Board of Directors
Northern Life Insurance
Company and Contract Owners of
Separate Account One:



     We have audited the  accompanying  statement of assets and  liabilities  of
Northern  Life  Separate  Account  One as of  December  31, 1996 and the related
combined statements of operations and changes in Contract Owners' equity for the
year ended  December  31, 1996 and the period from  October 20, 1995 to December
31, 1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of
Northern Life Insurance Company.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.

     We have conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Our procedures include
confirmation of the securities owned as of December 31, 1996, by  correspondence
with the Account  custodians.  An audit also includes  assessing the  accounting
principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as well as
evaluating the overall  financial  statement  presentation.  We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material  respects,  the  financial  position of Northern  Life  Separate
Account One as of December  31,  1996,  and the  results of its  operations  and
changes in Contract  Owners' equity for the year ended December 31, 1996 and the
period from October 20, 1995 to December 31, 1995, in conformity  with generally
accepted accounting principles.

     Fred  Alger  Management,  Inc.  is the  investment  adviser  for  the  four
     portfolios of The Alger  American Fund and is paid fees for its services by
     the Alger American Fund Portfolios.  Fidelity Management & Research Company
     is the investment  advisor for Fidelity's  Variable Insurance Products Fund
     (VIPF) and Variable  Insurance  Products  Fund II (VIPF II) and is paid for
     its  services  by the  VIPF and VIPF II  Portfolios.  Northstar  Investment
     Management  Corporation,  an affiliate of Northern  Life, is the investment
     adviser for the three  Northstar  Funds and is paid for its services by the
     Northstar Funds.

     SECURITIES VALUATION TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME:
     The market value of investments in the Sub-Accounts is based on the closing
     net  asset  values  of the  Fund  shares  held  at the  end of the  period.
     Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order
     to purchase or redeem is  executed)  and  dividend  income and capital gain
     distributions  are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net realized gains and
     losses on redemptions of shares of the Funds are determined on the basis of
     specific identification of Fund share costs.

     VARIABLE ANNUITY RESERVES:
     The amount of the reserves  for  contracts  in the  distribution  period is
     determined  by actuarial  assumptions  which meet  statutory  requirements.
     Gains or  losses  resulting  from  actual  mortality  experience,  the full
     responsibility  for  which is  assumed  by  Northern  Life,  are  offset by
     transfers to, or from Northern Life.

2.   FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
     Under  current  tax law,  the income,  gains and losses  from the  separate
     account investments are not taxable to either the Account or Northern Life.

3.   CONTRACT CHARGES:
     No deduction is made for a sales charge from the purchase payments made for
     the contracts.  However, on certain  surrenders,  Northern Life will deduct
     from the contract value a surrender charge as set forth in the contract.

     Certain  charges are made by Northern  Life to  Contract  Owners'  Variable
     Account Contract Value in accordance with the terms of the Contracts. These
     charges may include: an annual contract charge of $30 from each contract on
     the anniversary date or at the time of surrender, if surrender is at a time
     other than the anniversary date; a daily administrative charge; and a daily
     charge for mortality and expense risk assumed by Northern Life.

     Various states and other  governmental  units levy a premium tax on annuity
     contracts issued by insurance  companies.  If the owner of a contract lives
     in a state which levies such a tax,  Northern Life may deduct the amount of
     the  tax  from  the  purchase  payments  received  or  the  Contract  Value
     immediately before it is applied to an Annuity Payout.

4.   INVESTMENTS:
     The net  realized  gains on  redemptions  of fund shares for the year ended
     December  31, 1996,  and the period from October 20, 1995 (date  operations
     commenced) to December 31, 1995, were as follows (in thousands):
