PART C (OTHER INFORMATION) Information required to be included in Part C is set forth under the appropriate item, so numbered, in Part C to this Registration Statement. PARTS A AND B The Prospectus and the Statement of Additional Information are incorporated into Part A and Part B of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 10 , respectively, by reference to Post-Effective Amendment No. 6 to the Registration Statement on Form N-4 (File No. 33-75986), as filed electronically on April 22, 1996 and by reference to Supplements dated June 21, 1996, September 3, 1996 and September 13, 1996, as contained in Post-Effective Amendment Nos. 7, 8 and 9, respectively, to the Registration Statement on Form N-4 (File No. 33-75986), as filed electronically on June 21, 1996, August 30, 1996 and September 13, 1996, respectively. VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT C Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company Supplement dated December ___, 1996 to the Prospectus dated May 1, 1996 Aetna Plus -- Retirement Plus Tax-Deferred Annuity Plans THE INFORMATION IN THIS SUPPLEMENT UPDATES AND AMENDS THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE PROSPECTUS DATED MAY 1, 1996 (THE "PROSPECTUS") AND SHOULD BE READ WITH THAT PROSPECTUS. CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS The following replaces the second paragraph under the "Administrative Expense Charge" section on page 6 of the Prospectus. Under the Contract, the amount of the administrative expense charge may be of an amount equal, on an annual basis, to a maximum of 0.25% of the daily net assets of the Subaccounts. Effective April 4, 1997, the administrative expense charge during the Accumulation Period will equal, on an annual basis, 0.25% for Contracts effective prior to October 31, 1996 where the number of participants with assets in the Contract is less than 30 as of November 30, 1996 and the Contract Holder has chosen not to elect one of the Company's electronic standards for cash collection and application of participant contribution data. The administrative expense charge will not be imposed for participants who enrolled in a group contract prior to May 1, 1984. There is currently no administrative expense charge during the Annuity Period. Once an Annuity Option is elected, the charge will be established and will be effective during the entire Annuity Period. FEE TABLE The following information replaces the "Indirect Charges" section of the Fee Table. INDIRECT CHARGES. Each Subaccount pays these expenses out of its assets. The charges are reflected in the Subaccount's daily Accumulation Unit Value and are not charged directly to an Account. For all Contracts except those for which an Administrative Expense Charge is imposed (see "Charges and Deductions"), Indirect Charges are: MORTALITY AND EXPENSE CHARGE........................ 1.25% ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE....................... 0.00% ----- TOTAL SEPARATE ACCOUNT CHARGES...................... 1.25% ----- ----- Form No. X75986.3 December 1996 For Contracts for which an Administrative Expense Charge is imposed (see "Charges and Deductions"), Indirect Charges are: MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE................... 1.25% ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE....................... 0.25% ----- TOTAL SEPARATE ACCOUNT CHARGES...................... 1.50% ----- ----- HYPOTHETICAL ILLUSTRATION The following amends the "Hypothetical Illustration" section of the Prospectus to add Examples that reflect the imposition of an Administrative Expense Charge to the Examples contained in the Prospectus. THIS EXAMPLE IS PURELY HYPOTHETICAL. IT SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES OR EXPECTED RETURN. ACTUAL EXPENSES AND/OR RETURN MAY BE MORE OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN BELOW. The following Examples illustrate the expenses that would have been paid assuming a $1,000 investment in the Contract and a 5% return on assets. For the purposes of these Examples, the maximum maintenance fee of $15.00 that can be deducted under the Contract has been converted to a percentage of assets equal to 0.107%.

PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE DEPOSITOR OR REGISTRANT Incorporated herein by reference to Item 26 of Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form N-4 (File No. 333-01107), as filed electronically on August 2, 1996. ITEM 27. NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS As of August 31,1996, there were 589,843 individuals holding interests in variable annuity contracts funded through Variable Annuity Account C. ITEM 28. INDEMNIFICATION Reference is hereby made to Section 33-320a of the Connecticut General Statutes ("C.G.S.") regarding indemnification of directors and officers of Connecticut corporations. The statute provides in general that Connecticut corporations shall indemnify their officers, directors, employees, agents, and certain other defined individuals against judgments, fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses actually incurred in connection with proceedings against the corporation. The corporation's obligation to provide such indemnification does not apply unless (1) the individual is successful on the merits in the defense of any such proceeding; or (2) a determination is made (by a majority of the board of directors not a party to the proceeding by written consent; by independent legal counsel selected by a majority of the directors not involved in the proceeding; or by a majority of the shareholders not involved in the proceeding) that the individual acted in good faith and in the best interests of the corporation; or (3) the court, upon application by the individual, determines in view of all the circumstances that such person is reasonably entitled to be indemnified. C.G.S. Section 33-320a provides an exclusive remedy: a Connecticut corporation cannot indemnify a director or officer to an extent either greater or less than that authorized by the statute, e.g., pursuant to its certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or any separate contractual arrangement. However, the statute does specifically authorize a corporation to procure indemnification insurance to provide greater indemnification rights. The premiums for such insurance may be shared with the insured individuals on an agreed basis. Consistent with the statute, Aetna Life and Casualty Company has procured insurance from Lloyd's of London and several major United States excess insurers for its directors and officers and the directors and officers of its subsidiaries, including the Depositor, which supplements the indemnification rights provided by C.G.S. Section 33-320a to the extent such coverage does not violate public policy. ITEM 29. PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER (a) In addition to serving as the principal underwriter and depositor for the Registrant, Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company (ALIAC) also acts as the principal underwriter and investment adviser for Aetna Variable Encore Fund, Aetna Variable Fund, Aetna Series Fund, Inc., Aetna Generation Portfolios, Inc., Aetna Income Shares, Aetna Investment Advisers Fund, Inc., Aetna GET Fund, and Aetna Variable Portfolios, Inc. (all registered investment management companies under the 1940 Act). Additionally ALIAC also acts as the principal underwriter and depositor for Variable Life Account B and Variable Annuity Accounts B and G (separate accounts of ALIAC registered as unit investment trusts under the 1940 Act). ALIAC also acts as the principal underwriter for Variable Annuity Account I (a separate account of Aetna Insurance Company of America registered as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act). (b) See Item 25 regarding the Depositor. (c) Compensation as of December 31, 1995:

MANAGEMENT SERVICES Not applicable ITEM 32. UNDERTAKINGS Registrant hereby undertakes: (a) to file a post-effective amendment to this registration statement on Form N-4 as frequently as is necessary to ensure that the audited financial statements in the registration statement are never more than sixteen months old for as long as payments under the variable annuity contracts may be accepted; (b) to include as part of any application to purchase a contract offered by a prospectus which is part of this registration statement on Form N-4, a space that an applicant can check to request a Statement of Additional Information; and (c) to deliver any Statement of Additional Information and any financial statements required to be made available under this Form N-4 promptly upon written or oral request. (d) The Company hereby represents that it is relying upon and complies with the provisions of Paragraphs (1) through (4) of the SEC Staff's No-Action Letter dated November 22, 1988 with respect to language concerning withdrawal restrictions applicable to plans established pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. See American Counsel of Life Insurance; SEC No-Action Letter, [1989 Transfer Binder] Fed. SEC. L. Rep. (CCH) PARA78,904 at 78,523 (November 22, 1988). (e) Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. SIGNATURES As required by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Registrant, Variable Annuity Account C of Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company, has duly caused this Post-Effective Amendment No. 10 to its Registration Statement on Form N-4 (File No. 33-75986) to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Hartford, State of Connecticut, on the 1st day of October, 1996.
