Item 3(c). Risk Factors

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking statements” that anticipate results based on our estimates, assumptions and plans that are subject to uncertainty. These statements are made subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and may be identified by their use of words like “plans,” “seeks,” “expects,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “believes,” “likely,” “targets” and other words with similar meanings. These statements may address, among other things, our strategy for growth, product development, investment results, regulatory approvals, market position, expenses, financial results, litigation and reserves. We believe that these statements are based on reasonable estimates, assumptions and plans. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or developments. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks or uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those communicated in these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in the Risk Factors below and elsewhere in this document and those described from time to time in our other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

In addition to the normal risks of business, we are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including those listed below, which apply to us as an insurer and a provider of other products and financial services. These cautionary statements should be considered carefully together with other factors discussed elsewhere in this document, in our filings with the SEC or in materials incorporated therein by reference.

 

1


Changes in underwriting and actual experience could materially affect profitability and financial condition

Our product pricing includes long-term assumptions regarding investment returns, mortality, morbidity, persistency and operating costs and expenses of the business. We establish target returns for each product based upon these factors and the average amount of capital that we must hold to support in-force contracts taking into account rating agencies and regulatory requirements. We monitor and manage our pricing and overall sales mix to achieve target new business returns on a portfolio basis, which could result in the discontinuation or de-emphasis of products and a decline in sales. Profitability from new business emerges over a period of years depending on the nature and life of the product and is subject to variability as actual results may differ from pricing assumptions. Additionally, many of our products have fixed or guaranteed terms that limit our ability to increase revenues or reduce benefits, including credited interest, once the product has been issued.

Our profitability depends on the sufficiency of premiums and contract charges to cover mortality and morbidity benefits, the persistency of policies to ensure recovery of acquisition expenses, the adequacy of investment spreads, the management of market and credit risks associated with investments, and the management of operating costs and expenses within anticipated pricing allowances. Legislation and regulation of the insurance marketplace and products could also affect our profitability and financial condition.

Changes in reserve estimates may adversely affect our operating results

The reserve for life-contingent contract benefits payable under insurance policies, including traditional life insurance, life-contingent immediate annuities and voluntary accident and health insurance products, is computed on the basis of long-term actuarial assumptions of future investment yields, mortality, morbidity, persistency and expenses. Mortality and morbidity may continue to improve in the future from current levels, due to medical advancements that have resulted in policyholders living longer than anticipated. We periodically review the adequacy of these reserves on an aggregate basis and if future experience differs significantly from assumptions, adjustments to reserves and amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) may be required that could have a material effect on our operating results.

Changes in market interest rates may lead to a significant decrease in the profitability of spread-based products

Our ability to manage our in-force spread-based products, such as fixed annuities, is dependent upon maintaining profitable spreads between investment yields and interest crediting rates. When market interest rates decrease or remain at relatively low levels, proceeds from investments that have matured or have been prepaid or sold may be reinvested at lower yields, reducing investment spread. Lowering interest crediting rates on some products in such an environment can partially offset decreases in investment yield. However, these changes could be limited by regulatory minimum rates or contractual minimum rate guarantees on many contracts and may not match the timing or magnitude of changes in investment yields. Increases in market interest rates can have negative effects, for example by increasing the attractiveness of other investments to our customers, which can lead to increased surrenders at a time when our fixed income investment asset values are lower as a result of the increase in interest rates. This could lead to the sale of fixed income securities at a loss.

Changes in estimates of profitability on interest-sensitive life products may adversely affect our profitability and financial condition through the amortization of DAC

DAC related to interest-sensitive life contracts is amortized in proportion to actual historical gross profits and estimated future gross profits (“EGP”) over the estimated lives of the contracts. The principal assumptions for determining the amount of EGP are mortality, persistency, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses on assets supporting contract liabilities, interest crediting rates to contractholders, and the effects of any hedges. Updates to these assumptions (commonly referred to as “DAC unlocking”) could result in accelerated amortization of DAC and thereby adversely affect our profitability and financial condition.

 

2


Reducing our concentration in spread-based business and exiting certain distribution channels may adversely affect reported results

We have been reducing our concentration in spread-based business since 2008 and discontinued offering fixed annuities effective January 1, 2014. We also exited the structured settlement annuity brokers distribution channel in 2013. The reduction in sales of these products has and will continue to reduce investment portfolio levels. It may also affect the settlement of contract benefits including forced sales of assets with unrealized capital losses, and affect insurance reserves deficiency testing. We continue to assess additional utilization of outsourcing arrangements, and if we are unsuccessful, our cost structure may be less competitive.

Changes in tax laws may decrease sales and profitability of products and adversely affect our financial condition

Under current federal and state income tax law, certain products we provide, primarily life insurance, receive beneficial tax treatment. This favorable treatment may give certain of our products a competitive advantage over noninsurance products. Congress and various state legislatures from time to time consider legislation that would reduce or eliminate the beneficial policyholder tax treatment currently applicable to life insurance. Congress and various state legislatures also consider proposals to reduce the taxation of certain products or investments that may compete with life insurance. Legislation that increases the taxation on insurance products or reduces the taxation on competing products could lessen the advantage or create a disadvantage for certain of our products making them less competitive. Such proposals, if adopted, could have a material effect on our profitability and financial condition or ability to sell such products and could result in the surrender of some existing contracts and policies. In addition, changes in the federal estate tax laws could negatively affect the demand for the types of life insurance used in estate planning.

We may not be able to mitigate the capital impact associated with life insurance statutory reserving requirements, potentially resulting in a need to increase prices, reduce sales of certain life products, and/or accept a return on equity below original levels assumed in pricing

To support statutory reserves for certain life insurance products, we currently utilize reinsurance for mitigating a portion of our statutory reserve requirements. As we continue to underwrite certain life business, we expect to have additional reinsurance or financing needs to mitigate the impact of these reserve requirements. If we do not obtain additional reinsurance or financing as a result of market conditions or otherwise, this could require us to increase prices, reduce our sales of certain life products, and/or result in a return on equity below original levels assumed in pricing.

Risks Relating to Investments

We are subject to market risk and declines in credit quality which may adversely affect investment income and cause realized and unrealized losses

We continually reevaluate our investment management strategies since we are subject to the risk of loss due to adverse changes in interest rates, credit spreads, equity prices or currency exchange rates. Adverse changes in these rates, spreads and prices may occur due to changes in monetary policy and the economic climate, the liquidity of a market or market segment, investor return expectations and/or risk tolerance, insolvency or financial distress of key market makers or participants, or changes in market perceptions of credit worthiness. We are also subject to market risk related to investments in loans and securities collateralized by real estate. Some of our investment strategies target individual investments with unique risks that are not highly correlated with broad market risks. Although we expect these investments to increase total portfolio returns over time, their performance may vary from and under-perform relative to the market in some periods.

We are subject to risks associated with potential declines in credit quality related to specific issuers or specific industries and a general weakening in the economy, which are typically reflected through credit spreads.

 

3


Credit spread is the additional yield on fixed income securities and loans above the risk-free rate (typically referenced as the yield on U.S. Treasury securities) that market participants require to compensate them for assuming credit, liquidity and/or prepayment risks. Credit spreads vary (i.e. increase or decrease) in response to the market’s perception of risk and liquidity in a specific issuer or specific sector and are influenced by the credit ratings, and the reliability of those ratings, published by external rating agencies. Although we have the ability to use derivative financial instruments to manage these risks, the effectiveness of such instruments varies with liquidity and other conditions that may impact derivative and bond markets. Adverse economic conditions or other factors could cause declines in the quality and valuation of our investment portfolio that would result in realized and unrealized losses. The concentration of our investment portfolio in any particular issuer, industry, collateral type, group of related industries, geographic sector or risk type could have an adverse effect on our investment portfolio and consequently on our results of operations and financial condition.

A decline in market interest rates or credit spreads could have an adverse effect on our investment income as we invest cash in new investments that may earn less than the portfolio’s average yield. In a declining interest rate environment, borrowers may prepay or redeem securities more quickly than expected as they seek to refinance at lower rates. A decline could also lead us to purchase longer-term or riskier assets in order to obtain adequate investment yields resulting in a duration gap when compared to the duration of liabilities. Alternatively, longer-term assets may be sold and reinvested in shorter-term assets in anticipation of rising interest rates. An increase in market interest rates or credit spreads could have an adverse effect on the value of our investment portfolio by decreasing the fair values of the fixed income securities that comprise a substantial majority of our investment portfolio.

The amount and timing of net investment income from our performance-based long-term investments, including private equity, infrastructure and agriculture related assets, tends to be uneven as a result of the performance of the underlying investments. The timing of distributions depends on particular events, schedules for making distributions, and cash needs related to the investments. As a result, the amount of net investment income from these investments can vary substantially from quarter to quarter. Significant volatility could adversely impact net investment income and returns on these investments. In addition, the valuation of such investments may be impacted by market downturns or volatility.

The determination of the amount of realized capital losses recorded for impairments of our investments is subjective and could materially impact our operating results and financial condition

The determination of the amount of realized capital losses recorded for impairments vary by investment type and is based upon our ongoing evaluation and assessment of known and inherent risks associated with the respective asset class. Such evaluations and assessments are revised as conditions change and new information becomes available. We update our evaluations regularly and reflect changes in other-than-temporary impairments in our results of operations. The assessment of whether other-than-temporary impairments have occurred is based on our case-by-case evaluation of the underlying reasons for the decline in fair value. Our conclusions on such assessments are judgmental and include assumptions and projections of future cash flows and price recovery which may ultimately prove to be incorrect as assumptions, facts and circumstances change. Furthermore, historical trends may not be indicative of future impairments and additional impairments may need to be recorded in the future.

The determination of the fair value of our fixed income and equity securities is subjective and could materially impact our operating results and financial condition

In determining fair values we principally use the market approach which utilizes market transaction data for the same or similar instruments. The degree of judgment involved in determining fair values is inversely related to the availability of market observable information. The fair value of assets may differ from the actual amount received upon sale of an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Moreover, the use of different valuation assumptions may have a material effect on the assets’ fair values. The

 

4


difference between amortized cost or cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes and related DAC, deferred sales inducement costs, and reserves for life-contingent contract benefits, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholder’s equity. Changing market conditions could materially affect the determination of the fair value of securities and unrealized net capital gains and losses could vary significantly.

Risks Relating to the Insurance Industry

Our future growth and profitability are dependent in part on our ability to successfully operate in an insurance industry that is highly competitive

The insurance industry is highly competitive. Many of our primary insurance competitors have well-established national reputations and market similar products.

Because of the competitive nature of the insurance industry, there can be no assurance that we will continue to effectively compete with our industry rivals, or that competitive pressures will not have a material effect on our business, operating results or financial condition. This includes competition for producers such as exclusive agents and their licensed sales professionals. In the event we are unable to attract and retain these producers, they are unable to attract and retain their licensed sales professionals, or they are unable to attract and retain customers for our products, growth and retention could be materially affected. Furthermore, certain competitors operate using a mutual insurance company structure and therefore may have dissimilar profitability and return targets.

Our ability to successfully operate may also be impaired if we are not effective in developing the talent and skills of our human resources, attracting and assimilating new executive talent into our organization, or deploying human resource talent consistently with our business goals.

Difficult conditions in the global economy and capital markets could adversely affect our business and operating results and these conditions may not improve in the near future

As with most businesses, we believe difficult conditions in the global economy and capital markets, such as significant negative macroeconomic trends, including relatively high and sustained unemployment, reduced consumer spending, low economic growth, lower residential and commercial real estate prices, substantial increases in delinquencies on consumer debt, including defaults on home mortgages, the relatively low availability of credit and ineffective central bank monetary policies could have an adverse effect on our business and operating results.

Stressed conditions, volatility and disruptions in global capital markets, particular markets or financial asset classes could adversely affect our investment portfolio. Disruptions in one market or asset class can also spread to other markets or asset classes. Although the disruption in the global financial markets has moderated, not all global financial markets are functioning normally, and the rate of recovery from the U.S. recession has been below historic averages.

In the years since the financial crisis, the central banks of most developed countries have pursued fairly similar, and highly accommodative, monetary policies. As the U.S. Federal Reserve, through the Federal Open Market Committee, raises interest rates and as global monetary policies diverge, it may result in higher volatility and less certainty in capital markets.

General economic conditions could adversely affect us by impacting consumer behavior and pressuring investment results. Consumer behavior changes could include decreased demand for our products. In addition, holders of interest-sensitive life insurance and annuity products may engage in an elevated level of discretionary withdrawals of contractholder funds. Investment results could be adversely affected as deteriorating financial and business conditions affect the issuers of the securities in the investment portfolio.

 

5


Losses from legal and regulatory actions may be material to our operating results, cash flows and financial condition

From time to time we are involved in various legal actions, some of which involve claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts. We are also involved in various regulatory actions and inquiries, including market conduct exams by state insurance regulatory agencies. In the event of an unfavorable outcome in one or more of these matters, the ultimate liability may be in excess of amounts currently accrued, if any, and may be material to our operating results or cash flows for a particular annual period and to our financial condition.

We are subject to extensive regulation and potential further restrictive regulation may increase our operating costs and limit our growth

As an insurance company, we are subject to extensive laws and regulations. These laws and regulations are complex and subject to change. Changes may sometimes lead to additional expenses, increased legal exposure, and additional limits on our ability to grow or to achieve targeted profitability. Moreover, laws and regulations are administered and enforced by a number of different governmental authorities, each of which exercises a degree of interpretive latitude, including state insurance regulators; state securities administrators; state attorneys general and federal agencies including the SEC, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and the U.S. Department of Justice. Consequently, we are subject to the risk that compliance with any particular regulator’s or enforcement authority’s interpretation of a legal issue may not result in compliance with another’s interpretation of the same issue, particularly when compliance is judged in hindsight. In addition, there is risk that any particular regulator’s or enforcement authority’s interpretation of a legal issue may change over time to our detriment, or that changes in the overall legal environment may, even absent any particular regulator’s or enforcement authority’s interpretation of a legal issue changing, cause us to change our views regarding the actions we need to take from a legal risk management perspective, thus necessitating changes to our practices that may, in some cases, limit our ability to grow or to improve the profitability of our business. Furthermore, in some cases, these laws and regulations are designed to protect or benefit the interests of a specific constituency rather than a range of constituencies. For example, state insurance laws and regulations are generally intended to protect or benefit purchasers or users of insurance products. In many respects, these laws and regulations may limit our ability to grow or to improve the profitability of our business.

Regulatory reforms, and the more stringent application of existing regulations, may make it more expensive for us to conduct our business

The federal government has enacted comprehensive regulatory reforms for financial services entities. As part of a larger effort to strengthen the regulation of the financial services market, certain reforms are applicable to the insurance industry, including the Federal Insurance Office (“FIO”) established within the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

In recent years, the state insurance regulatory framework has come under public scrutiny, members of Congress have discussed proposals to provide for federal chartering of insurance companies, and the FIO and Financial Stability Oversight Council (“FSOC”) were established. We can make no assurances regarding the potential impact of state or federal measures that may change the nature or scope of insurance and financial regulation. In addition, the U.S. Department of Labor recently proposed fiduciary standards for financial advisors.

These regulatory reforms and any additional legislative change or regulatory requirements imposed upon us in connection with the federal government’s regulatory reform of the financial services industry, and any more stringent enforcement of existing regulations by federal authorities, may make it more expensive for us to conduct our business, or limit our ability to grow or to achieve profitability.

Reinsurance may be unavailable at current levels and prices, which may limit our ability to write new business

Market conditions beyond our control impact the availability and cost of the reinsurance we purchase. No assurances can be made that reinsurance will remain continuously available to us to the same extent and on the

 

6


same terms and rates as is currently available. If we were unable to maintain our current level of reinsurance or purchase new reinsurance protection in amounts that we consider sufficient and at prices that we consider acceptable, we would have to either accept an increase in our risk exposure, reduce our insurance writings, or develop or seek other alternatives.

Reinsurance subjects us to the credit risk of our reinsurers and may not be adequate to protect us against losses arising from ceded insurance, which could have a material effect on our operating results and financial condition

The collectability of reinsurance recoverables is subject to uncertainty arising from a number of factors, including changes in market conditions, whether insured losses meet the qualifying conditions of the reinsurance contract and whether reinsurers, or their affiliates, have the financial capacity and willingness to make payments under the terms of a reinsurance treaty or contract. Our inability to collect a material recovery from a reinsurer could have a material effect on our operating results and financial condition.

A downgrade in our financial strength ratings may have an adverse effect on our competitive position, the marketability of our product offerings, our liquidity, operating results and financial condition

Financial strength ratings are important factors in establishing the competitive position of insurance companies and generally have an effect on an insurance company’s business. On an ongoing basis, rating agencies review our financial performance and condition and could downgrade or change the outlook on our ratings due to, for example, a change in our statutory capital; a change in a rating agency’s determination of the amount of risk-adjusted capital required to maintain a particular rating; an increase in the perceived risk of our investment portfolio; a reduced confidence in management or our business strategy; as well as a number of other considerations that may or may not be under our control. Our insurance financial strength ratings from A.M. Best, Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s are subject to continuous review, and the retention of current ratings cannot be assured. A downgrade in any of these ratings could have a material effect on our sales, our competitiveness, the marketability of our product offerings, our liquidity, operating results and financial condition.

Adverse capital and credit market conditions may significantly affect our ability to meet liquidity needs or our ability to obtain credit on acceptable terms

In periods of extreme volatility and disruption in the capital and credit markets, liquidity and credit capacity may be severely restricted. In such circumstances, our ability to obtain capital to fund operating expenses may be limited, and the cost of any such capital may be significant. Our access to additional financing will depend on a variety of factors such as market conditions, the general availability of credit, the overall availability of credit to our industry, our credit ratings and credit capacity, as well as lenders’ perception of our long- or short-term financial prospects. Similarly, our access to funds may be impaired if regulatory authorities or rating agencies take negative actions against us. If a combination of these factors were to occur, our internal sources of liquidity may prove to be insufficient and in such case, we may not be able to successfully obtain additional financing on favorable terms.

The failure in cyber or other information security, as well as the occurrence of events unanticipated in our disaster recovery systems and management continuity planning could result in a loss or disclosure of confidential information, damage to our reputation, additional costs and impairment of our ability to conduct business effectively

We depend heavily upon computer systems and mathematical algorithms and data to perform necessary business functions. Despite our implementation of a variety of security measures, we are increasingly exposed to the risk that our computer systems could be subject to cyber-attacks and unauthorized access, such as physical and electronic break-ins or unauthorized tampering. Like other global companies, we have experienced threats to

 

7


our data and systems, including malware and computer virus attacks, unauthorized access, system failures and disruptions. Events such as these could jeopardize the confidential, proprietary and other information (including personal information of our customers or employees) processed and stored in, and transmitted through, our computer systems and networks, or otherwise cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations, which could result in damage to our reputation, financial losses, litigation, increased costs, regulatory penalties and/or customer dissatisfaction or loss. These risks may increase in the future as we continue to expand our internet and mobile strategies and develop additional remote connectivity solutions to serve our customers.

We are continually enhancing our cyber and other information security in order to remain secure against emerging threats, together with increasing our ability to detect system compromise and recover should a cyber-attack or unauthorized access occur. However, there can be no assurance that such events will not take place with adverse consequences to our business, operating results and financial condition.

The occurrence of a disaster, such as a natural catastrophe, pandemic, industrial accident, blackout, terrorist attack, war, cyber-attack, computer virus, insider threat, unanticipated problems with our disaster recovery systems, or a support failure from external providers, could have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct business and on our results of operations and financial condition, particularly if those events affect our computer-based data processing, transmission, storage, and retrieval systems or destroy data. If a significant number of our managers were unavailable in the event of a disaster, our ability to effectively conduct our business could be severely compromised.

Third parties to whom we outsource certain of our functions are also subject to the risks outlined above. Any of these may result in our incurring substantial costs and other negative consequences, including a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

A large scale pandemic, the continued threat or incurrence of terrorism or military actions may have an adverse effect on the level of claim losses we incur, the value of our investment portfolio, our competitive position, marketability of product offerings, liquidity and operating results

A large scale pandemic, the continued threat or incurrence of terrorism, within the U.S. and abroad, or military and other actions, and heightened security measures in response to these types of threats, may cause significant volatility and losses in our investment portfolio from declines in the equity markets and from interest rate changes in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere, and result in loss of life, property damage, disruptions to commerce and reduced economic activity. Some of the assets in our investment portfolio may be adversely affected by declines in the equity markets and reduced economic activity caused by a large scale pandemic or the continued threat of terrorism. Additionally, a large scale pandemic or terrorist act could have a material effect on the sales, profitability, competitiveness, marketability of product offerings, liquidity, and operating results.

Changes in accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard-setting bodies may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition

Our financial statements are subject to the application of generally accepted accounting principles, which are periodically revised, interpreted and/or expanded. Accordingly, we are required to adopt new guidance or interpretations, or could be subject to existing guidance as we enter into new transactions, which may have a material effect on our results of operations and financial condition that is either unexpected or has a greater impact than expected. For a description of changes in accounting standards that are currently pending and, if known, our estimates of their expected impact, see Note 2 of the financial statements.

The realization of deferred tax assets is subject to uncertainty

The realization of our deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance, if any, is based on our assumption that we will be able to fully utilize the deductions that are ultimately recognized for tax purposes. However, actual results may differ from our assumptions if adequate levels of taxable income are not attained.

Loss of key vendor relationships or failure of a vendor to protect our data, confidential and proprietary information, or personal information of our customers or employees could affect our operations

We rely on services and products provided by many vendors in the U.S. and abroad. These include, for example, vendors of computer hardware and software and vendors of investment management services. In the event that one or more of our vendors suffers a bankruptcy or otherwise becomes unable to continue to provide products or services, or fails to protect our data, confidential and proprietary information, or personal information of our customers or employees, we may suffer operational impairments and financial losses.

We may not be able to protect our intellectual property and may be subject to infringement claims

We rely on a combination of contractual rights and copyright, trademark, patent and trade secret laws to establish and protect our intellectual property. Although we use a broad range of measures to protect intellectual property rights, third parties may infringe or misappropriate intellectual property. We may have to litigate to enforce and protect intellectual property and to determine its scope, validity or enforceability, which could divert significant resources and prove unsuccessful. An inability to protect intellectual property could have a material effect on our business.

We may be subject to claims by third parties for patent, trademark or copyright infringement or breach of usage rights. Any such claims and any resulting litigation could result in significant expense and liability. If third party providers or we are found to have infringed a third-party intellectual property right, either of us could be enjoined from providing certain products or services or from utilizing and benefiting from certain methods, processes, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or licenses. Alternatively, we could be required to enter into costly licensing arrangements with third parties or implement a costly work around. Any of these scenarios could have a material effect on our business and results of operations.

Item 11(a). Description of Business

Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York (“Allstate Life of New York” or “ALNY”) was incorporated in 1967 as a stock life insurance company under the laws of the State of New York. In 1984, Allstate Life of New York was purchased by Allstate Life Insurance Company (“ALIC”). Allstate Life of New York is a wholly owned subsidiary of ALIC, a stock life insurance company incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois. ALIC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Insurance Company (“AIC”), a stock property-liability insurance company organized under the laws of the State of Illinois. All of the outstanding stock of AIC is owned by Allstate Insurance Holdings, LLC, which is wholly owned by The Allstate Corporation (the “Corporation”), a publicly owned holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Allstate Corporation is the largest publicly held personal lines insurer in the United States. Widely known through the “You’re In Good Hands With Allstate®” slogan, Allstate is the 2nd largest personal property and casualty insurer in the United States on the basis of 2014 statutory direct premiums written according to A.M. Best. In addition, according to A.M. Best, it is the nation’s 19th largest issuer of life insurance business on the basis of 2014 ordinary life insurance in force and 31st largest on the basis of 2014 statutory admitted assets.

In our reports, we occasionally refer to statutory financial information. All domestic United States insurance companies are required to prepare statutory-basis financial statements. As a result, industry data is available that enables comparisons between insurance companies, including competitors that are not subject to the requirement to prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We frequently use industry publications containing statutory financial information to assess our competitive position.

We sell traditional, interest-sensitive and variable life insurance and voluntary accident and health insurance products to customers in the state of New York. We sell products through Allstate exclusive agencies and exclusive financial specialists, and workplace enrolling independent agents. We previously offered and continue to have in force fixed annuities such as deferred and immediate annuities.

We compete on a wide variety of factors, including product offerings, brand recognition, financial strength and ratings, price, distribution and the level of customer service. The market for life insurance continues to be highly fragmented and competitive. As of December 31, 2014, there were approximately 400 groups of life insurance companies in the United States, most of which offered one or more similar products.

Allstate Life of New York is subject to extensive regulation, primarily, but not exclusively, from the New York Department of Financial Services. The method, extent, and substance of such regulation generally has its source in statutes that establish standards and requirements for conducting the business of insurance and that delegate regulatory authority to the New York Department of Financial Services. These rules have a substantial effect on our business and relate to a wide variety of matters, including insurer solvency, reserve adequacy, insurance company licensing and examination, agent licensing, policy forms, rate setting, the nature and amount of investments, claims practices, participation in guaranty funds, transactions with affiliates, the payment of dividends, underwriting standards, statutory accounting methods, trade practices, and corporate governance. For a discussion of statutory financial information, see Note 13 of the financial statements. For a discussion of regulatory contingencies, see Note 11 of the financial statements. Notes 11 and 13 are incorporated in this, Item 11(a) by reference.

In recent years, the state insurance regulatory framework has come under increased federal scrutiny. As part of an effort to strengthen the regulation of the financial services market, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank”) was enacted in 2010. Some regulations required pursuant to this law must still be finalized, and, until such time, we are unable to determine the impact on Allstate Life of New York’s operations. Dodd-Frank also created the Federal Insurance Office (“FIO”) within the U.S. Department of the Treasury. The FIO monitors the insurance industry, provides advice to the Financial Stability Oversight Council (“FSOC”), represents the U.S. on international insurance matters, and studies the current regulatory system. FIO submitted reports to Congress in 2013 and 2014 addressing how to improve and modernize the

 

10


system of insurance regulation. In addition, state legislators and insurance regulators continue to examine the appropriate nature and scope of state insurance regulation. We cannot predict whether any specific state or federal measures will be adopted to change the nature or scope of the regulation of insurance or what effect any such measures would have on Allstate Life of New York.

Additional regulations or new requirements may emerge from activities of various regulatory entities, including the Federal Reserve Board, FIO, FSOC, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”), and the International Association of Insurance Supervisors (“IAIS”), that are evaluating solvency and capital standards for insurance company groups. In addition, the NAIC has adopted amendments to its model holding company law, which have been adopted by some jurisdictions. The outcome of these actions is uncertain; however, these actions may result in an increase in the level of capital and liquidity required by insurance holding companies.

In April 2015, the U.S. Department of Labor issued a proposed regulation that would, if finalized in its current form, expand the range of activities that would be considered to be “investment advice” and establish a new framework for determining whether a person is a fiduciary when mutual funds or variable annuities are sold in connection with an Individual Retirement Account or an employee benefit plan covered under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. If enacted in its current form, the proposed regulation could have an adverse impact on the products that The Allstate Corporation’s broker-dealer, Allstate Financial Services, LLC (“AFS”), will be able to provide. Because we cannot predict the exact nature and extent of changes that may be made to the proposed regulation when finalized, the potential effect on Allstate Life of New York’s business is undeterminable at this time.

 

Item 11(b). Description of Property

Allstate Life of New York occupies office space in Hauppauge, New York and Northbrook, Illinois that is owned or leased by Allstate Insurance Company. Expenses associated with these facilities are allocated to us on both a direct and an indirect basis, depending on the nature and use. We believe that these facilities are suitable and adequate for our current operations.

 

Item 11(c). Legal Proceedings

Item 11(e). Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of

Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York

Hauppauge, New York

We have audited the accompanying Statements of Financial Position of Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York (the “Company”), an affiliate of The Allstate Corporation, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, Shareholder’s Equity, and Cash Flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. Our audits also included Schedule I-Summary of Investments Other Than Investments in Related Parties, Schedule IV-Reinsurance, and Schedule V-Valuation Allowances and Qualifying Accounts. These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, Schedule I-Summary of Investments Other Than Investments in Related Parties, Schedule IV-Reinsurance, and Schedule V-Valuation Allowances and Qualifying Accounts, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. General

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”). AIC is wholly owned by Allstate Insurance Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Allstate Corporation (the “Corporation”). These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

To conform to the current year presentation, certain amounts in the prior year notes to financial statements have been reclassified.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Nature of operations

The Company sells traditional, interest-sensitive and variable life insurance and voluntary accident and health insurance products to customers in the State of New York. The Company distributes its products through Allstate exclusive agencies and exclusive financial specialists, and workplace enrolling independent agents. The Company previously offered and continues to have in force fixed annuities such as deferred and immediate annuities.

The Company has exposure to market risk as a result of its investment portfolio. Market risk is the risk that the Company will incur realized and unrealized net capital losses due to adverse changes in interest rates, credit spreads, equity prices or currency exchange rates. The Company’s primary market risk exposures are to changes in interest rates, credit spreads and equity prices. Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss due to adverse changes in interest rates relative to the interest rate characteristics of its interest bearing assets and liabilities. This risk arises from many of the Company’s primary activities, as it invests substantial funds in interest-sensitive assets and issues interest-sensitive liabilities. Interest rate risk includes risks related to changes in U.S. Treasury yields and other key risk-free reference yields. Credit spread risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss due to adverse changes in credit spreads. This risk arises from many of the Company’s primary

 

17


activities, as the Company invests substantial funds in spread-sensitive fixed income assets. Equity price risk is the risk that the Company will incur losses due to adverse changes in the general levels of the equity markets.

The Company monitors economic and regulatory developments that have the potential to impact its business. Federal and state laws and regulations affect the taxation of insurance companies and life insurance products. Congress and various state legislatures from time to time consider legislation that would reduce or eliminate the favorable policyholder tax treatment currently applicable to life insurance. Congress and various state legislatures also consider proposals to reduce the taxation of certain products or investments that may compete with life insurance. Legislation that increases the taxation on insurance products or reduces the taxation on competing products could lessen the advantage or create a disadvantage for certain of the Company’s products making them less competitive. Such proposals, if adopted, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or ability to sell such products and could result in the surrender of some existing contracts and policies. In addition, changes in the federal estate tax laws could negatively affect the demand for the types of life insurance used in estate planning.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Investments

Fixed income securities include bonds, residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), asset-backed securities (“ABS”) and redeemable preferred stocks. Fixed income securities, which may be sold prior to their contractual maturity, are designated as available for sale and are carried at fair value. The difference between amortized cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes and related deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”), deferred sales inducement costs (“DSI”) and reserves for life-contingent contract benefits, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Cash received from calls and make-whole payments is reflected as a component of proceeds from sales and cash received from maturities and pay-downs is reflected as a component of investment collections within the Statements of Cash Flows.

Mortgage loans are carried at unpaid principal balances, net of unamortized premium or discount and valuation allowances. Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans when it is probable that contractual principal and interest will not be collected.

Equity securities primarily include common stocks, exchange traded funds, non-redeemable preferred stocks and real estate investment trust equity investments. Equity securities are designated as available for sale and are carried at fair value. The difference between cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Investments in limited partnership interests include interests in private equity funds and co-investments, real estate funds, and other funds. Where the Company’s interest is so minor that it exercises virtually no influence over operating and financial policies, investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the cost method of accounting; all other investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting (“EMA”).

Short-term investments, including money market funds, commercial paper and other short-term investments, are carried at fair value. Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances. Other investments consist of derivatives. Derivatives are carried at fair value.

Investment income primarily consists of interest, dividends, income from limited partnership interests, and income from certain derivative transactions. Interest is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method and dividends are recorded at the ex-dividend date. Interest income for RMBS, CMBS and ABS is determined considering estimated pay-downs, including prepayments, obtained from third party data sources and

 

18


internal estimates. Actual prepayment experience is periodically reviewed and effective yields are recalculated when differences arise between the prepayments originally anticipated and the actual prepayments received and currently anticipated. For RMBS, CMBS and ABS of high credit quality with fixed interest rates, the effective yield is recalculated on a retrospective basis. For all others, the effective yield is recalculated on a prospective basis. Accrual of income is suspended for other-than-temporarily impaired fixed income securities when the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be received is not reasonably estimable. Accrual of income is suspended for mortgage loans that are in default or when full and timely collection of principal and interest payments is not probable. Cash receipts on investments on nonaccrual status are generally recorded as a reduction of carrying value. Income from cost method limited partnership interests is recognized upon receipt of amounts distributed by the partnerships. Income from EMA limited partnership interests is recognized based on the Company’s share of the partnerships’ net income, including unrealized gains and losses, and is generally recognized on a three month delay due to the availability of the related financial statements.

Realized capital gains and losses include gains and losses on investment sales, write-downs in value due to other-than-temporary declines in fair value, adjustments to valuation allowances on mortgage loans, and periodic changes in fair value and settlements of certain derivatives including hedge ineffectiveness. Realized capital gains and losses on investment sales are determined on a specific identification basis.

Derivative and embedded derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments include options, interest rate caps, foreign currency forwards and a reinvestment related risk transfer reinsurance agreement with ALIC that meets the accounting definition of a derivative (see Note 4). Derivatives required to be separated from the host instrument and accounted for as derivative financial instruments (“subject to bifurcation”) are embedded in certain fixed income securities, equity-indexed life contracts and reinsured variable annuity contracts.

All derivatives are accounted for on a fair value basis and reported as other investments, other assets, other liabilities and accrued expenses or contractholder funds. The income statement effects of derivatives, including fair value gains and losses and accrued periodic settlements, are reported in realized capital gains and losses or in a single line item together with the results of the associated liability for which risks are being managed. Embedded derivative instruments subject to bifurcation are also accounted for on a fair value basis and are reported together with the host contract. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in certain fixed income securities and subject to bifurcation is reported in realized capital gains and losses. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in life and annuity product contracts and subject to bifurcation is reported in contract benefits or interest credited to contractholder funds. Cash flows from embedded derivatives subject to bifurcation are reported consistently with the host contracts within the Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from other derivatives are reported in cash flows from investing activities within the Statements of Cash Flows.

Securities loaned

The Company’s business activities include securities lending transactions, which are used primarily to generate net investment income. The proceeds received in conjunction with securities lending transactions are reinvested in short-term investments. These transactions are short-term in nature, usually 30 days or less.

The Company receives cash collateral for securities loaned in an amount generally equal to 102% of the fair value of securities and records the related obligations to return the collateral in other liabilities and accrued expenses. The carrying value of these obligations approximates fair value because of their relatively short-term nature. The Company monitors the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and obtains additional collateral as necessary under the terms of the agreements to mitigate counterparty credit risk. The Company maintains the right and ability to repossess the securities loaned on short notice.

Recognition of premium revenues and contract charges, and related benefits and interest credited

Traditional life insurance products consist principally of products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits, primarily term and whole life insurance products. Voluntary accident and health insurance products are expected to remain in force for an extended period and therefore are primarily classified as long-duration contracts. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when due from policyholders. Benefits are reflected in contract benefits and recognized in relation to premiums, so that profits are recognized over the life of the policy.

Immediate annuities with life contingencies, including certain structured settlement annuities, provide insurance protection over a period that extends beyond the period during which premiums are collected. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when received at the inception of the contract. Benefits and expenses are recognized in relation to premiums. Profits from these policies come from investment income, which is recognized over the life of the contract.

Interest-sensitive life contracts, such as universal life and single premium life, are insurance contracts whose terms are not fixed and guaranteed. The terms that may be changed include premiums paid by the contractholder, interest credited to the contractholder account balance and contract charges assessed against the contractholder account balance. Premiums from these contracts are reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for the cost of insurance (mortality risk), contract administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. These contract charges are recognized as revenue when assessed against the contractholder account balance. Contract benefits include life-contingent benefit payments in excess of the contractholder account balance.

Contracts that do not subject the Company to significant risk arising from mortality or morbidity are referred to as investment contracts. Fixed annuities, including market value adjusted annuities and immediate annuities without life contingencies, are considered investment contracts. Consideration received for such contracts is reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges for investment contracts consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for maintenance, administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates, and are recognized when assessed against the contractholder account balance.

Interest credited to contractholder funds represents interest accrued or paid on interest-sensitive life and investment contracts. Crediting rates for certain fixed annuities and interest-sensitive life contracts are adjusted periodically by the Company to reflect current market conditions subject to contractually guaranteed minimum rates. Crediting rates for indexed life contracts are generally based on an equity index, such as the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index. Interest credited also includes amortization of DSI expenses. DSI is amortized into interest credited using the same method used to amortize DAC.

Contract charges for variable life and variable annuity products consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balances for contract maintenance, administration, mortality, expense and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. Contract benefits incurred for variable annuity products include guaranteed minimum death, income, withdrawal and accumulation benefits. All of the Company’s variable annuity business is ceded through reinsurance agreements and the contract charges and contract benefits related thereto are reported net of reinsurance ceded.

Deferred policy acquisition and sales inducement costs

Costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal life insurance and investment contracts are deferred and recorded as DAC. These costs are principally agents’ and brokers’ remuneration and certain underwriting expenses. DSI costs, which are deferred and recorded as other assets, relate to sales inducements offered on sales to new customers, principally on fixed annuity and interest-sensitive life contracts.

 

20


These sales inducements are primarily in the form of additional credits to the customer’s account balance or enhancements to interest credited for a specified period which are in excess of the rates currently being credited to similar contracts without sales inducements. All other acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and included in operating costs and expenses. Amortization of DAC is included in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and is described in more detail below. DSI is amortized into income using the same methodology and assumptions as DAC and is included in interest credited to contractholder funds.

For traditional life insurance, DAC is amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the estimated revenues on such business. Assumptions used in the amortization of DAC and reserve calculations are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not revised during the life of the policy. Any deviations from projected business in force resulting from actual policy terminations differing from expected levels and any estimated premium deficiencies may result in a change to the rate of amortization in the period such events occur. Generally, the amortization periods for these policies approximates the estimated lives of the policies. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. The Company aggregates all traditional life insurance products and immediate annuities with life contingencies in the analysis. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required.

For interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities, DAC and DSI are amortized in proportion to the incidence of the total present value of gross profits, which includes both actual historical gross profits (“AGP”) and estimated future gross profits (“EGP”) expected to be earned over the estimated lives of the contracts. The amortization is net of interest on the prior period DAC balance using rates established at the inception of the contracts. Actual amortization periods generally range from 15-30 years; however, incorporating estimates of the rate of customer surrenders, partial withdrawals and deaths generally results in the majority of the DAC being amortized during the surrender charge period, which is typically 10-20 years for interest-sensitive life and 5-10 years for fixed annuities. The cumulative DAC and DSI amortization is reestimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income when there is a difference between the incidence of actual versus expected gross profits in a reporting period or when there is a change in total EGP. When DAC or DSI amortization or a component of gross profits for a quarterly period is potentially negative (which would result in an increase of the DAC or DSI balance) as a result of negative AGP, the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the potential negative amortization are considered to determine whether it is appropriate for recognition in the financial statements. Negative amortization is only recorded when the increased DAC or DSI balance is determined to be recoverable based on facts and circumstances. Recapitalization of DAC and DSI is limited to the originally deferred costs plus interest.

AGP and EGP primarily consist of the following components: contract charges for the cost of insurance less mortality costs and other benefits; investment income and realized capital gains and losses less interest credited; and surrender and other contract charges less maintenance expenses. The principal assumptions for determining the amount of EGP are persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses on assets supporting contract liabilities, interest crediting rates to contractholders, and the effects of any hedges. For products whose supporting investments are exposed to capital losses in excess of the Company’s expectations which may cause periodic AGP to become temporarily negative, EGP and AGP utilized in DAC and DSI amortization may be modified to exclude the excess capital losses.

The Company performs quarterly reviews of DAC and DSI recoverability for interest-sensitive life and fixed annuity contracts in the aggregate using current assumptions. If a change in the amount of EGP is significant, it could result in the unamortized DAC or DSI not being recoverable, resulting in a charge which is included as a component of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.

 

21


The DAC and DSI balances presented include adjustments to reflect the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized capital gains or losses in the respective product investment portfolios were actually realized. The adjustments are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income. DAC, DSI and deferred income taxes determined on unrealized capital gains and losses and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income recognize the impact on shareholder’s equity consistently with the amounts that would be recognized in the income statement on realized capital gains and losses.

Customers of the Company may exchange one insurance policy or investment contract for another offered by the Company, or make modifications to an existing investment or life contract issued by the Company. These transactions are identified as internal replacements for accounting purposes. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in replacement contracts that are substantially unchanged from the replaced contracts are accounted for as continuations of the replaced contracts. Unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts continue to be deferred and amortized in connection with the replacement contracts. For interest-sensitive life and investment contracts, the EGP of the replacement contracts are treated as a revision to the EGP of the replaced contracts in the determination of amortization of DAC and DSI. For traditional life insurance policies, any changes to unamortized DAC that result from replacement contracts are treated as prospective revisions. Any costs associated with the issuance of replacement contracts are characterized as maintenance costs and expensed as incurred. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in a substantial change to the replaced contracts are accounted for as an extinguishment of the replaced contracts, and any unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts are eliminated with a corresponding charge to amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.

Reinsurance

In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to limit aggregate and single exposure to losses on large risks by purchasing reinsurance. The Company has also used reinsurance to effect the disposition of certain blocks of business. The amounts reported as reinsurance recoverables include amounts billed to reinsurers on losses paid as well as estimates of amounts expected to be recovered from reinsurers on insurance liabilities and contractholder funds that have not yet been paid. Reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses are estimated based upon assumptions consistent with those used in establishing the liabilities related to the underlying reinsured contracts. Insurance liabilities are reported gross of reinsurance recoverables. Reinsurance premiums are generally reflected in income in a manner consistent with the recognition of premiums on the reinsured contracts. Reinsurance does not extinguish the Company’s primary liability under the policies written. Therefore, the Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and establishes allowances for uncollectible reinsurance as appropriate.

The Company has a reinsurance treaty with ALIC through which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities. The terms of the treaty meet the accounting definition of a derivative. Accordingly, the treaty is recorded in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the treaty and premiums paid to ALIC are recognized in realized capital gains and losses.

Income taxes

The income tax provision is calculated under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates. The principal assets and liabilities giving rise to such differences are unrealized capital gains and losses, differences in tax bases of invested assets, insurance reserves and DAC. A deferred tax asset valuation allowance is established when there is uncertainty that such assets will be realized.

 

22


Reserve for life-contingent contract benefits

The reserve for life-contingent contract benefits payable under insurance policies, including traditional life insurance, life-contingent immediate annuities and voluntary accident and health insurance products, is computed on the basis of long-term actuarial assumptions of future investment yields, mortality, morbidity, policy terminations and expenses. These assumptions, which for traditional life insurance are applied using the net level premium method, include provisions for adverse deviation and generally vary by characteristics such as type of coverage, year of issue and policy duration. The assumptions are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not changed during the life of the policy. The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of reserves for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required. To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities would result in a premium deficiency if those gains were realized, the related increase in reserves for certain immediate annuities with life contingencies is recorded net of tax as a reduction of unrealized net capital gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Contractholder funds

Contractholder funds represent interest-bearing liabilities arising from the sale of products such as interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities. Contractholder funds primarily comprise cumulative deposits received and interest credited to the contractholder less cumulative contract benefits, surrenders, withdrawals and contract charges for mortality or administrative expenses. Contractholder funds also include reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance and certain fixed annuity contracts and reserves for certain guarantees on reinsured variable annuity contracts.

Separate accounts

Separate accounts assets are carried at fair value. The assets of the separate accounts are legally segregated and available only to settle separate account contract obligations. Separate accounts liabilities represent the contractholders’ claims to the related assets and are carried at an amount equal to the separate accounts assets. 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 and Comprehensive Income. Deposits to and surrenders and withdrawals from the separate accounts are reflected in separate accounts liabilities and are not included in cash flows.

Absent any contract provision wherein the Company provides a guarantee, variable annuity and variable life insurance contractholders bear the investment risk that the separate accounts’ funds may not meet their stated investment objectives. All of the Company’s variable annuity business was reinsured beginning in 2006.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments

Commitments to invest, commitments to extend mortgage loans and financial guarantees have off-balance sheet risk because their contractual amounts are not recorded in the Company’s Statements of Financial Position (see Note 7 and Note 11).

Pending accounting standards

Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance affecting the consolidation evaluation for limited partnerships and similar entities, fees paid to a decision maker or service

 

23


provider, and variable interests in a variable interest entity held by related parties of the reporting enterprise. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of adoption which is not expected to be material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring equity investments, including equity securities and limited partnership interests, that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting or result in consolidation to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values may be measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. When a qualitative assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values indicates that impairment exists, the carrying value is required to be adjusted to fair value, if lower. The guidance clarifies that an entity should evaluate the realizability of a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale fixed income securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. The guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained income as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance related to equity investments without readily determinable fair values is to be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption. The most significant impact is expected to be the change in accounting for equity securities and cost method limited partnership interests.

 

3. Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Non-cash investing activities include $1.6 million, $22 thousand and $5.0 million related to modifications of certain mortgage loans and fixed income securities, as well as mergers completed with equity securities in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and a $4.7 million obligation to fund a limited partnership investment in 2015.

Liabilities for collateral received in conjunction with the Company’s securities lending program were $99.7 million, $101.1 million and $62.6 million as of December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and are reported in other liabilities and accrued expenses. The accompanying cash flows are included in cash flows from operating activities in the Statements of Cash Flows along with the activities resulting from management of the proceeds, which for the years ended December 31 are as follows:

4. Related Party Transactions

Business operations

The Company uses services performed by its affiliates, AIC, ALIC and Allstate Investments LLC, and business facilities owned or leased and operated by AIC in conducting its business activities. In addition, the Company shares the services of employees with AIC. The Company reimburses its affiliates for the operating

 

24


expenses incurred on behalf of the Company. The Company is charged for the cost of these operating expenses based on the level of services provided. Operating expenses, including compensation, retirement and other benefit programs (see Note 14), allocated to the Company were $39.0 million, $44.1 million and $54.2 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. A portion of these expenses relate to the acquisition of business, which are deferred and amortized into income as described in Note 2.

Structured settlement annuities

The Company issued $0.9 million of structured settlement annuities, a type of immediate annuity, in 2013 at prices determined using interest rates in effect at the time of purchase, to fund structured settlements in matters involving AIC. The Company had no amounts related to structured settlement annuities with life contingencies that were included in premium revenue for 2013. Effective March 22, 2013, the Company no longer offers structured settlement annuities.

In most cases, these annuities were issued under a “qualified assignment” whereby Allstate Assignment Company and prior to July 1, 2001 Allstate Settlement Corporation (“ASC”), both wholly owned subsidiaries of ALIC, purchased annuities from the Company and assumed AIC’s obligation to make future payments.

AIC issued surety bonds to guarantee the payment of structured settlement benefits assumed by ASC (from both AIC and non-related parties) and funded by certain annuity contracts issued by the Company through June 30, 2001. ASC entered into a General Indemnity Agreement pursuant to which it indemnified AIC for any liabilities associated with the surety bonds and gave AIC certain collateral security rights with respect to the annuities and certain other rights in the event of any defaults covered by the surety bonds. ALIC guaranteed the payment of structured settlement benefits on all contracts issued on or after July 1, 2001. Reserves recorded by the Company for annuities that are guaranteed by the surety bonds of AIC were $1.41 billion as of both December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Reserves recorded by the Company for annuities that are guaranteed by ALIC were $624.5 million and $642.4 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Broker-Dealer agreements

The Company receives distribution services from Allstate Financial Services, LLC, an affiliated broker-dealer company, for certain annuity and variable life insurance contracts sold by Allstate exclusive agencies. For these services, the Company incurred commission and other distribution expenses of $233 thousand, $166 thousand and $246 thousand in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company has a service agreement with Allstate Distributors, LLC (“ADLLC”), a broker-dealer company owned by ALIC, whereby ADLLC promotes and markets products sold by the Company. In return for these services, the Company recorded expense of $23 thousand, $7 thousand and $14 thousand in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Reinsurance

The Company has reinsurance agreements with ALIC whereby a portion of the Company’s premiums and policy benefits are ceded to ALIC (see Note 9).

The Company has a reinsurance treaty through which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities to ALIC. Under the terms of the treaty, the Company pays a premium to ALIC that varies with the aggregate structured settlement annuity statutory reserve balance. In return, ALIC guarantees that the yield on the portion of the Company’s investment portfolio that supports structured settlement annuity liabilities will not fall below contractually determined rates. The Company ceded premium related to structured settlement annuities to ALIC of $3.4 million, $3.4 million and $3.5 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying value of the structured settlement reinsurance treaty was $82.8 million and $84.6 million, respectively, which is recorded in other assets. The premiums ceded and changes in the fair value of the reinsurance treaty are reflected as a component of realized capital gains and losses as the treaty is recorded as a derivative instrument.

 

25


Income taxes

The Company is a party to a federal income tax allocation agreement with the Corporation (see Note 12).

Intercompany loan agreement

The Company has an intercompany loan agreement with the Corporation. The amount of intercompany loans available to the Company is at the discretion of the Corporation. The maximum amount of loans the Corporation will have outstanding to all its eligible subsidiaries at any given point in time is limited to $1 billion. The Corporation may use commercial paper borrowings, bank lines of credit and securities lending to fund intercompany borrowings. The Company had no amounts outstanding under the intercompany loan agreement as of December 31, 2015 or 2014.

The Company uses its best estimate of future cash flows expected to be collected from the fixed income security, discounted at the security’s original or current effective rate, as appropriate, to calculate a recovery value and determine whether a credit loss exists. The determination of cash flow estimates is inherently subjective and methodologies may vary depending on facts and circumstances specific to the security. All reasonably available information relevant to the collectability of the security, including past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable assumptions and forecasts, are considered when developing the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected. That information generally includes, but is not limited to, the remaining payment terms of the security, prepayment speeds, foreign exchange rates, the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer, expected defaults, expected recoveries, the value of underlying collateral, vintage, geographic concentration of underlying collateral, available reserves or escrows, current subordination levels, third party guarantees and other credit enhancements. Other information, such as industry analyst reports and forecasts, sector credit ratings, financial condition of the bond insurer for insured fixed income securities, and other market data relevant to the realizability of contractual cash flows, may also be considered. The estimated fair value of collateral will be used to estimate recovery value if the Company determines that the security is dependent on the liquidation of collateral for ultimate settlement. If the estimated recovery value is less than the amortized cost of the security, a credit loss exists and an other-than-temporary impairment for the difference between the estimated recovery value and amortized cost is recorded in earnings. The portion of the unrealized loss related to factors other than credit remains classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. If the Company determines that the fixed income security does not have sufficient cash flow or other information to estimate a recovery value for the security, the Company may conclude that the entire decline in fair value is deemed to be credit related and the loss is recorded in earnings.

(1) 

Unrealized net capital gains and losses for limited partnership interests represent the Company’s share of EMA limited partnerships’ other comprehensive income. Fair value and gross unrealized gains and losses are not applicable.

(2) 

The insurance reserves adjustment represents the amount by which the reserve balance would increase if the net unrealized gains in the applicable product portfolios were realized and reinvested at current lower interest rates, resulting in a premium deficiency. Although the Company evaluates premium deficiencies on the combined performance of life insurance and immediate annuities with life contingencies, the adjustment primarily relates to structured settlement annuities with life contingencies, in addition to certain payout annuities with life contingencies.

(3) 

The DAC and DSI adjustment balance represents the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized gains or losses in the respective product portfolios were realized.

Portfolio monitoring

The Company has a comprehensive portfolio monitoring process to identify and evaluate each fixed income and equity security whose carrying value may be other-than-temporarily impaired.

For each fixed income security in an unrealized loss position, the Company assesses whether management with the appropriate authority has made the decision to sell or whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of the amortized cost basis for reasons such as liquidity, contractual or regulatory purposes. If a security meets either of these criteria, the security’s decline in fair value is considered other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.

If the Company has not made the decision to sell the fixed income security and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the fixed income security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company evaluates whether it expects to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. The Company calculates the estimated recovery value by discounting the best estimate of future cash flows at the security’s original or current effective rate, as appropriate, and compares this to the amortized cost of the security. If the Company does not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the fixed income security, the credit loss component of the impairment is recorded in earnings, with the remaining amount of the unrealized loss related to other factors recognized in other comprehensive income.

For equity securities, the Company considers various factors, including whether it has the intent and ability to hold the equity security for a period of time sufficient to recover its cost basis. Where the Company lacks the intent and ability to hold to recovery, or believes the recovery period is extended, the equity security’s decline in fair value is considered other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.

For fixed income and equity securities managed by third parties, either the Company has contractually retained its decision making authority as it pertains to selling securities that are in an unrealized loss position or it recognizes any unrealized loss at the end of the period through a charge to earnings.

The Company’s portfolio monitoring process includes a quarterly review of all securities to identify instances where the fair value of a security compared to its amortized cost (for fixed income securities) or cost (for equity securities) is below established thresholds. The process also includes the monitoring of other impairment indicators such as ratings, ratings downgrades and payment defaults. The securities identified, in addition to other securities for which the Company may have a concern, are evaluated for potential other-than-temporary impairment using all reasonably available information relevant to the collectability or recovery of the security. Inherent in the Company’s evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment for these fixed income and equity securities are assumptions and estimates about the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer. Some of the factors that may be considered in evaluating whether a decline in fair value is other than temporary are: 1) the financial condition, near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer, including relevant industry specific market conditions and trends, geographic location and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices; 2) the specific reasons that a security is in an unrealized loss position, including overall market conditions which could affect liquidity; and 3) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost or cost.

As of December 31, 2015, $52.6 million of the $80.0 million unrealized losses are related to securities with an unrealized loss position less than 20% of amortized cost or cost, the degree of which suggests that these securities do not pose a high risk of being other-than-temporarily impaired. Of the $52.6 million, $30.3 million are related to unrealized losses on investment grade fixed income securities and $8.4 million are related to equity securities. Of the remaining $27.4 million, $20.3 million have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months. Investment grade is defined as a security having a rating of Aaa, Aa, A or Baa from Moody’s, a rating of AAA, AA, A or BBB from S&P, Fitch, Dominion, Kroll or Realpoint, a rating of aaa, aa, a or bbb from A.M. Best, or a comparable internal rating if an externally provided rating is not available. Market prices for certain securities may have credit spreads which imply higher or lower credit quality than the current third party rating. Unrealized losses on investment grade securities are principally related to increasing risk-free interest rates or widening credit spreads since the time of initial purchase.

As of December 31, 2015, the remaining $27.4 million of unrealized losses are related to securities in unrealized loss positions greater than or equal to 20% of amortized cost or cost. Investment grade fixed income securities comprising $9.5 million of these unrealized losses were evaluated based on factors such as discounted cash flows and the financial condition and near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer and were determined to have adequate resources to fulfill contractual obligations. Of the $27.4 million, $11.0 million are related to below investment grade fixed income securities and $6.9 million are related to equity securities. Of

 

32


these amounts, $7.1 million are related to below investment grade fixed income securities that had been in an unrealized loss position greater than or equal to 20% of amortized cost for a period of twelve or more consecutive months as of December 31, 2015.

RMBS, CMBS and ABS in an unrealized loss position were evaluated based on actual and projected collateral losses relative to the securities’ positions in the respective securitization trusts, security specific expectations of cash flows, and credit ratings. This evaluation also takes into consideration credit enhancement, measured in terms of (i) subordination from other classes of securities in the trust that are contractually obligated to absorb losses before the class of security the Company owns, (ii) the expected impact of other structural features embedded in the securitization trust beneficial to the class of securities the Company owns, such as overcollateralization and excess spread, and (iii) for RMBS and ABS in an unrealized loss position, credit enhancements from reliable bond insurers, where applicable. Municipal bonds in an unrealized loss position were evaluated based on the underlying credit quality of the primary obligor, obligation type and quality of the underlying assets. Unrealized losses on equity securities are primarily related to temporary equity market fluctuations of securities that are expected to recover.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company has not made the decision to sell and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell fixed income securities with unrealized losses before recovery of the amortized cost basis. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had the intent and ability to hold equity securities with unrealized losses for a period of time sufficient for them to recover.

Limited partnerships

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying value of equity method limited partnerships totaled $216.6 million and $160.4 million, respectively. The Company recognizes an impairment loss for equity method limited partnerships when evidence demonstrates that the loss is other than temporary. Evidence of a loss in value that is other than temporary may include the absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or the inability of the investee to sustain a level of earnings that would justify the carrying amount of the investment.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying value for cost method limited partnerships was $64.5 million and $52.5 million, respectively. To determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, the Company evaluates whether an impairment indicator has occurred in the period that may have a significant adverse effect on the carrying value of the investment. Impairment indicators may include: significantly reduced valuations of the investments held by the limited partnerships; actual recent cash flows received being significantly less than expected cash flows; reduced valuations based on financing completed at a lower value; completed sale of a material underlying investment at a price significantly lower than expected; or any other adverse events since the last financial statements received that might affect the fair value of the investee’s capital. Additionally, the Company’s portfolio monitoring process includes a quarterly review of all cost method limited partnerships to identify instances where the net asset value is below established thresholds for certain periods of time, as well as investments that are performing below expectations, for further impairment consideration. If a cost method limited partnership is other-than-temporarily impaired, the carrying value is written down to fair value, generally estimated to be equivalent to the reported net asset value.

Mortgage loans

The Company’s mortgage loans are commercial mortgage loans collateralized by a variety of commercial real estate property types located across the United States and totaled, net of valuation allowance, $614.2 million and $493.8 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Substantially all of the commercial mortgage loans are non-recourse to the borrower.

Mortgage loans are evaluated for impairment on a specific loan basis through a quarterly credit monitoring process and review of key credit quality indicators. Mortgage loans are considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will not collect the contractual principal and interest. Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans to reduce the carrying value to the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell or the present value of the loan’s expected future repayment cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate. Impaired mortgage loans may not have a valuation allowance when the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell is higher than the carrying value. Valuation allowances are adjusted for subsequent changes in the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell or present value of the loan’s expected future repayment cash flows. Mortgage loans are charged off against their corresponding valuation allowances when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The impairment evaluation is non-statistical in respect to the aggregate portfolio but considers facts and circumstances attributable to each loan. It is not considered probable that additional impairment losses, beyond those identified on a specific loan basis, have been incurred as of December 31, 2015.

Accrual of income is suspended for mortgage loans that are in default or when full and timely collection of principal and interest payments is not probable. Cash receipts on mortgage loans on nonaccrual status are generally recorded as a reduction of carrying value.

Debt service coverage ratio is considered a key credit quality indicator when mortgage loans are evaluated for impairment. Debt service coverage ratio represents the amount of estimated cash flows from the property available to the borrower to meet principal and interest payment obligations. Debt service coverage ratio estimates are updated annually or more frequently if conditions are warranted based on the Company’s credit monitoring process.

Mortgage loans with a debt service coverage ratio below 1.0 that are not considered impaired primarily relate to instances where the borrower has the financial capacity to fund the revenue shortfalls from the properties for the foreseeable term, the decrease in cash flows from the properties is considered temporary, or there are other risk mitigating circumstances such as additional collateral, escrow balances or borrower guarantees.

There were no impaired mortgage loans as of December 31, 2015 or 2014. The average balance of impaired loans was $2.4 million and $7.6 million during 2014 and 2013, respectively.

6. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is defined 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. The hierarchy for inputs used in determining fair value maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Assets and liabilities recorded on the Statements of Financial Position at fair value are categorized in the fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

 

Level 1: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company can access.

 

Level 2: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:

 

  (a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

 

  (b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or

 

  (c) Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

Level 3: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the assets and liabilities.

The availability of observable inputs varies by instrument. In situations where fair value is based on internally developed pricing models or inputs that are unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. The degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is typically greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. In many instances, valuation inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The category level in the fair value hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruption, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments.

The Company is responsible for the determination of fair value and the supporting assumptions and methodologies. The Company gains assurance that assets and liabilities are appropriately valued through the execution of various processes and controls designed to ensure the overall reasonableness and consistent application of valuation methodologies, including inputs and assumptions, and compliance with accounting standards. For fair values received from third parties or internally estimated, the Company’s processes and

 

36


controls are designed to ensure that the valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistently applied, the inputs and assumptions are reasonable and consistent with the objective of determining fair value, and the fair values are accurately recorded. For example, on a continuing basis, the Company assesses the reasonableness of individual fair values that have stale security prices or that exceed certain thresholds as compared to previous fair values received from valuation service providers or brokers or derived from internal models. The Company performs procedures to understand and assess the methodologies, processes and controls of valuation service providers. In addition, the Company may validate the reasonableness of fair values by comparing information obtained from valuation service providers or brokers to other third party valuation sources for selected securities. The Company performs ongoing price validation procedures such as back-testing of actual sales, which corroborate the various inputs used in internal models to market observable data. When fair value determinations are expected to be more variable, the Company validates them through reviews by members of management who have relevant expertise and who are independent of those charged with executing investment transactions.

The Company has two types of situations where investments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The first is where specific inputs significant to the fair value estimation models are not market observable. This primarily occurs in the Company’s use of broker quotes to value certain securities where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable, and the use of valuation models that use significant non-market observable inputs.

The second situation where the Company classifies securities in Level 3 is where quotes continue to be received from independent third-party valuation service providers and all significant inputs are market observable; however, there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset when compared to normal market activity such that the degree of market observability has declined to a point where categorization as a Level 3 measurement is considered appropriate. The indicators considered in determining whether a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for a specific asset has occurred include the level of new issuances in the primary market, trading volume in the secondary market, the level of credit spreads over historical levels, applicable bid-ask spreads, and price consensus among market participants and other pricing sources.

Certain assets are not carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including investments such as mortgage loans, limited partnership interests and policy loans. Accordingly, such investments are only included in the fair value hierarchy disclosure when the investment is subject to remeasurement at fair value after initial recognition and the resulting remeasurement is reflected in the financial statements. In addition, derivatives embedded in fixed income securities are not disclosed in the hierarchy as free-standing derivatives since they are presented with the host contracts in fixed income securities.

In determining fair value, the Company principally uses the market approach which generally utilizes market transaction data for the same or similar instruments. To a lesser extent, the Company uses the income approach which involves determining fair values from discounted cash flow methodologies. For the majority of Level 2 and Level 3 valuations, a combination of the market and income approaches is used.

Summary of significant valuation techniques for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Level 1 measurements

 

   

Fixed income securities: Comprise certain U.S. Treasury fixed income securities. Valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access.

 

   

Equity securities: Comprise actively traded, exchange-listed equity securities. Valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access.

 

   

Short-term: Comprise U.S Treasury bills valued on unadjusted quoted process for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access and actively traded money market funds that have daily quoted net asset values for identical assets that the Company can access.

 

37


   

Separate account assets: Comprise actively traded mutual funds that have daily quoted net asset values for identical assets that the Company can access. Net asset values for the actively traded mutual funds in which the separate account assets are invested are obtained daily from the fund managers.

Level 2 measurements

 

   

Fixed income securities:

U.S. government and agencies: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

Municipal: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

Corporate—public: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

Corporate—privately placed: Valued using a discounted cash flow model that is widely accepted in the financial services industry and uses market observable inputs and inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. The primary inputs to the discounted cash flow model include an interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar assets in markets that are not active that incorporate the credit quality and industry sector of the issuer.

Foreign government: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

RMBS: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, prepayment speeds, collateral performance and credit spreads.

CMBS: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, collateral performance and credit spreads.

ABS—consumer and other: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, prepayment speeds, collateral performance and credit spreads. Certain ABS—consumer and other are valued based on non-binding broker quotes whose inputs have been corroborated to be market observable.

Redeemable preferred stock: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, underlying stock prices and credit spreads.

 

   

Equity securities: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices or quoted net asset values for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active.

 

   

Short-term: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads. For certain short-term investments, amortized cost is used as the best estimate of fair value.

 

   

Other investments: Free-standing exchange listed derivatives that are not actively traded are valued based on quoted prices for identical instruments in markets that are not active.

Over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives, including foreign exchange forward contracts and options, are valued using models that rely on inputs such as currency rates that are observable for substantially the full term of the contract. The valuation techniques underlying the models are widely accepted in the financial services industry and do not involve significant judgment.

 

38


Level 3 measurements

 

   

Fixed income securities:

Municipal: Comprise municipal bonds that are not rated by third party credit rating agencies but are rated by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”). The primary inputs to the valuation of these municipal bonds include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that exhibit less liquidity relative to those markets supporting Level 2 fair value measurements, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Also included are municipal bonds valued based on non-binding broker quotes where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable and municipal bonds in default valued based on the present value of expected cash flows. Also includes auction rate securities (“ARS”) primarily backed by student loans that have become illiquid due to failures in the auction market and are valued using a discounted cash flow model that is widely accepted in the financial services industry and uses significant non-market observable inputs, including the anticipated date liquidity will return to the market.

Corporate—public and Corporate—privately placed: Primarily valued based on non-binding broker quotes where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable.

ABS—collateralized debt obligations (“CDO”) and ABS—consumer and other: Valued based on non-binding broker quotes received from brokers who are familiar with the investments and where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable.

 

   

Equity securities: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices or quoted net asset values for identical or similar assets in markets that exhibit less liquidity relative to those markets supporting Level 2 fair value measurements.

 

   

Other investments: Certain OTC derivatives, such as interest rate caps, are valued using models that are widely accepted in the financial services industry. These are categorized as Level 3 as a result of the significance of non-market observable inputs such as volatility. Other primary inputs include interest rate yield curves.

 

   

Other assets: Includes a structured settlement annuity reinsurance agreement accounted for as a derivative instrument that is valued internally. The model primarily uses stochastically determined cash flows, ultimate reinvestment spreads and applicable market data, such as interest rate and volatility assumptions. This item is categorized as Level 3 as a result of the significance of non-market observable inputs.

 

   

Contractholder funds: Derivatives embedded in certain life and annuity contracts are valued internally using models widely accepted in the financial services industry that determine a single best estimate of fair value for the embedded derivatives within a block of contractholder liabilities. The models primarily use stochastically determined cash flows based on the contractual elements of embedded derivatives, projected option cost and applicable market data, such as interest rate yield curves and equity index volatility assumptions. These are categorized as Level 3 as a result of the significance of non-market observable inputs.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

Mortgage loans written-down to fair value in connection with recognizing impairments are valued based on the fair value of the underlying collateral less costs to sell. Limited partnership interests written-down to fair value in connection with recognizing other-than-temporary impairments are generally valued using net asset values.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, Level 3 fair value measurements of fixed income securities total $279.6 million and $320.3 million, respectively, and include $258.7 million and $290.9 million, respectively, of fixed income securities valued based on non-binding broker quotes where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable. The Company does not develop the unobservable inputs used in measuring fair value; therefore, these are not included in the table above. However, an increase (decrease) in credit spreads for fixed income securities valued based on non-binding broker quotes would result in a lower (higher) fair value.

The effect to net income totals $8.8 million and is reported in the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as follows: $(6.6) million in realized capital gains and losses, $6.7 million in net investment income, $(297) thousand in interest credited to contractholder funds and $9.0 million in contract benefits.

Transfers between level categorizations may occur due to changes in the availability of market observable inputs, which generally are caused by changes in market conditions such as liquidity, trading volume or bid-ask spreads. Transfers between level categorizations may also occur due to changes in the valuation source. For example, in situations where a fair value quote is not provided by the Company’s independent third-party valuation service provider and as a result the price is stale or has been replaced with a broker quote whose inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable, the security is transferred into Level 3. Transfers in and out of level categorizations are reported as having occurred at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurred. Therefore, for all transfers into Level 3, all realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses in the quarter of transfer are reflected in the Level 3 rollforward table.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2015, 2014 or 2013.

 

44


Transfers into Level 3 during 2015, 2014 and 2013 included situations where a fair value quote was not provided by the Company’s independent third-party valuation service provider and as a result the price was stale or had been replaced with a broker quote where the inputs had not been corroborated to be market observable resulting in the security being classified as Level 3. Transfers out of Level 3 during 2015, 2014 and 2013 included situations where a broker quote was used in the prior period and a fair value quote became available from the Company’s independent third-party valuation service provider in the current period. A quote utilizing the new pricing source was not available as of the prior period, and any gains or losses related to the change in valuation source for individual securities were not significant.

The following table provides the change in unrealized gains and losses included in net income for Level 3 assets and liabilities held as of December 31.

Immediate annuities without life contingencies are valued based on discounted cash flow models that incorporate current market-based implied interest rates and reflect the Company’s own credit risk. The fair value measurement for contractholder funds on investment contracts is categorized as Level 3.

The liability for collateral is valued at carrying value due to its short-term nature. The fair value measurement for liability for collateral is categorized as Level 2.

 

7. Derivative Financial Instruments and Off-balance sheet Financial Instruments

The Company uses derivatives for risk reduction focused on managing the risks with certain assets and liabilities arising from the potential adverse impacts from changes in risk-free interest rates, changes in equity market valuations and foreign currency fluctuations.

Asset-liability management is a risk management strategy that is principally employed to balance the respective interest-rate sensitivities of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Depending upon the attributes of the assets acquired and liabilities issued, derivative instruments such as interest rate caps are utilized to change the interest rate characteristics of existing assets and liabilities to ensure the relationship is maintained within specified ranges and to reduce exposure to rising or falling interest rates. Options are used for hedging the equity exposure contained in the Company’s equity indexed life product contracts that offer equity returns to contractholders. Foreign currency forwards are primarily used by the Company to reduce the foreign currency risk associated with holding foreign currency denominated investments. The Company also has a reinsurance treaty that is recorded as a derivative instrument, under which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities to ALIC.

The Company also has derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts that are required to be separated from the host contracts and accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value of embedded derivatives reported in net income. The Company’s primary embedded derivatives are guaranteed minimum accumulation and withdrawal benefits in reinsured variable annuity contracts; equity options in life product contracts, which provide equity returns to contractholders; and conversion options in fixed income securities, which provide the Company with the right to convert the instrument into a predetermined number of shares of common stock.

The notional amounts specified in the contracts are used to calculate the exchange of contractual payments under the agreements and are generally not representative of the potential for gain or loss on these agreements.

 

46


Fair value, which is equal to the carrying value, is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the derivative contracts at the reporting date. The carrying value amounts for OTC derivatives are further adjusted for the effects, if any, of enforceable master netting agreements and are presented on a net basis, by counterparty agreement, in the Statements of Financial Position. For certain exchange traded derivatives, margin deposits are required as well as daily cash settlements of margin accounts. As of December 31, 2015, the Company pledged $60 thousand of cash in the form of margin deposits.

Non-hedge accounting is generally used for “portfolio” level hedging strategies where the terms of the individual hedged items do not meet the strict homogeneity requirements to permit the application of hedge accounting. For non-hedge derivatives, net income includes changes in fair value and accrued periodic settlements, when applicable. With the exception of non-hedge embedded derivatives, all of the Company’s derivatives are evaluated for their ongoing effectiveness as either accounting hedge or non-hedge derivative financial instruments on at least a quarterly basis.

The following table provides a summary of the volume and fair value positions of derivative instruments as well as their reporting location in the Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2015. None of these derivatives are designated as accounting hedging instruments.

The Company manages its exposure to credit risk by utilizing highly rated counterparties, establishing risk control limits, executing legally enforceable master netting agreements (“MNAs”) and obtaining collateral where appropriate. The Company uses MNAs for OTC derivative transactions that permit either party to net payments due for transactions and collateral is either pledged or obtained when certain predetermined exposure limits are exceeded. As of December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any collateral pledged to or from counterparties. The Company has not incurred any losses on derivative financial instruments due to counterparty nonperformance. Other derivatives, including option contracts, are traded on organized exchanges which require margin deposits and guarantee the execution of trades, thereby mitigating any potential credit risk.

Counterparty credit exposure represents the Company’s potential loss if all of the counterparties concurrently fail to perform under the contractual terms of the contracts and all collateral, if any, becomes worthless. This exposure is measured by the fair value of OTC derivative contracts with a positive fair value at the reporting date reduced by the effect, if any, of legally enforceable master netting agreements.

The following table summarizes the counterparty credit exposure as of December 31 by counterparty credit rating as it relates to the Company’s OTC derivatives.

Market risk is the risk that the Company will incur losses due to adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk exists for all of the derivative financial instruments the Company currently holds, as these instruments may become less valuable due to adverse changes in market conditions. To limit this risk, the Company’s senior management has established risk control limits. In addition, changes in fair value of the derivative financial instruments that the Company uses for risk management purposes are generally offset by the change in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged risk component of the related assets, liabilities or forecasted transactions.

Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments contain credit-risk-contingent termination events, cross-default provisions and credit support annex agreements. Credit-risk-contingent termination events allow the counterparties to terminate the derivative agreement or a specific trade on certain dates if the Company’s financial strength credit ratings by Moody’s or S&P fall below a certain level. Credit-risk-contingent cross-default provisions allow the counterparties to terminate the derivative agreement if the Company defaults by pre-determined threshold amounts on certain debt instruments. Credit-risk-contingent credit support annex agreements specify the amount of collateral the Company must post to counterparties based on the Company’s financial strength credit ratings by Moody’s or S&P, or in the event the Company is no longer rated by either Moody’s or S&P. The Company had no derivative instruments with termination, cross-default or collateral credit-risk-contingent features that were in a liability position as of December 31, 2015 or 2014.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments

The contractual amounts of off-balance-sheet financial instruments relating to commitments to invest in limited partnership interests totaled $193.1 million and $190.7 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The contractual amounts of off-balance-sheet financial instruments relating to commitments to extend mortgage loans totaled $9.0 million as of December 31, 2014. The contractual amounts represent the amount at risk if the contract is fully drawn upon, the counterparty defaults and the value of any underlying security becomes worthless. Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support off-balance sheet financial instruments with credit risk.

Commitments to invest in limited partnership interests represent agreements to acquire new or additional participation in certain limited partnership investments. The Company enters into these agreements in the normal course of business. Because the investments in limited partnerships are not actively traded, it is not practical to estimate the fair value of these commitments.

Commitments to extend mortgage loans are agreements to lend to a borrower provided there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. The Company enters into these agreements to commit to future loan fundings at a predetermined interest rate. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses.

In 2006, the Company disposed of its variable annuity business through a reinsurance agreement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America, a subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (collectively “Prudential”).

To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities would result in a premium deficiency had those gains actually been realized, a premium deficiency reserve is recorded for certain immediate annuities with life contingencies. A liability of $44.4 million and $257.3 million is included in the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits with respect to this deficiency as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The offset to this liability is recorded as a reduction of the unrealized net capital gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income.

The Company offered various guarantees to variable annuity contractholders. Liabilities for variable contract guarantees related to death benefits are included in the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits and the liabilities related to the income, withdrawal and accumulation benefits are included in contractholder funds. All liabilities for variable contract guarantees are reported on a gross basis on the balance sheet with a corresponding reinsurance recoverable asset.

Absent any contract provision wherein the Company guarantees either a minimum return or account value upon death, a specified contract anniversary date, partial withdrawal or annuitization, variable annuity and variable life insurance contractholders bear the investment risk that the separate accounts’ funds may not meet their stated investment objectives. The account balances of variable annuities contracts’ separate accounts with guarantees included $264.5 million and $322.1 million of equity, fixed income and balanced mutual funds and $36.8 million and $50.6 million of money market mutual funds as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The table below presents information regarding the Company’s variable annuity contracts with guarantees. The Company’s variable annuity contracts may offer more than one type of guarantee in each contract; therefore, the sum of amounts listed exceeds the total account balances of variable annuity contracts’ separate accounts with guarantees.

Defined as the estimated present value of the guaranteed minimum annuity payments in excess of the current account balance.

(3) 

Defined as the estimated current guaranteed minimum withdrawal balance (initial deposit) in excess of the current account balance as of the balance sheet date.

(4) 

Defined as the estimated present value of the guaranteed minimum accumulation balance in excess of the current account balance.

The liability for death and income benefit guarantees is equal to a benefit ratio multiplied by the cumulative contract charges earned, plus accrued interest less contract excess guarantee benefit payments. The benefit ratio is calculated as the estimated present value of all expected contract excess guarantee benefits divided by the present value of all expected contract charges. The establishment of reserves for these guarantees requires the projection of future fund values, mortality, persistency and customer benefit utilization rates. These assumptions are periodically reviewed and updated. For guarantees related to death benefits, benefits represent the projected excess guaranteed minimum death benefit payments. For guarantees related to income benefits, benefits represent the present value of the minimum guaranteed annuitization benefits in excess of the projected account balance at the time of annuitization.

Projected benefits and contract charges used in determining the liability for certain guarantees are developed using models and stochastic scenarios that are also used in the development of estimated expected gross profits. Underlying assumptions for the liability related to income benefits include assumed future annuitization elections based on factors such as the extent of benefit to the potential annuitant, eligibility conditions and the annuitant’s attained age. The liability for guarantees is re-evaluated periodically, and adjustments are made to the liability balance through a charge or credit to contract benefits.

Guarantees related to withdrawal and accumulation benefits are considered to be derivative financial instruments; therefore, the liability for these benefits is established based on its fair value.

9. Reinsurance

The Company reinsures certain of its risks to unaffiliated reinsurers and ALIC under yearly renewable term, coinsurance and modified coinsurance agreements. These agreements result in a passing of the agreed-upon percentage of risk to the reinsurer in exchange for negotiated reinsurance premium payments. Modified coinsurance is similar to coinsurance, except that the cash and investments that support the liability for contract benefits are not transferred to the assuming company and settlements are made on a net basis between the companies.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, for certain term life insurance policies, the Company ceded up to 90% of the mortality risk depending on the year of policy issuance. Further, the Company cedes the mortality risk

 

54


associated with coverage in excess of $2 million per life to ALIC. Prior to July 1, 2013, the Company ceded mortality risk in excess of $250 thousand per life to ALIC.

In addition, the Company has used reinsurance to effect the disposition of certain blocks of business. The Company had reinsurance recoverables of $185.4 million and $189.9 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, due from Prudential related to the disposal of its variable annuity business that was effected through reinsurance agreements. In 2015, premiums and contract charges of $7.1 million, contract benefits of $1.4 million, interest credited to contractholder funds of $4.5 million, and operating costs and expenses of $1.1 million were ceded to Prudential. In 2014, premiums and contract charges of $8.2 million, contract benefits of $1.4 million, interest credited to contractholder funds of $5.2 million, and operating costs and expenses of $1.3 million were ceded to Prudential. In 2013, premiums and contract charges of $9.0 million, contract benefits of $11.0 million, interest credited to contractholder funds of $5.5 million, and operating costs and expenses of $1.5 million were ceded to Prudential. In addition, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company had reinsurance recoverables of $114 thousand and $22 thousand, respectively, due from a subsidiary of Citigroup (Triton Insurance Company) in connection with the disposition of the direct response distribution business in 2003.

As of December 31, 2015, the gross life insurance in force was $40.61 billion of which $572.7 million and $9.01 billion was ceded to affiliated and unaffiliated reinsurers, respectively.

11. Guarantees and Contingent Liabilities

Guaranty funds

Under state insurance guaranty fund laws, insurers doing business in a state can be assessed, up to prescribed limits, for certain obligations of insolvent insurance companies to policyholders and claimants. Amounts assessed to each company are typically related to its proportion of business written in each state. The Company’s policy is to accrue assessments when the entity for which the insolvency relates has met its state of domicile’s statutory definition of insolvency and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. In most states, the definition is met with a declaration of financial insolvency by a court of competent jurisdiction. In certain states there must also be a final order of liquidation. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the liability balance included in other liabilities and accrued expenses was $750 thousand and $742 thousand, respectively. The related premium tax offsets included in other assets were $3.6 million as of both December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Guarantees

Related to the disposal through reinsurance of our variable annuity business to Prudential in 2006, the Company, ALIC and the Corporation have agreed to indemnify Prudential for certain pre-closing contingent liabilities (including extra-contractual liabilities of the Company and liabilities specifically excluded from the transaction) that the Company and ALIC have agreed to retain. In addition, the Company, ALIC and the Corporation will each indemnify Prudential for certain post-closing liabilities that may arise from the acts of the Company and ALIC and their agents, including certain liabilities arising from the Company’s and ALIC’s provision of transition services. The reinsurance agreements contain no limitations or indemnifications with regard to insurance risk transfer, and transferred all of the future risks and responsibilities for performance on the underlying variable annuity contracts to Prudential, including those related to benefit guarantees. Management does not believe this agreement will have a material effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.

 

56


In the normal course of business, the Company provides standard indemnifications to contractual counterparties in connection with numerous transactions, including acquisitions and divestitures. The types of indemnifications typically provided include indemnifications for breaches of representations and warranties, taxes and certain other liabilities, such as third party lawsuits. The indemnification clauses are often standard contractual terms and are entered into in the normal course of business based on an assessment that the risk of loss would be remote. The terms of the indemnifications vary in duration and nature. In many cases, the maximum obligation is not explicitly stated and the contingencies triggering the obligation to indemnify have not occurred and are not expected to occur. Consequently, the maximum amount of the obligation under such indemnifications is not determinable. Historically, the Company has not made any material payments pursuant to these obligations.

The aggregate liability balance related to all guarantees was not material as of December 31, 2015.

Regulation and Compliance

The Company is subject to extensive laws, regulations and regulatory actions. From time to time, regulatory authorities or legislative bodies seek to impose additional regulations regarding agent and broker compensation, regulate the nature of and amount of investments, impose fines and penalties for unintended errors or mistakes, and otherwise expand overall regulation of insurance products and the insurance industry. In addition, the Company is subject to laws and regulations administered and enforced by federal agencies and other organizations, including but not limited to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and the U.S. Department of Justice. The Company has established procedures and policies to facilitate compliance with laws and regulations, to foster prudent business operations, and to support financial reporting. The Company routinely reviews its practices to validate compliance with laws and regulations and with internal procedures and policies. As a result of these reviews, from time to time the Company may decide to modify some of its procedures and policies. Such modifications, and the reviews that led to them, may be accompanied by payments being made and costs being incurred. The ultimate changes and eventual effects of these actions on the Company’s business, if any, are uncertain.

 

12. Income Taxes

The Company joins with the Corporation and its other subsidiaries (the “Allstate Group”) in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return and is party to a federal income tax allocation agreement (the “Allstate Tax Sharing Agreement”). Under the Allstate Tax Sharing Agreement, the Company pays to or receives from the Corporation the amount, if any, by which the Allstate Group’s federal income tax liability is affected by virtue of inclusion of the Company in the consolidated federal income tax return. Effectively, this results in the Company’s annual income tax provision being computed, with adjustments, as if the Company filed a separate return.

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) is currently examining the Allstate Group’s 2013 and 2014 federal income tax returns. The IRS completed the audit of the Allstate Group’s 2011 and 2012 federal income tax returns and issued a final Revenue Agent’s Report on June 10, 2015. The Allstate Group’s tax years prior to 2011 have been examined by the IRS and the statute of limitations has expired on those years. Any adjustments that may result from IRS examinations of the Allstate Group’s tax returns are not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.

The Company had no liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2015, 2014 or 2013, and believes it is reasonably possible that the liability balance will not significantly increase within the next twelve months. No amounts have been accrued for interest or penalties.

13. Statutory Financial Information and Dividend Limitations

The Company prepares its statutory-basis financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of New York. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include a variety of publications of the NAIC, as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed.

The State of New York requires insurance companies domiciled in its state to prepare statutory-basis financial statements in conformity with the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, subject to any

 

58


deviations prescribed or permitted by the State of New York Insurance Superintendent. Statutory accounting practices differ from GAAP primarily since they require charging policy acquisition and certain sales inducement costs to expense as incurred, establishing life insurance reserves based on different actuarial assumptions, and valuing certain investments and establishing deferred taxes on a different basis.

Statutory net (loss) income was $(63.9) million, $31.3 million and $25.9 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus was $507.6 million and $562.1 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Dividend Limitations

The ability of the Company to pay dividends is dependent on business conditions, income, cash requirements and other relevant factors. The payment of shareholder dividends by the Company without the prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”) is limited to formula amounts based on capital and surplus and net gain from operations excluding realized capital gains and losses, determined in conformity with statutory accounting practices, as well as the timing and amount of dividends paid in the preceding twelve months. During 2016, the Company will not be able to pay dividends without prior NYDFS approval. Any dividend must be paid out of unassigned surplus excluding unrealized appreciation from investments, which totaled $341.6 million as of December 31, 2015, and cannot result in capital and surplus being less than the minimum amount required by law.

Under state insurance laws, insurance companies are required to maintain paid up capital of not less than the minimum capital requirement applicable to the types of insurance they are authorized to write. Insurance companies are also subject to risk-based capital (“RBC”) requirements adopted by state insurance regulators. A company’s “authorized control level RBC” is calculated using various factors applied to certain financial balances and activity. Companies that do not maintain adjusted statutory capital and surplus at a level in excess of the company action level RBC, which is two times authorized control level RBC, are required to take specified actions. Company action level RBC is significantly in excess of the minimum capital requirements. Total adjusted statutory capital and surplus and authorized control level RBC of the Company were $602.3 million and $71.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2015.

 

14. Benefit Plans

Pension and other postretirement plans

Defined benefit pension plans, sponsored by the Corporation, cover most full-time employees, certain part-time employees and employee-agents. Benefits under the pension plans are based upon the employee’s length of service and eligible annual compensation. The cost allocated to the Company for the pension plans was $804 thousand, $832 thousand and $5.3 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Corporation has reserved the right to modify or terminate its benefit plans at any time and for any reason.

Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan

Employees of AIC are eligible to become members of the Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan (“Allstate Plan”). The Corporation’s contributions are based on the Corporation’s matching obligation and certain performance measures. The cost allocated to the Company for the Allstate Plan was $811 thousand, $998 thousand and $773 thousand in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Item 11(h). Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

The following discussion highlights significant factors influencing the financial position and results of operations of Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York (referred to in this document as “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company” or “ALNY”). It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes found under Item 11(e) contained herein. We operate as a single segment entity based on the manner in which we use financial information to evaluate business performance and to determine the allocation of resources.

The most important factors we monitor to evaluate the financial condition and performance of our company include:

 

   

For operations: benefit and investment spread, asset-liability matching, amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”), expenses, net income, new business sales, invested assets, and premiums and contract charges.

 

63


   

For investments: exposure to market risk, asset allocation, credit quality/experience, total return, net investment income, cash flows, realized capital gains and losses, unrealized capital gains and losses, stability of long-term returns, and asset and liability duration.

 

   

For financial condition: liquidity, financial strength ratings, operating leverage, capital position, and return on equity.

OPERATIONS

Overview and strategy We currently sell traditional, interest-sensitive and variable life insurance and voluntary accident and health insurance products. We serve our customers through Allstate exclusive agencies and exclusive financial specialists, and workplace enrolling independent agents. We previously offered and continue to have in force fixed annuities such as deferred and immediate annuities.

We bring value to our ultimate parent, The Allstate Corporation (the “Corporation”) in three principal ways: through improving the economics of the Corporation through increased customer loyalty and deepened customer relationships based on cross selling our products to existing customers, bringing new customers to Allstate, and profitable growth. Our strategy is focused on expanding Allstate customer relationships, growing the number of products delivered to customers through Allstate exclusive agencies, and managing the run-off of our in-force annuity products while taking actions to improve returns.

The strategy for our life insurance business centers on the continuation of efforts to fully integrate the business into the Allstate brand customer value proposition and modernizing our operating model. The life insurance product portfolio and sales process are being redesigned with a focus on clear and distinct positioning to meet the varied needs of Allstate customers. Our product positioning will provide solutions to help meet customer needs during various life stages ranging from basic mortality protection to more complex mortality and financial planning solutions. Basic mortality protection solutions will be provided through less complex products, such as term and whole life insurance, sold through exclusive agents and licensed sales professionals to deepen customer relationships. More advanced mortality and financial planning solutions will be provided primarily through exclusive financial specialists with an emphasis on our more complex offerings, such as universal life insurance products. Sales producer education and technology improvements are being made to ensure agencies have the tools and information needed to help customers meet their needs and build personal relationships as trusted advisors. Additionally, tools will be made available to consumers to help them understand their needs and encourage interaction with their local agencies.

Allstate Benefits (Allstate’s workplace distribution business) is an industry leader in the voluntary benefits market, offering a broad range of accident and health insurance products, including critical illness, accident, cancer, disability and universal life. Allstate Benefits uses ALNY to write its business in New York. Allstate Benefits differentiates itself by offering a broad product portfolio, flexible enrollment solutions and technology (including significant presence on private exchanges), and its strong national accounts team, as well as the well-recognized Allstate brand. Market trends for voluntary benefits are favorable as the market has nearly doubled in size since 2006, driven by the ability of voluntary benefits to fill gaps from employers seeking to contain rising health care costs, by providing lower cost benefits, and shifting costs to employees.

