protection, premium flexibility, and the ability to change Death Benefits.

* These portfolios may invest in lower quality debt securities commonly
 referred to as junk bonds.

Not all of these portfolios may be available in all markets.

If you choose our fixed option, your assets will grow at a rate of at least 4%.
We take the investment risk for assets allocated to the Guarantee Account.

Your Policy provides for a Surrender Value. The amount of your Surrender Value
will depend upon the investment performance of the portfolio(s) you select and
interest credited on assets in the Guarantee Account. Investors bear the
investment risk of investing in the Separate Account.

The purpose of this Policy is to provide life insurance protection for the
beneficiary(ies) named on the Policy. No claim is made that the Policy is in
any way similar or comparable to a systematic investment plan of a mutual fund.

We guarantee the Death Benefit for as long as the Policy is in force. The cash
surrender value is not guaranteed. The Policy will lapse if the cash surrender
value is insufficient to cover Policy charges. We guarantee to keep the Policy
in force as long as minimum premium requirements are met.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has not approved or disapproved these
securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any
representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

 *   The 12b-1 fees deducted from the 12b-1 classes of these portfolios cover
     certain distribution and shareholder support services provided by the
     companies selling Policies investing in those portfolios. The portion of
     the 12b-1 fees assessed against the portfolios' assets attributable to the
     Policies will be remitted to Capital Brokerage Corporation, the principal

 /1/ Actual annual class operating expenses were lower because a portion of the
     brokerage commissions that the portfolio paid was used to reduce the
     portfolio's expenses. In addition, through arrangements with the
     portfolio's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash
     balances are used to reduce a portion of the portfolio's custodian
     expenses. These offsets may be discontinued at any time.

     Accordingly, the actual total operating expenses were:

 * The 12b-1 fees deducted from the 12b-1 classes of these portfolios cover
   certain distribution and shareholder support services provided by the
   companies selling Policies investing in those portfolios. The portion of the
   12b-1 fees assessed against the portfolios' assets attributable to the
   Policies will be remitted to Capital Brokerage Corporation, the principal
   underwriter for the Policies.
** The Service Share fees deducted from the service shares of these portfolios
   cover certain administrative services provided by companies issuing policies
   investing in those portfolios. The portion of the Service Share fees
   assessed against the portfolios' assets attributable to the Policies will be
   remitted to the Company.

The expenses shown above are deducted by the portfolios before they provide us
with the daily net asset value. We then deduct Separate Account charges from
the net asset value in calculating the unit value of the corresponding
Subaccount. The management fees and other expenses are more fully described in
the prospectus for each portfolio. Information relating to the portfolios was
provided by the portfolios and not independently verified by us.

                                       14



OTHER POLICIES

We offer other variable life insurance policies in the Separate Account which
also invest in the same portfolios (or many of the same) of the Funds. These
policies have different charges that could affect the value of the Subaccounts
and may offer different benefits more suitable to your needs. To obtain more
information about these policies, contact your agent, or call (800) 313-5282.

                                       15


Policy Summary

PREMIUMS

You select a premium payment plan. You are not required to pay premiums
according to the plan, but may vary frequency and amount, within limits, and
can skip planned premiums. See the "Periodic Premium Plan" provision of this
prospectus.

Premium amounts depend on an Insured's Age, gender (where applicable), risk
class, Specified Amount selected, and any supplemental benefit riders. See the
"Premiums" provision of this prospectus.

You may make unscheduled premium payments, provided such premium payments do
not exceed the limitations for life insurance as set forth by Section 7702 of
the Code. We may reject any additional premium payments, or portion thereof,
that would result in your Policy being disqualified as life insurance under the
Code. Each additional premium payment, if within the limitations as stated
above, must be at least $50. See the "Premiums" provision of this prospectus.

Under certain circumstances, you may have to pay extra premiums to prevent
termination. See the "Premium to Prevent Termination" provision of this
prospectus.

DEDUCTION FROM PREMIUMS

Currently, we deduct a 5% premium charge from each premium before we place it
in a Subaccount or the Guarantee Account. This charge is guaranteed to not
exceed 7.5%. We currently do not deduct the maximum 7.5% premium charge, but
reserve the right to do so. We refer to the premium minus the premium charge as
a Net Premium. We do not assess a premium charge against the Policy loan
portion of a premium received from the rollover of a life insurance policy. See
the "Premium Charge" provision of this prospectus.

ALLOCATION OF NET PREMIUMS

You may allocate your Net Premiums among up to 10 of the Subaccounts of the
Separate Account plus the Guarantee Account at any given time. We will place
any premiums you pay in a non-interest bearing account until:

  (1)  the date we approve the application;

  (2)  the date we receive all necessary forms (including any subsequent
       amendments to your application); and

  (3)  the date we receive the entire initial premium.

We will then allocate your initial Net Premium and any Net Premiums received
within 15 days after the Policy Date to the Subaccount investing in the GE
Investments Funds, Inc. -- Money Market Fund ("Money Market Subaccount"). The
entire value will remain in the Money Market Subaccount for 15 days after the
Policy Date. After 15 days the Account Value in the Money Market Subaccount
will be transferred in accordance with your Net Premium allocation
instructions. See the "Allocating Premiums" provision of this prospectus.



                                       16




DEDUCTIONS FROM ASSETS

Each portfolio deducts management fees and other expenses from its assets. For
the year ended December 31, 2001, the minimum total annual expenses (as a
percentage of average net assets) was 0.39%, and the maximum total annual
expenses (as a percentage of average net assets) was 2.00%. See the "Portfolio
Annual Expenses" provision of this prospectus.

We deduct monthly a mortality and expense risk charge at an effective annual
rate of 0.50% of the first $100,000 of unloaned assets in the Subaccounts
(0.50% of the first $200,000 of unloaned assets in the Subaccounts for a joint
and last survivor Policy). For the first 20 Policy years, we also deduct a
mortality and expense risk charge for unloaned assets in the Subaccounts above
$100,000 ($200,000 for a joint and last survivor Policy) at an annual effective
rate of 0.10%.Beginning with Policy year 21, we do not deduct a mortality and
expense risk charge for unloaned assets in the Subaccounts over $100,000
($200,000 for joint and last survivor Policy).


We make a monthly deduction from your Account Value for:

  (1)  the cost of insurance charge;

  (2)  a current monthly policy charge of $5 ($8 per month maximum);


  (3)  a monthly expense charge based on the initial Base Specified Amount for
       the first 10 Policy years (this charge varies by Age(s), gender and
       rating class excluding the Specified Amount attributable to any
       supplemental benefits);


  (4)  monthly expense charge based on the initial Modified Base Specified
       Amount until the Insured reaches that attained age 100 (this charge
       varies by Age(s), gender and rating class);


  (5)  a monthly expense charge for an increase in Base Specified Amount for
       the first 10 policy years following the increase (this charge varies by
       Age(s), gender and rating class excluding the Specified Amount
       attributable to any supplemental benefits);


  (6)  monthly expense charge for an increase in the initial Modified Base
       Specified Amount until the Insured on a single life or the older
       Insured on a joint life reaches attained age 100 (this charge varies by
       Age(s), gender and rating class); and


  (7)  supplemental benefit charges.

The monthly deduction will also include the increase charge for the first 10
Policy years following an increase in the Specified Amount. See the "Changing
the Specified Amount" provision of this prospectus.

There are optional riders that provide additional benefits; some riders require
an additional cost. Not all riders are available to all policies. See the
"Supplemental Benefits" provision of this prospectus for more information on
these riders.

                                       17




For information concerning compensation paid for sale of the Policies, see the
"Sale of the Policies" provision of this prospectus.

ACCOUNT VALUE

Account Value equals the total amount in each Subaccount and the General
Account, including the Guarantee Account.

The Account Value serves as the starting point for calculating certain values
under a Policy, such as the Surrender Value and the Death Benefit Proceeds.
Your Account Value varies from day to day to reflect investment experience of
the Subaccounts, interest credited to assets in the Guarantee Account, charges
deducted and other Policy transactions (such as Policy loans, transfers and
partial surrenders). See the "How Your Account Value Varies" provision of this
prospectus.

You can transfer assets among the Investment Options (subject to certain
restrictions). See the "Transfers" provision of this prospectus for rules and
limits. Policy loans reduce the amount available for allocations and transfers.

There is no minimum guaranteed Account Value. During the Continuation Period,
the Policy will lapse if the Surrender Value is insufficient to cover the
monthly deduction and the Net Total Premium is less than the Continuation
Amount. After the Continuation Period, the Policy will lapse if the Surrender
Value is insufficient to cover the monthly deduction. See the "Premium to
Prevent Termination" provision of this prospectus.

CASH BENEFITS

You may take a Policy loan for up to 90% of the difference between your Account
Value and any surrender charges, minus any Policy Debt. See the "Loans"
provision of this prospectus.

You may take partial surrenders from your Policy. The minimum partial surrender
amount is $200. We reserve the right to charge a processing fee equal to the
lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount withdrawn although we currently do not assess
such a charge. If you select Death Benefit Option B, you may only take a
partial surrender after the first Policy year. See the "Partial Surrender"
provision of this prospectus.

You can surrender your Policy at any time for its Surrender Value (Account
Value minus Policy Debt and minus any applicable surrender charge). A surrender
charge will apply during the first 10 Policy years, and for 10 Policy years
after an increase in the Specified Amount (except for increases in the
Specified Amount that result from a change in Death Benefit option). See the
"Surrenders" and the "Surrender Charge" provision of this prospectus.

You may choose from a variety of payment options. See the "Requesting Payments"
provision of this prospectus.

                                       18




DEATH BENEFITS

The minimum Specified Amount available is $100,000 for a single life Policy and
$200,000 for a joint and last survivor Policy.

You may choose from among three Death Benefit options:

  . Option A -- Specified Amount plus Account Value;

  . Option B -- Specified Amount; or

  . Option C is:

    .  the greater of Specified Amount; or

    .  the Specified Amount; plus

    .  the sum of all premiums paid before Attained Age 75 of the Insured
       under a single life Policy or the younger Insured under a joint and
       last survivor Policy (for 1035 exchanges, the premiums paid under the
       old policy minus any partial surrender of premiums and charges for
       supplemental non-qualified benefits as defined in the Code); minus

    .  the charges for supplemental benefits, other than those specified in
       Section 7702(f)(5)(A) of the Code; minus

    .  all partial surrenders.

The Death Benefit will be the greater of the Death Benefit under the Death
Benefit option you select or the Minimum Death Benefit. See the "Death
Benefits" provision of this prospectus.

Death Benefit Proceeds are payable as a lump sum or under a variety of options.
See the "Requesting Payments" and the "Optional Payment Plans" provisions of
this prospectus.

You may change the Specified Amount and the Death Benefit option. See the
"Changing the Specified Amount" and the "Changing the Death Benefit Option"
provisions of this prospectus for rules and limits.

During the Continuation Period, the Policy will remain in force regardless of
the sufficiency of Surrender Value so long as Net Total Premium is at least
equal to the Continuation Amount. See the "Premium to Prevent Termination"
provision of this prospectus.

                                       19


Risk Summary

INVESTMENT RISK

Your Account Value is subject to the risk that investment performance will be
unfavorable and that your Account Value will decrease. Because we continue to
deduct charges from your Account Value, if investment results are sufficiently
unfavorable and/or you stop making premium payments at or above the minimum
requirements, the Surrender Value of your Policy may fall to zero. In that
case, your Policy will terminate without value and insurance coverage will no
longer be in effect, unless you make an additional payment sufficient to
prevent a termination during the 61-day grace period. However, your Policy will
not lapse during the Continuation Period, even if your Surrender Value is
insufficient to cover the monthly deductions, so long as the Net Total Premium
is at least equal to the Continuation Amount. On the other hand, if investment
experience is sufficiently favorable and you have kept the Policy in force for
a substantial time, you may be able to draw upon your Account Value, through
partial surrenders and Policy loans.


RISK OF TERMINATION

If the Surrender Value of your Policy is insufficient to pay the Monthly
Deduction when due (and, during the Continuation Period, the Net Total Premium
is less than the Continuation Amount), the Policy will be in default and a
grace period will begin. There is a risk that if partial surrenders, loans, and
monthly deductions reduce your Surrender Value to an amount insufficient to
cover Policy charges and/or if the investment experience of your selected
Subaccounts is unfavorable, then your Policy could lapse. In that case, you
will have a 61-day grace period to make a sufficient payment. If you do not
make a sufficient payment before the grace period ends, your Policy will
terminate without value, insurance coverage will no longer be in effect, and
you will receive no benefits. After termination, you may reinstate your Policy
within three years subject to certain conditions.

TAX RISKS

We intend for the Policy to satisfy the definition of a "life insurance
contract" under Section 7702 of the Code. In general, earnings under the Policy
will not be taxed until a distribution is made from the Policy. In addition,
Death Benefits and Accelerated Death Benefits generally will be excludable from
income. In the case of a Policy that is considered a "modified endowment
contract," special rules apply and a 10% penalty tax may be imposed on
distributions, including loans. See the "Special Rules for Modified Endowment
Contracts provision of this prospectus." You should consult a qualified tax
advisor in all tax matters involving your Policy.


LIMITS ON PARTIAL SURRENDERS

The Policy permits you to take partial surrenders. However, if you select Death
Benefit Option B or Option C, you may only take partial surrenders after the
first Policy year.

                                       20




The minimum partial surrender amount is $200. We reserve the right to assess a
processing fee for each partial surrender although we do not currently do so.

Partial surrenders will reduce your Account Value and Death Benefit Proceeds.
Federal income taxes and a penalty tax may apply to partial surrenders.

EFFECTS OF POLICY LOANS

A Policy loan, whether or not repaid, will affect your Account Value over time
because we subtract the amount of the loan from the Investment Options as
collateral. We then credit a fixed interest rate to the loan collateral. As a
result, the loan collateral does not participate in the investment results of
the Subaccounts. The longer the loan is outstanding, the greater the effect is
likely to be. Depending on the investment results of the Subaccounts, the
effect could be favorable or unfavorable.

A Policy loan also reduces the Death Benefit payable. A Policy loan could make
it more likely that a Policy would terminate. There is a risk if the loan
reduces your Surrender Value to an amount insufficient to cover Policy charges
and investment experience is unfavorable, that the Policy will lapse, resulting
in adverse tax consequences. You must submit a sufficient payment during the
grace period to avoid the Policy's termination without value and the end of
insurance coverage.

COMPARISON WITH OTHER INSURANCE POLICIES

The Policy is similar in many ways to universal life insurance. As with
universal life insurance:

  .  the Owner pays premiums for insurance coverage on the Insured(s);

  .  the Policy provides for the accumulation of Surrender Value that is
     payable if the Owner surrenders the Policy during the lifetime of the
     Insured under a single life Policy and the last surviving Insured under a
     joint and last survivor Policy; and

  .  the Surrender Value may be substantially lower than the premiums paid.

However, the Policy differs from universal life insurance in that it permits
you to place your premium in the Subaccounts. The amount and duration of life
insurance protection and the value of the Policy will vary with the investment
performance of the Subaccounts you select. You bear the investment risk with
respect to the amounts allocated to the Subaccounts.


The Surrender Value of your Policy may decrease if the investment performance
of the Subaccounts to which you allocate assets is sufficiently adverse. If the
Surrender Value becomes insufficient to cover charges when due and the
Continuation Period is not in effect, the Policy will terminate without value
after a grace period.

GE Capital Life Assurance Company of New York

We are a stock life insurance that was incorporated in New York on February 23,
1988. We are ultimately a indirect subsidiary of General Electric Capital
Corporation ("GE Capital"), a New York corporation that is a diversified
financial services company whose subsidiaries consist of specialty insurance,
equipment management, and commercial and consumer financing businesses. General
Electric Capital Corporation is owned by General Electric Capital Services,
Inc. which in turn is owned by General Electric Company. GE Capital's ultimate
parent, General Electric Company, founded more than one hundred years ago by
Thomas Edison, is the worlds's largest manufacturer of jet engines, engineering
plastics, medical diagnostic equipment, and large electric power generation
equipment.


We are licensed in New York and specialize in writing individual fixed-rate
deferred annuities, fixed payout immediate annuities, variable deferred
annuities and variable life insurance policies.



STATE REGULATION

We are subject to regulation by the Superintendent of Insurance of the State of
New York. We submit annual statements on our operation and finances to the New
York Department of Insurance.


We are a member of the Insurance Marketplace Standards Association ("IMSA"). We
may use the IMSA membership logo and language in our advertisements, as

and service for individually sold life insurance and annuities.


                                       22


The Separate Account

We established the Separate Account as a separate investment account on
March 20, 2000. The Separate Account has Subaccounts available under the
Policy. Each Subaccount invests exclusively in shares representing an interest
in a separate corresponding portfolio of one of the Funds described below.


