                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying condensed financial statements include the accounts of
Lincoln Benefit Life Company ("the Company"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Allstate Life Insurance Company ("ALIC"), which is wholly owned by Allstate
Insurance Company ("AIC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation
(the "Corporation").

     The condensed financial statements and notes as of June 30, 2002, and for
the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, are
unaudited. The condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. These condensed
financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Lincoln Benefit Life Company Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. The results of
operations for the interim periods should not be considered indicative of
results to be expected for the full year.

     To conform with the 2002 and year-end 2001 presentations, certain prior
year amounts have been reclassified.


PENDING ACCOUNTING STANDARD

     On July 31, 2002, the AICPA issued an exposure draft Statement of Position
("SOP") entitled "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain
Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts and for Separate Accounts". The
accounting guidance contained in the proposed SOP applies to several of the
Company's products and product features. The proposed effective date of the SOP
is fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2003, with earlier adoption
encouraged. Initial application should be as of the beginning of the fiscal
year; therefore, if adopted during an interim period of 2003, prior interim
periods should be restated. Most provisions of the proposed SOP will have a
minimal impact to the Company, however, a provision that requires the
establishment of a liability in addition to the account balance for contracts
that contain death or other insurance benefits may have a material impact on the
condensed statement of operations ceded to ALIC depending on the market
conditions at the time of adoption. Contracts affected are those that contain
provisions wherein the amounts assessed against the contractholder each period
for the insurance benefit feature are not proportionate to the insurance
coverage provided for the period. These contract provisions are commonly
referred to as guaranteed minimum death benefits. The SOP concludes, in
accordance with the Company's policy, that no liability should be recognized
during the accumulation phase for contract features that guarantee a minimum
amount for annuitization, upon election by the contractholder, at a
contractually specified future date. These product features are commonly
referred to as guaranteed minimum income benefits.

2.   REINSURANCE

     The Company has reinsurance agreements whereby premiums, contract charges,
credited interest, policy benefits and expenses are ceded to ALIC and certain
non-affiliates and are reflected net of such reinsurance in the condensed
statements of operations. The Company follows a comprehensive evaluation process
involving credit scoring and capacity to select reinsurers. Reinsurance
recoverable and the related reserve for life-contingent contract benefits and
contractholder funds are reported separately in the condensed statements of
financial position. The Company continues to have primary liability as the
direct insurer for risks reinsured.

     Investment income earned on the assets which support contractholder funds
and the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits are not included in the
Company's condensed financial statements as those assets are owned and managed
by ALIC under terms of the reinsurance agreements. The following table
summarizes amounts ceded to ALIC and non-affiliates under reinsurance
agreements.

4.   REGULATION AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


     The Company's business is subject to the effects of a changing social,
economic and regulatory environment. State and federal regulatory initiatives
have varied and have included employee benefit regulations, removal of barriers
preventing banks from engaging in the securities and insurance businesses, tax
law changes affecting the taxation of insurance companies, the tax treatment of
insurance products and its impact on the relative desirability of various
personal investment vehicles and the overall expansion of regulation. The
ultimate changes and eventual effects, if any, of these initiatives are
uncertain.

     The Company is currently defending a nationwide class action, alleging
among other things, breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of
good faith and fair dealing as a result of a change in the rate and cap on an
annuity product. The Company has been vigorously defending this suit. The
outcome of the suit is currently uncertain.

     Various other legal and regulatory actions are currently pending that
involve the Company and specific aspects of its conduct of business. Like other
members of the insurance industry, the Company is the target of an increasing
number of class action lawsuits and other types of litigation based on a variety
of issues, some of which involve claims for substantial and/or indeterminate
amounts (including punitive and treble damages) and the outcomes of which are
unpredictable. However, at this time, based on their present status, it is the
opinion of management that the ultimate liability, if any, in one or more of
these other actions in excess of amounts currently reserved is not expected to
have a material effect on the results of operations, liquidity or financial
position of the Company.