Our in-force deferred and immediate annuity business has been adversely impacted by the historically low interest rate environment. Our immediate annuity business has also been impacted by medical advancements that have resulted in annuitants living longer than anticipated when many of these contracts were originated. We have initiated a mortality study for our structured settlement annuities with life contingencies, which is expected to be completed in 2016, to update our mortality assumptions concerning these trends. We focus on the distinct risk and return profiles of the specific products outstanding when developing investment and liability management strategies. The level of legacy deferred annuities in force has been significantly reduced and the investment portfolio and annuity crediting rates are proactively managed to improve the profitability of the business while

 

64


providing appropriate levels of liquidity. The investment portfolio supporting our immediate annuities is managed to ensure the assets match the characteristics of the liabilities and provide the long-term returns needed to support this business. We continue to increase investments in which we have ownership interests and a greater proportion of return is derived from idiosyncratic asset or operating performance to more appropriately match the long-term nature of our immediate annuities. To transition our annuity business to a more efficient variable cost structure, we continue to assess additional utilization of outsourcing arrangements for the administration of the business.

Net income was $73.4 million in 2015 compared to $126.0 million in 2014. The decrease was primarily due to lower net realized capital gains and lower net investment income, partially offset by lower interest credited to contractholder funds and lower contract benefits.

Net income was $126.0 million in 2014 compared to $40.3 million in 2013. The increase was primarily due to higher net realized capital gains, lower amortization of DAC, lower interest credited to contractholder funds and lower operating costs and expenses, partially offset by higher contract benefits.

Analysis of revenues Total revenues decreased 16.9% or $97.1 million in 2015 compared to 2014, due to lower net realized capital gains and lower net investment income, partially offset by higher premiums and contract charges. Total revenues increased 22.3% or $104.7 million in 2014 compared to 2013, due to higher net realized capital gains and higher premiums and contract charges, partially offset by lower net investment income.

Premiums represent revenues generated from traditional life insurance, immediate annuities with life contingencies, and accident and health insurance products that have significant mortality or morbidity risk.

Contract charges are revenues generated from interest-sensitive and variable life insurance and fixed annuities for which deposits are classified as contractholder funds or separate account liabilities. Contract charges are assessed against the contractholder account values for maintenance, administration, cost of insurance and surrender prior to contractually specified dates.

Contract charges related to the cost of insurance totaled $51.2 million, $49.5 million and $48.4 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Total premiums and contract charges increased 4.3% or $5.7 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to increased traditional life insurance renewal and new premiums and higher interest-sensitive life insurance contract charges.

Total premiums and contract charges increased 2.8% or $3.6 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to increased traditional life insurance and accident and health insurance premiums, partially offset by lower sales of immediate annuities with life contingencies due to discontinuing new sales January 1, 2014.

Contractholder funds represent interest-bearing liabilities arising from the sale of products such as interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities. The balance of contractholder funds is equal to the cumulative deposits received and interest credited to the contractholder less cumulative contract benefits, surrenders, withdrawals and contract charges for mortality or administrative expenses.

  discussion and analysis of revenues, which are presented net of reinsurance on the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. As a result, the net change in contractholder funds associated with products reinsured to third parties is reflected as a component of the other adjustments line.

Contractholder funds decreased 6.4% and 7.3% in 2015 and 2014, respectively, primarily due to the continued runoff of our deferred fixed annuity business that we stopped offering beginning January 1, 2014.

Contractholder deposits decreased 2.4% in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to lower additional deposits on fixed annuities, partially offset by higher deposits on interest-sensitive life insurance. Contractholder deposits decreased 3.3% in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to no longer offering fixed annuity products beginning January 1, 2014, as well as lower deposits on interest-sensitive life insurance.

Surrenders and partial withdrawals decreased primarily due to the continued runoff of our deferred annuity business by 24.5% to $211.2 million in 2015 from $279.8 million in 2014. Surrenders and partial withdrawals decreased 1.7% to $279.8 million in 2014 from $284.8 million in 2013. The surrender and partial withdrawal rate, based on the beginning of year contractholder funds, was 7.8% in 2015 compared to 9.5% in 2014 and 9.0% in 2013.

Analysis of costs and expenses Total costs and expenses decreased 4.4% or $16.5 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to lower interest credited to contractholder funds and lower contract benefits, partially offset by higher amortization of DAC. Total costs and expenses decreased 6.8% or $27.5 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to lower amortization of DAC, lower interest credited to contractholder funds and lower operating costs and expenses, partially offset by higher contract benefits.

Contract benefits decreased 4.5% or $9.7 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to improved mortality experience on annuities and a lower increase in reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance. Our 2015 annual review of assumptions resulted in a $133 thousand increase in reserves primarily for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance due to higher than anticipated retention on guaranteed interest-sensitive life business.

Contract benefits increased 4.7% or $9.6 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to higher claim experience on life insurance and an increase in reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance, partially offset by lower contract benefits on immediate annuities reflecting the reduction in premiums. Our 2014 annual review of assumptions resulted in a $2.9 million increase in reserves primarily for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance due to increased projected exposure to secondary guarantees.

We analyze our mortality and morbidity results using the difference between premiums and contract charges earned for the cost of insurance and contract benefits excluding the portion related to the implied interest on immediate annuities with life contingencies (“benefit spread”). This implied interest totaled $113.4 million, $113.4 million and $112.9 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The benefit spread by product group for the years ended December 31 is disclosed in the following table.

Benefit spread increased 178.8% or $15.5 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to improved mortality experience on annuities as well as higher premiums and cost of insurance contract charges and a lower increase in reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance.

 

67


Benefit spread decreased 35.0% or $4.7 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to higher claim experience on life insurance, an increase in reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance and worse mortality experience on annuities, partially offset by higher premiums and cost of insurance contract charges.

Interest credited to contractholder funds decreased 8.4% or $10.0 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to lower average contractholder funds and lower interest crediting rates. Interest credited to contractholder funds decreased 8.7% or $11.3 million in 2014 compared to 2013, due to lower average contractholder funds and lower crediting rates.

In order to analyze the impact of net investment income and interest credited to contractholders on net income, we monitor the difference between net investment income and the sum of interest credited to contractholder funds and the implied interest on immediate annuities with life contingencies, which is included as a component of contract benefits on the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (“investment spread”).

Investment spread decreased 1.8% or $1.6 million in 2015 compared to 2014, due to lower net investment income, partially offset by lower credited interest. Investment spread increased 10.4% or $8.6 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to higher limited partnership income and lower crediting rates, partially offset by the continued managed reduction in our spread-based business in force.

To further analyze investment spreads, the following table summarizes the weighted average investment yield on assets supporting product liabilities and capital, interest crediting rates and investment spreads. Investment spreads may vary significantly between periods due to the variability in investment income, particularly for immediate fixed annuities where the investment portfolio includes limited partnerships.

The impact of realized capital gains and losses on amortization of DAC is dependent upon the relationship between the assets that give rise to the gain or loss and the product liability supported by the assets. Fluctuations result from changes in the impact of realized capital gains and losses on actual and expected gross profits.

Amortization of DAC increased 25.7% or $3.4 million in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to higher amortization on interest-sensitive life insurance resulting from increased gross profits, partially offset by amortization deceleration for changes in assumptions in 2015 compared to amortization acceleration for changes in assumptions in 2014. Amortization of DAC decreased 55.6% or $16.6 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to lower amortization acceleration for changes in assumptions.

Our annual comprehensive review of assumptions underlying estimated future gross profits for our interest-sensitive life, fixed annuities and other investment contracts covers assumptions for persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses, interest crediting rates to policyholders, and the effect of any hedges in all product lines.

In 2015, the review resulted in a deceleration of DAC amortization (credit to income) of $641 thousand for interest-sensitive life insurance that was primarily due to a decrease in projected mortality.

In 2014, the review resulted in an acceleration of DAC amortization (charge to income) of $388 thousand. Amortization acceleration of $2.4 million related to fixed annuities and was primarily due to a decrease in projected gross profits. Amortization deceleration of $2.0 million related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was primarily due to a decrease in projected expenses, partially offset by increased projected mortality.

In 2013, the review resulted in an acceleration of DAC amortization of $14.1 million for interest-sensitive life insurance that was primarily due to an increase in projected mortality and expenses and lower projected investment margins.

Operating costs and expenses decreased 0.7% or $231 thousand in 2015 compared to 2014, primarily due to lower employee related and other operating costs.

Operating costs and expenses decreased 21.5% or $9.2 million in 2014 compared to 2013, primarily due to lower employee related expenses and a decrease in guaranty fund assessments.

Reinsurance ceded In the normal course of business, we seek to limit aggregate and single exposure to losses on large risks by purchasing reinsurance. In addition, we have used reinsurance to effect the disposition of certain blocks of business. We retain primary liability as a direct insurer for all risks ceded to reinsurers. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, 23.6% and 25.3%, respectively, of our face amount of life insurance in force was reinsured. Additionally, we ceded all of the risk associated with our variable annuity business.

We continuously monitor the creditworthiness of reinsurers in order to determine our risk of recoverability on an individual and aggregate basis, and a provision for uncollectible reinsurance is recorded if needed. No amounts have been deemed unrecoverable in the three-years ended December 31, 2015.

INVESTMENTS

Overview and strategy The return on our investment portfolio is an important component of our financial results. We identify a strategic asset allocation which considers both the nature of the liabilities and the risk and return characteristics of the various asset classes in which we invest. This allocation is informed by our long-term and market expectations, as well as other considerations such as risk appetite, portfolio diversification, duration, desired liquidity and capital. Within appropriate ranges relative to strategic allocations, tactical allocations are made in consideration of prevailing and potential future market conditions. We manage risks that involve uncertainty related to interest rates, credit spreads, equity returns and currency exchange rates.

Our portfolio is comprised of assets chosen to generate returns to support corresponding liabilities, within an asset-liability framework that targets an appropriate return on capital. For longer-term immediate annuity liabilities, we invest primarily in performance-based and other equity investments. For shorter-term annuity and life insurance liabilities, we invest primarily in interest-bearing investments, such as fixed income securities and commercial mortgage loans.

We utilize two high level strategies to manage risks and returns and to position our portfolio to take advantage of market opportunities while attempting to mitigate adverse effects. As strategies and market conditions evolve, the asset allocation may change or assets may move between strategies.

Market-Based Core strategy seeks to deliver predictive earnings aligned to business needs through investments primarily in public fixed income and equity. Private fixed income assets, such as commercial

 

71


mortgages and privately placed debt are also included in this category. As of December 31, 2015, 96% of the portfolio follows this strategy with 94% in fixed income securities and mortgage loans and 3% in equity securities.

Performance-Based Long-Term (“PBLT”) strategy seeks to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns over a longer horizon. The achieved return is a function of both general market conditions and the performance of the underlying assets or businesses. The portfolio, which primarily includes private equity, real estate, infrastructure and agriculture-related assets, is diversified across a number of characteristics, including managers or partners, vintage years, strategies, geographies (including international) and industry sectors or property types. These investments are generally illiquid in nature, often require specialized expertise, typically involve a third party manager, and may offer the potential to add value through transformation at the company or property level. As of December 31, 2015, 4% of the portfolio follows this strategy with 97% in limited partnership interests.

During 2015, strategic actions focused on optimizing portfolio yield, return and risk in the low interest rate environment. We continue increasing our performance-based investments, consistent with our ongoing strategy to have a greater proportion of ownership of assets and equity investments. Performance-based and other equity investments will continue to be allocated primarily to the longer-term immediate annuity liabilities to improve returns on those products. Shorter-term annuity and life insurance liabilities will continue to be invested primarily in interest-bearing investments, such as fixed income securities and commercial mortgage loans.

As of December 31, 2015, 94.6% of the fixed income securities portfolio was rated investment grade, which is defined as a security having a rating of Aaa, Aa, A or Baa from Moody’s, a rating of AAA, AA, A or BBB from S&P, Fitch, Dominion, Kroll or Realpoint, a rating of aaa, aa, a or bbb from A.M. Best, or a comparable internal rating if an externally provided rating is not available. Credit ratings below these designations are considered low credit quality or below investment grade, which includes high yield bonds. Fixed income securities are rated by third party credit rating agencies, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”), and/or are internally rated. Market prices for certain securities may have credit spreads which imply higher or lower credit quality than the current third party rating. Our initial investment decisions and ongoing monitoring procedures for fixed income securities are based on a thorough due diligence process which includes, but is not limited to, an assessment of the credit quality, sector, structure, and liquidity risks of each issue.

Our practice for acquiring and monitoring municipal bonds is predominantly based on the underlying credit quality of the primary obligor. We currently rely on the primary obligor to pay all contractual cash flows and are not relying on bond insurers for payments. As a result of downgrades in the insurers’ credit ratings, the ratings of the insured municipal bonds generally reflect the underlying ratings of the primary obligor. As of December 31, 2015, 100% of our insured municipal bond portfolio is rated investment grade.

Corporate bonds, including publicly traded and privately placed, totaled $3.63 billion as of December 31, 2015, with an unrealized net capital gain of $140.5 million. Privately placed securities primarily consist of corporate issued senior debt securities that are directly negotiated with the borrower or are in unregistered form.

Our $1.24 billion portfolio of privately placed securities is diversified by issuer, industry sector and country. The portfolio is made up of 193 issuers. Privately placed corporate obligations may contain structural security features such as financial covenants and call protections that provide investors greater protection against credit deterioration, reinvestment risk or fluctuations in interest rates than those typically found in publicly registered debt securities. Additionally, investments in these securities are made after due diligence of the issuer, typically including discussions with senior management and on-site visits to company facilities. Ongoing monitoring includes direct periodic dialog with senior management of the issuer and continuous monitoring of operating performance and financial position. Every issue not rated by an independent rating agency is internally rated with a formal rating affirmation at least once a year.

Our corporate bonds portfolio includes $237.8 million of below investment grade bonds, $94.0 million of which are privately placed. These securities are diversified by issuer and industry sector. The below investment grade corporate bonds portfolio is made up of 146 issuers. We employ fundamental analyses of issuers and sectors along with macro and asset class views to identify investment opportunities. This results in a portfolio with broad exposure to the high yield market, yet with an emphasis on idiosyncratic positions reflective of our views of market conditions and opportunities.

Foreign government securities totaled $216.8 million as of December 31, 2015, with 100% rated investment grade and an unrealized net capital gain of $25.4 million. Of these securities, 95.9% are backed by the U.S. government and the remaining 4.1% are in Canadian governmental and provincial securities.

RMBS, CMBS and ABS are structured securities that are primarily collateralized by residential and commercial real estate loans and other consumer or corporate borrowings. The cash flows from the underlying collateral paid to the securitization trust are generally applied in a pre-determined order and are designed so that each security issued by the trust, typically referred to as a “class”, qualifies for a specific original rating. For example, the “senior” portion or “top” of the capital structure, or rating class, which would originally qualify for a rating of Aaa typically has priority in receiving principal repayments on the underlying collateral and retains this priority until the class is paid in full. In a sequential structure, underlying collateral principal repayments are directed to the most senior rated Aaa class in the structure until paid in full, after which principal repayments are directed to the next most senior Aaa class in the structure until it is paid in full. Senior Aaa classes generally share any losses from the underlying collateral on a pro-rata basis after losses are absorbed by classes with lower original ratings. The payment priority and class subordination included in these securities serves as credit enhancement for holders of the senior or top portions of the structures. These securities continue to retain the payment priority features that existed at the origination of the securitization trust. Other forms of credit enhancement may include structural features embedded in the securitization trust, such as overcollateralization, excess spread and bond insurance. The underlying collateral may contain fixed interest rates, variable interest rates (such as adjustable rate mortgages) or both fixed and variable rate features.

RMBS totaled $57.7 million as of December 31, 2015, with 73.9% rated investment grade and an unrealized net capital gain of $2.7 million. The RMBS portfolio is subject to interest rate risk, but unlike other fixed income securities, is additionally subject to prepayment risk from the underlying residential mortgage loans. RMBS

consists of a U.S. Agency portfolio having collateral issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies and a non-agency portfolio consisting of securities collateralized by Prime, Alt-A and Subprime loans. The non-agency portfolio totaled $23.3 million as of December 31, 2015, with 35.2% rated investment grade and an unrealized net capital gain of $1.1 million.

CMBS totaled $87.2 million as of December 31, 2015, with 81.7% rated investment grade and an unrealized net capital gain of $506 thousand. The CMBS portfolio is subject to credit risk and has a sequential paydown structure. All of the CMBS investments are traditional conduit transactions collateralized by commercial mortgage loans, broadly diversified across property types and geographical area.

ABS, including CDO and Consumer and other ABS, totaled $92.6 million as of December 31, 2015, with 100% rated investment grade and an unrealized net capital gain of $186 thousand. Credit risk is managed by monitoring the performance of the underlying collateral. Many of the securities in the ABS portfolio have credit enhancement with features such as overcollateralization, subordinated structures, reserve funds, guarantees and/or insurance.

CDO totaled $9.7 million as of December 31, 2015, with an unrealized net capital loss of $350 thousand. Consumer and other ABS totaled $83.0 million as of December 31, 2015, with 100% rated investment grade.

Mortgage loans totaled $614.2 million as of December 31, 2015 and primarily comprise loans secured by first mortgages on developed commercial real estate. Key considerations used to manage our exposure include property type and geographic diversification. For further detail on our mortgage loan portfolio, see Note 5 of the financial statements.

Equity securities primarily include common stocks, exchange traded funds, non-redeemable preferred stocks and real estate investment trust equity investments. The equity securities portfolio was $205.8 million as of December 31, 2015, with an unrealized net capital loss of $3.3 million.

Limited partnership interests include interests in private equity funds and co-investments, real estate funds, and other funds. The following table presents carrying value and other information about our limited partnership interests as of December 31, 2015.

Unrealized net capital gains totaled $292.7 million as of December 31, 2015 compared to $532.1 million as of December 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to wider credit spreads, an increase in risk-free interest rates and the realization of unrealized net capital gains through sales.

We have a comprehensive portfolio monitoring process to identify and evaluate each fixed income and equity security that may be other-than-temporarily impaired. The process includes a quarterly review of all securities to identify instances where the fair value of a security compared to its amortized cost (for fixed income securities) or cost (for equity securities) is below established thresholds. The process also includes the monitoring of other impairment indicators such as ratings, ratings downgrades and payment defaults. The securities identified, in addition to other securities for which we may have a concern, are evaluated for potential other-than-temporary impairment using all reasonably available information relevant to the collectability or recovery of the security. Inherent in our evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment for these fixed income and equity securities are assumptions and estimates about the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer. Some of the factors that may be considered in evaluating whether a decline in fair value is other than temporary are: 1) the financial condition, near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer, including relevant industry specific market conditions and trends, geographic location and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices; 2) the specific reasons that a security is in an unrealized loss position, including overall market conditions which could affect liquidity; and 3) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost or cost. All investments in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2015 were included in our portfolio monitoring process for determining whether declines in value were other than temporary.

The unrealized net capital gain for the fixed income portfolio totaled $296.1 million, comprised of $360.7 million of gross unrealized gains and $64.7 million of gross unrealized losses as of December 31, 2015. This is compared to an unrealized net capital gain for the fixed income portfolio totaling $531.5 million, comprised of $551.4 million of gross unrealized gains and $19.9 million of gross unrealized losses as of December 31, 2014.

The consumer goods, utilities, energy and capital goods sectors comprise 26%, 19%, 10% and 9%, respectively, of the carrying value of our corporate fixed income securities portfolio as of December 31, 2015. The energy, basic industry and consumer goods sectors had the highest concentration of gross unrealized losses in our corporate fixed income securities portfolio as of December 31, 2015. In general, the gross unrealized losses are related to widening credit spreads or increasing risk-free interest rates since the time of initial purchase.

Global oil prices have declined significantly since September 30, 2014 and natural gas and other commodity values have also declined significantly in 2015. Among commodity exposed companies, those in the metal and mining sectors have experienced the largest decline in values of their debt. In the fixed income tables above and below, oil and natural gas exposure is reflected within the energy sector and metals and mining exposure is reflected within the basic industry sector. Within these sectors, we continue to monitor the impact to our investment portfolio for those companies that may be adversely affected, both directly and indirectly. If oil, natural gas and commodity prices remain at depressed levels for an extended period or decline further, certain issuers and investments may come under duress and may result in an increase in other-than-temporary impairments.

Corporate fixed income and equity securities with gross unrealized losses that have direct exposure to the energy sector, have an aggregate carrying value of $228.4 million and gross unrealized losses of $33.4 million as of December 31, 2015. 86% of the corporate fixed income securities with direct exposure to the energy sector were investment grade as of December 31, 2015. Gross unrealized losses on below investment grade corporate fixed income securities with direct exposure to the energy sector totaled $10.6 million of which $5.4 million relate to securities that had been in an unrealized loss position for a period of twelve or more consecutive months

 

78


as of December 31, 2015. Additionally, private equity limited partnership interests with exposure to energy totaled approximately $10 million as of December 31, 2015.

Corporate fixed income and equity securities with gross unrealized losses that have direct exposure to the metals and mining sectors, have an aggregate carrying value of $26.2 million and gross unrealized losses of $8.5 million as of December 31, 2015. 74% of the $27.6 million of corporate fixed income securities with direct exposure to the metals and mining sectors were investment grade as of December 31, 2015.

Unrealized losses on below investment grade corporate fixed income securities are primarily related to widening credit spreads or increasing risk-free interest rates since the time of initial purchase. Of the unrealized losses on below investment grade corporate fixed income securities, 42.2% relate to securities that had been in an unrealized loss position for a period of twelve or more consecutive months as of December 31, 2015. Unrealized losses were concentrated in the energy, basic industry and consumer goods sectors.

The unrealized net capital loss for the equity portfolio totaled $3.3 million, comprised of $12.0 million of gross unrealized gains and $15.3 million of gross unrealized losses as of December 31, 2015. This is compared to an unrealized net capital gain for the equity portfolio totaling $573 thousand, comprised of $2.0 million of gross unrealized gains and $1.5 million of gross unrealized losses as of December 31, 2014. Within the equity portfolio, the unrealized losses were primarily concentrated in the consumer goods, energy, banking and technology sectors. The unrealized losses were company and sector specific.

As of December 31, 2015, we have not made the decision to sell and it is not more likely than not we will be required to sell fixed income securities with unrealized losses before recovery of the amortized cost basis. As of December 31, 2015, we have the intent and ability to hold equity securities with unrealized losses for a period of time sufficient for them to recover.

Net investment income decreased 3.6% or $11.6 million to $311.2 million in 2015 from $322.8 million in 2014, primarily due to lower average investment balances and fixed income portfolio yields, partially offset by higher limited partnership income.

Net investment income decreased 0.7% or $2.3 million to $322.8 million in 2014 from $325.1 million in 2013 primarily due to lower average investment balances, partially offset by higher limited partnership income.

Impairment write-downs on fixed income securities in 2015 were primarily driven by corporate fixed income securities impacted by issuer specific circumstances, including exposure to oil and natural gas, and collateralized loan obligations that experienced deterioration in expected cash flows. Equity securities were written down primarily due to the length of time and extent to which fair value was below cost, considering our assessment of the financial condition and near-term and long-term prospects of the issuer, including relevant industry conditions and trends. Limited partnership write-downs primarily related to an investment that has been impacted by the decline in natural gas prices. Impairment write-downs in the above table include $4.8 million and $991 thousand of investments with exposure to the energy sector and metals and mining exposure in the basic industry, respectively.

The valuation allowance on mortgage loans as of December 31, 2014 decreased compared to December 31, 2013 primarily due to reversals related to impaired loan payoffs.

The impairment write-downs on fixed income securities in 2013 were driven by CMBS that experienced deterioration in expected cash flows.

Change in intent write-downs totaled $80 thousand, $499 thousand and $5.5 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The change in intent write-downs in 2015 were a result of plans to sell certain corporate bonds and reduce holdings of auction rate securities backed by student loans. The change in intent write-downs in 2014 were a result of plans to reduce holdings of auction rate securities backed by student loans. The change in intent write-downs in 2013 were a result of plans to sell certain CMBS securities and plans to reduce holdings of auction rate securities backed by student loans.

Sales and other generated $39.8 million, $64.9 million and $33.8 million of net realized capital gains in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Sales and other in 2015 included sales of fixed income securities in connection with ongoing portfolio management as well as losses from valuation changes in public securities held in certain limited partnerships. Sales and other in 2014 primarily related to equity securities in connection with ongoing portfolio management. Sales and other in 2013 primarily related to equity securities in connection with portfolio repositioning and ongoing portfolio management.

Valuation and settlements of derivative instruments generated net realized capital losses of $4.9 million in 2015, net realized capital gains of $52.7 million in 2014 and net realized capital losses of $9.9 million in 2013. Net realized capital gains and losses on derivatives primarily relate to the change in fair value of the structured settlement annuity reinsurance agreement.

Performance-based long-term investments primarily include private equity, real estate, infrastructure and agriculture-related assets and are materially reflected through our limited partnership investments.

Other limited partnership interests are located in the market-based core investing strategy and are not included in the performance-based long-term table above. Investment income was $994 thousand and zero and realized capital gains and losses were $(2.9) million and zero in 2015 and 2014, respectively, for these limited partnership interests.

PBLT investments produced investment income of $33.2 million in 2015 compared to $22.8 million in 2014. The increase primarily related to higher income on private equity investments due to net returns from the diversified portfolio along with strong distributions as acquirer access to financing and an active global merger and acquisition market facilitated the sales of underlying investments, which more than offset a decline in valuations of investments with exposure to the energy sector. Additionally, real estate investments had strong returns in 2015.

Realized capital losses on PBLT investments in 2015 were $3.2 million compared to $294 thousand in 2014. Included in 2015 were impairment write-downs primarily related to an energy related investment that has been impacted by a decline in natural gas prices.

Economic conditions and equity market performance are reflected in PBLT investment results and we continue to expect this income to vary significantly between periods.

MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk that we will incur losses due to adverse changes in interest rates, credit spreads, equity prices or currency exchange rates. Adverse changes to these rates and prices may occur due to changes in fiscal policy, the economic climate, the liquidity of a market or market segment, insolvency or financial distress of key market makers or participants or changes in market perceptions of credit worthiness and/or risk tolerance. Our primary market risk exposures are to changes in interest rates, credit spreads and equity prices.

The active management of market risk is integral to our results of operations. We may use the following approaches to manage exposure to market risk within defined tolerance ranges: 1) rebalancing existing asset or

 

83


liability portfolios, 2) changing the type of investments purchased in the future and 3) using derivative instruments to modify the market risk characteristics of existing assets and liabilities or assets expected to be purchased. For a more detailed discussion of our use of derivative financial instruments, see Note 7 of the financial statements.

Overview In formulating and implementing guidelines for investing funds, we seek to earn returns that enhance our ability to offer competitive rates and prices to customers while contributing to attractive and stable profits and long-term capital growth. Accordingly, our investment decisions and objectives are a function of the underlying risks and product profiles.

Investment policies define the overall framework for managing market and other investment risks, including accountability and controls over risk management activities. These investment activities follow policies that have been approved by our board of directors. These investment policies specify the investment limits and strategies that are appropriate given the liquidity, surplus, product profile and regulatory requirements. Executive oversight of investment activities is conducted primarily through our board of directors and investment committee. Asset-liability management (“ALM”) policies further define the overall framework for managing market and investment risks. ALM focuses on strategies to enhance yields, mitigate market risks and optimize capital to improve profitability and returns while factoring in future expected cash requirements to repay liabilities. ALM activities follow asset-liability policies that have been approved by our board of directors. These ALM policies specify limits, ranges and/or targets for investments that best meet our business objectives in light of our product liabilities.

We use quantitative and qualitative market-based approaches to measure, monitor and manage market risk. We evaluate our exposure to market risk through the use of multiple measures including but not limited to duration, value-at-risk, scenario analysis and sensitivity analysis. Duration measures the price sensitivity of assets and liabilities to changes in interest rates. For example, if interest rates increase 100 basis points, the fair value of an asset with a duration of 5 is expected to decrease in value by 5%. Value-at-risk is a statistical estimate of the probability that the change in fair value of a portfolio will exceed a certain amount over a given time horizon. Scenario analysis estimates the potential changes in the fair value of a portfolio that could occur under different hypothetical market conditions defined by changes to multiple market risk factors: interest rates, credit spreads, equity prices or currency exchange rates. Sensitivity analysis estimates the potential changes in the fair value of a portfolio that could occur under different hypothetical shocks to a market risk factor. In general, we establish investment portfolio asset allocation and market risk limits based upon a combination of duration, value-at-risk, scenario analysis and sensitivity analysis. The asset allocation limits place restrictions on the total funds that may be invested within an asset class. Comprehensive day-to-day management of market risk within defined tolerance ranges occurs as portfolio managers buy and sell within their respective markets based upon the acceptable boundaries established by investment policies. This day-to-day management is integrated with and informed by the activities of the ALM organization. This integration is intended to result in a prudent, methodical and effective adjudication of market risk and return, conditioned by the unique demands and dynamics of our product liabilities and supported by the continuous application of advanced risk technology and analytics.

Interest rate risk is the risk that we will incur a loss due to adverse changes in interest rates relative to the characteristics of our interest bearing assets and liabilities. This risk arises from many of our primary activities, as we invest substantial funds in interest-sensitive assets and issue interest-sensitive liabilities. Interest rate risk includes risks related to changes in U.S. Treasury yields and other key risk-free reference yields.

We manage the interest rate risk in our assets relative to the interest rate risk in our liabilities and our assessment of overall economic and capital risk. One of the measures used to quantify this exposure is duration. The difference in the duration of our assets relative to our liabilities is our duration gap. To calculate the duration gap between assets and liabilities, we project asset and liability cash flows and calculate their net present value using a risk-free market interest rate adjusted for credit quality, sector attributes, liquidity and other specific risks. Duration is calculated by revaluing these cash flows at alternative interest rates and determining the

 

84


percentage change in aggregate fair value. The cash flows used in this calculation include the expected maturity and repricing characteristics of our derivative financial instruments, all other financial instruments, and certain other items including annuity liabilities and other interest-sensitive liabilities. The projections include assumptions (based upon historical market experience and our experience) that reflect the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment, lapse, leverage and/or option features of instruments, where applicable. The preceding assumptions relate primarily to callable municipal and corporate bonds, fixed rate single and flexible premium deferred annuities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal housing bonds.

As of December 31, 2015, the difference between our asset and liability duration was a (3.24) gap compared to a (3.33) gap as of December 31, 2014. A negative duration gap indicates that the fair value of our liabilities is more sensitive to interest rate movements than the fair value of our assets, while a positive duration gap indicates that the fair value of our assets is more sensitive to interest rate movements than the fair value of our liabilities. We may have a positive or negative duration gap, as the duration of our assets and liabilities vary with our product mix and investing activity.

We seek to invest premiums, contract charges and deposits to generate future cash flows that will fund future claims, benefits and expenses, and that will earn stable returns across a wide variety of interest rate and economic scenarios. To achieve this objective and limit interest rate risk, we adhere to a philosophy of managing the duration of assets and related liabilities within predetermined tolerance levels. This philosophy is executed using duration targets for fixed income investments and may also include interest rate caps to reduce the interest rate risk resulting from mismatches between existing assets and liabilities.

Based upon the information and assumptions used in the duration calculation, and interest rates in effect as of December 31, 2015, we estimate that a 100 basis point immediate, parallel increase in interest rates (“rate shock”) would increase the net fair value of the assets and liabilities by $157.2 million, compared to an increase of $173.5 million as of December 31, 2014, reflecting year to year changes in duration and the amount of assets and liabilities. The selection of a 100 basis point immediate, parallel change in interest rates should not be construed as our prediction of future market events, but only as an illustration of the potential effect of such an event. The estimate excludes traditional and interest-sensitive life insurance and other products that are not considered financial instruments and the $793.3 million of assets supporting them and the associated liabilities. The $793.3 million of assets excluded from the calculation decreased from $809.9 million as of December 31, 2014. Based on assumptions described above, in the event of a 100 basis point immediate increase in interest rates, the assets supporting life insurance and other products that are not considered financial instruments would decrease in value by $41.4 million, compared to a decrease of $43.4 million as of December 31, 2014.

To the extent that conditions differ from the assumptions we used in these calculations, duration and rate shock measures could be significantly impacted. Additionally, our calculations assume that the current relationship between short-term and long-term interest rates (the term structure of interest rates) will remain constant over time. As a result, these calculations may not fully capture the effect of non-parallel changes in the term structure of interest rates and/or large changes in interest rates.

Credit spread risk is the risk that we will incur a loss due to adverse changes in credit spreads (“spreads”). Credit spread is the additional yield on fixed income securities and loans above the risk-free rate (typically referenced as the yield on U.S. Treasury securities) that market participants require to compensate them for assuming credit, liquidity and/or prepayment risks. The magnitude of the spread will depend on the likelihood that a particular issuer will default (“credit risk”). This risk arises from many of our primary activities, as we invest substantial funds in spread-sensitive fixed income assets.

We manage the spread risk in our assets. One of the measures used to quantify this exposure is spread duration. Spread duration measures the price sensitivity of the assets to changes in spreads. For example, if spreads increase 100 basis points, the fair value of an asset exhibiting a spread duration of 5 is expected to decrease in value by 5%.

 

85


Spread duration is calculated similarly to interest rate duration. As of December 31, 2015, the spread duration of assets was 5.48, compared to 5.79 as of December 31, 2014. Based upon the information and assumptions we use in this spread duration calculation, and spreads in effect as of December 31, 2015, we estimate that a 100 basis point immediate, parallel increase in spreads across all asset classes, industry sectors and credit ratings (“spread shock”) would decrease the net fair value of the assets by $287.2 million compared to $310.5 million as of December 31, 2014. The selection of a 100 basis point immediate parallel change in spreads should not be construed as our prediction of future market events, but only as an illustration of the potential effect of such an event.

Equity price risk is the risk that we will incur losses due to adverse changes in the general levels of the equity markets. As of December 31, 2015, we held $486.9 million in securities with equity risk (including primarily limited partnership interests, equity securities and non-redeemable preferred securities), compared to $419.1 million as of December 31, 2014.

As of December 31, 2015, our portfolio of securities with equity risk had a cash market portfolio beta of 1.14, compared to a beta of 1.12 as of December 31, 2014. Beta represents a widely used methodology to describe, quantitatively, an investment’s market risk characteristics relative to an index such as the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Price Index (“S&P 500”). Based on the beta analysis, we estimate that if the S&P 500 increases or decreases by 10%, the fair value of our equity investments will increase or decrease by 11.4%, respectively. Based upon the information and assumptions we used to calculate beta as of December 31, 2015, we estimate that an immediate increase or decrease in the S&P 500 of 10% would increase or decrease the net fair value of our equity investments by $55.3 million, compared to $46.7 million as of December 31, 2014. The selection of a 10% immediate increase or decrease in the S&P 500 should not be construed as our prediction of future market events, but only as an illustration of the potential effect of such an event.

The beta of our securities with equity risk was determined by calculating the change in the fair value of the portfolio resulting from stressing the equity market up and down 10%. The illustrations noted above may not reflect our actual experience if the future composition of the portfolio (hence its beta) and correlation relationships differ from the historical relationships.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had separate account assets, related to variable annuity and variable life contracts with account values totaling $317.3 million and $383.3 million, respectively. Equity risk exists for contract charges based on separate account balances and guarantees for death and/or income benefits provided by our variable products. In 2006, we disposed of all of the variable annuity business through a reinsurance agreement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America, a subsidiary of Prudential Financial Inc. and therefore mitigated this aspect of our risk. Equity risk for our variable life business relates to contract charges and policyholder benefits. Total variable life contract charges for 2015 and 2014 were $1.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Separate account liabilities related to variable life contracts were $11.0 million and $11.9 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that we will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This risk primarily arises from our foreign equity investments, including common stocks and limited partnership interests. We also have investments in certain fixed income securities that are denominated in foreign currencies; however, derivatives are used to hedge 100% of this foreign currency risk. As of December 31, 2015, we had $113.8 million in foreign currency denominated equity investments. As of December 31, 2014, we had $100.0 million in foreign currency denominated equity investments and $0.8 million in unhedged non-dollar fixed income securities.

Based upon the information and assumptions used as of December 31, 2015, we estimate that a 10% immediate unfavorable change in each of the foreign currency exchange rates to which we are exposed would decrease the value of our foreign currency denominated instruments by $11.4 million, compared with an estimated $10.1 million decrease as of December 31, 2014. The selection of a 10% immediate decrease in all currency exchange rates should not be construed as our prediction of future market events, but only as an illustration of the potential effect of such an event.

 

86


The modeling technique we use to report our currency exposure does not take into account correlation among foreign currency exchange rates. Even though we believe it is very unlikely that all of the foreign currency exchange rates that we are exposed to would simultaneously decrease by 10%, we nonetheless stress test our portfolio under this and other hypothetical extreme adverse market scenarios. Our actual experience may differ from these results because of assumptions we have used or because significant liquidity and market events could occur that we did not foresee.

Shareholder’s equity increased in 2015, primarily due to net income, partially offset by decreased unrealized net capital gains on investments. Shareholder’s equity increased in 2014, primarily due to net income and increased unrealized net capital gains on investments.

Financial ratings and strength The following table summarizes our insurance financial strength ratings as of December 31, 2014.

 

Rating agency

   Rating

A.M. Best Company, Inc.

   A+

Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services

   A+

Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

   A1

Our ratings are influenced by many factors including our operating and financial performance, asset quality, liquidity, asset/liability management, overall portfolio mix, financial leverage (i.e., debt), exposure to risks, the current level of operating leverage, ALIC’s ratings and Allstate Insurance Company’s (“AIC”) ratings.

In February 2015, A.M. Best affirmed our insurance financial strength rating of A+ and the outlook for the rating remained stable. In June 2015, Moody’s affirmed our insurance financial strength rating of A1 and the outlook for the rating remained stable. In July 2015, S&P affirmed our insurance financial strength rating of A+ and the outlook for the rating remained stable.

We have an intercompany loan agreement with the Corporation. The amount of intercompany loans available to the Company is at the discretion of the Corporation. The maximum amount of loans the Corporation will have outstanding to all its eligible subsidiaries at any given point in time is limited to $1.00 billion. The Corporation may use commercial paper borrowings, bank lines of credit and securities lending to fund intercompany borrowings.

We prepare our statutory-basis financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the New York State Department of Financial Services. Statutory surplus is a measure that is often used as a basis for determining dividend paying capacity, operating leverage and premium growth capacity, and it is also reviewed by rating agencies in determining their ratings. As of December 31, 2015, our statutory surplus was $507.6 million compared to $562.1 million as of December 31, 2014. In 2015, we initiated a mortality study for our structured settlement annuities with life contingencies, which is expected to be completed in 2016. The

 

87


study thus far indicates that annuitants may be living longer and receiving benefits for a longer period than originally estimated. The preliminary results of the study were incorporated in the statutory reserving process and led to a $56.3 million increase in statutory reserves as of December 31, 2015. This decreased the Company’s surplus by approximately $53.5 million, after-tax.

The NAIC has also developed a set of financial relationships or tests known as the Insurance Regulatory Information System to assist state insurance regulators in monitoring the financial condition of insurance companies and identifying companies that require special attention or actions by state insurance regulators. The NAIC analyzes financial data provided by insurance companies using prescribed ratios, each with defined “usual ranges”. Additional regulatory scrutiny may occur if a company’s ratios fall outside the usual ranges for four or more of the ratios. Our ratios are within these ranges.

Liquidity sources and uses Our potential sources of funds principally include the following.

 

   

Receipt of insurance premiums

   

Contractholder fund deposits

   

Reinsurance recoveries

   

Receipts of principal, interest and dividends on investments

   

Sales of investments

   

Funds from securities lending

   

Intercompany loans

   

Capital contributions from parent

   

Tax refunds/settlements

Our potential uses of funds principally include the following.

 

   

Payment of contract benefits, surrenders and withdrawals

   

Reinsurance cessions and payments

   

Operating costs and expenses

   

Purchase of investments

   

Repayment of securities lending

   

Payment or repayment of intercompany loans

   

Dividends to parent

   

Tax payments/settlements

Liquidity exposure A portion of our product portfolio, including fixed annuities and interest-sensitive life insurance, is subject to surrender and withdrawal at the discretion of contractholders. As of December 31, 2015, contractholder funds totaling $510.9 million were not subject to discretionary withdrawal, $964.0 million were subject to discretionary withdrawal with adjustments, and $1.71 billion were subject to discretionary withdrawal without adjustments. Of the contractholder funds subject to discretionary withdrawal with adjustments, $439.1 million had a contractual surrender charge of less than 5% of the account balance.

Certain remote events and circumstances could constrain our or the Corporation’s liquidity. Those events and circumstances include, for example, a catastrophe resulting in extraordinary losses, a downgrade in the Corporation’s senior long-term debt ratings to non-investment grade status, a downgrade in AIC’s financial strength ratings, or a downgrade in our financial strength ratings. The rating agencies also consider the interdependence of the Corporation’s individually rated entities; therefore, a rating change in one entity could potentially affect the ratings of other related entities.

Cash flows As reflected in our Statements of Cash Flows, lower cash provided by operating cash flows in 2015 compared to 2014 was primarily due to higher income tax payments, higher contract benefits paid and lower net investment income. Lower cash provided by operating cash flows in 2014 compared to 2013 was primarily due to higher income tax payments and lower net investment income.

 

88


Lower cash provided by investing activities in 2015 compared to 2014 was the result of lower cash used in financing activities due to lower contractholder fund disbursements. Higher cash provided by investing activities in 2014 compared to 2013 was primarily due to higher sales of investments and a lower net decrease in short-term investments, partially offset by lower collections and higher purchases of investments.

Lower cash used in financing activities in 2015 compared to 2014 was primarily due to lower contractholder withdrawals on fixed annuities and interest-sensitive life insurance, partially offset by lower deposits. Lower cash used in financing activities in 2014 compared to 2013 was primarily due to lower contractholder benefits and withdrawals on fixed annuities and interest-sensitive life insurance, partially offset by lower deposits.

Liabilities for collateral are typically fully secured with cash or short-term investments. We manage our short-term liquidity position to ensure the availability of a sufficient amount of liquid assets to extinguish short-term liabilities as they come due in the normal course of business, including utilizing potential sources of liquidity as disclosed previously.

(2) 

Contractholder funds represent interest-bearing liabilities arising from the sale of products such as interest-sensitive life and fixed annuities, including immediate annuities without life contingencies. The reserve for life-contingent contract benefits relates primarily to traditional life insurance, immediate annuities with life contingencies and voluntary accident and health insurance. These amounts reflect the present value of estimated cash payments to be made to contractholders and policyholders. Certain of these contracts, such as immediate annuities without life contingencies, involve payment obligations where the amount and timing of the payment is essentially fixed and determinable. These amounts relate to (i) policies or contracts where we are currently making payments and will continue to do so and (ii) contracts where the timing of a portion or all of the payments has been determined by the contract. Other contracts, such as interest-sensitive life, fixed deferred annuities, traditional life insurance and voluntary accident and health insurance, involve payment obligations where a portion or all of the amount and timing of future payments is uncertain. For these contracts, we are not currently making payments and will not make payments until (i) the occurrence of an insurable event such as death or illness or (ii) the occurrence of a payment triggering event such as the surrender or partial withdrawal on a policy or deposit contract, which is outside of our control. For immediate annuities with life contingencies, the amount of future payments is uncertain since payments will continue as long as the annuitant lives. We have estimated the timing of payments related to these contracts based on historical experience and our expectation of future payment patterns. Uncertainties relating to these liabilities include mortality, morbidity, expenses, customer lapse and withdrawal activity, estimated additional deposits for interest-sensitive life contracts, and renewal premium for life policies, which may significantly impact both the timing and amount of future payments. Such cash outflows reflect adjustments for the estimated timing of mortality, retirement, and other appropriate factors, but are undiscounted with respect to interest. As a result, the sum of the cash outflows shown for all years in the table exceeds the corresponding liabilities of $3.19 billion for contractholder funds and $2.10 billion for reserve for life-contingent contract benefits as included in the Statements of Financial Position as of December 31, 2015. The liability amount in the Statements of Financial Position reflects the discounting for interest as well as adjustments for the timing of other factors as described above.

Other liabilities primarily include accrued expenses, claim payments and other checks outstanding.

(4) 

Balance sheet liabilities not included in the table above include gross deferred tax liabilities of $216.5 million and unearned and advance premiums of $1.1 million. These items were excluded as they do not meet the definition of a contractual liability as we are not contractually obligated to pay these amounts to third parties. Rather, they represent an accounting mechanism that allows us to present our financial statements on an accrual basis. In addition, other liabilities of $1.0 million were not included in the table above because they did not represent a contractual obligation or the amount and timing of their eventual payment was sufficiently uncertain.

Contractual commitments represent commitments to invest in limited partnership interests. Limited partnership interests are typically funded over the commitment period which is shorter than the contractual expiration date of the partnership and as a result, the actual timing of the funding may vary.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to adopt accounting policies and make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. The most critical estimates, presented in the order they appear in the Statements of Financial Position, include those used in determining:

 

   

Fair value of financial assets

   

Impairment of fixed income and equity securities

   

Deferred policy acquisition costs amortization

   

Reserve for life-contingent contract benefits estimation

In making these determinations, management makes subjective and complex judgments that frequently require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. Many of these policies, estimates and related judgments are common in the insurance and financial services industries; others are specific to our business and operations. It is reasonably likely that changes in these estimates could occur from period to period and result in a material impact on our financial statements.

A brief summary of each of these critical accounting estimates follows. For a more detailed discussion of the effect of these estimates on our financial statements, and the judgments and assumptions related to these estimates, see the referenced sections of this document. For a complete summary of our significant accounting policies, see the notes to the financial statements.

Fair value of financial assets Fair value is defined 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. We are responsible for the determination of fair value of financial assets and the supporting assumptions and methodologies. We use independent third-party valuation service providers, broker quotes and internal pricing methods to determine fair values. We obtain or calculate only one single quote or price for each financial instrument.

 

90


Valuation service providers typically obtain data about market transactions and other key valuation model inputs from multiple sources and, through the use of proprietary models, produce valuation information in the form of a single fair value for individual fixed income and other securities for which a fair value has been requested under the terms of our agreements. The inputs used by the valuation service providers include, but are not limited to, market prices from recently completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities, interest rate yield curves, credit spreads, liquidity spreads, currency rates, and other information, as applicable. Credit and liquidity spreads are typically implied from completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities. Valuation service providers also use proprietary discounted cash flow models that are widely accepted in the financial services industry and similar to those used by other market participants to value the same financial instruments. The valuation models take into account, among other things, market observable information as of the measurement date, as described above, as well as the specific attributes of the security being valued including its term, interest rate, credit rating, industry sector, and where applicable, collateral quality and other issue or issuer specific information. Executing valuation models effectively requires seasoned professional judgment and experience. For certain equity securities, valuation service providers provide market quotations for completed transactions on the measurement date. In cases where market transactions or other market observable data is limited, the extent to which judgment is applied varies inversely with the availability of market observable information.

For certain of our financial assets measured at fair value, where our valuation service providers cannot provide fair value determinations, we obtain a single non-binding price quote from a broker familiar with the security who, similar to our valuation service providers, may consider transactions or activity in similar securities among other information. The brokers providing price quotes are generally from the brokerage divisions of leading financial institutions with market making, underwriting and distribution expertise regarding the security subject to valuation.

The fair value of certain financial assets, including privately placed corporate fixed income securities and certain free-standing derivatives, for which our valuation service providers or brokers do not provide fair value determinations, is determined using valuation methods and models widely accepted in the financial services industry. Our internal pricing methods are primarily based on models using discounted cash flow methodologies that develop a single best estimate of fair value. Our models generally incorporate inputs that we believe are representative of inputs other market participants would use to determine fair value of the same instruments, including yield curves, quoted market prices of comparable securities or instruments, published credit spreads, and other applicable market data as well as instrument-specific characteristics that include, but are not limited to, coupon rates, expected cash flows, sector of the issuer, and call provisions. Judgment is required in developing these fair values. As a result, the fair value of these financial assets may differ from the amount actually received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Moreover, the use of different valuation assumptions may have a material effect on the financial assets’ fair values.

For most of our financial assets measured at fair value, all significant inputs are based on or corroborated by market observable data and significant management judgment does not affect the periodic determination of fair value. The determination of fair value using discounted cash flow models involves management judgment when significant model inputs are not based on or corroborated by market observable data. However, where market observable data is available, it takes precedence, and as a result, no range of reasonably likely inputs exists from which the basis of a sensitivity analysis could be constructed.

We gain assurance that our financial assets are appropriately valued through the execution of various processes and controls designed to ensure the overall reasonableness and consistent application of valuation methodologies, including inputs and assumptions, and compliance with accounting standards. For fair values received from third parties or internally estimated, our processes and controls are designed to ensure that the valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistently applied, the inputs and assumptions are reasonable and consistent with the objective of determining fair value, and the fair values are accurately recorded. For example, on a continuing basis, we assess the reasonableness of individual fair values that have stale security prices or that

 

91


exceed certain thresholds as compared to previous fair values received from valuation service providers or brokers or derived from internal models. We perform procedures to understand and assess the methodologies, processes and controls of valuation service providers. In addition, we may validate the reasonableness of fair values by comparing information obtained from valuation service providers or brokers to other third party valuation sources for selected securities. We perform ongoing price validation procedures such as back-testing of actual sales, which corroborate the various inputs used in internal models to market observable data. When fair value determinations are expected to be more variable, we validate them through reviews by members of management who have relevant expertise and who are independent of those charged with executing investment transactions.

We also perform an analysis to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset when compared to normal market activity, and if so, whether transactions may not be orderly. Among the indicators we consider in determining whether a significant decrease in the volume and level of market activity for a specific asset has occurred include the level of new issuances in the primary market, trading volume in the secondary market, level of credit spreads over historical levels, bid-ask spread, and price consensuses among market participants and sources. If evidence indicates that prices are based on transactions that are not orderly, we place little, if any, weight on the transaction price and will estimate fair value using an internal model. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we did not adjust fair values provided by our valuation service providers or brokers or substitute them with an internal model for such securities.

Impairment of fixed income and equity securities For investments classified as available for sale, the difference between fair value and amortized cost for fixed income securities and cost for equity securities, net of certain other items and deferred income taxes (as disclosed in Note 5), is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income on the Statements of Financial Position and is not reflected in the operating results of any period until reclassified to net income upon the consummation of a transaction with an unrelated third party or when a write-down is recorded due to an other-than-temporary decline in fair value. We have a comprehensive portfolio monitoring process to identify and evaluate each fixed income and equity security whose carrying value may be other-than-temporarily impaired.

For each fixed income security in an unrealized loss position, we assess whether management with the appropriate authority has made the decision to sell or whether it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of the amortized cost basis for reasons such as liquidity, contractual or regulatory purposes. If a security meets either of these criteria, the security’s decline in fair value is considered other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.

If we have not made the decision to sell the fixed income security and it is not more likely than not we will be required to sell the fixed income security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, we evaluate whether we expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. We use our best

 

92


estimate of future cash flows expected to be collected from the fixed income security, discounted at the security’s original or current effective rate, as appropriate, to calculate a recovery value and determine whether a credit loss exists. The determination of cash flow estimates is inherently subjective and methodologies may vary depending on facts and circumstances specific to the security. All reasonably available information relevant to the collectability of the security, including past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable assumptions and forecasts, are considered when developing the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected. That information generally includes, but is not limited to, the remaining payment terms of the security, prepayment speeds, foreign exchange rates, the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer, expected defaults, expected recoveries, the value of underlying collateral, vintage, geographic concentration, available reserves or escrows, current subordination levels, third party guarantees and other credit enhancements. Other information, such as industry analyst reports and forecasts, sector credit ratings, financial condition of the bond insurer for insured fixed income securities, and other market data relevant to the realizability of contractual cash flows, may also be considered. The estimated fair value of collateral will be used to estimate recovery value if we determine that the security is dependent on the liquidation of collateral for ultimate settlement. If the estimated recovery value is less than the amortized cost of the security, a credit loss exists and an other-than-temporary impairment for the difference between the estimated recovery value and amortized cost is recorded in earnings. The portion of the unrealized loss related to factors other than credit remains classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. If we determine that the fixed income security does not have sufficient cash flow or other information to estimate a recovery value for the security, we may conclude that the entire decline in fair value is deemed to be credit related and the loss is recorded in earnings.

There are a number of assumptions and estimates inherent in evaluating impairments of equity securities and determining if they are other than temporary, including: 1) our ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in value; 2) the financial condition, near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer, including relevant industry specific market conditions and trends, geographic location and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices; 3) the specific reasons that a security is in an unrealized loss position, including overall market conditions which could affect liquidity; and 4) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost.

Once assumptions and estimates are made, any number of changes in facts and circumstances could cause us to subsequently determine that a fixed income or equity security is other-than-temporarily impaired, including: 1) general economic conditions that are worse than previously forecasted or that have a greater adverse effect on a particular issuer or industry sector than originally estimated; 2) changes in the facts and circumstances related to a particular issue or issuer’s ability to meet all of its contractual obligations; and 3) changes in facts and circumstances that result in management’s decision to sell or result in our assessment that it is more likely than not we will be required to sell before recovery of the amortized cost basis of a fixed income security or causes a change in our ability or intent to hold an equity security until it recovers in value. Changes in assumptions, facts and circumstances could result in additional charges to earnings in future periods to the extent that losses are realized. The charge to earnings, while potentially significant to net income, would not have a significant effect on shareholder’s equity, since our securities are designated as available for sale and carried at fair value and as a result, any related unrealized loss, net of deferred income taxes and related DAC, deferred sales inducement costs and reserves for life-contingent contract benefits, would already be reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholder’s equity.

The determination of the amount of other-than-temporary impairment is an inherently subjective process based on periodic evaluations of the factors described above. Such evaluations and assessments are revised as conditions change and new information becomes available. We update our evaluations regularly and reflect changes in other-than-temporary impairments in results of operations as such evaluations are revised. The use of different methodologies and assumptions in the determination of the amount of other-than-temporary impairments may have a material effect on the amounts presented within the financial statements.

For additional detail on investment impairments, see Note 5 of the financial statements.

Deferred policy acquisition costs amortization We incur significant costs in connection with acquiring insurance policies and investment contracts. In accordance with GAAP, costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal insurance policies and investment contracts are deferred and recorded as an asset on the Statements of Financial Position.

DAC related to traditional life insurance is amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the estimated revenues on such business. Significant assumptions relating to estimated premiums, investment returns, as well as mortality, persistency and expenses to administer the business are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not revised during the life of the policy. The assumptions for determining the timing and amount of DAC amortization are consistent with the assumptions used to calculate the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits. Any deviations from projected business in force resulting from actual policy terminations differing from expected levels and any estimated premium deficiencies may result in a change to the rate of amortization in the period such events occur. Generally, the amortization periods for these policies approximates the estimated lives of the policies. The recovery of DAC is dependent upon the future profitability of the business. We periodically review the adequacy of reserves and recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. We aggregate all traditional life insurance products and immediate annuities with life contingencies in the analysis. In the event actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance must be expensed to the extent not recoverable and a premium deficiency reserve may be required if the remaining DAC balance is insufficient to absorb the deficiency. In 2015, 2014 and 2013, our reviews concluded that no premium deficiency adjustments were necessary.

DAC related to interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities is amortized in proportion to the incidence of the total present value of gross profits, which includes both actual historical gross profits (“AGP”) and estimated future gross profits (“EGP”) expected to be earned over the estimated lives of the contracts. The amortization is net of interest on the prior period DAC balance using rates established at the inception of the contracts. Actual amortization periods generally range from 15-30 years; however, incorporating estimates of the rate of customer surrenders, partial withdrawals and deaths generally results in the majority of the DAC being amortized during the surrender charge period, which is typically 10-20 years for interest-sensitive life and 5-10 years for fixed annuities. The cumulative DAC amortization is reestimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income when there is a difference between the incidence of actual versus expected gross profits in a reporting period or when there is a change in total EGP.

AGP and EGP primarily consist of the following components: contract charges for the cost of insurance less mortality costs and other benefits (benefit margin); investment income and realized capital gains and losses less interest credited (investment margin); and surrender and other contract charges less maintenance expenses (expense margin). The principal assumptions for determining the amount of EGP are persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses on assets supporting contract liabilities, interest crediting rates to contractholders, and the effects of any hedges, and these assumptions are reasonably likely to have the greatest impact on the amount of DAC amortization. Changes in these assumptions can be offsetting and we are unable to reasonably predict their future movements or offsetting impacts over time.

Each reporting period, DAC amortization is recognized in proportion to AGP for that period adjusted for interest on the prior period DAC balance. This amortization process includes an assessment of AGP compared to EGP, the actual amount of business remaining in force and realized capital gains and losses on investments supporting the product liability. The impact of realized capital gains and losses on amortization of DAC depends upon which product liability is supported by the assets that give rise to the gain or loss. If the AGP is greater than EGP in the period, but the total EGP is unchanged, the amount of DAC amortization will generally increase, resulting in a current period decrease to earnings. The opposite result generally occurs when the AGP is less than the EGP in the period, but the total EGP is unchanged. However, when DAC amortization or a component of gross profits for a quarterly period is potentially negative (which would result in an increase of the DAC balance) as a result of negative AGP, the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the potential negative amortization

are considered to determine whether it is appropriate for recognition in the financial statements. Negative amortization is only recorded when the increased DAC balance is determined to be recoverable based on facts and circumstances. For products whose supporting investments are exposed to capital losses in excess of our expectations which may cause periodic AGP to become temporarily negative, EGP and AGP utilized in DAC amortization may be modified to exclude the excess capital losses.

Annually, we review and update the assumptions underlying the projections of EGP, including persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, comprising investment income and realized capital gains and losses, interest crediting rates and the effect of any hedges, using our experience and industry experience. At each reporting period, we assess whether any revisions to assumptions used to determine DAC amortization are required. These reviews and updates may result in amortization acceleration or deceleration, which are referred to as “DAC unlocking”. If the update of assumptions causes total EGP to increase, the rate of DAC amortization will generally decrease, resulting in a current period increase to earnings. A decrease to earnings generally occurs when the assumption update causes the total EGP to decrease.

The following table provides the effect on DAC amortization of changes in assumptions relating to the gross profit components of investment margin, benefit margin and expense margin during the years ended December 31.

In 2015, DAC amortization acceleration for changes in the investment margin component of EGP related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to lower projected investment returns. The deceleration related to benefit margin primarily related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to a decrease in projected mortality. The deceleration related to expense margin primarily related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to a decrease in projected expenses.

In 2014, DAC amortization acceleration for changes in the investment margin component of EGP related to fixed annuities and was due to lower projected investment returns. The acceleration related to benefit margin primarily related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to an increase in projected mortality. The deceleration related to expense margin primarily related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to a decrease in projected expenses.

In 2013, DAC amortization acceleration for changes in the investment margin component of EGP related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to lower projected investment returns. The acceleration related to benefit margin related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to an increase in projected mortality. The acceleration related to expense margin related to interest-sensitive life insurance and was due to an increase in projected expenses.

The following table displays the sensitivity of reasonably likely changes in assumptions included in the gross profit components of investment margin or benefit margin to amortization of the DAC balance as of December 31, 2015.

Any potential changes in assumptions discussed above are measured without consideration of correlation among assumptions. Therefore, it would be inappropriate to add them together in an attempt to estimate overall variability in amortization.

For additional detail related to DAC, see the Operations section of this document.

Reserve for life-contingent contract benefits estimation Due to the long term nature of traditional life insurance, life-contingent immediate annuities and voluntary accident and health insurance products, benefits are payable over many years; accordingly, the reserves are calculated as the present value of future expected benefits to be paid, reduced by the present value of future expected net premiums. Long-term actuarial assumptions of future investment yields, mortality, morbidity, policy terminations and expenses are used when establishing the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits payable under these insurance policies. These assumptions, which for traditional life insurance are applied using the net level premium method, include provisions for adverse deviation and generally vary by characteristics such as type of coverage, year of issue and policy duration. Future investment yield assumptions are determined based upon prevailing investment yields as well as estimated reinvestment yields. Mortality, morbidity and policy termination assumptions are based on our experience and industry experience. Expense assumptions include the estimated effects of inflation and expenses to be incurred beyond the premium-paying period. These assumptions are established at the time the policy is issued, are consistent with assumptions for determining DAC amortization for these policies, and are generally not changed during the policy coverage period. However, if actual experience emerges in a manner that is significantly adverse relative to the original assumptions, adjustments to DAC or reserves may be required resulting in a charge to earnings which could have a material effect on our operating results and financial condition.

We periodically review the adequacy of reserves and recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. In the event actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance must be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required. In 2015, 2014 and 2013, our reviews concluded that no premium deficiency adjustments were necessary. We also review these policies on an aggregate basis for circumstances where projected profits would be recognized in early years followed by projected losses in later years. In 2015, 2014 and 2013, our reviews concluded that there were projected profits in each year of the projection period.

We will continue to monitor the experience of our traditional life insurance and immediate annuities. In 2015, we initiated a mortality study for our structured settlement annuities with life contingencies, which is expected to be completed in 2016. The study thus far indicates that annuitants may be living longer and receiving benefits for a longer period than originally estimated. The preliminary results of the study were considered in the premium deficiency and profits followed by losses evaluations described above. We anticipate that mortality, investment and reinvestment yields, and policy terminations are the factors that would be most likely to require premium deficiency adjustments to these reserves or related DAC.

For further detail on the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits, see Note 8 of the financial statements.

REGULATION AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are subject to extensive regulation and we are involved in various legal and regulatory actions, all of which have an effect on specific aspects of our business. For a detailed discussion of the legal and regulatory actions in which we are involved, see Note 11 of the financial statements.

PENDING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

There are pending accounting standards that we have not implemented because the implementation date has not yet occurred.

 

96


The effect of implementing certain accounting standards on our financial results and financial condition is often based in part on market conditions at the time of implementation of the standard and other factors we are unable to determine prior to implementation. For this reason, we are sometimes unable to estimate the effect of certain pending accounting standards until the relevant authoritative body finalizes these standards or until we implement them.

Executive Compensation—Design

Incentive Design and Goal-Setting

Salary

 

   

The salaries of Messrs. Civgin and Winter are set by the Allstate Board of Directors (the “Allstate Board”) based on the recommendations of the Compensation and Succession Committee (the “Committee”). The salaries of Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten are set by Allstate management. In recommending executive salary levels, Allstate uses the 50th percentile of its peer companies as a guideline for Messrs. Civgin and Winter and the 50th percentile of insurance and general industry data as a guideline for Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten, which supports Allstate’s ability to compete effectively for and to retain executive talent. Annual merit increases for named executives are based on evaluations of their performance, using the enterprise-wide merit increase budget as a guideline.

 

102


Annual Cash Incentive Awards

 

   

For 2015, executives earned an annual cash incentive award based on Allstate’s achievement of performance measures and related assessments.

 

   

At the beginning of the year, the Committee sets performance measure goals based on Allstate’s operating plan after extensive review. Target performance is equal to operating plan. Threshold and maximum measures are informed by probability testing, historical results, and operational performance scenarios. To further test the appropriateness of the ranges, the Committee’s independent consultant provides advice based on peer performance, market expectations and industry trends. Allstate’s chief risk officer reviews the performance measures and ranges to ensure they are consistent with Allstate’s risk and return principles.

 

   

Actual performance on the performance measures determines the overall funding level of the corporate pool and the aggregate total award budget for eligible employees. In 2015, the pool was funded based on the collective results of three measures: Adjusted Operating Income, Total Premiums, and Net Investment Income. Funding for each measure is equal to 0% below threshold, 50% at threshold, 100% at target and 200% at maximum, and results between threshold, target and maximum are subject to interpolation.

 

   

In the event of a net loss, the corporate pool funding is reduced by 50% of actual performance for Allstate senior executives. For example, if performance measures ordinarily would fund the corporate pool at 60% and there was a net loss, then the corporate pool would be funded at 30% for Allstate senior executives. This mechanism ensures alignment of pay and performance in the event of a natural catastrophe or extreme financial market conditions.

 

   

Target annual incentive compensation percentages for Allstate senior executives are based on market data pay levels of peer companies and Allstate’s benchmark target for total direct compensation at the 50th percentile.

 

   

For Messrs. Civgin and Winter, the maximum award that could be earned was an amount equal to 15% and 20%, respectively, of the 162(m) pool (but in no event greater than the $10 million maximum set forth in the Annual Executive Incentive Plan). The Committee retained complete discretion to pay less than this maximum amount. Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten did not participate in the 162(m) pool.

 

   

Individual awards are based on individual performance in comparison to position-specific compensation targets and overall Allstate performance. Each Allstate executive’s performance is evaluated against goals established at the beginning of the year that are specifically developed to support Allstate’s annual operating priorities and long-term strategy.

 

   

Allstate paid the 2015 cash incentive awards in March 2016. The following graphic shows how the corporate pool was funded and distributed to individual participants:

For treatment of catastrophe losses and limited partnership income in the funding calculation, see the Performance Measures for 2015 section. The Committee has discretion to determine the amount of the awards paid from the corporate pool to Messrs. Civgin and Winter.

Performance Stock Awards (PSAs), Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and Stock Options

 

   

Allstate grants equity awards to executives based on scope of responsibility, consistent with its philosophy that a significant amount of compensation should be in the form of equity. Additionally, from time to time, equity awards are granted to attract new executives and to retain existing executives.

 

   

The mix of equity incentives for Messrs. Civgin and Winter has been 50% PSAs and 50% stock options. Allstate believes both PSAs and stock options are forms of performance-based incentive compensation because PSAs are earned based on achieving established performance goals and stock options require stock price appreciation to deliver value to an executive. The PSAs have a three-year performance cycle.

 

   

Other employees eligible for equity incentive awards, including Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten, had the choice of receiving the value of their February equity incentive awards in the following proportions between stock options and RSUs:

 

   

25% stock options and 75% RSUs;

 

   

50% stock options and 50% RSUs; or

 

   

75% stock options and 25% RSUs.

The election is reflected in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards at Fiscal Year-end 2015 table.

 

   

Starting in 2012, Messrs. Civgin and Winter were awarded a target number of PSAs.

 

   

For the 2012 and 2013 awards, the number of PSAs that became earned and vested at the end of the performance cycle was based on an annual Adjusted Operating Income ROE attained during each year of the performance cycle.

 

   

For awards beginning in 2014, the number of PSAs that vest depends on the three-year Average Adjusted Operating Income ROE. Adjusted Operating Income ROE is defined in the Performance Measures for 2015 section. Adjusted Operating Income for PSAs includes a minimum or maximum amount of after-tax catastrophe losses if actual catastrophe losses are less than or exceed those amounts, respectively, which serves to decrease volatility and stabilize the measure. The Committee selected Adjusted Operating Income ROE as the performance measure because it:

 

   

Measures performance in a way that is tracked and understood by investors.

 

   

Captures both income and balance sheet impacts, including capital management actions.

 

   

Provides a useful gauge of overall performance while limiting the effects of factors management cannot influence, such as extreme weather conditions.

 

   

Correlates to changes in long-term stockholder value.

 

   

For the 2012 and 2013 awards, performance is measured in three separate one-year periods, but all of these goals were established at the beginning of the three-year performance cycle. For awards beginning in 2014, performance is measured in a single three-year measurement period. The actual number of PSAs vested for the award’s measurement period varies from 0% to 200% of that period’s target PSAs based on Adjusted Operating Income ROE for the measurement period.

 

   

The Committee requires positive net income in order for executives to earn PSAs based on Adjusted Operating Income ROE above target. If Allstate has a net loss in a measurement period, the number of PSAs vested would not exceed target, regardless of the Adjusted Operating Income ROE. This hurdle is included to prevent misalignment between Allstate reported net income and the PSAs vested based on the Adjusted Operating Income ROE result. This situation could occur if, for example, catastrophe losses or capital losses that are not included in Adjusted Operating Income ROE caused Allstate to report a net loss for the period.

 

104


   

At the end of each measurement period, the Committee certifies the level of Adjusted Operating Income ROE achievement. The Committee does not have the discretion to adjust the performance achievement for any measurement period. PSAs will vest following the end of the three-year performance cycle if the performance conditions are met, subject to continued employment (other than in the event of death, disability, retirement, or a qualifying termination following a change in control).

Equity Ownership and Retention Requirements

 

Instituted in 1996, stock ownership guidelines require certain named executives to own Allstate common stock worth a multiple of base salary to link management and stockholders’ interests. The following charts show the salary multiple guidelines and the equity holdings that count towards the requirement. The current stock ownership guidelines apply to 90 of 189 Allstate senior executives and other officers as of December 31, 2015, and require these executives to hold 75% of net shares received as a result of equity compensation awards until their salary multiple guidelines are met.

Retention Requirements

Beginning with awards granted in 2014, Allstate added a requirement that, regardless of a senior executive’s stock ownership level, Allstate senior executives must retain at least 75% of net shares received as a result of equity compensation awards for one year. In the case of PSAs, Allstate senior executives must retain 75% of net after-tax PSA shares after the three-year vesting period for one year. In the case of stock options, Allstate senior executives must retain 75% of all shares remaining after covering the exercise price of the shares and taxes. This retention requirement applies to Allstate senior executives who receive both PSAs and stock options, or approximately 10% of Allstate officers in 2015.

Policies on Hedging and Pledging Securities

Allstate has a policy that prohibits all officers, directors, and employees from engaging in transactions in securities issued by Allstate or any of its subsidiaries that might be considered speculative or hedging, such as selling short or buying or selling options. Allstate instituted a policy in 2014 that prohibits Allstate senior executives and directors from pledging Allstate securities as collateral for a loan or holding such securities in a margin account, except when an exception is granted by Allstate’s chairman or the lead director of the Allstate Board.

Timing of Equity Awards and Grant Practices

Typically, the Committee approves grants of equity awards during a meeting in the first fiscal quarter. The timing allows the Committee to align awards with Allstate’s annual performance and business goals.

 

105


Throughout the year, the Committee may grant equity incentive awards to newly hired or promoted executives or to retain or recognize executives. Prior to August 2015, the grant date for these awards was fixed as the first business day of a month following the later of Committee action or the date of hire or promotion. In August, the grant date was changed to the third business day of a month following the later of Committee action or the date of hire or promotion.

Peer Benchmarking

 

Allstate monitors performance toward goals throughout the year and reviews executive compensation program design and executive pay levels annually. As part of that evaluation, Allstate considers available data regarding compensation paid to similarly-situated executives at companies against which it competes for executive talent. With respect to the 2015 compensation program, for Messrs. Civgin and Winter, the Committee considered compensation data for the peer companies listed below as well as compensation information from certain S&P 100 companies with fiscal year 2014 revenues of between $25 billion and $50 billion with which Allstate competes for executive talent. The Committee reviews the composition of the peer group annually with the assistance of its independent compensation consultant, Compensation Advisory Partners. In 2015, the Committee made no changes to the peer group. The following table reflects the peer group used for 2015 compensation benchmarking.

In January 2016, ACE Ltd. completed its acquisition of The Chubb Corporation and they have now merged into one company.

The Committee uses the 50th percentile of Allstate’s peer group as a guideline in setting the target total direct compensation of Allstate’s executives. Within the guideline, the Committee balances the various elements of compensation based on individual experience, job scope and responsibilities, performance, and market practices.

With respect to the named executives other than Mr. Civgin and Mr. Winter, Allstate management considered compensation surveys that provided information on companies of broadly similar size and business mix as Allstate, as well as companies with a broader market context. The compensation surveys considered include the Towers Watson Diversified Insurance Survey (includes insurance companies with assets greater than $125 billion), the Towers Watson General Industry Survey (includes companies with revenues greater than $20 billion), the Mercer Property & Casualty Insurance Compensation Survey (includes companies with Direct Written Premiums greater than $6 billion), the ClearSolutions Actuarial Salary Survey, and the Frederic W. Cook General Industry Survey. The weight given to information obtained from these sources varied depending on the position being evaluated.

(3) 

All officers are eligible for tax preparation services. Financial planning services were provided only to Allstate senior executives. Ms. Fortin did not use financial planning services. Messrs. Civgin and Winter received financial planning services.

(4) 

Mr. Winter is permitted to use Allstate’s corporate aircraft for personal use for up to 40 hours annually. In limited circumstances approved by Allstate’s CEO, Ms. Fortin and Mr. Civgin are permitted to use Allstate’s corporate aircraft for personal purposes. Personal usage is counted as taxable compensation. Ground transportation is available to Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Civgin and Winter. Mobile devices are available to Allstate senior executives, other officers, and certain managers and employees depending on their job responsibilities.

(5) 

Tickets to Allstate sponsored events or the Allstate Arena are offered occasionally as recognition for service.

Retirement Benefits

Each named executive participates in two different defined benefit pension plans. The Allstate Retirement Plan (ARP) is a tax qualified defined benefit pension plan available to all of Allstate’s regular full-time and regular part-time employees who meet certain age and service requirements. The ARP provides an assured retirement income based on an employee’s level of compensation and length of service at no cost to the employee. As the ARP is a tax qualified plan, federal tax law limits (1) the amount of an individual’s compensation that can be used to calculate plan benefits and (2) the total amount of benefits payable to a plan participant on an annual basis. For certain employees, these limits may result in a lower benefit under the ARP than would have been payable otherwise. Therefore, the Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (SRIP) is used to provide ARP-eligible employees whose compensation or benefit amount exceeds the federal limits with an additional defined benefit in an amount equal to what would have been payable under the ARP if the federal limits did not exist.

 

107


Effective January 1, 2014, Allstate modified its defined benefit pension plans so that all eligible employees earn future pension benefits under a new cash balance formula.

Change-in-Control and Post-Termination Benefits

Consistent with Allstate’s compensation objectives, Allstate offers these benefits to attract, motivate, and retain executives. A change in control of Allstate could have a disruptive impact on both Allstate and its executives. Change-in-control benefits and post-termination benefits are designed to mitigate that impact and to maintain alignment between the interests of Allstate’s executives and Allstate’s stockholders.

Messrs. Civgin and Winter are participants in Allstate’s change-in-control severance plan (the “CIC Plan”). Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten are not participants in the CIC Plan.

The change-in-control and post-termination arrangements which are described in the Potential Payments as a Result of Termination or Change-in-Control section are not provided exclusively to the named executives. A larger group of management employees is eligible to receive many of the post-termination benefits described in that section.

Clawback of Compensation

Awards made to Allstate’s executive officers after May 19, 2009, under short- and long-term incentive compensation plans, are subject to clawback in the event of certain financial restatements. Annual cash incentive and equity awards granted after May 19, 2009, are also subject to cancellation or recovery in certain circumstances if the recipient violates non-solicitation covenants. Equity awards granted after February 21, 2012, are subject to cancellation in certain circumstances if the recipient violates non-competition covenants.

Executive Compensation—Earned Awards

Salary

 

 

The base salaries for Messrs. Civgin, Imbarrato, Merten and Winter were adjusted in 2015. Allstate established a new base salary for Messrs. Civgin, Merten and Winter in January 2015 based on changes to their roles and responsibilities. Allstate established a new base salary for Mr. Imbarrato in February 2015 based on individual performance and in line with the enterprise-wide merit increase.

Annual Cash Incentive Awards

 

 

In 2015, Allstate’s total corporate pool was based on three measures: Adjusted Operating Income, Total Premiums, and Net Investment Income. The 2015 annual incentive plan targets for Adjusted Operating Income and Net Investment Income were lower than actual 2014 performance to account for economic trends and certain items that are not indicative of Allstate’s underlying insurance business. In addition, modest adjustments were made to the range between threshold and maximum in alignment with the operating plan and the probability of achieving the results.

The 2015 Total Premiums measure was adjusted by the Committee to reflect the same Canadian foreign currency exchange rate that was presented to the Committee when establishing the target at the beginning of the performance period.

The 2016 annual incentive plan targets are not included since those targets do not relate to 2015 pay, and as target performance is set at the 2016 operating plan, it is proprietary information. For a description of how the 2015 measures are determined, see the Performance Measures for 2015 section. The ranges of performance and 2015 actual results are shown in the following table.

The aggregate grant date fair value of PSAs and RSUs granted in 2015, 2014, and 2013 are computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (ASC 718). The fair value of PSAs and RSUs is based on the final closing price of Allstate’s common stock on the grant date, which in part reflects the payment of expected future dividends. (See note 18 to Allstate’s audited financial statements for 2015.) This amount reflects an accounting expense and does not correspond to actual value that will be realized by the named executives. The value of PSAs is based on the probable satisfaction of the performance conditions. The number of PSAs granted in 2015 to Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Civgin and Winter are provided in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards table. The value of the PSAs granted in 2015 to Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Civgin and Winter at grant date share price if maximum corporate performance were to be achieved is as follows: Ms. Fortin $38,695, Mr. Civgin $1,697 and Mr. Winter $5,515.

The aggregate grant date fair value of option awards is computed in accordance with FASB ASC 718. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the grant date using a binomial lattice model and the assumptions (see note 18 to Allstate’s audited financial statements for 2015) as set forth in the following table:

Amounts reflect the aggregate increase in actuarial value of the pension benefits as set forth in the Pension Benefits table, accrued during 2015, 2014, and 2013. These are benefits under the Allstate Retirement Plan (ARP) and the Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (SRIP). Non-qualified deferred compensation earnings are not reflected since Allstate’s Deferred Compensation Plan does not provide above-market earnings. The pension plan measurement date is December 31. (See note 17 to Allstate’s audited financial statements for 2015.) Beginning in 2014, all eligible employees earn pension benefits under a cash balance formula only.

 

  The following table reflects the respective change in the actuarial value of the benefits provided to the named executives in 2015:

The amount reported for personal use of aircraft is based on the incremental cost method, which is calculated based on Allstate’s average variable costs per flight hour. Variable costs include fuel, maintenance, on-board catering, landing/ramp fees, and other miscellaneous variable costs. The total annual variable costs are divided by the annual number of flight hours flown by the aircraft to derive an average variable cost per flight hour. This average variable cost per flight hour is then multiplied by the flight hours flown for personal use to derive the incremental cost. This method of calculating the incremental cost excludes fixed costs that do not change based on usage, such as pilots’ and other employees’ salaries, costs incurred in purchasing the aircraft, and non-trip related hangar expenses. Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Civgin and Winter were permitted to use Allstate’s corporate aircraft for personal purposes. Ms. Fortin and Mr. Civgin did not use the corporate aircraft for personal purposes in 2015.

 
  (2) 

Each of the named executives, except Ms. Fortin, participated in Allstate’s 401(k) plan during 2015. The amount shown is the amount allocated to their accounts as employer matching contributions.

 
  (3) 

“Other” consists of personal benefits and perquisites related to mobile devices, tax preparation services, financial planning, ground transportation, executive physical related items, supplemental long-term disability coverage, and for Ms. Fortin, $766 for reimbursement of taxes related to relocation expenses. (Tax assistance for certain relocation benefits is a standard component of Allstate’s relocation program available to all employees.) Ms. Fortin also received amounts for relocation that are not reflected in other compensation because they are part of the standard relocation package available to all employees. There was no incremental cost for the use of mobile devices. Allstate provides supplemental long-term disability coverage to all regular full- and part-time employees who participate in the long-term disability plan and whose annual earnings exceed the level which produces the maximum monthly benefit provided by the long-term disability plan. This coverage is self-insured (funded and paid for by Allstate when obligations are incurred). No obligations for the named executives were incurred in 2015, and therefore, no incremental cost is reflected in the table.

 
(6) 

When Ms. Fortin joined Allstate in 2015, she was paid a bonus, $98,400 of which was allocated to Allstate Life of New York under the Service and Expense Agreement. In addition, because she was guaranteed an annual cash incentive award at target, the portion of that award allocated to Allstate Life of New York under the Service and Expense Agreement, $13,951, is treated as bonus.

Awards under the annual incentive plans and the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan.

(2) 

The amounts in these columns consist of the threshold, target, and maximum annual cash incentive awards for the named executives. The threshold amount for each named executive is 50% of target, as the minimum amount payable (subject to individual performance) if threshold performance is achieved. For Messrs. Civgin and Winter, if the threshold is not achieved, the payment would be zero. The target amount is based upon achievement of the performance measures listed under the Annual Cash Incentive Awards caption in the Executive Compensation – Earned Awards section. The maximum amount payable to Messrs. Civgin and Winter is the lesser of a stockholder approved maximum of $10 million under the Annual Executive Incentive Plan or a percentage, which varies by executive, of the 162(m) award pool. The award pool is equal to 1.0% of Adjusted Operating Income with award opportunities capped at 20% of the pool for Mr. Winter and 15% of the pool for Mr. Civgin. Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten did not participate in the adjusted underlying operating income pool. Adjusted Operating Income is defined in the Performance Measures for 2015 section.

(3) 

The amounts shown in these columns reflect the threshold, target, and maximum PSAs for the named executives who were awarded PSAs. The threshold amount for each named executive is 0% payout. The target and maximum amounts are based upon achievement of the performance measures listed under the Performance Stock Awards caption in the Executive Compensation – Earned Awards section.

(4) 

The exercise price of each option is equal to the closing sale price on the New York Stock Exchange on the grant date or, if there was no such sale on the grant date, then on the last previous day on which there was a sale.

(5) 

The aggregate grant date fair value of the October 5, 2015, PSAs and RSUs was $59.90 and stock option awards was $12.17, computed in accordance with FASB ASC 718 based on the probable satisfaction of the performance conditions. The aggregate grant date fair value of the February 18, 2015 PSAs and RSUs was $70.71 and stock option awards was $15.62, computed in accordance with FASB ASC 718 based on the probable satisfaction of the performance conditions. The assumptions used in the valuation are discussed in footnotes 2 and 3 to the Summary Compensation Table.

 

114


Performance Stock Awards

PSAs represent Allstate’s promise to transfer shares of common stock in the future if certain performance measures are met. For the awards granted in 2015, performance is measured in a single three-year measurement period, and the actual number of PSAs that vest will vary from 0% to 200% of that period’s target PSAs based on Average Adjusted Operating Income ROE for the measurement period. For a definition of how that measure is calculated, see in the Performance Measures for 2015 section. Each PSA represents Allstate’s promise to transfer one fully vested share in the future for each PSA that vests. Vested PSAs will be converted into shares of Allstate common stock and dividend equivalents accrued on these shares will be paid in cash. No dividend equivalents will be paid prior to vesting. PSAs will vest following the end of the three-year performance cycle if the performance conditions are met, subject to continued employment (other than in the event of death, disability, retirement, or a qualifying termination following a change in control). PSAs were granted to Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Civgin and Winter.

Restricted Stock Units

Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten received awards of RSUs in 2015. Each RSU represents Allstate’s promise to transfer one fully vested share of stock in the future if and when the restrictions expire (when the unit “vests”). Because RSUs are based on and payable in stock, they reinforce the alignment of interests of Allstate’s executives and Allstate’s stockholders. In addition, RSUs provide a retention incentive because they have a real, current value that is forfeited in most circumstances if an executive terminates employment before the RSUs vest. Under the terms of the RSU awards, the executives have only the rights of general unsecured creditors of Allstate and no rights as stockholders until delivery of the underlying shares. The RSUs granted to Ms. Fortin in 2015 vest in four installments on the day before the first four anniversaries of the grant date, except in certain change-in-control situations or under other special circumstances approved by the Committee. The RSUs granted to Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten in 2015 vest on the day before the third anniversary of the grant date, except in certain change-in-control situations or under other special circumstances approved by the Committee. The RSUs granted to Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten in 2015 include the right to receive previously accrued dividend equivalents when the underlying RSU vests.

Stock Options

Stock options represent an opportunity to buy shares of Allstate’s stock at a fixed exercise price at a future date. Allstate uses them to align the interests of its executives with long-term stockholder value, as the stock price must appreciate from the grant date for the executives to profit.

Under Allstate’s stockholder-approved equity incentive plan, the exercise price cannot be less than the closing price of a share on the grant date. Stock option repricing is not permitted. In other words, without an event such as a stock split, if the Committee cancels an award and substitutes a new award, the exercise price of the new award cannot be less than the exercise price of the cancelled award.

All stock option awards have been made in the form of non-qualified stock options. The options granted to the named executives in 2014 and 2015 become exercisable over three years. One-third of the stock options will become exercisable on the anniversary of the grant date for each of the three years. The change to the vesting schedule beginning in 2014 was made to reflect current market practice. For the vesting schedule for other option grants, see footnote 1 to the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-end 2015 table. All of the options expire ten years from the grant date, except in certain change-in-control situations or under other special circumstances approved by the Committee.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-end 2015

 

 

The following table summarizes the outstanding equity awards of the named executives as of December 31, 2015, allocated in a manner consistent with the allocation of compensation expenses to Allstate Life of New York under the Service and Expense Agreement for 2015. The percentage of each equity award actually allocated to Allstate Life of New York has varied over the years, during which these awards were granted depending on the extent of services rendered by such executive to Allstate Life of New York and the arrangements in place at the time of such equity awards between Allstate Life of New York and the executive’s Allstate-affiliated employer. Because the aggregate amount of such equity awards attributable to services rendered to Allstate Life of New York by each named executive cannot be calculated without unreasonable effort, the allocated amount of each equity award provided for each named executive in the following table is the amount determined by multiplying each named executive’s equity award for services rendered to Allstate and all of its affiliates by the percentage used for allocating such named executive’s compensation to Allstate Life of New York for 2015 under the Service and Expense Agreement.

(1) 

The options granted in 2015 and 2014 vest over three years: one-third will become exercisable on the anniversary of the grant date for each of the three years. The options granted in 2012 and 2013 vest over four years: 50% on the second anniversary date and 25% on each of the third and fourth anniversary dates. The other options vest in four installments of 25% on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date. The exercise price of each option is equal to the closing price of Allstate’s common stock on the grant date. If there was no sale on the grant date, the closing price is calculated as of the last previous day on which there was a sale.

(2) 

The aggregate value and aggregate number of exercisable and unexercisable in-the-money options as of December 31, 2015, for each of the named executives are as follows:

Amount is based on the closing price of Allstate’s common stock of $62.09 on December 31, 2015.

(5) 

The PSAs vest in one installment on the day before the third anniversary of the grant date. The number of shares that ultimately vest may range from 0 to 200% of the target depending on actual performance during the three-year performance period. For a description of the PSA program and the performance measures used, see the Performance Stock Awards (PSAs), Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), and Stock Options caption in the Executive Compensation—Design section and the Performance Stock Awards caption in the Executive Compensation—Earned Awards section. The number of PSAs reflected in this column for the 2015 and 2014 awards are the number of shares that would vest if the target level of performance is achieved. Final payouts under the PSAs will not be known until the respective performance period is completed.

Retirement Benefits

 

 

The following table provides information about the pension plans in which the named executives participate. Each of the named executives participates in the Allstate Retirement Plan (ARP) and the Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (SRIP). Pension expense for each named executive under these plans has been accrued annually over the course of the executive’s career with Allstate. The aggregate amount of the annual accrual specifically allocated to Allstate Life of New York over that period of time has varied depending on the extent of services rendered by such executive to Allstate Life of New York and the arrangements in place at the time of accrual between Allstate Life of New York and the executive’s Allstate affiliated employer. Because the

 

117


aggregate amount of such annual accruals earned prior to 2015 attributable to services rendered to Allstate Life of New York by each named executive cannot be calculated without unreasonable effort, the present value of accumulated benefit provided for each named executive in the following table is the amount determined by multiplying the present value of such named executive’s accumulated pension benefit for services rendered to Allstate and all of its affiliates over the course of such named executive’s career with Allstate by the percentage used for allocating such named executive’s compensation to Allstate Life of New York for 2015 under the Service and Expense Agreement.

(1) 

These amounts are estimates and do not necessarily reflect the actual amounts that will be paid to the named executives, which will be known only at the time they become eligible for payment. The present value of the accumulated benefit was determined using the same measurement date (December 31, 2015) and material assumptions that Allstate uses for year-end financial reporting purposes, except that no assumptions were made for early termination, disability, or pre-retirement mortality. Other assumptions include the following:

 

   

Retirement at the normal retirement age as defined in the plans (age 65).

 

   

Discount rate of 4.83%.

Other assumptions for the final average pay formula include the following:

 

   

80% paid as a lump sum and 20% paid as an annuity; for the cash balance formula, 100% paid as a lump sum.

 

   

Lump-sum/annuity conversion segmented interest rates of 3.00% for the first five years, 5.25% for the next 15 years, and 6.00% for all years after 20.

 

   

Lump sum calculations were done using the RP-2014 mortality table projected with the MP-2015 projection table, with a blend of 50% males and 50% females. The RP-2014 mortality table and MP-2015 projection table were created by the Society of Actuaries. Allstate adopted these tables for accounting on December 31, 2015 to measure retirement program obligations in the United States; however, benefits are not determined using these factors in 2015 or 2016.

 

   

Annuity calculations were done using the RP-2014 white collar mortality table for annuitants projected with the MP-2015 projection table.

See note 17 to Allstate’s audited financial statements for 2015 for additional information.

The following table shows the lump sum present value of the non-qualified pension benefits for each named executive earned through December 31, 2015, if the named executives’ employment terminated on that date.

