurance needs or financial conditions change, you have the flexibility to
adjust life insurance benefits and vary premium payments.
The Death Benefit may, and the Accumulation Value will, vary with the investment
experience of the chosen Subaccounts of Separate Account I. Thus the Policy
owner benefits from any appreciation in value of the underlying assets, but
bears the investment risk of any depreciation in value. As a result, whether or
not a Policy continues in force may depend in part upon the investment
experience of the chosen Subaccounts. The failure to pay a Planned Periodic
Premium will not necessarily cause the Policy to lapse, but the Policy could
lapse even if Planned Periodic Premiums have been paid, depending upon the
investment experience of Separate Account I. If the Minimum Premium or
Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium is satisfied by Net Policy Funding, ANLIC will
keep the Policy in force during the appropriate period and provide a Death
Benefit. In certain instances, this Net Policy Funding will not, after the
payment of Monthly Deductions, generate positive Net Cash Surrender Values.
DEATH BENEFIT PROCEEDS
As long as the Policy remains in force, ANLIC will pay the Death Benefit
Proceeds of the Policy upon Satisfactory Proof of Death, according to the Death
Benefit option in effect at the time of the Second Death. The amount of the
Death Benefits payable will be determined at the end of the Valuation Period
during which the Second Death occurs. The Death Benefit Proceeds may be paid in
a lump sum or under one or more of the payment options set forth in the Policy.
(See the section on Payment Options.)
Death Benefit Proceeds will be paid to the surviving Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries you specified in the application or as subsequently changed. If
you do not choose a Beneficiary, the proceeds will be paid to you, as the Policy
owner, or to your estate.
DEATH BENEFIT OPTIONS
The Policy provides two Death Benefit options. The Policy owner selects one of
the options in the application. The Death Benefit under either option will never
be less than the current Specified Amount of the Policy as long as the Policy
remains in force. (See the section on Policy Lapse and Reinstatement.) The
minimum initial Specified Amount is $100,000. The Net Amount at Risk for Option
A will generally be less than the Net Amount at Risk for Option B. If you choose
Option A, your Cost of Insurance deduction will generally be lower than if you
choose Option B. (See the section on Charges and Deductions.) The following
graphs illustrate the differences in the two Death Benefit options.

OMITTED GRAPH ILLUSTRATES PAYOUT UNDER DEATH BENEFIT OPTION A, SPECIFICALLY BY
SHOWING THE RELATIONSHIPS OVER TIME, BETWEEN THE SPECIFIED AMOUNT AND THE

Death Benefit Option A. Pays a Death Benefit equal to the Specified Amount
or the Accumulation Value multiplied by the Death Benefit percentage (as
illustrated at Point A) whichever is greater.
Under Option A, the Death Benefit is the current Specified Amount of the Policy
or, if greater, the applicable percentage of Accumulation Value at the Second
Death. The applicable percentage is 250% for Attained Ages 40 or younger on the
Policy Anniversary Date prior to the Second Death. For Attained Ages over 40 on
that Policy Anniversary Date, the percentage declines. For example, the
percentage at Attained Age 40 is 250%, at Attained Age 50 is 185%, at Attained
Age 60 is 130%, at Attained Age 70 is 115%, at Attained Age 80 is 105%, and at
Attained Age 90 is 105%. The applicable percentage will never be less than 101%.
Accordingly, under Option A the Death Benefit will remain level at the Specified
Amount unless the applicable percentage of Accumulation Value exceeds the
current Specified Amount, in which case the amount of the Death Benefit will
vary as the Accumulation Value varies. Policy owners who prefer to have
favorable investment performance, if any, reflected in higher Accumulation
Value, rather than increased insurance coverage, generally should select Option
A.
OPTION B.
OMITTED GRAPH ILLUSTRATES PAYOUT UNDER DEATH BENEFIT OPTION B, SPECIFICALLY BY
SHOWING THE RELATIONSHIPS OVER TIME, BETWEEN THE SPECIFIED AMOUNT AND THE
ACCUMULATION VALUE.
Death Benefit Option B. Pays a Death Benefit equal to the Specified Amount
plus the Policy's Accumulation Value or the Accumulation Value multiplied
by the Death Benefit percentage, whichever is greater.
Under Option B, the Death Benefit is equal to the current Specified Amount plus
the Accumulation Value of the Policy or, if greater, the applicable percentage
of the Accumulation Value at the Second Death. The applicable percentage is the
same as under Option A: 250% for Attained Ages 40 or younger on the Policy
Anniversary Date prior to the Second Death. For Attained Ages over 40 on that
Policy Anniversary Date the percentage declines. Accordingly, under Option B the
amount of the Death Benefit will always vary as the Accumulation Value varies
(but will never be less than the Specified Amount.). Policy owners who prefer to
have favorable investment performance, if any, reflected in increased insurance
coverage, rather than higher Accumulation Values, generally should select Option
B.
CHANGE IN DEATH BENEFIT OPTION. The Death Benefit option may be changed once per
year after the first Policy Year by sending ANLIC a written request. The
effective date of such a change will be the Monthly Activity Date on or
following the date the change is approved by ANLIC. A change may have federal
tax consequences.
If the Death Benefit option is changed from Option A to Option B, the Specified
Amount after the change will equal the Specified Amount before the change less
the Accumulation Value as of the date of the change. If the Death Benefit option
is changed from Option B to Option A, the Specified Amount under Option A after
the change will equal the Death Benefit under Option B on the effective date of
change.
REGENT 2000

No charges will be imposed upon a change in Death Benefit option, nor will such
a change in and of itself result in an immediate change in the amount of a
Policy's Accumulation Value. However, a change in the Death Benefit option may
affect the Cost of Insurance because this charge varies depending on the Net
Amount at Risk. Changing from Option B to Option A generally will decrease the
Net Amount at Risk in the future, and will therefore decrease the Cost of
Insurance. Changing from Option A to Option B generally will result in an
increase in the Cost of Insurance over time because the Cost of Insurance rate
will increase with the ages of the Insureds, even though the Net Amount at Risk
will generally remain level. (See the sections on Charges and Deductions and
Federal Tax Matters.)
CHANGE IN SPECIFIED AMOUNT. Subject to certain limitations, after the first
Policy Year, a Policy owner may increase or decrease the Specified Amount of a
Policy. A change in Specified Amount affects the Net Amount at Risk, which
affects the Cost of Insurance and may have federal tax consequences. (See the
sections on Charges and Deductions and Federal Tax Matters.)
Any increase or decrease in the Specified Amount will become effective on the
Monthly Activity Date on or following the date a written request is approved by
ANLIC. The Specified Amount of a Policy may be changed only once per year and
ANLIC may limit the size of a change in a Policy Year. The Specified Amount
remaining in force after any requested decrease may not be less than $100,000.
In addition, if a decrease in the Specified Amount makes the Policy not comply
with the maximum premium limits required by federal tax law, the decrease may be
limited or the Accumulation Value may be returned to you, at your election, to
the extent necessary to meet the requirements. (See the section on Premiums.)
Increases in the Specified Amount will be allowed after the first Policy Year.
For an increase in the Specified Amount, you must submit a written supplemental
application. ANLIC may also require additional evidence of insurability.
Although an increase need not necessarily be accompanied by an additional
premium, in certain cases an additional premium will be required to put the
requested increase in effect. (See the section on Premiums upon Increases in
Specified Amount.) The minimum amount of any increase is $50,000, and an
increase cannot be made if either Insured was over age 85 on the previous Policy
Anniversary Date. An increase in the Specified Amount will also increase
Surrender Charges. An increase in the Specified Amount during the time either
the Minimum Benefit or the Guaranteed Death Benefit provision is in effect will
increase the respective premium requirements. (See the section on Charges and
Deductions.)
METHODS OF AFFECTING INSURANCE PROTECTION
You may increase or decrease the pure insurance protection provided by a Policy
- - the difference between the Death Benefit and the Accumulation Value - in
several ways as your insurance needs change. These ways include increasing or
decreasing the Specified Amount of insurance, changing the level of premium
payments, and making a partial withdrawal of the Policy's Accumulation Value.
Certain of these changes may have federal tax consequences. The consequences of
each of these methods will depend upon the individual circumstances.
DURATION OF THE POLICY
The duration of the Policy generally depends upon the Accumulation Value. The
Policy will remain in force so long as the Net Cash Surrender Value is
sufficient to pay the Monthly Deduction or if the Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed
Death Benefit provision is in effect. (See the section on Charges from
Accumulation Value.) However, when the Net Cash Surrender Value is insufficient
to pay the Monthly Deduction and the Grace Period expires without an adequate
payment by the Policy owner, the Policy will lapse and terminate without value.
(See the section on Policy Lapse and Reinstatement.)
ACCUMULATION VALUE
The Accumulation Value will reflect the investment performance of the chosen
Investment Options, the Net Premiums paid, any partial withdrawals, and the
charges assessed in connection with the Policy. A Policy owner may Surrender the
Policy at any time and receive the Policy's Net Cash Surrender Value. (See the
section on Surrenders.) There is no guaranteed minimum Accumulation Value.
Accumulation Value is determined on each Valuation Date. On the Issue Date, the
Accumulation Value will equal the portion of any Net Premium allocated to the
Investment Options, reduced by the portion of the first Monthly Deduction
allocated to the Investment Options. (See the section on Allocation of Premiums
and Accumulation Value.) Thereafter, on each Valuation Date, the Accumulation
Value of the Policy will equal:
REGENT 2000
18
<PAGE>
(1) The aggregate values belonging to the Policy in each of the
Subaccounts on the Valuation Date, determined by multiplying each
Subaccount's unit value by the number of Subaccount units you have
allocated to the Policy; plus
(2) The value of allocations to the Fixed Account; plus
(3) Any Accumulation Value impaired by Outstanding Policy Debt held in the
General Account; plus
(4) Any Net Premiums received on that Valuation Date; less
(5) Any partial withdrawal, and its charge, made on that Valuation Date;
less
(6) Any Monthly Deduction to be made on that Valuation Date; less
(7) Any federal or state income taxes charged against the Accumulation
Value
In computing the Policy's Accumulation Value on the Valuation Date, the number
of Subaccount units allocated to the Policy is determined after any transfers
among Investment Options (and deduction of transfer charges), but before any
other Policy transactions, such as receipt of Net Premiums and partial
withdrawals. Because the Accumulation Value depends on a number of variables, a
Policy's Accumulation Value cannot be predetermined.
THE UNIT VALUE. The unit value of each Subaccount reflects the investment
performance of that Subaccount. The unit value of each Subaccount is calculated
by:
(1) multiplying the net asset value per share of each Fund portfolio on
the Valuation Date times the number of shares held by that Subaccount,
before the purchase or redemption of any shares on that Valuation
Date; minu
(2) a charge for mortality and expense risk at an annual rate of .75% in
Policy Years 1-15, decreasing to .30% thereafter; minus
(3) a charge for administrative service expenses at an annual rate of
.15%; and
(4) dividing the result by the total number of units held in the
Subaccount on the Valuation Date, before the purchase or redemption of
any units on that Valuation Date.
(See the section on Daily Charges Against the Separate Account I.)
VALUATION DATE AND VALUATION PERIOD. A Valuation Date is each day on which the
New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open for trading. The Net Asset Value for
each Fund Portfolio is determined as of the close of regular trading on the
NYSE. The net investment return for each Subaccount and all transactions and
calculations with respect to the Policies as of any Valuation Date are
determined as of that time. A Valuation Period is the period between two
successive Valuation Dates, commencing at the close of the NYSE on each
Valuation Date and ending at the close of the NYSE on the next succeeding
Valuation Date.
PAYMENT OF POLICY BENEFITS
Death Benefit Proceeds under the Policy will usually be paid within seven days
after ANLIC receives Satisfactory Proof of Death. Payments may be postponed in
certain circumstances. (See the section on Postponement of Payments.) The Policy
owner may decide the form in which Death Benefit Proceeds will be paid. While at
least one Insured is alive, the Policy owner may arrange for the Death Benefit
Proceeds to be paid in a lump sum or under one or more of the optional methods
of payment described below. Changes must be in writing and will revoke all prior
elections. If no election is made, ANLIC will pay Death Benefit Proceeds or
Accumulation Value Benefits in a lump sum. When Death Benefit Proceeds are
payable in a lump sum and no election for an optional method of payment is in
force at the Second Death the Beneficiary may select one or more of the optional
methods of payment. Further, if the Policy is assigned, any amounts due to the
assignee will first be paid in one sum. The balance, if any, may be applied
under any payment option. Once payments have begun, the payment option may not
be changed.
PAYMENT OPTIONS FOR DEATH BENEFIT PROCEEDS. The minimum amount of each payment
is $100. If a payment would be less than $100, ANLIC has the right to make
payments less often so that the amount of each payment is at least $100. Once a
payment option is in effect, Death Benefit Proceeds will be transferred to
ANLIC's General Account. ANLIC may make other payment options available in the
future. For additional information concerning these options, see the Policy
itself. The following payment options are currently available:
REGENT 2000
19
<PAGE>
OPTION AI--INTEREST PAYMENT OPTION. ANLIC will hold any amount applied
under this option. Interest on the unpaid balance will be paid or credited each
month at a rate determined by ANLIC.
OPTION AII--FIXED AMOUNT PAYABLE OPTION. Each payment will be for an agreed
fixed amount. Payments continue until the amount ANLIC holds runs out.
OPTION B--FIXED PERIOD PAYMENT OPTION. Equal payments will be made for any
period selected up to 20 years.
OPTION C--LIFETIME PAYMENT OPTION. Equal monthly payments are based on the
life of a named person. Payments will continue for the lifetime of that person.
Variations provide for guaranteed payments for a period of time.
OPTION D--JOINT LIFETIME PAYMENT OPTION. Equal monthly payments are based
on the lives of two named persons. While both are living, one payment will be
made each month. When one dies, the same payment will continue for the lifetime
of the other.
As an alternative to the above payment options, Death Benefits Proceeds may be
paid in any other manner approved by ANLIC. Further, one of ANLIC's affiliates
may make payments under the above payment options. If an affiliate makes the
payment, it will do so according to the request of the Policy owner, using the
rules set out above.
POLICY RIGHTS
LOAN BENEFITS
LOAN PRIVILEGES. The Policy owner may borrow an amount up to the current Net
Cash Surrender Value less twelve times the most recent Monthly Deduction, at
regular or reduced loan rates (described below). Loans usually are funded within
seven days after receipt of a written request. The loan may be repaid at any
time while at least one Insured is living. Policy owners in certain states may
borrow 100% of the Net Cash Surrender Value after deducting Monthly Deductions
and any interest on Policy loans that will be due for the remainder of the
Policy Year. Loans may have tax consequences. (See the section on Federal Tax
Matters).
LOAN INTEREST. ANLIC charges interest to Policy owners at regular and reduced
rates. Regular loans will accrue interest on a daily basis at a rate of up to 6%
per year; currently the interest rate on regular Policy loans is 5.5%. Each year
after the tenth Policy Anniversary Date, the Policy owner may borrow a limited
amount of the Net Cash Surrender Value at a reduced interest rate. For those
loans, interest will accrue on a daily basis at a rate of up to 4% per year; the
current reduced loan rate is 3.5%. The amount available at the reduced loan rate
is (1) the Accumulation Value, minus (2) total premiums paid minus any partial
withdrawals previously taken , and minus (3) the portion of any Outstanding
Policy Debt held at a reduced loan rate. However, this amount may not exceed the
maximum loan amount described above. (See the section on Loan Privileges.) If
unpaid when due, interest will be added to the amount of the loan and bear
interest at the same rate. The Policy owner earns 3.5% interest on the
Accumulation Values held in the General Account securing the loans.
EFFECT OF POLICY LOANS. When a loan is made, Accumulation Value equal to the
amount of the loan will be transferred from the Investment Options to the
General Account as security for the loan. The Accumulation Value transferred
will be allocated from the Investment Options according to the instructions you
give when you request the loan. The minimum amount which can remain in a
Subaccount or the Fixed Account as a result of a loan is $100. If no
instructions are given, the amounts will be withdrawn in proportion to the
various Accumulation Values in the Investment Options. In any Policy Year that
loan interest is not paid when due, ANLIC will add the interest due to the
principal amount of the Policy loan on the next Policy Anniversary. This loan
interest due will be transferred from the Investment Options as set out above.
No charge will be made for these transfers. A Policy loan will permanently
affect the Accumulation Value and may permanently affect the amount of the Death
Benefits, even if the loan is repaid. Policy loans will also affect Net Policy
Funding for determining whether the Minimum Benefit and Guaranteed Death Benefit
provisions are met.
Interest earned on amounts held in the General Account will be allocated to the
Investment Options on each Policy Anniversary in the same proportion that Net
Premiums are being allocated to those Investment Options at the time. Upon
repayment of loan amounts, the portion of the repayment allocated in accordance
with the repayment of loan provision (see below) will be transferred to increase
the Accumulation Value in that Investment Option.
OUTSTANDING POLICY DEBT. The Outstanding Policy Debt equals the total of all
Policy loans and accrued interest on Policy loans. If the Outstanding Policy
Debt exceeds the Accumulation Value less any Surrender Charge and any
REGENT 2000
20
<PAGE>
Accrued Expense Charges, the Policy owner must pay the excess. ANLIC will send a
notice of the amount which must be paid. If you do not make the required payment
within the 61 days after ANLIC sends the notice, the Policy will terminate
without value ("lapse".) Should the Policy lapse while Policy loans are
outstanding, the portion of the loans attributable to earnings will become
taxable. You may lower the risk of a Policy lapsing while loans are outstanding
as a result of a reduction in the market value of investments in the Subaccounts
by investing in a diversified group of lower risk investment portfolios and/or
transferring the funds to the Fixed Account and receiving a guaranteed rate of
return. Should you experience a substantial reduction, you may need to lower
anticipated withdrawals and loans, repay loans, make additional premium
payments, or take other action to avoid Policy lapse. A lapsed Policy may later
be reinstated. (See the section on Policy Lapse and Reinstatement.)
REPAYMENT OF LOAN. Unscheduled premiums paid while a Policy loan is outstanding
are treated as repayment of the debt only if the Policy owner so requests. As a
loan is repaid, the Accumulation Value in the General Account securing the
repaid loan will be allocated among the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account in the
same proportion that Net Premiums are being allocated at the time of repayment.
SURRENDERS
At any time while at least one Insured is alive, the Policy owner may withdraw a
portion of the Accumulation Value or Surrender the Policy by sending a written
request to ANLIC. The amount available for Surrender is the Net Cash Surrender
Value at the end of the Valuation Period when the Surrender request is received
at ANLIC's Home Office. Surrenders will generally be paid within seven days of
receipt of the written request. (See the section on Postponement of Payments.)
SURRENDERS MAY HAVE TAX CONSEQUENCES. Surrenders may be subject to Surrender
Charges. (See the section on Surrender Charge.) Once a Policy is Surrendered, it
may not be reinstated. (See the section on Tax Treatment of Policy Proceeds.)
If the Policy is being Surrendered in its entirety, the Policy itself must be
returned to ANLIC along with the request. ANLIC will pay the Net Cash Surrender
Value. Coverage under the Policy will terminate as of the date of a total
Surrender. A Policy owner may elect to have the amount paid in a lump sum or
under a payment option. (See the section on Payment Options.)
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
Partial withdrawals are irrevocable. The amount of a partial withdrawal may not
be less than $500. The Net Cash Surrender Value after a partial withdrawal must
be at least $1,000 or an amount sufficient to maintain the Policy in force for
the remainder of the Policy Year.
The amount paid will be deducted from the Investment Options according to your
instructions when you request the withdrawal. However, the minimum amount
remaining in a Subaccount as a result of the allocation is $100. If no
instructions are given, the amounts will be withdrawn in proportion to the
various Accumulation Values in the Investment Options.
The Death Benefit will be reduced by the amount of any partial withdrawal and
may affect the way the Cost of Insurance is calculated and the amount of pure
insurance protection under the Policy. (See the sections on Monthly Deduction -
Cost of Insurance and Death Benefit Options--Methods of Affecting Insurance
Protection.) If Death Benefit option B is in effect, the Specified Amount will
not change, but the Accumulation Value will be reduced.
A fee which does not exceed the lesser of $50 or 2% of the amount withdrawn is
deducted from the Accumulation Value. Currently, the charge is the lesser of $25
or 2% of the amount withdrawn. (See the section on Partial Withdrawal Charge.)
Partial withdrawals will also affect Net Policy Funding for determining whether
the Minimum Benefit and Guaranteed Death Benefit provisions are met.
TRANSFERS
Accumulation Value may be transferred among the Subaccounts of Separate Account
I and to the Fixed Account as often as desired. However, you may make only one
transfer out of the Fixed Account per Policy Year. We may limit the transfer
period to the 30 days following the Policy Anniversary Date. The transfers may
be ordered in person, by mail or by telephone. The total amount transferred each
time must be at least $250, or the balance of the Subaccount, if less. The
minimum amount that may remain in a Subaccount or the Fixed Account after a
transfer is $100. The first 15 transfers per Policy Year will be permitted free
of charge. After that, a transfer charge of $10 may be imposed each
REGENT 2000
21
<PAGE>
additional time amounts are transferred. Currently, no charge is imposed for
additional transfers. This charge will be deducted pro rata from each Subaccount
(and, if applicable, the Fixed Account) in which the Policy Owner is invested.
(See the section on Transfer Charge.) Additional restrictions on transfers may
be imposed at the Fund level. Specifically, Fund managers may have the right to
refuse sales, or suspend or terminate the offering of portfolio shares, if they
determine that such action is necessary in the best interests of the portfolio's
shareholders. If a Fund manager refuses a transfer for any reason, the transfer
will not be allowed. ANLIC will not be able to process the transfer if the Fund
manager refuses. Transfers resulting from Policy loans or exercise of the
exchange privilege will not be subject to a transfer charge and will not be
counted towards the guaranteed 15 free transfers per Policy Year. ANLIC may at
any time revoke or modify the transfer privilege, including the minimum amount
transferable.
Transfers out of the Fixed Account, unless part of the dollar cost averaging
systematic program described below, are limited to one per Policy Year. We may
limit the transfer period to the 30 days following the Policy Anniversary Date,
as noted below. Transfers out of the Fixed Account are limited to the greater of
(1) 25% of the Fixed Account attributable to the Policy; (2) the largest
transfer made by the Policy owner out of the Fixed Account during the last 13
months; or (3) $1,000. This provision is not available while dollar cost
averaging from the Fixed Account.
The privilege to initiate transactions by telephone will be made available to
Policy owners automatically. The registered representative designated on the
application will have the authority to initiate telephone transfers. Policy
owners who do not wish to authorize ANLIC to accept telephone transactions from
their registered representative must so specify on the application. ANLIC will
employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by
telephone are genuine, and if it does not, ANLIC may be liable for any losses
due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. The procedures ANLIC follows for
transactions initiated by telephone include, but are not limited to, requiring
the Policy owner to provide the Policy number at the time of giving transfer
instructions; ANLIC's tape recording of all telephone transfer instructions; and
ANLIC providing written confirmation of telephone transactions.
SYSTEMATIC PROGRAMS
ANLIC may offer systematic programs as discussed below. These programs will be
subject to administrative guidelines ANLIC may establish from time to time.
Transfers of Accumulation Value made pursuant to these programs will be counted
in determining whether any transfer fee may apply. Lower minimum amounts may be
allowed to transfer as part of a systematic program. No other separate fee is
assessed when one of these options is chosen. All other normal transfer
restrictions, as described above, also apply.
You can request participation in the available programs when purchasing the
Policy or at a later date. You can change the allocation percentage or
discontinue any program by sending written notice or calling the Home Office.
Other scheduled programs may be made available. ANLIC reserves the right to
modify, suspend or terminate such programs at any time. Use of systematic
programs may be advantageous, and does not guarantee success.
PORTFOLIO REBALANCING. Under the Portfolio Rebalancing program, you can instruct
ANLIC to reallocate the Accumulation Value among the Subaccounts (but not the
Fixed Account) on a systematic basis according to Your specified allocation
instructions.
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING. Under the Dollar Cost Averaging program, you can instruct
ANLIC to automatically transfer, on a systematic basis, a predetermined amount
or specified percentage from the Fixed Account or the Money Market Subaccount to
any other Subaccount(s). Dollar cost averaging is permitted from the Fixed
Account if each monthly transfer is no more than 1/36th of the value of the
Fixed Account at the time dollar cost averaging is established.
EARNINGS SWEEP. This program permits systematic redistribution of earnings among
Investment Options.
FREE-LOOK PRIVILEGE
You may cancel the Policy within 10 days after you receive it, within 10 days
after ANLIC delivers a notice of your right of cancellation, or within 45 days
of completing Part I of the application, whichever is later. When allowed by
state law, the amount of the refund is the net premiums allocated to the
Investment Options, adjusted by investment gains and losses, plus the sum of all
charges deducted from premiums paid. Otherwise, the amount of the refund will
equal the gross premiums paid. To cancel the Policy, you should mail or deliver
it to the selling agent, or to ANLIC at its Administrative Office. A refund of
premiums paid by check may be delayed until the check has cleared your bank.
(See the section on Postponement of Payments.)

