PRE-SUBSTITUTION SUPPLEMENT DATED MAY 1, 2002

PROSPECTUS DATED MAY 1, 2002

FOR

FUTURITY SURVIVORSHIP VARIABLE UNIVERSAL LIFE INSURANCE

ISSUED BY SUN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA (U.S.)

SUN LIFE OF CANADA (U.S.) VARIABLE ACCOUNT I

Proposed Substitutions of Funds

On December 27, 2001, Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.)("the Company" or "Sun Life of Canada (U.S.)") filed an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") seeking an order approving the substitution of shares of certain investment portfolios of Alger American Fund ("Alger") and OCC Accumulation Trust ("OCC Trust") currently held by Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Variable Account I for shares of certain investment portfolios of Sun Capital Advisers Trust ("Sun Capital"). To the extent required by law, approvals of such substitutions will also be obtained from the state insurance regulators in certain jurisdictions. If such approvals are granted, the Alger American Growth Portfolio, Alger American Income & Growth Portfolio, Alger American Small Capitalization Portfolio, OCC Equity Portfolio, OCC Managed Portfolio, OCC Mid Cap Portfolio and OCC Small Cap Portfolio will no longer be available investment options under your policy.

Effect of the Substitutions

The effect of the substitutions would be to replace each of the portfolios of Alger and OCC Trust shown in Column I with the corresponding portfolios of Sun Capital shown in Column II:

Column I (Replaced Funds)	Column II (Substitute Funds)
Alger American Growth Portfolio	SC Alger Growth Fund**
Alger American Income & Growth Portfolio	SC Alger Income & Growth Fund**
Alger American Small Capitalization Portfolio	SC Alger Small Capitalization Fund**
OCC Equity Portfolio*	SC Value Equity Fund**
OCC Managed Portfolio*	SC Value Managed Fund**
OCC Mid Cap Portfolio*	SC Value Mid Cap Fund**
OCC Small Cap Portfolio*	SC Value Small Cap Fund**

*Not offered as investment options to policies issued on or after July 17, 2000.

**Available for investment on May 1, 2002.

The Alger and OCC Replaced Funds have similar investment objectives to their respective Substitute Funds. Policy owners and prospective purchasers should carefully read the Sun Capital prospectus dated May 1, 2002.

The advisers to each of the Sun Capital Funds will also serve as subadvisers to the corresponding Substitute Funds. Sun Capital and its adviser, Sun Capital Advisers, Inc. ("SC Advisers") have received an exemptive order from the SEC permitting SC Advisers, subject to the approval of Sun Capital's board of trustees, to select subadvisers to serve as portfolio managers of the funds or to materially modify an existing subadvisory contract without obtaining shareholder approval of a new or amended subadvisory contract. SC Advisers has ultimate responsibility to oversee and to recommend the hiring, termination and replacement of any subadviser.

With respect to the Replaced Funds, the Company will not exercise any rights reserved under your policy to impose restrictions on transfers from the Replaced Funds or Substitute Funds until at least thirty (30) days after the proposed substitutions occur.

If the proposed substitutions are carried out, each policy owner affected by the substitutions will be sent a written notice informing them that the substitutions were carried out.

The Replaced Funds will be closed for all future payments, allocations and transfers on May 1, 2002 and thereafter.

THIS SUPPLEMENT SHOULD BE READ AND RETAINED FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

This prospectus describes the variable portions of a last survivor combination fixed and variable universal life insurance policy (the "Policy") issued by Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) ("we" or "us"), a member of the Sun Life Financial group of companies. The Policy is being offered, depending on the circumstances, as either an individual policy or as a certificate under a group policy.

The Policy allows "you," the policyowner, within certain limits, to:

choose the type and amount of insurance coverage you need and increase or decrease that coverage as your insurance needs change;

choose the amount and timing of premium payments;

allocate net premium payments among 38 Investment Options (including 37 variable investment options and one fixed account investment option) and transfer Account Value among available investment options as your investment objectives change; and

access your Policy's Account Value through loans and partial or total surrenders.

This prospectus contains important information you should understand before purchasing a Policy. We use certain special terms which are defined in Appendix A. You should read this prospectus carefully and keep it for future reference.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved these securities or determined that this prospectus is accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

We have not authorized anyone to provide you with information that is different.

Summary of Policy

Right of Return Period

You may return your Policy to us for any reason and receive a refund within 10 days from the date of receipt of your Policy. A longer period may apply in some states.

Premium Payments

You must make a minimum initial premium payment, the amount of which will vary based on various factors, including the age, sex and rating class of each Insured.

Thereafter, you choose the amount and timing of premium payments, within certain limits.

You may allocate your net premium payments among the Policy's available investment options.

Death Benefit

o o	The Policy's death benefit is payable upon the death of the last of two Insureds to die. You have a choice of two death benefit options-

Specified Face Amount is the minimum amount of life insurance in your Policy.	o	the Specified Face Amount; or
	o	the sum of the Specified Face Amount and the Account Value of your Policy.

For each option, the death benefit may be greater if necessary to satisfy federal tax laws.

After the first Policy Year, you may:

change your death benefit option;

increase the Specified Face Amount, subject to satisfactory evidence of insurability; or

decrease the Specified Face Amount, provided that the Specified Face Amount after the decrease is not less than an amount we specify in your Policy.

The Variable Account

o o	We have established a variable separate account to fund the variable benefits under the Policy. The assets of the variable separate account are insulated from the claims of our general creditors.

Investment Options

You may allocate your net premium payments among the 37 variable Sub-Accounts and the fixed account option listed on page ii of this prospectus.

Each Sub-Account invests exclusively in shares of a mutual fund portfolio.

You may transfer amounts from one Sub-Account to another or to the Fixed Account Value, subject to any limits that may be imposed by the Funds.

You may transfer amounts from the fixed account option, subject to our rules as they may exist from time to time.

Supplemental Benefits

o	You may supplement your Policy with the following riders where available-

o o	estate preservation; maturity extension with full death benefit.

o	We will deduct the cost, if any, of the rider(s) from your Policy's Account Value on a monthly basis.

Accessing Your Account Value

Cash Surrender Value is Account Value minus any surrender charges and the amount of any Policy Debt.

The Surrender Charge Period ends 15 years after you purchase or increase the Specified Face Amount of your Policy.

You may borrow from us using your Account Value as collateral. Loans may be taxable events if your Policy is a "modified endowment contract" for federal income tax purposes and the value of your Policy exceeds its cost.

You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value. If you surrender your Policy during the Surrender Charge Period, you will incur any applicable surrender charges.

You may make a partial surrender of some of your Policy's Cash Surrender Value after the Policy has been in force for one year. A partial surrender will cause a decrease in the Specified Face Amount of your Policy if your death benefit option is the Specified Face Amount.

Account Value

o	Your Policy's Account Value will reflect-

Account Value is the sum of the amounts in each Sub-Account and the Fixed Account Value with respect to your Policy.

the premiums you pay;

the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select, and/or the interest credited in the fixed account option;

any loans or partial surrenders;

the charges we deduct under the Policy.

Policy Charges and Deductions

Expense Charge Applied to Premium-We will deduct a charge from your premium payments as a sales load and for our federal, state and local tax obligations. For the first Policy Year, the charge is 10% of premiums up to an amount specified in the policy which is based on certain factors, including the Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The charge on premiums in excess of that amount is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25%. The current charge is 5.25%. For Policy Year 2 and thereafter, the charge on all premiums is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25%. The current charge is 5.25%.

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge-We deduct a daily charge from your Variable Account Value for the mortality and expense risks we assume with respect to the Policy. The guaranteed maximum and current daily rate is equivalent to an annual rate of 0.50% of the Variable Account Value.

Monthly Cost of Insurance Charge-We will deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value for the cost of insurance. Our guaranteed Monthly Cost of Insurance rates are based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Smoker and Nonsmoker Mortality Tables. The applicable charge will vary based on the amount of insurance coverage you request and other factors, including the age, sex and rating class of each Insured.

Monthly Face Amount Charge-We deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value for the first 10 Policy Years following the issuance of your Policy based on the initial Specified Face Amount and for the first 10 Policy Years following the effective date of each increase in the Specified Face Amount, if any, based on the amount of increase. The applicable charge is equal to the initial Specified Face Amount or the amount of increase, as the case may be, times a rate that varies based on the age and rating class of each Insured.

Monthly Cost of Supplemental Benefits-We will deduct an increased cost of insurance charge monthly for the cost, if any, of any supplemental benefit riders issued with your Policy. The applicable charge will vary based on various factors which may include, among others, the amount of coverage and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured.

Surrender Charges-We will deduct a surrender charge from your Account Value if you surrender your Policy or request a decrease in the Specified Face Amount during the surrender charge period. There is a separate surrender charge period for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount you request, which starts on the date we issue Your Policy and on the effective date of the increase, respectively. Each surrender charge period will generally end after 15 Policy Years, but may end sooner under certain circumstances. The surrender will be an amount based on certain factors, including the Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The greatest surrender charge that might apply to a combination of Insureds is $45.00 per $1,000 of Specified Face Amount. The following are examples of surrender charges at representative Issue Ages.

o

Interest on Policy Loans-Policy loans accrue interest daily at 4% annually during Policy Years 1 through 10 and 3% annually thereafter.

You should read the Funds' prospectuses before investing.

The information relating to Fund expenses was provided by the Funds and we have not independently verified it. You should consult the Fund prospectuses for more information about Fund expenses.

All expense figures are shown after expense reimbursements or waivers, except for the bracketed figures which show what the expense figures would have been absent reimbursement. All expense figures are based on actual expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, except that the expense figures shown for SC^SMAlger Growth Fund, SC^SM Alger Income & Growth Fund and SC^SM Alger Small Capitalization Fund are estimates for the year 2002. No actual expense figures are shown for these Funds because each of them commenced operations in either April or May of 2002 and, therefore, has less than 10 months of investment experience.

The investment advisers to the following Goldman Sachs VIT Funds have voluntarily agreed to reduce or limit certain "Other Expenses" of such Funds (excluding management fees, taxes, interest, and brokerage fees, litigation, indemnification and other extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed a certain percentage per annum of such Funds' average daily net assets:

Fee waivers and expense reimbursements for the Goldman Sachs VIT Funds may be discontinued at any time.

Effective May 1, 2002, the following funds' names will change from AIM V.I. Growth and Income and AIM V.I. International Equity to AIM V.I. Core Equity Fund and AIM V.I. International Growth Fund, respectively.

The management fee for the OCC Equity Portfolio, the OCC Managed Portfolio, the OCC Mid Cap Portfolio and the OCC Small Cap Portfolio decreases to 0.75% as the daily net assets of each Portfolio exceed $400 million, and decreases to 70% as the daily net assets of each Portfolio exceed $800 million. Total Portfolio expenses for the OCC Equity, Managed, Mid Cap and Small Cap Portfolios are limited by the investment manager so that their respective annualized operating expenses (net of any expense offset) do not exceed 1.00% of average daily net assets. If such limitation was not in effect, the expenses for the OCC Mid Cap Portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2001 would have been 1.15%.

For the year ended December 31, 2001, the investment adviser waived all investment advisory fees of all Funds other than Sun Capital Investment Grade Bond Fund^SM, Sun Capital Money Market Fund^SM, Sun Capital Real Estate Fund^SM, SC^SM Value Mid Cap Fund, SC^SM Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund and SC^SM Select Equity Fund for which the investment adviser waived a portion of its fees. Fee waivers and expense reimbursements for the Sun Capital Adviser Trust Funds may be discontinued at any time. To the extent that the expense ratio of any Fund in the Sun Capital Advisers Trust falls below the Fund's expense limit, the Fund's adviser reserves the right to be reimbursed for management fees waived and Fund expenses paid by it during the prior two years.

Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) ("Sun Life U.S.") has applied to the Securities and Exchange Commission for an order approving the substitution of shares of the SC^SM Alger Funds and SC^SM Value Funds for shares of certain other mutual funds held by Sun Life U.S. separate accounts that issue variable annuity and variable life insurance products. If the order is granted, the adviser will contractually limit its management fee and reimburse the nonmanagement expenses of the SC^SM Alger Funds and the SC^SM Value Funds for a period of two years form the date of the substitution.

The management fee for each of the SC^SM Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund, SC^SM Investors Foundation Fund and SC^SM Select Equity Fund decreases to 0.75%, 0.70% and 0.70% respectively, as the daily net assets of each Fund exceed $300 million.

Unless otherwise specified, allocations to Alger American Growth Fund, Alger American Income & Growth Fund and Alger American Small Capitalization Fund received on or after May 1, 2002 will be directed to SC^SM Alger Growth Fund, SC^SM Alger Income & Growth Fund and SC^SM Alger Small Capitalization Fund respectively.

The management fees for each of the SC^SM Value Funds decreases to 0.75% as the daily net assets of each Fund exceed $400 million, and decreases to 0.70% as the daily net assets of each Fund exceed $800 million.

What If Charges and Deductions Exceed Cash Surrender Value?

Your Policy will terminate if your Cash Surrender Value at the beginning of any Policy Month is less than the charges and deductions then due.

We will send you notice and allow you a 61 day Grace Period.

If, within the Grace Period, you do not make a premium payment sufficient to cover all accrued and unpaid charges and deductions, your Policy will terminate at the end of the Grace Period without further notice.

Minimum Premium Test (No-Lapse Guarantee)

Your insurance coverage will remain in force during the first five Policy Years even if your Policy's Cash Surrender Value is insufficient to keep the Policy in force, provided that your Policy meets certain requirements.

Reinstatement

If your Policy terminates due to insufficient value, we will reinstate it within five years at your request, subject to certain conditions.

Maturity

Your Policy will terminate when the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 100. If either Insured is living and your Policy is in force on the Maturity date, your Policy's Cash Surrender Value will be payable to you.

Maturity Extension

The Maturity date may be extended at your request. The death benefit will be your Account Value on the date of the last Insured to die.

Federal Tax Considerations

Your purchase of, and transactions under, your Policy may have tax consequences that you should consider before purchasing a Policy. You may wish to consult a tax adviser. In general, the beneficiary will receive Policy Proceeds without there being taxable income. Increases in Account Value will not be taxable as earned, although there may be income tax due on a full or partial surrender of your Policy or on policy loans.

We are a stock life insurance company incorporated under the laws of Delaware on January 12, 1970. Our executive office mailing address is One Sun Life Executive Park, Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts 02481. We do business in 50 states and the District of Columbia and we have an insurance company subsidiary that does business in New York. We are an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada ("Sun Life (Canada)").

Sun Life (Canada) completed its demutualization on March 22, 2000. As a result of the demutualization, a new holding company, Sun Life Financial Services of Canada, Inc. ("Sun Life Financial"), is now the ultimate parent of Sun Life (Canada) and the Company. Sun Life Financial, a corporation organized in Canada, is a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with common shares listed on the Toronto, New York, London and Manila stock exchanges.

The Variable Account

We established Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Variable Account I in accordance with Delaware law on December 1, 1998. The Variable Account may also be used to fund benefits payable under other life insurance policies issued by us.

We own the assets of the Variable Account. The income, gains or losses, realized or unrealized, from assets allocated to the Variable Account are credited to or charged against the Variable Account without regard to our other income, gains or losses.

The assets of the Variable Account are insulated from our general liabilities.

We will at all times maintain assets in the Variable Account with a total market value at least equal to the reserves and other liabilities relating to the variable benefits under all policies participating in the Variable Account. Those assets may not be charged with our liabilities from our other business. Our obligations under those policies are, however, our general corporate obligations.

The Variable Account is registered with the SEC.

The Variable Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") as a unit investment trust. Registration under the 1940 Act does not involve any supervision by the SEC of the management or investment practices or policies of the Variable Account.

The Variable Account has 31 Sub-Accounts. Each Sub Account invests exclusively in shares of a single mutual fund portfolio.

The Variable Account is divided into 37 Sub-Accounts. Each Sub-Account invests exclusively in shares of a corresponding investment portfolio of a registered investment company (commonly known as a mutual fund). We may in the future add new or delete existing Sub-Accounts. The income, gains or losses, realized or unrealized, from assets allocated to each Sub-Account are credited to or charged against that Sub-Account without regard to the other income, gains or losses of the other Sub-Accounts. All amounts allocated to a Sub-Account will be used to purchase shares of the corresponding mutual fund. The Sub-Accounts will at all times be fully invested in mutual fund shares. The Variable Account may contain certain sub-accounts which are not available under the Policy.

The Funds

The Fund Prospectuses have more information about the Funds, and may be obtained from us without charge.

The Policy offers a number of Fund options, which are briefly discussed below. Each Fund is a mutual fund registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or a separate series of shares of such a mutual fund. More comprehensive information, including a discussion of potential risks, is found in the current prospectuses for the Funds (the "Fund Prospectuses"). The Fund Prospectuses should be read in connection with this prospectus. A copy of each Fund Prospectus may be obtained without charge by calling (800) 700-6554, or writing to Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.), One Sun Life Executive Park, Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts 02481.

Although the investment objectives and policies of the Funds may be similar to those of other mutual funds managed by the Funds' investment advisers, the investment results of the Funds can differ significantly from those of such other mutual funds.

Some of the Funds' investment advisers may compensate us for administering the Funds as investment options under the Policy. Such compensation is paid from advisers' assets.

The Funds may also be available to separate accounts offering variable annuity and variable life products of other affiliated and unaffiliated insurance companies, as well as our other separate accounts. Although we do not anticipate any disadvantages in this, there is a possibility that a material conflict may arise between the interests of the Variable Account and one or more of the other separate accounts participating in the Funds. A conflict may occur due to a change in law affecting the operations of variable life and variable annuity separate accounts, differences in the voting instructions of policyowners and those of other companies, or some other reason. In the event of conflict, we will take any steps necessary to protect policyowners, including withdrawal of the Variable Account from participation in the Funds which are involved in the conflict or substitution of shares of other Funds.

Fees and Expenses of the Funds

Fund shares are purchased at net asset value, which reflects the deduction of investment management fees and certain other expenses. The management fees are charged by each Fund's investment adviser for managing the Fund and selecting its portfolio of securities. Other Fund expenses can include such items as interest expense on loans and contracts with transfer agents, custodians and other companies that provide services to the Fund.

The Fund expenses are assessed at the Fund level and are not direct charges against Variable Account assets or reductions from Cash Values. These expenses are taken into consideration in computing each Fund's net asset value, which is the share price used to calculate the Unit Values of the Variable Account. The table contained in the front part of this prospectus shows annual expenses paid by the Funds as a percentage of average net assets.

The management fees and other expenses of the Funds are more fully described in the Fund Prospectuses. The information relating to the Fund expenses was provided by the Fund and was not independently verified by us.

Our General Account

Fixed account investments are not securities and we are not an investment company.

Our general account consists of all of our assets other than those in our variable separate accounts. Subject to applicable law, we have sole discretion over the investment of our general account assets.

Interests in our general account offered through the fixed account investment option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and our general account has not been registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

You may allocate net premiums to the fixed account investment option and may transfer any portion of your investments in the Sub-Accounts to the fixed account. You may also transfer a portion of your investment in the fixed account to any of the variable Sub-Accounts. Transfers may be subject to certain restrictions.

Fixed account investments earn at least 3% interest.

An investment in the fixed account option does not entitle you to share in the investment experience of our general account. Instead, we guarantee that your fixed account investment will accrue interest daily at an effective annual rate of at least 3%, without regard to the actual investment experience of our general account. We may, at our sole discretion, credit a higher rate of interest, but are not obligated to do so.

Investment Programs

Dollar Cost Averaging. You may select, at no extra charge, a dollar cost averaging program by allocating a minimum of $5,000 to a Sub-Account designated by us. Each month or quarter, a level amount will be transferred automatically, at no cost, to one or more Sub-Accounts chosen by you, up to a maximum of twelve. The program continues until your Account Value allocated to the program is depleted or you elect to stop the program.

The main objective of a dollar cost averaging program is to minimize the impact of short-term price fluctuations. Since the same dollar amount is transferred to other available investment options at set intervals, dollar cost averaging allows you to purchase more Units (and, indirectly, more Fund shares) when prices are low and fewer Units (and, indirectly, fewer Fund shares) when prices are high. Therefore, a lower average cost per Unit may be achieved over the long-term. A dollar cost averaging program allows you to take advantage of market fluctuations. However, it is important to understand that a dollar cost averaging program does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.

Asset Rebalancing. Once your money has been allocated among the investment options, the earnings may cause the percentage invested in each investment option to differ from your allocation instructions. You can direct us to automatically rebalance your policy to return to your allocation percentages by selecting our asset rebalancing program. The rebalancing will be on a calendar quarter, semi-annual or annual basis, depending on your instructions. The minimum amount of each rebalancing is $1,000.

There is no charge for asset rebalancing. In addition, rebalancing will not be counted against any limit we may place on your number of transfers in a Policy Year. You may not select dollar cost averaging and asset rebalancing at the same time. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate this program at anytime. We also reserve the right to waive the $1,000 minimum amount for asset rebalancing.

