            THE MANUFACTURERS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORTH AMERICA
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2000
                                   (UNAUDITED)



1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company
     and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with
     generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), except that they do not
     contain complete notes. However, in the opinion of management, these
     statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
     presentation of the results. These financial statements should be read in
     conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes included in
     the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
     1999. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2000 are not
     necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full
     year ending December 31, 2000.


2.   RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
     Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
     Activities" (SFAS No. 133). SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and
     reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities.
     Contracts that contain embedded derivatives, such as certain insurance
     contracts, are also addressed by the Statement. SFAS No. 133 requires that
     an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
     statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair
     value. In July 1999, the FASB issued Statement 137, which delayed the
     effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15,
     2000. The Company is evaluating the accounting implications of SFAS No. 133
     and has not determined its potential impact on the Company's results of
     operations or its financial condition.

     Total comprehensive income was as follows:

Item 2. Management's Discussion And Analysis of Results of Operations And
        Financial Condition


OVERVIEW

The Registrant, The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of North America
("MNA"), (which includes two subsidiaries, The Manufacturers Life Insurance
Company of New York ("MNY") and Manufacturers Securities Services ("MSS"),
hereinafter with MNA referred to collectively as the "Company"), is a stock life
insurance company organized under the laws of Delaware in 1979.

The following analysis of the consolidated results of operations and financial
condition of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and the related Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

MNA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Manulife-Wood Logan Holding Co.,
Inc. ("MWLH"). MWLH is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Manufacturers
Life Insurance Company ("MLI"); prior to June 1, 1999, MLI indirectly owned 85%
of MWLH, and minority shareholders associated with MWLH owned the remaining 15%
MLI is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Manulife Financial Corporation ("MFC"), a
publicly traded company, based in Toronto, Canada. MFC and its subsidiaries are
known collectively as "Manulife Financial."

Manulife Financial is a leading provider of financial protection products and
investment management services to individuals, families, businesses and groups
in selected international markets. Manulife Financial operates in 15 countries
and territories worldwide, with more than 28,000 employees and agents. Funds
under management by Manulife Financial were in excess of $112 billion (Cdn) as
of December 31, 1999 with a consolidated equity position of $6.5 billion (Cdn).

MNA is licensed to sell fixed and variable annuities, traditional life and
variable life insurance, and accident and health insurance in all states except
New Hampshire and New York. MNY is an insurance subsidiary licensed to sell
fixed and variable annuities, traditional, variable and universal life
insurance, and accident and health insurance in the State of New York only. MSS,
a majority-owned broker dealer, acts as investment adviser to the Manufacturers
Investment Trust ("MIT"), a no-load, open-end management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is the principal underwriter of
the Company's variable annuity and life insurance contracts and is the exclusive
distributor of its insurance products in the State of New York.


                                       8
<PAGE>   9


The Company, along with The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company, enjoys strong
financial ratings that enhance its ability to attract new sales and retain
assets. Distributors and consumers of variable and fixed annuity products
utilize the relative financial strength ratings as a criteria in choosing an
annuity carrier. The Company has received financial strength ratings of A++
(Superior) by A.M. Best, AA+ (Very Strong) by Standards and Poor's and Aa2
(Excellent) by Moody's Investor Services. The Company is rated AAA (Highest) by
Duff & Phelps in terms of its ability to meet contractual obligations to
policyholders.

The Company's operations are classified as either wealth management or
insurance. Through its wealth management operations, the Company offers wealth
management products and services in the form of individual and group annuities
as well as 401(k) pension products. Through its insurance operations, the
Company offers traditional, universal and variable life insurance products. The
Company's reportable operations have been determined based on differences in
product features and distribution, and are consistent with the Company's
management structure. The remainder of this discussion will focus solely on the
wealth management operations of the Company due to the limited assets and
revenues associated with the Company's insurance operations which are in a
developmental stage.

The Company's primary source of earnings from its wealth management operations
are from the sale of annuities and are comprised of fees assessed against
policyholder account balances held in the Company's separate accounts including:
mortality and expense risk charges, surrender charges, and an annual
administrative charge. In addition, the Company earns a spread between the
advisory fees charged to manage the separate account assets invested in MIT and
the subadvisory fees paid to external managers of those assets. A key factor in
the Company's profitability is sustained growth in the underlying assets through
market performance coupled with the ability to acquire and retain variable
annuity and life deposits. The Company began to sell pension products in 1998.
No significant revenues were generated from the sales of these products in
either 1999 or 2000.


