        This
Note Certificate is a Definitive Security in respect of a duly authorized issue of Notes (the "Notes") of the Allstate Life Global Funding Trust designated above, a statutory trust
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Trust"). The Notes are issued under the Indenture, dated as of the date hereof (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Indenture")
between the Trust and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as indenture trustee (including any successor, the "Indenture Trustee"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
shall have the respective meanings ascribed in the Standard Indenture Terms (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Standard Indenture Terms"). 



        The
Trust, for value received, hereby promises to pay to the Holder hereof or its registered assigns, on the Stated Maturity Date (or on the date of redemption or repayment by the Trust
prior to maturity pursuant to redemption or repayment provisions, in each case, if provided for above) the principal amount specified above and, if so specified above, to pay interest from time to
time on the Notes represented by this Note Certificate from the Original Issue Date specified above (the "Original Issue Date") or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been
paid or duly provided for at the rate per annum determined in accordance with the provisions on the reverse hereof and as specified above, until the principal of the Notes represented by this Note
Certificate is paid or made available for payment and to pay such other amounts due and owing with respect to the Notes represented by this Note Certificate. 


        On
any exchange or purchase and cancellation of any of the Notes represented by this Note Certificate, details of such exchange or purchase and cancellation shall be entered in the
records of the Indenture Trustee. Upon any such exchange or purchase and cancellation, the principal amount of the Notes represented by this Note Certificate shall be charged by the principal amount
so exchanged or purchased and cancelled, as provided in the Standard Indenture Terms. 


        Unless
otherwise set forth above, if the Notes are subject to an Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction as specified above, the Redemption Price of the Notes represented by this Note
Certificate shall initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage of the principal amount of the Notes represented by this Note Certificate on the Initial Redemption Date and shall decline at each
anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date (each such date, a "Redemption Date") by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction of such principal amount until the Redemption Price is 100% of such
principal amount. 


        The
Notes will mature on the Stated Maturity Date, unless their principal (or, any installment of their principal) becomes due and payable prior to the Stated Maturity Date, whether, as
applicable, by the declaration of acceleration of maturity, notice of redemption at the option of the Trust, notice of the Holder's option to elect repayment or otherwise (the Stated Maturity Date or
any date prior to the Stated Maturity Date on which the Notes become due and payable, as the case may be, are referred to as the "Maturity Date" with respect to principal of the Notes repayable on
such date). 


        Unless
otherwise provided above and except as provided in the following paragraph, the Trust will pay interest on each Interest Payment Date specified above, commencing with the first
Interest 










Payment
Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date, and on the Maturity Date; PROVIDED that any payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or other amounts to be made on any Interest Payment
Date or on a Maturity Date that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, with respect to an Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date, if
the Notes are LIBOR Notes (as defined in Section 3 on the reverse hereof) and that next succeeding Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day. 


        Unless
otherwise specified above, the interest payable on each Interest Payment Date or on the Maturity Date will be the amount equal to the interest accrued from and including the
immediately preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or from and including the date of issue, if no interest has been paid, to but excluding the applicable Interest
Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an "Interest Period"). 


        Reference
is hereby made to the further provisions of the Notes set forth on the reverse hereof and, if so specified on the face hereof, in an Addendum hereto, which further provisions
shall for all purposes have the same force and effect as if set forth on the face hereof. 


        Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if an Addendum is attached hereto or "Other/Additional Provisions" apply to the Notes as specified above, the Notes shall be subject to the terms set forth
in such Addendum or such "Other/Additional Provisions." 


        The
Notes represented by this Note Certificate shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. 








        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trust has caused this instrument to be duly executed on its behalf.

[REVERSE OF DEFINITIVE SECURITY]    
    


        SECTION
1.    GENERAL.    This Note Certificate is a Definitive Security in respect of a duly authorized issue of
Notes of the Trust. The Notes are issued pursuant to the Indenture. 


        SECTION
2.    CURRENCY.    The Notes are denominated in, and payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on, if any, and other amounts in respect of, the Notes will be in the Specified Currency designated on the face hereof. If the Notes are Foreign Currency Notes, any amounts so payable by the Trust in
the Specified Currency will be converted by the exchange rate agent designated on the face hereof (the "Exchange Rate Agent") into United States dollars for payment to the registered holders hereof
unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or a registered holder elects, in the manner described below, to receive payments in the Specified Currency. 


