SUMMARY The sections in this summary correspond to sections in this prospectus which discuss the topics in more detail. THE ANNUITY CONTRACT. The fixed and variable annuity contract offered by Cova is a contract between you, the owner, and Cova, an insurance company. The contract provides a means for investing on a tax-deferred basis. The contract is intended for retirement savings or other long-term investment purposes and provides for a death benefit and guaranteed income options. This contract offers __ investment portfolios. These portfolios are designed to offer a better return than the fixed account. However, this is NOT guaranteed. You can also lose your money. The fixed account offers an interest rate that is guaranteed by the insurance company, Cova. While your money is in the fixed account, the interest your money will earn as well as your principal is guaranteed by Cova. You can transfer between accounts up to 12 times a year without charge or tax implications. The contract, like all deferred annuity contracts, has two phases: the accumulation phase and the income phase. During the accumulation phase, earnings accumulate on a tax-deferred basis and are taxed as income when you make a withdrawal. The income phase occurs when you begin receiving regular payments from your contract. The amount of money you are able to accumulate in your account during the accumulation phase will determine, in part, the amount of income payments during the income phase. ANNUITY PAYMENTS (THE INCOME PHASE). If you want to receive regular income from your annuity, you can choose an annuity option. Once you begin receiving regular payments, you cannot change your payment plan. During the income phase, you have the same investment choices you had during the accumulation phase. You can choose to have payments come from the fixed account, the investment portfolios or both. If you choose to have any part of your payments come from the investment portfolios, the dollar amount of your payments may go up or down. HOW TO PURCHASE THE CONTRACT. You can buy this contract with $5,000 or more under most circumstances. You can add $500 or more any time you like during the accumulation phase. Your registered representative can help you fill out the proper forms. INVESTMENT OPTIONS. You can put your money in the following investment portfolios which are described in the prospectuses for the funds. Currently, if you are not participating in an asset allocation program, you can only invest in 15 investment portfolios at any one time. The investment objectives and policies of certain of the investment portfolios are similar to the investment objectives and policies of other mutual funds that certain of the investment advisers manage. Although the objectives and policies may be similar, the investment results of the investment portfolios may be higher or lower than the results of such other mutual funds. The investment advisers cannot guarantee, and make no representation, that the investment results of similar funds will be comparable even though the funds have the same investment advisers.

Depending upon market conditions and the performance of the portfolio(s) you select, you can make or lose money in any of these portfolios. EXPENSES. The contract has insurance features and investment features, and there are costs related to each. * Each year Cova deducts a $30 contract maintenance charge from your contract. During the accumulation phase, Cova currently waives this charge if the value of your contract is at least $50,000. * Cova also deducts for its insurance charges which total 1.40% of the average daily value of your contract allocated to the investment portfolios. * If you take your money out, Cova may assess a withdrawal charge which is equal to 5% of the purchase payment you withdraw. After Cova has had a purchase payment for 5 years, there is no charge by Cova for a withdrawal of that purchase payment. * When you begin receiving regular income payments from your annuity, Cova will assess a state premium tax charge which ranges from 0%-4%, depending upon the state. * The first 12 transfers in a year are free. After that, a transfer fee of $25 or 2% of the amount transferred (whichever is less) is assessed. * There are also investment charges which range from .205% to 1.66% of the average daily value of the investment portfolio depending upon the investment portfolio. TAXES. Your earnings are not taxed until you take them out. If you take money out during the accumulation phase, earnings come out first and are taxed as income. If you are younger than 59 1/2 when you take money out, you may be charged a 10% federal tax penalty on the earnings. Payments during the income phase are considered partly a return of your original investment. That part of each payment is not taxable as income. ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY. You can take money out at any time during the accumulation phase. After the first year, you can take up to 10% of your total purchase payments each year without charge from Cova. Withdrawals of purchase payments in excess of that may be charged a withdrawal charge, depending on how long your money has been in the contract. However, Cova will never assess a withdrawal charge on earnings you withdraw. Earnings are defined as the value in your contract minus the remaining purchase payments in your contract. Of course, you may also have to pay income tax and a tax penalty on any money you take out. DEATH BENEFIT. If you die before moving to the income phase, the person you have chosen as your beneficiary will receive a death benefit. OTHER INFORMATION. Free Look. If you cancel the contract within 10 days after receiving it (or whatever period is required in your state), we will send your money back without assessing a withdrawal charge. You will receive whatever your contract is worth on the day we receive your request. This may be more or less than your original payment. If we're required by law to return your original payment, we reserve the right to put your money in the Money Market Fund during the free-look period. No Probate. In most cases, when you die, the person you choose as your beneficiary will receive the death benefit without going through probate. Who should purchase the Contract? This contract is designed for people seeking long-term tax-deferred accumulation of assets, generally for retirement or other long-term purposes. The tax-deferred feature is most attractive to people in high federal and state income tax brackets. You should not buy this contract if you are looking for a short-term investment or if you cannot take the risk of getting back less money than you put in. Additional Features. This contract has additional features you might be interested in. These include: You can arrange to have money automatically sent to you each month while your contract is still in the accumulation phase. Of course, you'll have to pay taxes on money you receive. We call this feature the Systematic Withdrawal Program. You can arrange to have a regular amount of money automatically invested in investment portfolios each month, theoretically giving you a lower average cost per unit over time than a single one time purchase. We call this feature Dollar Cost Averaging. You can arrange to automatically readjust the money between investment portfolios periodically to keep the blend you select. We call this feature Automatic Rebalancing. Under certain circumstances, Cova will give you your money without a withdrawal charge if you need it while you're in a nursing home. We call this feature the Nursing Home Waiver. These features are not available in all states and may not be suitable for your particular situation. INQUIRIES.

(a) The adviser to the Fund discontinued the expense reimbursement with respect to the Premier Growth Portfolio effective May 1, 1998. (b) The expenses shown with respect to the Real Estate Investment Portfolio are net of voluntary reimbursements. Expenses have been capped at .95% annually and the adviser to the Fund intends to continue such reimbursements for the foreseeable future. The estimated expenses for the Real Estate Investment Portfolio, before reimbursement, are: .90% management fees and 1.41% for other expenses. (c) Since May 1, 1996, Cova has been reimbursing the investment portfolios of Cova Series Trust (except the Riggs Stock, Riggs Small Company Stock and Riggs U.S. Government Securities Portfolios which have not yet commenced investment operations) for all operating expenses (exclusive of the management fees) in excess of approximately .10%. Beginning May 1, 1999, Cova will discontinue this reimbursement arrangement for the Select Equity, Small Cap Stock and International Equity Portfolios. Therefore, the amounts shown above under "Other Expenses" have been restated to reflect the actual expenses for these Portfolios for the year ended December 31, 1998. Also beginning May 1, 1999, Cova will reimburse the Mid-Cap Value, Large Cap Research and Developing Growth Portfolios for all operating expenses (exclusive of the management fees) in excess of approximately .30%, instead of .10%. This change is reflected above under "Other Expenses" for these three Portfolios. Absent the expense reimbursement, the percentages shown for total annual portfolio expenses for the year ended December 31, 1998 would have been .86% for the Quality Bond Portfolio, .94% for the Large Cap Stock Portfolio, .93% for the Bond Debenture Portfolio, 1.68% for the Mid-Cap Value Portfolio, 1.95% for the Large Cap Research Portfolio, 1.70% for the Developing Growth Portfolio, 3.08% for the Balanced Portfolio, 4.19% for the Small Cap Equity Portfolio, 2.69% for the Equity-Income Portfolio and 2.00% for the Growth & Income Equity Portfolio. (d) Estimated. The Portfolio commenced investment operations on January 8, 1999. (e) Estimated. The Riggs Stock and Riggs U.S. Government Securities Portfolios will commence investment operations on June 1, 1999. Riggs Bank N.A. has agreed to voluntarily reimburse the Riggs Stock and Riggs U.S. Government Securities Portfolios for all operating expenses (exclusive of the management fees) in excess of approximately .10%. Absent the expense reimbursement, the total estimated expenses, on an annualized basis, for these Portfolios are 3.80% for the Riggs Stock Portfolio and 3.50% for the Riggs U.S. Government Securities Portfolio. (f) The investment advisers to the Goldman Sachs Growth and Income, International Equity and Global Income Funds have voluntarily agreed to reduce or limit certain "Other Expenses" of such Funds (excluding management fees, taxes, interest and brokerage fees and litigation, indemnification and other extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed 0.15%, 0.25% and 0.15% per annum of such Funds' average daily net assets, respectively. The expenses shown include this reimbursement. If not included, the "Other Expenses" and "Total Annual Portfolio Expenses" for the Goldman Sachs Growth and Income, International Equity and Global Income Funds would be 1.94% and 2.69%, 1.97% and 2.97% and 2.40% and 3.30%, respectively. The reductions or limitations may be discontinued or modified by the investment advisers in their discretion at any time. (g) Pursuant to its agreement with Kemper Variable Series, the investment manager and the accounting agent have agreed, for the one year period commencing on the date of this prospectus, to limit their respective fees and to reimburse other operating expenses, in a manner communicated to the Board of the Fund, to the extent necessary to limit total operating expenses of the Kemper Small Cap Value Portfolio to .84%. The amounts set forth in the table above reflect actual expenses for the past fiscal year, which were lower than these expense limits. (h) Pursuant to its agreement with Kemper Variable Series, the investment manager and the accounting agent have agreed, for the one year period commencing on the date of this prospectus, to limit their respective fees and to reimburse other operating expenses, in a manner communicated to the Board of the Fund, to the extent necessary to limit total operating expenses of the Kemper-Dreman High Return Equity of Kemper Variable Series to the levels set forth in the table above. Without taking into effect these expense caps, for the Kemper-Dreman High Return Equity: management fees are estimated to be .75%; Other Expenses are estimated to be .45% and total operating expenses are estimated to be 1.20%. (i) Each series has an expense offset arrangement which reduces the series' custodian fee based upon the amount of cash maintained by the series with its custodian and dividend disbursing agent. Each series may enter into other such arrangements and directed brokerage arrangements, which would also have the effect of reducing the series' expenses. Expenses do not take into account these expense reductions, and are therefore higher than the actual expenses of the series. (j) MFS has agreed to bear expenses for these series, subject to reimbursement by these series, such that each such series' "Other Expenses" shall not exceed the following percentages of the average daily net assets of the series during the current fiscal year: 0.40% for the Bond Series and .25% for the Global Governments Series. The payments made by MFS on behalf of each series under this arrangement are subject to reimbursement by the series to MFS, which will be accomplished by the payment of an expense reimbursement fee by the series to MFS computed and paid monthly at a percentage of the series' average daily net assets for its then current fiscal year, with a limitation that immediately after such payment, the series' "Other Expenses" will not exceed the percentage set forth above for that series. The obligation of MFS to bear a series' "Other Expenses" pursuant to this arrangement, and the series' obligation to pay the reimbursement fee to MFS, terminates on the earlier of the date on which payments made by the series equal the prior payment of such reimbursable expenses by MFS or December 31, 2004. MFS may, in its discretion, terminate this arrangement at an earlier date provided that the arrangement will continue for each series until at least May 1, 2000, unless terminated with the consent of the board of trustees which oversees the series. (k) The Management Fees and Total Annual Portfolio Expenses reflect an expense limitation. In the absence of the expense limitation, the Management Fees and Total Annual Portfolio Expenses would have been 1.20% and 1.62% respectively. (l) Figures reflect expenses from the Fund's inception on May 1, 1998 and are annualized. The investment manager agreed in advance to limit management fees and make certain payments to reduce Fund expenses as necessary so that Total Annual Portfolio Expenses did not exceed 1.00% of the Fund's Class 1 net assets in 1998. The investment manager has agreed to continue this arrangement through 1999. Management Fees, Other Expenses and Total Annual Portfolio Expenses in 1998 before any waivers were as follows: 0.60%, 4.08% and 4.68% for the Franklin Growth Investments Fund; 0.75%, 1.00% and 1.75% for the Franklin Small Cap Investments Fund; and 0.60%, 2.27% and 2.87% for the Mutual Shares Investments Fund. (m) A portion of the brokerage commissions that certain funds pay was used to reduce fund expenses. In addition, certain funds, or the investment adviser on behalf of certain funds, have entered into arrangements with their custodian whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce custodian expenses. Including these reductions, the Total Annual Portfolio Expenses presented in the table would have been .70% for the VIP III Growth Opportunities Portfolio; .66% for the VIP Growth Portfolio; .60% for the VIP III Growth & Income Portfolio; .57% for the VIP Equity-Income Portfolio; and .66% for the VIP II Contrafund Portfolio. EXAMPLES: The examples should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses. Actual expenses may be greater or less than those shown. For purposes of the examples, the assumed average contract size is $30,000. You would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment, assuming a 5% annual return on assets: (a) if you surrender the contract at the end of each time period; (b) if you do not surrender the contract or if you apply the contract value to an annuity option.

EXPLANATION OF FEE TABLE 1. The withdrawal charge is 5% of the purchase payments you withdraw. After Cova has had a purchase payment for 5 years, there is no charge by Cova for a withdrawal of that purchase payment. You may also have to pay income tax and a tax penalty on any money you take out. After the first year, you can take up to 10% of your total purchase payments each year without a charge from Cova. 2. Cova will not charge you the transfer fee even if there are more than 12 transfers in a year if the transfer is under the Dollar Cost Averaging, Automatic Rebalancing or Approved Asset Allocation Programs. 3. During the accumulation phase, Cova will not charge the contract maintenance charge if the value of your contract is $50,000 or more. If you make a complete withdrawal, Cova will charge the contract maintenance charge. 4. Premium taxes are not reflected. Premium taxes may apply depending on the state where you live. There is an accumulation unit value history (Condensed Financial Information) contained in Appendix A. THE ANNUITY CONTRACT This Prospectus describes the Fixed and Variable Annuity Contract offered by Cova. An annuity is a contract between you, the owner, and an insurance company (in this case Cova), where the insurance company promises to pay an income to you, in the form of annuity payments. Annuity payments must begin on a designated date that is at least 30 days in the future. Until you decide to begin receiving annuity payments, your annuity is in the accumulation phase. Once you begin receiving annuity payments, your contract switches to the income phase. The Contract benefits from tax deferral. Tax deferral means that you are not taxed on earnings or appreciation on the assets in your contract until you take money out of your contract. The contract is called a variable annuity because you can choose among the investment portfolios and, depending upon market conditions, you can make or lose money in any of these portfolios. If you select the variable annuity portion of the contract, the amount of money you are able to accumulate in your contract during the accumulation phase depends upon the investment performance of the investment portfolio(s) you select. The amount of the annuity payments you receive during the income phase from the variable annuity portion of the contract also depends, in part, on the investment performance of the investment portfolios you select for the income phase. The contract also contains a fixed account. The fixed account offers an interest rate that is guaranteed by Cova. Cova guarantees that the interest rate credited to the fixed account will not be less than 3% per year with respect to contracts issued on or after May 1, 1996. If you select the fixed account, your money will be placed with the other general assets of Cova. If you select the fixed account, the amount of money you are able to accumulate in your contract during the accumulation phase depends upon the total interest credited to your contract. The amount of the annuity payments you receive during the income phase from the fixed account portion of the contract will remain level for the entire income phase. As owner of the contract, you exercise all interest and rights under the contract. You can change the owner at any time by notifying Cova in writing. You and your spouse can be named joint owners. We have described more information on this under "Other Information." ANNUITY PAYMENTS (THE INCOME PHASE) Annuity Date Under the contract you can receive regular income payments. You can choose the month and year in which those payments begin. We call that date the annuity date. Your annuity date must be the first day of a calendar month. We ask you to choose your annuity date when you purchase the contract. You can change it at any time before the annuity date with 30 days notice to us. Your annuity date cannot be any earlier than one month after you buy the contract. Annuity Payments You will receive annuity payments during the income phase. In general, annuity payments must begin by the annuitant's 85th birthday or 10 years from the date the contract was issued, whichever is later (this requirement may differ slightly for special programs). The annuitant is the person whose life we look to when we make annuity payments. During the income phase, you have the same investment choices you had just before the start of the income phase. At the annuity date, you can choose whether payments will come from the: * fixed account, * the investment portfolio(s) or * a combination of both. If you don't tell us otherwise, your annuity payments will be based on the investment allocations that were in place on the annuity date. If you choose to have any portion of your annuity payments come from the investment portfolio(s), the dollar amount of your payment will depend upon 3 things: 1) the value of your contract in the investment portfolio(s) on the annuity date, 2) the 3% assumed investment rate used in the annuity table for the contract, and 3) the performance of the investment portfolios you selected. If the actual performance exceeds the 3% assumed investment rate, your annuity payments will increase. Similarly, if the actual investment rate is less than 3%, your annuity payments will decrease. Annuity payments are made monthly unless you have less than $5,000 to apply toward a payment, except in New Jersey ($2,000 if the contract is issued in Massachusetts or Texas). In that case, Cova may pay your annuity payment in a single lump sum. Likewise, if your annuity payments would be less than $100 a month ($20 in Texas), Cova has the right to change the frequency of payments so that your annuity payments are at least $100 ($20 in Texas). Annuity Options You can choose among income plans. We call those annuity options. We ask you to choose an annuity option when you purchase the contract. You can change it at any time before the annuity date with 30 days notice to us. If you do not choose an annuity option at the time you purchase the contract, we will assume that you selected Option 2 which provides a life annuity with 10 years of guaranteed payments. You can choose one of the following annuity options or any other annuity option acceptable to Cova. After annuity payments begin, you cannot change the annuity option. OPTION 1. LIFE ANNUITY. Under this option, we will make an annuity payment each month so long as the annuitant is alive. After the annuitant dies, we stop making annuity payments. OPTION 2. LIFE ANNUITY WITH 5, 10 OR 20 YEARS GUARANTEED. Under this option, we will make an annuity payment each month so long as the annuitant is alive. However, if, when the annuitant dies, we have made annuity payments for less than the selected guaranteed period, we will then continue to make annuity payments for the rest of the guaranteed period to the beneficiary. If the beneficiary does not want to receive annuity payments, he or she can ask us for a single lump sum. OPTION 3. JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY. Under this option, we will make annuity payments each month so long as the annuitant and a second person are both alive. When either of these people dies, we will continue to make annuity payments, so long as the survivor continues to live. The amount of the annuity payments we will make to the survivor can be equal to 100%, 66 2/3% or 50% of the amount that we would have paid if both were alive. PURCHASE PURCHASE PAYMENTS A purchase payment is the money you give us to invest in the contract. The minimum we will accept is $5,000 when the contract is purchased as a non-qualified contract. If you are purchasing the contract as part of an IRA (Individual Retirement Annuity), 401(k) or other qualified plan, the minimum we will accept is $2,000. The maximum purchase payment we accept is $1 million without our prior approval. You can make additional purchase payments of $500 or more to any type of contract. Cova reserves the right to reject any purchase payment (except in New Jersey). ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS When you purchase a contract, we will allocate your purchase payment to the fixed account and/or one or more of the investment portfolios you have selected. If you make additional purchase payments, we will allocate them in the same way as your first purchase payment unless you tell us otherwise. There is a $500 minimum allocation requirement for the fixed account and for each investment portfolio. Once we receive your purchase payment and the necessary information, we will issue your contract and allocate your first purchase payment within two business days. If you do not give us all of the information we need, we will contact you to get it. If for some reason we are unable to complete this process within five business days, we will either send back your money or get your permission to keep it until we get all of the necessary information. If you add more money to your contract by making additional purchase payments, we will credit these amounts to your contract within one business day. Our business day closes when the New York Stock Exchange closes, usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Free Look If you change your mind about owning this contract, you can cancel it within 10 days after receiving it (or the period required in your state). When you cancel the contract within this time period, Cova will not assess a withdrawal charge. You will receive back whatever your contract is worth on the day we receive your request. In certain states, or if you have purchased the contract as an IRA, we may be required to give you back your purchase payment if you decide to cancel your contract within 10 days after receiving it (or whatever period is required in your state). If that is the case, we reserve the right to put your purchase payment in the Money Market Fund for 15 days before we allocate your first purchase payment to the investment portfolio(s) you have selected. (In some states, the period may be longer.) In such case, we will refund the greater of purchase payments (less withdrawals) or contract value. Currently, Cova directly allocates your purchase payment to the investment portfolios and/or fixed account you select. ACCUMULATION UNITS The value of the variable annuity portion of your contract will go up or down depending upon the investment performance of the investment portfolio(s) you choose. In order to keep track of the value of your contract, we use a unit of measure we call an accumulation unit. (An accumulation unit works like a share of a mutual fund.) During the income phase of the contract we call the unit an annuity unit. Every day we determine the value of an accumulation unit for each of the investment portfolios. We do this by: 1. determining the total amount of money invested in the particular investment portfolio; 2. subtracting from that amount any insurance charges and any other charges such as taxes we have deducted; and 3. dividing this amount by the number of outstanding accumulation units. The value of an accumulation unit may go up or down from day to day. When you make a purchase payment, we credit your contract with accumulation units. The number of accumulation units credited is determined by dividing the amount of the purchase payment allocated to an investment portfolio by the value of the accumulation unit for that investment portfolio. We calculate the value of an accumulation unit for each investment portfolio after the New York Stock Exchange closes each day and then credit your contract. EXAMPLE: On Monday we receive an additional purchase payment of $5,000 from you. You have told us you want this to go to the Quality Bond Portfolio. When the New York Stock Exchange closes on that Monday, we determine that the value of an accumulation unit for the Quality Bond Portfolio is $13.90. We then divide $5,000 by $13.90 and credit your contract on Monday night with 359.71 accumulation units for the Quality Bond Portfolio.

