At the Meeting, shareholders of Hartford Value Opportunities HLS Fund, a series of Hartford Series Fund II (the “Acquired Fund”), will be asked to vote on the matters listed in the attached Notice of Special Meeting of Shareholders.  As explained in the enclosed combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus (“Proxy Statement”), the purpose of the Meeting is:  (i) to vote on the proposed Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Plan”) pursuant to which the Acquired Fund will be reorganized into Hartford Value HLS Fund, a series of Hartford Series Fund, Inc.; and (ii) to transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting, or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

Very truly yours,

Robert M. Arena, Jr.

PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO READ THE ENCLOSED PROXY STATEMENT.
HOWEVER, WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO PROVIDE
BRIEF ANSWERS TO SOME QUESTIONS.

Q. 1.	WHAT PROPOSAL ARE SHAREHOLDERS BEING ASKED TO CONSIDER AT THE UPCOMING SPECIAL MEETING?
A. 1.	Shareholders of Hartford Value Opportunities HLS Fund (the “Acquired Fund”), a series of Hartford HLS Series Fund II, Inc. (“Hartford Series Fund II”), are being asked to approve a Reorganization Plan (the “Reorganization Plan”) whereby the Acquired Fund will be reorganized into the Hartford Value HLS Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), a series of Hartford Series Fund, Inc. (the “Reorganization”).
Q. 2.	HOW WILL THE REORGANIZATION BENEFIT THE ACQUIRED FUND AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS?
A. 2.	The reorganization is expected to benefit the Acquired Fund’s shareholders by: (1) addressing the small asset levels and lack of growth of the Acquired Fund by reorganizing it into the Acquiring Fund and creating a larger combined fund, which is anticipated to provide greater opportunities to realize economies of scale; and (2) offering shareholders of the Acquired Fund investment in a fund that provides a similar investment goal with considerable investment overlap.
Q. 3.	WHY ARE SHAREHOLDERS BEING ASKED TO APPROVE THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION INTO THE ACQUIRING FUND?
A. 3.	The Acquired Fund is a series of Hartford Series Fund II. Hartford Series Fund II is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”). The Act requires that the approval of shareholders of the Acquired Fund be obtained in order to effect its reorganization into the Acquiring Fund.
Q. 4.	WHAT IS THE ACQUIRING FUND’S INVESTMENT GOAL
A. 4.	The Acquiring Fund pursues its goal by investing, under normal circumstances, 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations above $2 billion.
Q. 5.	WHO IS THE ADVISER AND SUB-ADVISER OF THE ACQUIRING FUND?
A. 5.	The investment adviser of the Acquiring Fund, HL Investment Advisors, LLC (“HL Advisors”), is also the investment adviser of the Acquired Fund. The Acquiring Fund’s sub-adviser, Wellington Management Company, LLP, is also the sub-adviser of the Acquired Fund.
Q. 6.	WILL THE REORGANIZATION PLAN RESULT IN DIFFERENT EXPENSES FOR SHAREHOLDERS OF THE ACQUIRED FUND?
A. 6.	Yes, the Acquiring Fund has different expenses than the Acquired Fund. The shareholders of the Acquired Fund will be subject to the Acquiring Fund’s fee schedule, meaning that shareholders of the Acquired Fund will experience higher management fees and total net operating expenses as a result of the Reorganization. In addition, the Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Fund have contractual management fee schedules with different breakpoint levels. However, to reduce the effect of the increased shareholder expenses for shareholders of the Acquired Fund, HL Advisors has agreed to reduce the Acquiring Fund’s contractual management fees by five basis points at each breakpoint upon completion of the Reorganization. For a more detailed discussion of the fee schedule, see “Board Considerations” in the enclosed proxy statement.

Q. 7.	WILL THE REORGANIZATION BE CONSIDERED A TAXABLE EVENT FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES?
A. 7.	It is anticipated that the reorganization will qualify for Federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, pursuant to this treatment, neither the Acquired Fund, the Acquiring Fund, nor the shareholders are expected to recognize any gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes from the transaction contemplated by the Reorganization Plan.
Q. 8.	HAS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVED THE REORGANIZATION PLAN?
A. 8.	Yes. The Board of Directors, including a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), has reviewed and approved the Reorganization Plan. The Board recommends that you vote FOR the Reorganization Plan.
Q. 9.	HOW CAN I VOTE?
A. 9.	You can vote:
	·By mail: complete and return your proxy card in the enclosed pre-addressed postage-paid envelope.
	·By telephone: call the toll-free number listed on your proxy card and follow the recorded instructions.
	·By internet: log on to the website listed on your proxy card and follow the on-screen instructions.
	Whichever method you choose, please take the time to read the Proxy Statement before you vote.
Q. 10.	WHEN SHOULD I VOTE?
A. 10.	Please vote as soon as possible. You may submit your vote at any time before the date of the shareholder meeting. Representatives of The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. (“The Hartford”) or [Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc.], a firm authorized by The Hartford to assist in the solicitation of proxies, may be contacting you to urge you to vote on this important matter.

NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

A Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) of Hartford Value Opportunities HLS Fund (the “Acquired Fund”), a series of Hartford HLS Series Fund II, Inc. (“Hartford Series Fund II”), will take place on [January 26, 2010] at [  ] Eastern Time at the offices of HL Investment Advisors, LLC (“HL Advisors”), 200 Hopmeadow Street, Simsbury, Connecticut 06089 for the following purposes:

1.To approve a Plan of Reorganization providing for the acquisition of all of the assets and liabilities of the Acquired Fund by Hartford Value HLS Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), a series of Hartford Series Fund, Inc., solely in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Fund, followed by the complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund; and

2.To transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting.

The Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund II recommends that you vote FOR the proposal listed in this Notice.  Shareholders of record of the Acquired Fund on [    ], 2009 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting.

The Acquired Fund issues and sells its shares to separate accounts of certain insurance companies (the “Separate Accounts”) and to qualified retirement plans (the “Retirement Plans”).  The Separate Accounts hold shares of the Acquired Fund, which are vehicles for funding benefits under flexible premium deferred variable annuity contracts or flexible premium variable life insurance contracts that are issued by insurance companies. As the owners of the assets held in the Separate Accounts, the insurance companies, as well as the Retirement Plans, are the shareholders of the Acquired Fund and are entitled to vote their shares.  Pursuant to applicable laws, the insurance companies vote outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund in accordance with instructions received from the owners of the variable annuity and life insurance contracts.  In addition to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund, this Notice is being delivered to variable annuity and life insurance contract owners who do not invest directly in or hold shares of the Acquired Fund, but who, by virtue of their ownership of the contracts, have a beneficial interest in the Acquired Fund as of the Record Date, so that they may instruct the insurance companies how to vote the shares of the Acquired Fund that underlie their contracts.  Retirement Plan fiduciaries should forward the proxy materials (or arrange to have the proxy materials forwarded) to the appropriate plan participants and beneficiaries as required by applicable law and the plan documents governing the plan.

Please read the enclosed Proxy Statement/Prospectus carefully for information concerning the proposal to be placed before the Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.  Additional matters would include only matters that were not anticipated as of the date of the enclosed Proxy Statement.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT.  WHETHER OR NOT YOU EXPECT TO BE PRESENT AT THE MEETING, PLEASE FILL IN, SIGN, DATE, AND MAIL THE ENCLOSED VOTING INSTRUCTION CARD OR PROXY CARD AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE, OR TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE TELEPHONIC OR INTERNET VOTING PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT, IN ORDER TO SAVE ANY FURTHER SOLICITATION EXPENSE.  AN ADDRESSED, POSTAGE-PAID ENVELOPE IS ENCLOSED.

Edward P. Macdonald
Secretary

INTRODUCTION

This Proxy Statement/Prospectus is furnished in connection with a solicitation of proxies made by, and on behalf of, the Board of Directors of Hartford HLS Series Fund II, Inc. (“Hartford Series Fund II”), in connection with the Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) of the Hartford Value Opportunities HLS Fund (the “Acquired Fund”) to be held on [January 26], 2010, at [] Eastern Time, at the offices of HL Investment Advisors, LLC (“HL Advisors”), 200 Hopmeadow Street, Simsbury, Connecticut 06089, and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) of the Meeting.

At a meeting held on August 5, 2009, the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund II approved the Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Plan”) relating to the proposed reorganization of the Acquired Fund, a series of Hartford Series Fund II, into the Hartford Value HLS Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), a series of Hartford Series Fund, Inc. (“Hartford Series Fund”).  The Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Fund are also referred to herein each as a “Fund” and collectively as the “Funds.”  This Proxy Statement/Prospectus provides you with information about this proposed reorganization (the “Value Opportunities Reorganization”).

The approximate mailing date of this Proxy Statement/Prospectus is November [   ], 2009.  The costs of solicitation, including the cost of preparing and mailing the Notice of the Special Meeting and this Proxy Statement/Prospectus, will be paid by HL Advisors, the Funds’ investment adviser.  Representatives of The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. (“The Hartford”) or [Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”)], a firm authorized by The Hartford to assist in the solicitation of proxies and voting instructions, may contact you to solicit your proxy by mail or by telephone.  As the meeting date approaches, certain Contract Owners, as defined below, and shareholders of the Acquired Fund may receive a telephone call from a representative of [Broadridge] if their votes have not yet been received.  Proxies and voting instructions that are obtained telephonically will be recorded in accordance with the procedures described below.  These procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that both the

identity of the Contract Owner or shareholder casting the vote and the voting instructions of the Contract Owner or shareholder are accurately determined.

HL Advisors, the Acquired Funds’ investment adviser, and Hartford Life Insurance Company (“Hartford Life”), the administrator for the Funds, are principally located at 200 Hopmeadow Street, Simsbury, Connecticut 06089.  Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc., 200 Hopmeadow Street, Simsbury, Connecticut 06089, acts as the Funds’ principal underwriter.

This Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which you should retain for future reference, contains important information about the Acquiring Fund that you should know before investing.  A Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) dated [  ], 2009 relating to this Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and containing additional information about the Reorganization Plan and the parties thereto, has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and is incorporated herein by reference.  For a more detailed discussion of the investment objectives, policies, restrictions, and risks of each of the Funds, see the Prospectuses, dated May 1, 2009, and Amended and Restated Combined Statement of Additional Information, dated October 1, 2009, of Hartford Series Fund and Hartford Series Fund II, (File Nos. 333-45431/811-08629 and 033-03920/811-04615, respectively) as supplemented, each of which is incorporated herein by reference and is available, without charge, by calling 1-800-862-6668 or by writing to Hartford HLS Funds, c/o Individual Annuity Services, P.O. Box 5085 Hartford, CT 06102-5085.  Hartford Series Fund’s and Hartford Series Fund II’s annual report dated December 31, 2008 (File Nos. 811-08629 and 811-04615, respectively) also is incorporated herein by reference.

You may also obtain proxy materials, reports, and other information filed by either Hartford Series Fund or Hartford Series Fund II from the SEC’s Public Reference Section (1-202-551-8090) in Washington, D.C., or from the SEC’s internet website at www.sec.gov.  Copies of materials may also be obtained, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request at the following e-mail address: publicinfo@sec.gov, or by writing the SEC’s Public Reference Branch, Office of Consumer Affairs and Information Services, Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.

THE SEC HAS NOT APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THESE SECURITIES, OR DETERMINED THAT THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS IS TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE.  ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

The Acquired Fund issues and sells its shares to separate accounts of various insurance companies (the “Separate Accounts”) and certain qualified retirement plans (the “Retirement Plans”).  The insurance companies and the Retirement Plans are the shareholders of the Acquired Fund.  The Separate Accounts hold shares of the Acquiring Fund, which is a vehicle for funding benefits under flexible premium deferred variable annuity contracts or flexible premium variable life insurance contracts which are issued by the insurance companies.  Each Separate Account has subaccounts, some of which invest in the Funds and certain other mutual funds.  Owners of the variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts issued by these insurance companies (“Contract Owners”) allocate the value of their contracts among these subaccounts.  Although the insurance companies are the owners of the assets held in the Separate Accounts, the Contract Owners may be indirect participants in the Acquired Fund.  Under applicable law, the participating insurance companies provide pass-through voting privileges to the Contract Owners.  Contract Owners are asked to complete a voting instruction card, instructing their respective insurance companies on how to vote the shares in which they are the indirect participants.

