                                               Statements to the Company's Agent

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                           AGREEMENT AND SIGNATURES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A.   The statements and answers on pages 1 through 6 of Part A and Part B of the
     attached application are, to the best of my knowledge and belief, complete,
     true, and correctly recorded.All statements and answers are representations
     and not warranties, and with all Parts B of the attached application will
     form the basis for and be a part of any new policy or additional benefit
     provision issued on this application.

B.   Coverage will take effect as provided in and subject to terms and
     conditions of Conditional Temporary Insurance Agreement Form 156-COMBTIA-99
     bearing the same date and number of this Part A if: (1) an advance payment
     of at least the Minimum Temporary Insurance Premium is made with Part A
     which satisfies the requirements of such Conditional Temporary Insurance
     Agreement; and (2) the amount applied for in this and all other
     applications now pending in John Hancock Life Insurance Company does not
     exceed $1,000,000 life insurance.

C.   If the applicant has a right to have the new policy issued as requested
     without completing any Part B, the new policy will take effect as of its
     Date of Issue, provided the initial payment has been received with this
     application.

D.   In cases other than those described in B and C above, any new policy or
     benefit provision will take effect as of the Date of Issue of the policy,
     but: (1) only on delivery to and receipt by the Applicant of the policy and
     payment of the minimum initial premium thereon and (2) only if at the time
     of such delivery and payment each person proposed for insurance in Parts A
     and B of this application is living and has not consulted or been examined
     or treated by a physician or practitioner since the latest Part B
     pertaining to such person was completed.

E.   No agent or medical examiner is authorized to make or discharge policies or
     waive or change any of the conditions or provisions of any application,
     policy, or receipt, or to accept risks or pass on insurability. Any such
     unauthorized action is not notice to or knowledge of the Company. A medical
     examiner is not an agent of the Company.

              Provisions F and G apply only to variable products

F.   All benefits, payments, and values, including the Death Benefit and Account
     Value, under any policy issued which is based upon the investment

H.   The new policy will be a new, separate contract. If the new policy is
     issued in exchange for the original insurance, all liability of the Company
     under the original insurance will cease when the new policy takes effect.

     original policy. Coverage under the new policy will take effect as
     indicated in Paragraph C above.

I.   The application for the original insurance, unless such insurance is now
     incontestable, and the application for each additional benefit provision
     which is to be retained as specified on page 2 of this Application, unless
     such  provision is now incontestable, will also form a basis for and be
     a part of the policy.

J.   If the original policy or benefit provision is being exchanged and is
     subject to an assignment, the new policy will be subject to the same
     assignment unless discharged or, in the case of a policy loan assignment,
     unless the indebtedness has been repaid.

K.   If the new policy is issued in exchange for the original policy, any
     nonforfeiture option election applicable to the original policy will be
     applicable to the new policy, if available, unless otherwise requested in
     writing.

L.   Ownership and control of any policy issued on the attached application will

     warranties and to the best of my knowledge and belief, are true and
     complete. I certify under the penalty of perjury that the Owner's Taxpayer
     Identification Number on page one is correct and complete. I assent to this
     application.

                Living Care Benefit (Accelerated Death Benefit)

              Note: this benefit is NOT a long term care benefit.

Instructions:  Please check the box below and sign your name if the Living Care
               Benefit (Accelerated Death Benefit) is desired and selected on
               Page 2 of this application.

[_]   Living Care Benefit (Accelerated Death Benefit)

Receipt of accelerated death benefits may be taxable, and may affect eligibility
for public assistance programs such as medical assistance (Medicaid), Aid to
Families with Dependant Children and Supplemental Security Income. Receipt of
accelerated death benefits in periodic payments may be treated differently than
receipt in a lump sum. A discount is associated with the acceleration of death
benefits. Prior to applying for accelerated death benefits, you should seek
assistance from a qualified tax advisor, and you should consult with the
appropriate social services agency concerning how receipt will affect the
eligibility of the recipient and/or the recipient's spouse or dependants.

No health care facility as defined in section 20 of the Public Health Law can
require any person to accelerate payment of a death benefit as a condition of
admission to such health care facility or for providing any care in such
facility.

We are required by New York regulation to provide you with (i) a numerical
computation of the amount of death benefit that you requested for acceleration,
and the amount to be paid in cash; (ii) the amount of your death benefit if you
chose not to accelerate it; and (iii) an illustration demonstrating the effect
of the accelerated death benefit requested on the policy's face amount,
specified amount, death benefit, premium payments, accumulation account, cash
value, loan balance, and partial withdrawals as provided under the terms of the
policy. We are prohibited from paying accelerated death benefits to you for 14
days from the date on which this information is transmitted in writing to you.
We reserve the right to charge an administrative fee of up to $250.

Application for this benefit is voluntary and without coercion on the part of
any third party.

