It is similar to a share of a mutual fund. The Policy describes how Accumulation Units are calculated. Annuitant is the person on whose life annuity payments involving life contingencies are based and who receives Policy annuity payments. Annuity Date is the date annuity income payouts are scheduled to begin. This date is identified on the Policy Specifications page of your Policy. You may change this date, as permitted by the Policy and described in this prospectus. Business Day is each day that the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. Cash Surrender Value is the Policy value less applicable Policy fee, and any premium tax charge not previously deducted. Owner, you, your is you -- the person(s) or legal entity who may exercise all rights and privileges under the Policy. If there are joint Owners, the signatures of both Owners are needed to exercise rights under the Policy. Policy Date is the date two Business Days after we receive your application and initial premium. It is the date used to determine the Policy Year/Month/Anniversary dates. Policy Year/Month/Anniversary is measured from respective anniversary dates of the Policy Date of this Policy. Subaccount is a division within the Separate Account for which Accumulation Units are separately maintained. Each Subaccount corresponds to a single underlying non-publicly traded portfolio issued through a series fund. We, Us, Our, Ameritas, ALIC - Ameritas Life Insurance Corp.

NLVA 6150 -3- POLICY OVERVIEW The following is intended as a summary. Please read each section of this prospectus for additional detail. The Ameritas NO-LOAD Variable Annuity is a variable annuity savings vehicle offering a variety of investment options to help meet long-term financial goals. Its costs are discussed in this prospectus' CHARGES and CHARGES EXPLAINED sections. You have a short time period to review your Policy and cancel it. The terms of this "right to examine" period vary by state (see the cover of your Policy). You can allocate your premiums among a wide spectrum of investments and transfer money from one underlying investment portfolio to another without tax liability. In the Separate Account variable investment options, you may gain or lose money on your investment. In the Fixed Account option, we guarantee you will earn a fixed rate of interest. The investment options are described on this prospectus' first page and the INVESTMENT OPTIONS section. The Policy is not designed for use by market-timing organizations or other persons or entities that use programmed or frequent transfers among investment options. More information about our market-timing restrictions is in the INVESTMENT OPTIONS - TRANSFERS and DISTRUPTIVE TRADING PROCEDURES sections. A significant advantage of the Policy is that it provides the ability to accumulate capital on a tax-deferred basis. The purchase of a Policy to fund a tax-qualified retirement account does not provide any additional tax deferred treatment beyond the treatment provided by the tax-qualifiedretirement plan itself. However, the Policy does provide benefits such as lifetime income payments, family protection through death benefits and guaranteed fees. The Policy is a deferred annuity: it has an accumulation (or deferral) period and an annuity income period. Accumulation Period. During the accumulation period, any earnings that you leave in the Policy are not taxed. During this period you can invest additional money into the Policy, transfer amounts among the investment options, and withdraw some or all of the value of your Policy. Some restrictions may apply to transfers (especially to transfers into and out of the Fixed Account). Withdrawals may be subject to income tax and a penalty tax. Annuity Income Period. The accumulation period ends and the annuity income period begins on a date you select (or the later of the fifth Policy Anniversary or the Policy Anniversary nearest the Annuitant's 85th birthday). During the annuity income period, we will make periodic payments to the Annuitant, unless you specify otherwise. You can select payments that are guaranteed to last for the Annuitant's entire life or for some other period. Some or all of each payment will be taxable. A feature of the Policy distinguishing it from non-annuity investments is its ability to guarantee annuity payments to you for as long as the Annuitant lives or for some other period you select. In addition, if you die before those payments begin, the Policy will pay a death benefit to your beneficiary.

TAX-QUALIFIED PLANS The Policy can be used to fund a tax-qualified plan such as IRA, Roth IRA (including rollovers from tax-sheltered annuities), SEP, or SIMPLE IRA, deferred compensation plans, subject to certain limitations. This Prospectus generally addresses the terms that affect a non-tax-qualified annuity. If your Policy funds a tax-qualified plan, read the Tax-Qualified Plan Disclosures in this prospectus' Appendix B to see how they might change your Policy rights and requirements. Contact us if you have questions about the use of the Policy in these or other tax-qualified plans.

NLVA 6150 -6- AIM (1) Except as otherwise noted, figures shown in the table are for the year ended December 31, 2008 and are expressed as a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that actual expenses will be the same as those shown in the table. AIM (2) Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are not fees or expenses incurred by the fund directly but are expenses of the investment companies in which the fund invests. You incur these fees and expenses indirectly through the valuation of the fund's investment in those investment companies. As a result, the Total Expenses after Waivers and Reductions, if any listed above may exceed the expense limit numbers. The impact of the acquired fund fees and expense are included in the total returns of the Fund. AIM (3) The Fund's advisor has contractually agreed, through at least April 30, 2010, to waive the advisory fee payable by the fund in an amount equal to 100% of the net advisory fees Invesco Aim receives from the affiliated money market funds on investments by the Fund of uninvested cash (excluding investments of cash collateral from securities lending) in such affiliated money market funds. Fee Waiver reflects this agreement. AIM (4) The Fund's advisor has contractually agreed, through at least April 30, 2010, to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses of Series I shares to the extent necessary to limit Total Expenses after Waivers and Reductions, if any (excluding certain items discussed below) of Series I shares 1.30% for International Growth and 1.01% for Leisure, of average daily net assets. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the Total Expenses after Waivers and Reductions, if any to exceed the numbers reflected above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, the expense offset arrangements from which the Fund may benefit are in the form of credits that the Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. These credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the Fund. American Century (1) The fund pays the advisor a single, unified management fee for arranging all services necessary for the fund to operate. The fee shown is based on assets during the fund's most recent fiscal year. The fund has a stepped fee schedule. As a result, the fund's unified management fee rate generally decreases as strategy assets increase and increases as strategy assets decrease. The fee shown has been restated to reflect current fees. As a result, The Total Expenses after Waivers and Reductions, if any in this table differ from those shown in the fund's Financial Highlights. For more information about the unified management fee, including an explanation of strategy assets, see the Investment Advisor under the Management section in the fund's prospectus. American Century (2) The fund pays the advisor a single, unified management fee for arranging all services necessary for the fund to operate. For more information about the unified management fee, see the Investment Advisor under the Management section in the fund's prospectus. American Century (3) Other expenses include the fees and expenses of the fund's independent directors and their legal counsel, interest, and, if applicable, acquired fund fees and expenses. Calvert (1) The Investment Advisor (Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc.) has contractually agreed to limit direct net annual portfolio operating expenses through April 30, 2010), as shown below. Under the terms of the contractual expense limitation, operating expenses do not include interest expense, brokerage commissions, taxes and extraordinary expenses. Ameritas Core Strategies 0.95% Social Equity 1.08% Each Portfolio has an expense offset arrangement with the custodian bank whereby the custodian's fees may be paid indirectly by credits on the Portfolio's uninvested cash balances. These credits are used to reduce the Portfolio's expenses. Under those circumstances where the Advisor has provided to the Portfolio a contractual expense limitation, and to the extent any expense offset credits are earned, the Advisor may benefit from the expense offset arrangement and the Advisor's obligation under the contractual limitation may be reduced by the credits earned. The amount of this credit received by the Portfolio, if any, during the most recent fiscal year is reflected in the "Financial Highlights" Section of the Portfolio's prospectus, as the difference between the line items "Expenses Before Offsets" and "Net Expenses." Calvert (2) "Total Portfolio Fees" are based on expenses for the Portfolio's most recent fiscal year. Management fees for the Calvert Variable Series, Inc. Portfolios include both the advisory fee paid by each Portfolio to the Advisor and the administrative fee paid by the Portfolio to Calvert Administrative Services Company, an affiliate of the Advisor. With respect to the amount of the Portfolio's advisory fee, see "Advisory Fees" in the Portfolio's prospectus. The administrative fees (as a percentage of net assets) are as follows: 0.05% for the Ameritas Core Strategies, 0.275% for Social Balanced, 0.20% for Social Equity, and 0.35% for Social International Equity. Calvert (3) "Total Portfolio Fees" reflect an indirect fee and fees before waivers. Indirect fees result from a Portfolio's offset arrangement with the custodian bank whereby the custodian's fees may be paid indirectly by credits on the Portfolio's uninvested cash balances. These credits are used to reduce the Portfolio's expenses. Net operating expenses after reductions for fees paid indirectly and fee waivers would be 0.92%. DWS (1) "Other Fees" includes an administrative services fee paid to the Advisor in the amount of 0.10% of average daily net assets. DWS (2) "Management Fees" restated on an annualized basis to reflect fee changes which took effect May 1, 2008. "Other Fees" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. Actual expenses may be different. "Other Fees" include an administrative services fee paid to the Advisor in the amount of 0.10%. DWS (3) Through September 30, 2009, the Advisor has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fee and reimburse or pay certain operating expenses of the portfolio to the extent necessary to maintain the portfolio's total operating expenses at 1.07%, excluding certain expenses such as extraordinary expenses, taxes, brokerage and interest. Effective October 1, 2009 through April 30, 2010, the Advisor has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fee and reimburse or pay certain operating expenses of the portfolio to the extent necessary to maintain the portfolio's total operating expenses at ratios no higher than 1.25%, excluding certain expenses such as extraordinary expenses, taxes, brokerage and interest. Fidelity (1) A portion of the brokerage commissions that the fund pays may be reimbursed and used to reduce the fund's expenses. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce the fund's custodian expenses. These offsets may be discontinued at any time. Including these reductions, the total Initial Class operating expenses would have been: Contrafund 0.65% Growth 0.67% Mid Cap 0.67% Overseas 0.84% Fidelity (2) Through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce the fund's custodian expenses. These offsets may be discontinued at any time. Including these reductions, the total Initial Class operating expenses would have been: High Income 0.70% Strategic Income 0.72% FTVIPT (1) The Fund's name changed from Templeton Global Income Securities Fund effective as of May 1, 2009. MFS (1) The fund has entered into an expense offset arrangement that reduces the fund's custodian fee based upon the amount of cash maintained by the fund with its custodian. Such fee reduction is not reflected in the table. Had this fee reduction been taken into account, "Total Expenses" would have been lower. MFS (2) MFS has agreed in writing to bear the funds' expenses such that "Total Portfolio Fees", determined without giving effect to the expense offset arrangements described above, do not exceed 1.10% annually. This written agreement excludes interest, taxes, extraordinary expenses, NLVA 6150 -7- brokerage and transaction costs and investment-related expenses and will continue until modified by the fund's Board of Trustees, but such agreement will continue until at least April 30, 2010. PIMCO (1) "Other Fees" reflect interest expense. Interest expense is based on the amounts incurred during the Portfolio's most recent fiscal year as a result of entering into certain investment, such as reverse repurchase agreements. This interest expense is required to be treated as an expense of the Portfolio for accounting purposes, but the amount of the interest expense (if any) will vary with the Portfolio's use of those investments (like reverse repurchase agreements) as an investment strategy. PIMCO (2) The Subsidiary has entered into a separate contract with PIMCO for the Management of the Subsidiary's portfolio pursuant to which the Subsidiary pays PIMCO management fee at the annual rates of 0.69% of its net assets. PIMCO (3) The Total Portfolio Fees do not match the Ratio of Expense to Average Net Assets of the Portfolio, as set forth in the Financial Highlights table of the shareholder report, because the Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets reflects the operating expenses of the Portfolio and does not include Underlying Fund Expenses. PIMCO (4) PIMCO has contractually agreed to waive the management fee and the administration fee it received from the Portfolio in an amount equal to the management fee paid to PIMCO by the Subsidiary as described in the footnote 2 above. This waiver may not be terminated by PIMCO and will remain in effect as long as PIMCO's contract with the Subsidiary is in place. Summit (1) The Investment Advisor (Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc.) has contractually agreed to limit direct net annual portfolio operating expenses through December 12, 2010 to 0.75%. Under the terms of the contractual expense limitation, operating expenses do not include acquired fund fees and expenses, interest expense, brokerage commissions, taxes and extraordinary expenses. The Portfolio has an expense offset arrangement with the custodian bank whereby the custodian's fees may be paid indirectly by credits on the Portfolio's uninvested cash balances. These credits are used to reduce the Portfolio's expenses. Under those circumstances where the Advisor has provided to the Portfolio a contractual expense limitation, and to the extent any expense offset credits are earned, the Advisor may benefit from the expense offset arrangement and the Advisor's obligation under the contractual limitation may be reduced by the credits earned. The amount of this credit received by the Portfolio, if any, during the most recent fiscal year is reflected in the "Financial Highlights" Section of the Portfolio's prospectus, as the difference between the line items "Expenses Before Offsets" and "Net Expenses." Summit (2) "Total Portfolio Fees" are based on projected expenses for the Portfolio's current fiscal year. Management fees for the Summit Mutual Funds, Inc. Portfolios include both the advisory fee paid by each Portfolio to the Advisor and the administrative fee paid by the Portfolio to Calvert Administrative Services Company, an affiliate of the Advisor. With respect to the amount of the Portfolio's advisory fee, see "Advisory Fees" in the Portfolio's prospectus. The administrative fee (as a percentage of net assets) is 0.10%. UIF (1) Reflects rebate of certain Portfolio expenses in connection with the investments in Morgan Stanley Institutional Liquidity Money Market Portfolio - Institutional Class during the period. As a result of such rebate, the expenses as a percentage of its net assets were affected by less 0.005%. * Short cites are used in this chart. The "Investment Options" section uses complete Portfolio names. ** Portfolios pay 12b-1 fees to us pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which allows investment companies to pay fees out of portfolio assets to those who sell and distribute portfolio shares. We provide shareholder support and marketing services for some Subaccount portfolio investment advisers in return for annual compensation of between 0.05% and 0.25% of Subaccount assets. This compensation is reflected in the Portfolio expenses shown above. EXAMPLES OF EXPENSES The Examples below are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Policy with the cost of investing in other variable annuity policies. These costs include Policy owner transaction expenses, contract charges, Separate Account annual expenses, and Subaccount underlying portfolio fees and expenses. The Examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Policy for the time periods indicated. The Examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each year and assume the underlying portfolio and Policy fees and expenses indicated. The example amounts are illustrative only, and should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses. Your actual expenses may be higher or lower than those shown in the chart.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Policy's expenses are the same whether the Policy is surrendered, annuitized, or continues at the end of the time period shown. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- EXAMPLE 1 Yr 3 Yr 5 Yr 10 Yr ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ Maximum with GLWB Rider - $638 $1,888 $3,104 $6,005 joint spousal (1) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maximum with GLWB Rider - $623 $1,848 $3,043 $5,906 single life (1) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maximum Policy Expenses - GLWB $531 $1,589 $2,640 $5,241 Rider Inactive Phase (2) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Minimum Policy Expenses (3) $95 $295 $507 $1,099 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Maximum Policy Expenses. This example assumes maximum charges of 0.80% for Separate Account annual expenses, a $40 guaranteed maximum Policy fee (although our current base Policy fee is $25 and is waived if Policy value is at least $50,000 on a Policy Anniversary), the guaranteed maximum fee for the Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit (0.95% for single life; 1.10% for joint spousal), plus the maximum fees and expenses before any waivers or reductions of any of the portfolio companies (4.12%). (2) Maximum Policy Expenses - GLWB Rider Inactive Phase. This example assumes maximum charges of 0.80% for Separate Account annual expenses, a $40 guaranteed maxium Policy fee (although our current base Policy fee is $25 and is waived if Policy value is at least $50,000 on a Policy Anniversary), plus the maximum fees and expenses before any waivers or reductions of any of the portfolio companies (4.12%). (3) Minimum Policy Expenses. This example assumes current charges of 0.55% for Separate Account annual expenses, a $25 current Policy fee that is waived if Policy value is at least $50,000 on a Policy Anniversary, plus the minimum fees and expenses after any waivers or reductions of any of the portfolio companies (0.14%). NLVA 6150 -8- FINANCIAL INFORMATION ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES We provide Accumulation Unit value history for each of the Separate Account variable investment options in Appendix A. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Financial statements of the Subaccounts of the Separate Account and our company are included in the Statement of Additional Information; to learn how to get a copy, see the front or back page of this prospectus. CHARGES EXPLAINED The following adds to information provided in the CHARGES section. Please review both prospectus sections for information on charges. The Policy has no sales load and no withdrawal charges. MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE We impose a daily fee to compensate us for the mortality and expense risks we have under the Policy. This fee is reflected in the Accumulation Unit values for each Subaccount. Our mortality risk arises from our obligation to make annuity payments and to pay death benefits prior to the Annuity Date. The mortality risk we assume is that Annuitants will live longer than we project, so our cost in making annuity payments will be higher than projected. However, an Annuitant's own longevity, or improvement in general life expectancy, will not affect the periodic annuity payments we pay under your Policy. Another mortality risk we assume is that at your death the death benefit we pay will be greater than the Policy value. Our expense risk is that our costs to administer your Policy will exceed the amount we collect through administrative charges. If the mortality and expense risk charge does not cover our costs, we bear the loss, not you. If the charge exceeds our costs, the excess is our profit. ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES Annual Policy Fee We reserve the right to charge an annual Policy fee. We reserve the right to waive an annual Policy fee if, on a Policy Anniversary, the Policy value is at least a certain amount which we declare annually. Any Policy fee is deducted from your Policy value on the last Business Day of each Policy Year and upon a complete surrender. This fee is levied by canceling Accumulation Units and making a deduction from the Fixed Account. It is deducted from each Subaccount and the Fixed Account in the same proportion that the value in each Subaccount and the Fixed Account bears to the total Policy value. TRANSFER FEE The first 15 transfers per Policy Year from Subaccounts or the Fixed Account are free. A transfer fee may be imposed for any transfer in excess of 15 per Policy Year. The transfer fee is deducted pro rata from each Subaccount (and, if applicable, the Fixed Account) in which the Owner is invested. TAX CHARGES Some states and municipalities levy a tax on annuities, currently ranging from 0% to 3.5% of your premiums. These tax rates, and the timing of the tax, vary and may change. Presently, we deduct the charge for the tax in those states with a tax either (a) from premiums as they are received, or (b) upon applying proceeds to an annuity income option. No charges are currently made for taxes other than premium taxes. We reserve the right to levy charges in the future for taxes or other costs resulting from taxes that we determine are properly attributable to the Separate Account. GUARANTEED LIFETIME WITHDRAWAL BENEFIT ("GLWB") CHARGE The guaranteed maximum and current annual charges for the GLWB rider are listed in the CHARGES section of this prospectus. Each fee is stated as a percentage that is multiplied by the Policy value. The current NLVA 6150 -9- charge (0.95% annually for Single Life or 1.10% annually for Joint Spousal) will be deducted from the Policy value on each Monthly Anniversary beginning with the Rider Activation Date. Current rates are effective for GLWB Riders activated on or after May 1, 2009. Rates for GLWB Riders activated prior to May 1, 2009 currently remain at a charge of 0.60% for Single Life and 0.75% for Joint Spousal, which is subject to change as described below. If you activate this rider, the charges for the Policy and for the rider will be deducted on a pro-rata basis from all subaccounts in the asset allocation model you select. The rider charge is subject to change upon Rider Activation Date, rider anniversary, or upon reset as described in the Reset Feature section below. The rider charge will not exceed the guaranteed maximum fee for the rider listed in the CHARGES section. The rider charge will not be deducted while the rider is inactive, after the Policy value reduces to zero, or if the rider is terminated. FEES CHARGED BY THE PORTFOLIOS Each Subaccount's underlying portfolio has investment advisory fees and expenses. They are set forth in this prospectus' CHARGES section and described in more detail in each fund's prospectus. A portfolio's fees and expenses are not deducted from your Policy value. Instead, they are reflected in the daily value of portfolio shares which, in turn, will affect the daily Accumulation Unit value of the Subaccounts. These fees and expenses help to pay the portfolio's investment advisory and operating expenses. WAIVER OF CERTAIN CHARGES When the Policy is sold in a manner that results in savings of sales or administrative expenses, we reserve the right to waive all or part of any fee we charge under the Policy (excluding fees charged by the portfolios). Factors we consider include one or more of the following: size and type of group to whom the Policy is issued; amount of expected premiums; relationship with us (employee of us or an affiliated company, receiving distributions or making transfers from other policies we or one of our affiliates issue or transferring amounts held under qualified retirement plans we or one of our affiliates sponsor); type and frequency of administrative and sales services provided; or level of annual maintenance fee. Any fee waiver will not be discriminatory and will be done according to our rules in effect at the time the Policy is issued. We reserve the right to change these rules. The right to waive any charges may be subject to state approval. INVESTMENT OPTIONS The Policy allows you to choose from a wide array of investment options - each chosen for its potential to meet specific investment objectives. You may allocate your premiums among the Separate Account variable investment options and the Fixed Account fixed interest rate option. Allocations must be in whole percentages and total 100%. The allocation of any premium to the Fixed Account may not exceed 25% of that premium without our prior consent. If our prior consent is not received, we reserve the right to reallocate any excess Fixed Account allocation to the Money Market Subaccount. The variable investment options, which invest in underlying portfolios, are listed and described below. The value of your Policy will go up or down based on the investment performance of the variable investment options you choose. Please consider carefully, and on a continuing basis, which investment options best suit your long-term investment objectives and risk tolerance. SEPARATE ACCOUNT VARIABLE INVESTMENT OPTIONS The Separate Account provides you with variable investment options in the form of underlying portfolio investments. Each underlying portfolio is an open-end investment management company. When you allocate investments to an underlying portfolio, those investments are placed in a Subaccount of the Separate Account corresponding to that portfolio, and the Subaccount in turn invests in the portfolio. The Policy value of your Policy depends directly on the investment performance of the portfolios that you select. NLVA 6150 -10- The Separate Account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust. However, the SEC does not supervise the management or the investment practices or policies of the Separate Account or Ameritas. The Separate Account was established as a separate investment account of Ameritas under Nebraska law on October 26, 1995. Under Nebraska law, we own the Separate Account assets, but they are held separately from our other assets and are not charged with any liability or credited with any gain of business unrelated to the Separate Account. Any and all distributions made by the underlying portfolios, with respect to the shares held by the Separate Account, will be reinvested in additional shares at net asset value. We are responsible to you for meeting the obligations of the Policy, but we do not guarantee the investment performance of any of the variable investment options' underlying portfolios. We do not make any representations about their future performance. The underlying portfolios in the Separate Account are NOT publicly traded mutual funds, and are NOT the same as other publicly traded mutual funds with very similar names. They are only available as separate account investment options in life insurance or variable annuity policies issued by insurance companies, or through participation in certain qualified pension or retirement plans. Even if the investment options and policies of some underlying portfolios available under the Policy may be very similar to the investment objectives and policies of publicly traded mutual funds that may be managed by the same investment adviser, the investment performance and results of the portfolios available under the Policy may vary significantly from the investment results of such other publicly traded mutual funds. You should read the prospectuses for the underlying portfolios together with this prospectus for more information. You bear the risk that the variable investment options you select may fail to meet their objectives, that they could go down in value, and that you could lose principal. Each Subaccount's underlying portfolio operates as a separate investment fund, and the income or losses of one generally has no effect on the investment performance of any other. Complete descriptions of each variable investment option's investment objectives and restrictions and other material information related to an investment in the variable investment option are contained in the prospectuses for each of the underlying portfolios which accompany this prospectus. The Separate Account Subaccount underlying portfolios listed below are designed primarily as investments for variable annuity and variable life insurance policies issued by insurance companies. They are not publicly traded mutual funds available for direct purchase by you. There is no assurance the investment objectives will be met. This information is just a summary for each underlying portfolio. You should read the series fund prospectus for an underlying portfolio accompanying this prospectus for more information about that portfolio, including detailed information about the portfolio's fees and expenses, investment strategy and investment objective, restrictions, and potential risks such as those related to mixed and shared funding for portfolios that are also offered through variable life insurance policies and qualified pension and retirement plans. To get a copy of any portfolio prospectus, contact your representative or us as shown on the Table of Contents page or the last page of this prospectus.

