                         TO PROSPECTUSES, AS AMENDED

     American General Life Insurance Company ("AGL") is amending its variable
universal life insurance Policy prospectuses and variable annuity Contract
prospectuses (collectively, the "prospectuses") for the sole purpose of
replacing information in the "General Information" section of the
prospectuses.

     The following paragraphs replace information under the subheading
"American General Life Insurance Company" in the "General Information"
section of the prospectuses:

     On September 22, 2008, American International Group, Inc. ("AIG")
entered into a revolving credit facility ("FRBNY Credit Facility") with the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("NY Fed").  In connection with the FRBNY
Credit Facility, on March 4, 2009, AIG issued its Series C Perpetual,
Convertible, Participating Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock")
to the AIG Credit Facility Trust, a trust established for the sole benefit of
the United States Treasury (the "Trust").  The Series C shares were entitled
to approximately 77.8% of the voting power of AIG's outstanding stock.

     On January 14, 2011, AIG completed a series of previously announced
integrated transactions (the "Recapitalization") to recapitalize AIG.  In the
Recapitalization, AIG repaid the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("NY Fed")
approximately $21 billion in cash, representing all amounts owing under the
FRBNY Credit Facility and the facility was terminated.  Also as part of the
Recapitalization, (i) the Series C Preferred Stock was exchanged for shares
of AIG Common Stock and subsequently transferred to the U.S. Department of
the Treasury (the "Treasury Department") and the Trust, which had previously
held all shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, was terminated, (ii) AIG's
Series E Preferred Shares and Series F Preferred Shares were exchanged for
shares of AIG Common Stock and a new Series G Preferred Shares (which
functions as a $2 billion commitment to provide funding that AIG will have
the discretion and option to use).  As a result of the Recapitalization, the
Treasury Department is a majority shareholder of AIG Common Stock.  These
transactions do not alter AGL's obligations to you.  It is expected that over
time the Treasury Department will sell its shares of the AIG Common Stock on
the open market.
