See notes to financial statements. 5 Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York (the "Company"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company ("ALIC"), which is wholly owned by Allstate Insurance Company ("AIC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation (the "Corporation"). The financial statements and notes as of September 30, 2000, and for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, are unaudited. The financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York Annual Report on Form 10-K for 1999. The results of operations for the interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Pending Accounting Standards In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board delayed the effective date of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 replaces existing pronouncements and practices with a single, integrated accounting framework for derivatives and hedging activities. This statement requires that all derivatives be recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Additionally, the change in fair value of a derivative that is not effective as a hedge will be immediately recognized in earnings. The delay was effected through the issuance of SFAS No. 137, which extends the SFAS No. 133 requirements to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, which amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging activities. As such, the Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 as of January 1, 2001. The impact of these statements is dependent upon the Company's derivative positions and market conditions existing at the date of adoption. Based on existing interpretations of the requirements of SFAS No. 133, the impact of adoption is not expected to be material to the results of operations or financial position of the Company. In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," which supercedes SFAS No. 125 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS No. 140 changes the circumstances under which a secured party must recognize certain financial assets in which it has security interest. As a result, when the Company adopts the provisions of SFAS No. 140, it will cease recognizing collateral previously recognized under the guidance of SFAS No. 125. The provisions of SFAS No. 140 will be adopted effective January 1, 2001, and is not expected to have a material impact on the financial position of the Company. Financial statements for previous periods presented for comparative purposes will be restated accordingly. 6 Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) 2.

7 Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) 3. Regulation and Legal Proceedings The Company's business is subject to the effects of a changing social, economic and regulatory environment. Recent public and regulatory initiatives have varied and have included employee benefit regulations, removal of barriers preventing banks from engaging in the securities and insurance business, tax law changes affecting the taxation of insurance companies and the tax treatment of insurance products and its impact on the relative desirability of various personal investment vehicles. The ultimate changes and eventual effects, if any, of these initiatives are uncertain. In the normal course of its business, the Company is involved in pending and threatened litigation and regulatory actions in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. At this time, based on their present status, it is in the opinion of management, that the ultimate liability, if any, in one or more of these actions in excess of amounts currently reserved is not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, liquidity or financial position of the Company. 8 Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) 4. Reinsurance The Company has reinsurance agreements with ALIC in order to limit aggregate and single exposure on large risks. A portion of the Company's premiums, policy benefits and certain costs and expenses are ceded to ALIC and reflected net of such reinsurance in the statements of operations. Reinsurance recoverables and the related reserve for life-contingent contract benefits and contractholder funds are reported separately in the statements of financial position. The Company continues to have primary liability as the direct insurer for risks reinsured. The following amounts were ceded to ALIC under reinsurance agreements.

9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 The following discussion highlights significant factors influencing results of operations and changes in financial position of Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York (the "Company"). It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto found under Part I. Item 1 contained herein and with the discussion, analysis, financial statements and notes thereto in Part I. Item 1 and Part II. Items 7 and 8 of the Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company ("ALIC"), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Insurance Company ("AIC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation (the "Corporation"), markets life insurance and savings products in the state of New York through a combination of exclusive agencies, securities firms, banks, specialized brokers and direct response marketing. Life insurance products consist of traditional products, including term and whole life, interest-sensitive life and immediate annuities with life contingencies. Savings products include deferred annuities and immediate annuities without life contingencies. Deferred annuities include fixed rate, market value adjusted and variable annuities. The Company has identified itself as a single segment entity. The assets and liabilities related to variable annuity and variable life contracts are legally segregated and reflected as Separate Accounts. The assets of the Separate Accounts are carried at fair value. Separate Accounts liabilities represent the contractholders' claims to the related assets and are carried at the fair value of the assets. In the event that the asset value of certain contractholder accounts are projected to be below the value guaranteed by the Company, a liability is established through a charge to earnings. Investment income and realized capital gains and losses of the Separate Accounts accrue directly to the contractholders and therefore, are not included in the Company's statements of operations. 10 ITEM 2.

(1) The supplemental operating information presented above allows for a more complete analysis of results of operations. The net effects of realized capital gains and losses have been excluded due to the volatility between periods and because such data is often excluded when evaluating the overall financial performance of insurers. Operating income should not be considered as a substitute for any GAAP measure of performance. Our method of calculating operating income may be different from the method used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. 11 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 Statutory premiums and deposits Statutory premiums and deposits, which include premiums and deposits for all products, are used to analyze sales trends. The following table summarizes statutory premiums and deposits by product line.

