We have audited the statement of assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1994

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing

supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant

for our opinion.

Separate Account Two of The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of America
(the "Separate Account") is a unit investment trust registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Separate Account is currently
comprised of eight investment sub-accounts, one for each series of shares of
Manulife Series Fund, Inc., available for allocation of net premiums under
variable annuity policies (the "Policies") issued by The Manufacturers Life
Insurance Company of America ("Manufacturers Life of America").
The Separate Account was established by Manufacturers Life of America, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of Michigan
("MLIM"), as a separate investment account on November 3, 1987. MLIM is a life
insurance holding company organized in 1983 under Michigan law and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company ("Manulife
Financial"), a mutual life insurance company based in Toronto, Canada.
The assets of the Separate Account are the property of Manufacturers Life of
America. The portion of the Separate Account's assets applicable to the
Policies will not be chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business Manufacturers Life of America may conduct.
In May 1994, Manufacturers Life of America began to market a new variable
annuity, Lifestyle, through Separate Account Two.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Separate Account in preparation of its financial statements:
a. Valuation of Investments - Investments are made among the eight Funds of
Manulife Series Fund, Inc. and are valued at the reported net asset values
of these Funds. Transactions are recorded on the trade date.
b. Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are computed on the
first-in, first-out basis.
c. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
d. Federal Income Taxes - Manufacturers Life of America, the Separate
Account's sponsor, is taxed as a "life insurance company" under the
Internal Revenue Code. Under these provisions of the Code, the operations
of the Separate Account form part of the sponsor's total operations and are
not taxed separately.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The current year's operations of the Separate Account are not expected to
affect the sponsor's tax liabilities and, accordingly, no charges were made
against the Separate Account for federal, state and local taxes. However, in
the future, should the sponsor incur significant tax liabilities related to
Separate Account operations, it intends to make a charge or establish a
provision within the Separate Account for such taxes.
3. MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISKS CHARGE
Manufacturers Life of America deducts from the assets of the Separate Account a
daily charge equivalent to an annual rate of 1.0% of the average net value of
the Separate Account's assets for mortality and expense risks.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF MANULIFE SERIES FUND, INC. SHARES
Purchases and sales of the shares of common stock of Manulife Series Fund, Inc.
for the year ended December 31, 1994 were $83,423,197 and $15,243,525,
respectively and for the year ended December 31, 1993 were $72,116,950 and
$5,871,626, respectively.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
ManEquity, Inc., a registered broker-dealer and indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of Manulife Financial, acts as the principal underwriter of the
Policies pursuant to a Distribution Agreement with Manufacturers Life of
America. Registered representatives of either ManEquity, Inc. or other
broker-dealers having distribution agreements with ManEquity, Inc. who are also
authorized as variable life insurance agents under applicable state insurance
laws, sell the Policies. Registered representatives are compensated on a
commission basis.
Manufacturers Life of America has a formal service agreement with its
affiliate, Manulife Financial, which can be terminated by either party upon two
months' notice. Under this Agreement, Manufacturers Life of America pays for
legal, actuarial, investment and certain other administrative services.

Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Directors
The Manufacturers Life Insurance
Company of America
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of The Manufacturers Life
Insurance Company of America as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related
statements of operations, changes in capital and surplus, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of The Manufacturers Life
Insurance Company of America at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles and with reporting practices prescribed or permitted by the
Insurance Department of the State of Michigan.

The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of America
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1994
1. ORGANIZATION
The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of America (Manufacturers Life of
America or the Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Manufacturers Life
Insurance Company of Michigan (the Parent), which is in turn a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company (Manulife Financial), a
Canadian-based mutual life insurance company.
During 1994, the Company's parent contributed $20,000,000 capital in return for
1 share of the Company's common stock par value $1 with the remaining
$19,999,999 being recorded as contributed surplus. During 1994 the Company
restructured its capital by exchanging 230,000 shares of preferred stock with a
par value of $23,000,000 for 3,000,000 shares of common stock par value
$3,000,000 with the remaining $20,000,000 being recorded as contributed
surplus.
The Parent contributed $5,850,000 in capital in return for 1 share of common
stock during 1993, $6,000,000 in capital in return for 60,000 shares of
preferred stock during 1992.
During 1991, the Company invested $1,800,000 to fund initial branch operations
in Taiwan. This investment in Taiwan was increased by $6,000,000 in 1992 and a
further investment of $5,200,000 in 1993. There was no new funding in 1994 for
the Taiwan branch.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements of Manufacturers Life of America have
been prepared in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted
by the Insurance Department of Michigan, which are considered generally
accepted accounting principles for mutual life insurance companies and their
wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries. Such practices differ in
certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles followed by
stock life insurance companies in determining financial position and results of
operations. In general, the differences are: (1) commissions and other costs
of acquiring and writing policies are charged to expense in the year incurred
rather than being amortized over the related policy term; (2) certain
non-admitted assets are excluded from the balance sheet; (3) deferred income
taxes are not provided for timing differences in recording certain items for
financial statement and tax purposes; (4) certain transactions are reflected
directly to surplus rather than reflected in net income from operations (for
example, certain transactions related to the separate accounts); and (5) debt
securities are carried at amortized cost.
21

The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of America
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)
In April 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation
40, Applicability of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles to Mutual Life
Insurance and Other Enterprises. The interpretation, which has been amended to
be effective for 1996 annual financial statements and thereafter, will no
longer allow statutory financial statements to be described as being prepared
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This will
require life insurance companies to adopt all applicable standards promulgated
by the FASB in any general purpose financial statements such companies may
issue. While GAAP standards have recently been developed for mutual life
insurance companies, the Company has not yet completed the complex and
extensive historical calculations and thus is unable to quantify the effects of
the Interpretation on its financial statements.
All amounts presented are expressed in U.S. Dollars. Certain amounts from
prior periods have been reclassified to conform with current period
presentation.
STOCKS
Stocks are carried at market value.
BONDS
Bonds are carried at amortized cost. Discounts and premiums on investments are
amortized using the effective interest method. Gains and losses on sales of
bonds are calculated on the specific identification method and recognized into
income based on NAIC prescribed formulas. Short-term investments include
investments with maturities of less than one year at the date of acquisition.
Market values disclosed are based on NAIC quoted values.
ASSET VALUATION RESERVE AND INTEREST MAINTENANCE RESERVE
The Asset Valuation Reserve and Interest Maintenance Reserve were determined by
NAIC prescribed formulas and are reported as liabilities rather than as
valuation allowances or appropriations of surplus.
POLICY AND CONTRACT CLAIMS
Policy and contract claims are determined on an individual case basis for
reported losses. Estimates of incurred but not reported losses are developed
on the basis of past experience.
22
24
The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company of America
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Separate Accounts
Separate account assets and liabilities reported in the accompanying financial
statements represent funds that are separately administered, principally for
variable annuity and variable life contracts. For the majority of these
contracts the contractholder, rather than the Company, bears the investment
risk. Separate account assets are recorded at market value. Operations of the
separate accounts are not included in the accompanying financial statements.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Both premium and investment income are recorded when due.
REINSURANCE
Reinsurance premiums and claims are accounted for on a basis consistent with
that used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the
reinsurance contracts. Premiums and claims are reported net of reinsured
amounts.
POLICY RESERVES
Certain policy reserves are calculated based on statutorily required interest
and mortality assumptions.
3. INVESTMENTS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
The amortized cost and market value of investments in fixed maturities (bonds)
as of December 31, 1994 are summarized as follows:

on those sales.
The amortized cost and market value of fixed maturities at December 31, 1994 by

obligations with or without prepayment penalties.