                          ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001

     THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION HIGHLIGHTS SIGNIFICANT FACTORS INFLUENCING RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION OF LINCOLN BENEFIT LIFE COMPANY
(THE "COMPANY"). IT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND RELATED NOTES THERETO FOUND UNDER PART I. ITEM 1. CONTAINED
HEREIN AND WITH THE DISCUSSION, ANALYSIS, FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO
IN PART I. ITEM 1. AND PART II. ITEM 7. AND ITEM 8. OF THE LINCOLN BENEFIT LIFE
COMPANY ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001, WHICH
INCLUDES A DISCUSSION OF THE COMPANY'S CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES.

OVERVIEW

     The Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company
("ALIC"), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Insurance Company
("AIC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation (the
"Corporation"), markets a diversified group of products to meet consumer's
lifetime needs in the areas of protection and retirement solutions through
independent insurance agents and broker/dealers, including master brokerage
agencies. Products distributed through independent insurance agents include term
life insurance; whole life; universal life; variable universal life; single
premium life; fixed annuities, including market value adjusted annuities and
equity-indexed annuities; immediate annuities; variable annuities and long-term
care products. Variable annuities and variable universal life products are also
distributed through independent broker/dealers. ALFS, Inc. ("ALFS") is the
principal underwriter for the Company's products, such as variable universal
life, variable annuities and market value adjusted annuities. ALFS is a wholly
owned subsidiary of ALIC and is a registered broker/dealer under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

     The Company has identified itself as a single segment entity.

     The assets and liabilities related to variable contracts are legally
segregated and reflected as Separate Accounts. The assets of the Separate
Accounts are carried at fair value. Separate Accounts liabilities represent the
contractholders' claims to the related assets and are carried at the fair value
of the assets. Investment income and realized capital gains and losses of the
Separate Accounts accrue directly to the contractholders and therefore are not
included in the Company's condensed statements of operations. Revenues to the
Company from the Separate Accounts consist of contract maintenance and
administration fees and mortality, surrender and expense charges, all of which
are ceded to ALIC.

     Absent any contract provision wherein the Company guarantees either a
minimum return or account value upon death or annuitization, variable annuity
and variable life contractholders bear the investment risk that the Separate
Accounts' funds may not meet their stated objectives. These guarantees are ceded
to ALIC in accordance with the reinsurance agreements.

      The Company has reinsurance agreements whereby premiums, contract charges,
credited interest, policy benefits and expenses are ceded to ALIC and certain
non-affiliates, and reflected net of such reinsurance in the condensed
statements of operations. The Company's results of operations include net
investment income and realized capital gains and losses earned on the assets of
the Company that are not transferred under the reinsurance agreements.

     ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND SIX MONTH PERIODS
                          ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001


     Net income increased 17.4% in the second quarter of 2002 compared to the
same period in 2001 due to lower realized capital losses. Net income for the
first six months of 2002 increased 32.6% compared to the same period last year
due to realized capital gains compared to realized capital losses in the prior
period partially offset by a decrease in net investment income.

     Pretax net investment income in the second quarter of 2002 was comparable
to the same period in 2001. For the first six months of 2002, pretax net
investment income decreased 2.7% compared to the same period last year. The
decrease in investment income is due to lower investment yields partially offset
by increased investment balances. Investment balances at June 30, 2002,
excluding Separate Accounts and unrealized gains and losses on fixed income
securities, increased 3.2% compared to June 30, 2001.

     After-tax realized capital losses were $73 thousand in the second quarter
of 2002 compared to $330 thousand in the same period in 2001. For the first six
months of 2002, after-tax realized capital gains were $219 thousand compared to
after-tax realized capital losses of $879 thousand in the same period last year.
Realized capital gains and losses result from the sale of fixed income
securities. Period to period fluctuations in realized capital gains and losses
are the result of timing of sales decisions reflecting management's decision on
positioning the portfolio, assessments of individual securities, overall market
conditions and write-downs when the Company determines that a decline in the
value of a security is other than temporary.

(1) Fixed income securities are carried at fair value. Amortized cost for these
securities was $171.9 million and $179.1 million at June 30, 2002 and December
31, 2001, respectively.

     Total investments were $198.0 million at June 30, 2002 compared to $193.6
million at December 31, 2001. The increase was due to positive cash flows
generated from operations and increased unrealized gains on fixed income
securities. At June 30, 2002 unrealized gains on fixed income securities were
$9.0 million compared to $7.6 million at December 31, 2001.