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain information included herein is forward-looking with respect to the
Company, including its business operations and strategy and financial
performance and condition. These statements generally can be identified by the
use of forward-looking words such as "may", "will", "expect", "intend",
"estimate", "anticipate", "believe" or "continue" or the negative thereof or
similar variations. Although management believes that the expectations reflected
in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements involve risks
and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those expressed
or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations
include among other things, general economic and market factors, including
interest rates, business competition and changes in government regulations or in
tax laws.


REVIEW OF OPERATING RESULTS

The discussion that follows compares results for the three months ended March
31, 2000 to those for the three months ended March 31, 1999.


2000 Compared to 1999

The Company recorded net income of $15.0 million in 2000 versus net income of
$9.9 million in 1999, an increase of $5.1 million or 52%. Revenues grew by 37%
to $107.9 million due primarily to growth in fee income earned on additional
separate account assets and increased advisory profits associated with
additional assets in MIT. Separate account assets at March 31, 2000 compared to
March 31, 1999 were higher by $4.7 billion or 37%. The asset growth is
attributed to an increase in variable annuity sales and strong equity market
performance. Total sales during the first quarter of 2000 were $1.2 billion, an


                                       9
<PAGE>   10

increase of 75% over the same quarter in 1999. Total fees, including advisory
fees, generated by separate accounts and policyholder liabilities increased by
$29.3 million or 39% in 2000.

The Company incurred total benefits and expenses in 2000 of $84.7 million, an
increase of $21.0 million, or 33% compared to 1999. The additional expenses
mainly reflect an increase in general operating expenses, additional
sub-advisory expenses associated with additional assets in MIT and higher
commission financing costs. General operating expenses related to the Company's
significant growth increased approximately $8 million in 2000. The Company paid
an additional $7.5 million of sub-advisory expenses during the first quarter of
2000. The increase is associated with higher separate account asset levels in
MIT, fueled by the addition of 5 new funds in May 1999. The Company's financing
costs consist of reinsurance fees and borrowing costs. Reinsurance fees
decreased from an expense of $1.1 million at March 31, 1999 to a recovery of
$0.5 million at March 31, 2000, which can be attributed to the termination of a
reinsurance treaty in 1999. Borrowing costs increased 47% from $3.6 million at
March 31, 1999 to $5.3 million at March 31, 2000. The commission financing loan
increased by approximately $118 million over March 31, 1999 levels due to higher
cash requirements associated with increased sales volumes in the later half of
1999 and Q1 2000.


FINANCIAL POSITION

2000 Compared to 1999

Total assets increased from $17.7 billion at December 31, 1999 to $19.1 billion
at March 31, 2000, an increase of $1.4 billion or 8%. Separate account assets
increased by 8% over the first quarter of 2000 and represent 91% of total assets
as the Company continues to focus on its variable option annuity products. The
Company continues to own high quality investment grade fixed maturity
investments to support its general account liabilities and shareholder's equity.
The Company's DAC asset grew by 12% as the Company experienced increased annuity
sales volumes during the first quarter of 2000. The Company deferred the related
costs, net of current amortization, associated with those sales.

Total liabilities have increased proportionately with the growth in the related
assets, primarily in the Company's separate accounts. During the first quarter
of 2000, the Company borrowed an additional $61.3 million from MLI to support
its sales volumes and related acquisition expenses.

MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk that the Company will incur losses due to adverse
changes in market rates and prices. The primary market risk exposure for the
Company is the impact of lower than expected equity market performance on its
asset-related fee revenue. The Company also has certain exposures to changes in
interest rates.

The Company earns asset based fees on the asset levels invested in the separate
accounts. As a result, the Company is subject to equity risk and the effect
changes in equity market levels will have on the amounts invested in the
separate accounts.

Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company will incur economic losses due
to adverse changes in interest rates. This risk arises from the issuance of
certain interest sensitive annuity products and the investing of those proceeds
in fixed rate investments. The Company manages its interest rate risk through an
asset/liability management program. The Company has established a target
portfolio mix which takes into account the risk attributes of the liabilities
supported by the assets, expectations of market performance, and a generally
conservative investment philosophy. Preservation of capital and maintenance of
income flows are key objectives of this program. In addition, the Company has
diversified its product portfolio offerings to include products that contain
features that will protect it against fluctuations in interest rates. Those
features include adjustable crediting rates, policy surrender charges, and
market value adjustments on liquidations.

Based on the Company's overall exposure to interest rate and equity price risks,
the Company believes that changes in market rates would not materially affect
the consolidated near-term financial position, results of operations or
cashflows of the Company as of March 31, 2000. Refer to the Company's Annual
Report on form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of market risks.
