(3) Of the $75,000,000 of units of interest of fixed account options under

further amendment which specifically states that this Registration Statement

Securities Act of 1933 or until the Registration Statement shall become
effective on such date as the Commission, acting pursuant to Section 8(a), may
determine.



                                Explanatory Note

Registrant is filing this registration statement for the sole purpose of
registering additional Fixed Account interests under deferred annuity contracts
previously described in the prospectuses contained in Registrant's Form N-4
registration statement (File No.333-50879 and 033-62203) and Form S-3
registration statement (File No. 333-41236). Registrant incorporates herein by
reference those prospectuses, which remain unchanged.

her duty, unless indemnification is deemed appropriate by the court upon

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS.


The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to the registration statement:

     (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;

     (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;
and

     (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement; and provided,
however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by
Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof;

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of
the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant, Glenbrook Life and Annuity Company, 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 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
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.



                                   SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, Registrant certifies
that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements
for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be
signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, and its seal
to be hereunto affixed and attested, in the Township of Northfield, State of
Illinois on the day of February 15, 2002.