     At June 30, 2002, 98.1% of the Company's fixed income securities portfolio
was rated investment grade, which is defined by the Company as a security having
a rating from the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") of 1
or 2, a Moody's rating of Aaa, Aa, A or Baa, or a comparable Company internal
rating.

     Commencing in late July 2002, deterioration of U.S. credit markets
significantly escalated. For example, in July the Lehman Bothers U.S.
Investment-Grade Credit Index under-performed U.S. Treasuries by 259 basis
points, its second-worst month ever. In particular, the telecommunications,
airlines, and energy sectors in which the Company has holdings have been
adversely affected. This deterioration, along with reduced market liquidity,
could also extend to other segments of the economy and is expected to lead to
increased recognition of realized capital losses from investment write-downs and
portfolio trading in subsequent periods.

     At June 30, 2002, cash was $76.1 million compared to $43.8 million at
December 31, 2001. Cash increased due to a change in the management process for
Separate Accounts cash receipts and disbursements.

     At June 30, 2002, Contractholder funds increased $937.6 million to $10.23
billion from $9.29 billion at December 31, 2001 as the result of additional
deposits from fixed annuities and credited interest that were partially offset
by surrenders and withdrawals. At June 30, 2002, reserves for life-contingent
contract benefits increased $118.4 million to $842.4 million from $724.0 million
at December 31, 2001 resulting from increased sales of term products and sales
of annuities with life contingencies that were partially offset by benefits
paid. Reinsurance recoverable from ALIC increased correspondingly by $1.01
billion due to the increase in contractholder funds.

     At June 30, 2002 Separate Accounts assets and liabilities decreased 2.0% to
$1.53 billion as compared to the December 31, 2001 balance. The decrease was
primarily attributable to unrealized losses in the Separate Accounts investment
portfolios due to equity market conditions, surrenders and withdrawals and
expense charges, partially offset by sales of variable annuity contracts and
transfers from the fixed account contract option to variable Separate Accounts
funds.

SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY

     Shareholder's equity increased $5.0 million in the first six months of 2002
when compared to December 31, 2001, due to net income and an increase in
unrealized net capital gains and losses.

DEBT

     The Company had no outstanding debt at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001.


FINANCIAL RATINGS AND STRENGTHS

     Financial strength ratings have become an increasingly important factor in
establishing the competitive position of insurance companies and, generally, may
be expected to have an effect on an insurance company's sales. On an ongoing
basis, rating agencies review the financial performance and condition of
insurers. A multiple level downgrade, while not expected, could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. The Company shares its financial strength ratings with its parent,
ALIC, due to the 100% reinsurance agreements.

     In February 2002, Standard & Poor's affirmed its December 31, 2001 ratings.
Standard & Poor's revised its outlook for ALIC and its rated subsidiaries and
affiliates, including the Company, to "negative" from "stable". This revision is
part of an ongoing life insurance industry review being conducted by Standard &
Poor's. Moody's and A.M. Best reaffirmed their ratings and outlook for the
Company and ALIC.

LIQUIDITY


The principal sources of funds for the Company include the following activities:

     SOURCES OF FUNDS
     Statutory premiums and deposits
     Reinsurance recoveries
     Receipts of principal, interest and dividends on investments
     Sales of investments
     Capital contributions from ALIC
     Inter-company loans

The principal uses of funds for the Company include the following activities:

     USES OF FUNDS
     Payment of contract benefits, maturities, surrenders and withdrawals
     Reinsurance cessions and payments
     Operating expenses
     Purchase of investments
     Repayment of inter-company loans
     Dividends to ALIC

     Under the terms of reinsurance agreements, premiums and deposits, excluding
those relating to Separate Accounts, are transferred primarily to ALIC, which
maintains the investment portfolios supporting the Company's products. Payments
of policyholder claims, benefits, including guaranteed minimum income and death
benefits, contract maturities, contract surrenders and withdrawals and certain
operating costs, excluding those relating to Separate Accounts, are also
reimbursed primarily by ALIC, under the terms of the reinsurance agreements. The
Company continues to have primary liability as a direct insurer for risks
reinsured. The Company's ability to meet liquidity demands is dependent on
ALIC's ability to meet those obligations under the reinsurance program. ALIC's
financial strength was rated Aa2, AA+, and A+ by Moody's, Standard & Poor's and
A.M. Best, respectively, at June 30, 2002.

