Issued through

Farmers Variable Life Separate Account A (the “Separate Account”)

Offered by

Farmers New World Life Insurance Company

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING FUND MERGER

Effective October 23, 2009, the PVC MidCap Stock Account will merge into and become part of the PVC MidCap Blend Account of Principal Variable Contracts Funds, Inc. (“PVC”). As of the close of business on October 23, 2009, the subaccount investing in the PVC MidCap Stock Account will own shares of the PVC MidCap Blend Account, and will be combined into a new subaccount that invests in the PVC MidCap Blend Account. Following the merger, your investment in the subaccount investing in the PVC MidCap Stock Account will automatically become an investment in the subaccount investing in the PVC MidCap Blend Account.

Unless you provide us with alternative instructions, any instructions that you have in effect with respect to the subaccount that invests in the PVC MidCap Stock Account will be treated as instructions with respect to the subaccount that invests in the PVC MidCap Blend Account. Such instructions would include, for example, instructions as to allocation of premium payments and instructions for automatic programs, such as the Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program or Dollar Cost Averaging Program. However, you may change such instructions at any time, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in your Contract to the Prospectus.

You will not incur any fees or charges or any tax liability because of the merger, and your contract value in the subaccount corresponding to the PVC MidCap Stock Account immediately before the merger will equal your contract value in the subaccount corresponding to the PVC MidCap Blend Account immediately after the merger.

This Supplement amends the current Prospectus by removing references to PVC MidCap Stock Account and inserting PVC MidCap Blend Account in the following places:

1. In the identification of the funding choices on the cover page of the Prospectus, under Principal Variable Contracts Funds, Inc. (“PVC”) – Class 2 Shares, delete reference to PVC MidCap Stock Account and replace it with the following:

Principal Variable Contracts Funds, Inc. (“PVC”) – Class 2 Shares

PVC MidCap Blend Account¹ (effective 10-23-09)

¹ Effective after the close of business on October 23, 2009, the PVC MidCap Stock Account was merged into the existing PVC MidCap Blend Account of Principal Variable Contracts Funds, Inc.

2. On page 16 of your Prospectus, delete reference to the PVC MidCap Stock Account and add the following:

Portfolio	Investment Objective and Investment Adviser
PVC MidCap Blend Account (Class 2 Shares) (effective 10-23-09)2	Seeks to achieve capital appreciation. The investment adviser is Principal Management Corporation and the portfolio is currently managed by Principal Global Investors.

Item 29. Indemnification

Under its By-laws, Farmers New World Life Insurance Company, to the full extent permitted by the Washington Business Corporation Act, will indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director of Farmers, as provided below.

By-Laws of Farmers New World Life Insurance Company (as amended October 24, 1995)

SECTION 47

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AND OTHER PERSONS

(a) Right of Indemnity. Each person who acts as a Director, officer or employee of the corporation shall be indemnified by the corporation for all sums which he becomes obligated to pay, (including counsel fees, expenses and court costs actually and necessarily incurred by him) in connection with any action, suit or proceeding in which he is made a party by reason of his being, or having been a Director, officer, or employee of the corporation, except in relation to matters as to which he shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding to be liable for bad faith or misconduct in the performance of his duties as such Director, officer or employee, and except any sum paid to the corporation in settlement of an action, suit or proceeding based upon bad faith or misconduct in the performance of his duties.

C-9

(b) Scope of Indemnity. The right of indemnification in this article provided shall inure to each Director, officer and employee of the corporation, whether or not he is such Director, officer or employee at the time he shall become obligated to pay such sums, and whether or not the claim asserted against him is based on matters which antedate the adoption of this article; and in the event of his death shall extend to his legal representatives. Each person who shall act as a Director, officer or employee of the corporation shall be deemed to be doing so in reliance upon such right of indemnification; and such right shall not be deemed exclusive of any other right to which any such person may be entitled, under any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders, or otherwise.

(c) Determination of Claims for Indemnity. The Board of Directors of the corporation, acting at a meeting at which a majority of the quorum is unaffected by self-interest (notwithstanding that other members of the quorum present but not voting may be so affected), shall determine the propriety and reasonableness of any indemnity claimed under this article, and such determination shall be final and conclusive. If, however, a majority of a quorum of the Board which is unaffected by self-interest and willing to act is not obtainable, the Board in its discretion may appoint from among the stockholders who are not Directors or officers or employees of the corporation, a committee of two or more persons to consider and determine any such question, and the determination of such committee shall be final and conclusive.

RULE 484 UNDERTAKING

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question 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.

Item 30. Principal Underwriter
