At December 31, 2007, contract owners were invested in all of the above funds except those noted with an asterisk (*). The contract owners’ equity is affected by the investment results of each fund, equity transactions by contract owners and certain contract expenses (see notes 2 and 3). The accompanying financial statements include only contract owners’ purchase payments pertaining to the variable portions of their contracts and exclude any purchase payments for fixed dollar benefits, the latter being included in the Accounts of the Company.

A contract owner may choose from among a number of different underlying mutual fund options. The underlying mutual fund options are not available to the general public directly. The underlying mutual funds are available as investment options in variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies or, in some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or retirement plans.

Some of the underlying mutual funds have been established by investment advisers which manage publicly traded mutual funds having similar names and investment objectives. While some of the underlying mutual funds may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after, publicly traded mutual funds, the underlying mutual funds are not otherwise directly related to any publicly traded mutual fund. Consequently, the investment performance of publicly traded mutual funds and any corresponding underlying mutual funds may differ substantially.

 

  (c) Security Valuation, Transactions and Related Investment Income

Investments in underlying mutual funds are valued on the closing net asset value per share at December 31, 2007 of such funds, which value their investment securities at fair value. Fund purchases and sales are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). The cost of investments sold is determined on a First in – First out basis, and dividends (which include capital gain distributions) are accrued as of the ex-dividend date and are reinvested in the underlying mutual funds.

(Continued)

NATIONWIDE VLI SEPARATE ACCOUNT-6 (NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued)

 

  (d) Federal Income Taxes

Operations of the Account form a part of, and are taxed with, operations of the Company, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

The Company does not provide for income taxes within the Account. Taxes are the responsibility of the contract owner upon termination or withdrawal.

 

  (e) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S generally accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, 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.

 

  (f) New Accounting Pronouncement

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities and requires new disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 also provides guidance regarding the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. For assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to initial recognition, the reporting entity shall disclose information that enables financial statement users to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements. SFAS 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt SFAS 157 effective January 1, 2008. SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

 

(2) Policy Charges

 

  (a) Deductions from Premiums

The Company deducts a premium load charge to cover sales loads and state premium taxes. The sales load portion of the premium load charge is $5 per $1,000 of premium and covers sales expenses incurred by the Company. The premium tax portion of the premium load charge is $35 per $1,000 of premium and is used to reimburse the Company for state and local premium taxes (at the estimated rate of 2.25%), and for federal premium taxes (at the estimated rate of 1.25%).

For the periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, total front-end sales charge deductions were $475,885 and $686,742, respectively.

 

  (b) Cost of Insurance

A cost of insurance charge is assessed monthly against each contract. The amount of the charge varies widely and is based upon age, sex, rate class, and net amount at risk (death benefit less total contract value). This charge is assessed monthly against each contract by liquidating units.

 

  (c) Administrative Charges

The Company currently deducts $10 per month through the first year from the policy date, which is also the maximum guaranteed administrative charge. Thereafter, the Company will deduct $5 per month, and the maximum guaranteed administrative charge is $7.50 per month. These charges are assessed against each contract monthly by liquidating units.

(Continued)

 

36


NATIONWIDE VLI SEPARATE ACCOUNT-6 (NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued)

 

  (d) Surrender Charges

Policy surrenders result in a redemption of the contract value from the Account and payment of the surrender proceeds to the contract owner or designee. The surrender proceeds consist of the contract value, less any outstanding policy loans and less a surrender charge if applicable. The amount of the charge is based upon a specified percentage of the initial surrender charge which varies by age, sex and rate class. The surrender charge is 100% of the initial surrender charge in the first year, and declines in specified percentages each year. After the ninth year, the charge is 0%.

Surrender charges are assessed by liquidating units. The Company may wave the surrender charge for certain contracts in which sales expenses normally associated with the distribution of a contract are not incurred.

 

(3) Asset Charges

The Company deducts a monthly asset fee from each contract. This charge is $0.50 on the first $25,000 of cash value. During the first through fifteenth years from the policy date, the charge is $0.25 per $1,000 of cash value on amounts between $25,000 and $250,000 of cash value. Otherwise, the charge is $0.17 per $1,000 of cash value thereafter. This charge is assessed monthly against each contract by liquidating units.