Cova may enter into certain arrangements under which it is reimbursed by the investment portfolios' advisers, distributors and/or affiliates for the administrative services which it provides to the portfolios. TRANSFERS You can transfer money among the fixed account and the investment portfolios. Cova has reserved the right during the year to terminate or modify the transfer provisions described below, subject to applicable state laws and regulations. TELEPHONE TRANSFERS. You and/or your registered representative on your behalf, can make transfers by telephone. Telephone transfers will be automatically permitted unless you tell us otherwise. If you own the contract with a joint owner, unless Cova is instructed otherwise, Cova will accept instructions from either you or the other owner. Cova will use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions given us by telephone are genuine. If Cova fails to use such procedures, we may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. Cova tape records all telephone instructions. TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE. You can make 12 transfers every year during the accumulation phase without charge. We measure a year from the anniversary of the day we issued your contract. You can make a transfer to or from the fixed account and to or from any investment portfolio. If you make more than 12 transfers in a year, there is a transfer fee deducted. The following apply to any transfer during the accumulation phase: 1. The minimum amount which you can transfer is $500 or your entire value in the investment portfolio or fixed account. 2. Your request for transfer must clearly state which investment portfolio(s) or the fixed account are involved in the transfer. 3. Your request for transfer must clearly state how much the transfer is for. 4. You cannot make any transfers within 7 calendar days of the annuity date. TRANSFERS DURING THE INCOME PHASE. You can only make transfers between the investment portfolios once each year. We measure a year from the anniversary of the day we issued your contract. You cannot transfer from the fixed account to an investment portfolio, but you can transfer from one or more investment portfolios to the fixed account at any time. DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM The Dollar Cost Averaging Program allows you to systematically transfer a set amount each month from the Money Market Fund or the fixed account to any of the other investment portfolio(s). By allocating amounts on a regular schedule as opposed to allocating the total amount at one particular time, you may be less susceptible to the impact of market fluctuations. The Dollar Cost Averaging Program is available only during the accumulation phase. The minimum amount which can be transferred each month is $500. You must have at least $6,000 in the Money Market Fund or the fixed account, (or the amount required to complete your program, if less) in order to participate in the Dollar Cost Averaging Program. Currently, Cova does not charge for participating in the Dollar Cost Averaging Program. Cova reserves the right to modify, terminate or suspend the Dollar Cost Averaging Program. If you participate in the Dollar Cost Averaging Program, the transfers made under the program are not taken into account in determining any transfer fee. Cova may, from time to time, offer other dollar cost averaging programs which may have terms different from those described above. AUTOMATIC REBALANCING PROGRAM Once your money has been allocated to the investment portfolios, the performance of each portfolio may cause your allocation to shift. You can direct us to automatically rebalance your contract to return to your original percentage allocations by selecting our Automatic Rebalancing Program. You can tell us whether to rebalance quarterly, semi-annually or annually. We will measure these periods from the anniversary of the date we issued your contract. The transfer date will be the 1st business day after the end of the period you selected. The Automatic Rebalancing Program is available only during the accumulation phase. Currently, Cova does not charge for participating in the Automatic Rebalancing Program. If you participate in the Automatic Rebalancing Program, the transfers made under the program are not taken into account in determining any transfer fee. EXAMPLE: Assume that you want your initial purchase payment split between 2 investment portfolios. You want 40% to be in the Quality Bond Portfolio and 60% to be in the Select Equity Portfolio. Over the next 2 1/2 months the bond market does very well while the stock market performs poorly. At the end of the first quarter, the Quality Bond Portfolio now represents 50% of your holdings because of its increase in value. If you have chosen to have your holdings rebalanced quarterly, on the first day of the next quarter, Cova will sell some of your units in the Quality Bond Portfolio to bring its value back to 40% and use the money to buy more units in the Select Equity Portfolio to increase those holdings to 60%. APPROVED ASSET ALLOCATION PROGRAMS Cova recognizes the value to certain owners of having available, on a continuous basis, advice for the allocation of your money among the investment options available under the contracts. Certain providers of these types of services have agreed to provide such services to owners in accordance with Cova's administrative rules regarding such programs. Cova has made no independent investigation of these programs. Cova has only established that these programs are compatible with our administrative systems and rules. Approved asset allocation programs are only available during the accumulation phase. Currently, Cova does not charge for participating in an approved asset allocation program. Even though Cova permits the use of approved asset allocation programs, the contract was not designed for professional market timing organizations. Repeated patterns of frequent transfers are disruptive to the operations of the investment portfolios, and when Cova becomes aware of such disruptive practices, we may modify the transfer provisions of the contract. If you participate in an Approved Asset Allocation Program, the transfers made under the program are not taken into account in determining any transfer fee. VOTING RIGHTS Cova is the legal owner of the investment portfolio shares. However, Cova believes that when an investment portfolio solicits proxies in conjunction with a vote of shareholders, it is required to obtain from you and other affected owners instructions as to how to vote those shares. When we receive those instructions, we will vote all of the shares we own in proportion to those instructions. This will also include any shares that Cova owns on its own behalf. Should Cova determine that it is no longer required to comply with the above, we will vote the shares in our own right. SUBSTITUTION Cova may be required to substitute one of the investment portfolios you have selected with another portfolio. We would not do this without the prior approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We will give you notice of our intent to do this. EXPENSES There are charges and other expenses associated with the contracts that reduce the return on your investment in the contract. These charges and expenses are: INSURANCE CHARGES Each day, Cova makes a deduction for its insurance charges. Cova does this as part of its calculation of the value of the accumulation units and the annuity units. The insurance charge has two parts: * the mortality and expense risk premium, and * the administrative expense charge. MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK PREMIUM. This charge is equivalent, on an annual basis, to 1.25% of the daily value of the contracts invested in an investment portfolio, after fund expenses have been deducted. This charge is for the insurance benefits e.g., guarantee of annuity rates, the death benefits, for certain expenses of the contract, and for assuming the risk (expense risk) that the current charges will be insufficient in the future to cover the cost of administering the contract. If the charges under the contract are not sufficient, then Cova will bear the loss. Cova does, however, expect to profit from this charge. The mortality and expense risk premium cannot be increased. Cova may use any profits it makes from this charge to pay for the costs of distributing the contract. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE. This charge is equal, on an annual basis, to .15% of the daily value of the contracts invested in an investment portfolio, after fund expenses have been deducted. This charge, together with the contract maintenance charge (see below), is for the expenses associated with the administration of the contract. Some of these expenses are: preparation of the contract, confirmations, annual reports and statements, maintenance of contract records, personnel costs, legal and accounting fees, filing fees, and computer and systems costs. Because this charge is taken out of every unit value, you may pay more in administrative costs than those that are associated solely with your contract. Cova does not intend to profit from this charge. However, if this charge and the contract maintenance charge are not enough to cover the costs of the contracts in the future, Cova will bear the loss. CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE During the accumulation phase, every year on the anniversary of the date when your contract was issued, Cova deducts $30 from your contract as a contract maintenance charge. (In South Carolina, the charge is the lesser of $30 or 2% of the value of the contract.) This charge is for administrative expenses (see above). This charge cannot be increased. Cova will not deduct this charge during the accumulation phase if when the deduction is to be made, the value of your contract is $50,000 or more. Cova may some time in the future discontinue this practice and deduct the charge. If you make a complete withdrawal from your contract, the contract maintenance charge will also be deducted. A pro rata portion of the charge will be deducted if the annuity date is other than an anniversary. After the annuity date, the charge will be collected monthly out of the annuity payment. WITHDRAWAL CHARGE During the accumulation phase, you can make withdrawals from your contract. Cova keeps track of each purchase payment. Once a year after the first year (and during the first year for purposes of payment of charitable remainder trust administration fees), you can withdraw up to 10% of your total purchase payments and no withdrawal charge will be assessed on the 10%, if on the day you make your withdrawal (in New Jersey, on the day Cova processes the withdrawal) the value of your contract is $5,000 or more. Withdrawals after the first year for purposes of payment of charitable remainder trust administration fees are included in the 10% free withdrawal amount. Otherwise, the charge is 5% of each purchase payment you take out unless the purchase payment was made more than 5 years ago. After Cova has had a purchase payment for 5 years, there is no charge when you withdraw that purchase payment. Cova does not assess a withdrawal charge on earnings withdrawn from the contract. Earnings are defined as the value in your contract minus the remaining purchase payments in your contract. The withdrawal order for calculating the withdrawal charge is shown below. * 10% of purchase payments free. * Remaining purchase payments that are over 5 years old and not subject to a withdrawal charge. * Earnings in the contract free. * Remaining purchase payments that are less than 5 years old and are subject to a withdrawal charge. For purposes of calculating the withdrawal charge, slightly different rules may apply to Section 1035 exchanges. When the withdrawal is for only part of the value of your contract, the withdrawal charge is deducted from the remaining value in your contract. Cova does not assess the withdrawal charge on any payments paid out as annuity payments or as death benefits. NOTE: For tax purposes, earnings are considered to come out first. REDUCTION OR ELIMINATION OF THE WITHDRAWAL CHARGE General: Cova will reduce or eliminate the amount of the withdrawal charge when the contract is sold under circumstances which reduce its sales expense. Some examples are: if there is a large group of individuals that will be purchasing the contract or a prospective purchaser already had a relationship with Cova. Cova will not deduct a withdrawal charge under a contract issued to an officer, director or employee of Cova or any of its affiliates. Nursing Home Waiver: After you have owned the contract for one year, if you, or your joint owner, becomes confined to a nursing home or hospital for at least 90 consecutive days under a doctor's care and you need part or all of the money from your contract, Cova will not impose a withdrawal charge. You or your joint owner cannot have been so confined when you purchased your contract (confinement must begin after the first contract anniversary) if you want to take advantage of this provision. This is called the Nursing Home Waiver. This provision is not available in all states. PREMIUM TAXES Some states and other governmental entities (e.g., municipalities) charge premium taxes or similar taxes. Cova is responsible for the payment of these taxes and will make a deduction from the value of the contract for them. Some of these taxes are due when the contract is issued, others are due when annuity payments begin. It is Cova's current practice to not charge anyone for these taxes until annuity payments begin. Cova may, some time in the future, discontinue this practice and assess the charge when the tax is due. Premium taxes generally range from 0% to 4%, depending on the state. TRANSFER FEE You can make 12 free transfers every year. We measure a year from the day we issue your contract. If you make more than 12 transfers a year, we will deduct a transfer fee of $25 or 2% of the amount that is transferred, whichever is less. If the transfer is part of the Dollar Cost Averaging Program, the Automatic Rebalancing Program or an Approved Asset Allocation Program, it will not count in determining the transfer fee. INCOME TAXES Cova will deduct from the contract for any income taxes which it incurs because of the contract. At the present time, we are not making any such deductions. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO EXPENSES There are deductions from and expenses paid out of the assets of the various investment portfolios, which are described in the attached fund prospectuses. TAXES NOTE: Cova has prepared the following information on taxes as a general discussion of the subject. It is not intended as tax advice to any individual. You should consult your own tax adviser about your own circumstances. Cova has included in the Statement of Additional Information an additional discussion regarding taxes. ANNUITY CONTRACTS IN GENERAL Annuity contracts are a means of setting aside money for future needs - usually retirement. Congress recognized how important saving for retirement was and provided special rules in the Internal Revenue Code (Code) for annuities. Simply stated these rules provide that you will not be taxed on the earnings on the money held in your annuity contract until you take the money out. This is referred to as tax deferral. There are different rules as to how you will be taxed depending on how you take the money out and the type of contract - qualified or non-qualified (see following sections). You, as the owner, will not be taxed on increases in the value of your contract until a distribution occurs - either as a withdrawal or as annuity payments. When you make a withdrawal you are taxed on the amount of the withdrawal that is earnings. For annuity payments, different rules apply. A portion of each annuity payment is treated as a partial return of your purchase payments and will not be taxed. The remaining portion of the annuity payment will be treated as ordinary income. How the annuity payment is divided between taxable and non-taxable portions depends upon the period over which the annuity payments are expected to be made. Annuity payments received after you have received all of your purchase payments are fully includible in income. When a non-qualified contract is owned by a non-natural person (e.g.,corporation or certain other entities other than a trust holding the contract as an agent for a natural person), the contract will generally not be treated as an annuity for tax purposes. QUALIFIED AND NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS If you purchase the contract as an individual and not under any pension plan, specially sponsored program or an individual retirement annuity, your contract is referred to as a non-qualified contract. If you purchase the contract under a pension plan, specially sponsored program, or an individual retirement annuity, your contract is referred to as a qualified contract. Examples of qualified plans are: Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs), Tax-Sheltered Annuities (sometimes referred to as 403(b) contracts), and pension and profit-sharing plans, which include 401(k) plans and H.R. 10 plans. WITHDRAWALS - NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS If you make a withdrawal from your contract, the Code treats such a withdrawal as first coming from earnings and then from your purchase payments. Such withdrawn earnings are includible in income. The Code also provides that any amount received under an annuity contract which is included in income may be subject to a penalty. The amount of the penalty is equal to 10% of the amount that is includible in income. Some withdrawals will be exempt from the penalty. They include any amounts: (1) paid on or after the taxpayer reaches age 59 1/2; (2) paid after you die; (3) paid if the taxpayer becomes totally disabled (as that term is defined in the Code); (4) paid in a series of substantially equal payments made annually (or more frequently) for life or a period not exceeding life expectancy; (5) paid under an immediate annuity; or (6) which come from purchase payments made prior to August 14, 1982. WITHDRAWALS - QUALIFIED CONTRACTS The above information describing the taxation of non-qualified contracts does not apply to qualified contracts. There are special rules that govern with respect to qualified contracts. We have provided a more complete discussion in the Statement of Additional Information. WITHDRAWALS - TAX-SHELTERED ANNUITIES The Code limits the withdrawal of amounts attributable to purchase payments made under a salary reduction agreement by owners from Tax-Sheltered Annuities. Withdrawals can only be made when an owner: (1) reaches age 59 1/2; (2) leaves his/her job; (3) dies; (4) becomes disabled (as that term is defined in the Code); or (5) in the case of hardship. However, in the case of hardship, the owner can only withdraw the purchase payments and not any earnings. DIVERSIFICATION The Code provides that the underlying investments for a variable annuity must satisfy certain diversification requirements in order to be treated as an annuity contract. Cova believes that the investment portfolios are being managed so as to comply with the requirements. Neither the Code nor the Internal Revenue Service Regulations issued to date provide guidance as to the circumstances under which you, because of the degree of control you exercise over the underlying investments, and not Cova would be considered the owner of the shares of the investment portfolios. If you are considered the owner of the shares, it will result in the loss of the favorable tax treatment for the contract. It is unknown to what extent owners are permitted to select investment portfolios, to make transfers among the investment portfolios or the number and type of investment portfolios owners may select from without being considered the owner of the shares. If any guidance is provided which is considered a new position, then the guidance would generally be applied prospectively. However, if such guidance is considered not to be a new position, it may be applied retroactively. This would mean that you, as the owner of the contract, could be treated as the owner of the shares of the investment portfolios. Due to the uncertainty in this area, Cova reserves the right to modify the contract in an attempt to maintain favorable tax treatment. ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY You can have access to the money in your contract: (1) by making a withdrawal (either a partial or a complete withdrawal); (2) by electing to receive annuity payments; or (3) when a death benefit is paid to your beneficiary. Under most circumstances, withdrawals can only be made during the accumulation phase. When you make a complete withdrawal you will receive the withdrawal value of the contract. The withdrawal value of the contract is the value of the contract at the end of the business day when Cova receives a written request for a withdrawal: * less any applicable withdrawal charge, * less any premium tax, and * less any contract maintenance charge. Unless you instruct Cova otherwise, any partial withdrawal will be made pro-rata from all the investment portfolios and the fixed account. Under most circumstances, the amount of any partial withdrawal must be for at least $500. Cova requires that after a withdrawal is made you keep at least $500 in any selected investment portfolio. If the remaining withdrawal value would be less than $500 ($1,000 in New Jersey) after you make a partial withdrawal, the partial withdrawal amount will be the remaining withdrawal value. When you make a withdrawal, the amount of the death benefit may be reduced. See "Death Benefits." There are limits to the amount you can withdraw from a qualified plan referred to as a 403(b) plan. For a more complete explanation see "Taxes" and the discussion in the Statement of Additional Information. INCOME TAXES, TAX PENALTIES AND CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS MAY APPLY TO ANY WITHDRAWAL YOU MAKE. SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM You may use the Systematic Withdrawal Program. This program provides an automatic monthly payment to you of up to 10% of your total purchase payments each year. No withdrawal charge will be made for these payments. Cova does not have any charge for this program, but reserves the right to charge in the future. If you use this program, you may not also make a single 10% free withdrawal. For a discussion of the withdrawal charge and the 10% free withdrawal, see "Expenses." INCOME TAXES, TAX PENALTIES AND CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS MAY APPLY TO SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWALS. SUSPENSION OF PAYMENTS OR TRANSFERS Cova may be required to suspend or postpone payments for withdrawals or transfers for any period when: 1. the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend and holiday closings); 2. trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; 3. an emergency exists as a result of which disposal of shares of the investment portfolios is not reasonably practicable or Cova cannot reasonably value the shares of the investment portfolios; 4. during any other period when the Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, so permits for the protection of owners. Cova has reserved the right to defer payment for a withdrawal or transfer from the fixed account for the period permitted by law but not for more than six months. PERFORMANCE Cova periodically advertises performance of the various investment portfolios. Cova will calculate performance by determining the percentage change in the value of an accumulation unit by dividing the increase (decrease) for that unit by the value of the accumulation unit at the beginning of the period. This performance number reflects the deduction of the insurance charges. It does not reflect the deduction of any applicable contract maintenance charge and withdrawal charge. The deduction of any applicable contract maintenance charge and withdrawal charges would reduce the percentage increase or make greater any percentage decrease. Any advertisement will also include total return figures which reflect the deduction of the insurance charges, contract maintenance charge and withdrawal charges. For periods starting prior to the date the contracts were first offered, the performance will be based on the historical performance of the corresponding investment portfolios for the periods commencing from the date on which the particular investment portfolio was made available through the Separate Account. In addition, for certain investment portfolios performance may be shown for the period commencing from the inception date of the investment portfolio. These figures should not be interpreted to reflect actual historical performance of the Separate Account. Cova may, from time to time, include in its advertising and sales materials, tax deferred compounding charts and other hypothetical illustrations, which may include comparisons of currently taxable and tax deferred investment programs, based on selected tax brackets. Appendix B contains performance information that you may find informative. It is divided into various parts, depending upon the type of performance information shown. Future performance will vary and the results shown are not necessarily representative of future results. DEATH BENEFIT UPON YOUR DEATH If you die before annuity payments begin, Cova will pay a death benefit to your beneficiary (see below). If you have a joint owner, the death benefit will be paid when the first of you dies. Joint Owners must be spouses. The surviving joint owner will be treated as the beneficiary. Beginning May 1, 1999, at the time you buy the contract, you can select Death Benefit Option B or E. If you do not choose an option on the forms provided by Cova, Option E will be your death benefit. If, at the time you buy the contract, the endorsement for Death Benefit Option E is not approved in your state, you can select Death Benefit Option A or B. If you do not choose an option on the forms provided by Cova, Option A will be your death benefit. If you bought your contract before May 1, 1998, you were given the opportunity to choose Death Benefit Option B or C on your next contract anniversary after May 1, 1998 (or during a 60 day period after both options were approved in your state). If you did not make an election during such time period, your death benefit was automatically enhanced to Death Benefit Option B. If on May 1, 1998, you or your joint owner were 80 or older, you were unaffected by the changes in the death benefits and Option D continues to be your death benefit. From May 1, 1998 to April 30, 1999, at the time you bought the contract, you were given the opportunity to select Death Benefit Option A or B. If you did not choose an option on the forms provided by Cova, Option A is your death benefit. The death benefits are described below. If you have a Joint Owner, the death benefit is determined based on the age of the oldest Joint Owner and the death benefit is payable on the death of the first Joint Owner. DEATH BENEFIT OPTION A: Prior to you, or your joint owner, reaching age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest adjusted contract value (GACV) (as explained below). The GACV is evaluated at each contract anniversary prior to the date of your or your joint owner's death, and on each day a purchase payment or withdrawal is made. On the contract anniversary, if the current contract value is greater than the GACV, the GACV will be increased to the current value of your contract. If a purchase payment is made, the amount of the purchase payment will increase the GACV. If a withdrawal is made, the GACV will be reduced by the amount withdrawn (and any associated withdrawal charges) divided by the value of your contract immediately before the withdrawal multiplied by the GACV immediately prior to the withdrawal. The following example describes the effect of a withdrawal on the GACV: Example: Assumed facts for example: $10,000 current GACV $ 8,000 contract value $ 2,100 partial withdrawal ($ 2,000 withdrawal + $100 withdrawal charge) New GACV = $10,000 - [($2,100/$8,000) X $10,000] which results in the current GACV of $10,000 being reduced by $2,625 The new GACV is $7,375. After you, or your joint owner, reaches age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments made, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest adjusted contract value (GACV) (as explained below). The GACV is evaluated at each contract anniversary on or before your, or your joint owner's, 80th birthday, and on each day a purchase payment or withdrawal is made. On the contract anniversary on or before your, or your joint owner's, 80th birthday, if the current contract value is greater than the GACV, the GACV will be increased to the current value of your contract. If a purchase payment is made, the amount of the purchase payment will increase the GACV. If a withdrawal is made, the example above explains the effect of a withdrawal on the GACV. DEATH BENEFIT OPTION B: Prior to you, or your joint owner, reaching age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) accumulated at an annual rate of 4% until the date of death; or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest of the values of your contract resulting from taking the contract value on any five (5) year contract anniversary prior to your, or your joint owner's death; plus any payments you made subsequent to that contract anniversary, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) subsequent to that contract anniversary. After you, or your joint owner, reaches age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments made on or before your, or your joint owner's, 80th birthday, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) accumulated at an annual rate of 4% until you, or your joint owner, reach age 80, plus any subsequent purchase payments, less any subsequent withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest of the values of the contract resulting from taking the contract value on any prior five (5) year contract anniversary on or before your or your joint owner's 80th birthday, plus any purchase payments made after that contract anniversary, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) made after that contract anniversary. DEATH BENEFIT OPTION C: Prior to you, or your joint owner, reaching age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest adjusted contract value (GACV) (as explained below). The GACV is initially the death benefit determined as of the day Cova receives notice that you have elected this death benefit option. This figure is based on your existing death benefit as defined in your contract, Option D (not as defined in the endorsement for this option). The GACV is then evaluated at each subsequent contract anniversary prior to your or your Joint Owner's death and on each subsequent day a purchase payment or withdrawal is made. On the contract anniversary, if the current contract value is greater than the GACV, the GACV will be increased to the current value of your contract. If a purchase payment is made, the amount of the purchase payment will increase the GACV. If a withdrawal is made, the GACV will be reduced by the amount withdrawn (and any associated withdrawal charges) divided by the value of your contract immediately before the withdrawal multiplied by the GACV immediately prior to the withdrawal. The example above under Death Benefit Option A explains the effect of a withdrawal on the GACV under this death benefit option. After you, or your joint owner, reaches age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments made, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest adjusted contract value (GACV) (as explained below). The GACV is initially the death benefit determined as of the day Cova receives notice that you have elected this death benefit option. This figure is based on your existing death benefit as defined in your contract, Option D (not as defined in the endorsement for this option). The GACV is then evaluated at each subsequent contract anniversary on or before your, or your joint owner's, 80th birthday, and on each subsequent day a purchase payment or withdrawal is made. On the contract anniversary on or before your, or your joint owner's, 80th birthday, if the current contract value is greater than the GACV, the GACV will be increased to the current value of your contract. If a purchase payment is made, the amount of the purchase payment will increase the GACV. If a withdrawal is made, the GACV will be reduced by the amount withdrawn (and any associated withdrawal charges) divided by the value of your contract immediately before the withdrawal, multiplied by the GACV immediately prior to the withdrawal. The example above under Death Benefit Option A explains the effect of a withdrawal on the GACV under this death benefit option. DEATH BENEFIT OPTION D: Prior to you, or your joint owner, reaching age 80, the death benefit will be the greater of: 1. Total purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) accumulated at an annual rate of 4% from the date your contract was issued until the date of death; or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The value of your contract on the most recent five year anniversary before the date of death, plus any subsequent purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals). After you, or your joint owner, reaches age 80, the death benefit will be the greater of: 1. Total purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) accumulated at an annual rate of 4% from the date your contract was issued until you, or your joint owner, reaches age 80, plus any subsequent purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); or 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The values of your contract on the most recent five year anniversary on or before your or your joint owner reaches 80, plus any purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals). DEATH BENEFIT OPTION E: Prior to you, or your joint owner, reaching age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest contract value on any contract anniversary prior to your, or your joint owner's death; plus any purchase payments you made subsequent to that contract anniversary, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) subsequent to that contract anniversary. After you, or your joint owner, reaches age 80, the death benefit will be the greatest of: 1. Total purchase payments, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals); 2. The value of your contract at the time the death benefit is to be paid; or 3. The greatest contract value on any prior contract anniversary on or before your, or your joint owner's 80th birthday; plus any purchase payments you made after that contract anniversary, less any withdrawals (and any withdrawal charges paid on the withdrawals) you made after that contract anniversary. CHECK YOUR CONTRACT AND APPLICABLE ENDORSEMENT FOR YOUR DEATH BENEFIT. The entire death benefit must be paid within 5 years of the date of death unless the beneficiary elects to have the death benefit payable under an annuity option. The death benefit payable under an annuity option must be paid over the beneficiary's lifetime or for a period not extending beyond the beneficiary's life expectancy. Payment must begin within one year of the date of death. If the beneficiary is the spouse of the owner, he/she can continue the contract in his/her own name at the then current value. If a lump sum payment is elected and all the necessary requirements are met, the payment will be made within 7 days. Payment under an annuity option may only be elected during the 60 day period beginning with the date Cova receives proof of death. If Cova does not receive an election during such time, it will make a single sum payment to the beneficiary at the end of the 60 day period. DEATH OF ANNUITANT If the annuitant, not an owner or joint owner, dies before annuity payments begin, you can name a new annuitant. If no annuitant is named within 30 days of the death of the annuitant, you will become the annuitant. However, if the owner is a non-natural person (for example, a corporation), then the death or change of annuitant will be treated as the death of the owner, and a new annuitant may not be named. Upon the death of the annuitant after annuity payments begin, the death benefit, if any, will be as provided for in the annuity option selected. OTHER INFORMATION COVA Cova Financial Services Life Insurance Company (Cova) was incorporated on August 17, 1981 as Assurance Life Company, a Missouri corporation, and changed its name to Xerox Financial Services Life Insurance Company in 1985. On June 1, 1995, a wholly-owned subsidiary of General American Life Insurance Company purchased Cova which on that date changed its name to Cova Financial Services Life Insurance Company. Cova is licensed to do business in the District of Columbia and all states except California, Maine, New Hampshire, New York and Vermont. YEAR 2000 Cova has developed and initiated plans to assure that its computer systems will function properly in the year 2000 and later years. These efforts have included receiving assurances from outside service providers that their computer systems will also function properly in this context. Included within these plans are the computer systems of the advisers and sub-advisers of the various investment portfolios underlying the Separate Account. Although an assessment of the total cost of implementing these plans has not been completed, the total amounts to be expended are not expected to have a material effect on Cova's financial position or results of operations. Cova believes that it has taken all reasonable steps to address these potential problems. There can be no guarantee, however, that the steps taken will be adequate to avoid any adverse impact. THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT Cova has established a separate account, Cova Variable Annuity Account One (Separate Account), to hold the assets that underlie the contracts. The Board of Directors of Cova adopted a resolution to establish the Separate Account under Missouri insurance law on February 24, 1987. We have registered the Separate Account with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Separate Account is divided into sub-accounts. The assets of the Separate Account are held in Cova's name on behalf of the Separate Account and legally belong to Cova. However, those assets that underlie the contracts, are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business Cova may conduct. All the income, gains and losses (realized or unrealized) resulting from these assets are credited to or charged against the contracts and not against any other contracts Cova may issue. DISTRIBUTOR Cova Life Sales Company (Life Sales), One Tower Lane, Suite 3000, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-4644, acts as the distributor of the contracts. Life Sales is an affiliate of Cova. Commissions will be paid to broker-dealers who sell the contracts. Broker-dealers will be paid commissions up to 5.5% of purchase payments but, under certain circumstances, may be paid an additional .5% commission. Sometimes, Cova enters into an agreement with the broker-dealer to pay the broker-dealer persistency bonuses, in addition to the standard commissions. OWNERSHIP OWNER. You, as the owner of the contract, have all the interest and rights under the contract. Prior to the annuity date, the owner is as designated at the time the contract is issued, unless changed. On and after the annuity date, the annuitant is the owner (this may be a taxable event). The beneficiary becomes the owner when a death benefit is payable. When this occurs, some ownership rights may be limited. JOINT OWNER. The contract can be owned by joint owners. Any joint owner must be the spouse of the other owner (except in Pennsylvania). Upon the death of either joint owner, the surviving spouse will be the designated beneficiary. Any other beneficiary designation at the time the contract was issued or as may have been later changed will be treated as a contingent beneficiary unless otherwise indicated. BENEFICIARY The beneficiary is the person(s) or entity you name to receive any death benefit. The beneficiary is named at the time the contract is issued unless changed at a later date. Unless an irrevocable beneficiary has been named, you can change the beneficiary at any time before you die. ASSIGNMENT You can assign the contract at any time during your lifetime. Cova will not be bound by the assignment until it receives the written notice of the assignment. Cova will not be liable for any payment or other action we take in accordance with the contract before we receive notice of the assignment. AN ASSIGNMENT MAY BE A TAXABLE EVENT. If the contract is issued pursuant to a qualified plan, there may be limitations on your ability to assign the contract.