PAYMENT AND ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS
ISSUANCE OF A POLICY
Individuals wishing to purchase a Policy must complete an application and submit
it to ANLIC's Administrative Office ( 5900 "O" Street, P.O. Box 82550, Lincoln,
Nebraska 68501). A Policy will generally be issued only to individuals between
the ages of 20 and 90 at the time of purchase, although at least one of the
individuals must be no older than 85, and both of whom supply satisfactory
evidence of insurability to ANLIC. Acceptance is subject to ANLIC's underwriting
rules, and ANLIC reserves the right to reject an application for any reason.
The Policy Date is the effective date for all coverage in the original
application. The Policy Date is used to determine Policy Anniversary Dates,
Policy Years and Policy Months. The Issue Date is the date that all financial,
contractual and administrative requirements have been met and processed for the
Policy. The Policy Date and the Issue Date will be the same unless: (1) an
earlier Policy Date is specifically requested, or (2) additional premiums or
application amendments are needed. When there are additional requirements before
issue (see below) the Policy Date will be the date the Policy is sent for
delivery and the Issue Date will be the date the requirements are met.
When all required premiums and application amendments have been received by
ANLIC in its administrative Office, the Issue Date will be the date the Policy
is mailed to you or sent to the agent for delivery to you. When application
amendments or additional premiums need to be obtained upon delivery of the
Policy, the Issue Date will be when the Policy receipt and federal funds (monies
of member banks within the Federal Reserve System which are held on deposit at a
Federal Reserve Bank) are received and available to ANLIC, and the application
amendments are received and reviewed in ANLIC's Administrative Office. Your
initial Net Premium will be allocated on the Issue Date to the Subaccounts
and/or the Fixed Account according to the selections you made in your
application. When state or other applicable law or regulation requires return of
at least your premium payments if you return the Policy under the free-look
privilege, your initial Net Premium will be allocated to the Money Market
Subaccount. Then, thirteen days after the Issue Date, the Accumulation Value of
the Policy will be allocated among the Subaccounts and/or Fixed Account
according to the instructions in your application.
Subject to approval, a Policy may be backdated, but the Policy Date may not be
more than six months prior to the date of the application. Backdating can be
advantageous if a lower Issue Age for either Insured results in lower Cost of
Insurance Rates. If a Policy is backdated, the minimum initial premium required
will include sufficient premium to cover the backdating period. Monthly
deductions will be made for the period the Policy Date is backdated.
Interim conditional insurance coverage may be issued prior to the Policy Date,
provided that certain conditions are met, upon the completion of an application
and the payment of the required premium at the time of the application. The
amount of the interim coverage is limited to the smaller of (1) the amount of
insurance applied for, or (2) $250,000. Premium will not be accepted with
applications for coverage in amounts of $1,000,000 or more.
PREMIUMS
No insurance will take effect before the initial premium payment is received by
ANLIC in federal funds. The initial premium payment must be at least equal to
the monthly Minimum Premium times one more than the number of months between the
Policy Date and the Issue Date. Subsequent premiums are payable at ANLIC's Home
Office. A Policy owner has flexibility in determining the frequency and amount
of premiums. However, unless you have paid sufficient premiums to pay the
Monthly Deduction and Percent of Premium Charge for Taxes, the Policy may have a
zero Net Cash Surrender Value and lapse. Net Policy Funding, if adequate, may
satisfy Minimum Premium and/or Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium requirements.
(See the section on Policy Benefits, Purposes of the Policy.)
PLANNED PERIODIC PREMIUMS. At the time the Policy is issued you may determine a
Planned Periodic Premium schedule that provides for the payment of level
premiums at selected intervals. You may want to consider setting the Planned
Periodic Premium no lower than the Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium to assure
proper funding of the Guaranteed Death Benefit. You are not required to pay
premiums according to this schedule. You have considerable flexibility to alter
the amount and frequency of premiums paid. ANLIC reserves the right to limit the
number and amount of additional or unscheduled premium payments.
You may also change the frequency and amount of Planned Periodic Premiums by
sending a written request to the Home Office, although ANLIC reserves the right
to limit any increase. Premium payment notices will be sent annually,
semi-annually or quarterly, depending upon the frequency of the Planned Periodic
Premiums. Payment of the Planned Periodic Premiums does not guarantee that the
Policy remains in force unless the Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed Death
REGENT 2000
23
<PAGE>
Benefit provision is in effect. Instead, the duration of the Policy depends upon
the Policy's Net Cash Surrender Value. (See the section on Duration of the
Policy.) Unless the Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed Death Benefit provision is in
effect, even if Planned Periodic Premiums are paid, the Policy will lapse any
time the Net Cash Surrender Value is insufficient to pay the Monthly Deduction,
and the Grace Period expires without a sufficient payment. (See the section on
Policy Lapse and Reinstatement.)
PREMIUM LIMITS. ANLIC's current minimum premium limit is $45, $15 if paid by
automatic bank draft. ANLIC currently has no maximum premium limit, other than
the current maximum premium limits established by federal tax laws. ANLIC
reserves the right to change any premium limit. In no event may the total of all
premiums paid, both planned and unscheduled, exceed the current maximum premium
limits established by federal tax laws. (See the section on Tax Status of the
Policy.)
If at any time a premium is paid which would result in total premiums exceeding
the current maximum premium limits, ANLIC will only accept that portion of the
premium which will make total premiums equal the maximum. Any part of the
premium in excess of that amount will be returned or applied as otherwise agreed
and no further premiums will be accepted until allowed by the current maximum
premium limits allowed by law. ANLIC may require additional evidence of
insurability if any premium payment would result in an increase in the Policy's
Net Amount at Risk on the date the premium is received.
PREMIUMS UPON INCREASES IN SPECIFIED AMOUNT. Depending upon the Accumulation
Value of the Policy at the time of an increase in the Specified Amount of the
Policy and the amount of the increase requested by the Policy owner, an
additional premium payment may be required. ANLIC will notify you of any premium
required to fund the increase, which premium must be made in a single payment.
The Accumulation Value of the Policy will be immediately increased by the amount
of the payment, less the applicable Percent of Premium Charge for Taxes.
ALLOCATION OF PREMIUMS AND ACCUMULATION VALUE
ALLOCATION OF NET PREMIUMS. In the application for a Policy, the Policy owner
allocates Net Premiums to one or more Subaccounts and/or to the Fixed Account.
Allocations must be whole number percentages and must total 100%. The allocation
of future Net Premiums may be changed without charge by providing proper
notification to the Home Office in writing or by telephone. If there is any
Outstanding Policy Debt at the time of a payment, ANLIC will treat the payment
as a premium payment unless you instruct otherwise by proper written notice.
On the Issue Date, the initial Net Premium will be allocated to the Investment
Options you selected. When state or other applicable law or regulation requires
return of at least your premium payments if you return the Policy under the
free-look privilege, the initial Net Premium will be allocated to the Money
Market Subaccount for 13 days. Thereafter, the Accumulation Value will be
reallocated to the Investment Options you selected. Premium payments received by
ANLIC prior to the Issue Date are held in the General Account until the Issue
Date and are credited with interest at a rate determined by ANLIC for the period
from the date the payment has been converted into federal funds and is available
to ANLIC. In no event will interest be credited prior to the Policy Date.
The Accumulation Value of the Subaccounts will vary with the investment
performance of these Subaccounts and you, as the Policy owner, will bear the
entire investment risk. This will affect the Policy's Accumulation Value, and
may affect the Death Benefit as well. You should periodically review your
allocations of premiums and values in light of market conditions and overall
financial planning requirements.
POLICY LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT
LAPSE. Unlike conventional life insurance policies, the failure to make a
Planned Periodic Premium payment will not itself cause the Policy to lapse.
Lapse will occur when the Net Cash Surrender Value is insufficient to cover the
Monthly Deduction and a Grace Period expires without a sufficient payment,
unless the Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed Death Benefit provision is in effect.
The Grace Period is 61 days from the date ANLIC mails a notice that the Grace
Period has begun. ANLIC will notify you at the beginning of the Grace Period by
mail addressed to your last known address on file with ANLIC.
The notice will specify the premium required to keep the Policy in force. The
required premium will equal the lesser of (1) Monthly Deductions plus Percent of
Premium Charge for Taxes for the three Policy Months after commencement
REGENT 2000
24
<PAGE>
of the Grace Period, plus projected loan interest that would accrue over that
period, or (2) the premium required under the Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed
Death Benefit provisions, if applicable, to keep the Policy in effect for three
months from the commencement of the Grace Period. Failure to pay the required
premium within the Grace Period will result in lapse of the Policy. If the
Second Death occurs during the Grace Period, any overdue Monthly Deductions and
Outstanding Policy Debt will be deducted from the Death Benefit Proceeds. (See
the section on Charges and Deductions.)
REINSTATEMENT. A lapsed Policy may be reinstated any time within three years
(five years in Missouri) after the beginning of the Grace Period, provided both
Insureds are living. We will reinstate your Policy based on the rating classes
of the Insureds at the time of the reinstatement.
Reinstatement is subject to the following:
(1) Evidence of insurability of both Insureds satisfactory to ANLIC
(including evidence of insurability of any person covered by a rider
to reinstate the rider);
(2) Any Outstanding Policy Debt on the date of lapse will be reinstated
with interest due and accrued;
(3) The Policy cannot be reinstated if it has been Surrendered for its
full Net Cash Surrender Value;
(4) The minimum premium required at reinstatement is the greater of:
(a) the amount necessary to raise the Net Cash Surrender Value as of
the date of reinstatement to equal to or greater than zero; or
(b) three times the current Monthly Deduction.
The amount of Accumulation Value on the date of reinstatement will equal:
(1) the amount of the Net Cash Surrender Value on the date of lapse,
increased by
(2) the premium paid at reinstatement, less
(3) the Percent of Premium Charge for Taxes , plus
(4) that part of the Surrender Charge that would apply if the Policy were
Surrendered on the date of reinstatement.
The last addition to the Accumulation Value is designed to avoid duplicate
Surrender Charges. The original Policy Date, and the dates of increases in the
Specified Amount (if applicable), will be used for purposes of calculating the
Surrender Charge. If any Outstanding Policy Debt is reinstated, that debt will
be held in ANLIC's General Account. Accumulation Value calculations will then
proceed as described under the section on Accumulation Value.
The effective date of reinstatement will be the first Monthly Activity Date on
or next following the date of approval by ANLIC of the application for
reinstatement.
CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
Charges will be deducted in connection with the Policy to compensate ANLIC for:
(1) providing the insurance benefits set forth in the Policy and any optional
insurance benefits added by rider; (2) administering the Policy and payment of
applicable taxes; (3) assuming certain risks in connection with the Policy; and
(4) incurring expenses in distributing the Policy. The nature and amount of
these charges are described more fully below.
DEDUCTIONS FROM PREMIUM PAYMENTS
PERCENT OF PREMIUM CHARGE FOR TAXES. A deduction of up to 3% of the premium is
made from each premium payment; currently the charge is 2.25%. The deduction is
intended to partially offset the premium taxes imposed by the states and their
subdivisions, and to help defray the tax cost due to capitalizing certain policy
acquisition expenses as required under applicable federal tax laws. (See the
section on Federal Tax Matters .) ANLIC does not expect to derive a profit from
the Percent of Premium Charge for Taxes.
CHARGES FROM ACCUMULATION VALUE
MONTHLY DEDUCTION. Charges will be deducted as of the Policy Date and on each
Monthly Activity Date thereafter from the Accumulation Value of the Policy to
compensate ANLIC for administrative expenses and insurance provided. These
charges will be allocated from the Investment Options in accordance with your
instructions. If no instructions are given the charges will be allocated prorata
among the Investment Options. Each of these charges is described in more detail
below.
REGENT 2000
25
<PAGE>
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE. To compensate ANLIC for the ordinary
administrative expenses expected to be incurred in connection with a Policy, the
Monthly Deduction includes a level per policy charge plus a charge per $1000 of
Specified Amount. For Specified Amounts between $100,000 and $999,999, the
charge is currently $16 per month in Policy Years 1-5 and $8 per month
thereafter; for Specified Amounts between $1,000,000 and $4,999,999, the charge
is currently $8 per month in Policy Years 1-5 and $4 per month thereafter;
currently there is no charge for Specified Amounts $5,000,000 or greater. In
addition, for all Specified Amounts there currently is a charge of $.05 per
month per $1000 of Specified Amount in years 1-5. It is anticipated that charge
will reduce to $0 in year 6. The Administrative Expense Charge is levied
throughout the life of the Policy and is guaranteed not to increase above $16
per month plus $.05 per month per $1000 of Specified Amount. ANLIC does not
expect to make any profit from the Administrative Expense Charge.
COST OF INSURANCE. Because the Cost of Insurance depends upon several variables,
the cost for each Policy Month can vary from month to month. ANLIC will
determine the monthly Cost of Insurance by multiplying the applicable Cost of
Insurance Rate by the Net Amount at Risk for each Policy Month.
COST OF INSURANCE RATE. The Annual Cost of Insurance Rates are based on the
Issue Age, sex and risk class of each Insured and the Policy duration. The rates
will vary depending upon tobacco use and other risk factors. The rates will be
based on ANLIC's expectations of future experience with regard to mortality,
interest, persistency, and expenses, but will not exceed the Schedule of
Guaranteed Annual Cost of Insurance Rates shown in the Policy. The guaranteed
rates for standard rating classes are calculated from the 1980 Commissioners
Standard Ordinary Smoker and Non-Smoker, Male and Female Mortality Tables. The
guaranteed rates for the table-rated substandard Insureds are based on a
multiple (shown in the schedule pages of the Policy) of the above rates.
One-half the amount of any Flat Extra Rating is added to the Cost of Insurance
Rate and thus will be deducted as part of the Monthly Deduction on each Monthly
Activity Date. Any change in the Cost of Insurance Rates will apply to all
Insureds of the same age, sex, risk class and whose Policies have been in effect
for the same length of time
The Cost of Insurance Rates, Surrender Charges, and payment options for Policies
issued in Montana, and perhaps other states or in connection with certain
employee benefit arrangements, are issued on a sex-neutral (unisex) basis. The
unisex rates will be higher than those applicable to females and lower than
those applicable to males.
The actual charges made during the Policy year will be shown in the annual
report delivered to Policy owners.
RATING CLASS. The rating class of each Insured will affect the Cost of Insurance
Rate. ANLIC currently places Insureds into both standard rating classes and
substandard rating classes that involve a higher mortality risk. In an otherwise
identical Policy, Insureds in the standard rating class will have a lower Cost
of Insurance Rate than when either or both Insureds are in a rating class with
higher mortality risks.
SURRENDER CHARGE
If a Policy is Surrendered on or before the 14th Policy Anniversary Date, ANLIC
will assess a Surrender Charge as shown in the schedule pages of the Policy. The
initial Surrender Charge is calculated based on the Issue Age, sex and risk
class of each Insured, and the Specified Amount of the Policy. The Surrender
Charge, if applicable, will be applied according to the following schedule.
Because the Surrender Charge may be significant upon early Surrender,
prospective Policy owners should purchase a Policy only if they do not intend to
Surrender the Policy for a substantial period.
The maximum Surrender Charge on a Policy we issue is $60 per $1,000 of Specified
Amount.