If you own shares beneficially through a Retirement Plan, you should contact the plan sponsor, trustee, or other administrator for information regarding your right to provide instructions as to the voting of Fund shares.  If you are a Retirement Plan sponsor, trustee, or other administrator and are authorized to vote shares held by a Retirement Plan, please complete the enclosed proxy card and return it in the enclosed envelope.

2

Contract Owners may revoke their voting instructions at any time until the voting results are announced at the Meeting by either submitting another voting instruction card or submitting prior written notice of their revocation to their respective insurance company.  Shareholders may revoke authority to vote their shares by submitting another proxy or submitting written notice of revocation to the Secretary of Hartford Series Fund II.  Unless revoked, properly executed voting instruction cards or proxy cards that have been returned by Contract Owners or shareholders without instructions will be voted “FOR” the proposal to approve the Reorganization Plan providing for the acquisition of all of the assets and liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund solely in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Fund, followed by the complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund (the “Proposal”).  In instances where choices are specified by the Contract Owners or shareholders in the voting instruction cards or proxy cards, those Contract Owners’ or shareholders’ votes will be voted or the votes will be withheld in accordance with the Contract Owners’ or shareholders’ choices.  Votes of Contract Owners for which no voting instructions are received will be voted by an insurance company in the same proportion as the votes of Contract Owners for which voting instructions are received by such insurance company.  Votes can be cast to approve or disapprove the Proposal.  Abstentions and broker non-votes (proxy cards received by Hartford Series Fund II from brokers or nominees when the broker or nominee has not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote and has no discretion to vote on a particular matter) will be counted as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares is present at the Meeting, and will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Proposal.  So far as the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund II is aware, no matters other than those described in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus will be acted upon at the Meeting.  Should any other matters properly come before the Meeting calling for a vote of shareholders, the persons named as proxies intend to vote upon such matters according to their best judgment.

Contract Owners and shareholders may vote by completing and returning the enclosed voting instruction card or proxy card.  Contract Owners and shareholders may also vote by touchtone telephone or by internet, by following the instructions on the proxy card.  To vote by internet or by telephone, a Contract Owner or shareholder will need the “control number” that appears on the proxy card.  After inputting this number, the Contract Owner or shareholder will be prompted to provide their voting instructions on the Proposal.  Contract Owners and shareholders will have an opportunity to review the voting instructions and make any necessary changes before submitting the voting instructions and terminating the telephone call or internet link.

In all cases where a telephonic proxy or voting instructions are solicited by [Broadridge], the [Broadridge] representative is required to ask for each Contract Owner’s or shareholder’s full name and address, or the zip code or employer identification number, and to confirm that the Contract Owner or shareholder has received the proxy materials in the mail.  If the Contract Owner or shareholder is a corporation or other entity, the [Broadridge] representative is required to ask for the person’s title and for confirmation that the person is authorized to direct the voting of the shares.  If the information solicited agrees with the information previously provided to [Broadridge], then the [Broadridge] representative will explain the proxy voting process, read the Proposal listed on the proxy card and ask for the Contract Owner’s or shareholder’s instructions on the Proposal.  Although the [Broadridge] representative is permitted to answer questions about the process, he or she is not permitted to recommend to the Contract Owner or shareholder how to vote, other than to read any recommendation set forth in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.  The [Broadridge] representative will record the Contract Owner’s or shareholder’s instructions on the card.  Within 72 hours, the Contract Owner or shareholder will be sent a letter or mailgram confirming his or her vote and asking the Contract Owner or shareholder to call the [Broadridge] representative immediately if his or her instructions are not correctly reflected in the confirmation.

Although a Contract Owner’s or shareholder’s vote may be solicited and taken by telephone, each Contract Owner or shareholder will also receive a copy of this Proxy Statement/Prospectus and may vote by mail using the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction card, or by touchtone telephone or the internet as set forth on the voting instruction and proxy cards.  The last proxy vote received in time to be voted, whether by voting instruction card or proxy card, touchtone telephone or internet, will be the vote that is counted and will revoke all previous votes by the Contract Owner or shareholder.

3

Only those shareholders owning shares as of the close of business on [  ], 2009 (the “Record Date”) may vote at the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) of the Meeting.  There were [              ] issued and outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund (consisting of [    ] IA and [    ] IB shares) as of the Record Date.  Each full share outstanding is entitled to one vote, and each fractional share outstanding is entitled to a proportionate share of one vote. As a shareholder, you will not have appraisal rights in connection with the Proposal applicable to you described in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

The presence, either in person or by proxy, of shareholders owning a majority of shares of the Acquired Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting shall constitute a quorum.  Because Hartford Life and its affiliates are the majority shareholders of the Acquired Fund, their presence at the Meeting in person or proxy will meet the quorum requirement.  If a quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve any proposal are not received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of votes.  Because Hartford Life and its affiliates will vote their shares of the Acquired Fund in the same proportion as votes submitted by Contract Owners, it is possible that a small number of Contract Owners can determine the outcome of a matter submitted to shareholders.  In determining whether to adjourn the Meeting, the following factors may be considered:  the nature of the Proposal that is the subject of the Meeting, the percentage of votes actually cast, the percentage of negative votes actually cast, the nature of any further solicitation, and the information to be provided to shareholders with respect to the reasons for the solicitation.  Any adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be voted either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the adjournment. A shareholder vote may be taken for the Proposal in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus prior to any adjournment provided that there is a quorum.  If the Proposal receives a sufficient number of votes for approval prior to any adjournment, the Proposal shall be deemed adopted and shall not require any further shareholder approval at any adjournment or otherwise.

PROPOSAL

APPROVAL OF THE REORGANIZATION PLAN

GENERAL OVERVIEW

At a meeting held on August 5, 2009, the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund II, including a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”)), approved the Reorganization Plan for the proposed reorganization of the Acquired Fund into the Acquiring Fund (the “Value Opportunities Reorganization”).

The Acquired Fund is a series of Hartford Series Fund II.  The Acquiring Fund is a series of Hartford Series Fund.  This Proxy Statement/Prospectus provides you with information about the Reorganization Plan.

If shareholders of the Acquired Fund approve the proposed Value Opportunities Reorganization, the Acquired Fund will transfer all of its assets and liabilities to the Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for shares of the Acquiring Fund.  Following the transfer of its assets and liabilities to the Acquiring Fund in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Fund, the Acquired Fund will distribute to each shareholder his or her portion of shares of the Acquiring Fund it receives in the Value Opportunities Reorganization.  Shareholders of the Acquired Fund will receive either Class IA or Class IB shares of the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of Class IA or Class IB shares of the Acquired Fund held by such shareholder immediately prior to the Value Opportunities Reorganization.  Following the Value Opportunities Reorganization, the Acquired Fund will liquidate.

Because shareholders of the Acquired Fund, are being asked to approve a transaction that will result in such shareholders holding shares of the Acquiring Fund, this document also serves as a prospectus for the Acquiring Fund.

SUMMARY

You should read this entire Proxy Statement/Prospectus carefully.  For additional information, you should consult the Prospectuses, dated May 1, 2009, and Amended and Restated Combined Statement of Additional Information, dated October 1, 2009, of Hartford Series Fund II and Hartford Series Fund (File Nos. 333-45431/811-08629 and 033-03920/811-04615, respectively), as supplemented, and the Reorganization Plan.  A form of the Reorganization Plan is attached hereto as APPENDIX A.

THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION

At a meeting held on August 5, 2009, the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund II and Hartford Series Fund approved the Reorganization Plan with respect to the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund.  Subject to the approval of shareholders of the Acquired Fund, the Reorganization Plan provides for:

· the transfer of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund, in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Fund;

· the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date (as described below);

· the distribution of shares of the Acquiring Fund to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund; and

· the complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund as a series of Hartford Series Fund II.

The Value Opportunities Reorganization is expected to be effective immediately after the close of business on [March 19], 2010, or on a later date as the parties may agree (the “Closing”).  As a result of the Value Opportunities Reorganization, each shareholder of the Acquired Fund will become a shareholder of the Acquiring Fund.  Each shareholder will hold, immediately after the Closing, shares of the same class of the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of the same class of shares of the Acquired Fund held by that shareholder as of the close of business on the date of the Closing.

On August 5, 2009, the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund approved the reorganization of Hartford Equity Income HLS Fund, a series of Hartford Series Fund, into the Acquiring Fund (the “Equity Income Reorganization”).  The Equity Income Reorganization does not require shareholder approval and is not contingent on shareholder approval of the Value Opportunities Reorganization.  The Equity Income Reorganization is expected to occur on or about the close of business on [March 19], 2010 or on such other date as the officers of Hartford Series Fund may determine.

COMPARISON OF INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES, RISKS, AND MANAGEMENT OF THE ACQUIRED FUND AND THE ACQUIRING FUND

The principal investment strategies and risks of the Funds are similar in many respects.  Each Fund is managed by the same investment adviser and sub-adviser.  The charts and summaries below describe the important similarities and differences between the Funds.  There can be no assurance that either the Acquired Fund or the Acquiring Fund will achieve its stated objective.  Each Fund’s investment objective may be changed without approval of the shareholders of the Fund.  There are differences in the investment objectives, principal investment strategies and principal investment risks of the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund, including:

· The Acquiring Fund seeks long-term total return, whereas the Acquired Fund seeks capital appreciation.

6

· The Acquiring Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations above $2 billion.  The Acquired Fund primarily invests in equity securities of companies covering a broad range of industries and market capitalizations.

· The Acquiring Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in the securities of foreign issuer and non-dollar securities, whereas the Acquired Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities of foreign issuers and non-dollar securities.

· The Acquiring Fund employs a “bottom-up” approach to select specific securities from a variety of industries. The Acquired Fund employs a contrarian approach to stock selection.

· In contrast to the Acquiring Fund, investments in the Acquired Fund carry mid-cap stock risk and small-cap stock risk, the risk medium-capitalization and small-capitalization stocks as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the Acquired Fund to underperform funds that focus on other types of stocks.

There are no material differences between the rights of shareholders of the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund.

	ACQUIRED FUND	ACQUIRING FUND
OBJECTIVE	Seeks capital appreciation.	Seeks long-term total return.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES	Under normal circumstances, the fund invests primarily in equity securities of companies covering a broad range of industries and market capitalizations, focusing on securities that Wellington Management believes are undervalued and have the potential for appreciation. The fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities of foreign issuers and non-dollar securities. The fund’s investment strategy employs a contrarian approach to stock selection, favoring securities that appear to be undervalued in the marketplace. The approach uses extensive research to identify stocks of companies whose fundamentals are not adequately reflected in the market price of their securities. Valuation techniques are a key component of the fund’s investment approach. A stock is evaluated on three primary criteria: its price-to-earnings ratio, the issuer’s earnings power, and its growth potential. Stocks are selected whose issuers, in Wellington Management’s opinion, have the most compelling blend of the following attributes: ·attractive valuation, ·a strong management team, and ·strong industry position.	Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations above $2 billion. The fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in the securities of foreign issuers and non-dollar securities. The fund employs what is often called a “bottom-up” approach, which is the use of fundamental analysis to select specific securities from a variety of industries. The approach focuses on companies with market capitalizations generally above $2 billion that have below-average estimated price-to-earnings ratios. Fundamental analysis of a company involves the assessment of such factors as its business environment, management quality, balance sheet, income statement, anticipated earnings, revenues and dividends, and other related measures or indicators of value. The typical purchase candidate may be characterized as an overlooked or misunderstood company with sound fundamentals. Holdings are frequently in viable, growing businesses with solid financial strength in industries that are temporarily out of favor and under-researched by institutions. Purchase candidates provide the potential for above-average total returns and sell at below-average estimated price-to-earnings multiples. Portfolio construction is driven primarily by security selection. Limited consideration is given to economic analysis in establishing sector and industry weightings.

Stock Market Risk	X	X

Foreign Investments Risk — Investments in foreign securities are subject to special risks and may be riskier than investments in U.S. securities. Foreign investments may be affected by the following: changes in currency rates; changes in foreign or U.S. law or restrictions applicable to such investments and in exchange control regulations; decreased liquidity; substantially less volume on foreign stock markets and other securities markets; higher commissions and dealer mark-ups; inefficiencies in certain foreign clearance and settlement procedures that could result in an inability to execute transactions; less uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards; less publicly available information about a foreign issuer or borrower; less government regulation; unfavorable foreign tax laws; political or social instability or diplomatic developments in a foreign country and differences in individual foreign economies.