   The amount shown is based on the lump sum methodology used by the Allstate pension plans in 2016. Specifically, the interest rate for 2016 is based on 100% of the average corporate bond segmented yield curve from August of the prior year. As required under the Internal Revenue Code, the mortality table used for 2016 is the 2016 combined static Pension Protection Act funding mortality table with a blend of 50% males and 50% females.
(3) 

As of December 31, 2015, Ms. Fortin was not a participant in the Allstate Retirement Plan or the Supplemental Retirement Income Plan.

Allstate Retirement Plan (ARP)

Contributions to the ARP are made entirely by Allstate and are paid into a trust fund from which benefits are paid. Before January 1, 2014, ARP participants earned benefits under one of two formulas (final average pay or cash balance) based on their date of hire or their choice at the time Allstate introduced the cash balance formula. In order to better align Allstate’s pension benefits with market practices, provide future pension benefits more equitably to Allstate employees, and reduce costs, final average pay benefits were frozen as of December 31, 2013. As of January 1, 2014, all eligible participants earn benefits under a cash balance formula only.

Final Average Pay Formula—Frozen as of 12/31/13

Benefits under the final average pay formula were earned and are stated in the form of a straight life annuity payable at the normal retirement age of 65. Mr. Imbarrato has earned final average pay benefits equal to the sum of a Base Benefit and an Additional Benefit. The Base Benefit equals 1.55% of the participant’s average annual compensation, multiplied by credited service after 1988 through 2013. The Additional Benefit equals 0.65% of the amount of the participant’s average annual compensation that exceeds the participant’s covered compensation, multiplied by credited service after 1988 through 2013. Covered compensation is the average of the maximum annual salary taxable for Social Security over the 35-year period ending the year the participant would reach Social Security retirement age.

Cash Balance Formula—For all Participants Beginning 1/1/14

All named executives earned benefits under the cash balance formula in 2015. Under this formula, participants receive pay credits while employed at Allstate, based on a percentage of eligible annual compensation and years of service, plus interest credits. Pay credits are allocated to a hypothetical account in an amount equal to 3% to 5% of eligible annual compensation, depending on years of vesting service. Interest credits are allocated to the hypothetical account based on the interest crediting rate in effect for that plan year as published by the Internal Revenue Service. The interest crediting rate is set annually and is currently based on the average yield for 30-year U.S. Treasury securities for August of the prior year. Prior to 2014, Messrs. Civgin, Merten and Winter earned cash balance credits equal to 2.5% of eligible annual compensation after they completed one year of vesting service based on the prior cash balance formula.

 

119


Supplemental Retirement Income Plan (SRIP)

SRIP benefits are generally determined using a two-step process: (1) determine the amount that would be payable under the ARP formula(s) specified above if Internal Revenue Code limits did not apply, then (2) reduce the amount described in (1) by the amount actually payable under the applicable ARP formula(s). The normal retirement date under the SRIP is age 65. If eligible for early retirement under the ARP, the employee also is eligible for early retirement under the SRIP. SRIP benefits are not funded and are paid out of Allstate’s general assets.

Credited Service

No additional service credit beyond service with Allstate or its predecessors is granted under the ARP or the SRIP to any of the named executives.

Eligible Compensation

Under both the ARP and SRIP, eligible compensation consists of salary, annual cash incentive awards, and certain other forms of compensation, but does not include long-term cash incentive awards or income related to equity awards. Compensation used to determine benefits under the ARP is limited in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code. For final average pay benefits, average annual compensation is the average compensation of the five highest consecutive calendar years within the last ten consecutive calendar years through 2013.

Payment Options

Payment options under the ARP include a lump sum, straight life annuity, and various survivor annuity options. The lump sum under the final average pay benefit is calculated in accordance with the applicable interest rate and mortality assumptions as required under the Internal Revenue Code. The lump sum payment under the cash balance benefit is generally equal to a participant’s account balance. Payments from the SRIP are paid in the form of a lump sum using the same interest rate and mortality assumptions used under the ARP.

Timing of Payments

Eligible employees are vested in the normal ARP and SRIP retirement benefits on the earlier of the completion of three years of service or upon reaching age 65.

Final average pay benefits are payable at age 65. A participant with final average pay benefits may be entitled to a reduced early retirement benefit on or after age 55 if he or she terminates employment after completing 20 or more years of vesting service. A participant earning cash balance benefits who terminates employment with at least three years of vesting service is entitled to a lump sum benefit equal to his or her cash balance account balance.

The following SRIP payment dates assume a retirement or termination date of December 31, 2015:

 

   

Mr. Imbarrato’s SRIP benefit would be paid on January 1, 2028, or following death.

 

   

Mr. Civgin’s SRIP benefit would be paid on January 1, 2017, or following death.

 

   

Mr. Winter’s SRIP benefit would be paid on July 1, 2016, or following death.

 

   

Mr. Merten’s SRIP benefit would be paid on January 1, 2030, or following death.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation at Fiscal Year-end 2015

 

 

The following table summarizes the non-qualified deferred compensation contributions, earnings, and account balances of our named executives in 2015. All amounts relate to The Allstate Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan.

The aggregate amount of the annual accrual specifically allocated to Allstate Life of New York over each named executive’s career with Allstate has varied depending on the extent of services rendered by such executive to Allstate Life of New York and the arrangements in place at the time of accrual between Allstate Life of New York and the executive’s Allstate affiliated employer. Because the aggregate earnings and balance attributable to services rendered to Allstate Life of New York by each named executive cannot be calculated without unreasonable effort, the aggregate earnings and aggregate balance provided for each named executive in the following table is the amount determined by multiplying the value of such named executive’s non-qualified deferred compensation benefit for services rendered to Allstate and all of its affiliates over the course of such named executive’s career with Allstate by the percentage used for allocating such named executive’s compensation to Allstate Life of New York for 2015 under the Service and Expense Agreement.

(1) 

Aggregate earnings were not included in the named executive’s compensation in the last completed fiscal year in the Summary Compensation Table.

(2) 

There are no amounts reported in the Aggregate Balance at Last FYE column that previously were reported as compensation in the Summary Compensation Table.

In order to remain competitive with other employers, Allstate allows the named executives and other employees whose annual compensation exceeds the amount specified in the Internal Revenue Code ($265,000 in 2015), to defer under the Deferred Compensation Plan up to 80% of their salary and/or up to 100% of their annual cash incentive award that exceeds the Internal Revenue Code limit. Allstate does not match participant deferrals and does not guarantee a stated rate of return.

Deferrals under the Deferred Compensation Plan are credited with earnings or debited for losses based on the results of the notional investment option or options selected by the participants. The notional investment options available in 2015 under the Deferred Compensation Plan are: stable value, S&P 500, international equity, Russell 2000, mid-cap, and bond funds. Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, deferrals are not actually invested in these funds, but instead are credited with earnings or debited for losses based on the funds’ investment returns. Because the rate of return is based on actual investment measures in Allstate’s 401(k) plan, no above-market earnings are credited, recorded, or paid. Allstate’s Deferred Compensation Plan and 401(k) plan allow participants to change their investment elections daily.

The Deferred Compensation Plan is unfunded. This means that Allstate does not set aside funds for the plan in a trust or otherwise. Participants have only the rights of general unsecured creditors and may lose their balances in the event of the company’s bankruptcy. Account balances are 100% vested at all times.

 

121


An irrevocable distribution election is required before making any deferrals into the plan. Generally, a named executive may elect to begin receiving a distribution of his or her account balance immediately upon separation from service or in one of the first through fifth years after separation from service. The earliest distribution date for deferrals on or after January 1, 2005, and earnings and losses on these amounts, is six months following separation from service. The named executive may elect to receive payment in a lump sum or in annual cash installment payments over a period of two to ten years. In addition, a named executive may elect an in-service withdrawal of his or her entire balance earned and vested prior to January 1, 2005, and earnings and losses on these amounts, subject to forfeiture of 10% of such balance. Upon proof of an unforeseen emergency, a plan participant may be allowed to access certain funds in a deferred compensation account earlier than the dates specified above.

Potential Payments as a Result of Termination or Change in Control (CIC)

 

The following table lists the compensation and benefits that Allstate would generally provide to the named executives in various scenarios involving a termination of employment, other than compensation and benefits generally available to salaried employees. The table describes equity granting practices for the 2015 equity incentive awards. Relevant prior practices are described in the footnotes.

(1) 

Includes both voluntary and involuntary termination. Examples of involuntary termination independent of a change in control include performance-related terminations; terminations for employee dishonesty and violation of Allstate rules, regulations, or policies; and terminations resulting from lack of work, rearrangement of work, or reduction in force.

(2) 

In general, a change in control is one or more of the following events: (1) any person acquires 30% or more of the combined voting power of Allstate common stock within a 12-month period; (2) any person acquires more than 50% of the combined voting power of Allstate common stock; (3) certain changes are made to the composition of the Allstate Board; or (4) the consummation of a merger, reorganization, or similar transaction. These triggers were selected because any of these could cause a substantial change in management in a widely held company the size of Allstate. Messrs. Civgin and Winter are participants in Allstate’s CIC Plan. Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten are not parties to the CIC Plan. Effective upon a change in control, Messrs. Civgin and Winter become subject to covenants prohibiting solicitation of employees, customers, and suppliers until one year after termination of employment. If Messrs. Civgin and Winter incur legal fees or other expenses in an effort to enforce the CIC Plan, Allstate will reimburse them for these expenses unless it is established by a court that they had no reasonable basis for the claim or acted in bad faith.

(3) 

For those named executives subject to the CIC Plan, severance benefits would be payable if a named executive’s employment is terminated either by Allstate without cause or by the executive for good reason as defined in the plan during the two years following the change in control. Cause means the named executive has been convicted of a felony or other crime involving fraud or dishonesty, has willfully or intentionally breached the restrictive covenants in the CIC Plan, has habitually neglected his or her duties, or has engaged in willful or reckless material misconduct in the performance of his or her duties. Good reason includes a material diminution in a named executive’s base compensation, authority, duties, or responsibilities, or a material change in the geographic location where the named executive performs services.

(4) 

Named executives who receive an equity award or an annual cash incentive award under the Annual Executive Incentive Plan after May 19, 2009, are subject to a non-solicitation covenant while they are employed and for the one-year period following termination of employment. If a named executive violates the non-solicitation covenant, the Allstate Board or a committee of the Allstate Board, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may recover compensation provided to the named executive, including cancellation of outstanding awards or recovery of all or a portion of any gain realized upon vesting, settlement, or exercise of an award or recovery of all or a portion of any proceeds resulting from any disposition of shares received pursuant to an award if the vesting, settlement, or exercise of the award or the receipt of the sale proceeds occurred during the 12-month period prior to the violation. If Ms. Fortin’s or Messrs. Imbarrato’s or Merten’s employment were to be terminated as a result of a reduction in force, they would be eligible for a prorated annual incentive award subject to discretionary adjustments. Messrs. Civgin and Winter are not eligible for an annual incentive payment upon termination or retirement.

(5) 

Retirement for purposes of the annual cash incentive awards is defined as voluntary termination on or after the date the named executive attains age 55 with at least 10 years of service or age 60 with five years of service.

(6) 

Named executives who receive an equity award on or after May 21, 2013, that remains subject to a period of restriction or other performance or vesting condition, are subject to a non-compete provision while they are employed and for the one-year period following termination of employment. Named executives who received equity awards granted between February 21, 2012, and May 20, 2013, are subject to a non-compete provision while they are employed and for the two-year period following termination of employment. If a named executive violates the non-competition covenant, the Allstate Board or a committee of the Allstate Board may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, cancel any or all of the named executive’s outstanding awards that remain subject to a period of restriction or other performance or vesting condition as of the date on which the named executive first violated the non-competition provision.

For those named executives subject to the CIC Plan, if their employment is terminated due to death during the two years after the date of a change in control, the named executive’s estate or beneficiary will be entitled to survivor and other benefits, including retiree medical coverage, if eligible, that are not less favorable than the most favorable benefits available to the estates or surviving families of peer executives of Allstate. In the event of termination due to disability during the two years after the date of a change in control, Allstate will pay disability and other benefits, including supplemental long-term disability benefits and retiree medical coverage, if eligible, that are not less favorable than the most favorable benefits available to disabled peer executives.

Estimate of Potential Payments upon Termination(1)

The table below describes the value of compensation and benefits payable to each named executive upon termination, calculated in a manner consistent with the allocation of compensation expenses to Allstate Life of New York for 2015 under the Service and Expense Agreement, that would exceed the compensation or benefits generally available to salaried employees in each termination scenario. The total column in the following table does not reflect compensation or benefits previously accrued or earned by the named executives, such as deferred compensation and non-qualified pension benefits. Benefits and payments are calculated assuming a December 31, 2015, employment termination date.

(1) 

A “0” indicates either that there is no amount payable to the named executive, or the amount payable is the same for both the named executives and all salaried employees.

(2) 

The 2015 annual incentive plan payment is payable to all named executives as a result of death and disability. The amount listed for the annual incentive plan payment upon termination due to a change in control is shown at target as defined in the CIC Plan.

(3) 

As of December 31, 2015, none of the named executives are eligible to retire in accordance with Allstate’s policy and the terms of its equity incentive compensation and benefit plans. Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten are eligible for an annual incentive plan payment if they are terminated as a result of a reduction in workforce.

 

125


(4) 

Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten were not participants in the CIC Plan; however, pursuant to the terms of their equity awards, unvested stock options and RSUs would vest immediately upon a qualifying termination following a change in control.

(5) 

The Welfare Benefits and Outplacement Services amount includes the cost to provide certain welfare benefits to the named executive and family during the period the named executive is eligible for continuation coverage under applicable law. The amount shown reflects Allstate’s costs for these benefits or programs assuming an 18-month continuation period. The value of outplacement services is $28 for Mr. Civgin and $72 for Mr. Winter. Ms. Fortin and Messrs. Imbarrato and Merten are not eligible for welfare benefit continuation or outplacement services following a change in control.

(6) 

The named executives who participate in the long-term disability plan are eligible to participate in Allstate’s supplemental long-term disability plan for employees whose annual earnings exceed the level which produces the maximum monthly benefit provided by the long-term disability plan (basic plan). The monthly benefit is equal to 60% of the named executive’s qualified annual earnings divided by twelve and rounded to the nearest $100, reduced by $7,500, which is the maximum monthly benefit payment that can be received under the basic plan. The amount reflected assumes the named executive remains totally disabled until age 65 and represents the present value of the monthly benefit payable until age 65.

(7) 

The values in this change-in-control row represent amounts paid if both the change in control and qualifying termination occur on December 31, 2015. PSAs are paid out based on actual performance; for purposes of this table, the 2013-2015 cycle includes one year at 200%, one year at 180%, and one year at 84.3%. The 2014-2016 and 2015-2017 cycles are reflected at target. Beginning with awards granted in 2012, equity awards do not accelerate in the event of a change in control unless also accompanied by a qualifying termination of employment. A change in control also would accelerate the distribution of each named executive’s non-qualified deferred compensation and SRIP benefits. Please see the Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation at Fiscal Year-end 2015 table and footnote 2 to the Pension Benefits table in the Retirement Benefits section for details regarding the applicable amounts for each named executive.

Risk Management and Compensation

 

 

A review and assessment of potential compensation-related risks is conducted by Allstate’s chief risk officer. Allstate believes that its compensation policies and practices are appropriately structured and do not provide incentives for employees to take unnecessary and excessive risks.

The Allstate Board and its risk and return committee both play an important role in risk management oversight, including reviewing how Allstate management measures, evaluates, and manages Allstate’s exposure to risks posed by a wide variety of events and conditions. In addition, the compensation and succession committee employs an independent compensation consultant each year to review and assess Allstate’s executive pay levels, practices, and overall program design.

Performance Measures for 2015

 

 

The following are descriptions of the performance measures used for Allstate’s executive incentive compensation, and the performance measures relate to the financial performance of Allstate. The performance measures were developed uniquely for Allstate’s incentive compensation purposes, are non-GAAP measures and are not reported in Allstate’s financial statements. The Committee has approved the use of non-GAAP measures when appropriate to drive executive focus on particular strategic, operational, or financial factors, or to exclude factors over which Allstate’s executives have little influence or control. The Committee monitors compensation estimates during the year based on actual performance on these measures, and the internal audit department reviews the final results.

Annual Cash Incentive Award Performance Measures for 2015

 

 

Adjusted Operating Income: This measure is used to assess financial performance. In 2015, Adjusted Operating Income was $2,056 million compared to reported operating income of $2,113 million, a net reduction of $57 million. It was adjusted to remove the impacts of the underwriting loss of the Discontinued Lines and Coverages segment and restructuring and related charges and to include a minimum amount of catastrophe losses. A description of this measure is presented in the table above.

 

 

Net Investment Income: This measure is used to assess the financial operating performance provided from investments. It is equal to net investment income as reported in the consolidated statement of operations adjusted to include a minimum or maximum amount of income from limited partnership interests if the actual amounts are less than or exceed those amounts, respectively. Net Investment Income is also subject to adjustments to be consistent with the financial reporting used in establishing the measure and to exclude the effects of acquiring and selling businesses. In 2015, no adjustments were necessary and Net Investment Income of $3,156 million was equal to reported net investment income.

 

 

Total Premiums: This measure is used to assess growth within the Allstate Protection and Allstate Financial businesses. It is equal to the sum of Allstate Protection premiums written and Allstate Financial premiums and contract charges as described below.

Allstate Protection premiums written is equal to the Allstate Protection net premiums written as reported in management’s discussion and analysis in Allstate’s annual report on Form 10-K.

Allstate Financial premiums and contract charges are equal to life and annuity premiums and contract charges reported in the consolidated statement of operations.

Total Premiums is subject to adjustments to be consistent with the financial reporting used in establishing the measure and to exclude the effects of acquiring and selling businesses. No such adjustments were necessary in 2015.

Total Premiums was $33,176 million compared to the total reported amounts of $33,029 million as it was adjusted by the Committee to reflect the Canadian foreign exchange rate used in establishing the measure.

Performance Stock Award Performance Measures for the 2013-2015 Performance Cycle

 

 

Annual Adjusted Operating Income Return on Equity: This measure is used to assess financial performance. It is calculated as the ratio of annual Adjusted Operating Income for each year within the applicable PSA performance cycle divided by the average of adjusted common shareholders’ equity at the beginning and at the end of the respective year. A description of Adjusted Operating Income is presented in the table above.

Adjusted common shareholders’ equity excludes the net effects of unrealized net capital gains and losses. It is subject to adjustments to be consistent with the financial reporting used in establishing the measure. It is also adjusted to exclude the net effects of acquiring and selling businesses.

Annual Adjusted Operating Income Return on Equity was 11.9%, 13.2% and 13.4%, compared to Allstate’s reported operating income return on equity of 11.6%, 12.6% and 14.5% for the three years ended 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The primary adjustments related to removing the net effects of selling businesses in all three years and adjustments to reflect a minimum amount of catastrophe losses in 2015 and 2013.

 

128


Performance Stock Award Performance Measures for the 2014-2016 and 2015-2017 Performance Cycles

It is calculated as the ratio of the average Adjusted Operating Income for the three years in the period divided by the average of Adjusted Common Shareholders’ Equity at December 31 of the year-end immediately preceding the period and at the end of each year in the three-year period. A description of Adjusted Operating Income is presented in the table above.

 

 

Adjusted Common Shareholders’ Equity is equal to common shareholders’ equity excluding the net effects of unrealized net capital gains and losses.

Policies and Procedures for Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions

All intercompany agreements to which Allstate Life of New York is a party are approved by the Board as well as by the board of any other affiliate of The Allstate Corporation which is a party to the agreement. Intercompany agreements are also submitted for approval to the New York State Insurance Department, Allstate Life of New York’s domestic regulator pursuant to the applicable state’s insurance holding company systems act. This process is documented in an internal procedure that captures the review and approval process of all intercompany agreements. All approvals are maintained in Allstate Life of New York’s corporate records.

While there is no formal process for the review and approval of related person transactions between unaffiliated entities specific to Allstate Life of New York, all directors and executive officers of Allstate Life of New York are subject to the Allstate Code of Ethics (“Code”). The Code includes a written conflict of interest policy that was adopted by the Board of Directors of The Allstate Corporation, the ultimate parent company of Allstate Life of New York. Any potential relationship or activity that could impair independent thinking and judgment, including holding a financial interest in a business venture that is similar to Allstate, or in a business that has a relationship with Allstate, must be disclosed to Human Resources. Human Resources will work with representatives from the Law Department, including Enterprise Business Conduct, to determine whether an actual conflict of interest exists. Each director and executive officer must sign a Code of Ethics certification annually.

 

132


Independence Standards for Directors

Outside directors of Allstate Life of New York are subject to independence standards based on New York insurance law.

Applying these independence standards, Mss. Buckley and Slater and Messrs. Hurley and Raben are independent.

Although not subject to the independence standards of the New York Stock Exchange, for purposes of this S-1 registration statement, Allstate Life of New York has applied the independence standards required for listed companies of the New York Stock Exchange to the Board. Applying these standards, Allstate Life of New York has determined that Mss. Buckley and Slater and Messrs. Hurley and Raben are considered to be independent.

INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") recently adopted rule 12h-7 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Rule 12h-
7 exempts an insurance company from filing reports under the Exchange Act when
the insurance company issues certain types of insurance products that are
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and such products are regulated
under state law. Each of the variable annuities described in the prospectuses
referenced above fall within the exemption provided under rule 12h-7. Allstate
New York is hereby providing notice that it is electing to rely on the exemption
provided under rule 12h-7 effective as of the date of this prospectus supplement
or as soon as possible thereafter, and will be suspending filing reports under
the Exchange Act.

The SEC allows us to "incorporate by reference" information that we file with
the SEC into this prospectus supplement which means that incorporated documents
are considered part of this prospectus supplement. We can disclose important
information to you by referring you to those documents. This prospectus
supplement incorporates by reference our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2008, filed with the SEC on March 18, 2009, and our Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, filed with the SEC on
May 12, 2009.

Allstate New York will provide to each person, including any beneficial owner,
to whom a prospectus is delivered, a copy of any or all of the information that
has been incorporated by reference into the prospectus but not delivered with
the prospectus. Such information will be provided upon written or oral request
at no cost to the requester by writing to Allstate New York, P.O. Box 758565,
Topeka, KS 66675-8565 or by calling 1-800-457-8207. The public may read and copy
any materials that Allstate New York files with the SEC at the SEC's Public
Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may
obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the
SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports,
proxy, and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that
file electronically with the SEC (see http://www.sec.gov).

TRANSFERS                        Before the Payout Start Date, you may transfer

                                 the investment alternatives, with certain
                                 restrictions. Transfers to the Fixed Account
                                 must be at least $500.

                                 We do not currently impose a fee upon
                                 transfers. However, we reserve the right to
                                 charge $10 per transfer after the 12th transfer
                                 in each "CONTRACT YEAR," which we measure from
                                 the date we issue your contract or a Contract

WITHDRAWALS                      You may withdraw some or all of your Contract
                                 Value at anytime during the Accumulation Phase.
                                 Full or partial withdrawals are available under
                                 limited circumstances on or after the Payout
                                 Start Date.

                                 In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a
                                 time. ($1,000 for withdrawals made during the
                                 Payout Phase.) Withdrawals taken prior to
                                 annuitization (referred to in this prospectus
                                 as the Payout Phase) are generally considered
                                 to come from the earnings in the Contract
                                 first. If the Contract is tax-qualified,
                                 generally all withdrawals are treated as
                                 distributions of earnings. Withdrawals of
                                 earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if
                                 taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an
                                 additional 10% federal tax penalty. A
                                 withdrawal charge and MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

HOW THE CONTRACT WORKS

The Contract basically works in two ways.

First, the Contract can help you (we assume you are the CONTRACT OWNER) save for
retirement because you can invest in up to 19 investment alternatives and
generally pay no federal income taxes on any earnings until you withdraw them.
You do this during what we call the "ACCUMULATION PHASE" of the Contract. The
Accumulation Phase begins on the date we issue your Contract (we call that date
the "ISSUE DATE") and continues until the Payout Start Date, which is the date
we apply your money to provide income payments. During the Accumulation Phase,
you may allocate your purchase payments to any combination of the Variable
Sub-Accounts and/or the Fixed Account. If you invest in the Fixed Account, you
will earn a fixed rate of interest that we declare periodically. If you invest
in any of the Variable Sub-Accounts, your investment return will vary up or down
depending on the performance of the corresponding Funds.

Second, the Contract can help you plan for retirement because you can use it to
receive retirement income for life and/ or for a pre-set number of years, by
selecting one of the income payment options (we call these "INCOME PLANS")
described on page 20. You receive income payments during what we call the
"PAYOUT PHASE" of the Contract, which begins on the Payout Start Date and
continues until we make the last payment required by the Income Plan you select.
During the Payout Phase, if you select a fixed income payment option, we
guarantee the amount of your payments, which will remain fixed. If you select a
variable income payment option, based on one or more of the Variable
Sub-Accounts, the amount of your payments will vary up or down depending on the
performance of the corresponding Funds. The amount of money you accumulate under
your Contract during the Accumulation Phase and apply to an Income Plan will
determine the amount of your income payments during the Payout Phase.

The timeline below illustrates how you might use your Contract.

As the Contract owner, you exercise all of the rights and privileges provided by
the Contract. If you die, any surviving Contract owner, or if there is none, the
BENEFICIARY will exercise the rights and privileges provided by the Contract.
See "The Contract." In addition, if you die before the Payout Start Date, we
will pay a death benefit to any surviving Contract owner or, if none, to your
Beneficiary. See "Death Benefits."

Please call us at 1-800-692-4682 if you have any questions about how the
Contract works.

EXAMPLE 1

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the
Contracts with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These
costs include Contract owner transaction expenses, Contract fees, Variable
Account annual expenses, and Fund fees and expenses. The example below shows the
dollar amount of expenses that you would bear directly or indirectly if you:

..    invested $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated,

..    earned a 5% annual return on your investment, and

..    surrendered your Contract, or you began receiving income payments for a
     specified period of less than 120 months, at the end of each time period.

The first line of the example assumes that the maximum fees and expenses of any
of the Funds are charged. The second line of the example assumes that the
minimum fees and expenses of any of the Funds are charged. Your actual expenses
may be higher or lower than those shown below.

THE EXAMPLE DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY TAXES OR TAX PENALTIES YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO
PAY IF YOU SURRENDER YOUR CONTRACT.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To measure the value of your investment in the Variable Sub-Accounts during the
Accumulation Phase, we use a unit of measure we call the "ACCUMULATION UNIT."
Each Variable Sub-Account has a separate value for its Accumulation Units we
call "ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE." Accumulation Unit Value is analogous to, but not
the same as, the share price of a mutual fund.

Attached as Appendix A to this prospectus are tables showing the Accumulation
Unit Values of each Variable Sub-Account since the date we first offered the
Contracts. To obtain a fuller picture of each Variable Sub-Account's finances,
please refer to the Variable Account's financial statements contained in the
Statement of Additional Information. The financial statements of Allstate New
York also appear in the Statement of Additional Information.

THE CONTRACT

CONTRACT OWNER

The AIM Lifetime Plus(SM) Variable Annuity is a contract between you, the
Contract owner, and Allstate New York, a life insurance company. As the Contract
Owner, you may exercise all of the rights and privileges provided to you by the
Contract. That means it is up to you to select or change (to the extent
permitted):

..    the investment alternatives during the Accumulation and Payout Phases,

..    the amount and timing of your purchase payments and withdrawals,

..    the programs you want to use to invest or withdraw money,

..    the income payment plan you want to use to receive retirement income,

..    the Annuitant (either yourself or someone else) on whose life the income
     payments will be based,

..    the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries who will receive the benefits that the
     Contract provides when the last surviving Contract Owner or Annuitant dies,
     and

..    any other rights that the Contract provides.

If you die, any surviving Contract Owner or, if none, the Beneficiary may
exercise the rights and privileges provided to them by the Contract.

The Contract cannot be jointly owned by both a non-living person and a living
person. If the Contract Owner is a Grantor Trust, the Owner will be considered a
non-living person for purpose of this section and the Death Benefit section. The
maximum issue age of a Contract owner is age 90 as of the date we receive the
completed application to purchase the Contract.

Changing ownership of this Contract may cause adverse tax consequences and may
not be allowed under qualified plans. Please consult with a competent tax
advisor prior to making a request for a change of Contract Owner.

The Contract can also be purchased as an IRA or TSA (also known as a 403(b)).
The endorsements required to qualify these annuities under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, ("Code") may limit or modify your rights and
privileges under the Contract.

ANNUITANT

The Annuitant is the individual whose life determines the amount and duration of
income payments (other than under Income Plans with guaranteed payments for a
specified period). You initially designate an Annuitant in your application. If
the Contract Owner is a living person you may change the Annuitant prior to the
Payout Start Date. In our discretion, we may permit you to designate a joint
Annuitant, who is a second person on whose life income payments depend, on the
Payout Start Date. The maximum issue age of an Annuitant cannot exceed age 80 as
of the date we receive the completed application to purchase the Contract.

If the Annuitant dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the new Annuitant will be:

..    the youngest Contract Owner if living, otherwise

..    the youngest Beneficiary.

BENEFICIARY

The Beneficiary is the person who may elect to receive the Death Benefit or
become the new Contract Owner, subject to the Death of Owner provisions, if the
sole surviving Contract Owner dies before the Payout Start Date. (See section
titled "Death Benefits" for more details.) If the sole surviving Contract Owner
dies after the Payout Start Date, the Beneficiary will receive any guaranteed
Income Payments scheduled to continue.

You may name one or more Beneficiaries when you apply for a Contract. You may
also name one or more contingent Beneficiaries who will receive any Death
Benefit or guaranteed income benefit if there are no surviving primary
Beneficiaries upon the death of the sole surviving Contract Owner. You may
change or add Beneficiaries at any time by writing to us, unless you have
designated an irrevocable Beneficiary. We will provide a change of Beneficiary
form to be signed and filed with us. Any change will be effective at the time
you sign the written notice, whether or not the Annuitant is living when we
receive the notice. Until we receive your written

                                  9 PROSPECTUS




notice to change a Beneficiary, we are entitled to rely on the most recent
Beneficiary information in our files. We will not be liable as to any payment or
settlement made prior to receiving the written notice. Accordingly, if you wish
to change your Beneficiary, you should deliver your written notice to us
promptly.

If you did not name a Beneficiary or if the named Beneficiary is no longer
living and there are no other surviving Beneficiaries, the new Beneficiary will
be:

..    your spouse or, if he or she is no longer alive,

..    your surviving children equally, or if you have no surviving children,

..    your estate.

If more than one Beneficiary survives you, we will divide the Death Benefit
among your Beneficiaries according to your most recent written instructions. If
you have not given us written instructions, we will pay the Death Benefit in
equal amounts to the surviving Beneficiaries.

You may restrict income payments to Beneficiaries by providing us a written
request. Once we accept the written request, the change or restriction will take
effect as of the date you signed the request. Any change is subject to any
payment we make or other action we take before we accept the change.

MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT

Only an Allstate New York officer may approve a change in or waive any provision
of the Contract. Any change or waiver must be in writing. None of our agents has
the authority to change or waive the provisions of the Contract. We may not
change the terms of the Contract without your consent, except to conform the
Contract to applicable law or changes in the law. If a provision of the Contract
is inconsistent with state law, we will follow state law.

ASSIGNMENT

No Owner has a right to assign any interest in a Contract as collateral or
security for a loan. However, you may assign periodic income payments under the
Contract prior to the Payout Start Date. No Beneficiary may assign benefits
under the Contract until they are due. We will not be bound by any assignment
until the assignor signs it and files it with us. We are not responsible for the
validity of any assignment. Federal law prohibits or restricts the assignment of
benefits under many types of retirement plans and the terms of such plans may
themselves contain restrictions on assignments. An assignment may also result in
taxes or tax penalties. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY BEFORE TRYING TO
ASSIGN YOUR CONTRACT.

PURCHASES

MINIMUM PURCHASE PAYMENTS

Your initial Purchase Payment must be at least $5,000 ($2,000 for a Qualified
Contract). All subsequent Purchase Payments must be $500 or more. The maximum
Purchase Payment is $2,000,000 without prior approval. We reserve the right to
change the minimum Purchase Payment and to change the maximum Purchase Payment.
You may make Purchase Payments of at least $500 at any time prior to the Payout
Start Date. We also reserve the right to reject any application.

AUTOMATIC ADDITIONS PROGRAM

You may make additional purchase payments of at least $100 ($500 for allocation
to the Fixed Account) by automatically transferring amounts from your bank
account. Please consult with your sales representative for detailed information.

ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS

At the time you apply for a Contract, you must decide how to allocate your
Purchase Payments among the Investment Alternatives. The allocation you specify
on your application will be effective immediately. All allocations must be in
whole percents that total 100% or in whole dollars. You can change your
allocations by notifying us in writing. We reserve the right to limit the
availability of the Investment Alternatives.

We will allocate your additional purchase payments to the investment
alternatives according to your most recent instructions on file with us. Unless
you notify us in writing otherwise, we will allocate subsequent purchase
payments according to the allocation for the previous purchase payment. We will
effect any change in allocation instructions at the time we receive written
notice of the change in good order.

We will credit the initial purchase payment that accompanies your completed
application to your Contract within 2 business days after we receive the payment
at our service center. If your application is incomplete, we will ask you to
complete your application within 5 business days. If you do so, we will credit
your initial purchase payment to your Contract within that 5 business day
period. If you do not, we will return your purchase payment at the end of the 5
business day period unless you expressly allow us to hold it until you complete
the application. We will credit additional Purchase Payments to the Contract at
the close of the business day on which we receive the purchase payment at our
service center located in Vernon Hills, Illinois (mailing address: P.O. BOX
82656, LINCOLN, NE 68501-2656).

We are open for business each day Monday through Friday that the New York Stock
Exchange is open for business. We also refer to these days as "VALUATION DATES."
Our business day closes when the New York Stock Exchange closes, usually 4:00
p.m. Eastern Time

                                  10 PROSPECTUS




(3:00 p.m. Central Time). If we receive your purchase payment after 4:00 p.m.
Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date, we will credit your
purchase payment using the Accumulation Unit Values computed on the next
Valuation Date.

RIGHT TO CANCEL

You may cancel the Contract by returning it to us within the Cancellation
Period, which is the 10 day period after you receive the Contract (60 days if
you are exchanging another contract for the Contract described in this
prospectus.) You may return it by delivering it or mailing it to us. If you
exercise this "RIGHT TO CANCEL," the Contract terminates and we will pay you the
full amount of your purchase payments allocated to the Fixed Account Options.
Upon cancellation, as permitted by federal or state law, we will return your
purchase payments allocated to the Variable Account after an adjustment to
reflect investment gain or loss and any applicable charges that occurred from
the date of allocation through the date of cancellation. If your Contract is
qualified under Code Section 408(b), we will refund the greater of any purchase
payment or the Contract Value,

CONTRACT VALUE

Your Contract Value at any time during the Accumulation Phase is equal to the
sum of the value of your Accumulation Units in the Variable Sub-Accounts you
have selected, plus the sum of Sub-Account values in the Fixed Account.

ACCUMULATION UNITS

To determine the number of Accumulation Units of each Variable Sub-Account to
credit to your Contract, we divide (i) the amount of the purchase payment or
transfer you have allocated to a Variable Sub-Account by (ii) the Accumulation
Unit Value of that Variable Sub-Account next computed after we receive your
payment or transfer. For example, if we receive a $10,000 purchase payment
allocated to a Variable Sub-Account when the Accumulation Unit Value for the
Sub-Account is $10, we would credit 1,000 Accumulation Units of that Variable
Sub-Account to your Contract. Withdrawals and transfers from a Variable
Sub-Account would, of course, reduce the number of Accumulation Units of that
Sub-Account allocated to your Contract.

ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE

As a general matter, the Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account
will rise or fall to reflect:

..    changes in the share price of the Fund in which the Variable Sub-Account
     invests, and

..    the deduction of amounts reflecting the mortality and expense risk charge,
     administrative expense charge, and any provision for taxes that have
     accrued since we last calculated the Accumulation Unit Value.

We determine contract maintenance charges, withdrawal charges, and transfer fees
(currently waived) separately for each Contract. They do not affect Accumulation
Unit Value. Instead, we obtain payment of those charges and fees by redeeming
Accumulation Units. For details on how we calculate Accumulation Unit Value,
please refer to the Statement of Additional Information.

We determine a separate Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account on
each Valuation Date.

YOU SHOULD REFER TO THE PROSPECTUS FOR THE FUNDS THAT ACCOMPANIES THIS
PROSPECTUS FOR A DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE ASSETS OF EACH FUND ARE VALUED, SINCE
THAT DETERMINATION DIRECTLY BEARS ON THE ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE OF THE
CORRESPONDING VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNT AND, THEREFORE, YOUR CONTRACT VALUE.

ARE NOT DEPOSITS, OR OBLIGATIONS OF, OR GUARANTEED OR ENDORSED BY ANY BANK AND
ARE NOT INSURED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, THE FEDERAL
RESERVE BOARD OR ANY OTHER AGENCY.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE FIXED ACCOUNT

You may allocate all or a portion of your purchase payments to the Fixed
Account. The Fixed Account supports our insurance and annuity obligations. The
Fixed Account consists of our general assets other than those in segregated
asset accounts. We have sole discretion to invest the assets of the Fixed
Account, subject to applicable law. Any money you allocate to the Fixed Account
does not entitle you to share in the investment experience of the Fixed Account.

GUARANTEE PERIODS

Each payment or transfer allocated to a Guarantee Period earns interest at a
specified rate that we guarantee for a period of years. Guarantee Periods may
range from 1 to 10 years. In the future, we may offer Guarantee Periods of
different lengths or stop offering some Guarantee Periods.

You select the Guarantee Period for each payment or transfer. If you do not
select a Guarantee Period, we will assign the same period(s) you selected for
your most recent purchase payment(s), if available.

Each purchase payment or transfer allocated to a Guarantee Period must be at
least $500. We reserve the right to limit the number of additional purchase
payments that you may allocate to the Fixed Account. Please consult with your
sales representative for more information.

INTEREST RATES. We will tell you what interest rates and Guarantee Periods we
are offering at a particular time. We may declare different interest rates for
Guarantee Periods of the same length that begin at different times. We will not
change the interest rate that we credit to a particular allocation until the end
of the relevant Guarantee Period.

We have no specific formula for determining the rate of interest that we will
declare initially or in the future. We will set those interest rates based on
investment returns available at the time of the determination. In addition, we
may consider various other factors in determining interest rates including
regulatory and tax requirements, our sales commission and administrative
expenses, general economic trends, and competitive factors. WE DETERMINE THE
INTEREST RATES TO BE DECLARED IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION. WE CAN NEITHER PREDICT NOR
GUARANTEE WHAT THOSE RATES WILL BE IN THE FUTURE. For current interest rate
information, please contact your sales representative or Allstate New York at
1-800-692-4682. The interest rate will never be less than the minimum guaranteed
amount stated in the Contract.

HOW WE CREDIT INTEREST.

We will credit interest daily to each amount allocated to a Guarantee Period at
a rate that compounds to the effective annual interest rate that we declared at
the beginning of the applicable Guarantee Period.

The following example illustrates how a purchase payment allocated to the Fixed
Account would grow, given an assumed Guarantee Period and effective annual
interest rate:

TOTAL INTEREST CREDITED DURING GUARANTEE PERIOD = $2,461.82 ($12,461.82-$10,000)

This example assumes no withdrawals during the entire 5 year Guarantee Period.
If you were to make a withdrawal, you may be required to pay a withdrawal
charge. In addition, the amount withdrawn may be increased or decreased by a
Market Value Adjustment that reflects changes in interest rates since the time
you invested the amount withdrawn. The hypothetical interest rate is for
illustrative purposes only and is not intended to predict current or future
interest rates to be declared under the Contract. Actual interest rates declared
for any given Guarantee Period may be more or less than shown above but will
never be less than the guaranteed minimum rate stated in the Contract.

RENEWALS. Prior to the end of each Guarantee Period, we will mail you a notice
asking you what to do with your money, including the accrued interest. At the
end of the Guarantee Period, we will automatically renew the Guarantee Period
value to a new Guarantee Period of the shortest duration available, to be
established on the day the previous Guarantee Period expired, or to the Money
Market Variable Sub-account if no Guarantee Periods are available at the time of
expiration of the previous Guarantee Period. Please consult with your
representative. During the 30-day period after the end of the Guarantee Period,
you may:

1) Take no action. We will automatically apply your money to a Guarantee Period
of the shortest duration available or the Money Market Variable Sub-account. The
new Guarantee Period will begin on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends.
Please consult with your representative. The new interest rate will be the rate
in effect on the 1/ST/ day of the New Period; or

2) Instruct us to apply your money to one or more new Guarantee Periods of your
choice. The new Guarantee Period(s) will begin on the day the previous Guarantee
Period ends. The new interest rate will be our then current declared rate for
those Guarantee Periods; or

3) Instruct us to transfer all or a portion of your money to one or more
Variable Sub-Accounts. We will effect the transfer on the day we receive your
instructions. We will not adjust the amount transferred to include a Market
Value Adjustment; or

4) Withdraw all or a portion of your money. You may be required to pay a
withdrawal charge, but we will not adjust the amount withdrawn to include a
Market Value Adjustment. You may also be required to pay premium taxes and
withholding (if applicable). The amount withdrawn will be deemed to have been
withdrawn on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. Unless you specify
otherwise, amounts not withdrawn will be applied to a new Guarantee Period of
the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will begin on the day
the previous Guarantee Period ends.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT. All withdrawals in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal
Amount, transfers, and amounts applied to an Income Plan from a Guarantee
Period, other than those taken or applied during the 30 day period after such
Guarantee Period expires, are

                                  14 PROSPECTUS




subject to a Market Value Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment also will apply
when you apply amounts currently invested in a Guarantee Period to an Income
Plan (unless applied during the 30 day period after such Guarantee Period
expires). A Market Value Adjustment may apply in the calculation of the
Settlement Value described below in the "Death Benefit Amount" section below. We
will not apply a Market Value Adjustment to a transfer you make as part of a
Dollar Cost Averaging Program. We also will not apply a Market Value Adjustment
to a withdrawal you make:

..    within the Preferred Withdrawal Amount as described on page 18; or

..    to satisfy the IRS minimum distribution rules.

We apply the Market Value Adjustment to reflect changes in interest rates from
the time you first allocate money to a Guarantee Period to the time it is
removed from that Guarantee Period. We calculate the Market Value Adjustment by
comparing the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the Guarantee Period at its
inception to the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period when you remove your money. "TREASURY RATE" means the U.S.
Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported in Federal Reserve Board
Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment may be positive or negative, depending on changes in
interest rates. As such, you bear the investment risk associated with changes in
interest rates. If interest rates increase significantly, the Market Value
Adjustment and any withdrawal charge, premium taxes, and income tax withholding
(if applicable) could reduce the amount you receive upon full withdrawal of your
Contract Value to an amount that is less than the purchase payment plus interest
at the minimum guaranteed interest rate under the Contract.

Generally, if the Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee
Period is higher than the applicable current Treasury Rate for a period equal to
the time remaining in the Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment
will result in a higher amount payable to you, transferred, or applied to an
Income Plan. Conversely, if the Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to
a Guarantee Period is lower than the applicable Treasury Rate for a period equal
to the time remaining in the Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment
will result in a lower amount payable to you, transferred, or applied to an
Income Plan.

For example, assume that you purchase a Contract and you select an initial
Guarantee Period of 5 years and the 5 year Treasury Rate for that duration is
4.50%. Assume that at the end of 3 years, you make a partial withdrawal. If, at
that later time, the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.20%, then the Market
Value Adjustment will be positive, which will result in an increase in the
amount payable to you. Conversely, if the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.80%,
then the Market Value Adjustment will be negative, which will result in a
decrease in the amount payable to you.

The formula for calculating Market Value Adjustments is set forth in Appendix B
to this prospectus, which also contains additional examples of the application
of the Market Value Adjustment.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: TRANSFERS

TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE

During the Accumulation Phase, you may transfer Contract Value among the
investment alternatives. You may request in writing on a form that we provide or
by telephone according to the procedure described below. The minimum amount that
you may transfer into a Guarantee Period is $500. We currently do not assess,
but reserve the right to assess, a $10 charge on each transfer in excess of 12
per Contract Year. We treat transfers to or from more than one Fund on the same
day as one transfer.

We will process transfer requests that we receive before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit Values for that Date. We will
process requests completed after 4:00 p.m. on any Valuation Date using the
Accumulation Unit Values for the next Valuation Date. The Contract permits us to
defer transfers from the Fixed Account for up to 6 months from the date we
receive your request. If we decide to postpone transfers from any Guarantee
Period for 10 days or more, we will pay interest as required by applicable law.
Any interest would be payable from the date we receive the transfer request to
the date we make the transfer. If you transfer an amount from a Guarantee Period
other than during the 30 day period after such Guarantee Period expires, we will
increase or decrease the amount by a Market Value Adjustment.

TRANSFERS DURING THE PAYOUT PHASE

During the Payout Phase, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts
to change the relative weighting of the Variable Sub-Accounts on which your
variable income payments will be based. In addition, you will have a limited
ability to make transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the
proportion of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may
not, however, convert any portion of your right to receive fixed income payments
into variable income payments.

You may not make any transfers for the first 6 months after the Payout Start
Date. Thereafter, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts or make
transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the

                                  15 PROSPECTUS




proportion of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. Your
transfers must be at least 6 months apart.

TELEPHONE TRANSFERS

You may make transfers by telephone by calling 1-800-692-4682, if you first send
us a completed authorization form. The cut off time for telephone transfer
requests is 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event that the New York Stock
Exchange closes early, i.e., before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, or in the event that
the Exchange closes early for a period of time but then reopens for trading on
the same day, we will process telephone transfer requests as of the close of the
Exchange on that particular day. We will not accept telephone requests received
at any telephone number other than the number that appears in this paragraph or
received after the close of trading on the Exchange.

We may suspend, modify or terminate the telephone transfer privilege, as well as
any other electronic or automated means we previously approved, at any time
without notice.

We use procedures that we believe provide reasonable assurance that the
telephone transfers are genuine. For example, we tape telephone conversations
with persons purporting to authorize transfers and request identifying
information. Accordingly, we disclaim any liability for losses resulting from
allegedly unauthorized telephone transfers. However, if we do not take
reasonable steps to help ensure that a telephone authorization is valid, we may
be liable for such losses.

MARKET TIMING & EXCESSIVE TRADING

The Contracts are intended for long-term investment. Market timing and excessive
trading can potentially dilute the value of Variable Sub-Accounts and can
disrupt management of a Fund and raise its expenses, which can impair Fund
performance and adversely affect your Contract Value. Our policy is not to
accept knowingly any money intended for the purpose of market timing or
excessive trading. Accordingly, you should not invest in the Contract if your
purpose is to engage in market timing or excessive trading, and you should
refrain from such practices if you currently own a Contract.

We seek to detect market timing or excessive trading activity by reviewing
trading activities. Funds also may report suspected market-timing or excessive
trading activity to us. If, in our judgment, we determine that the transfers are
part of a market timing strategy or are otherwise harmful to the underlying
Fund, we will impose the trading limitations as described below under "Trading
Limitations." Because there is no universally accepted definition of what
constitutes market timing or excessive trading, we will use our reasonable
judgment based on all of the circumstances.

While we seek to deter market timing and excessive trading in Variable
Sub-Accounts, because our procedures involve the exercise of reasonable
judgment, we may not identify or prevent some market timing or excessive
trading. Moreover, imposition of trading limitations is triggered by the
detection of market timing or excessive trading activity, and the trading
limitations are not applied prior to detection of such trading activity.
Therefore, our policies and procedures do not prevent such trading activity
before it is detected. As a result, some investors may be able to engage in
market timing and excessive trading, while others are prohibited, and the
portfolio may experience the adverse effects of market timing and excessive
trading described above.

TRADING LIMITATIONS

We reserve the right to limit transfers among the investment alternatives in any
Contract Year, or to refuse any transfer request, if:

..    we believe, in our sole discretion, that certain trading practices, such as
     excessive trading, by, or on behalf of, one or more Contract Owners, or a
     specific transfer request or group of transfer requests, may have a
     detrimental effect on the Accumulation Unit Values of any Variable
     Sub-Account or on the share prices of the corresponding Fund or otherwise
     would be to the disadvantage of other Contract Owners; or

..    we are informed by one or more of the Funds that they intend to restrict
     the purchase, exchange, or redemption of Fund shares because of excessive
     trading or because they believe that a specific transfer or group of
     transfers would have a detrimental effect on the prices of Fund shares.

In making the determination that trading activity constitutes market timing or
excessive trading, we will consider, among other things:

..    the total dollar amount being transferred, both in the aggregate and in the
     transfer request;

..    the number of transfers you make over a period of time and/or the period of
     time between transfers (note: one set of transfers to and from a Variable
     Sub-Account in a short period of time can constitute market timing);

..    whether your transfers follow a pattern that appears designed to take
     advantage of short term market fluctuations, particularly within certain
     Variable Sub-Account underlying Funds that we have identified as being
     susceptible to market timing activities;

..    whether the manager of the underlying Fund has indicated that the transfers
     interfere with Fund management or otherwise adversely impact the Fund; and

..    the investment objectives and/or size of the Variable Sub-Account
     underlying Fund.

We seek to apply these trading limitations uniformly. However, because these
determinations involve the exercise of discretion, it is possible that we may
not detect some market timing or excessive trading activity. As a

                                  16 PROSPECTUS




result, it is possible that some investors may be able to engage in market
timing or excessive trading activity, while others are prohibited, and the Fund
may experience the adverse effects of market timing and excessive trading
described above.

If we determine that a Contract Owner has engaged in a pattern of market timing
or excessive trading activity involving multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, we will
require that all future transfer requests be submitted through regular U.S. mail
thereby refusing to accept transfer requests via telephone, facsimile, Internet,
or overnight delivery. In addition, for Contracts issued on or after May 1,
2000, if we determine that a Contract Owner has engaged in market timing or
excessive trading activity, we will also restrict that Contract Owner from
making future additions or transfers into the impacted Variable Sub-Account(s).

In our sole discretion, we may revise our Trading Limitations at any time as
necessary to better deter or minimize market timing and excessive trading or to
comply with regulatory requirements.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM

Through the Dollar Cost Averaging Program, you may automatically transfer a set
amount at regular intervals during the Accumulation Phase from any Variable
Sub-Account, or the 1 year Guarantee Period of the Fixed Account, to any other
Variable Sub-Account. The interval between transfers may be monthly, quarterly,
semi-annually, or annually. You may not use dollar cost averaging to transfer
amounts to the Fixed Account.

We will not charge a transfer fee for transfers made under this Program, nor
will such transfers count against the 12 transfers you can make each Contract
Year without paying a transfer fee. In addition, we will not apply the Market
Value Adjustment to these transfers.

The theory of dollar cost averaging is that if purchases of equal dollar amounts
are made at fluctuating prices, the aggregate average cost per unit will be less
than the average of the unit prices on the same purchase dates. However,
participation in this program does not assure you of a greater profit from your
purchases under the Program nor will it prevent or necessarily reduce losses in
a declining market. Call or write us for instructions on how to enroll.

AUTOMATIC FUND REBALANCING PROGRAM

Once you have allocated your money among the Variable Sub-Accounts, the
performance of each Sub-Account may cause a shift in the percentage you
allocated to each Sub-Account. If you select our Automatic Fund Rebalancing
Program, we will automatically rebalance the Contract Value in each Variable
Sub-Account and return it to the desired percentage allocations. Money you
allocate to the Fixed Account will not be included in the rebalancing.

We will rebalance your account each quarter according to your instructions. We
will transfer amounts among the Variable Sub-Accounts to achieve the percentage
allocations you specify. You can change your allocations at any time by
contacting us in writing or by telephone. The new allocation will be effective
with the first rebalancing that occurs after we receive your request. We are not
responsible for rebalancing that occurs prior to receipt of your request.

Example:

Assume that you want your initial purchase payment split among 2 Variable
Sub-Accounts. You want 40% to be in the AIM V.I. Diversified Income Variable
Sub-Account and 60% to be in the AIM V.I. Growth Variable Sub-Account. Over the
next 2 months the bond market does very well while the stock market performs
poorly. At the end of the first quarter, the AIM V.I. Diversified Income
Variable Sub-Account now represents 50% of your holdings because of its increase
in value. If you choose to have your holdings rebalanced quarterly, on the first
day of the next quarter we would sell some of your units in the AIM V.I.
Diversified Income Variable Sub-Account and use the money to buy more units in
the AIM V.I. Growth Variable Sub-Account so that the percentage allocations
would again be 40% and 60% respectively.

The Automatic Fund Rebalancing Program is available only during the Accumulation
Phase. The transfers made under the Program do not count towards the 12
transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee, and are not subject to a
transfer fee.

Fund rebalancing is consistent with maintaining your allocation of investments
among market segments, although it is accomplished by reducing your Contract
Value allocated to the better performing segments.

EXPENSES

As a Contract owner, you will bear, directly or indirectly, the charges and
expenses described below.

CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE

During the Accumulation Phase, on each Contract Anniversary, we will deduct a
$35 contract maintenance charge from your Contract Value invested in each

                                  17 PROSPECTUS




Variable Sub-Account in proportion to the amount invested. We also will deduct a
full contract maintenance charge if you withdraw your entire Contract Value,
unless your Contract qualifies for a waiver, described below. During the Payout
Phase, we will deduct the charge proportionately from each income payment.

The charge is for the cost of maintaining each Contract and the Variable
Account. Maintenance costs include expenses we incur in billing and collecting
purchase payments; keeping records; processing death claims, cash withdrawals,
and policy changes; proxy statements; calculating Accumulation Unit Values and
income payments; and issuing reports to Contract owners and regulatory agencies.
We cannot increase the charge. We will waive this charge if:

..    total purchase payments equal $50,000 or more, or

..    all money is allocated to the Fixed Account on a Contract Anniversary.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE

We deduct a mortality and expense risk charge daily at an annual rate of 1.35%
of the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts.
The mortality and expense risk charge is for all the insurance benefits
available with your Contract (including our guarantee of annuity rates and the
death benefits), for certain expenses of the Contract, and for assuming the risk
(expense risk) that the current charges will not be sufficient in the future to
cover the cost of administering the Contract. If the charges under the Contract
are not sufficient, then we will bear the loss.

We guarantee the mortality and expense risk charge and we cannot increase it. We
assess the mortality and expense risk charge during both the Accumulation Phase
and the Payout Phase.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE

We deduct an administrative expense charge daily at an annual rate of 0.10% of
the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts. We
intend this charge to cover actual administrative expenses that exceed the
revenues from the contract maintenance charge. There is no necessary
relationship between the amount of administrative charge imposed on a given
Contract and the amount of expenses that may be attributed to that Contract. We
assess this charge each day during the Accumulation Phase and the Payout Phase.
We guarantee that we will not raise this charge.

TRANSFER FEE

We do not currently impose a fee upon transfers among the investment
alternatives. However, we reserve the right to charge $10 per transfer after the
12th transfer in each Contract Year. We will not charge a transfer fee on
transfers that are part of a Dollar Cost Averaging Program or Automatic Fund
Rebalancing Program.

WITHDRAWAL CHARGE

We may assess a withdrawal charge of up to 7% of the purchase payment(s) you
withdraw in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market
Value Adjustment. The charge declines annually to 0% after 7 complete years from
the day we receive the purchase payment being withdrawn. A schedule showing how
the charge declines appears on page 7. During each Contract Year, you can
withdraw up to 10% of purchase payments without paying the charge. Unused
portions of this 10% "PREFERRED WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT" are not carried forward to
future Contract Years.

We determine the withdrawal charge by;

..    multiplying the percentage corresponding to the number of complete years
     since we received the purchase payment being withdrawn by

..    the part of each purchase payment withdrawal that is in excess of the
     Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment.

We will deduct withdrawal charges, if applicable, from the amount paid. For
purposes of the withdrawal charge, we will treat withdrawals as coming from the
oldest purchase payments first. However, for federal income tax purposes, please
note that withdrawals are considered to have come first from earnings in the
Contract. Thus, for tax purposes, earnings are considered to come out first,
which means you pay taxes on the earnings portion of your withdrawal.

If you make a withdrawal before the Payout Start Date, we will apply the
withdrawal charge percentage in effect on the date of the withdrawal, or the
withdrawal charge percentage in effect on the following day, whichever is
lower.We do not apply a withdrawal charge in the following situations:

..    on the Payout Start Date (a withdrawal charge may apply if you elect to
     receive income payments for a specified period of less than 120 months);

..    the death of the Contract owner or Annuitant (unless the Settlement Value
     is used);

..    withdrawals taken to satisfy IRS minimum distribution rules for the
     Contract; or

..    withdrawals made after all purchase payments have been withdrawn.

We use the amounts obtained from the withdrawal charge to pay sales commissions
and other promotional or distribution expenses associated with marketing the
Contracts. To the extent that the withdrawal charge does not cover all sales
commissions and other promotional or distribution expenses, we may use any of
our corporate assets, including potential profit which may arise from the
mortality and expense risk charge or any other charges or fee described above,
to make up any difference.

Withdrawals may be subject to tax penalties or income tax and a Market Value
Adjustment. You should consult your

                                  18 PROSPECTUS




own tax counsel or other tax advisers regarding any withdrawals.

We reserve the right to waive the withdrawal charge with respect to Contracts
issued to employees and registered representatives of any broker-dealer that has
entered into a sales agreement with ALFS, Inc. ("ALFS") to sell the Contracts
and all wholesalers and their employees that are under agreement with ALFS to
wholesale the Contract.

PREMIUM TAXES

Currently, we do not make deductions for premium taxes under the Contract
because New York does not charge premium taxes on annuities. We may deduct taxes
that may be imposed in the future from purchase payments or the Contract Value
when the tax is incurred or at a later time.

DEDUCTION FOR VARIABLE ACCOUNT INCOME TAXES

We are not currently making a provision for taxes. In the future, however, we
may make a provision for taxes if we determine, in our sole discretion, that we
will incur a tax as a result of the operation of the Variable Account. We will
deduct for any taxes we incur as a result of the operation of the Variable
Account, whether or not we previously made a provision for taxes and whether or
not it was sufficient. Our status under the Internal Revenue Code is briefly
described in the Taxes section.

OTHER EXPENSES

Each Fund deducts advisory fees and other expenses from its assets. You
indirectly bear the charges and expenses of the Fund whose shares are held by
the Variable Sub-Accounts. These fees and expenses are described in the
accompanying prospectus for the Funds. For a summary of current estimates of
those charges and expenses, see pages 7-8 above.

We may receive compensation from A I M Advisors, Inc., for administrative
services we provide to the Funds.

ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

You can withdraw some or all of your Contract Value at any time prior to the
Payout Start Date. Withdrawals also are available under limited circumstances on
or after the Payout Start Date. See "Income Plans" on page 20.

The amount payable upon withdrawal is the Contract Value next computed after we
receive the request for a withdrawal at our service center, adjusted by any
Market Value Adjustment, less any withdrawal charges, contract maintenance
charges, income tax withholding, and any premium taxes. We will pay withdrawals
from the Variable Account within 7 days of receipt of the request, subject to
postponement in certain circumstances.

You can withdraw money from the Variable Account or the Fixed Account. To
complete a partial withdrawal from the Variable Account, we will cancel
Accumulation Units in an amount equal to the withdrawal and any applicable
withdrawal charge and premium taxes.

You have the opportunity to name the investment alternative(s) from which you
are taking the withdrawal. If none is specified, we will deduct your withdrawal
pro-rata from the investment alternatives according to the value of your
investments therein.

In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a time. You also may withdraw a
lesser amount if you are withdrawing your entire interest in a Variable Sub-
Account.

If you request a total withdrawal, we may require that you return your Contract
to us. We also will deduct a Contract Maintenance Charge of $35, unless we have
waived the Contract Maintenance Charge on your Contract.

Withdrawals taken prior to annuitization (referred to in this prospectus as the
Payout Phase) are generally considered to come from the earnings in the Contract
first. If the Contract is tax-qualified, generally all withdrawals are treated
as distributions of earnings. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10%
federal tax penalty.

POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS

We may postpone the payment of any amounts due from the Variable Account under
the Contract if:

1.   The New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than usual weekends or
     holidays, or trading on the Exchange is otherwise restricted;

2.   An emergency exists as defined by the SEC; or

3.   The SEC permits delay for your protection.

In addition, we may delay payments or transfers from the Fixed Account for up to
6 months or shorter period if required by law. If we delay payment or transfer
for 10 days or more, we will pay interest as required by law. Any interest would
be payable from the date we receive the withdrawal request to the date we make
the payment or transfer.

                                  19 PROSPECTUS




SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM

You may choose to receive systematic withdrawal payments on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis at any time prior to the Payout Start
Date. The minimum amount of each systematic withdrawal is $50. At our
discretion, systematic withdrawals may not be offered in conjunction with the
Dollar Cost Averaging or the Automatic Fund Rebalancing Programs.

Depending on fluctuations in the accumulation unit value of the Variable
Sub-Accounts and the value of the Fixed Account, systematic withdrawals may
reduce or even exhaust the Contract Value. We will make systematic withdrawal
payments to you or your designated payee. We may modify or suspend the
Systematic Withdrawal Program and charge a processing fee for the service. If we
modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program, existing systematic
withdrawal payments will not be affected.

MINIMUM CONTRACT VALUE

If your request for a partial withdrawal would reduce the amount in any
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we will treat it as a request to withdraw
the entire amount invested in such Guarantee Period. In addition, if your
request for a partial withdrawal would reduce the Contract Value to less than
$1,000, we may treat it as a request to withdraw your entire Contract Value.
Before terminating any Contract whose value has been reduced by withdrawals to
less than $1,000, we would inform you in writing of our intention to terminate
your Contract and give you at least 30 days in which to make an additional
Purchase Payment to restore your Contract's value to the contractual minimum of
$1,000. Your Contract will terminate if you withdraw all of your Contract Value.
We will, however, ask you to confirm your withdrawal request before terminating
your Contract. If we terminate your Contract, we will distribute to you its
Contract Value, adjusted by any applicable Market Value Adjustment, less
withdrawal and other charges, and applicable taxes. Your Contract will terminate
if you withdraw all of your Contract Value.

INCOME PAYMENTS

PAYOUT START DATE

The Payout Start Date is the day that we apply your Contract Value, adjusted by
any Market Value Adjustment and less any applicable taxes, to an Income Plan.
The Payout Start Date must be no later than the Annuitant's 90th birthday.

You may change the Payout Start Date at any time by notifying us in writing of
the change at least 30 days before the scheduled Payout Start Date. Absent a
change, we will use the Payout Start Date stated in your Contract.

INCOME PLANS

An "Income Plan" is a series of payments on a scheduled basis to you or to
another person designated by you. You may choose and change your choice of
Income Plan until 30 days before the Payout Start Date. If you do not select an
Income Plan, we will make income payments in accordance with Income Plan 1 with
guaranteed payments for 10 years. After the Payout Start Date, you may not make
withdrawals (except as described below) or change your choice of Income Plan.
Three Income Plans are available under the Contract. Each is available to
provide:

..    fixed income payments;

..    variable income payments; or

..    a combination of the two.

A portion of each payment will be considered taxable and the remaining portion
will be a non-taxable return of your investment in the Contract, which is also
called the "basis". Once the basis in the Contract is depleted, all remaining
payments will be fully taxable. If the Contract is tax-qualified, generally, all
payments will be fully taxable. Taxable payments taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

The three Income Plans are:

INCOME PLAN 1 - LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under this plan, we make
periodic income payments for at least as long as the Annuitant lives. If the
Annuitant dies before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we
will continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required
by the Contract.

INCOME PLAN 2 - JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under
this plan, we make periodic income payments for at least as long as either the
Annuitant or the joint Annuitant is alive. If both the Annuitant and the joint
Annuitant die before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we will
continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required by
the Contract.

INCOME PLAN 3 - GUARANTEED PAYMENTS FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD (5 YEARS TO 30
YEARS). Under this plan, we make periodic income payments for the period you
have chosen. These payments do not depend on the Annuitant's life. Income
payments for less than 120 months may be subject to a withdrawal charge. We will
deduct the mortality and expense risk charge from the Variable Sub-Account
assets that support the variable income payments even though we may not bear any
mortality risk.

The length of any guaranteed payment period under your selected Income Plan
generally will affect the dollar amounts of each income payment. As a general
rule,

                                  20 PROSPECTUS




longer guarantee periods result in lower income payments, all other things being
equal. For example, if you choose an Income Plan with payments that depend on
the life of the Annuitant but with no minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments, the income payments generally will be greater than the income payments
made under the same Income Plan with a minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments.

If you choose Income Plan 1 or 2, or, if available, another Income Plan with
payments that continue for the life of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant, we may
require proof of age and sex of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant before starting
income payments, and proof that the Annuitant or joint Annuitant is alive before
we make each payment. Please note that under such Income Plans, if you elect to
take no minimum guaranteed payments, it is possible that the payee could receive
only 1 income payment if the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant both die before
the second income payment, or only 2 income payments if they die before the
third income payment, and so on.

Generally, you may not make withdrawals after the Payout Start Date. One
exception to this rule applies if you are receiving variable income payments
that do not depend on the life of the Annuitant (such as under Income Plan 3).
In that case you may terminate all or part of the Variable Account portion of
the income payments at any time and receive a lump sum equal to the present
value of the remaining variable payments associated with the amount withdrawn.
To determine the present value of any remaining variable income payments being
withdrawn, we use a discount rate equal to the assumed annual investment rate
that we use to compute such variable income payments. The minimum amount you may
withdraw under this feature is $1,000. A withdrawal charge may apply. We deduct
applicable premium taxes from the Contract Value at the Payout Start Date.

We may make other Income Plans available. You may obtain information about them
by writing or calling us.

You must apply at least the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the Payout
Start Date to fixed income payments. If you wish to apply any portion of your
Fixed Account balance to provide variable income payments, you should plan ahead
and transfer that amount to the Variable Sub-Accounts prior to the Payout Start
Date. If you do not tell us how to allocate your Contract Value among fixed and
variable income payments, we will apply your Contract Value in the Variable
Account to variable income payments and your Contract Value in the Fixed Account
to fixed income payments.

We will apply your Contract Value, adjusted by any applicable Market Value
Adjustment, less applicable taxes to your Income Plan on the Payout Start Date.
If the amount available to apply under an Income Plan is less than $2,000 or not
enough to provide an initial payment of at least $20, and state law permits, we
may:

..    pay you the Contract Value, adjusted by any Market Value Adjustment and
     less any applicable taxes, in a lump sum instead of the periodic payments
     you have chosen; or

..    reduce the frequency of your payments so that each payment will be at least
     $20.

VARIABLE INCOME PAYMENTS

The amount of your variable income payments depends upon the investment results
of the Variable Sub-Accounts you select, the premium taxes you pay, the age and
sex of the Annuitant, and the Income Plan you choose. We guarantee that the
payments will not be affected by (a) actual mortality experience and (b) the
amount of our administration expenses.

We cannot predict the total amount of your variable income payments. Your
variable income payments may be more or less than your total purchase payments
because (a) variable income payments vary with the investment results of the
underlying Funds and (b) the Annuitant could live longer or shorter than we
expect based on the tables we use.

In calculating the amount of the periodic payments in the annuity tables in the
Contract, we assumed an annual investment rate of 3%. If the actual net
investment return of the Variable Sub-Accounts you choose is less than this
assumed investment rate, then the dollar amount of your variable income payments
will decrease. The dollar amount of your variable income payments will increase,
however, if the actual net investment return exceeds the assumed investment
rate. The dollar amount of the variable income payments stays level if the net
investment return equals the assumed investment rate. Please refer to the
Statement of Additional Information for more detailed information as to how we
determine variable income payments.

FIXED INCOME PAYMENTS

We guarantee income payment amounts derived from the Fixed Account for the
duration of the Income Plan. We calculate the fixed income payments by:

1)   adjusting the portion of the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the
     Payout Start Date by any applicable Market Value Adjustment;

2)   deducting any applicable premium tax; and

3)   applying the resulting amount to the greater of (a) the appropriate value
     from the income payment table in your Contract or (b) such other value as
     we are offering at that time.

We may defer making fixed income payments for a period of up to 6 months or such
shorter time as state law may require. If we defer payments for 10 business days
or more, we will pay interest as required by law from the date we receive the
withdrawal request to the date we make payment.

                                  21 PROSPECTUS




CERTAIN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Contracts offered by this prospectus contain income payment tables that
provide for different payments to men and women of the same age. However, we
reserve the right to use income payment tables that do not distinguish on the
basis of sex to the extent permitted by law. In certain employment-related
situations, employers are required by law to use the same income payment tables
for men and women. Accordingly, if the Contract is to be used in connection with
an employment-related retirement or benefit plan, you should consult with legal
counsel as to whether the purchase of a Contract is appropriate. For qualified
plans, where it is appropriate, we may use income payment tables that do not
distinguish on the basis of sex.

DEATH BENEFITS

We will pay a death benefit if, prior to the Payout Start Date:

1.   any Contract owner dies; or

2.   the Annuitant dies, if the Contract owner is not a living person.

We will pay the death benefit to the new Contract owner who is determined
immediately after the death. The new Contract owner would be a surviving
Contract owner or, if none, the Beneficiary(ies). In the case of a Contract
owned by a non-living owner, upon death of an Annuitant, we will pay the death
benefit to the current Contract owner.

We will not settle any death claim until we receive DUE PROOF OF DEATH.

We will accept the following documentation as Due Proof of Death:

..    a certified copy of a death certificate; or

..    a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to a
     finding of death; or

any other proof acceptable to us.

Where there are multiple beneficiaries, we will only value the death benefit at
the time the first beneficiary submits the necessary documentation in good
order. Any death benefit amounts attributable to any beneficiary which remain in
the investment divisions are subject to investment risk.

DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT

Prior to the Payout Start Date, the death benefit is equal to the greatest of:

1.   the Contract Value as of the date we determine the death benefit; or

2.   the SETTLEMENT VALUE (that is, the amount payable on a full withdrawal of
     Contract Value) on the date we determine the death benefit; or

3.   the Contract Value on the DEATH BENEFIT ANNIVERSARY immediately preceding
     the date we determine the death benefit, adjusted by any purchase payments,
     partial withdrawals and charges made since that Death Benefit Anniversary.
     A "Death Benefit Anniversary" is every seventh Contract Anniversary
     beginning with the Issue Date. For example, the Issue Date, 7th and 14th
     Contract Anniversaries are the first three Death Benefit Anniversaries; or

4.   the greatest of the ANNIVERSARY VALUES as of the date we determine the
     death benefit. An "Anniversary Value" is equal to the Contract Value on a
     Contract Anniversary, increased by purchase payments made since that
     Anniversary and reduced by the amount of any partial withdrawals since that
     anniversary. Anniversary Values will be calculated for each Contract
     Anniversary prior to the earlier of: (i) the date we determine the death
     benefit; or (ii) the deceased's 75th birthday or 5 years after the Issue
     Date, if later.

In calculating the Settlement Value, the amount in each individual Guarantee
Period may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment
will apply to amounts in a Guarantee Period, unless we calculate the Settlement
Value during the 30-day period after the expiration of the Guarantee Period.
Also, the Settlement Value will reflect deduction of any applicable withdrawal
charges, contract maintenance charges, and premium taxes.

We will determine the value of the death benefit as of the end of the Valuation
Date on which we receive a complete request for payment of the death benefit,
which includes Due Proof of Death. If we receive a request after 4:00 p.m.
Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on a Valuation Date, we will process the
request as of the end of the following Valuation Date.

DEATH BENEFIT PAYMENTS

If the new Owner is your spouse, the new Owner may:

1.   elect to receive the Death Benefit in a lump sum, or

2.   elect to apply the Death Benefit to an Income Plan. Payments from the
     Income Plan must begin within 1 year of the date of death and must be
     payable throughout:

..    The life of the new Owner; or

..    for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years, but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of the new Owner; or

..    over the life of the new Owner with a guaranteed number of payments from 5
     to 30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of the new Owner.

If your spouse does not elect one of the above options above, the Contract will
continue in the Accumulation

                                  22 PROSPECTUS




Phase as if the death had not occurred. If the Contract is continued in the
Accumulation Phase, the following restrictions apply:

..    On the date the Contract is continued, the Contract Value will equal the
     amount of the Death Benefit as determined as of the Valuation Date on which
     we received the completed request for settlement of the Death Benefit (the
     next Valuation Date, if we receive the completed request for settlement of
     the Death Benefit after 3 p.m. Central Time). Unless otherwise instructed
     by the continuing spouse, the excess, if any, of the Death Benefit over the
     Contract Value will be allocated to the Sub-Accounts of the Variable
     Account. This excess will be allocated in proportion to your Contract Value
     in those Sub-accounts as of the end of the Valuation Period during which we
     receive the completed request for settlement of the Death Benefit, except
     that any portion of this excess attributable to the Fixed Account Options
     will be allocated to the Money Market Sub-account. Within 30 days of the
     date the Contract is continued, your surviving spouse may choose one of the
     following transfer alternatives without incurring a transfer fee:

..    transfer all or a portion of the excess among the Variable Sub-Accounts;

..    transfer all or a portion of the excess into the Guaranteed Maturity Fixed
     Account and begin a new Guarantee Period; or

..    transfer all or a portion of the excess into a combination of Variable
     Sub-Accounts and the Guaranteed Maturity Fixed Account.

Any such transfer does not count as one of the free transfers allowed each
Contract Year and is subject to any minimum allocation amount specified in your
Contract.

The surviving spouse may make a single withdrawal of any amount within one year
of the date of death without incurring a Withdrawal Charge.

Only one spousal continuation is allowed under this Contract.

If the new Owner is not your spouse but is a living person, the new Owner may:

1)   elect to receive the Death Benefit in a lump sum, or

2)   elect to apply the Death Benefit to an Income Plan. Payments from the
     Income Plan must begin within 1 year of the date of death and must be
     payable throughout:

..    the life of the new Owner; or

..    for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years, but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of the new Owner; or

..    over the life of the new Owner with a guaranteed number of payments from 5
     to 30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of the new Owner.

If the new Owner does not elect one of the above options above, then the new
Owner must receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of your date of
death. The Contract Value will equal the amount of the Death Benefit as
determined as of the Valuation Date on which we received the completed request
for settlement of the Death Benefit (the next Valuation Date, if we receive the
completed request for settlement of the Death Benefit after 3 p.m. Central
Time). Unless otherwise instructed by the new Owner, the excess, if any, of the
Death Benefit over the Contract Value will be allocated to the Money Market
Variable Sub-Account. The new Owner may exercise all rights as set forth in the
TRANSFERS section during this 5 year period.

No additional Purchase Payments may be added to the Contract under this
election. Withdrawal Charges will be waived for any withdrawals made during this
5 year period.

If the new Owner dies prior to the receiving all of the Contract Value, then the
new Owner's named Beneficiary(ies) will receive the greater of the Settlement
Value or the remaining Contract Value. This amount must be received as a lump
sum within 5 years of the date of the original Owner's death.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon Death of Owner.

If the new Owner is a corporation, trust, or other non-living person:

(a)  The new Owner may elect, within 180 days of the date of death, to receive
     the Death Benefit in a lump sum; or

(b)  If the new Owner does not elect the option above, then the new Owner must
     receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of your date of death. On
     the date we receive the complete request for settlement of the Death
     Benefit, the Contract Value under this option will be the Death Benefit.
     Unless otherwise instructed by the new Owner, the excess, if any of the
     Death Benefit over the Contract Value will be allocated to the Money Market
     Variable Sub-Account. The new Owner may exercise all rights set forth in
     the Transfers provision during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon Death of Owner.

If any new Owner is a non-living person, all new Owners will be considered to be
non-living persons for the above purposes.

Under any of these options, all ownership rights, subject to any restrictions
previously placed upon the Beneficiary, are available to the new Owner from the
date of your death to the date on which the death proceeds are paid.

DEATH OF ANNUITANT

 If the Annuitant who is not also the Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout
Start Date and the Contract Owner is

                                  23 PROSPECTUS




a living person, then the Contract will continue with a new Annuitant as
designated by the Contract Owner.

If the Annuitant who is not also the Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout
Start Date and the Contract Owner is a non-living person, the following apply:

(a)  The Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Benefit in a lump sum; or

(b)  If the new Owner does not elect the option above, then the Owner must
     receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of the Annuitant's date
     of death. On the date we receive the complete request for settlement of the
     Death Benefit, the Contract Value under this option will be the Death
     Benefit. Unless otherwise instructed by the Contract Owner, the excess, if
     any, of the Death Benefit over the Contract Value will be allocated to the
     Money Market Variable Sub-Account. The Contract Owner may then exercise all
     rights set forth in the Transfers provision during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon Death of Annuitant.

MORE INFORMATION

ALLSTATE NEW YORK

Allstate New York is the issuer of the Contract. Allstate New York is a stock
life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of New York.
Allstate New York was incorporated in 1967 and was known as "Financial Life
Insurance Company" from 1967 to 1978. From 1978 to 1984, Allstate New York was
known as "PM Life Insurance Company." Since 1984 the company has been known as
"Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York."

Allstate New York is currently licensed to operate in New York. Our home office
is located at 100 Motor Parkway, Hauppauge, NY 11788-5107. Our service center is
located in Vernon Hills, Illinois.

Allstate New York is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance
Company ("Allstate Life"), a stock life insurance company incorporated under the
laws of the State of Illinois. Allstate Life is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Allstate Insurance Company, a stock property-liability insurance company
incorporated under the laws of Illinois. With the exception of the directors
qualifying shares, all of the outstanding capital stock of Allstate Insurance
Company is owned by The Allstate Corporation.

THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT

Allstate New York established the Allstate Life of New York Separate Account A
on December 15, 1995. We have registered the Variable Account with the SEC as a
unit investment trust. The SEC does not supervise the management of the Variable
Account or Allstate New York.

We own the assets of the Variable Account. The Variable Account is a segregated
asset account under New York law. That means we account for the Variable
Account's income, gains and losses separately from the results of our other
operations. It also means that only the assets of the Variable Account that are
in excess of the reserves and other Contract liabilities with respect to the
Variable Account are subject to liabilities relating to our other operations.
Our obligations arising under the Contracts are general corporate obligations of
Allstate New York.

The Variable Account consists of multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, 18 of which are
available through the Contracts. Each Variable Sub-Account invests in a
corresponding Fund. We may add new Variable Sub-Accounts or eliminate one or
more of them, if we believe marketing, tax, or investment conditions so warrant.
We do not guarantee the investment performance of the Variable Account, its
Sub-Accounts or the Funds. We may use the Variable Account to fund our other
annuity contracts. We will account separately for each type of annuity contract
funded by the Variable Account.

THE FUNDS

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS. We automatically reinvest all
dividends and capital gains distributions from the Funds in shares of the
distributing Fund at their net asset value.

VOTING PRIVILEGES. As a general matter, you do not have a direct right to vote
the shares of the Funds held by the Variable Sub-Accounts to which you have
allocated your Contract Value. Under current law, however, you are entitled to
give us instructions on how to vote those shares on certain matters. Based on
our present view of the law, we will vote the shares of the Funds that we hold
directly or indirectly through the Variable Account in accordance with
instructions that we receive from Contract owners entitled to give such
instructions.

As a general rule, before the Payout Start Date, the Contract owner or anyone
with a voting interest is the person entitled to give voting instructions. The
number of shares that a person has a right to instruct will be determined by
dividing the Contract Value allocated to the applicable Variable Sub-Account by
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund as of the record date of
the meeting. After the Payout Start Date, the person receiving income payments
has the voting interest. The payee's number of votes will be determined by
dividing the reserve for such Contract allocated to the applicable Variable
Sub-Account by the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund. The
votes decrease as income payments are made and as the reserves for the Contract
decrease.

                                  24 PROSPECTUS




We will vote shares attributable to Contracts for which we have not received
instructions, as well as shares attributable to us, in the same proportion as we
vote shares for which we have received instructions, unless we determine that we
may vote such shares in our own discretion. We will apply voting instructions to
abstain on any item to be voted on a pro-rata basis to reduce the votes eligible
to be cast.

We reserve the right to vote Fund shares as we see fit without regard to voting
instructions to the extent permitted by law. If we disregard voting
instructions, we will include a summary of that action and our reasons for that
action in the next semi-annual financial report we send to you.

CHANGES IN FUNDS. If the shares of any of the Funds are no longer available for
investment by the Variable Account or if, in our judgment, further investment in
such shares is no longer desirable in view of the purposes of the Contract, we
may eliminate that Fund and substitute shares of another eligible investment
fund. Any substitution of securities will comply with the requirements of the
1940 Act. We also may add new Variable Sub-Accounts that invest in underlying
Funds. We will notify you in advance of any changes.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Certain of the Funds sell their shares to Variable
Accounts underlying both variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts.
It is conceivable that in the future it may be unfavorable for variable life
insurance Variable Accounts and variable annuity Variable Accounts to invest in
the same Fund. The boards of trustees of these Funds monitor for possible
conflicts among Variable Accounts buying shares of the Funds. Conflicts could
develop for a variety of reasons. For example, differences in treatment under
tax and other laws or the failure by a Variable Account to comply with such laws
could cause a conflict. To eliminate a conflict, a Fund's board of trustees may
require a Variable Account to withdraw its participation in a Fund. A Fund's net
asset value could decrease if it had to sell investment securities to pay
redemption proceeds to a Variable Account withdrawing because of a conflict.

THE CONTRACT

DISTRIBUTION. ALFS, Inc. ("ALFS"), located at 3100 Sanders Road, Northbrook,
Illinois 60062, serves as principal underwriter of the Contracts. ALFS is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company. ALFS is a registered
broker dealer under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
("EXCHANGE ACT"), and is a member of the NASD.

We will pay commissions to broker-dealers who sell the Contracts. Commissions
paid may vary, but we estimate that the total commissions paid on all Contract
sales will not exceed 8 1/2% of any purchase payments. Sometimes, we also pay
the broker-dealer a persistency bonus in addition to the standard commissions. A
persistency bonus is not expected to exceed .56%, on an annual basis, of the
purchase payments considered in connection with the bonus. These commissions are
intended to cover distribution expenses.

Allstate New York does not pay ALFS a commission for distribution of the
Contracts. The underwriting agreement with ALFS provides that we will reimburse
ALFS for any liability to Contract owners arising out of services rendered or
Contracts issued.

ADMINISTRATION. We have primary responsibility for all administration of the
Contracts and the Variable Account.

We provide the following administrative services, among others:

..    issuance of the Contracts;

..    maintenance of Contract owner records;

..    Contract owner services;

..    calculation of unit values;

..    maintenance of the Variable Account; and

..    preparation of Contract owner reports.

We will send you Contract statements and transaction confirmations at least
annually. The annual statement details values and specific Contract data for
each particular Contract. You should notify us promptly in writing of any
address change. You should read your statements and confirmations carefully and
verify their accuracy. You should contact us promptly if you have a question
about a periodic statement. We will investigate all complaints and make any
necessary adjustments retroactively, but you must notify us of a potential error
within a reasonable time after the date of the questioned statement. If you wait
too long, we will make the adjustment as of the date that we receive notice of
the potential error.

We also will provide you with additional periodic and other reports, information
and prospectuses as may be required by federal securities laws.

NON-QUALIFIED ANNUITIES HELD WITHIN A QUALIFIED PLAN

If you use the Contract within an employer sponsored qualified retirement plan,
the plan may impose different or additional conditions or limitations on
withdrawals, waivers of withdrawal charges, death benefits, Payout Start Dates,
income payments and other Contract features. In addition, adverse tax
consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions and other
conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan administrator for
more information. Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York no longer issues
deferred annuities to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

TAXES

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS GENERAL AND IS NOT INTENDED AS TAX ADVICE. ALLSTATE
NEW YORK MAKES NO GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX TREATMENT OF ANY CONTRACT OR
TRANSACTION INVOLVING A CONTRACT.

Federal, state, local and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of
distributions under an annuity contract depend on your individual circumstances.
If you are concerned about any tax consequences with regard to your individual
circumstances, you should consult a competent tax adviser.

TAXATION OF ALLSTATE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK

Allstate New York is taxed as a life insurance company under Part I of
Subchapter L of the Code. Since the Variable Account is not an entity separate
from Allstate New York, and its operations form a part of Allstate New York, it
will not be taxed separately. Investment income and realized capital gains of
the Variable Account are automatically applied to increase reserves under the
Contract. Under existing federal income tax law, Allstate New York believes that
the Variable Account investment income and capital gains will not be taxed to
the extent that such income and gains are applied to increase the reserves under
the Contract. Accordingly, Allstate New York does not anticipate that it will
incur any federal income tax liability attributable to the Variable Account, and
therefore Allstate New York does not intend to make provisions for any such
taxes. If Allstate New York is taxed on investment income or capital gains of
the Variable Account, then Allstate New York may impose a charge against the
Variable Account in order to make provision for such taxes.

TAXATION OF VARIABLE ANNUITIES IN GENERAL

TAX DEFERRAL. Generally, you are not taxed on increases in the Contract Value
until a distribution occurs. This rule applies only where:

..    the Contract Owner is a natural person,

..    the investments of the Variable Account are "adequately diversified"
     according to Treasury Department regulations, and

..    Allstate New York is considered the owner of the Variable Account assets
     for federal income tax purposes.

NON-NATURAL OWNERS. Non-natural owners are also referred to as Non Living Owners
in this prospectus. As a general rule, annuity contracts owned by non-natural
persons such as corporations, trusts, or other entities are not treated as
annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. The income on such contracts
does not enjoy tax deferral and is taxed as ordinary income received or accrued
by the non-natural owner during the taxable year.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE NON-NATURAL OWNER RULE. There are several exceptions to the
general rule that annuity contracts held by a non-natural owner are not treated
as annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. Contracts will generally
be treated as held by a natural person if the nominal owner is a trust or other
entity which holds the contract as agent for a natural person. However, this
special exception will not apply in the case of an employer who is the nominal
owner of an annuity contract under a non-Qualified deferred compensation
arrangement for its employees. Other exceptions to the non-natural owner rule
are: (1) contracts acquired by an estate of a decedent by reason of the death of
the decedent; (2) certain qualified contracts; (3) contracts purchased by
employers upon the termination of certain qualified plans; (4) certain contracts
used in connection with structured settlement agreements; and (5) immediate
annuity contracts, purchased with a single premium, when the annuity starting
date is no later than a year from purchase of the annuity and substantially
equal periodic payments are made, not less frequently than annually, during the
annuity period.

GRANTOR TRUST OWNED ANNUITY. Contracts owned by a grantor trust are considered
owned by a non-natural owner. Grantor trust owned contracts receive tax deferral
as described in the Exceptions to the Non-Natural Owner Rule section. In
accordance with the Code, upon the death of the annuitant, the death benefit
must be paid. According to your Contract, the Death Benefit is paid to the
surviving Contract Owner. Since the trust will be the surviving Contract Owner
in all cases, the Death Benefit will be payable to the trust notwithstanding any
beneficiary designation on the annuity contract. A trust, including a grantor
trust, has two options for receiving any death benefits: 1) a lump sum payment;
or 2) payment deferred up to five years from date of death.

DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. For a Contract to be treated as an annuity for
federal income tax purposes, the investments in the Variable Account must be
"adequately diversified" consistent with standards under Treasury Department
regulations. If the investments in the Variable Account are not adequately
diversified, the Contract will not be treated as an annuity contract for federal
income tax purposes. As a result, the income on the Contract will be taxed as
ordinary income received or accrued by the Contract owner during the taxable
year. Although Allstate New York does not have control over the Portfolios or
their investments, we expect the Portfolios to meet the diversification
requirements.

OWNERSHIP TREATMENT. The IRS has stated that a contract owner will be considered
the owner of separate account assets if he possesses incidents of ownership in
those assets, such as the ability to exercise investment control over the
assets. At the time the diversification regulations were issued, the Treasury
Department

                                  27 PROSPECTUS




announced that the regulations do not provide guidance concerning circumstances
in which investor control of the separate account investments may cause a
Contract owner to be treated as the owner of the separate account. The Treasury
Department also stated that future guidance would be issued regarding the extent
that owners could direct sub-account investments without being treated as owners
of the underlying assets of the separate account.

Your rights under the Contract are different than those described by the IRS in
private and published rulings in which it found that Contract owners were not
owners of separate account assets. For example, if your contract offers more
than twenty (20) investment alternatives you have the choice to allocate
premiums and contract values among a broader selection of investment
alternatives than described in such rulings. You may be able to transfer among
investment alternatives more frequently than in such rulings. These differences
could result in you being treated as the owner of the Variable Account. If this
occurs, income and gain from the Variable Account assets would be includible in
your gross income. Allstate New York does not know what standards will be set
forth in any regulations or rulings which the Treasury Department may issue. It
is possible that future standards announced by the Treasury Department could
adversely affect the tax treatment of your Contract. We reserve the right to
modify the Contract as necessary to attempt to prevent you from being considered
the federal tax owner of the assets of the Variable Account. However, we make no
guarantee that such modification to the Contract will be successful.