APPENDIX B PERFORMANCE INFORMATION FUTURE PERFORMANCE WILL VARY AND THE RESULTS SHOWN ARE NOT NECESSARILY REPRESENTATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Note: The figures below present investment performance information for the periods ended December 31, 1998. While these numbers represent the returns as of that date, they do not represent performance information of the portfolios since that date. Performance information for the periods after December 31, 1998 may be different than the numbers shown below. PART 1 - SEPARATE ACCOUNT PERFORMANCE The portfolios listed below began operations before December 31, 1998. As a result, performance information is available for the accumulation unit values investing in these portfolios. * Column A presents performance figures for the accumulation units which reflect the insurance charges, the contract maintenance charge, the fees and expenses of the investment portfolio, and assume that you make a withdrawal at the end of the period and therefore the withdrawal charge is reflected. * Column B presents performance figures for the accumulation units which reflect the insurance charges as well as the fees and expenses of the investment portfolio. The inception dates shown below reflect the dates the Separate Account first invested in the Portfolio. The performance returns for accumulation units investing in the portfolios in existence for less than one year are not annualized. PART 1 AIM VARIABLE INSURANCE FUNDS, INC.

PART 2 - HISTORICAL FUND PERFORMANCE Shares of the General American Capital Company Money Market Fund were first offered under the Contract on June 3, 1996. Shares of the Portfolios of Variable Insurance Products Fund, Variable Insurance Products Fund II and Variable Insurance Products Fund III, AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. and MFS Variable Insurance Trust were first offered under the contract on December 30, 1997. Shares of the Portfolios of Templeton Variable Products Series Fund were first offered under the contract as of May 1, 1998. Shares of the Portfolios of Putnam Variable Trust and Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust were first offered under the contract as of May 1, 1999 (collectively, the "Existing Funds"). However, the Existing Funds have been in existence for some time and therefore have an investment performance history. In order to show how investment performance of the Existing Funds affect accumulation unit values, we have developed performance information. The chart below shows the investment performance of the Existing Funds and the accumulation units performance calculated by assuming that accumulation units were invested in the Portfolio of the Existing Fund for the same periods. * The performance figures in Column A for the Existing Funds reflect the fees and expenses paid by the Portfolio. * Column B presents performance figures for the accumulation units which reflect the insurance charges, the contract maintenance charge, the fees and expenses of the Portfolio and assumes that you make a withdrawal at the end of the period and therefore the withdrawal charge is reflected. * Column C presents performance figures for the accumulation units which reflect the insurance charges as well as the fees and expenses of the Portfolio.

