Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors of Nationwide Life Insurance Company and

Contract Owners of Nationwide VLI Separate Account-2:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets, liabilities and contract owners’ equity of the sub-accounts listed in the Appendix that comprise the Nationwide VLI Separate Account-2 (the Separate Account) as of the date listed in the Appendix, the related statements of operations for the year or period listed in the Appendix and changes in contract owners’ equity for the years or periods listed in the Appendix, and the related notes including the financial highlights in Note 8 (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each sub-account as of the date listed in the Appendix, the results of its operations for the year or period listed in the Appendix and the changes in its contract owners’ equity for the years or periods listed in the Appendix, and the financial highlights for each of the years or periods indicated in Note 8, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Separate Account’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Separate Account in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020, by correspondence with the transfer agent of the underlying mutual funds. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have not been able to determine the specific year that we began serving as the auditor of one or more Nationwide Life Insurance Company separate account investment companies, however we are aware that we have served as the auditor of one or more Nationwide Life Insurance Company separate account investment companies since at least 1981.

* At December 31, 2020, policyholders were not invested in this fund.

The Contract Owners’ Equity is affected by the investment results of each fund, equity transactions by policyholders and certain policy and asset charges (see notes 2 and 3). The accompanying financial statements include only policyholders’ purchase payments pertaining to the variable portions of their policies and exclude any purchase payments for fixed dollar benefits, the latter being included in the accounts of the Company.

A policyholder may choose from among a number of different underlying mutual fund options. The underlying mutual fund options are not available to the general public directly. The underlying mutual funds are available as investment options in variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts issued by life insurance companies or, in some cases, through participation in certain qualified pension or retirement plans.

Some of the underlying mutual funds have been established by investment advisers which manage publicly traded mutual funds having similar names and investment objectives. While some of the underlying mutual funds may be similar to, and may in fact be modeled after, publicly traded mutual funds, the underlying mutual funds are not otherwise directly related to any publicly traded mutual fund. Consequently, the investment performance of publicly traded mutual funds and any corresponding underlying mutual funds may differ substantially.

A purchase payment could be presented as a negative equity transaction in the Statements of Changes in Contract Owners’ Equity if a prior period purchase payment is refunded to a policyholder due to a policy cancellation during the free look period, and/or if a gain is realized by the policyholder during the free look period.

The Company allocates purchase payments to subaccounts and/or the fixed account as instructed by the policyholder. Shares of the subaccounts are purchased at Net Asset Value, then converted into accumulation units. Certain transactions may be subject to conditions imposed by the underlying mutual funds, as well as those set forth in the policy.

Unless listed below, the financial statements presented are as of December 31, 2020 and for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020. For the subaccounts listed below with inception or liquidation dates in 2020, the financial statements are as of December 31, 2020 and for the period from the inception date to December 31, 2020 or from January 1, 2020 to the liquidation date. For the subaccounts listed below with inception or liquidation dates in 2019, the financial statements are as of December 31, 2020 and for the period from inception date to December 31, 2019 or from January 1, 2019 to the liquidation date:

NATIONWIDE VLI SEPARATE ACCOUNT-2 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2020

(c) Security Valuation, Transactions and Related Investment Income

Investments in underlying mutual funds are valued at the closing Net Asset Value per share at December 31, 2020 of such funds. The cost of investments sold is determined on a first in — first out basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed), and dividends and capital gain distributions are accrued as of the ex-dividend date and are reinvested in the underlying mutual funds.

(d) Federal Income Taxes

Operations of the Separate Account form a part of, and are taxed with, operations of the Company which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company does not provide for income taxes within the Separate Account. Taxes are generally the responsibility of the policyholder upon termination or withdrawal.

(e) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(f) COVID-19

Equity and financial markets have experienced significant volatility and interest rates have experienced significant declines primarily driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. These conditions have and may continue to impact the Company’s operations and financial condition. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact the Company’s operations and financial condition will depend on future developments which are evolving and uncertain.

After the ninth year, the annualized rate is 0.80% on the first $25,000 of cash value and 0.50% on additional cash value. For last survivor flexible premium policies, the Company deducts a charge equal to an annualized rate of 0.80% in policy years one through ten. In policy years eleven and after, the charge will continue to be deducted, but may be reduced for policies at specified asset levels. For last survivor flexible premium policies issued in New York, the Company deducts a charge equal to an annualized rate of 0.80% in policy years one through ten and 0.50% thereafter, regardless of cash value. This charge is assessed monthly by liquidating units.