TAXATION OF PARTIAL AND FULL WITHDRAWALS. If you make a partial withdrawal under
a Non-Qualified Contract, amounts received are taxable to the extent the
Contract Value, without regard to surrender charges, exceeds the investment in
the Contract. The investment in the Contract is the gross premium paid for the
contract minus any amounts previously received from the Contract if such amounts
were properly excluded from your gross income. If you make a full withdrawal
under a Non-Qualified Contract, the amount received will be taxable only to the
extent it exceeds the investment in the Contract.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS. Generally, the rule for income taxation of annuity
payments received from a Non-Qualified Contract provides for the return of your
investment in the Contract in equal tax-free amounts over the payment period.
The balance of each payment received is taxable. For fixed annuity payments, the
amount excluded from income is determined by multiplying the payment by the
ratio of the investment in the Contract (adjusted for any refund feature or
period certain) to the total expected value of annuity payments for the term of
the Contract. If you elect variable annuity payments, the amount excluded from
taxable income is determined by dividing the investment in the Contract by the
total number of expected payments. The annuity payments will be fully taxable
after the total amount of the investment in the Contract is excluded using these
ratios. If any variable payment is less than the excludable amount you should
contact a competent tax advisor to determine how to report any unrecovered
investment. The federal tax treatment of annuity payments is unclear in some
respects. As a result, if the IRS should provide further guidance, it is
possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as taxable could be
different. If you die, and annuity payments cease before the total amount of the
investment in the Contract is recovered, the unrecovered amount will be allowed
as a deduction for your last taxable year.

WITHDRAWALS AFTER THE PAYOUT START DATE. Federal tax law is unclear regarding
the taxation of any additional withdrawal received after the Payout Start Date.
It is possible that a greater or lesser portion of such a payment could be
taxable than the amount we determine.

DISTRIBUTION AT DEATH RULES. In order to be considered an annuity contract for
federal income tax purposes, the Contract must provide:

..    if any Contract Owner dies on or after the Payout Start Date but before the
     entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, the remaining portion
     of such interest must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
     method of distribution being used as of the date of the Contract Owner's
     death;

..    if any Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the entire
     interest in the Contract will be distributed within 5 years after the date
     of the Contract Owner's death. These requirements are satisfied if any
     portion of the Contract Owner's interest that is payable to (or for the
     benefit of) a designated Beneficiary is distributed over the life of such
     Beneficiary (or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of
     the Beneficiary) and the distributions begin within 1 year of the Contract
     Owner's death. If the Contract Owner's designated Beneficiary is the
     surviving spouse of the Contract Owner, the Contract may be continued with
     the surviving spouse as the new Contract Owner;

..    if the Contract Owner is a non-natural person, then the Annuitant will be
     treated as the Contract Owner for purposes of applying the distribution at
     death rules. In addition, a change in the Annuitant on a Contract owned by
     a non-natural person will be treated as the death of the Contract Owner.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY DEATH BENEFITS. Death Benefit amounts are included in income
as follows:

..    if distributed in a lump sum, the amounts are taxed in the same manner as a
     total withdrawal, or

..    if distributed under an Income Plan, the amounts are taxed in the same
     manner as annuity payments.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS. A 10% penalty tax applies to the taxable
amount of any

                                  28 PROSPECTUS




premature distribution from a non-Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally
applies to any distribution made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2.
However, no penalty tax is incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or becoming totally
     disabled,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made under an immediate annuity, or

..    attributable to investment in the Contract before August 14, 1982.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS. With respect to non-Qualified Contracts
using substantially equal periodic payments or immediate annuity payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the Contract Owner's attaining age 59 1/2 would be
subject to a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax
applied. The tax for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty
tax that would have been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the
years in which the exception was used. A material modification does not include
permitted changes described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a
competent tax advisor prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal
periodic payment stream.

TAX FREE EXCHANGES UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 1035. A 1035 exchange is
a tax-free exchange of a non-qualified life insurance contract, endowment
contract or annuity contract into a non-Qualified annuity contract. The contract
owner(s) must be the same on the old and new contract. Basis from the old
contract carries over to the new contract so long as we receive that information
from the relinquishing company. If basis information is never received, we will
assume that all exchanged funds represent earnings and will allocate no cost
basis to them.

PARTIAL EXCHANGES. The IRS has issued a ruling that permits partial exchanges of
annuity contracts. Under this ruling, if you take a withdrawal from a receiving
or relinquishing annuity contract within 24 months of the partial exchange, then
special aggregation rules apply for purposes of determining the taxable amount
of a distribution. The IRS has issued limited guidance on how to aggregate and
report these distributions. The IRS is expected to provide further guidance; as
a result, it is possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as
taxable could be different. Your Contract may not permit partial exchanges.

TAXATION OF OWNERSHIP CHANGES. If you transfer a non-Qualified Contract without
full and adequate consideration to a person other than your spouse (or to a
former spouse incident to a divorce), you will be taxed on the difference
between the Contract Value and the investment in the Contract at the time of
transfer. Any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or pledge) of the
Contract Value is taxed as a withdrawal of such amount or portion and may also
incur the 10% penalty tax.

AGGREGATION OF ANNUITY CONTRACTS. The Code requires that all non-Qualified
deferred annuity contracts issued by Allstate New York (or its affiliates) to
the same Contract Owner during any calendar year be aggregated and treated as
one annuity contract for purposes of determining the taxable amount of a
distribution.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING

Generally, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 10% from all non-annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out of
withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold the required 10% of the taxable
amount. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using the wage
withholding rates for all annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out
of withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold using married with three
exemptions as the default. If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is
provided, we will automatically withhold using single with zero exemptions as
the default. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien.
Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if covered by an income tax treaty
between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's country of residence if the payee
provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number on a fully completed Form W-8BEN.
A U.S. taxpayer identification number is a social security number or an
individual taxpayer identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS
to non-resident alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social
security number. The U.S. does not have a tax treaty with

                                  29 PROSPECTUS




all countries nor do all tax treaties provide an exclusion or lower withholding
rate for annuities.

TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

The income on tax sheltered annuity (TSA) and IRA investments is tax deferred,
and the income from annuities held by such plans does not receive any additional
tax deferral. You should review the annuity features, including all benefits and
expenses, prior to purchasing an annuity as a TSA or IRA. Tax Qualified
Contracts are contracts purchased as or in connection with:

..    Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs) under Code Section 408(b);

..    Roth IRAs under Code Section 408A;

..    Simplified Employee Pension (SEP IRA) under Code Section 408(k);

..    Savings Incentive Match Plans for Employees (SIMPLE IRA) under Code Section
     408(p);

..    Tax Sheltered Annuities under Code Section 403(b);

..    Corporate and Self Employed Pension and Profit Sharing Plans under Code
     Section 401; and

..    State and Local Government and Tax-Exempt Organization Deferred
     Compensation Plans under Code Section 457.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the retirement plans listed above or to modify the Contract
to conform with tax requirements. If you use the Contract within an employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan, the plan may impose different or additional
conditions or limitations on withdrawals, waiver of charges, death benefits,
Payout Start Dates, income payments, and other Contract features. In addition,
adverse tax consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions
and other conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan
administrator for more information. Allstate New York no longer issues deferred
annuities to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

The tax rules applicable to participants with tax qualified annuities vary
according to the type of contract and the terms and conditions of the
endorsement. Adverse tax consequences may result from certain transactions such
as excess contributions, premature distributions, and, distributions that do not
conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules. Allstate New
York can issue an individual retirement annuity on a rollover or transfer of
proceeds from a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer sponsored retirement plan under
which the decedent's surviving spouse is the beneficiary. Allstate New York does
not offer an individual retirement annuity that can accept a transfer of funds
for any other, non-spousal, beneficiary of a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Please refer to your Endorsement for IRAs or 403(b) plans, if applicable, for
additional information on your death settlement options. In the case of certain
qualified plans, the terms of the Qualified Plan Endorsement and the plans may
govern the right to benefits, regardless of the terms of the Contract.

TAXATION OF WITHDRAWALS FROM AN INDIVIDUALLY OWNED TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACT. If
you make a partial withdrawal under a Tax Qualified Contract other than a Roth
IRA, the portion of the payment that bears the same ratio to the total payment
that the investment in the Contract (i.e., nondeductible IRA contributions)
bears to the Contract Value, is excluded from your income. We do not keep track
of nondeductible contributions, and generally all tax reporting of distributions
from Tax Qualified Contracts other than Roth IRAs will indicate that the
distribution is fully taxable.

"Qualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are not included in gross income.
"Qualified distributions" are any distributions made more than five taxable
years after the taxable year of the first contribution to any Roth IRA and which
are:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made to a beneficiary after the Contract Owner's death,

..    attributable to the Contract Owner being disabled, or

..    made for a first time home purchase (first time home purchases are subject
     to a lifetime limit of $10,000).

"Nonqualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are treated as made from
contributions first and are included in gross income only to the extent that
distributions exceed contributions.

REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS. Generally, Tax Qualified Contracts (excluding
Roth IRAs) require minimum distributions upon reaching age 70 1/2. Failure to
withdraw the required minimum distribution will result in a 50% tax penalty on
the shortfall not withdrawn from the Contract. Not all income plans offered
under the Contract satisfy the requirements for minimum distributions. Because
these distributions are required under the Code and the method of calculation is
complex, please see a competent tax advisor.

THE DEATH BENEFIT AND TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Pursuant to the Code and IRS
regulations, an IRA (e.g., traditional IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA and SIMPLE IRA)
may not invest in life insurance contracts. However, an IRA may provide a death
benefit that equals the greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value.
The Contract offers a death benefit that in certain circumstances may exceed the
greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value. We believe that the
Death Benefits offered by your Contract do not constitute life insurance under
these regulations.

                                  30 PROSPECTUS




It is also possible that certain death benefits that offer enhanced earnings
could be characterized as an incidental death benefit. If the death benefit were
so characterized, this could result in current taxable income to a Contract
Owner. In addition, there are limitations on the amount of incidental death
benefits that may be provided under qualified plans, such as in connection with
a TSA or employer sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the qualified plans listed above.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. A 10%
penalty tax applies to the taxable amount of any premature distribution from a
Tax Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally applies to any distribution
made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2. However, no penalty tax is
incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or total disability,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made after separation from service after age 55 (does not apply to IRAs),

..    made pursuant to an IRS levy,

..    made for certain medical expenses,

..    made to pay for health insurance premiums while unemployed (applies only
     for IRAs),

..    made for qualified higher education expenses (applies only for IRAs), and

..    made for a first time home purchase (up to a $10,000 lifetime limit and
     applies only for IRAs).

During the first 2 years of the individual's participation in a SIMPLE IRA,
distributions that are otherwise subject to the premature distribution penalty,
will be subject to a 25% penalty tax.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. With respect
to Tax Qualified Contracts using substantially equal periodic payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the taxpayer's attaining age 59 1/2 would be subject to
a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax applied. The tax
for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty tax that would have
been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the years in which the
exception was used. A material modification does not include permitted changes
described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a competent tax advisor
prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal periodic payment stream.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Generally, Allstate New York
is required to withhold federal income tax at a rate of 10% from all
non-annuitized distributions that are not considered "eligible rollover
distributions." The customer may elect out of withholding by completing and
signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we will
automatically withhold the required 10% from the taxable amount. In certain
states, if there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also
mandatory. Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 20% on all "eligible rollover distributions" unless you elect to make a
"direct rollover" of such amounts to an IRA or eligible retirement plan.
Eligible rollover distributions generally include all distributions from Tax
Qualified Contracts, including TSAs but excluding IRAs, with the exception of:

..    required minimum distributions, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over a period of at
     least 10 years, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over the life (joint
     lives) of the participant (and beneficiary), or,

..    hardship distributions.

For all annuitized distributions that are not subject to the 20% withholding
requirement, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using
the wage withholding rates. The customer may elect out of withholding by
completing and signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we
will automatically withhold using married with three exemptions as the default.
If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is provided, we will automatically
withhold using single with zero exemptions as the default. In certain states, if
there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien or to
certain other 'foreign persons'. Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if
covered by an income tax treaty between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's
country of residence if the payee provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number
on a fully completed Form W-8BEN. A U.S. taxpayer

                                  31 PROSPECTUS




identification number is a social security number or an individual taxpayer
identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS to non-resident
alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social security number. The
U.S. does not have a tax treaty with all countries nor do all tax treaties
provide an exclusion or lower withholding rate for annuities.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408(b) permits eligible
individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an
Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA). Individual Retirement Annuities are subject
to limitations on the amount that can be contributed and on the time when
distributions may commence. Certain distributions from other types of qualified
retirement plans may be "rolled over" on a tax-deferred basis into an Individual
Retirement Annuity.

ROTH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408A permits eligible
individuals to make nondeductible contributions to an individual retirement
program known as a Roth Individual Retirement Annuity. Roth Individual
Retirement Annuities are subject to limitations on the amount that can be
contributed and on the time when distributions may commence.

Subject to certain limitations, a traditional Individual Retirement Account or
Annuity may be converted or "rolled over" to a Roth Individual Retirement
Annuity. The income portion of a conversion or rollover distribution is taxable
currently, but is exempted from the 10% penalty tax on premature distributions.

ANNUITIES HELD BY INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS (COMMONLY KNOWN AS CUSTODIAL

IRAS). Code Section 408 permits a custodian or trustee of an Individual
Retirement Account to purchase an annuity as an investment of the Individual
Retirement Account. If an annuity is purchased inside of an Individual
Retirement Account, then the Annuitant must be the same person as the beneficial
owner of the Individual Retirement Account.

Generally, the death benefit of an annuity held in an Individual Retirement
Account must be paid upon the death of the Annuitant. However, in most states,
the Contract permits the custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement
Account to continue the Contract in the accumulation phase, with the Annuitant's
surviving spouse as the new Annuitant, if the following conditions are met:

1)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account is the owner
     of the annuity and has the right to the death proceeds otherwise payable
     under the Contract;

2)   The deceased Annuitant was the beneficial owner of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

3)   We receive a complete request for settlement for the death of the
     Annuitant; and

4)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account provides us
     with a signed certification of the following:

(a)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse is the sole beneficiary of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

(b)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse has elected to continue the Individual
     Retirement Account as his or her own Individual Retirement Account; and

(c)  The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account has continued
     the Individual Retirement Account pursuant to the surviving spouse's
     election.

SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION IRA. Code Section 408(k) allows eligible employers
to establish simplified employee pension plans for their employees using
individual retirement annuities. These employers may, within specified limits,
make deductible contributions on behalf of the employees to the individual
retirement annuities. Employers intending to use the Contract in connection with
such plans should seek competent tax advice.

SAVINGS INCENTIVE MATCH PLANS FOR EMPLOYEES (SIMPLE IRA). Code Section 408(p)
allows eligible employers with 100 or fewer employees to establish SIMPLE
retirement plans for their employees using individual retirement annuities. In
general, a SIMPLE IRA consists of a salary deferral program for eligible
employees and matching or nonelective contributions made by employers. Employers
intending to purchase the Contract as a SIMPLE IRA should seek competent tax and
legal advice.

TO DETERMINE IF YOU ARE ELIGIBLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE LISTED IRAS
(TRADITIONAL, ROTH, SEP, OR SIMPLE), PLEASE REFER TO IRS PUBLICATION 590 AND
YOUR COMPETENT TAX ADVISOR.

TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES. Code Section 403(b) provides tax-deferred retirement
savings plans for employees of certain non-profit and educational organizations.
Under Section 403(b), any contract used for a 403(b) plan must provide that
distributions attributable to salary reduction contributions made after
12/31/88, and all earnings on salary reduction contributions, may be made only
on or after the date the employee:

..    attains age 59 1/2,

..    severs employment,

..    dies,

..    becomes disabled, or

..    incurs a hardship (earnings on salary reduction contributions may not be
     distributed on account of hardship).

These limitations do not apply to withdrawals where Allstate New York is
directed to transfer some or all of the Contract Value to another 403(b) plan.
Generally, we do

                                  32 PROSPECTUS




not accept funds in 403(b) contracts that are subject to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

CORPORATE AND SELF-EMPLOYED PENSION AND PROFIT SHARING PLANS.

Section 401(a) of the Code permits corporate employers to establish various
types of tax favored retirement plans for employees. Self-employed individuals
may establish tax favored retirement plans for themselves and their employees
(commonly referred to as "H.R.10" or "Keogh"). Such retirement plans may permit
the purchase of annuity contracts. Allstate New York no longer issues annuity
contracts to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

There are two owner types for contracts intended to qualify under Section
401(a): a qualified plan fiduciary or an annuitant owner.

..    A qualified plan fiduciary exists when a qualified plan trust that is
     intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code is the owner. The
     qualified plan trust must have its own tax identification number and a
     named trustee acting as a fiduciary on behalf of the plan. The annuitant
     should be the person for whose benefit the contract was purchased.

..    An annuitant owner exists when the tax identification number of the owner
     and annuitant are the same, or the annuity contract is not owner by a
     qualified plan trust. The annuitant should be the person for whose benefit
     the contract was purchased.

If a qualified plan fiduciary is the owner of the contract, the qualified plan
must be the beneficiary so that death benefits from the annuity are distributed
in accordance with the terms of the qualified plan. Annuitant owned contracts
require that the beneficiary be the annuitant's spouse (if applicable), which is
consistent with the required IRS language for qualified plans under Section
401(a). A completed Annuitant Owned Qualified Plan Designation of Beneficiary
form is required in order to change the beneficiary of an annuitant owned
Qualified Plan contract.

STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION DEFERRED COMPENSATION

PLANS. Section 457 of the Code permits employees of state and local governments
and tax-exempt organizations to defer a portion of their compensation without
paying current taxes. The employees must be participants in an eligible deferred
compensation plan. In eligible governmental plans, all assets and income must be
held in a trust/ custodial account/annuity contract for the exclusive benefit of
the participants and their beneficiaries. To the extent the Contracts are used
in connection with a non-governmental eligible plan, employees are considered
general creditors of the employer and the employer as owner of the Contract has
the sole right to the proceeds of the Contract. Under eligible 457 plans,
contributions made for the benefit of the employees will not be includible in
the employees' gross income until distributed from the plan. Allstate New York
no longer issues annuity contracts to employer sponsored qualified retirement
plans. Contracts that have been previously sold to State and Local government
and Tax-Exempt organization Deferred Compensation Plans will be administered
consistent with the rules for contracts intended to qualify under Section
401(a).

APPENDIX B MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

The Market Value Adjustment is based on the following:

I = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the applicable Guarantee Period
for the week preceding the establishment of the Guarantee Period.

N = the number of whole and partial years from the date we receive the
withdrawal, transfer, or death benefit request, or from the Payout Start Date,
to the end of the Guarantee Period.

J = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the Guarantee Period for the week
preceding the receipt of the withdrawal, transfer, death benefit, or income
payment request. If a note for a maturity of length N is not available, a
weighted average will be used. If N is one year or less, J will be the 1-year
Treasury Rate.

"Treasury Rate" means the U.S. Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported
in Federal Reserve Board Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment factor is determined from the following formula:

..9 X (I - J) X N

To determine the Market Value Adjustment, we will multiply the Market Value
Adjustment factor by the amount transferred (in excess of the Free Withdrawal
Amount) paid as a death benefit, or applied to an Income Plan, from a Guarantee
Period at any time other than during the 30 day period after such Guarantee
Period expires.

                                 but each payment must be at least $500 ($100
                                 for automatic purchase payments to the variable

DEATH                            BENEFITS If you or the Annuitant (if the
                                 Contract is owned by a non-living person) die
                                 before the PAYOUT START DATE, we will pay the
                                 death benefit described in the Contract. We
                                 also offer an Enhanced Death Benefit Option.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TRANSFERS                        Before the Payout Start Date, you may transfer
                                 your Contract value ("CONTRACT VALUE") among
                                 the investment alternatives, with certain
                                 restrictions.

                                 We do not currently impose a fee upon
                                 transfers. However, we reserve the right to
                                 charge $10 per transfer after the 12th transfer
                                 in each "CONTRACT YEAR," which we measure from
                                 the date we issue your contract or a Contract
                                 anniversary ("CONTRACT ANNIVERSARY").

WITHDRAWALS                      You may withdraw some or all of your Contract
                                 Value at any time during the Accumulation
                                 Phase. Full or partial withdrawals are
                                 available under limited circumstances on or
                                 after the Payout Start Date.

                                 In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a
                                 time ($1,000 for withdrawals made during the
                                 Payout Phase.) Withdrawals in the Payout Phase
                                 are only available if the Payout Option is a
                                 Variable Income Payment using Guaranteed
                                 Payments for a Specified Period. Withdrawals
                                 taken prior to annuitization (referred to in
                                 this prospectus as the Payout Phase) are
                                 generally considered to come from the earnings
                                 in the Contract first. If the Contract is
                                 tax-qualified, generally all withdrawals are
                                 treated as distributions of earnings.

                                 Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
                                 income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
                                 be subject to an additional 10% federal tax
                                 penalty. A withdrawal charge and MARKET VALUE
                                 ADJUSTMENT also may apply.

HOW THE CONTRACT WORKS

The Contract basically works in two ways.

First, the Contract can help you (we assume you are the CONTRACT OWNER) save for
retirement because you can invest in up to 21 investment alternatives and
generally pay no federal income taxes on any earnings until you withdraw them.
You do this during what we call the "ACCUMULATION PHASE" of the Contract. The
Accumulation Phase begins on the date we issue your Contract (we call that date
the "ISSUE DATE") and continues until the Payout Start Date, which is the date
we apply your money to provide income payments. During the Accumulation Phase,
you may allocate your purchase payments to any combination of the Variable
Sub-Accounts and/or Fixed Account Options. If you invest in the Fixed Account
Options, you will earn a fixed rate of interest that we declare periodically. If
you invest in any of the Variable Sub-Accounts, your investment return will vary
up or down depending on the performance of the corresponding Funds.

Second, the Contract can help you plan for retirement because you can use it to
receive retirement income for life and/ or for a pre-set number of years, by
selecting one of the income payment options (we call these "INCOME PLANS")
described on page 20. You receive income payments during what we call the
"PAYOUT PHASE" of the Contract, which begins on the Payout Start Date and
continues until we make the last payment required by the Income Plan you select.
During the Payout Phase, if you select a fixed income payment option, we
guarantee the amount of your payments, which will remain fixed. If you select a
variable income payment option, based on one or more of the Variable
Sub-Accounts, the amount of your payments will vary up or down depending on the
performance of the corresponding Funds. The amount of money you accumulate under
your Contract during the Accumulation Phase and apply to an Income Plan will
determine the amount of your income payments during the Payout Phase.

The timeline below illustrates how you might use your Contract.

As the Contract owner, you exercise all of the rights and privileges provided by
the Contract. If you die, any surviving Contract owner, or if there is none, the
BENEFICIARY will exercise the rights and privileges provided by the Contract.
See "The Contract." In addition, if you die before the Payout Start Date, we
will pay a death benefit to any surviving Contract owner or, if none, to your
Beneficiary. See "Death Benefits."

EXAMPLE 1

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the
Contracts with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These
costs include Contract owner transaction expenses, Contract fees, Variable
Account annual expenses, and Fund fees and expenses. The example below shows the
dollar amount of expenses that you would bear directly or indirectly if you:

..    invested $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated,

..    earned a 5% annual return on your investment, and

..    surrendered your Contract, or you began receiving income payments for a
     specified period of less than 120 months, at the end of each time period,
     and

..    elected the Enhanced Death Benefit Option.

The first line of the example assumes that the maximum fees and expenses of any
of the Funds are charged. The second line of the example assumes that the
minimum fees and expenses of any of the Funds are charged. Your actual expenses
may be higher or lower than those shown below.

THE EXAMPLE DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY TAXES OR TAX PENALTIES YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO
PAY IF YOU SURRENDER YOUR CONTRACT.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To measure the value of your investment in the Variable Sub-Accounts during the
Accumulation Phase, we use a unit of measure we call the "ACCUMULATION UNIT."
Each Variable Sub-Account has a separate value for its Accumulation Units we
call "ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE." Accumulation Unit Value is analogous to, but not
the same as, the share price of a mutual fund.

Attached as Appendix A to this prospectus are tables showing the Accumulation
Unit Values of each Variable Sub-Account since the date we first offered the
Contracts. To obtain a fuller picture of each Variable Sub-Account's finances,
please refer to the Variable Account's financial statements contained in the
Statement of Additional Information. The financial statements of Allstate New
York also appear in the Statement of Additional Information.

THE CONTRACT

CONTRACT OWNER

The AIM Lifetime Plus(SM) II Variable Annuity is a contract between you, the
Contract Owner, and Allstate New York, a life insurance company. As the Contract
owner, you may exercise all of the rights and privileges provided to you by the
Contract. That means it is up to you to select or change (to the extent
permitted):

..    the investment alternatives during the Accumulation and Payout Phases,

..    the amount and timing of your purchase payments and withdrawals,

..    the programs you want to use to invest or withdraw money,

..    the income payment plan you want to use to receive retirement income,

..    the Annuitant (either yourself or someone else) on whose life the income
     payments will be based,

..    the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries who will receive the benefits that the
     Contract provides when the last surviving Contract Owner or Annuitant dies,
     and

..    any other rights that the Contract provides.

If you die, any surviving Contract owner or, if none, the Beneficiary may
exercise the rights and privileges provided to them by the Contract.

The Contract cannot be jointly owned by both a non-living person and a living
person. If the Contract Owner is a Grantor Trust, the Contract Owner will be
considered a non-living person for purposes of this section and the Death
Benefit section. The maximum age of the oldest Contract owner cannot exceed age
90 as of the date we receive the completed application to purchase the Contract.

Changing ownership of this Contract may cause adverse tax consequences and may
not be allowed under qualified plans. Please consult with a competent tax
advisor prior to making a request for a change of Contract Owner.

The Contract can also be purchased as an IRA or TSA (also known as a 403(b)).
The endorsements required to qualify these annuities under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, ("Code") may limit or modify your rights and
privileges under the Contract.

ANNUITANT

The Annuitant is the individual whose life determines the amount and duration of
income payments (other than under Income Plans with guaranteed payments for a
specified period). You initially designate an Annuitant in your application. The
maximum age of the Annuitant cannot exceed age 90 as of the date we receive the
completed application to purchase the Contract. If the Contract Owner is a
living person you may change the Annuitant prior to the Payout Start Date. In
our discretion, we may permit you to designate a joint Annuitant, who is a
second person on whose life income payments depend, on the Payout Start Date.

If the Annuitant dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the new Annuitant will be:

..    the youngest Contract Owner, if living, otherwise

..    the youngest Beneficiary.

BENEFICIARY

The Beneficiary is the person who may elect to receive the Death Benefit or
become the new Contract Owner, subject to the Death of Owner provision, if the
sole surviving Contract Owner dies before the Payout Start Date (See section
titled "Death Benefits" for details.) If the sole surviving Contract owner dies
after the Payout Start Date, the Beneficiary will receive any guaranteed income
payments scheduled to continue.

You may name one or more Beneficiaries when you apply for a Contract. You may
change or add Beneficiaries at any time by writing to us, unless you have
designated an irrevocable Beneficiary. We will provide a change of Beneficiary
form to be signed and filed with us. Any change will be effective at the time
you sign the written notice, whether or not the Annuitant is living when we
receive the notice. Until we receive your written notice to change a
Beneficiary, we are entitled to rely on the most recent Beneficiary information
in our files. We will not be liable as to any payment or settlement made prior
to receiving the written notice. Accordingly, if you wish to

                                  9 PROSPECTUS




change your Beneficiary, you should deliver your written notice to us promptly.

If you do not name a Beneficiary or if the named Beneficiary is no longer living
and there are no other surviving Beneficiaries, the new Beneficiary will be:

..    your spouse or, if he or she is no longer alive,

..    your surviving children equally, or if you have no surviving children,

..    your estate.

If more than one Beneficiary survives you, we will divide the death benefit
among your Beneficiaries according to your most recent written instructions. If
you have not given us written instructions, we will pay the death benefit in
equal amounts to the surviving Beneficiaries

MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT

Only an Allstate New York officer may approve a change in or waive any provision
of the Contract. Any change or waiver must be in writing. None of our agents has
the authority to change or waive the provisions of the Contract. We may not
change the terms of the Contract without your consent, except to conform the
Contract to applicable law or changes in the law. If a provision of the Contract
is inconsistent with state law, we will follow state law.

ASSIGNMENT

No Owner has the right to assign any interest in a Contract as collateral or
security for a loan. However, you may assign periodic income payments under the
Contract prior to the Payout Start Date. No Beneficiary may assign benefits
under the Contract until they are due. We will not be bound by any assignment
until the assignor signs it and files it with us. We are not responsible for the
validity of any assignment. Federal law prohibits or restricts the assignment of
benefits under many types of retirement plans and the terms of such plans may
themselves contain restrictions on assignments. An assignment may also result in
taxes or tax penalties. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY BEFORE TRYING TO
ASSIGN YOUR CONTRACT.

PURCHASES

MINIMUM PURCHASE PAYMENTS

Your initial Purchase Payment must be at least $5,000 ($2,000 for a Qualified
Contract). All subsequent Purchase Payments must be $500 or more. The maximum
Purchase Payment is $2,000,000 without prior approval. We reserve the right to
change the minimum Purchase Payment and to change the maximum Purchase Payment.
You may make Purchase Payments of at least $500 at any time prior to the Payout
Start Date. We also reserve the right to reject any application.

AUTOMATIC ADDITIONS PROGRAM

You may make subsequent purchase payments of at least $100 ($500 for allocation
to the Fixed Account Options) by automatically transferring amounts from your
bank account. Please consult with your sales representative for detailed
information.

ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS

At the time you apply for a Contract, you must decide how to allocate your
purchase payments among the investment alternatives. The allocation you specify
on your application will be effective immediately. All allocations must be in
whole percents that total 100% or in whole dollars. You can change your
allocations by notifying us in writing. We reserve the right to limit the
availability of the investment alternatives.

We will allocate your purchase payments to the investment alternatives according
to your most recent instructions on file with us. Unless you notify us in
writing otherwise, we will allocate subsequent purchase payments according to
the allocation for the previous purchase payment. We will effect any change in
allocation instructions at the time we receive written notice of the change in
good order.

We will credit the initial purchase payment that accompanies your completed
application to your Contract within 2 business days after we receive the payment
at our servicing center. If your application is incomplete, we will ask you to
complete your application within 5 business days. If you do so, we will credit
your initial purchase payment to your Contract within that 5 business day
period. If you do not, we will return your purchase payment at the end of the 5
business day period unless you expressly allow us to hold it until you complete
the application. We will credit subsequent purchase payments to the Contract at
the close of the business day on which we receive the purchase payment at our
service center located in Vernon Hills, Illinois (mailing address: 2940 S. 84TH
STREET, LINCOLN, NE 68506-4142).

We are open for business each day Monday through Friday that the New York Stock
Exchange is open for business. We also refer to these days as "VALUATION DATES."
Our business day closes when the New York Stock Exchange closes, usually 4:00
p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time). If we receive your purchase payment
after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date, we
will credit your purchase payment using the Accumulation Unit Values computed on
the next Valuation Date.

RIGHT TO CANCEL

You may cancel the Contract by returning it to us within the Cancellation
Period, which is the 10 day period after you receive the Contract (60 days if
you are exchanging another contract for the Contract described in this
prospectus.) You may return it by delivering it or mailing

                                  10 PROSPECTUS




it to us. If you exercise this "RIGHT TO CANCEL," the Contract terminates and we
will pay you the full amount of your purchase payments allocated to the Fixed
Account Options. Upon cancellation, as permitted by federal or state law, we
will return your purchase payments allocated to the Variable Account after an
adjustment to reflect investment gain or loss and applicable charges that
occurred from the date of allocation through the date of cancellation. If your
Contract is qualified under ode Section 408(b), we will refund the greater of
any purchase payment or the Contract Value.

CONTRACT VALUE

On the issue date, the Contract Value is equal to the initial purchase payment.
Thereafter, your Contract Value at any time during the Accumulation Phase is
equal to the sum of the value of your Accumulation Units in the Variable
Sub-Accounts you have selected, plus the value of your investment in the Fixed
Account Options.

ACCUMULATION UNITS

To determine the number of Accumulation Units of each Variable Sub-Account to
allocate to your Contract, we divide (i) the amount of the purchase payment or
transfer you have allocated to a Variable Sub-Account by (ii) the Accumulation
Unit Value of that Variable Sub-Account next computed after we receive your
payment or transfer. For example, if we receive a $10,000 purchase payment
allocated to a Variable Sub-Account when the Accumulation Unit Value for the
Sub-Account is $10, we would credit 1,000 Accumulation Units of that Variable
Sub-Account to your Contract. Withdrawals and transfers from a Variable
Sub-Account would, of course, reduce the number of Accumulation Units of that
Sub-Account allocated to your Contract.

ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE

As a general matter, the Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account
will rise or fall to reflect:

..    changes in the share price of the Fund in which the Variable Sub-Account
     invests, and

..    the deduction of amounts reflecting the mortality and expense risk charge,
     administrative expense charge, and any provision for taxes that have
     accrued since we last calculated the Accumulation Unit Value.

We determine contract maintenance charges, withdrawal charges, and transfer fees
(currently waived) separately for each Contract. They do not affect Accumulation
Unit Value. Instead, we obtain payment of those charges and fees by redeeming
Accumulation Units. For details on how we calculate Accumulation Unit Value,

We determine a separate Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account on

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNTS

You may allocate your purchase payments to up to 18 Variable Sub-Accounts. Each
Variable Sub-Account invests in the shares of a corresponding Fund. Each Fund
has its own investment objective(s) and policies. We briefly describe the Funds
below.

For more complete information about each Fund, including expenses and risks
associated with the Fund, please refer to the accompanying prospectus for the
Fund. You should carefully review the Fund prospectuses before allocating
amounts to the Variable Sub-Accounts. A I M Advisors, Inc. serves as the
investment advisor to each Fund.

ARE NOT INSURED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, THE FEDERAL
RESERVE BOARD OR ANY OTHER AGENCY.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE FIXED ACCOUNT OPTIONS

You may allocate all or a portion of your purchase payments to the Fixed
Account. You may choose from among 3 Fixed Account Options, including 2 DOLLAR
COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTIONS ("DOLLAR COST AVERAGING OPTION"), and the
option to invest in one or more GUARANTEE PERIODS. The Fixed Account Options may
not be available in all states. Please consult with your sales representative
for current information. The Fixed Account supports our insurance and annuity
obligations. The Fixed Account consists of our general assets other than those
in segregated asset accounts. We have sole discretion to invest the assets of
the Fixed Account, subject to applicable law. Any money you allocate to a Fixed
Account Option does not entitle you to share in the investment experience of the
Fixed Account.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING OPTION. You may establish a Dollar Cost Averaging Program,
as described on page 17, by allocating purchase payments to the Dollar Cost
Averaging Option either for 6 months (the "6 Month Dollar Cost Averaging
Option") or for 12 months (the "12 Month Dollar Cost Averaging Option"). Your
purchase payments that you allocate to the Dollar Cost Averaging Option will
earn interest for the period you select at the current rate in effect at the
time of allocation. Rates may differ from those available for the Guarantee
Periods described below.

We will credit interest daily at a rate that will compound over the 6 or 12
month period to the annual interest rate we guaranteed at the time of
allocation. You must transfer all of your money out of the 6 or 12 Month Dollar
Cost Averaging Options to other investment alternatives in equal monthly
installments beginning within 30 days of allocation. The number of monthly
installments must be no more than 6 for the 6 Month Dollar Cost Averaging
Option, and no more than 12 for the 12 Month Dollar Cost Averaging Option.

If we do not receive allocation instructions from you within one month of the
date of the payment, the payment plus associated interest will be transferred to
the Money Market Variable Sub-Account in equal monthly installments using the
longest transfer period being offered at the time the Purchase Payment is made.

At the end of the applicable transfer period, any nominal amounts remaining in
the Dollar Cost Averaging Option will be allocated to the Money Market Variable
Sub-Account.

You may not transfer funds from other investment alternatives to the Dollar Cost
Averaging Option.

Transfers out of the Dollar Cost Averaging Option do not count towards the 12
transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee.

We may declare different interest rates for different amounts allocated to the
Dollar Cost Averaging Option depending on when they were allocated. For current
interest rate information, please contact your Financial Advisor or our Customer
Service unit at 1-800-692-4682.

GUARANTEE PERIODS

Each payment or transfer allocated to a Guarantee Period earns interest at a
specified rate that we guarantee for a period of years. Guarantee Periods may
range from 1 to 10 years. In the future we may offer Guarantee Periods of
different lengths or stop offering some Guarantee Periods. You select one or
more Guarantee Periods for each purchase payment or transfer. If you do not
select the Guarantee Period for a purchase payment or transfer, we will assign
the shortest Guarantee Period available under the Contract for such payment or
transfer. We reserve the right to limit the number of additional purchase
payments that you may allocate to this Option. Please consult with your sales
representative for more information. Each Purchase Payment or transfer allocated
to a Guarantee Period must be at least $500.

INTEREST RATES. We will tell you what interest rates and Guarantee Periods we
are offering at a particular time. We may declare different interest rates for
Guarantee Periods of the same length that begin at different times. We will not
change the interest rate that we credit to a particular allocation until the end
of the relevant Guarantee Period.

We have no specific formula for determining the rate of interest that we will
declare initially or in the future. We will set those interest rates based on
investment returns available at the time of the determination. In addition, we
may consider various other factors in determining interest rates including
regulatory and tax requirements, our sales commission and administrative
expenses, general economic trends, and competitive factors. WE DETERMINE THE
INTEREST RATES TO BE DECLARED IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION. WE CAN NEITHER PREDICT NOR
GUARANTEE WHAT THOSE RATES WILL BE IN THE FUTURE. For current interest rate
information, please contact your sales representative or Allstate New York at
1-800-692-4682. The interest rates we credit for the Dollar Cost Averaging
Option will never be less than 3% annually.

HOW WE CREDIT INTEREST. We will credit interest daily to each amount allocated
to a Guarantee Period at a rate that compounds to the effective annual interest
rate that we declared at the beginning of the applicable Guarantee Period.

TOTAL INTEREST CREDITED DURING GUARANTEE PERIOD = $2,461.82 ($12,461.82-$10,000)

This example assumes no withdrawals during the entire 5 year Guarantee Period.
If you were to make a withdrawal, you may be required to pay a withdrawal
charge. In addition, the amount withdrawn may be increased or decreased by a
Market Value Adjustment that reflects changes in interest rates since the time
you invested the amount withdrawn. The hypothetical interest rate is for
illustrative purposes only and is not intended to predict current or future
interest rates to be declared under the Contract. Actual interest rates declared
for any given Guarantee Period may be more or less than shown above but will
never be less than the guaranteed minimum rate stated in the Contract, if any.

RENEWALS. At least 15 but not more than 45 days prior to the end of each
Guarantee Period, we will mail you a notice asking you what to do with your
money, including the accrued interest. During the 30-day period after the end of
the Guarantee Period, you may:

1)   Take no action. We will automatically apply your money to a new Guarantee
     Period of the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will
     begin on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. The new interest rate
     will be our then current declared rate for a Guarantee Period of that
     length; or

2)   Instruct us to apply your money to one or more new Guarantee Periods of
     your choice. The new Guarantee Period(s) will begin on the day the previous
     Guarantee Period ends. The new interest rate will be our then current
     declared rate for those Guarantee Periods; or

3)   Instruct us to transfer all or a portion of your money to one or more
     Variable Sub-Accounts. We will effect the transfer on the day we receive
     your instructions. We will not adjust the amount transferred to include a
     Market Value Adjustment; or

4)   Withdraw all or a portion of your money. You may be required to pay a
     withdrawal charge, but we will not adjust the amount withdrawn to include a
     Market Value Adjustment. You may also be required to pay premium taxes and
     withholding (if applicable). The amount withdrawn will be deemed to have
     been withdrawn on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. Unless you
     specify otherwise, amounts not withdrawn will be applied to a new Guarantee
     Period of the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will
     begin on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT. All withdrawals in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal
Amount, transfers, and amounts applied to an Income Plan from a Guarantee
Period, other than those taken or applied during the 30 day period after such
Guarantee Period expires, are subject to a Market Value Adjustment. A Market
Value Adjustment also will apply when you apply amounts currently invested in a
Guarantee Period to an Income Plan (unless applied during the 30 day period
after such Guarantee Period expires). A Market Value Adjustment may apply in the
calculation of the Settlement Value described below in the "Death Benefit
Amount" section below. We will not apply a Market Value Adjustment to a transfer
you make as part of a Dollar Cost Averaging Program. We also will not apply a
Market Value Adjustment to a withdrawal you make:

                                  14 PROSPECTUS




..    within the Preferred Withdrawal Amount as described on page 18, or

..    to satisfy the IRS minimum distribution rules for the Contract.

We apply the Market Value Adjustment to reflect changes in interest rates from
the time you first allocate money to a Guarantee Period to the time it is
removed from that Guarantee Period. We calculate the Market Value Adjustment by
comparing the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the Guarantee Period at its
inception to the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period when you remove your money. "TREASURY RATE" means the U.S.
Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported in Federal Reserve Board
Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment may be positive or negative, depending on changes in
interest rates. As such, you bear the investment risk associated with changes in
interest rates. If interest rates increase significantly, the Market Value
Adjustment and any withdrawal charge, premium taxes, and income tax withholding
(if applicable) could reduce the amount you receive upon full withdrawal of your
Contract Value to an amount that is less than the purchase payment plus interest
at the minimum guaranteed interest rate under the Contract. Death benefits will
not be subject to a negative Market Value Adjustment.

Generally, if the Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee
Period is higher than the applicable current Treasury Rate for a period equal to
the time remaining in the Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment
will result in a higher amount payable to you, transferred, or applied to an
Income Plan. Conversely, if the Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to
a Guarantee Period is lower than the applicable Treasury Rate for a period equal
to the time remaining in the Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment
will result in a lower amount payable to you, transferred, or applied to an
Income Plan.

For example, assume that you purchase a Contract and you select an initial
Guarantee Period of 5 years and the 5 year Treasury Rate for that duration is
4.50%. Assume that at the end of 3 years, you make a partial withdrawal. If, at
that later time, the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.20%, then the Market
Value Adjustment will be positive, which will result in an increase in the
amount payable to you. Conversely, if the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.80%,
then the Market Value Adjustment will be negative, which will result in a
decrease in the amount payable to you.

The formula for calculating Market Value Adjustments is set forth in Appendix A
to this prospectus, which also contains additional examples of the application
of the Market Value Adjustment.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: TRANSFERS

TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE

During the Accumulation Phase, you may transfer Contract Value among the
investment alternatives. You may not transfer Contract Value into the Dollar
Cost Averaging Option. You may request transfers in writing on a form that we
provided or by telephone according to the procedure described below. The minimum
amount that you may transfer into a Guarantee Period is $500. We currently do
not assess, but reserve the right to assess, a $10 charge on each transfer in
excess of 12 per Contract Year. We treat transfers to or from more than one Fund
on the same day as one transfer. Transfers you make as part of a Dollar Cost
Averaging Program or Automatic Fund Rebalancing Program do not count against the
12 free transfers per Contract Year.

We will process transfer requests that we receive before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit Values for that Date. We will
process requests completed after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on any Valuation Date
using the Accumulation Unit Values for the next Valuation Date. The Contract
permits us to defer transfers from the Fixed Account for up to 6 months from the
date we receive your request. If we decide to postpone transfers from the Fixed
Account Options for 10 days or more, we will pay interest as required by
applicable law. Any interest would be payable from the date we receive the
transfer request to the date we make the transfer.

If you transfer an amount from a Guarantee Period other than during the 30 day
period after such Guarantee Period expires, we will increase or decrease the
amount by a Market Value Adjustment.

We reserve the right to waive any transfer restrictions.

TRANSFERS DURING THE PAYOUT PHASE

During the Payout Phase, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts
to change the relative weighting of the Variable Sub-Accounts on which your
variable income payments will be based. In addition, you will have a limited
ability to make transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the
proportion of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may
not, however, convert any portion of your right to receive fixed income payments
into variable income payments.

You may not make any transfers for the first 6 months after the Payout Start
Date. Thereafter, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts or make
transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the proportion of your
income payments consisting of fixed income payments. Your transfers must be at
least 6 months apart.

                                  15 PROSPECTUS




TELEPHONE TRANSFERS

You may make transfers by telephone by calling 1-800-692-4682, if you first send
us a completed authorization form. The cut off time for telephone transfer
requests is 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event that the New York Stock
Exchange closes early, i.e., before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, or in the event that
the Exchange closes early for a period of time but then reopens for trading on
the same day, we will process telephone transfer requests as of the close of the
Exchange on that particular day. We will not accept telephone requests received
at any telephone number other than the number that appears in this paragraph or
received after the close of trading on the Exchange.

We may suspend, modify or terminate the telephone transfer privilege at any time
without notice.

We use procedures that we believe provide reasonable assurance that the
telephone transfers are genuine. For example, we tape telephone conversations
with persons purporting to authorize transfers and request identifying
information. Accordingly, we disclaim any liability for losses resulting from
allegedly unauthorized telephone transfers. However, if we do not take
reasonable steps to help ensure that a telephone authorization is valid, we may
be liable for such losses.

MARKET TIMING & EXCESSIVE TRADING

The Contracts are intended for long-term investment. Market timing and excessive
trading can potentially dilute the value of Variable Sub-Accounts and can
disrupt management of a Fund and raise its expenses, which can impair Fund
performance and adversely affect your Contract Value. Our policy is not to
accept knowingly any money intended for the purpose of market timing or
excessive trading. Accordingly, you should not invest in the Contract if your
purpose is to engage in market timing or excessive trading, and you should
refrain from such practices if you currently own a Contract.

We seek to detect market timing or excessive trading activity by reviewing
trading activities. Funds also may report suspected market-timing or excessive
trading activity to us. If, in our judgment, we determine that the transfers are
part of a market timing strategy or are otherwise harmful to the underlying
Fund, we will impose the trading limitations as described below under "Trading
Limitations." Because there is no universally accepted definition of what
constitutes market timing or excessive trading, we will use our reasonable
judgment based on all of the circumstances.

While we seek to deter market timing and excessive trading in Variable
Sub-Accounts, because our procedures involve the exercise of reasonable
judgment, we may not identify or prevent some market timing or excessive
trading. Moreover, imposition of trading limitations is triggered by the
detection of market timing or excessive trading activity, and the trading
limitations are not applied prior to detection of such trading activity.
Therefore, our policies and procedures do not prevent such trading activity
before it is detected. As a result, some investors may be able to engage in
market timing and excessive trading, while others are prohibited, and the Fund
may experience the adverse effects of market timing and excessive trading
described above.

TRADING LIMITATIONS

We reserve the right to limit transfers among the investment alternatives in any
Contract Year, or to refuse any transfer request, if:

..    we believe, in our sole discretion, that certain trading practices, such as
     excessive trading, by, or on behalf of, one or more Contract Owners, or a
     specific transfer request or group of transfer requests, may have a
     detrimental effect on the Accumulation Unit Values of any Variable
     Sub-Account or on the share prices of the corresponding Fund or otherwise
     would be to the disadvantage of other Contract Owners; or

..    we are informed by one or more of the Funds that they intend to restrict
     the purchase, exchange, or redemption of Fund shares because of excessive
     trading or because they believe that a specific transfer or group of
     transfers would have a detrimental effect on the prices of Fund shares.

In making the determination that trading activity constitutes market timing or
excessive trading, we will consider, among other things:

..    the total dollar amount being transferred, both in the aggregate and in the
     transfer request;

..    the number of transfers you make over a period of time and/or the period of
     time between transfers (note: one set of transfers to and from a Variable
     Sub-Account in a short period of time can constitute market timing);

..    whether your transfers follow a pattern that appears designed to take
     advantage of short term market fluctuations, particularly within certain
     Variable Sub-Account underlying Funds that we have identified as being
     susceptible to market timing activities;

..    whether the manager of the underlying Fund has indicated that the transfers
     interfere with Fund management or otherwise adversely impact the Fund; and

..    the investment objectives and/or size of the Variable Sub-Account
     underlying Fund.

We seek to apply these trading limitations uniformly. However, because these
determinations involve the exercise of discretion, it is possible that we may
not detect some market timing or excessive trading activity. As a result, it is
possible that some investors may be able to engage in market timing or excessive
trading activity, while others are prohibited, and the Fund may experience the
adverse effects of market timing and excessive trading described above.

                                  16 PROSPECTUS




If we determine that a Contract Owner has engaged in market timing or excessive
trading activity, we will restrict that Contract Owner from making future
additions or transfers into the impacted Variable Sub-Account(s). If we
determine that a Contract Owner has engaged in a pattern of market timing or
excessive trading activity involving multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, we will
also require that all future transfer requests be submitted through regular U.S.
mail thereby refusing to accept transfer requests via telephone, facsimile,
Internet, or overnight delivery.

In our sole discretion, we may revise our Trading Limitations at any time as
necessary to better deter or minimize market timing and excessive trading or to
comply with regulatory requirements.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM

Through the Dollar Cost Averaging Program, you may automatically transfer a set
amount at regular intervals during the Accumulation Phase from any Variable
Sub-Account, the Dollar Cost Averaging Option, or interest credited from the 3,
5, 7 or 10 year Guarantee Periods, to any Variable Sub-Account. The interval
between transfers may be monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually.
Transfers made through dollar cost averaging must be $50 or more. You may not
use dollar cost averaging to transfer amounts into the Dollar Cost Averaging
Option.

We will not charge a transfer fee for transfers made under this Program, nor
will such transfers count against the 12 transfers you can make each Contract
Year without paying a transfer fee. In addition, we will not apply the Market
Value Adjustment to these transfers.

The theory of dollar cost averaging is that if purchases of equal dollar amounts
are made at fluctuating prices, the aggregate average cost per unit will be less
than the average of the unit prices on the same purchase dates. However,
participation in this program does not assure you of a greater profit from your
purchases under the Program nor will it prevent or necessarily reduce losses in
a declining market.

Call or write us for instructions on how to enroll.

AUTOMATIC FUND REBALANCING PROGRAM

Once you have allocated your money among the Variable Sub-Accounts, the
performance of each Sub-Account may cause a shift in the percentage you
allocated to each Sub-Account. If you select our Automatic Fund Rebalancing
Program, we will automatically rebalance the Contract Value in each Variable
Sub-Account and return it to the desired percentage allocations. Money you
allocate to the Fixed Account Options will not be included in the rebalancing.

We will rebalance your account each quarter according to your instructions. We
will transfer amounts among the Variable Sub-Accounts to achieve the percentage
allocations you specify. You can change your allocations at any time by
contacting us in writing or by telephone. The new allocation will be effective
with the first rebalancing that occurs after we receive your request. We are not
responsible for rebalancing that occurs prior to receipt of your request.

Example:

Assume that you want your initial purchase payment split among 2 Variable
Sub-Accounts. You want 40% to be in the AIM V.I. Diversified Income Variable
Sub-Account and 60% to be in the AIM V.I. Growth Variable Sub-Account. Over the
next 2 months the bond market does very well while the stock market performs
poorly. At the end of the first quarter, the AIM V.I. Diversified Income
Variable Sub-Account now represents 50% of your holdings because of its increase
in value. If you choose to have your holdings rebalanced quarterly, on the first
day of the next quarter we would sell some of your units in the AIM V.I.
Diversified Income Variable Sub-Account and use the money to buy more units in
the AIM V.I. Growth Variable Sub-Account so that the percentage allocations
would again be 40% and 60% respectively.

The Automatic Fund Rebalancing Program is available only during the Accumulation
Phase. The transfers made under the Program do not count towards the 12
transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee, and are not subject to a
transfer fee.

Fund rebalancing is consistent with maintaining your allocation of investments
among market segments, although it is accomplished by reducing your Contract
Value allocated to the better performing segments.

EXPENSES

As a Contract owner, you will bear, directly or indirectly, the charges and
expenses described below.

CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE

During the Accumulation Phase, on each Contract Anniversary, we will deduct a
$35 contract maintenance charge from your Contract Value invested in each
Variable Sub-Account in proportion to the amount invested. We also will deduct a
full contract maintenance charge if you withdraw your entire Contract Value,
unless your Contract qualifies for a waiver, described below. During the Payout
Phase, we will deduct the charge proportionately from each income payment.

The charge is for the cost of maintaining each Contract and the Variable
Account. Maintenance costs include expenses we incur in billing and collecting
purchase payments; keeping records; processing death claims, cash withdrawals,
and policy changes; proxy statements; calculating Accumulation Unit Values and
income payments; and issuing reports to Contract owners and regulatory agencies.
We cannot increase the charge. We will waive this charge if:

.. total purchase payments equal $50,000 or more, or

..    all money is allocated to the Fixed Account Options, as of the Contract
     Anniversary.

After the Payout Start Date, we will waive this charge if:

..    as of the Payout Start Date, the Contract Value is $50,000 or more, or

..    all income payments are fixed amount income payments.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE

We deduct a mortality and expense risk charge daily at an annual rate of 1.00%
of the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts
(1.20% if you select the Enhanced Death Benefit Option). The mortality and
expense risk charge is for all the insurance benefits available with your
Contract (including our guarantee of annuity rates and the death benefits), for
certain expenses of the Contract, and for assuming the risk (expense risk) that
the current charges will not be sufficient in the future to cover the cost of
administering the Contract. If the charges under the Contract are not
sufficient, then we will bear the loss. We charge an additional .20% for the
Enhanced Death Benefit Option to compensate us for the additional risk that we
accept by providing the rider.

We guarantee the mortality and expense risk charge and we cannot increase it. We
assess the mortality and expense risk charge during both the Accumulation Phase
and the Payout Phase.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE

We deduct an administrative expense charge daily at an annual rate of 0.10% of
the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts. We
intend this charge to cover actual administrative expenses that exceed the
revenues from the contract maintenance charge. There is no necessary
relationship between the amount of administrative charge imposed on a given
Contract and the amount of expenses that may be attributed to that Contract. We
assess this charge each day during the Accumulation Phase and the Payout Phase.
We guarantee that we will not raise this charge.

TRANSFER FEE

We do not currently impose a fee upon transfers among the investment
alternatives. However, we reserve the right to charge $10 per transfer after the
12th transfer in each Contract Year. We will not charge a transfer fee on

transfers that are part of a Dollar Cost Averaging or Automatic Fund Rebalancing
Program.

WITHDRAWAL CHARGE

We may assess a withdrawal charge of up to 7% of the purchase payment(s) you
withdraw in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market
Value Adjustment. The charge declines annually to 0% after 7 complete years from
the day we receive the purchase payment being withdrawn. A schedule showing how
the charge declines appears on page 7. During each Contract Year, you can
withdraw up to 15% of the Contract Value as of the beginning of that Contract
Year without paying the charge. Unused portions of this 15% "PREFERRED
WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT" are not carried forward to future Contract Years.

We determine the withdrawal charge by:

..    multiplying the percentage corresponding to the number of complete years
     since we received the purchase payment being withdrawn, times

..    the part of each purchase payment withdrawal that is in excess of the
     Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment.

We will deduct withdrawal charges, if applicable, from the amount paid. For
purposes of the withdrawal charge, we will treat withdrawals as coming from the
oldest purchase payments first. However, for federal income tax purposes, please
note that withdrawals are considered to have come first from earnings in the
Contract. Thus, for tax purposes, earnings are considered to come out first,
which means you pay taxes on the earnings portion of your withdrawal.

If you make a withdrawal before the Payout Start Date, we will apply the
withdrawal charge percentage in effect on the date of the withdrawal, or the
withdrawal charge percentage in effect on the following day, whichever is

                                  18 PROSPECTUS




lower.We do not apply a withdrawal charge in the following situations:

..    on the Payout Start Date (a withdrawal charge may apply if you elect to
     receive income payments for a specified period of less than 120 months);

..    the death of the Contract owner or Annuitant (unless the Settlement Value
     is used);

..    withdrawals taken to satisfy IRS minimum distribution rules for the
     Contract; and

..    withdrawals made after all purchase payments have been withdrawn.

We use the amounts obtained from the withdrawal charge to pay sales commissions
and other promotional or distribution expenses associated with marketing the
Contracts. To the extent that the withdrawal charge does not cover all sales
commissions and other promotional or distribution expenses, we may use any of
our corporate assets, including potential profit which may arise from the
mortality and expense risk charge or any other charges or fee described above,
to make up any difference.

Withdrawals may be subject to tax penalties or income tax and a Market Value
Adjustment. You should consult your own tax counsel or other tax advisers
regarding any withdrawals.

PREMIUM TAXES

Currently, we do not make deductions for premium taxes under the Contract
because New York does not charge premium taxes on annuities. We may deduct taxes
that may be imposed in the future from purchase payments or the Contract Value
when the tax is incurred or at a later time.

DEDUCTION FOR VARIABLE ACCOUNT INCOME TAXES

We are not currently making a provision for taxes. In the future, however, we
may make a provision for taxes if we determine, in our sole discretion, that we
will incur a tax as a result of the operation of the Variable Account. We will
deduct for any taxes we incur as a result of the operation of the Variable
Account, whether or not we previously made a provision for taxes and whether or
not it was sufficient. Our status under the Internal Revenue Code is briefly
described in the Taxes section.

OTHER EXPENSES

Each Fund deducts advisory fees and other expenses from its assets. You
indirectly bear the charges and expenses of the Fund whose shares are held by
the Variable Sub-Accounts. These fees and expenses are described in the
accompanying prospectus for the Funds. For a summary of current estimates of
those charges and expenses, see pages 7-8.

We may receive compensation from A I M Advisors, Inc., for administrative
services we provide to the Funds.

ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

You can withdraw some or all of your Contract Value at any time prior to the
Payout Start Date. Withdrawals also are available under limited circumstances on
or after the Payout Start Date. See "Income Plans" on page 20.

The amount payable upon withdrawal is the Contract Value next computed after we
receive the request for a withdrawal at our service center, adjusted by any
Market Value Adjustment, less any withdrawal charges, contract maintenance
charges, income tax withholding, and any premium taxes. We will pay withdrawals
from the Variable Account within 7 days of receipt of the request, subject to
postponement in certain circumstances.

You can withdraw money from the Variable Account or the Fixed Account Options.
To complete a partial withdrawal from the Variable Account, we will cancel
Accumulation Units in an amount equal to the withdrawal and any applicable
withdrawal charge and premium taxes.

You have the opportunity to name the investment alternative(s) from which you
are taking the withdrawal. If none is specified, we will deduct your withdrawal
pro-rata from the investment alternatives according to the value of your
investments therein.

In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a time. You also may withdraw a
lesser amount if you are withdrawing your entire interest in a Variable
Sub-Account.

If you request a total withdrawal, we may request that you return your Contract
to us. We also will deduct a Contract Maintenance Charge of $35, unless we have
waived the Contract Maintenance Charge on your Contract.

Withdrawals taken prior to annuitization (referred to in this prospectus as the
Payout Phase) are generally considered to come from the earnings in the Contract
first. If the Contract is tax-qualified, generally all withdrawals are treated
as distributions of earnings. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10%
federal tax penalty.

POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS

We may postpone the payment of any amounts due from the Variable Account under
the Contract if:

                                  19 PROSPECTUS




1.   The New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than usual weekends or
     holidays, or trading on the Exchange is otherwise restricted;

2.   An emergency exists as defined by the SEC; or

3.   The SEC permits delay for your protection.

In addition, we may delay payments or transfers from the Fixed Account Options
for up to 6 months or shorter period if required by law. If we delay payment or
transfer for 10 days or more, we will pay interest as required by law. Any
interest would be payable from the date we receive the withdrawal request to the
date we make the payment or transfer.

SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM

You may choose to receive systematic withdrawal payments on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis at any time prior to the Payout Start
Date. The minimum amount of each systematic withdrawal is $50. Systematic
Withdrawals are not available from the Dollar Cost Averaging Option. At our
discretion, systematic withdrawals may not be offered in conjunction with the
Dollar Cost Averaging Program or the Automatic Fund Rebalancing Program.

Depending on fluctuations in the accumulation unit value of the Variable
Sub-Accounts and the value of the Fixed Account Options, systematic withdrawals
may reduce or even exhaust the Contract Value. Please consult your tax advisor
before taking any withdrawal.

We will make systematic withdrawal payments to you or your designated payee. We
may modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program and charge a processing
fee for the service. If we modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program,
existing systematic withdrawal payments will not be affected.

MINIMUM CONTRACT VALUE

If your request for a partial withdrawal would reduce the amount in any
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we may treat it as a request to withdraw the
entire amount invested in such Guarantee Period. If your request for a partial
withdrawal would reduce the Contract Value to less than $1,000, we may treat it
as a request to withdraw your entire Contract Value. Your Contract will
terminate if you withdraw all of your Contract Value. We will, however, ask you
to confirm your withdrawal request before terminating your Contract. Before
terminating any Contract value whose value has been reduced by withdrawals to
less than $1,000, we would inform you in writing of our intention to terminate
your Contact and give you at least 30 days in which to make an additional
Purchase Payment to restore your Contract's value to the contractual minimum of
$1,000. If we terminate your Contract, we will distribute to you its Contract
Value, adjusted by any applicable Market Value Adjustment, less withdrawal and
other charges, and applicable taxes.

INCOME PAYMENTS

PAYOUT START DATE

The Payout Start Date is the day that we apply your Contract Value, adjusted by
any Market Value Adjustment and less any applicable taxes, to an Income Plan.
The Payout Start Date must be no later than the Annuitant's 90th birthday.

You may change the Payout Start Date at any time by notifying us in writing of
the change at least 30 days before the scheduled Payout Start Date. Absent a
change, we will use the Payout Start Date stated in your Contract.

INCOME PLANS

An "Income Plan" is a series of payments on a scheduled basis to you or to
another person designated by you. You may choose and change your choice of
Income Plan until 30 days before the Payout Start Date. If you do not select an
Income Plan, we will make income payments in accordance with Income Plan 1 with
guaranteed payments for 10 years. After the Payout Start Date, you may not make
withdrawals (except as described below) or change your choice of Income Plan.
Three Income Plans are available under the Contract. Each is available to
provide:

..    fixed income payments;

..    variable income payments; or

..    a combination of the two.

A portion of each payment will be considered taxable and the remaining portion
will be a non-taxable return of your investment in the Contract, which is also
called the "basis". Once the basis in the Contract is depleted, all remaining
payments will be fully taxable. If the Contract is tax-qualified, generally, all
payments will be fully taxable. Taxable payments taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

The three Income Plans are:

INCOME PLAN 1 - LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under this plan, we make
periodic income payments for at least as long as the Annuitant lives. If the
Annuitant dies before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we
will continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required
by the Contract.

INCOME PLAN 2 - JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under
this plan, we make periodic income payments for at least as long as either the
Annuitant or the joint Annuitant is alive. If both the Annuitant and the joint
Annuitant die before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we will

                                  20 PROSPECTUS




continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required by
the Contract.

INCOME PLAN 3 - GUARANTEED PAYMENTS FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD (5 YEARS TO 30
YEARS). Under this plan, we make periodic income payments for the period you
have chosen. These payments do not depend on the Annuitant's life. Income
payments for less than 120 months may be subject to a withdrawal charge. We will
deduct the mortality and expense risk charge from the Variable Sub-Account
assets that support variable income payments even though we may not bear any
mortality risk.

The length of any guaranteed payment period under your selected Income Plan
generally will affect the dollar amounts of each income payment. As a general
rule, longer guarantee periods result in lower income payments, all other things
being equal. For example, if you choose an Income Plan with payments that depend
on the life of the Annuitant but with no minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments, the income payments generally will be greater than the income payments
made under the same Income Plan with a minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments.

If you choose Income Plan 1 or 2, or, if available, another Income Plan with
payments that continue for the life of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant, we may
require proof of age and sex of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant before starting
income payments, and proof that the Annuitant or joint Annuitant is alive before
we make each payment. Please note that under such Income Plans, if you elect to
take no minimum guaranteed payments, it is possible that the payee could receive
only 1 income payment if the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant both die before
the second income payment, or only 2 income payments if they die before the
third income payment, and so on.

Generally, you may not make withdrawals after the Payout Start Date. One
exception to this rule applies if you are receiving variable income payments
that do not depend on the life of the Annuitant (such as under Income Plan 3).
In that case you may terminate all or a portion of the Variable Account portion
of the income payments at any time and receive a lump sum equal to the present
value of the remaining variable payments associated with the amount withdrawn.
To determine the present value of any remaining variable income payments being
withdrawn, we use a discount rate equal to the assumed annual investment rate
that we use to compute such variable income payments. The minimum amount you may
withdraw under this feature is $1,000. A withdrawal charge may apply. We deduct
applicable premium taxes from the Contract Value at the Payout Start Date.

We may make other Income Plans available. You may obtain information about them
by writing or calling us.

You must apply at least the Contract Value in the Fixed Account Options on the
Payout Start Date to fixed income payments. If you wish to apply any portion of
your Fixed Account Option balance to provide variable income payments, you
should plan ahead and transfer that amount to the Variable Sub-Accounts prior to
the Payout Start Date. If you do not tell us how to allocate your Contract Value
among fixed and variable income payments, we will apply your Contract Value in
the Variable Account to variable income payments and your Contract Value in the
Fixed Account Options to fixed income payments.

We will apply your Contract Value, adjusted by any applicable Market Value
Adjustment, less applicable taxes to your Income Plan on the Payout Start Date.
If the Contract owner has not made any purchase payments for at least 3 years
preceding the Payout Start Date, and either the Contract Value is less than
$2,000 or not enough to provide an initial payment of at least $20, and state
law permits, we may:

..    terminate the Contract and pay you the Contract Value, adjusted by any
     Market Value Adjustment and less any applicable taxes, in a lump sum
     instead of the periodic payments you have chosen, or

..    reduce the frequency of your payments so that each payment will be at least
     $20.

VARIABLE INCOME PAYMENTS

The amount of your variable income payments depends upon the investment results
of the Variable Sub-Accounts you select, the premium taxes you pay, the age and
sex of the Annuitant, and the Income Plan you choose. We guarantee that the
payments will not be affected by (a) actual mortality experience and (b) the
amount of our administration expenses.

We cannot predict the total amount of your variable income payments. Your
variable income payments may be more or less than your total purchase payments
because (a) variable income payments vary with the investment results of the
underlying Funds and (b) the Annuitant could live longer or shorter than we
expect based on the tables we use.

In calculating the amount of the periodic payments in the annuity tables in the
Contract, we assumed an annual investment rate of 3%. If the actual net
investment return of the Variable Sub-Accounts you choose is less than this
assumed investment rate, then the dollar amount of your variable income payments
will decrease. The dollar amount of your variable income payments will increase,
however, if the actual net investment return exceeds the assumed investment
rate. The dollar amount of the variable income payments stays level if the net
investment return equals the assumed investment rate. Please refer to the
Statement of Additional Information for more detailed information as to how we
determine variable income payments.

                                  21 PROSPECTUS




FIXED INCOME PAYMENTS

We guarantee income payment amounts derived from any Fixed Account Option for
the duration of the Income Plan. We calculate the fixed income payments by:

1)   adjusting the portion of the Contract Value in any Fixed Account Option on
     the Payout Start Date by any applicable Market Value Adjustment;

2)   deducting any applicable premium tax; and

3)   applying the resulting amount to the greater of (a) the appropriate value
     from the income payment table in your Contract or (b) such other value as
     we are offering at that time.

We may defer making fixed income payments for a period of up to 6 months or such
shorter time as state law may require. If we defer payments for 10 business days
or more, we will pay interest as required by law from the date we receive the
withdrawal request to the date we make payment.

CERTAIN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Contracts offered by this prospectus contain income payment tables that
provide for different payments to men and women of the same age. However, we
reserve the right to use income payment tables that do not distinguish on the
basis of sex to the extent permitted by law. In certain employment-related
situations, employers are required by law to use the same income payment tables
for men and women. Accordingly, if the Contract is to be used in connection with
an employment-related retirement or benefit plan, you should consult with legal
counsel as to whether the purchase of a Contract is appropriate. For qualified
plans, where it is appropriate, we may use income payment tables that do not
distinguish on the basis of sex.

DEATH BENEFITS

We will pay a death benefit if, prior to the Payout Start Date:

1.   any Contract owner dies or,

2.   the Annuitant dies, if the Contract owner is not a living person.

We will pay the death benefit to the new Contract owner who is determined
immediately after the death. The new Contract owner would be a surviving
Contract owner or, if none, the Beneficiary(ies). In the case of the death of an
Annuitant, we will pay the death benefit to the current Contract owner. A
request for payment of the death benefit must include "DUE PROOF OF DEATH." We
will accept the following documentation as Due Proof of Death:

..    a certified copy of a death certificate,

..    a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the
     finding of death, or

..    any other proof acceptable to us.

Where there are multiple beneficiaries, we will only value the death benefit at
the time the first beneficiary submits the necessary documentation in good
order. Any death benefit amounts attributable to any beneficiary which remain in
the investment divisions are subject to investment risk.

DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT

Prior to the Payout Start Date, the death benefit is equal to the greatest of:

1.   the Contract Value as of the date we determine the death benefit, or

2.   the SETTLEMENT VALUE (that is, the amount payable on a full withdrawal of
     Contract Value) on the date we determine the death benefit, or

3.   the sum of all purchase payments reduced by a withdrawal adjustment, as
     defined below, or

4.   the greatest of the Contract Value on each DEATH BENEFIT ANNIVERSARY prior
     to the date we determine the death benefit, increased by purchase payments
     made since that Death Benefit Anniversary and reduced by a withdrawal
     adjustment as defined below.

In calculating the Settlement Value, the amount in each individual Guarantee
Period may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment
will apply to amounts in a Guarantee Period, unless we calculate the Settlement
Value during the 30-day period after the expiration of the Guarantee Period.
Also, the Settlement Value will reflect deduction of any applicable withdrawal
charges, contract maintenance charges, and premium taxes.

A "Death Benefit Anniversary" is every seventh Contract Anniversary during the
Accumulation Phase. For example, the 7th, 14th, and 21st Contract Anniversaries
are the first three Death Benefit Anniversaries.

The "withdrawal adjustment" is equal to (a) divided by (b), with the result
multiplied by (c), where:

(a)  is the withdrawal amount;

(b)  is the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal; and

(c)  is the value of the applicable death benefit alternative immediately prior
     to the withdrawal.

Please see Appendix B to this prospectus, which contains examples of the
application of the withdrawal adjustment.

We will determine the value of the death benefit as of the end of the Valuation
Date on which we receive a complete request for payment of the death benefit. If
we receive a request after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on a Valuation Date,

                                  22 PROSPECTUS




we will process the request as of the end of the following Valuation Date.

ENHANCED DEATH BENEFIT OPTION

If the oldest Contract owner and Annuitant is less than or equal to age 80 as of
the date we receive the completed application, the Enhanced Death Benefit
Option, is an optional benefit that you may select. If the Contract owner is a
living individual, the Enhanced Death Benefit applies only for the death of the
Contract owner. If the Contract owner is not a living individual, the enhanced
death benefit applies only for the death of the Annuitant. For Contracts with
the Enhanced Death Benefit Rider, the death benefit will be the greatest of (1)
through (4) above, or (5) the Enhanced Death Benefit, described below. The
Enhanced Death Benefit will never be greater than the maximum death benefit
allowed by any state nonforfeiture laws which govern the Contract.

ENHANCED DEATH BENEFIT. The Enhanced Death Benefit on the Issue Date is equal to
the initial purchase payment. On each Contract Anniversary, we will recalculate
your Enhanced Death Benefit to equal the greater of your Contract Value on that
date, or the most recently calculated Enhanced Death Benefit. We also will
recalculate your Enhanced Death Benefit whenever you make an additional purchase
payment or a partial withdrawal. Additional purchase payments will increase the
Enhanced Death Benefit dollar-for-dollar. Withdrawals will reduce the Enhanced
Death Benefit by an amount equal to a withdrawal adjustment computed in the
manner described above under "Death Benefit Amount." In the absence of any
withdrawals or purchase payments, the Enhanced Death Benefit will be the
greatest of all Contract Anniversary Contract Values on or before the date we
calculate the death benefit.

We will calculate ANNIVERSARY VALUES for each Contract Anniversary prior to the
oldest Contract owner's or the oldest Annuitant's, if the Contract owner is not
a living person, 85th birthday. After age 85, we will recalculate the Enhanced
Death Benefit only for purchase payments and withdrawals. The Enhanced Death
Benefit will never be greater than the maximum death benefit allowed by any
non-forfeiture laws which govern the Contract.

DEATH BENEFIT PAYMENTS

IF THE NEW OWNER IS YOUR SPOUSE, THE NEW OWNER MAY:

1.   elect to receive the death benefit in a lump sum, or

2.   elect to apply the death benefit to an Income Plan. Payments from the
     Income Plan must begin within 1 year of the date of death and must be
     payable throughout:

..    the life of the new Owner; or

..    for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years, but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of the new Owner; or

..    over the life of the new Owner with a guaranteed number of payments from 5
     to 30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of the new Owner.

If your spouse does not elect one of the above options, the Contract will
continue in the Accumulation Phase as if the death had not occurred. If the
Contract is continued in the Accumulation Phase, the following restrictions
apply:

..    On the date the Contract is continued, the Contract Value will equal the
     amount of the Death Benefit as determined as of the Valuation Date on which
     we received the completed request for settlement of the death benefit (the
     next Valuation Date, if we receive the completed request for settlement of
     the death benefit after 3 p.m. Central Time). Unless otherwise instructed
     by the continuing spouse, the excess, if any, of the death benefit over the
     Contract Value will be allocated to the Sub-Accounts of the Variable
     Account. This excess will be allocated in proportion to your Contract Value
     in those Sub-accounts as of the end of the Valuation Period during which we
     receive the completed request for settlement of the death benefit, except
     that any portion of this excess attributable to the Fixed Account Options
     will be allocated to the Money Market Sub-account. Within 30 days of the
     date the Contract is continued, your surviving spouse may choose one of the
     following transfer alternatives without incurring a transfer fee:

..    transfer all or a portion of the excess among the Variable Sub-Accounts;

..    transfer all or a portion of the excess into the Guaranteed Maturity Fixed
     Account and begin a new Guarantee Period; or

..    transfer all or a portion of the excess into a combination of Variable
     Sub-Accounts and the Guaranteed Maturity Fixed Account.

Any such transfer does not count as one of the free transfers allowed each
Contract Year and is subject to any minimum allocation amount specified in your
Contract.

The surviving spouse may make a single withdrawal of any amount within one year
of the date of death without incurring a Withdrawal Charge.

Only one spousal continuation is allowed under this Contract.

IF THE NEW OWNER IS NOT YOUR SPOUSE BUT IS A LIVING PERSON, THE NEW OWNER MAY:

1)   elect to receive the death benefit in a lump sum, or

2)   elect to apply the death benefit to an Income Plan. Payments from the
     Income Plan must begin within 1 year of the date of death and must be
     payable throughout:

..    the life of the new Owner; or

                                  23 PROSPECTUS




..    for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years, but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of the new Owner; or

..    over the life of the new Owner with a guaranteed number of payments from 5
     to 30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of the new Owner.

If the new Owner does not elect one of the above options then the new Owner must
receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of your date of death. The
Contract Value will equal the amount of the death benefit as determined as of
the Valuation Date on which we received a completed request for settlement of
the death benefit (the next Valuation Date, if we receive a completed request
for settlement of the death benefit after 3 p.m. Central Time). Unless otherwise
instructed by the new Owner, the excess, if any, of the death benefit over the
Contract Value will be allocated to the Money Market Variable Sub-Account. The
new Owner may exercise all rights as set forth in the TRANSFERS section during
this 5 year period.

No additional Purchase Payments may be added to the Contract under this
election. Withdrawal Charges will be waived for any withdrawals made during this
5 year period.

If the new Owner dies prior to the receiving all of the Contract Value, then the
new Owner's named Beneficiary(ies) will receive the greater of the Settlement
Value or the remaining Contract Value. This amount must be received as a lump
sum within 5 years of the date of the original Owner's death.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon Death of Owner.

IF THE NEW OWNER IS A CORPORATION, TRUST, OR OTHER NON-LIVING PERSON:

(a)  The new Owner may elect to receive the death benefit in a lump sum; or

(b)  If the new Owner does not elect the option above, then the new Owner must
     receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of your date of death. On
     the date we receive the complete request for settlement of the Death
     Benefit, the Contract Value under this option will be the death benefit.
     Unless otherwise instructed by the new Owner, the excess, if any of the
     death benefit over the Contract Value will be allocated to the Money Market
     Variable Sub-Account. The new Owner may exercise all rights set forth in
     the TRANSFERS provision during this 5 year period. No additional Purchase
     Payments may be added to the Contract under this election. Withdrawal
     Charges will be waived during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon Death of Owner.

If any new Owner is a non-living person, all new Owners will be considered to be
non-living persons for the above purposes.

Under any of these options, all ownership rights, subject to any restrictions
previously placed upon the Beneficiary, are available to the new Owner from the
date of your death to the date on which the death proceeds are paid.

DEATH OF ANNUITANT

If the Annuitant who is not also the Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout
Start Date and the Contract Owner is a living person, then the Contract will
continue with a new Annuitant as designated by the Contract Owner.

If the Annuitant who is not also the Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout
Start Date and the Contract Owner is a non-living person, the following apply:

(a)  The Contract Owner may elect to receive the death benefit in a lump sum; or

(b)  If the new Owner does not elect the option above, then the Owner must
     receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of the Annuitant's date
     of death. On the date we receive the complete request for settlement of the
     death benefit, the Contract Value under this option will be the death
     benefit. Unless otherwise instructed by the Contract Owner, the excess, if
     any, of the death benefit over the Contract Value will be allocated to the
     Money Market Variable Sub-Account. The Contract Owner may then exercise all
     rights set forth in the TRANSFERS provision during this 5 year period. No
     additional Purchase Payments may be added to the Contract under this
     election. Withdrawal Charges will be waived during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon Death of Owner.

MORE INFORMATION

ALLSTATE NEW YORK

Allstate New York is the issuer of the Contract. Allstate New York is a stock
life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of New York.
Allstate New York was incorporated in 1967 and was known as "Financial Life
Insurance Company" from 1967 to 1978. From 1978 to 1984, Allstate New York was
known as "PM Life Insurance Company." Since 1984 the company has been known as
"Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York."

Allstate New York is currently licensed to operate in New York. Our home office
is located at 100 Motor Parkway, Hauppauge, NY 11788-5107. Our service center
located in Northbrook, Illinois.

Allstate New York is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance
Company ("ALLSTATE LIFE"), a stock life insurance company incorporated under the
laws of the State of Illinois. Allstate Life is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Allstate Insurance Company, a stock property-liability insurance company
incorporated under the laws of Illinois. With the exception of the directors
qualifying shares, all of the outstanding capital stock of Allstate Insurance
Company is owned by The Allstate Corporation.

THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT

Allstate New York established the Allstate Life of New York Separate Account A
on December 15, 1995. We have registered the Variable Account with the SEC as a
unit investment trust. The SEC does not supervise the management of the Variable
Account or Allstate New York.

We own the assets of the Variable Account. The Variable Account is a segregated
asset account under New York law. That means we account for the Variable
Account's income, gains and losses separately from the results of our other
operations. It also means that only the assets of the Variable Account that are
in excess of the reserves and other Contract liabilities with respect to the
Variable Account are subject to liabilities relating to our other operations.

Our obligations arising under the Contracts are general corporate obligations of
Allstate New York.

The Variable Account consists of multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, 18 of which are
available through the Contracts. Each Variable Sub-Account invests in a
corresponding Fund. We may add new Variable Sub-Accounts or eliminate one or
more of them, if we believe marketing, tax, or investment conditions so warrant.
We do not guarantee the investment performance of the Variable Account, its
Sub-Accounts or the Funds. We may use the Variable Account to fund our other
annuity contracts. We will account separately for each type of annuity contract
funded by the Variable Account.

THE FUNDS

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS. We automatically reinvest all
dividends and capital gains distributions from the Funds in shares of the
distributing Fund at their net asset value.

VOTING PRIVILEGES. As a general matter, you do not have a direct right to vote
the shares of the Funds held by the Variable Sub-Accounts to which you have
allocated your Contract Value. Under current law, however, you are entitled to
give us instructions on how to vote those shares on certain matters. Based on
our present view of the law, we will vote the shares of the Funds that we hold
directly or indirectly through the Variable Account in accordance with
instructions that we receive from Contract owners entitled to give such
instructions.

As a general rule, before the Payout Start Date, the Contract owner or anyone
with a voting interest is the person entitled to give voting instructions. The
number of shares that a person has a right to instruct will be determined by
dividing the Contract Value allocated to the applicable Variable Sub-Account by
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund as of the record date of
the meeting. After the Payout Start Date, the person receiving income payments
has the voting interest. The payee's number of votes will be determined by
dividing the reserve for such Contract allocated to the applicable Variable
Sub-Account by the net asset value per share of the corresponding Fund. The
votes decrease as income payments are made and as the reserves for the Contract
decrease.

We will vote shares attributable to Contracts for which we have not received
instructions, as well as shares attributable to us, in the same proportion as we
vote shares for which we have received instructions, unless we determine that we
may vote such shares in our own discretion. We will apply voting instructions to
abstain on any item to be voted on a pro-rata basis to reduce the votes eligible
to be cast.

We reserve the right to vote Fund shares as we see fit without regard to voting
instructions to the extent permitted by law. If we disregard voting
instructions, we will include a summary of that action and our reasons for that
action in the next semi-annual financial report we send to you.

CHANGES IN FUNDS. If the shares of any of the Funds are no longer available for
investment by the Variable Account or if, in our judgment, further investment in
such shares is no longer desirable in view of the purposes of the Contract, we
may eliminate that Fund and substitute shares of another eligible investment
fund. Any substitution of securities will comply with the requirements of the
1940 Act. We also may add new Variable Sub-Accounts that invest in underlying
Funds. We will notify you in advance of any changes.

                                  25 PROSPECTUS




CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Certain of the Funds sell their shares to Variable
Accounts underlying both variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts.
It is conceivable that in the future it may be unfavorable for variable life
insurance Variable Accounts and variable annuity Variable Accounts to invest in
the same Fund. The boards of trustees of these Funds monitor for possible
conflicts among Variable Accounts buying shares of the Funds. Conflicts could
develop for a variety of reasons. For example, differences in treatment under
tax and other laws or the failure by a Variable Account to comply with such laws
could cause a conflict. To eliminate a conflict, a Fund's board of trustees may
require a Variable Account to withdraw its participation in a Fund. A Fund's net
asset value could decrease if it had to sell investment securities to pay
redemption proceeds to a Variable Account withdrawing because of a conflict.

THE CONTRACT

DISTRIBUTION. ALFS, Inc.* ("ALFS"), located at 3100 Sanders Road, Northbrook, IL
60062-7154, serves as principal underwriter of the Contracts. ALFS is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company. ALFS is a registered broker
dealer under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("EXCHANGE
ACT"), and is a member of the NASD.

We will pay commissions to broker-dealers who sell the Contracts. Commissions
paid may vary, but we estimate that the total commissions paid on all Contract
sales will not exceed 8 1/2% of any purchase payments. Sometimes, we also pay
the broker-dealer a persistency bonus in addition to the standard commissions. A
persistency bonus is not expected to exceed 1.2%, on an annual basis, of the
purchase payments considered in connection with the bonus. These commissions are
intended to cover distribution expenses. Contracts may be sold by
representatives or employees of banks which may be acting as broker-dealers
without separate registration under the Exchange Act, pursuant to legal and
regulatory exceptions.

Allstate New York does not pay ALFS a commission for distribution of the
Contracts. The underwriting agreement with ALFS provides that we will reimburse
ALFS for any liability to Contract owners arising out of services rendered or
Contracts issued.

ADMINISTRATION. We have primary responsibility for all administration of the
Contracts and the Variable Account. We provide the following administrative
services, among others:

..    issuance of the Contracts;

..    maintenance of Contract owner records;

..    Contract owner services;

..    calculation of unit values;

..    maintenance of the Variable Account; and

..    preparation of Contract owner reports.

We will send you Contract statements and transaction confirmations at least
annually. The annual statement details values and specific Contract data for
each particular Contract. You should notify us promptly in writing of any
address change. You should read your statements and confirmations carefully and
verify their accuracy. You should contact us promptly if you have a question
about a periodic statement. We will investigate all complaints and make any
necessary adjustments retroactively, but you must notify us of a potential error
within a reasonable time after the date of the questioned statement. If you wait
too long, we will make the adjustment as of the date that we receive notice of
the potential error.

We also will provide you with additional periodic and other reports, information
and prospectuses as may be required by federal securities laws.

NON-QUALIFIED ANNUITIES HELD WITHIN A QUALIFIED PLAN

If you use the Contract within an employer sponsored qualified retirement plan,
the plan may impose different or additional conditions or limitations on
withdrawals, waivers of withdrawal charges, death benefits, Payout Start Dates,
income payments and other Contract features. In addition, adverse tax
consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions and other
conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan administrator fr more
information. Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York no longer issues
deferred annuities to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

LEGAL MATTERS

All matters of New York law pertaining to the Contracts, including the validity
of the Contracts and Allstate New York's right to issue such Contracts under New
York insurance law, have been passed upon by Michael J. Velotta, General Counsel
of Allstate New York.

TAXES

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS GENERAL AND IS NOT INTENDED AS TAX ADVICE. ALLSTATE
NEW YORK MAKES NO GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX TREATMENT OF ANY CONTRACT OR
TRANSACTION INVOLVING A CONTRACT.

Federal, state, local and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of
distributions under an annuity contract depend on your individual circumstances.
If you are concerned about any tax consequences with regard to your individual
circumstances, you should consult a competent tax adviser.

TAXATION OF ALLSTATE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK

Allstate New York is taxed as a life insurance company under Part I of
Subchapter L of the Code. Since the Variable Account is not an entity separate
from Allstate New York, and its operations form a part of Allstate New York, it
will not be taxed separately. Investment income and realized capital gains of
the Variable Account are automatically applied to increase reserves under the
Contract. Under existing federal income tax law, Allstate New York believes that
the Variable Account investment income and capital gains will not be taxed to
the extent that such income and gains are applied to increase the reserves under
the Contract. Accordingly, Allstate New York does not anticipate that it will
incur any federal income tax liability attributable to the Variable Account, and
therefore Allstate New York does not intend to make provisions for any such
taxes. If Allstate New York is taxed on investment income or capital gains of
the Variable Account, then Allstate New York may impose a charge against the
Variable Account in order to make provision for such taxes.

TAXATION OF VARIABLE ANNUITIES IN GENERAL

TAX DEFERRAL. Generally, you are not taxed on increases in the Contract Value
until a distribution occurs. This rule applies only where:

..    the Contract Owner is a natural person,

..    the investments of the Variable Account are "adequately diversified"
     according to Treasury Department regulations, and

..    Allstate New York is considered the owner of the Variable Account assets
     for federal income tax purposes.

NON-NATURAL OWNERS. Non-natural owners are also referred to as Non Living Owners
in this prospectus. As a general rule, annuity contracts owned by non-natural
persons such as corporations, trusts, or other entities are not treated as
annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. The income on such contracts
does not enjoy tax deferral and is taxed as ordinary income received or accrued
by the non-natural owner during the taxable year.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE NON-NATURAL OWNER RULE. There are several exceptions to the
general rule that annuity contracts held by a non-natural owner are not treated
as annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. Contracts will generally
be treated as held by a natural person if the nominal owner is a trust or other
entity which holds the contract as agent for a natural person. However, this
special exception will not apply in the case of an employer who is the nominal
owner of an annuity contract under a non-Qualified deferred compensation
arrangement for its employees. Other exceptions to the non-natural owner rule
are: (1) contracts acquired by an estate of a decedent by reason of the death of
the decedent; (2) certain qualified contracts; (3) contracts purchased by
employers upon the termination of certain qualified plans; (4) certain contracts
used in connection with structured settlement agreements; and (5) immediate
annuity contracts, purchased with a single premium, when the annuity starting
date is no later than a year from purchase of the annuity and substantially
equal periodic payments are made, not less frequently than annually, during the
annuity period.

GRANTOR TRUST OWNED ANNUITY. Contracts owned by a grantor trust are considered
owned by a non-natural owner. Grantor trust owned contracts receive tax deferral
as described in the Exceptions to the Non-Natural Owner Rule section. In
accordance with the Code, upon the death of the annuitant, the death benefit
must be paid. According to your Contract, the Death Benefit is paid to the
surviving Contract Owner. Since the trust will be the surviving Contract Owner
in all cases, the Death Benefit will be payable to the trust notwithstanding any
beneficiary designation on the annuity contract. A trust, including a grantor
trust, has two options for receiving any death benefits: 1) a lump sum payment;
or 2) payment deferred up to five years from date of death.

DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. For a Contract to be treated as an annuity for
federal income tax purposes, the investments in the Variable Account must be
"adequately diversified" consistent with standards under Treasury Department
regulations. If the investments in the Variable Account are not adequately
diversified, the Contract will not be treated as an annuity contract for federal
income tax purposes. As a result, the income on the Contract will be taxed as
ordinary income received or accrued by the Contract owner during the taxable
year. Although Allstate New York does not have control over the Portfolios or
their investments, we expect the Portfolios to meet the diversification
requirements.

OWNERSHIP TREATMENT. The IRS has stated that a contract owner will be considered
the owner of separate account assets if he possesses incidents of ownership in
those assets, such as the ability to exercise investment control over the
assets. At the time the diversification regulations were issued, the Treasury
Department

                                  27 PROSPECTUS




announced that the regulations do not provide guidance concerning circumstances
in which investor control of the separate account investments may cause a
Contract owner to be treated as the owner of the separate account. The Treasury
Department also stated that future guidance would be issued regarding the extent
that owners could direct sub-account investments without being treated as owners
of the underlying assets of the separate account.

Your rights under the Contract are different than those described by the IRS in
private and published rulings in which it found that Contract owners were not
owners of separate account assets. For example, if your contract offers more
than twenty (20) investment alternatives you have the choice to allocate
premiums and contract values among a broader selection of investment
alternatives than described in such rulings. You may be able to transfer among
investment alternatives more frequently than in such rulings. These differences
could result in you being treated as the owner of the Variable Account. If this
occurs, income and gain from the Variable Account assets would be includible in
your gross income. Allstate New York does not know what standards will be set
forth in any regulations or rulings which the Treasury Department may issue. It
is possible that future standards announced by the Treasury Department could
adversely affect the tax treatment of your Contract. We reserve the right to
modify the Contract as necessary to attempt to prevent you from being considered
the federal tax owner of the assets of the Variable Account. However, we make no
guarantee that such modification to the Contract will be successful.

TAXATION OF PARTIAL AND FULL WITHDRAWALS. If you make a partial withdrawal under
a Non-Qualified Contract, amounts received are taxable to the extent the
Contract Value, without regard to surrender charges, exceeds the investment in
the Contract. The investment in the Contract is the gross premium paid for the
contract minus any amounts previously received from the Contract if such amounts
were properly excluded from your gross income. If you make a full withdrawal
under a Non-Qualified Contract, the amount received will be taxable only to the
extent it exceeds the investment in the Contract.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS. Generally, the rule for income taxation of annuity
payments received from a Non-Qualified Contract provides for the return of your
investment in the Contract in equal tax-free amounts over the payment period.
The balance of each payment received is taxable. For fixed annuity payments, the
amount excluded from income is determined by multiplying the payment by the
ratio of the investment in the Contract (adjusted for any refund feature or
period certain) to the total expected value of annuity payments for the term of
the Contract. If you elect variable annuity payments, the amount excluded from
taxable income is determined by dividing the investment in the Contract by the
total number of expected payments. The annuity payments will be fully taxable
after the total amount of the investment in the Contract is excluded using these
ratios. If any variable payment is less than the excludable amount you should
contact a competent tax advisor to determine how to report any unrecovered
investment. The federal tax treatment of annuity payments is unclear in some
respects. As a result, if the IRS should provide further guidance, it is
possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as taxable could be
different. If you die, and annuity payments cease before the total amount of the
investment in the Contract is recovered, the unrecovered amount will be allowed
as a deduction for your last taxable year.

WITHDRAWALS AFTER THE PAYOUT START DATE. Federal tax law is unclear regarding
the taxation of any additional withdrawal received after the Payout Start Date.
It is possible that a greater or lesser portion of such a payment could be
taxable than the amount we determine.

DISTRIBUTION AT DEATH RULES. In order to be considered an annuity contract for
federal income tax purposes, the Contract must provide:

..    if any Contract Owner dies on or after the Payout Start Date but before the
     entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, the remaining portion
     of such interest must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
     method of distribution being used as of the date of the Contract Owner's
     death;

..    if any Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the entire
     interest in the Contract will be distributed within 5 years after the date
     of the Contract Owner's death. These requirements are satisfied if any
     portion of the Contract Owner's interest that is payable to (or for the
     benefit of) a designated Beneficiary is distributed over the life of such
     Beneficiary (or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of
     the Beneficiary) and the distributions begin within 1 year of the Contract
     Owner's death. If the Contract Owner's designated Beneficiary is the
     surviving spouse of the Contract Owner, the Contract may be continued with
     the surviving spouse as the new Contract Owner;

..    if the Contract Owner is a non-natural person, then the Annuitant will be
     treated as the Contract Owner for purposes of applying the distribution at
     death rules. In addition, a change in the Annuitant on a Contract owned by
     a non-natural person will be treated as the death of the Contract Owner.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY DEATH BENEFITS. Death Benefit amounts are included in income
as follows:

..    if distributed in a lump sum, the amounts are taxed in the same manner as a
     total withdrawal, or

..    if distributed under an Income Plan, the amounts are taxed in the same
     manner as annuity payments.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS. A 10% penalty tax applies to the taxable
amount of any

                                  28 PROSPECTUS




premature distribution from a non-Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally
applies to any distribution made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2.
However, no penalty tax is incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or becoming totally
     disabled,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made under an immediate annuity, or

..    attributable to investment in the Contract before August 14, 1982.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS. With respect to non-Qualified Contracts
using substantially equal periodic payments or immediate annuity payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the Contract Owner's attaining age 59 1/2 would be
subject to a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax
applied. The tax for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty
tax that would have been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the
years in which the exception was used. A material modification does not include
permitted changes described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a
competent tax advisor prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal
periodic payment stream.

TAX FREE EXCHANGES UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 1035. A 1035 exchange is
a tax-free exchange of a non-qualified life insurance contract, endowment
contract or annuity contract into a non-Qualified annuity contract. The contract
owner(s) must be the same on the old and new contract. Basis from the old
contract carries over to the new contract so long as we receive that information
from the relinquishing company. If basis information is never received, we will
assume that all exchanged funds represent earnings and will allocate no cost
basis to them.

PARTIAL EXCHANGES. The IRS has issued a ruling that permits partial exchanges of
annuity contracts. Under this ruling, if you take a withdrawal from a receiving
or relinquishing annuity contract within 24 months of the partial exchange, then
special aggregation rules apply for purposes of determining the taxable amount
of a distribution. The IRS has issued limited guidance on how to aggregate and
report these distributions. The IRS is expected to provide further guidance; as
a result, it is possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as
taxable could be different. Your Contract may not permit partial exchanges.

TAXATION OF OWNERSHIP CHANGES. If you transfer a non-Qualified Contract without
full and adequate consideration to a person other than your spouse (or to a
former spouse incident to a divorce), you will be taxed on the difference
between the Contract Value and the investment in the Contract at the time of
transfer. Any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or pledge) of the
Contract Value is taxed as a withdrawal of such amount or portion and may also
incur the 10% penalty tax.

AGGREGATION OF ANNUITY CONTRACTS. The Code requires that all non-Qualified
deferred annuity contracts issued by Allstate New York (or its affiliates) to
the same Contract Owner during any calendar year be aggregated and treated as
one annuity contract for purposes of determining the taxable amount of a
distribution.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING

Generally, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 10% from all non-annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out of
withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold the required 10% of the taxable
amount. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using the wage
withholding rates for all annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out
of withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold using married with three
exemptions as the default. If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is
provided, we will automatically withhold using single with zero exemptions as
the default. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien.
Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if covered by an income tax treaty
between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's country of residence if the payee
provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number on a fully completed Form W-8BEN.
A U.S. taxpayer identification number is a social security number or an
individual taxpayer identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS
to non-resident alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social
security number. The U.S. does not have a tax treaty with all

                                  29 PROSPECTUS




countries nor do all tax treaties provide an exclusion or lower withholding rate
for annuities.

TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

The income on tax sheltered annuity (TSA) and IRA investments is tax deferred,
and the income from annuities held by such plans does not receive any additional
tax deferral. You should review the annuity features, including all benefits and
expenses, prior to purchasing an annuity as a TSA or IRA. Tax Qualified
Contracts are contracts purchased as or in connection with:

..    Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs) under Code Section 408(b);

..    Roth IRAs under Code Section 408A;

..    Simplified Employee Pension (SEP IRA) under Code Section 408(k);

..    Savings Incentive Match Plans for Employees (SIMPLE IRA) under Code Section
     408(p);

..    Tax Sheltered Annuities under Code Section 403(b);

..    Corporate and Self Employed Pension and Profit Sharing Plans under Code
     Section 401; and

..    State and Local Government and Tax-Exempt Organization Deferred
     Compensation Plans under Code Section 457.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the retirement plans listed above or to modify the Contract
to conform with tax requirements. If you use the Contract within an employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan, the plan may impose different or additional
conditions or limitations on withdrawals, waiver of charges, death benefits,
Payout Start Dates, income payments, and other Contract features. In addition,
adverse tax consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions
and other conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan
administrator for more information. Allstate New York no longer issues deferred
annuities to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

The tax rules applicable to participants with tax qualified annuities vary
according to the type of contract and the terms and conditions of the
endorsement. Adverse tax consequences may result from certain transactions such
as excess contributions, premature distributions, and, distributions that do not
conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules. Allstate New
York can issue an individual retirement annuity on a rollover or transfer of
proceeds from a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer sponsored retirement plan under
which the decedent's surviving spouse is the beneficiary. Allstate New York does
not offer an individual retirement annuity that can accept a transfer of funds
for any other, non-spousal, beneficiary of a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Please refer to your Endorsement for IRAs or 403(b) plans, if applicable, for
additional information on your death settlement options. In the case of certain
qualified plans, the terms of the Qualified Plan Endorsement and the plans may
govern the right to benefits, regardless of the terms of the Contract.

TAXATION OF WITHDRAWALS FROM AN INDIVIDUALLY OWNED TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACT. If
you make a partial withdrawal under a Tax Qualified Contract other than a Roth
IRA, the portion of the payment that bears the same ratio to the total payment
that the investment in the Contract (i.e., nondeductible IRA contributions)
bears to the Contract Value, is excluded from your income. We do not keep track
of nondeductible contributions, and generally all tax reporting of distributions
from Tax Qualified Contracts other than Roth IRAs will indicate that the
distribution is fully taxable.

"Qualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are not included in gross income.
"Qualified distributions" are any distributions made more than five taxable
years after the taxable year of the first contribution to any Roth IRA and which
are:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made to a beneficiary after the Contract Owner's death,

..    attributable to the Contract Owner being disabled, or

..    made for a first time home purchase (first time home purchases are subject
     to a lifetime limit of $10,000).

"Nonqualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are treated as made from
contributions first and are included in gross income only to the extent that
distributions exceed contributions.

REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS. Generally, Tax Qualified Contracts (excluding
Roth IRAs) require minimum distributions upon reaching age 70 1/2. Failure to
withdraw the required minimum distribution will result in a 50% tax penalty on
the shortfall not withdrawn from the Contract. Not all income plans offered
under the Contract satisfy the requirements for minimum distributions. Because
these distributions are required under the Code and the method of calculation is
complex, please see a competent tax advisor.

THE DEATH BENEFIT AND TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Pursuant to the Code and IRS
regulations, an IRA (e.g., traditional IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA and SIMPLE IRA)
may not invest in life insurance contracts. However, an IRA may provide a death
benefit that equals the greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value.
The Contract offers a death benefit that in certain circumstances may exceed the
greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value. We believe that the
Death Benefits offered by your Contract do not constitute life insurance under
these regulations.

It is also possible that certain death benefits that offer enhanced earnings
could be characterized as an incidental death benefit. If the death benefit were
so characterized, this could result in current taxable income to a Contract
Owner. In addition, there are limitations on the amount of incidental death
benefits that may be provided under qualified plans, such as in connection with
a TSA or employer sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the qualified plans listed above.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. A 10%
penalty tax applies to the taxable amount of any premature distribution from a
Tax Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally applies to any distribution
made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2. However, no penalty tax is
incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or total disability,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made after separation from service after age 55 (does not apply to IRAs),

..    made pursuant to an IRS levy,

..    made for certain medical expenses,

..    made to pay for health insurance premiums while unemployed (applies only
     for IRAs),

..    made for qualified higher education expenses (applies only for IRAs), and

..    made for a first time home purchase (up to a $10,000 lifetime limit and
     applies only for IRAs).

During the first 2 years of the individual's participation in a SIMPLE IRA,
distributions that are otherwise subject to the premature distribution penalty,
will be subject to a 25% penalty tax.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. With respect
to Tax Qualified Contracts using substantially equal periodic payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the taxpayer's attaining age 59 1/2 would be subject to
a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax applied. The tax
for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty tax that would have
been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the years in which the
exception was used. A material modification does not include permitted changes
described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a competent tax advisor
prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal periodic payment stream.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Generally, Allstate New York
is required to withhold federal income tax at a rate of 10% from all
non-annuitized distributions that are not considered "eligible rollover
distributions." The customer may elect out of withholding by completing and
signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we will
automatically withhold the required 10% from the taxable amount. In certain
states, if there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also
mandatory. Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 20% on all "eligible rollover distributions" unless you elect to make a
"direct rollover" of such amounts to an IRA or eligible retirement plan.
Eligible rollover distributions generally include all distributions from Tax
Qualified Contracts, including TSAs but excluding IRAs, with the exception of:

..    required minimum distributions, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over a period of at
     least 10 years, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over the life (joint
     lives) of the participant (and beneficiary), or,

..    hardship distributions.

For all annuitized distributions that are not subject to the 20% withholding
requirement, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using
the wage withholding rates. The customer may elect out of withholding by
completing and signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we
will automatically withhold using married with three exemptions as the default.
If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is provided, we will automatically
withhold using single with zero exemptions as the default. In certain states, if
there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien or to
certain other 'foreign persons'. Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if
covered by an income tax treaty between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's
country of residence if the payee provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number
on a fully completed Form W-8BEN. A U.S. taxpayer

                                  31 PROSPECTUS




identification number is a social security number or an individual taxpayer
identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS to non-resident
alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social security number. The
U.S. does not have a tax treaty with all countries nor do all tax treaties
provide an exclusion or lower withholding rate for annuities.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408(b) permits eligible
individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an
Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA). Individual Retirement Annuities are subject
to limitations on the amount that can be contributed and on the time when
distributions may commence. Certain distributions from other types of qualified
retirement plans may be "rolled over" on a tax-deferred basis into an Individual
Retirement Annuity.

ROTH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408A permits eligible
individuals to make nondeductible contributions to an individual retirement
program known as a Roth Individual Retirement Annuity. Roth Individual
Retirement Annuities are subject to limitations on the amount that can be
contributed and on the time when distributions may commence.

Subject to certain limitations, a traditional Individual Retirement Account or
Annuity may be converted or "rolled over" to a Roth Individual Retirement
Annuity. The income portion of a conversion or rollover distribution is taxable
currently, but is exempted from the 10% penalty tax on premature distributions.

ANNUITIES HELD BY INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS (COMMONLY KNOWN AS CUSTODIAL

IRAS). Code Section 408 permits a custodian or trustee of an Individual
Retirement Account to purchase an annuity as an investment of the Individual
Retirement Account. If an annuity is purchased inside of an Individual
Retirement Account, then the Annuitant must be the same person as the beneficial
owner of the Individual Retirement Account.

Generally, the death benefit of an annuity held in an Individual Retirement
Account must be paid upon the death of the Annuitant. However, in most states,
the Contract permits the custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement
Account to continue the Contract in the accumulation phase, with the Annuitant's
surviving spouse as the new Annuitant, if the following conditions are met:

1)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account is the owner
     of the annuity and has the right to the death proceeds otherwise payable
     under the Contract;

2)   The deceased Annuitant was the beneficial owner of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

3)   We receive a complete request for settlement for the death of the
     Annuitant; and

4)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account provides us
     with a signed certification of the following:

(a)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse is the sole beneficiary of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

(b)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse has elected to continue the Individual
     Retirement Account as his or her own Individual Retirement Account; and

(c)  The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account has continued
     the Individual Retirement Account pursuant to the surviving spouse's
     election.

SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION IRA. Code Section 408(k) allows eligible employers
to establish simplified employee pension plans for their employees using
individual retirement annuities. These employers may, within specified limits,
make deductible contributions on behalf of the employees to the individual
retirement annuities. Employers intending to use the Contract in connection with
such plans should seek competent tax advice.

SAVINGS INCENTIVE MATCH PLANS FOR EMPLOYEES (SIMPLE IRA). Code Section 408(p)
allows eligible employers with 100 or fewer employees to establish SIMPLE
retirement plans for their employees using individual retirement annuities. In
general, a SIMPLE IRA consists of a salary deferral program for eligible
employees and matching or nonelective contributions made by employers. Employers
intending to purchase the Contract as a SIMPLE IRA should seek competent tax and
legal advice.

TO DETERMINE IF YOU ARE ELIGIBLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE LISTED IRAS
(TRADITIONAL, ROTH, SEP, OR SIMPLE), PLEASE REFER TO IRS PUBLICATION 590 AND
YOUR COMPETENT TAX ADVISOR.

TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES. Code Section 403(b) provides tax-deferred retirement
savings plans for employees of certain non-profit and educational organizations.
Under Section 403(b), any contract used for a 403(b) plan must provide that
distributions attributable to salary reduction contributions made after
12/31/88, and all earnings on salary reduction contributions, may be made only
on or after the date the employee:

..    attains age 59 1/2,

..    severs employment,

..    dies,

..    becomes disabled, or

..    incurs a hardship (earnings on salary reduction contributions may not be
     distributed on account of hardship).

These limitations do not apply to withdrawals where Allstate New York is
directed to transfer some or all of the Contract Value to another 403(b) plan.
Generally, we do

                                  32 PROSPECTUS




not accept funds in 403(b) contracts that are subject to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

CORPORATE AND SELF-EMPLOYED PENSION AND PROFIT SHARING PLANS.

Section 401(a) of the Code permits corporate employers to establish various
types of tax favored retirement plans for employees. Self-employed individuals
may establish tax favored retirement plans for themselves and their employees
(commonly referred to as "H.R.10" or "Keogh"). Such retirement plans may permit
the purchase of annuity contracts. Allstate New York no longer issues annuity
contracts to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

There are two owner types for contracts intended to qualify under Section
401(a): a qualified plan fiduciary or an annuitant owner.

..    A qualified plan fiduciary exists when a qualified plan trust that is
     intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code is the owner. The
     qualified plan trust must have its own tax identification number and a
     named trustee acting as a fiduciary on behalf of the plan. The annuitant
     should be the person for whose benefit the contract was purchased.

..    An annuitant owner exists when the tax identification number of the owner
     and annuitant are the same, or the annuity contract is not owner by a
     qualified plan trust. The annuitant should be the person for whose benefit
     the contract was purchased.

If a qualified plan fiduciary is the owner of the contract, the qualified plan
must be the beneficiary so that death benefits from the annuity are distributed
in accordance with the terms of the qualified plan. Annuitant owned contracts
require that the beneficiary be the annuitant's spouse (if applicable), which is
consistent with the required IRS language for qualified plans under Section
401(a). A completed Annuitant Owned Qualified Plan Designation of Beneficiary
form is required in order to change the beneficiary of an annuitant owned
Qualified Plan contract.

STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION DEFERRED COMPENSATION

PLANS. Section 457 of the Code permits employees of state and local governments
and tax-exempt organizations to defer a portion of their compensation without
paying current taxes. The employees must be participants in an eligible deferred
compensation plan. In eligible governmental plans, all assets and income must be
held in a trust/ custodial account/annuity contract for the exclusive benefit of
the participants and their beneficiaries. To the extent the Contracts are used
in connection with a non-governmental eligible plan, employees are considered
general creditors of the employer and the employer as owner of the Contract has
the sole right to the proceeds of the Contract. Under eligible 457 plans,
contributions made for the benefit of the employees will not be includible in
the employees' gross income until distributed from the plan. Allstate New York
no longer issues annuity contracts to employer sponsored qualified retirement
plans. Contracts that have been previously sold to State and Local government
and Tax-Exempt organization Deferred Compensation Plans will be administered
consistent with the rules for contracts intended to qualify under Section
401(a).

APPENDIX B MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

The Market Value Adjustment is based on the following:

I = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the applicable Guarantee Period
for the week preceding the establishment of the Guarantee Period.

N = the number of whole and partial years from the date we receive the
withdrawal, transfer, or death benefit request, or from the Payout Start Date,
to the end of the Guarantee Period.

J = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the Guarantee Period for the week
preceding the receipt of the withdrawal, transfer, death benefit, or income
payment request. If a note for a maturity of length N is not available, a
weighted average will be used. If N is one year or less, J will be the 1-year
Treasury Rate.

"Treasury Rate" means the U.S. Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported
in Federal Reserve Board Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment factor is determined from the following formula:
..9 X (I - J) X N

To determine the Market Value Adjustment, we will multiply the Market Value
Adjustment factor by the amount transferred (in excess of the Free Withdrawal
Amount) paid as a death benefit, or applied to an Income Plan, from a Guarantee
Period at any time other than during the 30 day period after such Guarantee
Period expires.

THE CONTRACT AT A GLANCE

The following is a snapshot of the Contract. Please read the remainder of this
prospectus for more information.

FLEXIBLE PAYMENTS   You can purchase a Contract with as little as $3,000 ($2,000
                    for a "QUALIFIED CONTRACT," which is a Contract issued with
                    a qualified plan). You can add to your Contract as often and
                    as much as you like, but each payment must be at least $100,
                    $500 for allocations to the Fixed Account. You must maintain
                    a minimum account size of $1,000.

RIGHT TO CANCEL     You may cancel your Contract within 10 days after receipt
                    (60 days if you are exchanging another contract for the
                    Contract described in this prospectus) ("CANCELLATION
                    PERIOD"). Upon cancellation we will return your purchase
                    payments adjusted to the extent federal or state law permits
                    to reflect the investment experience of any amounts
                    allocated to the Variable Account.

EXPENSES            You will bear the following expenses:

                    .    Total Variable Account annual fees equal to 1.25% of
                         average daily net assets

                    .    Annual contract maintenance charge of $30 (with certain
                         exceptions)

                    .    Withdrawal charges ranging from 0% to 7% of payment
                         withdrawn (with certain exceptions)

                    .    Transfer fee of $10 after 12th transfer in any CONTRACT
                         YEAR (fee currently waived)

                    .    State premium tax (New York currently does not impose
                         one).

                    In addition, each Portfolio pays expenses that you will bear
                    indirectly if you invest in a Variable Sub-Account.

WITHDRAWALS         You may withdraw some or all of your Contract Value at any
                    time during the Accumulation Phase. Full or partial
                    withdrawals also are available under limited circumstances
                    on or after the Payout Start Date.

                    In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a time ($1,000
                    for withdrawals made during the Payout Phase). Withdrawals
                    of earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior
                    to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10% federal
                    tax penalty. A withdrawal charge and MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT
                    also may apply.

HOW THE CONTRACT WORKS

The Contract basically works in two ways.

First, the Contract can help you (we assume you are the CONTRACT OWNER) save for
retirement because you can invest in up to 40 investment alternatives and
generally pay no federal income taxes on any earnings until you withdraw them.
You do this during what we call the "ACCUMULATION PHASE" of the Contract. The
Accumulation Phase begins on the date we issue your Contract (we call that date
the "ISSUE DATE") and continues until the Payout Start Date, which is the date
we apply your money to provide income payments. During the Accumulation Phase,
you may allocate your purchase payments to any combination of the Variable
Sub-Accounts and/or Fixed Accounts. If you invest in the Fixed Accounts, you
will earn a fixed rate of interest that we declare periodically. If you invest
in any of the Variable Sub-Accounts, your investment return will vary up or down
depending on the performance of the corresponding Portfolios.

Second, the Contract can help you plan for retirement because you can use it to
receive retirement income for life and/ or for a pre-set number of years, by
selecting one of the income payment options (we call these "INCOME PLANS")
described on page 26. You receive income payments during what we call the
"PAYOUT PHASE" of the Contract, which begins on the Payout Start Date and
continues until we make the last payment required by the Income Plan you select.
During the Payout Phase, if you select a fixed income payment option, we
guarantee the amount of your payments, which will remain fixed. If you select a
variable income payment option, based on one or more of the Variable
Sub-Accounts, the amount of your payments will vary up or down depending on the
performance of the corresponding Portfolios. The amount of money you accumulate
under your Contract during the Accumulation Phase and apply to an Income Plan
will determine the amount of your income payments during the Payout Phase.

The timeline below illustrates how you might use your Contract.

As the Contract Owner, you exercise all of the rights and privileges provided by
the Contract. If you die, any surviving Contract Owner, or if there is none, the
BENEFICIARY will exercise the rights and privileges provided by the Contract.
See "The Contract." In addition, if you die before the Payout Start Date, we
will pay a death benefit to any surviving Contract Owner or, if none, to your
Beneficiary. See "Death Benefits."

Contract works.

EXPENSE TABLE

The table below lists the expenses that you will bear directly or indirectly
when you buy a Contract. The table and the examples that follow do not reflect
premium taxes because New York currently does not impose premium taxes on
annuities. For more information about Variable Account expenses, see "Expenses,"
below. For more information about Portfolio expenses, please refer to the
accompanying prospectuses for the Portfolios.

(1)  Figures shown in the Table are for the year ended December 31, 2001(except
     as otherwise noted).

(2)  Effective May 1, 2002 the AIM V.I. Growth and Income Fund, AIM V.I.
     International Equity Fund and AIM V.I. Value Fund changed their names to
     the AIM V.I. Core Equity Fund, AIM V.I. International Growth Fund and AIM
     V.I. Premier Equity Fund, respectively.

(3)  Actual "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" were lower because a portion of

                                  8 PROSPECTUS




     the brokerage commissions that the Portfolios paid was used to reduce the
     Portfolios' expenses. In addition, through arrangements with the
     Portfolios' custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash
     balances are used to reduce a portion of the Portfolios' custodian
     expenses. These offsets may be discontinued at any time. Had these offsets
     been taken into account, "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" would have been
     0.64% for Contrafund Portfolio, 0.57% for Equity-Income Portfolio, 0.65%
     for Growth Portfolio and 0.70% for High Income Portfolio.

(4)  The Portfolio's Class 2 distribution plan or "rule 12b-1 plan" is described
     in the Portfolio's prospectus.

(5)  The manager had agreed in advance to make an estimated reduction of 0.08%
     to its management fee to reflect reduced services resulting from the
     Portfolio's investment in a Franklin Templeton money fund. This reduction
     is required by the Portfolio's Board of Trustees and an order of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission. Without this reduction, "Total
     Portfolio Annual Expenses" would have been 1.09%.

(6)  Effective May 1, 2002 the Templeton International Securities Fund - Class 2
     changed its name to the Templeton Foreign Securities Fund - Class 2.

(7)  The manager had agreed in advance to make an estimated reduction of 0.01%
     to its management fee to reflect reduced services resulting from the
     Portfolio's investment in a Franklin Templeton money fund. This reduction
     is required by the Portfolio's Board of Trustees and an order of the
     Securities and Exchange Commission. Without this reduction, "Total
     Portfolio Annual Expenses" would have been 1.16%.

(8)  The Portfolio administration fee is paid indirectly through the management
     fee.

(9)  "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" listed in the table above reflect gross
     ratios prior to any voluntary waivers/ reimbursements of expenses. Goldman
     Sachs Asset Management and Goldman Sachs Asset Management International,
     the investment advisers, have voluntarily agreed to reduce or limit certain
     other expenses (excluding management fees, taxes, interest, brokerage fees,
     litigation, indemnification and other extraordinary expenses) to the extent
     "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" exceed 1.00% for Capital Growth Fund,
     1.00% for CORESM Small Cap Equity Fund, 0.90% for CORESM U.S. Equity Fund
     and 1.35% for International Equity Fund. With these limitations taken into
     consideration, "Management Fees", "Rule 12b-1 Fees", "Other Expenses" and
     "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" were as follows:

                                                                                        Total

Goldman Sachs VIT Capital Growth Fund                 0.75%      N/A      0.25%         1.00%
Goldman Sachs VIT CORE(SM) Small Cap Equity Fund      0.75%      N/A      0.25%         1.00%
Goldman Sachs VIT CORE(SM) U.S. Equity Fund           0.70%      N/A      0.11%         0.81%
Goldman Sachs VIT International Equity Fund           1.00%      N/A      0.35%         1.35%

(10) Each Portfolio has an expense offset arrangement which reduces the
     Portfolios' custodian fee based upon the amount of cash maintained by the
     Portfolio with its custodian and dividend disbursing agent. Each Portfolio
     may enter into other such arrangements and directed brokerage arrangements,
     which would also have the effect of reducing the Portfolios' expenses.
     "Other Expenses" do not take these expense reductions into account, and are
     therefore higher than the actual expenses of the Portfolios. Had these fee
     reductions been taken into account, "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" would
     have been lower and would equal 0.86% for Emerging Growth Series, 0.89% for
     Investors Trust Series, 1.05% for New Discovery Series and 0.89 for
     Research Series.

(11) MFS has contractually agreed, subject to reimbursement, to bear expenses
     for the Portfolio such that "Other Expenses" (after taking into account the
     expense offset arrangement described in note 10 above), do not exceed 0.15%
     of the average daily net assets of the Portfolios during the current fiscal
     year. Without these fee arrangements "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses"
     would have been 1.09%. These contractual fee arrangements will continue at
     least until May 1, 2003, unless changed with the consent of the board of
     trustees which oversee the Portfolios.

(12) Oppenheimer Funds, Inc. (OFI) will reduce the management fee by 0.10% as
     long as the fund's trailing 12-month performance at the end of the quarter
     is in the fifth Lipper peer-group quintile; and by 0.05% as long as it is
     in the fourth quintile. If the fund emerges from a "penalty box" position
     for a quarter but then slips back in the next quarter, OFI will reinstate
     the waiver. The waiver is voluntary and may be terminated by the Manager at
     any time.

(13) "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" listed in the table above reflect gross
     ratios prior to any voluntary waivers/ reimbursements of expenses by the
     adviser. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the management fee was
     reduced to reflect the voluntary waiver of a portion or all of the

                                  9 PROSPECTUS




     management fee and the reimbursement by the Portfolios' adviser to the
     extent "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses" exceed the following percentages:

     Van Kampen UIF Core Plus Fixed Income Portfolio 0.70%; Van Kampen UIF
     Equity Growth Portfolio 0.85%; Van Kampen UIF Global Value Equity Portfolio
     1.15%; Van Kampen UIF Mid Cap Value Portfolio 1.05%; Van Kampen UIF Value
     Portfolio 0.85%. The adviser may terminate this voluntary waiver at any
     time at its sole discretion. After such reductions, the "Management Fees",
     "Rule 12b-1 Fees", "Other Expenses" and "Total Portfolio Annual Expenses"
     were as follows:

                                                                                       Total

..    earned a 5% annual return on your investment, and

..    earned a 5% annual return on your investment, surrendered your Contract, or
     began receiving income payments for a specified period of less than 120
     months, at the end of each time period.

THE EXAMPLE DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY TAXES YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO PAY IF YOU
SURRENDER YOUR CONTRACT OR RECEIVE INCOME PAYMENTS. THE EXAMPLE DOES NOT INCLUDE
DEDUCTIONS FOR PREMIUM TAXES BECAUSE NEW YORK DOES NOT CHARGE PREMIUM TAXES ON
ANNUITIES.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To measure the value of your investment in the Variable Sub-Accounts during the
Accumulation Phase, we use a unit of measure we call the "ACCUMULATION UNIT."
Each Variable Sub-Account has a separate value for its Accumulation Units we
call "ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE." Accumulation Unit Value is analogous to, but not
the same as, the share price of a mutual fund.

No Accumulation Unit Values are reported because as of the date of this
prospectus, no sales of the Contract had occurred.

To obtain more information on each Variable Sub-Account's finances, please refer
to the Variable Account's financial statements contained in the Statement of
Additional Information. The financial statements of ALLSTATE NEW YORK also
appear in the Statement of Additional Information. The Variable Account
Financial Statements do not reflect any assets attributed to the Contracts
offered by this prospectus because no sales of the Contract have occurred as of
the date of this prospectus.

THE CONTRACT

CONTRACT OWNER

The Allstate Provider Variable Annuity is a contract between you, the Contract
Owner, and Allstate New York, a life insurance company. As the Contract Owner,
you may exercise all of the rights and privileges provided to you by the
Contract. That means it is up to you to select or change (to the extent
permitted):

..    the investment alternatives during the Accumulation and Payout Phases,

..    the amount and timing of your purchase payments and withdrawals,

..    the programs you want to use to invest or withdraw money,

..    the income payment plan you want to use to receive retirement income,

..    the Annuitant (either yourself or someone else) on whose life the income
     payments will be based,

..    the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries who will receive the benefits that the
     Contract provides when the last surviving Contract Owner dies, and

..    any other rights that the Contract provides.

If you die, any surviving Contract Owner or, if none, the Beneficiary may
exercise the rights and privileges provided to them by the Contract.

The Contract cannot be jointly owned by both a non-natural person and a natural
person. The maximum age of the oldest Contract Owner cannot exceed 85 as of the
date we receive the completed application.

Changing ownership of this Contract may cause adverse tax consequences and may
not be allowed under qualified plans. Please consult with a competent tax
advisor prior to making a request for a change of Contract Owner.

You can use the Contract with or without a qualified plan. A qualified plan is a
retirement savings plan, such as an IRA or tax-sheltered annuity, that meets the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Qualified plans may limit or modify
your rights and privileges under the Contract. We use the term "QUALIFIED
CONTRACT" to refer to a Contract issued with a qualified plan. See "Qualified
Contracts" on page 33.

ANNUITANT

The Annuitant is the individual whose life determines the amount and duration of
income payments (other than under Income Plans with guaranteed payments for a
specified period). You initially designate an Annuitant in your application. The
maximum age of the oldest Annuitant cannot exceed 85 as of the date we receive
the completed application. If the Contract Owner is a natural person you may
change the Annuitant prior to the Payout Start Date. In our discretion, we may
permit you to designate a joint Annuitant, who is a second person on whose life
income payments depend, on the Payout Start Date.

If the Annuitant dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the new Annuitant will be:

..    the youngest Contract Owner, if living, otherwise

..    the youngest Beneficiary.

BENEFICIARY

The Beneficiary is the person who may elect to receive the death benefit or
become the new Contract Owner subject to the Death of Owner provision if the
sole surviving Contract Owner dies before the Payout Start Date. See "Death
Benefits" on page 27. If the sole surviving Contract Owner dies after the Payout
Start Date, the Beneficiary will receive any guaranteed income payments
scheduled to continue.

You may name one or more Beneficiaries when you apply for a Contract. You may
change or add Beneficiaries at any time by writing to us, unless you have
designated an irrevocable Beneficiary. We will provide a change of Beneficiary
form to be signed and filed with us. Any change will be effective at the time
you sign the written notice, whether or not the Annuitant is living when we
receive the notice. Until we receive your written notice to change a
Beneficiary, we are entitled to rely on the most recent Beneficiary information
in our files. We will not be liable as to any payment or settlement made prior
to

                                  13 PROSPECTUS




receiving the written notice. Accordingly, if you wish to change your
Beneficiary, you should deliver your written notice to us promptly.

If you do not name a Beneficiary or, if the named Beneficiary is no longer
living and there are no other surviving Beneficiaries, the new Beneficiary will
be:

..    your spouse or, if he or she is no longer alive,

..    your surviving children equally, or if you have no surviving children,

..    your estate.

If more than one Beneficiary survives you (or the Annuitant if the Contract
Owner is not a natural person), we will divide the death benefit among your
Beneficiaries according to your most recent written instructions. If you have
not given us written instructions, we will pay the death benefit in equal
amounts to the surviving Beneficiaries.

MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT

Only an Allstate New York officer may approve a change in or waive any provision
of the Contract. Any change or waiver must be in writing. None of our agents has
the authority to change or waive the provisions of the Contract. We may not
change the terms of the Contract without your consent, except to conform the
Contract to applicable law or changes in the law. If a provision of the Contract
is inconsistent with state law, we will follow state law.

ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign any interest in a Contract as collateral or security for a
loan. However, you may assign periodic income payments under the Contract prior
to the Payout Start Date. No Beneficiary may assign benefits under the Contract
until they are due. We will not be bound by any assignment until the assignor
signs it and files it with us. We are not responsible for the validity of any
assignment.

Federal law prohibits or restricts the assignment of benefits under many types
of retirement plans and the terms of such plans may themselves contain
restrictions on assignments. An assignment may also result in taxes and tax
penalties. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR ATTORNEY BEFORE TRYING TO ASSIGN YOUR
CONTRACT.

PURCHASES

MINIMUM PURCHASE PAYMENTS

Your initial purchase payment must be at least $3,000 ($2,000 for a Qualified
Contract). All subsequent purchase payments must be $100 ($500 for allocations
to the Fixed Account) or more. You may make purchase payments at any time prior
to the Payout Start Date. We reserve the right to limit the maximum amount of
purchase payments, or reduce the minimum purchase payment we will accept. We
reserve the right to reject any application.

AUTOMATIC ADDITIONS PROGRAM

You may make subsequent purchase payments of at least $100 ($500 for allocation
to the Fixed Account) by automatically transferring amounts from your bank
account. Please consult with your representative for detailed information.

ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS

At the time you apply for a Contract, you must decide how to allocate your
purchase payments among the investment alternatives. The allocation you specify
on your application will be effective immediately. All allocations must be in
whole percents that total 100% or in whole dollars. You can change your
allocations by notifying us in writing. We reserve the right to limit the
availability of the investment alternatives.

We will allocate your purchase payments to the investment alternatives according
to your most recent instructions on file with us. Unless you notify us in
writing otherwise, we will allocate subsequent purchase payments according to
the allocation for the previous purchase payment. We will effect any change in
allocation instructions at the time we receive written notice of the change in
good order.

We will credit the initial purchase payment that accompanies your completed
application to your Contract within 2 business days after we receive the payment
at our service center. If your application is incomplete, we will ask you to
complete your application within 5 business days. If you do so, we will credit
your initial purchase payment to your Contract within that 5 business day
period. If you do not, we will return your purchase payment at the end of the 5
business day period unless you expressly allow us to hold it until you complete
the application. We will credit subsequent purchase payments to the Contract at
the close of the business day on which we receive the purchase payment at our
service center located in Vernon Hills, Illinois (mailing address: 300 N.
Milwaukee Ave., Vernon Hills, IL 60061.

We are open for business each day Monday through Friday that the New York Stock
Exchange is open for business. We also refer to these days as "VALUATION DATES."
Our business day closes when the New York Stock Exchange closes, usually 4:00
p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time). If we receive your purchase payment
after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date, we
will credit your purchase payment using the Accumulation Unit Values computed on
the next Valuation Date.

RIGHT TO CANCEL

You may cancel the Contract by returning it to us within the Cancellation
Period, which is the 10 day period after

                                  14 PROSPECTUS




you receive the Contract (60 days if you are exchanging another contract for the
Contract described in this prospectus). You may return it by delivering it or
mailing it to us. If you exercise this "RIGHT TO CANCEL," the Contract
terminates and we will pay you the full amount of your purchase payments
allocated to the Fixed Account. Upon cancellation, as permitted by federal or
state law, we will return your purchase payments allocated to the Variable
Account after an adjustment to the extent federal or state law permits to
reflect investment gain or loss that occurred from the date of allocation
through the date of cancellation. If your Contract is qualified under Section
408 of the Internal Revenue Code, we will refund the greater of any purchase
payments or the Contract Value.

CONTRACT VALUE

On the Issue Date, the Contract Value is equal to the initial purchase payment.
Your Contract Value at any other time during the Accumulation Phase is equal to
the sum of the value as of the most recent Valuation Date of your Accumulation
Units in the Variable Sub-Accounts you have selected, plus the value of your
investment in the Fixed Account.

ACCUMULATION UNITS

To determine the number of Accumulation Units of each Variable Sub-Account to
credit to your Contract, we divide (i) the amount of the purchase payment or
transfer you have allocated to a Variable Sub-Account by (ii) the Accumulation
Unit Value of that Variable Sub-Account next computed after we receive your
payment or transfer. For example, if we receive a $10,000 purchase payment
allocated to a Variable Sub-Account when the Accumulation Unit Value for the
Sub-Account is $10, we would credit 1,000 Accumulation Units of that Variable
Sub-Account to your Contract. Withdrawals and transfers from a Variable
Sub-Account would, of course, reduce the number of Accumulation Units of that
Sub-Account allocated to your Contract.

ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE

As a general matter, the Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account
will rise or fall to reflect:

..    changes in the share price of the Portfolio in which the Variable
     Sub-Account invests, and

..    the deduction of amounts reflecting the mortality and expense risk charge,
     administrative expense charge, and any provision for taxes that have
     accrued since we last calculated the Accumulation Unit Value.

We determine contract maintenance charges, withdrawal charges, and transfer fees
(currently waived) separately for each Contract. They do not affect Accumulation
Unit Value. Instead, we obtain payment of those charges and fees by redeeming
Accumulation Units. For details on how we calculate Accumulation Unit Value,
please refer to the Statement of Additional Information.

We determine a separate Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account on
each Valuation Date.

YOU SHOULD REFER TO THE PROSPECTUSES FOR THE PORTFOLIOS THAT ACCOMPANY THIS
PROSPECTUS FOR A DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE ASSETS OF EACH PORTFOLIO ARE VALUED,
SINCE THAT DETERMINATION DIRECTLY BEARS ON THE ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE OF THE
CORRESPONDING VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNT AND, THEREFORE, YOUR CONTRACT VALUE.

                                  15 PROSPECTUS




INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNTS

You may allocate your purchase payments to up to 39 Variable Sub-Accounts. Each
Variable Sub-Account invests in the shares of a corresponding Portfolio. Each
Portfolio has its own investment objective(s) and policies. We briefly describe
the Portfolios below.

For more complete information about each Portfolio, including expenses and risks
associated with the Portfolio, please refer to the accompanying prospectuses for
the Portfolios. You should carefully review the Portfolio prospectuses before
allocating amounts to the Variable Sub-Accounts.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE FIXED ACCOUNT OPTIONS

You may allocate all or a portion of your purchase payments to the Fixed Account
Options. We will credit a minimum annual interest rate of 3% to money you
allocate to any of the Fixed Account Options. Please consult with your
representative for current information. The Fixed Account consists of our
general account assets other than those in segregated asset accounts. We have
sole discretion to invest the assets of the Fixed Account, subject to applicable
law. Any money you allocate to the Fixed Account Option does not entitle you to
share in the investment experience of the Fixed Account.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTIONS

SIX MONTH DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION. Under this Option, you may
establish a Dollar Cost Averaging Program by allocating purchase payments to The
Six Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Option ("Six Month DCA Fixed
Account Option"). We will credit interest to purchase payments you allocate to
this Option for six months at the current rate in effect at the time of
allocation. We will credit interest daily at a rate that will compound at the
annual interest rate we guaranteed at the time of allocation.

We will follow your instructions in transferring amounts monthly from the Six
Month DCA Fixed Account Option. You must transfer all of your money out of the
Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option to the Variable Sub-Accounts in six equal
monthly installments. If you discontinue the Six Month Dollar Cost Averaging
Option before the end of the transfer period, we will transfer the remaining
balance in this Option to the Dreyfus VIF Money Market Variable Sub-Account
unless you request a different investment alternative. No transfers are
permitted into the Six Month DCA Fixed Account.

For each purchase payment allocated to this Option, your first monthly transfer
will occur at the end of the first month following such purchase payment. If we
do not receive an allocation from you within one month of the date of payment,
we will transfer the payment plus associated interest to the Dreyfus VIF Money
Market Variable Sub-Account in equal monthly installments. Transfering Account
Value to the Money Market Variable Sub-Account in this manner may not be
consistent with the theory of Dollar Cost Averaging described on page 23.

TWELVE MONTH DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION. Under this Option, you
may establish a Dollar Cost Averaging Program by allocating purchase payments to
The Twelve Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Option ("Twelve Month DCA
Fixed Account Option"). We will credit interest to purchase payments you
allocate to this Option for twelve months at the current rate in effect at the
time of allocation. We will credit interest daily at a rate that will compound
at the annual interest rate we guaranteed at the time of allocation.

We will follow your instructions in transferring amounts monthly from the Twelve
Month DCA Fixed Account Option. You must transfer all of your money out of the
Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account Option to the Variable Sub-Accounts in twelve
equal monthly installments. If you discontinue the Twelve Month Dollar Cost
Averaging Option before the end of the transfer period, we will transfer the
remaining balance in this Option to the Dreyfus VIF Money Market Variable
Sub-Account unless you request a different investment alternative. No transfers
are permitted into the Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account.

For each purchase payment allocated to this Option, your first monthly transfer
will occur at the end of the first month following such purchase payment. If we
do not receive an allocation from you within one month of the date of payment,
we will transfer the payment plus associated interest to the Dreyfus VIF Money
Market Variable Sub-Account in equal monthly installments. Transferring Account
Value to the Money Market Variable Sub-Account in this manner may not be
consistent with the theory of dollar cost averaging described on page 23.

At the end of the transfer period, any nominal amounts remaining in the Six
Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account or the Twelve Month Dollar Cost
Averaging Fixed Account will be allocated to the Dreyfus VIF Money Market
Variable Sub-Account.

Transfers out of the Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Options do not count
towards the 12 transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee.

INVESTMENT RISK. We bear the investment risk for all amounts allocated to the
Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option and the Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account
Option. That is because we guarantee the current interest rates we credit to the
amounts you allocate to either of these Options, which will never be less than
the minimum guaranteed rate in the Contract. Currently, we determine, in our
sole discretion, the amount of interest credited in excess of the guaranteed
rate.

We may declare more than one interest rate for different monies based upon the
date of allocation to the Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option and the Twelve
Month DCA Fixed Account Option. For current interest rate information, please
contact your representative or our customer support unit at 1-800-692-4682.

GUARANTEE PERIODS

 Under this option, each payment or transfer allocated to the Fixed Account
earns interest at a specified rate that we guarantee for a period of years we
call a GUARANTEE PERIOD. Guarantee Periods may range from 1 to 10 years. We are

                                  19 PROSPECTUS




currently offering Guarantee Periods of 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 years in length. In
the future we may offer Guarantee Periods of different lengths or stop offering
some Guarantee Periods. You select one or more Guarantee Periods for each
purchase payment or transfer. If you do not select the Guarantee Period for a
purchase payment or transfer, we will assign the shortest Guarantee Period
available under the Contract for such payment or transfer.

Each payment or transfer allocated to a Guarantee Period must be at least $500.
We reserve the right to limit the number of additional purchase payments that
you may allocate to the Fixed Account. Please consult with your sales
representative for more information.

INTEREST RATES. We will tell you what interest rates and Guarantee Periods we
are offering at a particular time. We may declare different interest rates for
Guarantee Periods of the same length that begin at different times. We will not
change the interest rate that we credit to a particular allocation until the end
of the relevant Guarantee Period.

We have no specific formula for determining the rate of interest that we will
declare initially or in the future. We will set those interest rates based on
investment returns available at the time of the determination. In addition, we
may consider various other factors in determining interest rates including
regulatory and tax requirements, our sales commission and administrative
expenses, general economic trends, and competitive factors. We determine the
interest rates to be declared in our sole discretion. We can neither predict nor
guarantee what those rates will be in the future. For current interest rate
information, please contact your sales representative or ALLSTATE NEW YORK at
1-800-692-4682. The interest rate will never be less than the minimum guaranteed
amount stated in the Contract.

HOW WE CREDIT INTEREST. We will credit interest daily to each amount allocated
to a Guarantee Period at a rate that compounds to the effective annual interest
rate that we declared at the beginning of the applicable Guarantee Period.

The following example illustrates how a purchase payment allocated to the Fixed
Account would grow, given an assumed Guarantee Period and effective annual
interest rate:

TOTAL INTEREST CREDITED DURING GUARANTEE PERIOD = $2,461.82 ($12,461.82-$10,000)

This example assumes no withdrawals during the entire 5 year Guarantee Period.
If you were to make a withdrawal, you may be required to pay a withdrawal
charge. In addition, the amount withdrawn may be increased or decreased by a
Market Value Adjustment that reflects changes in interest rates since the time
you invested the amount withdrawn. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10%
federal tax penalty. The hypothetical interest rate is for illustrative purposes
only and is not intended to predict future interest rates to be declared under
the Contract. Actual interest rates declared for any given Guarantee Period may
be more or less than shown above but will never be less than the guaranteed
minimum rate stated in the Contract.

                                  20 PROSPECTUS




RENEWALS. At least 15 but not more than 45 days prior to the end of each
Guarantee Period, we will mail you a notice asking you what to do with your
money, including the accrued interest. During the 30-day period after the end of
the Guarantee Period, you may:

1) take no action. We will automatically apply your money to a new Guarantee
Period of the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will begin
on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. The new interest rate will be our
then current declared rate for a Guarantee Period of that length; or

2) Instruct us to apply your money to one or more new Guarantee Periods of your
choice. The new Guarantee Period(s) will begin on the day the previous Guarantee
Period ends. The new interest rate will be our then current declared rate for
those Guarantee Periods; or

3) Instruct us to transfer all or a portion of your money to one or more
Variable Sub-Accounts. We will effect the transfer on the day we receive your
instructions. We will not adjust the amount transferred to include a Market
Value Adjustment. We will pay interest from the day the Guarantee Period expired
until the date of the transfer. The interest will be the rate for the Shortest
Guarantee Period then being offered; or

4) Withdraw all or a portion of your money. You may be required to pay a
withdrawal charge, but we will not adjust the amount withdrawn to include a
Market Value Adjustment. You may also be required to pay premium taxes and
withholding (if applicable). The amount withdrawn will be deemed to have been
withdrawn on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. Unless you specify
otherwise, amounts not withdrawn will be applied to a new Guarantee Period of
the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will begin on the day
the previous Guarantee Period ends. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as
ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an
additional 10% federal tax penalty.

Under our automatic laddering program ("Automatic Laddering Program"), you may
choose, in advance, to use Guarantee Periods of the same length for all
renewals. You can select this Program at any time during the Accumulation Phase,
including on the Issue Date. We will apply renewals to Guarantee Periods of the
selected length until you direct us in writing to stop. We may stop offering
this Program at any time. For additional information on the Automatic Laddering
Program, please call our customer service center at 1-800-692-4682.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT. All withdrawals in excess of the PREFERRED WITHDRAWAL
AMOUNT, and transfers from a Guarantee Period, other than those taken during the
30 day period after such Guarantee Period expires, are subject to a Market Value
Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment also applies when you apply amounts
currently invested in a Guarantee Period to an Income Plan (unless paid or
applied during the 30 day period after such Guarantee Period expires). A
positive Market Value Adjustment will apply to amounts currently invested in a
Guarantee Period that are paid out as death benefits. We will not apply a Market
Value Adjustment to a transfer you make as part of a Dollar Cost Averaging
Program. We also will not apply a Market Value Adjustment to a withdrawal you
make:

..    within the Preferred Withdrawal Amount as described on page 24, or

..    to satisfy the IRS minimum distribution rules for the Contract.

We apply the Market Value Adjustment to reflect changes in interest rates from
the time you first allocate money to a Guarantee Period to the time it is
removed from that Guarantee Period. We calculate the Market Value Adjustment by
comparing the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the Guarantee Period at its
inception to the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period when you remove your money. "TREASURY RATE" means the U.S.
Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported in Federal Reserve Bulletin
Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment may be positive or negative, depending on changes in
interest rates. As such, you bear the investment risk associated with changes in
interest rates. If interest rates increase significantly, the Market Value
Adjustment and any withdrawal charge, premium taxes, and income tax withholding
(if applicable) could reduce the amount you receive upon full withdrawal of your
Contract Value to an amount that is less than the purchase payment plus interest
at the minimum guaranteed interest rate under the Contract.

Generally, if the Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee
Period is higher than the applicable current Treasury Rate for a period equal to
the time remaining in the Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment
will result in a higher amount payable to you or transferred. Conversely, if the
Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee Period is lower than
the applicable Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment will result in a lower amount
payable to you or transferred.

For example, assume that you purchase a Contract and you select an initial
Guarantee Period of 5 years and the 5 year Treasury Rate for that duration is
4.50%. Assume that at the end of 3 years, you make a partial withdrawal. If, at
that later time, the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.20%, then the Market
Value Adjustment will be positive, which will result in an increase in the
amount payable to you. Conversely, if the current 2 year Treasury

                                  21 PROSPECTUS




Rate is 4.80%, then the Market Value Adjustment will be negative, which will
result in a decrease in the amount payable to you.

The formula for calculating Market Value Adjustments is set forth in Appendix A
to this prospectus, which also contains additional examples of the application
of the Market Value Adjustment.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: TRANSFERS

TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE

During the Accumulation Phase, you may transfer Contract Value among the
investment alternatives at any time. The minimum amount that you may transfer
into a Guarantee Period is $500. You may request transfers in writing on a form
that we provided or by telephone according to the procedure described below. We
currently do not assess, but reserve the right to assess, a $10 charge on each
transfer in excess of 12 per Contract Year. We treat transfers to or from more
than one Portfolio on the same day as one transfer. Transfers you make as part
of a Dollar Cost Averaging Program or Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program do
not count against the 12 free transfers per Contract Year.

We will process transfer requests that we receive before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
(3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit
Values for that Date. We will process requests completed after 4:00 p.m. Eastern
Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit
Values for the next Valuation Date. The Contract permits us to defer transfers
from the Fixed Account for up to 6 months from the date we receive your request.
If we decide to postpone transfers from the Fixed Account for 10 days or more,
we will pay interest as required by applicable law. Any interest would be
payable from the date we receive the transfer request to the date we make the
transfer.

If you transfer an amount from a Guarantee Period other than during the 30 day
period after such Guarantee Period expires, we will increase or decrease the
amount by a Market Value Adjustment. If any transfer reduces your value in such
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we will treat the request as a transfer of
the entire value in such Guarantee Period.

We reserve the right to waive any transfer fees and restrictions.

TRANSFERS DURING THE PAYOUT PHASE

During the Payout Phase, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts
to change the relative weighting of the Variable Sub-Accounts on which your
variable income payments will be based. In addition, you will have a limited
ability to make transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the
proportion of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may
not, however, convert any portion of your right to receive fixed income payments
into variable income payments.

You may not make any transfers for the first 6 months after the Payout Start
Date. Thereafter, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts or make
transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the proportion of your
income payments consisting of fixed income payments. Your transfers must be at
least 6 months apart.

TELEPHONE TRANSFERS

You may make transfers by telephone by calling 1-800-692-4682, if you first send
us a completed authorization form. The cut off time for telephone transfer
requests is 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time). In the event that
the New York Stock Exchange closes early, i.e., before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
(3:00 p.m. Central Time), or in the event that the Exchange closes early for a
period of time but then reopens for trading on the same day, we will process
telephone transfer requests as of the close of the Exchange on that particular
day. We will not accept telephone requests received at any telephone number
other than the number that appears in this paragraph or received after the close
of trading on the Exchange.

We may suspend, modify or terminate the telephone transfer privilege at any time
without notice.

We use procedures that we believe provide reasonable assurance that the
telephone transfers are genuine. For example, we tape telephone conversations
with persons purporting to authorize transfers and request identifying
information. Accordingly, we disclaim any liability for losses resulting from
allegedly unauthorized telephone transfers. However, if we do not take
reasonable steps to help ensure that a telephone authorization is valid, we may
be liable for such losses.

EXCESSIVE TRADING LIMITS

We reserve the right to limit transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts in any
Contract year, or to refuse any Variable Sub-Account transfer request, if:

..    we believe, in our sole discretion, that excessive trading by such Contract
     Owner or Owners, or a specific transfer request or group of transfer
     requests, may have a detrimental effect on the Accumulation Unit Values of
     any Variable Sub-Account or the share prices of the corresponding Portfolio
     or would be to the disadvantage of other Contract owners; or

..    we are informed by one or more of the Portfolios that they intend to
     restrict the purchase or redemption of Portfolio shares because of
     excessive trading or because they believe that a specific transfer or
     groups of transfers would have a detrimental effect on the prices of
     Portfolio shares.

We may apply the restrictions in any manner reasonably designed to prevent
transfers that we consider disadvantageous to other Contract Owners.

                                  22 PROSPECTUS




                          DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM

Through the Dollar Cost Averaging Program, you may automatically transfer a set
amount every month during the Accumulation Phase from any Variable Sub-Account,
or the the Six Month DCA Fixed Account, or the Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account
Option, to any other Variable Sub-Account. You may not use dollar cost averaging
to transfer amounts to the Fixed Account.

We will not charge a transfer fee for transfers made under this Program, nor
will such transfers count against the 12 transfers you can make each Contract
Year without paying a transfer fee. In addition, we will not apply the Market
Value Adjustment to these transfers.

The theory of dollar cost averaging is that if purchases of equal dollar amounts
are made at fluctuating prices, the aggregate average cost per unit will be less
than the average of the unit prices on the same purchase dates. However,
participation in this Program does not assure you of a greater profit from your
purchases under the Program nor will it prevent or necessarily reduce losses in
a declining market.

Call or write us for instructions on how to enroll.

AUTOMATIC PORTFOLIO REBALANCING PROGRAM

Once you have allocated your money among the Variable Sub-Accounts, the
performance of each Sub-Account may cause a shift in the percentage you
allocated to each Sub-Account. If you select our Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing
Program, we will automatically rebalance the Contract Value in each Variable
Sub-Account and return it to the desired percentage allocations. Money you
allocate to the Fixed Account will not be included in the rebalancing.

We will rebalance your account each quarter according to your instructions. We
will transfer amounts among the Variable Sub-Accounts to achieve the percentage
allocations you specify. You can change your allocations at any time by
contacting us in writing or by telephone. The new allocation will be effective
with the first rebalancing that occurs after we receive your request. We are not
responsible for rebalancing that occurs prior to receipt of your request.

Example:

Assume that you want your initial purchase payment split among 2 Variable
Sub-Accounts. You want 40% to be in the AIM V.I. Balanced Variable Sub-Account
and 60% to be in the Fidelity VIP Growth Variable Sub-Account. Over the next 2
months the bond market does very well while the stock market performs poorly. At
the end of the first quarter, the AIM V.I. Balanced Variable Sub-Account now
represents 50% of your holdings because of its increase in value. If you choose
to have your holdings rebalanced quarterly, on the first day of the next quarter
we would sell some of your units in the AIM V.I. Balanced Variable Sub-Account
and use the money to buy more units in the Fidelity VIP Growth Variable
Sub-Account so that the percentage allocations would again be 40% and 60%
respectively.

The Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program is available only during the
Accumulation Phase. The transfers made under the Program do not count towards
the 12 transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee, and are not subject
to a transfer fee.

Portfolio rebalancing is consistent with maintaining your allocation of
investments among market segments, although it is accomplished by reducing your
Contract Value allocated to the better performing segments.

You may not use the Dollar Cost Averaging and Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing
programs at the same time.

EXPENSES

As a Contract Owner, you will bear, directly or indirectly, the charges and
expenses described below.

CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE

During the Accumulation Phase, on each Contract Anniversary, we will deduct a
$30 contract maintenance charge from your Contract Value invested in each
Variable Sub-Account in proportion to the amount invested. We also will deduct a
full contract maintenance charge if you withdraw your entire Contract Value,
unless your Contract qualifies for a waiver, described below. During the Payout
Phase, we will deduct the charge proportionately from each income payment.

The charge is for the cost of maintaining each Contract and the Variable
Account. Maintenance costs include expenses we incur in billing and collecting
purchase payments; keeping records; processing death claims, cash withdrawals,
and policy changes; proxy statements; calculating Accumulation Unit Values and
income payments; and issuing reports to Contract Owners and regulatory agencies.
We cannot increase the charge. We will waive this charge if:

..    total purchase payments equal $50,000 or more, or

..    all of your money is allocated to the Fixed Account on a Contract
     Anniversary.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE

We deduct a mortality and expense risk charge daily at an

                                  23 PROSPECTUS




annual rate of 1.15% of the average daily net assets you have invested in the
Variable Sub-Accounts. The mortality and expense risk charge is for all the
insurance benefits available with your Contract (including our guarantee of
annuity rates and the death benefits), for certain expenses of the Contract, and
for assuming the risk (expense risk) that the current charges will be sufficient
in the future to cover the cost of administering the Contract. If the charges
under the Contract are not sufficient, then we will bear the loss.

We guarantee the mortality and expense risk charge and we cannot increase it. We
assess the mortality and expense risk charge during both the Accumulation Phase
and the Payout Phase.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE

We deduct an administrative expense charge daily at an annual rate of 0.10% of
the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts. We
intend this charge to cover actual administrative expenses that exceed the
revenues from the contract maintenance charge. There is no necessary
relationship between the amount of administrative charge imposed on a given
Contract and the amount of expenses that may be attributed to that Contract. We
assess this charge each day during the Accumulation Phase and the Payout Phase.
We guarantee that we will not raise this charge.

TRANSFER FEE

We do not currently impose a fee upon transfers among the investment
alternatives. However, we reserve the right to charge $10 per transfer after the
12th transfer in each Contract Year. We will not charge a transfer fee on
transfers that are part of a Dollar Cost Averaging or Automatic Portfolio
Rebalancing Program.

WITHDRAWAL CHARGE

We may assess a withdrawal charge of up to 7% of the purchase payment(s) you
withdraw in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market
Value Adjustment. The charge declines by 1% annually to 0% after 7 complete
years from the day we receive the purchase payment being withdrawn. A schedule
showing how the charge declines appears on page 6. During each Contract Year,
you can withdraw up to 15% of purchase payments without paying the charge.
Unused portions of this 15% "PREFERRED WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT" are not carried
forward to future Contract Years.

We determine the withdrawal charge by:

..    multiplying the percentage corresponding to the number of complete years
     since we received the purchase payment being withdrawn, times

..    the part of each purchase payment withdrawal that is in excess of the
     Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment.

We will deduct withdrawal charges, if applicable, from the amount paid. For
purposes of the withdrawal charge, we will treat withdrawals as coming from the
oldest purchase payments first. However, for federal income tax purposes, please
note that withdrawals are considered to have come first from earnings in the
Contract, which means you pay taxes on the earnings portion of your withdrawal.

We do not apply a withdrawal charge in the following situations:

..    on the Payout Start Date (a withdrawal charge may apply if you elect to
     receive income payments for a specified period of less than 120 months);

..    the death of the Contract Owner or Annuitant (unless the Settlement Value
     is used);

..    withdrawals taken to satisfy IRS minimum distribution rules for the
     Contract; or

..    withdrawals made after all purchase payments have been withdrawn.

We use the amounts obtained from the withdrawal charge to pay sales commissions
and other promotional or distribution expenses associated with marketing the
Contracts. To the extent that the withdrawal charge does not cover all sales
commissions and other promotional or distribution expenses, we may use any of
our corporate assets, including potential profit which may arise from the
mortality and expense risk charge or any other charges or fee described above,
to make up any difference.

Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age
59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty. Withdrawals may
also be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. You should consult your own tax
counsel or other tax advisers regarding any withdrawals.

PREMIUM TAXES

Currently, we do not make deductions for premium taxes under the Contract
because New York does not charge premium taxes on annuities. We may deduct taxes
that may be imposed in the future from purchase payments or the Contract Value
when the tax is incurred or at a later time.

DEDUCTION FOR VARIABLE ACCOUNT INCOME TAXES

We are not currently making a provision for such taxes. In the future, however,
we may make a provision for taxes if we determine, in our sole discretion, that
we will incur a tax as a result of the operation of the Variable Account. We
will deduct for any taxes we incur as a result of the operation of the Variable
Account, whether or not we previously made a provision for taxes and whether or
not it was sufficient. Our status under the Internal Revenue Code is briefly
described in the Taxes section.

OTHER EXPENSES

Each Portfolio deducts advisory fees and other expenses from its assets. You
indirectly bear the charges and expenses of the Portfolios whose shares are held
by the

                                  24 PROSPECTUS




Variable Sub-Accounts. These fees and expenses are described in the accompanying
prospectuses for the Portfolios. For a summary of these charges and expenses,
see pages 8-10. We may receive compensation from the investment advisers or
administrators of the Portfolios for administrative services we provide to the
Portfolios.

ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

You can withdraw some or all of your Contract Value at any time prior to the
Payout Start Date. Full or partial withdrawals also are available under limited
circumstances on or after the Payout Start Date. See "Income Plans" on page 25.

The amount payable upon withdrawal is the Contract Value next computed after we
receive the request for a withdrawal at our customer service center, adjusted by
any Market Value Adjustment, less any withdrawal charges, contract maintenance
charges, income tax withholding, and any premium taxes. We will pay withdrawals
from the Variable Account within 7 days of receipt of the request, subject to
postponement in certain circumstances.

You can withdraw money from the Variable Account or the Fixed Account. To
complete a partial withdrawal from the Variable Account, we will cancel
Accumulation Units in an amount equal to the withdrawal and any applicable
withdrawal charge and premium taxes.

Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age
59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

You must name the investment alternative from which you are taking the
withdrawal. If none is named, then the withdrawal request is incomplete and
cannot be honored.

In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a time. You also may withdraw a
lesser amount if you are withdrawing your entire interest in a Variable
Sub-Account.

If you request a total withdrawal, you must return your Contract to us.

POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS

We may postpone the payment of any amounts due from the Variable Account under
the Contract if:

1. The New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than usual weekends or
holidays, or trading on the Exchange is otherwise restricted;

2. An emergency exists as defined by the SEC; or

3. The SEC permits delay for your protection.

In addition, we may delay payments or transfers from the Fixed Account for up to
6 months or a shorter period if required by law. If we delay payment or transfer
for 10 business days or more, we will pay interest as required by law. Any
interest would be payable from the date we receive the withdrawal request to the
date we make the payment or transfer.

SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM

You may choose to receive systematic withdrawal payments on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis at any time prior to the Payout Start
Date. The minimum amount of each systematic withdrawal is $50. At our
discretion, systematic withdrawals may not be offered in conjunction with the
Dollar Cost Averaging Program or the Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program.

Depending on fluctuations in the net asset value of the Variable Sub-Accounts
and the value of the Fixed Account, systematic withdrawals may reduce or even
exhaust the Contract Value. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary income
and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10% federal
tax penalty. Please consult your tax advisor before taking any withdrawal.

We will make systematic withdrawal payments to you or your designated payee. We
may modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program and charge a processing
fee for the service. If we modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program,
existing systematic withdrawal payments will not be affected.

MINIMUM CONTRACT VALUE

If your request for a partial withdrawal would reduce the amount in any
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we will treat it as a request to withdraw
the entire amount invested in such Guarantee Period. If your request for a
partial withdrawal would reduce your Contract Value to less than $1,000, we may
treat it as a request to withdraw your entire Contract Value. Your Contract will
terminate if you withdraw all of your Contract Value. We will, however, ask you
to confirm your withdrawal request before terminating your Contract.

Before terminating any Contract whose value has been reduced by withdrawals to
less than $1,000, we will inform you in writing of our intention to terminate
your Contract and give you ast least 30 days in which to make an additional
purchase payment to restore your Contract's value to the contractual minimum of
$1,000. If we terminate your Contract, we will distribute to you its Contract
Value, adjusted by any applicable Market Value Adjustment, less withdrawal and
other charges and applicable taxes.

                                  25 PROSPECTUS




INCOME PAYMENTS

PAYOUT START DATE

The Payout Start Date is the day that we apply your money to an Income Plan. The
Payout Start Date must be no later than the day the Annuitant reaches age 90, or
the 10th Contract Anniversary, if later.

You may change the Payout Start Date at any time by notifying us in writing of
the change at least 30 days before the scheduled Payout Start Date. Absent a
change, we will use the Payout Start Date stated in your Contract.

INCOME PLANS

An "Income Plan" is a series of payments on a scheduled basis to you or to
another person designated by you. You may choose and change your choice of
Income Plan until 30 days before the Payout Start Date. If you do not select an
Income Plan, we will make income payments in accordance with Income Plan 1 with
guaranteed payments for 10 years if you have designated only one Annuitant or
Income Plan 2 with guaranteed payments for 10 years if you have desginated joint
Annuitants. After the Payout Start Date, you may not make withdrawals (except as
described below) or change your choice of Income Plan.

Three Income Plans are available under the Contract. Each is available to
provide:

..    fixed income payments;

..    variable income payments; or

..    a combination of the two.

The three Income Plans are:

INCOME PLAN 1 - LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under this plan, we make
periodic income payments for at least as long as the Annuitant lives. If the
Annuitant dies before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we
will continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required
by the Contract.

INCOME PLAN 2 - JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under
this plan, we make periodic income payments for at least as long as either the
Annuitant or the joint Annuitant is alive. If both the Annuitant and the joint
Annuitant die before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we will
continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required by
the Contract.

INCOME PLAN 3 - GUARANTEED PAYMENTS FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD (5 YEARS TO 30
YEARS). Under this plan, we make periodic income payments for the period you
have chosen. These payments do not depend on the Annuitant's life. Income
payments for less than 120 months may be subject to a withdrawal charge. We will
deduct the mortality and expense risk charge from the Variable Sub-Account
assets that support variable income payments even though we may not bear any
mortality risk.

The length of any guaranteed payment period under your selected Income Plan
generally will affect the dollar amounts of each income payment. As a general
rule, longer guarantee periods result in lower income payments, all other things
being equal. For example, if you choose an Income Plan with payments that depend
on the life of the Annuitant but with no minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments, the income payments generally will be greater than the income payments
made under the same Income Plan with a minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments.

If you choose Income Plan 1 or 2, or, if available, another Income Plan with
payments that continue for the life of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant, we may
require proof of age and sex of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant before starting
income payments, and proof that the Annuitant or joint Annuitant is alive before
we make each payment.

Please note that under such Income Plans, if you elect to take no minimum
guaranteed payments, it is possible that the payee could receive only 1 income
payment if the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant both die before the second
income payment, or only 2 income payments if they die before the third income
payment, and so on.

Generally, you may not make withdrawals after the Payout Start Date. One
exception to this rule applies if you are receiving variable income payments
that do not depend on the life of the Annuitant (such as under Income Plan 3).
In that case you may terminate all or part of the Variable Account portion of
the income payments at any time and receive a lump sum equal to the present
value of the remaining variable income payments associated with the amount
withdrawn. To determine the present value of any remaining variable income
payments being withdrawn, we use a discount rate equal to the assumed annual
investment rate that we use to compute such variable income payments. The
minimum amount you may withdraw under this feature is $1,000. A withdrawal
charge may apply. You will also have a limited ability to make transfers from
the Variable Account portion of the income payments to increase the proportion
of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may not,
however, convert any portion of your right to receive fixed income payments into
variable income payments. We deduct applicable premium taxes, if any, from the
Contract Value at the Payout Start Date. New York does not currently impose a
premium tax.

We may make other Income Plans available. You may obtain information about them
by writing or calling us.

You must apply at least the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the Payout
Start Date to fixed income payments. If you wish to apply any portion of your
Fixed

                                  26 PROSPECTUS




Account balance to provide variable income payments, you should plan ahead and
transfer that amount to the Variable Sub-Accounts prior to the Payout Start
Date. If you do not tell us how to allocate your Contract Value among fixed and
variable income payments, we will apply your Contract Value in the Variable
Account to variable income payments and your Contract Value in the Fixed Account
to fixed income payments.

We will apply your Contract Value, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment, less
applicable taxes to your Income Plan on the Payout Start Date. If the Contract
Value is less than $2,000 or not enough to provide an initial payment of at
least $20, and state law permits, we may:

..    terminate the Contract and pay you the Contract Value, adjusted by any
     Market Value Adjustment and less any applicable taxes, in a lump sum
     instead of the periodic payments you have chosen, or

..    reduce the frequency of your payments so that each payment will be at least
     $20.

VARIABLE INCOME PAYMENTS

The amount of your variable income payments depends upon the investment results
of the Variable Sub-Accounts you select, the premium taxes you pay, the age and
sex of the Annuitant, and the Income Plan you choose. We guarantee that the
payments will not be affected by (a) actual mortality experience and (b) the
amount of our administration expenses.

We cannot predict the total amount of your variable income payments. Your
variable income payments may be more or less than your total purchase payments
because (a) variable income payments vary with the investment results of the
underlying Portfolio and (b) the Annuitant could live longer or shorter than we
expect based on the tables we use.

In calculating the amount of the periodic payments in the annuity tables in the
Contract, we assumed an annual investment rate of 3%. If the actual net
investment return of the Variable Sub-Accounts you choose is less than this
assumed investment rate, then the dollar amount of your variable income payments
will decrease. The dollar amount of your variable income payments will increase,
however, if the actual net investment return exceeds the assumed investment
rate. The dollar amount of the variable income payments stays level if the net
investment return equals the assumed investment rate.

Please refer to the Statement of Additional Information for more detailed
information as to how we determine variable income payments.

FIXED INCOME PAYMENTS

We guarantee income payment amounts derived from the Fixed Account for the
duration of the Income Plan. We calculate the fixed income payments by:

1. adjusting the portion of the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the
Payout Start Date by any applicable Market Value Adjustment;

2. deducting any applicable premium tax; and

3. applying the resulting amount to the greater of (a) the appropriate value
from the income payment table in your Contract or (b) such other value as we are
offering at that time.

We may defer making fixed income payments for a period of up to 6 months or such
shorter time as state law may require. If we defer payments for 10 business days
or more, we will pay interest as required by law from the date we receive the
withdrawal request to the date we make payment.

CERTAIN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Contracts offered by this prospectus contain income payment tables that
provide for different payments to men and women of the same age. However, we
reserve the right to use income payment tables that do not distinguish on the
basis of sex to the extent permitted by law. In certain employment-related
situations, employers are required by law to use the same income payment tables
for men and women. Accordingly, if the Contract is to be used in connection with
an employment-related retirement or benefit plan, you should consult with legal
counsel as to whether the purchase of a Contract is appropriate. For qualified
plans, where it is appropriate, we may use income payment tables that do not
distinguish on the basis of sex.

DEATH BENEFITS

We will pay a death benefit if, prior to the Payout Start Date:

1. any Contract owner dies or,

2. the Annuitant dies, if the Contract Owner is not a natural person.

We will pay the death benefit to the new Contract Owner who is determined
immediately after the death. The new Contract Owner would be a surviving
Contract Owner or, if none, the Beneficiary(ies).

DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT

Prior to the Payout Start Date, the death benefit is equal to the greatest of:

1. the Contract Value as of the date we determine the death benefit, or

2. the SETTLEMENT VALUE (that is, the amount payable on a full withdrawal of
Contract Value) on the date we determine the death benefit, or

3. the Contract Value on the DEATH BENEFIT

                                  27 PROSPECTUS




ANNIVERSARY immediately preceding the date we determine the death benefit,
adjusted by any purchase payments, withdrawal adjustment as defined below, and
charges made since that Death Benefit Anniversary. A "Death Benefit Anniversary"
is every seventh Contract Anniversary beginning with the Issue Date. For
example, the Issue Date, 7th and 14th Contract Anniversaries are the first three
Death Benefit Anniversaries, or

4. the greatest of the Anniversary Values as of the date we determine the death
benefit. An "Anniversary Value" is equal to the Contract Value on a Contract
Anniversary, increased by purchase payments made since that anniversary and
reduced by the amount of any withdrawal adjustment, as defined below, since that
anniversary. Anniversary Values will be calculated for each Contract Anniversary
prior to the earlier of:

(i) the date we determine the death benefit, or

(ii) the deceased's 75th birthday or 5 years after the Issue Date, if later.

A positive Market Value Adjustment will apply to amounts currently invested in a
Guarantee Period that are paid out as death benefits.

The value of the death benefit will be determined at the end of the Valuation
Date on which we receive a complete request for payment of the death benefit,
which includes Due Proof of Death.

The withdrawal adjustment is equal to (a) divided by (b), with the result
multiplied by (c), where:

(a) = the withdrawal amount,

(b) = the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal, and

(c) = the value of the applicable death benefit alternative immediately prior to
      the withdrawal.

See Appendix C for an example representative of how the withdrawal adjustment
applies.

We will not settle any death claim until we receive Due Proof of Death. We will
accept the following documentation as Due Proof of Death:

..    a certified copy of a death certificate; or

..    a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to a
     finding of death; or

..    any other proof acceptable to us.

DEATH BENEFIT PAYMENTS

A death benefit will be paid:

1. if the new Contract Owner elects to receive the death benefit distributed in
a single payment within 180 days of the date of death, and

2. if the death benefit is paid as of the day the value of the death benefit is
determined.

Otherwise, the Settlement Value will be paid. The new Contract Owner may make a
single withdrawal of any amount within one year of the date of death without
incurring a withdrawal charge. However, any applicable Market Value Adjustment,
determined as of the date of the withdrawal, will apply.

We reserve the right to waive the 180 day limit on a non-discriminatory basis.
The Settlement Value paid will be the Settlement Value next computed on or after
the requested distribution date for payment, or on the mandatory distribution
date of 5 years after the date of death.

In any event, the entire value of the Contract must be distributed within 5
years after the date of death unless an Income Plan is elected or a surviving
spouse continues the Contract in accordance with the provisions described below.

If the Contract Owner eligible to receive the death benefit is not a natural
person, the Contract Owner may elect to receive the distribution upon death in
one or more distributions. However, the entire value of the Contract must be
distributed within five years after the date of death.

If the Contract Owner is a natural person, the Contract Owner may elect to
receive the distribution upon death either in one or more distributions, or by
periodic payments through an Income Plan. Payments from the Income Plan must
begin within one year of the date of death and must be payable throughout:

..    the life of the Contract Owner; or

..    a period not to exceed the life expectancy of the Contract Owner; or

..    the life of the Contract Owner with payments guaranteed for a period not to
     exceed the life expectancy of the Contract Owner.

If the surviving spouse of the deceased Contract Owner is the sole new Contract
Owner, then the spouse may elect one of the options listed above or may continue
the Contract in the Accumulation Phase as if the death had not occurred. The
Contract may only be continued once.

If the Contract is continued in the Accumulation Phase, the surviving spouse may
make a single withdrawal of any amount within one year of the date of death
without incurring a withdrawal charge. However, any applicable Market Value
Adjustment, determined as of the date of the withdrawal, will apply. Withdrawals
of earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT

Allstate New York established the Allstate Life of New York Separate Account A
on December 15, 1995. We have registered the Variable Account with the SEC as a
unit investment trust. The SEC does not supervise the management of the Variable
Account or Allstate New York.

We own the assets of the Variable Account. The Variable Account is a segregated
asset account under New York law. That means we account for the Variable
Account's income, gains and losses separately from the results of our other
operations. It also means that only the assets of the Variable Account that are
in excess of the reserves and other Contract liabilities with respect to the
Variable Account are subject to liabilities relating to our other operations.

Our obligations arising under the Contracts are general corporate obligations of
Allstate New York.

The Variable Account consists of multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, 39 of which are
available through the Contracts. Each Variable Sub-Account invests in a
corresponding Portfolio. We may add new Variable Sub-Accounts or eliminate one
or more of them, if we believe marketing, tax, or investment conditions so
warrant. We do not guarantee the investment performance of the Variable Account,
its Sub-Accounts or the Portfolios. We may use the Variable Account to fund our
other annuity contracts. We will account separately for each type of annuity
contract funded by the Variable Account.

THE CONTRACT

DISTRIBUTION. ALFS, Inc. ("ALFS"), located at 3100 Sanders Road, Northbrook,
Illinois 60062, serves as principal underwriter of the Contracts. ALFS is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company. ALFS is a registered
broker-dealer under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
("Exchange Act"), and is a member of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc.

The Contracts described in this prospectus are sold by registered
representatives of broker-dealers who are our licensed insurance agents, either
individually or through an incorporated insurance agency. Commission paid to
broker-dealers may vary, but we estimate that the total commissions paid on all
Contract sales to broker-dealers will not exceed 6.25% of any purchase payments.
These commissions are intended to cover distribution expenses. From time to
time, we may offer additional sales incentives of up to 1% of purchase payments
to broker-dealers who maintain certain sales volume levels.

Allstate New York does not pay ALFS a commission for distribution of the
Contracts. The underwriting agreement with ALFS provides that we will reimburse
ALFS for any liability to Contract Owners arising out of services rendered or
Contracts issued.

ADMINISTRATION. We have primary responsibility for all administration of the
Contracts and the Variable Account. We provide the following administrative
services, among others:

..    issuance of the Contracts;

..    maintenance of Contract Owner records;

..    Contract Owner services;

..    calculation of unit values;

..    maintenance of the Variable Account; and

..    preparation of Contract Owner reports.

We will send you Contract statements and transaction confirmations at least
annually. The annual statement details values and specific Contract data for
each

                                  29 PROSPECTUS




particular Contract. You should notify us promptly in writing of any address
change. You should read your statements and confirmations carefully and verify
their accuracy. You should contact us promptly if you have a question about a
periodic statement. We will investigate all complaints and make any necessary
adjustments retroactively, but you must notify us of a potential error within a
reasonable time after the date of the questioned statement. If you wait too
long, we will make the adjustment as of the date that we receive notice of the
potential error.

We also will provide you with additional periodic and other reports, information
and prospectuses as may be required by federal securities laws.

TAX QUALIFIED PLANS

If you use the Contract with a qualified plan, the plan may impose different or
additional conditions or limitations on withdrawals, waivers of withdrawal
charges, death benefits, Payout Start Dates, income payments, and other Contract
features. In addition, adverse tax consequences may result if qualified plan
limits on distributions and other conditions are not met. Please consult your
qualified plan administrator for more information.

THE PORTFOLIOS

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS. We automatically reinvest all
dividends and capital gains distributions from the Portfolios in shares of the
distributing Portfolio at their net asset value.

VOTING PRIVILEGES. As a general matter, you do not have a direct right to vote
the shares of the Portfolios held by the Variable Sub-Accounts to which you have
allocated your Contract Value. Under current law, however, you are entitled to
give us instructions on how to vote those shares on certain matters. Based on
our present view of the law, we will vote the shares of the Portfolios that we
hold directly or indirectly through the Variable Account in accordance with
instructions that we receive from Contract owners entitled to give such
instructions.

As a general rule, before the Payout Start Date, the Contract Owner or anyone
with a voting interest is the person entitled to give voting instructions. The
number of shares that a person has a right to instruct will be determined by
dividing the Contract Value allocated to the applicable Variable Sub-Account by
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Portfolio as of the record
date of the meeting. After the Payout Start Date, the person receiving income
payments has the voting interest. The payee's number of votes will be determined
by dividing the reserve for such Contract allocated to the applicable Variable
Sub-Account by the net asset value per share of the corresponding Portfolio. The
votes decrease as income payments are made and as the reserves for the Contract
decrease.

We will vote shares attributable to Contracts for which we have not received
instructions, as well as shares attributable to us, in the same proportion as we
vote shares for which we have received instructions, unless we determine that we
may vote such shares in our own discretion. We will apply voting instructions to
abstain on any item to be voted on a pro-rata basis to reduce the votes eligible
to be cast.

We reserve the right to vote Portfolio shares as we see fit without regard to
voting instructions to the extent permitted by law. If we disregard voting
instructions, we will include a summary of that action and our reasons for that
action in the next semi-annual financial report we send to you.

CHANGES IN PORTFOLIOS. If the shares of any of the Portfolios are no longer
available for investment by the Variable Account or if, in our judgment, further
investment in such shares is no longer desirable in view of the purposes of the
Contract, we may eliminate that Portfolio and substitute shares of another
eligible investment portfolio. Any substitution of securities will comply with
the requirements of the 1940 Act. We also may add new Variable Sub-Accounts that
invest in additional mutual funds. We will notify you in advance of any changes.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Certain of the Portfolios sell their shares to Variable
Accounts underlying both variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts.

It is conceivable that in the future it may be unfavorable for variable life
insurance Variable Accounts and variable annuity Variable Accounts to invest in
the same Portfolio. The boards of directors of these Portfolios monitor for
possible conflicts among Variable Accounts buying shares of the Portfolios.

Conflicts could develop for a variety of reasons. For example, differences in
treatment under tax and other laws or the failure by a Variable Account to
comply with such laws could cause a conflict. To eliminate a conflict, a
Portfolio's board of directors may require a Variable Account to withdraw its
participation in a Portfolio. A Portfolio's net asset value could decrease if it
had to sell investment securities to pay redemption proceeds to a Variable
Account withdrawing because of a conflict.

LEGAL MATTERS

JordenBurt LLP, Washington, D.C., has advised ALLSTATE NEW YORK on certain
federal securities law matters. All matters of New York law pertaining to the

TAXES

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS GENERAL AND IS NOT INTENDED AS TAX ADVICE. ALLSTATE
NEW YORK MAKES NO GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX TREATMENT OF ANY CONTRACT OR
TRANSACTION INVOLVING A CONTRACT.

Federal, state, local and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of
distributions under an annuity contract depend on your individual circumstances.
If you are concerned about any tax consequences with regard to your individual
circumstances, you should consult a competent tax adviser.

TAXATION OF ALLSTATE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK

ALLSTATE NEW YORK is taxed as a life insurance company under Part I of
Subchapter L of the Internal Revenue Code. Since the Variable Account is not an
entity separate from ALLSTATE NEW YORK, and its operations form a part of
ALLSTATE NEW YORK, it will not be taxed separately. Investment income and
realized capital gains of the Variable Account are automatically applied to
increase reserves under the Contract. Under existing federal income tax law,
ALLSTATE NEW YORK believes that the Variable Account investment income and
capital gains will not be taxed to the extent that such income and gains are
applied to increase the reserves under the Contract. Accordingly, ALLSTATE NEW
YORK does not anticipate that it will incur any federal income tax liability
attributable to the Variable Account, and therefore ALLSTATE NEW YORK does not
intend to make provisions for any such taxes. If ALLSTATE NEW YORK is taxed on
investment income or capital gains of the Variable Account, then ALLSTATE NEW
YORK may impose a charge against the Variable Account in order to make provision
for such taxes.

TAXATION OF ANNUITIES IN GENERAL

TAX DEFERRAL. Generally, you are not taxed on increases in the Contract Value
until a distribution occurs. This rule applies only where:

1. the Contract Owner is a natural person,

2. the investments of the Variable Account are "adequately diversified"
according to Treasury Department regulations, and

3. ALLSTATE NEW YORK is considered the owner of the Variable Account assets for
federal income tax purposes.

NON-NATURAL OWNERS. As a general rule, annuity contracts owned by non-natural
persons such as corporations, trusts, or other entities are not treated as
annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. The income on such contracts
does not enjoy tax deferral and is taxed as ordinary income received or accrued
by the owner during the taxable year.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE NON-NATURAL OWNER RULE. There are several exceptions to the
general rule that annuity contracts held by a non-natural owner are not treated
as annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. contracts will generally
be treated as held by a natural person if the nominal owner is a trust or other
entity which holds the contract as agent for a natural person. However, this
special exception will not apply in the case of an employer who is the nominal
owner of an annuity contract under a non-qualified deferred compensation
arrangement for its employees. Other exceptions to the non-natural owner rule
are: (1) contracts acquired by an estate of a decedent by reason of the death of
the decedent; (2) certain qualified contracts; (3) contracts purchased by
employers upon the termination of certain qualified plans; (4) certain contracts
used in connection with structured settlement agreements, and (5) immediate
annuity contracts, purchased with a single premium, when the annuity starting
date is no later than a year from purchase of the annuity and substantially
equal periodic payments are made, not less frequently than annually, during the
annuity period.

DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. For a Contract to be treated as an annuity for
federal income tax purposes, the investments in the Variable Account must be
"ADEQUATELY DIVERSIFIED" consistent with standards under Treasury Department
regulations. If the investments in the Variable Account are not adequately
diversified, the Contract will not be treated as an annuity contract for federal
income tax purposes. As a result, the income on the Contract will be taxed as
ordinary income received or accrued by the Contract Owner during the taxable
year. Although ALLSTATE NEW YORK does not have control over the Funds or their
investments, we expect the Funds to meet the diversification requirements.

OWNERSHIP TREATMENT. The IRS has stated that a contract owner will be considered
the owner of separate account assets if he possesses incidents of ownership in
those assets, such as the ability to exercise investment control over the
assets. At the time the diversification regulations were issued, the Treasury
Department announced that the regulations do not provide guidance concerning
circumstances in which investor control of the separate account investments may
cause a contract owner to be treated as the owner of the separate account. The
Treasury Department also stated that future guidance would be issued regarding
the extent that owners could direct sub-account investments without being
treated as owners of the underlying assets of the separate account.

Your rights under the Contract are different than those described by the IRS in
rulings in which it found that contract owners were not owners of separate
account assets. For example, you have the choice to allocate premiums and
Contract Values among a broader selection of investment alternatives. Also, you
may be able to transfer among investment alternatives more frequently than in
such rulings. These differences could result in you

                                  31 PROSPECTUS




being treated as the owner of the Variable Account. If this occurs, income and
gain from the Variable Account assets would be includible in your gross income.