On June 1, 1995 a wholly-owned subsidiary of General American Life Insurance Company ("General American") purchased the Company from Xerox Financial Services, Inc. The Company changed its name to Cova Financial Services Life Insurance Company. The Company presently is licensed to do business in the District of Columbia and all states except California, Maine, New Hampshire, New York and Vermont. General American is a St. Louis-based mutual company with more than $300 billion of life insurance in force and approximately $24 billion in assets. It provides life and health insurance, retirement plans, and related financial services to individuals and groups. EXPERTS The consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholder's equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1998, and the statement of assets and liabilities of the Separate Account as of December 31, 1998, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended and the statements of changes in net assets for the two years then ended, have been included herein in reliance upon the reports of KPMG LLP, independent certified public accountants, appearing elsewhere herein, and upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing. LEGAL OPINIONS Blazzard, Grodd & Hasenauer, P.C., Westport, Connecticut has provided advice on certain matters relating to the federal securities and income tax laws in connection with the Contracts. DISTRIBUTION Cova Life Sales Company ("Life Sales") acts as the distributor. Prior to June 1, 1995, Cova Life Sales Company was known as Xerox Life Sales Company. Life Sales is an affiliate of the Company. The offering is on a continuous basis. Reduction or Elimination of the Withdrawal Charge The amount of the Withdrawal Charge on the Contracts may be reduced or eliminated when sales of the Contracts are made to individuals or to a group of individuals in a manner that results in savings of sales expenses. The entitlement to reduction of the Withdrawal Charge will be determined by the Company after examination of all the relevant factors such as: 1. The size and type of group to which sales are to be made will be considered. Generally, the sales expenses for a larger group are less than for a smaller group because of the ability to implement large numbers of Contracts with fewer sales contacts. 2. The total amount of purchase payments to be received will be considered. Per Contract sales expenses are likely to be less on larger purchase payments than on smaller ones. 3. Any prior or existing relationship with the Company will be considered. Per Contract sales expenses are likely to be less when there is a prior existing relationship because of the likelihood of implementing the Contract with fewer sales contacts. 4. There may be other circumstances, of which the Company is not presently aware, which could result in reduced sales expenses. If, after consideration of the foregoing factors, the Company determines that there will be a reduction in sales expenses, the Company may provide for a reduction or elimination of the Withdrawal Charge. The Withdrawal Charge may be eliminated when the Contracts are issued to an officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its affiliates. In no event will any reduction or elimination of the Withdrawal Charge be permitted where the reduction or elimination will be unfairly discriminatory to any person. CALCULATION OF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION Total Return From time to time, the Company may advertise performance data. Such data will show the percentage change in the value of an Accumulation Unit based on the performance of an investment portfolio over a period of time, usually a calendar year, determined by dividing the increase (decrease) in value for that unit by the Accumulation Unit value at the beginning of the period. Any such advertisement will include total return figures for the time periods indicated in the advertisement. Such total return figures will reflect the deduction of a 1.25% Mortality and Expense Risk Premium, a .15% Administrative Expense Charge, the expenses for the underlying investment portfolio being advertised and any applicable Contract Maintenance Charges and Withdrawal Charges. The hypothetical value of a Contract purchased for the time periods described in the advertisement will be determined by using the actual Accumulation Unit values for an initial $1,000 purchase payment, and deducting any applicable Contract Maintenance Charges and any applicable Withdrawal Charge to arrive at the ending hypothetical value. The average annual total return is then determined by computing the fixed interest rate that a $1,000 purchase payment would have to earn annually, compounded annually, to grow to the hypothetical value at the end of the time periods described. The formula used in these calculations is: n P (1 + T) = ERV Where: P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000 T = average annual total return n = number of years ERV = ending redeemable value at the end of the time periods used (or fractional portion thereof) of a hypothetical $1,000 payment made at the beginning of the time periods used. The Company may also advertise performance data which will be calculated in the same manner as described above but which will not reflect the deduction of any Withdrawal Charge. The deduction of any Withdrawal Charge would reduce any percentage increase or make greater any percentage decrease. You should note that the investment results of each investment portfolio will fluctuate over time, and any presentation of the investment portfolio's total return for any period should not be considered as a representation of what an investment may earn or what your total return may be in any future period. Historical Unit Values The Company may also show historical Accumulation Unit values in certain advertisements containing illustrations. These illustrations will be based on actual Accumulation Unit values. In addition, the Company may distribute sales literature which compares the percentage change in Accumulation Unit values for any of the investment portfolios against established market indices such as the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index, the Dow Jones Industrial Average or other management investment companies which have investment objectives similar to the investment portfolio being compared. The Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index is an unmanaged, unweighted average of 500 stocks, the majority of which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is an unmanaged, weighted average of thirty blue chip industrial corporations listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Both the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average assume quarterly reinvestment of dividends. Reporting Agencies The Company may also distribute sales literature which compares the performance of the Accumulation Unit values of the Contracts with the unit values of variable annuities issued by other insurance companies. Such information will be derived from the Lipper Variable Insurance Products Performance Analysis Service, the VARDS Report or from Morningstar. The Lipper Variable Insurance Products Performance Analysis Service is published by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc., a publisher of statistical data which currently tracks the performance of almost 4,000 investment companies. The rankings compiled by Lipper may or may not reflect the deduction of asset-based insurance charges. The Company's sales literature utilizing these rankings will indicate whether or not such charges have been deducted. Where the charges have not been deducted, the sales literature will indicate that if the charges had been deducted, the ranking might have been lower. The VARDS Report is a monthly variable annuity industry analysis compiled by Variable Annuity Research & Data Service of Roswell, Georgia and published by Financial Planning Resources, Inc. The VARDS rankings may or may not reflect the deduction of asset-based insurance charges. In addition, VARDS prepares risk adjusted rankings, which consider the effects of market risk on total return performance. This type of ranking may address the question as to which funds provide the highest total return with the least amount of risk. Other ranking services may be used as sources of performance comparison, such as CDA/Weisenberger. Morningstar rates a variable annuity against its peers with similar investment objectives. Morningstar does not rate any variable annuity that has less than three years of performance data. Performance Information The Accumulation Units which invest in the Portfolios managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company, A I M Advisors, Inc., Massachusetts Financial Services Company, Franklin Advisers, Inc., Franklin Mutual Advisers, Inc., Templeton Investment Counsel, Inc. and Templeton Asset Management Ltd. have no meaningful investment performance history yet while the Accumulation Units which invest in the Portfolio managed by Conning Asset Management Company have a short investment performance history. (These funds are referred to collectively as the "Existing Funds.") However, certain Portfolios of the Existing Funds have been in existence for some time and consequently have an investment performance history. In order to demonstrate how the investment experience of the Existing Funds affect Accumulation Unit values, performance information was developed. The information is based upon the historical experience of the Existing Funds and is for the periods shown. The prospectus contains a chart of performance information. Future performance of the Existing Funds will vary and the results shown are not necessarily representative of future results. Performance for periods ending after those shown may vary substantially from the examples shown. The performance of the Existing Funds is calculated for a specified period of time by assuming an initial Purchase Payment of $1,000 allocated to the Portfolio. There are performance figures for the Accumulation Units which reflect the insurance charges as well as the Portfolio expenses. There are also performance figures for the Accumulation Units which reflect the insurance charges, the contract maintenance charge, the Portfolio expenses, and assume that you make a withdrawal at the end of the period and therefore the withdrawal charge is reflected. The percentage increases (decreases) are determined by subtracting the initial Purchase Payment from the ending value and dividing the remainder by the beginning value. The performance may also show figures when no withdrawal is assumed. FEDERAL TAX STATUS General NOTE: THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION IS BASED UPON THE COMPANY'S UNDERSTANDING OF CURRENT FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAW APPLICABLE TO ANNUITIES IN GENERAL. THE COMPANY CANNOT PREDICT THE PROBABILITY THAT ANY CHANGES IN SUCH LAWS WILL BE MADE. PURCHASERS ARE CAUTIONED TO SEEK COMPETENT TAX ADVICE REGARDING THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH CHANGES. THE COMPANY DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE TAX STATUS OF THE CONTRACTS. PURCHASERS BEAR THE COMPLETE RISK THAT THE CONTRACTS MAY NOT BE TREATED AS "ANNUITY CONTRACTS" UNDER FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS. IT SHOULD BE FURTHER UNDERSTOOD THAT THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS NOT EXHAUSTIVE AND THAT SPECIAL RULES NOT DESCRIBED HEREIN MAY BE APPLICABLE IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS. MOREOVER, NO ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO CONSIDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE OR OTHER TAX LAWS. Section 72 of the Code governs taxation of annuities in general. An Owner is not taxed on increases in the value of a Contract until distribution occurs, either in the form of a lump sum payment or as annuity payments under the Annuity Option selected. For a lump sum payment received as a total withdrawal (total surrender), the recipient is taxed on the portion of the payment that exceeds the cost basis of the Contract. For Non-Qualified Contracts, this cost basis is generally the purchase payments, while for Qualified Contracts there may be no cost basis. The taxable portion of the lump sum payment is taxed at ordinary income tax rates. For annuity payments, a portion of each payment in excess of an exclusion amount is includible in taxable income. The exclusion amount for payments based on a fixed annuity option is determined by multiplying the payment by the ratio that the cost basis of the Contract (adjusted for any period or refund feature) bears to the expected return under the Contract. The exclusion amount for payments based on a variable annuity option is determined by dividing the cost basis of the Contract (adjusted for any period certain or refund guarantee) by the number of years over which the annuity is expected to be paid. Payments received after the investment in the Contract has been recovered (i.e. when the total of the excludable amount equals the investment in the Contract) are fully taxable. The taxable portion is taxed at ordinary income tax rates. For certain types of Qualified Plans there may be no cost basis in the Contract within the meaning of Section 72 of the Code. Owners, Annuitants and Beneficiaries under the Contracts should seek competent financial advice about the tax consequences of any distributions. The Company is taxed as a life insurance company under the Code. For federal income tax purposes, the Separate Account is not a separate entity from the Company, and its operations form a part of the Company. Diversification Section 817(h) of the Code imposes certain diversification standards on the underlying assets of variable annuity contracts. The Code provides that a variable annuity contract will not be treated as an annuity contract for any period (and any subsequent period) for which the investments are not, in accordance with regulations prescribed by the United States Treasury Department ("Treasury Department"), adequately diversified. Disqualification of the Contract as an annuity contract would result in the imposition of federal income tax to the Owner with respect to earnings allocable to the Contract prior to the receipt of payments under the Contract. The Code contains a safe harbor provision which provides that annuity contracts such as the Contract meet the diversification requirements if, as of the end of each quarter, the underlying assets meet the diversification standards for a regulated investment company and no more than fifty-five percent (55%) of the total assets consist of cash, cash items, U.S. Government securities and securities of other regulated investment companies. On March 2, 1989, the Treasury Department issued Regulations (Treas. Reg.1.817-5), which established diversification requirements for the investment portfolios underlying variable contracts such as the Contract. The Regulations amplify the diversification requirements for variable contracts set forth in the Code and provide an alternative to the safe harbor provision described above. Under the Regulations, an investment portfolio will be deemed adequately diversified if: (1) no more than 55% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any one investment; (2) no more than 70% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any two investments; (3) no more than 80% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any three investments; and (4) no more than 90% of the value of the total assets of the portfolio is represented by any four investments. The Code provides that, for purposes of determining whether or not the diversification standards imposed on the underlying assets of variable contracts by Section 817(h) of the Code have been met, "each United States government agency or instrumentality shall be treated as a separate issuer." The Company intends that all investment portfolios underlying the Contracts will be managed in such a manner as to comply with these diversification requirements. The Treasury Department has indicated that the diversification Regulations do not provide guidance regarding the circumstances in which Owner control of the investments of the Separate Account will cause the Owner to be treated as the owner of the assets of the Separate Account, thereby resulting in the loss of favorable tax treatment for the Contract. At this time it cannot be determined whether additional guidance will be provided and what standards may be contained in such guidance. The amount of Owner control which may be exercised under the Contract is different in some respects from the situations addressed in published rulings issued by the Internal Revenue Service in which it was held that the policy owner was not the owner of the assets of the separate account. It is unknown whether these differences, such as the Owner's ability to transfer among investment choices or the number and type of investment choices available, would cause the Owner to be considered as the owner of the assets of the Separate Account resulting in the imposition of federal income tax to the Owner with respect to earnings allocable to the Contract prior to receipt of payments under the Contract. In the event any forthcoming guidance or ruling is considered to set forth a new position, such guidance or ruling will generally be applied only prospectively. However, if such ruling or guidance was not considered to set forth a new position, it may be applied retroactively resulting in the Owners being retroactively determined to be the owners of the assets of the Separate Account. Due to the uncertainty in this area, the Company reserves the right to modify the Contract in an attempt to maintain favorable tax treatment. Multiple Contracts The Code provides that multiple non-qualified annuity contracts which are issued within a calendar year to the same contract owner by one company or its affiliates are treated as one annuity contract for purposes of determining the tax consequences of any distribution. Such treatment may result in adverse tax consequences including more rapid taxation of the distributed amounts from such combination of contracts. For purposes of this rule, contracts received in a Section 1035 exchange will be considered issued in the year of the exchange. Owners should consult a tax adviser prior to purchasing more than one non-qualified annuity contract in any calendar year. Contracts Owned by Other than Natural Persons Under Section 72(u) of the Code, the investment earnings on premiums for the Contracts will be taxed currently to the Owner if the Owner is a non-natural person, e.g., a corporation or certain other entities. Such Contracts generally will not be treated as annuities for federal income tax purposes. However, this treatment is not applied to a Contract held by a trust or other entity as an agent for a natural person nor to Contracts held by Qualified Plans. Purchasers should consult their own tax counsel or other tax adviser before purchasing a Contract to be owned by a non-natural person. Tax Treatment of Assignments or Transfer of Ownership An assignment, pledge or transfer of ownership of a Contract may be a taxable event. Owners should therefore consult competent tax advisers should they wish to assign, pledge or transfer ownership of their Contracts. Income Tax Withholding All distributions or the portion thereof which is includible in the gross income of the Owner are subject to federal income tax withholding. Generally, amounts are withheld from periodic payments at the same rate as wages and at the rate of 10% from non-periodic payments. However, the Owner, in most cases, may elect not to have taxes withheld or to have withholding done at a different rate. Effective January 1, 1993, certain distributions from retirement plans qualified under Section 401 or Section 403(b) of the Code, which are not directly rolled over to another eligible retirement plan or individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity, are subject to a mandatory 20% withholding for federal income tax. The 20% withholding requirement generally does not apply to: a) a series of substantially equal payments made at least annually for the life or life expectancy of the participant or joint and last survivor expectancy of the participant and a designated beneficiary or for a specified period of 10 years or more; or b) distributions which are required minimum distributions; or c) the portion of the distributions not includible in gross income (i.e. returns of after-tax contributions); or d) hardship withdrawals. Participants should consult their own tax counsel or other tax adviser regarding withholding requirements. Tax Treatment of Withdrawals - Non-Qualified Contracts Section 72 of the Code governs treatment of distributions from annuity contracts. It provides that if the Contract Value exceeds the aggregate purchase payments made, any amount withdrawn will be treated as coming first from the earnings and then, only after the income portion is exhausted, as coming from the principal. Withdrawn earnings are includible in gross income. It further provides that a ten percent (10%) penalty will apply to the income portion of any premature distribution. However, the penalty is not imposed on amounts received: (a) after the taxpayer reaches age 59 1/2; (b) after the death of the Owner; (c) if the taxpayer is totally disabled (for this purpose disability is as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Code); (d) in a series of substantially equal periodic payments made not less frequently than annually for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer or for the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the taxpayer and his or her Beneficiary; (e) under an immediate annuity; or (f) which are allocable to purchase payments made prior to August 14, 1982. With respect to (d) above, if the series of substantially equal periodic payments is modified before the later of your attaining age 59 1/2 or 5 years from the date of the first periodic payment, then the tax for the year of the modification is increased by an amount equal to the tax which would have been imposed (the 10% penalty tax) but for the exception, plus interest for the tax years in which the exception was used. The above information does not apply to Qualified Contracts. However, separate tax withdrawal penalties and restrictions may apply to such Qualified Contracts. (See "Tax Treatment of Withdrawals - Qualified Contracts" below.) Qualified Plans The Contracts offered herein are designed to be suitable for use under various types of Qualified Plans. Taxation of participants in each Qualified Plan varies with the type of plan and terms and conditions of each specific plan. Owners, Annuitants and Beneficiaries are cautioned that benefits under a Qualified Plan may be subject to the terms and conditions of the plan regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contracts issued pursuant to the plan. Some retirement plans are subject to distribution and other requirements that are not incorporated into the Company's administrative procedures. Owners, participants and Beneficiaries are responsible for determining that contributions, distributions and other transactions with respect to the Contracts comply with applicable law. Following are general descriptions of the types of Qualified Plans with which the Contracts may be used. Such descriptions are not exhaustive and are for general informational purposes only. The tax rules regarding Qualified Plans are very complex and will have differing applications depending on individual facts and circumstances. Each purchaser should obtain competent tax advice prior to purchasing a Contract issued under a Qualified Plan. Contracts issued pursuant to Qualified Plans include special provisions restricting Contract provisions that may otherwise be available as described herein. Generally, Contracts issued pursuant to Qualified Plans are not transferable except upon surrender or annuitization. Various penalty and excise taxes may apply to contributions or distributions made in violation of applicable limitations. Furthermore, certain withdrawal penalties and restrictions may apply to surrenders from Qualified Contracts. (See "Tax Treatment of Withdrawals - Qualified Contracts" below.) On July 6, 1983, the Supreme Court decided in Arizona Governing Committee v. Norris that optional annuity benefits provided under an employer's deferred compensation plan could not, under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, vary between men and women. The Contracts sold by the Company in connection with Qualified Plans will utilize annuity tables which do not differentiate on the basis of sex. Such annuity tables will also be available for use in connection with certain non-qualified deferred compensation plans. a. Tax-Sheltered Annuities Section 403(b) of the Code permits the purchase of "tax-sheltered annuities" by public schools and certain charitable, educational and scientific organizations described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code. These qualifying employers may make contributions to the Contracts for the benefit of their employees. Such contributions are not includible in the gross income of the employees until the employees receive distributions from the Contracts. The amount of contributions to the tax-sheltered annuity is limited to certain maximums imposed by the Code. Furthermore, the Code sets forth additional restrictions governing such items as transferability, distributions, nondiscrimination and withdrawals. (See "Tax Treatment of Withdrawals - Qualified Contracts" and "Tax-Sheltered Annuities - Withdrawal Limitations" below.) Employee loans are not allowable under the Contracts. Any employee should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment. b. Individual Retirement Annuities Section 408(b) of the Code permits eligible individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an "Individual Retirement Annuity" ("IRA"). Under applicable limitations, certain amounts may be contributed to an IRA which will be deductible from the individual's taxable income. These IRAs are subject to limitations on eligibility, contributions, transferability and distributions. (See "Tax Treatment of Withdrawals - Qualified Contracts" below.) Under certain conditions, distributions from other IRAs and other Qualified Plans may be rolled over or transferred on a tax-deferred basis into an IRA. Sales of Contracts for use with IRAs are subject to special requirements imposed by the Code, including the requirement that certain informational disclosure be given to persons desiring to establish an IRA. Purchasers of Contracts to be qualified as Individual Retirement Annuities should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment. Roth IRAs Section 408A of the Code provides that beginning in 1998, individuals may purchase a new type of non-deductible IRA, known as a Roth IRA. Purchase payments for a Roth IRA are limited to a maximum of $2,000 per year and are not deductible from taxable income. Lower maximum limitations apply to individuals with adjusted gross incomes between $95,000 and $110,000 in the case of single taxpayers, between $150,000 and $160,000 in the case of married taxpayers filing joint returns, and between $0 and $10,000 in the case of married taxpayers filing separately. An overall $2,000 annual limitation continues to apply to all of a taxpayer's IRA contributions, including Roth IRA and non-Roth IRAs. Qualified distributions from Roth IRAs are free from federal income tax. A qualified distribution requires that an individual has held the Roth IRA for at least five years and, in addition, that the distribution is made either after the individual reaches age 59 1/2, on the individual's death or disability, or as a qualified first-time home purchase, subject to a $10,000 lifetime maximum, for the individual, a spouse, child, grandchild, or ancestor. Any distribution which is not a qualified distribution is taxable to the extent of earnings in the distribution. Distributions are treated as made from contributions first and therefore no distributions are taxable until distributions exceed the amount of contributions to the Roth IRA. The 10% penalty tax and the regular IRA exceptions to the 10% penalty tax apply to taxable distributions from a Roth IRA. Amounts may be rolled over from one Roth IRA to another Roth IRA. Furthermore, an individual may make a rollover contribution from a non-Roth IRA to a Roth IRA, unless the individual has adjusted gross income over $100,000 or the individual is a married taxpayer filing a separate return. The individual must pay tax on any portion of the IRA being rolled over that represents income or a previously deductible IRA contribution. However, for rollovers that occurred in 1998, the individual may pay that tax ratably over the four taxable year period beginning with tax year 1998. Purchasers of Contracts to be qualified as a Roth IRA should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment. c. Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code permit employers, including self-employed individuals, to establish various types of retirement plans for employees. These retirement plans may permit the purchase of the Contracts to provide benefits under the Plan. Contributions to the Plan for the benefit of employees will not be includible in the gross income of the employees until distributed from the Plan. The tax consequences to participants may vary depending upon the particular plan design. However, the Code places limitations and restrictions on all Plans including on such items as: amount of allowable contributions; form, manner and timing of distributions; transferability of benefits; vesting and nonforfeitability of interests; nondiscrimination in eligibility and participation; and the tax treatment of distributions, withdrawals and surrenders. (See "Tax Treatment of Withdrawals - Qualified Contracts" below.) Purchasers of Contracts for use with Pension or Profit Sharing Plans should obtain competent tax advice as to the tax treatment and suitability of such an investment. Tax Treatment of Withdrawals - Qualified Contracts In the case of a withdrawal under a Qualified Contract, a ratable portion of the amount received is taxable, generally based on the ratio of the individual's cost basis to the individual's total accrued benefit under the retirement plan. Special tax rules may be available for certain distributions from a Qualified Contract. Section 72(t) of the Code imposes a 10% penalty tax on the taxable portion of any distribution from qualified retirement plans, including Contracts issued and qualified under Code Sections 401 (Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans), 403(b)(Tax-Sheltered Annuities) and 408 and 408A (Individual Retirement Annuities). To the extent amounts are not includible in gross income because they have been rolled over to an IRA or to another eligible Qualified Plan, no tax penalty will be imposed. The tax penalty will not apply to the following distributions: (a) if distribution is made on or after the date on which the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) reaches age 59 1/2; (b) distributions following the death or disability of the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) (for this purpose disability is as defined in Section 72(m) (7) of the Code); (c) after separation from service, distributions that are part of substantially equal periodic payments made not less frequently than annually for the life (or life expectancy) of the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of such Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) and his or her designated Beneficiary; (d) distributions to an Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) who has separated from service after he has attained age 55; (e) distributions made to the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) to the extent such distributions do not exceed the amount allowable as a deduction under Code Section 213 to the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) for amounts paid during the taxable year for medical care; (f) distributions made to an alternate payee pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (g) distributions from an Individual Retirement Annuity for the purchase of medical insurance (as described in Section 213(d)(1)(D) of the Code) for the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) and his or her spouse and dependents if the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) has received unemployment compensation for at least 12 weeks (this exception will no longer apply after the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) has been re-employed for at least 60 days); (h) distributions from an Individual Retirement Annuity made to the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) to the extent such distributions do not exceed the qualified higher education expenses (as defined in Section 72(t)(7) of the Code) of the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) for the taxable year; and (i) distributions from an Individual Retirement Annuity made to the Owner or Annuitant (as applicable) which are qualified first-time home buyer distributions (as defined in Section 72(t)(8)of the Code.) The exceptions stated in (d) and (f) above do not apply in the case of an Individual Retirement Annuity. The exception stated in (c) above applies to an Individual Retirement Annuity without the requirement that there be a separation from service. With respect to (c) above, if the series of substantially equal periodic payments is modified before the later of your attaining age 59 1/2 or 5 years from the date of the first periodic payment, then the tax for the year of the modification is increased by an amount equal to the tax which would have been imposed (the 10% penalty tax) but for the exception, plus interest for the tax years in which the exception was used. Generally, distributions from a qualified plan must begin no later than April 1st of the calendar year following the later of (a) the year in which the employee attains age 70 1/2 or (b) the calendar year in which the employee retires. The date set forth in (b) does not apply to an Individual Retirement Annuity. Required distributions must be over a period not exceeding the life expectancy of the individual or the joint lives or life expectancies of the individual and his or her designated beneficiary. If the required minimum distributions are not made, a 50% penalty tax is imposed as to the amount not distributed. Tax-Sheltered Annuities - Withdrawal Limitations The Code limits the withdrawal of amounts attributable to contributions made pursuant to a salary reduction agreement (as defined in Section 403(b)(11) of the Code) to circumstances only when the Owner: (1) attains age 59 1/2; (2) separates from service; (3) dies; (4) becomes disabled (within the meaning of Section 72(m)(7) of the Code); or (5) in the case of hardship. However, withdrawals for hardship are restricted to the portion of the Owner's Contract Value which represents contributions made by the Owner and does not include any investment results. The limitations on withdrawals became effective on January 1, 1989 and apply only to salary reduction contributions made after December 31, 1988, to income attributable to such contributions and to income attributable to amounts held as of December 31, 1988. The limitations on withdrawals do not affect transfers between Tax-Sheltered Annuity Plans. Owners should consult their own tax counsel or other tax adviser regarding any distributions. ANNUITY PROVISIONS Variable Annuity A variable annuity is an annuity with payments which: (1) are not predetermined as to dollar amount; and (2) will vary in amount with the net investment results of the applicable investment portfolio(s) of the Separate Account. At the Annuity Date, the Contract Value in each investment portfolio will be applied to the applicable Annuity Tables. The Annuity Table used will depend upon the Annuity Option chosen. If, as of the Annuity Date, the then current Annuity Option rates applicable to this class of Contracts provide a first Annuity Payment greater than guaranteed under the same Annuity Option under this Contract, the greater payment will be made. The dollar amount of Annuity Payments after the first is determined as follows: (1) the dollar amount of the first Annuity Payment is divided by the value of an Annuity Unit as of the Annuity Date. This establishes the number of Annuity Units for each monthly payment. The number of Annuity Units remains fixed during the Annuity Payment period. (2) the fixed number of Annuity Units is multiplied by the Annuity Unit value for the last Valuation Period of the month preceding the month for which the payment is due. This result is the dollar amount of the payment. The total dollar amount of each Variable Annuity Payment is the sum of all investment portfolios' Variable Annuity Payments reduced by the applicable Contract Maintenance Charge. Fixed Annuity A fixed annuity is a series of payments made during the Annuity Period which are guaranteed as to dollar amount by the Company and do not vary with the investment experience of the Separate Account. The General Account Value on the day immediately preceding the Annuity Date will be used to determine the Fixed Annuity monthly payment. The first monthly Annuity Payment will be based upon the Annuity Option elected and the appropriate Annuity Option Table. Annuity Unit The value of an Annuity Unit for each investment portfolio was arbitrarily set initially at $10. This was done when the first investment portfolio shares were purchased. The investment portfolio Annuity Unit value at the end of any subsequent Valuation Period is determined by multiplying the investment portfolio Annuity Unit value for the immediately preceding Valuation Period by the product of (a) the Net Investment Factor for the day for which the Annuity Unit value is being calculated, and (b) 0.999919. Net Investment Factor The Net Investment Factor for any investment portfolio for any Valuation Period is determined by dividing: (a) the Accumulation Unit value as of the close of the current Valuation Period, by (b) the Accumulation Unit value as of the close of the immediately preceding Valuation Period. The Net Investment Factor may be greater or less than one, as the Annuity Unit value may increase or decrease. Mortality and Expense Guarantee The Company guarantees that the dollar amount of each Annuity Payment after the first Annuity Payment will not be affected by variations in mortality or expense experience. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein should be considered only as bearing upon the ability of the Company to meet its obligations under the Contracts. COVA VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT ONE Financial Statements December 31, 1998 and 1997 (With Independent Auditors' Report Thereon) INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT The Contract Owners of Cova Variable Annuity Account One, Board of Directors and Shareholder of Cova Financial Services Life Insurance Company: We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Quality Income, Money Market, High Yield, Stock Index, Growth and Income, Bond Debenture, Developing Growth, Large Cap Research, Mid-Cap Value, Quality Bond, Small Cap Stock, Large Cap Stock, Select Equity, International Equity, Balanced, Small Cap Equity, Equity Income, and Growth and Income Equity sub-accounts (investment options within the Cova Series Trust); the Growth and Income sub-account (investment option within the Lord Abbett Series Fund, Inc.); the Money Market sub-account (investment option within the General American Capital Company); the Multi-Style Equity, Aggressive Equity, Non-US, and Core Bond sub-accounts (investment options within the Russell Insurance Funds); the AIM V.I.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Separate Account's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. 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 owned as of December 31, 1998 by correspondence with transfer agents.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. COVA VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT ONE Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1998 and 1997 (1) ORGANIZATION Cova Variable Annuity Account One (the Separate Account), a unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended, was established by Cova Financial Services Life Insurance Company (Cova) and exists in accordance with the regulations of the Missouri Department of Insurance. The Separate Account is a funding vehicle for variable annuity contracts issued by Cova.
The Separate Account is divided into sub-accounts with the assets of each sub-account invested in the corresponding portfolios of the following investment companies: Cova Series Trust (Trust) 18 portfolios Lord Abbett Series Fund, Inc. (Lord Abbett) 1 portfolio General American Capital Company (GACC) 1 portfolio Russell Insurance Funds (Russell) 4 portfolios AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (AIM) 3 portfolios Alliance Variable Products Series Fund, Inc. (Alliance) 2 portfolios Liberty Variable Investment Trust (Liberty) 1 portfolio Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust (Goldman Sachs) 3 portfolios Investors Fund Series (Kemper) 4 portfolios MFS Variable Insurance Trust (MFS) 7 portfolios Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds (Oppenheimer) 5 portfolios Putnam Variable Trust (Putnam) 5 portfolios Templeton Variable Products Series Fund (Templeton) 3 portfolios Variable Insurance Products Fund, Fund II, and Fund III (Fidelity) 5 portfolios
Each investment company is a diversified, open-end, management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended. Not all sub-accounts are available for investment depending upon the terms of the variable annuity contracts offered for sale by Cova. (2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (A) INVESTMENT VALUATION Investments made in the portfolios of the investment companies are valued at the reported net asset value of such portfolios, which value their investment securities at fair value. The average cost method is used to compute the realized gains and losses on the sale of portfolio shares owned by the sub-accounts. Income from dividends and gains from realized gain distributions are recorded on the ex-distribution date. (B) REINVESTMENT OF DISTRIBUTIONS With the exception of the GACC Money Market Fund, dividends and gains from realized gain distributions are reinvested in additional shares of the portfolio. GACC follows the Federal income tax practice known as consent dividending, whereby substantially all of its net investment income and realized capital gains are deemed to pass through to the Separate Account. As a result, GACC does not distribute dividends and realized gains. During December of each year, the accumulated net investment income and realized capital gains of the GACC Money Market Fund are allocated to the Separate Account by increasing the cost basis and recognizing a capital gain in the Separate Account. (C) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The operations of the Separate Account are included in the federal income tax return of Cova, which is taxed as a Life Insurance Company under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Under current IRC provisions, Cova believes it will be treated as the owner of the Separate Account assets for federal income tax purposes and does not expect to incur federal income taxes on the earnings of the Separate Account to the extent the earnings are credited to the variable annuity contracts. Based on this, no charge is being made currently to the Separate Account for federal income taxes. A charge may be made in future years for any federal income taxes that would be attributable to the contracts. (D) ANNUITY RESERVES Annuity reserves are computed for contracts in the payout stage according to the 1983a Mortality Table. The assumed investment return is 3%. The mortality risk is borne by Cova and may result in additional transfers to the Separate Account. Conversely, if reserves exceed amounts required, transfers may be made from the Separate Account to Cova. The charges were not material in 1998. (3) SEPARATE ACCOUNT EXPENSES Cova deducts a daily charge from the net assets of the Separate Account equivalent to an annual rate of 1.25% for the assumption of mortality and expense risks and 0.15% for administrative expenses. The mortality risks assumed by Cova arise from its contractual obligation to make annuity payments after the annuity date for the life of the annuitant and to waive the withdrawal fee in the event of the death of the contract owner. The administrative fees cover the cost of establishing and maintaining the variable annuity contracts and the Separate Account. (4) CONTRACT FEES There are no deductions made from purchase payments for sales fees at the time a variable annuity contract is purchased. However, if all or a portion of the contract value is withdrawn, a withdrawal fee may be assessed and deducted from the contract value or payment to the contract owner. The withdrawal fee is imposed on withdrawals of contract values attributable to purchase payments within five years after receipt and is equal to 5% of the purchase payment withdrawn. After the first contract anniversary, provided the contract value exceeds $5,000, the contract owner may make one withdrawal each contract year of up to 10% of the aggregate purchase payments (on deposit for more than one year) without incurring a surrender fee. In 1998, surrender fees of $436 thousand were deducted from the contract values in the Separate Account. An annual contract maintenance fee of $30 is imposed on all variable annuity contracts with contract values less than $50,000 on their policy anniversary. This fee covers the cost of contract administration for the previous year and is prorated between the sub-accounts and the fixed rate account to which the contract value is allocated. Subject to certain restrictions, the contract owner may transfer all or a part of the accumulated value of the contract among the available sub-accounts of the Separate Account and the fixed rate account offered by Cova. If more than 12 transfers have been made in the contract year, a transfer fee of $25 per transfer or, if less, 2% of amount transferred, may be deducted from the contract account value. Transfers made in the Dollar Cost Averaging program are not subject to the transfer fee. In 1998, contract maintenance and transfer fees of $478 thousand were deducted from the contract values in the Separate Account. Cova currently advances any premium taxes due at the time purchase payments are made and then deducts premium taxes from the contract value at the time annuity payments begin. Cova reserves the right to deduct premium taxes when incurred. (5) SUBSEQUENT EVENT On January 8, 1999, the five sub-accounts investing in the Trust portfolios managed by Van Kampen American Capital Advisory Corp. (VKAC) - Quality Income, Money Market, High Yield, Stock Index, and VKAC Growth and Income portfolios - ceased operations and their assets were transferred to one new and four existing sub-accounts in accordance with the substitution order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. On January 8, 1999, the Lord Abbett Growth and Income sub-account ceased operations and its assets were transferred to the Trust Lord Abbett Growth and Income sub-account which commenced operations on January 8, 1999. The Trust Lord Abbett Growth and Income sub-account invests in the Trust Lord Abbett Growth and Income Portfolio which commenced operations on January 8, 1999. The Trust Lord Abbett Growth and Income Portfolio is managed by Lord Abbett who also manages the Lord Abbett Growth and Income Portfolio.