No Surrender Charge will be assessed on decreases in the Specified Amount of the
Policy or partial withdrawals of Accumulation Value. ANLIC will, however,
require additional Surrender Charges due to increases in Specified Amount. The
initial Surrender Charge applicable to the increase in the Specified Amount will
equal the initial Surrender Charge for the original Specified Amount, multiplied
by the ratio of the increase in Specified Amount to the original Specified
Amount. Surrender Charges on increases in Specified Amount will be applied with
respect to Surrenders within 14 years of the date of the increase according to
the same grading schedule as for the original Specified Amount.
TRANSFER CHARGE. Currently there is no charge for transfers among the investment
options in excess of fifteen per Policy Year. A charge of $10 (guaranteed not to
increase) for each transfer in excess of 15 may be imposed to compensate ANLIC
for the costs of processing the transfer. Since the charge reimburses ANLIC only
for the cost of processing the transfer, ANLIC does not expect to make any
profit from the transfer charge. This charge will be deducted pro rata from each
Subaccount (and, if applicable, the Fixed Account) in which the Policy owner is
invested. The transfer charge will not be imposed on transfers that occur as a
result of Policy loans or the exercise of exchange rights.
PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL CHARGE. A charge will be imposed for each partial withdrawal.
This charge will compensate ANLIC for the administrative costs of processing the
requested payment and in making necessary calculations for any reductions in
Specified Amount which may be required because of the partial withdrawal. This
charge is currently the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount withdrawn (guaranteed
not to be greater than the lesser of $50 or 2% of the amount withdrawn). No
Surrender Charge is assessed on a partial withdrawal and a partial withdrawal
charge is not assessed when a Policy is Surrendered.
DAILY CHARGES AGAINST THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT
A daily Mortality and Expense Risk Charge will be deducted from the value of the
net assets of Separate Account I to compensate ANLIC for mortality and expense
risks assumed in connection with the Policy. This daily charge from Separate
Account I is at the rate of 0.002050% (equivalent to an annual rate of .75%) for
Policy Years 1-15 and .000820% (equivalent to an annual rate of .30%) The daily
charge will be deducted from the net asset value of Separate Account I, and
therefore the Subaccounts, on each Valuation Date. Where the previous day or
days was not a Valuation Date, the deduction on the Valuation Date will be the
applicable daily rate multiplied by the number of days since the last Valuation
Date. No Mortality and Expense Risk Charges will be deducted from the amounts in
the Fixed Account.
ANLIC believes that this level of charge is within the range of industry
practice for comparable survivorship flexible premium variable universal life
policies. The mortality risk assumed by ANLIC is that Insureds may live for a
shorter time than calculated, and that the aggregate amount of Death Benefits
paid will be greater than initially estimated. The expense risk assumed is that
expenses incurred in issuing and administering the Policies will exceed the
administrative charges provided in the Policies.
An Asset-Based Administrative Expense Charge will also be deducted from the
value of the net assets of Separate Account I on a daily basis. This charge is
applied at a rate of 0.000409% (equivalent to .15% annually). No Asset-Based
Administrative Expense Charge will be deducted from the amounts in the Fixed
Account.
FUND EXPENSE SUMMARY
In addition to the charges against Separate Account I described just above,
management fees and expenses will be assessed by Alger, Calvert, Dreyfus,
Neuberger Berman, Oppenheimer, Strong and Van Eck against the amounts invested
in the various portfolios. No portfolio fees will be assessed against amounts
placed in the Fixed Account.
The information shown below relating to the Funds was provided to ANLIC by the
Funds and ANLIC has not independently verified such information. Each of the
Funds is managed by an investment advisory organization that
REGENT 2000

ANLIC may receive administrative fees from the investment advisers of certain
Funds. ANLIC currently does not assess a separate charge against the Separate
Account I or the Fixed Account for any federal, state or local income taxes.
ANLIC may, however, make such a charge in the future if income or gains within
the Separate Account I will incur any federal, or any significant state or local
income tax liability, or if the federal, state or local tax treatment of ANLIC
changes.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
THE CONTRACT. The Policy, the application, any supplemental applications, and
any riders, amendments or endorsements make up the entire contract. Only the
President, Vice President, Secretary or Assistant Secretary can modify the
Policy. Any changes must be made in writing, and approved by ANLIC. No agent has
the authority to alter or modify any of the terms, conditions or agreements of
the Policy or to waive any of its provisions. The rights and benefits under the
Policy are summarized in this prospectus; however prospectus disclosure
regarding the Policy is qualified in its entirety by the Policy itself, a copy
of which is available upon request from ANLIC.
CONTROL OF POLICY. The Policy owner is as shown in the application or subsequent
written endorsement. Subject to the rights of any irrevocable Beneficiary and
any assignee of record, all rights, options, and privileges belong to the Policy
owner, if living; otherwise to any successor-owner or owners, if living;
otherwise to the estate of the last Policy owner to die.
BENEFICIARY. Policy owners may name both primary and contingent Beneficiaries in
the application. Payments will be shared equally among Beneficiaries of the same
class unless otherwise stated. If a Beneficiary dies before the Second Death,
payments will be made to any surviving Beneficiaries of the same class;
otherwise to any Beneficiaries of the next class; otherwise to the Policy owner;
otherwise to the estate of the Policy owner.
CHANGE OF BENEFICIARY The Policy owner may change the Beneficiary by written
request at any time while at least one Insured is alive unless otherwise
provided in the previous designation of Beneficiary. The change will take effect
as of the date the change is recorded at the Home Office. ANLIC will not be
liable for any payment made or action taken before the change is recorded.
CHANGE OF POLICY OWNER OR ASSIGNMENT. In order to change the Policy owner of the
Policy or assign Policy rights, an assignment of the Policy must be made in
writing and filed with ANLIC at its Home Office. Any such assignment is subject
to Outstanding Policy Debt. The change will take effect as of the date the
change is recorded at the Home Office, and ANLIC will not be liable for any
payment made or action taken before the change is recorded. Payment of Death
Benefit Proceeds is subject to the rights of any assignee of record. A
collateral assignment is not a change of ownership.
PAYMENT OF PROCEEDS. The Death Benefit Proceeds are subject first to any debt to
ANLIC and then to the interest of any assignee of record. The balance of any
Death Benefit Proceeds shall be paid in one sum to the designated beneficiary
unless an Optional Method of Payment is selected. If no Beneficiary survives the
Second Death, the Death Benefit Proceeds shall be paid in one sum to the Policy
owner, if living; otherwise to any successor-owner, if living; otherwise to the
Policy owner's estate. Any proceeds payable upon Surrender shall be paid in one
sum unless an Optional Method of Payment is elected.
INCONTESTABILITY. ANLIC cannot contest the Policy or reinstated Policy while at
least one Insured is alive after it has been in force for two years from the
Policy Date (or reinstatement effective date). After the Policy Date, ANLIC
cannot contest an increase in the Specified Amount or addition of a rider while
at least one Insured is alive, after such increase or addition has been in force
for two years from its effective date. However, this two year provision shall
not apply to riders with their own contestability provision. We may require
proof prior to the end of the appropriate contestability period that both
Insureds are living.
MISSTATEMENT OF AGE AND SEX. If the age or sex of either Insured or any person
insured by rider has been misstated, the amount of the Death Benefit and any
added riders provided will be those that would be purchased by the most recent
deduction for the Cost of Insurance and the cost of any additional riders at the
correct age and sex of the Insureds. The Death Benefit Proceeds will be adjusted
correspondingly.
REGENT 2000
29
<PAGE>
SUICIDE. The Policy does not cover suicide within two years of the Policy Date
unless otherwise provided by a state's Insurance law. If either Insured, while
sane or insane, commits suicide within two years after the Policy Date, ANLIC
will pay only the premiums received less any partial withdrawals, the cost for
riders and any outstanding Policy debt. If either Insured, while sane or insane,
commits suicide within two years after the effective date of any increase in the
Specified Amount, ANLIC's liability with respect to such increase will only be
its total cost of insurance applicable to the increase. The laws of Missouri
provide that death by suicide at any time is covered by the Policy, and further
that suicide by an insane person may be considered an accidental death.
POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS. Payment of any amount upon Surrender, partial
withdrawal, Policy loans, benefits payable at the Second Death, and transfers
may be postponed whenever: (1) the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is closed
other than customary weekend and holiday closings, or trading on the NYSE is
restricted as determined by the SEC; (2) the SEC by order permits postponement
for the protection of Policy owners; (3) an emergency exists, as determined by
the SEC, as a result of which disposal of securities is not reasonably
practicable or it is not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the
Separate Account I's net assets; or (4) Surrenders, loans or partial withdrawals
from the Fixed Account may be deferred for up to 6 months from the date of
written request. Payments under the Policy of any amounts derived from premiums
paid by check may be delayed until such time as the check has cleared the Policy
owner's bank.
REPORTS AND RECORDS. ANLIC will maintain all records relating to the Separate
Account I and will mail to the Policy owner, at the last known address of
record, within 30 days after each Policy Anniversary, an annual report which
shows the current Accumulation Value, Net Cash Surrender Value, Death Benefit,
premiums paid, Outstanding Policy Debt and other information. Quarterly
statements are also mailed detailing Policy activity during the calendar
quarter. Instead of receiving an immediate confirmation of transactions made
pursuant to some types of periodic payment plan (such as a dollar cost averaging
program, or payment made by automatic bank draft or salary reduction
arrangement), the Policy owner may receive confirmation of such transactions in
their quarterly statements. The Policy owner should review the information in
these statements carefully. All errors or corrections must be reported to ANLIC
immediately to assure proper crediting to the Policy. ANLIC will assume all
transactions are accurately reported on quarterly statements unless ANLIC is
notified otherwise within 30 days after receipt of the statement. The Policy
owner will also be sent a periodic report for the Funds and a list of the
portfolio securities held in each portfolio of the Funds.
ADDITIONAL INSURANCE BENEFITS (RIDERS.) Subject to certain requirements, one or
more of the following additional insurance benefits may be added to a Policy by
rider. All riders are not available in all states. The cost, if any, of
additional insurance benefits will be deducted as part of the Monthly Deduction.
ACCELERATED BENEFIT RIDER FOR TERMINAL ILLNESS (LIVING BENEFIT RIDER.)
Upon satisfactory Proof of Death of one Insured, and satisfactory proof
of terminal illness of the last surviving Insured after the two-year
contestable period, (no waiting period in certain states) ANLIC will
accelerate the payment of up to 50% of the lowest scheduled Death
Benefit as provided by eligible coverages, less an amount up to two
guideline level premiums.
Future premium allocations after the payment of the benefit must be
allocated to the Fixed Account. Payment will not be made for amounts
less than $4,000 or more than $250,000 on all policies issued by ANLIC
or its affiliates that provide coverage on the surviving Insured. ANLIC
may charge the lesser of 2% of the benefit or $50 as an expense charge
to cover the costs of administration.
Satisfactory proof of terminal illness of the last surviving Insured
must include a written statement from a licensed physician who is not
related to the Insured or the Policy owner stating that the Insured has
a non-correctable medical condition that, with a reasonable degree of
medical certainty, will result in the death of the Insured in less than
12 months (6 months in certain states) from the date of the physician's
statement. Further, the condition must first be diagnosed while the
Policy is in force.
The accelerated benefit first will be used to repay any Outstanding
Policy Debt, and will also affect future loans, partial withdrawals, and
Surrenders. The accelerated benefit will be treated as a lien against
the Policy Death Benefit and will thus reduce the Death Benefit
Proceeds. Interest on the lien will be charged at the Policy loan
interest rate. There is no extra premium for this rider.

ESTATE PROTECTION RIDER. This rider provides a specified amount of
insurance to the Beneficiary upon receipt of Satisfactory Proof of Death
of both Insureds during the first four Policy Years.
FIRST-TO-DIE TERM RIDER. This rider provides a specified amount of

Death of either of the two Insureds.
SECOND-TO-DIE TERM RIDER. This rider provides a specified amount of

