This  Prospectus  describes a modified  single  premium  variable life insurance
policy being  offered by American  Skandia  Life  Assurance  Corporation  ("we,"
"our," "us," "American  Skandia," or "the Company"),  One Corporate Drive,  P.O.
Box 883, Shelton,  Connecticut,  06484. This policy may be offered as individual
coverage or as interest in a group policy.  This Prospectus  provides a detailed
discussion of matters you should consider before buying a Policy. This policy or
certain of its  investment  options may not be available  in all  jurisdictions.
Various rights and benefits may differ between  jurisdictions to meet applicable
law and/or  regulations.  This  Prospectus is made up of the  following  general
sections:  Cover  Page,  Table  of  Contents,  Definitions,  Description  of the
Offering,  Miscellaneous  Provisions and Additional  Details. On this cover page
and in the Description of the Offering  section,  we use a "question and answer"
format to assist you in understanding this offering.

         In summary,  what is American Skandia offering to me? We are offering a
type of cash value life  insurance  coverage.  This life  insurance  coverage is
called a  "modified  single  premium  variable  life  insurance  policy."  These
technical terms can be explained, as follows:

   
         (1) This coverage is life  insurance  because a death  benefit  becomes
payable to a beneficiary upon the death of the person insured.  It is cash value
life insurance because,  in addition to a death benefit, it also provides living
benefits for the owner,  such as the right to take loans from us using the value
of the policy as collateral and the right to take withdrawals.
    

         (2) This coverage is called  modified  single premium because we do not
accept  any  premium  other than the first  unless we know about the  additional
premium during the  underwriting  period or an additional  amount is required to
keep the policy from being cancelled.

         (3) This  coverage is variable  because you can allocate all or part of
your premium to variable  investment  options that invest in  underlying  mutual
funds. The performance of these investment  options is not guaranteed.  You bear
the investment  risk if you allocate funds to these  investment  options because
the  benefits  that depend on the  investment  performance  of these  investment
options can decrease or increase.

         (4) This coverage allows you to allocate all or part of your premium to
a fixed  option  to which we  credit  interest.  The  return  on this  option is
guaranteed. We bear the investment risk if you allocate funds to this option.

         (5) We believe  this policy  will be treated as a  "modified  endowment
contract"  under the Internal  Revenue Code (the  "Code").  In general,  the tax
treatment of a modified endowment contract's death benefit is similar to that of
death  benefits under life  insurance  policies,  while the tax treatment of the
contract's  living  benefits  are  similar  to those of  living  benefits  under
deferred  annuities.  This means that in many circumstances the beneficiary owes
no Federal income tax on the death proceeds.  However,  most  distributions from
such a policy  while the  insured is alive,  including  loans,  withdrawals  and
surrender,  are taxable to the owner, like distributions from a deferred annuity
before annuity payments begin. This means that such  distributions are deemed to
come first from any gain in the policy.  Any gain is treated as ordinary  income
and may be  subject  to a 10% tax  penalty  if  taken  before  your  age 59 1/2.
Information  relating to the tax treatment of life insurance contracts which are
not modified endowment contracts appears in the section entitled "Additional Tax
Considerations".

Is there Federal  insurance for these policies?  Premiums for these policies are
not deposits or  obligations  of, or guaranteed or endorsed by, any bank or bank
subsidiary.  Neither  premiums  nor any  payments or benefits  pursuant to these
policies are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance  Corporation,  the Federal
Reserve Board, or any other agency.

ACCOUNT VALUE is the value of each  allocation  to a  Sub-account  and any Fixed
Allocation,  plus any  earnings and less any losses,  distributions  and charges
thereon,  plus the value of any amounts in the Loan  Account,  plus any earnings
and less any  distributions  and charges thereon,  all before  assessment of any
contingent  deferred  sales  charge,  contingent  deferred  tax  charge or Debt.
Account  Value is  determined  separately  for each  Sub-account  and each Fixed
Allocation,  as well as for any amounts in the Loan Account, and then totaled to
determine the Account Value of your entire Policy.

   
AGE is the age of an Insured for purposes of this Policy. Initially, and for the
first  Policy Year,  it is the age last  birthday of an Insured as of the Policy
Date. In each  following  Policy Year, it is the age last birthday of an Insured
as of the preceding Policy Anniversary.
    

APPLICATION  is the form or  combination  of forms we require you to submit when
you are seeking a Policy.  Where there are two Insureds,  Application  means the
form or combination of forms required for both Insureds.

BENEFICIARY  is a person or  entity  you  designate  on whose  behalf  any Death
Proceeds are payable.  Unless  otherwise  specified,  Beneficiary  refers to all
persons or entities so designated.

CASH VALUE is the  Account  Value less any  contingent  deferred  sales  charge,
contingent deferred tax charge and Debt.

CASH VALUE CREDITS are amounts we credit to your Account Value.  We credit these
amounts if your total  Cash  Value on a Policy  Anniversary  equals or exceeds a
Cash Value trigger.

CODE is the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

DEATH BENEFIT is the amount payable as a result of an Insured's death before any
applicable  reduction  for any Debt and  before  addition  of any  interest  due
pursuant to law. If there is a second Insured, the Death Benefit is payable upon
the death of the last surviving Insured.

DEATH  PROCEEDS is the amount  payable as a result of the Insured's  death after
any  applicable  reduction  for Debt and  after  addition  of any  interest  due
pursuant to law.

DEBT is the total of any outstanding loan and loan interest.

FACE AMOUNT is the Death Benefit as of the Policy Date.

   
FIXED  ALLOCATION is an allocation of Account Value to our general  account that
is to be credited a fixed rate of interest.
    

GROWTH is a  portion  of the  Account  Value.  It equals  (a) less (b) less (c),
where:  (a) is the total current Account Value;  (b) is any Debt; and (c) is the
Premium less any partial withdrawals treated as a withdrawal of Premium.

GUARANTEED  MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT is the minimum amount we guarantee is due as a
result of the Insured's  death,  prior to any reduction for Debt,  even if it is
higher than the Required Death Benefit.

IN WRITING is in a written form, in a manner we accept,  that is satisfactory to
us and filed at our Office. We retain the right to specifically agree in advance
to accept  communication  regarding a specific  matter by  telephone  or by some
other form of electronic transmission, in a manner we prescribe.

INSURED is the person  upon  whose  life  coverage  is issued and as a result of

of the  younger  Insured,  or what would have been the  younger  Insured's  95th
birthday if the younger Insured predeceases the older Insured.

   
MONTHLY  PROCESSING  DAY/DATE  is the  Valuation  Day each  month when we deduct
charges from the Account Value. The first Monthly  Processing Date is the Policy
Date.  After that, the Monthly  Processing Dates generally occur on the same day
of the month as the Policy Date. If the Monthly  Processing Date occurs on a day
that is not a Valuation Day, the Monthly  Processing Date that month will be the
next Valuation Period.
    

NET SINGLE  PREMIUM is the amount that would be required,  according to the Code
and the regulations  based on the Code, to fund: (a) the Policy's Required Death
Benefit,  assuming the current Required Death Benefit would not change;  and (b)
future benefits and charges using assumptions about: (i) growth of Account Value
so that it would equal the current  Required Death Benefit on the Maturity Date;
and (ii)  charges,  as  provided  pursuant to the Code.  The Net Single  Premium
depends on the attained  age,  gender  (where  permitted)  and risk class of the
Insured.  The Net Single Premium changes as the Insured ages. The applicable Net
Single Premiums would change if required under the Code or regulations  based on
the Code.

OFFICE  is  our   administrative   office:   American   Skandia  Life  Assurance
Corporation, P.O. Box 290698, Wethersfield, Connecticut 06129-0698.

questions.  The  description  below  is  divided  into the  following  sections:
Purchasers,  The Insurance  Company,  Benefits at the Insured's  Death,  Account
Value and Cash  Value,  Cash Value  Credits,  Costs,  Buying a Policy,  Variable
Investment  Options,   Transfers  and  Allocation   Services,   Loans,   Partial

Skandia follows this description.

                                   Purchasers

         Who  should buy this  Policy?  Life  insurance  can be bought to meet a
number of needs of  individuals  or entities,  such as  corporations  or trusts.
Different  types of life  insurance  are designed to address  certain needs more
than others. This Policy may be appropriate for a number of persons or entities,
but it may be especially useful for addressing a range of estate planning needs.
Because of estate taxes,  purchasers  may want to consider  placing this type of
coverage in an applicable  trust or  transferring  ownership of the Policy in an
effort to remove the asset from their estate. This Policy may also be useful for
persons seeking to make a sizable  donation to a charity or eligible  non-profit
organization,  where the  charity  is named both  Owner and  Beneficiary  of the
Policy,  and the donor is named as the Insured.  You should  evaluate  carefully
with  your  financial  representative  whether  this  Policy  is right  for your
specific needs in light of your entire situation and your personal and financial
goals. In particular,  you should evaluate the advantages and  disadvantages  of
replacing any existing life insurance or annuity  coverage with this Policy.  If
you are seeking specific tax  consequences,  you should consult with a competent
tax advisor as to whether and how your goals may best be achieved.

                         Benefits at the Insured's Death

         What benefits are due as a result of the Insured's  death? The benefits
due as a result of the  Insured's  death are the  Death  Proceeds.  If there are
joint  Insureds,  the  benefits  are due as a  result  of the  death of the last
surviving Insured.

         What are the Death Proceeds?  The Death Proceeds are based on the Death
Benefit as of the date we receive all our  requirements for paying a death claim
and are satisfied that the death claim can be paid. These requirements  include,
but are not limited to, receipt of a valid death  certificate and information we
need to make payments to all Beneficiaries.

We determine  the Death  Proceeds by first  subtracting  any Debt from the Death
Benefit. We then add any interest amount required by law.

   
         What is the Death  Benefit?  The  Death  Benefit  is the  higher of the
Required Death Benefit and the  Guaranteed  Minimum Death Benefit as of the date
we receive due proof of death.  The Required Death Benefit is the minimum amount
that must be payable at the Insured's death,  before reduction for any Debt, for
the  Policy to be  treated  as life  insurance  under the Code.  The  Guaranteed
Minimum  Death  Benefit,  which is discussed  below in response to the question,
"What is the Guaranteed  Minimum Death  Benefit?," is the minimum amount payable
at the  Insured's  death,  before  reduction for any Debt,  irrespective  of the
Required Death Benefit. The Required Death Benefit is determined by treating the
Account  Value as if it were a net single  premium.  We  determine  the Required
Death Benefit by dividing the Account Value by factors that are determined as of
the  Policy  Date.  These  factors  vary  by the  attained  Age,  gender  (where
permitted)  and  risk  class  of the  Insured.  See  Appendix  C for a  complete
description  of the  applicable  factors we use to determine the Required  Death
Benefit. The following are representative  examples of the factors on the Policy
Date for different Ages, genders and risk classes,  as well as the amount of the
Required Death Benefit if the Account Value were $100,000.

         Female,  Age 55, not a tobacco  user:  The factor is .400884.  $100,000
         divided by .400884 results in a Required Death Benefit of $249,449.

         Male, Age 60, a tobacco user: The factor is .586632.  $100,000  divided
         by .586632 results in a Required Death Benefit of $170,465.

         Female, Age 70, a tobacco user: The factor is .637176. $100,000 divided
         by .637176 results in a Required Death Benefit of $156,943.

         Male,  Age 75,  not a tobacco  user:  The factor is  .736865.  $100,000
         divided by .736865 results in a Required Death Benefit of $135,710.
    

As noted above,  the factors depend on the Insured's  gender (where  permitted),
risk class and  attained  Age. The gender and risk class of the Insured does not
change, so the only element that changes the factor after the Policy Date is the
aging of the Insured.  The following  example may help you understand the effect
of aging on the Required Death Benefit.

   
The Insured is a woman,  Age 64, for whom  coverage  was issued at her Age 60 in
the "not a tobacco  user" risk  class.  On the  Valuation  Day before the Policy
Anniversary  following  the  Insured's  65th  birthday,  the  Account  Value  is
$100,000.  The  Required  Death  Benefit  as  required  under  the Code for this
Insured's age,  gender,  risk class and Account Value is $100,000 divided by the
applicable  factor of  .521878,  which  results in a Required  Death  Benefit of
$191,616.  For the sake of this  example,  assume that the next  Valuation  Day,
which is the Policy  Anniversary  after the Insured's 65th birthday (the day the
Insured  turns Age 65 for purposes of the  Policy),  the Account  Value  remains
$100,000.  At the  higher Age of 65, the  Required  Death  Benefit on the Policy
Anniversary  is $100,000  divided by the  applicable  factor of  .536544,  which
results in a Required Death Benefit of $186,378.
    

         What else can affect the Required  Death  Benefit?  The Required  Death
Benefit changes as the Account Value changes. This is because the Required Death
Benefit is calculated  based on the Account  Value. A few examples may help show
what this means.  Assume for  purposes of these  examples  that the Insured is a
woman,  Age 65, for whom coverage was issued at her Age 60 in the "not a tobacco
user" risk class.

   
         (a) On a particular  Monthly  Processing Date, the Account Value of the
Policy is  $100,000.  The Required  Death  Benefit as of that  Valuation  Day is
$100,000 divided by the then applicable factor of .536544 or $186,378. As of the
next Valuation Day, assume the Account Value has grown to $100,010. The Required
Death Benefit is $100,010 divided by the same factor of .536544, or $186,396.

         (b) On a particular  Monthly  Processing Date, the Account Value of the
Policy is  $100,000.  The Required  Death  Benefit as of that  Valuation  Day is
$100,000 divided by the then applicable  factor of .536544,  or $186,378.  As of
the next Valuation Day,  assume the Account Value has decreased to $99,990.  The
Required  Death  Benefit is $99,990  divided by the same factor of  .536544,  or
$186,359.