* These funds and their investment advisers are a part of the UNIFI Mutual Holding Company, the ultimate parent of Ameritas. Also, Calvert Distributors, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of UNIFI, is the underwriter for these funds. o Adding, Deleting, or Substituting Variable Investment Options We do not control the Subaccounts' underlying portfolios, so we cannot guarantee that any of the portfolios will always be available. We retain the right to change the investments of the Separate Account, and to eliminate the shares of any Subaccount's underlying portfolio and substitute shares of another series fund portfolio, if the shares of the underlying portfolio are no longer available for investment or if, in our judgment, investment in the portfolio would be inappropriate in view of the purposes of the Separate Account. We may add new Separate Account underlying portfolios, or eliminate existing underlying portfolios, when, in our sole discretion, conditions warrant a change. In all of these situations, we will receive any necessary SEC and state approval before making any such change. Our Separate Account may be (i) operated as an investment management company or any other form permitted by law, (ii) deregistered with the SEC if registration is no longer required, or (iii) combined with one or more other separate accounts. To the extent permitted by law, we also may transfer assets of the Separate Account to other accounts. Where permitted by applicable law, we reserve the right to remove, combine or add Subaccounts. Subaccounts may be closed to new or subsequent premium payments, transfers or premium allocations. We will receive any necessary SEC and state approval before making any of these changes. We will notify you of any changes to the variable investment options. FIXED ACCOUNT FIXED INTEREST RATE OPTION There is one fixed interest rate option ("Fixed Account"), where we bear the investment risk. We guarantee that you will earn a minimum interest rate that will yield at least 1% per year, compounded annually. We may declare a higher current interest rate. However, you bear the risk that we will not credit more interest than will yield the minimum guaranteed rate per year for the life of the Policy. We have sole discretion over how assets allocated to the Fixed Account are invested, and we bear the risk that those assets will perform better or worse than the amount of interest we have declared. Assets in the Fixed Account are subject to claims by creditors of the company. The focus of this prospectus is to disclose the Separate Account aspects of the Policy. All amounts allocated to the Fixed Account become assets of our general account. Interest in the general account has not been registered with the SEC and is not subject to SEC regulation, nor is the general account registered as an investment company with the SEC. Therefore, SEC staff have not reviewed the Fixed Account disclosures in this prospectus. NLVA 6150 -13- TRANSFERS Prior to the Annuity Date, you may transfer Policy value from one Subaccount to another, from the Separate Account to the Fixed Account, or from the Fixed Account to any Subaccount, subject to these rules: Transfer Rules: o A transfer is considered any single request to move assets from one or more Subaccounts or the Fixed Account to one or more of the other Subaccounts or the Fixed Account. o We must receive notice of the transfer by either Written Notice, an authorized telephone transaction, or by Internet when available. Transfer requests by facsimile, telephone, or Internet must be sent to us by 3:00 p.m. Central Time (2:30 p.m. for Rydex) for same day processing. Requests received later are processed on the next trading day. Fax requests must be sent to our trade desk at 402-467-7923. If requests are faxed elsewhere, we will process them as of the day they are received by our trading unit. o The transferred amount must be at least $250, or the entire Subaccount or Fixed Account value if it is less. (If the value remaining after a transfer will be less than $250 in a Subaccount or $100 in the Fixed Account, we will include that amount as part of the transfer.) - If the Dollar Cost Averaging systematic transfer program is used, then the minimum transfer amount out of a Subaccount or the Fixed Account is the lesser of $250 or the balance in the Subaccount or Fixed Account. Under this program, the maximum amount that may be transferred from the Fixed Account each month is 1/36th of the value of the Fixed Account at the time the Dollar Cost Averaging program is established. While a Dollar Cost Averaging program is in effect, elective transfers out of the Fixed Account are prohibited. - The Portfolio Rebalancing and Earnings Sweep systematic transfer programs have no minimum transfer limits. o The first 15 transfers each Policy Year are free. Thereafter, transfers may result in a $10 charge for each transfer. This fee is deducted on a pro-rata basis from balances in all Subaccounts and the Fixed Account; it is not subtracted from the amount of the transfer. Transfers under any systematic transfer program do count toward the 15 free transfer limit. o A transfer from the Fixed Account (except made pursuant to a systematic transfer program or our asset allocation program): - may be made only once each Policy Year; - may be delayed up to six months; - is limited during any Policy Year to the greater of: - 25% of the Fixed Account value on the date of the initial transfer during that year; - the greatest amount of any similar transfer out of the Fixed Account during the previous 13 months; or - $1,000. o A transfer into the Fixed Account (except made pursuant to a systematic transfer program or our asset allocation program) may not exceed 10% of the Policy value of all Subaccounts as of the most recent Policy Anniversary, unless the remaining value in any single Subaccount would be less than $1,000 in which case you may elect to transfer the entire value in that Subaccount to the Fixed Account. o If the Policy value in any Subaccount falls below $250, we may transfer the remaining balance, without charge, to the Vanguard VIF Money Market Subaccount. o Rydex Subaccount transfers received later than 2:30 p.m. Central Time are processed the next Business Day. o We reserve the right to limit transfers, or to modify transfer privileges, and we reserve the right to change the transfer rules at any time, subject to Policy restrictions. o In the event you authorize telephone or Internet transfers, we are not liable for telephone or Internet instructions that we in good faith believe you authorized. We will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions are genuine. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES Where permitted and subject to our rules, we may accept your authorization to have a third party exercise transfers or investment allocations on your behalf. Third-party transfers and allocations are subject to the same rules as all other transfers and allocations. You can make this election by sending us Written Notice. Please note that any person or entity you authorize to make transfers or allocations on your behalf, including any investment advisory, asset allocation, money management or timing service, does so independently from any agency relationship they may have with us for the sale of the Policies. They are accountable to you alone for such transfers or allocations. We are not responsible for such transfers or allocations on your behalf, or recommendations to you, by such third-party services. You should be aware that fees charged by such third parties for their service are separate from and in addition to fees paid under the Policy. NLVA 6150 -14- DISRUPTIVE TRADING PROCEDURES Organizations or individuals that use market timing investment strategies and make frequent or other disruptive transfers should not purchase the Policy, unless such transfers are limited to Subaccounts whose underlying portfolio prospectus specifically permits such transfers. The Policy is not designed to serve as a vehicle for frequent trading in response to short-term fluctuations in the market (except in Subaccounts whose underlying portfolio prospectus specifically permits such trading). Such frequent trading, programmed transfers, or transfers that are large in relation to the total assets of a Subaccount's underlying portfolio can disrupt management of a Subaccount's underlying portfolio and raise expenses. This in turn can hurt performance of an affected Subaccount and therefore hurt your Policy's performance. Policy owners should be aware that we are contractually obligated to provide Policy owner transaction data relating to trading activities to the underlying funds on written request and, on receipt of written instructions from a fund, to restrict or prohibit further purchases or transfers by Policy owners identified by an underlying fund as having engaged in transactions that violate the trading policies of the fund. We reserve the right to reject or restrict, in our sole discretion, transfers initiated by a market timing organization or individual or other party authorized to give transfer instructions. We further reserve the right to impose restrictions on transfers that we determine, in our sole discretion, will disadvantage or potentially hurt the rights or interests of other Policy owners. Restrictions may include changing, suspending or terminating telephone, on-line and facsimile transfer privileges. We will also enforce any Subaccount underlying portfolio manager's own restrictions imposed upon transfers considered by the manager to be disruptive. Our disruptive trading procedures may vary from Subaccount to Subaccount, and may also vary due to differences in operational systems and contract provisions. Any Subaccount restrictions will be uniformly applied. There is no assurance that the measures we take will be effective in preventing market timing or other excessive transfer activity. Our ability to detect and deter disruptive trading and to consistently apply our disruptive trading procedures may be limited by operational systems and technological limitations. The discretionary nature of our disruptive trading procedures may result in some Policy owners being able to market time, while other Policy owners bear the harm associated with timing. Also, because other insurance companies and retirement plans may invest in Subaccount underlying portfolios, we cannot guarantee that Subaccount underlying portfolios will not suffer harm from disruptive trading within contracts issued by them. Certain Subaccount underlying portfolios, such as the Rydex Subaccounts, may permit short-term trading and will have disclosed this practice in their portfolios' prospectuses. Excessive Transfers We reserve the right to restrict transfers if we determine you are engaging in a pattern of transfers that may disadvantage Policy Owners. In making this determination, we will consider, among other things: o the total dollar amount being transferred; o the number of transfers you make over a period of time; o whether your transfers follow a pattern designed to take advantage of short term market fluctuations, particularly within certain Subaccount underlying portfolios; o whether your transfers are part of a group of transfers made by a third party on behalf of individual Policy Owners in the group; and o the investment objectives and/or size of the Subaccount underlying portfolio. Third Party Traders We reserve the right to restrict transfers by any firm or any other third party authorized to initiate transfers on behalf of multiple Policy Owners if we determine such third party trader is engaging in a pattern of transfers that may disadvantage Policy Owners. In making this determination, we may, among other things: o reject the transfer instructions of any agent acting under a power of attorney on behalf of more than one Policy Owner, or o reject the transfer or exchange instructions of individual Policy Owners who have executed transfer forms which are submitted by market timing firms or other third parties on behalf of more than one Policy Owner. We will notify affected Policy Owners before we limit transfers, modify transfer procedures or refuse to complete a transfer. Transfers made pursuant to participation in a dollar cost averaging, portfolio rebalancing, earnings sweep or asset allocation program are not subject to these disruptive trading procedures. See the sections of the Prospectus describing those programs for the rules of each program. NLVA 6150 -15- SYSTEMATIC TRANSFER PROGRAMS We offer several systematic transfer programs. We reserve the right to alter or terminate these programs upon thirty days written notice. o Dollar Cost Averaging The Dollar Cost Averaging program allows you to automatically transfer, on a periodic basis, a set dollar amount or percentage from the Vanguard VIF Money Market Subaccount or the Fixed Account to any other Subaccount(s) or the Fixed Account. Requested percentages are converted to a dollar amount. You can begin Dollar Cost Averaging when you purchase the Policy or later. You can increase or decrease the amount or percentage of transfers or discontinue the program at any time. Dollar Cost Averaging is intended to limit loss by resulting in the purchase of more Accumulation Units when a portfolio's value is low, and fewer units when its value is high. However, there is no guarantee that such a program will result in a higher Policy value, protect against a loss, or otherwise achieve your investment goals. Dollar Cost Averaging Program Rules: o There is no additional charge for the Dollar Cost Averaging program. o We must receive notice of your election and any changed instruction - either by Written Notice, by telephone transaction instruction, or by Internet when available. o Automatic transfers can only occur monthly. o The minimum transfer amount out of the Vanguard VIF Money Market Subaccount or the Fixed Account is the lesser of $250 or the balance in the Subaccount or Fixed Account. Under this program, the maximum amount that may be transferred from the Fixed Account each month is 1/36th of the Fixed Account value at the time Dollar Cost Averaging is established. While a Dollar Cost Averaging program is in effect, elective transfers out of the Fixed Account are prohibited. There is no maximum transfer amount limitation applicable to any of the Subaccounts. o You may specify that transfers be made on the 1st through the 28th day of the month. Transfers will be made on the date you specify (or if that is not a Business Day, then on the next Business Day). If you do not select a date, the program will begin on the next Policy Month date. o You can limit the number of transfers to be made, in which case the program will end when that number has been made. Otherwise, the program will terminate when the amount remaining in the Vanguard VIF Money Market Subaccount or the Fixed Account is less than $100. o Dollar Cost Averaging is not available when the Portfolio Rebalancing program is elected. o Portfolio Rebalancing The Portfolio Rebalancing program allows you to rebalance your Policy value among designated Subaccounts only as you instruct. You may change your rebalancing allocation instructions at any time. Any change will be effective when the next rebalancing occurs. Portfolio Rebalancing Program Rules: o There is no additional charge for the Portfolio Rebalancing program. o The Fixed Account is excluded from this program. o You must request the rebalancing program, give us your rebalancing instructions, or request to end this program either by Written Notice, by telephone transaction instruction, or by Internet when available. o You may have rebalancing occur quarterly, semi-annually or annually. o Earnings Sweep The Earnings Sweep program allows you to sweep earnings from your Subaccounts to be rebalanced among designated investment options (Subaccounts or the Fixed Account), either based on your original Policy allocation of premiums or pursuant to new allocation instructions. You may change your Earnings Sweep program instructions at any time. Any change will be effective when the next sweep occurs. Earnings Sweep Program Rules: o There is no additional charge for the Earnings Sweep program. o The Fixed Account is included in this program. o You must request the Earnings Sweep program, give us your allocation instructions, or request to end this program either by Written Notice, by telephone transaction instruction, or by Internet when available. o You may have your earnings sweep quarterly, semi-annually or annually. NLVA 6150 -16- MODEL ASSET ALLOCATION PROGRAM We may offer a model asset allocation program. However, you always have the ability to construct your own asset allocation plan from among the investment options available in your Policy. Model asset allocation programs are intended to match model risk tolerance and investment objectives with the investment options available in your Policy. To assist you in your selection of an asset allocation model, our Model Asset Allocation program uses the Morningstar Asset Allocator. This tool was developed by Morningstar Associates, LLC ("Morningstar") and is offered to you through a license agreement between Morningstar and our affiliate Ameritas Investment Corp. ("AIC"). The Model Asset Allocation program consists of five models, ranging from aggressive to conservative. Morningstar provides AIC with ongoing recommendations and monitoring of the portfolios that comprise the models. To participate in the asset allocation program: o AIC will serve as your investment adviser fiduciary for the program solely for purposes of development of the models and periodic updates to the models. You must give AIC your written consent and discretionary authority for AIC to give us instructions to allocate your premiums (or, for an existing Policy, Policy value) pursuant to the allocations of the model you select. AIC will also periodically instruct us to change your allocations consistent with any changes to the model made by AIC as recommended by Morningstar. AIC has no discretionary authority to execute any other transfers for your Policy. o You must complete the Morningstar Asset Allocator Questionnaire. o You must allocate all of your Policy value to one asset allocation model. We must receive notice of your asset allocation model election either by Written Notice or Internet (when available) before we can begin a program for you. Only you can select which model is best for you. The Asset Allocator Questionnaire can be an aid, but neither it nor AIC will make this decision for you. You may wish to consult with your own financial professional to determine whether participation in the program is best for you, and if so, which model is most suitable. o Each quarter we will automatically rebalance the Subaccount values to be consistent with the allocation percentages for the program model that you elected. Such rebalancing will be disclosed in quarterly statements to you. Performance of each model is updated daily on our website and is available upon request. o Annually, AIC will re-evaluate and may make changes to each investment level model based upon Morningstar's recommendations. When AIC updates the models, we will send you written notice of the updated models at least 30 days in advance of the date the updated models are to be effective. If you wish to accept the changes in your selected model, you will not need to take any action, as your Policy value and any subsequent premium will be automatically reallocated pursuant to the updated model. If you do not wish to accept the changes to your selected model, you can change to a different model or withdraw from the Model Asset Allocation program. o If you are currently participating in a Model Asset Allocation model and you make changes to your allocations outside the model, you will not receive future notifications of model changes. You will then be considered as having withdrawn from the Model Asset Allocation program and as having cancelled your relationship with AIC for purposes of implementing the program with your Policy. For this reason, you will not be able to execute trades online if you participate in the Model Asset Allocation program. You will be required to talk to a Service Center representative if you are in the program, but wish to make a transfer or trade. The Service Center representative will explain to you, prior to executing any telephone transaction, that your election to execute a trade will result in the discontinuance of the Model Asset Allocation program. Additional safeguards will apply if your Policy has the GLWB rider (See the GLWB Rider section, Asset Allocation.). o If participation in the asset allocation program terminates, including by death of the Owner, Policy value will not be reallocated automatically if the model is changed, and thus will not reflect the adviser's most current allocation recommendations. Any additional premiums received will be returned. o AIC is compensated by us as principal underwriter for the Policies. We and AIC may receive fees for administrative services from portfolios in the models. This additional compensation and related responsibilities may create conflicts of interest as AIC determines what portfolios should be in the models. Also, Calvert Variable Series, Inc. and Summit Mutual Funds, Inc., which are part of the UNIFI Mutual Holding Company and therefore are affiliated with us, have portfolios offered through the Policy (these portfolios may or may not be included in the models). We believe any potential risk of a conflict of interest in these arrangements may be reduced by contracting with Morningstar to independently evaluate and recommend the selection, allocation weighting, and periodic updates regarding portfolios in the models. NLVA 6150 -17- The GLWB rider requires that, beginning on the rider activation date, you may participate only in certain asset allocation models. The models currently available for use with the GLWB rider are: Capital Growth, Moderate, Balanced, and Conservative; for more information on these models, see your variable annuity application. The GLWB rider will terminate if you withdraw from a designated model or allocate any portion of your subsequent premium payments to an investment option that is not consistent with the requirements of the rider. There is no additional charge for selecting the Model Asset Allocation program. Although asset allocation programs are intended to mitigate investment risk, there is a risk that investing pursuant to a model will still lose value. For information about risks of participating in the Model Asset Allocation program and more detail about the program, including more information about conflicts of interest, ask for a copy of this prospectus' Statement of Additional Information. More information about AIC's role as investment advisor for the program is available on AIC's Form ADV Part II which is delivered to you at the time you subscribe to the program. We may modify or discontinue the Model Asset Allocation program at any time. IMPORTANT POLICY PROVISIONS Many key rights and benefits under the Policy are summarized in this prospectus; however, you must refer to the Policy itself for the actual terms of the Policy. You may obtain a copy of the Policy from us. The Policy remains in force until surrendered for its Cash Surrender Value, or until all proceeds have been paid under an annuity income option or as a death benefit. POLICY APPLICATION AND ISSUANCE To purchase a Policy, you must submit an application and a minimum initial premium. A Policy usually will be issued only if you and the Annuitant are age 0 through 85, rounded to the nearest birthday. We reserve the right to reject any application or premium for any reason. Replacing an existing annuity policy is not always your best choice. Evaluate any replacement carefully. If your application is in good order upon receipt, we will credit your initial premium (less premium tax, if applicable) to the Policy value in accordance with your allocation instructions within two Business Days after the later of the date we receive your application or the date we receive your premium. If the application is incomplete or otherwise not in good order, we will contact you within five Business Days to explain the delay; at that time we will refund your initial premium unless you consent to our retaining it to apply it to your Policy once all Policy issuance requirements are met. The Policy Date is the date two Business Days after we receive your application and initial premium. It is the date used to determine Policy Anniversaries and Policy Years. No Policy will be dated on or after the 29th day of a month. (This does not affect how premium is credited; see the paragraph above.) o Application in Good Order All application questions must be answered, but particularly note these requirements: o The Owner's and the Annuitant's full name, Social Security number, and date of birth must be included. o Your premium allocations must be completed in whole percentages, and total 100%. o Initial premium must meet minimum premium requirements. o Your signature must be on the application. o Identify the type of plan, whether it is non-qualified or, if it is qualified, state the type of qualified plan. o City, state and date application was signed must be completed. o If you have one, please give us your e-mail address to facilitate receiving updated Policy information by electronic delivery. o There may be forms in addition to the application required by law or regulation, especially when a qualified plan or replacement is involved. o Premium Requirements Your premium checks should be made payable to "Ameritas Life Insurance Corp." We may postpone crediting any payment made by check to your Policy value until the check has been honored by your bank. Payment by certified check, banker's draft, or cashier's check will be promptly applied. Under our electronic fund transfer program, you may select a monthly payment schedule for us to automatically deduct premiums from your bank NLVA 6150 -18- account or other sources. Total premiums for all annuities held with us for the same Annuitant or Owner may not exceed $1 million without our consent. Initial Premium o The only premium required. All others are optional. o Must be at least $2,000. We have the right to change these premium requirements, and to accept a smaller initial premium if payments are established as part of a regularly billed program (electronic funds transfer, payroll deduction, etc.) or as part of a tax-qualified plan. Additional Premiums o Must be at least $250; $50 if payments are established as part of a regularly billed program (electronic funds transfer, payroll deduction, etc.) or a tax-qualified plan. We have the right to change these premium requirements. o Will not be accepted, without our approval, on or after the earlier of (i) the Policy Anniversary nearest your 85th birthday or (ii) the Annuity Date. o Allocating Your Premiums You may allocate your premiums among the variable investment options and the Fixed Account fixed interest rate option. Initial allocations in your Policy application will be used for additional premiums until you change your allocation. o Allocations must be in whole percentages, and total 100%. o You may change your allocation by sending us Written Notice or through an authorized telephone transaction. The change will apply to premiums received on or after the date we receive your Written Notice or authorized telephone transaction. o All premiums will be allocated pursuant to your instructions on record with us. o The allocation of any premium to the Fixed Account may not exceed 25% without our prior consent. If our prior consent is not received, we reserve the right to reallocate any excess Fixed Account allocation to the Money Market Subaccount. o "Right to Examine" Period Allocations If you are not satisfied with the Policy, you may void it by returning it to us within 10 days of receipt, or longer where required by state law. You will then receive a full refund of your Policy value; however, where required by certain states, or if your Policy was issued as an Individual Retirement Account ("IRA"), you will receive either the premium paid or your Policy value, whichever amount is greater. YOUR POLICY VALUE On your Policy's date of issue, the Policy value equals the initial premium less any charge for applicable premium taxes. On any Business Day thereafter, the Policy value equals the sum of the values in the Separate Account variable investment options and the Fixed Account. The Policy value is expected to change from day to day, reflecting the expenses and investment experience of the selected variable investment options (and interest earned in the Fixed Account options) as well as the deductions for charges under the Policy. o Separate Account Value Premiums or transfers allocated to Subaccounts are accounted for in Accumulation Units. The Policy value held in the Separate Account Subaccounts on any Business Day is determined by multiplying each Subaccount's Accumulation Unit value by the number of Subaccount units allocated to the Policy. Each Subaccount's Accumulation Unit value is calculated at the end of each Business Day as follows: (a) the per share net asset value of the Subaccount's underlying portfolio as of the end of the current Business Day plus any dividend or capital gain distribution declared and unpaid by the underlying portfolio during that Business Day, times the number of shares held by the Subaccount, before the purchase or redemption of any shares on that date; minus (b) the daily mortality and expense risk charge; and this result divided by (c) the total number of Accumulation Units held in the Subaccount on the Business Day before the purchase or redemption of any Accumulation Units on that day. When transactions are made to or from a Subaccount, the actual dollar amounts are converted to Accumulation Units. The number of Accumulation Units for a transaction is equal to the dollar amount of the transaction divided by the Accumulation Unit value on the Business Day the transaction is made. An investment in money market funds is neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government. There can be no assurance that the funds will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share. Notwithstanding the preceeding statements, Owners will be guaranteed to receive a $1.00 net asset value for amounts NLVA 6150 -19- they had invested in the money market account as of September 19, 2008, subject to the terms of the U.S. Treasury's Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the "Program"). The Program is currently set to expire on September 18, 2009. o Fixed Account Value The Policy value of the Fixed Account on any Business Day equals: (a) the Policy value of the Fixed Account at the end of the preceding Policy Month; plus (b) any premiums credited since the end of the previous Policy Month; plus (c) any transfers from the Subaccounts credited to the Fixed Account since the end of the previous Policy Month; minus (d) any transfers and transfer fee from the Fixed Account to the Subaccounts since the end of the previous Policy Month; minus (e) any partial withdrawal taken from the Fixed Account since the end of the previous Policy Month; minus (f) the Fixed Account's share of the annual Policy fee on the Policy Anniversary; plus (g) interest credited on the Fixed Account balance. TELEPHONE TRANSACTIONS Telephone Transactions Permitted o Transfers among investment options. o Establish systematic transfer programs. o Change of premium allocations. How to Authorize Telephone Transactions o Upon your authorization on the Policy application or in Written Notice to us, you or a third person named by you may do telephone transactions on your behalf. You bear the risk of the accuracy of any designated person's instructions to us. Telephone Transaction Rules: o Must be received by close of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (usually 3 p.m. Central Time), except Rydex Subaccount transactions must be received by 2:30 p.m. Central Time; if later, the transaction will be processed the next day the NYSE is open. o Calls will be recorded for your protection. o For security, you or your authorized designee must provide your Social Security number and/or other identification information. o May be discontinued at any time as to some or all Owners. We are not liable for following telephone transaction instructions we reasonably believe to be genuine. DELAY OF PAYMENTS We will usually pay any amounts requested as a full surrender or partial withdrawal from the Separate Account within 7 days after we receive your Written Notice. We can postpone such payments or any transfers out of a Subaccount if: (i) the NYSE is closed for other than customary weekend and holiday closings; (ii) trading on the NYSE is restricted; (iii) an emergency exists as determined by the SEC, as a result of which it is not reasonably practical to dispose of securities, or not reasonably practical to determine the value of the net assets of the Separate Account; or (iv) the SEC permits delay for the protection of security holders. The applicable rules of the SEC will govern as to whether the conditions in (iii) or (iv) exist. We may defer payments of full surrenders or partial withdrawals or a transfer from the Fixed Account for up to 6 months from the date we receive your Written Notice, after we request and receive approval from the insurance commissioner of the state where the Policy is delivered. BENEFICIARY You may change your beneficiary by sending Written Notice to us, unless the named beneficiary is irrevocable. Once we record and acknowledge the change, it is effective as of the date you signed the Written Notice. The change will not apply to any payments made or other action taken by us before recording. If the named beneficiary is irrevocable you may change the named beneficiary only by Written Notice signed by both you and the beneficiary. If more than one named beneficiary is designated, and you fail to specify their interest, they will share equally. If there are joint Owners, the surviving joint Owner will be deemed the beneficiary, and the beneficiary named in the Policy application or subsequently changed will be deemed the contingent beneficiary. If both joint Owners die simultaneously, the death benefit will be paid to the contingent beneficiary. If the beneficiary is your surviving spouse, the spouse may elect either to receive the death benefit, in which case the Policy will terminate, or to continue the Policy in force with the spouse as Owner. The surviving spouse may not continue the Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit rider when the single life option was selected and the Policy was issued under an Internal Revenue Code Section 401 qualified plan. NLVA 6150 -20- If the named beneficiary dies before you, then your estate is the beneficiary until you name a new beneficiary. MINOR OWNER OR BENEFICIARY A minor may not own the Policy solely in the minor's name and cannot receive payments directly as a Policy beneficiary. Contrary to common belief, in most states parental status does not automatically give parents the power to provide an adequate release to us to make beneficiary payments to the parent for the minor's benefit. A minor can "own" a Policy through the trustee of a trust established for the minor's benefit, or through the minor's named and court appointed guardian, who owns the Policy in his or her capacity as trustee or guardian. Where a minor is a named beneficiary, we are able to pay the minor's beneficiary payments to the minor's trustee or guardian. Some states allow us to make such payments up to a limited amount directly to parents. Parents seeking to have a minor's interest made payable to them for the minor's benefit are encouraged to check with their local court to determine the process to be appointed as the minor's guardian; it is often a very simple process that can be accomplished without the assistance of an attorney. If there is no adult representative able to give us an adequate release for payment of the minor's beneficiary interest, we will retain the minor's interest on deposit until the minor attains the age of majority. POLICY CHANGES Any change to your Policy is only effective if on a form acceptable to us, and then only once it is received at our Service Office and recorded on our records. Information on how to contact us to determine what information is needed and where you can get various forms for Policy changes is shown on this Prospectus' first two pages and last page. POLICY TERMINATION We may treat any partial withdrawal that leaves a Cash Surrender Value of less than $1,000 as a complete surrender of the Policy. See this prospectus' POLICY DISTRIBUTIONS: Withdrawals section for more information. If you have paid no premiums during the previous 36-month period, we have the right to pay you the total value of your Policy in a lump sum and cancel the Policy if (i) the Cash Surrender Value is less than $1,000 (does not apply to IRAs), or (ii) the paid-up life-time income annuity benefit at maturity, based on an accumulation of the Policy value to maturity, would be less than $20 per month. POLICY DISTRIBUTIONS There are several ways to take all or part of your investment out of your Policy, both before and after the Annuity Date. Tax penalties may apply to amounts taken out of your Policy before the Annuity Date. Your Policy also provides a death benefit that may be paid upon your death prior to the Annuity Date. All or part of a death benefit may be taxable. WITHDRAWALS Withdrawals may be suject to: - Income Tax - Penalty Tax You may withdraw, by Written Notice, all or part of your Policy's Cash Surrender Value prior to the Annuity Date. Following a full surrender of the Policy, or at any time the Policy value is zero, all your rights in the Policy end. Total surrender requires you to return your Policy to us. Withdrawal Rules o Withdrawals must be by Written Notice. A request for a systematic withdrawal plan must be on our form and must specify a date for the first payment, which must be the 1st through 28th day of the month. o Minimum withdrawal is $250. o We may treat any partial withdrawal that leaves a Cash Surrender Value of less than $1,000 as a complete surrender of the Policy. o Withdrawal results in cancellation of Accumulation Units from each applicable Subaccount and deduction of Policy value from any Fixed Account option. If you do not specify which investment option(s) from which to take the withdrawal, it will be taken from each investment option in the proportion that the Policy value in each investment option bears to the total Policy value. o The amount paid to you upon total surrender of the Policy (taking any prior partial withdrawals into account) may be less than the total premiums made, because we will deduct any charges owed but not NLVA 6150 -21- yet paid, a premium tax charge may apply to withdrawals, and because you bear the investment risk for all amounts you allocate to the Separate Account. o Unless you give us Written Notice not to withhold taxes from a withdrawal, we must withhold 10% of the taxable amount withdrawn to be paid as a federal tax, as well as any amounts required by state laws to be withheld for state income taxes. ALIC and the Separate Account may allow facsimile request forms and signatures to be used for the purpose of a "Written Notice" authorizing withdrawals from your Policy. You may complete and execute a withdrawal form and send it to our Service Center fax number, 402-467-7923. We may offer this method of withdrawal as a service to meet your needs when turnaround time is critical. However, by not requiring an original signature there is a greater possibility that unauthorized persons can manipulate your signature and make changes on your Policy (including withdrawals) without your knowledge. o Systematic Withdrawal Plan The systematic withdrawal plan allows you to automatically withdraw payments of a pre-determined dollar amount or fixed percentage of Policy value from a specified investment option monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. We can support and encourage your use of electronic fund transfer of systematic withdrawal plan payments to an account of yours that you specify to us. The fixed dollar amount of systematic withdrawals may be calculated in support of Internal Revenue Service minimum distribution requirements over the lifetime of the Annuitant. No systematic withdrawal may be established after the 28th of each month. Although this plan mimics annuity payments, each distribution is a withdrawal that may be taxable and subject to the charges and expenses described above; you may wish to consult a tax adviser before requesting this plan. DEATH BENEFITS o Death Benefit Upon Owner's Death We will pay the death benefit after we receive Due Proof of Death of an Owner's death and we have sufficient information about the beneficiary to make the payment. Death benefits may be paid pursuant to an annuity income option to the extent allowed by applicable law and any settlement agreement in effect at your death. If the beneficiary does not make an annuity income option election within 60 days of our receipt of Due Proof of Death, we will issue a lump-sum payment to the beneficiary. A death benefit is payable upon: - Your Policy being in force; - Receipt of Due Proof of Death of the first Owner to die; - Election of an annuity income option; and - Proof that the Owner died before any annuity payments begin. "Due Proof of Death" is a certified copy of a death certificate, a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death, a written statement by the attending physician, or any other proof satisfactory to us. Until we receive satisfactory proof of death and instructions, in the proper form, from your beneficiaries, your Policy will remain allocated to the Subaccounts you chose, so the amount of the death benefit will reflect the investment performance of those Subaccounts during this period. If your Policy has multiple beneficiaries, we will calculate and pay each beneficiary's share of the death benefit proceeds when we receive satisfactory proof of death and instructions, in proper form, from that beneficiary. The death benefit proceeds still remaining to be paid to other beneficiaries will continue to fluctuate with the investment performance of the Subaccounts you chose, until each beneficiary has provided us instructions in the proper form. If an Owner of the Policy is a corporation, trust or other non-individual, we treat the primary Annuitant as an Owner for purposes of the death benefit. The "primary Annuitant" is that individual whose life affects the timing or the amount of the death benefit payout under the Policy. A change in the primary Annuitant will be treated as the death of an Owner. If the Annuitant is an Owner or joint Owner, the Annuitant's death is treated as the Owner's death. If the Annuitant is not an Owner and the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date, the Owner may name a new Annuitant if such Owner(s) is not a corporation or other non-individual or if such Owner is the trustee of an Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a) retirement plan. If the Owner does not name a new Annuitant, the Owner will become the Annuitant. NLVA 6150 -22- If your spouse is the Policy beneficiary, Annuitant, or a joint Owner, special tax rules apply. See the IRS Required Distribution Upon Death of Owner section below. We will deduct any applicable premium tax not previously deducted from the death benefit payable. In most cases, when death benefit proceeds are paid in a lump sum, we will pay the death benefit proceeds by establishing an interest bearing account for the beneficiary, in the amount of the death benefit proceeds payable. The same interest rate schedule and other account terms will apply to all beneficiary accounts in place at any given time. 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 proceeds payable. The 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 general account. o Standard Death Benefit Upon any Owner's death before the Annuity Date, the Policy will end, and we will pay a death benefit to your beneficiary. The death benefit equals the larger of: - your Policy value on the later of the date we receive Due Proof of Death or an annuity payout option election less any charge for applicable premium taxes; or - adjusted guaranteed death benefit premiums. We define adjusted guaranteed death benefit premiums as total premiums paid into the Policy less an adjustment for each withdrawal. If you have not taken any withdrawals from the Policy, the adjusted guaranteed death benefit premiums is equal to the total premiums paid into the Policy. To calculate the adjustment amount for the first withdrawal made under the Policy, we determine the percentage by which the withdrawal reduces the Policy value. For example, a $10,000 withdrawal from a Policy with a $100,000 value is a 10% reduction in Policy value. This percentage is calculated by dividing the amount of the withdrawal by the Policy value immediately prior to taking that withdrawal. The resulting percentage is multiplied by the total premiums paid into the Policy immediately prior to the withdrawal and then subtracted from the total premiums paid into the Policy immediately prior to the withdrawal. The resulting amount is the adjusted guaranteed death benefit premiums. To arrive at the adjusted guaranteed death benefit premiums for subsequent withdrawals, we determine the percentage by which the Policy value is reduced by taking the amount of the withdrawal in relation to the Policy value immediately prior to taking the withdrawal. We then multiply the adjusted guaranteed death benefit premiums as determined immediately prior to the withdrawal by this percentage. We subtract that result from the adjusted guaranteed death benefit premiums determined immediately prior to the withdrawal to arrive at the subsequent guaranteed death benefit premiums. Upon any Owner's death on or after the Annuity Date and before all proceeds have been paid, no death benefit is payable, but any remaining proceeds will be paid to the designated annuity benefit payee based on the annuity income option in effect at the time of death. o IRS Required Distribution Upon Death of Owner Federal law requires that if your Policy is tax non-qualified and you die before the Annuity Date, then the entire value of your Policy must be distributed within 5 years of your death. The 5-year rule does not apply to that portion of the proceeds which (a) is for the benefit of an individual beneficiary; and (b) will be paid over the lifetime or the life expectancy of that beneficiary as long as payments begin not later than one year after the date of your death. Special rules may apply to your surviving spouse. A more detailed description of these rules and other required distribution rules that apply to tax-qualified Policies are included in Appendix B of this prospectus. o Tables Illustrating Benefits Upon Death The following tables illustrate benefits payable, if any, upon death of a party to the Policy for most, but not necessarily all, situations. The terms of any Policy rider or qualified plan funded by the Policy may change this information. Please consult your own legal and tax advisor for advice. You may contact us for more information.