Asset Allocation. One or more asset allocation investment programs may be made available in connection with your Policy, at no extra charge. An asset allocation program provides for the allocation of your Account Value among the available investment options. These programs will be fully described in a separate brochure. You may elect to enter into an asset allocation investment program under the terms and conditions described in the brochure.

About the Policy

The Issue Date is the date we produce your Policy on our system and is specified in your Policy.

Policy Application, Issuance and Initial Premium

To purchase a Policy, you must first submit an application to our Principal Office. We may then follow certain underwriting procedures designed to determine the insurability of the proposed Insureds. We offer the Policy on a regular (medical) underwriting basis and may require medical examinations and further information before the proposed application is approved. Both Insureds must be acceptable risks based on our underwriting limits and standards. We may, however, issue a Policy based on the health of one Insured where the other Insured would not normally be an acceptable risk for comparable individual life insurance coverage. A Policy cannot be issued until the underwriting process has been completed to our satisfaction. We reserve the right to reject an application that does not meet our underwriting requirements or to apply extra charges for the underwriting classification for an Insured which will result in increased Monthly Cost of Insurance charges.

You must specify certain information in the application, including the Specified Face Amount, the death benefit option and supplemental benefits, if any. The Specified Face Amount generally may not be decreased below $100,000--the "Minimum Specified Face Amount."

While your application is being reviewed, we may make available to you temporary last survivor life insurance coverage if you have signed a Policy Application and, at that same time, submitted a separate signed application for temporary coverage and made an advance payment. The temporary coverage, if available, begins on the date that separate application for it is signed, has a maximum amount and is subject to other conditions.

Pending approval of your application, any advance payments will be held in our general account. Upon approval of the application, we will issue to you a Policy on the lives of the Insureds. A specified minimum Initial Premium is due and payable as of the date of issue for the Policy. The Effective Date of Coverage for your Policy will be the later of-

the Issue Date, or

the date a premium is paid equal to or in excess of the specified Initial Premium.

If an application is not approved, we will promptly return all advance payments to you.

Right of Return Period

If you are not satisfied with your Policy, it may be returned by delivering or mailing it to our Principal Office or to the representative from whom the Policy was purchased within 10 days from the date of receipt of your Policy (the "Right of Return Period"). A longer period may apply in some states.

A Policy returned under this provision will be deemed void. You will receive a refund equal to the sum of all premium payments made, if required by applicable state insurance law; otherwise, your refund will equal the sum of-

the difference between any premium payments made, including fees and charges, and the amounts allocated to the Variable Account;

the value of the amounts allocated to the Variable Account on the date the cancellation request is received by us at our Principal Office; and

any fees or charges imposed on amounts allocated to the Variable Account.

Unless you are entitled under applicable law to receive a full refund of premiums paid, you bear all of the investment risks with respect to the amount of any net premiums allocated to the Variable Account during the Right of Return Period.

During the Right of Return Period, we will allocate the net premium payments to the Sun Capital Money Market Sub-Account or to the fixed account investment option, whichever we specify in your Policy. Upon expiration of the Right of Return Period, the Account Value in that Sub-Account or in the fixed account option, as applicable, will be transferred to the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account and to the fixed account option in accordance with your allocation instructions.

Premium Payments

All premium payments must be made payable to Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) and mailed to our Principal Office. The Initial Premium will be due and payable as of your Policy's Issue Date. Additional premium payments may be paid to us subject to the limitations described below.

Premium. We reserve the right to limit the number of premium payments we accept in a year. No premium payment may be less than $50 without our consent, although we will accept a smaller premium payment if necessary to keep your Policy in force. We reserve the right not to accept a premium payment that causes the death benefit to increase by an amount that exceeds the premium received. Evidence of insurability satisfactory to us may be required before we accept any such premium.

We will not accept premium payments that would, in our opinion, cause your Policy to fail to qualify as life insurance under applicable federal tax law. If a premium payment is made in excess of these limits, we will accept only that portion of the premium within those limits, and will refund the remainder to you.

Net Premiums. The net premium is the amount you pay as the premium less the Expense Charges Applied to Premium.

Allocation of Net Premium. Except as otherwise described herein, net premium will be allocated in accordance with your allocation percentages. You must allocate at least 5% of net premium to any Sub-Account you choose. Percentages must be in whole numbers. We reserve the right to limit the number of Sub-Accounts to which you may allocate your Account Value to not more than 20 Sub-Accounts.

Premiums received prior to the end of the Right of Return Period will be credited to the Sun Capital Money Market Sub-Account or to the fixed account investment option whichever we specify in your Policy. Your initial allocation percentages will take effect at the end of the Right of Return Period.

You may change your allocation percentages at any time by telephone or written request to our Principal Office. Telephone requests will be honored only if we have a properly completed telephone authorization form for you on file. We, our affiliates and the representative from whom you purchased your Policy will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. We will use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. You will be required to identify yourself by name and a personal identification number for transactions initiated by telephone. An allocation change will be effective as of the date we accept receipt of the request for that change.

Planned Periodic Premiums. While you are not required to make additional premium payments according to a fixed schedule, you may select a planned periodic premium schedule and corresponding billing period, subject to our limits. We will send you reminder notices for the planned periodic premium at each billing period as specified in your Policy, unless reminder notices have been suspended as described below. You are not required, however, to pay the planned periodic premium; you may increase or decrease the planned periodic premium subject to our limits, and you may skip a planned payment or make unscheduled payments. You may change your planned payment schedule or the billing period, subject to our approval. Depending on the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select, the planned periodic premium may not be sufficient to keep your Policy in force, and you may need to change your planned payment schedule or make additional payments in order to prevent termination of your Policy. We will suspend reminder notices at your written request, and we reserve the right to suspend reminder notices if premiums are not being paid (except for notices in connection with the Grace Period). We will notify you prior to suspending reminder notices.

Death Benefit

If your Policy is in force at the time of the death of the last Insured to die, we will pay the beneficiary an amount based on the death benefit option in effect once we have received Due Proof of the death of each Insured. The amount payable will be:

the amount of the selected death benefit option, plus

any amounts payable under any supplemental benefits added to your Policy, minus

the value of any Policy Debt on the date of the last Insured to die, minus

any Unpaid Policy Charges.

You may select between two death benefit options.

We will pay this amount to the beneficiary in one lump sum, unless we and the beneficiary agree on another form of settlement.

The policy has two death benefit options.

Option A. Under this option, the death benefit is-

o o	the Policy's Specified Face Amount on the date of the last Insured to die; or, if greater, the Policy's Account Value on the date of death of the last Insured to die multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the table set forth in Appendix B.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want the death benefit to remain level over time.

Option B. Under this option, the death benefit is-

o o	the sum of the Specified Face Amount and Account Value of the Policy on the date of death of the last Insured to die; or, if greater, the Policy's Account Value on the date of death of the last Insured to die multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the table set forth in Appendix B.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want your death benefit to change with your Policy's Account Value.

You may change your death benefit option after the first Policy Year. If you change from Option B to Option A, the Specified Face Amount will be increased by an amount equal to the Policy's Account Value on the effective date of change. If you change from Option A to Option B, the Specified Face Amount will be decreased by an amount equal to the Policy's Account Value on the effective date of the change.

Changes in Specified Face Amount

You may increase or decrease the Specified Face Amount within certain limits.

You may increase or decrease the Specified Face Amount of your Policy within certain limits.

Minimum Changes. Each increase in the Specified Face Amount must be at least $20,000. We reserve the right to change the minimum amount by which you may change the Specified Face Amount.

Increases. To request an increase, you must provide satisfactory evidence of insurability for each Insured. Once requested, an increase will become effective at the next policy anniversary following our approval of your request. The Policy does not allow for an increase if the Attained Age of either Insured is greater than 80 on the effective date of the increase.

Decreases. A decrease will become effective at the beginning of the next Policy Month following our approval of your request. The Specified Face Amount after the decrease must be at least $250,000. Surrender charges will apply to decreases in the Specified Face Amount during the surrender charge period except for decreases in the Specified Face Amount resulting from a change in the death benefit option or a partial surrender.

For purposes of determining surrender charges and later cost of insurance charges, we will apply a decrease in Specified Face Amount in the following order-

first, to the most recent increase;

second, to the next most recent increases, in reverse chronological order; and

finally, to the initial Specified Face Amount.

Accessing Your Account Value

If you surrender your Policy and receive its Cash Surrender Value, you may incur surrender charges, taxes and tax penalties.

Surrenders and Surrender Charges

You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value at any time while the Insured is living. If you do, the insurance coverage and all other benefits under the Policy will terminate.

Cash Surrender Value is your Policy's Account Value less the sum of-

the outstanding balance of any Policy Debt; and

any surrender charges.

We will deduct surrender charges from your Account Value if you surrender your Policy or request a decrease in the Specified Face Amount during the surrender charge period. There are separate surrender charges for the initial Specified Face Amount and any increase in the Specified Face Amount you request. The surrender charge period will start on your Policy's Issue Date and on the effective date for the increase, respectively. The surrender charge period will be the shortest of-

the 15-year period following the applicable surrender charge period start date;

the longer of the 9-year period following the applicable surrender charge period start date, and the period ending when the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 85; and

the period ending when the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 95.

We will determine your Cash Surrender Value at the next close of business on the New York Stock Exchange after we receive your written request for surrender at our Principal Office.

If you surrender your Policy, we will apply a surrender charge to the initial Specified Face Amount and to each increase in the Specified Face Amount other than an increase resulting from a change in the death benefit option. The surrender charge will be calculated separately for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount. The surrender charge will be an amount based on certain factors, including the Policy's Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The greatest surrender charge that might apply to a combination of Insureds is $45.00 per $1,000 of Specified Face Amount. The following are examples of surrender charges at representative Issue Ages.

First Year Surrender Charges

Per $1,000 of Specified Face Amount

(Male/Female Insured Pair, Non-tobacco)

Issue Ages 35&35

$8.48
Issue Ages 45&45

$27.22

Issue Ages 65&65

$40.02
Issue Ages 75&75

$45.00
Issue Ages 85&85

$45.00

The surrender charge will be calculated based on the surrender charge percentages for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount. The surrender charge percentages begin at 100% in the first year and decrease with time. Examples of surrender charge percentages at representative Issue Ages are shown below.

For policies delivered in Pennsylvania, surrender charges in the first policy year are lower for certain issue ages.

A surrender charge will be applied for each decrease in the Specified Face Amount except for decreases in the Specified Face Amount resulting from a change in death benefit option or partial surrender. These surrender charges will be applied in the following order:

first, to the most recent increase;

second, to the next most recent increases, in reverse chronological order; and

third, to the initial Specified Face Amount.

	On a decrease in the initial Specified Face Amount, you will pay a proportion of the full surrender charge based on the ratio of the Face Amount decrease to the Initial Face Amount. The surrender charge you pay on a decrease that is less than the full amount of an increase in Specified Face Amount will be calculated on the same basis. Future surrender charges will be reduced by any applicable surrender charges for a decrease in the Specified Face Amount. You may allocate any surrender charges resulting from a decrease in the Specified Face Amount among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Value. If you do not specify the allocation, then the surrender charges will be allocated proportionally among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Value in excess of any Policy Debt. Partial Surrenders
	You may make a partial surrender of your Policy once each Policy Year after the first Policy Year by written request to us. Each partial surrender must be for at least $200, and no partial surrender may be made-
.	o o	during the first ten Policy Years for more than 20 percent of your Cash Surrender Value at the end of the first Valuation Date after we receive your request or thereafter for more than your Cash Surrender Value.
	If the applicable death benefit option is Option A, the Specified Face Amount will be decreased by the amount of the partial surrender. We will apply the decrease to the initial Specified Face Amount and to each increase in Specified Face Amount in the following order-
	o o o	first, to the most recent increase; second, to the next most recent increases, in reverse chronological order; and third, to the initial Specified Face Amount.
	We will not accept requests for a partial surrender if the Specified Face Amount remaining in force after the partial surrender would be less than the minimum Specified Face Amount. We will effect a partial surrender at the next close of business on the New York Stock Exchange after we receive your written request for surrender. Policy Loans
You may borrow from us using your Policy as collateral.	You may request a policy loan of up to 90% of your Policy's Cash Value, decreased by the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt on the date the policy loan is made. Your Policy will terminate for no value subject to a Grace Period if the Policy Debt exceeds the Cash Value. During the first five Policy Years, however, your Policy will not terminate if it satisfies the minimum premium test. You may allocate the policy loan among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Value. If you do not specify the allocation, then the policy loan will be allocated proportionally among the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Value in excess of any Policy Debt. Loan amounts allocated to the Sub-Accounts will be transferred to the Fixed Account Value. We will periodically credit interest at an effective annual rate of 3% on the loaned values of the Fixed Account Value. Interest on the policy loan will accrue daily at 4% annually during Policy Years 1 through 10 and 3% annually thereafter. This interest will be due and payable to us in arrears on each policy anniversary. Any unpaid interest will be added to the principal amount as an additional policy loan and will bear interest at the same rate and will be assessed in the same manner as the prior policy loan. There is no definitive guidance concerning the tax treatment of a policy loan when the interest rate credited to the loan is the same as the interest rate charged against the loan. You should therefore consult your tax adviser regarding loan amounts in Policy Years 11 and thereafter. All funds we receive from you will be credited to your Policy as premium unless we have received written notice, in a form satisfactory to us, that the funds are for loan repayment. In the event you have a loan against the Policy, it is generally advantageous to repay the loan rather than make a premium payment because premium payments incur expense charges whereas loan repayments do not. Loan repayments will first reduce the outstanding balance of the policy loan and then accrued but unpaid interest on such loans. We will accept repayment of any policy loan at any time before Maturity. A policy loan, whether or not repaid, will affect the Policy Proceeds payable upon the Insured's death and the Account Value because the investment results of the Sub-Accounts will apply only to the non-loaned portion of the Account Value. The longer a loan is outstanding, the greater the effect is likely to be and, depending on the investment results of the Sub-Accounts or the Fixed Account Value while the loan is outstanding, the effect could be favorable or unfavorable. Transfer Privileges The Policy is not designed for professional market timing organizations or other entities using programmed and frequent transfers. If you wish to employ such strategies, you should not purchase a Policy. Accordingly, such transfers may be subject to special restrictions. Subject, however, to these special restrictions and to our rules as they may exist from time to time and to any limits that may be imposed by the Funds, you may at any time transfer to another Sub-Account all or a portion of the Account Value allocated to a Sub-Account or to the Fixed Account Value. We will make transfers pursuant to an authorized written or telephone request to us. Telephone requests will be honored only if we have a properly completed telephone authorization form for you on file. We, our affiliates and the representative from whom you purchased your Policy will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. We will use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. For transactions initiated by telephone, you will be required to identify yourself by name and a personal identification number. Transfers may be requested by indicating the transfer of either a specified dollar amount or a specified percentage of the Fixed Account Value or the Sub-Account's value from which the transfer will be made. If you request a transfer based on a specified percentage of the Fixed Account Value or the Sub-Account's value, that percentage will be converted into a request for the transfer of a specified dollar amount based on application of the specified percentage to the Fixed Account Value or the Sub-Account's value at the time the request is received. We reserve the right to limit the number of Sub-Accounts to which you may allocate your Account Value to not more than 20 Sub-Accounts. Transfer privileges are subject to our consent. We reserve the right to impose limitations on transfers, including, but not limited to: (1) the minimum amount that may be transferred; and (2) the minimum amount that may remain in a Sub-Account following a transfer from that Sub-Account. We reserve the right to restrict amounts transferred to the Variable Account from the Fixed Account Value to 20% of that portion of the Account Value attributable to the Fixed Account Value as of the end of the previous Policy Year. We reserve the right to restrict amounts transferred to the Fixed Account Value from the Variable Account to 20% of that portion of the Account Value attributable to the Variable Account as of the end of the previous Policy Year. We further reserve the right to restrict amounts transferred to the Fixed Account Value from the Variable Account in the event the portion of the Account Value attributable to the Fixed Account Value would exceed 30% of the Account Value. Account Value Your Account Value is the sum of the values in each Sub-Account of the Variable Account with respect to your Policy, plus the amount of the Fixed Account Value. The Account Value varies depending upon the Premiums paid, Expense Charges Applied to Premium, Mortality and Expense Risk Percentage charges, Monthly Face Amount Charges, Monthly Cost of Insurance charges, partial surrenders, fees, policy loans and the net investment factor (described below) for the Sub-Accounts to which your Account Value is allocated.

A Valuation Date is any day on which we, the applicable Fund, and the NYSE are open for business.

The Valuation Period is the period of time from

one determination of Unit Values to the next.

The Investment Start Date is the date we apply your first premium payment, which will be the later of the Issue Date, the policy date or the Valuation Date we receive a premium equal to or in excess of the Initial Premium.

is established at $10.00 for the first Valuation Date of the Sub-Account. The Unit Value for any subsequent Valuation Date is equal to the Unit Value for the preceding Valuation Date multiplied by the net investment factor (determined as provided below). The Unit Value of a Sub-Account for any Valuation Date is determined as of the close of the Valuation Period ending on that Valuation Date.

Transactions are processed on the date we receive a premium at our Principal Office or any acceptable written or telephonic request is received at our Principal Office. If your premium or request is received on a date that is not a Valuation Date, or after the close of the New York Stock Exchange on a Valuation Date, the transaction will be processed on the next Valuation Date.

The Account Value attributable to each Sub-Account of the Variable Account on the Investment Start Date equals:

the portion of net premium received and allocated to the Sub-Account, minus

the portion of the Monthly Face Amount Charges due on the policy date and subsequent Monthly Anniversary Days through the Investment Start Date charged to the Sub-Account, minus

that portion of the Monthly Cost of Insurance deductions due from the policy date through the Investment Start Date charged to the Sub-Account.

The Account Value attributable to each Sub-Account of the Variable Account on subsequent Valuation Dates is equal to:

the Account Value attributable to the Sub-Account on the preceding Valuation Date multiplied by that Sub-Account's net investment factor, plus

the portion of net premium received and allocated to the Sub-Account during the current Valuation Period, plus

any amounts transferred by you to the Sub-Account from another Sub-Account or from the Fixed Account Value during the current Valuation Period, minus

any amounts transferred by you from the Sub-Account to another Sub-Account or to the Fixed Account Value during the current Valuation Period, minus

that portion of any partial surrenders deducted form the Sub-Account during the current Valuation Period, minus

that portion of any policy loan or capitalized loan interest transferred from the Sub-Account to the Fixed Account Value during the current Valuation Period, minus

that portion of any surrender charges associated with a decrease in the Specified Face Amount charged to the Sub-Account during the current Valuation Period, minus

if a Monthly Anniversary Day occurs during the current Valuation Period, that portion of the Monthly Face Amount Charge for the Policy Month just beginning charged to the Sub-Account, minus

if a Monthly Anniversary Day occurs during the current Valuation Period, that portion of the Monthly Cost of Insurance for the Policy Month just ending charged to the Sub-Account.

Net Investment Factor. The Net Investment Factor for each Sub-Account for any Valuation Period is determined by deducting the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge for each day in the Valuation Period from the quotient of (1) and (2) where:

(1) is the net result of-

the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Sub-Account determined as of the end of the Valuation Period, plus

the per share amount of any dividend or other distribution declared on Fund shares held in the Sub-Account if the "ex-dividend" date occurs during the Valuation Period, plus or minus

a per share credit or charge with respect to any taxes reserved for by us, or paid by us if not previously reserved for, during the Valuation Period which are determined by us to be attributable to the operation of the Sub-Account; and

(2) is the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Sub-Account determined as of the end of the preceding Valuation Period.

The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge for the Valuation Period is the Daily Risk Charge times the number of days in the Valuation Period.

The Net Investment Factor may be greater or less than one.

Fixed Account Value. The Fixed Account Value on the Investment Start Date equals:

that portion of net premium received and allocated to the Fixed Account Value accrued at interest, minus

that portion of the Monthly Face Amount Charges due on the policy date and subsequent Monthly Anniversary Days through the Investment Start Date charged to the Fixed Account Value accrued at interest; minus

that portion of the Monthly Cost of Insurance deductions due from the policy date through the Investment Start Date charged to the Fixed Account Value accrued at interest.