         (c) On a particular  Monthly  Processing Date, the Account Value of the
Policy before any partial withdrawal is $100,000.  The Required Death Benefit as
of that  Valuation  Day is  $100,000  divided by the then  applicable  factor of
 .536544,  or $186,378.  On that same day,  assume  $20,000 is taken as a partial
withdrawal. Immediately after the partial withdrawal, the Required Death Benefit
is $80,000 divided by the same factor of .536544, or $149,102.
    

         What is the Face Amount?  The Face Amount is the Required Death Benefit
         on the Policy Date.

         What is the  Guaranteed  Minimum Death  Benefit?  We use the Guaranteed
         Minimum  Death  Benefit  in  determining  the  Death  Proceeds  if  the
         Guaranteed  Minimum  Death  Benefit is higher than the  Required  Death
         Benefit. The Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit is determined as follows:

         (a) On the Policy Date, the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit equals the
         Premium.

         (b) After the Policy Date and until the first Policy  Anniversary,  the
Guaranteed  Minimum Death Benefit is the Premium less every  "reduction due to a
withdrawal," which is defined below.

         (c) After the first Policy  Anniversary  but before the "target  date,"
(the Policy  Anniversary that the Insured turns Age 75), the Guaranteed  Minimum
Death Benefit is the higher of (1) or (2), where:  (1) is the Premium less every
"reduction due to a  withdrawal";  and (2) is the highest  "Anniversary  Value."
"Anniversary  Value" is the Account Value on any Policy  Anniversary  less every
reduction due to a withdrawal since that Policy Anniversary.

         (d) On or after the "target date," the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit
is the higher of (1) or (2), where: (1) is the Premium less every "reduction due
to a withdrawal";  and (2) is the highest Anniversary Value, as defined above in
(c), as of the "target date," less every  "reduction due to a withdrawal"  after
the "target date."

         (e) Notwithstanding  items (a) through (d) above, if the Insured is Age
75 or older on the Policy Date,  the  Guaranteed  Minimum  Death  Benefit is the
Premium less every "reduction due to a withdrawal."

         (f) If the  Policy  is  issued  for two (2)  Insureds,  the  Guaranteed
Minimum Death Benefit is based on the age of the younger Insured,  or what would
have been the age of the younger Insured if the younger Insured  predeceases the
older Insured.

A "reduction  due to a withdrawal" is a  proportional  reduction.  It equals the
ratio by which the Account Value is reduced by a partial withdrawal or a payment
under the Accelerated Death Benefit provision, described below in the section of
the same name,  multiplied  by the  Guaranteed  Minimum  Death Benefit as of the
effective  date of such  partial  withdrawal  or payment.  For  example,  if the
Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit before a partial withdrawal is $100,000 and the
Account Value is $120,000,  the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit after a $60,000
partial  withdrawal (a 50%  reduction in the Account  Value) would be $50,000 (a
50% reduction in the Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit).

   
         How are Death Proceeds paid? We pay the Death Proceeds as a lump sum or
in  accordance  with the  terms of  whatever  settlement  options  we then  make
available to  Beneficiaries.  Generally,  Beneficiaries can choose a lump sum or
from one of the  settlement  options that we make  available.  However,  you may
choose the method of payment for your  Beneficiaries if you notify us In Writing
before the Insured's death how you want the Death Proceeds to be paid.
    

                          Account Value and Cash Value

         What is the Account  Value?  The Account Value is the value of a Policy
before any  deduction  for any  contingent  deferred  sales  charge,  contingent
deferred tax charge or Debt. It is the total of the Account Value  maintained in
the investment  options you choose to utilize plus any Account Value in the Loan
Account.  You may allocate Account Value to variable investment  options,  which
are all Sub-accounts of the Separate Account,  or to Fixed Allocations.  Account
Value is maintained in the Loan Account as collateral for outstanding loans.

         How does American  Skandia  determine the Account Value in the variable
investment  options?  On each Valuation  Date, the Account Value in any variable
investment  option you utilize  equals the number of Units you then  maintain in
that investment option multiplied by that investment  option's then current Unit
Price. When you allocate all or a portion of the Premium to an investment option
or when you transfer Account Value into a variable investment option,  Units are
purchased using the then current Unit Price. When you take all or a portion of a
distribution  or  benefit  from a  variable  investment  option or you  transfer
Account  Value from a  variable  investment  option,  Units are sold at the then
current Unit Price in order to fund that distribution, benefit or transfer.

   
         How does  American  Skandia  determine  the  Account  Value  for  Fixed
Allocations? We credit a fixed rate of interest to Fixed Allocations.  From time
to time we declare  interest rates applicable to new Fixed  Allocations.  If you
make a Fixed  Allocation,  we  credit  the rate  then in  effect  to that  Fixed
Allocation until the next Policy  Anniversary.  Once that Policy  Anniversary is
reached,  we credit,  for the next Policy Year, the then current rate applicable
to new Fixed  Allocations.  This applies to all your Fixed  Allocations  then in
effect.  During each subsequent  Policy Year, the rate we credit for each Policy
Year is the one then in effect for new Fixed Allocations.
    

The Policy offered pursuant to this Prospectus includes Fixed Allocations. These
Fixed  Allocations  are not  registered  as a security with the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission  under either the  Securities Act of 1933 or the Investment
Company  Act of 1940.  The Fixed  Allocations  are not  subject  to these  Acts.
Information  about the Fixed  Allocations is included in this Prospectus to help
with  your  understanding  of the  features  of the  Policy.  The  staff  of the
Securities and Exchange  Commission has not reviewed this information.  However,
the information may be subject to certain generally applicable provisions of the
Federal  securities  laws  regarding  accuracy  and  completeness.   The  assets
supporting Fixed Allocations are held in American Skandia's general account.

         How does  American  Skandia  determine  the  interest  rate  for  Fixed
Allocations?  We determine the interest rate applied to Fixed  Allocations based
on our assessment of the earnings we expect to achieve when investing to support
these obligations, our costs, competition,  profit targets and other factors. We
have sole  discretion  to determine the rates.  However,  the interest rate will
never be less than 3.0% per year, compounded yearly.

         How does  American  Skandia  determine  the  Account  Value in the Loan
Account?  The rate we credit to  Account  Value in the Loan  Account  depends on
whether that Account Value is serving as collateral for "preferred loans" or for
"standard  loans," which are discussed  below in response to the question  "What
are a `preferred loan' and a `standard loan'?" We credit interest at the rate of
6.0% per year,  compounded  yearly, to Account Value in the Loan Account serving
as collateral for "preferred  loans." We credit interest at the rate of 4.0% per
year,  compounded  yearly,  to  Account  Value in the Loan  Account  serving  as
collateral for "standard loans."

         What is the Cash Value?  The Cash Value is the total Account Value less
any contingent deferred sales charge, contingent deferred tax charge and Debt.

   
         Do I have to  maintain a minimum  Cash  Value?  The  answer  depends on
whether  there is any Debt.  You do not have to maintain a minimum Cash Value if
there is no Debt,  except if you take a partial  withdrawal.  We will inform you
if, on a Monthly  Processing  Date, your Cash Value equals or is less than zero.
Such Monthly  Processing Date will be the beginning of the grace period. At that
time  we  will  also  inform  you of the  amount  you  can  pay if you  wish  to
reestablish any Cash Value. No payment is required.  The Policy remains in force
with the Death Benefit equal to the  Guaranteed  Minimum Death Benefit as of the
beginning of the grace period.
    

If there is any Debt,  there must  always be enough  Cash Value so that after we
deduct any charges the Cash Value is more than zero.  If the Cash Value would be
zero or less after we deduct  charges,  we send you a notice giving you a 61-day
"grace period" to send us a required  amount.  If this amount is not paid by the
end of the grace period, the Policy ends without value.

                               Cash Value Credits

         What are Cash Value Credits,  and how do I get them? Cash Value Credits
are amounts we credit to your Account Value,  where permitted by law. We provide
these amounts if your total Cash Value on a Policy Anniversary equals or exceeds
a Cash Value  trigger.  We determine if your Policy is eligible for a Cash Value
Credit on each Policy Anniversary. Eligibility for Cash Value Credits may change
from year to year.  Whether your Cash Value meets or exceeds the trigger depends
on investment performance of the investment options,  partial withdrawals,  Debt
and whether you pay back any loans or loan interest.

         What is the Cash Value  trigger?  The Cash Value trigger is 200% of the
Premium. That means that, even if your Account Value is 200% of the Premium, you
may not have reached the trigger  amount,  since the Cash Value may be less than
the Account Value due to the contingent  deferred  sales charge,  the contingent
deferred tax charge and any Debt.

         How much is added to my Account Value?  The Cash Value Credit,  if any,
added to your Account  Value  equals  0.25% of the Cash Value on the  applicable
Policy Anniversary. The following examples may help you understand this.

         (a)  Assume that the Premium paid for a Policy is $100,000. Assume that
              on the 10th Policy  Anniversary  the Cash Value is  $202,000.  The
              Cash Value  trigger is 200% of $100,000,  which is  $200,000.  The
              amount  to be added  to the  Account  Value is 0.25% of  $202,000,
              which is $505.

         (b)  Assume  that,  for the same  Policy,  the  Cash  Value on the 11th
              Policy Anniversary is $195,000, due to a combination of investment
              performance  and a loan of  $25,000  in the  middle of the  Policy
              Year. The Cash Value trigger for this Policy,  as noted above,  is
              $200,000.  Therefore, no Cash Value Credit is provided on the 11th
              Policy Anniversary.

         (c)  Assume  that,  for the same  Policy,  the  Cash  Value on the 12th
              Policy Anniversary is $240,000, due to a combination of investment
              performance and repayment of the loan and loan interest.  As noted
              above, the Cash Value trigger is $200,000.  The amount to be added
              is 0.25% of $240,000, which is $600.

         Who pays for the Cash Value Credits,  and how are they paid? We pay for
any Cash Value  Credits out of our general  account.  We allocate any Cash Value
Credits due on the  applicable  Policy  Anniversary  to the variable  investment
options and Fixed  Allocations in which you then maintain Account Value. We make
the allocations  pro-rata based on the Account Value in the variable  investment
options and any Fixed  Allocations  on the  applicable  Policy  Anniversary.  No
allocation is made to the Loan Account.
Cash Value Credits cannot be used to repay Debt.

                                      Costs

   
         What kinds of charges  are there for this  Policy?  The Policy has four
(4)  different  kinds of charges:  (1) charges we assess  daily  against  assets
maintained  in the Separate  Account,  which only apply to the Account Value you
allocate to the variable investment options;  (2) charges we deduct monthly from
the Account  Value and which are due in all Policy  Years;  (3) charges  that we
deduct  monthly from the Account Value only for the first ten Policy Years;  and
(4) "contingent"  charges,  which are those charges that you only pay in certain
specified circumstances.
    

         What are the charges assessed against the Separate Account and when are
they paid? We assess a mortality  and expense risk charge and an  administration
charge  against the assets in the Separate  Account each Valuation  Period.  The
mortality  and  expense  risk  charge  is 0.90%  per year.  The  charge  for the
administrative  expenses  connected with operating the Separate Account is 0.25%
per year.  We assess these  charges each  Valuation  Period  against the average
daily  total  value of each  Sub-account.  We  reserve  the right to assess  the
Separate Account for any taxes that may be attributed to it. Currently,  no such
charge for taxes is assessed.

         What monthly charge  applies in all Policy Years?  We always deduct the
cost of  insurance  charge.  We take this charge  from your  Account  Value,  in
advance,  each Monthly  Processing  Day. The charge is a percentage of your then
current Account Value.

         How much is the cost of insurance charge?  The cost of insurance charge
is not a constant  dollar  amount,  in part because it is a  percentage  of your
Account  Value.  The  percentage  of your Account  Value that we charge  differs
depending on four factors:  (1) whether we issue the Policy for only one Insured
or for two;  (2) the Age(s) of the  Insured(s)  as of the Policy  Date;  (3) the
gender of the  Insured(s),  where  permitted;  and (4) the risk class(es) of the
Insured(s).  We reserve the right to also have the percentage  decrease based on
the size of the Premium.

The actual charge is a monthly charge.  The equivalent  yearly cost of insurance
charges  as of the  Policy  Date are  shown  below for a Policy  issued  for one
Insured.  The charges  will be different if we are required by law to charge the
same  amount for males and  females.  For  purposes  of this and the  succeeding
table, "Age" is as of the Policy Date.

  ---------------- ------------------------- ----------------- -----------------
        Gender         Tobacco Usage Class        Age 20-69         Age 70-90

  ---------------- ------------------------- ----------------- -----------------

If the Policy is issued for two Insureds,  the yearly percentages of the Account
Value we deduct for the cost of insurance will depend on the risk classes of the
Insureds.  The  following  are examples of  applicable  charges as of the Policy
Date. The charges will be different if we are required by law to charge the same
amount for males and females.

         Is there a maximum  cost of  insurance  charge?  We monitor the cost of
insurance  charge  so that it never  exceeds a  guaranteed  maximum  charge.  We
determine  that  guaranteed  maximum as if we were  charging  you an  increasing
amount based on the Insured's attained Age and were assessing that charge on the
difference  between the Required  Death  Benefit and the Account  Value.  If the
percentages we otherwise  would charge would exceed the guaranteed  maximum,  we
only charge the guaranteed maximum.

   
The guaranteed maximum cost of insurance charge depends on the risk class of the
Insured(s).  Also, if required by law,  unisex  charges will apply.  We base the
guaranteed  maximum  charges on the sex  distinct  1980  Commissioners  Standard
Ordinary Ultimate  Mortality Table, age last birthday unless unisex rates apply.
See Appendix D for a  description  of the maximum cost of insurance  charges for
different age gender and risk classes.
    

         What monthly charges apply only in the first 10 Policy Years? We deduct
the tax charge and the sales charge only in the first 10 Policy Years.