        If
the Specified Currency for Foreign Currency Notes is not available for any required payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if any, due to the imposition of exchange
controls or other
circumstances beyond the control of the Trust, the Trust will be entitled to satisfy the obligations to the registered holders of such Foreign Currency Notes by making payments in United States
dollars based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the
applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Trust for the purchase by
the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on that payment date in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to all registered holders of such
Foreign Currency Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the relevant
registered holders of such Foreign Currency Notes by deductions from any payments. If three bid quotations are not available, payments will be made in the Specified Currency. 



        Registered
holders of Foreign Currency Notes may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if any, in the Specified
Currency by submitting a written request to the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable Regular Interest Record Date or at least fifteen
calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. This written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by cable, telex or other form of facsimile transmission. This election will
remain in effect until revoked by written notice delivered to the Indenture Trustee on or prior to a Regular Interest Record Date or at least fifteen calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the
case may be. Registered holders of Foreign Currency Notes to be held in the name of a broker or nominee should contact their broker or nominee to determine whether and how an election to receive
payments in the Specified Currency may be made. 


        Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, if the Holder hereof elects to receive payments of principal, premium, if
any, and/or interest, if any, in the Specified Currency, the Holder must notify the Indenture Trustee of that election on or prior to the fifth Business Day after the applicable Regular Interest
Record Date or at least ten calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If complete instructions are received by the Indenture Trustee on or prior to such dates, then the Holder will
receive payments in the Specified Currency. 


        Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, if payment in the Specified Currency hereon is not available to the Trust for any required payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or
interest, if any, due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Trust's control, then the Trust will be entitled to satisfy its obligations by making payments in United
States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate, computed by the Exchange Rate Agent as described above, on the second Business Day prior to the particular payment or, if the Market Exchange
Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate. The "Market Exchange Rate" for a Specified Currency other than United States dollars means the noon dollar
buying rate in 










The
City of New York for cable transfers for the Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any
payment in respect hereof made under such circumstances in U.S. Dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture. 


        In
the event that a member state of the European Union in whose national currency is the Specified Currency becomes a participant member in the third stage of the European economic and
monetary union, the Trust may on or after the date of such occurrence, without the consent of the Holder hereof, redenominate all, but not less than all, of the Notes hereof. 



        All
determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive for all purposes and
binding on the Holder hereof and any applicable Entitlement Holders. 


        All
currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holder hereof by deduction from the payments made hereon. 


        SECTION
3.    DETERMINATION OF INTEREST RATE AND OTHER PAYMENT PROVISIONS.    



        FIXED
RATE NOTES.    If the Notes are designated on the face hereof as "Fixed Rate Notes," the Notes will bear interest from the Original Issue Date until the Maturity Date.
Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the rate of interest payable on the Notes will not be adjusted; unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, interest will be payable on the Interest
Payment Dates set forth on the face hereof and at the Maturity Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment
Date or the Maturity Date of Fixed Rate Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, any payments of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest or other amounts required to be made, may be made
on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest will accrue in respect of the payment made on that next succeeding Business Day. 



        DISCOUNT
NOTES.    If the Notes are designated on the face hereof as "Discount Notes" (as defined below), payments in respect of the Notes shall be made as set forth on the
face hereof. In the event a Discount Note is redeemed, repaid or accelerated, the amount payable to the Holder of such Note on the Maturity Date will be equal to the sum of (1) the Issue Price
(increased by any accruals of discount) and, in the event of any redemption of such Discount Notes, if applicable, multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption
Percentage Reduction, if applicable); and (2) any unpaid interest accrued on such Discount Notes to the date of redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity, as applicable. For purposes of
determining the amount of discount that has accrued as of any date on which a redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity of the Notes occurs for Discount Notes, the discount will be accrued
using a constant yield method. The constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the Initial Period (as
defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates for Discount Notes (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal to the initial coupon rate
applicable to Discount Notes and an assumption that the maturity of such Discount Notes will not be accelerated. If the period from the date of issue to the first Interest Payment Date for Discount
Notes (the "Initial Period") is shorter than the compounding period for such Discount Notes, a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding period will be accrued. If the Initial Period
is longer than the compounding period, then the period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period with the short period being treated as provided in the preceding sentence. A
"Discount Note" is any Note that has an Issue Price that is less than 100% of the principal amount thereof by more than a percentage equal to the product of 0.25% and the number of full years to the
Stated Maturity Date. 