The Fixed Account Value on subsequent Valuation Dates is equal to:

the Fixed Account Value on the preceding Valuation Date accrued at interest, plus

that portion of net premium received and allocated to the Fixed Account Value during the current Valuation Period accrued at interest, plus

any amounts transferred by you to the Fixed Account Value from the Variable Account during the current Valuation Period accrued at interest, minus

any amounts transferred by you from the Fixed Account Value to the Variable Account during the current Valuation Period accrued at interest, minus

that portion of any partial surrenders deducted from the Fixed Account Value during the current Valuation Period accrued at interest, plus

any policy loan or capitalized loan interest transferred from the Variable Account to the Fixed Account Value during the current Valuation Period accrued at interest, minus

that portion of any surrender charges associated with a decrease in the Specified Face Amount charged to the Fixed Account Value during the current Valuation Period, minus

if a Monthly Anniversary Day occurs during the current Valuation Period, that portion of the Monthly Face Amount Charge for the Policy Month just beginning charged to the Fixed Account Value accrued at interest, minus

if a Monthly Anniversary Day occurs during the current Valuation Period, that portion of the Monthly Cost of Insurance of the Policy Month just ending charged to the Fixed Account Value accrued at interest.

The minimum guaranteed interest rate applicable to the Fixed Account Value is 3% annually. Interest in excess of the guaranteed rate may be applied in the calculation of the Fixed Account Value at such increased rates and in such manner as we may determine, based on our expectations of future interest, mortality costs, persistency, expenses and taxes. Interest credited will be computed on a compound interest basis.

Insufficient Value. Your Policy will terminate for no value, subject to a Grace Period described below if, on a Valuation Date, a Monthly Anniversary Day occurred during the Valuation Period and-

o o	your Policy's Cash Surrender Value is equal to or less than zero or the Policy Debt exceeds the Cash Value.

During the first five Policy Years, a Policy will not terminate by reason of insufficient value if it satisfies the "minimum premium test," described below.

Minimum Premium Test (No-Lapse Guarantee). A Policy satisfies the minimum premium test if the premiums paid less any partial surrenders less any Policy Debt exceed the sum of the "Minimum Monthly Premiums" which applied to the Policy in each Policy Month from the policy date to the Valuation Date.

The applicable Minimum Monthly Premiums are specified in your Policy. We may revise the Minimum Monthly Premiums as a result of any of the following changes to a Policy:

an increase in the Specified Face Amount;

an increase in the cost of any rider;

when requested by you, the addition of any rider.

The revised Minimum Monthly Premiums will be effective as of the effective date of the change to the Policy and will remain in effect until again revised by any of the above changes.

Grace Period. If, on a Valuation Date, your Policy will terminate by reason of insufficient value, we will allow a Grace Period. This Grace Period will allow 61 days from that Valuation Date for the payment of a premium sufficient to keep the Policy in force. Notice of premium due will be mailed to your last known address and the last known address of any assignee of record. We will assume that your last known address is the address shown on your Policy Application (or notice of assignment), unless we receive written notice of a change in address in a form satisfactory to us. If the premium due is not paid within 61 days after the beginning of the Grace Period, then the Policy and all rights to benefits will terminate without value at the end of the 61 day period. The Policy will continue to remain in force during this Grace Period. If the Policy Proceeds become payable by us during the Grace Period, then any Unpaid Policy Charges will be deducted from the amount payable by us.

Splitting Units. We reserve the right to split or combine the value of Units. In effecting any such change, strict equity will be preserved and no change will have a material effect on the benefits or other provisions of your Policy.

Charges and Deductions

Expense Charges Applied to Premium. We will deduct a charge from each premium payment as a sales load and for our federal, state and local tax obligations, which we will determine from time to time. For the first Policy Year, the charge is 10% of premiums up to an amount specified in the policy, which is based on certain factors, including the Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The charge on premiums in excess of the amount is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25%. The current charge is 5.25%. For Policy Year 2 and thereafter , the charge on all premiums is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25%. The current charge is 5.25%.

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. This charge is for the mortality and expense risks we assume with respect to the Policy. It is based on an annual rate that we apply against the Variable Account on a daily basis.

The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge will be determined by us from time to time based on our expectations of future interest, mortality costs, persistency, expenses and taxes, but will not exceed 0.50% annually. Currently, the charge is 0.50% annually.

The mortality risk we assume is that the group of lives insured under the Policies may, on average, live for shorter periods of time than we estimated. The expense risk we assume is that our costs of issuing and administering Policies may be more than we estimated.

Monthly Face Amount Charge. We will deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value for the first 10 Policy Years following the issuance of your Policy based on the initial Specified Face Amount and for the first 10 Policy Years following the effective date for each increase in the Specified Face Amount, if any, based on the amount of increase. The applicable charge is equal to the initial Specified Face Amount or the amount of increase, as the case may be, times a rate that varies based on the age, sex and rating class of each Insured.

Monthly Cost of Insurance. We deduct a Monthly Cost of Insurance charge from your Account Value to cover anticipated costs of providing insurance coverage. The Monthly Cost of Insurance deduction will be charged proportionally to the amounts in the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Value in excess of any Policy Debt.

The Monthly Cost of Insurance equals the sum of (1), (2) and (3) where:

(1) is the cost of insurance charge equal to the Monthly Cost of Insurance rate (described below) multiplied by the net amount at risk divided by 1,000;

(2) is the monthly rider cost for any riders which are a part of your Policy (with the monthly rider cost, if any riders are added, as described in the rider itself); and

(3) is any additional insurance charge calculated as specified in your Policy, for, among other reasons, occupational or avocational risks.

The net amount at risk equals:

o o	the death benefit divided by 1.00247; minus your Account Value on the Valuation Date prior to assessing the Monthly Face Amount Charge and the cost of insurance charges.

If there are increases in the Specified Face Amount other than increases caused by changes in the death benefit option, the cost of insurance charge described above is determined separately for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount. In calculating the net amount at risk, your Account Value will first be allocated to the initial death benefit and then to each increase in the Specified Face Amount in the order in which the increases were made.

Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates (except for any such rate applicable to an increase in the Specified Face Amount) are based on the length of time your Policy has been in force and the sex, Issue Age and rating class of each Insured. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates applicable to each increase in the Specified Face Amount are based on the length of time the increase has been in force and the sex, Issue Age and rating class of each Insured. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates will be determined by us from time to time based on our expectations of future experience with respect to mortality costs, persistency, interest rates, expenses and taxes, but will not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Smoker and Nonsmoker Mortality Tables.

Basis of Computation. Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates are based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Smoker and Nonsmoker Mortality Tables. The Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates reflect any underwriting rating applicable to the Policy. We have filed a detailed statement of our methods for computing Cash Values with the insurance department in each jurisdiction where the Policy was delivered. These values equal or exceed the minimum required by law.

Waivers; Reduced Charges

We may reduce or waive the sales load or surrender charge in situations where selling and/or maintenance costs associated with the Policies are reduced, sales of large Policies, and certain group or sponsored arrangements. In addition, we may waive charges in connection with Policies sold to our or our affiliates' officers, directors and employees.

Maturity

Your Policy will terminate when the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 100. If either Insured is living and your Policy is in force on the Maturity date, your policy's Cash Surrender Value will be payable to you.

Maturity Date Extension

The Maturity date of your Policy will be extended beyond the original Maturity date shown in your Policy, if you so request in writing at our Principal Office prior to the original Maturity date and the Policy has a Cash Value on the original Maturity date. The new Maturity date will be the one you request.

After the original Maturity date (if you have requested a new Maturity date):

We will not accept any more premium payments for your Policy.

No more deductions for the Monthly Face Amount Charges or for Monthly Cost of Insurance charges will be made from your Account Value.

The death benefit will be your Account Value on the date of death of the last Insured to die.

Your Policy's reinstatement provisions will not apply.

Except as provided above, an extension of the Maturity date does not alter your Policy.

If the Maturity date is extended as described above or if the Maturity date is extended under the terms of the Maturity Extension With Full Death Benefit Rider described below, your Policy may not qualify as life insurance beyond the original Maturity date and may be subject to tax consequences. We recommend that you receive counsel from your tax adviser. We will not be responsible for any adverse tax consequences resulting from the extension of the Maturity date of your Policy.

Supplemental Benefits

You may supplement your Policy with the riders described below; provided, however, that riders may not be available in some states. An additional cost of insurance will be charged for each rider in force as a part of the Monthly Cost of Insurance charge.

Estate Preservation Rider. This rider provides term insurance coverage which increases the death benefit in the first four Policy Years by an amount you choose, subject to a maximum of 122% of the Specified Face Amount and other limits we may impose.

Maturity Extension With Full Death Benefit Rider. This rider allows you, upon request, to extend the Maturity date of your Policy beyond the original Maturity date. The Specified Face Amount and death benefit option in effect at the original Maturity date will apply beyond the original Maturity date.

Termination of Policy

Your Policy will terminate on the earlier of the date we receive your request to surrender, the expiration date of the Grace Period due to insufficient value, the date of death of the last Insured to die or the Maturity date.

Reinstatement

We will reinstate your Policy prior to its Maturity date, provided that the Policy has not been surrendered and neither of the Insureds died after the date of that termination and you-

make a request for reinstatement within five years from the date of termination;

submit satisfactory evidence of insurability with respect to each surviving Insured; and

pay an amount sufficient to put your Policy in force.

To put your Policy in force, you must pay an amount of at least-

the Unpaid Policy Charges at the date of termination; plus

any excess of the Policy Debt over the Cash Value at the date of termination; plus

three times the Monthly Cost of Insurance charges applicable at the date of reinstatement; plus

three times the Monthly Face Amount Charge.

During the first five Policy Years, an amount is sufficient to put your Policy in force if it meets the minimum premium test.

A reinstated Policy's Specified Face Amount may not exceed the Specified Face Amount at the time of termination. Your Account Value on the reinstatement date will reflect:

the Account Value at the time of termination; plus

net premiums attributable to premiums paid to reinstate the Policy; minus

the Monthly Face Amount Charge; minus

the Monthly Cost of Insurance charge applicable on the date of reinstatement; minus

any Unpaid Policy Charges at the time of termination.

The effective date of reinstatement will be the Monthly Anniversary Day that falls on or next follows the date we approve your request.

Any Policy Debt at the time of termination must be repaid upon the reinstatement of the Policy or carried over to the reinstated Policy.

If your Policy was subject to surrender charges when it lapsed, the reinstated Policy will be subject to surrender charges as if it had not terminated.

The incontestability provision of the Policy will apply to the Policy after reinstatement as regards statements made in the application for reinstatement. The suicide provision of the Policy will apply to the policy after reinstatement. In those provisions of a reinstated Policy, "Issue Date" means the effective date of reinstatement.

Deferral of Payment

We will usually pay any amount due from the Variable Account within seven days after the Valuation Date following our receipt of written notice satisfactory to us giving rise to such payment or, in the case of the death of the last Insured to die, Due Proof of the death of each Insured. Payment is subject to our rights under the Policy's incontestability and suicide provisions. Payment of any amount payable from the Variable Account on death of the last Insured to die, surrender, partial surrender or policy loan may be postponed whenever:

the New York Stock Exchange is closed other than customary weekend and holiday closing, or trading on the NYSE is otherwise restricted;

the Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, permits postponement for the protection of policyowners; or

an emergency exists as determined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, as a result of which disposal of securities is not reasonably practicable, or it is not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the assets of the Variable Account.

Rights of Owner

While either Insured is alive, unless you have assigned any of these rights, you may:

transfer ownership to a new owner;

name a contingent owner who will automatically become the owner of the Policy if you die before the last Insured to die;

change or revoke a contingent owner;

change or revoke a beneficiary;

exercise all other rights in the Policy;

increase or decrease the Specified Face Amount, subject to the other provisions of the Policy;

change the death benefit option, subject to the other provisions of the Policy.

When you transfer your rights to a new owner, you automatically revoke any prior contingent owner designation. When you want to change or revoke a prior beneficiary designation, you have to specify that action. You do not affect a prior beneficiary designation when you merely transfer ownership, or change or revoke a contingent owner designation.

You do not need the consent of a beneficiary or a contingent owner in order to exercise any of your rights. However, you must give us written notice satisfactory to us of the requested action. Your request will then, except as otherwise specified herein, be effective as of the date you signed the form, subject to any action taken before we received it.

Rights of Beneficiary

The beneficiary has no rights in the Policy until the death of the last Insured to die. If a beneficiary is alive at that time, the beneficiary will be entitled to payment of the Policy Proceeds as they become due.

Other Policy Provisions

Addition, Deletion or Substitution of Investments. We may decide to add new Sub-Accounts at any time. Also, shares of any or all of the Funds may not always be available for purchase by the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account, or we may decide that further investment in any such shares is no longer appropriate. In either event, shares of other registered open-end investment companies or unit investment trusts may be substituted both for Fund shares already purchased by the Variable Account and/or as the security to be purchased in the future, provided that these substitutions have been approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission, to the extent necessary. In addition, the investment policies of the Sub-Accounts will not be changed without the approval of the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Delaware. We also reserve the right to eliminate or combine existing Sub-Accounts or to transfer assets between Sub-Accounts. In the event of any substitution or other act described in this paragraph, we may make appropriate amendments to the Policy to reflect the substitution.

Entire Contract. Your entire contract with us consists solely of the Policy, including the attached copy of your Policy Application and any attached copies of supplemental applications for increases in the Specified Face Amount.

Alteration. Sales representatives do not have any authority to either alter or modify your Policy or to waive any of its provisions. The only persons with this authority are our president, actuary, secretary or one of our vice presidents.

Modification. Upon notice to you, we may modify the Policy if such a modification-

is necessary to make the Policy or the Variable Account comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to which we are or the Variable Account is subject;

is necessary to assure continued qualification of the Policy under the Internal Revenue Code or other federal or state laws as a life insurance policy;

is necessary to reflect a change in the operation of the Variable Account or the Sub-Accounts; or

adds, deletes or otherwise changes Sub-Account options.

We also reserve the right to modify certain provisions of the Policy as stated in those provisions. In the event of any such modification, we may make appropriate amendments to the Policy to reflect such modification.

Assignments. While either Insured is alive, you may assign all or some of your rights under the Policy. All assignments must be filed at our Principal Office and must be in written form satisfactory to us. The assignment will then be effective as of the date you signed the form, subject to any action taken before we acknowledge receipt. We are not responsible for the validity or legal effect of any assignment.

Nonparticipating. The Policy does not pay dividends. The Policy does not share in our profits or surplus earnings.

Misstatement of Age or Sex. If the age or sex of the Insured is stated incorrectly, the amounts payable by us will be adjusted upon the death of the last Insured to die as follows:

Misstatement Discovered at Death-The death benefit will be recalculated to that which would be purchased by the most recently charged Monthly Cost of Insurance rate for the correct age or sex of each Insured.

Misstatement Discovered Prior to Death-Your Account Value will be recalculated from the policy date using the Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates based on the correct age or sex of each Insured.

Suicide. If the last surviving Insured, whether sane or insane, commits suicide within two years after your Policy's Issue Date, we will not pay any part of the Policy Proceeds. We will refund the premiums paid, less the amount of any Policy Debt and any partial surrenders.

If the last surviving Insured, whether sane or insane, commits suicide within two years after the effective date of an increase in the Specified Face Amount, then our liability as to that increase will be the cost of insurance for that increase.

Incontestability. All statements made in the application or in a supplemental application are representations and not warranties. We relied and will rely on those statements when approving the issuance, increase in face amount, increase in death benefit over premium paid or change in death benefit option of the Policy. No statement can be used by us in defense of a claim unless the statement was made in the application or in a supplemental application. In the absence of fraud, after the Policy has been in force during the lifetime of the Insureds for a period of two years from its Issue Date, we cannot contest it except for non-payment of premiums. However, any increase in the face amount which is effective after the Issue Date will be incontestable only after such increase has been in force during the lifetime of the Insureds for two years from the Effective Date of Coverage of such increase. Any increase in death benefit over premium paid or increase in death benefit due to a death benefit option change will be incontestable only after such increase has been in force during the lifetime of the Insureds for two years from the date of the increase.

Report to Owner. We will send you a report at least once each Policy Year. The report will show current policy values, premiums paid and deductions made since the last report. It will also show the balance of any outstanding policy loans and accrued interest on such loans. There is no charge for this report.

Illustrations. After the first Policy Year, we will provide you with an illustration of future Account Values and death benefits upon request. We may charge a fee not to exceed $25 per illustration.

Performance Information

We may present mutual fund portfolio performance and hypothetical Policy illustrations in sales literature.

We may sometimes publish performance information related to the Fund, the Variable Account or the Policy in advertising, sales literature and other promotional materials. This information is based on past investment results and is not an indication of future performance.

Portfolio Performance

We may publish a mutual fund portfolio's total return or average annual total return. Total return is the change in value of an investment over a given period, assuming reinvestment of any dividends and capital gains. Average annual total return is a hypothetical rate of return that, if achieved annually, would have produced the same total return over a stated period if performance had been constant over the entire period. Average annual total returns smooth variations in performance, and are not the same as actual year-by-year results.

We may also publish a mutual fund portfolio's yield. Yield refers to the income generated by an investment in a portfolio over a given period of time, expressed as an annual percentage rate. When a yield assumes that income earned is reinvested, it is called an effective yield. Seven-day yield illustrates the income earned by an investment in a money market fund over a recent seven-day period.

Total returns and yields quoted for a mutual fund portfolio include the investment management fees and other expenses of the portfolio, but do not include charges and deductions attributable to your Policy. These expenses would reduce the performance quoted.

Adjusted Portfolio Performance

We may publish a mutual fund portfolio's total return and yields adjusted for charges against the assets of the Variable Account.

We may publish total return and yield quotations based on the period of time that a mutual fund portfolio has been in existence. The results for any period prior to any Policy being offered will be calculated as if the Policy had been offered during that period of time, with all charges assumed to be those applicable to the Policy.

Other Information

Performance information may be compared, in reports and promotional literature, to:

the S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index or other unmanaged indices so that investors may compare the Sub-Account results with those of a group of unmanaged securities widely regarded by investors as representative of the securities markets in general;

other groups of variable life variable accounts or other investment products tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, a widely used independent research firm which ranks mutual funds and other investment products by overall performance, investment objectives, and assets, or tracked by other services, companies, publications, or persons, such as Morningstar, Inc., who rank such investment products on overall performance or other criteria; or

the Consumer Price Index (a measure for inflation) to assess the real rate of return from an investment in the Sub-Account. Unmanaged indices may assume the reinvestment of dividends but generally do not reflect deductions for administrative and management expenses.

We may provide Policy information on various topics of interest to you and other prospective policyowners. These topics may include:

the relationship between sectors of the economy and the economy as a whole and its effect on various securities markets;

investment strategies and techniques (such as value investing, market timing, dollar cost averaging, asset allocation, constant ratio transfer and account rebalancing);

the advantages and disadvantages of investing in tax-deferred and taxable investments;

customer profiles and hypothetical purchase and investment scenarios;

financial management and tax and retirement planning; and

investment alternatives to certificates of deposit and other financial instruments, including comparisons between a Policy and the characteristics of, and market for, such financial instruments.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

We do not make any guarantees about the Policy's tax status.

The following summary provides a general description of the federal income tax considerations associated with the Policy and does not purport to be complete or to cover all situations. This discussion is NOT intended as tax advice. You should consult counsel or other competent tax advisers for more complete information. This discussion is based upon our understanding of the present federal income tax laws as they are currently interpreted by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"). We make no representation as to the likelihood of continuation of the present federal income tax laws or of the current interpretations by the IRS. We do not make any guarantee regarding the tax status of any policy or any transaction regarding the Policy.

The Policy may be used in various arrangements, including non-qualified deferred compensation or salary continuance plans, split dollar insurance plans, executive bonus plans, retiree medical benefit plans and others. The tax consequences of such plans may vary depending on the particular facts and circumstances of each individual arrangement. Therefore, if the use of the Policy in any such arrangement is contemplated, you should consult a qualified tax adviser for advice on the tax attributes of the particular arrangement.

Tax Status of the Policy

We believe the Policy will be treated as a life insurance contract under federal tax laws.

A Policy has certain tax advantages when treated as a life insurance contract within the meaning of Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). We believe that the Policy meets the Section 7702 definition of a life insurance contract and will take whatever steps are appropriate and reasonable to attempt to cause the Policy to comply with Section 7702.

Diversification of Investments

Section 817(h) of the Code requires that the Variable Account's investments be "adequately diversified" in accordance with certain Treasury regulations. We believe that the Variable Account will be adequately diversified.

In certain circumstances, the owner of a variable life insurance policy may be considered, for federal income tax purposes, the owner of the assets of the separate account used to support the policy. In those circumstances, income and gains from the separate account assets would be includible in the variable policyowner's gross income. We do not know what standards will be established, if any, in the regulations or rulings which the Treasury has stated it expects to issue on this question. We therefore reserve the right to modify the Policy as necessary to attempt to prevent a policyowner from being considered the owner of a pro-rata share of the assets of the Variable Account.

The following discussion assumes that your Policy will qualify as a life insurance contract for federal income tax purposes.

Tax Treatment of Policy Benefits

Death benefits do not incur federal income tax.

Investment gains are normally not taxed unless distributed to you before the death of the last Insured to die.

Life Insurance Death Benefit Proceeds. In general, the amount of the death benefit payable under your Policy is excludible from your gross income under the Code.