Death of both Insureds.
TERM RIDER FOR COVERED INSURED. This rider provides a specified amount
of insurance to the Beneficiary upon receipt of Satisfactory Proof of
Death of the rider Insured, as identified. The rider may be purchased on
either Insured or an individual other than the Insureds.
TOTAL DISABILITY RIDER. This rider provides for the payment by ANLIC of
a disability benefit in the form of premiums while the Insured is
disabled. The benefit amount may be chosen by the Policy owner at the
issue of the rider. In addition, while the Insured is totally disabled,
the Cost of Insurance for the rider will not be deducted from
Accumulation Value. The rider may be purchased on either or both
Insureds.
POLICY SPLIT OPTION. This rider allows the Policy to be split into two
individual policies, subject to evidence of insurability on both
Insureds.
DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICIES
The principal underwriter for the Policies is The Advisors Group, Inc ("TAG"). a
second tier wholly owned subsidiary of Acacia Life Insurance Company and an
affiliate of ANLIC. TAG is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC and is a
member of the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD"). ANLIC pays
TAG for acting as the principal underwriter under an Underwriting Agreement.
TAG offers its clients a wide variety of financial products and services and has
the ability to execute stock and bond transactions on a number of national
exchanges. TAG also serves as principal underwriter for ANLIC's variable
annuities and variable life contracts. It also has executed selling agreements
with a variety of mutual funds, issuers of unit investment trusts, and direct
participation programs.
The Policies are sold through Registered Representatives of TAG or other
broker-dealers which have entered into selling agreements with ANLIC or TAG.
These Registered Representatives are also licensed by state insurance officials
to sell ANLIC's variable life policies. Each of the broker-dealers with a
selling agreement is registered with the SEC and is a member of the NASD. In
1998, TAG received gross variable universal life compensation of $17,177,000 and
retained $11,250 in underwriting fees, and $3,113,000 in brokerage commissions
on ANLIC's variable universal life policies.
Under these selling agreements, ANLIC pays commission to the broker-dealers,
which in turn pay commissions to the Registered Representative who sells this
Policy. During the first Policy Year, the commission may equal an amount up to
95% of the first year target premium paid plus the first year cost of any riders
and 2% for premiums paid in excess of the first year target premium. For Policy
Years two through four, the commission may equal an amount up to 2% of premiums
paid. Broker-dealers may also receive a service fee up to an annualized rate of
.25% of the Accumulation Value beginning in the fifth Policy Year. Compensation
arrangements may vary among broker-dealers. In addition, ANLIC may also pay
override payments, expense allowances, bonuses, wholesaler fees, and training
allowances. Registered Representatives who meet certain production standards may
receive additional compensation. ANLIC may reduce or waive the sales charge
and/or other charges on any Policy sold to directors, officers or employees of
ANLIC or any of its affiliates, employees and registered representatives of any
broker dealer that has entered into a sales agreement with ANLIC or TAG and the
spouses or children of the above persons. In no event will any such reduction or
waiver be permitted where it would be unfairly discriminatory to any person.
ADMINISTRATION
ANLIC has contracted with Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. ("Ameritas"), having its
principal place of business at 5900 "O" Street, Lincoln, Nebraska 68501 for it
to provide ANLIC with certain administrative services for the Survivorship
flexible premium variable life policies. Ameritas is an affiliate of ANLIC and a
Member of the Ameritas Acacia Family
REGENT 2000
31
<PAGE>
of Companies. Pursuant to the terms of a Service Agreement, Ameritas will act as
record keeping Service Agent for the policies and riders for an initial term of
three years and any subsequent renewals thereof. Ameritas under the direction of
ANLIC will perform Administrative functions including issuance of policies for
reinstatement, term conversion, plan changes and guaranteed insurability
options, generation of billing and posting of premium, computation of
valuations, calculation of benefits payable, maintenance of administrative
controls over all activities, correspondence, and data, and providing management
reports to ANLIC.
FEDERAL TAX MATTERS
The following discussion provides a general description of the federal income
tax considerations associated with the Policy and does not purport to be
complete or cover all situations. This discussion is not intended as tax advice.
No attempt has been made to consider in detail any applicable state or other tax
laws. (See discussion in the section on Deductions From Premium Payments -
Percent of Premium Charge for Taxes.) This discussion is based upon ANLIC's
understanding of the relevant laws at the time of filing. Counsel and other
competent tax advisors should be consulted for more complete information before
a Policy is purchased. ANLIC makes no representation as to the likelihood of the
continuation of present federal income tax laws nor of the interpretations by
the Internal Revenue Service. Federal tax laws are subject to change and thus
tax consequences to the Insureds, Policy owner or Beneficiary may be altered.
(1) TAXATION OF ANLIC. ANLIC is taxed as a life insurance company under Part I
of Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (the "Code"). At this
time, since Separate Account I is not a separate entity from ANLIC, and its
operations form a part of ANLIC, it will not be taxed separately as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Net
investment income and realized net capital gains on the assets of Separate
Account I are reinvested and automatically retained as a part of the
reserves of the Policy and are taken into account in determining the Death
Benefit and Accumulation Value of the Policy. ANLIC believes that Separate
Account I net investment income and realized net capital gains will not be
taxable to the extent that such income and gains are retained as reserves
under the Policy.
ANLIC does not currently expect to incur any federal income tax liability
attributable to Separate Account I with respect to the sale of the Policies.
Accordingly, no charge is being made currently to Separate Account I for
federal income taxes. If, however, ANLIC determines that it may incur such
taxes attributable to Separate Account I, it may assess a charge for such
taxes against the Separate Account I.
ANLIC may also incur state and local taxes (in addition to premium taxes for
which a deduction from premiums is currently made). At present, they are not
charges against Separate Account I. If there is a material change in state
or local tax laws, charges for such taxes attributable to Separate Account
I, if any, may be assessed against Separate Account I.
(2) TAX STATUS OF THE POLICY. The Code (Section 7702) includes a definition of a
life insurance contract for federal tax purposes which places limitations on
the amount of premiums that may be paid for the Policy and the relationship
of the Accumulation Value to the Death Benefit. While ANLIC believes that
the Policy meets the statutory definition of a life insurance contract under
Internal Revenue Code Section 7702 and should receive federal income tax
treatment consistent with that of a fixed-benefit life insurance policy, the
area of tax law relating to the definition of life insurance does not
explicitly address all relevant issues (including, for example, certain tax
requirements relating to survivorship variable universal life policies).
ANLIC reserves the right to make changes to the Policy if deemed appropriate
by ANLIC to attempt to assure qualification of the Policy as a life
insurance contract. If the Policy were determined not to qualify as life
insurance under Code Section 7702, the Policy would not provide the tax
advantages normally provided by life insurance. If the Death Benefit of a
Policy is changed, the applicable defined limits may change.
The Code (Section 7702A) also defines a "modified endowment contract" for
federal tax purposes. If a life insurance policy is classified as a modified
endowment contract, distributions from it (including loans) are taxed as
ordinary income to the extent of any gain. This Policy will become a
"modified endowment contract" if the premiums paid into the Policy fail to
meet a 7-pay premium test as outlined in Section 7702A of the Code.
Certain benefits the Policy owner may elect under this Policy may be
material changes affecting the 7-pay premium test. These include, but are
not limited to, changes in Death Benefits and changes in the Specified
Amount. One may avoid a Policy becoming a modified endowment contract by,
among other things, not making excessive
REGENT 2000
32
<PAGE>
payments or reducing benefits. Should you deposit excessive premiums during
a Policy Year, that portion that is returned by ANLIC within 60 days after
the Policy Anniversary Date will reduce the premiums paid to prevent the
Policy from becoming a modified endowment contract. All modified endowment
policies issued by ANLIC to the same Policyholder in any 12 month period
are treated as one modified endowment contract for purposes of determining
taxable gain under Section 72(e) of the Internal Revenue Code. Any life
insurance policy received in exchange for a modified endowment contract
will also be treated as a modified endowment contract. You should contact a
competent tax professional before paying additional premiums or making
other changes to the Policy to determine whether such payments or changes
would cause the Policy to become a modified endowment contract.
The Code (Section 817(h)) also authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury (the
"Treasury") to set standards by regulation or otherwise for the investments
of Separate Account I to be "adequately diversified" in order for the Policy
to be treated as a life insurance contract for federal tax purposes.
Separate Account I, through the Funds, intends to comply with the
diversification requirements prescribed by the Treasury in regulations
published in the Federal Register on March 2, 1989, which affect how the
Fund's assets may be invested.
ANLIC does not have control over the Funds or their investments. However,
ANLIC believes that the Funds will be operated in compliance with the
diversification requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Thus, ANLIC
believes that the Policy will be treated as a life insurance contract for
federal tax purposes.
In connection with the issuance of regulations relating to the
diversification requirements, the Treasury announced that such regulations
do not provide guidance concerning the extent to which policy owners may
direct their investments to particular divisions of a Separate Account I.
Regulations in this regard may be issued in the future. It is not clear what
these regulations will provide nor whether they will be prospective only. It
is possible that when regulations are issued, the Policy may need to be
modified to comply with such regulations. For these reasons, ANLIC reserves
the right to modify the Policy as necessary to prevent the Policy owner from
being considered the owner of the assets of the Separate Account I or
otherwise to qualify the Policy for favorable tax treatment.
The following discussion assumes that the Policy will qualify as a life
insurance contract for federal tax purposes.
(3) TAX TREATMENT OF POLICY PROCEEDS. ANLIC believes that the Policy will be
treated in a manner consistent with a fixed benefit life insurance policy
for federal income tax purposes. Thus, ANLIC believes that the Death Benefit
will generally be excludable from the gross income of the Beneficiary under
Section 101(a)(1) of the Code and the Policy owner will not be deemed to be
in constructive receipt of the Accumulation Value under the Policy until its
actual Surrender.
DISTRIBUTIONS FROM POLICIES THAT ARE NOT "MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS".
Distributions (while one or both Insureds are still alive) from a Policy
that is not a modified endowment contract are generally treated as first a
recovery of the investment in the Policy and then only after the return of
all such investment, as disbursing taxable `income. However, in the case of
a decrease in the Death Benefit, a partial withdrawal, a change in Death
Benefit option, or any other such change that reduces future benefits under
the Policy during the first 15 years after a Policy is issued and that
results in a cash distribution to the Policy owner in order for the Policy
to continue complying with the Section 7702 defined limits on premiums and
Accumulation Values, such distributions will be taxable as ordinary income
to the Policy owner (to the extent of any gain in the Policy) as prescribed
in Section 7702. In addition, upon a complete surrender or lapse of a Policy
that is not a "modified endowment contract", if the amount received plus the
amount of any outstanding Policy debt exceeds the total investment in the
Policy, the excess will generally be treated as ordinary income for tax
purposes. Investment in the Policy means (1) the total amount of any
premiums paid for the Policy plus the amount of any loan received under the
policy to the extent the loan is included in gross income of the Policy
owner minus (2) the total amount received under the Policy by the Policy
owner that was excludable from gross income, excluding any non-taxable loan
received under the Policy.
ANLIC also believes that loans received under a Policy that is not a
"modified endowment contract" will be treated as debt of the Policy owner
and that no part of any loan under a Policy will constitute income to the
Policy owner so long as the Policy remains in force, unless the Policy
becomes a "modified endowment contract." See discussion of modified
endowment contract distributions in the section on Tax Status of the Policy.
Should the Policy lapse while Policy loans are outstanding the portion of
the loans attributable to earnings will become taxable. Generally, interest
paid on any loan under a Policy owned by an individual will not be
tax-deductible.
REGENT 2000
33
<PAGE>
Except for Policies with respect to a limited number of key persons of an
employer (both as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), and subject to
applicable interest rate caps, the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996 (the "Health Insurance Act") generally repeals
the deduction for interest paid or accrued after October 13, 1995 on loans
from corporate owned life insurance policies on the lives of officers,
employees or persons financially interested in the taxpayer's trade or
business. Certain transitional rules for existing debt are included in the
Health Insurance Act. The transitional rules include a phase-out of the
deduction for debt incurred (1) before January 1, 1996, or (2) before
January 1, 1997, for policies entered into in 1994 or 1995. The phase-out of
the interest expense deduction occurs over a transition period between
October 13, 1995 and January 1, 1999. There is also a special rule for
pre-June 21, 1986 policies. The Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 ("TRA `97"),
further expanded the interest deduction disallowance for businesses by
providing, with respect to policies issued after June 8, 1997, that no
deduction is allowed for interest paid or accrued on any debt with respect
to life insurance covering the life of any individual (except as noted above
under pre-'97 law with respect to key persons and pre-June 21, 1986
policies). TRA `97 also provides that no deduction is permissible for
premiums paid on a life insurance policy if the taxpayer is directly or
indirectly a beneficiary under the policy. Also under TRA `97 and subject to
certain exceptions, for policies issued after June 8, 1997, no deduction is
allowed for that portion of a taxpayer's interest expense that is allocable
to unborrowed policy cash values. This disallowance generally does not apply
to policies owned by natural persons. Policy Owners should consult a
competent tax advisor concerning the tax implications of these changes for
their Policies.
DISTRIBUTION FROM POLICIES THAT ARE "MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS". Should
the Policy become a "modified endowment contract", partial withdrawals, full
surrenders, assignments, pledges, and loans (including loans to pay loan
interest) under the Policy will be taxable to the extent of the gain under
the Policy. A 10% penalty tax also applies to the taxable portion of any
distribution made prior to the taxpayer's age 59 1/2. The 10% penalty tax
does not apply if the distribution is made because the taxpayer is disabled
as defined under the Code or if the distribution is paid out in the form of
a life annuity on the life of the taxpayer or the joint lives of the
taxpayer and Beneficiary.
The right to exchange the Policy for a survivorship flexible premium
adjustable life insurance policy (See the section on Exchange Privilege.),
the right to change Policy owners (See the section on General Provisions.),
and the provision for partial withdrawals (See the section on Surrenders.)
may have tax consequences depending on the circumstances of such exchange,
change, or withdrawal. Upon complete Surrender, if the amount received plus
any Outstanding Policy Debt exceeds the total premiums paid (the "basis"),
that are not treated as previously withdrawn by the Policy owner, the excess
generally will be taxed as ordinary income.
Federal estate and state and local estate, inheritance, and other tax
consequences of ownership or receipt of Death Benefit Proceeds depend on
applicable law and the circumstances of each Policy owner or Beneficiary. In
addition, if the Policy is used in connection with tax-qualified retirement
plans, certain limitations prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service on,
and rules with respect to the taxation of, life insurance protection
provided through such plans may apply. The advice of competent tax counsel
should be sought in connection with use of life insurance in a qualified
plan.
SAFEKEEPING OF THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT'S ASSETS
ANLIC holds the assets of Separate Account I. The assets are kept physically
segregated and held separately and apart from the General Account assets, except
for the Fixed Account. ANLIC maintains records of all purchases and redemptions
of Funds' shares by each of the Subaccounts.
THIRD PARTY SERVICES
ANLIC is aware that certain third parties are offering investment advisory,
asset allocation, money management and timing services in connection with the
Policies. ANLIC does not engage any such third parties to offer such services of
any type. In certain cases, ANLIC has agreed to honor transfer instructions from
such services where it has received powers of attorney, in a form acceptable to
it, from the Policy owners participating in the service. Firms or persons
offering such services do so independently from any agency relationship they may
have with ANLIC for the sale of Policies. ANLIC takes no responsibility for the
investment allocations and transfers transacted on a Policy owner's behalf by
such third parties or any investment allocation recommendations made by such
parties. Policy owners should be aware that fees paid for such services are
separate and in addition to fees paid under the Policies.
REGENT 2000

<PAGE>
VOTING RIGHTS
ANLIC is the legal holder of the shares held in the Subaccounts of Separate
Account I and as such has the right to vote the shares, to elect Directors of
the Funds, and to vote on matters that are required by the Investment Company
Act of 1940 and upon any other matter that may be voted upon at a shareholder
meeting. To the extent required by law, ANLIC will vote all shares of each of
the Funds held in Separate Account I at regular and special shareholder meetings
of the Funds according to instructions received from Policy owners based on the
number of shares held as of the record date for such meeting.
The number of Fund shares in a Subaccount for which instructions may be given by
a Policy owner is determined by dividing the Accumulation Value held in that
Subaccount by the net asset value of one share in the corresponding portfolio of
the Fund. Fractional shares will be counted. Fund shares held in each Subaccount
for which no timely instructions from Policy owners are received and Fund shares
held in each Subaccount which do not support Policy owner interests will be
voted by ANLIC in the same proportion as those shares in that Subaccount for
which timely instructions are received. Voting instructions to abstain on any
item to be voted will be applied on a pro rata basis to reduce the votes
eligible to be cast. Should applicable federal securities laws or regulations
permit, ANLIC may elect to vote shares of the Fund in its own right.
DISREGARD OF VOTING INSTRUCTION. ANLIC may, if required by state insurance
officials, disregard voting instructions if those instructions would require
shares to be voted to cause a change in the subclassification or investment
objectives or policies of one or more of the Funds' portfolios, or to approve or
disapprove an investment adviser or principal underwriter for the Funds. In
addition, ANLIC itself may disregard voting instructions that would require
changes in the investment objectives or policies of any portfolio or in an
investment adviser or principal underwriter for the Funds, if ANLIC reasonably
disapproves those changes in accordance with applicable federal regulations. If
ANLIC does disregard voting instructions, it will advise Policy owners of that
action and its reasons for the action in the next annual report or proxy
statement to Policy owners.
STATE REGULATION OF ANLIC
ANLIC, a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of Virginia, is
subject to regulation by the Virginia Department of Insurance. On or before
March 1 of each year an NAIC convention blank covering the operations and
reporting on the financial condition of ANLIC and Separate Account I as of
December 31 of the preceding year must be filed with the Virginia Department of
Insurance. Periodically, the Virginia Department of Insurance examines the
liabilities and reserves of ANLIC and Separate Account I.
In addition, ANLIC is subject to the insurance laws and regulations of other
states within which it is licensed or may become licensed to operate. The
Policies offered by the prospectus are available in the various states as
approved. Generally, the Insurance Department of any other state applies the
laws of the state of domicile in determining permissible investments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors
Acacia National Life Insurance Company
We have audited the accompanying statutory statements of financial condition of
Acacia National Life Insurance Company (the Company) as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, and the related statutory statements of operations and changes in capital
and surplus, and cash flow, for the years then ended. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 described more fully in Note 2 to the financial statements, these financial
statements were prepared in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or
permitted by the Bureau of Insurance, State Corporation Commission of the
Commonwealth of Virginia, which practices differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. The effects on the financial statements of the variances
between the statutory basis of accounting and generally accepted accounting
principles are 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 the Company as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 or the results of its operations
or its cash flow for the years then ended.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the admitted assets, liabilities, and surplus of the
Company as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and
its cash flow for the years then ended, on the basis of accounting described in
Note 2.

ACACIA NATIONAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONS
Acacia National Life Insurance Company (the Company) is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Acacia Life Insurance Company (Acacia Life), known prior to June
30, 1997 as Acacia Mutual Life Insurance Company. Acacia Life is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Acacia Financial Group, Ltd (AFG) which is wholly owned by Acacia
Mutual Holding Corporation (AMHC). AMHC and AFG were formed in 1997 pursuant to
a plan of reorganization whereby Acacia Life became a stock life insurance
company. AMHC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are collectively known as The
Acacia Group (the Group). Other members of the Group include Acacia Financial
Corporation and its subsidiaries, Acacia Federal Savings Bank, Calvert Group,
Ltd. and The Advisors Group, Inc.
The Company underwrites and markets deferred and immediate annuities and life
insurance products within the United States and is licensed to operate in 46
states and the District of Columbia. On December 1, 1995 and September 9, 1996,
respectively, operations began for the Acacia National Variable Life Insurance
Separate Account I and Acacia National Variable Annuity Separate Account II
which are separate investment accounts within the Company.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRACTICES
The Company, domiciled in Virginia, prepares its statutory financial statements
in accordance with statutory accounting practices (SAP) prescribed or permitted
by the Bureau of Insurance, State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of
Virginia. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include 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 not so
prescribed. Such practices vary, in some respects, from generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP). The significant statutory basis accounting
practices followed by the Company are described below.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with statutory
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

<PAGE>
ACACIA NATIONAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In general, the SAP basis of accounting varies in certain respects from GAAP in
that:
X Acquisition costs incurred at policy issuance, such as commissions and
other costs incurred in connection with acquiring new business, are charged
to expense in the year in which they are incurred, rather than being
deferred and amortized over the periods benefited.
X Certain assets designated as "non-admitted" are excluded from the balance
sheets by a direct charge to unassigned surplus.
X The asset valuation reserve and interest maintenance reserve are not
recorded for GAAP purposes.
X Federal income taxes are computed in accordance with those sections of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to life insurance companies and are based
solely on currently taxable income. Under GAAP, the recognition of deferred
tax liabilities and assets is required for the expected future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts for
financial statement purposes and the tax basis of other assets and
liabilities.
X The liability for policy reserves is based on statutory assumptions for
interest and mortality without considerations of withdrawals, rather than
assumptions for interest, mortality and withdrawals based on actual
experience.
X Premiums for universal life, single premium non-life contingent immediate
annuity and single premium deferred annuity contracts are reported as
premium income or fund deposits rather than additions to liabilities.
X Reinsurance ceded to other companies is reported on a net basis for premium
revenue, benefits and underwriting, acquisition and insurance expenses, and
policy reserves and accruals. Under GAAP, policy reserves and claim
liabilities ceded are reported separately in the balance sheet as a
reinsurance recoverable asset.
X Debt securities are generally carried at amortized cost, whereas, under
GAAP, investments in debt securities are stated at amortized cost or
current market values depending on the classification pursuant to FASB
Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities. Any difference between cost and current market values of debt
securities classified as available-for-sale, net of deferred income
6
<PAGE>
taxes or benefit and related deferred acquisition cost effects, is reported
as other comprehensive income. Trading securities consist of debt
securities purchased with the intent to resell in the near term and are
reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on trading securities
are credited or charged to net investment income.
The impact of the differences between SAP and GAAP basis reporting on Net Income
and Capital and Surplus is as follows:

VALUATION OF ASSETS
Debt and equity securities are valued in accordance with rules prescribed by the
NAIC. Debt securities are generally stated at amortized cost, preferred stocks
at cost and common stocks at market value. Collateralized mortgage obligations
are valued using the prospective method and currently anticipated prepayment
assumptions, based on data from current actual experience. Mortgage loans and
policy loans are recorded at their unpaid balance. Discount or premium on debt
securities is amortized using the interest method. Unrealized capital gains and
losses are reflected directly in surplus and are not included in net income.
Realized gains and losses are determined on a first-in, first-out basis and are
presented in the statements of operations, net of taxes and excluding amounts
transferred to the Interest Maintenance Reserve.
As prescribed by the NAIC, the Company maintains an Asset Valuation Reserve
(AVR). The AVR is computed in accordance with a prescribed formula. The purpose
of the AVR is to stabilize surplus against fluctuations in the value of stocks
and credit-related declines in the value of bonds, mortgage loans and other
invested assets. Changes to the AVR are charged or credited directly to surplus.
7
<PAGE>
As also prescribed by the NAIC, the Company maintains an Interest Maintenance
Reserve, which represents the net accumulated unamortized realized capital gains
and losses attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates on
sales of fixed income investments, principally bonds and mortgage loans. Such
gains or losses are amortized into income using schedules prescribed by the NAIC
over the remaining period to expected maturity of the individual securities
sold.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers overnight reverse repurchase agreements, money market
funds and short-term investments with original maturities of less than three
months at the time of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are
carried at cost.
SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
Separate Accounts are assets and liabilities associated with certain life
insurance and annuity contracts, for which the investment risk lies solely with
the holder of the contract rather than the Company. Consequently, the insurer's
liability for these Separate Accounts equals the value of the Separate Account
assets. Investment income and realized gains (losses) related to Separate
Accounts are excluded from the statements of operations and cash flows. Assets
held in Separate Accounts are primarily shares in mutual funds, which are
carried at fair value, based on the quoted net asset value per share.
NON-ADMITTED ASSETS
Certain assets, primarily goodwill, are designated as "non-admitted" under SAP.
The cost of these assets is charged directly to surplus. Non-admitted balances
totaled $2,978,000 and $3,662,000 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
POLICY RESERVES
Life policy reserves are computed by using the Commissioners Reserve Valuation
Method and the Commissioners Standard Ordinary Mortality table. Annuity reserves
are calculated using the Commissioners Annuity Reserve Valuation Method and the
maximum valuation interest rate; for annuities with life contingencies, the
prescribed valuation mortality table is used. Policy claims in process of
settlement include provision for reported claims and claims incurred but not
reported. The valuation rates for fixed immediate and deferred annuities range
between 6.0% and 11.25% as of December 31, 1998.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Company files a consolidated tax return with the Group. Under statutory
accounting practices, no provision is made for deferred federal income taxes
related to temporary differences between statutory and taxable income. Such
temporary differences arise primarily from Internal Revenue Code requirements
regarding the capitalization and amortization of
8
<PAGE>
deferred policy acquisition costs, calculation of life insurance reserves and
recognition of realized gains or losses on sales of debt securities.
PREMIUMS AND RELATED EXPENSE
Premiums are recognized as income over the premium paying period of the
policies. Annuity considerations and fund deposits are included in revenue as
received. Commissions and other policy acquisition costs are expensed as
incurred.
REINSURANCE
The Company cedes reinsurance to provide for greater diversification of
business, additional capacity for growth as well as a way for management to
control exposure to potential losses arising from large risks. A significant
portion of reinsurance is ceded to Acacia Life.
The excess of the amount of liabilities assumed over the amount of assets
received upon execution of an assumption reinsurance agreement is recorded as
goodwill, a non-admitted asset, and charged directly to surplus. Goodwill is
being amortized over a period of ten years using the interest method.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications of 1997 amounts were made to conform with the 1998
financial statement presentation.

<PAGE>
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its
fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
INVESTMENT SECURITIES: Fair values for fixed maturity securities (including
redeemable preferred stocks and mortgage backed securities) are based on quoted
market prices, where available. For fixed maturity securities not actively
traded and for private placements, fair values are estimated using values
obtained from independent pricing services. The fair values for equity
securities are based on quoted market prices.
MORTGAGE LOANS: The fair values for mortgage loans are estimated using
discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered
for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings. Loans with similar
characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The carrying amount approximates fair values because
of the short maturity of these instruments.
POLICY LOANS: Policy loans are an integral component of insurance contracts and
have no maturity dates. Future cash flows are uncertain and difficult to
predict. Therefore, management has concluded that it is not practical to
estimate their fair value.
INVESTMENT CONTRACTS: Fair values for the Company's liabilities under
investment-type insurance contracts are estimated using discounted cash flow
calculations, based on interest rates currently being offered for similar
contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for the contracts
being valued. The carrying values for the deposit administration contracts and
supplementary contracts without life contingencies approximate their fair
values.

INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO CREDIT RISK
The Company's bond investment portfolio is predominately comprised of investment
grade securities. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, approximately $8.9 million and
$3.9 million, respectively, in debt security investments (1.6% and 0.7%,
respectively, of the total debt security portfolio) are considered "below
investment grade." Securities are classified as "below investment grade" by
utilizing rating criteria established by the NAIC.
NOTE 4 - REINSURANCE
The Company reinsures all life insurance risks over its retention limit of $10
thousand per policy under yearly renewable term insurance agreements with Acacia
Life and several other non-affiliated companies. The Company remains obligated
for amounts ceded in the event that reinsurers do not meet their obligations.
Since the reinsurance treaties are of such a nature as to pass economic risk to
the reinsurer, appropriate reductions are made from income, claims, expense and
liability items in accounting for the reinsurance ceded.

During 1997, the Company terminated a reinsurance agreement whereby disability
benefits were ceded to Acacia Life. Termination of the agreement resulted in net
expense to the Company of $372,000.
ASSUMPTION REINSURANCE AGREEMENT
Effective May 31, 1996 under an assumption reinsurance agreement, the Company
assumed certain assets and liabilities relating to annuities previously
underwritten by the National American Life Insurance Company (NALICO), which had
been in rehabilitation. Under the agreement, the Company assumed fixed annuity
13
<PAGE>
policies with statutory liabilities of $127.9 million. The Company received from
NALICO assets with a fair value of approximately $122.7, consisting principally
of investment grade bonds and short-term investments. The difference between
assets acquired and liabilities assumed of $5.2 million was capitalized as
goodwill and treated as a non-admitted asset. Based on adjustments in 1997,
additional assets of $0.4 million were received and reduced the goodwill.
Approximately $0.7 million and $1.1 million was amortized through operations
during 1998 and 1997, respectively, as an offset to miscellaneous income. At
December 31, 1998 and 1997, the balance of goodwill was $3.0 million and $3.7
million, respectively.

NOTE 6 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Under a tax sharing agreement between the Company and other members of the
Group, Acacia Life reimburses or receives from the Company an amount
representing the taxes that would have been paid or refunded had the Company
filed a separate income tax return.
Under the statutes in effect before the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984, a portion
of "net income" was not subject to current income taxation for stock life
insurance companies, but was accumulated for tax purposes in a memorandum tax
account. The 1984 Act prohibited any additions to the memorandum tax account
after 1983. The balance in this account for the Company was $6.6 million at
December 31, 1998 and 1997. In the event that either cash distributions from the
Company to Acacia Life or the balance in the memorandum tax account exceeds
certain stated minimums, such amounts distributed would become subject to
federal income taxes at rates then in effect.
14
<PAGE>
NOTE 7 - OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has entered into an agreement whereby Acacia Life provides such
services and facilities as are necessary for the operation of the Company.
Expenses allocated to the Company were based on a consistent method for 1998 and
1997. Net amounts payable to Acacia Life at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are $7.6
million and $1.5 million, respectively, and are included in other liabilities.
During 1997, the Company purchased participations of $5.0 million in two
commercial mortgage loans from Acacia Life. The participations were purchased at
the unpaid principal balance.
The assets of the defined contribution plan under Internal Revenue Code Section
401(k) for the employees of Acacia Life include an investment in a deposit
administration contract with Acacia National of $18.7 million and $18.1 million
at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
NOTE 8 - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company is involved in various lawsuits that have arisen in the ordinary
course of business. Management believes that its defenses are meritorious and
the eventual outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material effect on the
Company's financial position.
NOTE 9 - CAPITAL AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS
The maximum amount of annual dividends and other distributions which may be
remitted by the Company to its shareholder without prior approval of the
appropriate state insurance commissioner is subject to restrictions relating to
statutory capital and surplus and statutory gains from operations. Due to a
statutory loss from operations in 1998, the Company may not pay any dividend in
1999 without prior approval.
Regulatory risk-based capital rules require a specified level of capital
depending on the types and quality of investments held, the types of business
written and the types of liabilities maintained. Depending on the ratio of an
insurer's adjusted surplus to its risk-based capital, the insurer could be
subject to various regulatory actions ranging from increased scrutiny to
conservatorship. The Company's risk-based capital ratios for 1998 and 1997 are
significantly above the regulatory action levels.
15
<PAGE>
NOTE 10 - CAPITAL AND SURPLUS
During 1997, the Company changed the valuation interest rates for certain
supplementary contracts, resulting in an increase in the liability of
approximately $700,000. Based on an agreement with the Bureau of Insurance, the
increase is being recognized evenly over three years, with $119,000 charged
directly against surplus and the remainder charged through operations.
NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Effective January 1, 1999, the Company's ultimate parent, Acacia Mutual Holding
Corporation merged with the Ameritas Mutual Insurance Holding Company to create
Ameritas Acacia Mutual Holding Company.

NOTES TO STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENT
MARCH 31, 1999
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company, domiciled in Virginia, prepares its statutory financial statement
in accordance with statutory accounting practices (SAP) prescribed or permitted
by the Bureau of Insurance, State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of
Virginia. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include 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 not so
prescribed. Such practices vary, in some respects, from generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP). The significant statutory basis accounting
practices followed by the Company are described below.
The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with statutory
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management believes that all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring
accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited interim
financial statement have been included. The results of operations for any
interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The
unaudited interim financial statement should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statement and notes thereto for the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997.

1998, and the results of their operations and the changes in their net assets
for each of the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Account's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which 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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by correspondence with the
mutual funds, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

ACACIA NATIONAL VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE SEPARATE ACCOUNT I
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONS
The Acacia National Variable Life Insurance Separate Account I (the Account)
began operations on December 1, 1995 as a separate investment account within
Acacia National Life Insurance Company (the Company) to receive and invest net
premiums paid under a flexible premium variable life insurance policy (the
Policy). The Policy allows for flexible premium deposits, as payments may be
made with varying amounts and frequency within stated limitations. The primary
purpose of the policy is to provide life insurance protection in the event of
the insured's death.
The Company is a member of the Acacia Group which includes Acacia Life Insurance
Company (known prior to June 30, 1997 as Acacia Mutual Life Insurance Company)
and its other wholly-owned subsidiaries: Acacia Financial Corporation (AFCO) and
its subsidiaries, Acacia Federal Savings Bank F.S.B., Calvert Group, Ltd. and
The Advisors Group, Inc. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company's ultimate
parent, Acacia Mutual Holding Corporation, merged with Ameritas Mutual Holding
Company to create Ameritas Acacia Mutual Holding Company.
Assets of the Account are the property of the Company. However, those assets
attributable to the policies are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of
any other business which the Company may conduct. The Account operates and is
registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
The net assets maintained in the Account attributable to the policies provide
the base for the periodic determination of the increased or decreased benefits
under the policies.
NOTE 2 - SEPARATE ACCOUNT ASSETS
As of December 31, 1998, the Account has nineteen separate sub-accounts which
are invested as directed by the contract owner. The Account purchases shares of
each of the sub-accounts subject to the terms of the Participation Agreements
between the Company and the sub-accounts. Shares of each sub-account are offered
at a price equal to their respective net asset values per share, without sales
charge, which represents their fair value. Calvert Asset Management Company,
Inc., an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of AFCO, serves as an investment
advisor to the Calvert Variable Series Inc. Calvert Social Money Market, Calvert
Social Small Cap, Calvert Social Mid Cap and Calvert Social International Equity
Portfolios. The Advisors Group, Inc. acts as a principal underwriter of the
policies pursuant to an underwriting agreement with the Company.
In addition to the nineteen separate sub-accounts, a contract owner may also
allocate net premiums to the General Account, which is part of the Company.
Because of exclusionary provisions, interests in the General Account have not
been registered as securities under the Securities Act of 1933 and the General
Account has not been registered as an investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940.

NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Account in the preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
6
<PAGE>
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
INVESTMENTS VALUATION
Investments are stated at market value based on the net asset value of the
underlying investment in each of the respective funds. Net asset values are
based upon market quotations of the securities held in each of the corresponding
portfolios of the sub-accounts.
ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date. However, dividends of $30,157 for the S&P 500
Index sub-account and $21,938 for the International Growth sub-account were
received in 1997 and recorded in 1998. All affected policyholder accounts were
adjusted. Identified cost is the basis followed in determining the cost of
investments sold for financial statement purposes.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The operations of the Account are taxed as part of the total operations of the
Company. The Company is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal
Revenue Code. Under existing law, no taxes are payable on investment income or
realized capital gains of the Account.
NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The following charges are deducted by the Company from the Account's net assets
attributed to each policy:
Premium Expense Charge: Premiums are reduced by a charge equal to 2.25%
of each premium to compensate the Company for expenses associated with
state premium taxes of the policy.
Policy Account Value Charges: The policy account value will be reduced
by a monthly deduction equal to the sum of the cost of insurance charge,
the cost of any optional insurance benefits added by a rider and a
monthly administrative charge equal to $27 per month for the first
policy year and $8 each month thereafter. The cost of insurance will
vary based upon a number of factors including the face amount of the
policy, issue age, attained age and rate class of the insured.
7
<PAGE>
Surrender Charges: A surrender charge will be assessed at 30% of
premiums received up to target premium, as defined in the prospectus,
for years 1-7 decreasing to 10% per year until reaching zero in year 10.
Partial Surrender Charges: During the surrender charge period for the
policy, there will be a charge for a partial surrender equal to 8% of
the amount withdrawn or $25, whichever is greater.
Mortality and Expense Charge: A charge not to exceed an annual rate of
0.90% for years 1-15, decreasing 0.05% per year for years 16 and
thereafter until the annual rate reaches 0.45%, of the average daily net
asset value of the Account applicable to policies issued when each rate
was in effect. These charges are deducted by the Company in return for
its assumption of expenses arising from adverse mortality experience and
excess administrative expenses in connection with the policies issued.
In addition, contract owners bear the investment management fees and
other expense incurred by the Portfolios.
NOTE 5 - PURCHASES AND SALES
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales for the two years ended December
31,1998 and 1997 for the sub-accounts are as follows:

ACACIA NATIONAL VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE SEPARATE ACCOUNT I
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
MARCH 31, 1999
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
INVESTMENTS VALUATION
Investments are stated at market value based on the net asset value of the
underlying investment in each of the respective funds. Net asset values are
based upon market quotations of the securities held in each of the corresponding
portfolios of the subaccounts.
ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Identified cost is the basis followed in
determining the cost of investments sold for financial statement purposes.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management believes that all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring
accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited interim
financial statement have been included. The results of operations for any
interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The
unaudited interim financial statement should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statement and notes thereto for the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997.

Appendix A
Illustrations of Death Benefits and Cash Values
The following tables illustrate how the Accumulation Values and Death Benefits
of a Policy may change with the investment experience of the Fund. The tables
show how the Accumulation Values and Death Benefits of a Policy issued at a
given premium on Insureds of given ages and specified underwriting risk
classifications would vary over time if the investment return on the assets held
in each portfolio of the Funds were a uniform, gross, after-tax annual rate of
12%, 6%, or 0%. The tables on pages A-2 through A-7 illustrate a Policy issued
to a male, age 65 under a Preferred rate non-tobacco underwriting risk
classification and a female age 65, also under a Preferred rate non-tobacco
underwriting risk classification. This Policy provides for standard tobacco use
and non-tobacco use, and preferred non-tobacco classifications. The Accumulation
Values and Death Benefits would be different from those shown if the gross
annual investment rates of return averaged 12%, 6%, and 0% over a period of
years, but fluctuated above and below those averages for individual Policy
Years, or if the Insureds were assigned to different underwriting risk
classifications.
The first two columns of the tables show the Policy Years and End of Year Age.
The next two columns show Annual Premium Outlay and the Net Annual Rate of
Return (ROR). The following columns show the Total Accumulated Value, Total
Surrender Value and Total Death Benefit. The columns headed Current Charges
assume that, throughout the life of the Policy, the monthly Cost of Insurance is
based on the current Cost of Insurance Rates and that current expense deductions
and the current percent of premium load are applied. This reflects the basis on
which ANLIC currently sells its Policies. The columns headed Guaranteed Charges
assume that, throughout the life of the Policy, the monthly Cost of Insurance is
based on the maximum Cost of Insurance Rate permitted under the Policy and that
the maximum allowable expense deductions and percent of premium loads are
applied. The maximum allowable Cost of Insurance Rates under the Policy are
based upon the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Smoker and Non-Smoker, Male
and Female Mortality Tables (Smoker is referenced for tobacco use rates;
Non-Smoker is referenced for non-tobacco use rates). Since these are recent
tables and are split to reflect tobacco use and sex, the current Cost of
Insurance Rates used by ANLIC are at this time equal to the maximum Cost of
Insurance Rates for many ages. ANLIC anticipates reflecting future improvements
in actual mortality experience through adjustments in the current cost of
insurance rates actually applied. ANLIC also anticipates reflecting any future
improvements in expenses incurred by applying lower percent of premiums of loads
and other expense deductions. The tables on pages A-2 through A-4 are based on a
level Death Benefit Option (Option A) and the tables on pages A-5 through A-7
are based on an increasing Death Benefit Option (Option B).
The amounts shown for the Accumulation Values, Surrender values and Death
Benefits reflect the fact that the net investment return of the Subaccounts is
lower than the gross, after-tax return of the assets held in the Funds as a
result of expenses paid by the Fund and charges levied against the Subaccounts.
The values shown take into account an average of the expenses paid by each
portfolio available for investment (the equivalent to an annual rate of .95% of
the aggregate average daily net assets of the Funds). Certain of the Funds
entered into arrangements for reimbursements and waivers for portions of
expenses. Without these arrangements, expenses would have been higher, as
follows: 0.88% for CVS Balanced, 1.06% for CVS Mid Cap, 0.66% for CVS Money
Market, 1.80% for CVS International Equity, 1.33% for CVS Small Cap, and 1.20%
for Van Eck Worldwide Hard Assets Fund. These agreements are expected to
continue in future years but may be terminated at any time. As long as the
expense limitations continue for a portfolio, if a reimbursement occurs, it has
the effect of lowering the portfolio's expense ratio and increasing its total
return. The illustrated gross annual investment rates of return of 12%, 6%, and
0% were computed after deducting Fund expenses and correspond to approximate net
annual rates of 10.15%, 4.15%, and -1.85%, respectively, for years 1-15 and
10.60%, 4.60%, and -1.40%, respectively, for the years thereafter.
The hypothetical values shown in the tables do not reflect any charges for
federal income tax burden attributable to Separate Account I, since ANLIC is not
currently making such charges. However, such charges may be made in the future
and, in that event, the gross annual investment rate of return would have to
exceed 12 percent, 6 percent, or 0 percent by an amount sufficient to cover the
tax charges in order to produce the death benefits and values illustrated. (See
the section on Federal Tax Matters.)
The tables illustrate the Policy values that would result based upon the
hypothetical investment rates of return if premiums are paid as indicated, if
all net premiums are allocated to Separate Account I, and if no Policy loans
have been made. The tables are also based on the assumptions that the Policy
Owner has not requested an increase or decrease in the initial Specified Amount,
that no partial withdrawals have been made, and that no more than fifteen
transfers have been made in any Policy Year so that no transfer charges have
been incurred. Illustrated values would be different if the proposed Insureds
were both male or both female, tobacco users, in substandard risk
classifications, or were other ages, or if a higher or lower premium was
illustrated.
Upon request, ANLIC will provide comparable illustrations based upon the
proposed Insureds' ages, sexes and underwriting classifications, the Specified
Amount, the Death Benefit option, and planned periodic premium schedule
requested, and any available riders requested. In addition, upon client request,
illustrations may be furnished reflecting allocation of premiums to specified
Subaccounts. Such illustrations will reflect the expenses of the portfolio in
which the Subaccount invests.