COVA FINANCIAL SERVICES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES (a wholly owned subsidiary of Cova Corporation) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 (1) NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION NATURE OF THE BUSINESS Cova Financial Services Life Insurance Company (CFSLIC) and subsidiaries (the Company) market and service single premium deferred annuities, immediate annuities, variable annuities, term life, single premium variable universal life, and single premium whole life insurance policies. The Company is licensed to do business in 47 states and the District of Columbia. Most of the policies issued present no significant mortality nor longevity risk to the Company, but rather represent investment deposits by the policyholders. Single premium whole life insurance policies provide policy beneficiaries with mortality benefits amounting to a multiple, which declines with age, of the original premium. Under the deferred fixed annuity contracts, interest rates credited to policyholder deposits are guaranteed by the Company for periods from one to ten years, but in no case may renewal rates be less than 3%. The Company may assess surrender fees against amounts withdrawn prior to scheduled rate reset and adjust account values based on current crediting rates. Policyholders also may incur certain federal income tax penalties on withdrawals. Under the variable annuity contracts, policyholder deposits are allocated to various separate account sub-accounts or the general accounts. A sub-account is valued at the sum of market values of the securities in its underlying investment portfolio. The contract value allocated to a sub-account will fluctuate based on the performance of the sub-accounts. The contract value allocated to the general accounts is credited with a fixed interest rate for a specified period. The Company may assess surrender fees against amounts withdrawn prior to the end of the withdrawal charge period. Policyholders also may incur certain federal income tax penalties on withdrawals. Under the single premium variable life contracts, policyholder deposits are allocated to various separate account sub-accounts. The account value allocated to a sub-account will fluctuate based on the performance of the sub-accounts. The Company guarantees a minimum death benefit to be paid to the beneficiaries upon the death of the insured. The Company may assess surrender fees against amounts withdrawn prior to the end of the surrender charge period. A deferred premium tax may also be assessed against amounts withdrawn in the first ten years. Policyholders may also incur certain federal income tax penalties on withdrawals. Under the term life insurance policies, policyholders pay a level premium over a certain period of time to guarantee a death benefit will be paid to the beneficiaries upon the death of the insured. This policy has no cash accumulation available to the policyholder. Although the Company markets its products through numerous distributors, including regional brokerage firms, national brokerage firms, and banks, approximately 89%, 73%, and 66% of the Company's sales have been through two specific brokerage firms, A. G. Edwards & Sons, Incorporated and Edward Jones & Company in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. ORGANIZATION CFSLIC, formerly Xerox Financial Services Life Insurance Company (XFSLIC), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cova Corporation, a subsidiary of General American Life Insurance Company (GALIC), a Missouri domiciled life insurance company. When Cova Corporation purchased CSFLIC from Xerox Financial Services, Inc. (XFSI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Xerox Corporation, it entered into a financing reinsurance transaction with OakRe Life Insurance Company (OakRe), a subsidiary of XFSLIC, to assume the economic benefits and risks of the existing single premium deferred annuity deposits (SPDAs) of CFSLIC. Ownership of OakRe was retained by XFSI subsequent to the sale of XFSLIC and other affiliates. The receivable from OakRe to the Company that was created by this transaction will be liquidated over the remaining crediting rate guaranty periods which will be substantially expired by the end of the year 2000, from the transfer of cash in the amount of the then current account value, less a recapture commission fee to OakRe on policies retained beyond their 30-day-no-fee surrender window by the Company, upon the next crediting rate reset date of each annuity policy. The Company may then reinvest that cash for those policies that are retained and thereafter assume the benefits and risks of those deposits. In the event that both OakRe and XFSI default on the receivable, the Company may draw funds from a standby bank irrevocable letter of credit established by XFSI in the amount of $500 million. No funds were drawn on this letter of credit during the periods ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. In substance, terms of the agreement have allowed the seller, XFSI, to retain substantially all of the existing financial benefits and risks of the existing business, while the purchaser, GALIC, obtained the corporate operating and product licenses, marketing, and administrative capabilities of the Company and access to the retention of the policyholder deposit base that persists beyond the next crediting rate reset date. The Company owns 100% of the outstanding shares of First Cova Life Insurance Company (a New York domiciled insurance company) (FCLIC) and Cova Financial Life Insurance Company (a California domiciled insurance company) (CFLIC). Ownership of CFLIC was obtained on December 31, 1996 as the result of a capital contribution by Cova Corporation. The Company has presented the consolidated financial position and results of operations for its subsidiaries from the dates of actual ownership (see note 9). (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES DEBT SECURITIES Investments in all debt securities with readily determinable market values are classified into one of three categories: held to maturity, trading, or available-for-sale. Classification of investments is based on management's current intent. All debt securities at December 31, 1998 and 1997 were classified as available-for-sale. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as accumulated other comprehensive income in the shareholder's equity, net of deferred effects of income tax and related effects on deferred acquisition costs and present value of future profits. Amortization of the discount or premium from the purchase of mortgage-backed bonds is recognized using a level-yield method which considers the estimated timing and amount of prepayments of the underlying mortgage loans. Actual prepayment experience is periodically reviewed and effective yields are recalculated when differences arise between the prepayments previously anticipated and the actual prepayments received and currently anticipated. When such a difference occurs, the net investment in the mortgage-backed bond is adjusted to the amount that would have existed had the new effective yield been applied since the acquisition of the bond, with a corresponding charge or credit to interest income (the "retrospective method"). A realized loss is recognized and charged against income if the Company's carrying value in a particular investment in the available-for-sale category has experienced a significant decline in fair value that is deemed to be other than temporary. Investment income is recorded when earned. Realized capital gains and losses on the sale of investments are determined on the basis of specific costs of investments and are credited or charged to income. Gains or losses on financial future or option contracts which qualify as hedges of investments are treated as basis adjustments and are recognized in income over the life of the hedged investments. EQUITY SECURITIES Equity securities represent investments in nonredeemable preferred stock and common stock warrants. These securities are carried at fair value, which is determined primarily through published quotes of trading values. Changes to adjust the carrying value are reported directly in shareholder's equity. Other-than-temporary declines below cost are recorded as realized losses. MORTGAGE LOANS AND POLICY LOANS Mortgage loans and policy loans are carried at their unpaid principal balances. An allowance for mortgage loan losses is established based on an evaluation of the mortgage loan portfolio, past credit loss experience, and current economic conditions. Reserves for loans are established when the Company determines that collection of all amounts due under the contractual terms is doubtful and are calculated in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -Income Recognition and Disclosures. The Company had no impaired loans, and the valuation allowance for potential losses on mortgage loans was $510,000 and $237,000, at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents include currency and demand deposits in banks, U.S. Treasury bills, money market accounts, and commercial paper with maturities under 90 days, which are not otherwise restricted. SEPARATE ACCOUNT ASSETS Separate accounts contain segregated assets of the Company that are specifically assigned to variable annuity or life policyholders in the separate accounts and are not available to other creditors of the Company. The earnings of separate account investments are also assigned to the policyholders in the separate accounts, and are not guaranteed or supported by the other general investments of the Company. The Company earns mortality and expense risk fees from the separate account and assesses withdrawal charges in the event of early withdrawals. Separate account assets are carried at fair value. In order to provide for optimum policyholder returns and to allow for the replication of the investment performance of existing "cloned" mutual funds, the Company has periodically transferred capital to the separate account to provide for the initial purchase of investments in new portfolios. As additional funds have been received through policyholder deposits, the Company has periodically reduced its capital investment in the separate accounts. The Company's capital investment in the separate accounts as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, is presented in note 3. DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS The costs of acquiring new business which vary with and are directly related to the production of new business, principally commissions, premium taxes, sales costs, and certain policy issuance and underwriting costs, are deferred. These deferred costs are amortized in proportion to estimated future gross profits derived from investment income, realized gains and losses on sales of securities, unrealized securities gains and losses, interest credited to accounts, surrender fees, mortality costs, and policy maintenance expenses. The estimated gross profit streams are periodically reevaluated and the unamortized balance of deferred policy acquisition costs is adjusted to the amount that would have existed had the actual experience and revised estimates been known and applied from the inception of the policies and contracts. The amortization and adjustments resulting from unrealized gains and losses are not recognized currently in income but as an offset to the accumulated other comprehensive income component of shareholder's equity. The amortization period is the remaining life of the policies, which is estimated to be 20 years from the date of original policy issue.
The components of deferred policy acquisition costs are shown below. The effects on deferred policy acquisition costs of the consolidation of CFLIC (see note 9) with the Company are presented separately. 1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Deferred policy acquisition costs, beginning of period $ 84,326 49,833 14,468 Commissions and expenses deferred 50,044 46,142 34,803 Amortization (9,393) (6,307) (4,389) Deferred policy acquisition costs attributable to unrealized depreciation (appreciation) 6,996 (5,342) 1,561 Effects on deferred policy acquisition costs of CFLIC consolidation -- -- 3,390 ------------ ------------ ------------- Deferred policy acquisition costs, end of period $ 131,973 84,326 49,833 ============ ============ =============
PURCHASE-RELATED INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES In accordance with the purchase method of accounting for business combinations, two intangible assets and a future payable related to accrued purchase price consideration were established as of the purchase date. Present Value of Future Profits The Company established an intangible asset which represents the present value of future profits (PVFP) to be derived from both the purchased and transferred blocks of business. Certain estimates were utilized in the computation of this asset including estimates of future policy retention, investment income, interest credited to policyholders, surrender fees, mortality costs, and policy maintenance costs discounted at a pretax rate of 18% (12% net after tax). In addition, as the Company has the option of retaining its SPDA policies after they reach their next interest rate reset date and are recaptured from OakRe, a component of this asset represents estimates of future profits on recaptured business. This asset will be amortized in proportion to estimated future gross profits derived from investment income, realized gains and losses on sales of securities, unrealized securities appreciation and depreciation, interest credited to accounts, surrender fees, mortality costs, and policy maintenance expenses. The estimated gross profit streams are periodically reevaluated and the unamortized balance of present value of future profits will be adjusted to the amount that would have existed had the actual experience and revised estimates been known and applied from inception. The amortization and adjustments resulting from unrealized appreciation and depreciation are not recognized currently in income but as an offset to the accumulated other comprehensive income reflected as a separate component of shareholder's equity. The amortization period is the remaining life of the policies, which is estimated to be 20 years from the date of original policy issue. Based on current assumptions, amortization of the original in-force PVFP asset, expressed as a percentage of the original in-force asset, is projected to be 4.8%, 6.2%, 6.9%, 7.3%, and 7.1% for the years ended December 31, 1999 through 2003, respectively. Actual amortization incurred during these years may be more or less as assumptions are modified to incorporate actual results. During 1996, the Company adjusted its original purchase accounting to include a revised estimate of the ultimate renewal (recapture) rate. This adjustment resulted in a reallocation of the net purchased intangible asset between PVFP, goodwill, and the future payable. This final allocation and the resulting impact on inception to date amortization was recorded, in its entirety, in 1996.
The components of PVFP are shown below. The effects on PVFP of the consolidation of CFLIC (see note 9) with the Company are presented separately. 1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------- (IN THOUSANDS) PVFP - beginning of period $ 41,486 46,389 38,155 Net amortization (1,684) (1,577) (473) Present value of future profits attributable to unrealized depreciation (appreciation) 2,428 (3,326) 6,896 Adjustment due to revised push-down purchase accounting -- -- 698 Effects on present value of future profits of CFLIC consolidation -- -- 1,113 ------------ ------------ ------------- PVFP - end of period $ 42,230 41,486 46,389 ============ ============ =============
Goodwill Under the push-down method of purchase accounting, the excess of purchase price over the fair value of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired is established as an asset and referred to as goodwill. The Company has elected to amortize goodwill on the straight-line basis over a 20-year period. The components of goodwill are shown below. The effects on goodwill of the consolidation of CFLIC (see note 9) with the Company are presented separately. 1998 1997 1996 ----------- ------------ ------------ (IN THOUSANDS) Goodwill - beginning of period $ 19,717 20,849 23,358 Amortization (1,132) (1,132) (916) Adjustment due to revised push-down purchase accounting -- -- (3,626) Effects on goodwill of CFLIC consolidation -- -- 2,033 ----------- ------------ ------------ Goodwill - end of period $ 18,585 19,717 20,849 =========== ============ ============
Future Payable Pursuant to the financial reinsurance agreement with OakRe, the receivable from OakRe becomes due in installments when the SPDA policies reach their next crediting rate reset date. For any recaptured policies that continue in force into the next guarantee period, the Company will pay a commission to OakRe of 1.75% up to 40% of policy account values originally reinsured and 3.50% thereafter. On policies that are recaptured and subsequently exchanged to a variable annuity policy, the Company will pay a commission to OakRe of 0.50%. The Company has recorded a future payable that represents the present value of the anticipated future commission payments payable to OakRe over the remaining life of the financial reinsurance agreement discounted at an estimated borrowing rate of 6.50%. This liability represents a contingent purchase price payable for the policies transferred to OakRe on the purchase date and has been pushed down to the Company through the financial reinsurance agreement. The Company expects that this payable will be substantially extinguished by the end of the year 2000.
The components of this future payable are shown below. The effects on the future payable on the consolidation of CFLIC (see note 9) with the Company are presented separately. 1998 1997 1996 ----------- ------------ ---------- (IN THOUSANDS) Future payable - beginning of period $ 12,173 16,051 23,967 Interest added 629 959 943 Payments to OakRe (5,826) (4,837) (4,483) Adjustment due to revised push-down purchase accounting -- -- (5,059) Effects on goodwill of CFLIC consolidation -- -- 683 ----------- ------------ ----------- Future payable - end of period $ 6,976 12,173 16,051 =========== ============ ===========
DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES XFSI and GALIC agreed to file an election to treat the acquisition of the Company as an asset acquisition under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 338(h)(10). As a result of that election, the tax basis of the Company's assets as of the date of acquisition was revalued based upon fair market values. The principal effect of the election was to establish a tax asset on the tax-basis consolidated balance sheet of approximately $37.9 million for the value of the business acquired that is amortizable for tax purposes over ten to fifteen years. POLICYHOLDER DEPOSITS The Company recognizes its liability for policy amounts that are not subject to policyholder mortality nor longevity risk at the stated contract value, which is the sum of the original deposit and accumulated interest, less any withdrawals. The average weighted interest crediting rate on the Company's policyholder deposits as of December 31, 1998 was 5.86%. FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS Reserves are held for future policy benefits that subject the Company to risks to make payments contingent upon the continued survival of an individual or couple (longevity risk). These reserves are valued at the present value of estimated future benefits discounted for interest, expenses, and mortality. The assumed mortality is the 1983 Individual Annuity Mortality Tables discounted at 5.50% to 8.50%, depending upon year of issue. Current mortality benefits payable are recorded for reported claims and estimates of amounts incurred but not reported. PREMIUM REVENUE The Company recognizes premium revenue at the time of issue on annuity policies that subject it to longevity risks. Amounts collected on annuity policies not subject to longevity risk are recorded as increases in the policyholder deposits liability. For term and single premium variable life products, premiums are recognized as revenue when due. OTHER INCOME Other income consists primarily of policy surrender charges, servicing fee from OakRe for administrating their policies, and advisory fees received from GALIC for advisory services rendered on their individual annuity products. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The Company files a consolidated income tax return with its subsidiaries. Allocations of federal income taxes are based upon separate return calculations. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The following elements of the consolidated financial statements are most affected by the use of estimates and assumptions: - Investment valuation - Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs - Amortization of present value of future profits - Recoverability of goodwill The fair value of the Company's investments is subject to the risk that interest rates will change and cause a temporary increase or decrease in the liquidation value of debt securities. To the extent that fluctuations in interest rates cause the cash flows of assets and liabilities to change, the Company might have to liquidate assets prior to their maturity and recognize a gain or loss. Interest rate exposure for the investment portfolio is managed through asset/liability management techniques which attempt to control the risks presented by differences in the probable cash flows and reinvestment of assets with the timing of crediting rate changes in the Company's policies and contracts. Changes in the estimated prepayments of mortgage-backed securities also may cause retrospective changes in the amortization period of securities and the related recognition of income. The amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs is based on estimates of long-term future gross profits from existing policies. These gross profits are dependent upon policy retention and lapses, the spread between investment earnings and crediting rates, and the level of maintenance expenses. Changes in circumstances or estimates may cause retrospective adjustment to the periodic amortization expense and the carrying value of the deferred expense. In a similar manner, the amortization of PVFP is based on estimates of long-term future profits from existing policies when the Company was purchased by GALIC and policies recaptured from OakRe. These gross profits are dependent upon policy retention and lapses, the spread between investment earnings and crediting rates, and the level of maintenance expenses. Changes in circumstances or estimates may cause retrospective adjustment to the periodic amortization expense and the carrying value of the asset. The Company has considered the recoverability of goodwill and has concluded that no circumstances have occurred which would give rise to impairment of goodwill at December 31, 1998. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS SFAS No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, applies fair value disclosure practices with regard to financial instruments, both assets and liabilities, for which it is practical to estimate fair value. In cases where quoted market prices are not readily available, fair values are based on estimates that use present value or other valuation techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Although fair value estimates are calculated using assumptions that management believes are appropriate, changes in assumptions could cause these estimates to vary materially. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, might not be realized in the immediate settlement of the instruments. SFAS No. 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Because of this, and further because the value of a business is also based upon its anticipated earning power, the aggregate fair value amounts represented do not present the underlying value of the Company. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments: Cash and Cash Equivalents, Short-term Investments, and Accrued Investment Income The carrying value amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for these instruments approximate their fair values. Short-term debt securities are considered available-for-sale. Investment Securities and Mortgage Loans (Including Mortgage-backed Securities) Fair values of debt securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. For debt securities not actively traded, fair value estimates are obtained from independent pricing services. In some cases, such as private placements, certain mortgage-backed securities, and mortgage loans, fair values are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market rate applicable to the yield, credit quality, and maturity of the investments (see note 3 for fair value disclosures). Policy Loans Fair values of policy loans approximate carrying value as the interest rates on the majority of policy loans are reset periodically and, therefore, approximate current interest rates. Interest Rate Swaps and Financial Futures Contracts The fair value of interest rate swaps and financial futures contracts are the amounts the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date, thereby taking into account the current unrealized gains or losses of open contracts. Amounts are based on quoted market prices or pricing models or formulas using current assumptions (see note 5 for fair value disclosures). Investment Contracts The Company's policy contracts require the beneficiaries to commence receipt of payments by the later of age 85 or 10 years after purchase, and substantially all permit earlier surrenders, generally subject to fees and adjustments. Fair values for the Company's liabilities for investment type contracts (policyholder deposits) are estimated as the amount payable on demand. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the cash surrender value of policyholder deposits was approximately $103.2 million and $151.5 million less than their stated carrying value. Of the contracts permitting surrender, substantially all provide the option to surrender without fee or adjustment during the 30 days following reset of guaranteed crediting rates. The Company has not determined a practical method to determine the present value of this option. All of the Company's deposit obligations are fully guaranteed by the acquirer, GALIC, and the receivable from OakRe equal to the SPDA obligations is guaranteed by OakRe's parent, XFSI. REINSURANCE Effective in December 1998, the Company entered into a financing reinsurance agreement with GALIC. The reinsurance agreement provides that the Company will reinsurance a block of annuity business issued by GALIC on a 36% coinsurance basis. The Company recognized income and a corresponding receivable for $1.6 million related to the reinsurance agreement. The financing reinsurance agreement entered into with OakRe as a condition to the purchase of the Company does not meet the conditions for reinsurance accounting under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The net assets initially transferred to OakRe were established as a receivable and are subsequently increased as interest is accrued on the underlying liabilities and decreased as funds are transferred back to the Company when policies reach their crediting rate reset date or benefits are claimed. During 1997, the Company entered into a financing reinsurance agreement with RGA Reinsurance Company (RGA), an affiliate, related to certain of the Company's single premium deferred annuity products. The agreement contains recapture provisions, at the option of the Company, beginning in 1999 at a rate of 20% per year. Deposits recorded under the contract were approximately $219 million and $120 million and are reflected as policyholder deposits in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS On January 1, 1998, SFAS No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, became fully effective. Previously, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) had deferred until that date certain provisions of SFAS No. 125 pertaining to repurchase agreements, securities lending, and similar financing transactions. As a result of adopting the deferred provisions of SFAS No. 125, the Company has recognized on its December 31, 1998 consolidated balance sheet cash of approximately $25,923,000 related to collateral controlled on securities lending transactions and a corresponding obligation to return such collateral at the termination of such transactions. Restatement of prior period financial statements is not permitted. In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. SFAS No. 130 is effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided is required for comparative purposes. The Company has elected to adopt SFAS No. 130 in 1998. The adoption of SFAS No. 130 has no impact on the Company's consolidated net income or shareholder's equity. The Company's only component of accumulated other comprehensive income relates to unrealized appreciation and depreciation on debt and equity securities. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, was issued in June 1998. SFAS No. 133 requires all derivative instruments to be recorded on the balance sheet at estimated fair value. The Company's present accounting policies would apply such accounting treatment only to marketable securities as defined under SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and to off-balance sheet derivative instruments. SFAS No. 133 will broaden the definition of derivative instruments to include all classes of financial assets and liabilities. It also will require separate disclosure of identifiable derivative instruments embedded in hybrid securities. Change in the fair value of derivative instruments is to be recorded each period either in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is designed as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, on the type of hedge transaction. SFAS No. 133 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2000. The Company's management is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 133; at present, the management does not believe it will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. OTHER Certain 1997 and 1996 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1998 presentation.
(3) INVESTMENTS The Company's investments in debt and equity securities are considered available-for-sale and carried at estimated fair value, with the aggregate unrealized appreciation or depreciation being recorded as a separate component of shareholder's equity. The amortized cost, estimated fair value, and carrying value of investments at December 31, 1998 and 1997, are as follows: 1998 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- GROSS GROSS ESTIMATED AMORTIZED UNREALIZED UNREALIZED FAIR CARRYING COST GAINS LOSSES VALUE VALUE -------------- -------------- --------------- --------------- -------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Debt securities: U.S. Government treasuries $ 28,288 249 (84) 28,453 28,453 Collateralized mortgage obligations 303,577 3,067 (1,571) 305,073 305,073 Corporate, state, municipalities, and political subdivisions 1,043,333 19,736 (25,082) 1,037,987 1,037,987 -------------- -------------- --------------- --------------- -------------- Total debt securities 1,375,198 23,052 (26,737) 1,371,513 1,371,513 Equity securities 9,037 -- -- 9,037 9,037 Mortgage loans (net) 312,865 17,500 -- 330,365 312,865 Policy loans 26,295 -- -- 26,295 26,295 -------------- -------------- --------------- --------------- -------------- Total investments $ 1,723,395 40,552 (26,737) 1,737,210 1,719,710 ============== ============== =============== =============== ============== Company's beneficial interest in separate accounts $ 2 -- -- 2 2 ============== ============== =============== =============== ==============

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at December 31, 1998, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Maturities of mortgage-backed securities will be substantially shorter than their contractual maturity because they require monthly principal installments and mortgagees may prepay principal. 1998 ------------------------------ ESTIMATED AMORTIZED FAIR COST VALUE -------------- -------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Less than one year $ 55,653 54,942 Due after one year through five years 504,712 498,469 Due after five years through ten years 390,086 392,828 Due after ten years 121,170 120,201 Mortgage-backed securities 303,577 305,073 -------------- -------------- Total $ 1,375,198 1,371,513 ============== ==============
At December 31, 1998, approximately 89.8% of the Company's debt securities are investment grade or are nonrated but considered to be of investment grade. Of the 10.2% noninvestment grade debt securities, 7.4% are rated as BB, 2.4% are rated as B, and 0.4% are rated C and treated as impaired. The Company participates in a securities lending program whereby certain securities are loaned to third parties, primarily major brokerage firms. The agreement with a custodian bank facilitating such lending requires a minimum of 102% of the initial market value of the domestic loaned securities to be maintained in a collateral pool. To further minimize the credit risk related to this lending program, the Company monitors the financial condition of the counterparties to these agreements. Securities loaned at December 31, 1998 had market values totaling $25,247,750. Cash of $25,923,295 was held as collateral to secure this agreement. Income on the Company's security lending program in 1998 was immaterial. The Company had two impaired debt securities, of which one became nonincome producing on December 31, 1998. All debt securities were income producing at December 31, 1997.