Tax Deferred Accumulation. Any increase in your Account Value is generally not taxable to you unless you receive or are deemed to receive amounts from the Policy before the death of the last Insured to die.

Distributions. If you surrender your Policy, the amount you will receive as a result will be subject to tax as ordinary income to the extent that amount exceeds the "investment in the contract," which is generally the total of premiums and other consideration paid for the Policy, less all amounts previously received under the Policy to the extent those amounts were excludible from gross income.

Depending on the circumstances, any of the following transactions may have federal income tax consequences:

the exchange of a Policy for a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract;

a change in the death benefit option;

a policy loan;

a partial surrender;

a surrender;

a change in the ownership of a Policy;

an election to extend the Maturity date; or

an assignment of a Policy.

If you pay more premiums than permitted under the seven-pay test, your Policy will be a MEC.

If your Policy becomes a MEC, partial surrenders, loans and surrenders may incur taxes and tax penalties.

In addition, federal, state and local transfer and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of Policy Proceeds will depend on your circumstances and those of the named beneficiary. Whether partial surrenders (or other amounts deemed to be distributed) constitute income subject to federal income tax depends, in part, upon whether your Policy is considered a "modified endowment contract."

Modified Endowment Contracts. Section 7702A of the Code treats certain life insurance contracts as "modified endowment contracts" ("MECs"). The Code defines MECs as those Policies issued or materially changed after June 21, 1988 on which the total premiums paid during the first seven years exceed the amount that would have been paid if the Policy provided for paid-up benefits for seven annual premiums ("seven-pay test").

We will monitor the Policy to determine whether additional premium payments would cause the Policy to become a MEC and will take certain steps in an attempt to avoid this result.

Further, if a transaction occurs which decreases the Specified Face Amount of your Policy during the first seven Policy Years, we will retest your Policy, as of the date of its purchase, based on the lower face amount to determine compliance with the seven-pay test. Also, if a decrease in Specified Face Amount occurs within seven years of a "material change," we will retest your Policy for compliance as of the date of the "material change." Failure to comply in either case would result in the Policy's classification as a MEC regardless of our efforts to provide a payment schedule that would not otherwise violate the seven-pay test.

The rules relating to whether a Policy will be treated as a MEC are complex and cannot be fully described in the limited confines of this summary. Therefore, you should consult with a competent tax adviser to determine whether a particular transaction will cause your Policy to be treated as a MEC.

Distributions under Modified Endowment Contracts. If treated as a MEC, your Policy will be subject to the following tax rules:

First, partial surrenders are treated as ordinary income subject to tax up to the amount equal to the excess (if any) of your Account Value immediately before the distribution over the "investment in the contract" at the time of the distribution.

Second, policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are treated as partial surrenders and taxed accordingly. Any past-due loan interest that is added to the amount of the loan is treated as a loan.

Third, a 10 percent additional income tax is imposed on that portion of any distribution (including distributions upon surrender), policy loan or loan secured by the Policy, that is included in income, except where the distribution or loan is:

made when you are age 59 1 /2 or older;

attributable to your becoming disabled; or

is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments for the duration of your life (or life expectancy) or for the duration of the longer of your or the beneficiary's life (or life expectancies).

These exceptions may only apply if the Policy is owned by an individual and, generally do not apply if the Policy is owned by a legal entity such as a trust, partnership or corporation.

Distributions under a Policy That Is Not a MEC. If your Policy is not a MEC, a distribution is generally treated first as a tax-free recovery of the "investment in the contract," and then as a distribution of taxable income to the extent the distribution exceeds the "investment in the contract." An exception is made for cash distributions that occur in the first 15 Policy Years as a result of a decrease in the death benefit or other change which reduces benefits under the Policy which are made for purposes of maintaining compliance with Section 7702. Such distributions are taxed in whole or part as ordinary income (to the extent of any gain in the Policy) under rules prescribed in Section 7702.

If your Policy is not a MEC, policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are generally not treated as distributions. Such loans are instead treated as your indebtedness.

Finally, if your Policy is not a MEC, distributions (including distributions upon surrender), policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are not subject to the 10 percent additional tax.

Policy Loan Interest. Generally, no tax deduction is allowed for interest paid or accrued on any indebtedness under a Policy. In addition, if the policyowner is not a natural person, or is a direct or indirect beneficiary under the Policy, Section 264(f) of the Code disallows a pro-rata portion of the taxpayer's otherwise allowable interest expense deduction. This rule may not, however, apply if you are such a policyowner engaged in a trade or business and the Policy covers an officer, director, employee or 20 percent owner of your business, within the meaning of Section 264(f)(4). You should consult your tax adviser for further guidance on these issues.

Also, there is no definitive guidance concerning the tax treatment of a policy loan when the interest rate credited to the loan is the same as the interest rate charged against the loan, as is the case for loan amounts in Policy Years 11 and thereafter. You should consult your tax adviser regarding loan amounts in those Policy Years.

Multiple Policies. All modified endowment contracts issued by us (or our affiliates) to you during any calendar year will be treated as a single MEC for purposes of determining the amount of a policy distribution which is taxable to you.

We may be required to withhold taxes from certain distributions to you.

Federal Income Tax Withholding. We will withhold and remit to the federal government the amount of any tax due on that portion of a policy distribution which is taxable if we do not have a valid social security number for you, unless you direct us otherwise in writing at or before the time of the distribution. As the policyowner, however, you will be responsible for the payment of any taxes and early distribution penalties that may be due on policy distributions, regardless of whether those amounts are subject to withholding.

Our Taxes

As a result of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990, we are currently and are generally required to capitalize and amortize certain policy acquisition expenses over a 10-year period rather than currently deducting such expenses. This so-called "deferred acquisition cost" tax ("DAC tax") applies to the deferred acquisition expenses of a Policy and results in a significantly higher corporate income tax liability for us.

At present, we do not assess any charge against the assets of the Variable Account for any federal, state or local taxes that we incur which may be attributable to the Variable Account or any Policy. We, however, reserve the right in the future to assess a charge against the assets of the Variable Account for any such taxes or other economic burdens resulting from the application of any tax laws that we determine to be properly attributable to the Variable Account or the Policy.

Distribution of Policy

The Policy will be sold by licensed insurance agents in those states where the Policy may be lawfully sold. Such agents will be registered representatives of broker-dealers registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 who are members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and who have entered into distribution agreements with us and our general distributor, Clarendon Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Clarendon"), One Sun Life Executive Park, Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts 02481. Clarendon is our wholly-owned subsidiary and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a broker-dealer and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Clarendon also acts as the general distributor of certain variable annuity contracts and other variable life insurance contracts we issue.

Gross first year commissions plus any expense allowance payments we pay on the sale of the Policy may vary with the sales agreement with broker-dealers depending on the particular circumstances, but is not expected to exceed 100% of the target premium, which will vary based on each Insured's age, sex and rating class, plus an amount not to exceed 5% of any excess premium payments. Gross renewal commissions in Policy Years 2 through 10 will not exceed 5% of actual premium payments, and will not exceed 2% in Policy Years 11 and thereafter. In addition, we may also pay override payments, expense allowances, bonuses, wholesaler fees and training allowances. In Policy Year 3 and thereafter, 0.10% of the Variable Account Value per annum will be paid to broker-dealers.

Voting Rights

We are the legal owner of all shares of the Funds held in the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account, and as such have the right to vote upon matters that are required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 to be approved or ratified by the shareholders of the Funds and to vote upon any other matters that may be voted upon at a shareholders' meeting. We will, however, vote shares held in the Sub-Accounts in accordance with instructions received from policyowners who have an interest in the respective Sub-Accounts.

We will vote shares held in each Sub-Account for which no timely instructions from policyowners are received, together with shares not attributable to a Policy, in the same proportion as those shares in that Sub-Account for which Instructions are received. Should the applicable federal securities laws change so as to permit us to vote shares held in the Variable Account in our own right, we may elect to do so.

The number of shares in each Sub-Account for which a policyowner may give instructions is determined by dividing the portion of the Account Value derived from participation in that Sub-Account, if any, by the value of one share of the corresponding Fund. We will determine the number as of a date we choose, but not more than 90 days before the shareholders' meeting. Fractional votes are counted. Voting instructions will be solicited in writing at least 14 days prior to the shareholders' meeting.

We may, if required by state insurance regulators, disregard voting instructions if those instructions would require shares to be voted so as to cause a change in the sub-classification or investment policies of one or more of the Funds, or to approve or disapprove an investment management contract. In addition, we may disregard voting instructions that would require changes in the investment policies or investment adviser, provided that we reasonably disapprove of those changes in accordance with applicable federal regulations. If we disregard voting instructions, we will advise you of that action and our reasons for it in our next communication to policyowners.

Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Variable Account I

Notes to Financial Statements

(1) Organization

Sun Life (U.S.) Variable Account I (the ''Variable Account''), a separate account of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) (the ''Sponsor'') was established on August 25, 1999 as a funding vehicle for the variable portion of certain individual variable universal life insurance contracts. The Variable Account is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment trust. The assets of the Variable Account are divided into Sub-Accounts. Each Sub-Account is invested in shares of a specific mutual fund or series thereof selected by contract owners. The funds currently offered are as follows: AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc., the Alger American Funds, Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust, MFS/Sun Life Series Trust, OCC Accumulation Trust, Sun Capital Advisers Trust, Invesco Variable Investment Funds, Alliance Variable Products Series Funds, and Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Funds (collectively the ''Funds'' or ''Sub-Accounts''). The MFS/Sun Life Series Trust and Sun Capital Advisers Trust are advised by affiliates of the Sponsor.

The Variable Account exists in accordance with the regulations of the Delaware state insurance department. The assets and liabilities of the Variable Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the Sponsor's other assets and liabilities. Assets applicable to the Variable Account are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business the Sponsor may conduct.

(2) Significant Accounting Policies

General

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Sponsor's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.

Investment Valuations

Investments in the Funds are recorded at their net asset value. The Funds value their investment securities at fair value. Transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of shares of the Funds are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and capital gain distributions received by the Sub-Accounts are reinvested in additional Fund shares and are recognized on the exdividend date. Exchanges between Sub-Accounts requested by contract owners are recorded in the new Sub-Account upon receipt of the redemption proceeds.

Federal Income Tax Status

The operations of the Variable Account are part of the operations of the Sponsor and are not taxed separately. The Variable Account is not taxed as a regulated investment company. The Sponsor qualifies for the federal
<PAGE>

Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Variable Account I

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

income tax treatment granted to life insurance companies under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code. Under existing federal income tax law, investment income and capital gains earned by the Variable Account on contract owner reserves are not subject to tax.

(3) Contract Charges and Related Party Transactions

The Sponsor sells both a Survivorship Variable Universal Life Insurance Product (''Survivorship Product'') and Single Life Variable Universal Life Products (''Single Life Products''). The Sponsor deducts a sales charge from purchase payments. For the Single Life Products the current charge is 5.25% of the amount of purchase payments. The maximum charge is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25% of purchase payments. For the Survivorship Product, the charge is based on certain factors, including the Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of the insured. Currently, the charge is 6% of premiums, and is guaranteed not to exceed 8%. These sales charges are deducted from premium payments prior to monies being allocated to the Variable Account I Sub-Accounts. Total sales charges for the year 2001 amounted to $1,530,200.

A mortality and expense risk charge based on the value of the variable account is deducted from the variable account at the end of each valuation period for the mortality and expense risks assumed by the Sponsor. The maximum deduction is at an effective annual rate of .60%, for Policy Years 1 through 10 for the Single Life Products, and Policy Years 1 through 15 for the Survivorship Product. Thereafter, the effective annual rate is .20% for both products.

For the Single Life Products, a monthly administration charge of $8 is deducted in all policy years, as well as a monthly charge based on the Specified Face Amount is deducted in the first 10 policy years, or for the first 10 policy years following the effective date of each Specified Face Amount increase. These charges are deducted proportionally from the Sub-Accounts of each contract's Account Value, to cover administrative expenses and issuance costs. For the Survivorship Product, the monthly expense charge is deducted for the first 10 policy years, and for the first 10 policy years following an increase in the Specified Face Amount. This charge is based on the Specified Face Amount or increase thereof, times a rate determined by the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. As with the Single Life Products, the charge is deducted proportionally from the Sub-Accounts of each contract's Account Value.

A surrender charge may be deducted to cover certain expenses relating to the sale of the contract. The surrender charge will be an amount based on certain factors, including the specified face amount, the insured's age, sex and rating class. For the Single Life Product, the surrender charge applies to the first 10 policy years or the 10 policy years from issuance following an increase in the specified face amount of the policy. For the Survivorship Product, the surrender charge period will generally end after 15 policy years from the date of policy issue or the effective date of each increase in the specified face amount. At the end of this note, Note (3), a list is provided identifying surrender charges deducted and retained by the Sponsor for the year ended December 31, 2001.

The Sponsor deducts a monthly cost of insurance from the account value to cover anticipated costs of providing insurance coverage. The charge is based on the length of time a policy has been in force and other factors, including issue age, sex and rating class of each insured, and will not exceed the guaranteed maximum monthly cost of insurance rates based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary smokers and non-smoker mortality tables.

During the year ended December 31, 2001, management fees were paid indirectly to Massachusetts Financial Services Company, an affiliate of the Sponsor, in its capacity as adviser to the MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Sub-Accounts. The Fund's advisory agreement provides that these fees be paid based on an annual rate/percentage of average net assets existing in each of the MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Sub-Accounts. The annual rate applied to each Series Trust Sub-Account was as follows: 0.71% MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Capital Appreciation Sub-Account, 0.55% MFS/SunLife Series Trust Massachusetts Investors Trust Sub-Account, 0.69% MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Emerging Growth Sub-Account, 0.55% MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Government Securities Sub-Account, 0.75% MFS Sunlife Series Trust High Yield Sub-Account, 0.75% MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Massachusetts Investors Growth Stock Sub-Account, 0.90% MFS/Sun Life Series Trust New Discovery Sub-Account, 0.66% MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Total Return Sub-Account, 0.72% MFS/Sun Life Series Trust Utilities Sub-Account.

Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2001, management fees were also paid indirectly to Sun Capital Advisers, Inc., an affiliate of the Sponsor, in its capacity as adviser to the Sun Capital Adviser Trust. These fees are paid based on an annual rate/percentage of average net assets existing in each of the Sun Capital Adviser Trust Sub-Accounts. The annual rate applied to each Trust Sub-Account was as follows: 0.50% Sun Capital Money Market Sub-Account, 0.60% Sun Capital Investment Grade Bond Sub-Account, 0.95% Sun Capital Real Estate Sub-Account, 0.75% Sun Capital Select Equity Sub-Account, 0.80% Sun Capital Blue Chip Mid-Cap Sub-Account, 0.75% Sun Capital Investors Foundation Sub-Account, 0.75% Sun Capital Davis Financial Sub-Account, 0.75% Sun Capital Davis Venture Value Sub-Account, 0.95% Sun Capital Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Growth Sub-Account, 0.95% Sun Capital Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Value Sub-Account, 0.80% Sun Capital Value Equity Sub-Account, 0.80% Sun Capital Value Managed Sub-Account, 0.80% Sun Capital Value Mid Cap Sub-Account, 0.80% Sun Capital Value Small Cap Sub-Account.

*	The effective date of these investment options in Variable Account I is May 1, 2001.
**	No expense ratio is presented as of December 31, 2001 as all charges currently relating to Variable Account I are made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units. An expense ratio represents the annualized contract expenses of the separate account, and includes only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values.
***	These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses that result in the direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccounts invest.
****	These amounts represent the total return for the period indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying fund, and reflect deductions for all items included in the expense ratio. The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. Investment options with a date notation indicate the effective date of that investment option in the variable account. The total return is calculated for the period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period.

These financial statements are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities held as of December 31, 2001 by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Sub-Accounts as of December 31, 2001, the results of their operations and the changes in their net assets for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

On March 12, 2001, the Company purchased Vision Financial Corporation for approximately $5.0 million and acquired approximately $1.6 million of goodwill. Vision Financial Corporation, based in Keene, N.H., is a third-party administrator that specializes in the administration of insurance products sold at the worksite. The Company has recorded the acquisition using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Vision Financial Corporation for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 were not material to the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2000, the Company sold Sun Life Information Services Ireland, Limited to Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada. Sun Life Information Services Ireland, Limited provides information systems development services to Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada and its subsidiaries.

During 1999, the Company sold two of its subsidiaries, Massachusetts Casualty Insurance Company ("MCIC") (sold February 1999) and New London Trust F.S.B. ("NLT") (sold October 1999). MCIC is a life insurance company that issues only individual disability income policies. NLT is a federally chartered savings bank, which grants commercial, residential real estate and installment loans. The results of operations of MCIC and NLT are reported as discontinued operations.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates are those used in determining deferred policy acquisition costs, investment allowances and the liabilities for future policyholder benefits. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the prior years' financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into transactions involving various types of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, investments such as fixed maturities, mortgage loans and equity securities, off balance sheet financial instruments, debt, loan commitments and financial guarantees. These instruments involve credit risk and also may be subject to risk of loss due to interest rate fluctuation. The Company evaluates and monitors each financial instrument individually and, when appropriate, obtains collateral or other security to minimize losses. Financial instruments are more fully described in Note 6.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents primarily include cash, commercial paper, money market investments, and short-term bank participations. All such investments have maturities of three months or less and are considered cash equivalents for purposes of reporting cash flows.

INVESTMENTS

The Company accounts for its investments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." At the time of purchase, fixed maturity securities are classified based on intent, as held-to-maturity, trading, or available-for-sale. In order for the security to be classified as held-to-maturity, the Company must have positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Securities held-to-maturity are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums, and accretion of discounts. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading. Securities that do not meet this criterion are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at aggregate fair value with changes in unrealized gains or losses reported net of policyholder related amounts and of deferred income taxes in a separate component of other comprehensive income. Trading securities are carried at aggregate fair value with changes in unrealized gains or losses reported as a component of net investment income. Fair values for publicly traded securities are obtained from external market quotations. For privately placed fixed maturities, fair values are estimated by taking into account prices for publicly traded securities of similar credit risk, maturities repayment and liquidity characteristics. All security transactions are recorded on a trade date basis.

The Company's accounting policy for impairment requires recognition of an other than temporary impairment write-down on a security if it is determined that the Company is unable to recover all amounts due under the contractual obligations of the security. In addition, for securities expected to be sold, an other than temporary impairment charge is recognized if the Company does not expect the fair value of a security to recover to cost or amortized cost prior to the expected date of sale. Once an impairment charge has been recorded, the Company then continues to review the other than temporarily impaired securities for additional impairment, if necessary.

Mortgage loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, net of provisions for estimated losses. Mortgage loans acquired at a premium or discount are carried at amortized values net of provisions for estimated losses. Mortgage loans, which include primarily commercial first mortgages, are diversified by property type and geographic area throughout the United States. Mortgage loans are collateralized by the related properties and generally are no more than 70% of the properties' value at the time that the original loan is made.

A loan is recognized as impaired when it is probable that the principal or interest is not collectible in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Measurement of impairment is based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or at the loan's observable market price. A specific valuation allowance is established if the fair value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded amount. Loans are also charged against the allowance when determined to be uncollectible. The allowance is based on a continuing review of the loan portfolio, past loss experience and current economic conditions, which may affect the borrower's ability to pay. While management believes that it uses the best information available to establish the allowance, future adjustments to the allowance may become necessary if economic conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the evaluation.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

Real estate investments are held for the production of income or held-for-sale. Real estate investments held for the production of income are carried at the lower of cost adjusted for accumulated depreciation or fair value. Depreciation of buildings and improvements is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the property, generally 40 to 50 years. Real estate investments held-for-sale are primarily acquired through foreclosure of mortgage loans. The cost of real estate that has been acquired through foreclosure is the estimated fair value less estimated costs to dispose at the time of foreclosure. Real estate investments are diversified by property type and geographic area throughout the United States.

Policy loans are carried at the amount of outstanding principal balance not in excess of net cash surrender values of the related insurance policies.

Other invested assets consist primarily of leveraged leases and tax credit partnerships.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments including swaps and options as a means of hedging exposure to interest rate, currency and equity price risk.

Investment income is recognized on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on the sales of investments are recognized in operations at the date of sale and are determined using the specific cost identification method. When an impairment of a specific investment or a group of investments is determined to be other than temporary, a realized investment loss is recorded. Changes in the provision for estimated losses on mortgage loans and real estate are included in net realized investment gains and losses.