ALLSTATE NEW

YORK does not know what standards will be set forth in any regulations or
rulings which the Treasury Department may issue. It is possible that future
standards announced by the Treasury Department could adversely affect the tax
treatment of your Contract. We reserve the right to modify the Contract as
necessary to attempt to prevent you from being considered the federal tax owner
of the assets of the Variable Account. However, we make no guarantee that such
modification to the Contract will be successful.

TAXATION OF PARTIAL AND FULL WITHDRAWALS. If you make a partial withdrawal under
a non-qualified Contract, amounts received are taxable to the extent the
Contract Value, without regard to surrender charges, exceeds the investment in
the Contract. The investment in the Contract is the gross premium paid for the
contract minus any amounts previously received from the Contract if such amounts
were properly excluded from your gross income. If you make a full withdrawal
under a non-Qualified Contract, the amount received will be taxable only to the
extent it exceeds the investment in the Contract.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS. Generally, the rule for income taxation of annuity
payments received from a nonqualified contract provides for the return of your
investment in the Contract in equal tax-free amounts over the payment period.
The balance of each payment received is taxable. For fixed annuity payments, the
amount excluded from income is determined by multiplying the payment by the
ratio of the investment in the Contract (adjusted for any refund feature or
period certain) to the total expected value of annuity payments for the term of
the Contract. If you elect variable annuity payments, the amount excluded from
taxable income is determined by dividing the investment in the Contract by the
total number of expected payments. The annuity payments will be fully taxable
after the total amount of the investment in the Contract is excluded using these
ratios. The Federal tax treatment of annuity payments is unclear in some
respects. As a result, if the IRS should provide further guidance, it is
possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as taxable could be
different. If you die, and annuity payments cease before the total amount of the
investment in the Contract is recovered, the unrecovered amount will be allowed
as a deduction for your last taxable year.

WITHDRAWALS AFTER THE PAYOUT START DATE. Federal tax law is unclear regarding
the taxation of any additional withdrawal received after the Payout Start Date.

It is possible that a greater or lesser portion of such a payment could be
taxable than the amount we determine.

DISTRIBUTION AT DEATH RULES. In order to be considered an annuity contract for
federal income tax purposes, the Contract must provide:

1. if any Contract Owner dies on or after the Payout Start Date but before the
entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, the remaining portion of
such interest must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the method of
distribution being used as of the date of the Contract Owner's death;

2. if any Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the entire
interest in the Contract will be distributed within 5 years after the date of
the Contract Owner's death. These requirements are satisfied if any portion of
the Contract Owner's interest that is payable to (or for the benefit of) a
designated Beneficiary is distributed over the life of such Beneficiary (or over
a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the Beneficiary) and the
distributions begin within 1 year of the Contract Owner's death. If the Contract
Owner's designated Beneficiary is the surviving spouse of the Contract Owner,
the Contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new Contract
Owner.

3. if the Contract Owner is a non-natural person, then the Annuitant will be
treated as the Contract Owner for purposes of applying the distribution at death
rules. In addition, a change in the Annuitant on a Contract owned by a
non-natural person will be treated as the death of the Contract Owner.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY DEATH BENEFITS. Death Benefit amounts are included in income
as follows:

1. if distributed in a lump sum, the amounts are taxed in the same manner as a
full withdrawal, or

2. if distributed under an Income Plan, the amounts are taxed in the same manner
as annuity payments.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS. A 10% penalty tax applies to the taxable
amount of any premature distribution from a non-Qualified Contract. The penalty
tax generally applies to any distribution made prior to the date you attain age
59 1/2. However, no penalty tax is incurred on distributions:

1. made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

2. made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or becoming totally disabled,

3. made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's life
or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies of the
Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

4. made under an immediate annuity, or

5. attributable to investment in the Contract before August 14, 1982.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS. With respect to non-Qualified Contracts
using substantially equal periodic payments or immediate annuity payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions,

                                  32 PROSPECTUS




any additional withdrawal or other modification of the payment stream would
violate the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to
meet this requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment
received prior to the later of 5 years or the Contract Owner's attaining age
59 1/2 would be subject to a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the
penalty tax applied. The tax for the year of the modification is increased by
the penalty tax that would have been imposed without the exception, plus
interest for the years in which the exception was used. You should consult a
competent tax advisor prior to taking a withdrawal.

TAX FREE EXCHANGES UNDER IRC SECTION 1035. A 1035 exchange is a tax-free
exchange of a non-qualified life insurance contract, endowment contract or
annuity contract for a new non-qualified annuity contract. The Contract Owner(s)
must be the same on the old and new contract. Basis from the old contract
carries over to the new contract so long as we receive that information from the
relinquishing company. If basis information is never received, we will assume
that all exchanged funds represent earnings and will allocate no cost basis to
them.

TAXATION OF OWNERSHIP CHANGES. If you transfer a non-Qualified Contract without
full and adequate consideration to a person other than your spouse (or to a
former spouse incident to a divorce), you will be taxed on the difference
between the Contract Value and the investment in the Contract at the time of
transfer. Except for certain Qualified Contracts, any amount you receive as a
loan under a Contract, and any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or
pledge) of the Contract Value is taxed as a withdrawal of such amount or portion
and may also incur the 10% penalty tax. Currently we do not allow assignments.

AGGREGATION OF ANNUITY CONTRACTS. The Code requires that all non-qualified
deferred annuity contracts issued by ALLSTATE NEW YORK (or its affiliates) to
the same Contract Owner during any calendar year be aggregated and treated as
one annuity contract for purposes of determining the taxable amount of a
distribution.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING

Generally, ALLSTATE NEW YORK is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 10% from all non-annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out of
withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold the required 10% of the taxable
amount. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

ALLSTATE NEW YORK is required to withhold federal income tax using the wage
withholding rates for all annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out
of withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold using married with three
exemptions as the default. In certain states, if there is federal withholding,
then state withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

                               QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

The income on qualified plan and IRA investments is tax deferred, and the income
on variable annuities held by such plans does not receive any additional tax
deferral. You should review the annuity features, including all benefits and
expenses, prior to purchasing a variable annuity in a qualified plan or IRA.
Contracts may be used as investments with certain qualified plans such as:

..    Individual Retirement Annuities or Accounts (IRAs) under Section 408 of the
     Code;

..    Roth IRAs under Section 408A of the Code;

..    Simplified Employee Pension Plans under Section 408(k) of the Code;

..    Savings Incentive Match Plans for Employees (SIMPLE) Plans under Section
     408(p) of the Code;

..    Tax Sheltered Annuities under Section 403(b) of the Code;

..    Corporate and Self Employed Pension and Profit Sharing Plans under Sections
     401 and 403; and

..    State and Local Government and Tax-Exempt Organization Deferred
     Compensation Plans under Section 457.

ALLSTATE NEW YORK reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the Qualified Plans listed above or to modify the Contract
to conform with tax requirements. The tax rules applicable to participants in
such qualified plans vary according to the type of plan and the terms and
conditions of the plan itself. Adverse tax consequences may result from certain
transactions such as excess contributions, premature distributions, and
distributions that do not conform to specified commencement and minimum
distribution rules.

In the case of certain qualified plans, the terms of the plans may govern the
right to benefits, regardless of the terms of the Contract.

TAXATION OF WITHDRAWALS FROM A QUALIFIED CONTRACT. If you make a partial
withdrawal under a Qualified Contract other than a Roth IRA, the portion of the
payment that bears the same ratio to the total payment that the investment in
the Contract (i.e., nondeductible IRA contributions, after tax contributions to
qualified plans) bears to the Contract Value, is excluded from your income. We
do not keep track of nondeductible contributions, and all tax reporting of
distributions from Qualified Contracts other than Roth IRAs will indicate that
the distribution is fully taxable.

"QUALIFIED DISTRIBUTIONS" from Roth IRAs are not included in gross income.
"Qualified distributions" are

                                  33 PROSPECTUS




any distributions made more than five taxable years after the taxable year of
the first contribution to any Roth IRA and which are:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made to a beneficiary after the Contract Owner's death,

..    attributable to the Contract Owner being disabled, or

..    made for a first time home purchase (first time home purchases are subject
     to a lifetime limit of $10,000).

"NONQUALIFIED DISTRIBUTIONS" from Roth IRAs are treated as made from
contributions first and are included in gross income only to the extent that
distributions exceed contributions. All tax reporting of distributions from Roth
IRAs will indicate that the taxable amount is not determined.

REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS. Generally, qualified plans require minimum
distributions upon reaching age 70 1/2. Failure to withdraw the required minimum
distribution will result in a 50% tax penalty on the shortfall not withdrawn
from the contract. Not all income plans offered under this annuity contract
satisfy the requirements for minimum distributions. Because these distributions
are required under the code and the method of calculation is complex, please see
a competent tax advisor.

THE DEATH BENEFIT AND QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Pursuant to the Code and IRS
regulations, an IRA may not invest in life insurance contracts. However, an IRA
(e.g., traditional IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA and SIMPLE IRA) may provide a death
benefit that equals the greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value.

The Contract offers a death benefit that in certain circumstances may exceed the
greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value. It is possible that the
Death Benefit could be viewed as violating the prohibition on investment in life
insurance contracts, with the result that the Contract would not satisfy the
requirements of an IRA. We believe that these regulations do not prohibit all
forms of optional death benefits; however, at this time we are not allowing the
Enhanced Earnings Death Benefit Plus Option to be sold with an IRA.

It is also possible that the certain death benefits that offer enhanced earnings
could be characterized as an incidental death benefit. If the death benefit were
so characterized, this could result in current taxable income to a Contract
Owner. In addition, there are limitations on the amount of incidental death
benefits that may be provided under qualified plans, such as in connection with
a 403(b) plan.

ALLSTATE NEW YORK reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the qualified plans listed above.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. A 10% penalty
tax applies to the taxable amount of any premature distribution from a Qualified
Contract. The penalty tax generally applies to any distribution made prior to
the date you attain age 59 1/2. However, no penalty tax is incurred on
distributions:

1. made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

2. made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or total disability,

3. made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's life
or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies of the
Contract Owner and the Contract Beneficiary,

4. made pursuant to an IRS levy,

5. made for certain medical expenses,

6. made to pay for health insurance premiums while unemployed (only applies for
IRAs),

7. made for qualified higher education expenses (only applies for IRAs), and

8. made for a first time home purchase (up to a $10,000 lifetime limit and only
applies for IRAs).

During the first 2 years of the individual's participation in a SIMPLE IRA,
distributions that are otherwise subject to the premature distribution penalty,
will be subject to a 25% penalty tax.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS ON QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. With respect to
Qualified Contracts using substantially equal periodic payments as an exception
to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional withdrawal or
other modification of the payment stream would violate the requirement that
payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this requirement would
mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to the later of 5
years or the taxpayer's attaining age 59 1/2 would be subject to a 10% penalty
tax unless another exception to the penalty tax applied. The tax for the year of
the modification is increased by the penalty tax that would have been imposed
without the exception, plus interest for the years in which the exception was
used. You should consult a competent tax advisor prior to taking a withdrawal.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING ON QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Generally, ALLSTATE NEW YORK is
required to withhold federal income tax at a rate of 10% from all non-annuitized
distributions that are not considered "ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTIONS." The
customer may elect out of withholding by completing and signing a withholding
election form. If no election is made, we will automatically withhold the
required 10% from the taxable amount. In certain states, if there is federal
withholding, then state withholding is also mandatory. ALLSTATE NEW YORK is
required to withhold federal income

                                  34 PROSPECTUS




tax at a rate of 20% on all "ELIGIBLE ROLLOVER DISTRIBUTIONS" unless you elect
to make a "DIRECT ROLLOVER" of such amounts to an IRA or eligible retirement
plan. Eligible rollover distributions generally include all distributions from
Qualified Contracts, excluding IRAs, with the exception of:

1. required minimum distributions, or

2. a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over a period of at
least 10 years, or,

3. a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over the life (joint
lives) of the participant (and beneficiary), or,

4. hardship distributions.

For all annuitized distributions that are not subject to the 20% withholding
requirement, ALLSTATE NEW YORK is required to withhold federal income tax using
the wage withholding rates from all annuitized distributions. The customer may
elect out of withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form.

If no election is made, we will automatically withhold using married with three
exemptions as the default. In certain states, if there is federal withholding,
then state withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Section 408 of the Code permits eligible
individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an
Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA). Individual Retirement Annuities are subject
to limitations on the amount that can be contributed and on the time when
distributions may commence. Certain distributions from other types of qualified
plans may be "ROLLED OVER" on a tax-deferred basis into an Individual Retirement
Annuity.

ROTH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Section 408A of the Code permits eligible
individuals to make nondeductible contributions to an individual retirement
program known as a Roth Individual Retirement Annuity. Roth Individual
Retirement Annuities are subject to limitations on the amount that can be
contributed and on the time when distributions may commence.

Subject to certain limitations, a traditional Individual Retirement Account or
Annuity may be converted or "ROLLED OVER" to a Roth Individual Retirement
Annuity. The income portion of a conversion or rollover distribution is taxable
currently, but is exempted from the 10% penalty tax on premature distributions.

SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION PLANS. Section 408(k) of the Code allows eligible
employers to establish simplified employee pension plans for their employees
using individual retirement annuities. Under these plans the employer may,
within specified limits, make deductible contributions on behalf of the
employees to the individual retirement annuities. Employers intending to use the
Contract in connection with such plans should seek competent tax advice.

SAVINGS INCENTIVE MATCH PLANS FOR EMPLOYEES (SIMPLE PLANS). Sections 408(p) and
401(k) of the Code allow eligible employers with 100 or fewer employees to
establish SIMPLE retirement plans for their employees. SIMPLE plans may be
structured as a SIMPLE retirement account using an IRA or as a Section 401(k)
qualified cash or deferred arrangement. In general, a SIMPLE plan consists of a
salary deferral program for eligible employees and matching or nonelective
contributions made by employers. Employers intending to use the Contract in
conjunction with SIMPLE plans should seek competent tax and legal advice.

TO DETERMINE IF YOU ARE ELIGIBLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE LISTED IRAS
(TRADITIONAL, ROTH, SEP, OR SIMPLE), PLEASE REFER TO IRS PUBLICATION 590 AND
YOUR COMPETENT TAX ADVISOR.

TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES. Section 403(b) of the Tax Code provides tax-deferred
retirement savings plans for employees of certain non-profit and educational
organizations. Under Section 403(b), any contract used for a 403(b) plan must
provide that distributions attributable to salary reduction contributions made
after 12/31/88, and all earnings on salary reduction contributions, may be made
only on or after the date the employee:

..    attains age 59 1/2,

..    separates from service,

..    dies,

..    becomes disabled, or

..    incurs a hardship (earnings on salary reduction contributions may not be
     distributed on account of hardship).

These limitations do not apply to withdrawals where ALLSTATE NEW YORK is
directed to transfer some or all of the Contract Value to another 403(b) plan.

CORPORATE AND SELF-EMPLOYED PENSION AND PROFIT SHARING PLANS. Sections 401(a)
and 403(a) of the Code permit corporate employers to establish various types of
tax favored retirement plans for employees. Self-employed individuals may
establish tax favored retirement plans for themselves and their employees. Such
retirement plans (commonly referred to as "H.R.10" or "KEOGH") may permit the
purchase of annuity contracts.

STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION DEFERRED COMPENSATION
PLANS. Section 457 of the Code permits employees of state and local governments
and tax-exempt organizations to defer a portion of their compensation without
paying current taxes. The employees must be participants in an eligible deferred
compensation plan. In eligible governmental plans, all assets and income must be
held in a trust/ custodial account/annuity contract for the exclusive

                                  35 PROSPECTUS




benefit of the participants and their beneficiaries. To the extent the Contracts
are used in connection with a non-governmental eligible plan, employees are
considered general creditors of the employer and the employer as owner of the
Contract has the sole right to the proceeds of the Contract. Under eligible 457
plans, contributions made for the benefit of the employees will not be
includible in the employees' gross income until distributed from the plan.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

We may advertise the performance of the Variable Sub-Accounts, including yield
and total return information. Yield refers to the income generated by an
investment in a Variable Sub-Account over a specified period. Total return
represents the change, over a specified period of time, in the value of an
investment in a Variable Sub-Account after reinvesting all income distributions.

All performance advertisements will include, as applicable, standardized yield
and total return figures that reflect the deduction of insurance charges, the
contract maintenance charge, and withdrawal charge. Performance advertisements
also may include total return figures that reflect the deduction of insurance
charges, but not the contract maintenance or withdrawal charges. The deduction
of such charges would reduce the performance shown. In addition, performance
advertisements may include aggregate, average, year-by-year, or other types of
total return figures.

Performance information for periods prior to the inception date of the Variable
Sub-Accounts will be based on the historical performance of the corresponding
Portfolios for the periods beginning with the inception dates of the Portfolios
and adjusted to reflect current Contract expenses. You should not interpret
these figures to reflect actual historical performance of the Variable Account.

We may include in advertising and sales materials tax deferred compounding
charts and other hypothetical illustrations that compare currently taxable and
tax deferred investment programs based on selected tax brackets. Our
advertisements also may compare the performance of our Variable Sub-Accounts
with: (a) certain unmanaged market indices, including but not limited to the Dow
Jones Industrial Average, the Standard & Poor's 500, and the Shearson Lehman
Bond Index; and/or (b) other management investment companies with investment
objectives similar to the underlying funds being compared. In addition, our
advertisements may include the performance ranking assigned by various
publications, including the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Fortune, Money,
Barron's, Business Week, USA Today, and statistical services, including Lipper
Analytical Services Mutual Fund Survey, Lipper Annuity and Closed End Survey,
the Variable Annuity Research Data Survey, and SEI.

APPENDIX A MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

The Market Value Adjustment is based on the following:

I = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the applicable Guarantee Period
for the week preceding the establishment of the Guarantee Period.

N = the number of whole and partial years from the date we receive the
withdrawal, transfer, or death benefit request, or from the Payout Start Date,
to the end of the Guarantee Period; and

J = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the Guarantee Period for the week
preceding the receipt of the withdrawal, transfer, death benefit, or income
payment request. If a note for a maturity of length N is not available, a
weighted average will be used.

"Treasury Rate" means the U.S. Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported
in Federal Reserve Bulletin Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment factor is determined from the following formula:

..9 x (I - J) x N

To determine the Market Value Adjustment, we will multiply the Market Value
Adjustment factor by the amount transefered (in excess of the Free Withdrawal
Amount) paid as a death benefit, or applied to an Income Plan, from a Guarantee
Period at any time other than during the 30 day period after such Guarentee
Period expires.

EXAMPLES OF MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

Purchase Payment: $10,000 allocated to a Guarantee Period

Guarantee Period: 5 years

Guaranteed Interest Rate: 4.50%

5 Year Treasury Rate at the time the Guarantee Period is established: 4.50%

Full Surrender: End of Contract Year 3

                             Factor x Amount Subject to Market Value Adjustment:
                             = .0054 X ($11,411.66 - $1,500.00) = $53.32

Step 4. Calculate the
Withdrawal Charge:           = .05 X (10,000.00 - 1,500.00 + 53.52) = $427.68

Step 5. Calculate the amount
received by a Contract Owner
as a result of full
withdrawal at the end of
Contract Year 3:             11,411.66 - 427.68 + 53.52 = $11,037.50

                             -.0054 X (11,411.66 - 1,500.00) = -$53.52

Step 4. Calculate the
Withdrawal Charge:           .05 X (10,000.00 - 1,500.00 - 53.52) = $422.32

amount received by a
Contract Owner as a result
of full withdrawal at the
end of Contract Year 3:      11,411.66 - 422.32 - 53.52 = $10,935.82

                                 the following ways:

DEATH BENEFITS                   If you die before the PAYOUT START DATE, we
                                 will pay the death benefit described in the
                                 Contract.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFERS                        Before the Payout Start Date, you may transfer
                                 your Contract value ("CONTRACT VALUE") among
                                 the investment alternatives, with certain
                                 restrictions. Transfers to the Fixed Account
                                 must be at least $500.

                                 We do not currently impose a fee upon
                                 transfers. However, we reserve the right to
                                 charge $10 per transfer after the 12th transfer
                                 in each Contract Year, which we measure from
                                 the date we issue your Contract or a Contract
                                 anniversary ("CONTRACT ANNIVERSARY").

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WITHDRAWALS                      You may withdraw some or all of your Contract
                                 Value at any time during the Accumulation
                                 Phase. Full or partial withdrawals also are
                                 available under limited circumstances on or
                                 after the Payout Start Date. In general, you
                                 must withdraw at least $50 at a time ($1,000
                                 for withdrawals made during the Payout Phase).
                                 Withdrawals taken during the Accumulation Phase
                                 are generally considered to come from the
                                 earnings in the Contract first. If the Contract
                                 is tax-qualified, generally all withdrawals are
                                 treated as distributions of earnings.
                                 Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
                                 income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
                                 be subject to an additional 10% federal tax
                                 penalty. A withdrawal charge and MARKET VALUE
                                 ADJUSTMENT also may apply.

HOW THE CONTRACT WORKS

The Contract basically works in two ways.

First, the Contract can help you (we assume you are the CONTRACT OWNER) save for
retirement because you can invest in up to 29 investment alternatives and
generally pay no federal income taxes on any earnings until you withdraw them.
You do this during what we call the "ACCUMULATION PHASE" of the Contract. The
Accumulation Phase begins on the date we issue your Contract (we call that date
the "ISSUE DATE") and continues until the Payout Start Date, which is the date
we apply your money to provide income payments. During the Accumulation Phase,
you may allocate your purchase payments to any combination of the Variable
Sub-Accounts and/or Fixed Account. If you invest in the Fixed Account, you will
earn a fixed rate of interest that we declare periodically. If you invest in any
of the Variable Sub-Accounts, your investment return will vary up or down
depending on the performance of the corresponding Portfolios.

Second, the Contract can help you plan for retirement because you can use it to
receive retirement income for life and/ or for a pre-set number of years, by
selecting one of the income payment options (we call these "INCOME PLANS")
described on page 22. You receive income payments during what we call the
"PAYOUT PHASE" of the Contract, which begins on the Payout Start Date and
continues until we make the last payment required by the Income Plan you select.
During the Payout Phase, if you select a fixed income payment option, we
guarantee the amount of your payments, which will remain fixed. If you select a
variable income payment option, based on one or more of the Variable
Sub-Accounts, the amount of your payments will vary up or down depending on the
performance of the corresponding Portfolios. The amount of money you accumulate
under your Contract during the Accumulation Phase and apply to an Income Plan
will determine the amount of your income payments during the Payout Phase.

The timeline below illustrates how you might use your Contract.

EXPENSE TABLE

The following tables show the fees and expenses that you will pay when buying,
owning, making withdrawals or surrendering the Contract. The first table
describes the fees and expenses that you will pay when you make a withdrawal,
surrender the Contract, or transfer Contract Value among the investment
alternatives. Premium taxes are not reflected in the tables because New York
currently does not impose premium taxes on annuities.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the
Contracts with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These
costs include Contract owner transaction expenses, Contract fees, Variable
Account annual expenses, and Portfolio fees and expenses.

The example shows the dollar amount of expenses that you would bear directly or
indirectly if you:

..    invested $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated,

..    earned a 5% annual return on your investment, and

..    surrendered your Contract, or you began receiving income payments for a
     specified period of less than 120 months, at the end of each time period.

THE EXAMPLE DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY TAXES OR TAX PENALTIES YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO
PAY IF YOU SURRENDER YOUR CONTRACT.

The first line of the example assumes that the maximum fees and expenses of any
of the Portfolios are charged. The second line of the example assumes that the
minimum fees and expenses of any of the Portfolios are charged. Your actual
expenses may be higher or lower than those shown below because of variations in
a Portfolio's expense ratio from year to year.

This Example uses the same assumptions as Example 1 above, except that it
assumes you decided not to surrender your Contract, or you began receiving
income payments for a specified period of at least 120 months, at the end of
each time period.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To measure the value of your investment in the Variable Sub-Accounts during the
Accumulation Phase, we use a unit of measure we call the "ACCUMULATION UNIT."
Each Variable Sub-Account has a separate value for its Accumulation Units we
call "ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE." Accumulation Unit Value is analogous to, but not
the same as, the share price of a mutual fund.

Attached as Appendix A to this prospectus are tables showing the Accumulation
Unit Values for each Variable Sub-Account since the date the Contracts were
first offered. To obtain a fuller picture of each Variable Sub-Account's
finances, please refer to the Variable Account's financial statements contained
in the Statement of Additional Information. The financial statements of Allstate
New York also appear in the Statement of Additional Information.

THE CONTRACT

CONTRACT OWNER

The Custom Portfolio Variable Annuity is a contract between you, the Contract
Owner, and Allstate New York, a life insurance company. As the Contract Owner,
you may exercise all of the rights and privileges provided to you by the
Contract. That means it is up to you to select or change (to the extent
permitted):

..    the investment alternatives during the Accumulation and Payout Phases,

..    the amount and timing of your purchase payments and withdrawals,

..    the programs you want to use to invest or withdraw money,

..    the income payment plan you want to use to receive retirement income,

..    the Annuitant (either yourself or someone else) on whose life the income
     payments will be based,

..    the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries who will receive the benefits that the
     Contract provides when the last surviving Contract Owner dies, and

..    any other rights that the Contract provides.

If you die prior to the Payout Start Date, the new Contract Owner will be the
surviving Owner. If there is no surviving Owner, the new Contract Owner will be
the Beneficiary(ies) as described in the Beneficiary provision. The new Contract
Owner may exercise the rights and privileges provided by the Contract, except
that if the new Contract Owner took ownership as the Beneficiary, the new
Contract Owner's rights will be subject to any restrictions previously placed
upon the Beneficiary.

The Contract cannot be jointly owned by both a non-living person and a living
person. If the Owner is a Grantor Trust, the Contract Owner will be considered a
non-living person for purposes of the Death of Owner and Death of Annuitant
provisions of your Contract. The maximum age of the oldest Contract Owner cannot
exceed 85 as of the date we receive the completed application. Changing
ownership of this Contract may cause adverse tax consequences and may not be
allowed under qualified plans. Please consult with a competent tax advisor prior
to making a request for a change of Contract Owner.

The Contract can also be purchased as an IRA or TSA (also known as a 403(b)).
The endorsements required to qualify these annuities under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, ("Code") may limit or modify your rights and
privileges under the Contract.

ANNUITANT

The Annuitant is the individual whose life determines the amount and duration of
income payments (other than under Income Plans with guaranteed payments for a
specified period). You initially designate an Annuitant in your application. The
maximum age of the oldest Annuitant cannot exceed 85 as of the date we receive
the completed application. If the Contract Owner is a living person you may
change the Annuitant prior to the Payout Start Date. In our discretion, we may
permit you to designate a joint Annuitant, who is a second person on whose life
income payments depend, on the Payout Start Date.

If the Annuitant dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the new Annuitant will be:

..    the youngest Contract Owner, if living, otherwise

..    the youngest Beneficiary.

BENEFICIARY

The Beneficiary is the person who may elect to receive the death benefit or
become the new Contract Owner subject to the Death of Owner provision if the
sole surviving Contract Owner dies before the Payout Start Date. See "Death
Benefits" on page 23. If the sole surviving Contract Owner dies after the Payout
Start Date, the Beneficiary will receive any guaranteed income payments
scheduled to continue.

You may name one or more primary and contingent Beneficiaries when you apply for
a Contract. The primary Beneficiary is the Beneficiary(ies) who is first
entitled to receive benefits under the Contract upon the death of the sole
surviving Contract Owner. The contingent Beneficiary is the Beneficiary(ies)
entitled to receive

                                  9 PROSPECTUS




benefits under the Contract when all primary Beneficiaries predecease the sole
surviving Contract Owner.

You may restrict income payments to Beneficiaries by providing us a written
request. Once we accept the written request, the change or restriction will take
effect as of the date you signed the request. Any change is subject to any
payment we make or other action we take before we accept the change.

You may change or add Beneficiaries at any time by writing to us, unless you
have designated an irrevocable Beneficiary. We will provide a change of
Beneficiary form to be signed and filed with us. After we accept the form, the
change of Beneficiary will be effective as of the date you signed the form,
whether or not the Annuitant is living when we receive the notice. Each change
is subject to any payment made by us or any other action we take before we
accept the change. Accordingly, if you wish to change your Beneficiary, you
should deliver your written notice to us promptly.

If you do not name a Beneficiary or, if the named Beneficiary is no longer
living and there are no other surviving Beneficiaries, the new Beneficiary will
be:

..    your spouse or, if he or she is no longer alive,

..    your surviving children equally, or if you have no surviving children,

..    your estate.

If more than one Beneficiary survives you, we will divide the death benefit
among your Beneficiaries according to your most recent written instructions. If
you have not given us written instructions, we will pay the death benefit in
equal amounts to the surviving Beneficiaries.

MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT

Only an Allstate New York officer may approve a change in or waive any provision
of the Contract. Any change or waiver must be in writing. None of our agents has
the authority to change or waive the provisions of the Contract. We may not
change the terms of the Contract without your consent, except to conform the
Contract to applicable law or changes in the law. If a provision of the Contract
is inconsistent with state law, we will follow state law.

ASSIGNMENT

No owner has a right to assign any interest in a Contract as collateral or
security for a loan. However, you may assign periodic income payments under the
Contract prior to the Payout Start Date. No Beneficiary may assign benefits
under the Contract until they are due. We will not be bound by any assignment
until the assignor signs it and files it with us. We are not responsible for the
validity of any assignment. Federal law prohibits or restricts the assignment of
benefits under many types of qualified plans and the terms of such plans may
themselves contain restrictions on assignments. An assignment may also result in
taxes and tax penalties. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR ATTORNEY BEFORE TRYING TO
ASSIGN YOUR CONTRACT.

PURCHASES

MINIMUM PURCHASE PAYMENTS

Your initial purchase payment must be at least $3,000 ($2,000 for a Qualified
Contract). All subsequent purchase payments must be $100 ($500 for an allocation
to the Fixed Account) or more. You may make purchase payments at any time prior
to the Payout Start Date. We reserve the right to limit the maximum amount of
purchase payments we will accept. We also reserve the right to reject any
application.

AUTOMATIC ADDITIONS PROGRAM

You may make subsequent purchase payments of at least $100 ($500 for allocation
to the Fixed Account) by automatically transferring amounts from your bank
account. Please consult with your representative for detailed information.

ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS

At the time you apply for a Contract, you must decide how to allocate your
purchase payments among the investment alternatives. The allocation you specify
on your application will be effective immediately. All allocations must be in
whole percents that total 100% or in whole dollars. You can change your
allocations by notifying us in writing. We reserve the right to limit the
availability of the investment alternatives.

We will allocate your purchase payments to the investment alternatives according
to your most recent instructions on file with us. Unless you notify us in
writing otherwise, we will allocate subsequent purchase payments according to
the allocation for the previous purchase payment. We will effect any change in
allocation instructions at the time we receive written notice, in good order, of
the change.

We will credit the initial purchase payment that accompanies your completed
application to your Contract within 2 business days after we receive the payment
at our service center. If your application is incomplete, we will ask you to
complete your application within 5 business days. If you do so, we will credit
your initial purchase payment to your Contract within that 5 business day
period. If you do not, we will return your purchase payment at the end of the 5
business day period unless you expressly allow us to hold it until you complete
the application. We will credit subsequent purchase payments to the Contract at
the close of the business day on which we receive the purchase payment at our
service

center located in Vernon Hills, Illinois (mailing address: 300 N. Milwaukee Ave,
Vernon Hills, Illinois 60061).

We are open for business each day Monday through Friday that the New York Stock
Exchange is open for business. We also refer to these days as "VALUATION DATES."
Our business day closes when the New York Stock Exchange closes, usually 4:00
p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time). If we receive your purchase payment
after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date, we
will credit your purchase payment using the Accumulation Unit Values computed on
the next Valuation Date.

RIGHT TO CANCEL

You may cancel the Contract by returning it to us within the Cancellation
Period, which is the 10 day period after you receive the Contract (60 days if
you are exchanging another contract for the Contract described in this
prospectus). You may return it by delivering it or mailing it to us. If you
exercise this "RIGHT TO CANCEL," the Contract terminates and we will pay you the
full amount of your purchase payments allocated to the Fixed Account. Upon
cancellation, as permitted by federal or state law, we will return your purchase
payments allocated to the Variable Account after an adjustment to the extent
federal or state law permits to reflect investment gain or loss that occurred
from the date of allocation through the date of cancellation. If your Contract
is qualified under Code Section 408(b), we will refund the greater of any
purchase payment or the Contract Value.

CONTRACT VALUE

On the Issue Date, the Contract Value is equal to the initial purchase payment.
Your Contract Value at any other time during the Accumulation Phase is equal to
the sum of the value as of the most recent Valuation Date of your Accumulation
Units in the Variable Sub-Accounts you have selected, plus the value of your
investment in the Fixed Account.

ACCUMULATION UNITS

To determine the number of Accumulation Units of each Variable Sub-Account to
credit to your Contract, we divide (i) the amount of the purchase payment or
transfer you have allocated to a Variable Sub-Account by (ii) the Accumulation
Unit Value of that Variable Sub-Account next computed after we receive your
payment or transfer. For example, if we receive a $10,000 purchase payment
allocated to a Variable Sub-Account when the Accumulation Unit Value for the
Sub-Account is $10, we would credit 1,000 Accumulation Units of that Variable
Sub-Account to your Contract. Withdrawals and transfers from a Variable
Sub-Account would, of course, reduce the number of Accumulation Units of that
Sub-Account allocated to your Contract.

ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE

As a general matter, the Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account
will rise or fall to reflect:

..    changes in the share price of the Portfolio in which the Variable
     Sub-Account invests, and

..    the deduction of amounts reflecting the mortality and expense risk charge,
     administrative expense charge, and any provision for taxes that have
     accrued since we last calculated the Accumulation Unit Value.

We determine contract maintenance charges, withdrawal charges, and transfer fees
(currently waived) separately for each Contract. They do not affect Accumulation
Unit Value. Instead, we obtain payment of those charges and fees by redeeming
Accumulation Units. For details on how we calculate Accumulation Unit Value,
please refer to the Statement of Additional Information.

We determine a separate Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account on
each Valuation Date.

YOU SHOULD REFER TO THE PROSPECTUSES FOR THE PORTFOLIOS THAT ACCOMPANY THIS
PROSPECTUS FOR A DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE ASSETS OF EACH PORTFOLIO ARE VALUED,
SINCE THAT DETERMINATION DIRECTLY BEARS ON THE ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE OF THE
CORRESPONDING VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNT AND, THEREFORE, YOUR CONTRACT VALUE.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNTS

You may allocate your purchase payments to up to 26 Variable Sub-Accounts. Each
Variable Sub-Account invests in the shares of a corresponding Portfolio. Each
Portfolio has its own investment objective(s) and policies. We briefly describe
the Portfolios below.

For more complete information about each Portfolio, including expenses and risks
associated with the Portfolio, please refer to the accompanying prospectus for
the Portfolio. You should carefully review the Portfolio prospectuses before
allocating amounts to the Variable Sub-Accounts.

AMOUNTS YOU ALLOCATE TO VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNTS MAY GROW IN VALUE, DECLINE IN
VALUE, OR GROW LESS THAN YOU EXPECT, DEPENDING ON THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF
THE PORTFOLIOS IN WHICH THOSE VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNTS INVEST. YOU BEAR THE
INVESTMENT RISK THAT THE PORTFOLIOS MIGHT NOT MEET THEIR INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES.
SHARES OF THE PORTFOLIOS ARE NOT DEPOSITS, OR OBLIGATIONS OF, OR GUARANTEED OR
ENDORSED BY ANY BANK AND ARE NOT INSURED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE
CORPORATION, THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD OR ANY OTHER AGENCY.

VARIABLE INSURANCE PORTFOLIOS MIGHT NOT BE MANAGED BY THE SAME PORTFOLIO
MANAGERS WHO MANAGE RETAIL MUTUAL FUNDS WITH SIMILAR NAMES. THESE PORTFOLIOS ARE
LIKELY TO DIFFER FROM SIMILARLY NAMED RETAIL FUNDS IN ASSETS, CASH FLOW, AND TAX
MATTERS. ACCORDINGLY, THE HOLDINGS AND RESULTS OF A VARIABLE INSURANCE PORTFOLIO
CAN BE EXPECTED TO BE HIGHER OR LOWER THAN THE INVESTMENT RESULTS OF A SIMILARLY
NAMED RETAIL MUTUAL FUND.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE FIXED ACCOUNT

You may allocate all or a portion of your purchase payments to the Fixed Account
Options. We will credit a minimum annual interest rate of 3% to money you
allocate to any of the Fixed Account Options. Please consult with your
representative for current information. The Fixed Account supports our insurance
and annuity obligations. The Fixed Account consists of our general account
assets other than those in segregated asset accounts. We have sole discretion to
invest the assets of the Fixed Account, subject to applicable law. Any money you
allocate to a Fixed Account Option does not entitle you to share in the
investment experience of the Fixed Account.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION

SIX MONTH DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION. Under this Option, you may
establish a Dollar Cost Averaging Program by allocating purchase payments to the
Six Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Option ("Six Month DCA Fixed
Account Option"). We will credit interest to purchase payments you allocate to
this Option for six months at the current rate in effect at

                                  13 PROSPECTUS




the time of allocation. We will credit interest daily at a rate that will
compound at the annual interest rate we guaranteed at the time of allocation.

We will follow your instructions in transferring amounts monthly from the Six
Month DCA Fixed Account Option.

You must transfer all of your money out of the Six Month DCA Fixed Account
Option to the Variable Sub-Accounts in six equal monthly installments. If you
discontinue the Dollar Cost Averaging Option before the end of the transfer
period, we will transfer the remaining balance in this Option to the Dreyfus VIF
Money Market Variable Sub-Account unless you request a different investment
alternative. No transfers are permitted into the Six Month DCA Fixed Account.

For each purchase payment allocated to this Option, your first monthly transfer
will occur at the end of the first month following such purchase payment. If we
do not receive an allocation from you within one month of the date of payment,
we will transfer the payment plus associated interest to the Dreyfus VIF Money
Market Variable Sub-Account in equal monthly installments. Transferring Account
Value to the Dreyfus Money Market Variable Sub-Account in this manner may not be
consistent with the theory of Dollar Cost Averaging described on page 18.

TWELVE MONTH DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION. Under this Option, you
may establish a Dollar Cost Averaging Program by allocating purchase payments to
the Twelve Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Option ("Twelve Month DCA
Fixed Account Option"). We will credit interest to purchase payments you
allocate to this Option for twelve months at the current rate in effect at the
time of allocation. We will credit interest daily at a rate that will compound
at the annual interest rate we guaranteed at the time of allocation.

We will follow your instructions in transferring amounts monthly from the Twelve
Month DCA Fixed Account Option.

You must transfer all of your money out of the Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account
Option to the Variable Sub-Accounts in twelve equal monthly installments. If you
discontinue the Dollar Cost Averaging Option before the end of the transfer
period, we will transfer the remaining balance in this Option to the Dreyfus VIF
Money Market Variable Sub-Account unless you request a different investment
alternative. No transfers are permitted into the Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account.

For each purchase payment allocated to this Option, your first monthly transfer
will occur at the end of the first month following such purchase payment. If we
do not receive an allocation from you within one month of the date of payment,
we will transfer the payment plus associated interest to the Dreyfus VIF Money
Market Variable Sub-Account in equal monthly installments. Transferring Account
Value to the Money Market Variable Sub-Account in this manner may not be
consistent with the theory of dollar cost averaging described on page 18.

At the end of the transfer period, any nominal amounts remaining in the Six
Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account or the Twelve Month Dollar Cost
Averaging Fixed Account will be allocated to the Dreyfus VIF Money Market
Variable Sub-Account.

Transfers out of the Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Options do not count
towards the 12 transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee.

INVESTMENT RISK. We bear the investment risk for all amounts allocated to the
Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option and the Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account
Option. That is because we guarantee the current interest rates we credit to the
amounts you allocate to either of these Options, which will never be less than
the minimum guaranteed rate in the Contract. Currently, we determine, in our
sole discretion, the amount of interest credited in excess of the guaranteed
rate.

We may declare more than one interest rate for different monies based upon the
date of allocation to the Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option and the Twelve
Month DCA Fixed Account Option. For current interest rate information, please
contact your representative or our customer support unit at 1-800-692-4682.

GUARANTEE PERIODS

Under this option, each payment or transfer allocated to the Fixed Account earns
interest at a specified rate that we guarantee for a period of years we call a
Guarantee Period. Guarantee Periods may range from 1 to 10 years. We are
currently offering Guarantee Periods of 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 years in length. In
the future we may offer Guarantee Periods of different lengths or stop offering
some Guarantee Periods. You select one or more Guarantee Periods for each
purchase payment or transfer. If you do not select the Guarantee Period for a
purchase payment or transfer, we will assign the shortest Guarantee Period
available under the Contract for such payment or transfer.

Each payment or transfer allocated to a Guarantee Period must be at least $500.
We reserve the right to limit the number of additional purchase payments that
you may allocate to the Fixed Account. Please consult with your representative
for more information.

INTEREST RATES. We will tell you what interest rates and Guarantee Periods we
are offering at a particular time. We may declare different interest rates for
Guarantee Periods of the same length that begin at different times. We will not
change the interest rate that we credit to a particular allocation until the end
of the relevant Guarantee Period.

We have no specific formula for determining the rate of interest that we will
declare initially or in the future. We

                                  14 PROSPECTUS




will set those interest rates based on investment returns available at the time
of the determination. In addition, we may consider various other factors in
determining interest rates including regulatory and tax requirements, our sales
commission and administrative expenses, general economic trends, and competitive
factors. We determine the interest rates to be declared in our sole discretion.
We can neither predict nor guarantee what those rates will be in the future. For
current interest rate information, please contact your representative or
Allstate New York at 1-800-692-4682. The interest rate will never be less than
the minimum guaranteed amount stated in the Contract.

HOW WE CREDIT INTEREST. We will credit interest daily to each amount allocated
to a Guarantee Period at a rate that compounds to the effective annual interest
rate that we declared at the beginning of the applicable Guarantee Period.

The following example illustrates how a purchase payment allocated to the Fixed
Account would grow, given an assumed Guarantee Period and effective annual
interest rate:

TOTAL INTEREST CREDITED DURING GUARANTEE PERIOD = $2,461.82 ($12,461.82-$10,000)

This example assumes no withdrawals during the entire 5 year Guarantee Period.
If you were to make a withdrawal, you may be required to pay a Withdrawal
Charge. In addition, the amount withdrawn may be increased or decreased by a
Market Value Adjustment that reflects changes in interest rates since the time
you invested the amount withdrawn. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10%
federal tax penalty. The hypothetical interest rate is for illustrative purposes
only and is not intended to predict future interest rates to be declared under
the Contract. Actual interest rates declared for any given Guarantee Period may
be more or less than shown above but will never be less than the guaranteed
minimum rate stated in the Contract.

RENEWALS. At least 15 but not more than 45 days prior to the end of each
Guarantee Period, we will mail you a notice asking you what to do with your
money, including the accrued interest. During the 30-day period after the end of
the Guarantee Period, you may:

1)   Take no action. We will automatically apply your money to a new Guarantee
     Period of the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will
     begin on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. The new interest rate
     will be our then current declared rate for a Guarantee Period of that
     length; or

2)   Instruct us to apply your money to one or more new Guarantee Periods of
     your choice. The new Guarantee Period(s) will begin on the day the previous
     Guarantee Period ends. The new interest rate will be our then current
     declared rate for those Guarantee Periods; or

3)   Instruct us to transfer all or a portion of your money to one or more
     Variable Sub-Accounts. We will effect the transfer on the day we receive
     your instructions. We will not adjust the amount transferred to include a
     Market Value Adjustment. We will pay interest from the day the Guarantee
     Period expired until the date of the transfer. The interest will be the
     rate for the shortest Guarantee Period then being offered; or

4)   Withdraw all or a portion of your money. You may be required to pay a
     withdrawal charge, but we will not

                                  15 PROSPECTUS




     adjust the amount withdrawn to include a Market Value Adjustment. You may
     also be required to pay premium taxes and withholding (if applicable). The
     amount withdrawn will be deemed to have been withdrawn on the day the
     previous Guarantee Period ends. Unless you specify otherwise, amounts not
     withdrawn will be applied to a new Guarantee Period of the shortest
     duration available. The new Guarantee Period will begin on the day the
     previous Guarantee Period ends. Withdrawal of earnings are taxed as
     ordinary income, and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an
     additional tax penalty

Under our automatic laddering program ("Automatic Laddering Program"), you may
choose, in advance, to use Guarantee Periods of the same length for all
renewals. You can select the Automatic Laddering Program at any time during the
Accumulation Phase, including on the Issue Date. We will apply renewals to
Guarantee Periods of the selected length until you direct us in writing to stop.
We may stop offering the Automatic Laddering Program at any time. For additional
information on the Automatic Laddering Program, please call our customer service
center at 1-800-692-4682.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT. All withdrawals in excess of the PREFERRED WITHDRAWAL
AMOUNT, and transfers from a Guarantee Period, other than those taken during the
30 day period after such Guarantee Period expires, are subject to a Market Value
Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment also applies when you apply amounts
currently invested in a Guarantee Period to an Income Plan (unless paid or
applied during the 30 day period after such Guarantee Period expires). A
positive Market Value Adjustment will apply to amounts currently invested in a
Guarantee Period that are paid out as death benefits. We will not apply a Market
Value Adjustment to a transfer you make as part of a Dollar Cost Averaging
Program. We also will not apply a Market Value Adjustment to a withdrawal you
make:

..    within the Preferred Withdrawal Amount as described on page 19, or

..    to satisfy the IRS minimum distribution rules for the Contract.

We apply the Market Value Adjustment to reflect changes in interest rates from
the time you first allocate money to a Guarantee Period to the time it is
removed from that Guarantee Period. We calculate the Market Value Adjustment by
comparing the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the Guarantee Period at its
inception to the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period when you remove your money. "TREASURY RATE" means the U.S.
Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported in Federal Reserve Board
Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment may be positive or negative, depending on changes in
interest rates. As such, you bear the investment risk associated with changes in
interest rates. If interest rates increase significantly, the Market Value
Adjustment and any withdrawal charge, premium taxes, and income tax withholding
(if applicable) could reduce the amount you receive upon full withdrawal of your
Contract Value to an amount that is less than the purchase payment plus interest
at the minimum guaranteed interest rate under the Contract.

Generally, if the Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee
Period is higher than the applicable current Treasury Rate for a period equal to
the time remaining in the Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment
will result in a higher amount payable to you or transferred. Conversely, if the
Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee Period is lower than
the applicable Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment will result in a lower amount
payable to you or transferred.

For example, assume that you purchase a Contract and you select an initial
Guarantee Period of 5 years and the 5 year Treasury Rate for that duration is
4.50%. Assume that at the end of 3 years, you make a partial withdrawal. If, at
that later time, the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.20%, then the Market
Value Adjustment will be positive, which will result in an increase in the
amount payable to you. Conversely, if the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.80%,
then the Market Value Adjustment will be negative, which will result in a
decrease in the amount payable to you.

The formula for calculating Market Value Adjustments is set forth in Appendix B
to this prospectus, which also contains additional examples of the application
of the Market Value Adjustment.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: TRANSFERS

TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE

During the Accumulation Phase, you may transfer Contract Value among the
investment alternatives. The minimum amount that you may transfer into a
Guarantee Period is $500. You may request transfers in writing on a form that we
provided or by telephone according to the procedure described below. We
currently do not assess, but reserve the right to assess, a $10 charge on each
transfer in excess of 12 per Contract Year. We treat transfers to or from more
than one Portfolio on the same day as one transfer. Transfers you make as part
of a Dollar Cost Averaging Program or Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program do
not count against the 12 free transfers per Contract Year.

We will process transfer requests that we receive before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
(3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit
Values for that Date. We will process requests completed after 4:00 p.m. Eastern
Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit
Values for the next Valuation Date. The Contract permits us to defer transfers
from the Fixed Account for up to 6 months from the date we receive your request.
If we decide to postpone transfers from the Fixed Account for 10 days or more,
we will pay interest as required by applicable law. Any interest would be
payable from the date we receive the transfer request to the date we make the
transfer.

If you transfer an amount from a Guarantee Period other than during the 30 day
period after such Guarantee Period expires, we will increase or decrease the
amount by a Market Value Adjustment. If any transfer reduces your value in such
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we will treat the request as a transfer of
the entire value in such Guarantee Period.

We reserve the right to waive any transfer fees and restrictions.

TRANSFERS DURING THE PAYOUT PHASE

During the Payout Phase, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts
to change the relative weighting of the Variable Sub-Accounts on which your
variable income payments will be based. In addition, you will have a limited
ability to make transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the
proportion of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may
not, however, convert any portion of your right to receive fixed income payments
into variable income payments.

You may not make any transfers for the first 6 months after the Payout Start
Date. Thereafter, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts or make
transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the proportion of your
income payments consisting of fixed income payments. Your transfers must be at
least 6 months apart.

TELEPHONE TRANSFERS

You may make transfers by telephone by calling 1-800-692-4682, if you first send
us a completed authorization form. The cut off time for telephone transfer
requests is 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time). In the event that
the New York Stock Exchange closes early, i.e., before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
(3:00 p.m. Central Time), or in the event that the Exchange closes early for a
period of time but then reopens for trading on the same day, we will process
telephone transfer requests as of the close of the Exchange on that particular
day. We will not accept telephone requests received at any telephone number
other than the number that appears in this paragraph or received after the close
of trading on the Exchange.

We may suspend, modify or terminate the telephone transfer privilege, as well as
any other electronic or automated means we previously approved, at any time
without notice.

We use procedures that we believe provide reasonable assurance that the
telephone transfers are genuine. For example, we tape telephone conversations
with persons purporting to authorize transfers and request identifying
information. Accordingly, we disclaim any liability for losses resulting from
allegedly unauthorized telephone transfers. However, if we do not take
reasonable steps to help ensure that a telephone authorization is valid, we may
be liable for such losses.

MARKET TIMING & EXCESSIVE TRADING

The Contracts are intended for long-term investment. Market timing and excessive
trading can potentially dilute the value of Variable Sub-Accounts and can
disrupt management of a Portfolio and raise its expenses, which can impair
Portfolio performance and adversely affect your Contract Value. Our policy is
not to accept knowingly any money intended for the purpose of market timing or
excessive trading. Accordingly, you should not invest in the Contract if your
purpose is to engage in market timing or excessive trading, and you should
refrain from such practices if you currently own a Contract.

We seek to detect market timing or excessive trading activity by reviewing
trading activities. Portfolios also may report suspected market-timing or
excessive trading activity to us. If, in our judgment, we determine that the
transfers are part of a market timing strategy or are otherwise harmful to the
underlying Portfolio, we will impose the trading limitations as described below
under "Trading Limitations." Because there is no universally accepted definition
of what constitutes market timing or

                                  17 PROSPECTUS




excessive trading, we will use our reasonable judgment based on all of the
circumstances.

While we seek to deter market timing and excessive trading in Variable
Sub-Accounts, because our procedures involve the exercise of reasonable
judgment, we may not identify or prevent some market timing or excessive
trading. Moreover, imposition of trading limitations is triggered by the
detection of market timing or excessive trading activity, and the trading
limitations are not applied prior to detection of such trading activity.
Therefore, our policies and procedures do not prevent such trading activity
before it is detected. As a result, some investors may be able to engage in
market timing and excessive trading, while others are prohibited, and the
portfolio may experience the adverse effects of market timing and excessive
trading described above.

TRADING LIMITATIONS

We reserve the right to limit transfers among the investment alternatives in any
Contract year, or to refuse any transfer request, if:

..    we believe, in our sole discretion, that certain trading practices, such as
     excessive trading, by, or on behalf of, one or more Contract Owners, or a
     specific transfer request or group of transfer requests, may have a
     detrimental effect on the Accumulation Unit Values of any Variable
     Sub-Account or on the share prices of the corresponding Portfolio or
     otherwise would be to the disadvantage of other Contract Owners; or

..    we are informed by one or more of the Portfolios that they intend to
     restrict the purchase, exchange, or redemption of Portfolio shares because
     of excessive trading or because they believe that a specific transfer or
     group of transfers would have a detrimental effect on the prices of
     Portfolio shares.

In making the determination that trading activity constitutes market timing or
excessive trading, we will consider, among other things:

..    the total dollar amount being transferred, both in the aggregate and in the
     transfer request;

..    the number of transfers you make over a period of time and/or the period of
     time between transfers (note: one set of transfers to and from a Variable
     Sub-Account in a short period of time can constitute market timing);

..    whether your transfers follow a pattern that appears designed to take
     advantage of short term market fluctuations, particularly within certain
     Variable Sub-Account underlying Portfolios that we have identified as being
     susceptible to market timing activities;

..    whether the manager of the underlying Portfolio has indicated that the
     transfers interfere with Portfolio management or otherwise adversely impact
     the Portfolio; and

..    the investment objectives and/or size of the Variable Sub-Account
     underlying Portfolio.

We seek to apply these trading limitations uniformly. However, because these
determinations involve the exercise of discretion, it is possible that we may
not detect some market timing or excessive trading activity. As a result, it is
possible that some investors may be able to engage in market timing or excessive
trading activity, while others are prohibited, and the Portfolio may experience
the adverse effects of market timing and excessive trading described above.

If we determine that a Contract Owner has engaged in market timing or excessive
trading activity, we will restrict that Contract Owner from making future
additions or transfers into the impacted Variable Sub-Account(s). If we
determine that a Contract Owner has engaged in a pattern of market timing or
excessive trading activity involving multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, we will
also require that all future transfer requests be submitted through regular U.S.
mail thereby refusing to accept transfer requests via telephone, facsimile,
Internet, or overnight delivery.

In our sole discretion, we may revise our Trading Limitations at any time as
necessary to better deter or minimize market timing and excessive trading or to
comply with regulatory requirements.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM

Through the Dollar Cost Averaging Program, you may automatically transfer a set
amount every month during the Accumulation Phase from any Variable Sub-Account,
the Six Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account, or the Twelve Month Dollar
Cost Averaging Fixed Account, to any other Variable Sub-Account. You may not use
dollar cost averaging to transfer amounts to the Fixed Account.

We will not charge a transfer fee for transfers made under this Program, nor
will such transfers count against the 12 transfers you can make each Contract
Year without paying a transfer fee.

The theory of dollar cost averaging is that if purchases of equal dollar amounts
are made at fluctuating prices, the aggregate average cost per unit will be less
than the average of the unit prices on the same purchase dates. However,
participation in this Program does not assure you of a greater profit from your
purchases under the Program nor will it prevent or necessarily reduce losses in
a declining market.

Call or write us for instructions on how to enroll.

AUTOMATIC PORTFOLIO REBALANCING PROGRAM

Once you have allocated your money among the Variable Sub-Accounts, the
performance of each Variable Sub-Account may cause a shift in the percentage you
allocated to each Variable Sub-Account. If you select our Automatic Portfolio
Rebalancing Program, we will

                                  18 PROSPECTUS




automatically rebalance the Contract Value in each Variable Sub-Account and
return it to the desired percentage allocations. Money you allocate to the Fixed
Account will not be included in the rebalancing.

We will rebalance your account each quarter according to your instructions. We
will transfer amounts among the Variable Sub-Accounts to achieve the percentage
allocations you specify. You can change your allocations at any time by
contacting us in writing or by telephone. The new allocation will be effective
with the first rebalancing that occurs after we receive your request. We are not
responsible for rebalancing that occurs prior to receipt of your request.

Example:

Assume that you want your initial purchase payment split among 2 Variable
Sub-Accounts. You want 40% to be in the AIM V.I. Balanced - Series I Sub-Account
Variable Sub-Account and 60% to be in the Fidelity VIP Growth - Initial Class
Sub-Account Variable Sub-Account. Over the next 2 months the bond market does
very well while the stock market performs poorly. At the end of the first
quarter, the AIM V.I. Balanced - Series I Sub-Account Variable Sub-Account now
represents 50% of your holdings because of its increase in value. If you choose
to have your holdings rebalanced quarterly, on the first day of the next quarter
we would sell some of your units in the AIM V.I. Balanced - Series I Sub-Account
Variable Sub-Account and use the money to buy more units in the Fidelity VIP
Growth - Initial Class Sub-Account Variable Sub-Account so that the percentage
allocations would again be 40% and 60% respectively.

The Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program is available only during the
Accumulation Phase. The transfers made under the Program do not count towards
the 12 transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee, and are not subject
to a transfer fee.

Portfolio rebalancing is consistent with maintaining your allocation of
investments among market segments, although it is accomplished by reducing your
Contract Value allocated to the better performing segments.

You may not use the Dollar Cost Averaging and automatic Portfolio Rebalancing
programs at the same time.

EXPENSES

As a Contract Owner, you will bear, directly or indirectly, the charges and
expenses described below.

CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE

During the Accumulation Phase, on each Contract Anniversary, we will deduct a
$30 contract maintenance charge from your Contract Value invested in each
Variable Sub-Account in proportion to the amount invested. We also will deduct a
full contract maintenance charge if you withdraw your entire Contract Value,
unless your Contract qualifies for a waiver, described below. During the Payout
Phase, we will deduct the charge proportionately from each income payment.

The charge is for the cost of maintaining each Contract and the Variable
Account. Maintenance costs include expenses we incur in billing and collecting
purchase payments; keeping records; processing death claims, cash withdrawals,
and policy changes; proxy statements; calculating Accumulation Unit Values and
income payments; and issuing reports to Contract Owners and regulatory agencies.
We cannot increase the charge. We will waive this charge if:

..    total purchase payments equal $50,000 or more, or

..    all of your money is allocated to the Fixed Account on a Contract
     Anniversary.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE

We deduct a mortality and expense risk charge daily at an annual rate of 1.15%
of the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts.
The mortality and expense risk charge is for all the insurance benefits
available with your Contract (including our guarantee of annuity rates and the
death benefits), for certain expenses of the Contract, and for assuming the risk
(expense risk) that the current charges will not be sufficient in the future to
cover the cost of administering the Contract. If the charges under the Contract
are not sufficient, then we will bear the loss.

We guarantee the mortality and expense risk charge and we cannot increase it. We
assess the mortality and expense risk charge during both the Accumulation Phase
and the Payout Phase.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE We deduct an administrative expense charge daily
at an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets you have invested in
the Variable Sub-Accounts. We intend this charge to cover actual administrative
expenses that exceed the revenues from the contract maintenance charge. There is
no necessary relationship between the amount of administrative charge imposed on
a given Contract and the amount of expenses that may be attributed to that
Contract. We assess this charge each day during the Accumulation Phase and the
Payout Phase. We guarantee that we will not raise this charge.

                                  19 PROSPECTUS




TRANSFER FEE

We do not currently impose a fee upon transfers among the investment
alternatives. However, we reserve the right to charge $10 per transfer after the
12th transfer in each Contract Year. We will not charge a transfer fee on
transfers that are part of a Dollar Cost Averaging or Automatic Portfolio
Rebalancing Program.

WITHDRAWAL CHARGE We may assess a Withdrawal Charge of up to 7% of the purchase
payment(s) you withdraw in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted
by a Market Value Adjustment. The charge declines by 1% annually to 0% after 7
complete years from the day we receive the purchase payment being withdrawn.
Beginning on January 1, 2004, if you make a withdrawal before the Payout Start
Date, we will apply the Withdrawal Charge percentage in effect on the date of
the withdrawal, or the Withdrawal Charge percentage in effect on the following
day, whichever is lower. A schedule showing how the Withdrawal Charge declines
appears on page 7. During each Contract Year, you can withdraw up to 15% of
purchase payments without paying the Withdrawal Charge. Unused portions of this
15% "PREFERRED WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT" are not carried forward to future Contract
Years.

We determine the Withdrawal Charge by:

..    multiplying the percentage corresponding to the number of complete years
     since we received the purchase payment being withdrawn, times

..    the part of each purchase payment withdrawal that is in excess of the
     Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment.

We will deduct Withdrawal Charges, if applicable, from the amount paid. For
purposes of the Withdrawal Charge, we will treat withdrawals as coming from the
oldest purchase payments first. However, for federal income tax purposes, please
note that withdrawals are considered to have come first from earnings in the
Contract, which means you pay taxes on the earnings portion of your withdrawal.

We do not apply a Withdrawal Charge in the following situations:

..    on the Payout Start Date (a Withdrawal Charge may apply if you elect to
     receive income payments for a specified period of less than 120 months);

..    the death of the Contract Owner or Annuitant (unless the Settlement Value
     is used);

..    withdrawals taken to satisfy IRS required minimum distribution rules for
     the Contract; or

..    withdrawals made after all purchase payments have been withdrawn.

We use the amounts obtained from the Withdrawal Charge to pay sales commissions
and other promotional or distribution expenses associated with marketing the
Contracts. To the extent that the Withdrawal Charge does not cover all sales
commissions and other promotional or distribution expenses, we may use any of
our corporate assets, including potential profit which may arise from the
mortality and expense risk charge or any other charges or fee described above,
to make up any difference.

Withdrawals taken during the Accumulation Phase are generally considered to come
from the earnings in the Contract first. If the Contract is tax-qualified,
generally all withdrawals are treated as distributions of earnings. Withdrawals
of earnings are taxable as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2,
may be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty. Withdrawals may also be
subject to a Market Value Adjustment. You should consult your own tax counsel or
other tax advisers regarding any withdrawals.

PREMIUM TAXES

Currently, we do not make deductions for premium taxes under the Contract
because New York does not charge premium taxes on annuities. We may deduct taxes
that may be imposed in the future from purchase payments or the Contract Value
when the tax is incurred or at a later time.

DEDUCTION FOR VARIABLE ACCOUNT INCOME TAXES

We are not currently making a provision for such taxes. In the future, however,
we may make a provision for taxes if we determine, in our sole discretion, that
we will incur a tax as a result of the operation of the Variable Account. We
will deduct for any taxes we incur as a result of the operation of the Variable
Account, whether or not we previously made a provision for taxes and whether or
not it was sufficient. Our status under the Internal Revenue Code is briefly
described in the Taxes section.

OTHER EXPENSES

Each Portfolio deducts advisory fees and other expenses from its assets. You
indirectly bear the charges and expenses of the Portfolios whose shares are held
by the Variable Sub-Accounts. These fees and expenses are described in the
accompanying prospectus for the Portfolios. For a summary of the maximum and
minimum amounts for these charges and expenses, see pages 7-8. We may receive
compensation from the investment advisers or administrators of the Portfolios
for administrative services we provide to the Portfolios.

                                  20 PROSPECTUS




ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

You can withdraw some or all of your Contract Value at any time prior to the
Payout Start Date. Full or partial withdrawals also are available under limited
circumstances on or after the Payout Start Date. See "Income Plans" on page 22.

The amount payable upon withdrawal is the Contract Value next computed after we
receive the request for a withdrawal at our customer service center, adjusted by
any Market Value Adjustment, less any Withdrawal Charges, contract maintenance
charges, income tax withholding, and any premium taxes. We will pay withdrawals
from the Variable Account within 7 days of receipt of the request, subject to
postponement in certain circumstances.

You can withdraw money from the Variable Account or the Fixed Account. To
complete a partial withdrawal from the Variable Account, we will cancel
Accumulation Units in an amount equal to the withdrawal and any applicable
Withdrawal Charge and premium taxes.

Withdrawals taken during the Accumulation Phase are generally considered to come
from the earnings in the Contract first. If the Contract is tax-qualified,
generally all withdrawals are treated as distributions of earnings. Withdrawals
of earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

You have the opportunity to name the investment alternative(s) from which you
are taking the withdrawal. If none is specified, we will deduct your withdrawal
pro-rata from the investment alternatives according to the value of your
investments therein.

In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a time. You also may withdraw a
lesser amount if you are withdrawing your entire interest in a Variable Sub-
Account.

If you request a total withdrawal, you must return your Contract to us.

POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS

We may postpone the payment of any amounts due from the Variable Account under
the Contract if:

1.   The New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than usual weekends or
     holidays, or trading on the Exchange is otherwise restricted;

2.   An emergency exists as defined by the SEC; or

3.   The SEC permits delay for your protection.

In addition, we may delay payments or transfers from the Fixed Account for up to
6 months or a shorter period if required by law. If we delay payment or transfer
for 10 business days or more, we will pay interest as required by law. Any
interest would be payable from the date we receive the withdrawal request to the
date we make the payment or transfer.

SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM

You may choose to receive systematic withdrawal payments on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis at any time prior to the Payout Start
Date. The minimum amount of each systematic withdrawal is $50. At our
discretion, systematic withdrawals may not be offered in conjunction with the
Dollar Cost Averaging Program or the Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program.

Depending on fluctuations in the net asset value of the Variable Sub-Accounts
and the value of the Fixed Account, systematic withdrawals may reduce or even
exhaust the Contract Value. Please consult your tax advisor before taking any
withdrawal.

We will make systematic withdrawal payments to you or your designated payee. We
may modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program and charge a processing
fee for the service. If we modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program,
existing systematic withdrawal payments will not be affected.

MINIMUM CONTRACT VALUE

If your request for a partial withdrawal would reduce the amount in any
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we will treat it as a request to withdraw
the entire amount invested in such Guarantee Period. If your request for a
partial withdrawal would reduce your Contract Value to less than $1,000, we may
treat it as a request to withdraw your entire Contract Value. Your Contract will
terminate if you withdraw all of your Contract Value. We will, however, ask you
to confirm your withdrawal request before terminating your Contract. Before
terminating any Contract whose value has been reduced by withdrawals to less
than $1,000, we will inform you in writing of our intention to terminate your
Contract and give you at least 30 days in which to make an additional purchase
payment to restore your Contract's value to the contractual minimum of $1,000.
If we terminate your Contract, we will distribute to you its Contract Value,
adjusted by any applicable Market Value Adjustment, less withdrawal and other
charges and applicable taxes.

INCOME PAYMENTS

PAYOUT START DATE

The Payout Start Date is the day that we apply your money to an Income Plan. The
Payout Start Date must be no later than the day the Annuitant reaches age 90, or
the 10th Contract Anniversary, if later. You may change the Payout Start Date at
any time by notifying us in

                                  21 PROSPECTUS




writing of the change at least 30 days before the scheduled Payout Start Date.
Absent a change, we will use the Payout Start Date stated in your Contract.

INCOME PLANS

An "Income Plan" is a series of payments on a scheduled basis to you or to
another person designated by you. You may choose and change your choice of
Income Plan until 30 days before the Payout Start Date. If you do not select an
Income Plan, we will make income payments in accordance with Income Plan 1 with
guaranteed payments for 10 years if you have designated only one annuitant or
Income Plan 2 with guaranteed payments for 10 years if you have designated a
joint Annuitant. After the Payout Start Date, you may not make withdrawals
(except as described below) or change your choice of Income Plan.

Three Income Plans are available under the Contract. Each is available to
provide:

..    fixed income payments;

..    variable income payments; or

..    a combination of the two.

A portion of each payment will be considered taxable and the remaining portion
will be a non-taxable return of your investment in the Contract, which is also
called the "basis". Once the investment in the Contract is depleted, all
remaining payments will be fully taxable. If the Contract is tax-qualified,
generally, all payments will be fully taxable. Taxable payments taken prior to
age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

The three Income Plans are:

INCOME PLAN 1 - LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under this plan, we make
periodic income payments for at least as long as the Annuitant lives. If the
Annuitant dies before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we
will continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required
by the Contract. The number of months guaranteed may be 0 months, or range from
60 to 360 months.

INCOME PLAN 2 - JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under
this plan, we make periodic income payments for at least as long as either the
Annuitant or the joint Annuitant is alive. If both the Annuitant and the joint
Annuitant die before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we will
continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required by
the Contract. The number of months guaranteed may be 0 months, or range from 60
to 360 months.

INCOME PLAN 3 - GUARANTEED PAYMENT FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD (5 YEARS TO 30 YEARS).
Under this plan, we make periodic income payments for the period you have
chosen. These payments do not depend on the Annuitant's life. Income payments
for less than 120 months may be subject to a withdrawal charge. We will deduct
the mortality and expense risk charge from the Variable Sub-Account assets that
support variable income payments even though we may not bear any mortality risk.

The length of any guaranteed payment period under your selected Income Plan
generally will affect the dollar amounts of each income payment. As a general
rule, longer guarantee periods result in lower income payments, all other things
being equal. For example, if you choose an Income Plan with payments that depend
on the life of the Annuitant but with no minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments, the income payments generally will be greater than the income payments
made under the same Income Plan with a minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments.

If you choose Income Plan 1 or 2, or, if available, another Income Plan with
payments that continue for the life of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant, we may
require proof of age and sex of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant before starting
income payments, and proof that the Annuitant or joint Annuitant is alive before
we make each payment.

Please note that under such Income Plans, if you elect to take no minimum
guaranteed payments, it is possible that the payee could receive only 1 income
payment if the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant both die before the second
income payment, or only 2 income payments if they die before the third income
payment, and so on.

Generally, you may not make withdrawals after the Payout Start Date. One
exception to this rule applies if you are receiving variable income payments
that do not depend on the life of the Annuitant (such as under Income Plan 3).
In that case you may terminate all or part of the Variable Account portion of
the income payments at any time and receive a lump sum equal to the present
value of the remaining variable income payments associated with the amount
withdrawn. To determine the present value of any remaining variable income
payments being withdrawn, we use a discount rate equal to the assumed annual
investment rate that we use to compute such variable income payments. The
minimum amount you may withdraw under this feature is $1,000. A withdrawal
charge may apply. You will also have a limited ability to make transfers from
the Variable Account portion of the income payments to increase the proportion
of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may not,
however, convert any portion of your right to receive fixed income payments into
variable income payments. We deduct applicable premium taxes, if any, from the
Contract Value at the Payout Start Date. New York does not currently impose a
premium tax.

We may make other Income Plans available. You may obtain information about them
by writing or calling us.

You must apply at least the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the Payout
Start Date to fixed income payments. If you wish to apply any portion of your
Fixed

                                  22 PROSPECTUS




Account balance to provide variable income payments, you should plan ahead and
transfer that amount to the Variable Sub-Accounts prior to the Payout Start
Date. If you do not tell us how to allocate your Contract Value among fixed and
variable income payments, we will apply your Contract Value in the Variable
Account to variable income payments and your Contract Value in the Fixed Account
to fixed income payments.

We will apply your Contract Value, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment, less
applicable taxes to your Income Plan on the Payout Start Date. If the Contract
Value is less than $2,000 or not enough to provide an initial payment of at
least $20, and state law permits, we may:

..    terminate the Contract and pay you the Contract Value, adjusted by any
     Market Value Adjustment and less any applicable taxes, in a lump sum
     instead of the periodic payments you have chosen, or

..    reduce the frequency of your payments so that each payment will be at least
     $20.

VARIABLE INCOME PAYMENTS

The amount of your variable income payments depends upon the investment results
of the Variable Sub-Accounts you select, the premium taxes you pay, if any, the
age and sex of the Annuitant, and the Income Plan you choose. We guarantee that
the payments will not be affected by (a) actual mortality experience and (b) the
amount of our administration expenses.

We cannot predict the total amount of your variable income payments. Your
variable income payments may be more or less than your total purchase payments
because (a) variable income payments vary with the investment results of the
underlying Portfolio and (b) the Annuitant could live longer or shorter than we
expect based on the tables we use.

In calculating the amount of the periodic payments in the annuity tables in the
Contract, we assumed an annual investment rate of 3%. If the actual net
investment return of the Variable Sub-Accounts you choose is less than this
assumed investment rate, then the dollar amount of your variable income payments
will decrease. The dollar amount of your variable income payments will increase,
however, if the actual net investment return exceeds the assumed investment
rate. The dollar amount of the variable income payments stays level if the net
investment return equals the assumed investment rate. Please refer to the
Statement of Additional Information for more detailed information as to how we
determine variable income payments.

FIXED INCOME PAYMENTS

We guarantee income payment amounts derived from the Fixed Account for the
duration of the Income Plan. We calculate the fixed income payments by:

1.   adjusting the portion of the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the
     Payout Start Date by any applicable Market Value Adjustment;

2.   deducting any applicable premium tax; and

3.   applying the resulting amount to the greater of (a) the appropriate value
     from the income payment table in your Contract or (b) such other value as
     we are offering at that time.

We may defer making fixed income payments for a period of up to 6 months or such
shorter time as state law may require. If we defer payments for 10 business days
or more, we will pay interest as required by law from the date we receive the
withdrawal request to the date we make payment.

CERTAIN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Contracts offered by this prospectus contain income payment tables that
provide for different payments to men and women of the same age, except in
states that require unisex tables. We reserve the right to use income payment
tables that do not distinguish on the basis of sex to the extent permitted by
law. In certain employment-related situations, employers are required by
applicable law to use the same income payment tables for men and women.
Accordingly, if the Contract is to be used in connection with an
employment-related retirement or benefit plan, and we do not offer unisex
annuity tables in your state, you should consult with legal counsel as to
whether the purchase of a Contract is appropriate. For qualified plans, where it
is appropriate, we may use income payment tables that do not distinguish on the
basis of sex.

DEATH BENEFITS

We will pay the death proceeds prior to the Payout Start Date on:

(a)  the death of any Contract Owner, or

(b)  the death of the Annuitant, if the Contract is owned by a non-living
     person.

We will pay the death proceeds to the new Contract Owner as determined
immediately after the death. The new Contract Owner would be a surviving
Contract Owner or, if none, the Beneficiary(ies). In the case of a Contract
owned by a non-living owner, upon the death of the Annuitant, we will pay the
death proceeds to the current Contract Owner.

We will determine the value of the death proceeds as of the end of the Valuation
Date on which we receive a complete request for settlement of the death
proceeds. If we receive a request after 3 p.m. Central Time on a Valuation Date,
we will process the request as of the end of the following Valuation Date.

                                  23 PROSPECTUS




A complete request for settlement of the death proceeds must include DUE PROOF
OF DEATH. We will accept the following documentation as "Due Proof of Death:"

..    a certified copy of the death certificate,

..    a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the
     finding of death, or

..    any other proof acceptable to us.

DEATH PROCEEDS

If we receive a complete request for settlement of the death proceeds within 180
days of the date of the death of any Contract Owner, or the death of the
Annuitant, if the Contract is owned by a non-living owner, the death proceeds
are equal to the Death Benefit described below. Otherwise, the death proceeds
are equal to the greater of the Contract Value or the Settlement Value.

We reserve the right to extend, on a non-discriminatory basis, the 180-day
period in which the death proceeds will equal the Death Benefit as described
below. This right applies only to the amount payable as death proceeds and in no
way restricts when a claim may be filed.

If we do not receive a complete request for settlement of the death proceeds
within 180 days of the date of death, the death proceeds are equal to the
greater of:

1)   the Contract Value as of the date we determine the death proceeds; or

2)   the Settlement Value as of the date we determine the death proceeds.

DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT

Prior to the Payout Start Date, the Death Benefit is equal to the greatest of:

1.   the Contract Value as of the date we receive a complete request for
     settlement of the death proceeds, or

2.   the SETTLEMENT VALUE (that is, the amount payable on a full withdrawal of
     Contract Value) on the date we determine the death proceeds, or

3.   the Contract Value on the Death Benefit Anniversary immediately preceding
     the date we receive a complete request for settlement of the death
     proceeds, adjusted by any purchase payments, withdrawal adjustment as
     defined below, and charges made since that Death Benefit Anniversary. A
     "DEATH BENEFIT ANNIVERSARY" is every seventh Contract Anniversary beginning
     with the Issue Date. For example, the Issue Date, 7th and 14th Contract
     Anniversaries are the first three Death Benefit Anniversaries, or

4.   the greatest of the Anniversary Values as of the date we receive a complete
     request for settlement of the death proceeds. An "ANNIVERSARY VALUE" is
     equal to the Contract Value on a Contract Anniversary, increased by
     purchase payments made since that Anniversary and reduced by the amount of
     any withdrawal adjustment, as defined below, since that anniversary.
     Anniversary Values will be calculated for each Contract Anniversary prior
     to the earlier of:

(i)  the date we determine the death benefit, or

(ii) the deceased's 75th birthday or 5 years after the Issue Date, if later.

The withdrawal adjustment is equal to (a) divided by (b), with the result
multiplied by (c), where:

(a)  = the withdrawal amount,

(b)  = the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal, and

(c)  = the value of the applicable death benefit alternative immediately prior
       to the withdrawal.

See Appendix C for an example representative of how the withdrawal adjustment
applies.

In calculating the Settlement Value, the amount in each individual Guarantee
Period may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment
will apply to amounts in a Guarantee Period, unless we calculate the Settlement
Value during the 30-day period after the expiration of the Guarantee Period.
Also, the Settlement Value will reflect the deduction of any applicable
Withdrawal Charges, contract maintenance charges, and premium taxes. Contract
maintenance charges will be pro rated for the part of the Contract Year elapsed
as of the date we determine the Settlement Value, unless your Contract qualifies
for a waiver of such charges described in the "Contract Maintenance Charge"
section above.

DEATH BENEFIT PAYMENTS
DEATH OF OWNER

1.   If your spouse is the sole surviving Contract Owner, or is the sole
     Beneficiary:

a.   Your spouse may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump sum; or

b.   Your spouse may elect to receive the Death Proceeds paid out under one of
     the Income Plans (described in "Income Payments" above), subject to the
     following conditions:

The Payout Start Date must be within one year of your date of death. Income
payments must be payable:

i.   over the life of your spouse; or

ii.  for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of your spouse; or

iii. over the life of your spouse with a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to
     30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of your spouse.

c.   If your spouse does not elect one of these options, the Contract will
     continue in the Accumulation

                                  24 PROSPECTUS




Phase as if the death had not occurred. If the Contract is continued in the
Accumulation Phase, the following conditions apply: The Contract Value of the
continued Contract will be the Death Proceeds. Unless otherwise instructed by
the continuing spouse, the excess, if any, of the Death Proceeds over the
Contract Value will be allocated to the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account.
This excess will be allocated in proportion to your Contract Value in those
Variable Sub-Accounts as of the end of the Valuation Date on which we receive
the complete request for settlement of the Death Proceeds (the next Valuation
Date if we receive the request after 3:00 p.m. Central Time), except that any
portion of this excess attributable to the Fixed Account Options will be
allocated to the money market Variable Sub-Account. Within 30 days of the date
the Contract is continued, your surviving spouse may choose one of the following
transfer alternatives without incurring a transfer fee:

i.   transfer all or a portion of the excess among the Variable Sub-accounts;

ii.  transfer all or a portion of the excess into the Fixed Account and begin a
     new Guarantee Period; or

iii. transfer all or a portion of the excess into a combination of Variable
     Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account.

Any such transfer does not count as one of the free transfers allowed each
Contract Year and is subject to any minimum allocation amount specified in the
Contract.

The surviving spouse may make a single withdrawal of any amount within one year
of the date of your death without incurring a Withdrawal Charge or Market Value
Adjustment.

Prior to the Payout Start Date, the Death Proceeds of the continued Contract
will be described under "Death Benefit Amount."

Only one spousal continuation is allowed under the Contract.

2.   If the new Contract Owner is not your spouse but is a living person or if
     there are multiple living-person new Contract Owners:

a.   The new Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump
     sum; or

b.   The new Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds paid out
     under one of the Income Plans (described in "Income Payments" on page 21),
     subject to the following conditions:

The Payout Start Date must be within one year of your date of death. Income
payments must be payable:

i.   over the life of the new Contract Owner; or

ii.  for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of the new Contract Owner; or

iii. over the life of the new Contract Owner with a guaranteed number of
     payments from 5 to 30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of the
     new Contract Owner.

c.   If the new Contract Owner does not elect one of the options above, then the
     new Contract Owner must receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years
     of your date of death. The Contract Value will equal the amount of the
     Death Proceeds as determined as of the end of the Valuation Date on which
     we receive a complete request for settlement of the Death Proceeds (the
     next Valuation Date if we receive the request after 3:00 p.m. Central
     Time). Unless otherwise instructed by the new Contract Owner, the excess,
     if any, of the Death Proceeds over the Contract Value will be allocated to
     the money market Variable Sub-Account. Henceforth, the new Contract Owner
     may make transfers (as described in "Transfers During the Payout Phase" on
     page 18) during this 5 year period. No additional purchase payments may be
     added to the Contract under this election. Withdrawal Charges will be
     waived for any withdrawals made during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon the death of the Contract
Owner.

If the new Contract Owner dies prior to the omplete liquidation of the Contract
Value, then the new Contract Owner's named Beneficiary(ies) will receive the
greater of the Settlement Value or the remaining Contract Value. This amount
must be liquidated as a lump sum within 5 years of the date of the original
Contract Owner's death.

3.   If the new Contract Owner is a corporation or other type of non-living
     person:

a.   The new Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump
     sum; or

b.   If the new Contract Owner does not elect the option above, then the new
     Contract Owner must receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of
     your date of death. The Contract Value will equal the amount of the Death
     Proceeds as determined as of the end of the Valuation Date on which we
     receive a complete request for settlement of the Death Proceeds (the next
     Valuation Date if we receive the request after 3:00 p.m. Central Time).
     Unless otherwise instructed by the new Contract Owner, the excess, if any,
     of the Death Proceeds over the Contract Value will be allocated to the
     money market Variable Sub-Account. Henceforth, the new Contract Owner may
     make transfers (as described in "Transfers During the Payout Phase" on page
     18) during this 5 year period.

No additional purchase payments may be added to the Contract under this
election. Withdrawal charges will be waived during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to make additional options available to the new Contract
Owner upon the death of the Contract Owner.

If any new Contract Owner is a non-living person, all new Contract Owners will
be considered to be non-living persons for the above purposes. Under any of
these options, all ownership rights, subject to any restrictions previously
placed upon the Beneficiary, are available to the new Contract Owner from the
date of your death to the date on which the Death Proceeds is paid.

DEATH OF ANNUITANT

If the Annuitant who is not also the Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout
Start Date, the following apply:

1.   If the Contract Owner is a living person, then the Contract will continue
     with a new Annuitant, who will be:

a.   the youngest Contract Owner; otherwise

b.   the youngest Beneficiary. You may change the Annuitant before the Payout
     Start Date.

2.   If the Contract Owner is a non-living person:

a.   The Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump sum;
     or

b.   If the Contract Owner does not elect the option above, then the Contract
     Owner must receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of the
     Annuitant's date of death. The Contract Value will equal the amount of the
     Death Proceeds as determined as of the end of the Valuation Date on which
     we receive a complete request for settlement of the Death Proceeds (the
     next Valuation Date if we receive the request after 3:00 p.m. Central
     Time). Unless otherwise instructed by the Contract Owner, the excess, if
     any, of the Death Proceeds over the Contract Value will be allocated to the
     money market Variable Sub-Account. Henceforth, the Contract Owner may make
     transfers (as described in "Transfers During the Payout Phase" on page 18)
     during this 5 year period.

No additional purchase payments may be added to the Contract under this
election. Withdrawal Charges will be waived during this 5 year period.

                                  25 PROSPECTUS




We reserve the right to make additional options available to the Contract Owner
upon the death of the Annuitant.

Under any of these options, all ownership rights are available to the non-living
Contract Owner from the date of the Annuitant's death to the date on which the
Death Proceeds is paid.

MORE INFORMATION

ALLSTATE NEW YORK

Allstate New York is the issuer of the Contract. Allstate New York is a stock
life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of New York.
Allstate New York was incorporated in 1967 and was known as "Financial Life
Insurance Company" from 1967 to 1978. From 1978 to 1984, Allstate New York was
known as "PM Life Insurance Company." Since 1984 the company has been known as
"Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York."

Allstate New York is currently licensed to operate in New York. Our home office
is located 100 Motor Parkway, Hauppauge, New York 11788-5107. Our service center
is located in Vernon Hills, Illinois.

Allstate New York is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance
Company ("Allstate Life") , a stock life insurance company incorporated under
the laws of the State of Illinois. Allstate Life is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Allstate Insurance Company, a stock property-liability insurance company
incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois. With the exception of the
directors qualifying shares, all of the outstanding capital stock of Allstate
Insurance Company is owned by The Allstate Corporation.

THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT

Allstate New York established the Allstate Life of New York Separate Account A
on December 15, 1995. We have registered the Variable Account with the SEC as a
unit investment trust. The SEC does not supervise the management of the Variable
Account or Allstate New York.

We own the assets of the Variable Account. The Variable Account is a segregated
asset account under New York law. That means we account for the Variable
Account's income, gains and losses separately from the results of our other
operations. It also means that only the assets of the Variable Account that are
in excess of the reserves and other Contract liabilities with respect to the
Variable Account are subject to liabilities relating to our other operations.

Our obligations arising under the Contracts are general corporate obligations of
Allstate New York.

The Variable Account consists of multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, 26 of which are
available through the Contracts. Each Variable Sub-Account invests in a
corresponding Portfolio. We may add new Variable Sub-Accounts or eliminate one
or more of them, if we believe marketing, tax, or investment conditions so
warrant. We do not guarantee the investment performance of the Variable Account,
its Sub-Accounts or the Portfolios. We

                                  26 PROSPECTUS




may use the Variable Account to fund our other annuity contracts. We will
account separately for each type of annuity contract funded by the Variable
Account.

THE PORTFOLIOS

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS. We automatically reinvest all
dividends and capital gains distributions from the Portfolios in shares of the
distributing Portfolio at their net asset value.

VOTING PRIVILEGES. As a general matter, you do not have a direct right to vote
the shares of the Portfolios held by the Variable Sub-Accounts to which you have
allocated your Contract Value. Under current law, however, you are entitled to
give us instructions on how to vote those shares on certain matters. Based on
our present view of the law, we will vote the shares of the Portfolios that we
hold directly or indirectly through the Variable Account in accordance with
instructions that we receive from Contract owners entitled to give such
instructions.

As a general rule, before the Payout Start Date, the Contract Owner or anyone
with a voting interest is the person entitled to give voting instructions. The
number of shares that a person has a right to instruct will be determined by
dividing the Contract Value allocated to the applicable Variable Sub-Account by
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Portfolio as of the record
date of the meeting. After the Payout Start Date, the person receiving income
payments has the voting interest. The payee's number of votes will be determined
by dividing the reserve for such Contract allocated to the applicable Variable
Sub-Account by the net asset value per share of the corresponding Portfolio. The
votes decrease as income payments are made and as the reserves for the Contract
decrease.

We will vote shares attributable to Contracts for which we have not received
instructions, as well as shares attributable to us, in the same proportion as we
vote shares for which we have received instructions, unless we determine that we
may vote such shares in our own discretion. We will apply voting instructions to
abstain on any item to be voted on a pro-rata basis to reduce the votes eligible
to be cast.

We reserve the right to vote Portfolio shares as we see fit without regard to
voting instructions to the extent permitted by law. If we disregard voting
instructions, we will include a summary of that action and our reasons for that
action in the next semi-annual financial report we send to you.

CHANGES IN PORTFOLIOS. If the shares of any of the Portfolios are no longer
available for investment by the Variable Account or if, in our judgment, further
investment in such shares is no longer desirable in view of the purposes of the
Contract, we may eliminate that Portfolio and substitute shares of another
eligible investment portfolio. Any substitution of securities will comply with
the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940. We also may add new
Variable Sub-Accounts that invest in additional portfolios. We will notify you
in advance of any changes.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Certain of the Portfolios sell their shares to Variable
Accounts underlying both variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts.

It is conceivable that in the future it may be unfavorable for variable life
insurance Variable Accounts and variable annuity Variable Accounts to invest in
the same Portfolio. The boards of directors of these Portfolios monitor for
possible conflicts among Variable Accounts buying shares of the Portfolios.

Conflicts could develop for a variety of reasons. For example, differences in
treatment under tax and other laws or the failure by a Variable Account to
comply with such laws could cause a conflict. To eliminate a conflict, a
Portfolio's board of directors may require a Variable Account to withdraw its
participation in a Portfolio. A Portfolio's net asset value could decrease if it
had to sell investment securities to pay redemption proceeds to a Variable
Account withdrawing because of a conflict.

THE CONTRACT

DISTRIBUTION. ALFS, Inc. ("ALFS"), located at 3100 Sanders Road, Northbrook,
Illinois 60062, serves as principal underwriter of the Contracts. ALFS is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company. ALFS is a registered
broker-dealer under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
("Exchange Act"), and is a member of the NASD.

Contracts described in this prospectus are sold by registered representatives of
broker-dealers who are our licensed insurance agents, either individually or
through an incorporated insurance agency. Commissions paid to broker-dealers may
vary, but we estimate that the total commissions paid on all Contract sales to
broker-dealers will not exceed 8.5% of any purchase payments. These commissions
are intended to cover distribution expenses. From time to time, we may offer
additional sales incentives of up to 1% of purchase payments to broker-dealers
who maintain certain sales volume levels.

Allstate New York does not pay ALFS a commission for distribution of the
Contracts. The underwriting agreement with ALFS provides that we will reimburse
ALFS for any liability to Contract Owners arising out of services rendered or
Contracts issued.