Proceeds from sales, redemptions, and paydowns of investments in debt securities during 1998 were $486,264,174. Gross gains of $5,102,040 and gross losses of $6,601,099 were realized on those sales. Included in these amounts were $1,002,539 of gross gains and $6,011,305 of gross losses realized on the sale of noninvestment grade securities. Net realized losses include a 1998 impairment adjustment totaling approximately $100,000 related to two debt securities held by the Company. Proceeds from sales, redemptions, and paydowns of investments in debt securities during 1997 were $358,658,091. Gross gains of $1,765,242 and gross losses of $254,493 were realized on those sales. Included in these amounts were $681,159 of gross gains and $122,480 of gross losses realized on the sale of noninvestment grade securities. Net realized gains include a 1997 impairment adjustment totaling approximately $974,000 related to one debt security held by the Company. Proceeds from sales, redemptions, and paydowns of investments in debt securities during 1996 were $223,430,495. Gross gains of $1,158,518 and gross losses of $687,126 were realized on those sales. Included in these amounts were $28,969 of gross gains realized on the sale of noninvestment grade securities. Securities with a carrying value of approximately $6,400,000 at December 31, 1998 were deposited with government authorities as required by law. (4) SECURITIES GREATER THAN 10% OF SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY The Company does not have any individual security that exceeds 10% of shareholder's equity at December 31, 1998 and 1997. (5) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK A derivative financial instrument, in very general terms, refers to a security whose value is derived from the value of an underlying asset, reference rate, or index. The Company has a variety of reasons to use derivative instruments, such as to attempt to protect the Company against possible changes in the market value of its portfolio and to manage the portfolio's effective yield, maturity, and duration. All of the Company's holdings are marked to fair value monthly with the change in value reflected in unrealized appreciation/depreciation. Upon disposition, a realized gain or loss is recognized accordingly, except when the disposition closes a hedge. In this instance, the recognition of gain or loss is postponed until the disposal of the security underlying the option or futures contract. Summarized below are the specific types of derivative instruments used by the Company. INTEREST RATE SWAPS At December 31, 1998, the Company had two outstanding interest rate swap agreements which expire at 2002 and 2003. Under the agreements, the Company receives a fixed rate of 6.63% and 6.70% on a notional amount of $7 and $8 million, respectively, and pays a floating rate based on London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The estimated fair value of the agreements at December 31, 1998 was a net unrealized gain of approximately $0.6 million which is recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. At December 31, 1997, the Company has one outstanding interest rate swap agreement which expires in 2002. Under the agreement, the Company receives a fixed rate of 6.63% on $7.0 million and pays a floating rate based on LIBOR. At December 31, 1997, the estimated fair value of the agreement was immaterial. Under interest rate swaps, the Company agrees with counterparties to exchange, at specific intervals, the payments between floating and fixed-rate interest amounts calculated by reference to notional amounts. Net interest payments are recognized within net investment income in the consolidated statement of income. FUTURES In order to limit exposure to market fluctuations related to temporary seed money invested within the separate account, the Company entered into financial futures contracts during 1997 and 1996. No financial futures contracts were held during 1998. The Company recorded $-0-, $2,035,309, and $1,639,717 of losses from terminated contracts as a component of net investment income during 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company also recorded gains of $-0-, $2,636,999, and $2,007,720 as a component of net investment income from market appreciation on the underlying hedged securities within the separate account during 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. A futures contract is an agreement involving the delivery of a particular asset on a specified future date at an agreed upon price. The Company utilized futures on the S&P 500 index in 1997. Upon entering into futures contracts, the Company maintains, in a segregated account with its custodian, securities with a value equal to an agreed upon portion of the notional obligation under the futures contracts. During the period the futures contract is open, payments are received from or made to the broker daily based upon changes in the value of the contract with the related income or loss reflected in the consolidated statement of income as a contra to changes in fair value of the hedged securities. The Company is exposed to credit related risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to financial instruments but does not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations. It is the Company's policy to deal only with highly rated companies.
(6) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The components of comprehensive income are as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Net income $ 13,894 8,978 3,601 ------------ ------------ ------------- Other comprehensive income (loss), before tax - unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of debt and equity securities arising during period: Unrealized holding appreciation (depreciation) of debt and equity securities (12,971) 13,514 (14,387) Adjustment to deferred acquisition costs attributable to unrealized (appreciation) depreciation 6,228 (5,128) 1,614 Adjustment to PVFP attributable to unrealized (appreciation) depreciation 2,161 (3,193) 7,130 ------------ ------------ ------------- Total unrealized appreciation (depreciation) arising during period (4,582) 5,193 (5,643) Less reclassification adjustments for realized (gains) losses included in net income: Adjustment for (gains) losses included in net realized gains (losses) on sales of investments 1,600 (563) (472) Adjustment for (gains) losses included in amortization of PVFP (768) 214 53 Adjustment for (gains) losses included in amortization of deferred acquisition costs (267) 133 234 ------------ ------------ ------------- Total reclassification adjustments for (gains) losses included in net income 565 (216) (185) ------------ ------------ ------------- Other comprehensive income (loss) before related income tax expense (benefit) (5,147) 5,409 (5,458) Related income tax expense (benefit) (1,801) 1,893 (1,910) ------------ ------------ ------------- Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax (3,346) 3,516 (3,548) ------------ ------------ ------------- Comprehensive income $ 10,548 12,494 53 ============ ============ =============
(7) POSTRETIREMENT AND POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS The Company has no direct employees and no retired employees. All personnel used to support the operations of the Company are supplied by contract by Cova Life Management Company (CLMC), a wholly owned subsidiary of Cova Corporation. The Company is allocated a portion of certain health care and life insurance benefits for future retired employees of CLMC. In 1998, 1997, and 1996, the Company was allocated a portion of benefit costs including severance pay, accumulated vacations, and disability benefits. At December 31, 1998, CLMC had no retired employees nor any employees fully eligible for retirement and had no disbursements for such benefit commitments. The expense arising from these obligations is not material. (8) INCOME TAXES The Company will file a consolidated federal income tax return with its wholly owned subsidiaries, CFLIC and FCLIC. Amounts payable or recoverable related to periods before June 1, 1995 are subject to an indemnification agreement with XFSI, which has the effect that the Company is not at risk for any income taxes nor entitled to recoveries related to those periods, except for approximately $0.2 million of state income tax recoveries.
Income taxes are recorded in the consolidated statement of income and directly in certain shareholder's equity accounts. Income tax expense for the years ended December 31 is allocated as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ------------ ------------ ------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Statements of income: Operating income (excluding realized investment gains and losses) $ 3,906 5,464 2,493 Realized investment gains (losses) (533) 197 162 ------------ ------------ ------------- Income tax expense (benefit) included in the consolidated statements of income 3,373 5,661 2,655 Shareholder's equity - change in deferred federal income taxes related to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on securities (1,801) 1,893 (1,910) ------------ ------------ ------------- Total income tax expense $ 1,572 7,554 745 ============ ============ =============
The actual federal income tax expense differed from the expected tax expense computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to income before taxes on income as follows: 1998 1997 1996 ------------------ ------------------- -------------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Computed expected tax expense $ 6,043 35.0% $ 5,124 35.0% $ 2,190 35.0% State income taxes, net (8) -- (33) (0.2) 77 1.2 Amortization of intangible assets 396 2.3 396 2.7 320 5.1 Dividend received deduction - separate account (3,183) (18.5) -- -- -- -- Other 125 0.7 174 1.2 68 1.1 --------- -------- -------- ---------- --------- ---------- Total $ 3,373 19.5% $ 5,661 38.7% $ 2,655 42.4% ========= ======== ======== ========== ========= ==========
The tax effect of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 1998 and 1997 follows: 1998 1997 ----------- ------------ (IN THOUSANDS) Deferred tax assets: Policy reserves $ 31,003 25,312 Liability for commissions on recapture 2,896 4,715 Tax basis of intangible assets purchased 5,351 5,791 DAC "Proxy Tax" 20,619 14,594 Other deferred tax assets 2,690 31 ----------- ------------ Total deferred tax assets 62,559 50,443 ----------- ------------ Deferred tax liabilities: PVFP 11,013 9,734 Unrealized (depreciation) appreciation on investments (330) 1,472 Deferred policy acquisition costs 46,190 29,514 Other deferred tax liabilities 900 1,790 ----------- ------------ Total deferred tax liabilities 57,773 42,510 ----------- ------------ Net deferred tax assets $ 4,786 7,933 =========== ============
A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management believes the deferred tax assets will be fully realized in the future based upon expectation of the reversal of existing temporary differences, anticipated future earnings, and consideration of all other available evidence. Accordingly, no valuation allowance is established. (9) RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS On December 31, 1997, CLMC and Navisys Incorporated, affiliated companies, purchased certain assets of Johnson & Higgins/Kirke Van Orsdel, Inc. (J&H/KVI), an unaffiliated Delaware corporation, for $2,500,000. The purchased assets are the administrative and service systems that provide the marketing, underwriting, claims, and administrative functions for the Company's life and annuity products. On January 1, 1998, the purchased assets of J&H/KVI were merged into Cova Life Administrative Service Company (CLASC). Navisys Incorporated purchased 51% of CLASC, the remaining 49% was purchased by CLMC. The Company has entered into management, operations, and servicing agreements with its affiliated companies. The affiliated companies are CLMC, a Delaware corporation, which provides management services and the employees necessary to conduct the activities of the Company; and Conning Asset Management, which provides investment advice. Additionally, a portion of overhead and other corporate expenses are allocated by the Company's ultimate parent, GALIC. CLASC provides various services for the Company including underwriting, claims, and administrative functions. Expenses and fees paid to affiliated companies in 1998, 1997, and 1996 for the Company were $20,923,330, $9,400,517, and $6,618,303, respectively. In 1998 and 1997, the Company received approximately $3.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in advisory fees from GALIC related to advisory services on GALIC's individual annuity products. On December 31, 1996, Cova Corporation transferred its ownership of CFLIC to the Company. The transfer of ownership was recorded as additional paid-in capital and increased shareholder's equity on the Company's December 31, 1996 balance sheet by approximately $16.9 million. This change in direct ownership had no effect on the operations of either the Company or CFLIC as both entities had existed under common management and control prior to the December 31, 1996 transfer. Although CFLIC's balance sheet is fully consolidated with the Company's December 31, 1996 balance sheet, CFLIC's 1996 income and cash flows statements have not been consolidated with the Company's 1996 income or cash flows statements. However, CFLIC's December 31, 1996 cash balance of $6.7 million is included in the Company's consolidated cash flows statement. (10) STATUTORY SURPLUS AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTION GAAP differs in certain respects from the accounting practices prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities (statutory accounting principles). The major differences arise principally from the immediate expense recognition of policy acquisition costs and intangible assets for statutory reporting, determination of policy reserves based on different discount rates and methods, the recognition of deferred tax under GAAP reporting, the nonrecognition of financial reinsurance for GAAP reporting, the establishment of an asset valuation reserve as a contingent liability based on the credit quality of the Company's investment securities, and an interest maintenance reserve as an unearned liability to defer the realized gains and losses of fixed income investments presumably resulting from changes to interest rates and amortize them into income over the remaining life of the investment sold. In addition, adjustments to record the carrying values of debt securities and certain equity securities at fair value are applied only under GAAP reporting, and capital contributions in the form of notes receivable from an affiliated company are not recognized under GAAP reporting. Purchase accounting creates another difference as it requires the restatement of GAAP assets and liabilities to their estimated fair values and shareholder's equity to the net purchase price. Statutory accounting does not recognize the purchase method of accounting.
As of December 31, the differences between statutory capital and surplus and shareholder's equity determined in conformity with GAAP are as follows: 1998 1997 ------------- ------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Statutory capital and surplus $ 104,740 90,439 Reconciling items: GAAP investment valuation reserves (510) (237) Statutory asset valuation reserve 19,206 18,301 Statutory interest maintenance reserve 5,983 3,080 GAAP investment adjustments to fair value (3,685) 10,885 GAAP deferred policy acquisition costs 131,973 84,326 GAAP basis policy reserves (52,305) (39,921) GAAP deferred federal income taxes (net) 4,786 7,933 GAAP guarantee assessment adjustment (9,700) (9,700) GAAP goodwill 18,373 19,457 GAAP present value of future profits 42,230 41,486 GAAP future purchase price payable (6,976) (12,173) Other (2,029) (1,338) ------------- ------------- GAAP shareholder's equity $ 252,086 212,538 ============= =============
COVA FINANCIAL SERVICES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES (a wholly owned subsidiary of Cova Corporation) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 Statutory net losses for CFSLIC for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996 were $2,830,105, $9,816,357, and $13,575,788, respectively. The maximum amount of dividends which can be paid by State of Missouri insurance companies to shareholders without prior approval of the insurance commissioner is the greater of 10% of statutory earned surplus or statutory net gain from operations for the preceding year. Due to the 1998 statutory net loss and the Company's negative earned surplus at December 31, 1998, no dividends are permissible in 1999 without prior approval of the insurance commissioner. The National Association of Insurance Commissioners has developed certain risk based capital (RBC) requirements for life insurers. If prescribed levels of RBC are not maintained, certain actions may be required on the part of the Company or its regulators. At December 31, 1998, the Company's total adjusted capital and authorized control level RBC were $123,947,126 and $27,386,910, respectively. This level of adjusted capital qualifies under all tests. (11) GUARANTY FUND ASSESSMENTS The Company participates with life insurance companies licensed throughout the United States in associations formed to guarantee benefits to policyholders of insolvent life insurance companies. Under state laws, as a condition for maintaining the Company's authority to issue new business, the Company is contingently liable for its share of claims covered by the guaranty associations for insolvencies incurred through 1998, but for which assessments have not yet been determined nor assessed, to a maximum in each state generally of 2% of statutory premiums per annum in the given state. Most states then permit recovery of assets as a credit against premium of other state taxes over, most commonly, five years. In November 1998, the National Organization of Life and Health Guaranty Associations distributed a study of the major outstanding industry insolvencies, with estimates of future assessments by state. Based on this study, the Company has accrued a liability for approximately $9,700,000 in future assessments on insolvencies that occurred before December 31, 1998. Under the coinsurance agreement between the Company and OakRe (see note 1), OakRe is required to reimburse the Company for any future assessments that it pays which relate to insolvencies occurring prior to June 1, 1995. As such, the Company has recorded a receivable from OakRe for approximately $9,700,000. The Company paid approximately $1,500,000, $3,000,000, and $2,000,000 in guaranty fund assessments in 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively. These payments were substantially reimbursed by OakRe. At the same time, the Company is liable to OakRe for 80% of any future premium tax recoveries that are realized from any such assessments and may retain the remaining 20%. The credits retained for 1998 were not material. (12) SUBSEQUENT EVENT On January 31, 1999, the Company modified its financing reinsurance agreement with RGA related to the Company's certain single premium deferred annuity products. Under the modified financing reinsurance agreement, the Company will no longer reinsure any new single premium deferred annuity product policies with RGA. PART C OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 24.

ITEM 27. NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS As of February 24, 1999, there were 34,435 Non-Qualified Contract Owners and 8,057 Qualified Contract Owners. ITEM 28. INDEMNIFICATION The Bylaws of the Company (Article IV, Section 1) provide that: Each person who is or was a director, officer or employee of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including the heirs, executors, administrators or estate of such person) shall be indemnified by the corporation as of right to the full extent permitted or authorized by the laws of the State of Missouri, as now in effect and as hereafter amended, against any liability, judgment, fine, amount paid in settlement, cost and expenses (including attorney's fees) asserted or threatened against and incurred by such person in his capacity as or arising out of his status as a director, officer or employee of the corporation or if serving at the request of the corporation, as a director, officer or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnification provided by this bylaw provision shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any other bylaw or under any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, and shall not limit in any way any right which the corporation may have to make different or further indemnification with respect to the same or different persons or classes of persons. Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted directors and officers or controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing, or otherwise, the Company 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, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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.

The Company reserves the right to reject any Application or Purchase Payment. CHANGE IN PURCHASE PAYMENTS -- Subject to the minimum shown on the Contract Data Page, the Owner may increase or decrease or change the frequency of subsequent Purchase Payments. ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS -- The allocation of the initial Purchase Payment is elected by the Owner on the Application. Unless elected otherwise by the Owner, subsequent Purchase Payments are allocated in the same manner as the initial Purchase Payment. Allocation of the Purchase Payments is subject to the terms and conditions imposed by the Company. NO DEFAULT -- Unless the Owner makes a total withdrawal, this Contract will remain in force until the Annuity Date. This Contract will not be in default if subsequent Purchase Payments are not made. GENERAL ACCOUNT PROVISIONS GENERAL ACCOUNT VALUE -- The General Account Value at any time is equal to: 1) the Purchase Payments allocated to the General Account; plus 2) amounts transferred to the General Account; plus 3) interest credited to the General Account; less 4) any prior partial withdrawals and Withdrawal Charges deducted from the General Account; less 5) amounts transferred from the General Account; less 6) any applicable premium taxes, Contract Maintenance Charge or Transfer Fee. INTEREST TO BE CREDITED -- The Company guarantees that the interest rate credited to the General Account will not be less than the Minimum Guaranteed Interest Rate. The Minimum Guaranteed Interest Rate is 4% per year. The Company may credit additional interest at its sole discretion. CONTRACT VALUE PROVISION CONTRACT VALUE -- Each Purchase Payment is allocated to a Subaccount of the Variable Account and/or the General Account. A Purchase Payment allocated to a Subaccount of the Variable Account is converted into Accumulation Units. The number of Accumulation Units in a Subaccount credited to this Contract is determined by dividing the Purchase Payment allocated to that Subaccount by the Accumulation Unit Value for that Subaccount. The Contract Value on any Valuation Date is the sum of the Owner's interest in the General Account and the Subaccounts of the Variable Account. The value of the Owner's interest in a Subaccount is determined by multiplying the number of Accumulation Units attributable to that Subaccount by the Accumulation Unit Value for that Subaccount. Withdrawals will result in the cancellation of Accumulation Units in a Subaccount or a reduction of the General Account Value. VARIABLE ACCOUNT PROVISIONS THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT -- The Variable Account is a separate investment account of the Company. It is shown on the Contract Data Page. The Company has allocated a part of its assets for this and certain other contracts to the Variable Account. The assets of the Variable Account are the property of the Company. However, they are not chargeable with the liabilities arising out of any other business the Company may conduct. INVESTMENTS OF THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT -- Purchase Payments applied to the Variable Account are allocated to a Subaccount of the Variable Account. The assets of the Subaccount are allocated to the Eligible Investment(s) and the Portfolio(s), if any, within an Eligible Investment shown on the Contract Data Page. The Company may, from time to time, add additional Eligible Investments or Portfolios to those shown on the Contract Data Page. The Owner may be permitted to transfer Contract Values to the additional Eligible Investments or Portfolios. However, the right to make any transfer will be limited by the terms and conditions imposed by the Company. If the shares of any of the Eligible Investment(s) or any Portfolio(s) within the Eligible Investments become unavailable for investment by the Variable Account, or the Company's Board of Directors deems further investment in these shares inappropriate, the Company may substitute shares of another Eligible Investment for shares already purchased under this Contract. VALUATION OF ASSETS -- Assets of the Variable Account are valued at their fair market value in accordance with procedures of the Company. ACCUMULATION UNIT -- A Purchase Payment allocated to the Variable Account is converted into Accumulation Units for each elected Subaccount. The number of Accumulation Units in a Subaccount credited to this Contract is determined by dividing the Purchase Payment allocated to that Subaccount by the Accumulation Unit Value for that Subaccount as of the Valuation Period during which the Purchase Payment is allocated to the Subaccount. The Accumulation Unit Value for each Subaccount was arbitrarily set initially at $10. The Accumulation Unit Value for any later Valuation Period is determined by subtracting (b) from (a) and dividing the result by (c) where: (a) is the net result of 1) the assets of the Subaccount; i.e., the aggregate value of the underlying Eligible Investment shares held at the end of such Valuation Period; plus or minus 2) the cumulative charge or credit for taxes reserved which is determined by the Company to have resulted from the operation of the Subaccount of the Variable Account; (b) is the cumulative unpaid charge for the Mortality and Expense Risk Premium and for the Administrative Expense Charge which are shown on the Contract Data Page; and (c) is the number of Accumulation Units in a Subaccount of the Variable Account outstanding at the end of the Valuation Period. Withdrawals from a Subaccount will result in the cancellation of Accumulation Units in each Subaccount of the Variable Account. The Contract Value attributable to a Subaccount of the Variable Account is determined by multiplying the number of Accumulation Units attributable to the Subaccount by the Accumulation Unit Value for that Subaccount. An Accumulation Unit Value may increase or decrease from Valuation Period to Valuation Period. MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK PREMIUM --The Company deducts a Mortality and Expense Risk Premium from the Variable Account which is equal, on an annual basis, to the amount shown on the Contract Data Page. The Mortality and Expense Risk Premium compensates the Company for assuming the mortality and expense risks under this Contract. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE -- The Company deducts an Administrative Expense Charge from the Variable Account which is equal, on an annual basis, to the amount shown on the Contract Data Page. The Administrative Expense Charge compensates the Company for the costs associated with the administration of this Contract and the Variable Account. MORTALITY AND EXPENSE GUARANTEE -- The Company guarantees that the dollar amount of each Annuity Payment after the first Annuity Payment will not be affected by variations in mortality or expense experience. CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE DEDUCTION FOR CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE -- The Company deducts an annual Contract Maintenance Charge from the Contract Value by cancelling Accumulation Units from each applicable Subaccount or reducing the General Account Value to reimburse it for expenses relating to maintenance of this Contract. The Contract Maintenance Charge is shown on the Contract Data Page. The Contract Maintenance Charge will be deducted from the Contract Value on each Contract Anniversary while this Contract is in force. If a total withdrawal is made on other than a Contract Anniversary, the Contract Maintenance Charge will be deducted at the time of withdrawal. If the Annuity Date is not a Contract Anniversary, a prorata portion of the annual Contract Maintenance Charge will be deducted on the Annuity Date. After the Annuity Date, the Contract Maintenance Charge will be collected on a monthly basis and will result in a reduction of each Annuity Payment. TRANSFER PROVISION TRANSFERS -- Prior to the Annuity Date, the Owner may transfer all or part of an Account without the imposition of any fee or charge if there have been no more than 12 transfers made in the Contract Year. All transfers are subject to the following: 1) if more than 12 transfers have been made in the Contract Year, the Company will deduct a Transfer Fee. The Transfer Fee is shown on the Contract Data Page. The Transfer Fee will be deducted from the Account from which the transfer is made. However, if the entire interest in an Account is being transferred, the Transfer Fee will be deducted from the amount which is transferred. 2) the minimum amount which may be transferred is the lesser of: (A) $1,000; or (B) the Owner's entire interest in the Account. 3) transfers will be effected during the Valuation Period next following receipt by the Company of a written transfer request (or by telephone, if authorized) containing all required information. However, no transfer may be made effective within seven calendar days of the Annuity Date. 4) any transfer direction must clearly specify: (A) the amount which is to be transferred; and (B) the Accounts which are to be affected. 5) the Company reserves the right at any time and without prior notice to any party to terminate, suspend or modify the transfer privileges described above. If the Owner elects to use the transfer privilege, neither the Company nor its Annuity Service Office will be liable for transfers made in accordance with the Owner's instructions. DEATH BENEFIT DEATH OF ANNUITANT -- Upon death of the Annuitant prior to the Annuity Date, the Owner must designate a new Annuitant. If no designation is made within 30 days of the death of the Annuitant, the Owner will become the Annuitant. Upon death of the Annuitant after the Annuity Date, the Death Benefit, if any, will be as specified in the Annuity Option elected. DEATH OF OWNER -- Upon death of the Owner prior to the Annuity Date, the Death Benefit will be paid to the Beneficiary designated by the Owner. The Death Benefit will be the greater of: 1) the Purchase Payments less any Withdrawals and any applicable Withdrawal Charge; or 2) the Contract Value. The Death Benefit will be determined and paid as of the Valuation Period next following the date of receipt by the Company of both due proof of death and an election for a single sum payment or election under an Annuity Option. If a single sum payment is requested, the proceeds will be paid within seven (7) days of receipt of proof of death and the election. Payment under an Annuity Option may only be elected during the sixty-day period beginning with the date of receipt of proof of death or a single sum payment will be made to the Beneficiary at the end of the sixty-day period. The entire Death Benefit must be paid within five (5) years of the date of death unless: 1) the Beneficiary is the spouse of the Owner, in which event the Beneficiary will become the Owner and may elect that this Contract remain in effect; or 2) the Beneficiary is not the spouse of the Owner, in which event the Beneficiary may elect to have the Death Benefit payable under an Annuity Option over the lifetime of the Beneficiary beginning within 1 year of the date of death. PAYMENT OF DEATH BENEFIT -- The Company will require due proof of death before any Death Benefit is paid. Due proof of death will be: 1) a certified death certificate; 2) a certified decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death; 3) a written statement by a medical doctor who attended the deceased; or 4) any other proof satisfactory to the Company. Any Death Benefit will be paid in accordance with applicable law or regulations governing death benefit payments. ANNUITY PROVISIONS ANNUITY DATE -- The Annuity Date is elected by the Owner on the Application. The Annuity Date is shown on the Contract Data Page. The Annuity Date must be the first day of a calendar month and must be at least one month after the Issue Date. The Annuity Date may not be later than the first day of the calendar month following the Annuitant's 85th birthday. Prior to the Annuity Date, the Owner may, subject to the above, change the Annuity Date upon 30 days prior written notice to the Company. ELECTION OF ANNUITY OPTION -- The Annuity Option is elected by the Owner on the Application. If no Annuity Option is elected, Option 2 with 10 years guaranteed will automatically be applied. Prior to the Annuity Date, the Owner may, upon 30 days prior written notice to the Company, change the Annuity Option. FREQUENCY AND AMOUNT OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS -- Annuity Payments will be paid as monthly installments. The Contract Value on the Annuity Date is applied to the Annuity Table for the Annuity Option elected. If the amount of the Contract Value to be applied under an Annuity Option is less than $5,000, the Company reserves the right to make one lump sum payment in lieu of Annuity Payments. If the amount of any Annuity Payment would be or become less than $100, the Company will reduce the frequency of payments to an interval which will result in each payment being at least $100. The Annuity Tables are based on the 1983 Individual Annuity Mortality Tables with interest at the rate of 3% per year. ANNUITY OPTIONS -- The following Annuity Options or any other Annuity Option acceptable to the Company may be elected. Option 1 -- Life Annuity -- The Company will make monthly payments during the life of the Annuitant. Option 2 -- Life Annuity with 5, 10 or 20 Years Guaranteed -- The Company will make monthly Annuity Payments during the life of the Annuitant. If payments have been made for less than the guaranteed period at the death of the Annuitant, payments will continue to the Beneficiary for the remainder of the guaranteed period. However, the Beneficiary may elect to receive a single sum payment. A single sum payment will be equal to the present value of remaining payments as of the date of receipt of due proof of death commuted at the assumed investment rate of 3%. Option 3 -- Joint and Last Survivor Annuity -- The Company will make monthly Annuity Payments for the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and another person. At the death of either Payee, Annuity Payments will continue to be made to the survivor Payee. The survivor's Annuity Payments will be equal to 100%, 662/3% or 50% of the amount payable during the joint lifetime, as chosen. ANNUITY -- If all of the Contract Value on the seventh calendar day before the Annuity Date is allocated to the General Account, the Annuity will be paid as a Fixed Annuity. If all of the Contract Value on the Annuity Date is allocated to the Variable Account, the Annuity will be paid as a Variable Annuity. If the Contract Value on the Annuity Date is allocated to both the General Account and the Variable Account, the Annuity will be paid as a combination of a Fixed Annuity and a Variable Annuity to reflect the allocation between the Accounts. Variable Annuity Payments will reflect the investment performance of the Variable Account in accordance with the allocation of the Contract Value to the Subaccounts on the Annuity Date. The Contract Value will be applied to the applicable Annuity Tables. The Annuity Table used will depend upon the Annuity Option elected. The amount of the first payment for each $1,000 of Contract Value is shown in the Annuity Tables. If, as of the Annuity Date, the then current Annuity Option rates applicable to this class of contracts provide a first Annuity Payment greater than guaranteed under the same Annuity Option under this Contract, the greater payment will be made. FIXED ANNUITY -- The General Account Value on the day immediately preceding the Annuity Date will be used to determine the Fixed Annuity monthly payment. The first monthly Annuity Payment will be based upon the Annuity Option elected and the appropriate Annuity Option Table. VARIABLE ANNUITY -- Variable Annuity Payments: 1) are not predetermined as to dollar amount; and 2) will vary in amount with the net investment results of the applicable Subaccount(s) of the Variable Account at the Annuity Date. The dollar amount of Variable Annuity Payments for each applicable Subaccount after the first is determined as follows: 1) the dollar amount of the first Variable Annuity Payment is divided by the value of an Annuity Unit for each applicable Subaccount as of the Annuity Date. This establishes the number of Annuity Units for each monthly payment. The number of Annuity Units for each applicable Subaccount remains fixed during the Annuity Period; 2) the fixed number of Annuity Units per payment in each Subaccount is multiplied by the Annuity Unit Value for that Subaccount for the last Valuation Period of the month preceding the month for which the payment is due. This result is the dollar amount of the payment for each applicable Subaccount. The total dollar amount of each Variable Annuity Payment is the sum of all Subaccount Variable Annuity Payments reduced by the applicable Contract Maintenance Charge. ANNUITY UNIT -- The value of an Annuity Unit for each Subaccount of the Variable Account was arbitrarily set initially at $10. This was done when the first Eligible Investment shares were purchased. The Subaccount Annuity Unit Value at the end of any subsequent Valuation Period is determined by multiplying the Subaccount Annuity Unit Value for the immediately preceding Valuation Period by the net investment factor for the day for which the Annuity Unit Value is being calculated; and multiplying the result by 0.999919 for each day within the Valuation Period. NET INVESTMENT FACTOR -- The Net Investment Factor for any Subaccount of the Variable Account for any Valuation Period is determined by dividing: 1) the Accumulation Unit Value as of the close of the current Valuation Period; by 2) the Accumulation Unit Value as of the close of the immediately preceding Valuation Period. The Net Investment Factor may be greater or less than one, as the Annuity Unit Value may increase or decrease. TRANSFERS DURING THE ANNUITY PERIOD -- During the Annuity Period, the Owner may make transfers, by written request, as follows: 1) the Owner may make a transfer once each Contract Year between Subaccounts of the Variable Account. 2) the Owner may at any time, make a transfer from one or more Subaccounts to the General Account. The Owner may not make a transfer from the General Account to the Variable Account. The amount transferred to the General Account from a Subaccount of the Variable Account will be equal to the annuity reserve for the payee's interest in that Subaccount. The annuity reserve is the product of "(a)" multiplied by "(b)" multiplied by "(c)", where (a) is the number of Annuity Units representing the Owner's interest in the Subaccount per Annuity Payment; (b) is the Annuity Unit Value for the Subaccount; and (c) is the present value of $1.00 per payment period as of the Attained Age of the Owner at time of transfer for the Annuity Option, determined using the 1983 Individual Annuity Mortality Tables with interest at 3% per year. Amounts transferred to the General Account will be applied under the Annuity Option elected at the attained age of the Owner at the time of the transfer. All amounts and Annuity Unit Values will be determined as of the end of the Valuation Period preceding the effective date of the transfer. PROTECTION OF PROCEEDS -- No Payee may commute, encumber, alienate or assign any payments under this Contract. To the extent permitted by law, no payments will be subject to the debts, contracts or engagements of any Payee or to any judicial process to levy upon or attach the same for payment thereof. WITHDRAWAL PROVISIONS WITHDRAWALS -- Prior to the Annuity Date, the Owner may, upon written request received by the Company, make a total or partial withdrawal of the Withdrawal Value. A withdrawal will result in the cancellation of Accumulation Units from each applicable Subaccount of the Variable Account or a reduction in the General Account Value in the ratio that the Subaccount Value and/or the General Account Value bears to the total Contract Value. The Owner must specify in writing in advance which units are to be cancelled or values are to be reduced if other than the above method is desired. The Company will pay the amount of any withdrawal within seven (7) days of receipt of a request in good order unless the Suspension Or Deferral Of Payments Or Transfers From The Variable Account provision or the Deferral Of Payments Or Transfers From The General Account provision is in effect. Each partial withdrawal must be for an amount which is not less than $1,000 or, if smaller, the remaining Withdrawal Value. The remaining Withdrawal Value must be at least $1,000 after a partial withdrawal is completed. WITHDRAWAL CHARGE -- A Withdrawal Charge may be deducted in the event of a withdrawal of all or a portion of the Contract Value. The Withdrawal Charge is imposed on a withdrawal of Contract Value attributable to a Purchase Payment within five (5) years of receipt. The Withdrawal Charge, if any, is equal to 5% of the Purchase Payment withdrawn. For a partial withdrawal, the Withdrawal Charge will be deducted from the remaining Withdrawal Value, if sufficient, or from the amount withdrawn. The Withdrawal Charge will be deducted by cancelling Accumulation Units from each applicable Subaccount or reducing the General Account Value in the ratio that the Subaccount Value and/ or General Account bears to the total Contract Value. The Owner must specify in writing in advance if other than the above method of cancellation is desired. WAIVER OF WITHDRAWAL CHARGE -- A withdrawal of 10% of the aggregate Purchase Payments may be made free from the Withdrawal Charge on a non-cumulative basis as follows 1) Once each Contract Year after the first Contract Year, as a single sum payment if the Contract Value prior to the withdrawal exceeds $5,000; or 2) At any time, subject to any conditions and fees the Company may impose, as equal periodic installments. SUSPENSION OR DEFERRAL OF PAYMENTS OR TRANSFERS FROM THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT The Company reserves the right to suspend or postpone payments for a withdrawal or transfer for any period when: 1) the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend and holiday closings); 2) trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; 3) an emergency exists as a result of which disposal of securities held in the Variable Account is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the Variable Account's net assets; or 4) during any other period when the Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, so permits for the protection of Owners; provided that applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission will govern as to whether the conditions described in (2) and (3) exist. DEFERRAL OF PAYMENTS OR TRANSFERS FROM THE GENERAL ACCOUNT The Company reserves the right to defer payment for a withdrawal or transfer from the General Account for the period permitted by law but not for more than six months after written election is received by the Company. RESERVES, VALUES AND BENEFITS All reserves are greater to or equal to those required by statute.