         How much is the sales  charge and when do I pay it? We deduct the sales
charge  during the first 10 Policy  Years.  It is a  percentage  of your Account
Value and is the  equivalent of 0.40% per year. We deduct this charge monthly in
advance. We take the charge from your Account Value each Monthly Processing Day.
The charge is a percentage of your then current  Account Value. If you surrender
your Policy or take a partial  withdrawal,  we may deduct a contingent  deferred
sales  charge,  as described  below in response to the question "How much is the
contingent deferred sales charge and when must I pay it?"

There are certain  circumstances which may result in reduction or elimination of
the sales charge.  These are exactly the same  circumstances  that may result in
reduction or elimination of the contingent  deferred sales charge,  as described
below in response to the question  "How much is the  contingent  deferred  sales
charge and when must I pay it?"

         How much is the tax  charge  and when do I pay it?  We  deduct  the tax
charge  during the first 10 Policy  Years.  It is a  percentage  of your Account
Value and is the  equivalent of 0.25% per year. We deduct this charge monthly in
advance. We take the charge from your Account Value each Monthly Processing Day.
The charge is a percentage of your then current  Account Value. If you surrender
your Policy or take a partial  withdrawal,  we deduct a contingent  deferred tax
charge,  as  described  below  in  response  to the  question  "How  much is the
contingent deferred tax charge and when must I pay it?"

         What are the contingent  charges?  The contingent  charges are: (1) the
contingent  deferred sales charge;  (2) the contingent  deferred tax charge; (3)
the maintenance fee; and (4) the transfer fee.

         How much is the  contingent  deferred  sales charge and when must I pay
it? The  contingent  deferred  sales charge is a percentage  of any amount being
surrendered  or withdrawn:  (a) during the first nine (9) Policy Years;  and (b)
that,  according to our rules,  is a withdrawal of Premium,  not a withdrawal of
Growth.  It may be assessed at the time of any partial  withdrawal or surrender.
The percentages are as follows:

From time to time, and to the extent  permitted by law, we may reduce the amount
of the sales charge and the contingent  deferred sales charge, the period during
which such charges apply,  or both,  when Policies are sold to persons or groups
of persons in a manner that  reduces  sales  expenses.  We would  consider  such
factors as: (a) the size and type of group;  (b) the amount of Premiums;  and/or
(c) other transactions where sales expenses are likely to be reduced.

   
No sales charge or contingent  deferred  sales charge is imposed when, as of the
Policy  Date,  the Owner or the  Insured  of a Policy  issued  pursuant  to this
Prospectus is: (a) any parent  company,  affiliate or subsidiary of ours; (b) an
officer, director, employee, retiree, sales representative, or in the case of an
affiliated  broker-dealer,  registered  representative  of such  company;  (c) a
director,  officer or trustee of any  underlying  mutual  fund;  (d) a director,
officer or employee of any  investment  manager,  sub-advisor,  transfer  agent,
custodian, auditing, legal or administrative services provider that is providing
investment management, advisory, transfer agency, custodianship, auditing, legal
and/or administrative  services to an underlying mutual fund or any affiliate of
such firm; (e) a director,  officer,  employee or registered representative of a
broker-dealer or insurance agency that has a then current selling agreement with
us  and/or  with  American  Skandia  Marketing,  Incorporated;  (f) a  director,
officer,  employee or authorized  representative of any firm providing us or our
affiliates  with  regular  legal,  actuarial,  auditing,  underwriting,  claims,
administrative,  computer support,  marketing, office or other services; (g) the
then current  spouse of any such person noted in (b) through (f) above;  (h) the
parents  of such  person  noted in (b)  through  (g)  above;  (i) such  person's
child(ren) or other legal dependent under the age of 21; and (j) the siblings of
any such persons noted in (b) through (h) above.
    

         How much is the contingent deferred tax charge, and when must I pay it?
The  contingent  deferred  tax  charge  is a  percentage  of  any  amount  being
surrendered  or withdrawn:  (a) during the first nine (9) Policy Years;  and (b)
that,  according to our rules,  is a withdrawal of Premium,  not a withdrawal of
Growth. It is assessed at the time of any partial  withdrawal or surrender.  The

         How much is the maintenance fee and when must I pay it? The maintenance
fee is $2.50 per month.  We take the charge from your Account  Value  monthly in
advance.  However,  we will waive the maintenance fee on any Monthly  Processing
Day if your Account Value is $75,000 or greater.

         How much is the transfer  fee, and when must I pay it? We charge $10.00
for every transfer after the 12th in each Policy Year.  That includes  transfers
into a Fixed  Allocation  and any transfers from a Fixed  Allocation  unless the
transfer  occurs  on a Policy  Anniversary.  For  this  purpose,  all  transfers
occurring  during the same  Valuation  Period are  considered  one transfer.  We
assess the transfer fee pro-rata against the Account Value being  transferred in
the same ratio as Account Value is being transferred to such investment options.
It is assessed at the time of any transfer subject to this fee.
    

         How are charges  deducted from Account  Value?  We deduct  charges from
your investment  options  pro-rata based on the Account Value in each investment
option.  If you maintain  Account  Value in more than one Fixed  Allocation in a
Policy Year, any applicable  charges will be deducted on a "last-in,  first-out"
basis,  starting  with  the last  Fixed  Allocation  that was made  prior to the
Monthly Processing Date the deduction is made. Upon surrender or withdrawal,  we
assess  charges  against the  investment  options  pro-rata in the same ratio as
Account Value is being withdrawn from such investment options.

   
         What charges do the Portfolios make? Each Portfolio  charges  different
fees.  Expenses  for the  Portfolios  are provided in the  "Variable  Investment
Options" section below. More detailed  information about fees and charges can be
found in the prospectuses for the Portfolios.
    

                                 Buying a Policy

         How do I buy a Policy? We require that our standards be met and that we
receive a Premium before we issue a Policy.  We need information to determine if
those  standards  have been met. We require you to submit an Application as part
of our  effort to gather  the  needed  information.  We may  require  additional
information,  including,  but not  limited  to,  some of the  Insured's  medical
records.  We may also require the Insured to take certain medical tests. As part
of our  standards,  we will not issue a Policy  if, as of the Policy  Date,  the
Insured would be less than Age 20 or older than Age 90. If our standards are not
met and we  received a  Premium,  we will  return to you an amount  equal to the
Premium. No interest will be paid.

   
To the  extent  permitted  by law,  we  reserve  the  right to  apply  differing
standards  of  insurability  to  persons  who may be part of a group  or who may
qualify,  for some other reason,  as part of a different class. Such classes may
include,  but are not limited to, persons  seeking a Policy who are applying all
or a portion  of  proceeds  from an  insurance  or  annuity  contract  issued by
American  Skandia or an  affiliate,  or proceeds of a  redemption  from  another
financial product, such as mutual funds, distributed by any of our affiliates or
by an  affiliate of any of the  Portfolios.  One of the criteria we may apply in
such a situation is that such  differing  standards of  insurability  apply only
after  maintaining  funds in such policy,  contract,  or financial product for a
specified period of time.
    

         What is the  Premium,  and when do I pay it?  The  minimum  Premium  we
generally accept is $10,000. We may accept less under certain circumstances. The
maximum we accept without prior approval by our home office is $500,000.  If you
are seeking a specific  Face Amount,  the Premium  will depend on the  Insured's
age, risk class and gender,  where permitted.  We will determine the Face Amount
using the Premium as the Net Single  Premium for the  Insured's  age, risk class
and gender, where permitted. You may submit Premium with the Application if: (a)
the  Insured  is not over age 80;  and (b) the  Insured  meets  certain  medical
underwriting  criteria.  If any portion of the Premium is to be received as part
of a replacement of a life  insurance,  endowment or annuity policy then we must
receive all our requirements In Writing for all such replacements as of the same
date  and any  additional  Premium  amounts  other  than  the  proceeds  of such
replacement  must be received by us at our Office at the same time as we receive
such requirements In Writing. Replacements include tax-free exchanges subject to
our acceptance. We will immediately return any Premium that should not have been
submitted  based on these  criteria.  If we would not  accept  Premium  with the
Application or you chose not to submit a Premium with the  Application,  we will
notify you if and when we have accepted the Application  and agreed,  subject to
submission of the Premium,  to issue a Policy.  We will not issue a Policy until
we receive  Premium at our Office.  We will not accept  Premium of which we were
not informed at the time you submit the Application to us.

You may choose to use our funds  transfer  authorization  procedures  as part of
buying a Policy.  If you elect this procedure,  you authorize us to redeem funds
to pay Premium from one or more financial  institutions with which you currently
maintain  funds.  You must do so In Writing  using a form that  authorizes us to
obtain such funds only if and when we have determined that the Application meets
our standards for issuing a Policy. If you use this procedure,  you must provide
us with  all  such  authorizations  simultaneously.  If you wish to also pay any
additional  amounts,  we must receive  such Premium  amounts at the same time we
receive such authorizations.

The standards we apply in reviewing the  Application  may depend on factors such
as the  proposed  Insured's  age and the  amount of Premium to be applied to the
Policy.  In certain  cases,  we may apply  simplified  standards.  However,  the
Premium  amount  you  state in the  Application  may be an  estimate  if you are
planning:  (a) to replace a life insurance,  endowment or annuity policy; (b) to
exchange a life insurance or endowment  policy; or (c) to use our funds transfer
authorization  procedures.  If we used  simplified  standards based on a Premium
estimate but the actual  amounts we receive to be applied as Premium  exceed the
limits for such standards, we reserve the right, to the extent permitted by law,
to not  issue a Policy  and  return  such  amounts  directly  to you or, on your
behalf,  to the financial  institution  from which the funds were  obtained.  We
cannot guarantee such institution will accept the return of such amounts.

   
         Am I covered while my Application is being reviewed? We may issue you a
temporary   insurance   agreement   during  the   "underwriting   period."   The
"underwriting  period"  is the  period  between  the time you first  apply for a
Policy  and the time we either  issue the  Policy or decide  not to issue one. A
temporary insurance agreement may be issued if: (a) the Application is completed
in full; (b) the Insured  answers "no" to certain  questions on the  Application
(these are  questions we use as  indicators  of whether we will issue  temporary
insurance); (c) the Insured is age 80 or younger; and (d) a Premium is submitted
with  the  Application.  If we issue a  temporary  insurance  agreement  and the
Insured (both Insureds if there are two Insureds)  dies during the  underwriting
period, the temporary insurance benefit will be payable if all of the conditions
of the temporary  insurance  agreement are satisfied.  The  underwriting  period
generally  will  not  exceed  45  days.  If the  Insured(s)  die(s)  during  the
underwriting  period and no  temporary  insurance  agreement  was in effect,  no
benefit is payable.
    

We will return any Premium  submitted with the Application if we cannot complete
underwriting  within 45 days from the date the  Application  is  signed.  If you
notify us promptly,  we will continue the underwriting process and notify you if
and when you meet our standards for issuing a Policy, at which time you may once
again send us a Premium.

Temporary  insurance ends 45 days after the  Application is signed,  even if the
underwriting period exceeds 45 days.

         What is the  temporary  insurance  benefit?  If the Insured  dies while
temporary  insurance is in effect, we pay the Beneficiary the lesser of the Face
Amount that would be in effect on the Policy Date if a Policy had been issued or
$250,000.  This  $250,000  maximum  applies to all temporary  insurance  then in
effect with us.  Premium  amounts in excess of this benefit are returned to you,
without interest or earnings.

   
         How and when is my Premium invested? We invest the Premium on the Issue
Date.  You can request that we allocate the Premium  using one or more  variable
investment options and/or a Fixed Allocation.  However,  we initially invest the
portion  of the  Premium  that you  indicate  to us that you  want  invested  in
variable  investment  options in the AST Money  Market  Sub-account,  unless you
submit a "return  waiver" In Writing before the Issue Date,  where  permitted by
law. A return  waiver is an election by you to invest as soon as possible in the
variable  investment options of your choice. If you submit a "return waiver" and
then decide to return your Policy during the "free-look" period, you may receive
back less than the Premium.  Generally, we transfer the Account Value in the AST
Money Market  Sub-account to the variable  investment  options you request as of
the Valuation Date which is on or immediately  after the 15th day after the date
we issue a Policy. However, we will make the transfer as of a later date if your
"free-look" period is longer than 10 days to meet state law requirements.
    

         What  happens  if I change my mind  about  buying a Policy?  You have a
"free-look"  period during which you can change your mind about buying a Policy.
The  free-look  period is never less than 10 days from the date you receive your
Policy.  It may be  longer  depending  on  the  applicable  state  law  and  the
circumstances  of your  purchase.  If you  return  your  Policy to us within the
free-look  period,  we generally will return the greater of Premium paid or your
Account Value plus any charges deducted from your Account Value. However, if you
have  submitted a "return  waiver," we will return only your Account  Value plus
any charges  deducted  from your  Account  Value.  This may be more or less than
Premium paid.

                           Variable Investment Options

   
         What  are  the  investment  objectives  and  policies  of the  variable
investment  options?  What  charges  are made by the  Portfolios  in which these
options invest? Each variable investment option is a Sub-account of the Separate
Account.  Each Sub-account invests  exclusively in one Portfolio.  Details about
the  investment  objectives,  policies,  risks,  costs  and  management  of  the
Portfolios are found in the  prospectuses  for the underlying  mutual funds. You
should  carefully  read such  prospectuses  for any  Portfolio  in which you are
interested.  To assist you in determining which Portfolios may be of interest to
you,  we  have  provided  below  a list  of  the  Portfolios,  their  investment
objectives (in italics) and a short,  summary description of their key policies.
Next to each  Portfolio's  investment  objective and policies is the  investment
management fee, other expenses, and the total annual expense for such Portfolio.
The total annual expense is the sum of the  investment  management fee and other
expenses. Each figure is stated as a percentage of the Portfolio's average daily
net  assets.  Except  as noted,  all  expenses  shown  are after any  applicable
reimbursement  or waiver of fees.  These  percentages  are fees for the calendar
year that ended December 31, 1997.  Those  Portfolios below that are marked with
an  asterisk  (*) have not been in  operation  for a full year.  Therefore,  the
expenses  shown  are  estimated  and  annualized.  The  underlying  mutual  fund
portfolio  information  was provided by the underlying  mutual funds and has not
been independently verified by the Company.