Investment Strategy Risk - The sub-adviser’s investment strategy will influence performance significantly. If the sub-adviser’s strategy does not perform as expected, the fund could underperform its peers or lose money.

Large-Cap Stock Risk - Large-capitalization stocks as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the fund to underperform funds that focus on other types of stocks.

Mid-Cap Stock Risk - Medium-capitalization stocks as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the fund to underperform funds that focus on other types of stocks. Stocks of mid-sized companies may be more risky than stocks of larger companies. These companies may be young and have limited operating or business history. Because these businesses frequently rely on narrow product lines and niche markets, they can suffer severely from isolated business setbacks.

Risk of Loss - When you sell your shares they may be worth more or less than what you paid for them, which means that you could lose money as a result of your investment.

Small-Cap Stock Risk - Small-capitalization stocks as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the fund to underperform funds that focus on other types of stocks. Stocks of smaller companies may be more risky than stocks of larger companies. Many of these companies are young and have limited operating or business history. Because these businesses frequently rely on narrow product lines and niche markets, they can suffer severely from isolated business setbacks.

Stock Market Risk - Refers to the risk that stocks may decline in value due to the activities and financial prospects of individual companies or to general market and economic movements and trends.

8

Value Orientation Risk - Following a value orientation towards selecting investments entails special risks, particularly if used as part of a “contrarian” approach to evaluating issuers. Overlooked or otherwise undervalued securities entail a significant risk of never attaining their potential value.

REASONS FOR THE REORGANIZATION

The Value Opportunities Reorganization is being proposed for several reasons. The Value Opportunities Reorganization is being proposed as a solution to address the small asset levels and lack of growth of the Acquired Fund. The Acquired Fund has experienced a steady outflow of assets which is expected to continue given that the Acquired Fund is no longer being offered through Hartford Life’s annuity platform.  With an outflow of Acquired Fund assets expected to continue and it being unlikely that the Acquired Fund will attract positive asset flows and experience increased assets, the Value Opportunities Reorganization is anticipated to provide opportunities to grow in asset size and realize greater economies of scale. In addition, the Value Opportunities Reorganization is being proposed to offer shareholders of

9

the Acquired Fund investment in a fund that provides a similar investment goal with considerable investment overlap, as well as stronger performance over the trailing 3 and 5 year periods.

HL Advisors, the Fund’s investment adviser, will bear all costs associated with the Value Opportunities Reorganization, except for brokerage fees and brokerage expenses associated with portfolio transactions.

Approval of the Reorganization Plan requires the affirmative vote of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of the Acquired Fund, which means the lesser of (a) the vote of 67% or more of the shares that are present at the Meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy, or (b) the vote of more than 50% of the Acquired Fund’s outstanding shares.  In the event that the shareholders of the Acquired Fund do not approve the Reorganization Plan, the Acquired Fund will continue to operate as a separate entity, and the Board of Directors that oversees the Acquired Fund will determine what further action, if any, to take.

AFTER CAREFUL CONSIDERATION, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF HARTFORD SERIES FUND II UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE REORGANIZATION PLAN.  THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION PLAN.

BENEFITS OF THE REORGANIZATION FOR THE ACQUIRED FUND’S SHAREHOLDERS

In considering whether to approve the Reorganization Plan, you should note that:

· The Acquired Fund has investment policies, investment restrictions and a share class structure that is similar in many respects to the investment policies, investment restrictions and share class structure of the Acquiring Fund.

· The Funds have the same investment adviser, HL Advisors, which will continue to oversee the investment program of the Acquiring Fund and the performance of Wellington Management Company, LLP (“Wellington Management”) the Acquired Fund’s and the Acquiring Fund’s sub-adviser, after consummation of the Value Opportunities Reorganization.

· The Acquiring Fund is the larger fund (approximately $273.5 million in assets versus $256.9 million in assets for the Acquired Fund, as of June 30, 2009).

· The Acquired Fund is no longer offered within Hartford Life’s individual annuity and life insurance products. However, the Acquiring Fund will continue to be offered within Hartford Life’s individual annuity and life insurance products, which leads to greater opportunities for growth and economies of scale than the Acquired Fund.

· The share purchase and redemption provisions for each Fund are the same.  For additional information on purchase and redemption provisions, see “More Information Regarding the Acquiring Fund.”

· The Funds anticipate that the Value Opportunities Reorganization will be considered a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  As such, shareholders of the Funds are not expected to recognize gain or loss as a result of the Value Opportunities Reorganization.  See “Information About the Reorganization - Tax Considerations.”

COMPARISON OF FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE ACQUIRED FUND AND THE ACQUIRING FUND

The following describes and compares the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of each Fund.  It is anticipated that combining the Funds in the manner proposed in the Reorganization Plan may permit shareholders of the Acquiring Fund greater opportunities to realize economies of scale.  For further information on the fees and expenses of the Acquiring Fund, please see “More Information Regarding the Acquiring Fund” in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

OPERATING EXPENSES

The current expenses of each Fund and estimated PRO FORMA expenses after giving effect to the proposed Value Opportunities Reorganization are shown in the table below.  The current expenses of each Fund are based on expenses incurred over the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2009.  PRO FORMA fees and expenses show estimated fees and expenses of the Acquiring Fund after giving effect to the proposed Value Opportunities Reorganization as of [June 30, 2009].  PRO FORMA numbers are estimated in good faith and are hypothetical. The table below does not reflect expenses and charges that are, or may be, imposed under your variable life insurance or variable annuity contracts or by a qualified retirement plan. For information on these charges, please refer to the applicable prospectus, prospectus summary or disclosure statement of your variable insurance contracts.

EXAMPLE

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in each of the Funds and in the Acquiring Fund (following completion of the Value Opportunities Reorganization) on a PRO FORMA basis.  The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year, that each Fund’s operating expenses remain the same, and that you reinvest all dividends and distributions. Because no sales charges apply to the Class IA shares or Class IB shares, you would have the same expenses whether or not you redeemed your shares. The examples do not take into account fees and expenses that will be applied at the variable life insurance or variable annuity contract level or by a qualified retirement plan. Overall expenses would be higher if the fees applied at the separate account level were reflected. Your actual costs may be higher or lower. Thus, based on these assumptions, for every $10,000 invested in each of the Funds and in the Acquiring Fund (following completion of the Value Opportunities Reorganization), here is how much you would pay in total expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated:

Class IA

	1 Year		3 Years		5 Years		10 Years
HARTFORD VALUE OPPORTUNITIES HLS FUND	$	66	$	208	$	362	$	810

MANAGEMENT AND PERFORMANCE OF THE ACQUIRING FUND

THE INVESTMENT ADVISER AND SUB-ADVISER

HL Advisors has overall responsibility for the management of the Acquiring Fund pursuant to an advisory agreement effective on or about August 28, 2002.  For such services, the Acquiring Fund pays an investment advisory fee to HL Advisors and an administrative fee to Hartford Life, monthly at the annual rate of:

AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS	ANNUAL RATE
First $250 million	0.8250	%
Next $250 million	0.7750	%
Next $500 million	0.7250	%
Next $4 billion	0.6750	%
Next $5 billion	0.6725	%
Amount Over $10 billion	0.6700	%

Upon completion of the Value Opportunities Reorganization, the advisory fee paid to HL Advisors and administrative fee paid to Hartford Life will be reduced by five basis points at each breakpoint resulting in the following fee schedule:

AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS	ANNUAL RATE
First $250 million	0.7750	%
Next $250 million	0.7250	%
Next $500 million	0.6750	%
Next $4 billion	0.6250	%
Next $5 billion	0.6225	%
Amount Over $10 billion	0.6200	%

For more information about HL Advisors, see “More Information Regarding the Acquiring Fund - Investment Advisory Arrangements” below.

HL Advisors has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with Wellington Management to provide investment advisory services to the Acquiring Fund on or about August 28, 2002 (the “Agreement”).  As of June 30, 2009, Wellington Management had approximately $448 billion in assets under management.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Wellington Management furnishes investment advisory, statistical and research facilities, supervises and arranges for the purchase and sale of securities on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, and provides for the compilation and maintenance of records pertaining to such investment advisory services, subject to the control and supervision of the Board and HL Advisors.  For such services, the Acquiring Fund pays Wellington Management an investment sub-advisory fee monthly at the annual rate of 0.350% of the first $50 million; 0.275% of the next $100 million; 0.225% of the next $350 million; 0.200% of the next $500 million and 0.175% of assets over $1 billion.

The following individuals have responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Acquiring Fund:

Karen H. Grimes, CFA, Senior Vice President and Equity Portfolio Manager of Wellington Management, has served as portfolio manager for the Acquiring Fund since 2007 and for clients of the firm for at least the past five years. Ms. Grimes joined Wellington Management as an investment professional in 1995.

W. Michael Reckmeyer, III, CFA, Senior Vice President and Equity Portfolio Manager of Wellington Management, has been involved in portfolio management and securities analysis for the Acquiring Fund since 2007 and for

13

clients of the firm for at least the past five years. Mr. Reckmeyer joined Wellington Management as an investment professional in 1994.

Ian R. Link, CFA, Vice President and Equity Portfolio Manager of Wellington Management, has been involved in portfolio management and securities analysis for the Acquiring Fund since 2007 and for clients of the firm for the past three years. Mr. Link joined Wellington Management as an investment professional in 2006. Prior to joining Wellington Management, Mr. Link was an investment professional with Deutsche Asset Management (2004 – 2006).

The Acquiring Fund’s SAI provides additional information about the portfolio managers’ compensation, other accounts managed by the portfolio managers, and the portfolio managers’ ownership of securities in the Acquiring Fund.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

Under normal circumstances, the Acquiring Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations above $2 billion. The fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in the securities of foreign issuers and non-dollar securities.

The fund employs what is often called a “bottom-up” approach, which is the use of fundamental analysis to select specific securities from a variety of industries. The approach focuses on companies with market capitalizations generally above $2 billion that have below-average estimated price-to-earnings ratios. Fundamental analysis of a company involves the assessment of such factors as its business environment, management quality, balance sheet, income statement, anticipated earnings, revenues and dividends, and other related measures or indicators of value. The typical purchase candidate may be characterized as an overlooked or misunderstood company with sound fundamentals. Holdings are frequently in viable, growing businesses with solid financial strength in industries that are temporarily out of favor and under-researched by institutions. Purchase candidates provide the potential for above-average total returns and sell at below-average estimated price-to-earnings multiples. Portfolio construction is driven primarily by security selection. Limited consideration is given to economic analysis in establishing sector and industry weightings.

PERFORMANCE OF THE ACQUIRED FUND AND ACQUIRING FUND

The bar charts and tables below indicate the risks of investing in the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund.  The bar charts show how the Funds’ total returns have varied from year to year, while the tables show how the Funds’ performance over time compares to that of a broad-based market index.

The annual return variability of each Fund’s Class IB shares for the periods presented in the bar chart would have been substantially similar to that shown for Class IA shares because all of the Fund’s shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities.  The actual returns of the Class IB shares for the periods presented in the bar chart would have been different than the annual return shown for the Fund’s Class IA shares because of differences in the expenses borne by each class of shares.

These figures do not include the effect of sales charges or other fees which may be applied at the variable life insurance, variable annuity, or qualified retirement plan product level.  Any such additional sales charges or other fees will lower each Fund’s performance.  All figures assume that all dividends and distributions were reinvested.  Keep in mind that past performance does not indicate future results.  Performance for periods when fee waivers were in place would have been lower in the absence of the waivers.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REORGANIZATION

THE REORGANIZATION PLAN

The Reorganization Plan provides for the transfer of all of the assets and liabilities of the Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund solely in exchange for corresponding Class IA or Class IB shares of the Acquiring Fund.  The Acquired Fund will distribute the shares of the Acquiring Fund received in the exchange to its shareholders, and then the Acquired Fund will be liquidated.

After the Value Opportunities Reorganization, each shareholder of the Acquired Fund will own shares in the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of shares of the Acquired Fund held by that shareholder as of the close of business on the business day preceding the Closing.

16

Generally, the liquidation and distribution will be accomplished by opening accounts on the books of the Acquiring Fund in the names of the shareholders of the Acquired Fund and transferring to those shareholders’ accounts the same class shares representing such shareholders’ interests previously credited to the accounts of the Acquired Fund.  No sales charges or fees of any kind will be charged to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund in connection with their receipt of shares of the Acquiring Fund in the Value Opportunities Reorganization.