 

(4) Death Benefits

Death benefit proceeds result in the redemption of the contract value from the Account and payment of those proceeds, less any outstanding policy loans (and policy charges), to the legal beneficiary. The contracts have a minimum required death benefit. The minimum required death benefit is the lowest benefit that will qualify the policy as life insurance under Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code.

There are three options a contract owner may choose when determining the death benefit:

 

  1) The death benefit will be the greater of the specified amount or minimum required death benefit;

 

  2) The death benefit will be the greater of the specified amount plus the cash value as of the date of death, or the minimum required death benefit;

 

  3) The death benefit will be the specified amount plus the accumulated premium account (which consists of all premium payments minus all partial surrenders to the date of death).

For any death benefit option, the calculation of the minimum required death benefit is shown on the Policy Data Page. Not all death benefit options are available in all states. In the event that the guaranteed death benefit exceeds the contract value on the date of death, the excess is paid by the Company’s general account.

 

(5) Policy Loans (Net of Repayments)

Contract provisions allow contract owners to borrow 90% of a policy’s variable cash surrender value plus 100% of a policy’s fixed cash surrender value less the applicable value of any surrender charges. Interest is charged on the outstanding loans and is due and payable in advance on the policy anniversary. In certain circumstances a contract owner may elect to use a Preferred Policy Loan. In this case, the loan value cannot exceed 5% of the policy’s cash surrender value as of the beginning of the year from the policy date. The contract is charged 3.9% interest on the outstanding loan.

At the time the loan is granted, the amount of the loan is transferred from the Account to the Company’s general account as collateral for the outstanding loan. Collateral amounts in the general account are credited with the stated rate of interest in effect at the time the loan is made, subject to a guaranteed minimum rate. Interest credited is paid by the Company’s general account to the Account. Loan repayments result in a transfer of collateral including interest credited back to the Account.

NATIONWIDE VLI SEPARATE ACCOUNT-6 (NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued)

 

(6) Related Party Transactions

The Company performs various services on behalf of the Mutual Fund Companies in which the Account invests and may receive fees for the services performed. These services include, among other things, shareholder communications, preparation, postage, fund transfer agency and various other record keeping and customer service functions. These fees are paid to an affiliate of the Company.

Contract owners may, with certain restrictions, transfer their assets between the Account and a fixed dollar contract (fixed account) maintained in the accounts of the Company. These transfers are the result of the contract owner executing fund exchanges. Fund exchanges from the Account to the fixed account are included in surrenders, and fund exchanges from the fixed account to the Account are included in purchase payments received from contact owners, as applicable, on the accompanying Statements of Change in Contract Owners’ Equity.

Policy loan transactions (note 5), executed at the direction of the contract owner, also result in transfers between the Account and the fixed account of the Company. The fixed account assets are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

For the periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, total transfers into the Account from the fixed account were $1,193,323 and $567,395, respectively, and total transfers from the Account to the fixed account were $1,563,081 and $5,463,757, respectively.

* This represents the annual contract expense rate of the variable account for the period indicated and includes only those expenses that are assessed through a reduction in the unit values. Excluded are expenses of the underlying mutual funds and charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units.
** This represents the dividends for the period indicated, 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 average net assets. The ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges or cost of insurance charges, that result in direct reductions to the contractholder accounts either through reductions in unit values or redemption of units. 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.
*** This represents the total return for the period indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying mutual fund, which reflects the reduction of unit value for expenses assessed. 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 Account. The total return is calculated for the period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the period.

The Board of Directors of Nationwide Life Insurance Company and

    Contract Owners of Nationwide VLI Separate Account-6:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets, liabilities and contract owners’ equity of Nationwide VLI Separate Account-6 (comprised of the sub-accounts listed in note 1(b) (collectively, “the Accounts”)) as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations and changes in contract owners’ equity, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Accounts’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights 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 owned as of December 31, 2007, by correspondence with the transfer agents of the underlying mutual funds. 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, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Accounts as of December 31, 2007, and the results of their operations, changes in contract owners’ equity, and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated herein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