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS
"ACCUMULATION VALUE" means the total amount of value held in your accounts at
any time. It is equal to the total of the accumulation value held in the
Account, the Fixed Account, and the accumulation value held in the general
account which secures outstanding policy debt.
"BENEFICIARY" means the person to whom the death benefit proceeds are payable
upon the second death. The beneficiary is named by the Owner in the application.
If changed, the beneficiary is as shown in the latest change filed and recorded
with us. If no beneficiary survives the second death, the Owner or the Owner's
estate will be the beneficiary. The interest of any beneficiary is subject to
that of any assignee.
"DEATH BENEFIT" means the total amount of insurance coverage provided under the
selected death benefit option of this policy.
"DEATH BENEFIT PROCEEDS" means the proceeds payable to the beneficiary upon
receipt by us of the satisfactory proof of the death of both Insureds while this
policy is in force. It is equal to: (1) the death benefit; plus (2) any
additional life insurance proceeds provided by any riders; minus (3) any
outstanding policy debt; minus (4) any overdue monthly deductions, including the
deduction for the month of the second death.
"GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT PERIOD" is the period during which the Guaranteed
Death Benefit is in effect and will end on the earliest of the following dates:
a. The expiration date shown on the schedule pages of this policy or any revised
schedule pages.
b. The date that the net policy funding is less than the Guaranteed Death
Benefit requirement. See Section 2.3.
c. The date on which this policy first terminates even if this policy is
reinstated.
"INSURED" AND "INSUREDS" mean the person or persons upon whose lives this policy
is issued.

time of the loan less the monthly deductions remaining for the balance of the
policy year, less interest on the policy debt including the requested loan to
the next policy anniversary date.
MINIMUM BENEFIT PERIOD" is the period during which the Minimum Benefit is in
effect and will end on the earliest of the following dates:
a. The end of the sixtieth (60th) month after the policy date.
b. The date that the net policy funding is less than the Minimum Benefit
requirements. See Section 2.
c. The date on which this policy first terminates even if this policy is
reinstated.
8065 3
<PAGE>
"MINIMUM PREMIUM" is a monthly premium listed in this policy for the original
face amount and any increase made during the first sixty months that this policy
is in force. During the first sixty months that this policy is in force, the
policy is guaranteed not to lapse provided the net policy funding equals or
exceeds the sum of the scheduled Minimum Premiums since the policy date and any
increase date. Relying on the Minimum Benefit feature will reduce premium
flexibility.
"MONTHLY ACTIVITY DATE" means the same date in each succeeding month as the
policy date except that whenever the monthly activity date falls on a date other
than a valuation date, the monthly activity date will be deemed the next
valuation date.
"MONTHLY DEDUCTIONS" means the deductions taken from the accumulation value on
the monthly activity date. These deductions are equal to: 1) the current cost of
insurance for the basic policy plus the cost for any riders; and 2) the
administrative expense charge.
"NET CASH SURRENDER VALUE" means the accumulation value on any valuation date,
less any surrender charges and less any outstanding policy debt.
"NET POLICY FUNDING" is the sum of all premiums paid, less any partial
withdrawals and less any outstanding policy debt.
"NET PREMIUM" means the premium paid less the percent of premium charge for
taxes.
"OUTSTANDING POLICY DEBT" means the sum of all unpaid policy loans and accrued
interest on policy loans.
"OWNER" means the Owner or owners (if joint ownership is elected) of this
policy, as designated in the application or as subsequently changed. If a policy
has been absolutely assigned, the assignee is the Owner. A collateral assignee
is not the Owner. See Section 2.9 for the rights and privileges of the Owner.
"PERCENT OF PREMIUM CHARGE FOR TAXES" is an amount deducted from each premium
received to cover certain expenses. This charge is a percentage of the premium.
The maximum applicable percentage can be found on the schedule pages.
"PLANNED PERIODIC PREMIUM" means a selected scheduled premium of a level amount
at a fixed interval. The initial planned periodic premium you selected is shown
on the schedule pages. See Section 3.3 of this policy.
"POLICY DATE" means the effective date for all coverage provided in the
application. The policy date is used to determine policy anniversary dates,
policy years and monthly activity dates. Policy anniversaries are measured from
the policy date. The policy date and the issue date will be the same unless: 1)
an earlier policy date is specifically requested, or 2) additional premiums or
application amendments are required at the time of delivery, in which case the
policy date will be earlier.
"POLICY YEAR" means the period from one policy anniversary date until the next
policy anniversary date.

net cash surrender value is sufficient to cover monthly deductions.
However, this policy will remain in force if the requirements of either the
Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed Death Benefit provision is in effect on this
policy, even if the net cash surrender value is insufficient to cover monthly
deductions. See Sections 2.3 and 2.4.

<PAGE>
2.2 WHEN THIS POLICY TERMINATES
This policy will terminate on the earliest of:
a. Any monthly activity date when the net cash surrender value is
insufficient to cover monthly deductions and the grace period ends without
sufficient premium being paid. However, this policy will not terminate if
the Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed Death Benefit is in effect, even if the
net cash surrender value is insufficient to cover monthly deductions.
b. The second death.
c. You request the coverage be terminated and you return this policy.
2.3 GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT
The Guaranteed Death Benefit is a benefit which applies to this policy at issue.
This benefit will ensure that the policy will remain in force as long as the net
policy funding meets or exceeds the Guaranteed Death Benefit requirement and the
policy is within the Guaranteed Death Benefit Period. The Guaranteed Death
Benefit requirement is the cumulative Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium to the
monthly activity date. The Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium and the Guaranteed
Death Benefit Period are shown on the schedule page. Any changes in the
Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium due to increases in specified amount or
additions of riders will be reflected in the requirement from the effective date
of the change.
If the net policy funding is less than the Guaranteed Death Benefit requirement,
the benefit is no longer in effect. You will be notified by mail and will have
61 days from the date we mail the notice to meet the Guaranteed Death Benefit
requirement. The Guaranteed Death Benefit can not be reinstated once this policy
has lapsed.
2.4 MINIMUM BENEFIT
The Minimum Benefit is a benefit which applies to this policy at issue. This
benefit will ensure that the policy will remain in force during the first sixty
(60) months from the policy date as long as the net policy funding meets or
exceeds the Minimum Benefit requirement. The Minimum Benefit requirement is the
cumulative Minimum Premiums to the monthly activity date. The Minimum Premium is
shown in the schedule page. Any changes in the Minimum Premium due to increases
in specified amount or additions of rider will be reflected in the requirement
from the effective date of the change.
If the net policy funding is less than the Minimum Benefit requirement, the
benefit is no longer in effect. You will be notified by mail and will have 61
days from the date we mail the notice to meet the Minimum Benefit requirement.
The Minimum Benefit can not be reinstated once this policy has lapsed.
2.5 THE POLICY AND ITS PARTS
This policy is a legal contract between you and us. It is issued in return for
the application and payment of the initial premium as described in Section 3.1.
This policy, the application, any supplemental applications, riders,
endorsements, and amendments are the entire contract. No change in this policy
will be valid unless it is in writing, attached to this policy, and approved by
either the president or secretary of the company. No agent may change this
policy or waive any of its provisions.

<PAGE>
2.6 REPRESENTATIONS AND CONTESTABILITY
We rely on statements made in the application. In the absence of fraud, they are
considered representations and not warranties. We can contest this policy for
any material misrepresentation of fact. The misrepresentation must have been
made in the application attached to this policy when issued or in a supplemental
application made a part of this policy when a change in coverage or
reinstatement went into effect.
We cannot contest this policy after it has been in force during the life time of
the Insureds for two years from the policy date. Nor can we contest any
increased benefits later than two years after the effective date of the
increased benefits during the lifetime of the Insureds. Any increase or
reinstatement will be contestable, within the two year period, only with regard
to statements made in the supplemental application. This provision does not
apply to riders with their own contestability provision.
We may require evidence that both Insureds are living during the first two years
from the policy date or from the effective date of any increase in benefits.
2.7 MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX
If the age or sex of either Insured or any person insured by rider has been
misstated on the application, the death benefit and any additional benefits
provided will be those which would have been purchased by the most recent
deduction for the cost of insurance and the cost of any additional benefits at
the insured person(s) correct ages and/or sexes.
2.8 SUICIDE
If either Insured commits suicide while sane or insane, within two years from
the policy date, we will limit the proceeds. The limited amount will equal all
premiums paid for this policy, less outstanding policy debt, partial
withdrawals, and the cost for riders.
If either Insured commits suicide, while sane or insane, within two years from
the effective date of any increase in the specified amount, we will limit the
proceeds payable with respect to the increase. The proceeds thus limited will
equal the total cost of insurance applicable to the increase. This provision
does not apply to riders with their own suicide provision.
2.9 THE OWNER
While either Insured is living you have all the benefits, rights and privileges
under this policy. These include naming a successor-owner, changing the
beneficiary, assigning this policy, enjoying all policy benefits, and exercising
all policy options. If there is more than one Owner at a given time, all must
exercise the right of ownership.
If you are not one of the Insureds, you should name a successor-owner who will
become the Owner if you die before the second death. If you die before the
second death and there is no successor-owner, ownership will pass to your
estate.
Unless otherwise designated in the application or subsequently changed under a
successor-owner designation, joint ownership will be joint tenants with rights
of survivorship. If a successor-owner has been named to be effective on the
first Owner's death, then any death benefit proceeds payable by rider attached
to this policy will be paid in accordance with rider provisions prior to any
ownership change. If no successor-owner has been named or is no longer living,
then the ownership will pass to the Executor or Administrator of the last
Owner's estate unless otherwise indicated.