The assets of the Separate Account belong to us. Nonetheless, we do not charge
the assets in the Separate Account attributable to the Policies with
liabilities arising out of any other business, which we may conduct. The
Separate Account will, however, be available to cover the liabilities of our
General Account to the extent that the assets of the Separate Account exceed
its liabilities arising under the Policies supported by it. Income, and both
realized and unrealized gains and losses, are credited to or charged against
the Separate Account without regard to the income, gains, or losses arising out
of any other business we may conduct.

The Separate Account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") and meets the definition
of a separate account under the federal securities laws. Registration with the
SEC does not involve supervision of the management or investment practices or
policies of the Separate Account by the SEC.

CHANGES TO THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT

The Separate Account may include other Subaccounts that are not available under
this Policy. We may substitute another Subaccount or insurance company separate
account under the Policy if, in our judgment, investment in a Subaccount should
no longer be possible or becomes inappropriate to the purposes of the Policies,
or if investment in another Subaccount or insurance company separate account is
in the best interest of Owners. The new Subaccounts may be limited to certain
classes of Policies, and the new portfolios may have higher fees and charges
than the portfolios they replaced. No substitution or elimination may take
place without prior notice to Owners and prior approval of the SEC and
insurance regulatory authorities, to the extent required by the 1940 Act and
applicable law.

We may also, where permitted by law:

  .  create new separate accounts;

  .  combine separate accounts, including combining a Separate Account with
     another separate account establish by the Company;

  .  transfer assets of the Separate Account, which we determine to be
     associated with the class of Policies to which this Policy belongs, to
     another separate account;

                                       23




  .  add new Subaccounts to or remove Subaccounts from the Separate Account,
     or combine Subaccounts;

  .  make the Subaccounts available under other policies we issue;

  .  add new portfolios or remove existing portfolios;

  .  substitute new portfolios for any existing portfolios which we determine
     is no longer appropriate in light of the purposes of the Separate
     Account;

  .  deregister the Separate Account under the 1940 Act; and

  .  operate the Separate Account under the direction of a committee or in
     another form.

                                       24


The Portfolios

You decide the Subaccounts to which you direct Net Premiums. You may change
your premium allocation without penalty or charges. There is a separate
Subaccount which corresponds to each portfolio of a Fund offered in this
Policy.

Each Fund is registered with the SEC as an open-end management investment
company under the 1940 Act. The assets of each portfolio are separate from
other portfolios of a Fund and each portfolio has separate investment
objectives and policies. As a result, each portfolio operates as a separate
portfolio and the investment performance of one portfolio has no effect on the
investment performance of any other portfolio.

Before choosing a Subaccount to allocate your Net Premiums and assets,
carefully read the prospectus for each portfolio, along with this prospectus.
We summarize the investment objectives of each portfolio below. There is no
assurance that any of the portfolios will meet these objectives.

The investment objectives and policies of certain portfolios are similar to the
investment objectives and policies of other portfolios that may be managed by
the same investment adviser or manager. The investment results of the
portfolios, however, may be higher or lower than the results of such other
portfolios. There can be no assurance, and no representation is made, that the
investment results of any of the portfolios will be comparable to the
investment results of any other portfolio, even if the other portfolio has the
same investment adviser or manager, or if the other portfolio has a similar
name.

SUBACCOUNTS

You may invest in up to 10 Subaccounts of the portfolios listed below at any
one time.

 /1/A non-diversified portfolio is a portfolio that may hold a larger position
    in a smaller number of securities than a diversified portfolio. This means
    that a single security's increase or decrease in value may have a greater
    impact on the return and net asset value of a non-diversified portfolio
    than a diversified portfolio.

Not all of these portfolios may be available or in all markets.

We will purchase shares of the portfolios at net asset value and direct them to
the appropriate Subaccounts. We will redeem sufficient shares of the
appropriate portfolios at net asset value to pay surrender/partial surrender
proceeds or for other purposes described in the Policy. We automatically
reinvest all dividends and capital gain distributions of the portfolios in
shares of the distributing portfolios at their net asset value on the date of
distribution. In other words, we do not pay portfolio dividends or portfolio
distributions out to Owners as additional units, but instead reflect them in
unit values.

Shares of the portfolios are not sold directly to the general public. They are
sold to us, and they may also be sold to other insurance companies that issue
variable annuity and variable life insurance policies. In addition, they may be
sold to retirement plans.

When a Fund sells shares in any of its portfolios both to variable annuity and
to variable life insurance separate accounts, it engages in mixed funding. When
a Fund sells shares in any of its portfolios to separate accounts of
unaffiliated life insurance companies, it engages in shared funding.

Each Fund may engage in mixed and shared funding. Therefore, due to differences
in redemption rates or tax treatment, or other considerations, the interests of
various shareholders participating in a Fund could conflict. A Fund's Board of
Directors will monitor for the existence of any material conflicts, and
determine what action, if any, should be taken. See the prospectuses for the
Funds for additional information.

We have entered into agreements with either the investment adviser or
distributor of each of the Funds under which the adviser or distributor pays us
a fee ordinarily based upon an annual average percentage of the average
aggregate net amount we have invested on behalf of the Separate Account and
other separate accounts. These percentages differ, and some investment advisers
or distributors pay us a greater percentage than other advisors or
distributors. The amounts we receive under these agreements may be significant.
The agreements reflect administrative services we

                                       31



provide. We may also receive Service Share fees from certain portfolios. These
fees are for the administrative services we provide to these portfolios and are
deducted from portfolio assets attributable to the Policies. In addition, our
affiliate, Capital Brokerage Corporation, the principal underwriter for the
Policies, may receive 12b-1 fees deducted from portfolio assets attributable to
the Policies for providing distribution and shareholder support services to
some of the portfolios. Because the Service Share fees and 12b-1 fees are paid
out of a portfolio's assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase
the cost of an investment in portfolio shares.


VOTING RIGHTS

As required by law, we will vote the portfolio shares of the portfolios held in
the Separate Account at special shareholder meetings based on instruction from
you. However, if the law changes and we are permitted to vote in our own right,
we may elect to do so.

Whenever a Fund calls a shareholders' meeting, Owners with voting interests in
a portfolio will be notified of issues requiring the shareholders' vote as soon
as possible before the shareholder meeting. Each person having a voting
interest in the portfolio will receive proxy voting materials, reports, other
materials, and a form with which to give us voting instructions.

We will determine the number of votes which you have the right to cast by
applying your percentage interest in a Subaccount to the total number of votes
attributable to the Subaccount. In determining the number of votes, we will
recognize fractional shares.

We will vote portfolio shares for which no timely instructions are received in
the same proportion to those that are received. We will apply voting
instructions to abstain on any item to be voted on a pro-rata basis to reduce
the number of votes eligible to be cast.


Since the portfolios may engage in mixed and shared funding, it is possible
that other persons or entities besides us may vote shares of the portfolio. See
"The Portfolios" provision of this prospectus.

Guarantee Account

Amounts in the Guarantee Account are held in, and are part of, our General
Account. The General Account consists of our assets other than those allocated
to this and other Separate Accounts. Subject to statutory authority, we have
sole discretion over the investment of assets of the General Account. The
assets of the General Account are chargeable with liabilities arising out of
any business we may conduct.

Due to certain exemptive and exclusionary provisions of the Federal securities
laws, we have not registered interests in the Guarantee Account under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"), and we have not registered either the
Guarantee Account or our General Account as an investment company under the
1940 Act. Accordingly, neither the interests in the Guarantee Account nor our
General Account are generally subject to regulation under the 1933 Act and the
1940 Act. Disclosures relating to the interests in the Guarantee Account and
the General Account may, however, be subject to certain generally applicable
provisions of the Federal securities laws relating to the accuracy of
statements made in a registration statement. The Guarantee Account may not be
available in all markets. All assets in the Guarantee Account are subject to
liabilities from business operations.

You may allocate some or all of your premium payments and transfer some or all
of your assets to the Guarantee Account. We credit the portion of the assets
allocated to the Guarantee Account with interest (as described below). Assets
in the Guarantee Account are subject to some, but not all, of the charges we
assess in connection with the Policy. See the "Charges and Deductions"
provision of this prospectus.

Each time you allocate premium payments or transfer assets to the Guarantee
Account, we establish an interest rate guarantee period. For each interest rate
guarantee period, we guarantee an interest rate for a year. At the end of an
interest rate guarantee period, a new interest rate will become effective, and
a new interest rate guarantee period will commence with respect to that portion
of the assets in the Guarantee Account represented by that particular
allocation.

The initial interest rate guarantee period for any allocation will be one year
or longer. Subsequent interest rate guarantee periods will each be at least one
year. We may credit additional rates of interest for specified periods from
time to time. We determine the interest rates in our sole discretion. The
determination made will be influenced by, but not necessarily correspond to,
interest rates available on fixed income investments which we may acquire with
the amounts we receive as premium payments or transfers of assets under the
Policies. You will have no direct or indirect interest in these investments. We
also will consider other factors in determining interest rates for a guarantee
period including, but not limited to, regulatory and tax requirements, sales
commissions, and administrative expenses borne by us, general economic trends,
and competitive factors. Amounts you allocate to the Guarantee

                                       33



Account will not share in the investment performance of our General Account. We
cannot predict or guarantee the level of interest rates in future guarantee
periods. However, the interest rates for any interest guarantee period will be
at least the guaranteed interest rate shown in your Policy.

We will notify Owners in writing at least 10 days prior to the expiration date
of any interest rate guarantee period about the then currently available
interest rate guarantee periods and the guaranteed interest rates applicable to
such interest rate guarantee periods. A new interest rate guarantee period will
commence automatically unless we receive written notice prior to the end of the
30 day period following the expiration of the interest rate guarantee period
("30 day window") of your election of a different interest rate guarantee
period from among those being offered by us at the time, or instructions to
transfer all or a portion of the remaining amount to one or more Subaccounts
subject to certain restrictions. (See the "Transfers" provision of this
prospectus.) During the 30-day window, the allocation will accrue interest at
the new interest rate guarantee period's interest rate.

To the extent permitted by law we reserve the right at any time to offer
interest rate guarantee periods that differ from those available when we first
issued the Policy, and to credit additional interest on premium payments and
assets allocated to the Guarantee Account participating in the dollar-cost
averaging program. See the "Dollar-Cost Averaging" provision of this
prospectus. (This may not be available to all classes of Policies). We also
reserve the right, at any time, to stop accepting premium payments or transfers
of assets to a particular interest rate guarantee period. Since the specific
interest rate guarantee periods available may change periodically, please
contact our Service Center to determine the interest rate guarantee periods
currently being offered.

Charges and Deductions


This section describes the charges and deductions we make under the Policy to
compensate us for the services and benefits we provide, costs and expenses we
incur, and risks we assume. The services and benefits we provide include:

  .  the partial surrender, surrender, Policy loan and Death Benefits under
     the Policy;

  .  Investment Options, including Net Premium allocations, dollar-cost
     averaging and portfolio rebalancing programs;

  .  administration of various elective options under the Policy; and

  .  the distribution of various reports to Owners.

The costs and expenses we incur include:

  .  those associated with underwriting applications, increases in Specified
     Amount, and riders;

  .  various overhead and other expenses associated with providing the
     services and benefits provided by the Policy;

  .  sales and marketing expenses, including compensation paid in connection
     with sales of the Policies; and

  .  other costs of doing business, such as Federal, state and local premium
     and other taxes and fees.

The risks we assume include:

  .  that Insured(s) may live for a shorter period of time than estimated,
     resulting in the payment of greater Death Benefits than expected;

  .  that the costs of providing the services and benefits under the Policies
     will exceed the charges deducted; and

  .  that the Guarantee Account assets will earn less than the guaranteed
     interest rate we credit.

We may profit from any charges deducted, such as the mortality and expense risk
charge. We may use any such profits for any purpose, including payment of
distribution expenses.

PREMIUM CHARGE

We currently deduct a 5% charge from each premium before placing the resulting
Net Premium in the Subaccounts or the Guarantee Account. This charge is
guaranteed not to exceed 7.5%. We currently do not deduct the maximum 7.5%
premium charge but reserve the right to do so. We will not assess the premium
charge against the Policy loan portion of a premium received from the rollover
of a life insurance policy.


                                       35



MONTHLY DEDUCTION

We take a monthly deduction on the Policy Date and each Monthly Anniversary
Date from your Account Value. The monthly deduction for each Policy consists
of:


  .  the cost of insurance charge (discussed below);

  .  the mortality and expense risk charge (discussed below);

  .  a current monthly policy charge of $5 ($8 per month maximum);


  .  a maximum monthly expense charge of $0.83 per $1,000 of Base Specified
     Amount for the first 10 Policy years. The monthly expense charge is based
     on the initial Base Specified Amount for the first 10 Policy years and
     varies by Age(s), gender and rating class (excluding the Specified Amount
     attributable to any supplemental benefits). A maximum monthly expense of
     $0.83 per $1,000 of Modified Base Specified Amount is assessed until the
     Insured attains Age 100 (this charge varies by Age(s), gender and rating
     class). If an increase in Base Specified Amount becomes effective, there
     will be an additional maximum charge of $0.83 per $1,000 of increase
     included in the monthly deduction for the first 10 Policy years following
     the increase. If an increase in Modified Base Amount becomes effective,
     there will be an additional maximum charged $0.83 per $1,000 increase
     included in the monthly deduction until the insured reaches Age 100
     following the increase. See the "Changing the Specified Amount" provision
     of this prospectus; and


  .  any charges for additional benefits added by riders to the Policy (see
     the "Supplemental Benefits" provision of this prospectus).


We currently deduct monthly a mortality and expense risk charge at an effective
annual rate of 0.50% of the first $100,000 of unloaned assets in the
Subaccounts (0.50% of the first $200,000 of unloaned assets in the Subaccount
for a joint and last survivor Policy). For the first 20 Policy years, we also
deduct a mortality and expense risk charge for unloaned assets in the
Subaccounts above $100,000 ($200,000 for a joint and last survivor Policy) at
an annual effective rate of 0.10%. Beginning with Policy year 21, we do not
deduct a mortality and expense risk charge for unloaned assets in the
Subaccounts over $100,000 ($200,000 for joint and last survivor Policy). We
will not increase this charge for the duration of your Policy.


The mortality risk we assume is the risk that Insured(s) may live for a shorter
period of time than estimated and, therefore, a greater amount of Death Benefit
Proceeds than expected will be payable. The expense risk we assume is that
expenses incurred in issuing and administering the Policies will be greater
than estimated and, therefore, will exceed the expense charge limits set by the
Policies.


We will deduct the monthly deduction from the Subaccounts and the Guarantee
Account based on your written instructions. If you do not provide us with
written


                                       36



instructions, we will deduct the monthly deduction from the Subaccounts and the
Guarantee Account in proportion to your assets in each Subaccount and the
Guarantee Account.

COST OF INSURANCE

The cost of insurance is a significant charge under your Policy because it is
the primary charge for the Death Benefit we provide you. The cost of insurance
charge depends on a number of factors (Age, gender, Policy duration, and risk
class) that cause the charge to vary from Policy to Policy and from Monthly
Anniversary Date to Monthly Anniversary Date. We will determine the risk class
(and therefore the rates) separately for the initial Specified Amount and for
any increase in Specified Amount that requires evidence of insurability.

For a joint and last survivor Policy, we determine the cost of insurance in a
manner that reflects the anticipated mortality of both Insureds and the fact
that the Death Benefit is not payable until the death of the last surviving
Insured.

We calculate the cost of insurance on each Monthly Anniversary Date based on
your net amount at risk. We determine your net amount at risk by the following
formula:

             Death Benefit
             Proceeds
            --------------  --  Account Value
              1.0032737

To determine your cost of insurance for a particular Policy Month, we divide
your net amount at risk by 1000 and multiply that result by the applicable cost
of insurance rate. If Death Benefit Option A or Option B is in effect, and the
Specified Amount has increased, we first consider the Account Value part up to
the initial Specified Amount. If the Account Value is more than the initial
Specified Amount, we will allocate that Account Value to the increases in
Specified Amount in the order of such increases. If Death Benefit Option C is
in effect, and the Specified Amount has increased, we first consider Account
Value part of the initial Specified Amount. If Account Value is more than the
initial Specified Amount plus premium payments, we will allocate that Account
Value to the increases in Specified Amount.

The cost of insurance rate for an Insured is based on his or her Age, gender,
Policy duration and applicable risk class. We currently place Insureds in the
following risk classes when we issue the Policy, based on our underwriting:

  .  a male or female or unisex risk class (where appropriate under applicable
     law); and

  .  a nicotine use or no nicotine use risk class.

In addition, some Insureds may qualify for a preferred rating. The original
risk class applies to the initial Specified Amount. If an increase in Specified
Amount is

                                       37



approved, a different risk class may apply to the increase, based on an
Insured's circumstances at the time of the increase.