        AMORTIZING
NOTES.    If the Notes are specified on the face hereof as "Amortizing Notes," the Notes shall bear interest at the rate set forth on the face hereof, and payments
of principal and interest shall be made as set forth on the face hereof and/or in accordance with SCHEDULE I attached hereto. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, interest on the Notes will
be computed 










on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Payments with respect to Amortizing Notes will be applied first to interest due and payable on the Notes and then to the
reduction of the unpaid principal amount of Notes represented by this Note Certificate. 


        FLOATING
RATE NOTES.    If the Notes are specified on the face hereof as "Floating Rate Notes," interest on the Notes shall accrue and be payable in accordance with this
Section 3. A Floating Rate Note may be a CD Rate Note, CMT Rate Note, Commercial Paper Rate Note, Constant Maturity Swap Rate Note, Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Note, Federal Funds Open
Rate Note, Federal Funds Rate Note, LIBOR Note, EURIBOR Note, Prime Rate Note, or Treasury Rate Note. If the Notes are designated on the face hereof as Floating Rate Notes, the face hereof will
specify whether the Notes are Regular Floating Rate Notes, Inverse Floating Rate Notes or Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Notes. For the period from the date of issue to, but not including, the first
Interest Reset Date set forth on the face hereof, the interest rate hereon shall be the Initial Interest Rate specified on the face hereof. Thereafter, the interest rate hereon will be reset as of and
be effective as of each Interest Reset Date. 



	(A)
	If
any Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that if the Notes are LIBOR Notes and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Reset Date.



	(B)
	Unless
specified otherwise on the face hereof, Interest Reset Dates are as follows: 





        (1)   if
the Notes reset daily, each Business Day, (2) if the Notes reset weekly, other than Treasury Rate Notes, the Wednesday of each week, (3) if the Notes
are Treasury Rate Notes that reset weekly, and except as provided below under "Treasury Rate Notes," the Tuesday of each week, (4) if the Notes reset monthly, the third Wednesday of each month,
unless the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate is the Interest Rate Basis (as defined below) applicable to the Notes, in which case the Notes will reset the first calendar day of the month,
(5) if the Notes reset quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year, (6) if the Notes reset semiannually, the third Wednesday of each of the two
months specified on the face hereof and (7) if the Notes reset annually, the third Wednesday of the month specified each year; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that with respect to Floating Rate/ Fixed Rate
Notes, the rate of interest thereon will not reset after the particular Fixed Rate Commencement Date specified on the face hereof (the "Fixed Rate Commencement Date"). 



	(C)
	Accrued
interest is calculated by multiplying the principal amount of such Floating Rate Note by an accrued interest factor. The accrued interest factor is computed by adding the
interest factor calculated for each day in the particular Interest Period. The interest factor for each day will be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the case of
Floating Rate Notes as to which the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, the Federal Funds Open Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR or the Prime Rate is an
applicable Interest Rate Basis, or by the actual number of days in the year, in the case of Floating Rate Notes as to which the CMT Rate or the Treasury Rate is an applicable Interest Rate Basis. In
the case of a Floating Rate Note as to which the Constant Maturity Swap Rate is the Interest Rate Basis, the interest factor will be computed by dividing the number of days in the interest period by
360 (the number of days to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days with 12 30-day months (unless (i) the last day of the interest period is the 31st
day of a month but the first day of the interest period is a day other than the 30th or 31st day of a month, in which case the month that includes that last day shall not
be considered to be shortened to a 30-day month, or (ii) the last day of the interest period is the last day of the month of February, in which case the month of February shall not
be considered to be lengthened to a 30-day month)). The interest factor for Floating Rate Notes as to which the interest rate is calculated with reference to two or more Interest Rate
Bases will be calculated in each period in the same manner as if only the applicable Interest Rate 










Basis
specified on the face hereof applied. The interest rate shall be set forth on the face hereof. For purposes of making the foregoing calculation, the interest rate in effect on any Interest Reset
Date will be the applicable rate as reset on that date. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the interest rate that is effective on the applicable Interest Reset Date will be determined on
the applicable Interest Determination Date and calculated on the applicable Calculation Date (as defined below). "Calculation Date" means the date by which the Calculation Agent designated on the face
hereof, is to calculate the interest rate which will be the earlier of (1) the tenth calendar day after the particular Interest Determination Date or, if such day is not a Business Day, the
next succeeding Business Day; or (2) the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. 