Interest income on loans is recorded on the accrual basis. Loans are placed in a non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower's financial condition, after giving consideration to economic and business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of principal and interest is doubtful. When a loan is placed in non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued is reversed against current period interest income. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when they are brought fully current with respect to principal and interest, have performed on a sustained basis for a reasonable period of time, and when, in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to both principal and interest.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS

Acquisition costs consist of commissions, underwriting and other costs, which vary with and are primarily related to the production of new business. Acquisition costs related to investment-type contracts, primarily deferred annuity and guaranteed investment contracts, and universal and variable life products are deferred and amortized with interest in proportion to the present value of estimated gross profits to be realized over the estimated lives of the contracts. Estimated gross profits are composed of net investment income, net realized investment gains and losses, life and variable annuity fees, surrender charges and direct variable administrative expenses. This amortization is reviewed quarterly and adjusted retrospectively when the Company revises its estimate of current or future gross profits to be realized from this group of products, including realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments.

Deferred acquisition costs for each product are reviewed to determine if they are recoverable from future income, including investment income. If such costs are determined to be unrecoverable, they are expensed at the time of determination. Although realization of deferred policy acquisition costs is not assured, the Company believes it is more likely than not that all of these costs will be realized. The amount of deferred policy acquisition costs considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if the estimates of gross profits or total revenues discussed above are reduced.

OTHER ASSETS

Property, equipment, leasehold improvements and capitalized software costs that are included in other assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line or accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which generally range from 3 to 10 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is provided using the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the leases or the estimated useful life of the improvements. Also included in other assets are assets pledged as collateral for open derivative contracts (See "Derivatives" section of Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements.) Reinsurance receivables from reinsurance ceded are also included in other assets.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

POLICY LIABILITIES AND ACCRUALS

Future policy benefits are liabilities for traditional life, health and annuity products. Such liabilities are established in amounts adequate to meet the estimated future obligations of policies in force. The liabilities associated with traditional life insurance, annuity and disability insurance products are computed using the net level premium method based on assumptions about future investment yields, mortality, morbidity and persistency. The assumptions used are based upon the Company's experience and industry standards.

Contractholder deposit funds consist of policy values that accrue to the holders of universal life-type contracts and investment-related products such as deferred annuities and guaranteed investment contracts. The liabilities are determined using the retrospective deposit method and consist of net deposits and investment earnings less administrative charges. The liability is before the deduction of any applicable surrender charges.

Other policy liabilities include liabilities for policy and contract claims. These amounts consist of the estimated amount payable for claims reported but not yet settled and an estimate of claims incurred but not reported. The amount reported is based upon historical experience, adjusted for trends and current circumstances. Management believes that the recorded liability is sufficient to provide for the associated claims adjustment expenses. Revisions of these estimates are included in operations in the year such refinements are made.

REVENUE AND EXPENSES

Premiums for traditional individual life and annuity products are considered revenue when due. Premiums related to group life and group disability insurance are recognized as revenue pro-rata over the contract period. The unexpired portion of these premiums is recorded as unearned premiums. Revenue from universal life-type products and investment-related products includes charges for cost of insurance (mortality), initiation and administration of the policy and surrender charges. Revenue is recognized when the charges are assessed except that any portion of an assessment that relates to services to be provided in future years is deferred and recognized over the period during which the services are provided.

Other than deferred policy acquisition costs, benefits and expenses related to traditional life, annuity, and disability contracts, including group policies, are recognized when incurred in a manner designed to match them with related premium revenue and spread income recognition over expected policy lives. For universal life-type and investment-type contracts, benefits include interest credited to policyholders' accounts and death benefits in excess of account values, which are recognized as incurred.

INCOME TAXES

The Company and its subsidiaries participate in a consolidated federal income tax return with Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada - U.S. Operations Holdings, Inc. and other affiliates. Deferred income taxes are generally recognized when assets and liabilities have different values for financial statement and tax reporting purposes, and for other temporary taxable and deductible differences as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". These differences result primarily from policy reserves, policy acquisition expenses and unrealized gains or losses on investments, and are generally not chargeable with liabilities that arise from any other business of the Company.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

SEPARATE ACCOUNTS

The Company has established separate accounts applicable to various classes of contracts providing for variable benefits. Separate account assets are subject to general account claims only to the extent the value of such assets exceeds the separate account liabilities. Contracts for which funds are invested in separate accounts include variable life insurance and individual and group qualified and non-qualified variable annuity contracts. Assets and liabilities of the separate accounts, representing net deposits and accumulated net investment earnings less fees, held primarily for the benefit of contractholders, are shown as separate captions in the financial statements. Assets held in the separate accounts are carried at market value and the investment risk of such securities is retained by the contractholder.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities including fair value hedges and cash flow hedges. All derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, will be required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. For a derivative that does not qualify as a hedge, changes in fair value will be recognized in earnings.

The Company applied SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138, on January 1, 2001. As a result, the Company recorded as a change in accounting principle in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, a cumulative transition adjustment of $5.2 million, net of tax, that increased earnings relating to embedded derivatives. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 133, the Company had been recognizing changes in fair value of derivatives in earnings; however, embedded derivatives in insurance contracts had not been accounted for separately.

During 2001, the Company adopted the requirements of Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 102, "Selected Loan Loss Allowance and Documentation Issues". The adoption of SAB No. 102 had no material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In July 2000, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached consensus on Issue No. 99-20, "Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Certain Investments". This pronouncement requires investors in certain asset-backed securities to record changes in their estimated yield on a prospective basis and to evaluate these securities for an other than temporary decline in value. This consensus is effective for financial statements with fiscal quarters beginning after December 15, 2000. The Company adopted EITF No. 99-20 in June 2001; it had no material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" which replaces SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". This standard revises the methods for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral as outlined in SFAS No. 125, and requires certain additional disclosures. Adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):

In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". These Statements will change the accounting for business combinations and goodwill in two significant ways. First, SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Use of the pooling-of-interests method will be prohibited. Second, SFAS No. 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. Thus, amortization of goodwill, including goodwill recorded in past business combinations, will cease upon adoption of that Statement, which for companies with calendar year ends, will be January 1, 2002. Adopting SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

Also in July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," which relates to financial accounting and reporting of obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company believes that adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company believes that adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In September 2001, the EITF discussed Issue No. 01-10 "Accounting for the Impact of the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001" which gives accounting guidance and recommended disclosures. Following this guidance, the Company has reviewed its insurance contracts to quantify potential losses, if any, as a result of the tragedy and has determined that there were no material claims exposure to the Company. The national tragedy of September 11, 2001 has also had an adverse impact on the airline, hotel and hospitality businesses. Although the Company has investments associated with these industries, it has determined that there are no current recoverability issues. The Company will continue to monitor these investments to determine if any adjustments for other-than-temporary declines due to the decrease in market value are necessary.

The FASB is currently deliberating the issuance of an interpretation of SFAS No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries", to provide additional guidance to assist companies in identifying and accounting for special purpose entities ("SPEs") including when SPEs should be consolidated by the investor. The interpretation would introduce a concept that consolidation would be required by the primary beneficiary of the activities of an SPE unless the SPE can meet certain substantive independent economic substance criteria. It is not possible to determine at this time what conclusions will be included in the final interpretation; however, the result could impact the accounting treatment of these entities.

2. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

On February 11, 1999, two notes previously issued to the Company by Massachusetts Financial Services Company ("MFS"), an affiliate, were combined into a new note with a February 11, 2000 maturity date. The original notes were each issued for $110,000,000. One note was issued on February 11, 1998 at an interest rate of 6.0% and a due date of February 11, 1999. The other note was issued on December 22, 1998 at an interest rate of 5.55% and a due date of February 11, 1999. These two notes and an additional $10,000,000 were combined into a new note of $230,000,000 with a floating interest rate based on the six-month LIBOR rate plus 25 basis points. The $230,000,000 note was repaid to the Company on December 21,1999.

On December 31, 1998, the Company had an additional $20,000,000 investment in notes issued by MFS, scheduled to mature in 2000. These notes were repaid to the Company on December 21, 1999.

On January 14, 2000, the Company purchased two separate $100,000,000 notes from MFS, one with an interest rate of 8.60% due August 11, 2004, and the other with an interest rate of 7.93% due August 11, 2003. On November 1, 2000, MFS repaid the $100,000,000 note with an original maturity of August 11, 2003.

On February 5, 1999, the Company sold MCIC to an unaffiliated company. The net proceeds of this sale were $33,965,000. The Company realized a loss of $25,465,000 net of a $14,482,000 tax benefit.

On October 29, 1999, the Company sold NLT to an unaffiliated company for $30,254,000. The Company realized a gain of $13,170,000 after taxes of $10,186,000.

On December 22, 1999, the Company acquired twenty-eight mortgages from Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada for a total cost of $118,092,000.

On June 27, 2000, the Company sold Sun Life Information Services Ireland, Limited to Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada. The Company realized a pretax gain of $451,000 on the sale.

On December 21, 2000, the Company's parent, Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Holdings, Inc., transferred its ownership in all 200 shares issued and outstanding of Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Holdings General Partner, Inc. to the Company in exchange for 537 shares of the Company's common stock totaling $537,000 plus $65,520,000 of additional paid in capital. As a result of the acquisition of Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Holdings General Partner, Inc. on December 21, 2000, and its ownership interest in Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Limited Partnership I, the Company became the owner of a $600,000,000 8.526% subordinated debenture due May 6, 2027 issued by the Company's parent, Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Holdings, Inc. The Company also assumed the liability of the Partnership Capital Securities issued to Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Capital Trust I, a Delaware business trust sponsored by the Company's parent. Partnership Capital Securities issued of $600,010,000 accrue interest at 8.526% and have no scheduled maturity date. These Partnership Capital Securities, which represent the limited partner interest of Sun Life (U.S.) Limited Partnership I, may be redeemed on or after May 6, 2027. The Company is accounting for the acquisition of Sun life of Canada (U.S.) General Partner, Inc. using the purchase method of accounting.

3. INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)

As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, 96% and 98%, respectively, of the Company's fixed maturities were investment grade. Investment grade securities are those that are rated "BBB" or better by nationally recognized rating agencies. During 2001 and 2000, the Company incurred realized losses totaling $5,500,000 and $14,956,000 for other than temporary impairment of value of some of its fixed maturities after determining that not all of the unrealized losses were temporary in nature. During 2001, $9,650,000 of the 2000 losses was recovered and is included in realized gains. Also in 2000, the Company stopped accruing income on its holdings of an issuer that declared bankruptcy. $417,000 and $243,000 of interest income on these holdings were not accrued during 2001 and 2000, respectively. All of the Company's securities were income producing during the year ended December 31, 1999.

MORTGAGE LOANS AND REAL ESTATE

The Company invests in commercial first mortgage loans and real estate throughout the United States. Investments are diversified by property type and geographic area. Mortgage loans are collateralized by the related properties and generally are no more than 70% of the properties' value at the time that the original loan is made. Real estate investments classified as held-for-sale have been obtained primarily through foreclosure. The carrying value of mortgage loans and real estate investments net of applicable reserves and accumulated depreciation on real estate were as follows (in 000's):

		December 31,
		2001	2000

Total mortgage loans		$ 915,730	$ 846,439

Real estate:
	Held-for-sale	1,490	7,483
	Held for production of income	82,055	70,239
Total real estate		$ 83,545	$ 77,722

Accumulated depreciation on real estate was $16,110,000 and $14,879,000 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The Company monitors the condition of the mortgage loans in its portfolio. In those cases where mortgages have been restructured, values are impaired or values are impaired but mortgages are performing, appropriate allowances for losses have been made. The Company has restructured mortgage loans, impaired mortgage loans and impaired but performing mortgage loans totaling $17,933,000 and $18,165,000 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, against which there are allowances for losses of $7,140,000 and $4,675,000, respectively. During 2001 and 2000, non-cash investing activities included real estate acquired through foreclosure of mortgage loans, which had fair values of $1,000,000 and $1,500,000, respectively.

3. INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED):

At December 31, 2001, scheduled mortgage loan maturities were as follows (000's):

2002	$ 50,312
2003	28,465
2004	47,272
2005	89,257
2006	56,351
Thereafter	644,073
Total	$ 915,730

Actual maturities could differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties and loans may be refinanced.

The Company has made commitments of mortgage loans on real estate and other loans into the future. The outstanding commitments for these mortgages amount to $39,800,000 and $45,119,000 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

During 2000, the Company sold commercial mortgage loans in a securitization transaction. In the transaction, the Company retained servicing responsibilities, a Class B and a Class I interest only certificate. The Class B certificate is a subordinated interest. The Company receives annual servicing fees, before expenses, of 0.1 percent of the outstanding balance and rights to future cash flows arising after the investors in the securitization trust have received the return for which they contracted. The investors in the securitization trust have no recourse to the Company's other assets for failure of debtors to pay when due. The value of the Company's retained interest is subject to credit, and interest rate risk on the transferred financial assets. The Company recognized a pretax gain of $763,000 on the securitization transaction.

Key economic assumptions used in measuring the retained interests at the date of securitization resulting from securitizations completed during the year ended December 31, 2000 were as follows:

	Class B	Class I
Prepayment speed	0	0
Weighted average life in years	7.25	4.54
Expected credit losses	0	0
Residual cash flows discount rate	7.798	8.844

Impact on fair value of 20% of adverse change	14,800	8,465

The total principal amount of the commercial mortgage loans was $173,655,000 at December 31, 2001, none of which were 60 days or more past due. There were no net credit losses incurred relating to the commercial mortgage loans at the date of the securitization and at December 31, 2001.

SECURITIES LENDING

The Company has a securities lending program operated on its behalf by the Company's primary custodian, Chase Manhattan of New York. The custodian has indemnified the Company against losses arising from this program. There were no securities out on loan at December 31, 2001 and 2000. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company had received no collateral for securities on loan. The income resulting from this program was $126,000, $48,000 and $37,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

LEVERAGED LEASES

The Company is a lessor in a leverage lease agreement entered into on October 21, 1994, under which equipment having an estimated economic life of 25-40 years was originally leased for a term of 9.78 years. During 2001, the lease term was extended until 2010. The Company's equity investment represented 22.9% of the purchase price of the equipment. The balance of the purchase price was furnished by third-party long-term debt financing, collateralized by the equipment and non-recourse to the Company. At the end of the lease term, the master lessee may exercise a fixed price purchase option to purchase the equipment. The Company's net investment in leveraged leases is composed of the following elements (in 000's):

DERIVATIVES

The Company uses derivative financial instruments for risk management purposes to hedge against specific interest rate risk, to alter investment rate exposures arising from mismatches between assets and liabilities, and to minimize the Company's exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and general market conditions. The derivative financial instruments used by the Company include swaps and options. The Company does not hold or issue any derivative instruments for trading purposes.

SWAPS

Swap agreements are contracts with other parties to exchange at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and floating rate interest amounts based upon a notional principal amount. No cash is exchanged at the outset of the contract and no principal payments are made by either party. A single net payment is usually made by one counter-party at each interest payment date. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to hedge against exposure to interest rate fluctuations. Because the underlying principal is not exchanged, the Company's maximum exposure to counterparty credit risk is the difference in payments exchanged. The net payable/receivable is recognized over the life of the swap contract as an adjustment to net investment income.

In 2000, the Company launched a new guaranteed investment contract program. The purpose of the program was to increase market place and interest for these products. Each deal is highly individualized but typically involves the issuance of foreign currency denominated contracts backed by cross currency swaps or equity linked cross currency swaps. The combination of these swaps with interest rate swaps allows the Company to lock in U.S. dollar fixed rate payments for the life of the note.

The net increase (decrease) in net investment income related to swaps was ($23,493,000), $166,000, and ($2,513,000) for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Company did not employ hedge accounting treatment in 2001, 2000 and 1999. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses were realized immediately in those years.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999

3. INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED):

The Company recognized gross realized gains on derivatives of $10,173,000, $3,924,000, and $4,735,000 in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively, as well as gross realized losses of $8,912,000, $1,156,000, and $1,789,000 during 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

The Company's primary risks associated with these transactions are exposure to potential credit loss in the event of non-performance by counter-parties and market risk. The Company regularly assesses the strength of the counter-parties and generally enters into transactions with counter-parties rated "A" or better by nationally recognized ratings agencies. Management believes that the risk of incurring losses related to credit risk is remote. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company's derivatives had no significant concentration of credit risk.

The Company is required to pledge and receive collateral for open derivative contracts. The amount of collateral that is required is determined by agreed upon thresholds with the counterparties. The Company currently pledges cash and U.S. Treasury bonds to satisfy this collateral requirement. At December 31, 2001, $32,900,000 of fixed maturities was pledged as collateral and is included in other assets. No collateral was pledged at December 31, 2000.

OPTIONS

Options are legal contracts that give the contractholder the right to buy or sell a specific amount of the underlying interest at a strike price upon exercise of the option. The Company also utilizes options to hedge against stock market exposure inherent in the mortality and expense risk charges and guaranteed minimum death benefit features of the Company's variable annuities.

The Company's underlying notional or principal amounts associated with open derivatives positions were as follows (in 000's):

	Outstanding at December 31, 2001

6. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

SFAS 107 "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments" excludes certain insurance liabilities and other non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. The fair value amounts presented herein do not include the expected interest margin (interest earnings over interest credited) to be earned in the future on investment-type products or other intangible items. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented herein do not necessarily represent the underlying value of the Company; likewise, care should be exercised in deriving conclusions about the Company's business or financial condition based on the fair value information presented herein.

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments at December 31, 2001 and 2000 (in 000's):

		December 31, 2001		December 31, 2000
		Carrying	Estimated	Carrying	Estimated

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999

6. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED):

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents are estimated to be cost plus accrued interest which approximates fair value. The fair values of short-term bonds are estimated to be the amortized cost. The fair values of publicly traded fixed maturities are based upon market prices or dealer quotes. For privately placed fixed maturities, fair values are estimated by taking into account prices for publicly traded securities of similar credit risk, maturity, repayment and liquidity characteristics. The fair values of mortgage and other loans are estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

Policy loans are stated at unpaid principal balances, which approximate fair value.

The fair values of the Company's general account insurance reserves and contractholder deposits under investment-type contracts (insurance, annuity and pension contracts that do not involve mortality or morbidity risks) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or surrender values based on interest rates currently being offered for similar contracts with maturities consistent with those remaining for all contracts being valued. Those contracts that are deemed to have short-term guarantees have a carrying amount equal to the estimated market value.

The fair values of other deposits with future maturity dates are estimated using discounted cash flows.

The fair value of notes payable and other borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based upon the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowings. The carrying amount of all other assets is assumed to approximate fair value.

7. REINSURANCE

INDIVIDUAL INSURANCE

The Company had several agreements with Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada, which provided that Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada would reinsure the mortality risk and certain ancillary benefits under various individual life insurance contracts sold by the Company. Under these agreements, basic death benefits and supplementary benefits were reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis and coinsurance basis, respectively. The effective dates of these agreements were June 1, 1982, November 1, 1986, and January 1, 1987. These agreements were terminated on December 31, 2000.

The Company had an agreement with an unrelated company that provided reinsurance of a small block of individual life insurance contracts on a modified coinsurance basis. This agreement was terminated on December 31, 2000.

The Company has agreements with Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada and with other unrelated companies which provide for reinsurance of certain mortality risks associated with the individual and corporate owned life insurance (COLI) contracts. These amounts are reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis.

GROUP INSURANCE

The Company has an agreement with Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada whereby Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada reinsures the mortality risks of the group life insurance contracts. Under this agreement, certain death benefits are reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis.

7. REINSURANCE (CONTINUED):

The Company has an agreement with an unrelated company whereby the unrelated company reinsures the morbidity risks of the group long-term disability contracts. Under this agreement, certain long-term disability benefits are reinsured on a yearly renewable term basis.

The effects of reinsurance were as follows (in 000's):

		For the Years Ended December 31,
			2001	2000	1999

Insurance premiums:
	Direct		$ 43,980	$ 51,058	$ 54,662
	Assumed		-	-	-
	Ceded		2,971	6,255	9,595
Net premiums			$ 41,009	$ 44,803	$ 45,067

Insurance and other individual policy benefits and claims:
	Direct		$ 314,750	$ 346,411	$ 342,284
	Assumed		-	-	-
	Ceded		5,063	8,077	7,433
Net policy benefits and claims			$ 309,687	$ 338,334	$ 334,851

The Company is contingently liable for the portion of the policies reinsured under each of its existing reinsurance agreements in the event the reinsurance companies are unable to pay their portion of any reinsured claim. Management believes that any liability from this contingency is unlikely. However, to limit the possibility of such losses, the Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk.

8. RETIREMENT PLANS:

PENSION PLAN

The Company and its subsidiaries participate with Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada in a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering essentially all employees. Benefits under all plans are based on years of service and employees' average compensation. The Company's funding policies for the pension plans are to contribute amounts which at least satisfy the minimum amount required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"); currently the plans are fully funded. Most pension plan assets consist of separate accounts of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada or other insurance company contracts.

The assumed weighted average discount rate for 2000 and 1999 was 7.5%. The expected return on plan assets for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was 8.75% and the assumed rate of compensation increase for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was 4.50%.