We may change the cost of insurance rates from time to time at our sole
discretion, but we guarantee that the rates we charge will never exceed the
maximum rates shown in your Policy. These rates are based on the Commissioners'
1980 Standard Ordinary Mortality Tables. The maximum cost of insurance rates
are based on the Insured's Age nearest birthday at the start of the Policy
year. Modifications to cost of insurance rates are made for risk classes other
than standard. The rates we currently charge are, at most ages, lower than the
maximum permitted under the Policies and depend on our expectation of future
experience with respect to mortality, interest, expenses, persistency, and
taxes. A change in rates will apply to all persons of the same Age, gender
(where applicable), and risk class and whose Policies have been in effect for
the same length of time.

We will deduct the cost of insurance charge from the Subaccounts and the
Guarantee Account based on your written instructions. If you do not provide us
with written instructions, we will deduct the cost of insurance charge
proportionately from your assets in the Subaccounts and the Guarantee Account.
The monthly deduction for cost of insurance charges will end on the Policy
Anniversary Date on which the Insured under a single life Policy or the
youngest Insured under a joint and last survivor Policy reaches Attained Age
100.

SURRENDER CHARGE

If you fully surrender your Policy during the surrender charge period, we will
deduct a surrender charge. The maximum surrender charge we will assess is
$37.19 per $1,000 of Specified Amount. We calculate the surrender charge by
multiplying a factor times the lowest Specified Amount in effect before the
surrender, divided by 1000. The factor depends on the issue Age and gender
(where applicable), of the Insured. For a joint and last survivor Policy, the
factor depends on the issue Age, gender (where applicable) and risk class of
both Insureds. The surrender charge remains level for the first five Policy
years and then decreases each Policy Month to zero over the next 5 Policy
years. We will deduct the surrender charge before we pay the Surrender Value.

If you increase the Specified Amount (other than as a result of a change in
Death Benefit option), you will also incur a surrender charge. The factor used
in determining the amount of the surrender charge depends on the issue Age of
the Insured for a single life Policy or both Insureds for a joint and last
survivor Policy. The charge will apply to the increase in Specified Amount.


                                       38



If you decrease the Specified Amount to less than the lowest Specified Amount
that had previously been in effect (other than as a result of partial
surrenders or changes in Death Benefit options), you will also incur a
surrender charge. The amount of the surrender charge will be based:

  (1)  first upon any surrender charge in effect for the most recent increase
       in Specified Amount;

  (2)  then upon any surrender charge in effect for the next most recent
       increases in Specified Amount in succession; and

  (3)  finally upon the surrender charge in effect for the original Specified
       Amount.

We disclose the surrender charges on the data pages of your Policy. Upon
request, we will illustrate the surrender charges that apply to your Policy.

We do not assess a surrender charge for partial surrenders.

PARTIAL SURRENDER PROCESSING FEE

We currently do not assess a processing fee for partial surrenders. However, we
reserve the right to deduct a partial surrender processing fee in the future.
The fee will not exceed the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount surrendered.

OTHER CHARGES

Upon written request, we will provide a projection of illustrative future life
insurance and Account Value proceeds. We reserve the right to charge a maximum
fee of $25 for the cost of preparing the illustration.

There are deductions from and expenses paid out of the assets of each portfolio
that are more fully described in each portfolio's prospectus.

In addition, we reserve the right to impose a transfer charge of up to $20 for
each transfer after the twelfth transfer in a Policy year. This charge will be
at cost with no profit to us. We currently do not assess a transfer charge.

REDUCTION OF CHARGES FOR GROUP SALES

We may reduce charges and/or deductions for sales of the Policies to a trustee,
employer or similar entity representing a group or to members of the group
where such sales result in savings of sales or administrative expenses. We will
base these discounts on the following:

  (1)  The size of the group. Generally, the sales expenses for each
       individual Owner for a larger group are less than for a smaller group
       because more Policies can be implemented with fewer sales contacts and
       less administrative cost.

  (2)  The total amount of premium payments to be received from a group. Per
       Policy sales and other expenses are generally proportionately less on
       larger premium payments than on smaller ones.

                                       39




  (3)  The purpose for which the Policies are purchased. Certain types of
       plans are more likely to be stable than others. Such stability reduces
       the number of sales contacts and administrative and other services
       required, reduces sales administration and results in fewer Policy
       terminations. As a result, our sales and other expenses are reduced.

  (4)  The nature of the group for which the Policies are purchased. Certain
       types of employee and professional groups are more likely to continue
       Policy participation for longer periods than are other groups with more
       mobile membership. If fewer Policies are terminated in a given group,
       our sales and other expenses are reduced. Likewise, we may realize
       reduced sale and other expenses for sales to groups that are affiliated
       with us or with whom we transact business, such as our own employees,
       the employees of our affiliated companies, the employees of
       broker/dealers with whom we have selling agreements and the employees
       of our other business partners, including family members of such
       employees.

  (5)  Other circumstances. There may be other circumstances of which we are
       not presently aware, which could result in reduced sales expenses.

If, after we consider the factors listed above, we determine that a group
purchase would result in reduced sales expenses, we may reduce the charges
and/or deductions for each group. Reductions in these charges and/or deductions
will not be unfairly discriminatory against any person, including the affected
Owners and all other owners of Policies funded by the Separate Account.

We may also reduce charges and/or deductions for sales of the Policies for a
director, officer, employee or registered representative of a broker-dealer or
insurance agency that has a current selling agreement for the Policy with the
Company to the extent we realize savings of sales and administrative expenses.

We may also reduce charges and/or deductions for sales of the Policies for
persons related to the above persons, specifically the then current spouse,
parents, siblings, child(ren) or other legal dependents under the age of 21.

Persons noted above must be either the Owner or the Insured of a Policy issued
pursuant to this prospectus.

Any such reduction in charges and/or deductions will be consistent with the
standards we use in determining the reduction in charges and/or deductions for
other group arrangements.

                                       40


The Policy

The Policy is a flexible premium variable life insurance policy. We may issue
the Policy either on the life of a single Insured or the lives of two Insureds
on a joint and last survivor basis. We describe your rights and benefits below
and in the Policy.

APPLYING FOR A POLICY

To purchase a Policy, you must complete an application and you or your agent
must submit it to us at our Service Center. You also must pay an initial
premium of a sufficient amount. See the "Premiums" provision of this
prospectus. You can submit your initial premium with your application or at a
later date. If you submit your initial premium with your application, please
remember that we will place your premium in a non-interest bearing account for
a certain amount of time. See the "Allocating Premiums" provision of this
prospectus. Coverage generally becomes effective as of the Policy Date.


Generally, we will issue a Policy on a single Insured basis covering an Insured
up to Age 85 and on a joint and last survivor basis covering Insureds from Age
20 up to Age 85 if evidence of insurability satisfies our underwriting rules.
Required evidence of insurability may include, among other things, a medical
examination of the Insured. We may, in our sole discretion, issue a Policy
covering an Insured over Age 85. We may reject an application for any lawful
reason and in a manner that does not unfairly discriminate against similarly
situated purchasers.

If we do not receive the full first premium with your application, the
insurance will become effective on the effective date. This date is the date
that we receive your premium and that we deliver your Policy. All persons
proposed for insurance must be insurable on the Policy Date.

If premium is accepted with the application, the Temporary Insurance
Application Agreement ("TIAA") must be completed, signed and returned to us
with the application and you should keep a copy. TIAA guidelines limit
availability of temporary insurance to proposed Insured(s) between the ages of
15 days and 70 years and who answer "No" to all questions on the TIAA.


Temporary insurance begins on the date the TIAA is signed. The coverage will
automatically end and the entire amount remitted with the application will be
returned without interest to or for the benefit of you on the earliest of the
following dates:

  (1)  the date you withdraw the application;

  (2)  45 days after the date of the Temporary Insurance Agreement if we have
       not received a properly completed and signed Application -- Part II --
       Medical History and all medical examinations and tests required by us
       as set forth in our Initial Submission Guidelines;

  (3)  the date we send notice to you at the address shown on the Application
       that we have declined to issue the Policy; and

                                       41




  (4)  90 days after the date of the Temporary Insurance Agreement.

Temporary Insurance will also end on the date when insurance takes effect under
the Policy, at which point the amount remitted will be applied to the Policy.

OWNER

You have rights in the Policy during the Insured's lifetime under a single life
Policy and during the lifetimes of both Insureds under a joint and last
survivor Policy. If you die before an Insured and there is no contingent Owner,
ownership will pass to your estate.

We will treat Joint Owners as having equal undivided interests in the Policy.
All Owners must together exercise any ownership rights in the Policy. If the
last surviving joint Owner dies before the Insured under a single life Policy
or the last surviving Insured under a joint and last survivor Policy and there
is no contingent Owner, ownership will pass to your estate.

BENEFICIARY

You designate the primary Beneficiary(ies) and contingent Beneficiary(ies) when
you apply for the Policy. You may name one or more primary Beneficiary(ies) or
contingent Beneficiaries. We will pay the proceeds to the surviving primary
Beneficiary(ies) if any (or surviving contingent Beneficiary(ies) if there is
no surviving primary Beneficiary(ies)) in equal shares, unless you request
otherwise.


Unless an Optional Payment Plan is chosen, we will pay the death proceeds in a
lump sum to the primary Beneficiary(ies). If the primary Beneficiary(ies) dies
before the Insured under a single life Policy or the last surviving Insured
under a joint and last survivor Policy, we will pay the proceeds to the
contingent Beneficiary(ies). If there is no surviving contingent
Beneficiary(ies) we will pay the proceeds to you or your estate.


CHANGING THE OWNER OR BENEFICIARY

During an Insured's life, you may change the Owner. You may change the
Beneficiary during an Insured's life (unless the Beneficiary was designated as
an irrevocable Beneficiary). To make this change, please write our Service
Center. The request and the change must be in a form satisfactory to us and we
must actually receive the request. The change will take effect as of the date
you signed the request.

CANCELING A POLICY

You may cancel your Policy during the "free-look period" by returning it to us
at our Service Center. The free-look period expires 10 days after you receive
the Policy. The free-look period is longer if required by state law. If you
decide to cancel the Policy during the free-look period, we will treat the
Policy as if it had never been issued. Within 7 calendar days after we receive
the returned Policy, we will refund an amount equal to the sum of all premiums
paid for the Policy, or other amounts as required under state law.

                                       42


Premiums

GENERAL

The premium amounts sufficient to fund a Policy depend on a number of factors,
such as the Age, gender (where applicable), and risk class of a proposed
Insured, the desired Specified Amount, any supplemental benefits, investment
performance of the Subaccounts and interest credited under the Guarantee
Account. We will usually credit your initial premium payment to the Policy on
the later of the date we approve your application and the date we receive your
payment. We will credit any subsequent premium payment to the Policy on the
Valuation Day we receive the payment at our Service Center. After you pay the
initial premium, you may make unscheduled premium payments in any amount and at
any time subject to certain restrictions.


When you apply for the Policy, you will choose one of two alternative tests to
evaluate whether your Policy qualifies as life insurance under the Code. If you
choose the Guideline Premium Test, the total premiums you pay may not exceed
the guideline premium limitation for life insurance set forth in the Code as
shown in your Policy. We may reject any premium, or any portion of a premium,
that would result in the Policy being disqualified as life insurance under the
Code. We will refund any rejected premium along with any interest it accrued.
If you choose the Cash Value Accumulation Test, the terms of the Policy require
that the Death Benefit equal at least a factor (set forth in the Policy, and
which is dependent upon the age of the Insured(s)) multiplied by the Account
Value. Once chosen, you cannot change your choice later. You should consult a
tax adviser before making your choice.

For your convenience, we will monitor Policies and will attempt to notify you
on a timely basis if your Policy is in jeopardy of becoming a Modified
Endowment Contract under the Code. See the "Tax Considerations" provision of
this prospectus. We reserve the right to limit the number and amount of any
unscheduled premium payments.

TAX-FREE EXCHANGES (1035 EXCHANGES)

We will accept money from another contract as part of your initial premium, if
that contract qualifies for a tax-free exchange under Section 1035 of the Code.
If you contemplate such an exchange, you should consult a tax advisor to learn
the potential tax effects of such a transaction. We will accept 1035 exchanges
even if there is an outstanding loan on the other policy, so long as the
outstanding loan is no more than 50% of the rollover premium. We may allow
higher loan percentages. Replacing your existing coverage with this Policy may
not be to your advantage.

CERTAIN INTERNAL EXCHANGES

If you replace an existing GE Capital Life Assurance Company of New York fixed
permanent life insurance policy with this Policy, we may waive some or all of
any applicable surrender charge on the fixed permanent life insurance policy,
provided that:


                                       43







  (1)  the fixed permanent life insurance policy has a positive Surrender
       Value at the time of the exchange; and

  (2)  the entire Account Value in the fixed permanent life insurance policy
       is rolled over into the Policy.

If you qualify, the maximum amount of surrender charge we will waive on the
fixed permanent life insurance policy is equal to 0.05 multiplied by the
Account Value.

PERIODIC PREMIUM PLAN

When you apply for a Policy, you may select a periodic premium payment plan.
Under this plan, you may choose to receive a premium notice either annually,
semi-annually, or quarterly. You can also arrange for annual, semi-annual,
quarterly or monthly premium payments paid via automatic deduction from your
bank account or any other similar account we accept. You are not required to
pay premiums in accordance with this premium plan; you can pay more or less
than planned or skip a planned premium payment entirely. Subject to our
administrative servicing guidelines, you can change the amount of planned
premiums or switch between frequencies, whenever you want by providing
satisfactory instructions to our Service Center. Any change will be effective
upon our receipt of the instructions. Depending on the Account Value at the
time of an increase in the Specified Amount and the amount of the increase
requested, a change in your periodic premium payments may be advisable. See the
"Changing the Specified Amount."

MINIMUM PREMIUM PAYMENT

Generally, the minimum amount of premium we will accept in connection with a
periodic premium payment plan is $50. Please keep in mind that you may have to
pay a higher amount to keep the Policy in force. Even if you pay the minimum
premium amount, your Policy may lapse. See the "Premium to Prevent Termination"
provision of this prospectus. For purposes of the minimum premium payment
requirements, we deem any payment to be a Planned Periodic Premium if we
receive it within 30 days (before or after) of the scheduled date for a Planned
Periodic Premium payment and the percentage difference between the planned
amount and the actual payment amount is not more than 10%. We will deem all
other premium payments to be unscheduled premium payments. Unless you direct us
otherwise, we apply unscheduled premium payments first to repay any Policy
Debt.

                                       44





ALLOCATION PREMIUMS

When you apply for a Policy, you specify the percentage of your Net Premium we
allocate to each Subaccount and the Guarantee Account. You may only direct your
Net Premiums and assets to not more than 10 Subaccounts plus the Guarantee
Account at any given time. You can change the allocation percentages by writing
or calling our Service Center. The change will apply to all premiums we receive
with or after we receive your instructions. Net Premium allocations must be in
percentages totaling 100%, and each allocation percentage must be a whole
number.


Until we approve your application, receive all necessary forms including any
subsequent amendments to the application, and receive the entire initial
premium, we will place any premiums you pay into a non-interest bearing
account. We will then allocate your initial Net Premiums and any Net Premiums
received within 15 days after the Policy Date to the GE Investments Funds,
Inc. -- Money Market Fund ("Money Market Subaccount"). The entire value will
remain in the Money Market Subaccount for 15 days after the Policy Date. After
15 days the assets in the Money Market Subaccount will be transferred in
accordance with your Net Premium allocation instructions. Any Net Premium
received after 15 days from the Policy Date will be allocated in accordance to
your instructions.


                                       45


How Your Account Value Varies

ACCOUNT VALUE

Your Account Value is the entire amount we hold under your Policy for you. The
Account Value serves as a starting point for calculating certain values under a
Policy. It is the sum of the total amount under the Policy in each Subaccount,
the Guarantee Account and the amount held in the General Account to secure
Policy Debt. We determine your Account Value first on your Policy Date (or on
the date we receive your initial premium, if later) and after that on each
Valuation Day. Your Account Value will vary to reflect the performance of the
Subaccounts and interest credited under the Guarantee Account to which you have
allocated amounts and also will vary to reflect Policy Debt, charges for the
monthly deduction, mortality and expense risk charges, transfers, partial
surrenders, and Policy Debt repayments. Your Account Value may be more or less
than the premiums you paid and you bear the investment risk with respect to the
amounts allocated to the Subaccounts.


SURRENDER VALUE

The Surrender Value on a Valuation Day is the Account Value reduced by both any
surrender charge that we would deduct if you surrendered the Policy that day
and any Policy Debt.

SUBACCOUNT VALUES

On any Valuation Day, the value of a Subaccount equals the number of Subaccount
units we credit to the Policy multiplied by the unit value for that day. When
you make allocations to an Subaccount, either by Net Premium allocation,
transfer of assets, transfer of Policy Debt loan interest from the General
Account, or repayment of a Policy loan, we credit your Policy with units in
that Subaccount. We determine the number of units by dividing the amount
allocated, transferred or repaid to the Subaccount by the Subaccount's unit
value for the Valuation Day when we effect the allocation, transfer or
repayment.