Until the Closing, shareholders of the Acquired Fund will continue to be able to redeem their shares.  Redemption requests received after the Closing will be treated as requests for the redemption of Acquiring Fund shares received by the shareholder in the Value Opportunities Reorganization.

The obligations of the Funds under the Reorganization Plan are subject to various conditions, including approval of the shareholders of the Acquired Fund.  The Reorganization Plan also requires that the Funds take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Plan.  The Reorganization Plan may be amended or terminated by mutual agreement of the parties or on certain other grounds.  For a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Value Opportunities Reorganization, see the Form of Agreement and Plan of Reorganization at APPENDIX A, which qualifies in its entirety the foregoing summary of the Reorganization Plan.

TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The Value Opportunities Reorganization is intended to qualify for Federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Code.  Accordingly, pursuant to this treatment, neither the Acquired Fund, the Acquiring Fund, nor the shareholders are expected to recognize any gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes from the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Plan.  As a condition to the Closing, the Funds will receive an opinion from the law firm of Dechert LLP to the effect that the Value Opportunities Reorganization will qualify as a tax-free reorganization for Federal income tax purposes.  That opinion will be based in part upon certain assumptions and upon certain representations made by the Funds.

EXPENSES OF THE REORGANIZATION

HL Advisors will bear all of the expenses relating to the Value Opportunities Reorganization, except brokerage fees and any brokerage expenses associated with the portfolio transactions.  The costs of the Value Opportunities Reorganization include, but are not limited to, costs associated with preparation of the Acquiring Fund’s registration statement, printing and distributing the Acquiring Fund’s prospectus and the Acquired Fund’s proxy materials, legal fees, accounting fees, securities registration fees, and expenses of holding the Meeting.

BOARD CONSIDERATIONS

The proposed Value Opportunities Reorganization was presented to the Board of Directors of each of Hartford Series Fund II and Hartford Series Fund (each a “Company” and collectively, the “Companies”) for consideration and approval at a meeting held on August 5, 2009.  For the reasons discussed below, the Directors, including a majority of the Directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the Act) (the “Independent Directors”), of the Companies determined that the interests of the shareholders of the respective Funds would not be diluted as a result of the proposed Value Opportunities Reorganization, and that the proposed Value Opportunities Reorganization was in the best interests of each of the Funds and its shareholders.

The Boards of Directors of the Companies, in recommending approval of the Reorganization Plan, considered a number of factors, including the following:

·The relative growth in assets of the Funds and the anticipated inability of the Acquired Fund to achieve satisfactory asset growth as projected by management. As of June 30, 2009, the assets of the

17

Acquired Fund were $256.9 million, whereas, the assets of the Acquiring Fund were $273.5 million. Upon completion of the Value Opportunities Reorganization and the Equity Income Reorganization, the resulting combined fund will have assets of $529.3 million based on assets as of June 30, 2009.

·The Funds have similar investment mandates, but different portfolio management teams and investment processes.  The Acquired Fund is managed by a team at Wellington Management, which invests within a ‘value’ investment philosophy and focuses on a contrarian approach to stock selection using fundamental analysis.  The Acquiring Fund is managed by a separate team at Wellington Management, which also invests within a ‘value’ investment philosophy but focuses on a total return approach to stock selection using fundamental analysis.

·The Funds have the same investment adviser, HL Advisors, which will continue to oversee the investment program of the Funds and the performance of Wellington Management, each of the Fund’s sub-adviser, after consummation of the Value Opportunities Reorganization.

·Shareholders of the Acquired Fund will be subject to the Acquiring Fund’s fee schedule, meaning that shareholders of the Acquired Fund will experience higher management fees and total net operating expenses as a result of the Value Opportunities Reorganization.  In addition, the Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Fund have contractual management fee schedules with different breakpoint levels. The Acquired Fund is subject to a fee schedule with breakpoints at $100 million, $5 billion and $10 billion, whereas, the Acquiring Fund is subject to a fee schedule with breakpoints at $250 million, $500 million, $1 billion, $5 billion and $10 billion.  However, to reduce the effect of the increased shareholder expenses for shareholders of the Acquired Fund, HL Advisors has agreed to reduce the Acquiring Fund’s contractual management fees by five basis points at each breakpoint upon completion of the Value Opportunities Reorganization.  Also, shareholders of the Acquired Fund will benefit from a larger fund with a similar investment goal and stronger trailing performance over the past 3 and 5 year periods.

·HL Advisors anticipates that effective upon completion of the Equity Income Reorganization and the Value Opportunities Reorganization, if approved, shareholders of the Acquired Fund will be provided with a greater opportunity to realize economies of scale.

·The Funds anticipate that the Value Opportunities Reorganization will be considered a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the Code.  As such, shareholders of the Funds are not expected to recognize gain or loss as a result of the Value Opportunities Reorganization.  See “Information About the Reorganization - Tax Considerations.”

·The share purchase and redemption provisions for the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund are the same.  For additional information on purchase and redemption provisions, see “More Information Regarding the Acquiring Fund.”

·The terms and conditions of the Reorganization Plan.

·That the Reorganization will not dilute the interests of the shareholders of the Funds.

·The costs to be incurred by each Fund and its respective shareholders in connection with the proposed reorganization.

·A contract owner may transfer contract values to other investment options under his or her contract if he or she determines not to invest in the Acquiring Fund.

PROXY SOLICITATION

The principal solicitation of proxies will be by the mailing of this Proxy Statement/Prospectus beginning on or about November [  ], 2009, but proxies may also be solicited from a representative of The Hartford or from our proxy solicitor, [Broadridge].  The estimated cost of retaining [Broadridge] is approximately $[ ].  If we have not received your vote as the date of the Meeting approaches, you may receive a call from these parties to ask for your vote.  Arrangements will be made with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries to forward proxies and proxy materials to their principals.

In all cases where a telephonic proxy or voting instructions are solicited by [Broadridge], the [Broadridge] representative is required to ask for each Contract Owner’s or shareholder’s full name and address, or the zip code or employer identification number, and to confirm that the Contract Owner or shareholder has received the proxy materials in the mail.  If the Contract Owner or shareholder is a corporation or other entity, the [Broadridge] representative is required to ask for the person’s title and for confirmation that the person is authorized to direct the voting of the shares.  If the information solicited agrees with the information previously provided to [Broadridge], then the [Broadridge] representative will explain the proxy voting process, read the Reorganization Plan listed on the proxy card, and ask for the Contract Owner’s or shareholder’s instructions regarding the Reorganization Plan.  Although the [Broadridge] representative is permitted to answer questions about the process, he or she is not permitted to recommend to the Contract Owner or shareholder how to vote, other than to read any recommendation set forth in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.  The [Broadridge] representative will record the Contract Owner’s or shareholder’s instructions on the proxy card.  Within 72 hours, the Contract Owner or shareholder will be sent a letter or mailgram confirming his or her vote and asking the Contract Owner or shareholder to call the [Broadridge] representative immediately if his or her instructions are not correctly reflected in the confirmation.

The cost of the Meeting, including the preparation and mailing of the notice, Proxy Statement/Prospectus and the solicitation of proxies, including reimbursement to broker-dealers and others who forwarded proxy materials to their clients, will be borne by HL Advisors.

VOTE REQUIRED

Approval of the Reorganization Plan requires the affirmative vote of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of the Acquired Fund, which means the lesser of (a) the vote of 67% or more of the shares that are present at the Meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy, or (b) the vote of more than 50% of the Acquired Fund’s outstanding shares.  Assuming the presence of a quorum, abstentions and broker non-votes have the effect of a negative vote on the Value Opportunities Reorganization.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

As a general matter, the Companies do not hold annual meetings of shareholders.  Shareholders wishing to submit a proposal for inclusion in a proxy statement for a subsequent meeting (if any) should send their written proposal to the Secretary of the Hartford Series Fund or Hartford Series Fund II, P.O. Box 2999, Hartford, Connecticut 06104-2999.

Proposals must be received a reasonable time prior to the date of a meeting of shareholders to be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials for the meeting.  Timely submission of a proposal does not, however, necessarily mean that the proposal will be included.  Persons named as proxies for any subsequent shareholders’ meeting will vote in their discretion with respect to proposals submitted on an untimely basis.

MORE INFORMATION REGARDING THE FUNDS

The following information applies to the Funds.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY ARRANGEMENTS

The assets of the Funds are managed by HL Advisors, which selects sub-advisers, which in turn employ portfolio manager(s) in connection with their management of the Funds.  All such advisers to the Funds are supervised by the Board.  You can find additional information about the Companies’ Directors and officers in the their Combined Statement of Additional Information, dated May 1, 2009.  HL Advisors hires sub-advisers to furnish investment advice and recommendations and has entered into sub-advisory agreements with each sub-adviser, including Wellington Management.  The investment adviser also monitors the sub-advisers’ buying and selling of securities and administration of the Funds.  For these services, HL Advisors is paid an advisory fee.  This fee is calculated on the average daily net assets of each Fund, and is paid at the rates previously shown in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

HL Advisors is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc., a Connecticut financial services company.

HL Advisors and/or its affiliates may pay, out of its own resources and not out of fund assets, for distribution and/or administrative services provided by broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries.  See the subsection titled “Additional Compensation to Servicing Institutions and Other Persons (“Servicing Intermediaries”) for Subaccounting, Administrative and/or Shareholder Processing Services” in this section of this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

The Companies rely on an exemptive order from the SEC under which they use a “Manager of Managers” structure.  HL Advisors has responsibility, subject to oversight by the Board, to oversee the sub-advisers and recommend their hiring, termination and replacement.  The exemptive order permits HL Advisors to appoint new sub-advisers, not affiliated with HL Advisors, with the approval of the Board and without obtaining approval from those shareholders and Contract Owners that participate in the applicable fund.  Within 90 days after hiring any new sub-adviser, affected shareholders and Contract Owners will receive information about the new sub-advisory relationship.

PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF HARTFORD HLS FUND SHARES

Hartford HLS Funds may offer their shares to variable annuity and variable life insurance separate accounts of Hartford Life and its affiliates (the “Accounts”) as investment options for certain variable annuity contracts and individual variable life insurance policies, group annuity and group funding agreement contracts and corporate-owned life insurance and other group life insurance policies (collectively, “variable contracts”) issued through the Accounts. The Hartford HLS Funds may also offer their shares to certain qualified retirement plans (the “Plans”).

Each Hartford HLS Fund has authorized two classes of shares: Class IA shares and Class IB shares. For each Hartford HLS Fund, the two classes of shares represent an investment in the same Hartford HLS Fund but are subject to different expenses and have different prices and performance.

Many of the Accounts are registered with the SEC as investment companies. When shares of a Hartford HLS Fund are offered as investment options for variable contracts issued through such an Account, a separate prospectus describing the particular Account and contract will accompany this prospectus. When shares of a Hartford HLS Fund are offered as investment options for variable contracts issued through an Account that is not so registered, a separate disclosure document (rather than a prospectus) describing that Account and contract will accompany this prospectus.

23

Shares of the Hartford HLS Funds are sold by Hartford Securities Distribution Company, Inc. (the “Distributor”) in a continuous offering to the Accounts and the Plans. Net purchase payments under the variable contracts are placed in one or more subaccounts of the Accounts and the assets of each subaccount are invested in the shares of the Hartford HLS Fund corresponding to that subaccount. The Accounts and the Plans purchase and redeem Class IA shares and Class IB shares of the Hartford HLS Funds at net asset value without sales or redemption charges.

For each day on which a Hartford HLS Fund’s net asset value is calculated, the Accounts transmit to the Hartford HLS Fund any orders to purchase or redeem shares of the Hartford HLS Fund based on the net purchase payments, redemption (surrender or withdrawal) requests, and transfer requests from variable contract owners, annuitants and beneficiaries that have been processed by Hartford Life as of that day. Similarly, the Plans transmit to a Hartford HLS Fund any orders to purchase or redeem shares of the Hartford HLS Fund based on the instructions of Plan trustees or participants received by the Plans as of that day. The Accounts and Plans purchase and redeem shares of the Hartford HLS Funds at the next net asset value per share to be calculated after the related orders are received, although such purchases and redemptions may be executed the next morning. Payment for shares redeemed is made within seven days after receipt of notice of redemption, except that payments of redemptions may be postponed beyond seven days when permitted by applicable laws and regulations.