The effective date of this Endorsement is the Issue Date of the Contract. The Contract is amended in the following manner: 1) The DEATH OF OWNER section of the DEATH BENEFIT provision is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: "DEATH OF OWNER--Upon death of the Owner prior to the Annuity Date, the Death Benefit will be paid to the Beneficiary designated by the Owner. Before the Owner, or a Joint Owner, attains age 80, the Death Benefit will be the greatest of: 1. the Purchase Payments less any Withdrawals and any applicable Withdrawal Charge; or 2. the Contract Value determined on the Valuation Period next following the date of receipt by the Company of both due proof of death and an election for payment; or 3. the greatest adjusted Contract Value. The greatest adjusted Contract Value is evaluated at each Contract Anniversary prior to the death of the Owner or Joint Owner and on each day a Purchase Payment or Withdrawal is made. On the Contract Anniversary, if the current Contract Value exceeds the greatest adjusted Contract Value, the greatest adjusted Contract Value will be increased to the current Contract Value. If a Purchase Payment is made, the amount of the Purchase Payment will increase the greatest adjusted Contract Value. If a Withdrawal is made, the greatest adjusted Contract Value will be reduced by the sum of the Withdrawal Amount and any associated Withdrawal Charges divided by the Contract Value immediately prior to the Withdrawal, multiplied by the greatest adjusted Contract Value immediately prior to the Withdrawal. After the Owner, or a Joint Owner, attains age 80, the Death Benefit will be the greatest of: 1. the Purchase Payments less any Withdrawals and any applicable Withdrawal Charge; or 2. the Contract Value determined on the Valuation Period next following the date of receipt by the Company of both due proof of death and an election for payment; or 3. the greatest adjusted Contract Value. The greatest adjusted Contract Value is evaluated at each Contract Anniversary on or before the Owner's, or a Joint Owner's, 80th birthday and on each day a Purchase Payment or Withdrawal is made. On the Contract Anniversary on or before the Owner's or a Joint Owner's 80th birthday, if the current Contract Value exceeds the greatest adjusted Contract Value, the greatest adjusted Contract Value will be increased to the current Contract Value. If a Purchase Payment is made, the amount of the Purchase Payment will increase the greatest adjusted Contract Value. If a Withdrawal is made, the greatest adjusted Contract Value will be reduced by the sum of the Withdrawal Amount and any associated Withdrawal Charges divided by the Contract Value immediately prior to the Withdrawal, multiplied by the greatest adjusted Contract Value immediately prior to the Withdrawal. If Joint Owners are named: 1) The Death Benefit is determined based on the age of the oldest Joint Owner; and CL-3059 (2/98) 2) The Death Benefit is payable upon the first death of a Joint Owner. The Death Benefit will be paid following receipt by the Company of both due proof of death and an election for a single sum payment or election under an Annuity Option. If a single sum payment is requested, the proceeds will be paid within seven (7) days of receipt of proof of death and the election. Payment under an Annuity Option may only be elected during the sixty-day period beginning with the date of receipt of proof of death or a single sum payment will be made to the Beneficiary at the end of the sixty-day period. The entire Death Benefit must be paid within five (5) years of the date of death unless the Beneficiary elects to have the Death Benefit payable under an Annuity option over the Beneficiary's lifetime or for a period not extending beyond the Beneficiary's life expectancy, beginning within one (1) year of the date of death. If the Beneficiary is the spouse of the Owner, the spouse may elect to become the Owner and continue this Contract in effect at the then current Contract Value." 2) The WITHDRAWALS section of the WITHDRAWAL provision is amended to include the following paragraph: "The Death Benefit is reduced when withdrawals are made. The amount of the reduction is described in the DEATH OF OWNER section." All other terms and conditions of the Contract remain unchanged.

W I T N E S S E T H: WHEREAS, the Trust is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and has an effective registration statement relating to the offer and sale of the various series of its shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act" ); WHEREAS, the Trust and the Underwriter desire that Trust shares be used as an investment vehicle for separate accounts established for variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts to be offered by life insurance companies which have entered into fund participation agreements with the Trust (the "Participating Insurance Companies"); WHEREAS, the beneficial interest in the Trust is divided into several series of shares, each series representing an interest in a particular managed portfolio of securities and other assets, and certain of those series, named in Schedule B, (the "Portfolios") are to be made available for purchase by the Company for the Accounts; and WHEREAS, the Trust has received an order from the SEC, dated November 16, 1993 (File No. 812-8546), granting Participating Insurance Companies and their separate accounts exemptions from the provisions of Sections 9(a), 13(a), 15(a) and 15(b) of the 1940 Act, and Rules 6e-2 (b) (15) and 6e-3 (T) (b) (15) thereunder, to the extent necessary to permit shares of the Trust to be sold to and held by variable annuity and variable life insurance separate accounts of both affiliated and unaffiliated life insurance companies and certain qualified pension and retirement plans (the "Shared Funding Exemptive Order"); WHEREAS, the Company has registered or will register each Account as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act unless an exemption from registration under the 1940 Act is available and the Trust has been so advised; and has registered or will register certain variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, listed on Schedule C attached hereto, under which the portfolios are to be made available as investment vehicles (the "Contracts") under the 1933 Act unless such interests under the Contracts in the Accounts are exempt from registration under the 1933 Act and the Trust has been so advised; WHEREAS, each Account is a duly organized, validly existing segregated asset account, established by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, on the date shown for such account on Schedule A hereto, to set aside and invest assets attributable to one or more Contracts; and WHEREAS, the Underwriter is registered as a broker dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and is a member in good standing of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"); and WHEREAS, each investment adviser listed on Schedule B (each, an "Adviser") is duly registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended ("Advisers Act") and any applicable state securities laws; WHEREAS, to the extent permitted by applicable insurance laws and regulations, the Company intends to purchase shares in the Portfolios on behalf of each Account to fund certain of the aforesaid Contracts and the Underwriter is authorized to sell such shares to unit investment trusts such as each Account at net asset value; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises, the parties agree as follows: ARTICLE I. Purchase and Redemption of Trust Portfolio Shares 1.1. For purposes of this Article I, the Company shall be the Trust's agent for receipt of purchase orders and requests for redemption relating to each Portfolio from each Account, provided that the Company notifies the Trust of such purchase orders and requests for redemption by 9:00 a.m. Eastern time on the next following Business Day, as defined in Section 1.3. 1.2. The Trust agrees to make shares of the Portfolios available to the Accounts for purchase at the net asset value per share next computed after receipt of a purchase order by the Trust (or its agent), as established in accordance with the provisions of the then current prospectus of the Trust describing Portfolio purchase procedures on those days on which the Trust calculates its net asset value pursuant to rules of the SEC, and the Trust shall use its best efforts to calculate such net asset value on each day on which the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open for trading. The Company will transmit orders from time to time to the Trust for the purchase of shares of the Portfolios. The Trustees of the Trust (the "Trustees") may refuse to sell shares of any Portfolio to any person, or suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Portfolio if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or if, in the sole discretion of the Trustees acting in good faith and in light of their fiduciary duties under federal and any applicable state laws, such action is deemed in the best interests of the shareholders of such Portfolio. 1.3 The Company shall submit payment for the purchase of shares of a Portfolio on behalf of an Account no later than the close of business on the next Business Day after the Trust receives the purchase order. Payment shall be made in federal funds transmitted by wire to the Trust or its designated custodian. Upon receipt by the Trust of the federal funds so wired, such funds shall cease to be the responsibility of the Company and shall become the responsibility of the Trust for this purpose. "Business Day" shall mean any day on which the NYSE is open for trading and on which the Trust calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC. 1.4 The Trust will redeem for cash any full or fractional shares of any Portfolio, when requested by the Company on behalf of an Account, at the net asset value next computed after receipt by the Trust (or its agent) of the request for redemption, as established in accordance with the provisions of the then current prospectus of the Trust describing Portfolio redemption procedures. The Trust shall make payment for such shares in the manner established from time to time by the Trust. Redemption with respect to a Portfolio will normally be paid to the Company for an Account in federal funds transmitted by wire to the Company before the close of business on the next Business Day after the receipt of the request for redemption. Such payment may be delayed if, for example, the Portfolio's cash position so requires or if extraordinary market conditions exist, but in no event shall payment be delayed for a greater period than is permitted by the 1940 Act. 1.5 Payments for the purchase of shares of the Trust's Portfolios by the Company under Section 1.3 and payments for the redemption of shares of the Trust's Portfolios under Section 1.4 may be netted against one another on any Business Day for the purpose of determining the amount of any wire transfer on that Business Day. 1.6 Issuance and transfer of the Trust's Portfolio shares will be by book entry only. Stock certificates will not be issued to the Company or the Account. Portfolio Shares purchased from the Trust will be recorded in the appropriate title for each Account or the appropriate subaccount of each Account. 1.7 The Trust shall furnish, on or before the ex-dividend date, notice to the Company of any income dividends or capital gain distributions payable on the shares of any Portfolio of the Trust. The Company hereby elects to receive all such income dividends and capital gain distributions as are payable on a Portfolio's shares in additional shares of the Portfolio. The Trust shall notify the Company of the number of shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions. 1.8 The Trust shall calculate the net asset value of each Portfolio on each Business Day, as defined in Section 1.3. The Trust shall make the net asset value per share for each Portfolio available to the Company or its designated agent on a daily basis as soon as reasonably practical after the net asset value per share is calculated (normally by 6:30 p.m. Eastern time) and shall use reasonable efforts to make such net asset value per share available by 7:00 p.m. Eastern time each Business Day. 1.9 The Trust agrees that its Portfolio shares will be sold only to Participating Insurance Companies and their separate accounts and to certain qualified pension and retirement plans as provided for under Section 817(h)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code"), and to the extent permitted by the Shared Funding Exemptive Order. No shares of any Portfolio will be sold directly to the general public. The Company agrees that it will use Trust shares only for the purposes of funding the Contracts through the Accounts listed in Schedule A, as amended from time to time. 1.10 The Company agrees that all net amounts available under the Contracts shall be invested in the Trust, in such other Funds advised by an Adviser or its affiliates as may be mutually agreed to in writing by the parties hereto, or in the Company's general account, provided that such amounts may also be invested in an investment company other than the Trust if: (a) such other investment company, or series thereof, has investment objectives or policies that are substantially different from the investment objectives and policies of the Portfolios; or (b) the Company gives the Trust and the Underwriter 45 days written notice of its intention to make such other investment company available as a funding vehicle for the Contracts; or (c) such other investment company is available as a funding vehicle for the Contracts at the date of this Agreement and the Company so informs the Trust and the Underwriter prior to their signing this Agreement (a list of such investment companies appearing on Schedule D to this Agreement); or (d) the Trust or Underwriter consents to the use of such other investment company. 1.11 The Trust agrees that all Participating Insurance Companies shall have the obligations and responsibilities regarding pass-through voting and conflicts of interest corresponding to those contained in Section 2.10 and Article IV of this Agreement. 1.12 Each party to this Agreement shall have the right to rely on information or confirmations provided by any other party (or by any affiliate of any other party), and shall not be liable in the event that an error results from any incorrect information or confirmations supplied by any other party. If an error is made in reliance upon incorrect information or confirmations, any amount required to make a Contract owner's account whole shall be borne by the party who provided the incorrect information or confirmation. ARTICLE II. Obligations of the Parties; Fees and Expenses 2.1 The Trust shall prepare and be responsible for filing with the SEC and any state regulators requiring such filing all shareholder reports, notices, proxy materials (or similar materials such as voting instruction solicitation materials), prospectuses and statements of additional information of the Trust. The Trust shall bear the costs of registration and qualification of its shares of the Portfolios, preparation and filing of the documents listed in this Section 2.1 and all taxes to which an issuer is subject on the issuance and transfer of its shares. 2.2 The Trust or its designee shall provide the Company, free of charge, with as many copies of the current prospectus (or prospectuses), statements of additional information, annual and semi-annual reports and proxy statements for the shares of the portfolios as the Company may reasonably request for distribution to existing Contract owners whose Contracts are funded by such shares, for non-marketing purposes. The Trust or its designee shall provide the Company, at the Company's expense, with as many copies of the current prospectus (or prospectuses) for the shares as the Company may reasonably request for distribution to prospective purchasers of the Contracts. If requested by the Company, the Trust or its designee shall provide such documents in a "camera ready," digital or other form, and other assistance as is reasonably necessary in order for the parties hereto once a year (or more frequently if necessary) to have the prospectus for the Contracts and the prospectus (or prospectuses) for the Trust shares printed together in one document. The expenses of printing such a combined document for existing Contract owners for non-marketing purposes will be apportioned between the Company and the Trust in proportion to the number of pages of the Contract, the Trust prospectus, and the prospectus of other funds, although such expenses shall not exceed the regular costs for printing the Trust prospectus. The Trust shall bear the cost of printing the Trust prospectus portion of such document for distribution only to owners of existing Contracts, for non-marketing purposes, funded by the Trust shares and the Company shall bear the expense of printing the portion of such documents relating to the Separate Account. The Company shall bear all printing expenses of such combined documents where used for distribution to prospective purchasers or to owners of existing Contracts not funded by the shares. 2.3 The Company shall bear the costs of distributing proxy materials (or similar materials such as voting solicitation instructions), prospectuses and statements of additional information to Contract owners. The Company assumes sole responsibility for ensuring that such materials are delivered to Contract owners in accordance with applicable federal and state securities laws. 2.4 If and to the extent required by law, the Company shall: (i) solicit voting instructions from Contract owners; (ii) vote the Trust shares in accordance with the instructions received from Contract owners; and (iii) vote Trust shares for which no instructions have been received in the same proportion as Trust shares of such Portfolio for which instructions have been received; so long as and to the extent that the SEC continues to interpret the 1940 Act to require pass-through voting privileges for variable contract owners. The Company reserves the right to vote Trust shares held in any segregated asset account in its own right, to the extent permitted by law. 2.5 Except as provided in section 2.7, the Company shall not use any designation comprised in whole or part of the names or marks "Franklin" or "Templeton" or any other Trademark relating to the Trust or Underwriter without prior written consent, and upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Company shall cease all use of any such name or mark as soon as reasonably practicable. 2.6 Except as provided in section 2.7, the Trust or the Underwriter shall not use any designation comprised in whole or in part of the name or mark "COVA" or any other Trademark relating to the Company without prior written consent, and upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Trust or the Underwriter shall cease all use of such name or mark as soon as reasonably practicable. 2.7 The Company shall furnish, or cause to be furnished to the Trust or its designee, at least one complete copy of each registration statement, prospectus, statement of additional information, retirement plan disclosure information or other disclosure documents or similar information, as applicable (collectively "disclosure documents"), as well as any report, solicitation for voting instructions, sales literature and other promotional materials, and all amendments to any of the above that relate to the Contracts or the Accounts prior to its first use. The Company shall furnish, or shall cause to be furnished, to the Trust or its designee each piece of sales literature or other promotional material in which the Trust or an Adviser is named, at least 15 Business Days prior to its use. No such material shall be used if the Trust or its designee reasonably objects to such use within five Business Days after receipt of such material. For purposes of this paragraph, "sales literature or other promotional material" includes, but is not limited to, portions of the following that use any Trademark related to the Trust or Underwriter or refer to the Trust or affiliates of the Trust: advertisements (such as material published or designed for use in a newspaper, magazine or other periodical, radio, television, telephone or tape recording, videotape display, signs or billboards, motion pictures or electronic communication or other public media), sales literature (i.e., any written communication distributed or made generally available to customers or the public, including brochures, circulars, research reports, market letters, form letters, seminar texts, reprints or excerpts or any other advertisement, sales literature or published article or electronic communication), educational or training materials or other communications distributed or made generally available to some or all agents or employees, and disclosure documents, shareholder reports and proxy materials. The Trust shall furnish or cause to be furnished, to the Company or its designee each piece of sales literature or other promotional material (as defined above) in which the Company is named, at least 15 Business Days prior to its use. No such material shall be used if the Company or its designee reasonably objects to such use within five Business Days after receipt of such material. 2.8 The Company and its agents shall not give any information or make any representations or statements on behalf of the Trust or concerning the Trust, the Underwriter or an Adviser in connection with the sale of the Contracts other than information or representations contained in and accurately derived from the registration statement or prospectus for the Trust shares (as such registration statement and prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time), annual and semi-annual reports of the Trust, Trust-sponsored proxy statements, or in sales literature or other promotional material approved by the Trust or its designee, except as required by legal process or regulatory authorities or with the written permission of the Trust or its designee. 2.9 The Trust shall use its best efforts to provide the Company, on a timely basis, with such information about the Trust, the Portfolios and each Adviser, in such form as the Company may reasonably require, as the Company shall reasonably request in connection with the preparation of disclosure documents and annual and semi-annual reports pertaining to the Contracts. 2.10 The Trust shall not give any information or make any representations or statements on behalf of the Company or concerning the Company, the Accounts or the Contracts other than information or representations contained in and accurately derived from disclosure documents for the Contracts (as such disclosure documents may be amended or supplemented from time to time), or in materials approved by the Company for distribution including sales literature or other promotional materials, except as required by legal process or regulatory authorities or with the written permission of the Company. 2.11 So long as, and to the extent that, the SEC interprets the 1940 Act to require pass-through voting privileges for Contract owners, the Company will provide pass-through voting privileges to Contract owners whose Contract values are invested, through the registered Accounts, in shares of one or more Portfolios of the Trust. The Trust shall require all Participating Insurance Companies to calculate voting privileges in the same manner and the Company shall be responsible for assuring that the Accounts calculate voting privileges in the manner established by the Trust. With respect to each registered Account, the Company will vote shares of each Portfolio of the Trust held by a registered Account and for which no timely voting instructions from Contract owners are received in the same proportion as those shares held by that registered Account for which voting instructions are received. The Company and its agents will in no way recommend or oppose or interfere with the solicitation of proxies for Portfolio shares held to fund the Contracts without the prior written consent of the Trust, which consent may be withheld in the Trust's sole discretion. 2.12 The Trust and Underwriter shall pay no fee or other compensation to the Company under this Agreement except as provided on Schedule E, if attached. Nevertheless, the Trust or the Underwriter or an affiliate may make payments (other than pursuant to a Rule 12b-1 Plan) to the Company or its affiliates or to the Contracts' underwriter in amounts agreed to by the Underwriter in writing and such payments may be made out of fees otherwise payable to the Underwriter or its affiliates, profits of the Underwriter or its affiliates, or other resources available to the Underwriter or its affiliates. ARTICLE III. Representations and Warranties 3.1 The Company represents and warrants that it is an insurance company duly organized and in good standing under the laws of the State of Missouri and that it has legally and validly established each Account as a segregated asset account under such law as of the date set forth in Schedule A. 3.2 The Company represents and warrants that, with respect to each Account, (1) the Company has registered or, prior to any issuance or sale of the Contracts, will register the Account as a unit investment trust in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act to serve as a segregated asset account for the Contracts, or (2) if the Account is exempt from registration as an investment company under Section 3(c) of the 1940 Act, the Company will make every effort to maintain such exemption and will notify the Trust and the Adviser immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such exemption no longer applies or might not apply in the future. 3.3 The Company represents and warrants that, with respect to each Contract, (1) the Contract will be registered under the 1933 Act, or (2) if the Contract is exempt from registration under Section 3(a)(2) of the 1933 Act or under Section 4(2) and Regulation D of the 1933 Act, the Company will make every effort to maintain such exemption and will notify the Trust and the Adviser immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such exemption no longer applies or might not apply in the future. The Company further represents and warrants that the Contracts will be sold by broker-dealers, or their registered representatives, who are registered with the SEC under the 1934 Act and who are members in good standing of the NASD; the Contracts will be issued and sold in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal and state laws; and the sale of the Contracts shall comply in all material respects with state insurance suitability requirements. 3.4 The Trust represents and warrants that it is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Massachusetts and that it does and will comply in all material respects with the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. 3.5 The Trust represents and warrants that the Portfolio shares offered and sold pursuant to this Agreement will be registered under the 1933 Act and the Trust shall be registered under the 1940 Act prior to and at the time of any issuance or sale of such shares. The Trust shall amend its registration statement under the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act from time to time as required in order to effect the continuous offering of its shares. The Trust shall register and qualify its shares for sale in accordance with the laws of the various states only if and to the extent deemed advisable by the Trust or the Underwriter. 3.6 The Trust represents and warrants that the investments of each Portfolio will comply with the diversification requirements for variable annuity, endowment or life insurance contracts set forth in Section 817(h) of the Code, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including without limitation Treasury Regulation 1.817-5, and will notify the Company immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing any Portfolio has ceased to comply or might not so comply and will in that event immediately take all reasonable steps to adequately diversify the Portfolio to achieve compliance within the grace period afforded by Regulation 1.817-5. 3.7 The Trust represents and warrants that it is currently qualified as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code, that it will maintain such qualification and will notify the Company immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing it has ceased to so qualify or might not so qualify in the future. 3.8 The Trust represents and warrants that should it ever desire to make any payments to finance distribution expenses pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Trustees, including a majority who are not "interested persons" of the Trust under the 1940 Act ( "disinterested Trustees" ), will formulate and approve any plan under Rule 12b-1 to finance distribution expenses. 3.9 The Trust represents and warrants that it, its directors, officers, employees and others dealing with the money or securities, or both, of a Portfolio shall at all times be covered by a blanket fidelity bond or similar coverage for the benefit of the Trust in an amount not less that the minimum coverage required by Rule 17g-1 or other regulations under the 1940 Act. Such bond shall include coverage for larceny and embezzlement and be issued by a reputable bonding company. 3.10 The Company represents and warrants that all of its directors, officers, employees, investment advisers, and other individuals or entities dealing with the money and/or securities of the Trust are and shall be at all times covered by a blanket fidelity bond or similar coverage for the benefit of the Trust, in an amount not less than $5 million. The aforesaid bond shall include coverage for larceny and embezzlement and shall be issued by a reputable bonding company. The Company agrees to make all reasonable efforts to see that this bond or another bond containing these provisions is always in effect, and agrees to notify the Trust and the Underwriter in the event that such coverage no longer applies. 3.11 The Underwriter represents that each Adviser is duly organized and validly existing under applicable corporate law and that it is registered and will during the term of this Agreement remain registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act. 3.12 The Underwriter represents that it is a member in good standing of the NASD and is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC. The Underwriter represents that it will sell and distribute the shares in accordance with all applicable state and federal securities laws, including without limitation the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act and the 1940 Act. 3.13 The Trust currently intends for one or more Classes to make payments to finance its distribution expenses, including service fees, pursuant to a Plan adopted under Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act ("Rule 12b-1"), although it may determine to discontinue such practice in the future. To the extent that any Class of the Trust finances its distribution expenses pursuant to a Plan adopted under Rule 12b-1, the Trust undertakes to comply with any then current SEC and SEC staff interpretations concerning Rule 12b-1 or any successor provisions. ARTICLE IV. Potential Conflicts 4.1 The parties acknowledge that a Portfolio's shares may be made available for investment to other Participating Insurance Companies. In such event, the Trustees will monitor the Trust for the existence of any material irreconcilable conflict between the interests of the contract owners of all Participating Insurance Companies. An irreconcilable material conflict may arise for a variety of reasons, including: (a) an action by any state insurance regulatory authority; (b) a change in applicable federal or state insurance, tax, or securities laws or regulations, or a public ruling, private letter ruling, no-action or interpretative letter, or any similar action by insurance, tax, or securities regulatory authorities; (c) an administrative or judicial decision in any relevant proceeding; (d) the manner in which the investments of any Portfolio are being managed; (e) a difference in voting instructions given by variable annuity contract and variable life insurance contract owners; or (f) a decision by an insurer to disregard the voting instructions of contract owners. The Trust shall promptly inform the Company of any determination by the Trustees that an irreconcilable material conflict exists and of the implications thereof. 4.2 The Company agrees to promptly report any potential or existing conflicts of which it is aware to the Trustees. The Company will assist the Trustees in carrying out their responsibilities under the Shared Funding Exemptive Order by providing the Trustees with all information reasonably necessary for the Trustees to consider any issues raised including, but not limited to, information as to a decision by the Company to disregard Contract owner voting instructions. All communications from the Company to the Trustees may be made in care of the Trust. 4.3 If it is determined by a majority of the Trustees, or a majority of the disinterested Trustees, that a material irreconcilable conflict exists that affects the interests of Contract owners, the Company shall, in cooperation with other Participating Insurance Companies whose contract owners are also affected, at its own expense and to the extent reasonably practicable (as determined by the Trustees) take whatever steps are necessary to remedy or eliminate the irreconcilable material conflict, which steps could include: (a) withdrawing the assets allocable to some or all of the Accounts from the Trust or any Portfolio and reinvesting such assets in a different investment medium, including (but not limited to) another Portfolio of the Trust, or submitting the question of whether or not such withdrawal should be implemented to a vote of all affected Contract owners and, as appropriate, withdrawal of the assets of any appropriate group (i.e. , annuity contract owners, life insurance policy owners, or variable contract owners of one or more Participating Insurance Companies) that votes in favor of such withdrawal, or offering to the affected Contract owners the option of making such a change; and (b) establishing a new registered management investment company or managed separate account. 4.4 If a material irreconcilable conflict arises because of a decision by the Company to disregard Contract owner voting instructions and that decision represents a minority position or would preclude a majority vote, the Company may be required, at the Trust's election, to withdraw the affected Account's investment in the Trust and terminate this Agreement with respect to such Account; provided, however, that such withdrawal and termination shall be limited to the extent required by the foregoing material irreconcilable conflict as determined by a majority of the disinterested Trustees. Any such withdrawal and termination must take place within six (6) months after the Trust gives written notice that this provision is being implemented. Until the end of such six (6) month period, the Trust shall continue to accept and implement orders by the Company for the purchase and redemption of shares of the Trust. 4.5 If a material irreconcilable conflict arises because a particular state insurance regulator's decision applicable to the Company conflicts with a majority of other state regulators, then the Company will withdraw the affected Account's investment in the Trust and terminate this Agreement with respect to such Account within six (6) months after the Trustees inform the Company in writing that it has determined that such decision has created an irreconcilable material conflict; provided, however, that such withdrawal and termination shall be limited to the extent required by the foregoing material irreconcilable conflict as determined by a majority of the disinterested Trustees. Until the end of such six (6) month period, the Trust shall continue to accept and implement orders by the Company for the purchase and redemption of shares of the Trust. 4.6 For purposes of Sections 4.3 through 4.6 of this Agreement, a majority of the disinterested Trustees shall determine whether any proposed action adequately remedies any irreconcilable material conflict, but in no event will the Trust be required to establish a new funding medium for the Contracts. In the event that the Trustees determine that any proposed action does not adequately remedy any irreconcilable material conflict, then the Company will withdraw the Account's investment in the Trust and terminate this Agreement within six (6) months after the Trustees inform the Company in writing of the foregoing determination; provided, however, that such withdrawal and termination shall be limited to the extent required by any such material irreconcilable conflict as determined by a majority of the disinterested Trustees. 4.7 The Company shall at least annually submit to the Trustees such reports, materials or data as the Trustees may reasonably request so that the Trustees may fully carry out the duties imposed upon them by the Shared Funding Exemptive Order, and said reports, materials and data shall be submitted more frequently if reasonably deemed appropriate by the Trustees. 4.8 If and to the extent that Rule 6e-2 and Rule 6e-3(T) are amended, or Rule 6e-3 is adopted, to provide exemptive relief from any provision of the 1940 Act or the rules promulgated thereunder with respect to mixed or shared funding (as defined in the Shared Funding Exemptive Order) on terms and conditions materially different from those contained in the Shared Funding Exemptive Order, then the Trust and/or the Participating Insurance Companies, as appropriate, shall take such steps as may be necessary to comply with Rules 6e-2 and 6e-3(T), as amended, and Rule 6e-3, as adopted, to the extent such rules are applicable.