ANNUITY INCOME BENEFITS A primary function of an annuity contract, like this Policy, is to provide annuity payments to the payee(s) you name. You will receive the annuity benefits unless you designate another payee(s). The level of annuity payments is determined by your Policy value, the Annuitant's sex (except where prohibited by law) and age, and the annuity income option selected. All or part of your Policy Cash Surrender Value may be placed under one or more annuity income options. Annuity payments must be made to individuals receiving payments on their own behalf, unless otherwise agreed to by us. Any annuity income option is effective only after we acknowledge it. We may require initial and ongoing proof of the Owner's or Annuitant's age or survival. Unless you specify otherwise, the payee is the Owner. Annuity payments: - require investments to be allocated to our general account, so are not variable. - may be taxable and, if premature, subject to a tax penalty Payments under the annuity income options are fixed annuity payments based on a fixed rate of interest at or higher than the minimum effective annual rate which is guaranteed to yield 1.5% on an annual basis. We have sole discretion whether or not to pay a higher interest rate for all annuity income options. Current annuity income option amounts for all options are used if higher than the guaranteed amounts (guaranteed amounts are based upon the tables contained in the Policy). The guaranteed amounts for all annuity income options are based on the interest rate described above. Guaranteed amounts for options 4 and 5 are also based on the A2000 Valuation Mortality Table, projected 20 years. Current interest rates, and further information, may be obtained from us. The amount of each fixed annuity payment is set and begins on the Annuity Date, and does not change. o When Annuity Income Payments Begin You select the Annuity Date by completing an election form that you can request from us at any time. This date may not be any earlier than the fifth Policy Anniversary. If you do not specify a date, the Annuity Date will be the later of the Policy Anniversary nearest the Annuitant's 85th birthday or the fifth Policy Anniversary. Tax-qualified Policies may require an earlier Annuity Date. You may change this date by sending Written Notice for our receipt at least 30 days before the then current Annuity Date. NLVA 6150 -24- o Selecting an Annuity Income Option You choose the annuity income option by completing an election form that you can request from us at any time. You may change your selection during your life by sending Written Notice for our receipt at least 30 days before the date annuity payments are scheduled to begin. If no selection is made by then, we will apply the Policy Cash Surrender Value to make annuity payments under annuity income option 4 providing lifetime income payments. The longer the guaranteed or projected annuity income option period, the lower the amount of each annuity payment. If you die before the Annuity Date (and the Policy is in force), your beneficiary may elect to receive the death benefit under one of the annuity income options (unless applicable law or a settlement agreement dictate otherwise). o Annuity Income Options Once fixed annuity payments under an annuity income option begin, they cannot be changed. (We may allow the Annuitant or Beneficiary to transfer amounts applied under options 1, 2 or 3 to option 4, 5 or 6 after the Annuity Date. However, we reserve the right to discontinue this practice.) When the Owner dies, we will pay any unpaid guaranteed payments to your beneficiary. Upon the last payee's death, we will pay any unpaid guaranteed payments to that payee's estate. Note: Unless you elect an annuity income option with a guaranteed period or option 1, it is possible that only one annuity payment would be made under the annuity payout option if the Annuitant dies before the due date of the second annuity payment, only two annuity payments would be made if the Annuitant died before the due date of the third annuity payment, etc. This would not happen if you elect an annuity option guaranteeing either the amount or duration of payments, or just paying interest (options 1, 2, or 3). Part or all of any annuity payment may be taxable as ordinary income. If, at the time annuity payments begin, you have not given us Written Notice not to withhold federal income taxes, we must by law withhold such taxes from the taxable portion of each annuity payment and remit it to the Internal Revenue Service. (Withholding is mandatory for certain tax-qualified Policies.) We may pay your Policy proceeds to you in one sum if they are less than $1,000, or when the annuity income option chosen would result in periodic payments of less than $20. If any annuity payment would be or becomes less than $20, we also have the right to change the frequency of payments to an interval that will result in payments of at least $20. In no event will we make payments under an annuity option less frequently than annually. The annuity income options are: (1) Interest Payment. While proceeds remain on deposit, we annually credit interest to the proceeds. The interest may be paid to the payee or added to the amount on deposit. (2) Designated Amount Annuity. Proceeds are paid in monthly installments of a specified amount over at least a 5-year period until proceeds, with interest, have been fully paid. (3) Designated Period Annuity. Proceeds are paid in monthly installments for the specified period chosen. Monthly incomes for each $1,000 of proceeds, which include interest, are illustrated by a table in the Policy. (4) Lifetime Income Annuity. Proceeds are paid as monthly income during the Annuitant's life. Variations provide for guaranteed payments for a period of time. (5) Joint and Last Survivor Lifetime Income Annuity. Proceeds are paid as monthly income during the joint Annuitants' lives and until the last of them dies. (6) Lump Sum. Proceeds are paid in one sum. GLWB RIDER A Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit ("GLWB") rider is part of your Policy at the time of issue if the Policy Date is on or after November 5, 2007 and if the rider is approved in your state. The rider may be issued in its Inactive Phase for any issue age 0 - 85. It may be issued in an active status when the Policy Owner is age 49 years, six months and one day ("attained age 50") through age 85 years, 6 months ("attained age 85"). Active status riders will be either in the Accumulation Phase or the Withdrawal Phase. You may activate the rider subject to the terms and conditions stated below. The GLWB rider provides a withdrawal benefit that guarantees a series of annualized withdrawals from the Policy, regardless of the Policy value, until your death or the death of the last surviving Covered Person. Guarantees, which are obligations of the general account, are subject to the claims paying ability of the Company and do not apply to the performance of the underlying investment options available with this product. NLVA 6150 -25- o GLWB Definitions Benefit phases are defined as: o Inactive Phase. The period of time when this rider is inactive. The Owner chooses when to end the Inactive Phase, but it cannot end before the Youngest Age 50. o Accumulation Phase. The period of time between the Rider Activation Date and the first date of the Withdrawal Phase. o Withdrawal Phase. The period of time beginning with the occurrence of the first withdrawal as outlined in the Withdrawal Phase section of this rider. o Guaranteed Phase. The period of time during which Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Amount payments continue to be made, although the Policy value has been reduced to zero. Benefit Base. The amount used in conjunction with a lifetime distribution factor to determine the Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Amount. Covered Person(s). o The Owner of the Policy or; o The Annuitant if the Owner of the Policy is a non-natural person, such as a trust or; o The spouses when the joint spousal option is selected. Once the rider is activated, no changes to the Covered Persons will be permitted. Excess Withdrawal. The portion of any withdrawal taken during the Withdrawal Phase that makes the total of all withdrawals in a Rider Year exceed the Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Amount in that Rider Year. Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Amount ("LWBA"). The maximum amount that can be withdrawn under this rider during a Rider Year without reducing the Benefit Base. Maximum Anniversary Policy Value. The highest Policy value on any Policy Anniversary during the 10-year period after the later of the Rider Activation Date or the most recent reset date. Monthly Anniversary. The same date in a succeeding month as the Policy Date. Premium Accumulation Value. The sum of premiums paid, accumulated at an annual compound rate of interest for a 10-year period during the Accumulation Phase beginning with the later of the Rider Activation Date or the most recent reset date. The rate of interest is: o 5% for the Rider Year in which no withdrawal is taken o 0% for the Rider Year in which a withdrawal is taken The initial Premium Accumulation Value is determined as follows: o If the Rider Activation Date is the same as the Policy Date, it is equal to the initial premium. o If the Rider Activation Date is after the Policy Date, it is equal to the Policy value as of the Rider Activation Date. Remaining Balance. The most recently determined Benefit Base minus the sum of all withdrawals made since the later of the beginning of the Withdrawal Phase or the most recent step-up of the Benefit Base. The Remaining Balance will never be less than zero. Rider Activation Date. The end of the Inactive Phase and the beginning of the Accumulation Phase or the Withdrawal Phase. It must coincide with a Monthly Anniversary and cannot occur before the Youngest Age 50. Rider Year. For the first Rider Year, the period of time from the Rider Activation Date to the next Policy Anniversary. Subsequent Rider Years will coincide with Policy Years. RMD. The required minimum distribution amount as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a)(9) and related Code provisions. It is based on the previous year-end Policy value of the Policy to which the rider is attached, including the present value of additional benefits provided under the Policy and any other riders attached to the Policy to the extent required to be taken into account under IRS guidance. Youngest Age. The attained age of the youngest Covered Person. NLVA 6150 -26- o Inactive Phase The following apply during the Inactive Phase: o No charges for the rider will be deducted from the Policy value. o No restrictions are imposed on withdrawals other than those provided by the base Policy. o No restrictions are imposed on asset allocations other than those provided by the base Policy. o No determinations are made of Premium Accumulation Value, Maximum Anniversary Policy Value, or Benefit Base as they apply to the benefits and provisions of the GLWB rider. The end of the Inactive Phase coincides with the Rider Activation Date. o Activation of Rider Rider Activation Date The rider will be activated on the Monthly Anniversary following our receipt of the properly completed service forms and your written consent granting AIC discretionary authority as described in the Model Asset Allocation Program section and below, but no earlier than the Youngest Age 50. Rider Charges The Guaranteed Maximum Charge and the Current Charge for the rider are shown in the CHARGES section of this prospectus and other information about the rider charges is discussed in the CHARGES EXPLAINED section. Asset Allocation Beginning on the Rider Activation Date, the GLWB rider limits individual transfers and future premium allocations otherwise permitted by the Policy. By activating the rider, you agree that your Policy value will be invested in one of certain allowable allocation models while the rider is active, and you agree to a rebalancing schedule. The models currently available for use with the GLWB rider are: Capital Growth, Moderate, Balanced, and Conservative. You are permitted to transfer your total Policy value from one allowable allocation model to another allowable allocation model. AIC will serve as your investment adviser fiduciary solely for purposes of development of the asset allocation models and periodic updates to the models or deletion of models available under the GLWB. The conditions of the Model Asset Allocation program will apply. However, changes to your allocations outside the allowable models will terminate the rider. Only you can select the allowable asset model best for you. AIC will not make this decision for you. Premium payments made to the Policy value during the Accumulation Phase and Withdrawal Phase will be credited proportionally to the subaccounts contained in the asset allocation model you have selected. All withdrawals will be deducted proportionally from the subaccounts in the asset allocation model. We have the right to discontinue access to an allocation model. If an allocation model will be discontinued, we will notify you within 30 days prior to the change. If after 30 days you have not selected another allowable allocation model, we will transfer all funds from the discontinued allocation model to a default model as specified in the notice. You may later request to transfer your total Policy value from the default model to any of the remaining asset allocation models. We will notify you in the event any transaction you request will involuntarily cause your GLWB rider to terminate for failure to invest according to an allowable asset allocation model. We will require you to sign a form to terminate your GLWB rider and request the investment option change. Until the service form is received in good order in our office, we will not complete your requested change. Continuation of Rider by Surviving Spouse for Single Life Option This section applies only to Policies issued as tax non-qualified, or to Policies issued as Regular, SEP, SIMPLE, or Roth IRAs. Continuation of the rider is not available to a surviving spouse when the single life option was selected and the Policy was issued under a qualified plan established by the applicable provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 401. If the Covered Person dies during the Accumulation Phase of the rider and if the surviving spouse of the deceased Covered Person elects to continue the policy in accordance with its terms, the surviving spouse may elect to add the rider for his or her life. NLVA 6150 -27- a. If the surviving spouse has not reached attained age 50, the rider will become inactive and will enter the Inactive Phase. b. If the surviving spouse has reached attained age 50, the rider will continue in the Accumulation Phase and the Premium Accumulation Value and Maximum Anniversary Policy Value will be set equal to the Policy value. The charge for the rider will equal the charge in effect for new issues of the same rider and will not exceed the maximum charge as stated in the CHARGES section of this prospectus. If the Covered Person dies during the Withdrawal Phase, and if the surviving spouse of the deceased Covered Person elects to continue the Policy in accordance with its terms, the surviving spouse may continue the Policy and the rider. The LWBA in effect on the date of the Covered Person's death will be paid until such time that the Remaining Balance is reduced to zero. No step-up of the Benefit Base is available after the Covered Person's death. o Accumulation Phase Reset Feature On each Policy Anniversary during the Accumulation Phase, the Premium Accumulation Value will be reset to the Policy value, if it is greater. At the time of a reset: 1. A new 10-year period begins for: a. Premium Accumulation Value; and, b. Comparison of anniversary Policy values to determine the Maximum Anniversary Policy Value. 2. The charge for the rider will equal the charge in effect for new issues of the same rider. 3. If the charge increases, we will notify you within 30 days prior to the Policy Anniversary. The charge for the rider will be specified in the notice and will not exceed the maximum charge as stated in the CHARGES section of this prospectus. 4. You can decline the charge increase by sending us written notice no later than 10 days prior to the Policy Anniversary. If you decline the charge increase, the reset feature will be suspended and the charge percentage will remain unchanged for the current Policy Year. On each subsequent Policy Anniversary during the Accumulation Phase you will have the option to accept any available reset. On and after each reset, the provisions of the rider will apply in the same manner as they applied when the rider was originally activated. The deduction of charges, limitations on withdrawals, and any future reset options available on and after the most recent reset will again apply and will be measured from the most recent reset. Withdrawals You are permitted one withdrawal per Rider Year during the Accumulation Phase without initiating the Withdrawal Phase. (The withdrawal must be at least $250 and conform to other terms in the WITHDRAWALS section of this prospectus.) You must indicate your wish to exercise this provision at the time you request the withdrawal. The withdrawal can be no sooner than 30 days after the Policy Date. A second request for a withdrawal in a Rider Year will automatically transition the rider to the Withdrawal Phase as described below. A withdrawal will reduce the Premium Accumulation Value and the Maximum Anniversary Policy Value in the same proportion that the withdrawal amount has to the Policy value prior to the withdrawal. The Premium Accumulation Value and Maximum Anniversary Policy Value after the withdrawal, respectively, will be equal to (a), minus the result of multiplying (a) by the quotient of (b) divided by (c) as shown in the following formula: a - (a * (b / c)) where: a = Premium Accumulation Value or Maximum Anniversary Policy Value prior to the withdrawal; b = withdrawal amount; c = Policy value prior to the withdrawal Taking a withdrawal under this provision will reduce the annual rate of interest for the Premium Accumulation Value to 0% for the Rider Year in which the withdrawal is taken. NLVA 6150 -28- o Withdrawal Phase You may choose to begin withdrawal payments no sooner than 30 days after the Policy Date and no later than 60 days after the date we receive the properly completed service form in our office. Benefit Base The Benefit Base is established at the beginning of the Withdrawal Phase. It is not used to determine other benefits or features of the Policy or the rider. The initial Benefit Base equals the greatest of the following, determined at the beginning of the Withdrawal Phase: o Policy value o Premium Accumulation Value o Maximum Anniversary Policy Value The Benefit Base is adjusted downward due to an Excess Withdrawal and upward due to step-up or additional premium payments. Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit Amount We guarantee, as an obligation of our general account, that you can withdraw up to the LWBA during the Withdrawal Phase, regardless of Policy value, until the death of the last Covered Person. The LWBA is determined by applying the lifetime distribution factor to the Benefit Base. The lifetime distribution factor corresponds to the Youngest Age at the beginning of the Withdrawal Phase. The lifetime distribution factor is established from the following schedule; it never changes once it is established: o 4.0% - ages 50 through 54 o 4.5% - ages 55 through 59 o 5.0% - ages 60 through 64 o 5.5% - ages 65 through 69 o 6.0% - ages 70 through 74 o 6.5% - ages 75 through 79 o 7.0% - age 80 and older At any time that the Benefit Base is adjusted, the LWBA is re-determined by applying the lifetime distribution factor to the adjusted Benefit Base. You have the choice of receiving withdrawals on an annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or monthly basis. If periodic withdrawals would be or become less than $100, we will change the frequency of withdrawals to an interval that will result in a payment of at least $100. Impact of Withdrawals on Benefit Base Withdrawals taken during the Withdrawal Phase may impact the Benefit Base. Total withdrawals in a Rider Year up to the LWBA will not reduce the Benefit Base and will not impact the LWBA. Also, if you are required to take RMD from the Policy and the RMD exceeds the LWBA, the portion of the RMD that is greater than the LWBA will not be treated as an Excess Withdrawal. However, any withdrawal amount that causes total withdrawals in a Rider Year to exceed the greater of the LWBA or the RMD will be treated as an Excess Withdrawal. At the time a withdrawal is taken, if the total withdrawals in a Rider Year exceed the LWBA, the excess will be considered as an Excess Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals will proportionally reduce the Benefit Base. The proportional reduction in the Benefit Base is equal to the quotient of (x) divided by the result of subtracting (z) minus (x) from (y): _____x____ (y - (z - x)) where: x = Excess Withdrawal amount with respect to LWBA; y = Policy value immediately prior to the withdrawal; z = total amount of the current withdrawal. A reduction in the Benefit Base will reduce the LWBA. No Excess Withdrawals will be allowed when the Policy value is zero. If an Excess Withdrawal reduces the LWBA to an amount less than $100, we will pay the Remaining Balance in a lump sum. The rider and its benefits will be terminated. NLVA 6150 -29- Step-Up of Benefit Base On each Policy Anniversary during the Withdrawal Phase, we will compare the Policy value to the Benefit Base. If the Policy value is greater than the Benefit Base on any anniversary, we will increase the Benefit Base to equal the Policy value and recalculate the LWBA, which will increase the LWBA. Additional Premiums Additional premium payments made during the Withdrawal Phase will: 1. increase the Policy value according to the provisions of the Policy; and, 2. increase the Benefit Base; and, 3. increase the LWBA. Premium payments made during the Withdrawal Phase may not exceed $100,000 during a Policy Year without our prior approval. Premium payments will not be accepted if the Policy value is zero. o Guaranteed Phase If a withdrawal (including an RMD) reduces the Policy value to zero and at least one Covered Person is still living, the following will apply: a. the monthly rider charge will no longer be deducted; and, b. the LWBA will be provided until the death of the last surviving Covered Person under a series of pre-authorized withdrawals according to a frequency selected by the owner, but no less frequently than annually; and, c. no additional premiums will be accepted; and, d. no additional step-ups will occur; and, e. any Remaining Balance will not be available for payment in a lump sum and may not be applied to provide payments under an annuity option; and, f. the Policy and any other riders will cease to provide any death benefits. o Death Benefit Upon the death of the last Covered Person, if the Policy is in the Withdrawal Phase, the beneficiary will select to receive either the Death Benefit as provided by the Policy and other riders, as applicable, or the distribution of the Remaining Balance accomplished through the payment of the LWBA subject to the IRS regulations as relating to RMD until such time that the Remaining Balance is zero. If the last surviving Covered Person dies and the Policy value is zero (the Guaranteed Phase of the GLWB rider) as of the date of death, any Remaining Balance of the Benefit Base will be distributed to the Beneficiary through the payment of the LWBA until such time that the Remaining Balance is zero. o Termination of Rider Except as otherwise provided under the Continuation of Rider by Surviving Spouse for Single Life Option, the rider will - terminate without value on the earliest occurrence of any of the following dates: 1. the date of death of the last surviving Covered Person; 2. the date there is a change of Owner; 3. the date annuity payments commence under an annuity income option as described in the Policy; 4. the date an Excess Withdrawal is taken such that the LWBA is less than $100; 5. the date any investment restriction is violated; 6. the date a loan is taken from the Policy, as applicable, during the Accumulation Phase or the Withdrawal Phase; 7. the date the Owner(s) provide us with written notice to terminate either the rider or the Policy. If annuity payments are to commence under number 3 above, at the maximum maturity date the owner may select one of the following options: a. apply the Policy value under an annuity income option described in the Policy, or b. receive periodic annualized payments equal to the LWBA that would otherwise be determined at that time through a life contingent annuity. NLVA 6150 -30- FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS This discussion of how federal income tax laws may affect investment in your variable annuity is based on our understanding of current laws as interpreted by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). It is NOT intended as tax advice. All information is subject to change without notice. We make no attempt to review any state or local laws, or to address estate or inheritance laws or other tax consequences of annuity ownership or receipt of distributions. You should consult a competent tax adviser to learn how tax laws apply to your annuity interests. Section 72 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code") governs taxation of annuities in general and Code Section 817 provides rules regarding the tax treatment of variable annuities. Other Code sections may also impact taxation of your variable annuity investment and/or earnings. o Tax Deferrals During Accumulation Period An important feature of variable annuities is tax-deferred treatment of earnings during the accumulation phase. An individual owner is not taxed on increases in the value of a Policy until a withdrawal occurs, either in the form of a non-periodic payment or as annuity payments under the settlement option selected. o Taxation of Withdrawals Withdrawals are included in gross income to the extent of any allocable income. Any amount in excess of the investment in the Policy is allocable to income. Accordingly, withdrawals are treated as coming first from the earnings, then, only after the income portion is exhausted, as coming from principal. If you make a withdrawal, not only is the income portion of such a distribution subject to federal income taxation, but a 10% penalty may apply. However, the penalty does not apply to distributions: o after the taxpayer reaches age 59 1/2; o upon the death of the Owner; o if the taxpayer is defined as totally disabled; o as periodic withdrawals that are a series of substantially equal periodic payments made at least annually for the life (or life expectancy) of the taxpayer or for the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of the taxpayer and the beneficiary; o under an immediate annuity; or o under certain other limited circumstances. o Taxation of Annuity Payments Earnings from a variable annuity are taxable only upon withdrawal and are treated as ordinary income. Generally, the Code provides for the return of your investment in an annuity policy in equal tax-free amounts over the annuity payout period. Fixed annuity payment amounts may be excluded from taxable income based on the ratio of the investment in the Policy to the total expected value of annuity payments. If you elect variable annuity payments, the amount excluded from taxable income is determined by dividing the investment in the Policy by the total number of expected payments. The balance of each payment is taxable income. After you recover your investment in the Policy, any payment you receive is fully taxable. (If a variable payment is less than the excludable amount you should contact your tax adviser to determine how to report any investment not recovered.) The taxable portion of any annuity payment is taxed at ordinary income tax rates. o Taxation of Death Proceeds A death benefit paid under the Policy is taxable income to the beneficiary. The rules on taxation of an annuity apply. Estate taxes may also apply to your estate, even if all or a portion of the benefit is subject to federal income taxes. To be treated as an annuity, a Policy must provide that: (1) if an Owner dies: (a) on or after the annuity starting date, and (b) before the entire interest in the Policy is distributed, the balance will be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method being used at the date of death, and (2) if the Owner dies before the annuity starting date, the entire interest must be distributed within five years of death. However, if an individual is designated as beneficiary they may take distribution over their life expectancy. If distributed in a lump sum, the death benefit amount is taxed in the same manner as a full withdrawal. If the beneficiary is the surviving spouse of the Owner it is possible to continue deferring taxes on the accrued and future income of the Policy until payments are made to the surviving spouse. NLVA 6150 -31- o Tax Treatment of Assignments and Transfers An assignment or pledge of an annuity Policy is treated as a withdrawal. Also, the Code (particularly for tax-qualified plans) and ERISA in some circumstances prohibit such transactions, subjecting them to income tax penalties and additional excise tax. Therefore, you should consult a competent tax adviser if you wish to assign or pledge your Policy. o Tax Treatments by Type of Owner A Policy held by an entity other than a natural person, such as a corporation, estate or trust, usually is not treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes unless annuity payments start within a year. The income on such a Policy is taxable in the year received or accrued by the Owner. However, this rule does not apply if the entity as Owner is acting as an agent for an individual or is an estate that acquired the Policy as a result of the death of the decedent. Nor does it apply if the Policy is held by certain qualified plans, is held pursuant to a qualified funding trust (structured settlement plan), or if an employer purchased the Policy under a terminated qualified plan. You should consult your tax adviser before purchasing a Policy to be owned by a non-natural person. o Annuity Used to Fund Qualified Plan The Policy is designed for use with various qualified plans, including: o Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs), Code Section 408(b); o Simplified Employee Pension (SEP IRA), Code Section 408(k); o Savings Incentive Match Plans for Employees (SIMPLE IRA), Code Section 408(p); and o Roth IRAs, Code Section 408A. The Policy will not provide additional tax deferral benefits if it is used to fund a tax-deferred qualified plan. However, Policy features and benefits other than tax deferral may make it an appropriate investment for a qualified plan. You should review the annuity features, including all benefits and expenses, prior to purchasing a variable annuity. Tax rules for qualified plans are very complex and vary according to the type and terms of the plan, as well as individual facts and circumstances. Each purchaser should obtain advice from a competent tax adviser prior to purchasing a Policy issued under a qualified plan. The Company reserves the right to limit the availability of the Policy for use with any of the plans listed above or to modify the Policy to conform to tax requirements. Some retirement plans are subject to requirements that we have not incorporated into our administrative procedures. Unless we specifically consent, we are not bound by plan requirements to the extent that they conflict with the terms of the Policy. o Tax Impact on Account Value Certain Policy credits are treated as taxable "earnings" and not "investments" for tax purposes. Taxable earnings are considered paid out first, followed by the return of your premiums (investment amounts). In addition, taxation order generally considers the last premium withdrawn first ("last-in, first-out"). NLVA 6150 -32- MISCELLANEOUS ABOUT OUR COMPANY Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. ("Ameritas") issues the Policy described in this prospectus and is responsible for providing each Policy's insurance and annuity benefits. We are a stock life insurance company organized under the insurance laws of the State of Nebraska - Nebraska's first insurance company - in business since 1887. We are engaged in the business of issuing individual life insurance, annuities and group dental and vision insurance, retirement plans and 401(k) plans throughout the United States, except the State of New York. We are an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of UNIFI Mutual Holding Company ("UNIFI"). Our address is 5900 "O" Street, Lincoln, Nebraska, 68510. (See the TABLE OF CONTENTS page of this prospectus, or the cover page or last page for information on how to contact us.) DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICIES Ameritas Investment Corp. ("AIC"), 5900 "O" Street, Lincoln, Nebraska 68510, a direct majority-owned subsidiary of Ameritas, is the principal underwriter of the Policies. AIC enters into contracts with various broker-dealers ("Distributors") to distribute Policies. All persons selling the Policy will be registered representatives of the Distributors, and will also be licensed as insurance agents to sell variable insurance products. AIC is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a broker-dealer and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). There is no premium load to cover sales and distribution expenses. All compensation or expense reimbursement received by AIC for serving as principal underwriter of the Policies will be paid by us from our other assets or surplus in our general account, which may include profits derived from mortality and expense risk charges and other charges made under the Policies. Policies can also be purchased from us through salaried employees who are registered representatives of AIC and who will not receive compensation related to the purchase. The Policies are also sold by individuals who are registered representatives of AIC or other broker-dealers. In these situations, we may pay AIC at a rate of up to 0.05% of all premium received, and other broker-dealers at a rate of up to 0.50% of premium plus an asset based administrative compensation of 0.10% (annualized) beginning in the second Policy Year. VOTING RIGHTS As required by law, we will vote the Subaccount shares in the underlying portfolios at regular and special shareholder meetings of the series funds pursuant to instructions received from persons having voting interests in the underlying portfolios. The underlying portfolios may not hold routine annual shareholder meetings. If you send us written voting instructions, we will follow your instructions in voting the Portfolio shares attributable to your Policy. If you do not send us written instructions, we will vote the shares attributable to your Policy in the same proportions as we vote the shares for which we have received instructions from other Policy owners. We will vote shares that we hold in the same proportions as we vote the shares for which we have received instructions from other Policy owners. It is possible that a small number of Policy owners can determine the outcome of a voting proposal. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS As of the date of this Prospectus, there are no proceedings affecting the Separate Account, or that are material in relation to our total assets. NLVA 6150 -33- APPENDIX A: Accumulation Unit Values The following table shows Accumulation Unit values ("AUVs") for the Subaccounts that fund obligations of Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Separate Account LLVA (the "Registrant") under variable annuity Policies offered by this prospectus. NLVA 6150 AUVs are shown as of the close of business each December 31, which marks the beginning and end of each fiscal period. The table also provides the number of Accumulation Units outstanding for each Subaccount variable investment option portfolio as of the end of the periods indicated for NLVA 6150, as well as accumulation units for the Registrant's NLVA 4080 policies, which are no longer offered for sale, but for which the Registrant may continue to accept payments. Policy expenses vary for each of the Registrant's variable annuities; therefore, NLVA 6150 AUVs are not representative of values for the NLVA 4080. The financial statements of the Subaccounts can be found in the Statement of Additional Information. (See the cover and Last Page to learn how to get a copy of the Statement of Additional Information.)