The number of units we credit to a Policy will decrease whenever we take the
allocated portion of the monthly deduction, you take a Policy loan or a partial
surrender from the Subaccount, you transfer an amount from the Subaccount, you
take a partial surrender from the Subaccount, or you surrender the Policy.

UNIT VALUES

We arbitrarily set the unit value for each Subaccount at $10 when we
established the Subaccount. After that, a Subaccount's unit value varies to
reflect the investment experience of the underlying portfolio, and may increase
or decrease from one Valuation Day to the next. We determine unit value, after
a Subaccount's operations begin, by multiplying the net investment factor for
that Valuation Period by the unit value for the immediately preceding Valuation
Period.


                                       46



NET INVESTMENT FACTOR

The net investment factor for a Valuation Period is (a) divided by (b), where:

  (a)  is the result of:

    (1)  the value of the assets at the end of the preceding Valuation Period;
         plus

    (2)  the investment income and capital gains, realized or unrealized,
         credited to those assets at the end of the Valuation Period for which
         the net investment factor is being determined; minus

    (3)  the capital losses, realized or unrealized, charged against those
         assets during the Valuation Period; minus

    (4)  any amount charged against the Separate Account for taxes, or any
         amount we set aside during the Valuation Period as a provision for
         taxes attributable to the operation or maintenance of the Separate
         Account; and

  (b)  is the value of the assets in the Subaccount at the end of the
       preceding Valuation Period.

                                       47


Transfers

GENERAL

You may transfer assets among the Subaccounts and the Guarantee Account at any
time. Transfer requests may be made in writing or in any other form acceptable
to us.

A transfer will take effect as of the end of the Valuation Period during which
we receive your request at our Service Center. We may place limitations on
multiple transfer requests made at different times during the same Valuation
Period involving the same Subaccounts.

We may defer transfers under the same conditions that we may delay paying
proceeds. See the "Requesting Payments" provision of this prospectus.
Currently, there is no limit on the number of transfers among the Subaccounts
and the Guarantee Account, but we reserve the right to limit the number of
transfers to 12 each calendar year. We reserve the right to modify, restrict,
suspend or eliminate the transfer privileges, including telephone transfer
privileges, at any time, for any reason. We may not honor transfers made by
third parties. See the "Transfers by Third Parties" provision of this
prospectus.

We also reserve the right to impose restrictions on transfers involving the
Guarantee Account. Such restrictions may include permitting transfers from an
interest rate guarantee period only during the 30 day period immediately
following the end of the guarantee period, limiting the amount of assets
available for transfer at any one time to 25% of the allocations to the
Guarantee Account plus accrued interest and prohibiting transfers to the
Guarantee Account for the six month period following a transfer from the
Guarantee Account.

Sometimes, we may not honor your transfer request. We may not honor your
transfer request:

  (1)  if any Subaccount that would be affected by the transfer is unable to
       purchase or redeem shares of the portfolio in which the Subaccount
       invests;


  (2)  if the transfer is a result of more than one trade involving the same
       Subaccount within a 30 day period;

  (3)  if necessary for the Policy to qualify as life insurance under the
       Code; or

  (4)  if the transfer would adversely affect accumulation unit values. This
       may occur if the transfer would affect one percent or more of the
       relevant Fund's total assets.

We also may not honor transfers made by third parties. (See the "Transfers by
Third Parties") provision of this prospectus.

When thinking about a transfer of assets, you should consider the inherent risk
involved. Frequent transfers based on short-term expectations may increase the
risk that you will make a transfer at an inopportune time.

                                       48




DOLLAR-COST AVERAGING

The dollar-cost averaging program permits you to systematically transfer on a
monthly or quarterly basis a set dollar amount from the Subaccount investing in
the GE Investments Funds, Inc. -- Money Market Fund (the "Money Market
Subaccount") or the Guarantee Account to any combination of Subaccounts other
than the Money Market Subaccount (as long as the total number of Subaccounts
used does not exceed the maximum number allowed under the Policy). The dollar-
cost averaging method of investment is designed to reduce the risk of making
purchases only when the price of units is high, but you should carefully
consider your financial ability to continue the program over a long enough
period of time to purchase units when their value is low as well as when it is
high. Dollar-cost averaging does not assure a profit or protect against a loss.

You may participate in the dollar-cost averaging program by completing a
dollar-cost averaging agreement, or calling our Service Center. To use the
dollar-cost averaging program, you must transfer at least $100 from the Money
Market Subaccount or the Guarantee Account to any Subaccount other than the
Money Market Subaccount. If any transfer would leave less than $100 in the
Investment Option from which transfers are being made, we will transfer the
entire amount. Once elected, dollar-cost averaging remains in effect from the
date we receive your request until the value of the Investment Option from
which transfers are being made is depleted, or until you cancel the program by
written request or by telephone if we have your telephone authorization on
file. The dollar-cost averaging program will start 30 days after we receive
your premium payment and instructions, unless you specify an earlier date. (See
the "Allocating Premiums" provision for a description of when this occurs.)

There is no additional charge for dollar-cost averaging, and we do not consider
a transfer under this program a transfer for purposes of assessing a transfer
charge, nor for calculating any limit on the maximum number of transfers we may
impose for a calendar year. We reserve the right to discontinue or modify the
dollar-cost averaging program at any time and for any reason.

PORTFOLIO REBALANCING

Once you allocate your premium among the Subaccounts, the performance of each
Subaccount may cause your allocation to shift. You may instruct us to
automatically rebalance (on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis) your
assets to return to the percentages specified in your allocation instructions.
You may elect to participate in the portfolio rebalancing program at any time
by completing the portfolio rebalancing agreement. Your percentage allocations
must be in whole percentages. Subsequent changes to your percentage allocations
may be made at any time by writing or calling our Service Center. Once elected,
portfolio rebalancing remains in effect from the

                                       49



date we receive your request until you instruct us to discontinue portfolio
rebalancing. There is no additional charge for using portfolio rebalancing, and
we do not consider a portfolio rebalancing transfer a transfer for purposes of
calculating any limit on the maximum number of transfers we may impose for a
calendar year. We reserve the right to discontinue or modify the portfolio
rebalancing program at any time and for any reason. Portfolio rebalancing does
not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss. We also reserve the right to
exclude certain Subaccounts from portfolio rebalancing. The Guarantee Account
does not participate in portfolio rebalancing.

TRANSFERS BY THIRD PARTIES

As a general rule and as a convenience to you, we allow you to give a third
party the right to effect transfers on your behalf. However, when the same
third party makes transfers for many Owners, the result can be simultaneous
transfers involving large amounts of assets. Such transfers can disrupt the
orderly management of the portfolios underlying the Policy, can result in
higher costs to Owners, and are generally not compatible with the long-range
goals of Owners. We believe that such simultaneous transfers effected by such
third parties are not in the best interests of all shareholders of the
portfolios underlying the Policies, and the managements of those portfolios
share this position.

Therefore, to the extent necessary to reduce the adverse effects of
simultaneous transfers made by third parties who make transfers on behalf of
multiple owners, we may not honor such transfers. Also, we will institute
procedures to assure that the transfer requests that we receive have, in fact,
been made by the Owners in whose names they are submitted. These procedures
will not, however, prevent Owners from making their own transfer requests.

                                       50


Death Benefits

As long as the Policy remains in force, we will pay the Death Benefit upon
receipt at our Service Center of satisfactory proof of the Insured's death
(last surviving insured for a joint and last survivor policy). See the
"Requesting Payments" provision of this prospectus. We will pay the Death
Benefit to the named Beneficiary(ies).


AMOUNT OF DEATH BENEFIT PAYABLE

The amount of Death Benefit payable equals:

  .  the Death Benefit Proceeds determined under the Death Benefit option in
     effect on the date of death of the Insured under a single life Policy and
     the Last Insured under a joint and last survivor Policy;

  .  plus any supplemental Death Benefits provided by rider;

  .  minus any Policy Debt on that date; and

  .  minus the premium that would have been required to keep the Policy in
     force if the date of death occurred during a grace period.

Under certain circumstances, we may further adjust the amount of the Death
Benefit payable. See the "Incontestability," the "Misstatement of Age or
Gender" and the "Suicide" provisions of this prospectus.

The minimum Specified Amount is $100,000 under a single life Policy and
$200,000 under a joint and last survivor Policy.

DEATH BENEFIT OPTIONS

A Policy must satisfy either one of two tests to qualify as a life insurance
contract for purposes of Section 7702 of the Code. At the time of application,
you must choose either the Cash Value Accumulation Test or the Guideline
Premium Test. Once chosen, the tax qualification test cannot be changed. For
each tax qualification test, there are three Death Benefit options available
under the Policy. The Death Benefit will be the greater of the Death Benefit
under the Death Benefit option you select or the Minimum Death Benefit
resulting from the chosen tax qualification test.

For any Death Benefit option, the calculation of the Minimum Death Benefit is
shown in the Policy. The Minimum Death Benefit generally is the lowest Death
Benefit which will qualify the Policy as life insurance under Section 7702 of
the Code.

For an Insured under a single life Policy or either Insured under a joint and
last survivor Policy where the Attained Age of the Insured is less than 100,
the Death Benefit is set forth below.

  .  Under Option A, the Death Benefit is the Specified Amount plus the
     Account Value.

                                       51






  .  Under Option B, the Death Benefit is the Specified Amount.

  .  Under Option C, the Death Benefit is:

    .  the greater of Specified Amount; or

    .  the Specified Amount; plus

    .  the sum of all premiums paid before Attained Age 75 of the Insured
       under a single life Policy or the younger Insured under a joint and
       last survivor Policy (for 1035 exchanges, the premiums paid under the
       old policy; minus

    .  any partial surrender of premiums and charges for supplemental non-
       qualified benefits as defined in the Code; minus

    .  the charges for supplemental benefits, other than those specified in
       Section 7702(f)(5)(A) of the Code; minus

    .  all partial surrenders.

Under Options A, B and C for Attained Ages 100 and older, the Death Benefit is
the Account Value multiplied by 101%.

Under all options, we determine the Specified Amount and the Account Value on
the Valuation Day of the death of the Insured under a single life Policy and of
the last surviving Insured under a joint and last survivor Policy.

Under Death Benefit Option A, the Death Benefit Proceeds will vary directly
with the investment performance of the portfolios. Under Death Benefit Option
B, the Death Benefit Proceeds ordinarily will not change until the applicable
percentage amount of the Account Value exceeds the Specified Amount or you
change the Specified Amount. Under Death Benefit Option C, the Death Benefit
will vary directly with premium payments.

CHANGING THE DEATH BENEFIT OPTION

You select the Death Benefit option when you apply for the Policy. However, you
may request a change to Option A or Option B on your Policy at any time by
writing to our Service Center. Changes to Option C are not permitted. The
effective date of the change will be the Monthly Anniversary Date after we
receive the request for the change. We will send you revised Policy data pages
reflecting the new option and the effective date of the change. We will adjust
the Specified Amount on the effective date of the change in Death Benefit
option to ensure the Death Benefit after the change equals the Death Benefit
before the change. A change in the Death Benefit option will affect the cost of
insurance charges.

                                       52



CHANGING THE SPECIFIED AMOUNT

After a Policy has been in effect for one year, you may increase or decrease
the Specified Amount. The maximum monthly charge that can be assessed for an
increase in Specified Amount is $0.83 per $1,000 of increase in Specified
Amount for the first 10 Policy Years after the increase. To make a change, you
must send a written request and the Policy to our Service Center. Any change in
the Specified Amount may affect the cost of insurance rate and the net amount
at risk, both of which may change your cost of insurance. See the "Monthly
Deduction" and the "Cost of Insurance" provisions of this prospectus. Depending
on your Account Value at the time of an increase in the Specified Amount and
the amount of the increase requested, it may be advisable to change your
periodic payments upon an increase in the Specified Amount.

Any change in the Specified Amount will affect the maximum premium limitation.
If a decrease in the Specified Amount causes the premiums to exceed new lower
limitations required by Federal tax law, we will withdraw the excess from the
Account Value and refund it to you so that the Policy will continue to meet
these requirements. We will withdraw the assets that we refund from each
Investment Option in the same proportion that the assets in that Investment
Option bears to the total assets in all Investment Options under the Policy at
the time of the withdrawal (i.e., on a pro-rata basis).

Any decrease in the Specified Amount will become effective on the Monthly
Anniversary Date after the date we receive the request. The decrease will first
apply to coverage provided by the most recent increase, then to the next most
recent increases successively, then to the coverage under the original
application. During the Continuation Period, we will not allow a decrease
unless the Account Value less any Policy Debt is greater than the surrender
charge. The Specified Amount following a decrease can never be less than the
minimum Specified Amount for the Policy when we issued it. A decrease may cause
us to assess a surrender charge and may require us to pay excess Account Value.

To apply for an increase, you must complete a supplemental application and
submit evidence of insurability satisfactory to us. Any approved increase will
become effective on the date shown in the supplemental Policy data page. Please
note that an increase will not become effective if the Policy's Surrender Value
is too low to cover the monthly deduction for the Policy Month following the
increase.

An increase in the Specified Amount will increase the Continuation Amounts and
may result in a surrender charge.

A change in your Specified Amount may have Federal tax consequences. See the
"Tax Considerations" provision of this prospectus.

                                       53


Surrenders and Partial Surrenders

SURRENDERS

You may cancel and surrender your Policy at any time before the Insured dies
under a single life Policy or the last surviving Insured dies under a joint and
last survivor Policy. The Policy will terminate on the Valuation Day we receive
your request at our Service Center. You will not be able to reinstate the
Policy.

We will pay you the Surrender Value in a lump sum unless you make other
arrangements. You will incur a surrender charge if you surrender your Policy
during the first 10 Policy years. See the "Surrender Charge" provision of this
prospectus. A surrender may have adverse tax consequences. See the "Tax
Considerations" provision of this prospectus.

PARTIAL SURRENDERS

You may take partial surrenders at any time under your Policy. If you elected
Death Benefit Option B, you only may take partial surrenders after the first
Policy year. The minimum partial surrender amount is $200.

We reserve the right to assess a processing fee for each partial surrender
equal to the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount partially surrendered, although
we currently do not do so. See the "Partial Surrender Processing Fee" provision
of this prospectus. The amount of the partial surrender will equal the amount
you requested to surrender plus the processing fee.

When you request a partial surrender, you can direct how we deduct the partial
surrender from your Account Value. If you provide no directions, we will deduct
the partial surrender proportionately from the Investment Options in which you
are invested.

State law requires that we reserve the right to defer payments from the
Guarantee Account and General Account for a partial surrender or surrender for
up to six months from the date we receive your request for payment.

EFFECT OF PARTIAL SURRENDERS

A partial surrender will reduce both the Account Value and the Death Benefit
Proceeds by the amount of the partial surrender.

                                       54


Loans


GENERAL

You may borrow up to the following amount:

  .  90% of the difference between your Account Value at the end of the
     Valuation Period during which we received your loan request and any
     surrender charges on the date of the loan;

  .  less any outstanding Policy Debt.

The minimum Policy loan is $500. You may request Policy loans by writing to our
Service Center at the address on page 1 of this Prospectus.

When we make a loan, we transfer an amount equal to the loan proceeds from your
Account Value in the Separate Account and the Guarantee Account to our General
Account and hold it as "collateral" for the loan. If you do not direct an
allocation for this transfer, we will make it on a pro-rata basis from each
Investment Option in which you have invested. We will pay interest at an annual
rate of at least 4.0% on that collateral.

During the first 10 Policy years, we pay interest at an annual rate of 4.25% on
collateral corresponding to Policy Debt and charge interest daily at an
effective annual rate of 4.40% on outstanding Policy Debt. After the 10th
Policy year, we pay interest at an annual rate of 4.00% on collateral and
charge interest daily at an effective annual rate of 4.00% on outstanding
Policy Debt, essentially providing a Policy loan without an interest charge.
Currently, for Policy years six through ten, we pay the same rate of interest
on collateral and charge the same rate of interest on Policy Debt as we do
after the 10th Policy year, however, we may, in our sole discretion, change
this practice in the future.

Interest is due and payable at the end of each Policy Year while a Policy loan
is outstanding. If, on any Policy Anniversary, you have not paid interest
accrued since the last Policy Anniversary, we add the amount of the interest to
the loan and this becomes part of your outstanding Policy Debt. We transfer the
interest due from each Investment Option on a pro-rata basis.

You may repay a loan at any time during an Insured's life while your Policy is
in effect. When you repay a loan, we transfer an amount equal to the repayment
from our General Account to the Separate Account and the Guarantee Account and
allocate the payment as you directed when you repay the loan. If you provide no
directions, we will allocate the amount according to your standing instructions
for Net Premium allocations.

REPAYMENT OF POLICY DEBT

You may repay all or part of your Policy Debt at any time while an Insured is
living and the Policy is in effect. We will treat any payments by you (other
than the initial

                                       55



premium) first as the repayment of any outstanding Policy Debt. We will treat
the portion of the payment in excess of any outstanding Policy Debt as an
additional premium payment. See the "Premiums" provision of this prospectus.