     The Company has entered into an inter-company loan agreement with the
Corporation. The amount of inter-company loans available to the Company is at
the discretion of the Corporation. The maximum amount of loans the Corporation
will have outstanding to all its eligible subsidiaries at any given point in
time is limited to $1.00 billion. No amounts were outstanding for the Company
under the inter-company loan agreement at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

     This document contains "forward-looking statements" that anticipate results
based on management's plans that are subject to uncertainty. These statements
are made subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

     Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current
facts and may be identified by their use of words like "plans," "expects,"
"will," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "believes," "likely," and other
words with similar meanings. These statements may address, among other things,
our strategy for growth, product development, regulatory approvals, market
position, expenses, financial results and reserves. Forward-looking statements
are based on management's current expectations of future events. We cannot
guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be accurate. However, we
believe that our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable, current
expectations and assumptions. We assume no obligation to update any
forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or
developments.

     If the expectations or assumptions underlying our forward-looking
statements prove inaccurate or if risks or uncertainties arise, actual results
could differ materially from those communicated in these forward-looking
statements. In addition to the normal risks of business, the Company is subject
to significant risk factors, including those listed below which apply to it as
an insurance business and a provider of other financial services.

o    There is uncertainty involved in estimating the availability of
     non-affiliate reinsurance and the collectibility of reinsurance and
     recoverables. This uncertainty arises from a number of factors, including
     whether losses meet the qualifying conditions of the reinsurance contracts
     and if the reinsurers have the financial capacity and willingness to pay.

     ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND SIX MONTH PERIODS
                          ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001


o    Currently, the Corporation is examining the potential exposure, if any, of
     its insurance operations from acts of terrorism. The Corporation is also
     examining how best to address this exposure, if any, considering the
     interests of policyholders, shareholders, the lending community, regulators
     and others. The Company generally does not have exclusions for terrorist
     events included in its life insurance policies. In the event that a
     terrorist act occurs, the Company may be adversely impacted, depending on
     the nature of the event. With respect to the Company's investment
     portfolio, in the event that commercial insurance coverage for terrorism
     becomes unavailable or too expensive, there could be significant adverse
     impacts on some portion of the Company's portfolio, particularly in sectors
     such as airlines and real estate. For example, certain debt obligations
     might be adversely affected due to the inability to obtain coverage to
     restore the related real estate or other property, thereby creating the
     potential for increased default risk.

o    Changes in market interest rates can have adverse effects on the Company's
     investment portfolio and investment income. Increasing market interest
     rates have an adverse impact on the value of the investment portfolio, for
     example, by decreasing unrealized capital gains on fixed income securities.
     In addition, increases in market interest rates as compared to rates
     offered on some of the Company's products could make those products less
     attractive and lead to lower sales and/or increase the level of surrenders
     on these products. Declining market interest rates could have an adverse
     impact on the Company's investment income as the Company reinvests proceeds
     from positive cash flows from operations and proceeds from maturities,
     calls and prepayments of investments into new investments that could be
     yielding less than the portfolio's average rate. Changes in market interest
     rates as compared to rates offered on some of the Company's products could
     make those products less attractive if competitive investment margins are
     not maintained, leading to lower sales and/or changes in the level of
     surrenders and withdrawals on these products.

o    The Company amortizes deferred policy acquisition costs ("DAC") related to
     interest sensitive-life and investment contracts in proportion to gross
     profits over the estimated lives of the contract periods. Periodically, the
     Company updates the assumptions underlying the estimated future gross
     profits, which include estimated future contract charges, investment
     margins and expenses, in order to reflect actual and expected experience
     and its potential impact to the valuation of DAC. Updates to these
     assumptions could potentially result in adjustment to the cumulative
     amortization of DAC. For example, reduced estimated future gross profits
     resulting from declines in contract charges assessed against the Separate
     Accounts' balances invested in equity securities which have declined in
     value, could potentially result in increased amortization of DAC. An
     adjustment, if any, may have a material effect on results of operations
     ceded to ALIC. DAC and any related adjustments are ceded to ALIC.