NLVA 6150 - A:7 - Accumulation Unit Values APPENDIX B: Tax-Qualified Plan Disclosures ------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCLOSURE SUMMARY For annuity policies issued as a: REGULAR IRA AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. SEP IRA SIMPLE IRA Roth IRA ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires us to provide you this disclosure statement. This Disclosure Statement explains the rules governing your Individual Retirement Account (IRA). The disclosure reflects our current understanding of the law, but for personal tax advice you should consult a lawyer or other licensed tax expert to learn how the applicable tax laws apply to your situation. This Disclosure Summary is NOT intended as, nor does it constitute, legal or tax advice. For further information about IRAs, contact any district office of the IRS, or consult IRS Publication 590: Individual Retirement Arrangements. If you have any questions about your Policy, please contact us at the address and telephone number shown below. YOUR RIGHT TO CANCEL You may cancel your IRA within seven days after the date you receive this disclosure statement. To revoke your plan and receive a refund for the amount paid for your IRA, you must send a signed and dated written notice to cancel your Policy no later than the seventh day after issuance to us at: Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Service Center, Attn: Annuity Service Team P.O. Box 81889 Lincoln, NE 68501 Telephone 1-800-745-1112 Your revocation will be effective on the date of the postmark (or certification or registration, if applicable), if sent by United States mail, properly addressed and by first class postage prepaid. After seven days following receipt of this Disclosure Statement, or longer, if required under state law, you cannot cancel. PROVISIONS OF IRA LAW This disclosure is applicable when our variable annuity Policy is used for a Regular IRA, Spousal IRA, Rollover IRA, or a Roth IRA. Additionally, this disclosure provides basic information for when our variable annuity Policy is used for a Simplified Employee Pension (SEP)-IRA, or Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE)-IRA. A separate policy must be purchased for each individual under each arrangement/plan. While Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") provisions for IRAs are similar for all such arrangements/plans, certain differences are set forth below. REGULAR IRA Eligibility You are eligible to establish a Regular IRA if you are younger than age 70 1/2 and if, at any time during the year, you receive compensation or earned income that is includible in your gross income. Your spouse may also establish a "spousal IRA" that you may contribute to out of your compensation or earned income for any year before the year in which your spouse reaches age 70 1/2. To contribute to a spousal IRA, you and your spouse must file a joint tax return for the taxable year. Additionally, regardless of your age, you may transfer funds from another IRA or certain qualified plans to a "Rollover IRA", which is described below. Annual Contribution Limits You may make annual contributions to a Regular IRA of up to the Annual Contribution Limit ($3,000 for 2004, $4,000 for 2005 through 2007, and $5,000 in 2008 and 2009), or 100% of your earned income (compensation), whichever is less. If you are age 50 or older, the Annual Contribution Limits are increased by $1,000, so long as your earned income or compensation is greater than the Annual Contribution Limit. Beginning after 2009, the Annual Contribution Limits will be increased by the IRS to reflect inflation. If you and your spouse both work and have compensation that is includible in your gross income, each of you can annually contribute to a separate Regular IRA up to the lesser of the Annual Contribution Limit or 100% of your compensation or earned income. However, if one spouse earns less than the Annual Contribution Limit, but both spouses together earn at least twice the Annual Contribution Limit, it may be advantageous to use the spousal IRA. The total contributions Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. - B:1- Tax Qualified Plan Disclosures to both IRAs may not exceed the lesser of twice the Annual Contribution Limit or 100% of you and your spouse's combined compensation or earned income. The combined limit on contributions to both Regular and Roth IRAs for a single calendar year for you may not exceed the Annual Contribution Limit (or twice the Annual Contribution Limit for a couple filing jointly). Distributions from another IRA or certain other qualified plans may be "rolled over" into a Regular IRA and such rollover contributions are not limited by this annual maximum. Contributions must be made by the due date, not including extensions, for filing your tax return. A contribution made between January 1 and the filing due date for your return must be submitted with written direction that it is being made for the prior tax year or it will be treated as made for the current tax year. The amount of permissible contributions may or may not be tax-deductible depending on whether you are an active participant in an employer sponsored retirement plan and whether your adjusted gross income ("AGI") is above the phase-out level. Deductibility of Contributions Contributions made for the tax year are fully deductible if neither you nor your spouse (if married) is an active participant in an employer-sponsored retirement plan (including qualified pension, profit sharing, stock bonus, 401(k), or 403(b) plans, SEP plans, SIMPLE IRA, SIMPLE 401(k) plans, and certain governmental plans for any part of such year. If you are an active participant in an employer sponsored requirement plan you may make deductible contributions if your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) is below a threshold level of income. For single taxpayers and married taxpayers (who are filing jointly and are both active participants) the available deduction is reduced proportionately over a phaseout range. If you are married and an active participant in an employer retirement plan, but file a separate tax return from your spouse, your deduction is phased out between $0 and $10,000 of AGI. Active participants with income above the phaseout range are not entitled to an IRA deduction. The phaseout limits are scheduled to increase as follows: Married Filing Jointly Single/Head of Household ------------------------------- ------------------------ Year AGI AGI ---- 2004 $65,000 - $ 75,000 $45,000 - $55,000 2005 $70,000 - $ 80,000 $50,000 - $60,000 2006 $75,000 - $ 85,000 $50,000 - $60,000 2007 $80,000 - $ 100,000 $50,000 - $60,000 2008 $85,000 - $ 105,000 $53,000 - $63,000 2009 $89,000 - $ 109,000 $55, 000 - $65,000 If you are not an active participant in an employer sponsored plan, but your spouse is an active participant, you may take a full deduction for your IRA contribution (other than to a Roth IRA) if your AGI is below $166,000; if you are not an active participant but your spouse is, the maximum deductible contribution for you is phased out at AGIs between $166,000 and $176,000. Even if you will not be able to deduct the full amount of your Regular IRA contribution, you can still contribute up to the Annual Contribution Limit with all or part of the contribution being non-deductible. The combined total must not exceed your Annual Contribution Limit. Any earnings on all your Regular IRA contributions accumulate tax-free until you withdraw them. Excess Contributions If you contribute in excess of the maximum contribution limit allowed in any year, the excess contribution could be subject to a 6% excise tax. The excess is taxed in the year the excess contribution is made and each year that the excess remains in your Regular IRA. If you should contribute more than the maximum amount allowed, you can eliminate the excess contribution as follows: You may withdraw the excess contribution and net earnings attributable to it before the due date for filing your federal income tax in the year the excess contribution was made. Any earnings so distributed will be taxable in the year for which the contribution was made. If you elect not to withdraw an excess contribution, you may apply the excess against the contribution limits in a later year. This is allowed to the extent you under-contribute in the later year. The 6% excise tax will be imposed in the year you make the excess contribution and each subsequent year, until eliminated. To the extent an excess contribution is absorbed in a subsequent year by contributing less than the maximum deduction allowable for that year, the amount absorbed will be deductible in the year applied (provided you are eligible to take a deduction). Distributions From Your Regular IRA During Your Life You may take distributions from your Regular IRA at any time. However, there is a 10% premature distribution tax on the amount includible in your gross income distributed prior to you attaining age 59 1/2, unless: (1) the distribution is made to a beneficiary on or after the owner's death; (2) the distribution is made because of your permanent disability; (3) the distribution is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (made at least annually) that do not exceed your life expectant or the life expectancy of you and your designated beneficiary; (4) the distribution is made for medical expenses which exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income; (5) the distribution is made to purchase health insurance for the individual and/or his or her spouse and dependents if he or she: (a) has received unemployment compensation for 12 consecutive weeks or more; (b) the distributions are made during the tax year that the unemployment compensation is paid or the following tax year; and (c) the individual has not been re-employed for 60 days or more; (6) the distribution is made for certain qualified higher education expenses of the taxpayer, the taxpayer's spouse, or any child or grandchild of the taxpayer or the taxpayer's spouse; (7) the distribution is made for the qualified first-time home buyer expenses (up to a lifetime maximum of $10,000) incurred by you or your spouse or a child, grandchild, parent or grandparent of you or your spouse; or (8) the distribution is to satisfy a levy issued by the IRS. Generally, the part of a distribution attributable to non-deductible contributions is not includable in income and is not subject to the 10% penalty. When you reach age 70 1/2 you must elect to receive Required Minimum Distributions (RMD) no later than April 1 following the year in which you reach age 70 1/2 whether or not you have retired (Required Distribution Date). There is a minimum amount which you must withdraw by the Required Distribution Date and by each December 31 thereafter. We can provide the RMD amount for you, if you request us to make the calculation. Your own tax or financial adviser may calculate the amount of your minimum distribution each year to make sure this requirement is met, coordinating it with other IRAs you may own. Failure to take the Required Minimum Distribution could result in an additional tax of 50% of the amount not taken.* *Note: Required minimum distributions ("RMD") from IRAs are waived for the calendar year 2009, because of tax law changes signed into law December 23, 2008 (the Workers, Retiree and Employer Recovery Act of 2008). See IRS Notice 2009-9 or your tax adviser for more information. Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. - B:2- Tax Qualified Plan Disclosures Distributions From Your Regular IRA After Your Death If you die before all the funds in your Regular IRA have been distributed, the remaining funds will be distributed to your designated beneficiary as required below and as selected by such beneficiary. ** If you die before the Required Distribution Date, your designated beneficiary must withdraw the funds remaining as follows: 1) distributed no later than December 31 of the calendar year in which the fifth anniversary of your death occurs; or 2) distributed over the life or life expectancy of the named beneficiary and must begin on or before December 31 of the calendar year following the year of your death. However, if the named beneficiary is your spouse; payments may begin before December 31 of the calendar year in which you would have reached age 70 1/2. If you did not designate a proper beneficiary, the funds remaining shall be distributed within five years after your death. If you die after Required Minimum Distribution payments have begun, your designated beneficiary must select to have the remaining amount of your Regular IRA, distributed over the longer of 1) the beneficiary's life expectancy or 2) your remaining life expectancy beginning no later than December 31 of the calendar year following the year of your death. If you do not designate a proper beneficiary, your interest is distributed over your remaining life expectancy. * Your surviving spouse, if the sole beneficiary, may elect to treat your Regular IRA as his or her own Regular IRA. Tax Consequences Amounts paid to you or your beneficiary from your Regular IRA are taxable as ordinary income, except that you recover your nondeductible Regular IRA contributions tax-free. If a minimum distribution is not made from your IRA for a tax year in which it is required, the excess of the amount that should have been distributed over the amount that was actually distributed is subject to an excise tax of 50%. Tax-Free Rollovers Under certain circumstances, you, your spouse, or your former spouse (pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order) may roll over all or a portion of your distribution from another Regular IRA, a 401(a) qualified retirement plan, 401(k) plan, 403(b) plan, governmental 457 plan, SEP plan or SIMPLE plan into a Regular IRA. Such an event is called a Rollover and is a method for accomplishing continued tax deferral on otherwise taxable distributions from said plans. Rollover contributions are not subject to the contribution limits on Regular IRA contributions, but also are not tax deductible. There are two ways to make a Rollover to your IRA: 1. Participant Rollovers are accomplished by contributing part or all of the eligible Rollover distribution (which includes amounts withheld for federal income tax purposes) to your new IRA within 60 days following receipt of the distribution. Participant Rollover amounts are subject to a mandatory 20% federal income tax withholding. Regular IRA to Regular IRA Rollovers are limited to one per distributing plan per 12 month period. However, you may transfer traditional IRA assets to another traditional IRA (where you do not directly receive a distribution) and such transfers are not subject to this limitation. Distributions from a SIMPLE IRA may not be rolled over or transferred to an IRA (which isn't a SIMPLE IRA) during the 2-year period following the date you first participate in any SIMPLE Plan maintained by your employer. 2. Direct Rollovers are made by instructing the plan trustee, custodian, or issuer to pay the eligible portion of your distribution directly to the trustee, custodian or issuer of the receiving IRA. Direct Rollover amounts are not subject to mandatory federal income tax withholding. Certain distributions are not considered to be eligible for Rollover and include: a. distributions which are part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (made at least annually) for 10 years or more; b. required minimum distributions made during or after the year you reach age 70 1/2; c. any hardship distributions made under the terms of the plan; and d. amounts in excess of the cash (except for certain loan offset amounts) or in excess of the proceeds from the sale of property distributed. Under certain circumstances, you may roll over all or a portion of your eligible distribution from your Regular IRA to a 401(a) qualified retirement plan, 401(k) plan, 403(b) plan, or governmental 457 (No Regular IRA Rollovers to Simple IRAs are allowed). However, you may not roll after-tax contributions from your Regular IRA to a 401(a), 401(k) plan, 403(b) plan, or governmental 457 plan. For rules applicable to rollovers or transfers to Roth IRAs, see the paragraphs on Roth IRA, next page. SEP IRA A SEP Plan allows self-employed people and small business owners to establish SEP IRAs for the business owner and eligible employees, if any. SEP IRAs have specific eligibility and contribution limits (as described in IRS Form 5305-SEP); otherwise SEP IRAs follow the same rules as Regular IRAs. ** SIMPLE IRA SIMPLE IRAs operate in connection with a SIMPLE Plan maintained by an eligible employer. Each participating employee has a SIMPLE IRA to receive contributions under the plan. SIMPLE IRAs have specific eligibility, contribution, and tax-withdrawal penalties (as described in IRS Form 5304-SIMPLE); otherwise, SIMPLE IRAs follow the same rules as Regular IRAs. ** ** See Note, page B:2. Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. - B:3- Tax Qualified Plan Disclosures ROTH IRA Eligibility You are eligible to make annual contributions to a Roth IRA if you receive compensation from employment, earnings from self-employment, or alimony, and your (and your spouse's) AGI is within the limits described below. Also, you may contribute to a different Roth IRA, established by your spouse (spousal Roth IRA), out of your compensation or earned income for any year. Unlike Regular IRAs, if eligible, you may contribute to a Roth IRA even after age 70 1/2. Limit on Annual Contributions You can make annual contributions to a Roth IRA of up to the Annual Contribution Limit or 100% of your compensation or earned income, whichever is less, subject to the limitations below. The Annual Contribution Limit is $4,000 for 2005 through 2007, and $5,000 thereafter. If you are age 50 or older, the Annual Contribution Limits are increased by $1,000 per year, so long as your earned income or compensation is greater than the Annual Contribution Limit. Beginning after 2009, the Annual Contribution Limits will be increased by the IRS to reflect inflation. If each spouse earns at least the Annual Contribution Limit, each of you may make the maximum contribution to your Roth IRA respectively, subject to the limitations discussed below. However, if one spouse earns less than the Annual Contribution limit, but both spouses together earn at least twice the Annual Contribution Limit, it may be advantageous to use the spousal Roth IRA. The total contributions to both Roth IRAs may not exceed the lesser of twice the Annual Contribution Limit or 100% of you and your spouse's combined compensation or earned income. The Annual Contribution Limit is the maximum that can be contributed to all IRAs (Roth and Regular) by an individual in a year. The maximum amount that may be contributed to your Roth IRA is always reduced by any amount that you have contributed to your Regular IRAs for the year. The maximum amount you or your spouse may contribute to a Roth IRA is limited based on your tax filing status and your (and your spouse's) AGI. You may contribute the maximum contribution to your Roth IRA if you are single and your AGI is less than $105,000. Your ability to contribute to your Roth IRA is phased out at $120,000. You may contribute the maximum contribution to your Roth IRA if you are married filing jointly and your AGI is less than $166,000. Your ability to contribute to your Roth IRA is phased out at $176,000. Roth IRA contributions must be made by the due date, not including extensions, for filing your tax return. A contribution made between January 1 and the filing due date for your return, must be submitted with written direction that it is being made for the prior tax year or it will be treated as made for the current tax year. Deductibility of Contributions Unlike a Regular IRA, contributions to your Roth IRA are not deductible. Excess Contributions If you contribute in excess of the maximum contribution limit allowed in any year, the excess contribution could be subject to a 6% excise tax. The excess is taxed in the year the excess contribution is made and each year that the excess remains in your Roth IRA. If you should contribute more than the maximum amount allowed, you can eliminate the excess contribution as follows: o You may withdraw the excess contribution and net earnings attributable to it before the due date for filing your federal income tax in the year the excess contribution was made. Any earnings so distributed will be taxable in the year for which the contribution was made and may be subject to the 10% premature distribution tax. o If you elect not to withdraw an excess contribution, you may apply the excess against the contribution limits in a later year. This is allowed to the extent you under-contribute in the later year. The 6% excise tax will be imposed in the year you make the excess contribution and each subsequent year, until eliminated. To the extent an excess contribution is absorbed in a subsequent year by contributing less than the maximum deduction allowable for that year, the amount absorbed will be deductible in the year applied (provided you are eligible to take a deduction). Tax on Withdrawals From Your Roth IRA You can make withdrawals from your Roth IRA at any time and the principal amounts that you contributed are always available to be withdrawn by you tax-free. Withdrawal of amounts considered earnings or growth will also be tax-free if the following qualified distribution requirements are met: 1) the withdrawal must satisfy the five-year holding period and be made either on or after you reach 59 1/2, due to your death or disability, or for qualified first-time homebuyer expenses. If the requirements for a tax-free withdrawal are not met, a withdrawal consisting of your own prior contribution amounts for your Roth IRA will not be considered taxable in the year you receive it, nor will the 10% penalty apply. A non-qualified withdrawal that is considered earnings on your contributions is includible in your gross income and may be subject to the 10% withdrawal penalty. Also, the 10% premature distribution penalty tax may apply to conversion amounts distributed even though they are not includable in income, if the distribution is made within the 5-taxable-year period beginning on the first day of the individual's taxable year in which the conversion contribution was made. Required Payments From Your Roth IRA Unlike a Regular IRA, while you are living, there are no distribution requirements for your Roth IRA. After your death, if you have begun to receive distributions under an annuity option (not including an interest only option), the remaining Policy value will continue to be distributed to your designated beneficiary according to the terms of the elected options, provided that method satisfies IRC requirements. If you die before your entire interest in the Policy is distributed, your entire interest in your Roth IRA generally must be distributed no later than the end of the fifth calendar year after your death occurs ("five-year payout rule"). Your designated beneficiary may elect to Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. - B:4- Tax Qualified Plan Disclosures receive distributions over a period not longer than his or her life expectancy, if the election is made and distributions begin on or before the end of the year following the year of your death. Otherwise, the entire benefit must be paid under the five-year payout rule. *** If the designated beneficiary is your surviving spouse, the spouse may elect to treat the Roth IRA as his or her own. Rollovers and Conversions You may roll over any amount from an existing Roth IRA to another Roth IRA. Under certain circumstances, you may also convert an existing Regular IRA to a Roth IRA. You can roll over distributions from a Regular IRA to a Roth IRA if your AGI is $100,000 or less and you convert such amounts within 60 days after distribution. Note that contributions to a Roth IRA are not deductible and income limits apply. There may be additional income tax consequences upon such a conversion. You will have excess contributions if the amount you convert to a Roth IRA plus your contributions to all of your IRAs exceed your IRA contribution limits for the year. To avoid the 6% excise tax on excess contributions, you must withdraw the excess contributions plus earnings before your tax return due date or recharacterize the contribution, if permitted. Consult your financial adviser to determine other considerations when converting a Regular IRA to a Roth IRA. Recharacterization You may correct an IRA contribution or conversion by recharacterizing your contribution or conversion. For example, you may have converted from a Regular IRA to a Roth IRA and learn later you were not eligible to make the conversion. You may accomplish a recharacterization by making a trustee-to-trustee transfer (including any net income attributable to the contribution) from the first IRA to the second IRA, on or before your tax return due date for reporting the contribution to the first IRA. Once the transfer is made, the election is irrevocable. Recharacterizing a contribution treats it as contributed to the second IRA on the same date as initially contributed to the first IRA. If you elect to recharacterize a contribution, you must report it on your Federal income tax return as made to the second IRA, instead of the first. Consult your tax adviser before recharacterizing a contribution. GENERAL INFORMATION AND RESTRICTIONS FOR ALL IRAS Lump Sum Distribution If you decide to receive the entire value of your IRA Plan in one lump sum, the full amount is taxable when received (except as to non-deductible contributions in a Regular IRA or as to "qualified distributions" from a Roth IRA), and is not eligible for the special 5 or 10 year averaging tax rules under IRC Section 402 on lump sum distributions which may be available for other types of Qualified Retirement Plans. Nontransferability You may not transfer, assign or sell your IRA to anyone (except in the case of transfer incident to divorce). Nonforfeitability The value of your IRA belongs to you at all times, without risk of forfeiture. Loans and Prohibited Transactions If you engage in a so-called prohibited transaction as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, your IRA will be disqualified and the entire taxable balance in your Regular IRA account, and the amount of earnings or gains in your Roth IRA account, will be taxed as ordinary income in the year of the transaction. You may also have to pay the 10% penalty tax. For example, IRAs do not permit loans. You may not borrow from your IRA (including Roth IRAs) or pledge it as security for a loan. A loan would disqualify your entire IRA and be treated as a distribution. It would be includable in your taxable income in the year of violation and subject to the 10% penalty tax on premature distributions. A pledge of your IRA as security for a loan would cause a constructive distribution of the portion pledged and also be subject to the 10% penalty tax. Financial Disclosure Contributions to your IRA will be invested in a variable annuity Policy. The variable annuity Policy, its operation, and all related fees and expenses are explained in detail in the prospectus to which this Disclosure Statement is attached. Growth in the value of your variable annuity Policy IRA cannot be guaranteed or projected. The income and expenses of your variable annuity Policy will affect the value of your IRA. Dividends from net income earned are reduced by investment advisory fees and also by certain other costs. For an explanation of these fees and other costs, please refer to this prospectus. STATUS OF OUR IRA PLAN We may, but are not obligated to, seek IRS approval of your Regular IRA or Roth IRA form. Approval by the IRS is optional to us as the issuer. Approval by the IRS is to form only and does not represent a determination of the merits of the Regular IRA or Roth IRA. ***See Note, page B:2.