Although they would not normally do so, the Hartford HLS Funds have the right to pay the redemption price of shares of the Hartford HLS Funds in whole or in part in portfolio securities. When portfolio securities received in this fashion are sold, a brokerage charge would be incurred. Any such securities would be valued for the purposes of making such payment at the same value as used in determining net asset value. The Hartford HLS Funds, however, always redeem shares solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net asset value of the applicable Hartford HLS Fund during any 90 day period for any one account.

A potential for certain conflicts exists between the interests of variable annuity contract owners and variable life insurance contract owners invested in a particular Hartford HLS Fund. Likewise, a potential for certain conflicts exists between the interests of owners of variable contracts and those of participants in a Plan that invests in a Hartford HLS Fund. To the extent that such classes of investors are invested in the same Hartford HLS Fund when a conflict of interest arises that might involve the Hartford HLS Fund, one or more of such classes of investors could be disadvantaged. The Hartford HLS Funds currently do not foresee any such conflict or disadvantage to owners of variable contracts or Plan participants. Nonetheless, each Hartford HLS Fund’s Board of Directors will monitor each Hartford HLS Fund for the existence of any irreconcilable material conflicts among or between the interests of various classes of investors. If such a conflict affecting owners of variable contracts is determined to exist, Hartford Life will, to the extent reasonably practicable, take such action as is necessary to remedy or eliminate the conflict. If such a conflict were to occur, one or more Accounts may be required to withdraw its investment in one or more of the Hartford HLS Funds or substitute shares of another Hartford HLS Fund for the current Hartford HLS Fund. This, in turn, could cause a Hartford HLS Fund to sell portfolio securities at a disadvantageous price.

ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION TO SERVICING INSTITUTIONS AND OTHER PERSONS (“SERVICING INTERMEDIARIES”) FOR SUBACCOUNTING, ADMINISTRATIVE AND/OR SHAREHOLDER PROCESSING SERVICES

In addition to the Rule 12b-1 fees paid by the Harford HLS Funds on Class IB shares, the transfer agent and its affiliates pay Servicing Intermediaries compensation for subaccounting, administrative and/or shareholder processing services (“Servicing Payments”). Servicing Payments may act as a financial incentive for a Servicing Intermediary in choosing to provide services to one investment product, such as the Harford HLS Funds, over other products for which it may receive a lower payment. You may contact your Servicing Intermediary if you want additional information regarding any Servicing Payments it receives.

Servicing Payments are generally based on average net assets of the Harford HLS Funds attributable to the

24

Servicing Intermediary. With certain limited exceptions, Servicing Payments are not expected to exceed 0.20% of the average net assets of the Harford HLS Funds attributable to a particular Servicing Intermediary. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the transfer agent accrued approximately $1,950,000 in total Servicing Payments to Servicing Intermediaries and accruals of Servicing Payments did not exceed $850,000 for any Servicing Intermediary.

As of January 1, 2009, the transfer agent has entered into arrangements to pay Servicing Compensation to: ACS HR Solutions, LLC; ADP Broker-Dealer, Inc.; BenefitStreet, Inc.; Ascensus, Inc.; Charles Schwab & Co.; CitiStreet, LLC; Diversified Investment Advisors, Inc.; Edgewood Services, Inc. and Retirement Plan Services Company of America; Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC and National Financial Services LLC; Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc.; GWFS Equities, Inc.; Hewitt Associates, LLC; ICMA Retirement Corporation; ING Financial Advisers LLC and ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company; J.P. Morgan Retirement Plan Services LLC; Lincoln Retirement Services Company, LLC and AMG Service Corp.; Mercer HR Services, LLC; Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated; Mid Atlantic Capital Corp.; Nationwide Retirement Solutions, Inc.; Newport Retirement Services, Inc.; Noble Consulting Services, Inc.; Ohio Public Employees Deferred Compensation Program; Preferred Pension Concepts, Inc.; Princeton Retirement Group; Principal Life Insurance Company; Reliance Trust Company; Standard Retirement Services, Inc.; T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan Services, Inc.; Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America; The 401(k) Company, Inc. (purchased by Charles Schwab & Co.); Charles Schwab Trust Company; The Northern Trust Company; The Retirement Plan Company, LLC; The Vanguard Group, Inc.; US Bank; Wachovia Bank, N.A.; Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.; and Wilmington Trust Company. The transfer agent may enter into arrangements with other Servicing Intermediaries to pay such Servicing Compensation.

CLASS IB SHARES DISTRIBUTION PLAN

Each Company, on behalf of its respective Hartford HLS Fund, has adopted a separate distribution plan (the “Distribution Plan”) for its Class IB shares pursuant to appropriate resolutions of each Company’s board of directors in accordance with the requirements of Rule 12b-1 under the Act and the requirements of the applicable FINRA market conduct rules concerning asset-based sales charges. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, each Hartford HLS Fund compensates the Distributor from assets attributable to the Class IB shares for services rendered and expenses borne in connection with activities primarily intended to result in the sale of the Class IB shares. A portion of the amounts received by the Distributor may be used to defray various costs incurred or paid by the Distributor in connection with the printing and mailing of Hartford HLS Fund prospectuses, the combined statement of additional information, any supplements to those documents and shareholder reports and holding seminars and sales meetings with wholesale and retail sales personnel designed to promote the distribution of Class IB shares. The Distributor may also use the amounts received to provide compensation to financial intermediaries and third-party broker-dealers for their services in connection with the distribution of Class IB shares.

The Distribution Plan provides that each Hartford HLS Fund may pay annually up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Hartford HLS Fund attributable to its Class IB shares for activities primarily intended to result in the sale of Class IB shares. Under the terms of the Distribution Plan and the principal underwriting agreement, each Hartford HLS Fund is authorized to make monthly payments to the Distributor which may be used to pay or reimburse entities, including insurance company affiliates of HL Advisors, providing distribution and shareholder servicing with respect to the Class IB shares for such entities’ fees or expenses incurred or paid in that regard. All or any portion of this fee may be remitted to dealers who provide distribution or shareholder account services.

The Distribution Plan is of a type known as a “compensation” plan because payments are made for services rendered to the Hartford HLS Fund with respect to Class IB shares regardless of the level of expenditures by the Distributor. The Distributor has indicated that it expects its expenditures to include, without limitation: (a) compensation to and expenses, including overhead and telephone expenses, of employees of the distributor engaged in the distribution of the Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund; (b) printing and mailing of prospectuses, the

25

combined statement of additional information, and reports for prospective purchasers of variable contracts investing indirectly in Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund; (c) compensation to financial intermediaries and broker-dealers to pay or reimburse them for their services or expenses in connection with the distribution of variable contracts investing indirectly in Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund; (d) expenses relating to the development, preparation, printing, and mailing of Hartford HLS Fund advertisements, sales literature, and other promotional materials describing and/or relating to the Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund; (e) expenses of holding seminars and sales meetings designed to promote the distribution of the Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund; (f) expenses of obtaining information and providing explanations to variable contract owners regarding Hartford HLS Fund investment objectives and policies and other information about a Hartford HLS Fund, including performance; (g) expenses of training sales personnel regarding the Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund; (h) expenses of compensating sales personnel in connection with the allocation of cash values and premiums of the variable contracts to the Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund; (i) expenses of personal services and/or maintenance of variable contract accounts with respect to Class IB shares of a Hartford HLS Fund attributable to such accounts; and (j) financing any other activity that the Distributor determines is primarily intended to result in the sale of Class IB shares.

The Distribution Plan was adopted by a majority vote of the respective Hartford HLS Fund’s board of directors, including at least a majority of directors who are not interested persons of each Hartford HLS Fund as defined in the Act. The Distribution Plan may be terminated at any time by vote of the majority of the directors who are not interested persons of each Hartford HLS Fund. The Distribution Plan will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment.

The distributor and its affiliates may pay, out of their own assets, compensation to brokers, financial institutions and other persons for the sale and distribution of the Hartford HLS Funds’ shares and/or for the servicing of those shares.

Rule 12b-1 fees have the effect of increasing operating expenses of the Hartford HLS Funds. Because the fees paid by the Hartford HLS Funds under the Distribution Plan are paid out of each Hartford HLS Fund’s assets on an on-going basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of a variable contract owner’s or plan participant’s investment and may cost more than alternative types of charges for the same distribution and investor services.

With respect to the Money Market HLS Fund, at a meeting held on February 4, 2009, the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund approved the temporary reduction of payment of distribution and service fees under the Fund’s 12b-1 Plan of Distribution to zero for Class IB for a period of six months, effective March 1, 2009.  Effective September 1, 2009, the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund approved a six months’ extension of the reduction of payment of distribution and service fees under the Fund’s 12b-1 Plan of Distribution.  The Fund’s actions will result in a corresponding temporary reduction of 12b-1 payments of amounts paid to financial intermediaries by the Fund’s distributor to zero for Class IB during this time period.  The Board’s action can be changed at any time.  The Hartford may be required to pay, out of its own resources, the equivalent of 12b-1 fees to financial intermediaries notwithstanding the reduction of 12b-1 fees.  Since January 2009, the Fund’s distributor has made payments out of its own resources to financial intermediaries equal to the amount of 12b-1 fees that would have been paid notwithstanding the waivers of 12b-1 fees.

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE

The net asset value per share (NAV) is determined for each Hartford HLS Fund and each class as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) (typically 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, referred to as the “Valuation Time”) on each business day that the Exchange is open. The net asset value for each class of shares is determined by dividing the value of that Hartford HLS Fund’s net assets attributable to a class of shares by the number of shares outstanding for that class.

26

Except for the Money Market HLS Fund, the Hartford HLS Funds generally use market prices in valuing portfolio securities. If market prices are not readily available or are deemed unreliable, a Hartford HLS Fund will use the fair value of the security as determined in good faith under policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of that Hartford HLS Fund’s Board of Directors. Market prices may be deemed unreliable, for example, if a security is thinly traded or if an event has occurred after the close of the security’s primary markets, but before the close of the Exchange that is expected to affect the value of the portfolio security. The circumstances in which a Hartford HLS Fund may use fair value pricing include, among others: (i) the occurrence of events that are significant to a particular issuer, such as mergers, restructuring or defaults; (ii) the occurrence of events that are significant to an entire market, such as natural disasters in a particular region or governmental actions; (iii) trading restrictions on securities; (iv) for thinly traded securities and (v) market events such as trading halts and early market closings. In addition, with respect to the valuation of securities primarily traded on foreign markets, each Hartford HLS Fund uses a fair value pricing service approved by that Hartford HLS Fund’s Board of Directors, which employs quantitative models which evaluate changes in the value of the foreign market proxies (for example; futures contracts, ADR’s, exchange traded funds) after the close of the foreign exchanges but before the close of the Exchange. Securities that are primarily traded on foreign markets may trade on days that are not business days of the Hartford HLS Funds. The value of the portfolio securities of a Hartford HLS Fund that invests in foreign securities may change on days when a shareholder will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of the Hartford HLS Fund. Fair value pricing is subjective in nature and the use of fair value pricing by the Hartford HLS Funds may cause the NAV of their respective shares to differ significantly from the NAV that would have been calculated using market prices at the close of the exchange on which a portfolio security is primarily traded but before the close of the Exchange. There can be no assurance that any Hartford HLS Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to a security if the Hartford HLS Fund were to sell the security at approximately the time at which that Hartford HLS Fund determines its NAV per share. Securities of foreign issuers and non-dollar securities are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the prevailing exchange rates.

Exchange traded equity securities are valued at the latest reported sales prices or official close prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades. If the security did not trade on the primary market, it may be valued at the Valuation Time at the last reported sale price on another exchange where it trades. Securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices.

Debt securities (other than short-term obligations and floating rate loans) held by a Hartford HLS Fund are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by an independent pricing service, which determines valuations for normal institutional size trading units of debt securities. Senior floating rate interests generally trade in over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets and are priced through an independent pricing service utilizing independent market quotations from loan dealers or financial institutions. Securities for which prices are not available from an independent pricing service, but where an active market exists, are valued using market quotations obtained from one or more dealers that make markets in the securities in accordance with procedures established by that Hartford HLS Fund’s Board of Directors. Generally, each Hartford HLS Fund may use fair valuation in regards to debt securities when a Hartford HLS Fund holds defaulted or distressed securities or securities in a company in which a reorganization is pending. Short term investments with a maturity of more than 60 days when purchased are valued based on market quotations until the remaining days to maturity become less than 61 days.  The Hartford HLS Money Market Fund’s investments and investments of other Hartford HLS Funds that mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Each fund’s Board of Directors has delegated authority to the Fund Treasurer to declare and make payment of dividends, to reduce the frequency with which dividends are declared and paid, and to declare and make payments of long-term capital gains as permitted or required by law or in order to avoid tax penalties. The current policy for each Hartford HLS Fund, except Hartford Money Market HLS Fund, is to pay dividends from net investment

27

income and to make distributions of realized capital gains, if any, at least once per year. The Hartford Money Market HLS Fund currently declares dividends on a daily basis and pays them monthly.