o    The impact of decreasing Separate Accounts balances resulting from volatile
     market conditions, underlying fund performance and sales management
     performance could cause contract charges realized by the Company, as well
     as ALIC, to decrease and lead to an increase of exposure to pay guaranteed
     minimum income and death benefits and could also result in increased
     statutory reserves for these benefits, reducing the Company's, as well as
     ALIC's statutory capital and surplus. In addition, it is possible that the
     assumptions and projections used by the Company in establishing prices for
     the guaranteed minimum death benefits and guaranteed minimum income
     benefits on variable annuities, particularly assumptions and projections
     about investment performance, do not accurately anticipate the level of
     costs the Company will ultimately incur and cede to ALIC in providing those
     benefits, resulting in adverse mortality trends that may have a material
     effect on results of operations ceded to ALIC.

o    Conditions in the U.S. and international stock markets can have an impact
     on the Company's and ALIC's variable annuities sales. In general, sales of
     variable annuities increase when the stock markets are generally rising
     over an extended period of time and decrease when stock markets are falling
     over an extended period of time.

o    In order to manage interest rate risk, from time to time the Company
     adjusts the effective duration of assets in the investment portfolio. Those
     adjustments may have an impact on the value of the investment portfolio and
     on investment income.

o    Management believes the reserves for life-contingent contract benefits are
     adequate to cover ultimate policy benefits, despite the underlying risks
     and uncertainties associated with their determination when payments will
     not occur until well into the future. Reserves are based on many
     assumptions and estimates, including estimated premiums received over the
     assumed life of the policy, the timing of the event covered by the
     insurance policy, the amount of contract benefits to be paid and the
     investment returns on the assets purchased with the premium received. The
     Company periodically reviews and revises its estimates. If future
     experience differs from assumptions, it may have a material impact on
     results of operations ceded to ALIC.

     ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND SIX MONTH PERIODS
                          ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001

o    Under current U.S. tax law and regulations, deferred and immediate
     annuities and life insurance, including interest-sensitive products,
     receive favorable policyholder tax treatment. Any legislative or regulatory
     changes that adversely alter this treatment are likely to negatively affect
     the demand for these products. In addition, recent changes in the federal
     estate tax laws will affect the demand for the types of life insurance used
     in estate planning.

o    The Company is affiliated with various entities registered under the
     federal securities laws as broker-dealers, investment advisers and/or
     investment companies. These entities are subject to the regulatory
     jurisdiction of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the National
     Association of Securities Dealers and /or, in some cases, state securities
     administrators. The laws regulating the securities products and activities
     of the entities are complex, numerous and subject to change. As with any
     highly regulated industry, there is some degree of risk of regulatory
     non-compliance; however the Company has in place various legal and
     compliance personnel, procedures and systems designed to reasonably assure
     compliance with these requirements.

o    The Company distributes its products under agreements with other members of
     the financial services industry that are not affiliated with the Company.
     Termination of one or more of these agreements due to, for example, changes
     in control of any of these entities, could have a detrimental effect on the
     Company's sales. This risk may be exacerbated due to the enactment of the
     Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, which eliminated many federal and state law
     barriers to affiliations among banks, securities firms, insurers and other
     financial service providers.

o    While positive operating cash flows are expected to continue to meet the
     Corporation's liquidity requirements, the Corporation's liquidity could be
     constrained by a catastrophe which results in extraordinary losses, a
     downgrade of the Corporation's current long-term debt rating of A1 and A+
     (from Moody's and Standard & Poor's, respectively) to non-investment grade
     status of below Baa3/BBB-, a downgrade in AIC's financial strength rating
     from Aa2, AA and A+ (from Moody's, Standard & Poor's and A.M. Best,
     respectively) to below Baa/BBB/B, or a downgrade in ALIC's or the Company's
     financial strength rating from Aa2, AA+ and A+ (from Moody's, Standard &
     Poor's and A.M. Best, respectively) to below Aa3/AA-/A-. In the event of a
     downgrade of the Corporations' rating, ALIC and its subsidiaries could also
     experience a similar downgrade.

