See Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 6 AETNA LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES (A wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Holdings, Inc.) CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Aetna Insurance Company of America and Aetna Private Capital, Inc. (collectively, the "Company"). Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Holdings, Inc. ("HOLDCO"). HOLDCO is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Services, Inc., whose ultimate parent is Aetna Inc. ("Aetna"). These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and are unaudited. Certain reclassifications have been made to 1996 financial information to conform to the 1997 presentation. These interim statements necessarily rely heavily on estimates, including assumptions as to annualized tax rates. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes as presented in the Company's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but that is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. 2. FUTURE APPLICATION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Financial Accounting Standard ("FAS") No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, was issued in June 1996 and provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. FAS No. 125 is effective for 1997 financial statements; however, certain provisions relating to accounting for repurchase agreements and securities lending are not effective until January 1, 1998. Provisions effective in 1997 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company does not expect adoption of this statement for provisions effective in 1998 to have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. 3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company engages in hedging activities to manage interest rate and price risks. Such hedging activities have principally consisted of using off-balance sheet instruments such as futures and forward contracts and interest rate swap agreements. There were no such contracts or agreements open as of March 31, 1997. 7 AETNA LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITY COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES (A wholly owned subsidiary of Aetna Retirement Holdings, Inc.) Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) 4. SEVERANCE AND FACILITIES CHARGES In the second quarter of 1996, the Company was allocated severance and facilities reserves from Aetna to reflect actions taken or to be taken to reduce the level of corporate expenses and other costs previously absorbed by Aetna's property-casualty operations. In the third quarter of 1996, the Company established severance and facilities reserves in the Financial Services and Individual Life Insurance segments to reflect actions taken or to be taken in order to make its businesses more competitive. Activity for the three months ended March 31, 1997 within the severance and facilities reserves (pretax, in millions) and positions eliminated related to such actions were as follows:
RESERVE POSITIONS ----------- ------------- Balance at December 31, 1996..................... $ 47.9 524 Actions taken (1)................................ (10.9) (88) ----------- ------------- Balance at March 31, 1997........................ $ 37.0 436 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ------------------------ (1) Includes $6.3 million of the Company's severance-related actions and $3.9 million of corporate allocation-related actions. The Company's severance actions are expected to be substantially completed by March 31, 1998. The corporate allocation actions and vacating of certain leased office space are expected to be substantially completed in 1997. 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Effective December 31, 1988, the Company entered into a reinsurance agreement with Aetna Life Insurance Company ("Aetna Life") in which substantially all of the non-participating individual life and annuity business written by Aetna Life prior to 1981 was assumed by the Company. Effective January 1, 1997, this agreement has been amended to transition (based on underlying investment rollover in Aetna Life) from a modified coinsurance to a coinsurance arrangement. As a result of this change, reserves will be ceded to the Company from Aetna Life as investment rollover occurs and the loan previously established will be reduced. 6. LITIGATION The Company is involved in numerous lawsuits arising, for the most part, in the ordinary course of its business operations. While the ultimate outcome of litigation against the Company cannot be determined at this time, after consideration of the defenses available to the Company and any related 8 reserves established, it is not expected to result in liability for amounts material to the financial condition of the Company, although it may adversely affect results of operations in future periods. 9 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT The Board of Directors Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company: We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1997, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholder's equity and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholder's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 4, 1997, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996, is fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. /s/ KPMG Peat Marwick LLP Hartford, Connecticut May 5, 1997 10 ITEM 2.

- ------------------------ (1) Includes $16.4 million and $19.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, for annuity contracts converting from the accumulation phase to payout options with life contingencies. (2) Excludes net unrealized capital gains of $50.1 million and $301.8 million at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. (3) Includes $4,989.3 million and $3,167.0 million at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, of assets held and managed by unaffiliated mutual funds. (4) March 31, 1997 includes $950.3 million of assets under management related to business previously written by an affiliate. OVERVIEW The Company's net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased 4% compared with the same period a year ago. Excluding net realized capital gains, results for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased $8 million or 22% from the prior period reflecting improved earnings from both the financial services and life insurance segments. Assets under management, excluding the amount related to business previously written by an affiliate, increased by 17% primarily due to continued business growth through deposits and appreciation in the stock market. 11 Of the $11.8 billion and $11.2 billion of fixed annuity assets under management at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, 25% and 23%, respectively, were fully guaranteed and 75% and 77%, respectively, were experience rated. The average annualized earned rate on investments supporting fully guaranteed contracts was 7.9% and 8.0% and the average annualized earned rate on investments supporting experience rated contracts was 8.1% and 8.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The average annualized credited rate on fully guaranteed contracts was 6.7% and 6.6% and the average annualized credited rate on experience rated contracts was 6.0% for each of the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The resulting annualized interest margins on fully guaranteed contracts were 1.2% and 1.4% and on experience rated contracts were 2.1% and 2.2% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. The duration of the investment portfolios supporting the Company's liabilities is regularly monitored and adjusted in order to maintain an aggregate duration that is within 0.5 years of the estimated duration of the underlying liabilities. For additional information regarding the Company's asset/liability management practices please see the Company's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K. 12 SEGMENT RESULTS Financial Services:

- ------------------------ (1) Includes $16.4 million and $19.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, for annuity contracts converting from the accumulation phase to payout options with life contingencies. (2) Excludes net unrealized capital gains of $51.7 million and $275.7 million at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. (3) Includes $4,888.9 million and $3,126.2 million at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, of assets held and managed by unaffiliated mutual funds. (4) March 31, 1997 includes $950.3 million of assets under management related to business previously written by an affiliate. Net income in the Financial Services segment for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased 4% compared with the same period a year ago. Excluding net realized capital gains, results for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased $7 million or 30% when compared with the same period a year ago. The increase in earnings reflects increased charges assessed against policyholders primarily from increased assets under management. Assets under management, excluding the amount related to business previously written by an affiliate, increased primarily due to continued business growth through deposits and appreciation in the stock market. Earnings for the three months ended March 31, 1997 also reflect a 9% decrease in operating expenses when compared with the same period a year ago, reflecting cost savings from previous restructurings. 13 Individual Life Insurance:

(2) Includes $100.4 million and $40.8 million at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively, of assets held and managed by unaffiliated mutual funds. Net income in the Individual Life Insurance segment for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased 4% compared with the same period a year ago. Excluding net realized capital gains, earnings for the three months ended March 31, 1997 increased $1 million or 8% when compared with the same period a year ago. The increase in earnings reflects increased charges assessed against policyholders primarily from increased individual life insurance coverage in force, as well as lower operating expenses resulting from cost savings associated with previous restructurings. Such increases were partially offset by unfavorable mortality experience. Premiums and current and future benefits reflect $22.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 related to the transition of the reinsurance agreement with Aetna Life from a modified coinsurance to a coinsurance arrangement (see Note 5 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). 14 GENERAL ACCOUNT INVESTMENTS The Company's investment strategies and portfolios are intended to match the duration of the related liabilities and provide sufficient cash flow to meet obligations while maintaining a competitive rate of return. The duration of these investments is monitored, and investment purchases and sales are executed with the objective of having adequate funds available to satisfy the Company's maturing liabilities. The risks associated with investments supporting experience rated products are assumed by those customers subject to, among other things, certain minimum guarantees. The Company's invested assets were comprised of the following:

At both March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Company's carrying value of investments in debt securities represented 95% of total general account invested assets. At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, $9.9 billion and $10.3 billion, respectively, or 80% of total debt securities supported experience rated products for both periods. It is management's objective that the portfolio of debt securities be of high quality and be well-diversified by market sector.