When you repay a loan, we transfer an amount equal to the repayment from our
General Account to the Separate Account and/or the Guarantee Account and
allocate it as you directed when you repaid the loan. If you provide no
directions, we will allocate the amount according to your standing instructions
for premium allocations.

You must send loan repayments to our Service Center. We will credit the
repayments as of the Valuation Day we receive them.

EFFECT OF POLICY LOANS

A Policy loan affects the Policy, because we reduce the Death Benefit Proceeds
and Surrender Value under the Policy by the amount of any outstanding loan plus
interest you owe on the loan. Repaying the loan causes the Death Benefit
Proceeds and Surrender Value to increase by the amount of the repayment. As
long as a loan is outstanding, we hold an amount equal to the loan as
collateral. We will credit interest at an annual rate of at least 4.0% on that
collateral. The amount held as collateral is not affected by the Separate
Account investment performance. Amounts transferred from the Separate Account
as collateral will affect the Account Value because we credit such amounts with
an interest rate we declare rather than a rate of return reflecting the
investment performance of the Separate Account.

There are risks involved in taking a Policy loan, a few of which include the
potential for a Policy to lapse if projected earnings, taking into account
outstanding loans, are not achieved. A Policy loan may also have possible
adverse tax consequences that could occur if a Policy lapses with loans
outstanding. See the "Tax Considerations" provision of this prospectus.

We will notify you if the sum of your loans plus any interest you owe on the
loans is more than the Account Value less applicable surrender charges, or if
during the Continuation Period, the sum of your loans plus any interest you owe
on the loans is more than the Account Value less any applicable surrender
charges, and the Net Total Premium is less than the Continuation Amount. If you
do not submit a sufficient payment within 61 days from the date of the notice,
your Policy may terminate.

                                       56


Termination

PREMIUM TO PREVENT TERMINATION

Generally, if on a Monthly Anniversary Date, the Surrender Value of your Policy
is too low to cover the monthly deduction, your Policy will be in default and a
grace period will begin. In that case, we will mail you notice of the
additional premium necessary to prevent your Policy from terminating. You will
have a 61-day grace period from the date we mail the notice to make the
required premium payment.

However, your Policy will not lapse during the Continuation Period, even if
your Surrender Value is too low to cover the monthly deduction, so long as the
Net Total Premium is at least equal to the Continuation Amount. At the end of
the Continuation Period, you may, however, have to make an additional premium
payment to keep the Policy in force.

THE GRACE PERIOD

If the Insured under a single life Policy or both Insureds under a joint and
survivor Policy should die during the grace period before you pay the required
premium, the Death Benefit will still be payable to the Beneficiary, although
we will reduce the amount of the Death Benefit payable by the amount of premium
that would have been required to keep the Policy in force. If you have not paid
the required premium before the grace period ends, your Policy will terminate.
The Policy will have no value and no benefits will be payable. However, you may
reinstate your Policy under certain circumstances.

REINSTATEMENT

If you have not surrendered your Policy, you may reinstate your Policy within
three years after termination, subject to compliance with certain conditions,
including the payment of a necessary premium and submission of satisfactory
evidence of insurability. See your Policy for further information.

                                       57


Payments and Telephone Transactions

REQUESTING PAYMENTS

You may send your written requests for payment to our Service Center or give
them to one of our authorized agents. We will ordinarily pay any Death Benefit
proceeds, loan proceeds or surrender or partial surrender proceeds in a lump
sum within seven days after receipt at our Service Center of all the documents
required for such a payment. Other than the Death Benefit Proceeds, which we
determine as of the Valuation Day of the Insured's death under a single life
Policy or the last surviving Insured's death under a joint and last survivor
Policy, the amount we pay is as of the end of the Valuation Period during which
our Service Center receives all required documents. We may pay your Death
Benefit Proceeds in a lump sum or under an Optional Payment Plan. See the
"Optional Payment Plans" provision of this prospectus.


In most cases, when we pay Death Benefit payments in a lump sum, we will pay
these proceeds either:

  (1) to your Designated Beneficiary(ies) directly in the form of a check; or

  (2) by establishing an interest bearing account called the "GE Secure Access
      Account" for the Designated Beneficiary(ies) in the amount of Death
      Proceeds payable.

When establishing the GE Secure Access Account we will send the Beneficiary a
checkbook within 7 days after we receive all the required documents, and the
Beneficiary will have immediate access to the account simply by writing a check
for all or any part of the amount of the Death Benefit payments payable. The GE
Secure Access Account is part of our General Account. It is not a bank account
and it is not insured by the FDIC or any other government agency. As part of
our General Account, it is subject to the claims of our creditors. We receive a
benefit from all amounts left in the GE Secure Access Account. If we do not
receive instructions from the Beneficiary(ies) with regard to the form of Death
Benefit payment, we will automatically establish the GE Secure Access Account.

Any Death Benefit Proceeds that we pay in one lump sum will include interest
from the date of death to the date of payment. We will pay interest at a rate
we set, or a rate set by law if greater. The minimum interest rate which we may
pay is 2.5%. We will not pay interest beyond one year or any longer time set by
law. We will reduce Death Benefit Proceeds by any outstanding Policy Debt and
any due and unpaid charges and will increase Death Benefit Proceeds by any
benefits added by rider.

We may delay making a payment or processing a transfer request if:

  .  the disposal or valuation of the Separate Account assets is not
     reasonably practicable because the New York Stock Exchange is closed for
     other than a regular holiday or weekend, trading is restricted by the
     SEC, or the SEC declares that an emergency exists; or


                                       58




  .  the SEC by order permits postponement of payment to protect our Policy
     Owners.

We also may defer making payments attributable to a check or draft that has not
cleared the bank on which it is drawn.

State law requires that we reserve the right to defer payments from the
Guarantee Account and General Account for a partial surrender, surrender or
payment of the Death Benefit for up to six months from the date we receive your
request for payment.

TELEPHONE TRANSACTIONS

You may make certain requests under your Policy by calling us provided we
received your prior written authorization at our Service Center. Such requests
include requests for transfers and changes in premium allocations, dollar-cost
averaging, and portfolio rebalancing.


By completing the telephone authorization form, you agree that we will not be
liable for any loss, liability, cost or expense when we follow the telephone
instructions we receive. If we later determine that you did not make a
telephone request, or the request was made without your authorization, you will
bear any loss that resulted from such unauthorized transaction.

We will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions we receive
are genuine. Such procedures may include, among others:

  .  requiring you or a third party you authorized to provide some form of
     personal identification before we act on the telephone instructions;

  .  confirming the telephone transaction in writing to you or a third party
     you authorized; and/or

  .  tape recording telephone instructions.

If we do not follow reasonable procedures, we may be liable for any losses due
to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. We reserve the right to limit
telephone transactions.

To request a telephone transaction, please call our Service Center at
1-800-313-5282.

Tax Considerations

INTRODUCTION

This part of the prospectus discusses the Federal income tax treatment of the
Policy. The Federal income tax treatment of the Policy is complex and sometimes
uncertain. The Federal income tax rules may vary with your particular
circumstances.

This discussion is general and is not intended as tax advice. It does not
address all of the Federal income tax rules that may affect you and your
Policy. This discussion also does not address Federal estate or gift tax
consequences, or state or local tax consequences, associated with a Policy. As
a result, you should always consult a tax advisor about the application of tax
rules to your individual situation.

TAX STATUS OF THE POLICY

Federal income tax law generally grants favorable treatment to life insurance;
the proceeds paid on the death of the Insured (or last surviving Insured for
the joint and last survivor version of the Policy) are excluded from the gross
income of the Beneficiary, and the Owner is not taxed on increases in the
Account Value unless amounts are distributed while the Insured (or last
surviving Insured) is alive. The Policy is designed to comply with one of two
alternative tests under the tax law. For Policies designed to comply with the
tax law's Guideline Premium Test, this favorable tax treatment will apply to
your Policy only if the premiums paid for your Policy do not exceed a limit
established by the tax law. An increase or decrease in the Policy's Specified
Amount may change this premium limit. Also, a Minimum Death Benefit requirement
must be satisfied. Due to the coverage of more than one Insured under the joint
and survivor version of the Policy, there is some uncertainty about how the tax
law's limit on premiums should be calculated. As a result, we may need to
return a portion of your premiums, with earnings thereon, and impose higher
cost of insurance charges (not exceeding those guaranteed) in the future. We
will monitor the premiums paid for your Policy to keep them within the tax
law's limit.

For Policies designed to comply with the tax law's Cash Value Accumulation
Test, the Policy's terms define a Minimum Death Benefit that is different than
that imposed by the Guideline Premium Test. There is also uncertainty regarding
the application of this test to the joint and survivor version of the Policy.
As necessary to ensure compliance, we may need to amend this Policy, e.g., to
generally provide higher Death Benefit factors.

Regardless of the tax compliance test selected, two other requirements must be
met for your Policy to receive favorable tax treatment as life insurance:

  .  the investments of the Separate Account must be "adequately diversified"
     in accordance with Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") regulations; and

  .  your right to choose particular investments for a Policy must be limited.

Investments in the Separate Account must be diversified. The IRS has issued
regulations that prescribe standards for determining whether the investments of
the Separate Account including the assets of the portfolios in which the
Separate

                                       60



Account invests, are "adequately diversified." If the Separate Account fails to
comply with these diversification standards, you could be required to pay tax
currently on the excess of the Account Value over the premiums paid for the
Policy.

Although we do not control the investments of all of the portfolios (we only
indirectly controls those of GE Investments Funds, Inc., through an affiliated
company), we expect that the portfolios will comply with the IRS regulations so
that the Separate Account will be considered "adequately diversified."

Restrictions on the extent to which you can direct the investment of assets.
Federal income tax law limits your right to choose particular investments for
the Policy. The U.S. Treasury Department stated in 1986 that it expected to
issue guidance clarifying those limits, but it has not yet done so. Thus, the
nature of the limits is currently uncertain. As a result, your right to
allocate assets among the portfolios may exceed those limits. If so, you would
be treated as the owner of a portion of the assets of the Separate Account and
thus subject to current taxation on the income and gains from those assets.

The Company does not know what limits may be set forth in any guidance that the
Treasury Department may issue, or whether any such limits will apply to
existing Policies. The Company therefore reserves the right to modify the
Policy without your consent to attempt to prevent the tax law from considering
you to own a portion of the assets of the Separate Account.

No guarantees regarding tax treatment. The Company makes no guarantees
regarding the tax treatment of any Policy or of any transaction involving a
Policy. However, the remainder of this discussion assumes that your Policy will
be treated as a life insurance contract for Federal income tax purposes and
that the tax law will not impose tax on any increase in your Account Value
until there is a distribution from your Policy.

TAX TREATMENT OF POLICIES -- GENERAL

Death Benefit proceeds and Account Value increases. A Policy's treatment as
life insurance for Federal income tax purposes generally has the following
results:

  .  Death Benefit proceeds are excludable from the gross income of the
     Beneficiary;

  .  you are not taxed on increases in the Account Value unless amounts are
     distributed from the Policy while the Insured (or last surviving Insured)
     is alive;

  .  the taxation of amounts distributed while the Insured is alive depends
     upon whether your Policy is a "modified endowment contract." The term
     "modified endowment contract" is defined in the section entitled
     "Definition of a Modified Endowment Contract" located in the "Special
     Rules for Modified Endowment Contracts" provision of this prospectus.

                                       61




Partial and full surrenders and maturity proceeds. A partial surrender occurs
when you receive less than the total amount of the Policy's Surrender Value;
receipt of the entire Surrender Value is a full surrender. If your Policy is
not a modified endowment contract, you will generally pay tax on the amount of
a partial or full surrender only to the extent it exceeds your "investment in
the contract." In a few states, a maturity value will be paid. Maturity
proceeds will be taxable to the extent the amount received plus Policy Debt
exceeds the "investment in the contract." You will be taxed on this amount at
ordinary income tax rates, not at lower capital gains tax rates. Your
"investment in the contract" generally equals the total of the premiums paid
for your Policy plus the amount of any loan that was includible in your income,
reduced by any amounts you previously received from the Policy that you did not
include in your income.

Special rule for certain cash distributions in the first 15 Policy
years. During the first 15 years after your Policy is issued, if we distribute
cash to you and reduce the Death Benefit Proceeds (e.g., by decreasing the
Policy's Specified Amount), you may be required to pay tax on all or part of
the cash payment, even if it is less than your "investment in the contract."
This also may occur if we distribute cash to you up to two years before the
proceeds are reduced, or if the cash payment is made in anticipation of the
reduction. However, you will not be required to pay tax on more than the amount
by which your Account Value exceeds your "investment in the contract."

Considerations where Insured lives past Age 100. If the Insured survives (or
last surviving Insured) beyond Age 100, the IRS may seek to deny the tax-free
treatment of the Death Benefit Proceeds and instead tax you on the amount by
which your Account Value exceeds your "investment in the contract." Because we
believe the Policy continues to meet the Federal tax definition of life
insurance beyond Age 100, we have no current plans to withhold or report taxes
in this situation.

Accelerated Benefit Rider. Your Policy may contain an Accelerated Benefit
Rider, which provides you with access to a portion of the Death Benefit if the
Insured becomes terminally ill. The accelerated benefit payment is treated in
the same manner as Death Benefit Proceeds for tax purposes, meaning that it
generally will be excludable from gross income. But if the Insured under the
Policy is an officer, director, or employee of the Owner of the Policy, or is
financially interested in the trade or business of the Owner, the payment would
be taxable in part.

Loans. If your Policy is not a modified endowment contract, a loan received
under a Policy (i.e., Policy Debt) normally will be treated as your
indebtedness. Hence, so long as the Policy remains in force, you will generally
not be taxed on any part of a Policy loan. However, it is possible that you
could have additional income for tax purposes

                                       62



for periods when the interest crediting rate on collateral is the same as the
loan interest rate. If your Policy terminates (by a full surrender or by a
lapse) while the Insured (or last surviving Insured) is alive, you will be
taxed on the amount (if any) by which the Policy Debt plus any amount received
in cash exceeds your investment in the contract.

Generally, interest paid on Policy Debt or other indebtedness related to the
Policy will not be tax deductible, except in the case of certain indebtedness
under a Policy covering a "key person." A tax advisor should be consulted
before taking any Policy loan.

Loss of interest deduction where policies are held by or for the benefit of
corporations, trusts, etc. If an entity (such as a corporation or a trust, not
an individual) purchases a Policy or is the Beneficiary of a Policy issued
after June 8, 1997, a portion of the interest on indebtedness unrelated to the
Policy may not be deductible by the entity. However, this rule does not apply
to a Policy owned by an entity engaged in a trade or business which covers the
life of an individual who is:

  .  a 20% owner of the entity; or

  .  an officer, director, or employee of the trade or business, at the time
     first covered by the Policy.

This rule also does not apply to a Policy owned by an entity engaged in a trade
or business which covers the joint lives of an Owner who is a 20% owner of the
entity and the Owner's spouse at the time first covered by the Policy. Entities
that are considering purchasing the Policy, or that will be Beneficiaries under
a Policy, should consult a tax advisor.

Optional Payment Plans. If Death Benefit Proceeds under the Policy are paid
under one of the Optional Payment Plans, the Beneficiary will be taxed on a
portion of each payment (at ordinary income tax rates). The Company will notify
the Beneficiary annually of the taxable amount of each payment. However, if the
Death Benefit Proceeds are held by the Company under Optional Payment Plan 4
(interest income), the Beneficiary will be taxed on the interest income as it
is credited.

Changes and exchanges. The right to change Owners and changes reducing future
amounts of Death Benefit Proceeds may have tax consequences depending upon the
circumstances of each change. The exchange of one life insurance contract for
another life insurance contract generally is not taxed (unless cash is
distributed or a loan is reduced or forgiven). However, in the case of the
Policy when issued as a joint and last survivor Policy, the other life
insurance contract involved in the exchange generally must also cover the same
two Insureds. The exercise of the option to split the joint and last survivor
version of the Policy into two separate life insurance contracts may result in
the taxation of the Policy as if there were a full surrender.


                                       63



SPECIAL RULES FOR MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS

Definition of a "Modified Endowment Contract." Special rules apply to a Policy
classified as a modified endowment contract. A Policy will be classified as a
modified endowment contract if either of the following is true:

  .  if premiums are paid more rapidly than allowed by a "7-pay test" under
     the tax law. At your request, we will let you know the amount of premium
     that may be paid for your Policy in any year that will avoid modified
     endowment contract treatment under the 7-pay test;

  .  if the Policy is received in exchange for another policy that is a
     modified endowment contract.

Due to the coverage of more than one Insured under the joint and last survivor
version of the Policy, there are special considerations in applying the 7-pay
test. For example, a reduction in the Death Benefit at any time, such as may
occur upon a partial surrender, may cause the Policy to be a modified endowment
contract, resulting in the application of the tax treatment described below.
Generally, the manner of applying the 7-pay test is somewhat uncertain in the
case of contracts covering more than one Insured.