Dividends and distributions are automatically invested in full or fractional shares at the net asset value on the reinvestment date. Each fund reserves the right to change its dividend distribution policy at the discretion of its Board of Directors.

FREQUENT PURCHASES AND REDEMPTIONS OF FUND SHARES

Hartford HLS Funds are intended to be long-term investment vehicles and are not designed to provide investors with a means of speculating on short-term market movements (market timing). Frequent purchases and redemptions of a Hartford HLS Fund by a Hartford HLS Fund’s shareholder can disrupt the management of the Hartford HLS Fund, negatively affect the Hartford HLS Fund’s performance, and increase expenses for all Hartford HLS Fund shareholders. In particular, frequent trading (i) can force a Hartford HLS Fund’s portfolio manager to hold larger cash positions than desired instead of fully investing the Hartford HLS Fund, which can result in lost investment opportunities; (ii) can cause unplanned and inopportune portfolio turnover in order to meet redemption requests; and (iii) can increase broker-dealer commissions and other transaction costs as well as administrative costs for the Hartford HLS Fund. Also, some frequent traders engage in arbitrage strategies, by which these traders seek to exploit pricing anomalies that can occur when a Hartford HLS Fund invests in securities that are thinly traded (for example some high yield bonds and small capitalization stocks) or are traded primarily in markets outside of the United States. Frequent traders, and in particular those using arbitrage strategies can dilute a Hartford HLS Fund’s NAV for long-term shareholders.

If you intend to trade frequently or use market-timing investment strategies, you should not invest in the Hartford HLS Funds.

The Hartford HLS Funds are available for investment, directly or indirectly, through a variety of means, through variable contracts issued by Hartford Life Insurance Company and its affiliates (collectively “Hartford Life”); and IRS-qualified investment plans, such as employer-sponsored retirement plans. While some individual investors participate through Qualified Plans, the majority of investors invest through variable contract separate accounts maintained by Hartford Life which in turn invest in the Hartford HLS Funds. In most cases, exchange activity among the Hartford HLS Funds occurs on an omnibus basis, which can limit the ability of the Hartford HLS Funds, themselves, to monitor or restrict the trading practices of individual investors.

In addition to these limitations on the ability of the Hartford HLS Funds themselves to monitor and restrict individual trading practices, the varied mechanisms for participation in the Hartford HLS Funds challenge the Hartford HLS Funds from establishing policies for excessive trading that are enforceable on the same terms with respect to all direct and indirect investors in the Hartford HLS Funds. Older versions of individual variable annuity contracts and certain group annuity contracts issued by Hartford Life, for example, do not include terms that would expressly permit Hartford Life to impose strict numeric limitations on the number of exchanges that a contract holder can make during a specified time period or redemption fees on short-term trading activity. These contracts have not recently been sold by Hartford Life, but holders of these contracts remain invested in Hartford Life’s separate accounts, which in turn invest in the Hartford HLS Funds. As a result, certain accounts may be more susceptible to frequent trading abuses by shareholders while other accounts may be less susceptible.

The Boards of Directors of the Hartford HLS Funds have adopted policies and procedures with respect to frequent purchases and redemptions of Hartford HLS Fund shares by Hartford HLS Fund shareholders. The Hartford HLS Funds’ policy is to discourage investors from trading in a Hartford HLS Fund’s shares in an excessive manner that would be harmful to long-term investors by requiring Hartford Life to establish internal procedures that are reasonably designed to decrease the attractiveness of the Hartford HLS Funds to market timers and to impose reasonable restrictions on frequent purchases and redemptions of Hartford HLS Fund shares to the extent

28

practicable. In addition, it is the Hartford HLS Funds’ policy to require the sub-advisers to establish internal procedures pursuant to which portfolio managers are required to report to Hartford Life any cash flow activities in the Hartford HLS Funds that, in the reasonable judgment of the portfolio manager, are reasonably likely to affect adversely the management or performance of a Hartford HLS Fund and for Hartford Life to review and respond to such reports. The Hartford HLS Funds reserve the right to reject any purchase order at any time and for any reason, without prior written notice. The Hartford HLS Funds also reserve the right to revoke the exchange privileges of any person at any time and for any reason. In making determinations concerning the revocation of exchange privileges, the Hartford HLS Funds may consider an investor’s trading history in any of the Hartford HLS Funds, including the person’s trading history in any accounts under a person’s common ownership or control. No system for prevention and detection of market timing and other abusive trading activities can be expected to eliminate all such activities.

In addition to the procedure described above, Hartford Life has developed and employs procedures with respect to restrictions on trading that vary by the mechanism for participation in the Hartford HLS Funds. Such procedures generally restrict the number of transfers permitted during each valuation day and/or the number of transfers permitted during a year until transfers must be requested by U.S. mail or overnight delivery service. Because the number of transfers or type of restrictions or procedures may vary, individual contract/policy holders and plan participants may be subject to different procedures and any individual should not expect that other individuals are subject to the same procedures or restrictions. For a description of Hartford Life’s procedures applicable to you, please review the prospectus or disclosure document and other documentation associated with your product, policy or plan.

In addition to the variable contracts described above, certain qualified plans participate directly in the Hartford HLS Funds through omnibus accounts. The Boards of Directors of the Hartford HLS Funds has adopted policies and procedures relating to excessive trading in shares of the Hartford HLS Funds through qualified plan omnibus accounts directly in the Hartford HLS Funds (the “Policy”). With respect to investors who invest directly in the Hartford HLS Funds through qualified plans omnibus accounts, it is the Policy of the Hartford HLS Funds to permit only two “substantive round trips” by an investor within any single Hartford HLS Fund within a 90-day period. A substantive round trip is a purchase of or an exchange into the same Hartford HLS Fund and a redemption of or an exchange out of the same Hartford HLS Fund in a dollar amount set by the Hartford HLS Funds’ sub-transfer agent, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion. When an additional transaction request for the Hartford HLS Fund is received within the 90-day period, the requested transaction will be rejected and the person requesting such transaction will be deemed an “Excessive Trader.” All exchange and purchase privileges of an Excessive Trader shall be suspended within such Hartford HLS Fund for the first violation of the policy for a period of 90 days. For a second violation of the policy, the exchange and purchase privileges of the Excessive Trader will be suspended indefinitely. Any transaction not initiated by a shareholder or their registered representative, or that are part of a systematic program, will be exempted from the Policy. In addition, the Money Market HLS Fund is excluded from this policy.

In the case of actual or suspected excessive trading through qualified plan omnibus accounts maintained by financial intermediaries, the Hartford HLS Funds’ sub-transfer agent, Hartford Administrative Services Company (“HASCO”) shall attempt to obtain the cooperation of the intermediaries to identify excessive traders and to prevent or limit, to the fullest extent practicable, such excessive trading activity. Accordingly, the Hartford HLS Funds’ procedures with respect to omnibus accounts will be as follows: (1) Where HASCO is provided individual shareholder level transaction detail on a daily basis, HASCO shall monitor the daily trade activity of individual shareholders and apply the Policy. (2) Where an intermediary will implement the Policy on behalf of HASCO, HASCO shall obtain an appropriate annual certification from such intermediary. (3) Where an intermediary has established reasonable internal controls and procedures (which may be more or less restrictive then those of the Hartford HLS Funds) for limiting exchange activity in a manner that serves the purposes of the Policy as determined by the Frequent Trading Review Committee (comprised of the Hartford HLS Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer, Chief Legal Officer and a senior business leader of The Hartford), HASCO shall permit such intermediary

29

to apply its policy in lieu of this Policy and obtain an appropriate annual certification. Finally, (4) where none of the foregoing occurs, HASCO shall monitor the accounts at an omnibus level and apply detection tools designed to determine whether shareholder transactions violating the Policy may be occurring. In such cases, HASCO shall request and evaluate individual shareholder level transaction detail and seek to impose restrictions in accordance with the Policy.

During calendar year 2007, new SEC rules became effective which require funds and intermediaries to enter into written agreements intended to promote transparency in omnibus accounts. As funds and intermediaries implement the requirements of the new rules, it is expected that the funds will be better able to apply their frequent trading policies to omnibus accounts.

The use of fair value pricing can serve both to make the Hartford HLS Funds less attractive to market timers and to reduce the potential adverse consequences of market timing or abusive trading to other investors. Certain market timers seek to take advantage of pricing anomalies that can occur in Hartford HLS Fund shares resulting from the manner in which the NAV of the Hartford HLS Funds’ shares is determined each day. Frequent trading in Hartford HLS Fund shares can dilute the value of long-term shareholders’ interests in a Hartford HLS Fund if the Hartford HLS Fund calculates its NAV using closing prices that are no longer accurate. This can happen particularly in Hartford HLS Funds that invest in overseas markets or that invest in securities of smaller issuers or thinly traded securities. The Hartford HLS Funds’ pricing procedures, particularly those procedures governing the determination of the “fair value” of securities for which market prices are not readily available (or are unreliable) for foreign securities will be a part of the Hartford HLS Funds’ defenses against harmful excessive trading in Hartford HLS Fund shares. For additional information concerning the Hartford HLS Funds’ fair-value procedures, please refer to “Determination of Net Asset Value” found earlier in the prospectus..

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

For federal income tax purposes, each Hartford HLS Fund is treated as a separate taxpayer. Each Hartford HLS Fund intends to qualify each year as a “regulated investment company” under the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. By so qualifying, a Hartford HLS Fund is not subject to federal income tax to the extent that its net investment income and net realized capital gains are distributed to the Accounts or Plans. Further, each Hartford HLS Fund intends to meet certain diversification requirements applicable to mutual funds underlying variable contracts.

Under current law, Plan participants and owners of variable contracts which have invested in a Hartford HLS Fund are not subject to federal income tax on Hartford HLS Fund earnings and distributions or on gains realized upon the sale or redemption of Hartford HLS Fund shares until such amounts are withdrawn from the plan or contracts. For information concerning the federal tax consequences to the purchasers of the variable contracts, see the prospectus or other disclosure document for such contract.

INVESTMENT POLICY CHANGES

Unless expressly designated as fundamental, all policies and procedures of the Funds may be changed by the Company’s Board without shareholder approval.  To the extent authorized by law, the Company and each of the Funds reserve the right to discontinue offering shares at any time, or to cease operations entirely.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE ACQUIRING FUND

The financial highlights table for the Acquiring Fund is intended to help you understand the Fund’s financial performance for the past five years.  Certain information reflects financial results for a single fund share.  The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have earned, or lost, on an investment in the fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). The information for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007, December 31, 2006, December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 has been derived from the financial statements audited by Ernst & Young LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, whose report, along with the fund’s financial statements and financial highlights, is included in the Hartford Series Funds 2008 Annual Report which is available upon request.  These figures do not include the effect of sales chargers or other fees which may be applied at the variable life insurance, variable annuity or qualified retirement plan product level. If additional charges or other fees applied at the variable product level, if any were included, returns would be lower. The information from January 1, 2009 through June 30, 2009 is unaudited.

APPENDIX A: FORM OF AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (“Agreement”) is made as of this [  ] day of [        ], 2009, by and between Hartford Series Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Hartford Series Fund”), with its principal place of business at 200 Hopmeadow Street, Simsbury, Connecticut 06089, on behalf of Hartford Value HLS Fund (“Acquiring Fund”), a separate series of Hartford Series Fund, and Hartford HLS Series Fund II, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Hartford HLS Series Fund II,” together with Hartford Series Fund, the “Companies”), with its principal place of business at 200 Hopmeadow Street, Simsbury, Connecticut 06089, on behalf of Hartford Value Opportunities HLS Fund (“Acquired Fund”), a separate series of Hartford HLS Series Fund II.