                        Transfers and Allocation Services

         May I  transfer  Account  Value  between  investment  options?  You may
transfer Account Value between investment options, but there are limits, as well
as potential charges, which are discussed above in the question "How much is the
transfer  fee,  and when must I pay it?" Unless you  instruct us  otherwise,  we
permit the agent of record to make transfers on your behalf.

   
         Are there any limits on transfers?  No transfers are permitted when the
Policy is in its "grace period." At the time of any transfer,  we require that a
minimum of $500.00 be allocated to any  investment  option in which you maintain
Account Value. If, at the time of a transfer there would be less than $500.00 in
an investment  option,  we will transfer the remaining Account Value pro rata to
the investment  option(s) that you were  transferring to. We retain the right to
impose  a limit  of not  more  than 12  transfers  per  Policy  Year,  including
transfers involving Fixed Allocations.  Unless such a limit is in effect,  there
is no limit on the number of  transfers  that only involve  variable  investment
options,  or the number of transfers  from variable  investment  options to make
Fixed  Allocations.  However,  we do limit each transfer from Fixed  Allocations
that are to be  effective  on any day  other  than a Policy  Anniversary  to the
greater of 25% of the Account Value in your Fixed  Allocations or $1,000. If you
make such a transfer from your Fixed  Allocations,  you cannot make another such
transfer until either 90 days has passed or the next Policy Anniversary  occurs.
We also  retain the right to refuse,  limit or delay  transfers,  either for one
Owner or a group of Owners, if we believe there may be adverse  consequences for
other Owners.
    

         What are `allocation  services'?  Allocation services are programs that
automatically transfer Account Value between investment options. Any limitations
on transfers from Fixed  Allocations  also apply if any allocation  services are
being utilized.

         What  allocation  services does American  Skandia  provide?  We support
dollar cost averaging and static rebalancing.

                                      Loans

         When  can I  take a  loan?  We  offer  loans  using  Account  Value  as
collateral.  We do not make  loans  available  during  the  first  Policy  Year.
Starting  after the first Policy Year,  we allow one loan each Policy Year.  The
Insured must be alive when you take a loan (if there are two Insureds,  at least
one must be alive when a loan is taken). Subject to our rules, we will establish
on the Issue Date a loan equal to the outstanding  indebtedness on previous life
insurance exchanged for a Policy.

   
         Is this type of loan  tax-free?  A loan from this Policy is treated for
income tax purposes as a distribution, similar to a partial withdrawal, in that:
(a)  amounts  are  deemed  to  come  first  from  any  gain in the  Policy;  (b)
distributions of gain are subject to income tax as ordinary  income;  and (c) if
the  distribution  occurs  before  the  taxpayer's  age 59 1/2,  there may be an
additional 10% tax on any gain distributed.

         How much is available for a loan? You can receive loans equal to 90% of
your current Account Value less any applicable  contingent deferred sales charge
and  contingent  deferred tax charge.  At the time you take any loan, the amount
then available for a new loan is the maximum otherwise  available less any Debt.
The minimum amount you may borrow is $500.

         What  happens to the  Account  Value if I take a loan?  When you take a
loan,  we move  Account  Value  equal to the  amount  of the loan  into the Loan
Account. Account Value in the Loan Account is maintained in our general account.
Unless  you give us  different  instructions,  we move  Account  Value  from the
variable  investment options and the Fixed Allocations in the same proportion as
your Account Value in the investment  options on the Valuation Date we move such
Account Value.

The impact of a loan on your Account  Value may be positive or negative.  At the
time a loan  is  taken,  there  is no  impact.  However,  if the  Account  Value
transferred  to the Loan  Account  would  earn more than  would be earned in the
investment  options,  the loan will have a positive impact on your Account Value
and on the Required Death Benefit.  If the Account Value transferred to the Loan
Account would earn less than would be earned in the investment options, the loan
will have a negative  impact on your  Account  Value and on the  Required  Death
Benefit.

         What is the interest  rate charged on any loan?  You owe us interest on
any loan at the rate of 6.0% per  year,  compounded  yearly,  in  arrears.  Each
Policy  Anniversary  that the loan is not repaid,  we add an amount equal to any
unpaid interest to your Debt.
    

         Does  Account  Value in the  Loan  Account  earn  interest?  We  credit
interest at the rate of 6.0% per year,  compounded  yearly, to the Account Value
maintained in the Loan Account that serves as collateral for a "preferred loan."
We credit  interest  at the rate of 4.0% per  year,  compounded  yearly,  to the
Account Value  maintained  in the Loan Account that serves as  collateral  for a
"standard loan."

         What are a "preferred  loan" and a "standard  loan"?  We determine what
portion of a loan is a "preferred loan" and what portion is a "standard loan" at
the time you take the loan.  Whether a loan is "preferred" or "standard" depends
on the source of the  collateral  to support the loan.  We consider  the Account
Value moved to the Loan  Account to come first from  Growth.  The portion of any
outstanding  loans  supported by Account Value drawn from Growth is treated as a
preferred loan. The portion of any outstanding  loans supported by Account Value
drawn from other than Growth is treated as a standard  loan.  A loan retains its
character as "preferred" or "standard" until repaid.

   
         Once  a  loan  is  taken,  does  American  Skandia  ever  require  more
`collateral'  in the Loan Account?  The Loan Account acts as collateral  for any
loans  from us,  so we need to make sure the Debt and the  Account  Value in the
Loan Account are equal to each other.  Therefore,  on each Policy Anniversary we
equalize  the Debt and the  Account  Value in the Loan  Account.  If the Debt is
larger due to outstanding loan interest,  we transfer Account Value equal to the
difference pro-rata from the investment options and add it to the Loan Account.

We also match up the Debt and the Loan Account when you repay any portion of the
Debt.  If the  Account  Value in the Loan  Account  then  exceeds  the Debt,  we
transfer the excess  pro-rata to the investment  options which you are utilizing
at that time. Any amount then allocated to the fixed option will be treated as a
separate Fixed Allocation.
    

         When  must I repay  the loan?  You are not  required  to repay the loan
while the  Insured is alive,  except when an amount is due to keep the Policy in
force or upon reinstatement.

         What happens at the  Insured's  death if I have not repaid the loan? If
there is any outstanding  Debt when Death Proceeds are due, we subtract the Debt
from the Death Benefit as part of the calculation of the Death Proceeds.

         What happens if I repay any portion of the loan?  The amount of Debt is
reduced by the amount of any loan repayment.  Any standard loan is repaid before
any  preferred  loan.  The  repayment  reduces the amount of principal  and loan
interest  proportionately based on the ratio between principal and loan interest
as of the  Valuation  Date the loan  repayment is applied.  We allocate any such
loan repayment to the variable  investment  and fixed options  pro-rata based on
the  Account  Value in each  investment  option  as of the  Valuation  Period we
receive your loan repayment.  Any amount then allocated to the fixed option will
be treated as a separate Fixed Allocation.

                               Partial Withdrawals

         When can I make a  partial  withdrawal?  We allow  partial  withdrawals
while the Insured is alive,  except  that,  where  permitted by law, you may not
take a partial withdrawal until after the end of the "free-look" period.

   
         How much is  available  as a partial  withdrawal?  The maximum  partial
withdrawal available at any time equals the then current maximum amount we would
permit as a loan under your Policy.  This amount is equal to 90% of your current
Account  Value  less  any  applicable   contingent  deferred  sales  charge  and
contingent  deferred tax charge.  The minimum amount of a partial  withdrawal is
$500.00.
    

         What happens to the Account Value if I take a partial withdrawal?  When
you take a partial  withdrawal,  we reduce your Account Value by an amount equal
to  the  amount  of  the  partial  withdrawal.  Unless  you  give  us  different
instructions, we take Account Value from the variable investment options and the
Fixed Allocations in the same proportion as your Account Value in the investment
options on the Valuation Date we take such Account  Value.  If you have multiple
Fixed  Allocations,  amounts  are taken on a "last in,  first  out"  basis.  Any
Account Value in the Loan Account is not available for a partial withdrawal.

         Is there a charge for a partial  withdrawal?  We charge any  applicable
contingent  deferred  sales  charge and  contingent  deferred  tax charge on the
portion of any partial  withdrawal that is not treated as a "free withdrawal" or
for which we waive such charges under the medically-related waiver provision. We
take these charges  pro-rata from the investment  options from which we take the
Account Value as a result of the partial withdrawal.

         What  amount can I take as a free  withdrawal?  In any Policy  Year the
maximum amount you can take as a free withdrawal is the greater of Growth or 10%
of the Premium.  The following  examples may help show what this means. For each
example, assume that the Premium was $50,000.

         (a) For this example  assume the Account  Value as of the Valuation Day
we process your partial withdrawal is $60,000.  You request a partial withdrawal
of  $25,000.  Assume  also  that  you  have  not  requested  any  other  partial
withdrawals  during this Policy Year. The free withdrawal  amount is the greater
of  Growth,  which is the  current  Account  Value  ($60,000)  less the  Premium
($50,000),  or $10,000, and 10% of the Premium, which is $5,000.  Therefore,  we
treat  $10,000  as the  free  withdrawal  portion  of this  partial  withdrawal.
Assuming  that this partial  withdrawal  request  occurs  during the  "surrender
charge period," and there is no subsequent  Growth in that Policy Year, we would
assess the then  applicable  contingent  deferred  sales  charge and  contingent
deferred tax charge on $15,000,  which is the portion of the partial  withdrawal
that exceeds the free withdrawal  amount.  The contingent  deferred sales charge
and  contingent  deferred  tax  charge  would  apply to the full  amount  of any
subsequent  partial  withdrawal you request during the same Policy Year that was
not eligible for a medically-related waiver.

         (b) For this example  assume the Account  Value as of the Valuation Day
we process your partial  withdrawal  request for the  "maximum  free  withdrawal
amount" is $47,000.  Assume also that you have not  requested  any other partial
withdrawals  during this Policy Year. The free withdrawal  amount is the greater
of  Growth,  which is the  current  Account  Value  ($47,000)  less the  Premium
($50,000),  or $3,000, and 10% of the Premium, which is $5,000.  Therefore,  the
maximum free withdrawal amount is $5,000.  Assuming that this partial withdrawal
request occurs during the "surrender  charge period," and there is no subsequent
Growth in that  Policy  Year,  the  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  and the
contingent  deferred  tax charge  would  apply to any  subsequent  surrender  or
partial   withdrawal   that   Policy   Year   that  was  not   eligible   for  a
medically-related waiver.

          Does  a  partial  withdrawal  affect  the  Death  Benefit?  A  partial
withdrawal  reduces the Required  Death  Benefit.  The Required Death Benefit is
reduced  because the Account Value,  which is used in  calculating  the Required
Death Benefit,  has been reduced.  It also reduces the Guaranteed  Minimum Death
Benefit in the same  proportion  as the Account  Value is reduced by the partial
withdrawal.  The effect on the  Guaranteed  Minimum  Death  Benefit is described
above  in  response  to the  question  "What  is the  Guaranteed  Minimum  Death
Benefit."

         Can I put back funds taken as a partial withdrawal?  No.

                                   Surrenders

         When can I surrender my Policy? You can surrender your Policy after the
end of the free-look period as long as the Insured is alive.

         What is paid out when a Policy is  surrendered?  If you  surrender  the
Policy, we will pay you the Cash Value.

                            Accelerated Death Benefit

         What is an accelerated  death benefit?  An accelerated death benefit is
pre-payment  to the Insured of a portion of the Death  Proceeds.  The maximum we
will pay,  before any  reductions,  is the lesser of 50% of the  Required  Death
Benefit or $250,000.  The actual  amount is reduced by a 12-month  interest rate
discount  (currently  6.0%) and a pro-rata  portion of any Debt.  We reserve the
right to change the interest rate discount percentage.

         When will  American  Skandia  make such a payment?  We will make such a
payment  one time,  where  allowed by law,  based on the  Owner's  request.  The
Insured may not request such a payment unless the Insured is also the Owner.  We
only make the  payment  if we receive  all our  requirements.  Our  requirements
include,  but are not limited to, proof  satisfactory  to us In Writing that the
Insured (the last surviving Insured if there are two Insureds) became terminally
ill, as defined in your  Policy:  (a) at least 30 days after the Issue Date;  or
(b) as a result of an accident that occurred after the Issue Date. To the extent
permitted by law, we will change our  procedures  in relation to this benefit or
the  definition  of  terminally  ill or any  other  applicable  term in order to
maintain the tax-free status of any amounts paid out under this provision.

         What happens to the remaining benefits if American Skandia makes such a
payment? Any such payment reduces the Account Value, the Premium, the Guaranteed
Minimum  Death  Benefit  and any Debt in the same  ratio as the  Required  Death
Benefit is reduced as of the Valuation Period such a payment is made. You should
consult a tax advisor on the tax consequences of such a payment. Please refer to
Appendix B for a  hypothetical  illustration  of the  accelerated  death benefit
provision.

                            Medically-Related Waiver

         What is a  medically-related  waiver? The  medically-related  waiver is
available  by  rider  to  the  Policy,  currently  with  no  charge  to  you.  A
medically-related  waiver is our waiver of the contingent  deferred sales charge
and the contingent  deferred tax charge that would  otherwise apply to a partial
withdrawal  or  surrender.  Note that  while the  accelerated  death  benefit is
payable to the Insured, the medically-related  waiver is a benefit,  while based
on the  Insured's  life,  that is of value to the  Owner,  who  normally  is the
recipient of amounts paid as a partial withdrawal or surrender.