Tax Treatment of Modified Endowment Contracts. If a Policy is classified as a
modified endowment contract, the following special rules apply:

  .  a partial surrender will be taxable to you to the extent that your
     Account Value exceeds your investment in the Policy;

  .  a loan from the Policy (together with any unpaid interest included in
     Policy Debt), and the amount of any assignment or pledge of the Policy,
     will be taxed in the same manner as a partial surrender.

A penalty tax of 10% will be imposed on the amount of any full or partial
surrender, loan and unpaid loan interest included in Policy Debt, assignment,
or pledge on which you must pay tax. However, the penalty tax does not apply to
a distribution made:

  (1)  after you attain age 59 1/2;

  (2)  because you have become disabled, within the meaning of the tax law; or

  (3)  in substantially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than
       annually) made over your life or life expectancy (or over the joint
       lives or life expectancies of you and your beneficiary, within the
       meaning of the tax law).

Special rules if you own more than one Modified Endowment Contract. All
modified endowment contracts that we (or any of our affiliates) issue to you
within the same calendar year will be combined to determine the amount of any
distribution from the Policy that will be taxable to you.

Interpretative issues. The tax law's rules relating to modified endowment
contracts are complex and open to considerable variation in interpretation. You
should consult

                                       64



your tax advisor before making any decisions regarding changes in coverage
under or distributions from your Policy.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING

We may be required to withhold and pay to the IRS a part of the taxable portion
of each distribution made under a Policy. However, in many cases, you may elect
not to have any amounts withheld. You are responsible for payment of all taxes
and early distribution penalties, regardless of whether you request that no
taxes be withheld or if we do not withhold a sufficient amount of taxes. At the
time you request a distribution from the Policy, we will send you forms that
explain the withholding requirements.

TAX STATUS OF THE COMPANY

Under existing Federal income tax law, we do not expect to incur any Federal
income tax liability on the income or gains in the Separate Account. Based upon
this expectation, we do not impose a charge for Federal income taxes. If
Federal income tax law changes and we are required to pay taxes on some or all
of the income and gains earned by the Separate Account, we may impose a charge
for those taxes.

We may also incur state and local taxes, in addition to premium taxes for which
a deduction from premiums is currently made. At present, these taxes are not
significant. If there is a material change in state or local tax laws, we may
impose a charge for any taxes attributable to the Separate Account.

CHANGES IN THE LAW AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

This discussion is based on our understanding of the Federal income tax law
existing on the date of this prospectus. Congress, the IRS, and the courts may
modify these laws at any time, and may do so retroactively. Any person
concerned about the tax implications of ownership of a Policy should consult a
tax advisor.

Other Policy Information


OPTIONAL PAYMENT PLANS

The Policy currently offers the following five Optional Payment Plans, free of
charge, as alternatives to the payment of a Death Benefit or Surrender Value in
a lump sum (see the "Requesting Payments" provision):


  Plan 1 -- Income For A Fixed Period. We will make equal periodic payments
  for a fixed period not longer than 30 years. Payments can be annual, semi-
  annual, quarterly, or monthly. If the payee dies before the end of the fixed
  period, we will discount the amount of the remaining guaranteed payments to
  the date of the payee's death at a yearly rate of 3%. We will pay the
  discounted amount in one sum to the payee's estate unless otherwise
  provided. Discounted means we will deduct the amount of interest each
  remaining payment would have included had it not been paid out early.

  Plan 2 -- Life Income. We will make equal monthly payments for a guaranteed
  minimum period. If the payee lives longer than the minimum period, payments
  will continue for his or her life. The minimum period can be 10, 15, or 20
  years. If the payee dies before the end of the guaranteed period, we will
  discount the amount of remaining payments for the minimum period at the same
  interest rate used to calculate the monthly income. We will pay the
  discounted amount in one sum to the payee's estate unless otherwise
  provided.

  Plan 3 -- Income of a Definite Amount. We will make equal periodic payments
  of a definite amount. Payments can be annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or
  monthly. The amount paid each year must be at least $120 for each $1,000 of
  proceeds. Payments will continue until the proceeds are exhausted. The last
  payment will equal the amount of any unpaid proceeds. If the payee dies, we
  will pay the amount of the remaining proceeds with earned interest in one
  sum to the payee's estate unless otherwise provided.

  Plan 4 -- Interest Income. We will make periodic payments of interest earned
  from the proceeds left with us. Payments can be annual, semi-annual,
  quarterly or monthly and will begin at the end of the first period chosen.
  If the payee dies, we will pay the amount of remaining proceeds and any
  earned but unpaid interest in one sum to the payee's estate unless otherwise
  provided.

  Plan 5 -- Joint Life And Survivor Income. We will make equal monthly
  payments to two payees for a guaranteed minimum of 10 years. Each payee must
  be at least 35 years old when payments begin. Payments will continue as long
  as either payee is living. If both payees die before the end of the minimum
  period, we will discount the amount of the remaining payments for the 10-
  year period at the same interest rate used to calculate the monthly income.
  We will pay the discounted amount in one sum to the survivor's estate unless
  otherwise provided.

                                       66



You may select an Optional Payment Plan in your application or by writing our
Service Center. We will transfer any amount left with us for payment under an
Optional Payment Plan to our General Account. Payments under an Optional
Payment Plan will not vary with the investment performance of the Separate
Account because they are forms of fixed-benefit annuities. See the "Tax
Treatment of Policies" provision of this prospectus. Amounts allocated to an
Optional Payment Plan will earn interest at 3% compounded annually. Certain
conditions and restrictions apply to payments received under an Optional
Payment Plan. For further information, please review your Policy or contact one
of our authorized agents.


DIVIDENDS

The Policy is non-participating. We will not pay dividends on the Policy.

INCONTESTABILITY

The Policy limits our right to contest the Policy as issued, reinstated or as
increased, except for material misstatements contained in the application or a
supplemental application, after it has been in force for a minimum period
during the Insured's lifetime under the single life version or the lifetimes of
both Insureds under the joint and last survivor version, generally for two
years from the Policy Date, date of reinstatement or effective date of the
increase. This provision does not apply to riders that provide disability
benefits (subject to state exception).

SUICIDE EXCLUSION

If the Insured under a single life Policy commits suicide while sane or insane
within two years of the Policy Date, all coverage under the Policy will end,
and we will pay the Beneficiary an amount equal to all premiums paid, less
outstanding Policy Debt and less amounts paid upon partial surrender of the
Policy.

If the Insured under a single life Policy commits suicide while sane or insane
more than two years after the Policy Date but within two years after the
effective date of an increase in the Specified Amount, we will limit the amount
payable with respect to that increase. The amount payable attributable to the
increase will equal the monthly deductions for the increase. Such Death Benefit
Proceeds will be paid to the Beneficiary under the same conditions as the
initial Specified Amount.

If either Insured under a joint and last survivor Policy commits suicide while
sane or insane within two years of the Policy Date, all coverage under the
Policy will end, and we will pay the Beneficiary an amount equal to all
premiums paid, less outstanding Policy Debt and less amounts paid upon partial
surrender of the Policy.

If the first Insured to die commits suicide while sane or insane more than two
years after the Policy Date but within two years after the effective date of an
increase in the Specified Amount, we will limit the amount payable with respect
to that increase.

                                       67



The amount payable to the Beneficiary attributable to the increase will equal
the monthly deductions for the increase.

If the last surviving Insured to die commits suicide while sane or insane more
than two years after the Policy Date but within 2 years after the effective
date of an increase in the Specified Amount, we will limit the proceeds payable
with respect to that increase. The proceeds payable attributable to the
increase will equal the additional premium payment required for the increase.
Such Death Benefit Proceeds will be paid to the Beneficiary under the same
conditions as the initial Specified Amount.

Please see your Policy for more details.

MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR GENDER

We will adjust the Death Benefit Proceeds if you misstated an Insured's Age or
gender in your application.

WRITTEN NOTICE

You should send any written notice to us at our Service Center at the address
listed on page 1 of this prospectus. The notice should include the Policy
number and the full name of the Insured for a single life Policy or each
Insured for a joint and last survivor Policy. We will send any notice to the
address shown in the application unless an appropriate address change form has
been filed with us.

TRUST

If you name a trust as the Owner or Beneficiary of the Policy and the trustee
subsequently exercises ownership rights or claims benefits thereunder, we will
have no obligation to verify that a trust is in effect or that the trustee is
acting within the scope of his/her authority. Payment of Policy benefits to the
trustee will release us from all obligations under the Policy to the extent of
the payment. When we make a payment to the trustee, we will have no obligation
to ensure that such payment is applied according to the terms of the trust
agreement.

OTHER CHANGES

At any time, we may make such changes in the Policy as are necessary:

  .  to assure compliance at all times with the definition of life insurance
     prescribed by the Code:

  .  to make the Policy, our operations, or the operation of the Separate
     Account to conform with any law or regulation issued by any government
     agency to which they are subject; or

  .  to reflect a change in the operation of the Separate Account, if allowed
     by the Policy.


                                       68



Only the President or a Vice President of the Company has the right to change
the Policy. No agent has the authority to change the Policy or waive any of its
terms. The President or a Vice President of the Company must sign all
endorsements, amendments, or riders to be valid.

REPORTS

We maintain records and accounts of all transactions involving the Policy, the
Separate Account, the Guarantee Account and Policy Debt. Within 30 days after
each Policy Anniversary, we will send you a report showing information about
your Policy. The report will show:

  .  the Specified Amount;

  .  the Account Value;

  .  the value in each Investment Option;

  .  the Surrender Value;

  .  the Policy Debt; and

  .  the premiums paid and charges made during the Policy year.

We also will send you an annual and a semi-annual report for each Fund
underlying a Subaccount to which you have allocated assets, as required by the
1940 Act. In addition, when you pay premiums (other than by pre-authorized
checking account deduction), or if you take out a Policy loan, take transfers
or make partial surrenders, you will receive a written confirmation of these
transactions.


SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFITS

There are several supplemental benefits that may be added to a single life
Policy, as well as a joint and last survivor Policy. These benefits may not be
available in all markets.

All riders may be added at the time the Policy is issued and after issue.
Riders may be canceled at any time by notifying us in writing at the Service
Center.


We will deduct monthly charges from your Account Value as part of the monthly
deduction for the benefits described above. See the "Charges and Deductions,
Monthly Deduction" provision of this prospectus.

Additional rules and limits apply to these supplemental benefits. Please ask
your authorized representative of the Company for further information and
individual illustrations or contact our Service Center at the address or
telephone number listed on page 1 of this prospectus.



                                       69



Riders Available on Single Life Policies

Waiver of Monthly Deduction Rider. In the event of total disability, this rider
will provide the payments of Premiums to the Policy. The rider is available for
issue ages 15-60 (rating restrictions may apply). The amount of Premium benefit
equal the maximum monthly deduction continuation amount. Coverage under this
rider ends on the Policy anniversary nearest Insured's age 65 unless the
Insured has been continuously disabled for the previous five years. The maximum
cost of the rider is 38.24% of the total monthly Cost of Insurance charges,
including rider cost of insurance.

Accidental Death Benefit. This rider provides an additional Death Benefit
should the Insured's death occur as a result of an accident (as defined by the
rider). The amount is paid in addition to the Specified Amount of the base
Policy. The Specified Amount of the rider can be from $5,000 to $200,000, but
may not exceed the Specified Amount of the base Policy. The maximum annual
charge is $2.24 per $1,000 of Specified Amount but ends at attained age 70.

Riders Available on Joint Life Policies Only:

Four Year Term Rider. This rider provides term insurance coverage on the
Insured that dies last. The four year term rider will use the same current and
guaranteed Cost of Insurance rates that are used on the base Policy.

Policy Split Option Rider. This rider allows the Owner to split a Policy into
two individual Policies in the event of a divorce or a substantial change in
estate tax law. The maximum Death Benefit available on either insured is equal
to one-half of the base Policy Specified Amount. There is no charge for this
rider, but evidence of insurability is required when the split is requested.

USING THE POLICY AS COLLATERAL

You can assign the Policy as collateral security. You must notify us in writing
on the appropriate form if you assign the Policy. Any payments we made before
the assignment will not be affected. We are not responsible for the validity of
an assignment. An assignment may affect your rights and the rights of the
Beneficiary.

REINSURANCE

We may reinsure a portion of the risks assumed under the Policies.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company like other life insurance companies, is involved in lawsuits,
including class action lawsuits. In some class action and other lawsuits
involving insurance companies, substantial damages have been sought and/or
material settlement payments have been made. Although the Company cannot
predict the outcome of any litigation with certainty, we believe that at the
present time there are no pending or threatened lawsuits that are reasonably
likely to have a material impact on us or the Separate Account.


Capital Brokerage Corporation, the principal underwriter, is not engaged in any
litigation of any material nature.

                                       70


Additional Information

SALE OF THE POLICIES

We have entered into an underwriting agreement with Capital Brokerage
Corporation (doing business in Indiana, Minnesota, New Mexico, and Texas as GE
Capital Brokerage Corporation) ("CBC") for the distribution and sale of the
Policies. Pursuant to this agreement, the CBC serves as principal underwriter
for the Policies. CBC is located at 6630 W. Broad St., Richmond, Virginia
23230. CBC was organized as a corporation under the laws of the state of
Washington in 1981 and is an affiliate of ours. CBC is registered as a broker-
dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as well as with the securities commissions in the states
in which it operates, and is a member of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc.

CBC offers the Policies through its registered representatives who are
registered with the NASD and with the states in which they do business.
Registered representatives with the CBC are also licensed as insurance agents
in the states in which they do business and are appointed with us.

CBC also enters into selling agreements with an affiliated broker-dealer (Terra
Securities Corporation) and independent broker-dealers to sell the Policies.
The registered representatives of these selling firms are registered with the
NASD and with the states in which they do business, are licensed as insurance
agents in the states in which they do business and are appointed with us.

We pay sales commissions and other marketing related expenses to the CBC for
promotion and sales of the Policies by its registered representatives as well
as by selling firms. In the first Policy year, the selling firm will receive a
commission of up to approximately 90% of the first year target premium (based
on Age, gender, Specified Amount, risk class and other factors). In renewal
years, the selling firm receives up to approximately 4.0% of premiums paid. We
may pay trails commissions up to an annual rate of 0.25% of Account Value, less
any Policy Debt, for all Policy years. This commission may be returned to us if
the Policy is not continued through the first Policy year. We may on occasion
pay a higher commission for a short period of time as a special promotion. In
the case of sales by the Underwriter's registered representatives, a portion of
the sales commission is passed through the Underwriter to its registered
representative who sold the Policy. Because the Underwriter is our affiliate,
their registered representatives are eligible for various cash benefits, such
as bonuses, insurance benefits and financing arrangements, and non-cash
compensation programs that we offer, such as conferences, trips, prizes and
awards.


CBC also receives 12b-1 fees from Alliance Variable Products Series Fund, Inc.,
Fidelity Variable Products Fund, Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund II,
Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund III, Janus Aspen Series, MFS(R)
Variable Insurance Trust, Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds and Van Kampen
Life Investment Trust.

                                       71




In the case of sales by selling firms, CBC passes through the entire amount of
the sales commission to the selling firm whose registered representative sold
the Policy. The selling firm may retain a portion of the commission before it
pays the registered representative who sold the Policy.

We may also make payments for services that do not directly involve the sales
of the Policies. These services may include the recruitment and training of
personnel, production of promotional literature, and similar services.

We intend to recover commissions, marketing, administrative and other expenses
and costs of Policy benefits through fees and charges imposed under the
Policies. Commissions paid on the Policies, including other incentives and
payments, are not charged directly to you or to your Account Value.

OTHER INFORMATION

We have filed a Registration Statement with the SEC, under the Securities Act
of 1933 as amended, for the Policies being offered here. This prospectus does
not contain all the information in the Registration Statement, its amendments
and exhibits. Please refer to the Registration Statement for further
information about the Separate Account, the Company, and the Policies offered.
Statements in this prospectus about the content of Policies and other legal
instruments are summaries. For the complete text of those Policies and
instruments, please refer to those documents as filed with the SEC and
available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov.

HYPOTHETICAL ILLUSTRATIONS

We have included illustrations in this prospectus, and use them in connection
with your purchase of the Policy. These illustrations are based on hypothetical
rates of return that are not guaranteed. The rates are illustrative only, and
do not represent past or future performance. Your actual Account Value and
benefits will be different from these illustrations.



                                       75



The illustrations assume you paid planned premiums annually and the returns on
the assets in the Subaccounts were a uniform gross annual rate of 0%, 6% or
12%, before deduction of any fees and charges. The values reflect the deduction
of all standard Policy and Fund fees and charges. However, the values do not
reflect any fees and charges associated with the rider options. The tables also
show planned premiums accumulated at 5% interest. The values under a Policy
would be different from those shown if the returns averaged 0%, 6% or 12% but
fluctuated over and under those averages throughout the years shown. The
hypothetical investment rates of return are illustrative only and should not be
deemed a representation of past or future investment rates of return. Actual
rates of return for a particular Policy may be more or less than the
hypothetical investment rates of return used in the illustrations.

