Item 5. Other Events.
On March 16, 2003, a final decision and award was issued in the previously
disclosed arbitration between Hartford Life Insurance Company (the "Company")
and one of its primary reinsurers relating to policies with death benefit
guarantees written from 1994 to 1999. The arbitration involved alleged breaches
under the reinsurance treaties. Under the terms of the final decision and award,
the reinsurer's reinsurance obligations to the Company were not limited or
reduced in any manner and, as a result, are left unchanged.