	(D)
	Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, all percentages resulting from any calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a
percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards. All dollar amounts used in or resulting from any calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded, in
the case of United States dollars, to the nearest cent or, in the case of a foreign currency, to the nearest unit (with one-half cent or unit being rounded upwards). 




        Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof and except as provided below, interest will be payable as follows: (1) if the Interest Reset Date for the Notes is daily, weekly or
monthly, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year, as specified on the face hereof, (2) if the
Interest Reset Date for the Notes is quarterly, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of March, June, September, and December of each year, (3) if the Interest Reset Date for the
Notes is semiannually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each of two months specified on the face hereof of each year, (4) if the Interest
Reset Date for the Notes is annually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of the month specified on the face hereof of each year. In each of these cases, interest will also be payable on
the Maturity Date. 


        If
specified on the face hereof, the Notes may have either or both of a Maximum Interest Rate or Minimum Interest Rate. If a Maximum Interest Rate is so designated, the interest rate
that may accrue during any Interest Period for Floating Rate Notes cannot ever exceed such Maximum Interest Rate and in the event that the interest rate on any Interest Reset Date would exceed such
Maximum Interest Rate (as if no Maximum Interest Rate were in effect) then the interest rate on such Interest Reset Date shall be the Maximum Interest Rate. If a Minimum Interest Rate is so
designated, the interest rate that may accrue during any Interest Period for Floating Rate Notes cannot ever be less than such Minimum Interest Rate and in the event that the interest rate on any
Interest Reset Date would be less than such Minimum Interest Rate (as if no Minimum Interest Rate were in effect) then the interest rate on such Interest Reset Date shall be the Minimum Interest Rate.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Notes are designated on the face hereof as Floating Rate Notes, the interest rate on Notes shall not exceed the maximum interest rate
permitted by applicable law. 


        All
determinations of interest by the Calculation Agent designated on the face hereof will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of
the Notes and neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Calculation Agent shall have any liability to the Holder of the Notes in respect of any determination, calculation, quote or rate made or provided
by the Calculation Agent. Upon request of the Holder of the Notes, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective
on the next Interest Reset Date with respect to the Notes. If the Calculation Agent is incapable or unwilling to act as such or if the Calculation Agent fails duly to establish the interest rate for
any interest accrual period or to calculate the interest amount or any other requirements, the Trust will appoint a successor to act as such in its place. The Calculation Agent may not resign its
duties until a successor has been appointed and such successor has accepted its appointment. 










        Subject
to applicable provisions of law and except as specified herein, on each Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on the Notes on and after the first Interest Reset Date shall be
the interest rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the heading below which has been designated as the Interest Rate Basis on the face hereof (the "Interest Rate Basis"), the base rate,
plus or minus the Spread, if any, specified on the face hereof and/or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof. 



	(A)
	CD
RATE NOTES.    If the Interest Rate Basis is the CD Rate, the Notes shall be deemed to be "CD Rate Notes." CD Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the CD Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any. The Calculation Agent will determine the CD Rate on each Interest Determination Date. The Interest Determination
Date is the second Business Day immediately preceding the related Interest Reset Date. "CD Rate" means the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar
certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as published in H.15(519) (as defined below) under the caption "CDs (secondary market)", or, if not so published
by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of the particular
Index Maturity as published in the H.15 Daily Update (as defined below) or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate under the heading "CDs (secondary
market)." If such rate is not yet published in either H.15(519) or the H.15 Daily Update by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the CD Rate will be the
rate on the particular Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 A.M., New York City time on that
Interest Determination Date of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York (which may include the Agents or their affiliates)
selected by the Calculation Agent for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money market banks for negotiable United States certificates of deposit with a
remaining maturity closest to the particular Index Maturity in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time, or, if the dealers so selected by the Calculation
Agent are not quoting as described in the preceding sentence, the CD Rate in effect on the particular Interest Determination Date. "H.15(519)" means the weekly statistical release designated as
H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; and "H.15 Daily Update" means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/H15/update, or any successor site or publication.