The illustrations assume an arithmetic annual expense ratio of 0.94% of the
average daily net assets of the portfolios available under the Policies, based
on the portfolios' fees and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 as
shown in the Portfolio Annual Expense Table, shown previously in the
prospectus. (These fees and expenses, and therefore the illustrations, reflect
certain fee waivers and reimbursements provided by some of the portfolios. We
cannot guarantee that these fee waivers and reimbursements will continue.) For
information on portfolio fees and expenses, see the prospectuses for the
portfolios accompanying this prospectus. The illustrations also take into
account the monthly charge we assess for assuming mortality and expense risks,
equal to an annual rate of 0.50% of the first $100,000 of unloaned assets in
the Subaccounts (0.50% of the first $200,000 of unloaned assets in the
Subaccounts for a joint and last survivor Policy) plus an annual rate of 0.10%
of unloaned assets in the Subaccounts above $100,000 ($200,000 for a joint and
last survivor Policy) for the first 20 Policy years. After deduction of these
amounts, the illustrated gross annual investment rates of return of 0%, 6% and
12%, correspond to approximate net annual rates of -0.94%, 5.06%, and 11.06%
respectively.


The illustrations reflect the premium charge and the monthly deduction for the
hypothetical Insured. We reflect our current charges and the higher maximum
guaranteed charges that we have the contractual right to charge in separate
illustrations on each of the following pages. All the illustrations reflect the
fact that no charges for Federal or state income taxes are currently made
against the Separate Account and assume no Policy Debt or charges for
supplemental benefits.

The illustrations reflect our gender distinct rates for no nicotine use. Upon
request, we will furnish a comparable illustration based upon the proposed
Insured's individual circumstances. Such illustrations may assume different
hypothetical rates of return than those illustrated.

  *  Premium in addition to the planned premium is required to keep the Policy
     in effect.

(1)  The values illustrated assume that the planned premium of $4,750 is paid
     at the beginning of each Policy year. Values will be different if premiums
     are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.
(2)  The values and benefits are as of the end of the year shown. They assume
     that no Policy loans or withdrawals have been made. Excessive loans or
     withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse because of insufficient
     surrender value.
(3)  The values and benefits are shown using the maximum expense charges and
     cost of insurance rates allowable under the Policy. Accordingly, if the
     assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were earned, the
     values and benefits of an actual Policy with the listed specifications
     could never be less than those shown, and in some cases may be greater
     than those shown.

The hypothetical gross annual investment rates of return shown above and
elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a
representation of past or future investment rates of return.

Actual investment rates of return may be more or less than those shown and will
depend on a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates, rates of
inflation, and the allocations made by an Owner among the Investment Options.
The gross hypothetical investment rates of return of 0%, 6%, and 12% shown
above correspond to net annual rates of -.94%, 5.06%, and 11.06%. The Death
Benefit and Account Value for a Policy will be different from those shown if
the actual investment rate of return averages 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of
years, but fluctuated above or below those averages for individual Policy
years. No representations can be made by GE Capital Life Assurance Company of
New York or the Funds that these hypothetical investment rates of return can be
achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

(1)  The values illustrated assume that the planned premium of $4,750 is paid
     at the beginning of each Policy year. Values will be different if premiums
     are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.
(2)  The values and benefits are as of the end of the year shown. They assume
     that no Policy loans or withdrawals have been made. Excessive loans or
     withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse because of insufficient
     surrender value.
(3)  The values and benefits are shown using the expense charges and cost of
     insurance rates currently in effect. Although GE Capital Life Assurance
     Company of New York anticipates deducting these charges for the forseeable
     future, THESE CHARGES ARE NOT GUARANTEED AND COULD BE RAISED AT THE
     DISCRETION OF GE CAPITAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK. Accordingly,
     even if the assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were
     earned, the values and benefits under an actual Policy with the listed
     specifications may be less than those shown if the cost of insurance
     charges were increased.

The hypothetical gross annual investment rates of return shown above and
elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a
representation of past or future investment rates of return.

Actual investment rates of return may be more or less than those shown and will
depend on a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates, rates of
inflation, and the allocations made by an Owner among the Investment Options.
The gross hypothetical investment rates of return of 0%, 6%, and 12% shown
above correspond to net annual rates of -.94%, 5.06%, and 11.06%. The Death
Benefit and Account Value for a Policy will be different from those shown if
the actual investment rate of return averages 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of
years, but fluctuated above or below those averages for individual Policy
years. No representations can be made by GE Capital Life Assurance Company of
New York or the Funds that these hypothetical investment rates of return can be
achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

(1)  The values illustrated assume that the planned premium of $13,000 is paid
     at the beginning of each Policy year. Values will be different if premiums
     are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.
(2)  The values and benefits are as of the end of the year shown. They assume
     that no Policy loans or withdrawals have been made. Excessive loans or
     withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse because of insufficient
     surrender value.
(3)  The values and benefits are shown using the maximum expense charges and
     cost of insurance rates allowable under the Policy. Accordingly, if the
     assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were earned, the
     values and benefits of an actual Policy with the listed specifications
     could never be less than those shown, and in some cases may be greater
     than those shown.

The hypothetical gross annual investment rates of return shown above and
elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a

Actual investment rates of return may be more or less than those shown and will

The gross hypothetical investment rates of return of 0%, 6%, and 12% shown

years. No representations can be made by GE Capital Life Assurance Company of

  *  Premium in addition to the planned premium is required to keep the Policy
     in effect.

(1)  The values illustrated assume that the planned premium of $4,750 is paid
     at the beginning of each Policy year. Values will be different if premiums
     are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.
(2)  The values and benefits are as of the end of the year shown. They assume
     that no Policy loans or withdrawals have been made. Excessive loans or
     withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse because of insufficient
     surrender value.
(3)  The values and benefits are shown using the maximum expense charges and
     cost of insurance rates allowable under the Policy. Accordingly, if the
     assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were earned, the
     values and benefits of an actual Policy with the listed specifications
     could never be less than those shown, and in some cases may be greater
     than those shown.

The hypothetical gross annual investment rates of return shown above and
elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a
representation of past or future investment rates of return.

Actual investment rates of return may be more or less than those shown and will
depend on a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates, rates of
inflation, and the allocations made by an Owner among the Investment Options.
The gross hypothetical investment rates of return of 0%, 6%, and 12% shown
above correspond to net annual rates of -.94%, 5.06%, and 11.06%. The Death
Benefit and Account Value for a Policy will be different from those shown if
the actual investment rate of return averages 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of
years, but fluctuated above or below those averages for individual policy
years. no representations can be made by GE Capital Life Assurance Company of
New York or the Funds that these hypothetical investment rates of return can be
achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

(3)  The values and benefits are shown using the expense charges and cost of

     Company of New York anticipates deducting these charges for the forseeable
     future, THESE CHARGES ARE NOT GUARANTEED AND COULD BE RAISED AT THE
     DISCRETION OF GE CAPITAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK. Accordingly,
     even if the assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were
     earned, the values and benefits under an actual Policy with the listed
     specifications may be less than those shown if the cost of insurance
     charges were increased.

The hypothetical gross annual investment rates of return shown above and
elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a

(1)  The values illustrated assume that the planned premium of $4,750 is paid
     at the beginning of each Policy year. Values will be different if premiums
     are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.
(2)  The values and benefits are as of the end of the year shown. They assume
     that no Policy loans or withdrawals have been made. Excessive loans or
     withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse because of insufficient
     surrender value.
(3)  The values and benefits are shown using the expense charges and cost of
     insurance rates currently in effect. Although GE Capital Life Assurance
     Company of New York anticipates deducting these charges for the forseeable
     future, THESE CHARGES ARE NOT GUARANTEED AND COULD BE RAISED AT THE
     DISCRETION OF GE CAPITAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK. Accordingly,
     even if the assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were
     earned, the values and benefits under an actual Policy with the listed
     specifications may be less than those shown if the cost of insurance
     charges were increased.

The hypothetical gross annual investment rates of return shown above and
elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a
representation of past or future investment rates of return.

Actual investment rates of return may be more or less than those shown and will
depend on a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates, rates of
inflation, and the allocations made by an Owner among the Investment Options.
The gross hypothetical investment rates of return of 0%, 6%, and 12% shown
above correspond to net annual rates of -.94%, 5.06%, and 11.06%. The Death
Benefit and Account Value for a Policy will be different from those shown if
the actual investment rate of return averages 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of
years, but fluctuated above or below those averages for individual Policy
years. No representations can be made by GE Capital Life Assurance Company of
New York or the Funds that these hypothetical investment rates of return can be
achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

(1) The values illustrated assume that the planned premium of $13,000 is paid
    at the beginning of each Policy year. Values will be different if premiums
    are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.
(2) The values and benefits are as of the end of the year shown. They assume
    that no Policy loans or withdrawals have been made. Excessive loans or
    withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse because of insufficient
    surrender value.
(3) The values and benefits are shown using the maximum expense charges and
    cost of insurance rates allowable under the Policy. Accordingly, if the
    assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were earned, the values
    and benefits of an actual Policy with the listed specifications could never
    be less than those shown, and in some cases may be greater than those
    shown.

  *  Premium in addition to the planned premium is required to keep the Policy
     in effect.

(1)  The values illustrated assume that the planned premium of $4,750 is paid
     at the beginning of each Policy year. Values will be different if premiums
     are paid with a different frequency or in different amounts.
(2)  The values and benefits are as of the end of the year shown. They assume
     that no Policy loans or withdrawals have been made. Excessive loans or
     withdrawals may cause this Policy to lapse because of insufficient
     surrender value.
(3)  The values and benefits are shown using the maximum expense charges and
     cost of insurance rates allowable under the Policy. Accordingly, if the
     assumed hypothetical gross annual investment return were earned, the
     values and benefits of an actual Policy with the listed specifications
     could never be less than those shown, and in some cases may be greater
     than those shown.

The hypothetical gross annual investment rates of return shown above and
elsewhere in this prospectus are illustrative only and should not be deemed a
representation of past or future investment rates of return.

Actual investment rates of return may be more or less than those shown and will
depend on a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates, rates of
inflation, and the allocations made by an Owner among the Investment Options.
The gross hypothetical investment rates of return of 0%, 6%, and 12% shown
above correspond to net annual rates of -.94%, 5.06%, and 11.06%. The Death
Benefit and Account Value for a Policy will be different from those shown if
the actual investment rate of return averages 0%, 6%, and 12% over a period of
years, but fluctuated above or below those averages for individual Policy
years. No representations can be made by GE Capital Life Assurance Company of
New York or the Funds that these hypothetical investment rates of return can be
achieved for any one year or sustained over any period of time.

                         Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors
GE Capital Life Assurance Company of New York:

   We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of GE Capital Life
Assurance Company of New York as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the
related statements of income, shareholder's interest, and cash flows for each
of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2001. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of GE Capital Life Assurance
Company of New York as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

                 GE CAPITAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK

                         Notes to Financial Statements
                       December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999
                         (Dollar amounts in millions)

(1) Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   The accompanying financial statements include the historical operations and
accounts of GE Capital Life Assurance Company of New York ("GECLA-NY" or "the
Company"). The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Electric
Capital Assurance Company ("GE Capital Assurance"), which, in turn, is wholly-
owned by GE Financial Assurance Holdings, Inc. ("GE Financial Assurance"). GE
Financial Assurance is wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by General
Electric Company.

 Basis of Presentation

   These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Certain prior year amounts may have been reclassified to conform to the
current year presentation.

 Products

   The Company sells a variety of insurance and investment-related products.
Its operations are in two business segments: (i) Wealth Accumulation and
Transfer, and (ii) Lifestyle Protection and Enhancement.

   Wealth Accumulation and Transfer products are investment vehicles and
insurance contracts intended to increase the policyholder's wealth, transfer
wealth to beneficiaries or provide a means for replacing the income of the
insured in the event of premature death. The Company's principal product lines
under the Wealth Accumulation and Transfer segment are deferred annuities,
structured settlements, immediate annuities, and variable annuities.

   Lifestyle Protection and Enhancement products are products intended to
protect accumulated wealth and income from the financial drain of unforeseen
events. The Company's principal product line under the Lifestyle Protection
and Enhancement segment is long-term care insurance.

   The Company markets and sells products in the State of New York through
financial institutions and various agencies. During 2001, 2000 and 1999, 87%,
82%, and 92%, respectively, of product sales were distributed through five
financial institutions, including one financial institution, which accounted
for 59%, 51%, and 60%, respectively, of total product sales.

 Revenues

   Investment income is recorded when earned. Realized investment gains and
losses are calculated on the basis of specific identification. Premiums on
long-duration insurance products are recognized as earned when due or, in the
case of life contingent immediate annuities, when the contracts are issued.
Premiums received under annuity contracts without significant mortality risk
are not reported as revenues but as liabilities for future annuity and
contract benefits. Variable product fees are charged to variable annuity
policyholders based upon the daily net assets of the policyholders' account
values and are recognized as revenue when charged. Other income consists
primarily of surrender charges on certain policies. Surrender charges are
recognized as income when the policy is surrendered.

 Cash Equivalents

   Certificates and other time deposits with original maturities of less than
90 days are considered cash equivalents in the Balance Sheets and Statements
of Cash Flows. Items with maturities greater than 90 days are included in
short term investments.

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Continued
                       December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999
                         (Dollar amounts in millions)


 Investment Securities

   The Company has designated its fixed maturities (bonds and notes) and its
equity securities (non-redeemable preferred stock) as available-for-sale. The
fair value for regularly traded fixed maturities and equity securities is
based on quoted market prices. For fixed maturities not regularly traded, fair
values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services
or are estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using a current
market rate applicable to the credit quality, industry sector, call features
and maturity of the investments, as applicable.

   Changes in the fair values of investments available-for-sale, net of the
effect on deferred policy acquisition costs, present value of future profits,
and deferred federal income taxes, are reflected as unrealized investment
gains or losses in a separate component of shareholder's interest and,
accordingly, have no effect on net income. Investment securities are regularly
reviewed for impairment based on criteria that include the extent to which
cost exceeds market value, the duration of market decline, and the financial
health of the specific prospects for the issuer. Unrealized losses that are
considered other than temporary are recognized in earnings through an
adjustment to the amortized cost basis of the underlying securities. The
Company engages in certain securities lending transactions, which require the
borrower to provide collateral, primarily consisting of cash and government
securities, on a daily basis, in amounts equal to or exceeding 102% of the
market value of the applicable securities loaned.

   Investment income on mortgage and asset-backed securities is initially
based upon yield, cash flow and prepayment assumptions at the date of
purchase. Subsequent revisions in those assumptions are recorded using the
retrospective method, whereby the amortized cost of the securities is adjusted
to the amount that would have existed had the revised assumptions been in
place at the date of purchase. The adjustments to amortized cost are recorded
as a charge or credit to investment income.

   Mortgage and policy loans are stated at the unpaid principal balance of
such loans, net of allowances for estimated uncollectible amounts. The
allowance for losses is determined primarily on the basis of management's best
estimate of probable losses, including specific allowances for known troubled
loans, if any.

   Short-term investments, if any are stated at amortized cost which
appreciates fair value. Equity securities (including seed money for new mutual
fund portfolios) are stated at fair value.

 Intangible Assets

 (a) Present Value of Future Profits

   In conjunction with the acquisitions of life insurance companies, a portion
of the purchase price is assigned to the right to receive future gross profits
arising from existing insurance and investment contracts. This intangible
asset, called the present value of future profits ("PVFP"), represents the
actuarially determined present value of the projected future cash flows from
the acquired policies.

   PVFP is amortized, net of accreted interest, in a manner similar to the
amortization of deferred acquisition costs. Interest accretes at rates
accredited to policyholders on underlying contracts.

   Recoverability of PVFP is evaluated periodically by comparing the current
estimate of expected future gross profits to the unamortized asset balance. If
such comparison indicates that the expected gross profits will not be
sufficient to recover PVFP, the difference is charged to expense.

 (b) Goodwill

   Goodwill is amortized over its estimated period of benefit on the straight-
line method. No amortization period exceeds 25 years. Goodwill in excess of
associated expected operating cash flows is considered to be impaired and is
written down to fair value.

            Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -- Continued
                       December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999
                         (Dollar amounts in millions)


 Deferred Acquisition Costs

   Acquisition costs include costs and expenses that vary with and are
primarily related to the acquisition of insurance and investment contracts.
Deferred acquisition costs capitalized are determined by actual costs and
expenses incurred by product in the year of issue. Such costs are amortized as
follows:

   For investment contracts, amortization of deferred acquisition cost is
based on the present value of the anticipated gross profits resulting from
investments, interest credited, surrender charges and other policy changes,
mortality and maintenance expenses. For insurance contracts, the acquisition
costs are amortized in relation to the estimated benefit payments or the
present value of expected future premiums.