<PAGE>
2.10 THE BENEFICIARY
You can name primary and contingent beneficiaries. Your original beneficiary
choice is shown in the attached application.
Unless a payment plan is chosen, the proceeds payable at the second death will
be paid in a lump sum to the primary beneficiary. If the primary beneficiary
dies before the second death, the proceeds will be paid to the contingent
beneficiary. If no beneficiary survives the second death, the proceeds will be
paid to your estate.
2.11 CHANGING THE BENEFICIARY
You may change the beneficiary during either Insured's lifetime. We do not limit
the number of changes that may be made. To make the change, we must receive a
completed Change of Beneficiary form and any other forms required by our
Administrative Office. The change will take effect as of the date we record it
at our Administrative Office, even if the second death occurs before we do so.
Each change will be subject to any payment we made or any other action we took
before the change is recorded.
2.12 ASSIGNING THE POLICY
You may assign this policy. For an assignment to bind us, we must receive a
signed copy in our Administrative Office. We are not responsible for the
validity of any assignment.
An assignment is subject to any policy debt. Policy debt is discussed in Section
11.
2.13 NON-PARTICIPATING
This policy is non-participating. In other words, no dividends will be paid
under this policy.
SECTION 3. PREMIUM PAYMENTS
3.1 GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT PREMIUM
You have the option to pay a planned premium based on the Guaranteed Death
Benefit Premium. The monthly premium is shown on the schedule pages.
During the Guaranteed Death Benefit Period, also shown on the schedule pages, if
net policy funding meets or exceeds the Guaranteed Death Benefit requirement,
this policy will remain in force, even if the net cash surrender value is
insufficient to cover monthly deductions.
3.2 MINIMUM PREMIUM
You have the option to pay a planned premium based on the Minimum Premium. The
monthly premium is shown on the schedule pages.
8065 8
<PAGE>
During the first sixty months from the policy date shown on the schedule page,
when net policy funding meets or exceeds the Minimum Benefit requirement, the
policy will remain in force, even if the net cash surrender value is
insufficient to cover monthly deductions.
3.3 PLANNED PERIODIC PREMIUM
This is a flexible premium policy. You may choose to pay planned periodic
premiums, and as indicated in Sections 3.1 and 3.2, you may elect to base your
planned periodic premiums on the Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium or the Minimum
Premium. However, planned periodic premiums are not required. The amount and
frequency of the planned periodic premiums you selected when this policy was
issued is shown on the schedule pages. You may change the frequency of the
payments or the amount by sending a written request to our Administrative
Office. We reserve the right to limit the amount and frequency of the planned
periodic premiums you choose to pay.
3.4 UNSCHEDULED PREMIUMS
Any premium we receive under this policy in an amount different from the planned
periodic premium will be considered an unscheduled premium. Unscheduled premiums
can be made at any time while this policy is in force, subject to the premium
limits provision below.
3.5 PREMIUM LIMITS
We reserve the right to limit the amount and frequency of premium payments. We
will not accept that portion of a premium payment which affects the tax
qualifications of this policy as described in Section 7702 of the Internal
Revenue Code, as amended. This excess amount will be returned to you.
3.6 WHERE TO PAY PREMIUMS
Each premium after the first one is payable at our Administrative Office. Upon
request, a receipt signed by our Secretary or an Assistant Secretary will be
given for any premium payment.
3.7 NET PREMIUM
Before the premiums paid are allocated to the Subaccounts and/or Fixed Account,
a percent of premium charge for taxes is deducted. The amount of premium then
allocated is called the net premium.
3.8 PERCENT OF PREMIUM CHARGE FOR TAXES
The percent of premium charge for taxes is deducted from each premium payment
received. The percent of premium charge for taxes is shown on the schedule
pages.
8065 9
<PAGE>
3.9 ALLOCATION OF NET PREMIUMS
Unless otherwise required by state law, the initial net premium will be
allocated on the issue date to the Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account as you
have selected on the application. When state or other applicable law or
regulation requires return of at least your premium payments should you return
this policy pursuant to the "Notice of Ten-Day Right to Examine Policy"
provision shown on the policy cover, the initial net premium will be allocated
on the issue date to a money market Subaccount, unless you have allocated 100%
to the Fixed Account. Then, on the 13th day after the issue date, the
accumulation value will be reallocated to the Subaccounts and/or the Fixed
Account as you have selected on the application. If you have allocated 100% to
the Fixed Account, the accumulation value is immediately allocated to the Fixed
Account on the issue date. Any additional premium received will be allocated in
accordance with your instructions. You may change the allocation of later net
premiums without charge. The allocation will apply to future net premiums after
we receive the change. The Subaccounts and the Fixed Account are discussed in
Sections 5 and 6.
SECTION 4. GRACE PERIOD
AND REINSTATEMENT
4.1 GRACE PERIOD
This policy will begin a 61 day grace period when:
a. the net cash surrender value on any monthly activity date is not sufficient
to cover monthly deductions; and
b. the Guaranteed Death Benefit is no longer in effect; and
c. the Minimum Benefit is no longer in effect.
The 61 day grace period will begin on the day we mail a notice of the premium
necessary to keep this policy in force. We will mail this notice to you at your
last known address and to any assignee of record. If sufficient premium is not
paid by the end of the grace period, this policy will terminate without value.
If the second death occurs during the grace period, the overdue monthly
deductions will be deducted from the death proceeds.
4.2 CONTINUATION OF INSURANCE
Insurance coverage under this policy and any benefits provided by any rider(s)
will be continued through the grace period.
4.3 REINSTATING THE POLICY
If both Insureds are living and application is made within five years from the
beginning of any grace period, this policy can be considered for reinstatement
if it terminated because a grace period ended without sufficient premium being
paid.
To qualify for reinstatement, you must send evidence satisfactory to us that
both Insureds are insurable in the same rating classes that were in effect when
the grace period expired. The effective date of the reinstatement will be the
first monthly activity date on or next following the date the application for
reinstatement is approved.
8065 10
<PAGE>
To reinstate the policy, you will have to pay a premium equal to the greater of:
a. a premium sufficient to bring the net cash surrender value as of the date of
reinstatement to an amount above zero; or
b. three times the current month's monthly deduction, adjusted for the percent
of premium charge for taxes.
We will accept a premium larger than the applicable amount described above.
This policy cannot be reinstated if it has been surrendered for its net cash
surrender value. Any policy debt will be reinstated. The Guaranteed Death
Benefit and Minimum Benefit provisions cannot be reinstated.
SECTION 5. SEPARATE ACCOUNT
5.1 THE ACCOUNT
The word Account, where we use it in this policy without qualification, means
the Acacia National Life Insurance Company Separate Account I. This is a unit
investment trust registered with the SEC under the Investment Company Act of
1940. It is also subject to the laws of Virginia. We own the assets of the
Account and keep them separate from the assets of our general account.
The Account is used only to fund the variable benefits provided under this
policy and any other variable life policies supported by the Account.
The assets of the Account will be available to cover the liabilities of our
general account only to the extent that the assets of the Account exceed the
liabilities of the Account arising under the variable life policies supported by
the Account.
5.2 THE SUBACCOUNTS
The Account has a number of Subaccounts. We list those available on the policy
date on the schedule pages. The available Subaccounts may change after the
policy date. Any changes will be disclosed by the prospectus. You determine,
using whole percentages, how the net premium will be allocated among the
Subaccounts. You may choose to allocate nothing to a particular Subaccount. The
allocations to the Subaccounts along with allocations to the Fixed Account must
total 100%. The assets of each Subaccount will be used to buy shares in a
corresponding portfolio of the funding vehicles designated on the schedule
pages. See Section 5.5. Income and realized and unrealized gains or losses from
the assets of each Subaccount are credited to or charged against that Subaccount
without regard to income, gains or losses in the other Subaccounts, our general
account or any other separate accounts.
5.3 VALUATION OF ASSETS
The value of the assets of each Subaccount will be determined at the end of each
valuation date.
8065 11
<PAGE>
5.4 TRANSFER AMONG SUBACCOUNTS
You may transfer amounts among Subaccounts as often as you wish in a policy
year. The transfer will take effect on the later of the date designated in the
request or on the valuation date following receipt of the written request at our
Administrative Office.
Each transfer must be for a minimum of $100 or the balance in the Subaccount, if
less. The minimum amount which can remain in a Subaccount and/or in the Fixed
Account as a result of a transfer is $100. Any amount below this minimum must be
included in the amount transferred.
Transfers may be subject to additional restrictions by the Funds.
5.5 THE FUNDS
The word Funds, where we use it in this policy without qualification, means the
funding vehicles designated on the schedule pages. The available Funds may
change. Any changes will be disclosed in the prospectus. The Funds are
registered with the SEC under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as diversified
open-end management investment companies. The Funds bear their own expenses. The
Funds have several portfolios; there is a portfolio that corresponds to each of
the Subaccounts. We list those available on the policy date on the schedule
pages.
5.6 PORTFOLIO CHANGES
A portfolio of the Funds might, in our judgment, become unsuitable for
investment by a Subaccount. This might happen because of a change in investment
policy, because of a change in laws or regulations, because the shares are no
longer available for investment, or for some other reason. If that occurs, we
have the right to substitute another portfolio of the Funds, or to invest in
another fund. We would first notify and receive approval from the SEC and the
Virginia Insurance Department. This approval process is on file with the
insurance commissioner of the state where this policy is delivered. Any
portfolio changes will be disclosed in the prospectus. If the SEC requires that
such action receive approval from a majority of the policyholders in the
Account, then you will be notified of your right to vote. You will be notified
of any material change in the investment policy of any portfolio in which you
have an interest. If you are dissatisfied with any change, you always have the
option to transfer all or a portion of your accumulation value to the Fixed
Account (See Section 6.2) or to one of the other available Subaccounts (See
Section 5.4).
SECTION 6. THE FIXED ACCOUNT
6.1 THE FIXED ACCOUNT
Net premiums allocated to and transfers to the Fixed Account under this policy
become part of the general account assets of Acacia National Life Insurance
Company which support annuity and insurance obligations. The Fixed Account
includes all of Acacia National Life Insurance Company's assets, except those
assets segregated in separate accounts. Acacia National Life Insurance Company
maintains the sole discretion to invest the assets of the Fixed Account, subject
to applicable law.
8065 12
<PAGE>
You determine, using whole percentages, how the premium will be allocated to the
Fixed Account. You may choose to allocate nothing to the Fixed Account. The
allocations to the Fixed Account along with allocations to the Subaccounts must
total 100%.
6.2 TRANSFERS AMONG THE FIXED ACCOUNT AND THE SUBACCOUNTS
You may transfer amounts into the Fixed Account from the Subaccounts at any time
during the policy year.
You may make one transfer out of the Fixed Account to any of the other
Subaccounts only during the 30 day period following each policy anniversary.
The allowable transfer amount out of the Fixed Account is limited to the greater
of:
a. 25% of the accumulation value in the Fixed Account; or
b. any Fixed Account transfer which occurred during the prior 13 months; or
c. $1,000.
SECTION 7. ACCUMULATION VALUE
7.1 HOW ACCUMULATION VALUE OF THE POLICY IS DETERMINED
The accumulation value of this policy on the issue date is:
a. The net premiums received by us on or before the issue date; minus
b. Any monthly deductions due on or before the issue date.
The accumulation value of this policy on a valuation date is equal to the total
of the values in each Subaccount and the Fixed Account, plus the accumulation
value impaired by policy debt which is held in the general account, plus any net
premium received on that valuation date but not yet allocated.
7.2 ACCUMULATION VALUE OF THE SUBACCOUNTS
To compute the accumulation value held in the Subaccounts on any valuation date,
we multiply each Subaccount's unit value (defined in Section 7.4 below) by the
number of Subaccount units allocated to this policy.
The number of Subaccount units will increase when:
a. Net premiums are credited to that Subaccount;
b. Transfers from other Subaccounts or the Fixed Account are credited to that
Subaccount;
c. Policy debt (principal or interest) is repaid and allocated to the
Subaccount, or interest is credited from the amount held in the general
account to secure the policy debt.
8065 13
<PAGE>
The number of Subaccount units will decrease when:
a. A policy loan is taken from that Subaccount;
b. A partial withdrawal is taken from that Subaccount;
c. A portion of the monthly deduction is taken from that Subaccount;
d. A transfer is made from that Subaccount to other Subaccounts or the Fixed
Account;
e. Policy loan interest not paid when due is taken from that Subaccount; or
f. A portion of any transfer charge is taken from that Subaccount.
Each transaction above will increase or decrease the number of Subaccount units
allocated to this policy by an amount equal to the dollar value of the
transaction divided by the current unit value on the valuation date for that
transaction.
7.3 NET ASSET VALUE
The net asset value of the shares of each portfolio of the Fund is determined
once daily as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange on days
when the Exchange is open for business. The net asset value is determined by
adding the values of all securities and other assets of the portfolio,
subtracting liabilities and expenses and dividing by the number of outstanding
shares of the portfolio. Expenses, including the investment advisory fee, are
accrued daily.
7.4 SUBACCOUNT UNIT VALUE
For each Subaccount, the value of an accumulation unit (unit value) was set when
the Subaccount was established. The unit value of each Subaccount reflects the
investment performance of that Subaccount. The unit value may increase or
decrease from one valuation date to the next.
The unit value of each Subaccount on any valuation date shall be calculated as
follows:
a. The per share net asset value of the corresponding Fund portfolio on the
valuation date times the number of shares held by the Subaccount, before
the purchase or redemption of any shares on that date; minus
b. A daily charge for administrative expenses, called the asset-based
administrative expense charge, shown on the schedule page; minus
c. A daily charge for mortality and expense risk shown on the schedule
page; minus
d. Any taxes payable by the Separate Account; divided by
e. The total number of units held in the Subaccount on the valuation date
before the purchase or redemption of any units on that date.
When transactions are made, the actual dollar amounts are converted to
accumulation units. The number of accumulation units for a transaction is found
by dividing the dollar amount of the transaction by the current unit value on
the valuation date for that transaction.
8065 14
<PAGE>
7.5 ACCUMULATION VALUE OF THE FIXED ACCOUNT
The accumulation value of the Fixed Account on a valuation date is equal to:
a. The net premiums credited to the Fixed Account; plus
b. Any transfers from the Subaccounts credited to the Fixed Account; plus
c. Any policy debt (principal or interest) repaid and allocated to the Fixed
Account, or interest credited from the amount held in the general account
to secure the policy debt; minus
d. Any policy loan taken from the Fixed Account; minus
e. Any partial withdrawal and its charge taken from the Fixed Account; minus
f. The portion of the monthly deduction taken from the Fixed Account; minus
g. Any transfer made from the Fixed Account; minus
h. The portion of any transfer charge taken from the Fixed Account; minus
i. Any policy loan interest not paid when due taken from the Fixed Account; plus
j. Interest credits.
7.6 INTEREST CREDITS
We guarantee that the accumulation value in the Fixed Account will be credited
with an effective annual interest rate of at least 3.5%. We may, at our
discretion, credit a higher current rate of interest.
7.7 ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE
On each monthly activity date, one-twelfth of the annual administrative expense
charges will be deducted from the accumulation value. The maximum administrative
expense charge is shown on the schedule pages. We have the option of charging a
current administrative expense charge which can be less than the maximum. Any
current administrative expense charge will apply to all policies having the same
specified amount, policy year and policy month as this policy and whose Insureds
are the same issue age, sex and risk class as the Insureds covered by this
policy. The actual charges will be shown on your annual report.
7.8 COST OF INSURANCE
The cost of insurance will be figured each month. It is the cost of insurance
for the basic policy (including any increases in the specified amount) plus the
cost for any riders. The cost for this policy is equal to:
a. the death benefit on the monthly activity date, discounted at the guaranteed
rate of interest for the Fixed Account for one month;
b. less the accumulation value on the monthly activity date, after all monthly
deductions have been taken except for the cost of insurance;
8065 15
<PAGE>
c. the above result multiplied by the monthly cost per $1,000 of insurance (as
described below in the Cost of Insurance Rates section);
d. divided by $1,000.
The charges made during the policy year will be shown on the annual report.
7.9 COST OF INSURANCE RATES
For the initial specified amount, the cost of insurance rates will not exceed
those shown on the SCHEDULE OF GUARANTEED ANNUAL COST OF INSURANCE RATES in the
schedule pages. To calculate the monthly rates, divide by 12 and round to the
nearest six decimal places.
The guaranteed rates shown on the schedule page have been adjusted for any table
rating and/or flat extra rating.
Each year, the annual cost of insurance rates will be declared for the next
policy year. These rates will be based on the issue age, sex, tobacco usage and
risk class of each Insured and the policy duration. The rates will be adjusted
for any table rating and/or flat extra rating.
Any change in the current cost of insurance rates will apply to all Insureds of
the same issue age, sex, tobacco usage and risk class and whose policies have
been in effect for the same length of time.
7.10 MONTHLY DEDUCTION
The monthly deduction is made each policy month against the accumulation value
allocated to the Account and to the Fixed Account. Monthly deductions will be
deducted from the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account in the same proportion as
the balances held in the Subaccounts and the Fixed Account. The monthly
deduction is equal to:
a. The monthly administrative expense charge for the current policy month; plus
b. The cost of insurance for the current policy month, including the cost for
any rider.
Refer to the SCHEDULE OF GUARANTEED ANNUAL COST OF INSURANCE RATES and the
SCHEDULE OF MAXIMUM CHARGES on the schedule pages for further details.
7.11 ANNUAL REPORT
Each year the Owner will be mailed an annual report that shows the progress of
this policy. This report will show for the last policy year:
a. premiums paid;
b. expense charges;
c. investment gains/losses; and
d. cost of insurance.
8065 16
<PAGE>
As of the date of the report, the following values will be shown:
a. accumulation value;
b. specified amount of insurance;
c. death benefit; and
d. outstanding debt, if any.
7.12 ILLUSTRATIVE REPORTS
We will send you an illustration of projected future death benefits under both
guaranteed and current assumptions at any time if you send us a written request
for the illustration. If allowed by state law, a reasonable fee not to exceed
$50 may be charged for each report. The fee will be one that is in effect for
this service at the time you make the request.
The illustration will be based on assumptions as to:
a. Specified amount;
b. Type of death benefit option;
c. Future premium payments; and
d. Other necessary items.
SECTION 8. POLICY SURRENDER AND
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
8.1 SURRENDER OF THE POLICY
This policy may be surrendered for its net cash surrender value at any time
during the lifetimes of either Insured.
8.2 NET CASH SURRENDER VALUE
The amount payable upon surrender is the accumulation value on the valuation
date we receive your written request, less any surrender charges, and less any
outstanding policy debt. The net cash surrender value is payable in one lump sum
or under one of the payment options. See Section 12.
8.3 SURRENDER CHARGE
The surrender charge is based on the initial specified amount of insurance at
issue and any increase in specified amount.
8.4 PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL
A partial withdrawal of this policy may be made for any amount of at least $500
subject to the following rules:
8065 17
<PAGE>
a. The net cash surrender value remaining after a partial withdrawal must be
at least $1,000 or an amount sufficient to maintain this policy in force
for the remainder of the policy year.
b. A partial withdrawal is irrevocable.
c. The request must be made to us in writing on a form approved by us.
d. A withdrawal charge will be deducted from the amount withdrawn. The charge
will not exceed the lesser of $50 or 2% of the amount withdrawn.
Partial withdrawals will affect other policy values. The accumulation value will
be reduced by the amount of the partial withdrawal. If Death Benefit Option A is
in effect on the date of a partial withdrawal, the specified amount will be
reduced by the amount of the partial withdrawal. These reductions will also
reduce the death benefits. See Section 9. The withdrawal will affect the net
policy funding used to determine if the Guaranteed Death Benefit or Minimum
Benefit is to remain in effect. See Sections 2.3 and 2.4.
You may tell us how to allocate the partial withdrawal among the Subaccounts
and/or the Fixed Account, provided that the minimum amount remaining in a
Subaccount and/or the Fixed Account as a result of the allocation is $100. If
you do not, or if there is not enough value in any Subaccount or in the Fixed
Account, the partial withdrawal will be allocated among the Subaccounts and the
Fixed Account in the same proportion as the balances held in each Subaccount and
the Fixed Account on the date we receive the request in our Administrative
Office.
8.5 POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS
We will usually pay any amounts payable from the Subaccounts as a result of
surrender, partial withdrawal or policy loan within seven (7) days after we
receive written request in our Administrative Office on a form satisfactory to
us. We can postpone such payments or any transfers of amounts between
Subaccounts if:
a. The New York Stock Exchange is closed other than customary weekend and
holiday closings or trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted
as determined by the SEC; or
b. The SEC by order permits the postponement for the protection of
policyowners; or
c. An emergency exists as determined by the SEC, as a result of which
disposal of securities is not reasonable, practicable, or it is not
reasonable or practicable to determine the value of the net assets of the
Account.
We may defer the payment of a full surrender, partial withdrawal or policy loan
from the Fixed Account for up to six months from the date we receive your
written request.
SECTION 9. DEATH BENEFIT
9.1 DEATH BENEFIT PROCEEDS
The death benefit proceeds payable to the beneficiary upon our receipt of
satisfactory proof of the death of both Insureds while this policy is in force
will equal:
8065 18
<PAGE>
a. The death benefit; plus
b. Any additional life insurance proceeds provided by any rider; minus
c. Any outstanding policy debt; minus
d. Any overdue monthly deductions including the deduction for the month of
the second death.
9.2 INTEREST ON PROCEEDS
Death benefit proceeds that are paid in one lump sum will include interest if we
do not pay the proceeds within 30 days of receiving satisfactory proof of death
of both Insureds. The rate of interest will be the greater of:
a. 3% per annum.
b. the current rate of interest payable on death benefit proceeds.
c. the rate required by state law.
Interest will accrue from the date we receive satisfactory proof of death of
both Insureds to the date of payment of the death benefit proceeds.
9.3 DEATH BENEFIT
Subject to the provisions of this policy, the death benefit option at any time
shall be either Option A or Option B. The initial death benefit option is shown
on the schedule pages. It may be changed as described in Section 10.1.
Option A: Basic Coverage
The death benefit will be the greater of:
a. The current specified amount; or
b. A percentage of the accumulation value on the second death, where the
applicable percentage is determined from the table shown below.
Option B: Basic Coverage Plus Accumulation Value
The death benefit will be the greater of:
a. The current specified amount plus the accumulation value on the second
death; or
b. A percentage of the accumulation value on the second death, where the
applicable percentage is determined from the table shown below.

*Younger Insured's Age means age of the younger Insured on the issue date plus
the number of complete policy years this policy has been in effect.
9.4 POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENT
We will usually pay any death benefit proceeds within seven (7) days after we
receive satisfactory proof of death of both Insureds.
9.5 DEATH OF FIRST INSURED
During the period following the death of one of the Insureds but prior to the
second death, this policy will remain in force subject to the grace period. The
death of the first Insured will have no effect on the cost of insurance rates
for this policy. Satisfactory proof of death of the first Insured should be
submitted to our Administrative Office within one year of the date of death.
9.6 SIMULTANEOUS DEATH
If a simultaneous death occurs, only one death benefit is payable.