         When would  American  Skandia  waive these  charges?  We will  consider
waiving the contingent deferred sales charge and contingent deferred tax charge,
where allowed by law,  based on your request.  We only waive these charges if we
receive all of our requirements.  Our requirements  include, but are not limited
to proof  satisfactory  to us In Writing  that the Insured  (the last  surviving
Insured if there is more than one Insured) has  continuously  been confined to a
long term care facility, such as a nursing home or a hospital, as defined in the
rider, and that such confinement started after the Issue Date.

         Are there any restrictions on  medically-related  waivers? We will only
consider  waiving  the  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  and the  contingent
deferred tax charge on a partial  withdrawal  or  surrender up to $500,000.  The
$500,000 maximum will apply to a partial withdrawal(s) or surrender,  regardless
of when  taken,  on any life  insurance  policy or  annuity  contract  issued by
American  Skandia  where the Insured  under this Policy is named as the Insured,
Owner or Annuitant under the other policy or contract.

         What happens to the remaining benefits if American Skandia makes such a
payment in connection with a partial withdrawal?  A partial withdrawal for which
we  grant a  medically-related  waiver  has the  same  impact  on the  remaining
benefits that results from any other partial withdrawal. We simply do not deduct
the contingent  deferred  sales charge and  contingent  deferred tax charge that
otherwise would apply.

                                      Risks

         What are the risks, and who takes the risks? We bear the risk that, for
all the Policies  issued,  when  considered  together,  our expenses  exceed our
charges,  including  the expense  for  providing  from our  general  account the
difference  at death between the Account  Value and the Death  Benefit.  We also
bear the  investment  and  reinvestment  risk in  providing  interest  crediting
guarantees  to Fixed  Allocations  and to the Loan  Account,  as well as for any
settlement  options that assume a fixed rate of return. We also bear the risk in
guaranteeing the Guaranteed  Minimum Death Benefit if your Policy lapses and you
do not have any Debt. You bear the investment risk when allocating Account Value
to any variable  investment option,  since that will affect the amount available
for any loans,  partial  withdrawals or surrender.  Any irrevocable  beneficiary
bears  the risk as to the  Death  Proceeds,  which are  affected  by  investment
performance  of the investment  options,  the age at which the Insured dies, any
loan or withdrawal activity by the Owner prior to the Insured's death or payment
of an accelerated death benefit.

                                  Other Rights

         Do I have any other rights if I buy a Policy?  There are certain  other
ownership rights you may exercise under a Policy.  Some of these rights include,
but are not limited to, the following. You may name a Beneficiary.  You may make
that designation  "irrevocable," which means it cannot be changed. If you do not
designate the  Beneficiary  as  irrevocable,  you retain the right to change the
Beneficiary  before the Insured dies.  You may  transfer,  pledge or assign your
Policy,  which may trigger a currently  taxable event. You should only transfer,
pledge or assign your Policy after consulting with a competent tax advisor.  You
may exercise  voting rights in relation to the  applicable  Portfolios.  Some of
these rights may be limited depending on the usage of your Policy, especially if
it  is  held  in  connection  with  certain  retirement  plans  designed  to  be
"qualified" plans under the Code.

     
                            The Separate Account

         What supports  American  Skandia's  obligation to me if I buy a Policy?
The benefits  provided by the Policy are our obligations.  The assets supporting
our obligations  equaling the Account Value allocated to the variable investment
options are held in our  Separate  Account F. We maintain  assets in our general
account to support our obligations:  (1) equal to the Account Value allocated to
the fixed option;  (2) equal to the Account  Value in the Loan Account;  (3) for
the portion of the Death Proceeds  greater than the Account  Value;  (4) for any
settlement option; and (5) for any other obligation we may have in relation to a
Policy.


         The Separate  Account was  established  under the laws of  Connecticut.
Assets in the Separate  Account may support  obligations  created in relation to
the Policies described in this Prospectus or other policies we offer. We are the
legal owner of the assets in the  Separate  Account.  Income,  gains and losses,
whether  or not  realized,  are  credited  or charged  to the  Separate  Account
according to the terms of the Policies and any other  policies  supported by the
assets in the Separate  Account  without  regard to our other  income,  gains or
losses or to the income,  gains or losses in any other of our separate accounts.
We will  maintain  assets in the  Separate  Account with a total market value at
least equal to the reserve and other liabilities we must maintain in relation to
the life insurance policies  supported by such assets.  These assets may only be
charged with liabilities that arise from such life insurance policies.

         Separate  Account F is  registered  with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  (the  "SEC")  under  the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940 as a unit
investment trust, which is a type of investment  company.  This does not involve
any supervision by the SEC of the investment  policies,  management or practices
of the Separate  Account or of us. The Separate  Account meets the definition of
"separate account" under the federal securities law.

         The  only  Sub-accounts  available  to you are  those  offered  in this
Prospectus.  These  Sub-accounts  are available as investment  options for other
policies  we offer.  Sub-accounts  are  permitted  to invest  in  Portfolios  we
consider suitable. The Portfolios in which the Sub-accounts invest are available
to Sub-accounts of other separate  accounts,  including separate accounts we use
in  relation  to a number of  variable  annuities.  Separate  accounts  of other
insurers  and of  various  qualified  retirement  plans  may also  invest in the
Portfolios.

                                      Taxes

         What are the taxes connected to the Policy? Federal and state tax laws,
as well as the  interpretations  of those laws,  change. In addition,  we do not
know your particular  circumstances,  which is one of a number of reasons why we
cannot give you tax advice.  You should consult a  professional  tax advisor for
tax advice for your  particular  situation.  You should also be sure to read the
"Additional Tax  Considerations"  section  appearing  later in this  Prospectus,
which includes,  but is not limited to, information regarding estate taxes. What
we do provide are some brief summary  answers to the following  questions  about
Federal income taxes.

         Is gain in the Policy taxed every year? Under most  circumstances,  any
gain in the Policy is not taxed currently.  However, if you assign or pledge the
Policy,  we expect to report any gain in the Policy as then currently taxable as
ordinary income. In addition,  except in the case of a partial  assignment as of
the Policy Date, we expect to report gain in the Policy as currently  taxable in
each tax year the assignment remains in effect.
    
         How are  amounts  that I receive  before  the  Insured's  death  taxed?
Amounts  you receive as a partial  withdrawal,  a loan or if you  surrender  the
Policy are deemed  for  income tax  purposes  to come first from any gain in the
Policy.  Any gain is taxed as  ordinary  income.  Any  portion of these types of
distributions  representing  gain  in the  Policy  may be  subject  to a 10% tax
penalty if taken before your age 59 1/2.

         What are the taxes due on the Death Proceeds? Under most circumstances,
the Beneficiary does not pay any income tax on the Death Proceeds.

                              Available Information

   
         How can I find out more about this offer?  You first should  review the

MISCELLANEOUS  PROVISIONS AND ADDITIONAL DETAILS: The following sections provide
additional information you should consider before purchasing a Policy.

                            Providing Services to You

   
You can reach us by telephone at  1-888-554-3348 or through our Internet Website
at  http://www.americanskandia.com.  We may  require  that you  provide  us with
proper  identification before we release information about your Policy or accept
instructions  received over the phone,  the Internet or via any other electronic
means.   We  may  require  that  you  provide   your  Social   Security  or  tax
identification  number.  We  also  may  require  you  to  present  the  personal
identification  number  ("PIN") we provide  you after we issue a Policy.  To the
extent permitted by law or regulation,  neither we nor any person  authorized by
us will be responsible for any claim,  loss,  liability or expense in connection
with a transaction,  including but not limited to a transfer between  investment
options,  over the  phone,  the  Internet  or via any  other  electronic  means.
However,  this will only be the case if we or such authorized  person acted: (a)
in  good  faith  reliance  that  you  authorized  the  transaction;  and  (b) on
reasonable  procedures  to  identify  you or your  designee  though a number  of
verification  methods.  These  methods may include  taping phone  conversations,
requesting  Social  Security or tax  identification  numbers,  PINs,  confirming
electronic mail addresses,  or similar means. We may be liable for losses due to
unauthorized  or fraudulent  instructions  should we not follow such  reasonable
procedures.
    

We may require  that you submit  forms In Writing for certain  transactions.  We
require the written consent of all joint Owners for any transaction for which we
require the Owner's written consent.

                                  Designations

Certain  designations  apply  to a  Policy  - the  Owner,  the  Insured  and the
Beneficiary.  All designations  are subject to our rules and our acceptance.  We
assume all designations,  other than the Insured,  are revocable unless you tell
us otherwise. You should consult with a competent tax advisor on the income tax,
estate and inheritance tax implications of various designations. You should also
consult  with a  competent  legal  advisor  as to the  implications  of  certain
designations in relation to an estate,  bankruptcy and community property, where
applicable, as well as other matters.

We assume the  Insured is the Owner  unless you tell us  otherwise.  If you name
more than one Owner, all rights reserved to Owners are then held jointly. Naming
someone  to be the Owner  other  than the payor of the  Premium  may have  gift,
estate or other tax implications.

We assume the  Beneficiary  is you or your estate  unless you tell us otherwise.
You may name more than one primary and more than one contingent Beneficiary.

                              Net Investment Factor

For each Sub-account the initial Unit Price was $10.00.  The Unit Price for each
subsequent  Valuation  Period is the net  investment  factor for that  Valuation
Period,  multiplied by the Unit Price for the  immediately  preceding  Valuation
Period. The net investment factor is (1) divided by (2), less (3), where:

         (1)   is the net result of:

              (a) the net asset value per share of the  underlying  Portfolio at
                  the end of the  current  Valuation  Period  plus the per share
                  amount of any dividend or capital gain  distribution  declared
                  and unpaid by the Portfolio during that Valuation Period; plus
                  or minus

              (b) any per share charge or credit during the Valuation  Period as
                  a  provision  for  taxes  attributable  to  the  operation  or
                  maintenance of that Sub-account.

         (2) is the net result of:

              (a) the net  asset  value per share  plus any  declared  or unpaid
                  dividends per share of the underlying Portfolio shares held in
                  that Sub-account at the end of the preceding Valuation Period;
                  plus or minus

              (b) any per share charge or credit during the preceding  Valuation
                  Period as a provision for taxes  attributable to the operation
                  or maintenance of the Sub-account.

         (3) is the  mortality  and expense risk charges and the  administration
charge.

                               Allocation Programs

We may provide  administrative  support for various programs that  automatically
transfer  Account Value between certain  investment  options at scheduled times.
These include dollar cost averaging and static rebalancing (periodic rebalancing
of Account Values between investment options to conform to preset  percentages).
However,  we only offer to support  such  allocation  programs  according to our
rules.  While we are offering to support  these  programs as of the date of this
Prospectus, we do not guarantee to support these programs at all times.

   
We may also provide  administrative support for various allocation programs that
may be made available by your financial professional.  These may include various
asset allocation and market timing  programs.  In connection with such programs,
we may  support  periodic  withdrawals  from your  Policy to pay your  financial
professional.  We only offer to support  such  programs  according to our rules.
These rules may include,  but are not limited to, receipt of your  authorization
In  Writing  permitting  a  financial  professional  to make  transfers  between
investment  options  on your  behalf,  or to  enroll  your  Policy in one of the
allocation programs for which we provide administrative  support. We will permit
the agent of record to make  transfers  on your behalf  unless you give us other
instructions.

Any  financial  professional  you authorize may or may not be appointed by us as
our agent  for the sale of  Policies.  However,  we do not  engage  any agent of
record or any third parties to offer investment allocation services of any type,
so that  persons or firms  offering  such  services do so  independent  from any
agency relationship they may have with us for the sale of Policies. We therefore
take no responsibility for the investment  allocations and transfers  transacted
on your behalf by such third parties, in accordance with any allocation programs
employed by such third parties or any investment allocation recommendations made
by such  third  parties.  While we are  offering  support  for a number of these
programs as of the date of this Prospectus,  we do not support all such programs
and do not guarantee to always continue  support for those programs we currently
support or may support in the future.
    

                            Limitations on Transfers

We retain  the right to refuse  or delay  transfers,  either  for one Owner or a
group of  Owners,  if we  believe  that:  (a)  excessive  trading  or a specific
transfer request or group of transfer requests may have a detrimental  effect on
Unit Prices or the share prices of the Portfolios; or (b) we are informed by one
or more of the  Portfolios  that the purchase or  redemption  of shares is to be
restricted  because of  excessive  trading or a  specific  transfer  or group of
transfers is deemed to have a detrimental effect on the share prices of affected
Portfolios.

                          Death During the Grace Period

If the Insured  dies during a grace period while there is any Debt and before we
receive any payment,  we deduct the unpaid  charges from the Death  Benefit when
calculating the Death Proceeds. For more information on the grace period, please
refer to the  response to the  question  "Do I have to  maintain a minimum  Cash
Value?"

                                  Reinstatement

You may apply for reinstatement of the Policy if it lapses. We must receive this
application  In  Writing  at our  Office  within 3 years  of the date the  lapse
occurred as measured from the end of the grace period.  We may require  evidence
of insurability  satisfactory to us. In order to reinstate your Policy, you also
must pay us a  reinstatement  amount,  including any applicable  charges and any
Debt.

                                    Maturity

A Policy "matures" as of the Policy  Anniversary on which the Insured is Age 95.
If there are two Insureds,  a Policy  "matures" as of the Policy  Anniversary on
which the  younger  Insured is Age 95 or would  have been Age 95 if the  younger
Insured  is then  deceased.  We will pay out the  Cash  Value  once  the  Policy
matures.  The Policy  will then end,  and we will not have any more  obligations
under the Policy.  We may provide a rider,  where  permitted by law, that allows
the Policy to mature at a later date if there is adequate guidance  available to
us regarding the tax treatment of all Policies if we were to permit extension of
the maturity date.  Should we permit such  extension of the maturity,  we advise
you to seek tax advice regarding your specific circumstances should you want the
Policy to mature at a later  date.  If the  Policy is no longer  treated as life
insurance after any extension of maturity,  gain in the Policy may be taxable to
you in the year of the  original  maturity  and all or a  portion  of the  Death
Proceeds may be taxable to the beneficiary.