For single premium policies issued prior to April 16, 1990, the Company deducts a charge equal to an annualized rate of 0.95% during the first ten policy years, and 0.50% thereafter. For single premium policies issued on or after April 16, 1990, the charge is equal to an annualized rate of 1.30% during the first ten policy years, and 1.00% thereafter. For multiple payment policies, the Company deducts a charge equal to an annualized rate of 0.80%. For flexible premium and Variable Executive Life policies, the charge is equal to an annualized rate of 0.80% during the first ten policy years, and 0.50% thereafter. This charge is assessed through a reduction in the unit value.

(4) Death Benefits

Death benefit proceeds result in a surrender of the policy value from the Separate Account and payment of those proceeds, less any outstanding policy loans (and policy charges), to the legal beneficiary. For last survivor flexible premium policies, the proceeds are payable on the death of the last surviving insured. In the event that the guaranteed death benefit exceeds the policy value on the date of death, the excess is paid by the Company’s general account. Death benefits are included within the surrenders line item in the equity transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Contract Owners’ Equity.

(5) Policy Loans (Net of Repayments)

Policy provisions allow policyholders to borrow up to 90% (50% during first year of single and modified single premium policies) of a policy’s cash surrender value. For single premium policies issued prior to April 16, 1990, 6.50% interest is due and payable annually in advance of the policy anniversary date. For single premium policies issued on or after April 16, 1990, multiple payment, flexible premium, modified single and last survivor flexible premium policies, 6.00% interest is due and payable in advance on the policy anniversary when there is a loan outstanding on the policy.

At the time the loan is granted, the amount of the loan is transferred from the Separate Account to the Company’s general account as collateral for the outstanding loan. Collateral amounts in the general account are credited with the stated rate of interest in effect at the time the loan is made, subject to a guaranteed minimum rate. Loan repayments result in a transfer of collateral including interest credited back to the Separate Account. Policy loans (net of repayments) are included within the surrenders line item in the equity transactions section of the Statements of Changes in Contract Owners’ Equity.

(6) Related Party Transactions

The Company performs various services on behalf of the mutual fund companies in which the Separate Account invests and may receive fees for the services performed. These services include, among other things, shareholder communications, postage, fund transfer agency and various other record keeping and customer service functions. These fees are paid to an affiliate of the Company.

Policyholders may, with certain restrictions, transfer their assets between the Separate Account and a fixed dollar contract (fixed account) maintained in the accounts of the Company. These transfers are the result of the policyholder executing fund exchanges. Fund exchanges from the Separate Account to the fixed account are included in surrenders, and fund exchanges from the fixed account to the Separate Account are included in purchase payments received from policyholders, as applicable, on the accompanying Statements of Changes in Contract Owners’ Equity. Policy loan transactions (note 5), executed at the direction of the policyholder, also result in transfers between the Separate Account and the fixed account of the Company. The fixed account assets are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, total transfers to the Separate Account from the fixed account were $23,110,379 and $20,138,406, respectively, and total transfers from the Separate Account to the fixed account were $22,222,114 and $14,602,694, respectively.

(7) Fair Value Measurement

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Separate Account generally uses the market approach as the valuation technique due to the nature of the mutual fund investments offered in the Separate Account. This technique maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs.

In accordance with FASB ASC 820, the Separate Account categorized its financial instruments into a three-level hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument in its entirety.

NATIONWIDE VLI SEPARATE ACCOUNT-2 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2020

The Separate Account categorizes financial assets recorded at fair value as follows:

• Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices accessible in active markets and mutual funds where the value per share (unit) is determined and published and is the basis for current transactions for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

• Level 2 – Unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs (other than quoted prices) that are observable or that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means.

• Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Inputs reflect management’s best estimate about the assumptions market participants would use at the measurement date in pricing the asset or liability. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in both the method of valuation and the valuation inputs.

The following table summarizes assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2020:

2017		0.00%	to	0.80%		10,835		33.44	to	31.20		345,820		0.00%		25.86%	to	24.86%

* This represents the annual contract expense rate of the variable account at the period end indicated and includes only those expenses that are charged through a reduction in the unit values. Excluded are expenses of the underlying mutual funds and charges made directly to policyholder accounts through the surrender of units.

** This represents the ratio of dividends for the period indicated, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by monthly average net assets (excluding months where net assets are zero). The investment income ratio for subaccounts initially funded during the period presented has not been annualized. The ratios exclude those expenses that result in direct reductions to the policyholder accounts through reductions in unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccounts invest.

*** This represents the total return for the period. The total returns do not include any expenses assessed through the surrender of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. Total return is not annualized if the underlying mutual fund option was initially added and funded during the period presented.

**** Subaccounts denoted indicate the underlying mutual fund option was initially added and funded during the period presented.
