PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE DEPOSITOR OR REGISTRANT Incorporated herein by reference to Item 26 of Post-Effective Amendment No. 44 to the Registration Statement on Form N-4 (File No. 33-34370), as filed on December 13, 2000. ITEM 27. NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS As of October 31, 2000, there were 583,777 individuals holding interests in variable annuity contracts funded through Variable Annuity Account C. ITEM 28. INDEMNIFICATION Section 33-779 of the Connecticut General Statutes ("CGS") provides that a corporation may provide indemnification of or advance expenses to a director, officer, employee or agent only as permitted by Sections 33-770 to 33-778, inclusive, of the CGS. Reference is hereby made to Section 33-771(e) of the CGS regarding indemnification of directors and Section 33-776(d) of CGS regarding indemnification of officers, employees and agents of Connecticut corporations. These statutes provide in general that Connecticut corporations incorporated prior to January 1, 1997 shall, except to the extent that their certificate of incorporation expressly provides otherwise, indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents against "liability" (defined as the obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine, including an excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan, or reasonable expenses incurred with respect to a proceeding) when (1) a determination is made pursuant to Section 33-775 that the party seeking indemnification has met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 33-771 or (2) a court has determined that indemnification is appropriate pursuant to Section 33-774. Under Section 33-775, the determination of and the authorization for indemnification are made (a) by the disinterested directors, as defined in Section 33-770(3); (b) by special counsel; (c) by the shareholders; or (d) in the case of indemnification of an officer, agent or employee of the corporation, by the general counsel of the corporation or such other officer(s) as the board of directors may specify. Also, Section 33-772 provides that a corporation shall indemnify an individual who was wholly successful on the merits or otherwise against reasonable expenses incurred by him in connection with a proceeding to which he was a party because he was a director of the corporation. Pursuant to Section 33-771(d), in the case of a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation or with respect to conduct for which the director, officer, agent or employee was adjudged liable on the basis that he received a financial benefit to which he was not entitled, indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding against the corporation to which the individual was named a party. The statute does specifically authorize a corporation to procure indemnification insurance on behalf of an individual who was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation. Consistent with the statute, Aetna Inc. has procured insurance from Lloyd's of London and several major United States and international excess insurers for its directors and officers and the directors and officers of its subsidiaries, including the Depositor.

LOCATION OF ACCOUNTS AND RECORDS All accounts, books and other documents required to be maintained by Section 31(a) of the 1940 Act and the rules under it relating to the securities described in and issued under this Registration Statement are located at the home office of the Depositor as follows: Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company 151 Farmington Avenue Hartford, Connecticut 06156 ITEM 31. 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 28, 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, [1988 WL 1235221 *13 (S.E.C.)]. (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. (f) Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company represents that the fees and charges deducted under the contracts covered by this registration statement, in the aggregate, are reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and the risks assumed by the insurance company. SIGNATURES As required by the Securities Act of 1933, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Registrant, Variable Annuity Account C of Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company, certifies that it meets the requirements of Securities Act Rule 485(b) for effectiveness of this Post-Effective Amendment to its Registration Statement on Form N-4 (File No. 333-01107) and has duly caused this Post-Effective Amendment to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Hartford, State of Connecticut, on the 13th day of December, 2000.