This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a plan of reorganization and liquidation within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”).  The reorganization and liquidation will consist of (1) the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of all of the property and assets of the Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for shares of common stock of the Acquiring Fund (“Acquiring Fund Shares”) corresponding to the class of outstanding shares of common stock of the Acquired Fund (“Acquired Fund Shares”), as described herein, (2) the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund, and (3) the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund, as provided herein (“Reorganization”), all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund are series of Hartford HLS Series Fund II and Hartford Series Fund, respectively, each a registered investment company classified as a management company of the open-end type, and the Acquired Fund owns securities that generally are assets of the character in which the Acquiring Fund is permitted to invest;

WHEREAS, the Directors of Hartford Series Fund have determined, with respect to the Acquiring Fund, that the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of all of the property and assets of the Acquired Fund for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of the Acquiring Fund and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquiring Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction; and

WHEREAS, the Directors of Hartford HLS Series Fund II have determined, with respect to the Acquired Fund, that the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of all of the property and assets of the Acquired Fund for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of the Acquired Fund and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquired Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

1.TRANSFER OF ASSETS OF THE ACQUIRED FUND TO THE ACQUIRING FUND IN EXCHANGE FOR ACQUIRING FUND SHARES, THE ASSUMPTION OF ALL ACQUIRED FUND LIABILITIES AND THE LIQUIDATION OF THE ACQUIRED FUND

1.1.Subject to the requisite approval of the Acquired Fund shareholders and the other terms and conditions herein set forth and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Fund agrees to sell, assign, convey, transfer and deliver all of the property and assets of the Acquired Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.2 herein, to the Acquiring Fund, and the Acquiring Fund agrees in exchange therefor: (i) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of full and fractional Class IA and Class IB Acquiring Fund Shares determined by dividing the value of the Acquired Fund’s net assets with respect to the corresponding class of Acquired Fund Shares, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.1 herein, by the

A-1

net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Share of the corresponding class, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2 herein; and (ii) to assume all liabilities of the Acquired Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.3 herein.  Such transactions shall take place on the date of the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1 herein (“Closing Date”).

1.2.The property and assets of Hartford HLS Series Fund II attributable to the Acquired Fund to be acquired by the Acquiring Fund shall consist of all property and assets, including, without limitation, all rights, cash, securities, commodities and futures interests and dividends or interests receivable that are owned by the Acquired Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund on the Valuation Date as defined in paragraph 2.1 (collectively, “Assets”).  The Acquired Fund will sell, assign, convey, transfer and deliver to the Acquiring Fund any rights, stock dividends, or other securities received by the Acquired Fund after the Closing Date as stock dividends or other distributions on or with respect to the property and assets transferred, which rights, stock dividends, and other securities shall be deemed included in the property and assets transferred to the Acquiring Fund at the Closing Date and shall not be separately valued, in which case any such distribution that remains unpaid as of the Closing Date shall be included in the determination of the value of the assets of the Acquired Fund acquired by the Acquiring Fund.

1.3.The Acquired Fund will make reasonable efforts to discharge all of its known liabilities and obligations prior to the Valuation Date.  The Acquiring Fund shall assume all of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund, whether accrued or contingent, known or unknown, existing at the Valuation Date (collectively, “Liabilities”).  On or as soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund will declare and pay to its shareholders of record one or more dividends and/or other distributions so that it will have distributed substantially all (and in no event less than 98%) of its investment company taxable income (computed without regard to any deduction for dividends paid) and realized net capital gain, if any, for the current taxable year through the Closing Date.

1.4.Immediately following the actions contemplated by paragraph 1.1 herein, Hartford HLS Series Fund II shall take such actions necessary to complete the liquidation of the Acquired Fund.  To complete the liquidation, Hartford HLS Series Fund II, on behalf of the Acquired Fund, shall (a) distribute to the Acquired Fund’s shareholders of record with respect to each class of its shares as of the Closing as defined in paragraph 3.1 herein (“Acquired Fund Shareholders”), on a pro rata basis within the class, the Acquiring Fund Shares of the corresponding class received by the Acquired Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.1 herein, and (b) completely liquidate.  Such distribution and liquidation will be accomplished, with respect to each class of Acquired Fund shares, by the transfer of the Acquiring Fund Shares then credited to the account of the Acquired Fund on the books of the Acquiring Fund to open accounts on the share records of the Acquiring Fund in the names of the Acquired Fund Shareholders.  The aggregate net asset value of Class IA and Class IB Acquiring Fund Shares to be so credited to the Class IA and Class IB Acquired Fund Shareholders, respectively, shall, with respect to the class, be equal to the aggregate net asset value of the Acquired Fund Shares of the corresponding class owned by Acquired Fund Shareholders on the Closing Date.  All issued and outstanding Acquired Fund Shares will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Acquired Fund, although shares certificates representing interests in Class IA and Class IB Acquired Fund Shares will thereafter represent interests in the corresponding class of Acquiring Fund Shares after the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with paragraph 2.3.  The Acquiring Fund shall not issue certificates representing the Class IA and Class IB Acquiring Fund Shares in connection with the Reorganization.

1.5.Ownership of Acquiring Fund Shares will be shown on the books of the Acquiring Fund’s Transfer Agent, as defined in paragraph 3.3 herein.

1.6.Any reporting responsibility of the Acquired Fund, including, but not limited to, the responsibility for filing regulatory reports, tax returns, or other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”), any state securities commission, and any Federal, state or local tax authorities or any other relevant regulatory authority, is and shall remain the responsibility of the Acquired Fund.

A-2

2.VALUATION

2.1.The value of the Assets shall be the value of such Assets as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange and after the declaration of any dividends on the Closing Date (such time and date being hereinafter called the “Valuation Date”), computed using the valuation procedures set forth in the then-current prospectus and statement of additional information with respect to the Acquired Fund and valuation procedures established by the Hartford HLS Series Fund II’s Board of Directors.

2.2.The net asset value of each Acquiring Fund Share shall be the net asset value per share computed with respect to the corresponding class as of the Valuation Date, using the valuation procedures set forth in the Acquiring Fund’s then-current prospectus and statement of additional information, and valuation procedures established by the Hartford Series Fund’s Board of Directors.

2.3.The number of the Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued (including fractional shares, if any) in exchange for the Acquired Fund’s Assets shall be determined by dividing the value of the net assets with respect to the Acquired Fund Shares determined using the same valuation procedures referred to in paragraph 2.1 herein, by the net asset value of the corresponding class of Acquiring Fund Shares, determined in accordance with paragraph 2.2 herein.

2.4.All computations of value shall be made by Hartford Life Insurance Company, in its capacity as Fund Accountant for the Companies, and shall be subject to confirmation by the Companies’ Treasurer.

3.CLOSING AND CLOSING DATE

3.1.The Closing Date shall be [  ], 2009, or such other date as the parties may agree.  All acts taking place at the closing of the transactions provided for in this Agreement (“Closing”) shall be deemed to take place simultaneously as of the close of business on the Closing Date unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.  The close of business on the Closing Date shall be as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time.  The Closing shall be held at the offices of the Companies.

3.2.Hartford HLS Series Fund II shall direct State Street Bank and Trust Company, as custodian for the Acquired Fund (“Custodian”), to deliver to the Companies at the Closing a certificate of an authorized officer of the Custodian stating that (i) the Assets of the Acquired Fund have been delivered in proper form to the Acquiring Fund within two business days prior to or on the Closing Date, and (ii) all necessary taxes in connection with the delivery of the Assets, including all applicable Federal and state stock transfer stamps, if any, have been paid or provision for payment has been made.  The Acquired Fund’s portfolio securities represented by a certificate or other written instrument shall be presented by the Custodian to those persons at the Custodian who have primary responsibility for the safekeeping of the assets of the Acquiring Fund, as the Custodian also serves as the custodian for the Acquiring Fund.  Such presentation shall be made for examination no later than five business days preceding the Closing Date, and such certificates and other written instruments shall be transferred and delivered by the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date for the account of the Acquiring Fund duly endorsed in proper form for transfer in such condition as to constitute good delivery thereof.  The Custodian shall deliver to those persons at the Custodian who have primary responsibility for the safekeeping of the assets of the Acquiring Fund as of the Closing Date by book entry, in accordance with the customary practices of the Custodian and of each securities depository, as defined in Rule 17f-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“Act”), in which the Acquired Fund’s Assets are deposited, the Acquired Fund’s Assets deposited with such depositories.  The cash to be transferred by the Acquired Fund shall be delivered by wire transfer of Federal funds on the Closing Date.

3.3.The Companies shall direct Hartford Investor Services Company, LLC, in its capacity as transfer agent for the Companies (“Transfer Agent”), to deliver to the Companies at the Closing a certificate of an

A-3

authorized officer of the Transfer Agent stating that its records contain the names and addresses of the Acquired Fund Shareholders and the number and percentage ownership of outstanding shares owned by each such shareholder immediately prior to the Closing.  The Secretary of the Companies shall confirm that (a) the appropriate number of Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to the Acquired Fund’s account on the books of the Acquiring Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.1 herein prior to the actions contemplated by paragraph 1.4 herein and (b) the appropriate number of Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to the accounts of the Acquired Fund Shareholders on the books of the Acquiring Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.4 herein.  At the Closing the Companies shall execute such bills of sale, checks, assignments, share certificates, if any, receipts or other documents as necessary to effect the Reorganization.

3.4.In the event that on the Valuation Date (a) the New York Stock Exchange or another primary trading market for portfolio securities of the Acquiring Fund or the Acquired Fund (each, an “Exchange”) shall be closed to trading or trading thereupon shall be restricted, or (b) trading or the reporting of trading on such Exchange or elsewhere shall be disrupted so that, in the judgment of the Board of Directors of Hartford Series Fund or Hartford HLS Series Fund II, accurate appraisal of the value of the net assets of the Acquiring Fund or the Acquired Fund, respectively, is impracticable, the Closing Date shall be postponed until the first business day after the day when trading shall have been fully resumed and reporting shall have been restored.

4.REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

APPENDIX B: EXPLANATION OF STRATEGIES AND RISKS

INVESTMENT RISKS GENERALLY

Many factors affect each Fund’s performance. There is no assurance that a Fund will achieve its investment goal (investment objective), and investors should not consider any one Fund alone to be a complete investment program. As with all mutual funds, there is a risk that an investor could lose money be investing in a fund.

The different types of securities, investments, and investment techniques used by each Fund all have attendant risks of varying degrees.  For example, with respect to equity securities, there exists, among other risks, the risk that the stock market as a whole may decline, thereby depressing the stock’s price (market risk).  In addition, the price of a particular issuer’s stock may decline due to its financial results (financial risk). The Funds may invest in equity securities as part of their principal investment strategy.

OPTIONS, FUTURES AND OTHER DERIVATIVES

The Funds may purchase and sell options, enter into futures contracts and/or utilize other derivative contracts and securities with respect to stocks, bonds, groups of securities (such as financial indices), foreign currencies, interest rates or inflation indices. Derivatives permit a Fund to gain exposure to a particular security, group of securities, interest rate, foreign currency or index, and thereby have the potential for a Fund to earn returns that are similar to those which would be earned by direct investments in those securities or instruments. Derivatives are also used to seek to manage risk by hedging a Fund’s portfolio investments. Hedging techniques may not always be available, and it may not always be feasible to use hedging techniques even when they are available. Also, even if used, hedging techniques may not be successful. Risks of investing in derivatives:

·If the issuer of the derivative instrument does not pay the amount due, a Fund could lose money.

·The underlying security or investment on which the derivative is based, or the derivative itself, may not perform the way a Fund’s manager expected, which could result in losses to a Fund or increase volatility in a Fund’s performance.

·Some derivatives are sophisticated instruments that typically involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of risks assumed (i.e., they result in leverage).

·Derivative securities are subject to market risk (the risk that the market as a whole may decline, thereby depressing the derivative’s price), which could be significant for derivatives that have a leveraging effect.

·Investments in derivatives may subject the Fund to income that is taxable when distributed to shareholders.

FOREIGN INVESTMENTS

Foreign investments include investments in

·Securities of foreign issuers and loans of foreign borrowers, including

·companies organized outside the United States (unless the company’s economic fortunes and risks are primarily linked with U.S. markets)

·foreign governments and agencies or instrumentalities of foreign governments

·issuers and borrowers whose economic fortunes and risks are primarily linked with markets outside the United States

·Non-dollar securities: Securities and loans denominated or quoted in foreign currency or paying income in foreign currency.