o    The events of September 11, 2001, and the resulting disruption in the
     financial markets revealed weaknesses in the physical and operational
     infrastructure that underlies the U.S. and worldwide financial systems.
     Those weaknesses did not impair the Company's liquidity in the wake of
     September 11, 2001. However, if an event of similar or greater magnitude
     occurred in the future and if the weaknesses in the physical and
     operational infrastructure of the U.S. and worldwide financial systems are
     not remedied, the Company could encounter significant difficulties in
     transferring funds, buying and selling securities and engaging in other
     financial transactions that support its liquidity.

o    Financial strength ratings have become an increasingly important factor in
     establishing the competitive position of insurance companies and,
     generally, may be expected to have an effect on an insurance company's
     business. On an ongoing basis, rating agencies review the financial
     performance and condition of insurers and could downgrade or change a
     company's ratings due to, for example, a decline in the value of a
     company's investment portfolio or increased reserves due to additional
     minimum income or death benefit exposure resulting from market declines. A
     multiple level downgrade of either the Company or ALIC, while not expected,
     could have a material adverse effect on the Company's sales, including the
     competitiveness of the Company's product offerings, its ability to market
     products, and its financial condition and results of operations. Also, the
     rating agencies have a variety of policies and practices regarding the
     relationships among ratings of affiliated entities. As such, the ratings of
     the Company or ALIC could be affected by changes in ratings of AIC and/or
     the Corporation.

o    State insurance regulatory authorities require insurance companies to
     maintain specified levels of statutory capital and surplus. In addition,
     competitive pressures require the Company to maintain financial strength
     ratings. These restrictions affect the Company's ability to pay shareholder
     dividends to ALIC and to use its capital in other ways.

     ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND SIX MONTH PERIODS
                          ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001

o    The Company currently has Separate Account liabilities which contain death
     benefit features covered by the exposure draft Statement of Position
     ("SOP") entitled "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for
     Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration Contracts and for Separate Accounts".
     The Company does not currently hold liabilities for death benefit features
     covered by the SOP. If adopted, the Company's establishment of liabilities
     with respect to the contracts could have a material impact on the statement
     of operations ceded to ALIC, however the market values at the time of
     adoption will affect the amount of the liability required.

o    Following enactment of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, federal
     legislation that allows mergers that combine commercial banks, insurers and
     securities firms, state insurance regulators have been collectively
     participating in a reexamination of the regulatory framework that currently
     governs the United States insurance business in an effort to determine the
     proper role of state insurance regulation in the U.S. financial services
     industry. In addition, members of Congress have introduced or discussed
     measures to permit optional federal chartering, and thus regulation, of
     some types of insurance business, such as life insurance and annuities. We
     cannot predict whether any state or federal measures will be adopted to
     change the nature or scope of the regulation of the insurance business or
     what affect any such measures would have on the Company.

o    The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 permits mergers that combine commercial
     banks, insurers and securities firms under one holding company. Until
     passage of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Glass Steagall Act of 1933 had
     limited the ability of banks to engage in securities-related businesses and
     the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 had restricted banks from being
     affiliated with insurers. With the passage of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act,
     bank holding companies may acquire insurers and insurance holding companies
     may acquire banks. In addition, grandfathered unitary thrift holding
     companies, including The Allstate Corporation, may engage in activities
     that are not financial in nature. The ability of banks to affiliate with
     insurers may materially adversely affect all of the Company's product lines
     by substantially increasing the number, size and financial strength of
     potential competitors.


o    In some states, mutual insurance companies can convert to a hybrid
     structure known as a mutual holding company. This process converts
     insurance companies owned by their policyholders to become stock insurance
     companies owned (through one or more intermediate holding companies)
     partially by their policyholders and partially by stockholders. Also, some
     states permit the conversion of mutual insurance companies into stock
     insurance companies (demutualization). The ability of mutual insurance
     companies to convert to mutual holding companies or to demutualize may
     materially adversely affect all of our product lines by substantially
     increasing competition for capital in the financial services industry.


o    The impact of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 on the business of the Company
     is being evaluated but cannot be determined at this time.