CALCULATION OF PERFORMANCE When we advertise performance for a Subaccount (except any money market Subaccount), we will include quotations of standardized average annual total return to facilitate comparison with standardized average annual total return advertised by other variable annuity separate accounts. Standardized average annual total return for a Subaccount will be shown for periods beginning on the date the Subaccount first invested in a corresponding series fund portfolio. We will calculate standardized average annual total return according to the standard methods prescribed by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). We report average annual total return information via Internet and periodic printed reports. Average annual total return quotations on our Internet Web Site will be current as of the previous Business Day. Printed average annual total return information may be current to the last Business Day of the previous calendar week, month, or quarter preceding the date on which a report is submitted for publication. Both standardized average annual total return quotations and non-standardized total return quotations will cover at least periods of one, five, and ten years, or a period covering the time the Subaccount has been in existence, if it has not been in existence for one of the prescribed periods. If the corresponding series fund portfolio has been in existence for longer than the Subaccount, the non-standardized total return quotations will show the investment performance the Subaccount would have achieved (reduced by the applicable charges) had it been invested in the series fund portfolio for the period quoted; this is referred to as "adjusted historical" performance reporting. Standardized average annual total return is not available for periods before the Subaccount was in existence. Quotations of standardized average annual total return and non-standardized total return are based on historical earnings and will fluctuate. Any quotation of performance should not be considered a guarantee of future performance. Factors affecting the performance of a Subaccount and its corresponding series fund portfolio include Ameritas No-Load Variable Annuity 6150 Statement of Additional Information SAI: 2 general market conditions, operating expenses and investment management. An Owner's withdrawal value upon surrender of a Policy may be more or less than the premium invested in the Policy. Standardized Performance Reporting Standardized average annual total return for a specific period is calculated by taking a hypothetical $1,000 investment in a Subaccount at the offering on the first day of the period ("initial investment"), and computing the ending redeemable value ("redeemable value") of that investment at the end of the period. The redeemable value is then divided by the initial investment and expressed as a percentage, carried to at least the nearest hundredth of a percent. Standardized average annual total return is annualized and reflects the deduction of the current mortality and expense fee and the current annual Policy Fee. No deduction is made for premium taxes which may be assessed by certain states. Non-Standardized Performance Reporting We may also advertise non-standardized total return. Non-standardized total return may assume: (1) the Policy is not surrendered; (2) the Subaccounts have existed for periods other than those required to be presented; (3) current charges are incurred if they are less than the Policy's guaranteed maximum charges; or (4) may differ from standardized average annual total return in other ways disclosed in the table description. Non-standardized total return may also assume a larger initial investment which more closely approximates the size of a typical Policy. For these reasons, non-standardized total returns for a Subaccount are usually higher than standardized total returns for a Subaccount. Yields We may advertise the current annualized yield for a 30-day period for a Subaccount. The annualized yield of a Subaccount refers to the income generated by the Subaccount over a specified 30-day period. Because this yield is annualized, the yield generated by a Subaccount during the 30-day period is assumed to be generated each 30-day period. The yield is computed by dividing the net investment income per Accumulation Unit earned during the period by the price per unit on the last day of the period, according to the following formula: YIELD=2[(a-b+1)(6)-1] Cd Where a=net investment income earned during the period by the portfolio company attributable to shares owned by the Subaccount, b=expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements), c=the average daily number of Accumulation Units outstanding during the period, and d=the maximum offering price per Accumulation Unit on the last day of the period. The yield reflects the base Policy mortality and expense risk fee and administrative expense charge. Net investment income will be determined according to rules established by the SEC. The yield assumes an average Policy size of $75,000. Because of the charges and deductions imposed by the Separate Account, the yield for a Subaccount will be lower than the yield for the corresponding series fund portfolio. The yield on amounts held in the Subaccount normally will fluctuate over time. Therefore, the disclosed yield for any given period is not an indication or representation of future yields or rates of return. A Subaccount's actual yield will be affected by the types and quality of portfolio securities held by the series fund and the series fund's operating expenses. Any current yield quotations of a money market Subaccount, subject to Rule 482 of the Securities Act of 1933, will consist of a seven calendar day historical yield, carried at least to the nearest hundredth of a percent. We may advertise yield for the Subaccount based on different time periods, but we will accompany it with a yield quotation based on a seven-day calendar period. A money market Subaccount's yield will be calculated by determining the net change, exclusive of capital changes, in the value of a hypothetical pre-existing Policy having a balance of one Accumulation Unit at the beginning of the base period, subtracting a hypothetical charge reflecting those Policy deductions stated above, and dividing the net change in Policy value by the value of the Policy at the beginning of the period to obtain a base period return and multiplying the base period return by (365/7). A money market Subaccount's effective yield is computed similarly but includes the effect of assumed compounding on an annualized basis of the current yield quotations of the Subaccount. A money market Subaccount's yield and effective yield will fluctuate daily. Actual yields will depend on factors such as the type of instruments in the series fund's portfolio, portfolio quality and average maturity, changes in interest rates, and the series fund's expenses. Although we determine the Subaccount's yield on the basis of a seven calendar day period, we may use a different time period on occasion. The yield quotes may reflect the expense Ameritas No-Load Variable Annuity 6150 Statement of Additional Information SAI: 3 limitations described in the series fund's prospectus or Statement of Additional Information. There is no assurance that the yields quoted on any given occasion will be maintained for any period of time and there is no guarantee that the net asset values will remain constant. It should be noted that neither a Policy owner's investment in a money market Subaccount nor that Subaccount's investment in the underlying money market series fund portfolio is guaranteed or insured. Yields of other money market funds may not be comparable if a different base or another method of calculation is used. Notwithstanding the preceding statements, Owners will be guaranteed to receive $1.00 net asset value for amounts they had invested in the money market account as of September 19, 2008, subject to the terms of the U.S. Treasury's Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds.