Indemnification 5.1 Indemnification By the Company (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust and each of its Trustees, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Trust within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" and individually the "Indemnified Party" for purposes of this Article V) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or expenses (including the reasonable costs of investigating or defending any alleged loss, claim, damage, liability or expense and reasonable legal counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) (collectively, "Losses"), to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute or regulation, or at common law or otherwise, insofar as such Losses are related to the sale or acquisition of Trust Shares or the Contracts and (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of any material fact contained in a disclosure document for the Contracts or in the Contracts themselves or in sales literature generated or approved by the Company on behalf of the Contracts or Accounts (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing) (collectively, "Company Documents" for the purposes of this Article V), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that this indemnity shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made in reliance upon and was accurately derived from written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Trust for use in Company Documents or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Trust shares; or (ii) arise out of or result from statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in and accurately derived from Trust Documents as defined in Section 5.2 (a)(i)) or wrongful conduct of the Company or persons under its control, with respect to the sale or acquisition of the Contracts or Trust shares; or (iii)arise out of or result from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in Trust Documents as defined in Section 5.2(a)(i) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and accurately derived from written information furnished to the Trust by or on behalf of the Company; or (iv) arise out of or result from any failure by the Company to provide the services or furnish the materials required under the terms of this Agreement; or (v) arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by the Company. (b) The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any Losses to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of such Indemnified Party's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of such Indemnified Party's duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party's reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement or to the Trust or Underwriter, whichever is applicable. The Company shall also not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified the Company in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Company of any such claim shall not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Parties, the Company shall be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such action. The Company also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action. After notice from the Company to such party of the Company's election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Company will not be liable to such party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such party independently in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. (c) The Indemnified Parties will promptly notify the Company of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against them in connection with the issuance or sale of the Trust shares or the Contracts or the operation of the Trust. 5.2 Indemnification By The Underwriter (a) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the underwriter of the Contracts and each of its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" and individually an "Indemnified Party" for purposes of this Section 5.2) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of the Underwriter, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or expenses (including the reasonable costs of investigating or defending any alleged loss, claim, damage, liability or expense and reasonable legal counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) (collectively, "Losses") to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such Losses are related to the sale or acquisition of the Trust's Shares or the Contracts and: (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus or sales literature of the Trust (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing) (collectively, the "Trust Documents") or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that this agreement to indemnify shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such statement or omission of such alleged statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Underwriter or Trust by or on behalf of the Company for use in the Registration Statement or prospectus for the Trust or in sales literature (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Trust shares; or (ii) arise out of or as a result of statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in the disclosure documents or sales literature for the Contracts not supplied by the Underwriter or persons under its control) or wrongful conduct of the Trust, Adviser or Underwriter or persons under their control, with respect to the sale or distribution of the Contracts or Trust shares; or (iii)arise out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a disclosure document or sales literature covering the Contracts, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement or statements therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Trust; or (iv) arise as a result of any failure by the Trust to provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of this Agreement (including a failure, whether unintentional or in good faith or otherwise, to comply with the qualification representation specified in Section 3.7 of this Agreement and the diversification requirements specified in Section 3.6 of this Agreement); or (v) arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by the Underwriter in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by the Underwriter; as limited by and in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.2(b) and 5.2(c) hereof. (b) The Underwriter shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any Losses to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of such Indemnified Party's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of such Indemnified Party's duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party's reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement or to each Company or the Account, whichever is applicable. (c) The Underwriter shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified the Underwriter in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Underwriter of any such claim shall not relieve the Underwriter from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Parties, the Underwriter will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof. The Underwriter also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action. After notice from the Underwriter to such party of the Underwriter's election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Underwriter will not be liable to such party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such party independently in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. (d) The Company agrees promptly to notify the Underwriter of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against it or any of its officers or directors in connection with the issuance or sale of the Contracts or the operation of each Account. 5.3 Indemnification By The Trust (a) The Trust agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this Section 5.3) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of the Trust, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or litigation (including legal and other expenses) to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) or settlements result from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Board or any member thereof, are related to the operations of the Trust, and arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by the Trust in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by the Trust; as limited by and in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.3(b) and 5.3(c) hereof. It is understood and expressly stipulated that neither the holders of shares of the Trust nor any Trustee, officer, agent or employee of the Trust shall be personally liable hereunder, nor shall any resort to be had to other private property for the satisfaction of any claim or obligation hereunder, but the Trust only shall be liable. (b) The Trust shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation incurred or assessed against any Indemnified Party as such may arise from such Indemnified Party's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of such Indemnified Party's duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party's reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement or to the Company, the Trust, the Underwriter or each Account, whichever is applicable. (c) The Trust shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified the Trust in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claims shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Trust of any such claim shall not relieve the Trust from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Parties, the Trust will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof. The Trust also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action. After notice from the Trust to such party of the Trust's election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Trust will not be liable to such party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such party independently in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. (d) The Company and the Underwriter agree promptly to notify the Trust of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against it or any of its respective officers or directors in connection with this Agreement, the issuance or sale of the Contracts, with respect to the operation of either the Account, or the sale or acquisition of share of the Trust. ARTICLE VI. Termination 6.1 This Agreement may be terminated by any party in its entirety or with respect to one, some or all Portfolios or any reason by ninety (90) days advance written notice delivered to the other parties, and shall terminate immediately in the event of its assignment, as that term is used in the 1940 Act. 6.2 This Agreement may be terminated immediately by either the Trust or the Underwriter following consultation with the Trustees upon written notice to the Company: (a) if the Company notifies the Trust or the Underwriter that the exemption from registration under Section 3(c) of the 1940 Act no longer applies, or might not apply in the future, to the unregistered Accounts, or that the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) or Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act no longer applies or might not apply in the future, to interests under the unregistered Contracts; or (b) if either one or both of the Trust or the Underwriter respectively, shall determine, in their sole judgment exercised in good faith, that the Company or the Contracts' underwriter has suffered a material adverse change in its business, operations, financial condition or prospects since the date of this Agreement or is the subject of material adverse publicity; or (c) if the Company gives the Trust and the Underwriter the written notice specified in Section 1.10 hereof and at the same time such notice was given there was no notice of termination outstanding under any other provision of this Agreement; provided, however, that any termination under this Section 6.2(c) shall be effective forty-five (45) days after the notice specified in Section 1.10 was given; or (d) upon the Company's or the Contracts' underwriter's material breach of any provision of this Agreement; but no termination shall be effective under this section 6.2(d) until the Trust has stated in writing the nature of the breach and the Company or the Contracts' underwriter has been afforded a reasonable opportunity to cure the breach; or (e) upon the institution of formal proceedings against the Company or the Contracts' underwriter by the NASD, the SEC, or any state securities or insurance department or any other regulatory body regarding the Company's or the Contracts' underwriter's duties under this Agreement or related to the sale of its Contracts. 6.3 This Agreement may be terminated immediately by the Company upon written notice to the Trust and the Underwriter: (a) if the Company shall determine, in its sole judgment exercised in good faith, that either the Trust or the Underwriter has suffered a material adverse change in its business, operations, financial conditions or prospects since the date of this Agreement or is the subject of material adverse publicity; or (b) upon the Trust's or the Underwriter's material breach of any provision of this Agreement; but no termination shall be effective under this section 6.3(b) until the Company has specified the nature of the breach in writing and Trust or the Underwriter has been afforded a reasonable opportunity to cure the breach; or (c) upon the institution of formal proceedings against the Trust or the Underwriter by the NASD, the SEC, or any state securities or insurance department or any other regulatory body regarding the Trust's or the Underwriter's duties under this Agreement or related to the sale of its shares. 6.4 If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, except under Article IV (Potential Conflicts) above, the Trust shall, at the option of the Company, continue to make available additional shares of any Portfolio and redeem shares of any Portfolio pursuant to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement for all Contracts in effect on the effective date of termination of this Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IV, the provisions of Article IV shall govern. 6.5 The provisions of Articles II (Representations and Warranties) and V (Indemnification) shall survive the termination of this Agreement. All other applicable provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement, as long as shares of the Trust are held on behalf of Contract owners in accordance with Section 6.4, except that the Trust and the Underwriter shall have no further obligation to sell Trust shares with respect to Contracts issued after termination. 6.6 The Company shall not redeem Trust shares attributable to the Contracts (as opposed to Trust shares attributable to the Company's assets held in the Account) except (i) as necessary to implement Contract owner initiated or approved transactions, (ii) as required by state and/or federal laws or regulations or judicial or other legal precedent of general application (hereinafter referred to as a "Legally Required Redemption"), or (iii) as permitted by an order of the SEC pursuant to Section 26(b) of the 1940 Act. Upon request, the Company will promptly furnish to the Trust and the Underwriter the opinion of counsel for the Company (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trust and the Underwriter) to the effect that any redemption pursuant to clause (ii) above is a Legally Required Redemption. Furthermore, except in cases where permitted under the terms of the Contracts, the Company shall not prevent Contract owners from allocating payments to a Portfolio that was otherwise available under the Contracts without first giving the Trust or the Underwriter 90 days notice of its intention to do so.

We have made such examination of the law and have examined such records and documents as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinions expressed below. We are of the following opinions: 1. Cova Variable Annuity Account One is a Unit Investment Trust as that term is defined in Section 4(2) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"), and is currently registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to Section 8(a) of the Act. 2. Upon the acceptance of purchase payments made by an Owner pursuant to a Contract issued in accordance with the Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement and upon compliance with applicable law, such an Owner will have a legally-issued, fully paid, non-assessable contractual interest under such Contract. You may use this opinion letter, or a copy thereof, as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. We consent to the reference to our Firm under the caption "Legal Opinions" contained in the Statement of Additional Information which forms a part of the Registration Statement.

WHEREAS, Insurance Company has established the Separate Account for the purpose of issuing variable annuity contracts and proposes to contribute to the Separate Account up to the sum of $10,000,000 ("Contribution(s)") in the manner hereinafter described; WHEREAS, it is necessary and desirable that the terms under which said Contribution(s) is made and the respective rights of Insurance Company and the Separate Account with respect thereto be determined; NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between Insurance Company and the Separate Account as follows: I Insurance Company hereby commits itself to make an initial Contribution to the Separate Account of $100,000 and may, in its sole discretion, make subsequent Contributions up to the sum of $10,000,000 (inclusive of the $100,000 initial Contribution). Insurance Company hereby represents and agrees that it is making such Contribution(s) for purposes of providing working capital for the Separate Account and not with a view to redeeming or disposing of any interest in the Separate Account resulting from such Contribution(s). II In consideration for such Contribution(s) and without deduction of any sales or other charges, the Separate Account shall credit Insurance Company with accumulation units of which Insurance Company shall be the owner. Such accumulation units shall share pro rate in the investment performance of the Separate Account and shall be subject to the same valuation procedures and the same periodic charges as are other accumulation units and annuity units in the Separate Account. III Insurance Company hereby acknowledges that by making such Contribution(s) it is not and shall not be regarded as a creditor of the Separate Account and that the relationship of debtor-creditor between the Separate Account and Insurance Company does not exist with respect to the amount so contributed. Insurance Company agrees that by making such Contribution(s) it is not now and shall not in the future be, or be deemed to be, the holder of any interest other than as provided in paragraph II of this agreement. Insurance Company agrees that its interest in the Separate Account as a result of such Contribution(s) shall be neither senior to nor subordinate to the interests of owners of variable annuity contracts issued with respect to the Separate Account and that, in the event of liquidation of the Separate Account, however occurring, Insurance Company shall have no preferential rights of any kind over such contract owners' but shall share ratably with them. IV All commitments of Insurance Company hereunder shall be forever binding upon its successor or successors. V Insurance Company shall not withdraw the initial Contribution of $100,000 prior to five years from the date hereof unless the program is terminated and no more variable annuity Contracts are offered through the Separate Account. The Company may also, at any time, withdraw one dollar of the initial Contribution for each dollar of assets contributed to the Separate Account in the form of purchase payments from annuity contract owners. There are no limitations on withdrawals for subsequent Contributions. VI The Separate Account hereby accepts such Contribution(s) subject to the terms of this Agreement.