Foreign investments may be affected by the following:

·changes in currency rates

B-1

·changes in foreign or U.S. law or restrictions applicable to such investments and in exchange control regulations

·decreased liquidity

·substantially less volume on foreign stock markets and other securities markets

·higher commissions and dealer mark-ups

·inefficiencies in certain foreign clearance and settlement procedures that could result in an inability to execute transactions

·less uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards

·less publicly available information about a foreign issuer or borrower

·less government regulation

·unfavorable foreign tax laws

·political or social instability or diplomatic developments in a foreign country

When compared to the securities markets of more developed countries, the securities markets of most Central and South American, African, Middle Eastern, certain Asian and Eastern European and other emerging countries are subject to the following risks:

·illiquidity

·increased price volatility

·smaller market capitalizations

·less government regulation

·less extensive and less frequent accounting, financial and other reporting requirements

·Governments in many emerging market countries participate to a significant degree in their economies and securities markets, which may impair investment and economic growth.

Further, investment in equity securities of issuers located in Russia and certain other emerging countries involves risk of loss resulting from problems in share registration and custody and substantial economic and political disruptions.

SMALL-CAPITALIZATION COMPANIES

Historically, small market capitalization stocks and stocks of recently organized companies are subject to increased price volatility due to

·less certain growth prospects

·lower degree of liquidity in the markets for such stocks

·thin trading that could result in the stocks being sold at a discount or in small lots over an extended period of time

·limited product lines, markets or financial resources

·dependence on a few key management personnel

·increased susceptibility to losses and bankruptcy

·increased transaction costs

OTHER INVESTMENT COMPANIES

Restrictions on Investments: Investments in securities of other investment companies, including exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), are subject to the following statutory limitations prescribed by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”): Absent an available exemption, a Fund may not

Part B-2

·acquire more than 3% of the voting shares of any other investment company,

·invest more than 5% of a Fund’s total assets in securities of any one investment company, and

·invest more than 10% of its total assets in securities of all investment companies.

ETFs: Most ETFs are investment companies whose shares are purchased and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF represents a portfolio of securities designed to track a particular market segment or index. Many ETFs have obtained exemptive relief from the SEC to permit unaffiliated funds to invest in the ETFs’ shares beyond the statutory limitations discussed above, subject to certain conditions. A Fund may rely on these exemptive orders to invest in unaffiliated ETFs. An investment in an ETF generally presents the following risks:

·the same primary risks as an investment in a conventional fund (i.e., one that is not exchange-traded) that has the same investment objectives, strategies and policies

·the risk that an ETF may fail to accurately track the market segment or index that underlies its investment objective

·price fluctuation, resulting in a loss to the Fund

·the risk that an ETF may trade at a discount to its NAV

·the risk that an active market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained

·the risk that an ETF may no longer meet the listing requirements of any applicable exchanges on which that ETF is listed.

In addition, as with traditional mutual funds, ETFs charge asset-based fees. The Funds will indirectly pay a proportional share of the asset-based fees of the ETFs in which the Funds invest.

ILLIQUID SECURITIES

·In General. Securities purchased by a Fund that are liquid at the time of purchase may subsequently become illiquid due to events relating to the issuer of the securities, market events, economic conditions or investor perceptions. Domestic and foreign markets are becoming more and more complex and interrelated, so that events in one sector of the market or the economy, or in one geographical region, can reverberate and have negative consequences for other market, economic or regional sectors in a manner that may not be reasonably foreseen. With respect to over-the-counter traded securities, the continued viability of any over-the-counter secondary market depends on the continued willingness of dealers and other participants to purchase the securities.

·Limitation on Illiquid Investments. If one or more instruments in a Fund’s portfolio become illiquid, a Fund may exceed its limit on illiquid instruments. In the event that this occurs, the Fund must take steps to bring the aggregate amount of illiquid instruments back within the prescribed limitations as soon as reasonably practicable. This requirement would not force a Fund to liquidate any portfolio instrument where the Fund would suffer a loss on the sale of that instrument.

·Valuation of Illiquid Investments. Where no clear indication of the value of a particular investment is available, the investment will be valued at its fair value according to the valuation procedures approved by the Boards of Directors. These cases include, among others, situations where the secondary markets on which a security has previously been traded are no longer viable for lack of liquidity. The value of illiquid securities may reflect a discount, which may be significant, from the market price of comparable securities for which a liquid market exists, and thus negatively affect a Fund’s NAV. For more information on fair valuation, please see ‘‘Determination of Net Asset Value.’’

USE OF CASH OR MONEY MARKET INVESTMENTS FOR TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE PURPOSES

Each Fund may invest some or all of its assets in cash or high quality money market securities for temporary defensive purposes in response to adverse market, economic or political conditions. To the extent a Fund is in a defensive position, it may lose the benefit of market upswings and limit its ability to meet its investment goal.

Part B-3

CONSEQUENCES OF PORTFOLIO TRADING PRACTICES

Each Fund may, at times, engage in short-term trading. Such activity could produce higher brokerage expenses and transaction costs for a Fund, and therefore could adversely affect the Fund’s performance. Each Fund is not managed to achieve a particular tax result for shareholders.

ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES AND RISKS

Each Fund may invest in various securities and engage in various investment techniques that are not the principal focus of the fund, and therefore, are not described in this prospectus. These securities and techniques, together with their risks, are discussed in the Funds’ Combined Statement of Additional Information which may be obtained free of charge by contacting the Funds (see Proxy Statement/Prospectus for address, phone number and website address).

Acquiring Fund
Pro Forma Notes to Combining Financial Statements
June 30, 2009
(Unaudited, 000's omitted)

1) Description of the Fund

The Acquiring Fund, Hartford Value HLS Fund, ("Acquiring Fund") a series of Hartford Series Fund, Inc. ("Corporation"), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, diversified investment company.

Acquiring Fund consists of two classes of shares: Class IA and Class IB. Each class is offered at the per share net asset value without a sales charge and is subject to the same expenses, except that the Class IB shares are subject to distribution fees charged pursuant to a Distribution and Service Plan. The Distribution and Service Plan has been adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act.

2) Basis of Combination

The accompanying pro forma financial statements are presented to show the effect of the proposed acquisition of the Target Funds: Hartford Equity Income HLS Fund, a series of Hartford Series Fund, Inc., and Hartford Value Opportunities HLS Fund, a series of Hartford HLS Series Fund II, Inc., ("The Target Funds"), by Acquiring Fund as if such acquisition had taken place as of June 30, 2009.

Under the terms of the Plan of Reorganization, the combination of the Target Funds and Acquiring Fund will be accounted for by the method of accounting for tax-free mergers of investment companies. The acquisition would be accomplished by an acquisition of the net assets of the Target Funds in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Fund at net asset value. The statement of assets and liabilities and the related statement of operations of the Target Funds and Acquiring Fund have been combined as of June 30, 2009. Following the acquisition, the Acquiring Fund will be the accounting survivor. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the historical cost of investment securities will be carried forward to the surviving fund and the results of operations for pre-combination periods of the surviving fund will not be restated.

The accompanying pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Acquiring Fund and the Target Funds included in their respective semi-annual reports dated June 30, 2009.

The following notes refer to the accompanying pro forma financial statements as if the above-mentioned acquisition of the Target Funds by Acquiring Fund had taken place as of June 30, 2009.

3) Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Funds, which are in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP").

a)  Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are recorded on the trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost.

  Dividend income is accrued as of the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends for foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the dividend in the exercise of reasonable diligence.

b)  Security Valuation and Investment Income — The Funds generally use market prices in valuing portfolio securities. If market prices are not readily available or are deemed unreliable, a Fund will use the fair value of the security as determined in good faith under policies and procedures established by and under the supervision of that Fund's Board of Directors. Market prices may be deemed unreliable, for example, if a security is thinly traded or if an event has occurred after the close of the security's primary markets, but before the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange") (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, referred to as the "Valuation Time") that is expected to affect the value of the portfolio security. The circumstances in which a Fund may use fair value pricing include, among others: (i) the occurrence of events that are significant to a particular issuer, such as mergers, restructuring or defaults; (ii) the occurrence of events that are significant to an entire market, such as natural disasters in a particular region or governmental actions; (iii) trading restrictions on securities; (iv) thinly traded securities and (v) market events such as trading halts and early market closings. In addition, with respect to the valuation of stocks primarily traded on foreign markets, each Fund uses a fair value pricing service approved by that Fund's Board of Directors, which employs quantitative models which evaluate changes in the value of foreign markets proxies (e.g., futures contracts, ADR's, exchange traded funds ("ETF's")) after the close of the foreign markets but before the close of the Exchange. Securities that are principally traded on foreign markets may trade on days that are not business days of the Funds. The value of the

Part B-11

foreign securities in which a Fund invests may change on days when a shareholder will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of the Fund. Fair value pricing is subjective in nature and the use of fair value pricing by the Funds may cause the per share net asset value ("NAV") of their respective shares to differ significantly from the NAV that would have been calculated using market prices at the close of the exchange on which a portfolio security is primarily traded but before the close of the Exchange. There can be no assurance that any Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to a security if the Fund were to sell the security at approximately the time at which that Fund determines its NAV.

  Exchange traded equity securities shall be valued at the last reported sale price on the exchange or market on which the security is primarily traded (the "Primary Market") at the Valuation Time. If the security did not trade on the Primary Market, it may be valued at the Valuation Time at the last reported sale price on another exchange where it trades. The value of an equity security not traded on any exchange but traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. ("Nasdaq") or another OTC market shall be valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price on the exchange or market on which the security is traded as of the Valuation Time. If it is not possible to determine the last reported sale price or official closing price on the relevant exchange or market at the Valuation Time, the value of the security shall be taken to be the most recent mean between bid and asked prices on such exchange or market at the Valuation Time.

  Securities of foreign issuers and non-dollar securities are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the prevailing exchange rates.

  Financial instruments for which prices are not available from an independent pricing service are valued using market quotations obtained from one or more dealers that make markets in securities in accordance with procedures established by that Funds' Board of Directors.

  A forward currency contract shall be valued based on the price of the underlying currency at the prevailing interpolated exchange rate, which is a combination of the spot currency rate and the forward currency rate. Spot currency rates and forward currency rates are obtained from an independent pricing service on a daily basis not more than one hour before the Valuation Time.

  Other derivative or contractual type instruments shall be valued using market prices if such instruments trade on an exchange or market. If such instruments do not trade on an exchange or market, such instruments shall be valued at a price at which the counterparty to such contract would repurchase the instrument. In the event that the counterparty cannot provide a price, such valuation may be determined in accordance with procedures established by the Funds' Board of Directors.

  Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at the respective NAV of each open-end mutual fund on the valuation date.

4) Capital Shares

The pro forma net asset value per share assumes the issuance of shares of Acquiring Fund that would have been issued at June 30, 2009, in connection with the proposed reorganization. The number of shares assumed to be issued is equal to the net asset value of shares of the Target Funds, as of June 30, 2009, divided by the net asset value per share of the shares of Acquiring Fund as of June 30, 2009. The pro forma number of shares outstanding, by class, for the combined fund consists of the following at June 30, 2009:

5) Federal Income Taxes

Each fund has elected to be taxed as a "regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code. After the acquisition, the Acquiring Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, Federal income taxes.

The identified cost of investments for the funds is substantially the same for both financial accounting and Federal income tax purposes. The tax cost of investments will remain unchanged for the combined fund.

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 15.Indemnification

The relevant portion of Article V of the Articles of Incorporation provides:

(f) The Corporation shall indemnify (i) its directors and officers, whether serving the Corporation or at its request any other entity, to the full extent required or permitted by the General Laws of the State of Maryland and the federal securities laws now or hereafter in force, including the advance of expenses under the procedures and to the full extent permitted by law, and (ii) other employees and agents to such extent as shall be authorized by the Board of Directors or the Bylaws and as permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to protect any director or officer of the Corporation against any liability to the Corporation or its security holders to which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office. The foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled. The Board of Directors may take such action as is necessary to carry out these indemnification provisions and is expressly empowered to adopt, approve and amend from time to time such bylaws, resolutions or contracts implementing such provisions or such further indemnification arrangements as may be permitted by law. No amendment of the charter of the Corporation or repeal of any of its provisions shall limit or eliminate the right of indemnification provided hereunder with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

(g) To the fullest extent permitted by Maryland statutory or decisional law, as amended or interpreted, and the Investment Company Act, no director or officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for money damages; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to protect any director or officer of the Corporation against any liability to the Corporation or its security holders to which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office. No amendment of the charter of the Corporation or repeal of any of its provisions shall limit or eliminate the limitation of liability provided to directors and officers hereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

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 in connection with the securities being registered), the registrant undertakes that it will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the questions 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.