("AIC") The Service Ameritas Investment Corp. ("AIC"), an affiliate of ours, has developed several asset allocation models, each based on different profiles of an investor's willingness to accept investment risk, and marketed exclusively through our Policies as the "Morningstar Asset Allocator" program. AIC periodically (typically annually) evaluates and updates the models. In developing and periodically updating the models, AIC currently relies on the recommendations of Morningstar Associates, LLC. AIC may change the firm it uses, or, may use no independent firm at all. If you choose to subscribe to the Morningstar Asset Allocator program, AIC will serve as your investment adviser for the service solely for purposes of development of the program models and periodic updates of the models. If you choose to subscribe to the Morningstar Asset Allocator program, AIC instructs us to allocate your initial premium (in the case of a new application) or accumulated value, as applicable, to the investment options according to the model you select, to similarly allocate subsequent premium, and to periodically automatically reallocate your accumulated value or premium payments. Your Policy value will be rebalanced quarterly consistent with your selected model. The Morningstar Asset Allocator Models Development of the Morningstar Asset Allocator models is a two-step process. First, an optimization analysis is performed to determine the breakdown of asset classes. Next, after the asset class exposures are known, a determination is made of how available investment options can be used to implement the asset class level allocations. The investment options are selected by evaluating the asset classes represented by the underlying portfolios and combining investment options to arrive at the desired asset class exposure. Investment options are selected in a way intended to optimize potential returns for each model, given a particular level of risk tolerance. This process could, in some cases, result in the inclusion of an investment option in a model based on its specific asset class exposure or other specific optimization factors, even where another investment option may have better historical performance. Periodic Updates of the Models and Notices of Updates Each model is evaluated periodically (generally, annually) to assess whether the combination of investment options within each model should be changed to better seek to optimize the potential return for the level of risk tolerance intended for the model. As a result, each model may change, and the investment options used within a model may change. When your selected model is updated, AIC instructs us to automatically reallocate your accumulated value and any subsequent premium payments in accordance with any changes to the model you have selected. This means the allocation of your accumulated value, and potentially the investment options in which you are invested, will automatically change and your accumulated value and any subsequent premium payments will be automatically Ameritas No-Load Variable Annuity 6150 Statement of Additional Information SAI: 4 reallocated among the investment options in your updated model (independently of the automatic quarterly rebalancing). AIC requires that you give it discretionary investment authority to periodically instruct us to reallocate your accumulated value and any subsequent premium payments in accordance with the updated version of the model you have selected, if you wish to participate in the Morningstar Asset Allocation program. When AIC updates the models, we will send you written notice of the updated models at least 30 days in advance of the date the updated models are to be effective. If you wish to accept the changes in your selected model, you will not need to take any action, as your Policy value and any subsequent premium will be automatically reallocated pursuant to the updated model. If you do not wish to accept the changes to your selected model, you can change to a different model or withdraw from the Morningstar Asset Allocator program. Risks Although asset allocation models are designed to optimize returns given the various levels of risk, there is no assurance that a model portfolio will not lose money or that investment results will not experience volatility. Investment performance of your accumulated value could be better or worse by participating in a Morningstar Asset Allocator model than if you had not participated. A model may perform better or worse than any single investment option or asset class or other combinations of investment options or asset classes. Model performance is dependent upon the performance of the component investment options (and their underlying portfolios). The timing of your investment and the automatic quarterly rebalancing may affect performance. Your accumulated value will fluctuate, and when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Periodic updating of the models can cause the underlying portfolios to incur transaction expenses to raise cash for money flowing out of the portfolios or to buy securities with money flowing into the portfolios. These expenses can adversely affect performance of the pertinent portfolios and the models. AIC, an affiliate of ours, may be subject to competing interests that have the potential to influence its decision making with regard to the models. In addition to its limited role as investment advisor under the Morningstar Asset Allocator program, AIC is also compensated by us as principal underwriter for the Policies. We and AIC may receive revenue sharing from other portfolios that are available as investment options. AIC may have an incentive to use certain portfolios in the models that provide higher revenue sharing or distribution fees. AIC may believe that certain portfolios may benefit from additional assets or could be harmed by redemptions. All our model investment options and their underlying portfolios are analyzed by Morningstar Associates, LLC, an independent analytical firm. Neither AIC nor we dictate to Morningstar the number of portfolios in a model, the percent that any portfolio represents in a model, or which portfolios may be selected (other than to require exclusion of any portfolio that is expected to be liquidated, merged into another portfolio, or otherwise closed). AIC and we believe reliance on recommendations of Morningstar to develop and update the models reduces the potential for AIC and us to be influenced by these competing interests, but there can be no assurance of this. AIC and we are under no obligation to continue the Morningstar Asset Allocator program, or any asset allocation program, and have the right to terminate or change such services at any time.

SEPARATE ACCOUNT LLVA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND FOR EACH OF THE PERIODS IN THE TWO YEARS THEN ENDED AND REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Lincoln, Nebraska We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of each of the subaccounts listed in Note 1 which comprise Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Separate Account LLVA (the "Account") as of December 31, 2008 and the related statements of operations for the period then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the periods in the two years then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods in the five years then ended for each of the subaccounts which comprise the Account. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The subaccounts are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of each of the subaccounts' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned at December 31, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the subaccounts constituting Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Separate Account LLVA as of December 31, 2008, and the results of their operations for the period then ended and changes in their net assets for each of the periods in the two years then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods in the five years then ended for each of the subaccounts which comprise the Account, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Lincoln, Nebraska March 12, 2009 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for variable annuity separate accounts registered as unit investment trusts. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. FS-56 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued INVESTMENTS The assets of the subaccounts are carried at the net asset value of the underlying portfolios, adjusted for the accrual of dividends. The value of the policyowners' units corresponds to the investment in the underlying subaccounts. The availability of investment portfolio and subaccount options may vary between products. Share transactions and security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Income from dividends and gains from realized gain distributions are recorded on the ex-distribution date. Realized gains and losses on the sales of investments represent the difference between the proceeds from sales of investments by the subaccounts and the cost of such shares, which is determined on a weighted average cost basis. ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Effective January 1, 2008, the Account adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The adoption of FAS 157 had no impact on any subaccounts' financial position or results of operations. FAS 157 applies to all assets and liabilities that are measured and reported on a fair value basis and enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The statement requires that each asset and liability carried at fair value be classified into one of the following categories: o Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. o Level 2 - Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. o Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. Each subaccount invests in shares of open-ended mutual funds, which calculate a daily net asset value based on the value of the underlying securities in its portfolios. As a result, and as required by law, shares of open end mutual funds are purchased and redeemed at their quoted daily net asset values as reported by the fund companies at the close of each business day. On that basis, the fair value measurements of all shares held by the Account are reported as Level 1 assets. FEDERAL AND STATE TAXES The operations of the Account form a part of and are taxed with the operations of ALIC. ALIC is taxed as a life insurance company under Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code. Under existing federal income tax law, separate account investment income and capital gains are not taxed to the extent they are applied to increase reserves under a contract issued in connection with the Account. Investment income and realized capital gains and losses on assets of the Account are automatically applied to increase or decrease reserves under the contract. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes or unrecognized tax benefits are reflected in these financial statements. FS-57 3. RELATED PARTIES Affiliates of ALIC provided management, administrative and investment advisory services for the Ameritas, Calvert and Summit subaccounts for a fee. These fees are reflected in the daily value of the underlying portfolio share price. The fee is computed separately for each underlying portfolio on daily average net assets, at an annual rate, as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, as follows: Investment Advisory Management/ Fee Administrative Fee ---------------------- ----------------------- Ameritas: MidCap 0.00800 0.00050 Small Cap 0.00850 0.00050 Core Strategies 0.00750 0.00050 Calvert: Balanced 0.00425 0.00275 International Equity 0.00750 0.00350 Mid Cap 0.00650 0.00250 Social Equity 0.00500 0.00200 Summit: Natural Res 0.00550 0.00100 Zenith 0.00640 0.00100 S&P 500 0.00250 0.00100 On December 12, 2008, Calvert Asset Management Company (CAMCO) consummated a transaction with Summit Investment Partners, Inc., an affiliated entity, whereby CAMCO became the investment advisor to the Summit Mutual Funds, Inc.

5. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The unit value, units, net assets, investment income ratio (Inv. Income Ratio), expense ratio and total return (certain of which are defined below) are included in the following table (amounts have been rounded). Inv. Income Ratio - The Inv. Income Ratio represents the dividend distributions received divided by average daily net assets. This ratio excludes the mortality and expense risk charge and is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund portfolio. FS-61 5. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS, continued Total returns and expense ratios in this disclosure may not be applicable to all policies. Expense Ratio - The Expense Ratio represents the annualized contract expenses of the subccounts for the period indicated and includes only those expenses that are charged through a reduction of the unit value. Included in this category are mortality and expense charges. These fees range between .55 percent and .90 percent (annualized) of net assets, depending on the product selected. Expenses of the underlying fund portfolios and charges made directly to policyowner accounts through the redemption of units are excluded. For this separate account, charges made through the redemption of units ranged up to $25 per policy annually, depending on the product selected. Total Return - The Total Return represents the change in the unit value reported year-to-date, however, subaccounts which commenced during a year, as shown in Note 1, are based on shorter return periods. These percentages do not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units.

FS-88 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND 2007 AND FOR EACH OF THE THREE YEARS IN THE PERIOD ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULES AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Board of Directors Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Lincoln, Nebraska We have audited the accompanying statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus of Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. (the Company), a wholly owned subsidiary of Ameritas Holding Company, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of UNIFI Mutual Holding Company, as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related statutory statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008. 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. The financial statements give retroactive effect to the merger of the Company and LifeRe Insurance Company, which has been accounted for as a statutory merger as described in Note 2 to the financial statements. 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 consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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. As described more fully in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company prepared these financial statements using accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Nebraska, and such practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The effects on such financial statements of the differences between the statutory basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are described in Note 21. In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter discussed in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the financial position of Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008. However, in our opinion, the statutory financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus of Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2008, on the basis of accounting described in Note 1. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Lincoln, Nebraska March 17, 2009 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Nature of Operations, (continued) UCL is an insurance company domiciled in the state of Ohio. UCL's wholly owned subsidiaries include Summit Investment Partners, Inc., an investment advisor (SIP); Carillon Investments, Inc., (prior to June 30, 2006) a broker-dealer (now merged with AIC); PRBA, Inc., the holding company of a pension administration company; Summit Investment Partners, LLC, an investment advisor (liquidated as of July 1, 2007) and Union Central Mortgage Funding, Inc, a mortgage banking business. The Company's insurance operations consist of life and health insurance, annuity, group pension, and retirement contracts. The Company and its subsidiaries operate in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Basis of Presentation The Company's statutory financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Nebraska (the Department). Accounting practices and procedures of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") as prescribed or permitted by the Department comprise a comprehensive basis of accounting ("NAIC SAP") other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The more significant differences are as follows: (a) Investments in bonds are generally carried at amortized cost or fair value based on their NAIC rating, while under GAAP, they are carried at either amortized cost or fair value based on their classification according to the Company's ability and intent to hold or trade the securities; (b) Investments in common stocks are valued as prescribed by the Securities Valuation Office ("SVO") of the NAIC, while under GAAP, common stocks are reported at fair value; (c) Investments in preferred stocks are carried at cost if the NAIC designation is RP3 and P3 or above. Preferred stocks with NAIC designations of RP4 and P4 or below are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Under GAAP, preferred stocks are carried at amortized cost or fair value depending upon the characteristics of the security; (d) Subsidiaries are included as common stock carried under the equity method, with the equity in net income (loss) of subsidiaries credited directly to the Company's unassigned surplus for NAIC SAP, while GAAP requires either consolidation or the equity interest in net income of subsidiaries to be credited to the income statement; (e) Investments in limited partnerships, limited liability companies and joint venture investments are accounted for on the GAAP equity method, while under GAAP, such investments are accounted for at cost or the equity method depending upon ownership percentage and control; (f) Acquisition costs, such as commissions and other costs related to acquiring new business, are expensed as incurred, while under GAAP, they are deferred and amortized to income as premiums are earned or in relation to estimated gross profits; 8 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Basis of Presentation, (continued) (g) NAIC SAP requires an amount be recorded for deferred taxes, however, there are limitations as to the amount of deferred tax assets that may be reported as "admitted assets"; and a federal income tax provision is required on a current basis for the statutory statements of operations; (h) Statutory policy reserves are based on mortality and interest assumptions prescribed or permitted by state statutes, without consideration of withdrawals. Statutory policy reserves generally differ from policy reserves under GAAP, which are based on the Company's estimates of mortality, interest and withdrawals; (i) Asset valuation reserves ("AVR") and interest maintenance reserves ("IMR") are established only in the statutory financial statements; (j) Assets are reported under NAIC SAP at "admitted-asset" value and "non-admitted" assets are excluded through a charge against unassigned surplus, while under GAAP, "non-admitted assets" are reinstated to the balance sheet, net of any valuation allowance; (k) Premium receipts and benefits on universal life-type contracts are recorded as income and expense for statutory purposes. Under GAAP, revenues on universal life-type contracts are comprised of contract charges and fees which are recognized when assessed against the policyowner account balance. Additionally, premium receipts on universal life-type contracts are considered deposits and are recorded as interest-bearing liabilities while benefits are recognized as expenses in excess of the policyowner account balance; (l) Reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses are reported as a reduction of policy reserves, while under GAAP, they are reported as an asset; (m) Comprehensive income and its components are not presented in the statutory financial statements; and (n) Goodwill under GAAP is calculated as the difference between the cost of acquiring the entity and the fair value of the assets received and liabilities assumed. Under NAIC SAP, goodwill is calculated as the difference between the cost of acquiring the entity and the reporting entity's share of the historical book value of the acquired entity; or as the amount that liabilities exceed assets in assumptive reinsurance transactions. However, under NAIC SAP, the amount of goodwill recorded as an "admitted asset" is subject to limitation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with statutory accounting practices requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates susceptible to significant change include reserves, investment valuations, and income taxes. 9 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid securities purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Investments Investments are reported according to valuation procedures prescribed by the NAIC. Bonds not backed by other loans are generally stated at amortized cost using the interest method, except for those with an NAIC designation of 6, which are stated at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Mortgage and asset backed securities are stated at either amortized cost or the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Premiums and discounts on mortgage and asset backed bonds and structured securities are amortized using the retrospective method based on anticipated prepayments at the date of purchase. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from broker dealer survey values or internal estimates. Changes in estimated cash flows from the original purchase assumptions are accounted for using the retrospective method. Preferred stocks are stated at cost when the NAIC designation is RP3 and P3 or above and are stated at lower of cost or fair value when the NAIC designation is RP4 and P4 or lower. Common stocks are generally carried at NAIC fair value, except for Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Topeka common stock which is carried at cost. The change in the stated value is generally recorded as a change in net unrealized losses on investments, a component of unassigned surplus. The Company carries subsidiaries and affiliates as follows: FALIC at audited statutory equity; AFSB, AIC and affiliated mutual funds in which the Company has an interest of 10% or more at the Company's proportionate share of the audited GAAP equity; AIA as non-admitted unaudited GAAP equity (2006 only); and Pathmark at audited GAAP equity with statutory adjustments. Mortgage loans are stated at aggregate carrying value less accrued interest. The Company records a reserve for losses on mortgage loans as part of the AVR. Investments in real estate are stated at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value less encumbrances. The intent to sell a property exists when management has committed to a plan to dispose of the property by sale to an outside party. Short-term investments include all investments whose maturities, at the time of acquisition, are one year or less and are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Loans on insurance contracts are carried at the unpaid principal balances. If the unpaid balance of the loan exceeds the policy reserves, the excess is considered a non-admitted asset. Investments in real estate partnerships, limited liability companies and joint ventures are carried based on the underlying GAAP equity of the investee with unrealized gains and losses reflected in unassigned surplus. Other than temporary impairments of $6,335, $1,078 and $670 were recorded as realized losses during 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. 10 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Investments, (continued) Other investments are primarily an affiliated surplus note, collateral loans, unsecured loans, and low-income housing tax credits carried under the amortized cost method. In 2008, the Company began selling futures contracts to hedge against principal losses on variable annuity contracts with a guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefit rider attached. Futures contracts are a standardized contractual agreement to buy or sell a particular financial instrument at a predetermined price in the future. The gains and losses of futures contracts are derived from the daily movement of the underlying market. These gains and losses are settled in cash through a daily variation margin. The Company sells futures contracts on certain equity indices which expire every 90 days. The Company does not receive cash on the initial sale of the contracts, but will receive or pay cash daily based on the movement of the underlying index. The Company is required to post collateral to the brokering bank. To comply with this requirement, the Company usually posts a short-term treasury bill with the bank. The bank acts as an intermediary to the futures transactions and takes initial margins from both parties to limit the counterparty risk. The collateral is recorded as an asset by the Company included in bonds on the statutory statements of admitted asset, liabilities, and capital and surplus and the book adjusted/carrying value of the collateral recorded at December 31, 2008 is $5,516. Since the futures contracts are not considered an effective hedge, the total variation margin on open contracts is reflected in change in net unrealized gains on investments and totaled $129 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The total variation margin on closed contracts is reflected in net investment income and totaled $2,408 for the year ended December 31, 2008. Investment income consists primarily of interest and dividends. Interest is recognized on an accrual basis and dividends are recorded as earned at the ex-dividend date. Interest income on mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities is determined on the effective yield method based on estimated principal repayments. Accrual of income is suspended for bonds and mortgage loans that are in default or when the receipt of interest payments is in doubt. Realized capital gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis and recorded in operations. Accrued interest more than 180 days past due deemed collectible on mortgage loans in default is non-admitted. All other investment income due and accrued with amounts over 90 days past due is non-admitted. No amount was excluded from unassigned surplus at December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Property Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company provides for depreciation of property and equipment using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Buildings are generally depreciated over forty years. Furniture and fixtures are generally depreciated over three to ten years. Depreciation expense was $3,821, $3,803 and $3,852 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 respectively. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. 11 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- EDP Equipment and Software Electronic data processing ("EDP") equipment and operating and nonoperating software are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the related asset or three years for EDP equipment and operating system software. Depreciation expense for nonoperating system software is computed using the straight-line method over the lesser of its estimated useful life or five years. Costs incurred for the development of internal use software are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the useful lives of the assets or three years. Non-Admitted Assets Certain assets, primarily a portion of deferred tax assets, receivable related to prepaid pension assets, furniture and equipment, nonoperating system software, and negative disallowed interest maintenance reserve are designated as non-admitted under statutory reporting requirements. These assets are excluded from the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus by adjustments to unassigned surplus. Total non-admitted assets were $104,122 and $55,027 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Premiums and Related Commissions Life premiums are recognized as income over the premium paying period of the related policies. Annuity considerations are recognized as income when received. Health premiums are earned ratably over the terms of the related insurance and reinsurance contracts or policies. Consideration received on deposit-type funds, which do not contain any life contingencies, is recorded directly to the related liability. Expenses incurred in connection with acquiring new insurance business, including acquisition costs such as sales commissions, are charged to operations as incurred. Policy Reserves and Deposit-type Funds Life policy reserves provide amounts adequate to discharge estimated future obligations in excess of estimated future premiums on policies in force. Reserves for traditional, flexible premium and commissioned variable life insurance are computed principally by using the Commissioners' Reserve Valuation Method ("CRVM") or the Net Level Premium Method with assumed interest rates and mortality as prescribed by regulatory authorities. Reserves for annuities are calculated using the Commissioners' Annuity Reserve Valuation Method ("CARVM") with appropriate statutory interest and mortality assumptions. Policy reserves include the estimated future obligations for the fixed account options selected by variable life and annuity policyowners; obligations related to variable account options are in the separate accounts. Tabular interest, tabular less actual reserves released and tabular cost for all life contracts are determined based upon statutory regulations. Other policy reserves are established and maintained on the basis of published mortality tables using assumed interest rates and valuation methods as prescribed by the Department. Reserves for deposit-type funds are equal to deposits received and interest credited to the benefit of policyowners, less withdrawals that represent a return to the policyowner. For the determination of tabular interest to deposit-type funds, the valuation interest rate, which varies by issue year, is multiplied by the average funds in force during the year subject to such valuation interest rate. 12 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Reserves for Unpaid Claims The reserves for unpaid group dental and vision claims are estimated using historic claim lags, and then adjusted upward or downward based on the current level of pending/unprocessed claims relative to the historic level of pended/unprocessed claims during the time period used in generating the claim lag factors. The reserves for unpaid claims for group dental and vision insurance includes claims in course of settlement and incurred but not reported claims. Claim adjustment expenses corresponding to the unpaid claims are accounted for by adding an additional load to the reserve for unpaid claims. To the extent the ultimate liability differs from the amounts recorded, such differences are reflected in operations when additional information becomes known. Reserves for unpaid life claims include claims reported and unpaid and claims not yet reported, which is estimated based upon historical experience. As such amounts are necessarily estimates, the ultimate liability will differ from the amount recorded and will be reflected in operations when additional information becomes known. Dividends to Policyowners A portion of the Company's business has been issued on a participating basis. The amount of insurance in force on individual life participating policies was $2,769,840 or 14.1% and $3,549,574 or 17.1% of the individual life policies in force as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The Company distributed dividends in the amount of $10,138, $10,247 and $10,421 to policyowners and did not allocate any additional income to such policyowners for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Accrued Separate Account Transfers Accrued separate account transfers primarily consist of the amount of policyowner account values over modified reserves used in the separate account, such as the use of CARVM and CRVM. Asset Valuation and Interest Maintenance Reserves The AVR is a required appropriation of unassigned surplus to provide for possible losses that may occur on certain investments of the Company. The reserve is computed based on holdings of all investments and realized and unrealized gains and losses, other than those resulting from interest rate changes. Changes in the reserve are charged or credited to unassigned surplus. The IMR is calculated based on the prescribed methods developed by the NAIC. Realized gains and losses, net of tax, resulting from interest rate changes on fixed income investments are deferred and credited to this reserve. These gains and losses are then amortized into investment income over what would have been the remaining years to maturity of the underlying investment. Amortization included in net investment income was $79, $508 and $383 for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Income Taxes The Company files a life/non-life consolidated tax return with UNIFI and UNIFI includible affiliates and is party to a federal income tax allocation agreement. The Company's income tax allocation is based upon a written agreement which generally specifies separate income tax return calculations with current credit for net operating losses and/or credits which are used to reduce the portion of the consolidated income tax liability. 13 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Income Taxes, (continued) The Company is subject to tax-related audits in the normal course of operations. The Company records a contingency for these tax-related matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company reviews its loss contingencies on an ongoing basis to ensure that the Company has appropriate reserves recorded on the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus. These reserves are based on judgment made by management with respect to the likely outcome of these matters. The Company's judgment could change based on new information, Internal Revenue Service examinations and changes in laws or regulations. The statute of limitations, generally, is closed for the Company through December 31, 2002. In 2007, the Internal Revenue Service completed and settled an examination for the federal income tax returns of the Company and Acacia Life and their affiliates for the tax years of 2004 and 2003. The Company's management has determined that the settlement is not material. Separate Accounts The Company issues variable annuities, variable life contracts, and experience-rated group annuities, the assets and liabilities of which are legally segregated and recorded in the accompanying statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus as assets and liabilities of the separate accounts. Absent any contract provision wherein the Company guarantees either a minimum return or account value upon death or annuitization, the net investment experience of the separate account is credited directly to the policyowner and can be positive or negative. Mortality, policy administration and surrender charges to all separate accounts are included in miscellaneous income in the statutory statements of operations. The assets of separate accounts relating to variable annuity, variable life contracts and experience-rated group annuities are carried at fair value and consist primarily of mutual funds held for the benefit of policyowners. Deposits received from, and benefits paid, to separate account policyowners which were invested in the fixed account are recorded as an increase in, or a direct charge to, policy reserves. Investment income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses related to the assets which support the variable annuity, variable life contracts and experience-rated group annuities are not reflected in the Company's statutory statements of operations. Vulnerability due to Certain Concentrations The Company operates in a business environment which is subject to various risks and uncertainties. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk and legal and regulatory changes. Federal legislation has allowed banks and other financial organizations to have greater participation in securities and insurance businesses. This legislation may present an increased level of competition for sales of the Company's products. Furthermore, the market for deferred annuities and interest-sensitive life insurance is enhanced by the tax incentives available under current law. Any legislative changes that lessen these incentives are likely to negatively impact the demand for these products. The demand for life insurance products that are used to address a customer's estate planning needs may be impacted to the extent any legislative changes occur to the current estate tax laws. 14 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Vulnerability due to Certain Concentrations, (continued) During 2008 and 2007, decreased liquidity in certain markets adversely impacted the fair value of the Company's investments, in particular mortgage-backed, asset-backed and corporate bonds. The Company anticipates these conditions will continue over the next year and will continue to evaluate the reasonableness of the fair value of the impacted securities by comparison to alternative market sources along with consideration of credit spreads for similar securities and the characteristics and performance of the underlying collateral. Accounting Pronouncements TREATMENT OF CASH FLOWS WHEN QUANTIFYING CHANGES IN VALUATIONS AND IMPAIRMENTS, AN AMENDMENT TO SSAP No. 43 - LOAN BACKED AND STRUCTURED SECURITIES. STATEMENT OF STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE NO. 98. Effective for quarterly and annual reporting beginning on or after January 1, 2009, the Company will adopt SSAP No. 98, "Treatment of Cash Flows When Quantifying Changes in Valuations and Impairments, an Amendment to SSAP No. 43 - Loan Backed and Structured Securities". This statement establishes statutory accounting principles for impairment analysis and subsequent valuation of loan-backed and structured securities. Under the provisions of SSAP No. 98, structured securities with other than temporary impairments (OTTI) are written down to the securities' fair value, whereas under SSAP No. 43, such OTTI losses would be written down to the sum of the estimated future cash flows. A change resulting from the adoption of this statement shall be accounted for prospectively. The adoption of this statement is not anticipated to have material impact on the financial statements. SETTLEMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR INTERCOMPANY TRANSACTIONS, AN AMENDMENT TO SSAP NO. 25 - ACCOUNTING FOR AND DISCLOSURES ABOUT TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND OTHER RELATED PARTIES. STATEMENT OF STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE NO. 96. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted SSAP No. 96, "Settlement Requirements for Intercompany Transactions, An Amendment to SSAP No. 25 - Accounting for and Disclosures about Transactions with Affiliates and Other Related Parties". This statement required transactions between related parties to be in the form of a written agreement and the agreement must provide for timely settlement of amounts owed. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the financial statements. INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARY, CONTROLLED AND AFFILIATED ENTITIES, A REPLACEMENT OF SSAP NO. 88. STATEMENT OF STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE NO. 97. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted SSAP No. 97, "Investments in Subsidiary, Controlled and Affiliated Entities, A Replacement of SSAP No. 88". This statement provided additional guidance on the audit requirements for subsidiaries. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the financial statements. 15 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (continued) ----------- Accounting Pronouncements, (continued) ACCOUNTING FOR LOW INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDIT PROPERTY INVESTMENTS, STATEMENT OF STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE NO. 93 Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SSAP No. 93, "Accounting for Low Income Housing Tax Credit Property Investments". This statement establishes the valuation method for recording investments in low income housing tax credit properties. As a result, the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle from implementing SSAP No. 93 was a reduction in unassigned surplus of $676 which was comprised of a reduction to other investments of $788 and a reduction to the AVR beginning balance of $112. The Company has up to 7 remaining years of unexpired tax credits and is required to hold these investments for up to 11 years. The prior period has not been restated as it was not permitted by SSAP No. 93. 2. Statutory Merger and Business Combination --------------------------------------------- The Company merged with LifeRe, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, on October 1, 2008.

NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Investments, (continued) ---------------------------- Bonds and Stocks, (continued) The Company regularly reviews its investment portfolio for factors that may indicate that a decline in fair value of an investment is other than temporary. Based on an evaluation of the prospects of the issuers, including, but not limited to, the Company's intentions to sell or ability to hold the investments; the length of time and magnitude of the unrealized loss; and the credit ratings of the issuers of the investments in the above bonds, the Company has concluded that the declines in the fair values of the Company's investments in bonds at December 31, 2008 or 2007 are temporary. For substantially all preferred stocks - unaffiliated and common stocks - unaffiliated securities with an unrealized loss greater than 12 months, such unrealized loss was less than 25% of the Company's carrying value of each preferred stock or common stock security. The Company considers various factors when considering if a decline in the fair value of a preferred stock and common stock security is other than temporary, including but not limited to, the length of time and magnitude of the unrealized loss; the volatility of the investment; analyst recommendations and price targets; opinions of the Company's investment managers; market liquidity; and the Company's intentions to sell or ability to hold the investments. Based on an evaluation of these factors, the Company has concluded that the declines in the fair values of the Company's investments in both unaffiliated preferred stocks and common stocks at December 31, 2008 or 2007 are temporary. During 2008, the Company recorded $8,980 of other than temporary impairments as additional realized loss. The Company's bond and short-term investment portfolios are predominantly comprised of investment grade securities. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, bonds totaling $88,750 and $68,903, respectively, (5.3% and 4.2%, respectively, of the total bond and short-term portfolios) are considered "below investment grade". Securities are classified as "below investment grade" by utilizing rating criteria established by the NAIC. During 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded realized losses for other than temporary impairments on bonds of $36,072, $1,657 and $1,890, respectively. The Company has an exposure to subprime mortgage loans within its total investments in residential mortgage backed securities (RMBS). The Company manages its exposure to subprime mortgage loans in several ways. First, the Company monitors its exposure level to RMBS against defined restrictions prescribed by its Investment Policy. Restrictions include exposure at the aggregate level to RMBS along with exposure to ratings classes and subsectors. Also, the Company continually tracks subprime RMBS for factors including credit performance, rating agency actions, prepayment trends and de-levering. Loans with trends that may indicate underperformance are monitored closely for any further deterioration that may result in action by the Company. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company's total investment in RMBS represents securities with an adjusted cost basis of $44,516 and $66,367 and a fair value of $15,948 and $62,965, respectively. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company's subprime exposure related to subprime RMBS represents securities with an adjusted cost basis of $3,010 and $3,485 and a fair value of $2,640 and $3,600, respectively. 20 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Investments, (continued) ---------------------------- Mortgage Loans The Company invests in mortgage loans collateralized principally by commercial real estate. The maximum and minimum lending rates for mortgage loans issued during 2008 are 6.83% and 5.85%. The maximum percentage of any one loan to the value of security at the time the loan was originated, exclusive of insured, guaranteed or purchase money mortgages, was 75% with the exception of two loans for which the portion exceeding 75% is admitted under investment "basket" provisions. The Company has not included taxes, assessments or other amounts advanced in mortgage loans at December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006. The Company's mortgage loans finance various types of commercial and multi-family residential properties throughout the United States. The geographic distributions of the mortgage loans at December 31, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:
2008 2007 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- California $ 47,082 $ 44,024 Minnesota 31,483 25,363 Ohio 29,074 25,281 Utah 24,036 25,533 Oregon 21,480 16,174 Texas 21,346 21,086 Oklahoma 20,845 21,775 All other states 191,210 191,120 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 386,556 $ 370,356 ===================================================================================================================
At December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company does not have any impaired mortgage loans or interest income on impaired mortgage loans. Interest income on impaired mortgage loans is generally recognized on a cash basis. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments: Bonds and Preferred Stocks-Unaffiliated - The fair values for bonds and preferred stocks are based on quoted market prices, where available. For bonds and preferred stocks not actively traded, fair values are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or internally derived based on expected future cash flows using a current market rate applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of the investments. The fair values of mortgage and asset backed securities are estimated using values obtained from independent pricing services or internally derived based on expected future cash flows using a current market rate applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of the investments. Preferred Stocks-Affiliated - The carrying amounts approximate fair value. Common Stocks - For publicly traded securities and affiliated mutual funds, fair value is obtained from independent pricing services or fund managers. For stock in FHLB carrying amount approximates fair value. Stocks in affiliates carried on the equity method are not included as part of the fair value disclosure. 21 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Investments, (continued) ---------------------------- Fair Value of Financial Instruments, (continued) Mortgage Loans - The fair values for mortgage loans are estimated using discounted cash flow calculations which are based on interest rates currently being offered for similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings, credit quality, and maturity of the investments. Loans that exceed 100% loan-to-value are valued at the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral. Cash and Cash Equivalents, Short-term Investments, Other Investments, and Accrued Investment Income - The carrying amounts for these instruments approximate their fair values due to the short maturity of these investments, except when an instrument becomes other than temporarily impaired and a new cost basis has been recognized. The fair value for these instruments becomes their new cost basis. The fair value of the affiliated surplus note included in other investments was internally derived based on expected future cash flows using a current market rate applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of the note. Loans on Insurance Contracts - The fair values for loans on insurance contracts are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis at interest rates currently offered for similar loans. Loans on insurance contracts with similar characteristics are aggregated for purposes of the calculations. Deposit-Type Funds - Deposit-type funds which do not have fixed maturities are carried at the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Borrowed money - The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. Separate Account Assets and Liabilities - The fair values of separate account assets are based upon net asset values provided by the fund managers. Separate account liabilities are carried at the fair value of the underlying assets. 22 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments Included in various investment related line items in the financial statements are certain financial instruments carried at fair value. Other financial instruments are periodically measured at fair value, such as when impaired, or, for certain bonds and preferred stock when carried at the lower of cost or market. The fair value of an asset is the amount at which that asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair values are based on quoted market prices when available. When market prices are not available, fair value is generally estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating current market inputs for similar financial instruments with comparable terms and credit quality (matrix pricing). In instances where there is little or no market activity for the same or similar instruments, the Company estimates fair value using methods, models and assumptions that management believes market participants would use to determine a current transaction price. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment which becomes significant with increasingly complex instruments or pricing models. Where appropriate, adjustments are included to reflect the risk inherent in a particular methodology, model or input used. 23 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Investments, (continued) ---------------------------- Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments, (continued) The Company's financial assets carried at fair value have been classified, for disclosure purposes, based on a hierarchy defined by GAAP Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements". The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to fair values determined using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest ranking to fair values determined using methodologies and models with unobservable inputs (Level 3). An asset's classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to its fair value measurement in its entirety. In summary, the levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: o Level 1 - Values are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets accessible at the measurement date. o Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices from those willing to trade in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by market data for the term of the instrument. Such inputs include market interest rates and volatilities, spreads and yield curves. o Level 3 - Certain inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity) and significant to the fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's best estimate of what hypothetical market participants would use to determine a transaction price for the asset at the reporting date. The following table provides information about the Company's assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the SFAS 157 levels described above as of December 31, 2008:
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assets: Common stocks - unaffiliated $ 136,288 $ - $ 6,664 $ 142,952 Common stocks - affiliated 732 - - 732 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subtotal excluding assets related to separate accounts 137,020 - 6,664 143,684 Assets related to separate accounts 2,457,822 - - 2,457,822 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total assets accounted for at fair market value $ 2,594,842 $ - $ 6,664 $ 2,601,506 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fair values and changes in the fair values of separate account assets generally accrue directly to the policyholders and are not included in the Company's revenues and expenses or surplus. The following valuation techniques used to measure the fair values by type of investment in the above table follow: Level 1 - Financial Assets These assets include actively-traded exchange-listed equity securities - unaffiliated and affiliated and mutual funds. Unadjusted quoted prices for these securities are provided to the Company by independent pricing services. Separate account assets in Level 1 include actively-traded institutional and retail mutual fund investments where fair value represent net asset values received from fund managers who stand ready to transact at the quoted values. 24 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, such as certain bonds and preferred stock valued at the lower of cost or fair value, or investments that are impaired during the reporting period and recorded at fair value on the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus at December 31, 2008. The following table summarizes the assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2008 and the total realized/unrealized losses for 2008:

The bonds measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include NAIC 6 designated bonds totaling $474 and impaired bonds totaling $12,739. The preferred stocks recorded at fair value as a non-recurring basis were due to impairments. The $4,022 of bonds classified as Level 3 were valued based on uncorroborated dealer quotes or internal valuation using unobservable inputs. 25 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Benefit Plans ----------------- Defined Benefit Plans The Company participates in a non-contributory defined benefit plan (the Plan or the Pension Plan) sponsored by AHC. The Plan was formerly sponsored by the Company as a non-contributory defined benefit pension plan (Ameritas Plan) covering substantially all employees of the Company. During 2000, the Ameritas Plan was merged with the Acacia Retirement Plan (Acacia Plan), sponsored by Acacia Life. In 2008, the Union Central Employees Pension Plan merged into the UNIFI Pension Plan. Upon the merger of the Ameritas and Acacia Plans, accumulated benefits of the Plan were frozen, and AHC became the Plan sponsor. Accordingly, the Company's prepaid benefit cost was transferred to AHC, and the Company holds a pre-funded pension expense receivable, due from AHC. During 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company paid $5,000 to AHC which in turn contributed the money to the Plan. The balance of the prefunded pension expense receivable was $15,990 and $13,982 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and is a non-admitted asset. While their pension plans were merged, the separate benefit formulas of the pre-merger plans still exist within the Plan and are used to determine the amount of Plan expense to allocate from AHC to the participating companies. The Company incurred pension expense of $2,992, $3,103 and $3,447 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, for its participation in the Plan. The Plan's assets include investments in a deposit administration contract with the Company and a group annuity contract with UCL which include investments in underlying separate accounts. The carrying values of the assets of the Plan were approximately $178,764 and $102,960 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. A portion of the separate accounts' assets are invested in mutual funds which are advised by affiliates of AHC. 31 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Benefit Plans, (continued) ------------------------------ Defined Contribution Plans, (continued) The defined contribution plans' assets also include investments in deposit administration contracts with the Company and UCL which include investments in underlying separate accounts. The carrying values of the assets invested in the defined contribution plans, were approximately $274,498 and $229,191 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. At December 31, 2008, $68,746 was invested in mutual funds which are advised by affiliates of AHC. Postretirement Benefit Plans The Company provides certain health care benefits to retired employees who were hired prior to January 1, 2005. For associates eligible to retire at January 1, 2000, these benefits are a specified percentage of premiums until age 65 and a flat dollar amount thereafter. For associates eligible for retirement after January 1, 2000, benefits will be provided until the associate becomes eligible for Medicare. Employees become eligible for these benefits upon the attainment of age 55, 15 years of service and participation in the Company's medical plan for the immediately preceding five years. In December 2003, the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act) became law. The Act introduces a prescription drug benefit under Medicare (Medicare Part D) as well as a federal subsidy to sponsors of retiree health care benefit plans that provide a benefit that is at least actuarially equivalent to Medicare Part D. The postretirement benefit obligation and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the financial statements and accompanying notes do reflect the effects of the Act on the Plan. In May 2004, additional guidance became available to specific companies who elected deferral and were able to determine if their plans are actuarially equivalent to recognize the impact of the Act no later than the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2004. In January 2005, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services issued the final regulations for the Act including the determination of actuarial equivalence. The Company has determined that its plans are actuarially equivalent. The Company qualified for and elected to receive the 28% federal subsidy on allowable gross prescription drug costs of qualified retirees. The Company received subsidy payments of $20, $77 and $47 in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The measures of benefit obligations and net periodic pension cost reflect effects of the Act. 34 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

Based on this limitation, the Company would be able to pay $70,813 in dividends after December 9, 2009, without prior approval. The Company paid ordinary dividends of $87,000, $0, $0 to AHC, its' parent, in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Additionally due to the merger with LifeRe, the Company paid stock dividends of $0, $500 and $0 and cash dividends of $0, $0 and $500 to LifeRe's then parent company, LifeRe Corporation, in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. Commitments and Contingencies --------------------------------- As a condition of doing business, all states and jurisdictions have adopted laws requiring membership in life and health insurance guaranty funds. Member companies are subject to assessments each year based on life, health or annuity premiums collected in the state. In some states these assessments may be applied against premium taxes. The Company estimated its cost related to past insolvencies and has provided a reserve included in other liabilities of $773 and $526 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and estimated recoveries from premium taxes included in data processing and other admitted assets of $690 and $454 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. From time to time the Company is involved in pending and threatened litigation in the normal course of business in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability, if any, arising from such pending or threatened litigation is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, liquidity or financial position of the Company. The Company had no claims (per claim or claimant) where amounts were paid to settle claims related to extra contractual obligations or bad faith claims resulting from lawsuits during 2008, 2007 and 2006. Securities commitments of $32,003 and $28,275 and mortgage loan and real estate commitments of $38,954 and $23,346 were outstanding for investments to be purchased in subsequent years as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Low income housing tax credit property investment commitments were $3,030 and $442 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. These commitments have been made in the normal course of business and are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Company's exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual notional amount of these commitments. The Company uses the same credit policies and collateral requirements in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Companies operating in the insurance and financial services markets have come under the scrutiny of regulators with respect to market conduct and compliance issues. Under certain circumstances, companies have been held responsible for providing incomplete or misleading sales materials and for replacing existing policies with policies that were less advantageous to the policyowner. The Company monitors its sales materials and enforces compliance procedures to mitigate any exposure to potential litigation. The Company and its life insurance subsidiaries are members of the Insurance Marketplace Standards Association, an organization which advocates ethical market conduct. The Company engaged in securities lending transactions to generate additional income. The program was administered by an authorized financial institution and required 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 fair value of the loaned securities. The Company maintained effective control over all loaned securities and, therefore, continued to report such securities as bonds and common stocks in the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus. The carrying value of bonds loaned as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $0 and $25,744 respectively. The carrying value of common stocks loaned as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $0 and $28,077, respectively. The fair value of cash collateral held was $0 and $56,998 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Due to unprecedented conditions in the short-term credit market, which created disruptions in prime money market funds, the Company exited its securities lending program during September 2008. There was no non-cash collateral on deposit at December 31, 2008 and 2007. 38 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP. NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. Commitments and Contingencies, (continued) ---------------------------------------------- In 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with the FHLB, to enhance investment yields through investment spread strategies and to resolve emergency liquidity needs, if a future need for immediate liquidity would arise. The agreement provides for fixed rate long term advances (lines of credit) up to $20,000 to the Company in return for the purchase of membership stock equal to $1,000. Since 2006, the Company has purchased $3,602 of additional stock as part of this agreement. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had issued $100,000 and $12,000, respectively, of funding agreements with the FHLB. Additional funding of $20,000 is available to the Company. The reserves related are reported in deposit-type funds on the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities, and capital and surplus of $100,238 and $12,018 as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. There is $118,167 and $11,454 of collateral pledged at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, as a result of this agreement. The assets and reserves related to the funding agreements are reported in the general account as the Company's strategy is to increase investment income to the general account from the investment spread strategy. 10.

NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11. Direct Premiums Written ---------------------------- The Company has one third party administrator, HealthPlan Services, Inc., for which direct premiums written exceed 5% of total capital and surplus. This administrator writes group accident and health business, does not have an exclusive contract, and has been granted the authority for underwriting, premium collection, and binding authority. The total amount of direct premiums written is $47,013, $44,846 and $43,922 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company did not have any other third party administrators or any managing general agents that exceeded 5% of total surplus for direct written premiums during these periods. 12. Other Items ---------------- Troubled Debt Restructuring The Company has several long-term bond holdings with restructured terms. The carrying value at December 31, 2008 and 2007, has been written down to $0, whereby the Company recorded no realized capital losses. The Company incurred no amount of commitments to lend additional funds to debtors owing receivables whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructuring. The Company's income recognition policy for interest income on an impaired loan is the cash basis/cost recovery method. Securities on Deposit Securities with a book/adjusted carrying value of $8,792 and $10,112 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, were on deposit with government agencies as required by law in various jurisdictions in which the Company conducts business. Uncollectibility of Assets The Company had admitted assets of $1,952 and $953 at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, in accounts receivable for uninsured plans and included with data processing and other admitted assets on the statutory statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus. The Company routinely assesses the collectibility of these receivables. Based upon Company experience, less than 1% of the balance may become uncollectible and the potential loss is not material to the Company's financial condition. Participating Contracts Effective October 1, 1998 (the Effective Date) the Company formed a closed block (the Closed Block) of policies, under an arrangement approved by the Department, to provide for dividends on policies that were in force on the Effective Date and which were within the classes of individual policies for which the Company had a dividend scale in effect on the Effective Date. The Closed Block was designed to give reasonable assurance to owners of affected policies that the assets will be available to support such policies including maintaining dividend scales in effect at the Effective Date, if the experience underlying such scales continues. The assets, including revenue thereon, will accrue solely to the benefit of the owners of policies included in the block until the block is no longer in effect. 40 AMERITAS LIFE INSURANCE CORP.

NOTES TO THE STATUTORY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008, 2007 AND 2006 (in thousands) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 22. Correction of Errors ------------------------- Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 2006 statutory financial statements, the Company's management determined that there was an error in the calculation of reinsurance assumed reserves and reinsurance ceded premium income on term life products with one reinsurer. As a result, unassigned surplus and net income as reported in the Company's statutory financial statements and its statutory filing with the Department at December 31, 2006 were overstated by $1,292, net of taxes of $696. As the amount is not material to the prior year financial statements, in accordance with SSAP No. 3, "Accounting Changes and Corrections of Errors", it is recorded in unassigned surplus during the year ended December 31, 2007. 23. Subsequent Event --------------------- At the February 2009 Board of Directors meetings, the Company's Board, along with the respective Boards of UNIFI, AHC, and UCL, approved a repositioning between the Company and UCL whereby AHC will transfer the stock of UCL to the Company effective upon the approval of the Department and the Insurance Department of the State of Ohio. In a concurrent event, UCL will request approval to redomesticate from the State of Ohio to the State of Nebraska. After the repositioning, UCL will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company will contribute up to $100 million to UCL as additional paid-in capital to UCL. 47 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULES To the Board of Directors Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Lincoln, Nebraska Our 2008 audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 2008 statutory financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of selected financial data, the supplemental summary investment schedule, and the supplemental investment risks interrogatories as of and for the year ended December 31, 2008 are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic 2008 statutory financial statements. These schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic 2008 statutory financial statements. The effects on these schedules of the differences between the statutory basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, although not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be material. Accordingly, in our opinion, such schedules do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the information shown therein. However, in our opinion, such schedules are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic 2008 statutory financial statements taken as a whole.

Subsidiaries are indicated by indentations. Ownership is 100% by the parent company except as noted. Item 27. Number of Contract Owners As of March 31, 2009, there were 534 qualified contracts and 3,321 non-qualified contracts in the Separate Account. Item 28. Indemnification Ameritas Life Insurance Corp.'s By-laws provide as follows: "The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was, or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or proceeding to the full extent authorized by the laws of Nebraska." Section 21-20,103 of the Nebraska Business Corporation Act, in general, allows a corporation to indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against liability by him or her in connection with an action, suit or proceeding, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In a case of a derivative action, no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the corporation, unless a court in which the action was brought shall determine that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnify for such expenses which the Court shall deem proper. Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by 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. Item 29. Principal Underwriter a) Ameritas Investment Corp. ("AIC"), which serves as the principal underwriter for the variable annuity contracts issued through Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Separate Account LLVA, also serves as the principal underwriter for variable annuity contracts issued through Ameritas Variable Separate Account VA-2, Ameritas Variable Separate Account VA, First Ameritas Variable Annuity Separate Account, and Carillon Account and for variable life insurance contracts issued through Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. Separate Account LLVL, Ameritas Variable Separate Account V, Ameritas Variable Separate Account VL, First Ameritas Variable Life Separate Account, and Carillon Life Account. b) The following table sets forth certain information regarding the officers and directors of the principal underwriter, Ameritas Investment Corp.