The Company and certain subsidiaries also participate with Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada and certain affiliates in a 401(k) savings plan for which substantially all employees are eligible. Under the various plans the Company matches, up to specified amounts, employees' contributions to the plan. The Company's contributions were $462,000, $354,000 and $284,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

In addition to pension benefits, the Company and certain subsidiaries provide certain health, dental, and life insurance benefits ("postretirement benefits") for retired employees and dependents. Substantially all employees of the participating companies may become eligible for these benefits if they reach normal retirement age while working for the Company, or retire early upon satisfying an alternate age plus service condition. Life insurance benefits are generally set at a fixed amount. The following table sets forth the change in other postretirement benefit plans' obligations and assets, as well as the plans' funded status at December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 (in 000's).

8. RETIREMENT PLANS (CONTINUED):

The following table sets forth the components of the net periodic postretirement benefit costs for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 (in 000's).

	2001	2000	1999

Components of net periodic benefit cost
Service cost	$ 624	$ 529	$ 413

Interest cost	1,296	1,139	845

Amortization of transition obligation(asset)	45	45	45

Recognized net actuarial loss (gain)	381	219	164
Net periodic benefit cost	$ 2,346	$ 1,932	$ 1,467

The Company's share of net periodic benefit cost	$ 256	$ 219	$ 185

In order to measure the postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2001 the Company assumed a 16.0% annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care benefits (5.5% for dental benefits). In addition, medical cost inflation is assumed to be 12% in 2002 and assumed to decrease gradually to 5.5% for 2013 and remain at that level thereafter. Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the health care plans. For example, increasing the health care cost trend rate assumptions by one percentage point in each year would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2001 by $6.1 million, and the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit expense for 2001 by $465,000. Conversely, decreasing assumed rates by one percentage point in each year would decrease the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2001 by $5.0 million, and the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit expense for 2001 by $369,000. The assumed weighted average discount rate used in determining the postretirement benefit obligation was 7.0% for 2001 and 7.5% for 2000 and 1999.

9. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return with Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada - U.S. Operations Holdings, Inc. as previously described in Note 1. Federal income taxes are calculated as if the Company was filing a separate federal income tax return. A summary of the components of federal income tax expense (benefit) in the consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 was as follows (in 000's):

		2001		2000		1999
Federal income tax expense (benefit):

9. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

Federal income taxes attributable to the consolidated operations are different from the amounts determined by multiplying income before federal income taxes by the expected federal income tax rate of 35%. The Company's effective rate differs from the federal income tax rate as follows:

		2001		2000		1999

Expected federal income tax expense	$	(13,435)	$	(21,455)	$	28,969
Low income housing credit		(6,138)		(5,805)		(6,348)

Federal income tax expense	$	(23,322)	$	(61,681)	$	28,780

The deferred income tax (asset) liability represents the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities used for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The components of the Company's deferred tax (assets) and liabilities as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 were as follows (in 000's):

	2001	2000

Deferred tax assets:
Actuarial liabilities	$ 92,323	$ 177,709

9. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

The Company makes payments under the tax sharing agreements as if it were filing as a separate company.

The Company's federal income tax returns are routinely audited by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), and provisions are made in the consolidated financial statements in anticipation of the results of these audits. The Company is currently under audit by the IRS for the years 1994 and 1995. In the Company's opinion, adequate tax liabilities have been established for all years and any adjustments that might be required for the years under audit will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. However, the amounts of these tax liabilities could be revised in the future if estimates of the Company's ultimate liability are revised.

10. LIABILITY FOR UNPAID CLAIMS AND CLAIMS ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES

Activity in the liability for unpaid claims and claims adjustment expenses related to the group life and group disability products is summarized below (in 000's):

		2001	2000

Balance at January 1		$ 20,574			$ 17,755
Less reinsurance recoverables		(5,067)			(4,036)
Net balance at January 1		15,507			13,719

Paid losses related to:
	Current year	(5,446)			(5,473)
	Prior years	(3,092)		(3,395)
Total paid		(8,538)		(8,868)

Net balance at December 31		23,615		20,574
Less reinsurance recoverables		(6,078)		(5,067)
Balance at December 31		$ 17,537		$ 15,507

The Company regularly updates its estimates of liabilities for unpaid claims and claims adjustment expenses as new information becomes available and further events occur which may impact the resolution of unsettled claims for its individual and group disability lines of business. Changes in prior estimates are recorded in results of operations in the year such changes are determined to be needed.

The Group Protection segment markets and administers group life and long-term disability insurance to small and mid-size employers in the State of New York.

The Corporate segment includes the unallocated capital of the Company, its debt financing, and items not otherwise attributable to the other segments. Management evaluates the results of the operating segments on an after-tax basis. The Company does not materially depend on one or a few customers, brokers or agents.

13. REGULATORY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The insurance subsidiaries are required to file annual statements with state regulatory authorities prepared on an accounting basis prescribed or permitted by such authorities (statutory basis). Statutory surplus differs from shareholder's equity reported in accordance with GAAP for stock life insurance companies primarily because policy acquisition costs are expensed when incurred, reserves are based on different assumptions, investments are valued differently, post-retirement benefit costs are based on different assumptions and reflect a different method of adoption, and deferred income taxes are calculated differently. The statutory financials are not prepared on a consolidated basis.

Statutory surplus and capital	$ 769,520	$ 940,335	$ 886,342
Statutory net (loss) income	$ (137,139)	$ (236)	$ 90,358

The Company prepares its statutory financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Delaware. Effective January 1, 2001, the State of Delaware required that insurance companies domiciled in the State of Delaware prepare their statutory basis financial statements in accordance with the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures manual, version effective January 1, 2001, subject to any deviations prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Delaware.

Accounting changes adopted to conform to the provisions of the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures manual, version effective January 1, 2001, are reported as changes in accounting principles in the statutory financial statements. The cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles is reported as an adjustment to unassigned funds (surplus) in the period of the change in accounting principle. The cumulative effect is the difference between the amount of capital and surplus at the beginning of the year and the amount of capital and surplus that would have been reported at that date if the new accounting principles had been applied retroactively for all prior periods. As a result of these changes, the Company reported a change of accounting principle in its statutory financial statements, as an adjustment that increased unassigned funds (surplus), of $25,924,000 as of January 1, 2001. This adjustment is due to $25,454,000 of net deferred tax assets established as of January 1, 2001 offset by an increase of $470,000 in the valuation of the Company's obligation for postretirement benefits other than pensions ("PBOP") on a NAIC basis as of January 1, 2001.

14. DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS

The Company and its insurance subsidiary's ability to pay dividends are subject to certain restrictions. Delaware and New York have enacted laws governing the payment of dividends to stockholders by insurers. These laws affect the dividend paying ability of the Company and Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York. Pursuant to Delaware's statute, the maximum amount of dividends and other distributions that an insurer may pay in any twelve-month period, without prior approval of the Delaware Commissioner of Insurance, is limited to the greater of (i) 10% of its statutory surplus as of the preceding December 31, or (ii) the individual company's statutory net gain from operations for the preceding calendar year (if such insurer is a life company), or its net income (not including realized capital gains) for the preceding calendar year (if such insurer is not a life company). Any dividends to be paid by an insurer, whether or not in excess of the aforementioned threshold, from a source other than statutory surplus, would also require the prior approval of the Delaware Commissioner of Insurance. Dividends in the amounts of $15,000,000, $10,000,000 and $80,000,000 were declared and paid by the Company to its parent, Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Holdings, Inc. during 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

14. DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS (CONTINUED)

On September 20, 2000, New York insurance law was amended to permit a domestic stock life insurance company to distribute a dividend to its shareholders, without notice to the Superintendent of Insurance of the State of New York, where the aggregate amount of such dividend in any calendar year does not exceed the lesser of: (1) ten percent of its surplus to policyholders as of the immediately preceding calendar year; or (2) its net gain from operations for the immediately preceding calendar year, not including realized capital gains. Under the previous law, domestic stock life insurers were prohibited from distributing any dividends to shareholders unless the insurer filed a notice of its intention to declare a dividend and its amount with the Superintendent at least 30 days in advance of the proposed declaration, and such proposed distribution was not disapproved by the Superintendent. No dividends were paid during 2001. Dividends in the amount of $4,700,000 and $6,500,000 were declared and paid during 2000 and 1999, respectively, by the Sun Life Insurance and Annuity Company of New York to the Company. These dividends were approved by the Board of Directors and the State of New York Insurance Department.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

REGULATORY AND INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENTS

Unfavorable economic conditions may contribute to an increase in the number of insurance companies that are under regulatory supervision. This may result in an increase in mandatory assessments by state guaranty funds, or voluntary payments by solvent insurance companies to cover losses to policyholders of insolvent or rehabilitated companies. Mandatory assessments, which are subject to statutory limits, can be partially recovered through reduction in future premium taxes in some states. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate the potential effect on it of any such future assessments. Under insurance guaranty fund laws in each state, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, insurers licensed to do business can be assessed by state insurance guaranty associations for certain obligations of insolvent insurance companies to policyholders and claimants. Recent regulatory actions against certain large life insurers encountering financial difficulty have prompted various state insurance guaranty associations to begin assessing life insurance companies for the deemed losses. Most of these laws do provide, however, that an assessment may be excused or deferred if it would threaten an insurer's solvency and further provide annual limits on such assessments. Part of the assessments paid by the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to these laws may be used as credits for a portion of the associated premium taxes.

LITIGATION

The Company is not aware of any contingent liabilities arising from litigation, income taxes and other matters beyond the ordinary course of business that could have a material effect upon the financial condition of the Company.

LINES OF CREDIT

The Company has syndicated two lines of credit each in the amount of $250 million. There are 14 banks in the syndicate of lenders, which is led by Chase Bank, New York. The banks have committed to lend funds of up to $500 million when requested by the Company at prevailing rates determined in accordance with the line of credit agreements. One line of credit terminates October 2002, the other in October 2003. As of December 31, 2001, no amounts have been borrowed.

Sample Hypothetical Illustrations

Hypothetical Illustrations of Cash Surrender Values, Account Values and Death Benefits

The illustrations in this prospectus have been prepared to help show how values under the Policy change with investment performance. The illustrations on the following pages illustrate the way in which a Policy's death benefit, Account Value and Cash Surrender Value could vary over an extended period of time. They assume that all premiums are allocated to and remain in the Variable Account for the entire period shown and are based on hypothetical gross annual investment returns for the Funds (i.e. investment income and capital gains and losses, realized or unrealized) equivalent to constant gross annual rates of 0%, 6% and 12% over the periods indicated.

The Account Values and death benefits would be different from those shown if the gross annual investment rates of return averaged 0%, 6% and 12% over a period of years, but fluctuated above or below such averages for individual Policy Years. The values would also be different depending on the allocation of a Policy's total Account Value among the Sub-Accounts, if the actual rates of return average 0%, 6% or 12%, but the rates for each Fund varied above and below the averages.

The amounts shown for the death benefits and the Account Values take into account all charges and deductions imposed under the Policy based on the assumptions set forth below. These include the Expense Charge Applied to Premium, the Daily Risk Percentage Charge charged against the Variable Account Value for mortality and expense risks, the Monthly Face Amount Charge and the Monthly Cost of Insurance. The Expense Charge Applied to Premium is deducted as a sales load and for our federal, state and local tax obligations. In the first Policy Year, the Expense Charge Applied to Premium is 10% of premiums up to an amount specified in the policy. The charge on premiums in excess of the amount specified is currently 5.25% and is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25%. The charge we will deduct from premiums in Policy Years 2 and after is 5.25% and is guaranteed not to exceed 7.25%. The Daily Risk Percentage Charge is an annual effective rate of .050%.

The amounts shown in the tables also take into account the Funds' advisory fees and operating expenses, which are assumed to be at an annual rate of .89% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. This is based upon a simple average of the advisory fees and expenses of all the Funds for the most recent fiscal year taking into account any applicable expense caps or expense reimbursement arrangements. Actual fees and expenses of the Funds may be more or less than .89%, will vary from year to year, and will depend upon how Account Value is allocated among the Sub-Accounts. See the Fund prospectuses for more information on Fund expenses. The gross annual rates of investment return of 0%, 6% and 12% correspond to net annual rates of -.1.39%, 4.61% and 10.61% respectively.

The hypothetical returns shown in the tables do not reflect any charges for income taxes against the Variable Account since no charges are currently made. If, in the future, such charges are made, in order to produce the illustrated death benefits and Cash Values, the gross annual investment rate of return would have to exceed 0%, 6% or 12% by a sufficient amount to cover the tax charges.

The second column of each table shows the amount which would accumulate if an amount equal to each premium were invested, after taxes, at 5% per year, compounded annually.

We will furnish upon request a comparable table using any specific set of circumstances. In addition to a table assuming policy charges at their maximum, we will furnish a table assuming current policy charges.

(1) Assumes a $10,000.00 premium is paid at the beginning of each Policy Year. Values will be different if premiums are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.

(2) Assumes that no policy loans have been made. Excessive loans or partial surrenders may cause this Policy to lapse due to insufficient Policy Value.

The hypothetical investment rates of return are illustrative only, and should not be deemed a representation of past or future investment rates of return. Actual investment results may be more or less than those shown, and will depend on a number of factors, including the investment allocations by a Policy Owner, and the different investment rates of return for the Funds. The Cash Surrender Value and Death Benefit for a Policy would be different from those shown if the actual rates of investment return averaged 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of years, but fluctuated above and below those averages for individual Policy Years. They would also be different if any Policy loans or partial surrenders were made. No representations can be made that these hypothetical investment rates of return can be achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

*Available for investment on May 1, 2002.

The Alger Replaced Funds have similar investment objectives to their respective Substitute Funds. Policy owners and prospective purchasers should carefully read the Sun Capital prospectus dated May 1, 2002.

With respect to the Replaced Funds, the Company will not exercise any rights reserved under your policy to impose restrictions or fees on transfers from the Replaced Funds or Substitute Funds until at least thirty (30) days after the proposed substitutions occur.

Summary of Policy

Right of Return Period

You may return your Policy to us for any reason and receive a refund within 10 days from the date of receipt of your Policy. A longer period may apply in some states.

Premium Payments

You must make a minimum Initial Premium payment, the amount of which will vary based on various factors, including the age, sex and rating class of each Insured.

Thereafter, you choose the amount and timing of premium payments, within certain limits.

You may allocate your net premium payments among the Policy's available Investment Options.

Death Benefit

o	You have a choice of two death benefit options-
Specified Face Amount is the minimum amount of life insurance in your Policy.	o	the Specified Face Amount; or
	o	the sum of the Specified Face Amount and the Account Value of your Policy.

For each option, the death benefit may be greater if necessary to satisfy federal tax laws.

After the first Policy Year, you may change your death benefit option or increase the Specified Face Amount, subject to satisfactory evidence of insurability. After the fourth Policy Year, you may decrease the Specified Face Amount, provided that the Specified Face Amount after the decrease is not less than the Minimum Specified Face Amount shown in your Policy.

The Variable Account

o o	We have established a variable separate account to fund the variable benefits under the Policy. The assets of the variable separate account are insulated from the claims of our general creditors.

Investment Options

You may allocate your net premium payments among the Investment Options listed on page ii of this prospectus.

Each Sub-Account invests exclusively in shares of a mutual fund portfolio.

You may transfer amounts from one Sub-Account to another or to the Fixed Account Option, subject to any limits that we or the Funds may impose.

You may transfer amounts from the Fixed Account Option, subject to our rules as they may exist from time to time.

Supplemental Benefits

o	You may supplement your Policy with the following riders, where available-

estate preservation;

maturity extension with full death benefit; and

supplemental insurance.

o	We will deduct the cost, if any, of the rider(s) from your Policy's Account Value on a monthly basis.

Accessing Your Account Value

Cash Surrender Value is Account Value minus any surrender charges and the amount of any Policy Debt.

The surrender charge period ends generally 15 years after you purchase or increase the Specified Face Amount of your Policy.

You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value. If you surrender your Policy during the surrender charge period, you will incur any applicable surrender charges.

You may make a partial withdrawal of some of your Policy's Cash Surrender Value after the Policy has been in force for one year. A partial withdrawal will cause a decrease in the Specified Face Amount of your Policy if your death benefit option is the Specified Face Amount.

Account Value

o	Your Policy's Account Value will reflect-

Account Value is the sum of the amounts in each Sub-Account and the Fixed Account Option with respect to your Policy.

the premiums you pay;

the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select, and/or the interest credited to the Fixed Account Option;

any loans or partial withdrawals;

the charges we deduct under the Policy.

Policy Charges and Monthly Deductions

Expense Charge Applied to Premium-We will deduct a charge from your premium payments as a sales load and for our federal, state and local tax obligations. Currently, the charge is 6% of premiums. The charge is based on certain factors, including the Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The charge is guaranteed not to exceed 8%.

Mortality and Expense Risk Charge-We will deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value for the mortality and expense risks we assume with respect to the Policy. The annual percentage rate is 0.60% for Policy Years 1 through 15 and 0.20% thereafter of the Variable Account Value.

Monthly Expense Charge-For ten years, we will deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value following the issuance of your Policy based on the initial Specified Face Amount and for ten years following the effective date of each increase in the Specified Face Amount, if any, based on the amount of increase. The charge covers administration expenses and issuance costs. The applicable charge is equal to the initial Specified Face Amount or the amount of increase, as the case may be, times a rate that varies based on the age, sex and rating class of each Insured.

Monthly Cost of Supplemental Benefits-We will deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value for the cost, if any, of any supplemental benefit riders issued with your Policy. The applicable charge will vary based on various factors which may include, among others, the amount of coverage and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured.

Surrender Charges-We will deduct a surrender charge from your Account Value if you surrender your Policy or request a decrease in the Specified Face Amount during the surrender charge period. There is a separate surrender charge period for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount you request, which starts on the date we issue your Policy and on the effective date of the increase, respectively. Each surrender charge period will generally end after 15 Policy Years, but may end sooner under certain circumstances. The surrender charge will be an amount based on certain factors, including the Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The following are examples of surrender charges at representative Issue Ages.

Per $1,000 of Specified Face Amount

(Male/Female Insured Pair, Non-tobacco)

Issue Ages 35&35

o

o

Interest on Policy Loans-Policy loans accrue interest daily at 4% annually during Policy Years 1 through 10 and 3% annually thereafter.

Sub-Account Transfers-We reserve the right to impose a charge, not to exceed $15, on Sub-Account transfers in excess of 12 in any one Policy Year.

All expense figures are shown after expense reimbursements or waivers, except for the bracketed figures which show what the expense figures would have been absent reimbursement. All expense figures are based on actual expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, except that the expense figures shown for SC^SMAlger Growth Fund, SC^SM Alger Income & Growth Fund, SC^SM Alger Small Capitalization Fund and Sun Capital All Cap Fund^SM are estimates for the year 2002.

The INVESCO VIF Dynamics and INVESCO VIF Small Company Growth Funds' actual "Other Fund Expenses" and "Total Annual Fund Expenses" were lower than the figures shown because their custodian fees were reduced under an expense offset arrangement.

Actual annual operating expenses were lower because a portion of the brokerage commissions that the fund paid was used to reduce the fund's expenses. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce a portion of the fund's custodian expenses. These offsets may be discontinued at any time. The fund's manager has voluntarily agreed to reimburse the class to the extent that total operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, certain securities lending costs, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.38%. This arrangement can be discontinued by the fund's manager at any time. Including this reimbursement, the management fee, other expenses and total annual expenses in 2001 were 0.24%, 0.04% and 0.38%, respectively.

Effective May 1, 2002, the following funds' names will change from AIM V.I. Growth and Income, AIM V.I. International Equity and AIM V.I. Value Fund to AIM V.I. Core Equity Fund, AIM V.I. International Growth Fund and AIM V.I. Premium Equity Fund, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2001, the investment adviser waived all investment advisory fees of all Funds other than Sun Capital Investment Grade Bond Fund^SM, Sun Capital Real Estate Fund^SM, SC^SM Davis Venture Value Fund, SC^SM Value Mid Cap Fund, SC^SM Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund and SC^SM Select Equity Fund for which the investment adviser waived a portion of its fees. Fee waivers and expense reimbursements for the Sun Capital Adviser Trust Funds may be discontinued at any time. To the extent that the expense ratio of any Fund in the Sun Capital Advisers Trust falls below the Fund's expense limit, the Fund's adviser reserves the right to be reimbursed for management fees waived and Fund expenses paid by it during the prior two years.

The management fee for each of the SC^SM Davis Funds decreases to 0.70% as the daily net assets of each Fund exceed $500 million.

The management fee for each of the SC^SM Neuberger Berman Funds decreases to 0.90% as the daily net assets of the Funds exceed $750 million.

The management fees for each of the SC^SM Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund, the SC^SM Investors Foundation Fund and the SC^SM Select Equity Fund decreases to 0.75%, 0.70% and 0.70% respectively, as the daily net assets of each Fund exceed $300 million.