                              Pricing Transactions

We "price" charges, transfers, distributions and payments on the dates indicated
below.  If such  transactions  are  scheduled to occur on other than a Valuation
Day, we price such transactions as of the following Valuation Period.

   
         (1) We  price  "scheduled"  transactions  such as  monthly  deductions,
transfers and  distributions as of the date such  transactions are so scheduled.
However,  if a  transaction  is  "scheduled"  to  occur  on a day  other  than a
Valuation  Day,  such  transaction  will be  processed  and  priced  on the last
Valuation  Day  prior to the  scheduled  transaction.  "Scheduled"  transactions
include,  but are not limited to, all charges  deducted on a Monthly  Processing
Date, equalization of Debt and the Account Value in the Loan Account on a Policy
Anniversary,  transfers  under a dollar  cost  averaging  program  or  transfers
previously  scheduled  with us at our Office as part of any  rebalancing,  asset
allocation or similar program, or any program of scheduled distributions.

         (2) We price  "unscheduled"  transactions  such as transfers,  loans or
partial withdrawals that are not subject to any medical waiver as of the date we
receive at our Office the request for such transactions. "Unscheduled" transfers
include any transfers  processed in conjunction  with any market timing program,
or transfers  not  previously  scheduled  with us at our Office  pursuant to any
rebalancing,  asset  allocation  or  similar  program  which  you  employ or you
authorize  to be  employed  on your  behalf.  "Unscheduled"  transfers  received
pursuant to an authorization to accept transfer instructions using voice or data
transmission over the phone are priced as of the Valuation Period we receive the
request at our Office for such transactions. We price unscheduled payments as of
the date we receive such amounts at our Office.  These include loan  repayments,
payments  to keep a Policy in effect  during a grace  period or a  reinstatement
payment.
    

         (3) We price  surrenders,  withdrawals  subject  to a  medical  waiver,
accelerated  death benefit payments and payment of Death Proceeds as of the date
we receive at our Office all materials we require for such transactions and such
materials are satisfactory to us.

                              Delaying Transactions

   
We may defer any distribution or transfer from a Fixed Allocation or any payment
under a fixed settlement option for a period not to exceed the lesser of six (6)
months or the period  permitted by law. If we defer a  distribution  or transfer
from any Fixed Allocation or any payment under a settlement option for more than
thirty days, or less where  required by law, we pay interest at the minimum rate
required  by law but not less than 3% per year on the  amount  deferred.  We may
defer  payment of  proceeds  of any  distribution  from any  Sub-account  or any
transfer from a  Sub-account  for a period not to exceed seven (7) calendar days
from the date the transaction is effected.  This is a delay in payment only, and
is not a delay in the pricing of any such distribution or transfer. Any deferral
period begins on the date such  distribution  or transfer  would  otherwise have
been transacted.
    

All  procedures,  including  distributions,   based  on  the  valuation  of  the
Sub-accounts may be postponed during the period: (1) the New York Stock Exchange
is closed (other than customary holidays or weekends) or trading on the New York
Stock  Exchange is  restricted  as  determined  by the SEC;  (2) the SEC permits
postponement  and so orders;  or (3) the SEC determines that an emergency exists
making valuation or disposal of securities not reasonably practical.

                                     Voting

You  have  voting  rights  in  relation  to  Account  Value  maintained  in  the
Sub-accounts.  You do not have  voting  rights  in  relation  to  Account  Value
maintained in any Fixed Allocations, in the Loan Account or in relation to fixed
payments under a settlement option.

   
We will vote shares of the  Portfolios in which the  Sub-accounts  invest in the
manner directed by Owners, unless we, in our sole discretion,  determine that we
are required by law or regulation to vote  otherwise.  Owners have voting rights
equal to the number of shares  represented by the Sub-account Units attributable
to their Policy.
    

We will vote the shares  attributable to assets held in the Sub-accounts  solely
for us rather  than on behalf  of  Owners,  or any share as to which we have not
received instructions, in the same manner and proportion as the shares for which
we have received  instructions.  We will do so separately  for each  Sub-account
from  various  classes  that may  invest  in the  same  underlying  mutual  fund
portfolio.

The number of votes for a Portfolio will be determined as of the record date for
such  Portfolio  as chosen by its board of  trustees or board of  directors,  as
applicable.  We will furnish Owners with proper forms and proxies to enable them
to instruct us how to vote.

You may  instruct us how to vote on the  following  matters:  (a) changes to the
board of  trustees  or board of  directors,  as  applicable;  (b)  changing  the
independent  accountant;  (c)  approval  of changes to the  investment  advisory
agreement or adoption of a new investment advisory agreement;  (d) any change in
the fundamental  investment policy; and (e) any other matter requiring a vote of
the shareholders.

With  respect  to  approval  of changes to the  investment  advisory  agreement,
approval of a new  investment  advisory  agreement or any change in  fundamental
investment policy,  only Owners maintaining  Account Value as of the record date
in a Sub-account  investing in the applicable  Portfolio will instruct us how to
vote on the  matter,  pursuant  to the  requirements  of Rule  18f-2  under  the
Investment Company Act of 1940.

                         Transfers, Assignments, Pledges

Generally,  your rights in a Policy may be  transferred,  assigned or pledged at
any time. These  transactions may be subject to income taxes and certain penalty
taxes.  You may transfer,  assign or pledge your rights to another person at any
time,  prior to the death upon  which the Death  Benefit  is  payable.  You must
request a transfer or provide us a copy of the assignment In Writing. A transfer
or assignment is subject to our acceptance.  We will not be deemed to know of or
be obligated under any assignment  prior to our receipt and acceptance  thereof.
We assume no responsibility for the validity or sufficiency of any assignment.

                                     Reports

   
We send any statements  and reports  required by applicable law or regulation to
you at your last known address of record.  You should  therefore  give us prompt
notice of any address change.  We reserve the right, to the extent  permitted by
law,  to  provide  any  prospectus,   prospectus   supplements,   confirmations,
statements  and reports  required by applicable law or regulation to you through
our Internet Website at  http://www.americanskandia.com  or any other electronic
means.  We  send a  confirmation  statement  to you  each  time  an  unscheduled
transaction is made affecting  Account Value.  Such  transactions will generally
include changes in investment  allocation or transfers among investment options,
loans and loan repayments,  partial  surrenders or withdrawals,  and any charges
associated with such unscheduled transactions. We also send quarterly statements
detailing the activity affecting your Policy during the prior quarter, including
all scheduled and unscheduled transactions. To the extent permitted by law, some
types of scheduled  transactions  will only be  confirmed on a quarterly  basis.
Such transactions will generally include those  pre-authorized  charges deducted
on the Monthly Processing Date. You may request additional  reports.  We reserve
the right to charge up to $50 for each such additional report. You should review
the  information in these  statements  carefully.  You must report all errors or
corrections to us at our Office  immediately to assure proper  crediting to your
Policy.  For  transactions  that  are  confirmed  immediately,   we  assume  all
transactions  are accurate  unless you notify us otherwise  within 30 days after
the date of the  transaction.  For  transactions  that are only confirmed on the
quarterly  statement,  we assume all transactions are accurate unless you notify
us within 30 days of the end of the  calendar  quarter.  We may also send you or
make available  electronically through our Internet Website an annual report and
a  semi-annual  report  containing   financial  statements  for  the  applicable
Sub-accounts, as of December 31 and June 30, respectively.
    

                                Incontestability

We may not contest the validity of a Policy  after it has been in effect  during
the  Insured's  lifetime  for two years  from the Issue  Date.  If there are two
Insureds,  this  applies to the  lifetime  of either  Insured.  If the Policy is
reinstated, to the extent permitted by law, we may not contest the validity of a
Policy  after  it has  been  in  effect  for  two  years  from  the  date of the
reinstatement.

                                     Suicide

   
If an Insured  commits  suicide  within two years of the Issue Date (or whatever
maximum period is permitted under law) or the date of a reinstatement if allowed
by law,  the Death  Benefit  will be the greater  of: (a) Premium  paid less any
outstanding Debt and any partial  withdrawals;  or (b) the Cash Value. All other
requirements as to calculation and payment of Death Proceeds will apply.
    

                                  Misstatement

We will  adjust the amount of the Death  Proceeds to conform to the facts if the
age or gender of an Insured is incorrectly stated. We will do so as specified in
the Policy and as permitted by law.

                                   Backdating

   
Depending on your Age at the time you apply for a Policy, it may be advantageous
to have the  Policy  Date be  earlier  than  the  Issue  Date.  This is known as
"backdating."  Doing so may enable you to  qualify  for lower cost of  insurance
charges. We only permit backdating if: (a) doing so will qualify you for a lower
cost of  insurance  charge;  and (b) the Policy Date is the no earlier  than the
date the Application is signed and in no case more than 90 days before the Issue
Date.  If you elect  backdating,  on the Issue Date we will deduct  charges that
would have been deducted as of the Policy Date and any Monthly  Processing Dates
between the Policy Date and the Issue Date.  To the extent  permitted by law, we
do not guarantee  any increase in the Account  Value for the period  between the
Policy  Date and the Issue Date.  However,  we also  reserve  the right,  to the
extent permitted by law, to credit you a fixed rate of interest for such period.
    
                            
                           Policy Loans on Exchanges

   
Subject to our rules,  we will establish a loan on a Policy that you purchase as
part of an exchange that is not subject to current  taxation in accordance  with
Section 1035 of the Code.  The amount of the loan will be equal to the loan that
was in effect before you surrendered your prior policy. Under our rules we will,
among other  things,  increase  the  Account  Value as of the Policy Date by the
amount of the loan and allocate that portion of the  increased  Account Value to
the Loan Account as collateral  for the loan. By increasing  the Account  Value,
there will be a corresponding increase in the Face Amount and the Required Death
Benefit.  In addition,  for purposes of determining the Guaranteed Minimum Death
Benefit,  we will deem the "Premium" to be the amounts paid plus the loan amount
as of the Policy Date.  Any  contingent  deferred  sales  charge and  contingent
deferred  tax charge  will be based on the  actual  amounts  received,  not such
amounts  plus the  amount of the loan.  All  charges  that are  calculated  as a
percentage of your Account Value will increase because the Account Value will be
increased by the amount of the loan.
    

                          Resolving Material Conflicts

   
The Portfolios may be available to registered  separate accounts offering either
or both life and annuity  contracts of insurance  companies not affiliated  with
us. We also may offer life  insurance  policies  and/or  annuity  contracts that
offer  different  variable  investment  options  from those  offered  under this
Policy, but which invest in the same Portfolios. It is possible that differences
might arise  between our  Separate  Account F and one or more  accounts of other
insurance  companies  which  offer  a  Portfolio  as a  sub-account.  It is also
possible that differences  might arise between a Sub-account  offered under this
Policy and variable  investment  options  offered under different life insurance
policies or annuities we offer, even though such different  variable  investment
options  invest in the same  Portfolio.  In some cases,  it is possible that the
differences could be considered "material conflicts." Such a "material conflict"
could  also  arise due to  changes  in the law (such as state  insurance  law or
Federal tax law) which affect either these  different life and annuity  separate
accounts or differing life insurance policies and annuities. It could also arise
by reason of  differences in voting  instructions  of persons with voting rights
under our policies and/or annuities and those of other  companies,  persons with
voting  rights under  annuities  and those with rights under life  policies,  or
persons  with voting  rights under one of our life  policies or  annuities  with
those under other life  policies or annuities we offer.  It could also arise for
other reasons.  We will monitor events so we can identify how to respond to such
conflicts.  If such a  conflict  occurs,  we will take the  necessary  action to
protect  persons  with  voting  rights  under  our life  policies  or  annuities
vis-a-vis  those with rights under life  policies or annuities  offered by other
insurance  companies.  We will also take the necessary action to treat equitably
persons with voting  rights under this Policy and any persons with voting rights
under any other life policy or annuity we offer.
    

                      Modification of the Separate Account

   
We  reserve  the  right  to do any or all of  the  following:  (a)  combine  any
Sub-account(s) with any other Sub-account(s);  (b) combine Separate Account F or
a portion thereof with other separate accounts;  (c) deregister Separate Account
F under the Investment  Company Act of 1940; (d) operate Separate Account F as a
management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or in any
other form  permitted  by law;  (e) make  changes  required by any change in the
Securities Act of 1933,  the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 or the Investment
Company Act of 1940;  (f) make  changes  that are  necessary to maintain the tax
status of your  Policy  under the Code;  and (g) make  changes  required  by any
change in other  Federal or state laws  relating to life  insurance  policies in
general or variable life insurance policies in particular.

We may also make  additional  Sub-accounts  available  to you from time to time.
These  Sub-accounts  will invest in Portfolios we believe to be suitable for the
Policy. We may or may not make a new Sub-account  available to invest in any new
portfolio of one of the current  underlying mutual funds should such a portfolio
be made available to Separate Account F.
    

We may eliminate  Sub-accounts,  combine two or more  Sub-accounts or substitute
one or more new  underlying  mutual funds or  portfolios  for the one in which a
Sub-account  is  invested.  Substitutions  may  be  necessary  if we  believe  a
Portfolio  no longer  suits the purpose of the Policy.  This may happen due to a
change in laws or  regulations,  or a change  in the  investment  objectives  or
restrictions of a Portfolio, or because the Portfolio is no longer available for
investment,  or for some other reason.  We would obtain prior  approval from the
insurance  department  of our state of domicile,  if so required by law,  before
making such a  substitution,  combination,  deletion or addition.  We also would
obtain  prior  approval  from the SEC so long as required by law,  and any other
required approvals before making such a substitution,  combination,  deletion or
addition.