	(B)
	CMT
RATE NOTES.    If the Interest Basis is the CMT Rate, the Notes shall be deemed to be "CMT Rate Notes." CMT Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rate calculated
with reference to the CMT Rate and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any. The Calculation Agent will determine the CMT Rate on each applicable Interest Determination Date. The applicable Interest
Determination Date is the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date. "CMT Rate" means (1) if CMT Moneyline Telerate Page 7051 is specified on the face hereof: (a) the
percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at "constant maturity" having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as published in H.15(519) under the caption
"Treasury Constant Maturities", as the yield is displayed on Moneyline Telerate (or any successor service) on page 7051 (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service)
("Moneyline Telerate Page 7051"), for the particular Interest Determination Date, or (b) if the rate referred to in clause (a) does not so appear on Moneyline Telerate Page 7051, the
percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at "constant maturity" having the particular Index Maturity and for the particular Interest Determination Date as published in
H.15(519) under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities", or (c) if the rate referred to in clause (b) does not so appear in H.15(519), the rate on the particular Interest

in part in increments of $1,000 or any other integral multiple of an authorized denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining principal amount of the Notes shall be at least
$1,000 or other minimum authorized denomination applicable thereto), at the applicable Redemption Price (as defined below), together with unpaid interest accrued on the Notes, any Additional Amounts
and other amounts payable with respect thereto to the date of redemption. The Trust must give written notice to the Holders of the Notes to be redeemed at its option not more than 60 nor less than 30
calendar days prior to the date of redemption. "Redemption Price" means an amount equal to the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face hereof (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption
Percentage Reduction, if applicable) multiplied by the unpaid principal amount of Notes represented by this Note Certificate to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage, if any, shall decline at
each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by an amount equal to the applicable Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, until the Redemption Price is equal to 100% of the unpaid amount
thereof to be redeemed. 


        SECTION 5.    SINKING FUNDS AND AMORTIZING NOTES.    Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or unless
the Notes are Amortizing Notes, the Notes will not be subject to any sinking fund. If it is specified on the face hereof that the Notes are Amortizing Notes, the Trust will make payments
combining principal and interest on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the table appearing in SCHEDULE I, attached to this Note Certificate. If the Notes are Amortizing Notes, payments made on
the Notes will be applied first to interest due and payable on each such payment date and then to the reduction of the unpaid principal amount. 


        SECTION 6.    OPTIONAL REPAYMENT.    If so specified on the face hereof, the Notes will be subject to repayment
by the Trust at the option of the Holder of the Notes on the Optional Repayment Date(s) specified on the face hereof, in whole or in part in increments of U.S.$1,000 (PROVIDED that any remaining
principal amount of the Notes shall be at least U.S.$1,000), at a repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount of the Notes to be repaid, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon
to the Repayment Date (as defined below). For the Notes to be so repaid, the Indenture Trustee must receive at its corporate trust office not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the
applicable Optional Repayment Date, a properly completed Option to Elect Repayment form, which is attached hereto as Annex A, forwarded by the Holder hereof. Exercise of such repayment option
shall be irrevocable. As used herein, the term "Repayment Date" shall mean the date fixed for repayment in accordance with the repayment provisions specified above. 


        SECTION 7.    MODIFICATIONS AND AMENDMENTS.    Sections [9.1 and 9.2] of the
Standard Indenture Terms contain provisions permitting the Trust and the Indenture Trustee (1) without the consent of any Holder, to execute Supplemental Indentures for limited purposes and
take other actions set forth in the Standard Indenture Terms, and (2) with the consent of the Holders of not less than 662/3% in aggregate principal amount of Notes at the time
outstanding, evidenced as in the Standard Indenture Terms, to execute Supplemental Indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any 










manner
or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes subject to specified limitations. 