                 REQUEST TO USE POLICY VALUES TO PAY PREMIUMS
                         WHOLE LIFE (TRADITIONAL ONLY)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I elect to have my policy premiums paid by non-guaranteed policy values, if
sufficient, beginning in the year selected below. This payment option is
possible only if future dividend and/or cash values are large enough to pay the
required premium which is due each year. Lower dividends, policy loans, or
withdrawals taken from the policy could cause additional premiums to be
required. The Company recommends that I review illustrations using various
dividend projections to understand how actual dividend experience may affect the
policy values and payment schedule.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   ALTERNATE PREMIUM PAYMENT PLAN COMMENCEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I elect to have the Alternate Premium Payment Plan begin in policy year_______.
This year is based upon an illustration at issue assuming (circle one) Current
or Reduced dividend scale (Indicate reduction from current scale by______%
interest).

At the beginning of the year indicated above, the Company will test my policy
using the dividend scale in effect at the time. If the test shows that projected
policy values are adequate to pay all future premiums based on that current
dividend scale, my premiums will be eligible to be paid from policy values. If
the test shows that projected policy values are not adequate to pay all future
premiums, the test will continue to be repeated each year. Policy premiums will
be eligible to be paid in the earliest year when values are shown to be
sufficient to pay all future premiums.

The Company will notify me in writing when my policy becomes eligible for this
payment option. At that time I may choose to allow the Alternate Premium Payment
Plan to begin, or I may choose to continue to pay premiums in cash to further
build my policy's values.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   ALTERNATE PREMIUM PAYMENT PLAN MECHANICS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I elect the Alternate Premium Payment Plan, policy values will be applied
in the following order to pay the premium amount due:

   1.   Dividends declared for payment on the policy anniversary;
   2.   Amounts accumulated, if any, of dividends on deposit;
   3.   Surrender value of any paid-up insurance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   CHANGES IN ALTERNATE PREMIUM PAYMENT PLAN STATUS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Any of the following may affect my future eligibility to begin or continue to
   pay my premiums from policy values:

 . Partial surrenders of paid-up additions or paid-up insurance;
 . Policy loans;
 . Actual dividends which are less than those projected (dividends are not
   guaranteed);
 . Changes in the dividend option;
 . Any requested change to the policy that affects the premium.

The Company strongly recommends that I review policy illustrations using various
dividend assumptions to see the impact of lower than current dividend scales and
the impact on the Alternate Premium Payment Plan.

If at any time, policy values are not sufficient to pay the amount of premium
then required, no policy values will be applied to pay premiums, and billing for
the required premium will resume. I will be notified if that occurs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   ACKNOWLEDGMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   I/We understand that I/we have the opportunity to use non-guaranteed policy
values to pay required premium payments. I/We understand that the year indicated
above represents the year to begin testing for the Alternate Premium Payment
Plan, and that this year is not guaranteed and dependent on policy values
actually available at the time of the test and the dividend scale then
applicable to my policy.

 NOTICE OF POTENTIAL INCOME TAX IMPLICATIONS FOR MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS

The Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1988 (TAMRA) changed the income
taxation of cash withdrawn from certain affected life insurance policies called
Modified Endowment Contracts, or MECs. Due to the amount of premium you plan to
pay into this policy, you will be affected by this law.

It is important for you to understand that all distributions made from your
policy as applied for, including policy loans, withdrawals, partial surrenders
and certain dividends, will be considered to be a distribution of any gain. This
means that if your policy is in a gain position when the withdrawal is made
(i.e., the value of your policy exceeds the amount you've paid into it), you
will owe ordinary income tax on the amount you withdraw. In addition, a 10%
penalty tax is imposed by the IRS on any taxable distribution made prior to age
59 1/2, except on disability or if taken in the form of an annuity.

The insurance proceeds payable to your beneficiary upon the death of the
Proposed Insured will continue to be income tax free under current legislation.

This notice is designed to inform you of the income taxation of life insurance
based upon our understanding of the information currently available. It is not
intended to provide you with legal advice, which neither John Hancock nor its
Representatives can give. Therefore, if you have questions as to the
applicability of any provision of the law, you should seek the advice of your
own tax and legal counsel.

If you wish to modify your Planned Premiums to avoid creating a Modified
Endowment Contract, your Marketing Representative will assist you. Otherwise,
please sign the Acknowledgment below.

  POLICYOWNER ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND SIGNATURE


I have read the above Notice of Potential Income Tax Implications. I understand
that my premium payments will cause the proposed policy to become a Modified
Endowment. I also understand the potential income tax effects of a distribution
from a Modified Endowment.

applied for.

Amount of Temporary Insurance Coverage. The amount of Coverage will be the

insurance coverage, or a claim for benefits is submitted to such a company, the
Bureau, upon request, will supply such company with the information it may have
in its file.

   Upon receipt of a request from you, the Bureau will arrange disclosure of any
information it may have in your file. If you question the accuracy of
information in the Bureau's file, you may contact the Bureau and seek a
correction in accordance with procedures similar to those set forth in the
Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act.