What If Charges and Deductions Exceed Cash Surrender Value?

Unless the no-lapse guarantee applies, your Policy will terminate if your Cash Surrender Value at the beginning of any Policy Month is less than or equal to the charges and deductions then due.

We will send you notice and allow you a 61 day Grace Period.

Minimum Premium Test (No-Lapse Guarantee)

Subject to certain conditions, the Policy includes a no-lapse guarantee of up to 20 years. A shorter period will apply at older Issue Ages and may apply in some states.

Reinstatement

If your Policy terminates due to insufficient value, we will reinstate it within three years at your request, subject to certain conditions.

Maturity Extension

If the Policy has a Cash Value on the policy anniversary on which the younger Insured is Attained Age 100, the death benefit will be your Account Value.

No further premium payments will be accepted and no further monthly deductions will be imposed.

Federal Tax Considerations

Your purchase of, and transactions under, your Policy may have tax consequences that you should consider before purchasing a Policy. You may wish to consult a tax adviser. In general, the beneficiary will receive Policy Proceeds without there being taxable income. Increases in Account Value will not be taxable as earned, although there may be income tax due on a total surrender or partial withdrawal or on policy loans.

Some of the Funds' investment advisers may compensate us for administering the Funds as investment options under the Policy. Such compensation is paid from advisers' assets.

Fees and Expenses of the Funds

Our General Account

The Fixed Account Option is not a security and we are not an investment company.

Interests in our general account offered through the Fixed Account Option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and our general account has not been registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

You may allocate net premiums to the Fixed Account Option and may transfer a portion of your investments in the Sub-Accounts to the Fixed Account Option. You may also transfer a portion of your investment in the Fixed Account Option to any of the variable Sub-Accounts. Transfers may be subject to certain restrictions.

Fixed account investments earn at least 3% interest.

An investment in the Fixed Account Option does not entitle you to share in the investment experience of our general account. Instead, we guarantee that your Fixed Account Investment Option will accrue interest daily at an effective annual rate of at least 3%, without regard to the actual investment experience of our general account. We may, at our sole discretion, credit a higher rate of interest, but are not obligated to do so.

Investment Programs

The main objective of a dollar cost averaging program is to minimize the impact of short-term price fluctuations. Since the same dollar amount is transferred to other available Sub-Accounts at set intervals, dollar cost averaging allows you to purchase more Units (and, indirectly, more Fund shares) when prices are low and fewer Units (and, indirectly, fewer Fund shares) when prices are high. Therefore, a lower average cost per Unit may be achieved over the long-term. A dollar cost averaging program allows you to take advantage of market fluctuations. However, it is important to understand that a dollar cost averaging program does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.

Asset Rebalancing. Once your money has been allocated among the Sub-Accounts, the earnings may cause the percentage invested in each Sub-Account to differ from your allocation instructions. You can direct us to automatically rebalance your policy to return to your allocation percentages by selecting our asset rebalancing program. The rebalancing will be on a calendar quarter, semi-annual or annual basis, depending on your instructions. The minimum amount of each rebalancing is $1,000.

There is no charge for asset rebalancing. In addition, rebalancing will not be counted against any limit we may place on your number of Sub-Account transfers in a Policy Year. You may not select dollar cost averaging and asset rebalancing at the same time. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate this program at anytime. We also reserve the right to waive the $1,000 minimum amount for asset rebalancing.

About the Policy

The Issue Date is the date we produce your Policy on our system and is specified in your Policy.

Policy Application, Issuance and Initial Premium

To purchase a Policy, you must first submit an application to our Principal Office. We may then follow certain underwriting procedures designed to determine the insurability of the proposed Insureds. We offer the Policy on a regular (medical) underwriting basis and may require medical examinations and further information before the proposed application is approved. Both Insureds must generally be acceptable risks based on our underwriting limits and standards. We may, however, issue a Policy based on the health of one Insured where the other Insured would not normally be an acceptable risk for comparable individual life insurance coverage. A Policy cannot be issued until the underwriting process has been completed to our satisfaction. We reserve the right to reject an application that does not meet our underwriting requirements or to apply extra charges for the underwriting classification for an Insured which will result in increased Monthly Cost of Insurance charges.

While your application is being reviewed, we may make available to you temporary last survivor life insurance coverage if you have signed a Policy Application and, at that same time, submitted a separate signed application for temporary coverage and made an advance payment. The temporary coverage, if available, begins on the date that separate application is signed, has a maximum amount and is subject to other conditions.

Pending approval of your application, any advance payments will be held in our general account. Upon approval of the application, we will issue to you a Policy on the lives of the Insureds. A specified Initial Premium is due and payable as of the date of issue for the Policy. The Effective Date of Coverage for your Policy will be the later of-

the Issue Date, or

the date a premium is paid equal to or in excess of the specified Initial Premium.

If an application is not approved, we will promptly return all advance payments to you.

Right of Return Period

the difference between any premium payments made, including fees and charges, and the amounts allocated to the Variable Account;

the value of the amounts allocated to the Variable Account on the date the cancellation request is received by us at our Principal Office; and

any fees or charges imposed on amounts allocated to the Variable Account.

<R>

Unless you are entitled under applicable law to receive a full refund of premiums paid, we will allocate net premium payments to the Investment Options in accordance with your allocation instructions. You bear all of the investment risk during the Right of Return Period.

If you are entitled under applicable law to receive a full refund of premiums paid, we will allocate the net premium payments to the money market Sub-Account or to our general account, whichever we specify in your Policy. Upon expiration of the Right of Return Period, the Account Value in that Sub-Account or in the general account, as applicable, will be transferred to the Investment Options in accordance with your allocation instructions.

</R>

Premium Payments

Net Premiums. The net premium is the amount you pay as the premium less the Expense Charges Applied to Premium.

Allocation of Net Premium. Except as otherwise described herein, net premium will be allocated in accordance with your allocation percentages. You must allocate at least 1% of net premium to any Investment Option you choose. Percentages must be in whole numbers. We reserve the right to limit the number of Sub-Accounts to which you may allocate your Account Value to not more than 20 Sub-Accounts.

Planned Periodic Premiums. While you are not required to make additional premium payments according to a fixed schedule, you may select a planned periodic premium schedule and corresponding billing period, subject to our limits. We will send you reminder notices for the planned periodic premium at each billing period as specified in your Policy, unless reminder notices have been suspended as described below. You are not required, however, to pay the planned periodic premium; you may increase or decrease the planned periodic premium subject to our limits, and you may skip a planned payment or make unscheduled payments. You may change your planned payment schedule or the billing period, subject to our approval. Depending on the investment performance of the Sub-Accounts you select, the planned periodic premium may not be sufficient to keep your Policy in force, and you may need to change your planned payment schedule or make additional payments in order to prevent termination of your Policy. We will suspend reminder notices at your written request, and we reserve the right to suspend reminder notices if premiums are not being paid (except for notices in connection with the grace period). We will notify you prior to suspending reminder notices.

Death Benefit

If your Policy is in force at the time of the death of the Surviving Insured, we will pay the beneficiary an amount based on the death benefit option in effect once we have received Due Proof of the death of each Insured. The amount payable will be:

the amount of the death benefit option, plus

any amounts payable under any supplemental benefits added to your Policy, minus

the value of any outstanding Policy Debt on the date of death of the last Insured to die, minus

any unpaid charges and deductions if death occurs during the grace period.

You may select between two death benefit options.

We will pay this amount to the beneficiary in one lump sum, unless we and the beneficiary agree on another form of settlement.

The Policy has two death benefit options. You may change the death benefit option after the first Policy Year.

Option A. Under this option, the death benefit is-

o o	the Policy's Specified Face Amount on the date of death of the Surviving Insured; or, if greater, the Policy's Account Value on the date of death of the Surviving Insured multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the table set forth in Appendix B.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want the death benefit to remain level over time.

Option B. Under this option, the death benefit is-

o o	the sum of the Specified Face Amount and Account Value of the Policy on the date of death of the Surviving Insured; or, if greater, the Policy's Account Value on the date of death of the Surviving Insured multiplied by the applicable percentage shown in the table set forth in Appendix B.

This death benefit option should be selected if you want your death benefit to change with your Policy's Account Value.

If you change from Option B to Option A, the Specified Face Amount will be increased by an amount equal to the Policy's Account Value on the effective date of change. If you change from Option A to Option B, the Specified Face Amount will be decreased by an amount equal to the Policy's Account Value on the effective date of the change.

Changes in Specified Face Amount

You may increase or decrease the Specified Face Amount of your Policy within certain limits.

You may increase or decrease the Specified Face Amount within certain limits.

Increases. After the first Policy Year, you may request an increase in the Specified Face Amount. You must provide satisfactory evidence of insurability for each Insured. Once requested, an increase will become effective at the next policy anniversary following our approval of your request. The Policy does not allow for an increase if the Attained Age of either Insured is greater than 80 on the effective date of the increase.

Each increase in the Specified Face Amount must be at least $50,000. We reserve the right to change the minimum amount by which you may change the Specified Face Amount.

Decreases. The Specified Face Amount can be decreased after the fourth Policy Year. A decrease will become effective at the beginning of the next Policy Month following our approval of your request. The Specified Face Amount after the decrease must be at least $250,000. Surrender charges will apply to decreases in the Specified Face Amount during the surrender charge period except for decreases in the Specified Face Amount resulting from a change in the death benefit option or a partial withdrawal.

For purposes of determining surrender charges and later cost of insurance charges, we will apply a decrease in Specified Face Amount in the following order-

first, to the most recent increase;

second, to the next most recent increases, in reverse chronological order; and

third, to the initial Specified Face Amount.

Accessing Your Account Value

If you surrender your Policy and receive its Cash Surrender Value, you may incur surrender charges, taxes and tax penalties.	Surrenders and Surrender Charges. You may surrender your Policy for its Cash Surrender Value at any time while either Insured is living. If you do, your insurance coverage and all other benefits under the Policy will terminate. Cash Surrender Value is your Policy's Account Value less the sum of-
	o o	the outstanding balance of any Policy Debt; and any surrender charges.
	We will deduct surrender charges from your Account Value if you surrender your Policy or request a decrease in the Specified Face Amount during the surrender charge period. There are separate surrender charges for the initial Specified Face Amount and any increase in the Specified Face Amount you request. The surrender charge period will start on your Policy's Issue Date and on the effective date for the increase, respectively. The surrender charge period will be the shortest of-

the 15-year period following the applicable surrender charge period start date;

the longer of the 10-year period following the applicable surrender charge period start date, and the period ending when the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 85; and

the period ending when the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 95.

We will determine your Cash Surrender Value at the next close of business on the New York Stock Exchange after we receive your written request for surrender at our Principal Office.

If you surrender your Policy, we will apply a surrender charge to the initial Specified Face Amount and to each increase in the Specified Face Amount other than an increase resulting from a change in the death benefit option. The surrender charge will be calculated separately for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount. The surrender charge will be an amount based on certain factors, including the Policy's Specified Face Amount and the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The following are examples of surrender charges at representative Issue Ages.

First Year Surrender Charges

Per $1,000 of Specified Face Amount

(Male/Female Insured Pair, Non-tobacco)

Issue Ages 35&35

$5.52

Issue Ages 45&45

$15.54

Issue Ages 65&65

$26.25

Issue Ages 75&75

$46.00

Issue Ages 85&85

$49.25

		The surrender charge will be calculated based on the surrender charge percentages for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount. The surrender charge percentages begin at 100% in the first Policy Year and decrease with time. Examples of surrender charge percentages at representative Issue Ages are shown below.
Surrender Charge

16 and thereafter	0.000		0.000	0.000	0.000	0.000	0.000

A surrender charge will be applied for each decrease in the Specified Face Amount except for decreases in the Specified Face Amount resulting from a change in death benefit option or partial withdrawal. These surrender charges will be applied in the following order:

first, to the most recent increase;

second, to the next most recent increases, in reverse chronological order; and

third, to the initial Specified Face Amount.

On a decrease in the initial Specified Face Amount, you will pay a proportion of the full surrender charge based on the ratio of the Specified Face Amount decrease to the initial Specified Face Amount. The surrender charge you pay on a decrease that is less than the full amount of an increase in Specified Face Amount will be calculated on the same basis. Future surrender charges will be reduced by any applicable surrender charges for a decrease in the Specified Face Amount.

You may allocate any surrender charges resulting from a decrease in the Specified Face Amount among the Investment Options. If you do not specify the allocation, then the surrender charges will be allocated proportionally among the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt.

Partial Withdrawals. You may make a partial withdrawal of your Policy once each Policy Year after the first Policy Year by written request to us. Each partial withdrawal must be for at least $500, and no partial withdrawal may be made-

during Policy Years 2-10 for more than 20 percent of your Cash Surrender Value at the end of the first Valuation Date after we receive your request; or

thereafter for more than your Cash Surrender Value.

If the applicable death benefit option is Option A, the Specified Face Amount will be decreased by the amount of the partial withdrawal. We will apply the decrease to the initial Specified Face Amount and to each increase in Specified Face Amount in the following order-

first, to the most recent increase;

second, to the next most recent increases, in reverse chronological order; and

third, to the initial Specified Face Amount.

You may borrow from us using your Policy as collateral.

We will not accept requests for a partial withdrawal if the Specified Face Amount remaining in force after the partial withdrawal would be less than the minimum Specified Face Amount. We will effect a partial withdrawal at the next close of business on the New York Stock Exchange after we receive your written request.

Policy Loans. You may request a policy loan of up to 90% of your Policy's Cash Value, decreased by the amount of any outstanding Policy Debt on the date the policy loan is made. Your Policy will terminate for no value subject to a grace period if the Policy Debt exceeds the Cash Value. During the no-lapse guarantee period, however, your Policy will not terminate if it satisfies the minimum premium test.

You may allocate the policy loan among the Investment Options. If you do not specify the allocation, then the policy loan will be allocated proportionally among the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt. Loan amounts allocated to the Sub-Accounts will be transferred to the Fixed Account Option. We will periodically credit interest at an effective annual rate of 3% on the loaned values of the Fixed Account Option.

Interest on the policy loan will accrue daily at 4% annually during Policy Years 1 through 10 and 3% annually thereafter. This interest will be due and payable to us in arrears on each policy anniversary. Any unpaid interest will be added to the principal amount as an additional policy loan and will bear interest at the same rate and will be assessed in the same manner as the prior policy loan.

There is no definitive guidance concerning the tax treatment of a policy loan when the interest rate credited to the loan is the same as the interest rate charged against the loan. You should consult your tax adviser regarding loan amounts in Policy Years 11 and thereafter.

All funds we receive from you will be credited to your Policy as premium unless we have received written notice, in a form satisfactory to us, that the funds are for loan repayment. In the event you have a loan against the Policy, it is generally advantageous to repay the loan rather than make a premium payment because premium payments incur expense charges whereas loan repayments do not. Loan repayments will first reduce the outstanding balance of the policy loan and then accrued but unpaid interest on such loans. We reserve the right to repay any loans from the Fixed Account Option prior to loans from the Variable Account.

A policy loan, whether or not repaid, will affect the Policy Proceeds payable upon the death of the Surviving Insured and the Account Value because the investment results of the Sub-Accounts will apply only to the non-loaned portion of the Account Value. The longer a loan is outstanding, the greater the effect is likely to be and, depending on the investment results of the Sub-Accounts or the value of the Fixed Account Option while the loan is outstanding, the effect could be favorable or unfavorable.

Transfer Privileges

The Policy is not designed for professional market timing organizations or other entities using programmed and frequent transfers. If you wish to employ such strategies, you should not purchase a Policy. Accordingly, such transfers may be subject to special restrictions. Subject, however, to these special restrictions and to our rules as they may exist from time to time and to any limits that may be imposed by the Funds, you may at any time transfer to another Sub-Account all or a portion of the Account Value allocated to a Sub-Account or to the Fixed Account Option. There is usually no charge imposed on transfers; however, we reserve the right to impose a transfer charge of $15 for each transfer above 12 transfers in any one Policy Year. We will make transfers pursuant to an authorized written or telephone request to us. Telephone requests will be honored only if we have a properly completed telephone authorization form for you on file. We, our affiliates and the representative from whom you purchased your Policy will not be responsible for losses resulting from acting upon telephone requests reasonably believed to be genuine. We will use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine. For transactions initiated by telephone, you will be required to identify yourself by name and a personal identification number.

Transfers may be requested by indicating the transfer of either a specified dollar amount or a specified percentage of the value of the Fixed Account Option or the Sub-Account's value from which the transfer will be made. If you request a transfer based on a specified percentage of the value of the Fixed Account Option or the Sub-Account's value, that percentage will be converted into a request for the transfer of a specified dollar amount based on application of the specified percentage to the Fixed Account Option or the Sub-Account's value at the time the request is received. We reserve the right to limit the number of Sub-Accounts to which you may allocate your Account Value to not more than 20 Sub-Accounts.

Transfer privileges are subject to our consent. We reserve the right to impose limitations on transfers, including, but not limited to: (1) the minimum amount that may be transferred; and (2) the minimum amount that may remain in a Sub-Account following a transfer from that Sub-Account.

We reserve the right to restrict transfers from the Fixed Account Option to the Sub-Accounts to one transfer per Policy Year. We further reserve the right to restrict the amounts transferred to the Sub-Accounts from the Fixed Account Option to the greater of 25% of that portion of the Account Value attributable to the Fixed Account Option as of the end of the previous Policy Year and $5,000.

We reserve the right to restrict amounts transferred to the Fixed Account Option from the Variable Account.

Account Value

Your Account Value is the sum of the values in each Sub-Account of the Variable Account with respect to your Policy, plus the value of the Fixed Account Option. The Account Value varies depending upon the Premiums paid, Expense Charges Applied to Premium, Mortality and Expense Risk Charges, Monthly Expense Charges, Monthly Cost of Insurance charges, partial withdrawals, fees, policy loans and the net investment factor (described below).

The minimum guaranteed interest rate applicable to the values in the Fixed Account Option is 3% annually. Interest in excess of the guaranteed rate may be applied in such a manner as we may determine, based on our expectations of future interest, mortality costs, persistency, expenses and taxes. Interest credited will be computed on a compound interest basis.

A Valuation Date is any day on which we, the applicable Fund, and the NYSE are open for business.

The Valuation Period is the period of time from one determination of Unit Values to the next.

Variable Account Value. We measure the amounts in the Sub-Accounts in terms of Units and Unit Values. On any given date, the amount you have in a Sub-Account is equal to the Unit Value multiplied by the number of Units credited to you in that Sub-Account. Amounts allocated to a Sub-Account will be used to purchase Units of that Sub-Account. Units are redeemed when you make partial withdrawals, undertake policy loans or transfer amounts from a Sub-Account, and for the payment of Monthly Expense Charges, Mortality and Expense Risk Charges, Monthly Cost of Insurance charges and other fees. The number of Units of each Sub-Account purchased or redeemed is determined by dividing the dollar amount of the transaction by the Unit Value for the Sub-Account. The Unit Value for each Sub-Account is established at $10.00 for the first Valuation Date of the Sub-Account. The Unit Value for any subsequent Valuation Date is equal to the Unit Value for the preceding Valuation Date multiplied by the net investment factor (determined as provided below). The Unit Value of a Sub-Account for any Valuation Date is determined as of the close of the Valuation Period ending on that Valuation Date.

