     Request for Withdrawal, Pursuant to Rule 477, of Registration Statement on

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Ameritas Life Insurance Corp., as filing agent for Acacia National Variable Life
Insurance Separate Account 1 ("Registrant" or "Separate Account"), on behalf of
the Registrant, requests withdrawal of a Registration Statement on Form N-6 for
Allocator 2000 Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance Policy ("Allocator
2000") pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act") and Rule 477
thereunder, as well as the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"). The
Registrant submitted the Allocator 2000 Registration Statement on Form N-6
electronically to the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on August 8,
2003. The submission was received and accepted by the SEC on August 8, 2003, and
assigned Accession Number 0000941133-03-000003.

The sole purpose of the filing was to report a change in the Depositor scheduled
to take place at the close of business December 31, 2003 when the current
Depositor is merged with its parent company. On the advice of the Office of
Insurance Products, we wish to withdraw the filing at this time, with the intent
to re-file on December 31, when the merger and the transfer of the Separate
Account will occur.

Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience we have caused you. If
you have any questions or comments with respect to this filing, please telephone

Sincerely,

/s/ Donald R. Stading
