Item 26. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with the Depositor or Registrant

Incorporated herein by reference to Item 28 in Post-Effective Amendment No. 9 to Registration Statement on Form N-6 for ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York Variable Life Separate Account I (File No. 333-47527), as filed on April 7, 2005.

Item 27. Number of Contract Owners

As of September 30October 31, 2005, there were 58,118 owners of contracts holding interests in variable annuities funded through Separate Account N of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company.

Item 28. Indemnification

Reference is hereby made to Article VII of Depositor's Bylaws, incorporated by reference to this registration statement. The Bylaws of Depositor mandate indemnification by Depositor of its directors, officers and certain others under certain conditions.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Depositor or ING Financial Advisers, LLC, pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, Depositor and ING Financial Advisers, LLC have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by Depositor of expenses incurred or paid by a director or officer or controlling person of Depositor or ING Financial Advisers, LLC in the successful defense or any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person of Depositor or ING Financial Advisers, LLC in connection with the securities being registered, Depositor or ING Financial Advisers, LLC, as the case may be, will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether or not such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Section 20 of the ING Financial Advisers, LLC Limited Liability Company Agreement provides that ING Financial Advisers, LLC will indemnify certain persons against any loss, damage, claim or expenses (including legal fees) incurred by such person if he is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to a suit or proceeding because he was a member, officer, director, employee or agent of ING Financial Advisers, LLC, as long as he acted in good faith on behalf of ING Financial Advisers, LLC and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of his authority. An additional condition requires that no person shall be entitled to indemnity if his loss, damage, claim or expense was incurred by reason of his gross negligence or willful misconduct. This indemnity provision is authorized by and is consistent with Title 8, Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

ING Groep N.V. maintains an umbrella insurance policy with an international insurer to cover errors and omissions, directors and officers, employment practices, fiduciary and fidelity. The policy covers ING Groep N.V. and any company in which ING Groep N.V. has controlling interest of 50% or more.

Item 29. Principal Underwriter

(a)

In addition to serving as the principal underwriter for the Registrant, ING Financial Advisers, LLC also acts as the principal underwriter for ING Partners, Inc. (a management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act)). Additionally, ING Financial Advisers, LLC acts as the principal underwriter for Variable Life Account B of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (ILIAC), Variable Life Account C of ILIAC, Variable Annuity Account B and C of ILIAC and Variable Annuity Account G of ILIAC (separate accounts of ILIAC registered as unit investment trusts under the 1940 Act). ING Financial Advisers, LLC is also the principal underwriter for (i) Variable Annuity Account I of ING Insurance Company of America (IICA) (a separate account of IICA registered as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act), (ii) ReliaStar Select Variable Account of ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (a separate account of RLIC registered as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act), (iii) MFS ReliaStar Variable Account (a separate account of RLIC registered as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act), (iv) Northstar Variable Account (a separate account of RLIC registered as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act), (v) ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York Variable Annuity Funds A, B, C (a management investment company registered under the 1940 Act), (vi) ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York Variable Annuity Funds D, E, F, G, H, I (a management investment company registered under the 1940 Act), (vii) ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York Variable Annuity Funds M, P, and Q (a management investment company registered under the1940 Act), and (viii) ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York Variable Annuity Funds M P (a management investment company registered under the1940 Act).