The Investment Start Date is the date we apply your first premium payment, which will be the later of the Issue Date, the policy date or the Valuation Date we receive a premium equal to or in excess of the Initial Premium.	The Account Value on the Investment Start Date equals:
	o o	the net premium received, minus the monthly deductions due on the policy date and subsequent Monthly Anniversary Days through the Investment Start Date charged to the Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account Option.
	The Account Value on subsequent Valuation Dates is equal to:
	o o o o o	the values on the previous Valuation Date, plus any additional net premium received, plus or minus the investment experience of the Investment Options you have selected, minus policy charges and deductions, minus any partial withdrawals you have made.
	Net Investment Factor. The net investment factor for each Sub-Account for any Valuation Period is the quotient of (1) divided by (2) where: (1) is the net result of-
	o o o		the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Sub-Account determined as of the end of the Valuation Period, plus the per share amount of any dividend or other distribution declared on Fund shares held in the Sub-Account if the "ex-dividend" date occurs during the Valuation Period, plus or minus a per share credit or charge with respect to any taxes reserved for by us, or paid by us if not previously reserved for, during the Valuation Period which are determined by us to be attributable to the operation of the Sub-Account; and
	(2) is the net asset value of a Fund share held in the Sub-Account determined as of the end of the preceding Valuation Period. The net investment factor may be greater or less than one. Insufficient Value. Your Policy will terminate for no value, subject to a Grace Period described below if, on a Processing Date,
	o o		your Policy's Cash Surrender Value is equal to or less than zero or the Policy Debt exceeds the Cash Value.
	During the no-lapse guarantee period, a Policy will not terminate by reason of insufficient value if it satisfies the "minimum premium test" described below. Minimum Premium Test (No-Lapse Guarantee). A Policy satisfies the minimum premium test if the premiums paid less any partial withdrawals less any Policy Debt exceed the sum of the "Minimum Monthly Premiums" which applied to the Policy in each Policy Month from the policy date to the Valuation Date. The applicable Minimum Monthly Premiums are specified in your Policy. We may revise the Minimum Monthly Premiums as a result of any of the following changes to a Policy:
	o o			a change in Specified Face Amount a change in supplemental benefit
	The revised Minimum Monthly Premiums will be effective as of the effective date of the change to the Policy and will remain in effect until again revised by any of the above changes. The length of the no-lapse guarantee period will be different based on the age of the Insureds. It may also vary in some states, but in no case will it be greater than 20 years. Grace Period. If, on a Valuation Date, your Policy will terminate by reason of insufficient value, we will allow a grace period. This grace period will allow 61 days from that Valuation Date for the payment of a premium sufficient to keep the Policy in force. Notice of premium due will be mailed to your last known address and the last known address of any assignee of record. We will assume that your last known address is the address shown on your Application (or notice of assignment), unless we receive written notice of a change in address in a form satisfactory to us. If the premium due is not paid within 61 days after the beginning of the grace period, then the Policy and all rights to benefits will terminate without value at the end of the 61 day period. The Policy will continue to remain in force during this grace period. If the Policy Proceeds become payable by us during the grace period, then any overdue monthly deductions will be deducted from the amount payable by us. Splitting Units. We reserve the right to split or combine the value of Units. In effecting any such change, strict equity will be preserved and no change will have a material effect on the benefits or other provisions of your Policy. Charges and Deductions The monthly deductions described below are the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge, Monthly Expense Charge, Monthly Cost of Insurance and the charges for any supplemental benefits. Expense Charges Applied to Premium. We will deduct a charge from each premium payment as a sales load and for our federal, state and local tax obligations, which we will determine from time to time. For all Policy Years, the guaranteed maximum charge is 8% of premiums. The current charge is 6%. Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. We will deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value for the mortality and expense risks we assume with respect to the Policy. It is a percentage of the Variable Account value and is deducted proportionally from the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt.

	The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge percentage will not exceed 0.60% annually for Policy Years 1-15 and 0.20% annually thereafter. "Mortality and Expense Risk Charge" is referred to as "Product Risk Charge" in Maryland policies. The mortality risk we assume is that the group of lives insured under the policies may, on average, live for shorter periods of time than we estimated. The expense risk we assume is that our costs of issuing and administering policies may be more than we estimated. Monthly Expense Charge. We will deduct a monthly charge from your Account Value for the first 10 Policy Years following the issuance of your Policy based on the initial Specified Face Amount and for the first 10 Policy Years following the effective date of each increase in the Specified Face Amount, if any, based on the amount of the increase. The applicable charge is equal to the initial Specified Face Amount or the amount of increase, as the case may be, times a rate that varies based on the age, sex and rating class of each Insured. The charge is deducted proportionally from the amounts in the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt and covers administration expenses and issuance costs. Monthly Cost of Insurance. We deduct a Monthly Cost of Insurance charge from your Account Value to cover anticipated costs of providing insurance coverage. The Monthly Cost of Insurance deduction will be charged proportionally to the amounts in the Investment Options in excess of any Policy Debt. The Monthly Cost of Insurance equals the sum of (1), (2) and (3) where: (1) is the cost of insurance charge equal to the Monthly Cost of Insurance rate (described below) multiplied by the net amount at risk divided by 1,000; (2) is the monthly rider cost for any riders which are a part of your Policy; and (3) is any additional insurance charge calculated as specified in your Policy, for, among other reasons, occupational or avocational risks. The net amount at risk equals:
	o o	the death benefit divided by 1.00247; minus your Account Value on the Processing Date prior to assessing the monthly deductions.
	If there are increases in the Specified Face Amount other than increases caused by changes in the death benefit option, the cost of insurance charge described above is determined separately for the initial Specified Face Amount and each increase in the Specified Face Amount. In calculating the net amount at risk, your Account Value will first be allocated to the initial death benefit and then to each increase in the Specified Face Amount in the order in which the increases were made. Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates (except for any such rate applicable to an increase in the Specified Face Amount) are based on the length of time your Policy has been in force and the sex, Issue Age and rating class of each Insured. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates applicable to each increase in the Specified Face Amount are based on the length of time the increase has been in force and the sex, Issue Age and rating class of each Insured. The Monthly Cost of Insurance rates will be determined by us from time to time based on our expectations of future experience with respect to mortality costs, persistency, interest rates, expenses and taxes, but will not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates based on the 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary Smoker and Nonsmoker Mortality Tables.

Waivers and Reduced Charges

Maturity Date Extension

If the Policy has a Cash Value on the Policy Anniversary on which the younger Insured is Attained Age 100, the following will apply:

We will not accept any more premium payments for your Policy.

No more monthly deductions will be made from your Account Value.

The death benefit will be your Account Value.

Your Policy's reinstatement provisions will not apply.

Your Policy may not qualify as life insurance beyond the Policy Anniversary on which the younger Insured is Attained Age 100 and may be subject to tax consequences. We recommend that you receive counsel from your tax adviser. We will not be responsible for any adverse tax consequences resulting from the extension of the Maturity date of your Policy.

Supplemental Benefits

Maturity Extension With Full Death Benefit Rider. This rider maintains the Specified Face Amount and death benefit option in effect on the policy anniversary on which the younger Insured is Attained Age 100 for the continued duration of the Policy.

Supplemental Insurance Rider. This rider provides for additional insurance on the life of the Surviving Insured by combining term coverage with the underlying variable universal life ("base policy") coverage. This rider has separate charges associated with it. At this time, those charges are lower than base policy charges for the same coverage.

By combining coverage under this rider with base policy coverage, you may be able to buy the same amount of death benefit for less premium than if you had purchased an all base policy. If this rider is combined with base policy coverage, the same amount of premium paid for the combined coverage as for an all base policy will generate faster cash value accumulation within the base policy.

At issue, the base policy may have a no-lapse guarantee period as long as 20 years. However, this rider's no-lapse guarantee period is limited to five years. This rider will terminate at the policy anniversary on which the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 100. Base policy coverage will continue beyond Attained Age 100, however, provided there is cash value in the Policy when the younger Insured reaches Attained Age 100. If a key objective is guarantees, supplementing your Policy with this rider may therefore not be appropriate.

Termination of Policy

Your Policy will terminate on the earlier of the date we receive your request to surrender, the expiration date of the Grace Period without our receipt of premium due or the date of death of the Surviving Insured.

Reinstatement

We will reinstate your Policy prior to the policy anniversary on which the younger Insured is Attained Age 100, provided that the Policy has not been surrendered and neither of the Insureds died after the date of termination and you-

make a request for reinstatement within three years from the date of termination;

submit satisfactory evidence of insurability for both Insureds if both are living at the time reinstatement is requested;

submit satisfactory evidence of insurability for the Surviving Insured if the other Insured died prior to the date the Policy terminated; and

pay an amount sufficient to put the Policy in force.

Deferral of Payment

We will usually pay any amount due from the Variable Account within seven days after the Valuation Date following our receipt of written notice satisfactory to us giving rise to such payment or, in the case of the death of the Surviving Insured, Due Proof of the death of each Insured. Payment is subject to our rights under the Policy's incontestability and suicide provisions. Payment of any amount payable from the Variable Account on death of the Surviving Insured, total surrender, partial withdrawal or policy loan may be postponed whenever:

the New York Stock Exchange is closed other than customary weekend and holiday closing, or trading on the NYSE is otherwise restricted;

the Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, permits postponement for the protection of policyowners; or

Rights of Owner

While the Surviving Insured is alive, unless you have assigned any of these rights, you may:

transfer ownership to a new owner;

name a contingent owner who will automatically become the owner of the Policy if you die before the Surviving Insured;

change or revoke a contingent owner;

change or revoke a beneficiary;

exercise all other rights in the Policy;

increase or decrease the Specified Face Amount, subject to the other provisions of the Policy;

change the death benefit option, subject to the other provisions of the Policy.

When you transfer your rights to a new owner, you automatically revoke any prior contingent owner designation. When you want to change or revoke a prior beneficiary designation, you have to specify that action. You do not affect a prior beneficiary when you merely transfer ownership, or change or revoke a contingent owner designation.

Rights of Beneficiary

The beneficiary has no rights in the Policy until the death of the Surviving Insured. If a beneficiary is alive at that time, the beneficiary will be entitled to payment of the Policy Proceeds as they become due.

Other Policy Provisions

Entire Contract. Your entire contract with us consists solely of the Policy, including the attached copy of your Application, any attached supplemental applications, any attached riders and any attached endorsements.

Modification. Upon notice to you, we may modify the Policy if such a modification-

o o o o		is necessary to make the Policy or the Variable Account comply with any law or regulation issued by a governmental agency to which we are or the Variable Account is subject; is necessary to assure continued qualification of the Policy under the Internal Revenue Code or other federal or state laws as a life insurance policy; is necessary to reflect a change in the operation of the Variable Account or the Sub-Accounts; or adds, deletes or otherwise changes Sub-Account options.
	We also reserve the right to modify certain provisions of the Policy as stated in those provisions. In the event of any such modification, we may make appropriate amendments to the Policy to reflect such modification. Assignments. While the Surviving Insured is alive, you may assign all or some of your rights under the Policy. All assignments must be filed at our Principal Office and must be in written form satisfactory to us. The assignment will then be effective as of the date you signed the form, subject to any action taken before we acknowledge receipt. We are not responsible for the validity or legal effect of any assignment. Nonparticipating. The Policy does not pay dividends. The Policy does not share in our profits or surplus earnings. Misstatement of Age or Sex. If the age or sex of either Insured is stated incorrectly, the amounts payable by us will be adjusted as follows: Misstatement discovered at death of the Surviving Insured-The death benefit will be recalculated to that which would be purchased by the most recently charged Monthly Cost of Insurance rate for the correct age or sex of each Insured. Misstatement discovered prior to death of the Surviving Insured-Your Account Value will be recalculated from the policy date using the Monthly Cost of Insurance rates based on the correct age or sex of each Insured.
	Suicide. If the Surviving Insured, whether sane or insane, commits suicide within two years after your Policy's Issue Date, we will not pay any part of the Policy Proceeds. We will refund the premiums paid, less the amount of any Policy Debt and any partial withdrawals. If the Surviving Insured, whether sane or insane, commits suicide within two years after the effective date of an increase in the Specified Face Amount, then our liability as to that increase will be the cost of insurance for that increase. Incontestability. All statements made in the application or in a supplemental application are representations and not warranties. We relied and will rely on those statements when approving the issuance, increase in face amount, increase in death benefit over premium paid, change in death benefit option or reinstatement of the Policy. No statement can be used by us in defense of a claim unless the statement was made in the application or in a supplemental application. In the absence of fraud, after the Policy has been in force during the lifetime of the Insureds for a period of two years from its Issue Date, we cannot contest it except for non-payment of premiums. However, any increase in the face amount which is effective after the Issue Date will be incontestable only after such increase has been in force during the lifetime of the Insureds for two years from the Effective Date of Coverage of such increase. Any increase in death benefit over premium paid or increase in death benefit due to a death benefit option change will be incontestable only after such increase has been in force during the lifetime of the Insureds for two years from the date of the increase. Any reinstatement will be incontestable after the reinstated Policy has been in force during the lifetime of any Insured providing evidence of insurability for the reinstatement for two years from the effective date of the reinstatement. Report to Owner. We will send you a report at least once each Policy Year. The report will show current policy values, premiums paid and deductions made since the last report. It will also show the balance of any outstanding policy loans and accrued interest on such loans. There is no charge for this report.
			Performance Information

We may present mutual fund portfolio performance and hypothetical Policy illustrations in sales literature.

Portfolio Performance

We may publish a mutual fund portfolio's total return and yields adjusted for charges against the assets of the Variable Account.

Other Information

Performance information may be compared, in reports and promotional literature, to:

We may provide Policy information on various topics of interest to you and other prospective policyowners. These topics may include:

the relationship between sectors of the economy and the economy as a whole and its effect on various securities markets;

investment strategies and techniques (such as value investing, market timing, dollar cost averaging, asset allocation, constant ratio transfer and account rebalancing);

the advantages and disadvantages of investing in tax-deferred and taxable investments;

customer profiles and hypothetical purchase and investment scenarios;

financial management and tax and retirement planning; and

investment alternatives to certificates of deposit and other financial instruments, including comparisons between a Policy and the characteristics of, and market for, such financial instruments.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

We do not make any guarantees about the Policy's tax status.

Tax Status of the Policy

We believe the Policy will be treated as a life insurance contract under federal tax laws.

Diversification of Investments

The following discussion assumes that your Policy will qualify as a life insurance contract for federal income tax purposes.

Tax Treatment of Policy Benefits

Death benefits do not incur federal income tax.

Investment gains are normally not taxed unless distributed to you before the death of the Surviving Insured.

Life Insurance Death Benefit Proceeds. In general, the amount of the death benefit payable under your Policy is excludible from your gross income under the Code.

Distributions. If you surrender your Policy, the amount you will receive as a result will be subject to tax as ordinary income to the extent that the amount exceeds the "investment in the contract," which is generally the total of premiums and other consideration paid for the Policy, less all amounts previously received under the Policy to the extent those amounts were excludible from gross income.

Depending on the circumstances, any of the following transactions may have federal income tax consequences:

the exchange of a Policy for a life insurance, endowment or annuity contract;

a change in the death benefit option;

a policy loan;

a partial withdrawal;

a total surrender;

a change in the ownership of a Policy;

a continuation of a Policy beyond the policy anniversary on which the younger Insured is Attained Age 100; or

an assignment of a Policy.

In addition, federal, state and local transfer and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of Policy Proceeds will depend on your circumstances and those of the named beneficiary. Whether partial withdrawals (or other amounts deemed to be distributed) constitute income subject to federal income tax depends, in part, upon whether your Policy is considered a "modified endowment contract."

If you pay more premiums than permitted under the seven-pay test, your Policy will be a MEC.

We will monitor the Policy to determine whether additional premium payments would cause the Policy to become a MEC and will take certain steps in an attempt to avoid this result.

If your Policy becomes a MEC, partial withdrawals, loans and surrenders may incur taxes and tax penalties.	Distributions under Modified Endowment Contracts. If treated as a MEC, your Policy will be subject to the following tax rules:
	o o o	First, partial withdrawals are treated as ordinary income subject to tax up to the amount equal to the excess (if any) of your Account Value immediately before the distribution over the "investment in the contract" at the time of the distribution. Second, policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are treated as partial withdrawals and taxed accordingly. Any past-due loan interest that is added to the amount of the loan is treated as a loan. Third, a 10 percent additional income tax is imposed on that portion of any distribution (including distributions upon total surrender and partial withdrawal), policy loan or loan secured by the Policy, that is included in income, except where the distribution or loan is:
		o o o	made when you are age 59 1/2 or older; attributable to your becoming disabled; or is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments for the duration of your life (or life expectancy) or for the duration of the longer of your or the beneficiary's life (or life expectancies).

These exceptions may only apply if the Policy is owned by an individual and, generally do not apply if the Policy is owned by a legal entity such as a trust, partnership or corporation.

If your Policy is not a MEC, policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are generally not treated as distributions. Such loans are instead treated as your indebtedness.

Finally, if your Policy is not a MEC, distributions (including distributions upon total surrender and partial withdrawal), policy loans and loans secured by the Policy are not subject to the 10 percent additional tax.

We may be required to withhold taxes from certain distributions to you.

Our Taxes

Distribution of Policy

Gross first year commissions plus any expense allowance payments we pay on the sale of the Policy may vary with the sales agreement with broker-dealers depending on the particular circumstances, but is not expected to exceed 95% of the target premium, which will vary based on each Insured's age, sex and rating class, plus 5% of any excess premium payments. Gross renewal commissions in Policy Years 2 through 10 will not exceed 5% of actual premium payments, and will not exceed 2% in Policy Years 11 and thereafter. In addition, we may also pay override payments, expense allowances, bonuses, wholesaler fees and training allowances. In Policy Year 3 and thereafter, 0.10% of the Variable Account Value per annum will be paid to broker-dealers.

Voting Rights

We will vote shares held in each Sub-Account for which no timely instructions from policyowners are received, together with shares not attributable to a Policy, in the same proportion as those shares in that Sub-Account for which instructions are received. Should the applicable federal securities laws change so as to permit us to vote shares held in the Variable Account in our own right, we may elect to do so.

*	The effective date of these investment options in Variable Account I is May 1, 2001.
**	No expense ratio is presented as of December 31, 2001 as all charges currently relating to Variable Account I are made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units. An expense ratio represents the annualized contract expenses of the separate account, and includes only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values.
***	These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets. These ratios exclude those expenses that result in the direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccounts invest.
****	These amounts represent the total return for the period indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying fund, and reflect deductions for all items included in the expense ratio. The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. Investment options with a date notation indicate the effective date of that investment option in the variable account. The total return is calculated for the period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.):

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Sample Hypothetical Illustrations

Hypothetical Illustrations of Cash Surrender Values, Account Values and Death Benefits

The amounts shown for the death benefits and the Account Values take into account all charges and deductions imposed under the Policy based on the assumptions set forth below. These include the Expense Charge Applied to Premium, the Monthly Mortality and Expense Risk Charge charged against the Variable Account Value for mortality and expense risks, the Monthly Expense Charge and the Monthly Cost of Insurance. The Expense Charge Applied to Premium is equal to 6.00% as a sales load and for our federal, state and local tax obligations and is guaranteed not to exceed 8.00%. The Monthly Mortality and Expense Risk charge is a percentage of the values in the Variable Account Value. The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge percentage is .60% (.05% monthly) annually for Policy Years 1 through 15 and .20% (.01667% monthly) annually thereafter. The Monthly Expense Charge is a monthly charge made in the first 15 Policy Years based on the Specified Face Amount and the classifications of the insured lives.

The amounts shown in the tables also take into account the fund's advisory fees and operating expenses, which are assumed to be at an annual rate of .88% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. This is based upon a simple average of the advisory fees and expenses of all the Funds for the most recent fiscal year taking into account any applicable expense caps or expense reimbursement arrangements. Actual fees and expenses of the Funds may be more or less than .88%, will vary from year to year, and will depend upon how Account Value is allocated among the Sub-Accounts. See the Fund prospectuses for more information on Fund expenses. The gross annual rates of investment return of 0%, 6% and 12% correspond to net annual rates of -.88%, 5.12% and 11.12%, respectively.

The second column of each table shows the amount which would accumulate if an amount equal to each premium were invested, after taxes, at 5% per year, compounded annually.

(1) Assumes a $10,000.00 premium is paid at the beginning of each Policy Year. Values will be different if premiums are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.

(2) Assumes that no policy loans have been made. Excessive loans or partial withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse due to insufficient Policy Value.

The hypothetical investment rates of return are illustrative only, and should not be deemed a representation of past or future investment rates of return. Actual investment results may be more or less than those shown, and will depend on a number of factors, including the investment allocations by a Policy Owner, and the different investment rates of return for the Funds. The Cash Surrender Value and Death Benefit for a Policy would be different from those shown if the actual rates of investment averaged 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of years, but fluctuated above and below those averages for individual Policy Years. They would also be different if any Policy loans or partial withdrawals were made. No representations can be made that these hypothetical investment rates can be achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

*Policy terminates due to insufficient values.

(1) Assumes a $12,000.00 premium is paid at the beginning of each Policy Year. Values will be different if premiums are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.

(2) Assumes that no policy loans have been made. Excessive loans or partial withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse due to insufficient Policy Value.

The hypothetical investment rates of return are illustrative only, and should not be deemed a representation of past or future investment rates of return. Actual investment results may be more or less than those shown, and will depend on a number of factors, including the investment allocations by a Policy Owner, and the different investment rates of return for the Funds. The Cash Surrender Value and Death Benefit for a Policy would be different from those shown if the actual rates of investment averaged 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of years, but fluctuated above and below those averages for individual Policy Years. They would also be different if any Policy loans or partial withdrawals were made. No representations can be made that these hypothetical investment rates can be achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

PART II

UNDERTAKING TO FILE REPORTS

Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic information, documents, and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or regulation of the Commission heretofore or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to authority conferred in that section.

REPRESENTATION OF REASONABLENESS OF FEES

Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.)("Sun Life of Canada (U.S.)") hereby represents that the aggregate fees and charges under the Policy are reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and the risks assumed by Sun Life (U.S.).

UNDERTAKING ON INDEMNIFICATION

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the depositor pursuant to its certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or otherwise, the depositor 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 depositor of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the depositor 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 depositor 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 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.