Statutory premiums and deposits increased $85.6 million or 125.4% for the third quarter of 2000 compared with the same period last year, and $309.1 million or 158.3% for the first nine months of 2000 compared with the same period last year. The increases were primarily due to higher variable and fixed annuity sales. Increased variable annuity sales, for the first nine months of 2000, were primarily driven by $140.4 million of sales from the new Putnam Allstate Advisor variable annuity product that was launched in New York in January 2000. The large increase in fixed annuity sales resulted from new distribution outlets in the banking distribution channel. 12 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 GAAP premiums and contract charges Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), premiums represent revenue generated from traditional life products with significant mortality risks. Revenues for interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed and variable annuity contracts, for which deposits are treated as liabilities, are reflected as contract charges. Immediate annuities may be purchased with a life contingency whereby mortality risk is a significant factor. For this reason the GAAP revenues generated on these contracts are recognized as premiums. The following table summarizes GAAP premiums and contract charges.
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ ($ in thousands) 2000 1999 2000 1999 --------------- --------------- ------------ -------------- Premiums Traditional life $ 4,414 $ 4,081 $ 12,514 $ 11,467 Immediate annuities with life contingencies 19,039 11,127 49,879 32,369 Other 1,868 1,627 5,360 4,564 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total premiums $ 25,321 $ 16,835 $ 67,753 $ 48,400 -------- -------- -------- -------- Contract charges Interest-sensitive life $ 7,343 $ 7,430 $ 23,159 $ 22,204 Variable annuities 2,284 1,745 6,350 5,078 Other 783 432 2,041 1,345 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total contract charges $ 10,410 $ 9,607 $ 31,550 $ 28,627 -------- -------- -------- -------- Total premiums and contract charges $ 35,731 $ 26,442 $ 99,303 $ 77,027 ======== ======== ======== ========
Total premiums for the three month and nine month period ended September 30, 2000 increased 50.4% to $25.3 million and 40.0% to $67.8 million, respectively, compared with the same periods last year due to higher sales of immediate annuities with life contingencies. Contract charges for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 increased 8.4% to $10.4 million and 10.2% to $31.5 million, respectively, compared with the same period last year. The increase for the third quarter was due to increased variable annuity deposits and increased charges on immediate annuities without life contingencies due to higher sales. The increases for the first nine months of 2000 were primarily due to higher interest-sensitive life contract charges that were the result of growth in interest-sensitive life policies in force, increased charges on immediate annuities without life contingencies due to higher sales, and increased variable annuity deposits. Operating income Operating income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 increased 33.5% to $8.1 million and 35.3% to $25.8 million, respectively, compared with the same period last year. These increases were due to increased net investment income, premiums, and contract charges partially offset by higher contract benefits. 13 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 Net investment income Net investment income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 increased 19.7% to $45.2 million and 18.1% to $129.7 million, respectively, compared with the same period last year due to higher investment balances resulting from increased sales and increased cash flows from operations in both periods. Realized capital gains and losses Realized capital gains, after-tax, were $184 thousand for the third quarter of 2000 compared to realized capital losses, after-tax, of $515 thousand for the third quarter of 1999. Realized capital losses, after tax, were $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $989 thousand for the same period last year. Period to period fluctuations in realized capital losses are largely the result of timing of sales, reflecting management's decision on positioning the portfolio, as well as assessments of individual securities and overall market conditions.