                                 Entire Contract

For any Policy  issued,  the entire  contract  between you and us  includes  the
Policy form and any of the following which may be attached to the Policy: riders
or endorsements,  the copy of any Application and  endorsements.  All statements
made in any Application are deemed to be representations and not warranties.  No
statement  is used to void a Policy or defend a claim  unless it is contained in
any Application attached to the Policy.

Only our  President,  one of our Vice  Presidents or our Secretary may change or
waive any  provisions of a Policy.  Any change or waiver must be In Writing.  To
the extent permitted by law, we are not bound by any promises or representations
made by or to any other person.

                          Additional Tax Considerations

The  following  is a brief  summary  of  certain  Federal  tax  laws as they are
currently  interpreted.  No one can be certain that the laws or  interpretations
will remain unchanged or that agencies or courts will always agree as to how the
tax law or regulations are to be interpreted. This discussion is not intended as
tax advice. You may wish to consult a professional tax advisor for tax advice as
to your particular situation.

Our taxation:  We are taxed as a life insurance company under Part I, subchapter
L, of the Code.

Treatment as a "modified endowment contract": Under most circumstances, taxes on
any gain in the Policy are  `deferred'  and not taxed  every  year.  Unless your
Policy is established as part of an eligible exchange of a life insurance policy
entered into before June 21, 1988, amounts you receive as a partial  withdrawal,
a loan or as a surrender  are taxed in the same manner as  distributions  from a
deferred annuity before annuity  payments begin.  This means that these types of
distributions  are deemed to come first from any gain in the policy and that any
gain is treated as ordinary income. It also means that distributions of gain may
be  subject  to a 10%  tax  penalty  if  taken  before  age 59 1/2.  Under  most
circumstances,  the  Beneficiary  will  not  pay  any  income  tax on the  Death
Proceeds.

Assignment:  If you assign or pledge any portion of the Policy,  the transaction
is treated as a  distribution  subject to taxation as ordinary  income.  The tax
penalty  noted  above may apply.  In  addition,  except in the case of a partial
assignment  as of the  Policy  Date,  we expect to report  gain in the Policy as
currently taxable in each tax year the assignment remains in effect.

Gifts:  If you give your Policy as a gift to an entity for which you are not the
taxpayer  or to anyone  other than your spouse (or former  spouse  incident to a
divorce), the gift is treated for tax purposes as a distribution.

Aggregation  rules: You may purchase more than one life insurance policy from us
in the  same  calendar  year  that is  treated  under  the  Code as a  "modified
endowment contract,"  including the Policy described in this Prospectus.  If you
do, all such policies are subject to "aggregation rules." Under these rules, all
of these  policies  must be  treated as one  modified  endowment  contract  when
determining  the portion of any  distribution  or deemed  distribution  which is
currently taxable. It is also possible that these aggregation rules may apply to
any annuity  contracts  you purchase  from us in the same  calendar  year as you
purchase a Policy.

Exchanges:  Section 1035 of the Code permits certain tax-free  exchanges of life
insurance policies. You must comply with various requirements for such exchanges
to be treated as tax-free,  which include,  but are not limited to: (a) the need
for the insured to be the same  individual or  individuals  before and after the
exchange;  and (b) the  need to have  the  Debt on a  Policy  as of the date all
premium is received equal to any outstanding  indebtedness on the life insurance
exchanged for the Policy.  If you exchange a life insurance  policy entered into
before June 21, 1988 which is not a modified endowment contract,  we believe the
new policy generally will not be treated as a modified  endowment contract if no
new premium is paid and there is no reduction  in the death  benefit as a result
of the exchange. For those Policies not treated as modified endowment contracts,
we believe  that loans are not  treated as  distributions  and  withdrawals  are
deemed to come first from your investment in the policy. In addition, we believe
that the aggregation rules as well as the tax treatment of assignments,  pledges
and gifts, noted above, would not apply.  However,  we cannot guarantee this tax
treatment  and advise you to consult  your tax  advisor  before  exchanging  any
existing life insurance policy.

Transfers between investment  options:  Transfers between investment options are
not subject to taxation. The Treasury Department may promulgate guidelines under
which a variable life insurance policy will not be treated as life insurance for
tax purposes if persons with ownership  rights have  excessive  control over the
investments underlying such a policy. Such guidelines may or may not address the
number of  investment  options or the  number of  transfers  between  investment
options  offered.  It  is  not  known  whether  such  guidelines,   if  in  fact
promulgated, would have retroactive effect. It is also not known what effect, if
any, such guidelines may have on transfers between the investment options of the
Policy offered pursuant to this Prospectus.  We will take any action,  including
modifications to your Policy or the  Sub-accounts,  required to comply with such
guidelines if promulgated.

   
     Generation skipping transfers: Under the Code certain taxes may be due when
all or part of a life  insurance  policy is transferred to or a death benefit is
paid to an individual  two or more  generations  younger than the policy holder.
These  generation-skipping  transfers generally include those subject to federal
estate or gift tax rules. There is an aggregate $1 million exemption from tax on
all such transfers.  We may be required to determine  whether a transaction is a
direct skip as defined in the Code and the amount of the resulting  tax. We will
deduct from your Policy or from any applicable payment to be treated as a direct
skip any amount we are required to pay.
    

Diversification:  Section  817(h)  of the Code  provides  that a  variable  life
insurance  policy,  in  order  to  qualify  as  life  insurance,  must  have  an
"adequately  diversified"  segregated asset account (including  investments in a
mutual  fund by the  segregated  asset  account  of  insurance  companies).  The
Treasury Department's regulations prescribe the diversification requirements for
variable life insurance policy. We believe the underlying mutual fund portfolios
should comply with the terms of these regulations.

Withholding:   Section  3405  of  the  Code  provides  for  Federal  income  tax
withholding  on the portion of a  distribution  which is includible in the gross
income of the  recipient.  Amounts to be withheld  depend upon the nature of the
distribution.  However,  under most  circumstances  a recipient may elect not to
have income taxes  withheld or have income taxes withheld at a different rate by
filing a completed election form with us. A withholding form may be required.

Accelerated  Death  Benefits:  Payments of amounts to an Insured that  otherwise
would be  payable  to the  Beneficiary  as a result  of an  Insured's  death can
qualify  for  the  same  tax-free   treatment  as  death   benefits  if  certain
requirements are met. These are  requirements  regarding the terminal illness of
the insured.  We believe payments under the provisions of the accelerated  death
benefit of the Policy will meet the requirements of the Code and the regulations
in order to qualify as tax-free payments.

Extending  the Policy's  Maturity:  We believe that a Policy will continue to be
treated as life insurance and as a modified endowment contract under the Code if
you extend the Policy's  maturity under any extended maturity rider we may offer
in the future. However, this tax treatment is not certain, so you should consult
your tax advisor  before  taking this step. If the Policy is not treated as life
insurance  after any extension of maturity,  gain in the Policy may no longer be
taxed deferred, and all or a portion of the Death Proceeds may be taxable to the
Beneficiary.

Survivorship  Policies:  The Code does not directly address how certain features
of a policy  paying on the death of a surviving  insured  should be treated.  We
believe such a Policy should be treated as other life  insurance  policies,  but
there is some  uncertainty  as to  whether  that is the case.  If the  surviving
Insured is an Owner,  the Death Proceeds payable as a result of the death of the
last surviving  Insured  generally will be treated as part of the Owner's estate
for  purposes of the federal  estate  tax. If the  surviving  Insured was not an
Owner,  the replacement  cost of the Policy may be included in the estate of the
Owner upon his or her death and Death Proceeds  payable as a result of the death
of the surviving  Insured are includible in the person's  estate if the proceeds
are payable to or for the benefit of that  person's  estate or if the  surviving
Insured held  incidents  of ownership in the Policy  within three years prior to
death.

Taxes other than Federal income taxes:  Amounts received or deemed received from
a Policy that may be subject to Federal  income tax also may be subject to state
income  taxes.  The fair market  value of a Policy or the Death  Proceeds may be
included  under  certain  circumstances  in an  estate  for  purposes  of  state
inheritance  taxes or Federal  estate taxes.  Federal  estate and gift taxes are
integrated for various  purposes.  An unlimited  marital deduction may apply for
purposes of Federal  estate and gift taxes,  which would allow deferral of taxes
until the death of the surviving spouse.

                            Safekeeping of the Assets

We maintain the assets of the Separate Account and those in our general account.
The assets of the  Separate  Account  are  segregated  from those in our general
account.

                                   Regulation

   
We are organized as a Connecticut stock life insurance company,  and are subject
to  Connecticut  law  governing  insurance  companies.   We  are  regulated  and
supervised by the  Connecticut  Commissioner  of Insurance.  By March 1 of every
year, we must prepare and file an annual statement,  in a form prescribed by the
Connecticut Insurance Department,  which covers our operations for the preceding
calendar year, and must prepare and file our statement of financial condition as
of December  31 of such year.  The  Commissioner  and his or her agents have the
right at all times to review or examine our books and assets. A full examination
of our  operations  will be  conducted  periodically  according to the rules and
practices of the National Association of Insurance  Commissioners  ("NAIC").  We
are subject to the insurance laws and various Federal and state  securities laws
and regulations and to regulatory agencies,  such as the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the Connecticut Banking  Department,  which administer those laws
and regulations.
    

We can be assessed up to prescribed  limits for policyholder  losses incurred by
insolvent  insurers  under the insurance  guaranty fund laws of most states.  We
cannot predict or estimate the amount any such future assessments we may have to
pay. However,  the insurance  guaranty laws of most states provide for deferring
payment or  exempting  a company  from  paying  such an  assessment  if it would
threaten such insurer's financial strength.

Several states,  including  Connecticut,  regulate insurers and their affiliates
under insurance holding company laws and regulations. This applies to us and our
affiliates.  Under  such  laws,  inter-company  transactions,  such as  dividend
payments to parent  companies and  transfers of assets,  may be subject to prior
notice and approval, depending on factors such as the size of the transaction in
relation to the financial position of the companies.

Currently,  the federal  government  does not directly  regulate the business of
insurance.  However, federal legislative,  regulatory and judicial decisions and
initiatives  often have  significant  effects on our business.  Types of changes
that are most likely to affect our business include changes to: (a) the taxation
of life insurance  companies;  (b) the tax treatment of insurance products;  (c)
the  securities  laws,  particularly  as they  relate to  insurance  and annuity
products;  (d) the "business of insurance" exemption from many of the provisions
of the anti-trust  laws; (e) the barriers  preventing most banks from selling or
underwriting  insurance:  and (f) any initiatives  directed toward improving the
solvency  of  insurance  companies.   We  would  also  be  affected  by  federal
initiatives  that have impact on the ownership of or investment in United States
companies by foreign companies or investors.

Prospectus  and  Registration  Statement.  We have  included them relying on his
opinion that they are reasonable.

                          Distribution of this Offering

American  Skandia  Marketing,   Incorporated   ("ASM,   Inc."),  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary  of American  Skandia  Investment  Holding  Corporation,  acts as the
principal underwriter of the Policies. ASM, Inc.'s principal business address is
One Corporate Drive,  Shelton,  Connecticut  06484. ASM, Inc. is a broker-dealer
registered  with  the SEC  under  the  1934  Act and a  member  of the  National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD").

ASM, Inc. will enter into  distribution  agreements with certain  broker-dealers
registered  under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 or with entities which
may  otherwise  offer the Policies  that are exempt from such  registration.  In
addition,  ASM, Inc. may offer Policies  directly to potential  purchasers.  The
maximum initial concession to be paid on premiums received is 8.5% and a portion
of  compensation  may be paid  from time to time  based on all or a  portion  of
either  the  Account  Value or the Cash  Value.  We  reserve  the  right to base
concessions  from  time-to-time  on the  investment  options  chosen by  Owners,
including investment options that may be deemed our "affiliates" or "affiliates"
of ASM, Inc. under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

As of the date of this  Prospectus,  we expect to pay an on-going service fee in
relation to providing  certain  statistical  information  upon request by Owners
about the investment options and the Portfolios.  We may make the fee payable to
the  service  providers  based on  either  the  Account  Value or Cash  Value of
Policies.  Under most circumstances,  we will engage the broker-dealer of record
for your  Policy,  or the entity of record if such entity  could offer  Policies
without  registration  as a  broker-dealer  (i.e.  certain  banks),  to be  your
resource for the statistical information,  and to be available upon your request
to both provide and explain such information to you. The broker-dealer of record
or the  entity of record is the firm  which sold you the  Policy,  unless  later
changed.  Some portion of the fee we pay for this service may be payable to your
representative.  We may structure this program such that no fee is payable based
on the value in Fixed  Allocations.  If that were to occur,  it is possible that
your  representative may receive on-going service fee compensation,  but only in
relation to value maintained in variable investment options.

From time to time we may promote the sale of our  products  such as the Policies
offered  pursuant to this  Prospectus  through  programs of non-cash  rewards to
registered representatives of participating  broker-dealers.  We may withdraw or
alter such promotions at any time.

To the extent  permitted,  we may advertise  certain  information  regarding the
performance of the investment  options that does not take into consideration the
effect of either the cost of insurance  charges,  the contingent  deferred sales
charge,  the  contingent  tax charge or the  maintenance  fee. This  performance
information  may help you review the  performance of the investment  options and
provide a basis for comparison  between the Policy's  investment  options.  This
information  may be less useful when comparing the performance of the investment
options with the  performance of investment  options  provided in other variable
life policies  because each plan of life  insurance will have its own applicable
charges.  This information is even less useful in comparing  performance to that
of any savings or investment vehicle, rather than variable life insurance.