SECTION 10. POLICY CHANGES
AND EXCHANGE OF POLICY
10.1 CHANGE IN DEATH BENEFIT OPTIONS
You may change the death benefit option which is shown on the schedule pages and
is referred to in Section 9. The death benefit option may not be changed in the
first policy year and may only be changed once a year thereafter. The change
will become effective on the first monthly activity date on or next following
the date we approve your requested change.
If you change from Option A to Option B, the specified amount after the change
will equal the death benefit prior to the change, less the accumulation value as
of the date of change. A change from Option B to Option A will change the
specified amount to an amount equal to the death benefit as of the date of
change.
10.2 CHANGE IN THE SPECIFIED AMOUNT
After this policy has been in effect for one year, you can increase or decrease
the specified amount while both Insureds are living. To make a change, send a
written request to our Administrative Office. Any change will be effective on
the monthly activity date on or next following the date we approve the request,
unless you specify a later date. You may only change the specified amount once a
year.
10.3 DECREASING THE SPECIFIED AMOUNT
A decrease in the specified amount is subject to the following conditions:
a. A decrease may not be made during the first policy year nor during the
first 12 policy months following an increase in specified amount except
for a decrease which was the result of a partial withdrawal.
b. The specified amount in effect after any decrease may not be less
than $100,000.
c. No decrease is permitted which affects the tax qualifications of this
policy as described in Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code, as
amended.
10.4 INCREASING THE SPECIFIED AMOUNT
Any increase of the specified amount is subject to the following conditions:
a. An increase may not be made in the first policy year.
b. A supplemental application for the increase and satisfactory evidence of
insurability that both Insureds are insurable in the same rating classes
currently in effect for this policy.
c. The minimum amount of any increase is $50,000.
d. An increase cannot be made if either Insured was over age 85 on the most
recent policy anniversary.
8065 21
<PAGE>
e. If an increase occurs during the first five policy years the Minimum
Premium will be increased on the date of change. The Minimum Benefit
requirement will reflect the change in the Minimum Premium from the date
of change.
f. If an increase occurs during the Guaranteed Death Benefit Period, the
Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium will be increased on the date of change.
The Guaranteed Death Benefit requirement will reflect the change in the
Guaranteed Death Benefit Premium from the date of change.
g. At the time of the increase, the accumulation value, less any surrender
charges less any outstanding policy debt must be at least equal to 12
times the current month's monthly deduction reflecting the increase in
specified amount. If this value is not sufficient to support these monthly
deductions for at least one year beyond the effective date of the
increase, additional premiums may be required. You will be notified of any
additional premium due.
10.5 SURRENDER CHARGE FOR INCREASES
An additional surrender charge will be imposed under this policy for each
requested increase in specified amount. The additional surrender charge will be
deducted upon the surrender of this policy at any time during the 14 years
following the increase. The amount of the additional surrender charge is shown
in the schedule pages. The amount of the surrender charge due to the increase in
each policy year after the increase is determined by multiplying the appropriate
rate from the schedule times the amount of the requested increase and dividing
by 1000. See the Schedule of Surrender Charges for Increases.
10.6 TIME PERIOD FOR SPECIAL TRANSFER
At any time within 24 months of the policy date shown on the schedule pages you
may request a transfer of the entire accumulation value in the Subaccounts to
the Fixed Account.
SECTION 11. LOAN BENEFITS
This policy has loan benefits that are described below. The amount of
outstanding loans plus accrued interest is called outstanding policy debt. Any
outstanding policy debt will be deducted from proceeds payable at the second
death, or on surrender.
11.1 MAKING A POLICY LOAN
After the first policy anniversary, you may obtain a policy loan from us. This
policy is the only security required. The Maximum Available Loan Amount is equal
to the net cash surrender value at the time of the loan less the monthly
deductions remaining for the balance of the policy year, less interest on the
policy debt including the requested loan to the next policy anniversary date.
8065 22
<PAGE>
11.2 LOAN INTEREST
The maximum interest rate on any loan is 6% per year. We have the option of
charging less. Interest accrues daily and becomes a part of the policy debt.
Interest payments are due on each anniversary date. If interest is not paid when
due, it will be added to the policy debt and will bear interest at the rate
charged on the loan.
11.3 REDUCED LOAN INTEREST RATE
The loan interest rate will be reduced to a maximum of 4% for eligible loan
amounts. This reduced loan interest rate is available on and after the 10th
policy anniversary. The eligible loan amount for a reduced loan interest rate
will be equal to the accumulation value plus any previous withdrawals, minus
total premiums paid and minus any outstanding policy debt held at a reduced
interest rate. However, the total reduced loan amount cannot exceed the Maximum
Available Loan Amount. If a regular loan is in effect on the policy anniversary,
it will be converted to a loan with the reduced loan interest rate up to the
eligible amount. Interest on loans with a reduced interest rate will accrue at
the reduced loan rate.
11.4 OTHER BORROWING RULES
When a policy loan is made, or when interest is not paid when due, an amount
sufficient to secure the policy debt is transferred out of the Subaccounts and
the Fixed Account and into our general account. You may tell us how to allocate
that accumulation value among the Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account provided
that the amount remaining in a Subaccount or the Fixed Account as a result of
the allocation is $100. Without specific direction, the accumulation value will
be allocated among the Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account in the same
proportion that the policy's accumulation value in each Subaccount and the Fixed
Account bears to the total accumulation value in all Subaccounts and the Fixed
Account on the date we make the loan.
Accumulation value transferred into the general account to secure policy debt
will be credited with 3.5% interest annually. The interest earned will be
allocated to the Subaccounts and/or the Fixed Account in the same manner as net
premiums.
On any monthly activity date, if the policy debt exceeds the accumulation value
less any surrender charge and any accrued expense charges, you must pay the
excess. Unless the Minimum Benefit or Guaranteed Death Benefit is in effect, we
will send you a notice of the amount you must pay. If you do not pay this amount
within 61 days after we send notice, this policy will terminate without value.
We will send the notice to you and to any assignee of record at our
Administrative Office. See Section 4.1.
Any loan transaction will permanently affect the values of this policy.
11.5 REPAYING A POLICY DEBT
You can repay a policy debt in part or in full anytime during the life of either
Insured while this policy is in force. Repayment must be specifically identified
as such by you. When a loan repayment is made, accumulation value in the general
account related to that payment will be transferred into the Subaccounts and/or
the Fixed Account in the same proportion that net premiums are being allocated.
8065 23
<PAGE>
SECTION 12. PAYMENT OPTIONS
Death benefit proceeds or the net cash surrender value will be paid in one lump
sum if no option is chosen. Subject to the rules stated below, all or part of
the proceeds can be paid under a payment option. During the lifetime of either
Insured you can choose a payment option. A beneficiary can choose a payment
option if you have not chosen one at the second death.
12.1 PAYMENT OPTION RULES
There are several important payment option rules:
a. An association, corporation, partnership or fiduciary can only receive a
lump sum payment or a payment under Option b.
b. If this policy is assigned, any amount due to the assignee will first be
paid in one sum. The balance, if any, may be applied under any payment
option.
c. If the payments under any option come to less than $100 each, we have the
right to make payments at less frequent intervals.
d. The rate of interest payable under Options ai, aii and b is guaranteed at
3% compounded annually. Payments under Option c and d are based on the
1983 Individual Annuity Tables projected 17 years with an interest rate of
3%.
To choose an option, you must send a written request satisfactory to us to our
Administrative Office.
12.2 DESCRIPTION OF OPTIONS
Option ai
Interest Payment Option. We will hold any amount applied under this option.
Interest on the unpaid balance will be paid or credited each month at a rate
determined by us.
Option aii
Fixed Amount Payable Option. Each payment will be for an agreed fixed amount.
Payments continue until the amount we hold runs out.
Option b
Fixed Period Payment Option. Equal payments will be made for any period selected
up to 20 years.
Option c
Lifetime Payment Option. Equal monthly payments are based on the life of a named
person. Payments will continue for the lifetime of that person. Variations
provide for guaranteed payments for a period of time or a lump sum refund.
8065 24
<PAGE>
Option d
Joint Lifetime Payment Option. Equal monthly payments are based on the lives of
two named persons. While both are living, one payment will be made each month.
When one dies, payments will continue for the lifetime of the other. Variations
provide for a reduced amount of payment during the lifetime of the surviving
person.
SECTION 13. NOTES ON OUR COMPUTATIONS
13.1 BASIS OF COMPUTATION
In our computations, we assume that the minimum values and reserves held for
benefits guaranteed in the Fixed Account will earn interest at an annual rate of
3.5%. We use mortality rates from the Commissioners 1980 Standard Ordinary
Smoker and Nonsmoker, Male and Female Continuous Function Mortality Tables in
computing minimum values and reserves for this policy. The nonsmoker values from
these Tables are used for Insureds who are non-tobacco users and the smoker
values from these Tables are used for Insureds who are tobacco users. The male
values from these Tables are used for male Insureds. The female values from
these Tables are used for female Insureds.
13.2 METHODS OF COMPUTING VALUES
We have filed a detailed statement of the method we use to compute policy values
and benefits with the state where this policy was delivered. All these values
and benefits are not less than those required by the laws of that state.
Reserves are calculated in accordance with the Standard Non-Forfeiture Law and
Valuation Law of the state in which this policy is delivered. In no instance
will reserves be less than the net cash surrender values.

TERMINAL ILLNESS: A non-correctable medical condition that, with a reasonable
degree of medical certainty, will result in the death of the Surviving Insured
in less than 12 months from the date of the physician's statement and that was
first diagnosed while the policy was in force.
"YOU" AND "YOUR" refer to the owner of the policy to which this rider is
attached. The Owner may also be the Surviving Insured.
"WE", "US" OR "OUR" refer to Acacia National Life Insurance Company. Our
Administrative Office is at P.O. Box 82579, Lincoln, Nebraska 68501-2579.
SATISFACTORY PROOF OF TERMINAL ILLNESS
Before payment of any accelerated benefit, we will require you to provide us
with proof, satisfactory to us, that the Surviving Insured has a terminal
illness. Satisfactory proof will include a properly completed claim form and a
written statement from a duly licensed physician who is licensed in the United
States and who is not yourself or the Surviving Insured, nor related to either
the Surviving Insured or yourself. We reserve the right to obtain a second
medical opinion at our expense.
EFFECT ON YOUR POLICY
The accelerated benefit first will be used to repay any outstanding policy loans
and unpaid loan interest. The accelerated benefit will be treated as a lien
against your policy values.
Death proceeds which are payable on the death of the Surviving Insured will be
reduced by the amount of the lien and any policy loans, plus accrued interest.
After payment of the accelerated benefit, and if sufficient premium to keep the
policy in force is not paid by the end of the grace period, premiums will be
paid by an addition to the lien for up to two years from the date we receive
satisfactory proof of terminal illness. After this two year period, you are
required to pay premiums when due to keep the policy in force. If the policy
lapses, the lien, any policy loans, and accrued interest will be deducted from
any accumulation values.
Your access to the net cash surrender value of your policy and to the net cash
surrender value of any riders through policy loans, partial withdrawals, if
permitted, or full surrender is limited to any excess of the net cash surrender
value over the lien including any accrued interest.
INTEREST
We will charge interest on the amount of the lien. The interest accrues daily at
the same interest rate as the policy's loan interest rate.
TIRSL 8099
<PAGE>
Accrued interest will be added to the lien on the policy anniversary. Interest
does not continue to accrue on the lien when the lien and any policy loans, plus
accrued interest, equals the death benefit (prior to the deduction of the lien,
policy loans and accrued interest) of the policy and any riders.
CONDITIONS
The payment of any accelerated benefit is subject to the following conditions:
1. Any Eligible Coverages must be in force on the date we receive satisfactory
proof of terminal illness.
2. Any accumulation value less any applicable surrender charge must be less
than the maximum accelerated benefit.
3. We will not make payment of any accelerated benefit if that payment would
be less than $4,000.
4. The release of any collateral assignees, the release of all parties to any
"split dollar" agreements and the approval of any irrevocable beneficiaries
is required.
5. The policy must be collaterally assigned to us for an amount equal to the
lien and accrued interest. No changes to the policy are permitted without
our consent.
6. This rider allows for the accelerated payment of death benefit proceeds,
which would otherwise be payable to your beneficiary. This is not meant to
cause you to be required to access and exhaust these benefits
involuntarily. Therefore, you are not eligible for this benefit:
a. If you are required by law to use this benefit to meet the claims of
creditors, whether in bankruptcy or otherwise; or
b. If you are required by a government agency to use this benefit in
order to apply for, obtain, or otherwise keep a government benefit or
entitlement.
ADDITIONAL BENEFIT
If the maximum accelerated benefit is not paid initially, an additional
accelerated benefit may be paid up to the difference as long as this amount is
at least $4,000. This additional benefit is only available if it has been less
than 12 months from the date we received satisfactory proof of terminal illness.
We may require additional satisfactory proof of terminal illness at this time.
TOTAL ACCELERATED BENEFIT
The total amount we will pay as an accelerated benefit due to the terminal
illness of the Surviving Insured will not exceed $250,000 even if there is more
than one policy with us or one of our affiliates which provides coverage on the
Surviving Insured.
TIRSL 8099
<PAGE>
ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE
We may charge a one-time administrative charge which will be deducted from the
accelerated benefit. This charge will not exceed $50.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
Incontestability: The validity of this rider cannot be contested after it has
been in force while either Insured is alive for a period of two years from the
effective date of the rider.
REINSTATEMENT: This rider may be reinstated with the policy. It will be
reinstated if you meet the requirements for policy reinstatement. If you have
received benefits under this rider, the lien with accrued interest may be paid
or it will be reinstated as if the policy had never terminated.
TERMINATION OF RIDER: This rider will automatically terminate on the earliest of
these conditions:
1. On surrender of this rider to us; or
2. On termination of the policy to which this rider is attached.
NONPARTICIPATING: This rider is nonparticipating.
INCORPORATION OF POLICY PROVISIONS INTO RIDER:
The provisions of the policy are hereby referred to and made a part of this
rider unless otherwise specified in this rider.

DISABILITY BENEFIT RIDER on
DISABILITY of a COVERED INSURED
CONSIDERATION
This rider is issued in consideration of the application and payment of its cost
of insurance. A copy of the application is attached to the policy. The cost of
insurance for this rider is deducted from the accumulation value at the same
time and in the same manner as the cost of insurance for the policy.
DEFINITIONS
COVERED INSURED: Covered Insured means the person so named in the original
application and as shown on the schedule pages.
DISABILITY BENEFIT: For purposes of this rider, the disability benefit is an
amount shown on the schedule pages, selected by you on the application.
RIDER EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of all coverage under this rider shall
be as follows:
1. The policy date shall be the effective date for all coverage provided in
the original application.
2. For any rider issued after the policy date, the effective date shall be the
date shown on a supplement to the schedule pages.
3. For any insurance that has been reinstated, the effective date shall be the
monthly activity date on or next following the date we approve the
reinstatement.
RIDER EXPIRATION DATE: This date is also shown on the schedule pages. It is the
date on which this rider is no longer effective.
TOTAL DISABILITY: Total disability must begin after the effective date of this
rider as shown in the schedule pages and before the policy anniversary nearest
the Covered Insured's 60th birthday. It must result from bodily injury which
occurs or sickness which first manifests itself while this rider is in force.
Total Disability means:
1. Total loss of the sight of both eyes. This loss must be irrecoverable; or
2. Total loss of the use of both hands, both feet, or one hand and one foot.
This loss must be irrecoverable; or
3. The incapacity of the Covered Insured to engage in any substantial duties
of his or her occupation for at least six consecutive months. (Substantial
duties includes managerial or supervisory functions.)
DBRSL 8099
<PAGE>
During the first 24 months of total disability, occupation means the usual
work, employment, business or profession in which the Covered Insured was
engaged immediately before the date of disability. This includes
attendance at school or college as a full-time student. After 24 months of
total disability a Covered Insured who is engaged in any occupation for
remuneration or profit will not be considered totally disabled.
BENEFITS
While the Covered Insured is totally disabled, the disability benefit will be
applied as premium. The premium will be credited as of the last monthly activity
date, prior to the approval date of the claim and will be credited annually
thereafter, during continuance of total disability. In addition, while the
Covered Insured is totally disabled, the cost of insurance for this rider will
not be deducted from the accumulation value. All other monthly deductions will
apply.
You may choose to continue to pay your planned periodic premiums or make any
unscheduled premium payments while you are receiving a disability benefit.
If total disability begins after the grace period, no benefits under this rider
will be paid. If any portion of a disability benefit would affect the tax
qualifications of this policy as described in Section 7702 of the Internal
Revenue Code, as amended, the benefit payable will be reduced by that portion
considered to be excess premium.
GENERAL PROVISION
NOTICE OF DISABILITY: To receive this benefit, written notice of claim must be
received at the Home Office. It must be received: (a) while the Covered Insured
is living; (b) while the Covered Insured is totally disabled; and (c) not later
than 9 months after the Covered Insured has become totally disabled.
If such notice is not furnished in the required time limit, the claim will not
be accepted. But a late claim will be accepted if it can be shown that it was
not reasonably possible to meet the requirements and that notice was given as
soon as was reasonably possible. In no event, however, will the Covered Insured
receive any benefit under this rider for a period prior to one year before the
date on which notice was received.
PROOF OF TOTAL DISABILITY: Approval of the initial notice of claim will be
granted after we receive satisfactory written proof that the Covered Insured is
totally disabled. Proof must be presented at the Home Office: (a) while the
Covered Insured is living; (b) before total disability has ended or been
interrupted; and (c) within 12 months after we receive the notice of total
disability. Forms approved by us must be used.
Similar proof that the total disability is continuing may be required at
reasonable intervals. If the Covered Insured fails to furnish such proof, the
disability benefit will cease.
INCONTESTABILITY: While the Covered Insured is alive, the validity of this rider
cannot be contested after it has been in force for a period of 2 years from the
rider effective date.
DBRSL 8099
<PAGE>
REINSTATEMENT: Coverage under this rider may be reinstated with the policy if no
more than 3 years have passed since the date of termination. Reinstatement must
occur before the rider expiration date. Such reinstatement may occur any time
before the policy anniversary nearest the Covered Insured's 60th birthday.
The requirements for reinstatement are:
1.Receipt of evidence of insurability satisfactory to us.
2. Payment of the minimum cost of insurance sufficient to keep the rider in
force for 3 months.
EXCLUSIONS: The Covered Insured will not be eligible for the disability benefit
if the total disability on which the claim is based results from:
1. Self-inflicted bodily injury while sane or insane, other than accidental
injury; or
2. War or any act of war, whether declared or not, regardless of whether the
Covered Insured is in the armed forces.
TERMINATION OF RIDER: This rider will automatically terminate on the earliest of
these conditions:
1. On the rider expiration date;
2. On the monthly activity date on or next following the date we receive your
written request;
3. On surrender of this rider to us; or
4. On termination of the policy to which this rider is attached.
CHANGE OF POLICY: Once the disability benefit commences, you cannot change the
specified amount of insurance, the death benefit option, the mode of the planned
periodic premium payments, or change the policy to another form of insurance.
COST OF INSURANCE DEDUCTIONS AFTER THE RIDER HAS TERMINATED: We will not be
liable for the cost of insurance deductions on this rider after it terminates
except to return them.
INCORPORATION OF POLICY PROVISIONS INTO RIDER: The provisions of the policy are
hereby referred to and made a part of this rider.

Gentlemen:
With reference to the Registration Statement on Form S-6 filed by Acacia
National Life Insurance Company and Acacia National Life Insurance Company
Separate Account I with the Securities & Exchange Commission covering flexible
premium life insurance policies, I have examined such documents and such laws as
I considered necessary and appropriate, and on the basis of such examination, it
is my opinion that:
1. Acacia National Life Insurance Company is duly organized and validly
existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and has been duly
authorized to issue individual flexible premium variable life policies by
the Insurance Department of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
2. Acacia National Life Insurance Company Separate Account I is a duly
authorized and existing separate account established pursuant to the
provisions of the Code of Virginia, Section 38.2-3113.
3. The survivorship flexible premium variable universal life policies, when
issued as contemplated by said Form S-6 Registration Statement, will
constitute legal, validly issued and binding obligations of Acacia National
Life Insurance Company.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the said Form
S-6 Registration Statement and to the use of my name under the caption "Legal
Matters" in the Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement.

Gentlemen:
This opinion is furnished in connection with the registration by Acacia National
Life Insurance Company, of a survivorship flexible premium variable universal
life insurance policy ("Contract") under the Securities Act of 1933. The
prospectus included in the Registration Statement on Form S-6 describes the
Contract. The form of Contract was prepared under my direction and I am familiar
with the Registration Statement and Exhibits thereto. This contract was
developed and filed under Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 6E-3(T), as
interpreted at this time by the SEC staff. In my opinion:
The illustrations of death benefits and accumulation values included in the
section entitled "Illustrations of Death Benefits and Accumulation Values" in
the Appendices of the prospectus, based on the assumptions stated in the
illustrations, are consistent with the provisions of the Contract. The rate
structure of the Contract has not been designed so as to make the
relationship between premiums and benefits, as shown in the illustrations,
appear more favorable to prospective purchasers of the Contract for a male
age 65 and a female age 65, than to prospective purchasers of the Contract
for other ages or for two males or two females.
I hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and to the reference to my name under the heading "Experts" in the
prospectus.
Very truly yours,
/s/Peter E. Whipple