Amortized cost for these securities was $2,149,376 at September 30, 2000. Total investments were $2.6 billion at September 30, 2000 compared to $2.2 billion at December 31, 1999. The increase was due to positive cash flows generated from operations and increases in unrealized gains on fixed income securities. At September 30, 2000, unrealized capital gains on the fixed income securities portfolio were $117.2 million compared to $54.3 million at December 31, 1999. At September 30, 2000, substantially all of the Company's fixed income securities portfolio was rated investment grade, which is defined by the Company as a security having a National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC") rating of 1 or 2, a Moody's rating of Aaa, Aa, A, Baa or a comparable Company internal rating. Separate Accounts Separate Accounts assets and liabilities increased 25.3% to $556.0 million at September 30, 2000 from the December 31, 1999 balance. The increases were primarily attributable to sales of variable annuity contracts partially offset by surrenders and withdrawals. 14 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's principal sources of funds are the receipt of premiums and deposits and collections of principal and interest and dividends from the investment portfolio. The primary uses of these funds are to purchase investments and pay policyholder claims, benefits, contract maturities, contract surrenders and withdrawals and operating costs. The maturity structure of the Company's fixed income securities, which represent 87.3% of the Company's total investments, is managed to meet the anticipated cash flow requirements of the underlying liabilities. A portion of the Company's diversified product portfolio, primarily fixed deferred annuity and interest-sensitive life insurance products, is subject to discretionary surrender and withdrawal by contractholders. Total surrenders and withdrawals for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 were $27.7 million and $72.1 million compared with $18.9 million and $44.3 million for the same periods last year. As the Company's interest-sensitive life policies and annuity contracts in-force grow and age, the dollar amount of surrenders and withdrawals will likely increase. While the overall amount of surrenders may increase in the future, a significant increase in the level of surrenders relative to total contractholder account balances is not anticipated. Pending Accounting Standards In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board delayed the effective date of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 replaces existing pronouncements and practices with a single, integrated accounting framework for derivatives and hedging activities. This statement requires that all derivatives be recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Additionally, the change in fair value of a derivative that is not effective as a hedge will be immediately recognized in earnings. The delay was effected through the issuance of SFAS No. 137, which extends the SFAS No. 133 requirements to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, which amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133 for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging activities. As such, the Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 as of January 1, 2001. The impact of these statements is dependent upon the Company's derivative positions and market conditions existing at the date of adoption. Based on existing interpretations of the requirements of SFAS No. 133, the impact of adoption is not expected to be material to the results of operations or financial position of the Company. In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," which supercedes SFAS No. 125 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS No. 140 changes the circumstances under which a secured party must recognize certain financial assets in which it has security interest. As a result, when the Company adopts the provisions of SFAS No. 140, it will cease recognizing collateral previously recognized under the guidance of SFAS No. 125. The provisions of SFAS No. 140 will be adopted effective January 1, 2001, and is not expected to have a material impact on the financial position of the Company. Financial statements for previous periods presented for comparative purposes will be restated accordingly. 15 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 Forward-looking Statements The statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis that are not historical information are forward-looking statements that are based on management's estimates, assumptions and projections. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor under The Securities Act of 1933 and The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for forward-looking statements. Forward looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and may be identified by their use of words like "plans," "expects," "will," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "believes," "likely," and other words with similar meanings. These statements may address, among other things, our strategy for growth, product development, regulatory approvals, market position, expenses, financial results and reserves. Forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations and assumptions. However, we believe that our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable, current expectations and assumptions. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or developments. If the expectations or assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements prove inaccurate or if risks or uncertainties arise, actual results could differ materially from those communicated in our forward-looking statements. In addition to the normal risks of business, the Company is subject to significant risk factors, including those listed below which apply to it as an insurance business. o Changes in market interest rates can have adverse effects on the Company's investment portfolio, investment income, product sales and results of operations. Increases in market interest rates have an adverse impact on the value of the investment portfolio by decreasing unrealized capital gains on fixed income securities. In addition, increases in market interest rates as compared to rates offered on some of the Company's products could make those products less attractive and lead to lower sales and/or increase the level of surrenders on these products. Declining market interest rates could have an adverse impact on the Company's investment income as the Company reinvests proceeds from positive cash flows from operations and from maturing and called investments into new investments that could be yielding less than the portfolio's average rate. Additionally, the impact of decreasing Separate Accounts balances resulting from fluctuating market conditions could cause contract charges realized by the Company to decrease. o In order to meet the anticipated cash flow requirements of its obligations to policyholders, from time to time the Company adjusts the effective duration of the assets and liabilities of the Company's investment portfolio. Those adjustments may have an impact on the value of the investment portfolio and on investment income. o State insurance regulatory authorities require insurance companies to maintain specified levels of statutory capital and surplus. In addition, competitive pressures require the Company to maintain financial strength or claims-paying ability ratings. These restrictions affect the Company's ability to use its capital. o There is uncertainty involved in estimating the availability of reinsurance and the collectibility of reinsurance recoverables. This uncertainty arises from a number of factors, including segregation by the industry generally of reinsurance exposure into separate legal entities. o The Company distributes some of its products under agreements with other financial services entities. Termination of such agreements due to changes in control of these non-affiliated entities could have a detrimental effect on the Company's sales. This risk may be increased due to the enactment of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, which eliminates many federal and state law barriers to affiliations among banks, securities firms, insurers and other financial service providers. 16 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999 o A number of enacted and pending legislative measures may lead to increased consolidation and increased competition in the financial services industry. At the federal level, these measures include the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, which eliminates many federal and state law barriers to affiliations among banks, securities firms, insurers and other financial service providers. At the state level, these measures include legislation to permit mutual insurance companies to convert to a hybrid structure known as a mutual holding company, thereby allowing insurance companies owned by their policyholders to become stock insurance companies owned (through one or more intermediate holding companies) at least 51% by their policyholders and potentially up to 49% by stockholders. Also several large mutual life insurers have used or are expected to use existing state laws and regulations governing the conversion of mutual insurance companies into stock insurance companies (demutualization). These measures may also increase competition for capital among financial service providers. o Deferred annuities and interest-sensitive life insurance products receive favorable policyholder taxation under current tax laws and regulations. Any legislative or regulatory changes that adversely alter this treatment are likely to negatively affect the demand for these products. o The adoption of SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended, is not expected to be material to the results of operations of the Company. However, the impact is dependent upon market conditions and our holdings existing at the date of adoption, which for the Company will be January 1, 2001. o Financial strength ratings have become an increasingly important factor in establishing the competitive position of insurance companies and may generally be expected to have an effect on an insurance company's business. On an ongoing basis, rating organizations review the financial performance and condition of insurers. Downgrades in one or more of the ratings of the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. 17 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company and its Board of Directors know of no material legal proceedings pending to which the Company is a party or which would materially affect the Company. The Company is involved in pending and threatened litigation in the normal course of its business in which claims for monetary damages are asserted. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, does not anticipate the ultimate liability arising from such pending or threatened litigation to have a material effect on the financial condition of the Company.