Performance  information on the  Sub-accounts is based on past  performance only
and is no indication of future  performance.  Actual  performance will depend on
the type,  quality  and, for some of the  Sub-accounts,  the  maturities  of the
investments held by the Portfolios and upon prevailing market conditions and the
response of the  Portfolios to such  conditions.  Actual  performance  will also
depend on changes in the expenses of the Portfolios. Such changes are reflected,
in turn, in the Sub-accounts which invest in such Portfolios.  In addition,  the
charges  deducted  from  your  Account  Value and those  assessed  against  each
Sub-account will affect performance.

   
As of the  date of this  Prospectus,  all the  Portfolios  existed  prior to the
inception of these  Sub-accounts.  To the extent  permitted by  applicable  law,
performance  quoted in  advertising  regarding  such  Sub-accounts  may indicate
periods  during which the  Portfolios  have been in  existence  but prior to the
inception of the  Sub-account(s)  or the initial offering of the Policies.  Such
performance  is  considered  hypothetical  historical  performance  because  the
Sub-accounts did not exist during the period the performance was achieved.  Such
hypothetical  historical  performance is calculated  using the same  assumptions
employed in calculating  actual  historical  performance  since inception of the
Sub-accounts.  Any such  historical  performance  will be based on  assumptions.
These include assumptions  regarding:  (a) the Age, risk class and gender, where
applicable,  of an Insured or Insureds; (b) the Premium and Policy Date; and (c)
assumptions  about a lack of transfers,  loans,  loan repayments and withdrawals
during the period for which performance is quoted.

American  Skandia Life Assurance  Corporation  may advertise its rankings and/or
ratings by independent financial ratings services. Such rankings may help you in
evaluating our ability to meet our obligations in relation to Fixed Allocations,
pay Death  Proceeds,  make payments under any  settlement  options or administer
Policies.  Such rankings and ratings do not reflect or relate to the performance
of Separate Account F or the underlying Portfolios.

However, you may better understand how a Policy works, and may be able to better
compare  a  Policy  with  other  life  insurance   plans,   using   hypothetical
illustrations  based  on  your  personal  characteristics  as  well  as  certain
assumptions   about  the  future.   You  can  do  this  using  the  hypothetical
illustrations  provided in this  Appendix A. You can also do this by  requesting
from us personalized hypothetical  illustrations based on: (a) the Age(s) of the
Insured(s); (b) the expected risk class(es) of the Insured(s); (c) the gender of
the Insured(s),  where permitted;  (d) the Face Amount you seek or the amount of
Premium you intend to pay; and (e) applicable cost of insurance charges.  Please
forward any such request to us at our address as shown on the first page of this
Prospectus.
    
As  of  the  date  of  this  Prospectus,   we  only  provide  such  hypothetical
illustrations  on  paper.  We  reserve  the  right  to make  such  illustrations
available in the future via electronic  transmission or as part of a multi-media
presentation.

As of the date of this Prospectus, we do not provide hypothetical  illustrations
that assume future loans, withdrawals,  loan repayments or varying assumed rates
of return. However, we reserve the right to make such illustrations available in
the future.
   
The  hypothetical  illustrations  that  follow  show the  changes  in the  Death
Benefit,  Account  Value and Cash Value over time based on certain  assumptions.
All values are provided as of the end of each Policy Year shown. The assumptions
used are as follows:

         1. Hypothetical  average annual gross rates of return in the Portfolios
            of 0%, 6% and 12%. Of course, actual investment performance is not a
            constant  rate.  If the  hypothetical  gross rate of return  were to
            fluctuate  above or below the 0%, 6% or 12% average over a period of
            years,  the  Death  Benefit,  Account  Value  and Cash  Value may be
            different.  For  hypothetical  rates  of  return  of 0% and 6%,  the
            illustrations  will  indicate if a Policy would lapse.  HYPOTHETICAL
            RATES OF RETURN  ARE FOR  ILLUSTRATIVE  PURPOSES  ONLY AND ARE NOT A
            REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE PERFORMANCE.

         2. Hypothetical  constant  expense ratios of 1.10% for the  Portfolios.
            The total annual expenses for the underlying  mutual funds are shown
            in the section  entitled  "Variable  Investment  Options." The 1.10%
            hypothetical expense ratio is the average of the actual total annual
            expenses  for all  available  Portfolios  as of December  31,  1997.
            Certain of the Portfolios have not been in existence for a full year
            and,  therefore,  the total annual expenses for those Portfolios are
            estimated and annualized. The 1.10% hypothetical expense ratio, when
            deducted from the hypothetical  average annual gross rates of return
            equals a  hypothetical  average annual net rate of return of -1.10%,
            4.90% and 10.90%, respectively
    
         3. The mortality and expense risk charge assessed against the assets in
            the Separate  Account at an annualized rate of 0.90%. The charge for
            administrative   expenses  connected  with  operating  the  Separate
            Account is 0.25% per year.  It is also  assumed that there is no tax
            charge assessed against the Separate Account.
   
         4. The  charges  under  the  Policy,  including  the cost of  insurance
            charges  that  differ by  gender.  It is  assumed  that there are no
            transfer fees  applicable.  The hypothetical  illustrations  will be
            presented based on both the current and guaranteed cost of insurance
            charges.

         5. There are no loans, loan repayments, withdrawals,  accelerated death
            benefit  payments or amounts  paid to maintain  the Policy in effect
            during a grace  period.  The  hypothetical  values will include Cash
            Value Credits, if applicable.

         6. The Age(s) and gender of the Insured(s) shown in each  illustration.
            The cost of  insurance  charges  differ  based on the  age(s) of the
            Insured(s)  on the Policy  Date and,  where  permitted  by law,  the
            gender of the Insured(s).

         7. The  Insured(s)  is/are  eligible for the no tobacco use risk class.
            For each gender and age  classification,  the cost of insurance rate
            for the "No Tobacco Use"  classification is .35% lower than the rate
            for the "Tobacco User" classification.
    
         8. The Premium and Face Amount are as shown in each illustration.

                                   APPENDIX B
                    Illustration Of Accelerated Death Benefit

The following are  hypothetical  illustrations of the impact of payments made to
the Insured under the  accelerated  death benefit  provision of the Policy.  The
first  hypothetical  illustration  assumes the Insured is a female, age 45 as of
the Policy Date. The second hypothetical  illustration  assumes the Insured is a
male, age 65 as of the Policy Date.  The following  other  assumptions  apply to
both hypothetical illustrations:

         1. The Premium paid was $20,000.
   
         2. The Accelerated  Death Benefit provision is exercised as of the 10th
            Policy Anniversary.
         3. The  investment  options in which Account  Value was allocated  have
            grown at a  hypothetical  average  annual  net rate of  return of 8%
            since  the  Issue  Date. 
    
         4. There have been no loans or loan repayments.
         5. No amounts have been withdrawn.
         6. 50% of the maximum
            available amount is taken pursuant to the accelerated  death benefit
            provision.  
         7. The 12 month  interest rate discount used in the  calculation of the
            benefit assumes interest at 6% per year, compounded yearly.


The  following  are  various  policy  values  immediate  before  and  after  the
accelerated death benefit is paid:



                                                                  ------------------------- -------------------------

           Account Value Before the Accelerated Death Benefit             $34,224                   $33,708

The Required  Death Benefit is determined by treating the Account Value as if it
were a net single  premium.  We determine the Required Death Benefit by dividing
the Account Value by factors that are  determined  as of the Policy Date.  These
factors vary by the attained Age, gender (where permitted) and risk class of the
Insured. Factors for joint life cases depend upon an actuarial derivation of the
applicable rate for both Insureds.

The guaranteed maximum cost of insurance charge depends on the risk class of the
Insured(s).  We base the  guaranteed  maximum  charges on the sex distinct  1980
Commissioners  Standard  Ordinary  Ultimate  Mortality  Table, age last birthday
unless unisex rates apply. The above amounts are per $1,000 amount at risk. Cost
of insurance charges for joint life cases depend upon an actuarial derivation of
the applicable rate for both insureds.

agent  of  another  corporation,  partnership,  joint  venture,  trust  or other
enterprise,  against expenses  (including  attorneys' fees),  judgments,  fines,
penalties,  and amounts paid in settlement  actually and reasonably  incurred by
him in  connection  with  such  action,  suit or  proceeding  if the  person  is
successful  on the merits in the  defense of the  proceeding  or as  provided in
Section  3  hereof,  if he acted in good  faith  and in a manner  he  reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the  corporation,  and
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,  the person had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful or if upon application to the court as
provided in Section 5 hereof,  the court shall have  determined  that in view of
all the  circumstances  such  person is fairly  and  reasonably  entitled  to be
indemnified, and then for such amount as the court shall determine; except that,
in  connection  with  an  alleged  claim  based  upon  his  purchase  or sale of
securities  of the  Corporation  or of  another  enterprise,  which he serves or
served at the request of the Corporation,  the Corporation  shall only indemnify
such person after the court shall have determined, on application as provided in
Section 5 hereof,  that in view of all the  circumstances  such person is fairly
and reasonably entitled to be indemnified, and then for such amount as the court
shall determine.  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment,
order,  settlement,  conviction,  or  upon  a  plea  of  nolo  contendre  or its
equivalent,  shall not, of itself,  create a presumption that the person did not
act in good faith and in a manner which he  reasonably  believed to be in or not
opposed to the best  interests of the  Corporation  or of the  participants  and
beneficiaries  of such employee  benefit plan or trust and  consistent  with the
provisions  of such  employee  benefit  plan or trust,  or, with  respect to any
criminal action or proceeding,  that he had reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful.

SECTION 2.                 Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation.

The  Corporation  shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or threatened
to be made a party to any  threatened,  pending  or  completed  action,  suit or
proceeding, by or in the right of the Corporation,  to procure a judgment in its
favor by reason of the fact that he, or the person whose legal representative he
is,  is or was a  shareholder,  director,  officer,  employee  or  agent  of the
Corporation,  or is or was serving solely at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,  partnership, joint
venture,  trust  or  enterprise,  against  expenses  (including  attorney  fees)
actually and reasonably  incurred by him in connection  with such  proceeding in
relation  to  matters  as to  which  such  person,  or the  person  whose  legal
representative  his is, is finally adjudged not to have breached his duty to the
Corporation, or where the court, on application as provided in Section 6 hereof,
shall  have  determined  that in view or all the  circumstances  such  person is
fairly and reasonably  entitled to be  indemnified,  and then for such amount as
the court shall  determine.  The  Corporation  shall not so  indemnify  any such
person for amounts paid to the  Corporation,  to a plaintiff or to counsel for a
plaintiff in settling or otherwise  disposing of a  proceeding,  with or without
court  approval;  or for expenses  incurred in  defending a proceeding  which is
settled or otherwise disposed of without court approval.






SECTION 3.                 Determination of Right of Indemnification.

The  conclusion  provided  for in  Section 1 hereof may be reached by any of the
following: (1) The Board of Directors of the Corporation by a consent in writing
signed by a majority of those directors who were not parties to such proceeding;
(2)  independent  legal  counsel  selected  by a consent in writing  signed by a
majority of those directors who were not parties to such proceeding;  (3) in the
case  of  any  employee  or  agent  who is not an  officer  or  director  of the
Corporation,  the Corporation's  general counsel; or (4) the shareholders of the
Corporation by the  affirmative  vote of at least a majority of the voting power
of shares not owned by parties to such  proceeding,  represented at an annual or
special meeting of shareholders, duly called with notice of such purpose stated.
Such person shall also be entitled to apply to a court for such conclusion, upon
application as provided in Section 5 hereof,  even though the conclusion reached
by any of the  foregoing  shall have been  adverse to him or to the person whose
legal representative he is.


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

                         REPRESENTATION AND UNDERTAKING

The  Registrant and the Company  hereby make the following  representations  and
undertakings:

(a) This filing is made pursuant to Rules 6c-3 and 6e-3(T) under the  Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the  "Act").  The  Registrant  and the Company  elect to be
governed by Rule 6e-3(T)(b)(13)(i)(A) under the Act with respect to the Policies
described  in the  prospectus.  The  Policies  are  designed in such a way as to
qualify for the exemptive relief from various  provisions of the Act afforded by
Rule 6e-3(T).

(b) The Company is relying on Paragraph  (b)(13)(iii)(F) of Rule 6e-3(T) for the
deduction of the mortality and expense risk charges ("risk  charges")assumed  by
the Company under the Policies. The Company represents that the risk charges are
reasonable  in  relation  to all of the risks  assumed by the  issuer  under the
Policies. (Paragraph (b)(13)(iii)(F)(2)(ii)).  Actuarial memoranda demonstrating
the  reasonableness of these charges are maintained by the Company,  and will be
made available to the Securities and Exchange  Commission (the  "Commission") on
request.
(Paragraph (b)(13)(iii)(F)(3).

(c) The Company has  concluded  that there is a reasonable  likelihood  that the
distribution  financing  arrangement  of the  separate  account will benefit the
separate account and the contractholders and will keep and make available to the
Commission   on  request  a  memorandum   setting   forth  the  basis  for  this
representation.
(Paragraph (b)(13)(iii)(F)(4)(ii)(A).

(d) The  Company  represents  that the  separate  account  will  invest  only in
management  investment  companies  which  have  undertaken  to have a  board  of
directors,  a  majority  of whom  are not  interested  persons  of the  company,
formulate  and  approve  any  plan  under  Rule  12b-1 to  finance  distribution
expenses. (Paragraph (b)(13)(iii)(F)(4)(ii)(B)(2).

(e) Pursuant to Rule 26(e) under the Act, the Company hereby represents that the
fees and charges deducted under the Policy  described in the Prospectus,  in the
aggregate,  are  reasonable in relation to the services  rendered,  the expenses
expected to be incurred, and the risks assumed by the Company.

                                 SIGNATURES

         Pursuant  to the  requirements  of the  Securities  Act  of  1933,  the