        SECTION 8.    OBLIGATIONS UNCONDITIONAL.    No reference herein to the Indenture or the Standard Indenture
Terms and no provision of the Notes or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Trust, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, interest on, or any other
amount due and owing with respect to, the Notes at the places, at the respective times, at the rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 


        SECTION 9.    COLLATERAL.    Pursuant to the Indenture, the Trust will assign the relevant Funding Agreement(s)
issued by Allstate Life Insurance Company ("Allstate Life") in connection with the issuance of the Notes (each, a "Funding Agreement") to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the holders of the Notes.
The Notes will be secured by a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral described on the face hereof (the "Collateral") in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the other persons
identified in the Standard Indenture Terms. 


        SECTION 10.    SECURITY; LIMITED RECOURSE.    The Notes are solely the obligations of the Trust, and will not
be guaranteed by any person, including but not limited to Allstate Life, Allstate Life Global Funding, any Agent, the Trust Beneficial Owner, the Delaware Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or any of
their affiliates. The Trust's obligations under the Notes will be secured by all of the Trust's rights and title in one or more Funding Agreement(s) issued by Allstate Life and other rights and assets
included in the applicable Collateral. The Holder of the Notes has no direct contractual rights against Allstate Life under the Funding Agreement(s). Under the terms of each Funding Agreement,
recourse rights to Allstate Life will belong to the Trust, its successors and permitted assignees. The Trust has pledged, collaterally assigned and granted a first priority perfected security interest
in the Collateral for the Notes to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Notes and the other persons identified in the Standard Indenture Terms. Recourse to Allstate Life under each
Funding Agreement will be enforceable only by the Indenture Trustee as a secured party on behalf of the Holders of Notes and the other persons identified in the Standard Indenture Terms. 


        SECTION 11.    EVENTS OF DEFAULT.    In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Standard Indenture Terms,
shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions
provided in the Standard Indenture Terms. If the Notes are Discount Notes, the amount of principal of the Notes that becomes due and payable upon such acceleration shall be equal to the amount
calculated as set forth in Section 3 hereof. 


        SECTION 12.    WITHHOLDING; ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS; TAX EVENT.    All amounts due in respect of the Notes will be
made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, levies, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf
of any governmental authority in the United States having the power to tax payments on the Notes unless the withholding or deduction is required by law. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof,
the Trust will not pay any additional amounts ("Additional Amounts") to Holders of the Notes in the event that any withholding or deduction is so required by law, regulation or official interpretation
thereof, and the imposition of a requirement to make any such withholding or deduction will not give rise to any independent right or obligation to redeem the Notes. If the Trust is required to pay
Additional Amounts pursuant to Section [3.1(c)] of the Standard Indenture Terms and unless otherwise specified herein, the Trust shall give a notice of redemption to
each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed not more than 75 days nor less than 30 days prior to the Redemption Date; provided that no such notice of redemption may be given earlier than
90 days prior to the earliest day on which the Trust would become obligated to pay the applicable Additional Amounts were a payment in respect of the Notes then due. Failure to give such notice
to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any
other Note or any portion thereof. "Tax Event" means that the Trust shall have become required at any time to pay Additional Amounts or if the Trust is obligated to withhold or deduct any United
States taxes with respect to any payment under the Notes 










or
if there is a material probability that the Trust will become obligated to withhold or deduct any such United States taxes or otherwise pay Additional Amounts (in the opinion of independent legal
counsel selected by Allstate Life), in each case pursuant to any change in or amendment to any United States tax laws (or any regulations or rulings thereunder) or any change in position of the
Internal Revenue Service regarding the application or interpretation thereof (including, but not limited to, Allstate Life's or the Trust's receipt of a written adjustment from the Internal Revenue
Service in connection with an audit). 


        SECTION 13.    LISTING.    Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof the Notes will not be listed on any
securities exchange. 


        SECTION 14.    NO RECOURSE AGAINST CERTAIN PERSONS.    No recourse shall be had for the payment of the
principal of or the interest on the Notes, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect thereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture, against the
Nonrecourse Parties, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such personal liability being, by the
acceptance of any Notes and as part of the consideration for issue of the Notes, expressly waived and released. 



        SECTION 15.    GOVERNING LAW.    The Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the State of New York.