   Deferred acquisition costs are reviewed to determine if they are
recoverable from future income, including investment income, and, if not
considered recoverable, are charged to expense.

 Federal Income Taxes

   The Company is included with GE Capital Assurance in a consolidated life
insurance federal income tax return. Deferred taxes are allocated by applying
the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes to
members of the group as if each member was a separate taxpayer. Intercompany
balances are settled at least annually.

 Reinsurance

   Premium revenue, benefits, underwriting, acquisition and insurance expenses
are reported net of the amounts relating to reinsurance ceded to other
companies, except for reinsurance costs for universal life products. Amounts
due from reinsurers for incurred and estimated future claims are reflected in
the reinsurance recoverable asset. The cost of reinsurance is accounted for
over the terms of the related treaties using assumptions consistent with those
used to account for the underlying reinsured policies.

 Future Annuity and Contract Benefits

   Future annuity and contract benefits consist of the liability for life
insurance policies, accident and health, and deferred annuity contracts.
Investment contract liabilities are generally equal to the policyholder's
current account value. The liability for insurance and accident and health
contracts is calculated based upon actuarial assumptions as to mortality,
morbidity, interest, expense and withdrawals with experience adjustments for
adverse deviation where appropriate.

 Liability for Policy and Contract Claims

   The liability for policy and contract claims represents the amount needed
to provide for the estimated ultimate cost of settling claims relating to
insured events that have occurred on or before the end of the respective
reporting period. The estimated liability includes requirements for future
payments of (a) claims that have been reported to the insurer, (b) estimated
claims related to insured events that have occurred but that have not been
reported to the insurer, as of the date the liability is estimated, and (c)
claim adjustment expenses. Claim adjustment expenses include costs incurred in
the claim settlement process such as legal fees and costs to record, process,
and adjust claims.

 Separate Accounts

   The separate account assets and liabilities represent funds held, and the
related liabilities for, the exclusive benefit of the variable annuity
contract owners. The Company receives mortality risk fees and administration
charges from the variable mutual fund portfolios. The separate account assets
are carried at fair value and are equivalent to the liabilities that represent
the policyholders' equity in those assets.

 Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted

   SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, modify the accounting for business combinations, goodwill
and identifiable intangible assets. As of January 1, 2002, all goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets must be tested for impairment, and, if
necessary, a transition adjustment will be recognized. Management has not yet
determined the exact amount of goodwill impairment under these new standards,
if any. Amortization of goodwill will cease as of January 1, 2002, and
thereafter, all goodwill and any indefinite-lived intangible assets must be
tested at least annually for impairment. The effect of the non-amortization
provisions on 2002 operations will be affected by 2002 acquisitions, if any,
and cannot be forecast, but if these rules had applied to goodwill in 2001,
management believes that full-year 2001 net earnings would have increased by
approximately $3.4.

   Bonds with ratings ranging from AAA/Aaa to BBB-/Baa3 are generally regarded
as investment grade securities. Some agencies and treasuries (that is, those
securities issued by the United States government or an agency thereof) are
not rated, but all are considered to be investment grade securities. Finally,
certain securities, such as private placements, have not been assigned a
rating by any rating service and are therefore categorized as "not rated."
This has neither positive nor negative implications regarding the value of the
security.

   At December 31, 2001 and 2000, there were fixed maturities in default
(issuer has missed a coupon payment or entered bankruptcy) with a fair value
of $6.0 and $1.7, respectively.

Mortgage Loans

   At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company's mortgage loan portfolio
consisted of first mortgage loans on commercial real estate properties of 189
and 221, respectively. The loans, which are originated by the Company through
a network of mortgage bankers, are made on completed, leased properties and
generally have a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 75% at the date of
origination.

   At December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, the Company held $73.0 and
$81.8 in mortgages secured by real estate in California, comprising 21.4% and
24.8% of the respective total mortgage portfolio. For the years ended December
31, 2001, 2000, 1999, respectively, the Company originated $9.3, $12.8 and
$38.3 of mortgages secured by real estate in California, which represent
27.1%, 14.7% and 40.9% and of the respective total originations for those
years.

   As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company was committed to fund $7.1
and $2.0, respectively, in mortgage loans.

   "Impaired" loans are defined under U.S. GAAP as loans for which it is
probable that the lender will be unable to collect all amounts due according
to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement. That definition
excludes, among other things, leases or large groups of smaller-balance
homogeneous loans, and therefore applies principally to the Company's
commercial loans. There were no impaired loans at December 31, 2001 and 2000.

(3) Deferred Acquisition Costs

   Activity impacting deferred acquisition costs for the years ended December
31, was as follows:

(4) Intangible Assets

Present Value of Future Profits (PVFP)

   The method used by the Company to value PVFP in connection with
acquisitions is summarized as follows: (1) identify the future gross profits
attributable to certain lines of business, (2) identify the risks inherent in
realizing those gross profits, and (3) discount those gross profits at the
rate of return that the Company must earn in order to accept the inherent
risks.

   Recoverability of PVFP is evaluated periodically by comparing the current
estimate of expected future gross profits to the unamortized asset balance. If
such comparison indicates that the expected gross profits will not be
sufficient to recover PVFP, the difference is charged to expense.

   The following table presents the activity in PVFP for the years ended
December 31:



                                                         2001    2000   1999

                                                        ======  ======  =====


   The estimated percentage of the December 31, 2001 balance, before the
effect of unrealized investment gains or losses, to be amortized over each of
the next five years is as follows:

           2005................................................... 9.2%
           2006................................................... 9.3%


   Amortization expense in future periods may be impacted by acquisitions,
realized capital gains or other factors affecting the emergence of gross
profits from certain lines of business.

Goodwill

   At December 31, 2001 and 2000, total unamortized goodwill was $54.1 and
$43.7, respectively, which is presented net of accumulated amortization of
$15.4 and $12.0, respectively. Goodwill amortization was $3.4, $2.0, and $1.5
for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Goodwill
in excess of associated expected operating cash flows is considered to be
impaired and is written down to fair value (no such write-downs have been
made).

(5) Reinsurance

   Certain policy risks are reinsured with other insurance companies to limit
the amount of loss retention. Reinsurance contracts do not relieve the Company
of its obligations to policyholders. In the event that the reinsurers would be
unable to meet their obligations, the Company is liable for the reinsured
claims. The Company monitors both the financial condition of individual
reinsurers and risk concentrations arising from similar geographic regions,
activities and economic characteristics of reinsurers to lessen the risk of
default by such reinsurers. The Company does not have significant
concentrations of reinsurance with any one reinsurer that could have a
material impact on its results of operations.

   The Company has a reinsurance agreement with an affiliated company whereby
the Company assumed all liabilities and future premiums related to the
affiliate's New York business. Certain fixed maturities with a fair value of
$344.2 and $259.7 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, were held in
trust for the benefit of policyholders.

   In July 2000, the Company began underwriting and distributing long-term
care insurance through a strategic alliance with The Travelers Insurance
Company ("Travelers") and certain of its Citigroup affiliates. Under the
arrangement, the Company assumed through indemnity reinsurance 90% of
Travelers existing long-term care insurance business issued in New York and
entered into a continuing agreement with various Citigroup distribution
channels including Travelers.

   The maximum amount of individual ordinary life insurance normally retained
by the Company on any one life may not exceed $0.2. The effects of reinsurance
on premiums written and earned for the years ended December 31 were as
follows:

   Reinsurance recoveries recognized as a reduction of benefits amounted to
$16.9, $14.2 and $9.3 during 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. These
recoveries were partially offset by certain changes in benefits and other
policy reserves.

(6) Future Annuity and Contract Benefits

Investment Contracts

   Investment contracts are broadly defined to include contracts without
significant mortality or morbidity risk. Payments received from sales of
investment contracts are recognized by providing a liability equal to the
current account value of the policyholders' contracts. Interest rates credited
to investment contracts are guaranteed for the initial policy term with
renewal rates determined as necessary by management. At December 31, 2001 and
2000, investment contracts totaled $2,352.3 and $1,766.4, respectively.

Traditional Life Insurance Contracts

   Insurance contracts are broadly defined to include contracts with
significant mortality and/or morbidity risk. The liability for future benefits
of insurance contracts is the present value of such benefits less the present
value of future net premiums based on mortality, morbidity, and other
assumptions which were appropriate at the time the policies were issued or
acquired. These assumptions are periodically evaluated for potential premium
deficiencies. Any changes in the estimated liability are reflected in income
as estimates are revised. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, insurance contracts,
totaled $621.1 and $517.8, respectively.

   Interest rate assumptions used in calculating the present value of future
annuity and contract benefits range from 5.5% to 7.5%.

Universal Life

   Universal Life contracts are broadly defined to include contracts that
provide either death or annuity benefits and have features which may include
various policyholder charges, credited interest, and/or variable premiums. At
December 31, 2001 and 2000, Universal Life contracts totaled $10.2 and $10.4
respectively.

(7) Related-Party Transactions

   The Company receives administrative services from certain affiliates for
which progress payments for these services are made monthly. For the years
ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999, these services were valued at $15.8,
$20.2 and $17.7, respectively.

   During 2001, the Company received a $45 capital contribution from GE
Capital Assurance as reflected in the Statements of Shareholder's Interest.

   During 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with GNA Corporation, an
affiliate, in which GNA Corporation assumed, on a non-recourse basis, certain
tax liabilities. Accordingly, the assumption of such liabilities was recorded
as a non-cash capital contribution.

   Based on an analysis of the Company's tax position, management believes it
is more likely than not that the results of future operations and
implementation of tax planning strategies will generate sufficient taxable
income enabling the Company to realize remaining deferred tax assets.
Accordingly, no valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is deemed
necessary.

   The Company (received) paid $24.0, $(3.9) and $11.2, for federal and state
income taxes in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

(9) Guaranty Association Assessments

   The Company is required by law to participate in the guaranty association
of the State of New York. The state guaranty association ensures payment of
guaranteed benefits, with certain restrictions, to policyholders of impaired
or insolvent insurance companies, by assessing all other companies involved in
similar lines of business. The insolvency of a major insurer that wrote
significant business in New York could have an adverse impact on the
profitability of the Company. The Company made no payments to the New York
State guaranty association in 2001 and 2000, and received a net refund of $0.2
in 1999.

(10) Litigation

   The Company is a defendant in various cases of litigation considered to be
in the normal course of business. The Company believes that the outcome of
such litigation will not have a material effect on its financial position or
results of operations.

(11) Fair Value of Financial Instruments


   Assets and liabilities that are reflected in the Financial Statements at
fair value are not included in the following disclosures; such items include
cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, separate accounts and
beginning in 2001, derivative financial instruments. Other assets and
liabilities--those not carried at fair value--are discussed in the following
pages. Apart from certain marketable securities, few of the instruments
discussed below are actively traded and their fair values must often be
determined using models. Although management has made every effort to develop
the fairest representation of fair value for this section, it would be unusual
if the estimates could actually have been realized at December 31, 2001 or
2000.

   A description of how fair values are estimated follows:

     Mortgage loans. Based on quoted market prices, recent transactions
  and/or discounted future cash flows, using rates at which similar loans
  would have been made to similar borrowers.

     Investment contracts. Based on expected future cash flows, discounted at
  currently offered discount rates for immediate annuity contracts or cash
  surrender values for single premium deferred annuities.

   Information about certain financial instruments that were not carried at
fair value at December 31, 2001 and 2000, is summarized as follows:

(12) Restrictions on Dividends

   State insurance departments that regulate life insurance companies
recognize only statutory accounting practices for determining and reporting
the financial condition and results of operations of an insurance company, for
determining its solvency under law, and for determining whether its financial
condition warrants the payment of a dividend to its shareholders. The maximum
amount of dividends, which can be paid by State of New York insurance
companies to shareholders without prior approval of the Insurance
Commissioner, is subject to certain restrictions. No dividend payout may be
made without prior approval. The Company last paid a dividend to GE Capital
Assurance of $16.5 in 1999.

(13) Supplementary Financial Data

   The Company files financial statements with state insurance regulatory
authorities and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC")
that are prepared on an accounting basis prescribed or permitted by such
authorities (statutory basis). Statutory accounting practices differ from U.S.
GAAP in several respects, causing differences in reported net income and
shareholder's interest. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all
accounting practices not so prescribed but that have been specifically allowed
by the state insurance authority. The Company has no significant permitted
accounting practices. The impact of adoption of codification decreased
statutory capital and surplus by $(2), primarily related to investment
impairments.

   Unaudited statutory net (loss) income for the years ended December 31,
2001, 2000, and 1999 was $(37.9), $(68.2) and $5.1, respectively. Unaudited
statutory capital and surplus was $155.7 as of December 31, 2001 and 2000.

   The NAIC has adopted Risk-Based Capital ("RBC") requirements to evaluate
the adequacy of statutory capital and surplus in relation to risks associated
with: (1) asset risk, (2) insurance risk, (3) interest rate risk, and (4)
business risk. The RBC formula is designated as an early warning tool for the
states to identify possible under-capitalized companies for the purpose of
initiating regulatory action. In the course of operations, the Company
periodically monitors the RBC level. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the
Company exceeded the minimum required RBC levels.

(14) Business Segments

   The Company conducts its operations through two business segments: (1)

                               OTHER INFORMATION

Undertaking To File Reports

   Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic
information, documents, and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or
regulation of the Commission heretofore, or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to
authority conferred in that section.

Rule 484 Undertaking

   Section 722 of the Code of New York, in brief, allow a corporation to
indemnify any person made party to a proceeding because such person is or was
a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, against liability
incurred in the proceeding if: (1) he conducted himself in good faith; and (2)
he believed that (a) in the case of conduct in his official capacity with the
corporation, his conduct was in its best interests; and (b) in all other
cases, his conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's best
interests and (3) in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of a proceeding by
judgment, order, settlement or conviction is not, of itself, determinative
that the director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation did not meet
the standard of conduct described. A corporation may not indemnify a director,
officer, employee, or agent of the corporation in connection with a proceeding
by or in the right of the corporation, in which such person was adjudged
liable to the corporation, or in connection with any other proceeding charging
improper personal benefit to such person, whether or not involving action in
his official capacity, in which such person was adjudged liable on the basis
that personal benefit was improperly received by him. Indemnification
permitted under these sections of the Code of New York in connection with a
proceeding by or in the right of the corporation is limited to reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding.

   Article VIII, Section 1 of the By-Laws of GE Capital Life Assurance Company
of New York further provides that:

   (a) The Corporation may indemnify any person, made, or threatened to be
made, a party to an action or proceeding other than one by or in the right of
the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, whether civil or criminal,
including an action by or in the right of any other Corporation of any type or
kind, domestic or foreign, or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise, which any director or officer of the
Corporation served in any capacity at the request of the Corporation, by
reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate, was a director or
officer of the Corporation, or served such other Corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise in any
capacity, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable
expenses, including fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses,
including attorney's fees actually and necessarily incurred as a result of
such action or proceeding, or any appeal therein, if such director or officer
acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonable believed to be in, or,
in the case of service for any other Corporation or any partnership, joint
venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, not opposed to, the
best interests of the Corporation and, in criminal actions or proceedings, in
addition, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

   (b) The termination of any such civil or criminal action or proceeding by
judgment, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its
equivalent, shall not in itself create a presumption that any such director or
officer did not act, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed
to be in, or, in the case of service for any other Corporation or any
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise,
not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation or that he had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

                                     II-1


   (c) The Corporation may indemnify any person made, or threatened to be
made, a party to an action by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a
judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he, his testator or
intestate, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of any
other Corporation of any type or kind, domestic or foreign, of any
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise,
against amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including
attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred by him in connection with
the defense or settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees,
actually and necessarily incurred by him in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action, or in connection with an appeal therein, if such
director or officer acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably
believed to be in or in the case of service for other Corporation or any
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise,
not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, except that no
indemnification under this paragraph shall be made in respect of (1) a
threatened action or a pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed
of or (2) any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been
adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless and only to the extent that
the court in which the action was brought, or, if no action was brought, any
court of competent jurisdiction, determines upon application that, in view of
all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such portion of the settlement and expenses as the
court deems proper.

   (d) For the purpose of this section, the Corporation shall be deemed to
have requested a person to serve an employee benefit plan where the
performance by such person of his duties to the Corporation also imposes
duties on, or otherwise involves services by, such person to the plan or
participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on a person
with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to applicable law shall be
considered fines; and action taken or omitted by a person with respect to an
employee benefit plan in the performance of such person's duties for a purpose
reasonably believed by such person to be in the interest of the participants
and beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to be for a purpose which is not
opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.

   Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provision, or otherwise
under circumstances where the burden of proof set forth in Section 11(b) of
the Act has not been sustained, 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.

                                     II-2


Representation Pursuant To Section 26(e)(2)(A)

   GE Capital Life hereby represents that the fees and charges deducted under
the Policy, in the aggregate, are reasonable in relation to the services
rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and the risks assumed by GE
Capital Life.