ADMINISTRATION. We have primary responsibility for all administration of the
Contracts and the Variable Account. We provide the following administrative
services, among others:

..    issuance of the Contracts;

..    maintenance of Contract Owner records;

..    Contract Owner services;

..    calculation of unit values;

..    maintenance of the Variable Account; and

                                  27 PROSPECTUS




..    preparation of Contract Owner reports.

We will send you Contract statements and transaction confirmations at least
annually. The annual statement details values and specific Contract data for
each particular Contract. You should notify us promptly in writing of any
address change. You should read your statements and confirmations carefully and
verify their accuracy. You should contact us promptly if you have a question
about a periodic statement. We will investigate all complaints and make any
necessary adjustments retroactively, but you must notify us of a potential error
within a reasonable time after the date of the questioned statement. If you wait
too long, we will make the adjustment as of the date that we receive notice of
the potential error.

We also will provide you with additional periodic and other reports, information
and prospectuses as may be required by federal securities laws.

NON-QUALIFIED ANNUITIES HELD WITHIN A QUALIFIED PLAN

If you use the Contract within an employer sponsored qualified retirement plan,
the plan may impose different or additional conditions or limitations on
withdrawals, waivers of withdrawal charges, death benefits, Payout Start Dates,
income payments, and other Contract features. In addition, adverse tax
consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions and other
conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan administrator for
more information. We no longer issue deferred annuities to employer sponsored
qualified retirement plans.

LEGAL MATTERS

All matters of New York law pertaining to the Contracts, including the validity
of the Contracts and Allstate New York's right to issue such Contracts under New
York insurance law, have been passed upon by Michael J. Velotta, General Counsel
of Allstate New York.

                                  28 PROSPECTUS




TAXES

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS GENERAL AND IS NOT INTENDED AS TAX ADVICE. ALLSTATE
NEW YORK MAKES NO GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX TREATMENT OF ANY CONTRACT OR
TRANSACTION INVOLVING A CONTRACT.

Federal, state, local and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of
distributions under an annuity contract depend on your individual circumstances.
If you are concerned about any tax consequences with regard to your individual
circumstances, you should consult a competent tax adviser.

TAXATION OF ALLSTATE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK

Allstate New York is taxed as a life insurance company under Part I of
Subchapter L of the Code. Since the Variable Account is not an entity separate
from Allstate New York, and its operations form a part of Allstate New York, it
will not be taxed separately. Investment income and realized capital gains of
the Variable Account are automatically applied to increase reserves under the
Contract. Under existing federal income tax law, Allstate New York believes that
the Variable Account investment income and capital gains will not be taxed to
the extent that such income and gains are applied to increase the reserves under
the Contract. Accordingly, Allstate New York does not anticipate that it will
incur any federal income tax liability attributable to the Variable Account, and
therefore Allstate New York does not intend to make provisions for any such
taxes. If Allstate New York is taxed on investment income or capital gains of
the Variable Account, then Allstate New York may impose a charge against the
Variable Account in order to make provision for such taxes.

TAXATION OF VARIABLE ANNUITIES IN GENERAL

TAX DEFERRAL. Generally, you are not taxed on increases in the Contract Value
until a distribution occurs. This rule applies only where:

..    the Contract Owner is a natural person,

..    the investments of the Variable Account are "adequately diversified"
     according to Treasury Department regulations, and

..    Allstate New York is considered the owner of the Variable Account assets
     for federal income tax purposes.

NON-NATURAL OWNERS. Non-natural owners are also referred to as Non Living Owners
in this prospectus. As a general rule, annuity contracts owned by non-natural
persons such as corporations, trusts, or other entities are not treated as
annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. The income on such contracts
does not enjoy tax deferral and is taxed as ordinary income received or accrued
by the non-natural owner during the taxable year.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE NON-NATURAL OWNER RULE. There are several exceptions to the
general rule that annuity contracts held by a non-natural owner are not treated
as annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. Contracts will generally
be treated as held by a natural person if the nominal owner is a trust or other
entity which holds the contract as agent for a natural person. However, this
special exception will not apply in the case of an employer who is the nominal
owner of an annuity contract under a non-Qualified deferred compensation
arrangement for its employees. Other exceptions to the non-natural owner rule
are: (1) contracts acquired by an estate of a decedent by reason of the death of
the decedent; (2) certain qualified contracts; (3) contracts purchased by
employers upon the termination of certain qualified plans; (4) certain contracts
used in connection with structured settlement agreements; and (5) immediate
annuity contracts, purchased with a single premium, when the annuity starting
date is no later than a year from purchase of the annuity and substantially
equal periodic payments are made, not less frequently than annually, during the
annuity period.

GRANTOR TRUST OWNED ANNUITY. Contracts owned by a grantor trust are considered
owned by a non-natural owner. Grantor trust owned contracts receive tax deferral
as described in the Exceptions to the Non-Natural Owner Rule section. In
accordance with the Code, upon the death of the annuitant, the death benefit
must be paid. According to your Contract, the Death Benefit is paid to the
surviving Contract Owner. Since the trust will be the surviving Contract Owner
in all cases, the Death Benefit will be payable to the trust notwithstanding any
beneficiary designation on the annuity contract. A trust, including a grantor
trust, has two options for receiving any death benefits: 1) a lump sum payment;
or 2) payment deferred up to five years from date of death.

DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. For a Contract to be treated as an annuity for
federal income tax purposes, the investments in the Variable Account must be
"adequately diversified" consistent with standards under Treasury Department
regulations. If the investments in the Variable Account are not adequately
diversified, the Contract will not be treated as an annuity contract for federal
income tax purposes. As a result, the income on the Contract will be taxed as
ordinary income received or accrued by the Contract owner during the taxable
year. Although Allstate New York does not have control over the Portfolios or
their investments, we expect the Portfolios to meet the diversification
requirements.

OWNERSHIP TREATMENT. The IRS has stated that a contract owner will be considered
the owner of separate account assets if he possesses incidents of ownership in
those assets, such as the ability to exercise investment control over the
assets. At the time the diversification regulations were issued, the Treasury
Department

                                  29 PROSPECTUS




announced that the regulations

do not provide guidance concerning circumstances in which investor control of
the separate account investments may cause a Contract owner to be treated as the
owner of the separate account. The Treasury Department also stated that future
guidance would be issued regarding the extent that owners could direct
sub-account investments without being treated as owners of the underlying assets
of the separate account.

Your rights under the Contract are different than those described by the IRS in
private and published rulings in which it found that Contract owners were not
owners of separate account assets. For example, if your contract offers more
than twenty (20) investment alternatives you have the choice to allocate
premiums and contract values among a broader selection of investment
alternatives than described in such rulings. You may be able to transfer among
investment alternatives more frequently than in such rulings. These differences
could result in you being treated as the owner of the Variable Account. If this
occurs, income and gain from the Variable Account assets would be includible in
your gross income. Allstate New York does not know what standards will be set
forth in any regulations or rulings which the Treasury Department may issue. It
is possible that future standards announced by the Treasury Department could
adversely affect the tax treatment of your Contract. We reserve the right to
modify the Contract as necessary to attempt to prevent you from being considered
the federal tax owner of the assets of the Variable Account. However, we make no
guarantee that such modification to the Contract will be successful.

TAXATION OF PARTIAL AND FULL WITHDRAWALS. If you make a partial withdrawal under
a Non-Qualified Contract, amounts received are taxable to the extent the
Contract Value, without regard to surrender charges, exceeds the investment in
the Contract. The investment in the Contract is the gross premium paid for the
contract minus any amounts previously received from the Contract if such amounts
were properly excluded from your gross income. If you make a full withdrawal
under a Non-Qualified Contract, the amount received will be taxable only to the
extent it exceeds the investment in the Contract.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS. Generally, the rule for income taxation of annuity
payments received from a Non-Qualified Contract provides for the return of your
investment in the Contract in equal tax-free amounts over the payment period.
The balance of each payment received is taxable. For fixed annuity payments, the
amount excluded from income is determined by multiplying the payment by the
ratio of the investment in the Contract (adjusted for any refund feature or
period certain) to the total expected value of annuity payments for the term of
the Contract. If you elect variable annuity payments, the amount excluded from
taxable income is determined by dividing the investment in the Contract by the
total number of expected payments. The annuity payments will be fully taxable
after the total amount of the investment in the Contract is excluded using these
ratios. If any variable payment is less than the excludable amount you should
contact a competent tax advisor to determine how to report any unrecovered
investment. The federal tax treatment of annuity payments is unclear in some
respects. As a result, if the IRS should provide further guidance, it is
possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as taxable could be
different. If you die, and annuity payments cease before the total amount of the
investment in the Contract is recovered, the unrecovered amount will be allowed
as a deduction for your last taxable year.

WITHDRAWALS AFTER THE PAYOUT START DATE. Federal tax law is unclear regarding
the taxation of any additional withdrawal received after the Payout Start Date.
It is possible that a greater or lesser portion of such a payment could be
taxable than the amount we determine.

DISTRIBUTION AT DEATH RULES. In order to be considered an annuity contract for
federal income tax purposes, the Contract must provide:

..    if any Contract Owner dies on or after the Payout Start Date but before the
     entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, the remaining portion
     of such interest must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
     method of distribution being used as of the date of the Contract Owner's
     death;

..    if any Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the entire
     interest in the Contract will be distributed within 5 years after the date
     of the Contract Owner's death. These requirements are satisfied if any
     portion of the Contract Owner's interest that is payable to (or for the
     benefit of) a designated Beneficiary is distributed over the life of such
     Beneficiary (or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of
     the Beneficiary) and the distributions begin within 1 year of the Contract
     Owner's death. If the Contract Owner's designated Beneficiary is the
     surviving spouse of the Contract Owner, the Contract may be continued with
     the surviving spouse as the new Contract Owner;

..    if the Contract Owner is a non-natural person, then the Annuitant will be
     treated as the Contract Owner for purposes of applying the distribution at
     death rules. In addition, a change in the Annuitant on a Contract owned by
     a non-natural person will be treated as the death of the Contract Owner.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY DEATH BENEFITS. Death Benefit amounts are included in income
as follows:

..    if distributed in a lump sum, the amounts are taxed in the same manner as a
     total withdrawal, or

..    if distributed under an Income Plan, the amounts are taxed in the same
     manner as annuity payments.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS. A 10% penalty tax applies to the taxable
amount of any

                                  30 PROSPECTUS




premature distribution from a non-Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally
applies to any distribution made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2.
However, no penalty tax is incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or becoming totally
     disabled,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made under an immediate annuity, or

..    attributable to investment in the Contract before August 14, 1982.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS. With respect to non-Qualified Contracts
using substantially equal periodic payments or immediate annuity payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the Contract Owner's attaining age 59 1/2 would be
subject to a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax
applied. The tax for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty
tax that would have been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the
years in which the exception was used. A material modification does not include
permitted changes described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a
competent tax advisor prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal
periodic payment stream.

TAX FREE EXCHANGES UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 1035. A 1035 exchange is
a tax-free exchange of a non-qualified life insurance contract, endowment
contract or annuity contract into a non-Qualified annuity contract. The contract
owner(s) must be the same on the old and new contract. Basis from the old
contract carries over to the new contract so long as we receive that information
from the relinquishing company. If basis information is never received, we will
assume that all exchanged funds represent earnings and will allocate no cost
basis to them.

PARTIAL EXCHANGES. The IRS has issued a ruling that permits partial exchanges of
annuity contracts. Under this ruling, if you take a withdrawal from a receiving
or relinquishing annuity contract within 24 months of the partial exchange, then
special aggregation rules apply for purposes of determining the taxable amount
of a distribution. The IRS has issued limited guidance on how to aggregate and
report these distributions. The IRS is expected to provide further guidance; as
a result, it is possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as
taxable could be different. Your Contract may not permit partial exchanges.

TAXATION OF OWNERSHIP CHANGES. If you transfer a non-Qualified Contract without
full and adequate consideration to a person other than your spouse (or to a
former spouse incident to a divorce), you will be taxed on the difference
between the Contract Value and the investment in the Contract at the time of
transfer. Any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or pledge) of the
Contract Value is taxed as a withdrawal of such amount or portion and may also
incur the 10% penalty tax.

AGGREGATION OF ANNUITY CONTRACTS. The Code requires that all non-Qualified
deferred annuity contracts issued by Allstate New York (or its affiliates) to
the same Contract Owner during any calendar year be aggregated and treated as
one annuity contract for purposes of determining the taxable amount of a
distribution.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING

Generally, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 10% from all non-annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out of
withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold the required 10% of the taxable
amount. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using the wage
withholding rates for all annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out
of withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold using married with three
exemptions as the default. If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is
provided, we will automatically withhold using single with zero exemptions as
the default. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien.
Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if covered by an income tax treaty
between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's country of residence if the payee
provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number on a fully completed Form W-8BEN.
A U.S. taxpayer identification number is a social security number or an
individual taxpayer identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS
to non-resident alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social
security number. The U.S. does not have a tax treaty with all

                                  31 PROSPECTUS




countries nor do all tax treaties provide an exclusion or lower withholding rate
for annuities.

TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

The income on tax sheltered annuity (TSA) and IRA investments is tax deferred,
and the income from annuities held by such plans does not receive any additional
tax deferral. You should review the annuity features, including all benefits and
expenses, prior to purchasing an annuity as a TSA or IRA. Tax Qualified
Contracts are contracts purchased as or in connection with:

..    Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs) under Code Section 408(b);

..    Roth IRAs under Code Section 408A;

..    Simplified Employee Pension (SEP IRA) under Code Section 408(k);

..    Savings Incentive Match Plans for Employees (SIMPLE IRA) under Code Section
     408(p);

..    Tax Sheltered Annuities under Code Section 403(b);

..    Corporate and Self Employed Pension and Profit Sharing Plans under Code
     Section 401; and

..    State and Local Government and Tax-Exempt Organization Deferred
     Compensation Plans under Code Section 457.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the retirement plans listed above or to modify the Contract
to conform with tax requirements. If you use the Contract within an employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan, the plan may impose different or additional
conditions or limitations on withdrawals, waiver of charges, death benefits,
Payout Start Dates, income payments, and other Contract features. In addition,
adverse tax consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions
and other conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan
administrator for more information. Allstate New York no longer issues deferred
annuities to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

The tax rules applicable to participants with tax qualified annuities vary
according to the type of contract and the terms and conditions of the
endorsement. Adverse tax consequences may result from certain transactions such
as excess contributions, premature distributions, and, distributions that do not
conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules. Allstate New
York can issue an individual retirement annuity on a rollover or transfer of
proceeds from a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer sponsored retirement plan under
which the decedent's surviving spouse is the beneficiary. Allstate New York does
not offer an individual retirement annuity that can accept a transfer of funds
for any other, non-spousal, beneficiary of a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Please refer to your Endorsement for IRAs or 403(b) plans, if applicable, for
additional information on your death settlement options. In the case of certain
qualified plans, the terms of the Qualified Plan Endorsement and the plans may
govern the right to benefits, regardless of the terms of the Contract.

TAXATION OF WITHDRAWALS FROM AN INDIVIDUALLY OWNED TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACT. If
you make a partial withdrawal under a Tax Qualified Contract other than a Roth
IRA, the portion of the payment that bears the same ratio to the total payment
that the investment in the Contract (i.e., nondeductible IRA contributions)
bears to the Contract Value, is excluded from your income. We do not keep track
of nondeductible contributions, and generally all tax reporting of distributions
from Tax Qualified Contracts other than Roth IRAs will indicate that the
distribution is fully taxable.

"Qualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are not included in gross income.
"Qualified distributions" are any distributions made more than five taxable
years after the taxable year of the first contribution to any Roth IRA and which
are:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made to a beneficiary after the Contract Owner's death,

..    attributable to the Contract Owner being disabled, or

..    made for a first time home purchase (first time home purchases are subject
     to a lifetime limit of $10,000).

"Nonqualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are treated as made from
contributions first and are included in gross income only to the extent that
distributions exceed contributions.

REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS. Generally, Tax Qualified Contracts (excluding
Roth IRAs) require minimum distributions upon reaching age 70 1/2. Failure to
withdraw the required minimum distribution will result in a 50% tax penalty on
the shortfall not withdrawn from the Contract. Not all income plans offered
under the Contract satisfy the requirements for minimum distributions. Because
these distributions are required under the Code and the method of calculation is
complex, please see a competent tax advisor.

THE DEATH BENEFIT AND TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Pursuant to the Code and IRS
regulations, an IRA (e.g., traditional IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA and SIMPLE IRA)
may not invest in life insurance contracts. However, an IRA may provide a death
benefit that equals the greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value.
The Contract offers a death benefit that in certain circumstances may exceed the
greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value. We believe that the
Death Benefits offered by your Contract do not constitute life insurance under
these regulations.

                                  32 PROSPECTUS




It is also possible that certain death benefits that offer enhanced earnings
could be characterized as an incidental death benefit. If the death benefit were
so characterized, this could result in current taxable income to a Contract
Owner. In addition, there are limitations on the amount of incidental death
benefits that may be provided under qualified plans, such as in connection with
a TSA or employer sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the qualified plans listed above.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. A 10%
penalty tax applies to the taxable amount of any premature distribution from a
Tax Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally applies to any distribution
made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2. However, no penalty tax is
incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or total disability,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made after separation from service after age 55 (does not apply to IRAs),

..    made pursuant to an IRS levy,

..    made for certain medical expenses,

..    made to pay for health insurance premiums while unemployed (applies only
     for IRAs),

..    made for qualified higher education expenses (applies only for IRAs), and

..    made for a first time home purchase (up to a $10,000 lifetime limit and
     applies only for IRAs).

During the first 2 years of the individual's participation in a SIMPLE IRA,
distributions that are otherwise subject to the premature distribution penalty,
will be subject to a 25% penalty tax.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. With respect
to Tax Qualified Contracts using substantially equal periodic payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the taxpayer's attaining age 59 1/2 would be subject to
a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax applied. The tax
for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty tax that would have
been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the years in which the
exception was used. A material modification does not include permitted changes
described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a competent tax advisor
prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal periodic payment stream.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Generally, Allstate New York
is required to withhold federal income tax at a rate of 10% from all
non-annuitized distributions that are not considered "eligible rollover
distributions." The customer may elect out of withholding by completing and
signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we will
automatically withhold the required 10% from the taxable amount. In certain
states, if there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also
mandatory. Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 20% on all "eligible rollover distributions" unless you elect to make a
"direct rollover" of such amounts to an IRA or eligible retirement plan.
Eligible rollover distributions generally include all distributions from Tax
Qualified Contracts, including TSAs but excluding IRAs, with the exception of:

..    required minimum distributions, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over a period of at
     least 10 years, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over the life (joint
     lives) of the participant (and beneficiary), or,

..    hardship distributions.

For all annuitized distributions that are not subject to the 20% withholding
requirement, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using
the wage withholding rates. The customer may elect out of withholding by
completing and signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we
will automatically withhold using married with three exemptions as the default.
If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is provided, we will automatically
withhold using single with zero exemptions as the default. In certain states, if
there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien or to
certain other 'foreign persons'. Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if
covered by an income tax treaty between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's
country of residence if the payee provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number
on a fully completed Form W-8BEN. A U.S. taxpayer

                                  33 PROSPECTUS




identification number is a social security number or an individual taxpayer
identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS to non-resident
alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social security number. The
U.S. does not have a tax treaty with all countries nor do all tax treaties
provide an exclusion or lower withholding rate for annuities.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408(b) permits eligible
individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an
Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA). Individual Retirement Annuities are subject
to limitations on the amount that can be contributed and on the time when
distributions may commence. Certain distributions from other types of qualified
retirement plans may be "rolled over" on a tax-deferred basis into an Individual
Retirement Annuity.

ROTH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408A permits eligible
individuals to make nondeductible contributions to an individual retirement
program known as a Roth Individual Retirement Annuity. Roth Individual
Retirement Annuities are subject to limitations on the amount that can be
contributed and on the time when distributions may commence.

Subject to certain limitations, a traditional Individual Retirement Account or
Annuity may be converted or "rolled over" to a Roth Individual Retirement
Annuity. The income portion of a conversion or rollover distribution is taxable
currently, but is exempted from the 10% penalty tax on premature distributions.

ANNUITIES HELD BY INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS (COMMONLY KNOWN AS CUSTODIAL
IRAS). Code Section 408 permits a custodian or trustee of an Individual
Retirement Account to purchase an annuity as an investment of the Individual
Retirement Account. If an annuity is purchased inside of an Individual
Retirement Account, then the Annuitant must be the same person as the beneficial
owner of the Individual Retirement Account.

Generally, the death benefit of an annuity held in an Individual Retirement
Account must be paid upon the death of the Annuitant. However, in most states,
the Contract permits the custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement
Account to continue the Contract in the accumulation phase, with the Annuitant's
surviving spouse as the new Annuitant, if the following conditions are met:

1)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account is the owner
     of the annuity and has the right to the death proceeds otherwise payable
     under the Contract;

2)   The deceased Annuitant was the beneficial owner of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

3)   We receive a complete request for settlement for the death of the
     Annuitant; and

4)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account provides us
     with a signed certification of the following:

(a)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse is the sole beneficiary of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

(b)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse has elected to continue the Individual
     Retirement Account as his or her own Individual Retirement Account; and

(c)  The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account has continued
     the Individual Retirement Account pursuant to the surviving spouse's
     election.

SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION IRA. Code Section 408(k) allows eligible employers
to establish simplified employee pension plans for their employees using
individual retirement annuities. These employers may, within specified limits,
make deductible contributions on behalf of the employees to the individual
retirement annuities. Employers intending to use the Contract in connection with
such plans should seek competent tax advice.

SAVINGS INCENTIVE MATCH PLANS FOR EMPLOYEES (SIMPLE IRA). Code Section 408(p)
allows eligible employers with 100 or fewer employees to establish SIMPLE
retirement plans for their employees using individual retirement annuities. In
general, a SIMPLE IRA consists of a salary deferral program for eligible
employees and matching or nonelective contributions made by employers. Employers
intending to purchase the Contract as a SIMPLE IRA should seek competent tax and
legal advice.

TO DETERMINE IF YOU ARE ELIGIBLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE LISTED IRAS
(TRADITIONAL, ROTH, SEP, OR SIMPLE), PLEASE REFER TO IRS PUBLICATION 590 AND
YOUR COMPETENT TAX ADVISOR.

TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES. Code Section 403(b) provides tax-deferred retirement
savings plans for employees of certain non-profit and educational organizations.
Under Section 403(b), any contract used for a 403(b) plan must provide that
distributions attributable to salary reduction contributions made after
12/31/88, and all earnings on salary reduction contributions, may be made only
on or after the date the employee:

..    attains age 59 1/2,

..    severs employment,

..    dies,

..    becomes disabled, or

..    incurs a hardship (earnings on salary reduction contributions may not be
     distributed on account of hardship).

These limitations do not apply to withdrawals where Allstate New York is
directed to transfer some or all of the Contract Value to another 403(b) plan.

Generally, we do

                                  34 PROSPECTUS




not accept funds in 403(b) contracts that are subject to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

CORPORATE AND SELF-EMPLOYED PENSION AND PROFIT SHARING PLANS.

Section 401(a) of the Code permits corporate employers to establish various
types of tax favored retirement plans for employees. Self-employed individuals
may establish tax favored retirement plans for themselves and their employees
(commonly referred to as "H.R.10" or "Keogh"). Such retirement plans may permit
the purchase of annuity contracts. Allstate New York no longer issues annuity
contracts to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

There are two owner types for contracts intended to qualify under Section
401(a): a qualified plan fiduciary or an annuitant owner.

..    A qualified plan fiduciary exists when a qualified plan trust that is
     intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code is the owner. The
     qualified plan trust must have its own tax identification number and a
     named trustee acting as a fiduciary on behalf of the plan. The annuitant
     should be the person for whose benefit the contract was purchased.

..    An annuitant owner exists when the tax identification number of the owner
     and annuitant are the same, or the annuity contract is not owner by a
     qualified plan trust. The annuitant should be the person for whose benefit
     the contract was purchased.

If a qualified plan fiduciary is the owner of the contract, the qualified plan
must be the beneficiary so that death benefits from the annuity are distributed
in accordance with the terms of the qualified plan. Annuitant owned contracts
require that the beneficiary be the annuitant's spouse (if applicable), which is
consistent with the required IRS language for qualified plans under Section
401(a). A completed Annuitant Owned Qualified Plan Designation of Beneficiary
form is required in order to change the beneficiary of an annuitant owned
Qualified Plan contract.

STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION DEFERRED COMPENSATION

PLANS. Section 457 of the Code permits employees of state and local governments
and tax-exempt organizations to defer a portion of their compensation without
paying current taxes. The employees must be participants in an eligible deferred
compensation plan. In eligible governmental plans, all assets and income must be
held in a trust/ custodial account/annuity contract for the exclusive benefit of
the participants and their beneficiaries. To the extent the Contracts are used
in connection with a non-governmental eligible plan, employees are considered
general creditors of the employer and the employer as owner of the Contract has
the sole right to the proceeds of the Contract. Under eligible 457 plans,
contributions made for the benefit of the employees will not be includible in
the employees' gross income until distributed from the plan. Allstate New York
no longer issues annuity contracts to employer sponsored qualified retirement
plans. Contracts that have been previously sold to State and Local government
and Tax-Exempt organization Deferred Compensation Plans will be administered
consistent with the rules for contracts intended to qualify under Section
401(a).

APPENDIX B MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

The Market Value Adjustment is based on the following:

I = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the applicable Guarantee Period
for the week preceding the establishment of the Guarantee Period.

N = the number of whole and partial years from the date we receive the
withdrawal, transfer, or death benefit request, or from the Payout Start Date,
to the end of the Guarantee Period; and

J = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to N years for the week preceding the
receipt of the withdrawal, transfer, death benefit, or income payment request.
If a note for a maturity of length N is not available, a weighted average will
be used.

"Treasury Rate" means the U.S. Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported
in Federal Reserve Board Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment factor is determined from the following formula:

..9 X (I - J) X N

To determine the Market Value Adjustment, we will multiply the Market Value
Adjustment factor by the amount transferred (in excess of the Free Withdrawal
Amount) paid as a death benefit, or applied to an Income Plan, from a Guarantee
Period at any time other than during the 30 day period after such Guarantee
Period expires.

DEATH BENEFITS         If you die before the PAYOUT START DATE, we will pay the
                       death benefit described in the Contract.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFERS              Before the Payout Start Date, you may transfer your
                       Contract value ("CONTRACT VALUE") among the investment
                       alternatives, with certain restrictions. Transfers to the
                       Fixed Account must be at least $500.

                       We do not currently impose a fee upon transfers. However,
                       we reserve the right to charge $10 per transfer after the
                       12th transfer in each "Contract Year," which we measure
                       from the date we issue your Contract or a Contract
                       anniversary ("CONTRACT ANNIVERSARY").
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WITHDRAWALS            You may withdraw some or all of your Contract Value at
                       anytime during the Accumulation Phase. Full or partial
                       withdrawals also are available under limited
                       circumstances on or after the Payout Start Date.

                       In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a time
                       ($1,000 for withdrawals made during the Payout Phase).
                       Withdrawals taken during the Accumulation Phase are
                       generally considered to come from the earnings in the
                       Contract first. If the Contract is tax-qualified,
                       generally all withdrawals are treated as distributions of
                       earnings. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
                       income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject
                       to an additional 10% federal tax penalty. A withdrawal
                       charge and MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT also may apply.

HOW THE CONTRACT WORKS

The Contract basically works in two ways.

First, the Contract can help you (we assume you are the CONTRACT OWNER) save for
retirement because you can invest in up to 27 investment alternatives and
generally pay no federal income taxes on any earnings until you withdraw them.
You do this during what we call the "ACCUMULATION PHASE" of the Contract. The
Accumulation Phase begins on the date we issue your Contract (we call that date
the "ISSUE DATE") and continues until the Payout Start Date, which is the date
we apply your money to provide income payments. During the Accumulation Phase,
you may allocate your purchase payments to any combination of the Variable
Sub-Accounts and/or the Fixed Account. If you invest in the Fixed Account, you
will earn a fixed rate of interest that we declare periodically. If you invest
in any of the Variable Sub-Accounts, your investment return will vary up or down
depending on the performance of the corresponding Portfolios.

Second, the Contract can help you plan for retirement because you can use it to
receive retirement income for life and/ or for a pre-set number of years, by
selecting one of the income payment options (we call these "INCOME PLANS")
described on page 22. You receive income payments during what we call the
"PAYOUT PHASE" of the Contract, which begins on the Payout Start Date and
continues until we make the last payment required by the Income Plan you select.
During the Payout Phase, if you select a fixed income payment option, we
guarantee the amount of your payments, which will remain fixed. If you select a
variable income payment option, based on one or more of the Variable
Sub-Accounts, the amount of your payments will vary up or down depending on the
performance of the corresponding Portfolios. The amount of money you accumulate
under your Contract during the Accumulation Phase and apply to an Income Plan
will determine the amount of your income payments during the Payout Phase.

The timeline below illustrates how you might use your Contract.

As the Contract Owner, you exercise all of the rights and privileges provided by
the Contract. If you die, any surviving Contract Owner, or if there is none, the
BENEFICIARY will exercise the rights and privileges provided by the Contract.
See "The Contract." In addition, if you die before the Payout Start Date, we
will pay a death benefit to any surviving Contract Owner or, if none, to your
Beneficiary. See "Death Benefits."

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the
Contracts with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. These
costs include Contract owner transaction expenses, Contract fees, Variable
Account annual expenses, and Portfolio fees and expenses.

The example shows the dollar amount that you would bear directly or indirectly
if you:

..    invested $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated,

..    earned a 5% annual return on your investment, and

..    surrendered your Contract, or you began receiving income payments for a
     specified period of less than 120 months, at the end of each time period.

THE EXAMPLES DO NOT INCLUDE ANY TAXES OR TAX PENALTIES YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO
PAY IF YOU SURRENDER YOUR CONTRACT.

The first line of the example assumes that the maximum fees and expenses of any
of the Portfolios are charged. The second line of the example assumes that the
minimum fees and expenses of any of the Portfolios are charged. Your actual
expenses may be higher or lower than those shown below, because of variations in
a Portfolio's expense ratio from year to year.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To measure the value of your investment in the Variable Sub-Accounts during the
Accumulation Phase, we use a unit of measure we call the "ACCUMULATION UNIT."
Each Variable Sub-Account has a separate value for its Accumulation Units we
call "ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE." Accumulation Unit Value is analogous to, but not
the same as, the share price of a mutual fund.

Attached as Appendix A to this prospectus are tables showing the Accumulation
Unit Values of each Variable Sub-Account since the date the Contracts were first
offered. To obtain a fuller picture of each Variable Sub-Account's finances,
please refer to the Variable Account's financial statements contained in the
Statement of Additional Information. The financial statements of Allstate New
York also appear in the Statement of Additional Information.

THE CONTRACT

CONTRACT OWNER

The SelectDirections(SM) Variable Annuity is a contract between you, the
Contract Owner, and Allstate New York, a life insurance company. As the Contract
Owner, you may exercise all of the rights and privileges provided to you by the
Contract. That means it is up to you to select or change (to the extent
permitted):

..    the investment alternatives during the Accumulation and Payout Phases,

..    the amount and timing of your purchase payments and withdrawals,

..    the programs you want to use to invest or withdraw money,

..    the income payment plan you want to use to receive retirement income,

..    the Annuitant (either yourself or someone else) on whose life the income
     payments will be based,

..    the Beneficiary or Beneficiaries who will receive the benefits that the
     Contract provides when the last surviving Contract Owner dies, and

..    any other rights that the Contract provides.

If you die prior to the Payout Start Date, the new Contract Owner will be the
surviving Owner. If there is no surviving Owner, the new Contract Owner will be
the Beneficiary(ies) as described in the Beneficiary provision. The new Contract
Owner may exercise the rights and privileges provided by the Contract, except
that if the new Contract Owner took ownership as the Beneficiary, the new
Contract Owner's rights will be subject to any restrictions previously placed
upon the Beneficiary.

The Contract cannot be jointly owned by both a non-living person and a living
person. If the Owner is a Grantor Trust, the Contract Owner will be considered a
non-living person for purposes of the Death of Owner and Death of Annuitant
provisions of your Contract. The maximum age of the oldest Contract Owner cannot
exceed 85 as of the date we receive the completed application. Changing
ownership of this Contract may cause adverse tax consequences and may not be
allowed under qualified plans. Please consult with a competent tax advisor prior
to making a request for a change of Contract Owner.

The Contract can alo be purchased as an IRA or TSA (also known as 403(b)). The
endorsements required to qualify these annuities under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended, ("Code") may limit or modify your rights and privileges
under the Contract.

ANNUITANT

The Annuitant is the individual whose life determines the amount and duration of
income payments (other than under Income Plans with guaranteed payments for a
specified period). You initially designate an Annuitant in your application. The
maximum age of the oldest Annuitant cannot exceed 85 as of the date we receive
the completed application. If the Contract Owner is a living person you may
change the Annuitant prior to the Payout Start Date. In our discretion, we may
permit you to designate a joint Annuitant, who is a second person on whose life
income payments depend, on the Payout Start Date.

If the Annuitant dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the new Annuitant will be:

..    the youngest Contract Owner, if living, otherwise

..    the youngest Beneficiary.

BENEFICIARY

The Beneficiary is the person who may elect to receive the death benefit or
become the new Contract Owner subject to the Death of Owner provision if the
sole surviving Contract Owner dies before the Payout Start Date. See "Death
Benefits" on page 24. If the sole surviving Contract Owner dies after the Payout
Start Date, the Beneficiary will receive any guaranteed income payments
scheduled to continue.

You may name one or more primary and contingent Beneficiaries when you apply for
a Contract. The primary Beneficiary is the Beneficiary(ies) who is first
entitled to receive benefits under the Contract upon the death of the sole
surviving Contract Owner. The contingent Beneficiary is the Beneficiary(ies)
entitled to receive benefits under the Contract when all primary

                                  9 PROSPECTUS




Beneficiaries predecease the sole surviving Contract Owner.

You may restrict income payments to Beneficiaries by providing us a written
request. Once we accept the written request, the change or restriction will take
effect as of the date you signed the request. Any change is subject to any
payment we make or other action we take before we accept the change.

You may change or add Beneficiaries at any time by writing to us, unless you
have designated an irrevocable Beneficiary. We will provide a change of
Beneficiary form to be signed and filed with us. After we accept the form, the
change of Beneficiary will be effective as of the date you signed the form,
whether or not the Annuitant is living when we receive the notice. Each change
is subject to any payment made by us or any other action we take before we
accept the change. Accordingly, if you wish to change your Beneficiary, you
should deliver your written notice to us promptly.

If you do not name a Beneficiary or, if the named Beneficiary is no longer
living and there are no other surviving Beneficiaries, the new Beneficiary will
be:

..    your spouse or, if he or she is no longer alive,

..    your surviving children equally, or if you have no surviving children,

..    your estate.

If more than one Beneficiary survives you, we will divide the death benefit
among your Beneficiaries according to your most recent written instructions. If
you have not given us written instructions, we will pay the death benefit in
equal amounts to the surviving Beneficiaries.

MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT

Only an Allstate New York officer may approve a change in or waive any provision
of the Contract. Any change or waiver must be in writing. None of our agents has
the authority to change or waive the provisions of the Contract. We may not
change the terms of the Contract without your consent, except to conform the
Contract to applicable law or changes in the law. If a provision of the Contract
is inconsistent with state law, we will follow state law.

ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign any interest in a Contract as collateral or security for a
loan. However, you may assign periodic income payments under the Contract prior
to the Payout Start Date. No Beneficiary may assign benefits under the Contract
until they are due. We will not be bound by any assignment until the assignor
signs it and files it with us. We are not responsible for the validity of any
assignment. Federal law prohibits or restricts the assignment of benefits under
many types of qualified plans and the terms of such plans may themselves contain
restrictions on assignments. An assignment may also result in taxes or tax
penalties. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR ATTORNEY BEFORE TRYING TO ASSIGN YOUR
CONTRACT.

PURCHASES

MINIMUM PURCHASE PAYMENTS

Your initial purchase payment must be at least $3,000 ($2,000 for a Qualified
Contract). All subsequent purchase payments must be $100 ($500 for allocation to
the Fixed Account or the Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account) or more. You may
make purchase payments at any time prior to the Payout Start Date. We reserve
the right to limit the maximum amount of purchase payments, or reduce the
minimum purchase payment we will accept. We reserve the right to reject any
application.

AUTOMATIC ADDITIONS PROGRAM

You may make subsequent purchase payments of at least $100 ($500 for allocation
to the Fixed Account) by automatically transferring amounts from your bank
account. Please consult with your Personal Financial Representative for detailed
information.

ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS

At the time you apply for a Contract, you must decide how to allocate your
purchase payments among the investment alternatives. The allocation you specify
on your application will be effective immediately. All allocations must be in
whole percents that total 100% or in whole dollars. You can change your
allocations by notifying us in writing. We reserve the right to limit the
availability of the investment alternatives.

We will allocate your purchase payments to the investment alternatives according
to your most recent instructions on file with us. Unless you notify us in
writing otherwise, we will allocate subsequent purchase payments according to
the allocation for the previous purchase payment. We will effect any change in
allocation instructions at the time we receive, in good order, written notice of
the change.

We will credit the initial purchase payment that accompanies your completed
application to your Contract within 2 business days after we receive the payment
at our service center. If your application is incomplete, we will ask you to
complete your application within 5 business days. If you do so, we will credit
your initial purchase payment to your Contract within that 5 business day
period. If you do not, we will return your purchase payment at the end of the 5
business day period unless you expressly allow us to hold it until you complete
the application. We will credit subsequent purchase payments to the Contract at
the close of the business day on which we receive the purchase payment at our
service

center located in Lincoln, Nebraska (mailing address: P.O. Box 82656, Lincoln,
NE 68501-2656).

We are open for business each day Monday through Friday that the New York Stock
Exchange is open for business. We also refer to these days as "VALUATION DATES."
Our business day closes when the New York Stock Exchange closes, usually 4:00
p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time). If we receive your purchase payment
after 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date, we
will credit your purchase payment using the Accumulation Unit Values computed on
the next Valuation Date.

RIGHT TO CANCEL

You may cancel the Contract by returning it to us within the Cancellation
Period, which is the 10 day period after you receive the Contract (60 days if
you are exchanging another contract for the Contract described in this
prospectus). You may return it by delivering it or mailing it to us. If you
exercise this "RIGHT TO CANCEL," the Contract terminates and we will pay you the
full amount of your purchase payments allocated to the Fixed Account. Upon
cancellation, as permitted by federal or state law, we will return your purchase
payments allocated to the Variable Account after an adjustment to the extent
federal or state law permits to reflect investment gain or loss that occurred
from the date of allocation through the date of cancellation. If your Contract
is qualified under Code Section 408(b), we will refund the greater of any
purchase payment or the Contract Value.

CONTRACT VALUE

On the Issue Date, the Contract Value is equal to the initial purchase payment.
Your Contract Value at any other time during the Accumulation Phase is equal to
the sum of the value as of the most recent Valuation Date of your Accumulation
Units in the Variable Sub-Accounts you have selected, plus the value of your
investment in the Fixed Account.

ACCUMULATION UNITS

To determine the number of Accumulation Units of each Variable Sub-Account to
credit to your Contract, we divide (i) the amount of the purchase payment or
transfer you have allocated to a Variable Sub-Account by (ii) the Accumulation
Unit Value of that Variable Sub-Account next computed after we receive your
payment or transfer. For example, if we receive a $10,000 purchase payment
allocated to a Variable Sub-Account when the Accumulation Unit Value for the
Sub-Account is $10, we would credit 1,000 Accumulation Units of that Variable
Sub-Account to your Contract. Withdrawals and transfers from a Variable
Sub-Account would, of course, reduce the number of Accumulation Units of that
Sub-Account allocated to your Contract.

ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE

As a general matter, the Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account
will rise or fall to reflect:

..    changes in the share price of the Portfolio in which the Variable
     Sub-Account invests, and

     administrative expense charge, and any provision for taxes that have
     accrued since we last calculated the Accumulation Unit Value.

We determine contract maintenance charges, withdrawal charges, and transfer fees
(currently waived) separately for each Contract. They do not affect Accumulation
Unit Value. Instead, we obtain payment of those charges and fees by redeeming
Accumulation Units. For details on how we calculate Accumulation Unit Value,
please refer to the Statement of Additional Information.

We determine a separate Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account on
each Valuation Date.

YOU SHOULD REFER TO THE PROSPECTUSES FOR THE PORTFOLIOS THAT ACCOMPANY THIS
PROSPECTUS FOR A DESCRIPTION OF HOW THE ASSETS OF EACH PORTFOLIO ARE VALUED,
SINCE THAT DETERMINATION DIRECTLY BEARS ON THE ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE OF THE
CORRESPONDING VARIABLE SUB-ACCOUNT AND, THEREFORE, YOUR CONTRACT VALUE.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: THE FIXED ACCOUNT

You may allocate all or a portion of your purchase payments to the Fixed Account
Options. We will credit a minimum annual interest rate of 3% to money you
allocate to any of the Fixed Account Options. Please consult with your
representative for current information. The Fixed Account supports our insurance
and annuity obligations. The Fixed Account consists of our general assets other
than those in segregated asset accounts. We have sole discretion to invest the
assets of the Fixed Account, subject to applicable law. Any money you allocate
to the Fixed Account Option does not entitle you to share in the investment
experience of the Fixed Account.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTIONS

SIX MONTH DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION

Under this Option, you may establish a Dollar Cost Averaging Program allocating
purchase payments to the Six Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Option
("Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option"). We will credit interest to purchase
payments you allocate to this Option for six months at the current rate in
effect at the time of allocation. We will credit interest daily at a rate that
will compound at the annual interest rate we guaranteed at the time of
allocation.

We will follow your instructions in transferring amounts monthly from the Six
Month DCA Fixed Account Option. You must transfer all of your money out of the
Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option to the Variable Sub-Accounts in six equal
monthly installments. If you discontinue the Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option
before the end of the transfer period, we will transfer the remaining balance in
this Option to the Van Kampen LIT Money Market Variable Sub-Account unless you
request a different investment alternative. No transfers are permitted into the
Six Month DCA Fixed Account.

For each purchase payment allocated to this Option, your first monthly transfer
will occur at the end of the first month following such purchase payment. If we
do not receive an allocation from you within one month of the date of payment,
we will transfer the payment plus associated interest to the Van Kampen LIT
Money Market Variable Sub-Account in equal monthly installments. Transferring
Account Value to the Van Kampen LIT Money Market Variable Sub-Account in this
manner may not be consistent with the theory of dollar cost averaging described
on page 19.

TWELVE MONTH DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION

Under this Option, you may establish a Dollar Cost Averaging Program by
allocating purchase payments to the Twelve Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed
Account Option ("Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account Option"). We will credit
interest to purchase payments you allocate to this Option for twelve months at
the current rate in effect at the time of allocation. We will credit interest
daily at a rate that will compound at the annual interest rate we guaranteed at
the time of allocation.

We will follow your instructions in transferring amounts monthly from the Twelve
Month DCA Fixed Account Option. You must transfer all of your money out of the
Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account Option to the Variable Sub-Accounts in twelve
equal monthly installments. If you discontinue the Dollar Cost Averaging Option
before the end of the transfer period, we will transfer the remaining balance in
this Option to the Van Kampen LIT Money Market Variable Sub-Account unless you
request a different investment alternative. No transfers are permitted into the
Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account.

For each purchase payment allocated to this Option, your first monthly transfer
will occur at the end of the first month following such purchase payment. If we
do not receive an allocation from you within one month of the date of payment,
we will transfer the payment plus associated interest to the Van Kampen LIT
Money Market Variable Sub-Account in equal monthly installments. Transferring
Account Value to the Van Kampen LIT Money Market Variable Sub-Account in this
manner may not be consistent with the theory of dollar cost averaging described
on page 19.

At the end of the transfer period, any nominal amounts remaining in the Six
Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account or the Twelve Month Term Dollar Cost
Averaging Fixed Account will be allocated to the Van Kampen LIT Money Market
Variable Sub-Account.

Transfers out of the Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account Options do not count
towards the 12 transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee.

INVESTMENT RISK

We bear the investment risk for all amounts allocated to the Six Month DCA Fixed
Account Option and the Twelve Month DCA Fixed Account Option. That is because we
guarantee the current interest rates we credit to the amounts you allocate to
either of these Options, which will never be less than the minimum guaranteed
rate in the Contract. Currently, we determine, in our sole discretion, the
amount of interest credited in excess of the guaranteed rate.

We may declare more than one interest rate for different monies based upon the
date of allocation to the Six Month DCA Fixed Account Option and the Twelve
Month DCA Fixed Account Option. For current rate information, please contact
your representative or our customer support unit at 1-800-632-3492.

                                  14 PROSPECTUS




GUARANTEE PERIODS

Under this option, each payment or transfer allocated to the Fixed Account earns
interest at a specified rate that we guarantee for a period of years we call a
Guarantee Period. Guarantee Periods may range from 1 to 10 years. We are
currently offering Guarantee Periods of 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 years in length. In
the future we may offer Guarantee Periods of different lengths or stop offering
some Guarantee Periods. You select one or more Guarantee Periods for each
purchase payment or transfer. If you do not select the Guarantee Period for a
purchase payment or transfer, we will assign the shortest Guarantee Period
available under the Contract for such payment or transfer.

Each payment or transfer allocated to a Guarantee Period must be at least $500.
We reserve the right to limit the number of additional purchase payments that
you may allocate to the Fixed Account. Please consult with your Personal
Financial Representative for more information.

INTEREST RATES. We will tell you what interest rates and Guarantee Periods we
are offering at a particular time. We may declare different interest rates for
Guarantee Periods of the same length that begin at different times. We will not
change the interest rate that we credit to a particular allocation until the end
of the relevant Guarantee Period.

We have no specific formula for determining the rate of interest that we will
declare initially or in the future. We will set those interest rates based on
investment returns available at the time of the determination. In addition, we
may consider various other factors in determining interest rates including
regulatory and tax requirements, our sales commission and administrative
expenses, general economic trends, and competitive factors. We determine the
interest rates to be declared in our sole discretion. We can neither predict nor
guarantee what those rates will be in the future. For current interest rate
information, please contact your Personal Financial Representative or Allstate
New York at 1-800-632-3492. The interest rate will never be less than the
minimum guaranteed amount stated in the Contract.

HOW WE CREDIT INTEREST. We will credit interest daily to each amount allocated
to a Guarantee Period at a rate that compounds to the effective annual interest
rate that we declared at the beginning of the applicable Guarantee Period.

The following example illustrates how a purchase payment allocated to the Fixed
Account would grow, given an assumed Guarantee Period and effective annual
interest rate:

Purchase Payment....................................................    $10,000
Guarantee Period....................................................    5 years
Annual Interest Rate................................................      4.50%

This example assumes no withdrawals during the entire 5 year Guarantee Period.
If you were to make a withdrawal, you may be required to pay a Withdrawal
Charge. In addition, the amount withdrawn may be increased or decreased by a
Market Value Adjustment that reflects changes in interest rates since the time
you invested the amount withdrawn. Withdrawals of earnings are taxed as ordinary
income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may be subject to an additional 10%
federal tax penalty. The hypothetical interest rate is for illustrative purposes
only and is not intended to predict future interest rates to be declared under
the Contract. Actual interest rates declared for any given Guarantee Period may
be more or less than shown above but will never be less than the guaranteed
minimum rate stated in the Contract.

                                  15 PROSPECTUS




RENEWALS. At least 15 but not more than 45 days prior to the end of each
Guarantee Period, we will mail you a notice asking you what to do with your
money, including the accrued interest. During the 30-day period after the end of
the Guarantee Period, you may:

1)   take no action. We will automatically apply your money to a new Guarantee
     Period of the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will
     begin on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. The new interest rate
     will be our then current declared rate for a Guarantee Period of that
     length; or

2)   instruct us to apply your money to one or more new Guarantee Periods of
     your choice. The new Guarantee Period(s) will begin on the day the previous
     Guarantee Period ends. The new interest rate will be our then current
     declared rate for those Guarantee Periods; or

3)   instruct us to transfer all or a portion of your money to one or more
     Variable Sub-Accounts. We will effect the transfer on the day we receive
     your instructions. We will not adjust the amount transferred to include a
     Market Value Adjustment. We will pay interest from the day the Guarantee
     Period expired until the date of the transfer. The interest will be the
     rate for the Shortest Guarantee Period then being offered; or

4)   withdraw all or a portion of your money. You may be required to pay a
     withdrawal charge, but we will not adjust the amount withdrawn to include a
     Market Value Adjustment. You may also be required to pay premium taxes and
     withholding (if applicable). The amount withdrawn will be deemed to have
     been withdrawn on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. Unless you
     specify otherwise, amounts not withdrawn will be applied to a new Guarantee
     Period of the shortest duration available. The new Guarantee Period will
     begin on the day the previous Guarantee Period ends. Withdrawals of
     earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2,
     may be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

Under our automatic laddering program ("Automatic Laddering Program"), you may
choose, in advance, to use Guarantee Periods of the same length for all
renewals. You can select the Automatic Laddering Program at any time during the
Accumulation Phase, including on the Issue Date. We will apply renewals to
Guarantee Periods of the selected length until you direct us in writing to stop.
We may stop offering the Automatic Laddering Program at any time. For additional
information on the Automatic Laddering Program, please call our customer service
center at 1-800-632-3492.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT. All withdrawals in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal
Amount, and transfers from a Guarantee Period, other than those taken during the
30 day period after such Guarantee Period expires, are subject to a Market Value
Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment also applies when you apply amounts
currently invested in a Guarantee Period to an Income Plan (unless paid or
applied during the 30 day period after such Guarantee Period expires). A
positive Market Value Adjustment will apply to amounts currently invested in a
Guarantee Period that are paid out as death benefits. We will not apply a Market
Value Adjustment to a transfer you make as part of a Dollar Cost Averaging
Program. We also will not apply a Market Value Adjustment to a withdrawal you
make:

..    within the Preferred Withdrawal Amount as described on page 20, or

..    to satisfy the IRS minimum distribution rules for a qualified Contract.

We apply the Market Value Adjustment to reflect changes in interest rates from
the time you first allocate money to a Guarantee Period to the time it is
removed from that Guarantee Period. We calculate the Market Value Adjustment by
comparing the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the Guarantee Period at its
inception to the Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period when you remove your money. "TREASURY RATE" means the U.S.
Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported in Federal Reserve Board
Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment may be positive or negative, depending on changes in
interest rates. As such, you bear the investment risk associated with changes in
interest rates. If interest rates increase significantly, the Market Value
Adjustment and any withdrawal charge, premium taxes, and income tax withholding
(if applicable) could reduce the amount you receive upon full withdrawal of your
Contract Value to an amount that is less than the purchase payment plus interest
at the minimum guaranteed interest rate under the Contract.

Generally, if the Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee
Period is higher than the applicable current Treasury Rate for a period equal to
the time remaining in the Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment
will result in a higher amount payable to you or transferred. Conversely, if the
Treasury Rate at the time you allocate money to a Guarantee Period is lower than
the applicable Treasury Rate for a period equal to the time remaining in the
Guarantee Period, then the Market Value Adjustment will result in a lower amount
payable to you or transferred.

For example, assume that you purchase a Contract and you select an initial
Guarantee Period of 5 years and the 5 year Treasury Rate for that duration is
4.50%. Assume that at the end of 3 years, you make a partial withdrawal. If, at
that later time, the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.20%, then the Market
Value Adjustment will be positive, which will result in an increase in the
amount payable to you. Conversely, if the current 2 year Treasury Rate is 4.80%,
then the Market Value Adjustment will be

                                  16 PROSPECTUS




negative, which will result in a decrease in the amount payable to you.

The formula for calculating Market Value Adjustments is set forth in Appendix B
to this prospectus, which also contains additional examples of the application
of the Market Value Adjustment.

INVESTMENT ALTERNATIVES: TRANSFERS

TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE

During the Accumulation Phase, you may transfer Contract Value among the
investment alternatives. The minimum amount that you may transfer into a
Guarantee Period is $500. You may request transfers in writing on a form that we
provided or by telephone according to the procedure described below. We
currently do not assess, but reserve the right to assess, a $10 charge on each
transfer in excess of 12 per Contract Year. We treat transfers to or from more
than one Portfolio on the same day as one transfer. Transfers you make as part
of a Dollar Cost Averaging Program or Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program do
not count against the 12 free transfers per Contract Year.

We will process transfer requests that we receive before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
(3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit
Values for that Date. We will process requests completed after 4:00 p.m. Eastern
Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time) on any Valuation Date using the Accumulation Unit
Values for the next Valuation Date. The Contract permits us to defer transfers
from the Fixed Account for up to 6 months from the date we receive your request.
If we decide to postpone transfers from the Fixed Account for 10 days or more,
we will pay interest as required by applicable law. Any interest would be
payable from the date we receive the transfer request to the date we make the
transfer.

If you transfer an amount from a Guarantee Period other than during the 30 day
period after such Guarantee Period expires, we will increase or decrease the
amount by a Market Value Adjustment. If any transfer reduces your value in such
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we will treat the request as a transfer of
the entire value in such Guarantee Period.

We reserve the right to waive any transfer fees and restrictions.

TRANSFERS DURING THE PAYOUT PHASE

During the Payout Phase, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts
to change the relative weighting of the Variable Sub-Accounts on which your
variable income payments will be based. In addition, you will have a limited
ability to make transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the
proportion of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may
not, however, convert any portion of your right to receive fixed income payments
into variable income payments.

You may not make any transfers for the first 6 months after the Payout Start
Date. Thereafter, you may make transfers among the Variable Sub-Accounts or make
transfers from the Variable Sub-Accounts to increase the proportion of your
income payments consisting of fixed income payments. Your transfers must be at
least 6 months apart.

TELEPHONE TRANSFERS

You may make transfers by telephone by calling 1-800-632-3492, if you first send
us a completed authorization form. The cut off-time for telephone transfer
requests is 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (3:00 p.m. Central Time). In the event that
the New York Stock Exchange closes early, i.e., before 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time
(3:00 p.m. Central Time), or in the event that the Exchange closes early for a
period of time but then reopens for trading on the same day, we will process
telephone transfer requests as of the close of the Exchange on that particular
day. We will not accept telephone requests received at any telephone number
other than the number that appears in this paragraph or received after the close
of trading on the Exchange.

We may suspend, modify or terminate the telephone transfer privilege, as well as
any other electronic or automated means we previously approved, at any time
without notice.

We use procedures that we believe provide reasonable assurance that the
telephone transfers are genuine. For example, we tape telephone conversations
with persons purporting to authorize transfers and request identifying
information. Accordingly, we disclaim any liability for losses resulting from
allegedly unauthorized telephone transfers. However, if we do not take
reasonable steps to help ensure that a telephone authorization is valid, we may
be liable for such losses.

MARKET TIMING & EXCESSIVE TRADING

The Contracts are intended for long-term investment. Market timing and excessive
trading can potentially dilute the value of Variable Sub-Accounts and can
disrupt management of a Portfolio and raise its expenses, which can impair
Portfolio performance. Our policy is not to accept knowingly any money intended
for the purpose of market timing or excessive trading. Accordingly, you should
not invest in the Contract if your purpose is to engage in market timing or
excessive trading, and you should refrain from such practices if you currently
own a Contract.

                                  17 PROSPECTUS




We seek to detect market timing or excessive trading activity by reviewing
trading activities. Portfolios also may report suspected market-timing or
excessive trading activity to us. If, in our judgment, we determine that the
transfers are part of a market timing strategy or are otherwise harmful to the
underlying Portfolio, we will impose the trading limitations as described below
under "Trading Limitations." Because there is no universally accepted definition
of what constitutes market timing or excessive trading, we will use our
reasonable judgment based on all of the circumstances.

While we seek to deter market timing and excessive trading in Variable
Sub-Accounts, not all market timing or excessive trading is identifiable or
preventable. Imposition of trading limitations is triggered by the detection of
market timing or excessive trading activity, and the trading limitations are not
applied prior to detection of such trading activity. Therefore, our policies and
procedures do not prevent such trading activity before it first occurs. To the
extent that such trading activity occurs prior to detection and the imposition
of trading restrictions, the portfolio may experience the adverse effects of
market timing and excessive trading described above.

TRADING LIMITATIONS

We reserve the right to limit transfers among the investment alternatives in any
Contract year, or to refuse any transfer request, if:

..    we believe, in our sole discretion, that certain trading practices, such as
     excessive trading, by, or on behalf of, one or more Contract Owners, or a
     specific transfer request or group of transfer requests, may have a
     detrimental effect on the Accumulation Unit Values of any Variable
     Sub-Account or on the share prices of the corresponding Portfolio or
     otherwise would be to the disadvantage of other Contract Owners; or

..    we are informed by one or more of the Portfolios that they intend to
     restrict the purchase, exchange, or redemption of Portfolio shares because
     of excessive trading or because they believe that a specific transfer or
     group of transfers would have a detrimental effect on the prices of
     Portfolio shares.

In making the determination that trading activity constitutes market timing or
excessive trading, we will consider, among other things:

..    the total dollar amount being transferred, both in the aggregate and in the
     transfer request;

..    the number of transfers you make over a period of time and/or the period of
     time between transfers (note: one set of transfers to and from a
     sub-account in a short period of time can constitute market timing);

..    whether your transfers follow a pattern that appears designed to take
     advantage of short term market fluctuations, particularly within certain
     Sub-account underlying portfolios that we have identified as being
     susceptible to market timing activities;

..    whether the manager of the underlying portfolio has indicated that the
     transfers interfere with portfolio management or otherwise adversely impact
     the portfolio; and

..    the investment objectives and/or size of the Sub-account underlying
     portfolio.

If we determine that a contract owner has engaged in market timing or excessive
trading activity, we will restrict that contract owner from making future
additions or transfers into the impacted Sub-account(s). If we determine that a
contract owner has engaged in a pattern of market timing or excessive trading
activity involving multiple Sub-accounts, we will also require that all future
transfer requests be submitted through regular U.S. mail thereby refusing to
accept transfer requests via telephone, facsimile, Internet, or overnight
delivery. Any Sub-account or transfer restrictions will be uniformly applied.

In our sole discretion, we may revise our Trading Limitations at any time as
necessary to better deter or minimize market timing and excessive trading or to
comply with regulatory requirements.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM

Through the Dollar Cost Averaging Program, you may automatically transfer a set
amount every month during the Accumulation Phase from any Variable Sub-Account,
the Six Month Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Account, or the Twelve Month Dollar
Cost Averaging Fixed Account, to any other Variable Sub-Account. You may not use
dollar cost averaging to transfer amounts to the Fixed Account.

We will not charge a transfer fee for transfers made under this Program, nor
will such transfers count against the 12 transfers you can make each Contract
Year without paying a transfer fee.

The theory of dollar cost averaging is that if purchases of equal dollar amounts
are made at fluctuating prices, the aggregate average cost per unit will be less
than the average of the unit prices on the same purchase dates. However,
participation in this Program does not assure you of a greater profit from your
purchases under the Program nor will it prevent or necessarily reduce losses in
a declining market.

Call or write us for instructions on how to enroll.

AUTOMATIC PORTFOLIO REBALANCING PROGRAM

Once you have allocated your money among the Variable Sub-Accounts, the
performance of each Variable Sub-Account may cause a shift in the percentage you
allocated to each Variable Sub-Account. If you select our Automatic Portfolio
Rebalancing Program, we will

                                  18 PROSPECTUS




automatically rebalance the Contract Value in each Variable Sub-Account and
return it to the desired percentage allocations. Money you allocate to the Fixed
Account will not be included in the rebalancing.

We will rebalance your account each quarter according to your instructions. We
will transfer amounts among the Variable Sub-Accounts to achieve the percentage
allocations you specify. You can change your allocations at any time by
contacting us in writing or by telephone. The new allocation will be effective
with the first rebalancing that occurs after we receive your request. We are not
responsible for rebalancing that occurs prior to receipt of your request.

Example:

Assume that you want your initial purchase payment split among 2 Variable
Sub-Accounts. You want 40% to be in the AIM V.I. Capital Appreciation Variable
Sub-Account and 60% to be in the Fidelity VIP Growth Variable Sub-Account. Over
the next 2 months the bond market does very well while the stock market performs
poorly. At the end of the first quarter, the AIM V.I. Capital Appreciation
Variable Sub-Account now represents 50% of your holdings because of its increase
in value. If you choose to have your holdings rebalanced quarterly, on the first
day of the next quarter we would sell some of your units in the AIM V.I. Capital
Appreciation Variable Sub-Account and use the money to buy more units in the
Fidelity VIP Growth Variable Sub-Account so that the percentage allocations
would again be 40% and 60% respectively.

The Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program is available only during the
Accumulation Phase. The transfers made under the Program do not count towards
the 12 transfers you can make without paying a transfer fee, and are not subject
to a transfer fee.

Portfolio rebalancing is consistent with maintaining your allocation of
investments among market segments, although it is accomplished by reducing your
Contract Value allocated to the better performing segments.

You may not use the Dollar Cost Averaging and the Automatic Portfolio
Rebalancing programs at the same time.

EXPENSES

As a Contract Owner, you will bear, directly or indirectly, the charges and
expenses described below.

CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE

During the Accumulation Phase, on each Contract Anniversary, we will deduct a
$30 contract maintenance charge from your Contract Value invested in each
Variable Sub-Account in proportion to the amount invested. We also will deduct a
full contract maintenance charge if you withdraw your entire Contract Value,
unless your Contract qualifies for a waiver, described below. During the Payout
Phase, we will deduct the charge proportionately from each income payment.

The charge is for the cost of maintaining each Contract and the Variable
Account. Maintenance costs include expenses we incur in billing and collecting
purchase payments; keeping records; processing death claims, cash withdrawals,
and policy changes; proxy statements; calculating Accumulation Unit Values and
income payments; and issuing reports to Contract Owners and regulatory agencies.
We cannot increase the charge. We will waive this charge if:

..    total purchase payments equal $50,000 or more, or

..    all of your money is allocated to the Fixed Account on a Contract
     Anniversary.

MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE

We deduct a mortality and expense risk charge daily at an annual rate of 1.15%
of the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts.
The mortality and expense risk charge is for all the insurance benefits
available with your Contract (including our guarantee of annuity rates and the
death benefits), for certain expenses of the Contract, and for assuming the risk
(expense risk) that the current charges will be sufficient in the future to
cover the cost of administering the Contract. If the charges under the Contract
are not sufficient, then we will bear the loss.

We guarantee the mortality and expense risk charge and we cannot increase it. We
assess the mortality and expense risk charge during both the Accumulation Phase
and the Payout Phase.

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE CHARGE

We deduct an administrative expense charge daily at an annual rate of 0.10% of
the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts. We
intend this charge to cover actual administrative expenses that exceed the
revenues from the contract maintenance charge. There is no necessary
relationship between the amount of administrative charge imposed on a given
Contract and the amount of expenses that may be attributed to that Contract. We
assess this charge each day during the Accumulation Phase and the Payout Phase.
We guarantee that we will not raise this charge.

TRANSFER FEE

We do not currently impose a fee upon transfers among the investment
alternatives. However, we reserve the right to charge $10 per transfer after the
12th transfer in each Contract Year. We will not charge a transfer fee on
transfers that are part of a Dollar Cost Averaging or Automatic Portfolio
Rebalancing Program.

                                  19 PROSPECTUS




WITHDRAWAL CHARGE

We may assess a Withdrawal Charge of up to 7% of the purchase payment(s) you
withdraw in excess of the Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market
Value Adjustment. The charge declines by 1% annually to 0% after 7 complete
years from the day we receive the purchase payment being withdrawn. Beginning on
January 1, 2004, if you make a withdrawal before the Payout Start Date, we will
apply the Withdrawal Charge percentage in effect on the date of the withdrawal,
or the Withdrawal Charge percentage in effect on the following day, whichever is
lower. A schedule showing how the Withdrawal Charge declines appears on page 7.
During each Contract Year, you can withdraw up to 15% of purchase payments
without paying the Withdrawal Charge. Unused portions of this 15% "PREFERRED
WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT" are not carried forward to future Contract Years.

We determine the Withdrawal Charge by:

..    multiplying the percentage corresponding to the number of complete years
     since we received the purchase payment being withdrawn, times

..    the part of each purchase payment withdrawal that is in excess of the
     Preferred Withdrawal Amount, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment.

We will deduct Withdrawal Charges, if applicable, from the amount paid. For
purposes of the Withdrawal Charge, we will treat withdrawals as coming from the
oldest purchase payments first. However, for federal income tax purposes, please
note that withdrawals are considered to have come first from earnings in the
Contract, which means you pay taxes on the earnings portion of your withdrawal.

We do not apply a Withdrawal Charge in the following situations:

..    on the Payout Start Date (a Withdrawal Charge may apply if you elect to
     receive income payments for a specified period of less than 120 months);

..    the death of the Contract Owner or Annuitant (unless the Settlement Value
     is used);

..    withdrawals taken to satisfy IRS required minimum distribution rules for
     the Contract; or

..    withdrawals made after all purchase payments have been withdrawn.

We use the amounts obtained from the Withdrawal Charge to pay sales commissions
and other promotional or distribution expenses associated with marketing the
Contracts. To the extent that the Withdrawal Charge does not cover all sales
commissions and other promotional or distribution expenses, we may use any of
our corporate assets, including potential profit which may arise from the
mortality and expense risk charge or any other charges or fee described above,
to make up any difference.

Withdrawals taken during the Accumulation Phase are generally considered to come
from the earnings in the Contract first. If the Contract is tax-qualified,
generally all withdrawals are treated as distributions of earnings. Withdrawals
of earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty. Withdrawals may also be
subject to a Market Value Adjustment. You should consult your own tax counsel or
other tax advisers regarding any withdrawals.

PREMIUM TAXES

Currently, we do not make deductions for premium taxes under the Contract
because New York does not charge premium taxes on annuities. We may deduct taxes
that may be imposed in the future from purchase payments or the Contract Value
when the tax is incurred or at a later time.

DEDUCTION FOR VARIABLE ACCOUNT INCOME TAXES

We are not currently making a provision for such taxes. In the future, however,
we may make a provision for taxes if we determine, in our sole discretion, that
we will incur a tax as a result of the operation of the Variable Account. We
will deduct for any taxes we incur as a result of the operation of the Variable
Account, whether or not we previously made a provision for taxes and whether or
not it was sufficient. Our status under the Internal Revenue Code is briefly
described in the Federal Tax Matters section.

OTHER EXPENSES

Each Portfolio deducts advisory fees and other expenses from its assets. You
indirectly bear the charges and expenses of the Portfolios whose shares are held
by the Variable Sub-Accounts. These fees and expenses are described in the
accompanying prospectuses for the Portfolios. For a summary of the maximum and
minimum amounts for these charges and expenses, see pages 8-9. We may receive
compensation from the investment advisers or administrators of the Portfolios
for administrative services we provide to the Portfolios.

                                  20 PROSPECTUS




ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY

You can withdraw some or all of your Contract Value at any time prior to the
Payout Start Date. Full or partial withdrawals also are available under limited
circumstances on or after the Payout Start Date. See "Income Plans" on page 22.

The amount payable upon withdrawal is the Contract Value next computed after we
receive the request for a withdrawal at our customer service center, adjusted by
any Market Value Adjustment, less any Withdrawal Charges, contract maintenance
charges, income tax withholding, and any premium taxes. We will pay withdrawals
from the Variable Account within 7 days of receipt of the request, subject to
postponement in certain circumstances.

You can withdraw money from the Variable Account or the Fixed Account. To
complete a partial withdrawal from the Variable Account, we will cancel
Accumulation Units in an amount equal to the withdrawal and any applicable
Withdrawal Charge and premium taxes.

Withdrawals taken during the Accumulation Phase are generally considered to come
from the earnings in the Contract first. If the Contract is tax-qualified,
generally all withdrawals are treated as distributions of earnings. Withdrawals
of earnings are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

You have the opportunity to name the investment alternative(s) from which you
are taking the withdrawal. If none is specified, we will deduct your withdrawal
pro-rata from the investment alternatives according to the value of your
investments therein.

In general, you must withdraw at least $50 at a time. You also may withdraw a
lesser amount if you are withdrawing your entire interest in a Variable
Sub-Account.

If you request a total withdrawal, you must return your Contract to us.

POSTPONEMENT OF PAYMENTS

We may postpone the payment of any amounts due from the Variable Account under
the Contract if:

1.   The New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than usual weekends or
     holidays, or trading on the Exchange is otherwise restricted;

2.   An emergency exists as defined by the SEC; or

3.   The SEC permits delay for your protection.

In addition, we may delay payments or transfers from the Fixed Account for up to
6 months or a shorter period if required by law. If we delay payment or transfer
for 10 business days or more, we will pay interest as required by law. Any
interest would be payable from the date we receive the withdrawal request to the
date we make the payment or transfer.

SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM

You may choose to receive systematic withdrawal payments on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis at any time prior to the Payout Start
Date. The minimum amount of each systematic withdrawal is $50. At our
discretion, systematic withdrawals may not be offered in conjunction with the
Dollar Cost Averaging Program or the Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing Program.

Depending on fluctuations in the net asset value of the Variable Sub-Accounts
and the value of the Fixed Account, systematic withdrawals may reduce or even
exhaust the Contract Value. Please consult your tax advisor before taking any
withdrawal.

We will make systematic withdrawal payments to you or your designated payee. We
may modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program and charge a processing
fee for the service. If we modify or suspend the Systematic Withdrawal Program,
existing systematic withdrawal payments will not be affected.

MINIMUM CONTRACT VALUE

If your request for a partial withdrawal would reduce the amount in any
Guarantee Period to less than $500, we will treat it as a request to withdraw
the entire amount invested in such Guarantee Period. If your request for a
partial withdrawal would reduce your Contract Value to less than $1,000, we may
treat it as a request to withdraw your entire Contract Value. Your Contract will
terminate if you withdraw all of your Contract Value. We will, however, ask you
to confirm your withdrawal request before terminating your Contract. Before
terminating any Contract whose value has been reduced by withdrawals to less
than $1,000, we will inform you in writing of our intention to terminate your
Contract and give you at least 30 days in which to make an additional purchase
payment to restore your Contract's value to the contractual minimum of $1,000.
If we terminate your Contract, we will distribute to you its Contract Value,
adjusted by any applicable Market Value Adjustment, less withdrawal and other
charges and applicable taxes.

                                  21 PROSPECTUS




INCOME PAYMENTS

PAYOUT START DATE

The Payout Start Date is the day that we apply your money to an Income Plan. The
Payout Start Date must be no later than the day the Annuitant reaches age 90, or
the 10th Contract Anniversary, if later. You may change the Payout Start Date at
any time by notifying us in writing of the change at least 30 days before the
scheduled Payout Start Date. Absent a change, we will use the Payout Start Date
stated in your Contract.

INCOME PLANS

An "Income Plan" is a series of payments on a scheduled basis to you or to
another person designated by you. You may choose and change your choice of
Income Plan until 30 days before the Payout Start Date. If you do not select an
Income Plan, we will make income payments in accordance with Income Plan 1 with
guaranteed payments for 10 years if you have designated only one Annuitant, or
Income Plan 2 with guaranteed payments for 10 years if you have designated joint
Annuitants. After the Payout Start Date, you may not make withdrawals (except as
described below) or change your choice of Income Plan.

Three Income Plans are available under the Contract. Each is available to
provide:

..    fixed income payments;

..    variable income payments; or

..    a combination of the two.

A portion of each payment will be considered taxable and the remaining portion
will be a non-taxable return of your investment in the Contract, which is also
called the "basis". Once the basis in the Contract is depleted, all remaining
payments will be fully taxable. If the Contract is tax-qualified, generally, all
payments will be fully taxable. Taxable payments taken prior to age 59 1/2, may
be subject to an additional 10% federal tax penalty.

The three Income Plans are:

INCOME PLAN 1 - LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under this plan, we make
periodic income payments for at least as long as the Annuitant lives. If the
Annuitant dies before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we
will continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required
by the Contract. The number of months guaranteed may be 0 months, or range from
60 to 360 months.

INCOME PLAN 2 - JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE INCOME WITH GUARANTEED PAYMENTS. Under
this plan, we make periodic income payments for at least as long as either the
Annuitant or the joint Annuitant is alive. If both the Annuitant and the joint
Annuitant die before we have made all of the guaranteed income payments, we will
continue to pay the remainder of the guaranteed income payments as required by
the Contract. The number of months guaranteed may be 0 months, or range from 60
to 360 months.

INCOME PLAN 3 - GUARANTEED PAYMENTS FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD (5 YEARS TO 30
YEARS). Under this plan, we make periodic income payments for the period you
have chosen. These payments do not depend on the Annuitant's life. Income
payments for less than 120 months may be subject to a withdrawal charge. We will
deduct the mortality and expense risk charge from the Variable Sub-Account
assets that support variable income payments even though we may not bear any
mortality risk.

The length of any guaranteed payment period under your selected Income Plan
generally will affect the dollar amounts of each income payment. As a general
rule, longer guarantee periods result in lower income payments, all other things
being equal. For example, if you choose an Income Plan with payments that depend
on the life of the Annuitant but with no minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments, the income payments generally will be greater than the income payments
made under the same Income Plan with a minimum specified period for guaranteed
payments.

If you choose Income Plan 1 or 2, or, if available, another Income Plan with
payments that continue for the life of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant, we may
require proof of age and sex of the Annuitant or joint Annuitant before starting
income payments, and proof that the Annuitant or joint Annuitant is alive before
we make each payment.

Please note that under such Income Plans, if you elect to take no minimum
guaranteed payments, it is possible that the payee could receive only 1 income
payment if the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant both die before the second
income payment, or only 2 income payments if they die before the third income
payment, and so on.

Generally, you may not make withdrawals after the Payout Start Date. One
exception to this rule applies if you are receiving variable income payments
that do not depend on the life of the Annuitant (such as under Income Plan 3).
In that case you may terminate all or part of the Variable Account portion of
the income payments at any time and receive a lump sum equal to the present
value of the remaining variable income payments associated with the amount
withdrawn. To determine the present value of any remaining variable income
payments being withdrawn, we use a discount rate equal to the assumed annual
investment rate that we use to compute such variable income payments. The
minimum amount you may withdraw under this feature is $1,000. A withdrawal
charge may apply. You will also have a limited ability to make transfers from
the Variable Account portion of the income payments to increase the proportion
of your income payments consisting of fixed income payments. You may not,
however, convert any

                                  22 PROSPECTUS




portion of your right to receive fixed income payments into variable income
payments. We deduct applicable premium taxes, if any, from the Contract Value at
the Payout Start Date. New York does not currently impose a Premium Tax.

We may make other Income Plans available. You may obtain information about them
by writing or calling us.

You must apply at least the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the Payout
Start Date to fixed income payments. If you wish to apply any portion of your
Fixed Account balance to provide variable income payments, you should plan ahead
and transfer that amount to the Variable Sub-Accounts prior to the Payout Start
Date. If you do not tell us how to allocate your Contract Value among fixed and
variable income payments, we will apply your Contract Value in the Variable
Account to variable income payments and your Contract Value in the Fixed Account
to fixed income payments.

We will apply your Contract Value, adjusted by a Market Value Adjustment, less
applicable taxes to your Income Plan on the Payout Start Date. If the Contract
Value is less than $2,000 or not enough to provide an initial payment of at
least $20, and state law permits, we may:

..    terminate the Contract and pay you the Contract Value, adjusted by any
     Market Value Adjustment and less any applicable taxes, in a lump sum
     instead of the periodic payments you have chosen, or

..    reduce the frequency of your payments so that each payment will be at least
     $20.

VARIABLE INCOME PAYMENTS

The amount of your variable income payments depends upon the investment results
of the Variable Sub-Accounts you select, the premium taxes you pay, the age and
sex of the Annuitant, and the Income Plan you choose. We guarantee that the
payments will not be affected by (a) actual mortality experience and (b) the
amount of our administration expenses.

We cannot predict the total amount of your variable income payments. Your
variable income payments may be more or less than your total purchase payments
because (a) variable income payments vary with the investment results of the
underlying Portfolio and (b) the Annuitant could live longer or shorter than we
expect based on the tables we use.

In calculating the amount of the periodic payments in the annuity tables in the
Contract, we assumed an annual investment rate of 3%. If the actual net
investment return of the Variable Sub-Accounts you choose is less than this
assumed investment rate, then the dollar amount of your variable income payments
will decrease. The dollar amount of your variable income payments will increase,
however, if the actual net investment return exceeds the assumed investment
rate. The dollar amount of the variable income payments stays level if the net
investment return equals the assumed investment rate. Please refer to the
Statement of Additional Information for more detailed information as to how we
determine variable income payments.

FIXED INCOME PAYMENTS

We guarantee income payment amounts derived from the Fixed Account for the
duration of the Income Plan. We calculate the fixed income payments by:

1.   adjusting the portion of the Contract Value in the Fixed Account on the
     Payout Start Date by any applicable Market Value Adjustment;

2.   deducting any applicable premium tax; and

3.   applying the resulting amount to the greater of (a) the appropriate value
     from the income payment table in your Contract or (b) such other value as
     we are offering at that time.

We may defer making fixed income payments for a period of up to 6 months or such
shorter time as state law may require. If we defer payments for 10 business days
or more, we will pay interest as required by law from the date we receive the
withdrawal request to the date we make payment.

CERTAIN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Contracts offered by this prospectus contain income payment tables that
provide for different payments to men and women of the same age, except in
states that require unisex tables. We reserve the right to use income payment
tables that do not distinguish on the basis of sex to the extent permitted by
applicable law. In certain employment-related situations, employers are required
by law to use the same income payment tables for men and women. Accordingly, if
the Contract is to be used in connection with an employment-related retirement
or benefit plan and we do not offer unisex annuity tables in your state, you
should consult with legal counsel as to whether the purchase of a Contract is
appropriate.

DEATH BENEFITS

We will pay the death proceeds prior to the Payout Start Date on:

(a)  the death of any Contract Owner, or

(b)  the death of the Annuitant, if the Contract is owned by a non-living
     person.

We will pay the death proceeds to the new Contract Owner as determined
immediately after the death. The new Contract Owner would be a surviving
Contract Owner or, if none, the Beneficiary(ies). In the case of a Contract
owned by a non-living owner, upon the death of the Annuitant, we will pay the
death proceeds to the current Contract Owner.

We will determine the value of the death proceeds as of the end of the Valuation
Date on which we receive a complete request for settlement of the death
proceeds. If we receive a request after 3 p.m. Central Time on a Valuation Date,
we will process the request as of the end of the following Valuation Date.

A complete request for settlement of the death proceeds must include DUE PROOF
OF DEATH. We will accept the following documentation as "Due Proof of Death:"

..    a certified copy of the death certificate,

..    a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the
     finding of death, or

..    any other proof acceptable to us.

DEATH PROCEEDS If we receive a complete request for settlement of the death
proceeds within 180 days of the date of the death of any Contract Owner, or the
death of the Annuitant, if the Contract is owned by a non-living owner, the
death proceeds are equal to the Death Benefit described below. Otherwise, the
death proceeds are equal to the greater of the Contract Value or the Settlement
Value.

We reserve the right to extend, on a non-discriminatory basis, the 180-day
period in which the death proceeds will equal the Death Benefit as described
below. This right applies only to the amount payable as death proceeds and in no
way restricts when a claim may be filed.

If we do not receive a complete request for settlement of the death proceeds
within 180 days of the date of death, the death proceeds are equal to the
greater of:

1)   the Contract Value as of the date we determine the death proceeds; or

2)   the Settlement Value as of the date we determine the death proceeds.

DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT

Prior to the Payout Start Date, the Death Benefit is equal to the greatest of:

1.   the Contract Value as of the date we receive a complete request for
     settlement of the death proceeds, or

2.   the SETTLEMENT VALUE (that is, the amount payable on a full withdrawal of
     Contract Value) on the date we determine the death proceeds, or

3.   the Contract Value on the Death Benefit Anniversary immediately preceding
     the date we receive a complete request for settlement of the death
     proceeds, adjusted by any purchase payments, withdrawal adjustment as
     defined below, and charges made since that Death Benefit Anniversary. A
     "DEATH BENEFIT ANNIVERSARY" is every seventh Contract Anniversary beginning
     with the Issue Date. For example, the Issue Date, 7th and 14th Contract
     Anniversaries are the first three Death Benefit Anniversaries, or

4.   the greatest of the Anniversary Values as of the date we receive a complete
     request for settlement of the death proceeds. An "ANNIVERSARY VALUE" is
     equal to the Contract Value on a Contract Anniversary, increased by
     purchase payments made since that Anniversary and reduced by the amount of
     any withdrawal adjustment, as defined below, since that anniversary.
     Anniversary Values will be calculated for each Contract Anniversary prior
     to the earlier of:

(i)  the date we determine the death benefit, or

(ii) the deceased's 75th birthday or 5 years after the Issue Date, if later.

The withdrawal adjustment is equal to (a) divided by (b), with the result
multiplied by (c), where:

(a) = the withdrawal amount,

(b) = the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal, and

(c) = the value of the applicable death benefit alternative immediately prior to
the withdrawal.

See Appendix C for an example representative of how the withdrawal adjustment
applies.

In calculating the Settlement Value, the amount in each individual Guarantee
Period may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. A Market Value Adjustment
will apply to amounts in a Guarantee Period, unless we calculate the Settlement
Value during the 30-day period after the expiration of the Guarantee Period.
Also, the Settlement Value will reflect the deduction of any applicable
Withdrawal Charges, contract maintenance charges, and premium taxes. Contract
maintenance charges will be pro rated for the part of the Contract Year elapsed
as of the date we determine the Settlement Value, unless your Contract qualifies
for a waiver of such charges described in the "Contract Maintenance Charge"
section above.

DEATH BENEFIT PAYMENTS
DEATH OF OWNER

                                  24 PROSPECTUS




1.   If your spouse is the sole surviving Contract Owner, or is the sole
     Beneficiary:

a.   Your spouse may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump sum; or

b.   Your spouse may elect to receive the Death Proceeds paid out under one of
     the Income Plans (described in "Income Payments" above), subject to the
     following conditions:

The Payout Start Date must be within one year of your date of death. Income
payments must be payable:

i.   over the life of your spouse; or

ii.  for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of your spouse; or

iii. over the life of your spouse with a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to
     30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of your spouse.

c.   If your spouse does not elect one of these options, the Contract will
     continue in the Accumulation Phase as if the death had not occurred. If the
     Contract is continued in the Accumulation Phase, the following conditions
     apply: The Contract Value of the continued Contract will be the Death
     Proceeds. Unless otherwise instructed by the continuing spouse, the excess,
     if any, of the Death Proceeds over the Contract Value will be allocated to
     the Sub-Accounts of the Variable Account. This excess will be allocated in
     proportion to your Contract Value in those Variable Sub-Accounts as of the
     end of the Valuation Date on which we receive the complete request for
     settlement of the Death Proceeds (the next Valuation Date if we receive the
     request after 3:00 p.m. Central Time), except that any portion of this
     excess attributable to the Fixed Account Options will be allocated to the
     money market Variable Sub-Account. Within 30 days of the date the Contract
     is continued, your surviving spouse may choose one of the following
     transfer alternatives without incurring a transfer fee:

i.   transfer all or a portion of the excess among the Variable Sub-accounts;

ii.  transfer all or a portion of the excess into the Fixed Account and begin a
     new Guarantee Period; or

iii. transfer all or a portion of the excess into a combination of Variable
     Sub-Accounts and the Fixed Account.

Any such transfer does not count as one of the free transfers allowed each
Contract Year and is subject to any minimum allocation amount specified in the
Contract.

The surviving spouse may make a single withdrawal of any amount within one year
of the date of your death without incurring a Withdrawal Charge or Market Value
Adjustment.

Prior to the Payout Start Date, the Death Proceeds of the continued Contract
will be described under "Death Benefit Amount."

Only one spousal continuation is allowed under the Contract.

2.   If the new Contract Owner is not your spouse but is a living person or if
     there are multiple living-person new Contract Owners:

a.   The new Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump
     sum; or

b.   The new Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds paid out
     under one of the Income Plans (described in "Income Payments" on page 22),
     subject to the following conditions:

The Payout Start Date must be within one year of your date of death. Income
payments must be payable:

i.   over the life of the new Contract Owner; or

ii.  for a guaranteed number of payments from 5 to 50 years but not to exceed
     the life expectancy of the new Contract Owner; or

iii. over the life of the new Contract Owner with a guaranteed number of
     payments from 5 to 30 years but not to exceed the life expectancy of the
     new Contract Owner.

c.   If the new Contract Owner does not elect one of the options above, then the
     new Contract Owner must receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years
     of your date of death. The Contract Value will equal the amount of the
     Death Proceeds as determined as of the end of the Valuation Date on which
     we receive a complete request for settlement of the Death Proceeds (the
     next Valuation Date if we receive the request after 3:00 p.m. Central
     Time). Unless otherwise instructed by the new Contract Owner, the excess,
     if any, of the Death Proceeds over the Contract Value will be allocated to
     the money market Variable Sub-Account. Henceforth, the new Contract Owner
     may make transfers (as described in "Transfers During the Payout Phase" on
     page 18) during this 5 year period. No additional purchase payments may be
     added to the Contract under this election. Withdrawal Charges will be
     waived for any withdrawals made during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to offer additional options upon the death of the Contract
Owner.

If the new Contract Owner dies prior to the complete liquidation of the Contract
Value, then the new Contract Owner's named Beneficiary(ies) will receive the
greater of the Settlement Value or the remaining Contract Value. This amount
must be liquidated as a lump sum within 5 years of the date of the original
Contract Owner's death.

                                  25 PROSPECTUS




3.   If the new Contract Owner is a corporation or other type of non-living
     person:

a.   The new Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump
     sum; or

b.   If the new Contract Owner does not elect the option above, then the new
     Contract Owner must receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of
     your date of death. The Contract Value will equal the amount of the Death
     Proceeds as determined as of the end of the Valuation Date on which we
     receive a complete request for settlement of the Death Proceeds (the next
     Valuation Date if we receive the request after 3:00 p.m. Central Time).
     Unless otherwise instructed by the new Contract Owner, the excess, if any,
     of the Death Proceeds over the Contract Value will be allocated to the
     money market Variable Sub-Account. Henceforth, the new Contract Owner may
     make transfers (as described in "Transfers During the Payout Phase" on page
     18) during this 5 year period.

No additional purchase payments may be added to the Contract under this
election. Withdrawal charges will be waived during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to make additional options available to the new Contract
Owner upon the death of the Contract Owner.

If any new Contract Owner is a non-living person, all new Contract Owners will
be considered to be non-living persons for the above purposes. Under any of
these options, all ownership rights, subject to any restrictions previously
placed upon the Beneficiary, are available to the new Contract Owner from the
date of your death to the date on which the Death Proceeds is paid.

DEATH OF ANNUITANT

If the Annuitant who is not also the Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout
Start Date, the following apply:

1.   If the Contract Owner is a living person, then the Contract will continue
     with a new Annuitant, who will be:

a.   the youngest Contract Owner; otherwise

b.   the youngest Beneficiary. You may change the Annuitant before the Payout
     Start Date.

2.   If the Contract Owner is a non-living person:

a.   The Contract Owner may elect to receive the Death Proceeds in a lump sum;
     or

b.   If the Contract Owner does not elect the option above, then the Contract
     Owner must receive the Contract Value payable within 5 years of the
     Annuitant's date of death. The Contract Value will equal the amount of the
     Death Proceeds as determined as of the end of the Valuation Date on which
     we receive a complete request for settlement of the Death Proceeds (the
     next Valuation Date if we receive the request after 3:00 p.m. Central
     Time). Unless otherwise instructed by the Contract Owner, the excess, if
     any, of the Death Proceeds over the Contract Value will be allocated to the
     money market Variable Sub-Account. Henceforth, the Contract Owner may make
     transfers (as described in "Transfers During the Payout Phase" on page 18)
     during this 5 year period.

No additional purchase payments may be added to the Contract under this
election. Withdrawal Charges will be waived during this 5 year period.

We reserve the right to make additional options available to the Contract Owner
upon the death of the Annuitant.

Under any of these options, all ownership rights are available to the non-living
Contract Owner from the date of the Annuitant's death to the date on which the
Death Proceeds is paid.

MORE INFORMATION

ALLSTATE NEW YORK

Allstate New York is the issuer of the Contract. Allstate New York is a stock
life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of New York.

Allstate New York was incorporated in 1967 and was known as "Financial Life
Insurance Company" from 1967 to 1978. From 1978 to 1984, Allstate New York was
known as "PM Life Insurance Company." Since 1984 the company has been known as
"Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York."

Allstate New York is currently licensed to operate in New York. Our home office
is located at 100 Motor Parkway, Hauppauge, New York 11788-5107.

Allstate New York is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance
Company ("Allstate Life"), a stock life insurance company incorporated under the
laws of the State of Illinois. Allstate Life is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Allstate Insurance Company, a stock property-liability insurance company
incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois. With the exception of the
directors' qualifying shares, all of the outstanding capital stock of Allstate
Insurance Company is owned by The Allstate Corporation.

THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT

Allstate New York established the Allstate Life of New York Separate Account A
on December 15, 1995. We have registered the Variable Account with the SEC as a
unit investment trust. The SEC does not supervise the

                                  26 PROSPECTUS




management of the Variable Account or Allstate New York.

We own the assets of the Variable Account. The Variable Account is a segregated
asset account under New York law. That means we account for the Variable
Account's income, gains and losses separately from the results of our other
operations. It also means that only the assets of the Variable Account that are
in excess of the reserves and other Contract liabilities with respect to the
Variable Account are subject to liabilities relating to our other operations.

Our obligations arising under the Contracts are general corporate obligations of
Allstate New York.

The Variable Account consists of multiple Variable Sub-Accounts, 24 of which are
available through the Contracts. Each Variable Sub-Account invests in a
corresponding Portfolio. We may add new Variable Sub-Accounts or eliminate one
or more of them, if we believe marketing, tax, or investment conditions so
warrant. We do not guarantee the investment performance of the Variable Account,
its Sub-Accounts or the Portfolios. We may use the Variable Account to fund our
other annuity contracts. We will account separately for each type of annuity
contract funded by the Variable Account.

THE PORTFOLIOS

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS. We automatically reinvest all
dividends and capital gains distributions from the Portfolios in shares of the
distributing Portfolio at their net asset value.

VOTING PRIVILEGES. As a general matter, you do not have a direct right to vote
the shares of the Portfolios held by the Variable Sub-Accounts to which you have
allocated your Contract Value. Under current law, however, you are entitled to
give us instructions on how to vote those shares on certain matters. Based on
our present view of the law, we will vote the shares of the Portfolios that we
hold directly or indirectly through the Variable Account in accordance with
instructions that we receive from Contract owners entitled to give such
instructions.

As a general rule, before the Payout Start Date, the Contract Owner or anyone
with a voting interest is the person entitled to give voting instructions. The
number of shares that a person has a right to instruct will be determined by
dividing the Contract Value allocated to the applicable Variable Sub-Account by
the net asset value per share of the corresponding Portfolio as of the record
date of the meeting. After the Payout Start Date, the person receiving income
payments has the voting interest. The payee's number of votes will be determined
by dividing the reserve for such Contract allocated to the applicable Variable
Sub-Account by the net asset value per share of the corresponding Portfolio. The
votes decrease as income payments are made and as the reserves for the Contract
decrease.

We will vote shares attributable to Contracts for which we have not received
instructions, as well as shares attributable to us, in the same proportion as we
vote shares for which we have received instructions, unless we determine that we
may vote such shares in our own discretion. We will apply voting instructions to
abstain on any item to be voted on a pro-rata basis to reduce the votes eligible
to be cast.

We reserve the right to vote Portfolio shares as we see fit without regard to
voting instructions to the extent permitted by law. If we disregard voting
instructions, we will include a summary of that action and our reasons for that
action in the next semi-annual financial report we send to you.

CHANGES IN PORTFOLIOS. If the shares of any of the Portfolios are no longer
available for investment by the Variable Account or if, in our judgment, further
investment in such shares is no longer desirable in view of the purposes of the
Contract, we may eliminate that Portfolio and substitute shares of another
eligible investment portfolio. Any substitution of securities will comply with
the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940. We also may add new
Variable Sub-Accounts that invest in additional Portfolios. We will notify you
in advance of any changes.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Certain of the Portfolios sell their shares to Variable
Accounts underlying both variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts.

It is conceivable that in the future it may be unfavorable for variable life
insurance Variable Accounts and variable annuity Variable Accounts to invest in
the same Portfolio. The boards of directors of these Portfolios monitor for
possible conflicts among Variable Accounts buying shares of the Portfolios.

Conflicts could develop for a variety of reasons. For example, differences in
treatment under tax and other laws or the failure by a Variable Account to
comply with such laws could cause a conflict. To eliminate a conflict, a
Portfolio's board of directors may require a Variable Account to withdraw its
participation in a Portfolio. A Portfolio's net asset value could decrease if it
had to sell investment securities to pay redemption proceeds to a Variable
Account withdrawing because of a conflict.

THE CONTRACT

DISTRIBUTION. ALFS, Inc. ("ALFS"), located at 3100 Sanders Road, Northbrook,
Illinois 60062, serves as principal underwriter of the Contracts. ALFS is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Allstate Life Insurance Company. ALFS is a registered
broker-dealer under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
("Exchange Act"), and is a member of the NASD, Inc.

The Contracts described in this prospectus are sold by registered
representatives of broker-dealers who are our licensed insurance agents, either
individually or through an incorporated insurance agency. Commissions paid to

                                  27 PROSPECTUS




broker-dealers may vary, but we estimate that the total commissions paid on all
Contract sales to broker-dealers will not exceed 8.5% of any purchase payments.

These commissions are intended to cover distribution expenses.

From time to time, we may offer additional sales incentives of up to 1% of
purchase payments to broker-dealers who maintain certain sales volume levels.

Allstate New York does not pay ALFS a commission for distribution of the
Contracts. The underwriting agreement with ALFS provides that we will reimburse
ALFS for any liability to Contract Owners arising out of services rendered or
Contracts issued.

ADMINISTRATION. We have primary responsibility for all administration of the
Contracts and the Variable Account. We provide the following administrative
services, among others:

..    issuance of the Contracts;

..    maintenance of Contract Owner records;

..    Contract Owner services;

..    calculation of unit values;

..    maintenance of the Variable Account; and

..    preparation of Contract Owner reports.

We will send you Contract statements and transaction confirmations at least
annually. The annual statement details values and specific Contract data for
each particular Contract. You should notify us promptly in writing of any
address change. You should read your statements and confirmations carefully and
verify their accuracy. You should contact us promptly if you have a question
about a periodic statement. We will investigate all complaints and make any
necessary adjustments retroactively, but you must notify us of a potential error
within a reasonable time after the date of the questioned statement. If you wait
too long, we will make the adjustment as of the date that we receive notice of
the potential error. We also will provide you with additional periodic and other
reports, information and prospectuses as may be required by federal securities
laws.

NON-QUALIFIED ANNUITIES HELD WITHIN A QUALIFIED PLAN

If you use the Contract within an employer sponsored qualified retirement plan,
the plan may impose different or additional conditions or limitaitons on
withdrawals, waivers of withdrawal charges, death benefits, Payout Start Dates,
income payments, and other Contract features. In addition, adverse tax
consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions and other
conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan administrator for
more information. Allstate Life Insurance Company of New York no longer issues
deferred annuities to employer spnsored qualified retirement plans.

LEGAL MATTERS

All matters of New York law pertaining to the Contracts, including the validity
of the Contracts and Allstate New York's right to issue such Contracts under New
York insurance law, have been passed upon by Michael J. Velotta, General Counsel
of Allstate New York.

                                  28 PROSPECTUS




FEDERAL TAX MATTERS

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS GENERAL AND IS NOT INTENDED AS TAX ADVICE. ALLSTATE
NEW YORK MAKES NO GUARANTEE REGARDING THE TAX TREATMENT OF ANY CONTRACT OR
TRANSACTION INVOLVING A CONTRACT.

Federal, state, local and other tax consequences of ownership or receipt of
distributions under an annuity contract depend on your individual circumstances.
If you are concerned about any tax consequences with regard to your individual
circumstances, you should consult a competent tax adviser.

TAXATION OF ALLSTATE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK

Allstate New York is taxed as a life insurance company under Part I of
Subchapter L of the Code. Since the Variable Account is not an entity separate
from Allstate New York, and its operations form a part of Allstate New York, it
will not be taxed separately. Investment income and realized capital gains of
the Variable Account are automatically applied to increase reserves under the
Contract. Under existing federal income tax law, Allstate New York believes that
the Variable Account investment income and capital gains will not be taxed to
the extent that such income and gains are applied to increase the reserves under
the Contract. Accordingly, Allstate New York does not anticipate that it will
incur any federal income tax liability attributable to the Variable Account, and
therefore Allstate New York does not intend to make provisions for any such
taxes. If Allstate New York is taxed on investment income or capital gains of
the Variable Account, then Allstate New York may impose a charge against the
Variable Account in order to make provision for such taxes.

TAXATION OF VARIABLE ANNUITIES IN GENERAL

TAX DEFERRAL. Generally, you are not taxed on increases in the Contract Value
until a distribution occurs. This rule applies only where:

..    the Contract Owner is a natural person,

..    the investments of the Variable Account are "adequately diversified"
     according to Treasury Department regulations, and

..    Allstate New York is considered the owner of the Variable Account assets
     for federal income tax purposes.

NON-NATURAL OWNERS. Non-natural owners are also referred to as Non Living Owners
in this prospectus. As a general rule, annuity contracts owned by non-natural
persons such as corporations, trusts, or other entities are not treated as
annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. The income on such contracts
does not enjoy tax deferral and is taxed as ordinary income received or accrued
by the non-natural owner during the taxable year.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE NON-NATURAL OWNER RULE. There are several exceptions to the
general rule that annuity contracts held by a non-natural owner are not treated
as annuity contracts for federal income tax purposes. Contracts will generally
be treated as held by a natural person if the nominal owner is a trust or other
entity which holds the contract as agent for a natural person. However, this
special exception will not apply in the case of an employer who is the nominal
owner of an annuity contract under a non-Qualified deferred compensation
arrangement for its employees. Other exceptions to the non-natural owner rule
are: (1) contracts acquired by an estate of a decedent by reason of the death of
the decedent; (2) certain qualified contracts; (3) contracts purchased by
employers upon the termination of certain qualified plans; (4) certain contracts
used in connection with structured settlement agreements; and (5) immediate
annuity contracts, purchased with a single premium, when the annuity starting
date is no later than a year from purchase of the annuity and substantially
equal periodic payments are made, not less frequently than annually, during the
annuity period.

GRANTOR TRUST OWNED ANNUITY. Contracts owned by a grantor trust are considered
owned by a non-natural owner. Grantor trust owned contracts receive tax deferral
as described in the Exceptions to the Non-Natural Owner Rule section. In
accordance with the Code, upon the death of the annuitant, the death benefit
must be paid. According to your Contract, the Death Benefit is paid to the
surviving Contract Owner. Since the trust will be the surviving Contract Owner
in all cases, the Death Benefit will be payable to the trust notwithstanding any
beneficiary designation on the annuity contract. A trust, including a grantor
trust, has two options for receiving any death benefits: 1) a lump sum payment;
or 2) payment deferred up to five years from date of death.

DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. For a Contract to be treated as an annuity for
federal income tax purposes, the investments in the Variable Account must be
"adequately diversified" consistent with standards under Treasury Department
regulations. If the investments in the Variable Account are not adequately
diversified, the Contract will not be treated as an annuity contract for federal
income tax purposes. As a result, the income on the Contract will be taxed as
ordinary income received or accrued by the Contract owner during the taxable
year. Although Allstate New York does not have control over the Portfolios or
their investments, we expect the Portfolios to meet the diversification
requirements.

OWNERSHIP TREATMENT. The IRS has stated that a contract owner will be considered
the owner of separate account assets if he possesses incidents of ownership in
those assets, such as the ability to exercise investment control over the
assets. At the time the diversification regulations were issued, the Treasury
Department

                                  29 PROSPECTUS




announced that the regulations do not provide guidance concerning circumstances
in which investor control of the separate account investments may cause a
Contract owner to be treated as the owner of the separate account. The Treasury
Department also stated that future guidance would be issued regarding the extent
that owners could direct sub-account investments without being treated as owners
of the underlying assets of the separate account.

Your rights under the Contract are different than those described by the IRS in
private and published rulings in which it found that Contract owners were not
owners of separate account assets. For example, if your contract offers more
than twenty (20) investment alternatives you have the choice to allocate
premiums and contract values among a broader selection of investment
alternatives than described in such rulings. You may be able to transfer among
investment alternatives more frequently than in such rulings. These differences
could result in you being treated as the owner of the Variable Account. If this
occurs, income and gain from the Variable Account assets would be includible in
your gross income. Allstate New York does not know what standards will be set
forth in any regulations or rulings which the Treasury Department may issue. It
is possible that future standards announced by the Treasury Department could
adversely affect the tax treatment of your Contract. We reserve the right to
modify the Contract as necessary to attempt to prevent you from being considered
the federal tax owner of the assets of the Variable Account. However, we make no
guarantee that such modification to the Contract will be successful.

TAXATION OF PARTIAL AND FULL WITHDRAWALS. If you make a partial withdrawal under
a Non-Qualified Contract, amounts received are taxable to the extent the
Contract Value, without regard to surrender charges, exceeds the investment in
the Contract. The investment in the Contract is the gross premium paid for the
contract minus any amounts previously received from the Contract if such amounts
were properly excluded from your gross income. If you make a full withdrawal
under a Non-Qualified Contract, the amount received will be taxable only to the
extent it exceeds the investment in the Contract.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS. Generally, the rule for income taxation of annuity
payments received from a Non-Qualified Contract provides for the return of your
investment in the Contract in equal tax-free amounts over the payment period.
The balance of each payment received is taxable. For fixed annuity payments, the
amount excluded from income is determined by multiplying the payment by the
ratio of the investment in the Contract (adjusted for any refund feature or
period certain) to the total expected value of annuity payments for the term of
the Contract. If you elect variable annuity payments, the amount excluded from
taxable income is determined by dividing the investment in the Contract by the
total number of expected payments. The annuity payments will be fully taxable
after the total amount of the investment in the Contract is excluded using these
ratios. If any variable payment is less than the excludable amount you should
contact a competent tax advisor to determine how to report any unrecovered
investment. The federal tax treatment of annuity payments is unclear in some
respects. As a result, if the IRS should provide further guidance, it is
possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as taxable could be
different. If you die, and annuity payments cease before the total amount of the
investment in the Contract is recovered, the unrecovered amount will be allowed
as a deduction for your last taxable year.

WITHDRAWALS AFTER THE PAYOUT START DATE. Federal tax law is unclear regarding
the taxation of any additional withdrawal received after the Payout Start Date.
It is possible that a greater or lesser portion of such a payment could be
taxable than the amount we determine.

DISTRIBUTION AT DEATH RULES. In order to be considered an annuity contract for
federal income tax purposes, the Contract must provide:

..    if any Contract Owner dies on or after the Payout Start Date but before the
     entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, the remaining portion
     of such interest must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the
     method of distribution being used as of the date of the Contract Owner's
     death;

..    if any Contract Owner dies prior to the Payout Start Date, the entire
     interest in the Contract will be distributed within 5 years after the date
     of the Contract Owner's death. These requirements are satisfied if any
     portion of the Contract Owner's interest that is payable to (or for the
     benefit of) a designated Beneficiary is distributed over the life of such
     Beneficiary (or over a period not extending beyond the life expectancy of
     the Beneficiary) and the distributions begin within 1 year of the Contract
     Owner's death. If the Contract Owner's designated Beneficiary is the
     surviving spouse of the Contract Owner, the Contract may be continued with
     the surviving spouse as the new Contract Owner;

..    if the Contract Owner is a non-natural person, then the Annuitant will be
     treated as the Contract Owner for purposes of applying the distribution at
     death rules. In addition, a change in the Annuitant on a Contract owned by
     a non-natural person will be treated as the death of the Contract Owner.

TAXATION OF ANNUITY DEATH BENEFITS. Death Benefit amounts are included in income
as follows:

..    if distributed in a lump sum, the amounts are taxed in the same manner as a
     total withdrawal, or

..    if distributed under an Income Plan, the amounts are taxed in the same
     manner as annuity payments.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS. A 10% penalty tax applies to the taxable
amount of any

                                  30 PROSPECTUS




premature distribution from a non-Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally
applies to any distribution made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2.
However, no penalty tax is incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or becoming totally
     disabled,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made under an immediate annuity, or

..    attributable to investment in the Contract before August 14, 1982.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS. With respect to non-Qualified Contracts
using substantially equal periodic payments or immediate annuity payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the Contract Owner's attaining age 59 1/2 would be
subject to a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax
applied. The tax for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty
tax that would have been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the
years in which the exception was used. A material modification does not include
permitted changes described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a
competent tax advisor prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal
periodic payment stream.

TAX FREE EXCHANGES UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 1035. A 1035 exchange is
a tax-free exchange of a non-qualified life insurance contract, endowment
contract or annuity contract into a non-Qualified annuity contract. The contract
owner(s) must be the same on the old and new contract. Basis from the old
contract carries over to the new contract so long as we receive that information
from the relinquishing company. If basis information is never received, we will
assume that all exchanged funds represent earnings and will allocate no cost
basis to them.

PARTIAL EXCHANGES. The IRS has issued a ruling that permits partial exchanges of
annuity contracts. Under this ruling, if you take a withdrawal from a receiving
or relinquishing annuity contract within 24 months of the partial exchange, then
special aggregation rules apply for purposes of determining the taxable amount
of a distribution. The IRS has issued limited guidance on how to aggregate and
report these distributions. The IRS is expected to provide further guidance; as
a result, it is possible that the amount we calculate and report to the IRS as
taxable could be different. Your Contract may not permit partial exchanges.

TAXATION OF OWNERSHIP CHANGES. If you transfer a non-Qualified Contract without
full and adequate consideration to a person other than your spouse (or to a
former spouse incident to a divorce), you will be taxed on the difference
between the Contract Value and the investment in the Contract at the time of
transfer. Any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or pledge) of the
Contract Value is taxed as a withdrawal of such amount or portion and may also
incur the 10% penalty tax.

AGGREGATION OF ANNUITY CONTRACTS. The Code requires that all non-Qualified
deferred annuity contracts issued by Allstate New York (or its affiliates) to
the same Contract Owner during any calendar year be aggregated and treated as
one annuity contract for purposes of determining the taxable amount of a
distribution.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING

Generally, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 10% from all non-annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out of
withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold the required 10% of the taxable
amount. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using the wage
withholding rates for all annuitized distributions. The customer may elect out
of withholding by completing and signing a withholding election form. If no
election is made, we will automatically withhold using married with three
exemptions as the default. If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is
provided, we will automatically withhold using single with zero exemptions as
the default. In certain states, if there is federal withholding, then state
withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien.
Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if covered by an income tax treaty
between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's country of residence if the payee
provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number on a fully completed Form W-8BEN.
A U.S. taxpayer identification number is a social security number or an
individual taxpayer identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS
to non-resident alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social
security number. The U.S. does not have a tax treaty with all

                                  31 PROSPECTUS




countries nor do

all tax treaties provide an exclusion or lower withholding rate for annuities.

                             TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS

The income on tax sheltered annuity (TSA) and IRA investments is tax deferred,
and the income from annuities held by such plans does not receive any additional
tax deferral. You should review the annuity features, including all benefits and
expenses, prior to purchasing an annuity as a TSA or IRA. Tax Qualified
Contracts are contracts purchased as or in connection with:

..    Individual Retirement Annuities (IRAs) under Code Section 408(b);

..    Roth IRAs under Code Section 408A;

..    Simplified Employee Pension (SEP IRA) under Code Section 408(k);

..    Savings Incentive Match Plans for Employees (SIMPLE IRA) under Code Section
     408(p);

..    Tax Sheltered Annuities under Code Section 403(b);

..    Corporate and Self Employed Pension and Profit Sharing Plans under Code
     Section 401; and

..    State and Local Government and Tax-Exempt Organization Deferred
     Compensation Plans under Code Section 457.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the retirement plans listed above or to modify the Contract
to conform with tax requirements. If you use the Contract within an employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan, the plan may impose different or additional
conditions or limitations on withdrawals, waiver of charges, death benefits,
Payout Start Dates, income payments, and other Contract features. In addition,
adverse tax consequences may result if qualified plan limits on distributions
and other conditions are not met. Please consult your qualified plan
administrator for more information. Allstate New York no longer issues deferred
annuities to employer sponsored qualified retirement plans.

The tax rules applicable to participants with tax qualified annuities vary
according to the type of contract and the terms and conditions of the
endorsement. Adverse tax consequences may result from certain transactions such
as excess contributions, premature distributions, and, distributions that do not
conform to specified commencement and minimum distribution rules. Allstate New
York can issue an individual retirement annuity on a rollover or transfer of
proceeds from a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer sponsored retirement plan under
which the decedent's surviving spouse is the beneficiary. Allstate New York does
not offer an individual retirement annuity that can accept a transfer of funds
for any other, non-spousal, beneficiary of a decedent's IRA, TSA, or employer
sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Please refer to your Endorsement for IRAs or 403(b) plans, if applicable, for
additional information on your death settlement options. In the case of certain
qualified plans, the terms of the Qualified Plan Endorsement and the plans may
govern the right to benefits, regardless of the terms of the Contract.

TAXATION OF WITHDRAWALS FROM AN INDIVIDUALLY OWNED TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACT. If
you make a partial withdrawal under a Tax Qualified Contract other than a Roth
IRA, the portion of the payment that bears the same ratio to the total payment
that the investment in the Contract (i.e., nondeductible IRA contributions)
bears to the Contract Value, is excluded from your income. We do not keep track
of nondeductible contributions, and generally all tax reporting of distributions
from Tax Qualified Contracts other than Roth IRAs will indicate that the
distribution is fully taxable.

"Qualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are not included in gross income.
"Qualified distributions" are any distributions made more than five taxable
years after the taxable year of the first contribution to any Roth IRA and which
are:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made to a beneficiary after the Contract Owner's death,

..    attributable to the Contract Owner being disabled, or

..    made for a first time home purchase (first time home purchases are subject
     to a lifetime limit of $10,000).

"Nonqualified distributions" from Roth IRAs are treated as made from
contributions first and are included in gross income only to the extent that
distributions exceed contributions.

REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS. Generally, Tax Qualified Contracts (excluding
Roth IRAs) require minimum distributions upon reaching age 70 1/2. Failure to
withdraw the required minimum distribution will result in a 50% tax penalty on
the shortfall not withdrawn from the Contract. Not all income plans offered
under the Contract satisfy the requirements for minimum distributions. Because
these distributions are required under the Code and the method of calculation is
complex, please see a competent tax advisor.

THE DEATH BENEFIT AND TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Pursuant to the Code and IRS
regulations, an IRA (e.g., traditional IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA and SIMPLE IRA)
may not invest in life insurance contracts. However, an IRA may provide a death
benefit that equals the greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value.
The Contract offers a death benefit that in certain circumstances may exceed the
greater of the purchase payments or the Contract Value. We believe that the
Death Benefits offered by your Contract do not constitute life insurance under
these regulations.

                                  32 PROSPECTUS




It is also possible that certain death benefits that offer enhanced earnings
could be characterized as an incidental death benefit. If the death benefit were
so characterized, this could result in current taxable income to a Contract
Owner. In addition, there are limitations on the amount of incidental death
benefits that may be provided under qualified plans, such as in connection with
a TSA or employer sponsored qualified retirement plan.

Allstate New York reserves the right to limit the availability of the Contract
for use with any of the qualified plans listed above.

PENALTY TAX ON PREMATURE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. A 10%
penalty tax applies to the taxable amount of any premature distribution from a
Tax Qualified Contract. The penalty tax generally applies to any distribution
made prior to the date you attain age 59 1/2. However, no penalty tax is
incurred on distributions:

..    made on or after the date the Contract Owner attains age 59 1/2,

..    made as a result of the Contract Owner's death or total disability,

..    made in substantially equal periodic payments over the Contract Owner's
     life or life expectancy, or over the joint lives or joint life expectancies
     of the Contract Owner and the Beneficiary,

..    made after separation from service after age 55 (does not apply to IRAs),

..    made pursuant to an IRS levy,

..    made for certain medical expenses,

..    made to pay for health insurance premiums while unemployed (applies only
     for IRAs),

..    made for qualified higher education expenses (applies only for IRAs), and

..    made for a first time home purchase (up to a $10,000 lifetime limit and
     applies only for IRAs).

During the first 2 years of the individual's participation in a SIMPLE IRA,
distributions that are otherwise subject to the premature distribution penalty,
will be subject to a 25% penalty tax.

You should consult a competent tax advisor to determine how these exceptions may
apply to your situation.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUAL PERIODIC PAYMENTS ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. With respect
to Tax Qualified Contracts using substantially equal periodic payments as an
exception to the penalty tax on premature distributions, any additional
withdrawal or other material modification of the payment stream would violate
the requirement that payments must be substantially equal. Failure to meet this
requirement would mean that the income portion of each payment received prior to
the later of 5 years or the taxpayer's attaining age 59 1/2 would be subject to
a 10% penalty tax unless another exception to the penalty tax applied. The tax
for the year of the modification is increased by the penalty tax that would have
been imposed without the exception, plus interest for the years in which the
exception was used. A material modification does not include permitted changes
described in published IRS rulings. You should consult a competent tax advisor
prior to creating or modifying a substantially equal periodic payment stream.

INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING ON TAX QUALIFIED CONTRACTS. Generally, Allstate New York
is required to withhold federal income tax at a rate of 10% from all
non-annuitized distributions that are not considered "eligible rollover
distributions." The customer may elect out of withholding by completing and
signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we will
automatically withhold the required 10% from the taxable amount. In certain
states, if there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also
mandatory. Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax at a
rate of 20% on all "eligible rollover distributions" unless you elect to make a
"direct rollover" of such amounts to an IRA or eligible retirement plan.
Eligible rollover distributions generally include all distributions from Tax
Qualified Contracts, including TSAs but excluding IRAs, with the exception of:

..    required minimum distributions, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over a period of at
     least 10 years, or,

..    a series of substantially equal periodic payments made over the life (joint
     lives) of the participant (and beneficiary), or,

..    hardship distributions.

For all annuitized distributions that are not subject to the 20% withholding
requirement, Allstate New York is required to withhold federal income tax using
the wage withholding rates. The customer may elect out of withholding by
completing and signing a withholding election form. If no election is made, we
will automatically withhold using married with three exemptions as the default.
If no U.S. taxpayer identification number is provided, we will automatically
withhold using single with zero exemptions as the default. In certain states, if
there is federal withholding, then state withholding is also mandatory.

Election out of withholding is valid only if the customer provides a U.S.
residence address and taxpayer identification number.

Generally, Code Section 1441 provides that Allstate New York as a withholding
agent must withhold 30% of the taxable amounts paid to a non-resident alien. A
non-resident alien is someone other than a U.S. citizen or resident alien or to
certain other 'foreign persons'. Withholding may be reduced or eliminated if
covered by an income tax treaty between the U.S. and the non-resident alien's
country of residence if the payee provides a U.S. taxpayer identification number
on a fully completed Form W-8BEN. A U.S. taxpayer

                                  33 PROSPECTUS




identification number is a social security number or an individual taxpayer
identification number ("ITIN"). ITINs are issued by the IRS to non-resident
alien individuals who are not eligible to obtain a social security number. The
U.S. does not have a tax treaty with all countries nor do all tax treaties
provide an exclusion or lower withholding rate for annuities.

INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408(b) permits eligible
individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program known as an
Individual Retirement Annuity (IRA). Individual Retirement Annuities are subject
to limitations on the amount that can be contributed and on the time when
distributions may commence. Certain distributions from other types of qualified
retirement plans may be "rolled over" on a tax-deferred basis into an Individual
Retirement Annuity.

ROTH INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ANNUITIES. Code Section 408A permits eligible
individuals to make nondeductible contributions to an individual retirement
program known as a Roth Individual Retirement Annuity. Roth Individual
Retirement Annuities are subject to limitations on the amount that can be
contributed and on the time when distributions may commence.

Subject to certain limitations, a traditional Individual Retirement Account or
Annuity may be converted or "rolled over" to a Roth Individual Retirement
Annuity. The income portion of a conversion or rollover distribution is taxable
currently, but is exempted from the 10% penalty tax on premature distributions.

ANNUITIES HELD BY INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS (COMMONLY KNOWN AS CUSTODIAL

IRAS). Code Section 408 permits a custodian or trustee of an Individual
Retirement Account to purchase an annuity as an investment of the Individual
Retirement Account. If an annuity is purchased inside of an Individual
Retirement Account, then the Annuitant must be the same person as the beneficial
owner of the Individual Retirement Account.

Generally, the death benefit of an annuity held in an Individual Retirement
Account must be paid upon the death of the Annuitant. However, in most states,
the Contract permits the custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement
Account to continue the Contract in the accumulation phase, with the Annuitant's
surviving spouse as the new Annuitant, if the following conditions are met:

1)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account is the owner
     of the annuity and has the right to the death proceeds otherwise payable
     under the Contract;

2)   The deceased Annuitant was the beneficial owner of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

3)   We receive a complete request for settlement for the death of the
     Annuitant; and

4)   The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account provides us
     with a signed certification of the following:

(a)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse is the sole beneficiary of the Individual
     Retirement Account;

(b)  The Annuitant's surviving spouse has elected to continue the Individual
     Retirement Account as his or her own Individual Retirement Account; and

(c)  The custodian or trustee of the Individual Retirement Account has continued
     the Individual Retirement Account pursuant to the surviving spouse's
     election.

SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION IRA. Code Section 408(k) allows eligible employers
to establish simplified employee pension plans for their employees using
individual retirement annuities. These employers may, within specified limits,
make deductible contributions on behalf of the employees to the individual
retirement annuities. Employers intending to use the Contract in connection with
such plans should seek competent tax advice.

SAVINGS INCENTIVE MATCH PLANS FOR EMPLOYEES (SIMPLE IRA). Code Section 408(p)
allows eligible employers with 100 or fewer employees to establish SIMPLE
retirement plans for their employees using individual retirement annuities. In
general, a SIMPLE IRA consists of a salary deferral program for eligible
employees and matching or nonelective contributions made by employers. Employers
intending to purchase the Contract as a SIMPLE IRA should seek competent tax and
legal advice.

TO DETERMINE IF YOU ARE ELIGIBLE TO CONTRIBUTE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE LISTED IRAS
(TRADITIONAL, ROTH, SEP, OR SIMPLE), PLEASE REFER TO IRS PUBLICATION 590 AND
YOUR COMPETENT TAX ADVISOR.

TAX SHELTERED ANNUITIES. Code Section 403(b) provides tax-deferred retirement
savings plans for employees of certain non-profit and educational organizations.
Under Section 403(b), any contract used for a 403(b) plan must provide that
distributions attributable to salary reduction contributions made after
12/31/88, and all earnings on salary reduction contributions, may be made only
on or after the date the employee:

..    attains age 59 1/2,

..    severs employment,

..    dies,

..    becomes disabled, or

..    incurs a hardship (earnings on salary reduction contributions may not be
     distributed on account of hardship).

These limitations do not apply to withdrawals where Allstate New York is
directed to transfer some or all of the Contract Value to another 403(b) plan.
Generally, we do

                                  34 PROSPECTUS




not accept funds in 403(b) contracts that are subject to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

APPENDIX B MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

The Market Value Adjustment is based on the following:

I = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to the applicable Guarantee Period
for the week preceding the establishment of the Guarantee Period.

N = the number of whole and partial years from the date we receive the
withdrawal, transfer, or death benefit request, or from the Payout Start Date,
to the end of the Guarantee Period; and

J = the Treasury Rate for a maturity equal to N years for the week preceding the
receipt of the withdrawal, transfer, death benefit, or income payment request.
If a note for a maturity of length N is not available, a weighted average will
be used.

"Treasury Rate" means the U.S. Treasury Note Constant Maturity Yield as reported
in Federal Reserve Board Statistical Release H.15.

The Market Value Adjustment factor is determined from the following formula:

..9 X (I - J) X N

To determine the Market Value Adjustment, we will multiply the Market Value
Adjustment factor by the amount transferred (in excess of the Preferred
Withdrawal Amount) paid as a death benefit, or applied to an Income Plan, from a
Guarantee Period at any time other than during the 30 day period after such
Guarantee Period expires.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;


(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the Township of Northfield, State of Illinois on the 1st day of April, 2016.

The number of Directors may be fixed or changed from time to time, within the minimum and maximum, by the Board without further amendment to these By-laws.

Section 2. Filling of Vacancies. In the event of a vacancy occurring in the Board, the shareholders of the Company shall, by a majority vote at a special meeting called for that purpose or at the next annual meeting of shareholders, elect a Director to fill such vacancy, who shall hold office during the unexpired portion of the term of the Director whose place he or she was elected to fill. Any Director elected pursuant to this section of the By-laws shall not take office nor exercise the duties thereof until ten days after written notice of election is filed with the Superintendent of Insurance.

(C) The Company shall indemnify any Employee Indemnitee who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was an employee against amounts paid in settlement and against Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such Proceeding if he or she Acted Properly, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Company unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such Expenses which such court shall deem proper.

Section 3. Advances. Expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding shall be paid by the Company to or on behalf of a Covered Person in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding if the Company shall have received an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amounts if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in this Article and, with respect to Employee Indemnitees, the General Counsel of the Company does not disapprove counsel selected by the Employee Indemnitee.

Section 4. Procedures for Indemnification or Advance.

Any indemnification or advance under Sections 2 or 3 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific Proceeding upon a determination that indemnification or advancement to a Covered Person is proper in the circumstances. Such determination shall be made:

(A) by the Board, by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who were not made parties to such Proceeding, or

 

Page 10 of 13


(B) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable and a quorum of disinterested Directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or

(C) in the absence of a determination made under (A) or (B), by the shareholders.

Section 5. Indemnification – Other Entities. The Company shall indemnify or advance funds to any Indemnitee described in Section 1(E)(iii) only after such person shall have sought indemnification or an advance from the corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in which he or she was serving at the Company’s request, shall have failed to receive such indemnification or advance and shall have assigned irrevocably to the Company any right to receive indemnification which he or she might be entitled to assert against such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

Section 6. Miscellaneous.

(A) The indemnification provided to a Covered Person by this Article:

(i) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which such person may be entitled by law or under any articles of incorporation, by-law, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise;

(ii) shall inure to the benefit of the legal representatives of such person or his or her estate, whether such representatives are court appointed or otherwise designated, and to the benefit of the heirs of such person; and

(iii) shall be a contract right between the Company and each such person who serves in any such capacity at any time while this Article is in effect, and any repeal or modification of law or this Article shall not negatively affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts or any Proceedings then existing.

(B) The indemnification and advances provided to a Covered Person by this Article shall extend to and include claims for such payments arising out of any Proceeding commenced or based on actions of such person taken prior to the effective date of this Article; provided that payment of such claims had not been agreed to or denied by the Company at the effective date.

(C) The Company shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any Covered Person against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her as a Covered Person or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of this Article. The Company shall also have power to purchase

and maintain insurance to indemnify the Company for any obligation which it may incur as a result of the indemnification of Covered Persons under the provisions of this Article.

(D) No payment of indemnification or advance shall be made unless a notice has been filed with the Superintendent of Insurance pursuant to Section 1216 of the New York Insurance Law at least 30 days prior to such payment.

(E) If any provision of this Section is contrary to the law of New York with respect to indemnification of an agent of the Company, such provision is hereby amended to conform to the limitations of such law.

(F) The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision in this Article shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Article.

FASB issued guidance requiring equity investments, including equity securities and limited partnership interests, that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting or result in consolidation to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values may be measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. When a qualitative assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values indicates that impairment exists, the carrying value is required to be adjusted to fair value, if lower. The guidance clarifies that an entity should evaluate the realizability of a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale fixed income securities in combination with the entity&#x2019;s other deferred tax assets. The guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December&#xA0;15, 2017, and is to be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained income as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance related to equity investments without readily determinable fair values is to be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption. The most significant impact is expected to be the change in accounting for equity securities and cost method limited partnership interests.</p> </div> S-1 <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;

Amounts assessed to each company are typically related to its proportion of business written in each state. The Company&#x2019;s policy is to accrue assessments when the entity for which the insolvency relates has met its state of domicile&#x2019;s statutory definition of insolvency and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. In most states, the definition is met with a declaration of financial insolvency by a court of competent jurisdiction. In certain states there must also be a final order of liquidation. As of December&#xA0;31, 2015 and 2014, the liability balance included in other liabilities and accrued expenses was $750 thousand and $742 thousand, respectively. The related premium tax offsets included in other assets were $3.6 million as of both December&#xA0;31, 2015 and 2014.</p> <p style="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> <b>Guarantees</b></p> <p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> Related to the disposal through reinsurance of our variable annuity business to Prudential in 2006, the Company, ALIC and the Corporation have agreed to indemnify Prudential for certain pre-closing contingent liabilities (including extra-contractual liabilities of the Company and liabilities specifically excluded from the transaction) that the Company and ALIC have agreed to retain. In addition, the Company, ALIC and the Corporation will each indemnify Prudential for certain post-closing liabilities that may arise from the acts of the Company and ALIC and their agents, including certain liabilities arising from the Company&#x2019;s and ALIC&#x2019;s provision of transition services. The reinsurance agreements contain no limitations or indemnifications with regard to insurance risk transfer, and transferred all of the future risks and responsibilities for performance on the underlying variable annuity contracts to Prudential, including those related to benefit guarantees. Management does not believe this agreement will have a material effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.</p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> In the normal course of business, the Company provides standard indemnifications to contractual counterparties in connection with numerous transactions, including acquisitions and divestitures. The types of indemnifications typically provided include indemnifications for breaches of representations and warranties, taxes and certain other liabilities, such as third party lawsuits. The indemnification clauses are often standard contractual terms and are entered into in the normal course of business based on an assessment that the risk of loss would be remote. The terms of the indemnifications vary in duration and nature. In many cases, the maximum obligation is not explicitly stated and the contingencies triggering the obligation to indemnify have not occurred and are not expected to occur. Consequently, the maximum amount of the obligation under such indemnifications is not determinable. Historically, the Company has not made any material payments pursuant to these obligations.</p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> The aggregate liability balance related to all guarantees was not material as of December&#xA0;31, 2015.</p> <p style="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> <b>Regulation and Compliance</b></p> <p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> The Company is subject to extensive laws, regulations and regulatory actions. From time to time, regulatory authorities or legislative bodies seek to impose additional regulations regarding agent and broker compensation, regulate the nature of and amount of investments, impose fines and penalties for unintended errors or mistakes, and otherwise expand overall regulation of insurance products and the insurance industry. In addition, the Company is subject to laws and regulations administered and enforced by federal agencies and other organizations, including but not limited to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and the U.S. Department of Justice. The Company has established procedures and policies to facilitate compliance with laws and regulations, to foster prudent business operations, and to support financial reporting. The Company routinely reviews its practices to validate compliance with laws and regulations and with internal procedures and policies. As a result of these reviews, from time to time the Company may decide to modify some of its procedures and policies. Such modifications, and the reviews that led to them, may be accompanied by payments being made and costs being incurred. The ultimate changes and eventual effects of these actions on the Company&#x2019;s business, if any, are uncertain.</p> </div> 0.005 0.015 2669000 <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;

The hierarchy for inputs used in determining fair value maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Assets and liabilities recorded on the Statements of Financial Position at fair value are categorized in the fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 6pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> &#xA0;</p> <table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td valign="top" width="7%" align="left"><i>Level&#xA0;1:</i></td> <td valign="top" align="left">Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company can access.</td> </tr> </table> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 6pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> &#xA0;</p> <table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td valign="top" width="7%" align="left"><i>Level&#xA0;2:</i></td> <td valign="top" align="left">Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:</td> </tr> </table> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 6pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> &#xA0;</p> <table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td width="7%">&#xA0;</td> <td valign="top" width="5%" align="left">(a)</td> <td valign="top" align="left">Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;</td> </tr> </table> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 6pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> &#xA0;</p> <table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td width="7%">&#xA0;</td> <td valign="top" width="5%" align="left">(b)</td> <td valign="top" align="left">Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or</td> </tr> </table> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 6pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> &#xA0;</p> <table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td width="7%">&#xA0;</td> <td valign="top" width="5%" align="left">(c)</td> <td valign="top" align="left">Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.</td> </tr> </table> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 6pt; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> &#xA0;</p> <table style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" border="0"> <tr> <td valign="top" width="7%" align="left"><i>Level&#xA0;3:</i></td> <td valign="top" align="left">Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

In situations where fair value is based on internally developed pricing models or inputs that are unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. The degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is typically greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. In many instances, valuation inputs used to measure fair value fall into different&#xA0;levels of the fair value hierarchy.&#xA0;The category level in the fair value hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement&#xA0;in its entirety. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruption, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company is responsible for the determination of fair value and the supporting assumptions and methodologies. The Company gains assurance that assets and liabilities are appropriately valued through the execution of various processes and controls designed to ensure the overall reasonableness and consistent application of valuation methodologies, including inputs and assumptions, and compliance with accounting standards. For fair values received from third parties or internally estimated, the Company&#x2019;s processes and controls are designed to ensure that the valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistently applied, the inputs and assumptions are reasonable and consistent with the objective of determining fair value, and the fair values are accurately recorded. For example, on a continuing basis, the Company assesses the reasonableness of individual fair values that have stale security prices or that exceed certain thresholds as compared to previous fair values received from valuation service providers or brokers or derived from internal models. The Company performs procedures to understand and assess the methodologies, processes and controls of valuation service providers. In addition, the Company may validate the reasonableness of fair values by comparing information obtained from valuation service providers or brokers to other third party valuation sources for selected securities. The Company performs ongoing price validation procedures such as back-testing of actual sales, which corroborate the various inputs used in internal models to market observable data. When fair value determinations are expected to be more variable, the Company validates them through reviews by members of management who have relevant expertise and who are independent of those charged with executing investment transactions.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company has two types of situations where investments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The first is where specific inputs significant to the fair value estimation models are not market observable. This primarily occurs in the Company&#x2019;s use of broker quotes to value certain securities where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable, and the use of valuation models that use significant non-market observable inputs.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The second situation where the Company classifies securities in Level 3 is where quotes continue to be received from independent third-party valuation service providers and all significant inputs are market observable; however, there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset when compared to normal market activity such that the degree of market observability has declined to a point where categorization as a Level 3 measurement is considered appropriate. The indicators considered in determining whether a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for a specific asset has occurred include the level of new issuances in the primary market, trading volume in the secondary market, the level of credit spreads over historical levels, applicable bid-ask spreads, and price consensus among market participants and other pricing sources.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Certain assets are not carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including investments such as mortgage loans, limited partnership interests and policy loans. Accordingly, such investments are only included in the fair value hierarchy disclosure when the investment is subject to remeasurement at fair value after initial recognition and the resulting remeasurement is reflected in the financial statements. In addition, derivatives embedded in fixed income securities are not disclosed in the hierarchy as free-standing derivatives since they are presented with the host contracts in fixed income securities.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> In determining fair value, the Company principally uses the market approach which generally utilizes market transaction data for the same or similar instruments. To a lesser extent, the Company uses the income approach which involves determining fair values from discounted cash flow methodologies.

All reasonably available information relevant to the collectability of the security, including past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable assumptions and forecasts, are considered when developing the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected. That information generally includes, but is not limited to, the remaining payment terms of the security, prepayment speeds, foreign exchange rates, the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer, expected defaults, expected recoveries, the value of underlying collateral, vintage, geographic concentration of underlying collateral, available reserves or escrows, current subordination levels, third party guarantees and other credit enhancements. Other information, such as industry analyst reports and forecasts, sector credit ratings, financial condition of the bond insurer for insured fixed income securities, and other market data relevant to the realizability of contractual cash flows, may also be considered. The estimated fair value of collateral will be used to estimate recovery value if the Company determines that the security is dependent on the liquidation of collateral for ultimate settlement. If the estimated recovery value is less than the amortized cost of the security, a credit loss exists and an other-than-temporary impairment for the difference between the estimated recovery value and amortized cost is recorded in earnings. The portion of the unrealized loss related to factors other than credit remains classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. If the Company determines that the fixed income security does not have sufficient cash flow or other information to estimate a recovery value for the security, the Company may conclude that the entire decline in fair value is deemed to be credit related and the loss is recorded in earnings.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px;

If a security meets either of these criteria, the security&#x2019;s decline in fair value is considered other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> If the Company has not made the decision to sell the fixed income security and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the fixed income security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company evaluates whether it expects to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. The Company calculates the estimated recovery value by discounting the best estimate of future cash flows at the security&#x2019;s original or current effective rate, as appropriate, and compares this to the amortized cost of the security. If the Company does not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the fixed income security, the credit loss component of the impairment is recorded in earnings, with the remaining amount of the unrealized loss related to other factors recognized in other comprehensive income.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> For equity securities, the Company considers various factors, including whether it has the intent and ability to hold the equity security for a period of time sufficient to recover its cost basis. Where the Company lacks the intent and ability to hold to recovery, or believes the recovery period is extended, the equity security&#x2019;s decline in fair value is considered other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> For fixed income and equity securities managed by third parties, either the Company has contractually retained its decision making authority as it pertains to selling securities that are in an unrealized loss position or it recognizes any unrealized loss at the end of the period through a charge to earnings.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company&#x2019;s portfolio monitoring process includes a quarterly review of all securities to identify instances where the fair value of a security compared to its amortized cost (for fixed income securities) or cost (for equity securities) is below established thresholds. The process also includes the monitoring of other impairment indicators such as ratings, ratings downgrades and payment defaults. The securities identified, in addition to other securities for which the Company may have a concern, are evaluated for potential other-than-temporary impairment using all reasonably available information relevant to the collectability or recovery of the security. Inherent in the Company&#x2019;s evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment for these fixed income and equity securities are assumptions and estimates about the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer. Some of the factors that may be considered in evaluating whether a decline in fair value is other than temporary are: 1) the financial condition, near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer, including relevant industry specific market conditions and trends, geographic location and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices; 2) the specific reasons that a security is in an unrealized loss position, including overall market conditions which could affect liquidity; and 3) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost or cost.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px;

Of the $52.6 million, $30.3 million are related to unrealized losses on investment grade fixed income securities and $8.4 million are related to equity securities. Of the remaining $27.4 million, $20.3 million have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months. Investment grade is defined as a security having a rating of Aaa, Aa, A or Baa from Moody&#x2019;s, a rating of AAA, AA, A or BBB from S&amp;P, Fitch, Dominion, Kroll or Realpoint, a rating of aaa, aa, a or bbb from A.M. Best, or a comparable internal rating if an externally provided rating is not available. Market prices for certain securities may have credit spreads which imply higher or lower credit quality than the current third party rating. Unrealized losses on investment grade securities are principally related to increasing risk-free interest rates or widening credit spreads since the time of initial purchase.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> As of December&#xA0;31, 2015, the remaining $27.4 million of unrealized losses are related to securities in unrealized loss positions greater than or equal to 20% of amortized cost or cost. Investment grade fixed income securities comprising $9.5 million of these unrealized losses were evaluated based on factors such as discounted cash flows and the financial condition and near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer and were determined to have adequate resources to fulfill contractual obligations.&#xA0;Of the $27.4&#xA0;million, $11.0 million are related to below investment grade fixed income securities and $6.9 million are related to equity securities. Of these amounts, $7.1 million are related to below investment grade fixed income securities that had been in an unrealized loss position greater than or equal to 20% of amortized cost for a period of twelve or more consecutive months as of December&#xA0;31, 2015.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> RMBS, CMBS and ABS in an unrealized loss position were evaluated based on actual and projected collateral losses relative to the securities&#x2019; positions in the respective securitization trusts, security specific expectations of cash flows, and credit ratings. This evaluation also takes into consideration credit enhancement, measured in terms of (i)&#xA0;subordination from other classes of securities in the trust that are contractually obligated to absorb losses before the class of security the Company owns, (ii)&#xA0;the expected impact of other structural features embedded in the securitization trust beneficial to the class of securities the Company owns, such as overcollateralization and excess spread, and (iii)&#xA0;for RMBS and ABS in an unrealized loss position, credit enhancements from reliable bond insurers, where applicable. Municipal bonds in an unrealized loss position were evaluated based on the underlying credit quality of the primary obligor, obligation type and quality of the underlying assets. Unrealized losses on equity securities are primarily related to temporary equity market fluctuations of securities that are expected to recover.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> As of December&#xA0;31, 2015, the Company has not made the decision to sell and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell fixed income securities with unrealized losses before recovery of the amortized cost basis.

The Company recognizes an impairment loss for equity method limited partnerships when evidence demonstrates that the loss is other than temporary. Evidence of a loss in value that is other than temporary may include the absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or the inability of the investee to sustain a level of earnings that would justify the carrying amount of the investment.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> As of December&#xA0;31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying value for cost method limited partnerships was $64.5 million and $52.5&#xA0;million, respectively. To determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, the Company evaluates whether an impairment indicator has occurred in the period that may have a significant adverse effect on the carrying value of the investment. Impairment indicators may include: significantly reduced valuations of the investments held by the limited partnerships; actual recent cash flows received being significantly less than expected cash flows; reduced valuations based on financing completed at a lower value; completed sale of a material underlying investment at a price significantly lower than expected; or any other adverse events since the last financial statements received that might affect the fair value of the investee&#x2019;s capital. Additionally, the Company&#x2019;s portfolio monitoring process includes a quarterly review of all cost method limited partnerships to identify instances where the net asset value is below established thresholds for certain periods of time, as well as investments that are performing below expectations, for further impairment consideration. If a cost method limited partnership is other-than-temporarily impaired, the carrying value is written down to fair value, generally estimated to be equivalent to the reported net asset value.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Mortgage loans</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company&#x2019;s mortgage loans are commercial mortgage loans collateralized by a variety of commercial real estate property types located across the United States and totaled, net of valuation allowance, $614.2 million and $493.8 million as of December&#xA0;31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Mortgage loans are considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will not collect the contractual principal and interest. Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans to reduce the carrying value to the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell or the present value of the loan&#x2019;s expected future repayment cash flows discounted at the loan&#x2019;s original effective interest rate. Impaired mortgage loans may not have a valuation allowance when the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell is higher than the carrying value. Valuation allowances are adjusted for subsequent changes in the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell or present value of the loan&#x2019;s expected future repayment cash flows. Mortgage loans are charged off against their corresponding valuation allowances when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The impairment evaluation is non-statistical in respect to the aggregate portfolio but considers facts and circumstances attributable to each loan. It is not considered probable that additional impairment losses, beyond those identified on a specific loan basis, have been incurred as of December&#xA0;31, 2015.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Accrual of income is suspended for mortgage loans that are in default or when full and timely collection of principal and interest payments is not probable.

Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss due to adverse changes in interest rates relative to the interest rate characteristics of its interest bearing assets and liabilities. This risk arises from many of the Company&#x2019;s primary activities, as it invests substantial funds in interest-sensitive assets and issues interest-sensitive liabilities. Interest rate risk includes risks related to changes in U.S. Treasury yields and other key risk-free reference yields. Credit spread risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss due to adverse changes in credit spreads. This risk arises from many of the Company&#x2019;s primary activities, as the Company invests substantial funds in spread-sensitive fixed income assets. Equity price risk is the risk that the Company will incur losses due to adverse changes in the general levels of the equity markets.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company monitors economic and regulatory developments that have the potential to impact its business.

Congress and various state legislatures also consider proposals to reduce the taxation of certain products or investments that may compete with life insurance. Legislation that increases the taxation on insurance products or reduces the taxation on competing products could lessen the advantage or create a disadvantage for certain of the Company&#x2019;s products making them less competitive. Such proposals, if adopted, could have an adverse effect on the Company&#x2019;s financial position or ability to sell such products and could result in the surrender of some existing contracts and policies.

The difference between amortized cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes and related deferred policy acquisition costs (&#x201C;DAC&#x201D;), deferred sales inducement costs (&#x201C;DSI&#x201D;) and reserves for life-contingent contract benefits, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Cash received from calls and make-whole payments is reflected as a component of proceeds from sales and cash received from maturities and pay-downs is reflected as a component of investment collections within the Statements of Cash Flows.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Mortgage loans are carried at unpaid principal balances, net of unamortized premium or discount and valuation allowances. Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans when it is probable that contractual principal and interest will not be collected.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Equity securities primarily include common stocks, exchange traded funds, non-redeemable preferred stocks and real estate investment trust equity investments. Equity securities are designated as available for sale and are carried at fair value. The difference between cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Investments in limited partnership interests include interests in private equity funds and co-investments, real estate funds, and other funds. Where the Company&#x2019;s interest is so minor that it exercises virtually no influence over operating and financial policies, investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the cost method of accounting; all other investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting (&#x201C;EMA&#x201D;).</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Short-term investments, including money market funds, commercial paper and other short-term investments, are carried at fair value. Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances. Other investments consist of derivatives. Derivatives are carried at fair value.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Investment income primarily consists of interest, dividends, income from limited partnership interests, and income from certain derivative transactions. Interest is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method and dividends are recorded at the ex-dividend date. Interest income for RMBS, CMBS and ABS is determined considering estimated pay-downs, including prepayments, obtained from third party data sources and internal estimates. Actual prepayment experience is periodically reviewed and effective yields are recalculated when differences arise between the prepayments originally anticipated and the actual prepayments received and currently anticipated. For RMBS, CMBS and ABS of high credit quality with fixed interest rates, the effective yield is recalculated on a retrospective basis. For all others, the effective yield is recalculated on a prospective basis. Accrual of income is suspended for other-than-temporarily impaired fixed income securities when the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be received is not reasonably estimable. Accrual of income is suspended for mortgage loans that are in default or when full and timely collection of principal and interest payments is not probable. Cash receipts on investments on nonaccrual status are generally recorded as a reduction of carrying value. Income from cost method limited partnership interests is recognized upon receipt of amounts distributed by the partnerships. Income from EMA limited partnership interests is recognized based on the Company&#x2019;s share of the partnerships&#x2019; net income, including unrealized gains and losses, and is generally recognized on a three month delay due to the availability of the related financial statements.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Realized capital gains and losses include gains and losses on investment sales, write-downs in value due to other-than-temporary declines in fair value, adjustments to valuation allowances on mortgage loans, and periodic changes in fair value and settlements of certain derivatives including hedge ineffectiveness. Realized capital gains and losses on investment sales are determined on a specific identification basis.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 18px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> <b>Derivative and embedded derivative financial instruments</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Derivative financial instruments include options, interest rate caps, foreign currency forwards and a reinvestment related risk transfer reinsurance agreement with ALIC that meets the accounting definition of a derivative (see Note 4). Derivatives required to be separated from the host instrument and accounted for as derivative financial instruments (&#x201C;subject to bifurcation&#x201D;) are embedded in certain fixed income securities, equity-indexed life contracts and reinsured variable annuity contracts.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> All derivatives are accounted for on a fair value basis and reported as other investments, other assets, other liabilities and accrued expenses or contractholder funds. The income statement effects of derivatives, including fair value gains and losses and accrued periodic settlements, are reported in realized capital gains and losses or in a single line item together with the results of the associated liability for which risks are being managed. Embedded derivative instruments subject to bifurcation are also accounted for on a fair value basis and are reported together with the host contract. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in certain fixed income securities and subject to bifurcation is reported in realized capital gains and losses. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in life and annuity product contracts and subject to bifurcation is reported in contract benefits or interest credited to contractholder funds. Cash flows from embedded derivatives subject to bifurcation are reported consistently with the host contracts within the Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from other derivatives are reported in cash flows from investing activities within the Statements of Cash Flows.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Securities loaned</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company&#x2019;s business activities include securities lending transactions, which are used primarily to generate net investment income. The proceeds received in conjunction with securities lending transactions are reinvested in short-term investments. These transactions are short-term in nature, usually 30 days or less.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company receives cash collateral for securities loaned in an amount generally equal to 102% of the fair value of securities and records the related obligations to return the collateral in other liabilities and accrued expenses. The carrying value of these obligations approximates fair value because of their relatively short-term nature. The Company monitors the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and obtains additional collateral as necessary under the terms of the agreements to mitigate counterparty credit risk. The Company maintains the right and ability to repossess the securities loaned on short notice.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Recognition of premium revenues and contract charges, and related benefits and interest credited</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Traditional life insurance products consist principally of products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits, primarily term and whole life insurance products. Voluntary accident and health insurance products are expected to remain in force for an extended period and therefore are primarily classified as long-duration contracts. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when due from policyholders. Benefits are reflected in contract benefits and recognized in relation to premiums, so that profits are recognized over the life of the policy.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Immediate annuities with life contingencies, including certain structured settlement annuities, provide insurance protection over a period that extends beyond the period during which premiums are collected. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when received at the inception of the contract. Benefits and expenses are recognized in relation to premiums. Profits from these policies come from investment income, which is recognized over the life of the contract.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Interest-sensitive life contracts, such as universal life and single premium life, are insurance contracts whose terms are not fixed and guaranteed. The terms that may be changed include premiums paid by the contractholder, interest credited to the contractholder account balance and contract charges assessed against the contractholder account balance. Premiums from these contracts are reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for the cost of insurance (mortality risk), contract administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. These contract charges are recognized as revenue when assessed against the contractholder account balance. Contract benefits include life-contingent benefit payments in excess of the contractholder account balance.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Contracts that do not subject the Company to significant risk arising from mortality or morbidity are referred to as investment contracts. Fixed annuities, including market value adjusted annuities and immediate annuities without life contingencies, are considered investment contracts. Consideration received for such contracts is reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges for investment contracts consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for maintenance, administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates, and are recognized when assessed against the contractholder account balance.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Interest credited to contractholder funds represents interest accrued or paid on interest-sensitive life and investment contracts. Crediting rates for certain fixed annuities and interest-sensitive life contracts are adjusted periodically by the Company to reflect current market conditions subject to contractually guaranteed minimum rates. Crediting rates for indexed life contracts are generally based on an equity index, such as the Standard&#xA0;&amp; Poor&#x2019;s (&#x201C;S&amp;P&#x201D;) 500 Index. Interest credited also includes amortization of DSI expenses. DSI is amortized into interest credited using the same method used to amortize DAC.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Contract charges for variable life and variable annuity products consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balances for contract maintenance, administration, mortality, expense and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. Contract benefits incurred for variable annuity products include guaranteed minimum death, income, withdrawal and accumulation benefits. All of the Company&#x2019;s variable annuity business is ceded through reinsurance agreements and the contract charges and contract benefits related thereto are reported net of reinsurance ceded.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Deferred policy acquisition and sales inducement costs</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal life insurance and investment contracts are deferred and recorded as DAC. These costs are principally agents&#x2019; and brokers&#x2019; remuneration and certain underwriting expenses. DSI costs, which are deferred and recorded as other assets, relate to sales inducements offered on sales to new customers, principally on fixed annuity and interest-sensitive life contracts. These sales inducements are primarily in the form of additional credits to the customer&#x2019;s account balance or enhancements to interest credited for a specified period which are in excess of the rates currently being credited to similar contracts without sales inducements. All other acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and included in operating costs and expenses. Amortization of DAC is included in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and is described in more detail below. DSI is amortized into income using the same methodology and assumptions as DAC and is included in interest credited to contractholder funds.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> For traditional life insurance, DAC is amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the estimated revenues on such business. Assumptions used in the amortization of DAC and reserve calculations are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not revised during the life of the policy. Any deviations from projected business in force resulting from actual policy terminations differing from expected levels and any estimated premium deficiencies may result in a change to the rate of amortization in the period such events occur. Generally, the amortization periods for these policies approximates the estimated lives of the policies. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. The Company aggregates all traditional life insurance products and immediate annuities with life contingencies in the analysis. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> For interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities, DAC and DSI are amortized in proportion to the incidence of the total present value of gross profits, which includes both actual historical gross profits (&#x201C;AGP&#x201D;) and estimated future gross profits (&#x201C;EGP&#x201D;) expected to be earned over the estimated lives of the contracts. The amortization is net of interest on the prior period DAC balance using rates established at the inception of the contracts. Actual amortization periods generally range from 15-30 years; however, incorporating estimates of the rate of customer surrenders, partial withdrawals and deaths generally results in the majority of the DAC being amortized during the surrender charge period, which is typically 10-20 years for interest-sensitive life and 5-10 years for fixed annuities. The cumulative DAC and DSI amortization is reestimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income when there is a difference between the incidence of actual versus expected gross profits in a reporting period or when there is a change in total EGP. When DAC or DSI amortization or a component of gross profits for a quarterly period is potentially negative (which would result in an increase of the DAC or DSI balance) as a result of negative AGP, the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the potential negative amortization are considered to determine whether it is appropriate for recognition in the financial statements. Negative amortization is only recorded when the increased DAC or DSI balance is determined to be recoverable based on facts and circumstances. Recapitalization of DAC and DSI is limited to the originally deferred costs plus interest.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> AGP and EGP primarily consist of the following components: contract charges for the cost of insurance less mortality costs and other benefits; investment income and realized capital gains and losses less interest credited; and surrender and other contract charges less maintenance expenses. The principal assumptions for determining the amount of EGP are persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses on assets supporting contract liabilities, interest crediting rates to contractholders, and the effects of any hedges. For products whose supporting investments are exposed to capital losses in excess of the Company&#x2019;s expectations which may cause periodic AGP to become temporarily negative, EGP and AGP utilized in DAC and DSI amortization may be modified to exclude the excess capital losses.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company performs quarterly reviews of DAC and DSI recoverability for interest-sensitive life and fixed annuity contracts in the aggregate using current assumptions. If a change in the amount of EGP is significant, it could result in the unamortized DAC or DSI not being recoverable, resulting in a charge which is included as a component of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The DAC and DSI balances presented include adjustments to reflect the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized capital gains or losses in the respective product investment portfolios were actually realized. The adjustments are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income. DAC, DSI and deferred income taxes determined on unrealized capital gains and losses and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income recognize the impact on shareholder&#x2019;s equity consistently with the amounts that would be recognized in the income statement on realized capital gains and losses.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Customers of the Company may exchange one insurance policy or investment contract for another offered by the Company, or make modifications to an existing investment or life contract issued by the Company. These transactions are identified as internal replacements for accounting purposes. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in replacement contracts that are substantially unchanged from the replaced contracts are accounted for as continuations of the replaced contracts. Unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts continue to be deferred and amortized in connection with the replacement contracts. For interest-sensitive life and investment contracts, the EGP of the replacement contracts are treated as a revision to the EGP of the replaced contracts in the determination of amortization of DAC and DSI. For traditional life insurance policies, any changes to unamortized DAC that result from replacement contracts are treated as prospective revisions. Any costs associated with the issuance of replacement contracts are characterized as maintenance costs and expensed as incurred. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in a substantial change to the replaced contracts are accounted for as an extinguishment of the replaced contracts, and any unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts are eliminated with a corresponding charge to amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Reinsurance</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to limit aggregate and single exposure to losses on large risks by purchasing reinsurance. The Company has also used reinsurance to effect the disposition of certain blocks of business. The amounts reported as reinsurance recoverables include amounts billed to reinsurers on losses paid as well as estimates of amounts expected to be recovered from reinsurers on insurance liabilities and contractholder funds that have not yet been paid. Reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses are estimated based upon assumptions consistent with those used in establishing the liabilities related to the underlying reinsured contracts. Insurance liabilities are reported gross of reinsurance recoverables. Reinsurance premiums are generally reflected in income in a manner consistent with the recognition of premiums on the reinsured contracts. Reinsurance does not extinguish the Company&#x2019;s primary liability under the policies written. Therefore, the Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and establishes allowances for uncollectible reinsurance as appropriate.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company has a reinsurance treaty with ALIC through which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities. The terms of the treaty meet the accounting definition of a derivative. Accordingly, the treaty is recorded in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the treaty and premiums paid to ALIC are recognized in realized capital gains and losses.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Income taxes</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The income tax provision is calculated under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates. The principal assets and liabilities giving rise to such differences are unrealized capital gains and losses, differences in tax bases of invested assets, insurance reserves and DAC. A deferred tax asset valuation allowance is established when there is uncertainty that such assets will be realized.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 18px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"> <b>Reserve for life-contingent contract benefits</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The reserve for life-contingent contract benefits payable under insurance policies, including traditional life insurance, life-contingent immediate annuities and voluntary accident and health insurance products, is computed on the basis of long-term actuarial assumptions of future investment yields, mortality, morbidity, policy terminations and expenses. These assumptions, which for traditional life insurance are applied using the net level premium method, include provisions for adverse deviation and generally vary by characteristics such as type of coverage, year of issue and policy duration. The assumptions are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not changed during the life of the policy. The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of reserves for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required. To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities would result in a premium deficiency if those gains were realized, the related increase in reserves for certain immediate annuities with life contingencies is recorded net of tax as a reduction of unrealized net capital gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Contractholder funds</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Contractholder funds represent interest-bearing liabilities arising from the sale of products such as interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities. Contractholder funds primarily comprise cumulative deposits received and interest credited to the contractholder less cumulative contract benefits, surrenders, withdrawals and contract charges for mortality or administrative expenses. Contractholder funds also include reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance and certain fixed annuity contracts and reserves for certain guarantees on reinsured variable annuity contracts.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <b>Separate accounts</b></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Separate accounts assets are carried at fair value. The assets of the separate accounts are legally segregated and available only to settle separate account contract obligations. Separate accounts liabilities represent the contractholders&#x2019; claims to the related assets and are carried at an amount equal to the separate accounts assets. 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&#x2019;s Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Deposits to and surrenders and withdrawals from the separate accounts are reflected in separate accounts liabilities and are not included in cash flows.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Absent any contract provision wherein the Company provides a guarantee, variable annuity and variable life insurance contractholders bear the investment risk that the separate accounts&#x2019; funds may not meet their stated investment objectives.

The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December&#xA0;15, 2015.&#xA0;The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of adoption which is not expected to be material to the Company&#x2019;s results of operations or financial position.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"> <i>Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities</i></p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring equity investments, including equity securities and limited partnership interests, that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting or result in consolidation to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values may be measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. When a qualitative assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values indicates that impairment exists, the carrying value is required to be adjusted to fair value, if lower. The guidance clarifies that an entity should evaluate the realizability of a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale fixed income securities in combination with the entity&#x2019;s other deferred tax assets. The guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December&#xA0;15, 2017, and is to be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained income as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance related to equity investments without readily determinable fair values is to be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption. The most significant impact is expected to be the change in accounting for equity securities and cost method limited partnership interests.</p> </div> <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;

Actual prepayment experience is periodically reviewed and effective yields are recalculated when differences arise between the prepayments originally anticipated and the actual prepayments received and currently anticipated.

TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The reserve for life-contingent contract benefits payable under insurance policies, including traditional life insurance, life-contingent immediate annuities and voluntary accident and health insurance products, is computed on the basis of long-term actuarial assumptions of future investment yields, mortality, morbidity, policy terminations and expenses. These assumptions, which for traditional life insurance are applied using the net level premium method, include provisions for adverse deviation and generally vary by characteristics such as type of coverage, year of issue and policy duration. The assumptions are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not changed during the life of the policy. The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of reserves for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required. To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities would result in a premium deficiency if those gains were realized, the related increase in reserves for certain immediate annuities with life contingencies is recorded net of tax as a reduction of unrealized net capital gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income.</p> </div> -0.007 <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt;

Premiums from these contracts are reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for the cost of insurance (mortality risk), contract administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates.

Depending upon the attributes of the assets acquired and liabilities issued, derivative instruments such as interest rate caps are utilized to change the interest rate characteristics of existing assets and liabilities to ensure the relationship is maintained within specified ranges and to reduce exposure to rising or falling interest rates. Options are used for hedging the equity exposure contained in the Company&#x2019;s equity indexed life product contracts that offer equity returns to contractholders. Foreign currency forwards are primarily used by the Company to reduce the foreign currency risk associated with holding foreign currency denominated investments. The Company also has a reinsurance treaty that is recorded as a derivative instrument, under which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities to ALIC.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company also has derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts that are required to be separated from the host contracts and accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value of embedded derivatives reported in net income. The Company&#x2019;s primary embedded derivatives are guaranteed minimum accumulation and withdrawal benefits in reinsured variable annuity contracts; equity options in life product contracts, which provide equity returns to contractholders; and conversion options in fixed income securities, which provide the Company with the right to convert the instrument into a predetermined number of shares of common stock.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The notional amounts specified in the contracts are used to calculate the exchange of contractual payments under the agreements and are generally not representative of the potential for gain or loss on these agreements. Fair value, which is equal to the carrying value, is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the derivative contracts at the reporting date. The carrying value amounts for OTC derivatives are further adjusted for the effects, if any, of enforceable master netting agreements and are presented on a net basis, by counterparty agreement, in the Statements of Financial Position. For certain exchange traded derivatives, margin deposits are required as well as daily cash settlements of margin accounts.&#xA0;As of December&#xA0;31, 2015, the Company pledged $60 thousand of cash in the form of margin deposits.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Non-hedge accounting is generally used for &#x201C;portfolio&#x201D; level hedging strategies where the terms of the individual hedged items do not meet the strict homogeneity requirements to permit the application of hedge accounting. For non-hedge derivatives, net income includes changes in fair value and accrued periodic settlements, when applicable. With the exception of non-hedge embedded derivatives, all of the Company&#x2019;s derivatives are evaluated for their ongoing effectiveness as either accounting hedge or non-hedge derivative financial instruments on at least a quarterly basis.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The following table provides a summary of the volume and fair value positions of derivative instruments as well as their reporting location in the Statement of Financial Position as of December&#xA0;31, 2015.

The Company uses MNAs for OTC derivative transactions that permit either party to net payments due for transactions and collateral is either pledged or obtained when certain predetermined exposure limits are exceeded. As of December&#xA0;31, 2015, the Company did not have any collateral pledged to or from counterparties. The Company has not incurred any losses on derivative financial instruments due to counterparty nonperformance. Other derivatives, including option contracts, are traded on organized exchanges which require margin deposits and guarantee the execution of trades, thereby mitigating any potential credit risk.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Counterparty credit exposure represents the Company&#x2019;s potential loss if all of the counterparties concurrently fail to perform under the contractual terms of the contracts and all collateral, if any, becomes worthless.

Credit-risk-contingent cross-default provisions allow the counterparties to terminate the derivative agreement if the Company defaults by pre-determined threshold amounts on certain debt instruments. Credit-risk-contingent credit support annex agreements specify the amount of collateral the Company must post to counterparties based on the Company&#x2019;s financial strength credit ratings by Moody&#x2019;s or S&amp;P, or in the event the Company is no longer rated by either Moody&#x2019;s or S&amp;P.

Prescribed statutory accounting practices include a variety of publications of the NAIC, as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed.</p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> The State of New York requires insurance companies domiciled in its state to prepare statutory-basis financial statements in conformity with the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, subject to any deviations prescribed or permitted by the State of New York Insurance Superintendent. Statutory accounting practices differ from GAAP primarily since they require charging policy acquisition and certain sales inducement costs to expense as incurred, establishing life insurance reserves based on different actuarial assumptions, and valuing certain investments and establishing deferred taxes on a different basis.</p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> Statutory net (loss) income was $(63.9) million, $31.3 million and $25.9 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The payment of shareholder dividends by the Company without the prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services (&#x201C;NYDFS&#x201D;) is limited to formula amounts based on capital and surplus and net gain from operations excluding realized capital gains and losses, determined in conformity with statutory accounting practices, as well as the timing and amount of dividends paid in the preceding twelve months. During 2016, the Company will not be able to pay dividends without prior NYDFS approval. Any dividend must be paid out of unassigned surplus excluding unrealized appreciation from investments, which totaled $341.6&#xA0;million as of December&#xA0;31, 2015, and cannot result in capital and surplus being less than the minimum amount required by law.</p> <p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"> Under state insurance laws, insurance companies are required to maintain paid up capital of not less than the minimum capital requirement applicable to the types of insurance they are authorized to write. Insurance companies are also subject to risk-based capital (&#x201C;RBC&#x201D;) requirements adopted by state insurance regulators. A company&#x2019;s &#x201C;authorized control level RBC&#x201D; is calculated using various factors applied to certain financial balances and activity. Companies that do not maintain adjusted statutory capital and surplus at a level in excess of the company action level RBC, which is two times authorized control level RBC, are required to take specified actions. Company action level RBC is significantly in excess of the minimum capital requirements. Total adjusted statutory capital and surplus and authorized control level RBC of the Company were $602.3 million and $71.7 million, respectively, as of December&#xA0;31, 2015.</p> </div> -792000 -34907000 1.000 7315000 2000000 <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt;

MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal life insurance and investment contracts are deferred and recorded as DAC. These costs are principally agents&#x2019; and brokers&#x2019; remuneration and certain underwriting expenses. DSI costs, which are deferred and recorded as other assets, relate to sales inducements offered on sales to new customers, principally on fixed annuity and interest-sensitive life contracts. These sales inducements are primarily in the form of additional credits to the customer&#x2019;s account balance or enhancements to interest credited for a specified period which are in excess of the rates currently being credited to similar contracts without sales inducements. All other acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and included in operating costs and expenses. Amortization of DAC is included in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and is described in more detail below. DSI is amortized into income using the same methodology and assumptions as DAC and is included in interest credited to contractholder funds.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> For traditional life insurance, DAC is amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the estimated revenues on such business. Assumptions used in the amortization of DAC and reserve calculations are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not revised during the life of the policy. Any deviations from projected business in force resulting from actual policy terminations differing from expected levels and any estimated premium deficiencies may result in a change to the rate of amortization in the period such events occur. Generally, the amortization periods for these policies approximates the estimated lives of the policies. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. The Company aggregates all traditional life insurance products and immediate annuities with life contingencies in the analysis. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> For interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities, DAC and DSI are amortized in proportion to the incidence of the total present value of gross profits, which includes both actual historical gross profits (&#x201C;AGP&#x201D;) and estimated future gross profits (&#x201C;EGP&#x201D;) expected to be earned over the estimated lives of the contracts. The amortization is net of interest on the prior period DAC balance using rates established at the inception of the contracts. Actual amortization periods generally range from 15-30 years; however, incorporating estimates of the rate of customer surrenders, partial withdrawals and deaths generally results in the majority of the DAC being amortized during the surrender charge period, which is typically 10-20 years for interest-sensitive life and 5-10 years for fixed annuities. The cumulative DAC and DSI amortization is reestimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income when there is a difference between the incidence of actual versus expected gross profits in a reporting period or when there is a change in total EGP. When DAC or DSI amortization or a component of gross profits for a quarterly period is potentially negative (which would result in an increase of the DAC or DSI balance) as a result of negative AGP, the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the potential negative amortization are considered to determine whether it is appropriate for recognition in the financial statements. Negative amortization is only recorded when the increased DAC or DSI balance is determined to be recoverable based on facts and circumstances. Recapitalization of DAC and DSI is limited to the originally deferred costs plus interest.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> AGP and EGP primarily consist of the following components: contract charges for the cost of insurance less mortality costs and other benefits; investment income and realized capital gains and losses less interest credited; and surrender and other contract charges less maintenance expenses. The principal assumptions for determining the amount of EGP are persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses on assets supporting contract liabilities, interest crediting rates to contractholders, and the effects of any hedges. For products whose supporting investments are exposed to capital losses in excess of the Company&#x2019;s expectations which may cause periodic AGP to become temporarily negative, EGP and AGP utilized in DAC and DSI amortization may be modified to exclude the excess capital losses.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company performs quarterly reviews of DAC and DSI recoverability for interest-sensitive life and fixed annuity contracts in the aggregate using current assumptions. If a change in the amount of EGP is significant, it could result in the unamortized DAC or DSI not being recoverable, resulting in a charge which is included as a component of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The DAC and DSI balances presented include adjustments to reflect the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized capital gains or losses in the respective product investment portfolios were actually realized. The adjustments are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income. DAC, DSI and deferred income taxes determined on unrealized capital gains and losses and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income recognize the impact on shareholder&#x2019;s equity consistently with the amounts that would be recognized in the income statement on realized capital gains and losses.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Customers of the Company may exchange one insurance policy or investment contract for another offered by the Company, or make modifications to an existing investment or life contract issued by the Company. These transactions are identified as internal replacements for accounting purposes. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in replacement contracts that are substantially unchanged from the replaced contracts are accounted for as continuations of the replaced contracts. Unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts continue to be deferred and amortized in connection with the replacement contracts. For interest-sensitive life and investment contracts, the EGP of the replacement contracts are treated as a revision to the EGP of the replaced contracts in the determination of amortization of DAC and DSI. For traditional life insurance policies, any changes to unamortized DAC that result from replacement contracts are treated as prospective revisions. Any costs associated with the issuance of replacement contracts are characterized as maintenance costs and expensed as incurred. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in a substantial change to the replaced contracts are accounted for as an extinguishment of the replaced contracts, and any unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts are eliminated with a corresponding charge to amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.</p> </div> <div> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> The Company maintains a diversified portfolio of municipal bonds.

The benefit ratio is calculated as the estimated present value of all expected contract excess guarantee benefits divided by the present value of all expected contract charges. The establishment of reserves for these guarantees requires the projection of future fund values, mortality, persistency and customer benefit utilization rates. These assumptions are periodically reviewed and updated. For guarantees related to death benefits, benefits represent the projected excess guaranteed minimum death benefit payments. For guarantees related to income benefits, benefits represent the present value of the minimum guaranteed annuitization benefits in excess of the projected account balance at the time of annuitization.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"> Projected benefits and contract charges used in determining the liability for certain guarantees are developed using models and stochastic scenarios that are also used in the development of estimated expected gross profits. Underlying assumptions for the liability related to income benefits include assumed future annuitization elections based on factors such as the extent of benefit to the potential annuitant, eligibility conditions and the annuitant&#x2019;s attained age. The liability for guarantees is re-evaluated periodically, and adjustments are made to the liability balance through a charge or credit to contract benefits.</p> <p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt;

Unrealized net capital gains and losses for limited partnership interests represent the Company's share of EMA limited partnerships' other comprehensive income. Fair value and gross unrealized gains and losses are not applicable. The insurance reserves adjustment represents the amount by which the reserve balance would increase if the net unrealized gains in the applicable product portfolios were realized and reinvested at current lower interest rates, resulting in a premium deficiency. Although the Company evaluates premium deficiencies on the combined performance of life insurance and immediate annuities with life contingencies, the adjustment primarily relates to structured settlement annuities with life contingencies, in addition to certain payout annuities with life contingencies. The DAC and DSI adjustment balance represents the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized gains or losses in the respective product portfolios were realized.

The Company has exposure to market risk as a result of its investment portfolio. Market risk is the risk that the Company will incur realized and unrealized net capital losses due to adverse changes in interest rates, credit spreads, equity prices or currency exchange rates. The Company’s primary market risk exposures are to changes in interest rates, credit spreads and equity prices. Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss due to adverse changes in interest rates relative to the interest rate characteristics of its interest bearing assets and liabilities. This risk arises from many of the Company’s primary activities, as it invests substantial funds in interest-sensitive assets and issues interest-sensitive liabilities. Interest rate risk includes risks related to changes in U.S. Treasury yields and other key risk-free reference yields. Credit spread risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss due to adverse changes in credit spreads. This risk arises from many of the Company’s primary activities, as the Company invests substantial funds in spread-sensitive fixed income assets. Equity price risk is the risk that the Company will incur losses due to adverse changes in the general levels of the equity markets.

The Company monitors economic and regulatory developments that have the potential to impact its business. Federal and state laws and regulations affect the taxation of insurance companies and life insurance products. Congress and various state legislatures from time to time consider legislation that would reduce or eliminate the favorable policyholder tax treatment currently applicable to life insurance. Congress and various state legislatures also consider proposals to reduce the taxation of certain products or investments that may compete with life insurance. Legislation that increases the taxation on insurance products or reduces the taxation on competing products could lessen the advantage or create a disadvantage for certain of the Company’s products making them less competitive. Such proposals, if adopted, could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or ability to sell such products and could result in the surrender of some existing contracts and policies. In addition, changes in the federal estate tax laws could negatively affect the demand for the types of life insurance used in estate planning.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Investments

Fixed income securities include bonds, residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), asset-backed securities (“ABS”) and redeemable preferred stocks. Fixed income securities, which may be sold prior to their contractual maturity, are designated as available for sale and are carried at fair value. The difference between amortized cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes and related deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”), deferred sales inducement costs (“DSI”) and reserves for life-contingent contract benefits, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Cash received from calls and make-whole payments is reflected as a component of proceeds from sales and cash received from maturities and pay-downs is reflected as a component of investment collections within the Statements of Cash Flows.

Mortgage loans are carried at unpaid principal balances, net of unamortized premium or discount and valuation allowances. Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans when it is probable that contractual principal and interest will not be collected.

Equity securities primarily include common stocks, exchange traded funds, non-redeemable preferred stocks and real estate investment trust equity investments. Equity securities are designated as available for sale and are carried at fair value. The difference between cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Investments in limited partnership interests include interests in private equity funds and co-investments, real estate funds, and other funds. Where the Company’s interest is so minor that it exercises virtually no influence over operating and financial policies, investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the cost method of accounting; all other investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting (“EMA”).

Short-term investments, including money market funds, commercial paper and other short-term investments, are carried at fair value. Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances. Other investments consist of derivatives. Derivatives are carried at fair value.

Investment income primarily consists of interest, dividends, income from limited partnership interests, and income from certain derivative transactions. Interest is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method and dividends are recorded at the ex-dividend date. Interest income for RMBS, CMBS and ABS is determined considering estimated pay-downs, including prepayments, obtained from third party data sources and internal estimates. Actual prepayment experience is periodically reviewed and effective yields are recalculated when differences arise between the prepayments originally anticipated and the actual prepayments received and currently anticipated. For RMBS, CMBS and ABS of high credit quality with fixed interest rates, the effective yield is recalculated on a retrospective basis. For all others, the effective yield is recalculated on a prospective basis. Accrual of income is suspended for other-than-temporarily impaired fixed income securities when the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be received is not reasonably estimable. Accrual of income is suspended for mortgage loans that are in default or when full and timely collection of principal and interest payments is not probable. Cash receipts on investments on nonaccrual status are generally recorded as a reduction of carrying value. Income from cost method limited partnership interests is recognized upon receipt of amounts distributed by the partnerships. Income from EMA limited partnership interests is recognized based on the Company’s share of the partnerships’ net income, including unrealized gains and losses, and is generally recognized on a three month delay due to the availability of the related financial statements.

Realized capital gains and losses include gains and losses on investment sales, write-downs in value due to other-than-temporary declines in fair value, adjustments to valuation allowances on mortgage loans, and periodic changes in fair value and settlements of certain derivatives including hedge ineffectiveness. Realized capital gains and losses on investment sales are determined on a specific identification basis.

 

Derivative and embedded derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments include options, interest rate caps, foreign currency forwards and a reinvestment related risk transfer reinsurance agreement with ALIC that meets the accounting definition of a derivative (see Note 4). Derivatives required to be separated from the host instrument and accounted for as derivative financial instruments (“subject to bifurcation”) are embedded in certain fixed income securities, equity-indexed life contracts and reinsured variable annuity contracts.

All derivatives are accounted for on a fair value basis and reported as other investments, other assets, other liabilities and accrued expenses or contractholder funds. The income statement effects of derivatives, including fair value gains and losses and accrued periodic settlements, are reported in realized capital gains and losses or in a single line item together with the results of the associated liability for which risks are being managed. Embedded derivative instruments subject to bifurcation are also accounted for on a fair value basis and are reported together with the host contract. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in certain fixed income securities and subject to bifurcation is reported in realized capital gains and losses. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in life and annuity product contracts and subject to bifurcation is reported in contract benefits or interest credited to contractholder funds. Cash flows from embedded derivatives subject to bifurcation are reported consistently with the host contracts within the Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from other derivatives are reported in cash flows from investing activities within the Statements of Cash Flows.

Securities loaned

The Company’s business activities include securities lending transactions, which are used primarily to generate net investment income. The proceeds received in conjunction with securities lending transactions are reinvested in short-term investments. These transactions are short-term in nature, usually 30 days or less.

The Company receives cash collateral for securities loaned in an amount generally equal to 102% of the fair value of securities and records the related obligations to return the collateral in other liabilities and accrued expenses. The carrying value of these obligations approximates fair value because of their relatively short-term nature. The Company monitors the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and obtains additional collateral as necessary under the terms of the agreements to mitigate counterparty credit risk. The Company maintains the right and ability to repossess the securities loaned on short notice.

Recognition of premium revenues and contract charges, and related benefits and interest credited

Traditional life insurance products consist principally of products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits, primarily term and whole life insurance products. Voluntary accident and health insurance products are expected to remain in force for an extended period and therefore are primarily classified as long-duration contracts. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when due from policyholders. Benefits are reflected in contract benefits and recognized in relation to premiums, so that profits are recognized over the life of the policy.

Immediate annuities with life contingencies, including certain structured settlement annuities, provide insurance protection over a period that extends beyond the period during which premiums are collected. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when received at the inception of the contract. Benefits and expenses are recognized in relation to premiums. Profits from these policies come from investment income, which is recognized over the life of the contract.

Interest-sensitive life contracts, such as universal life and single premium life, are insurance contracts whose terms are not fixed and guaranteed. The terms that may be changed include premiums paid by the contractholder, interest credited to the contractholder account balance and contract charges assessed against the contractholder account balance. Premiums from these contracts are reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for the cost of insurance (mortality risk), contract administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. These contract charges are recognized as revenue when assessed against the contractholder account balance. Contract benefits include life-contingent benefit payments in excess of the contractholder account balance.

Contracts that do not subject the Company to significant risk arising from mortality or morbidity are referred to as investment contracts. Fixed annuities, including market value adjusted annuities and immediate annuities without life contingencies, are considered investment contracts. Consideration received for such contracts is reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges for investment contracts consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for maintenance, administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates, and are recognized when assessed against the contractholder account balance.

 

Interest credited to contractholder funds represents interest accrued or paid on interest-sensitive life and investment contracts. Crediting rates for certain fixed annuities and interest-sensitive life contracts are adjusted periodically by the Company to reflect current market conditions subject to contractually guaranteed minimum rates. Crediting rates for indexed life contracts are generally based on an equity index, such as the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index. Interest credited also includes amortization of DSI expenses. DSI is amortized into interest credited using the same method used to amortize DAC.

Contract charges for variable life and variable annuity products consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balances for contract maintenance, administration, mortality, expense and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. Contract benefits incurred for variable annuity products include guaranteed minimum death, income, withdrawal and accumulation benefits. All of the Company’s variable annuity business is ceded through reinsurance agreements and the contract charges and contract benefits related thereto are reported net of reinsurance ceded.

Deferred policy acquisition and sales inducement costs

Costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal life insurance and investment contracts are deferred and recorded as DAC. These costs are principally agents’ and brokers’ remuneration and certain underwriting expenses. DSI costs, which are deferred and recorded as other assets, relate to sales inducements offered on sales to new customers, principally on fixed annuity and interest-sensitive life contracts. These sales inducements are primarily in the form of additional credits to the customer’s account balance or enhancements to interest credited for a specified period which are in excess of the rates currently being credited to similar contracts without sales inducements. All other acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and included in operating costs and expenses. Amortization of DAC is included in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and is described in more detail below. DSI is amortized into income using the same methodology and assumptions as DAC and is included in interest credited to contractholder funds.

For traditional life insurance, DAC is amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the estimated revenues on such business. Assumptions used in the amortization of DAC and reserve calculations are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not revised during the life of the policy. Any deviations from projected business in force resulting from actual policy terminations differing from expected levels and any estimated premium deficiencies may result in a change to the rate of amortization in the period such events occur. Generally, the amortization periods for these policies approximates the estimated lives of the policies. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. The Company aggregates all traditional life insurance products and immediate annuities with life contingencies in the analysis. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required.

For interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities, DAC and DSI are amortized in proportion to the incidence of the total present value of gross profits, which includes both actual historical gross profits (“AGP”) and estimated future gross profits (“EGP”) expected to be earned over the estimated lives of the contracts. The amortization is net of interest on the prior period DAC balance using rates established at the inception of the contracts. Actual amortization periods generally range from 15-30 years; however, incorporating estimates of the rate of customer surrenders, partial withdrawals and deaths generally results in the majority of the DAC being amortized during the surrender charge period, which is typically 10-20 years for interest-sensitive life and 5-10 years for fixed annuities. The cumulative DAC and DSI amortization is reestimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income when there is a difference between the incidence of actual versus expected gross profits in a reporting period or when there is a change in total EGP. When DAC or DSI amortization or a component of gross profits for a quarterly period is potentially negative (which would result in an increase of the DAC or DSI balance) as a result of negative AGP, the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the potential negative amortization are considered to determine whether it is appropriate for recognition in the financial statements. Negative amortization is only recorded when the increased DAC or DSI balance is determined to be recoverable based on facts and circumstances. Recapitalization of DAC and DSI is limited to the originally deferred costs plus interest.

AGP and EGP primarily consist of the following components: contract charges for the cost of insurance less mortality costs and other benefits; investment income and realized capital gains and losses less interest credited; and surrender and other contract charges less maintenance expenses. The principal assumptions for determining the amount of EGP are persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses on assets supporting contract liabilities, interest crediting rates to contractholders, and the effects of any hedges. For products whose supporting investments are exposed to capital losses in excess of the Company’s expectations which may cause periodic AGP to become temporarily negative, EGP and AGP utilized in DAC and DSI amortization may be modified to exclude the excess capital losses.

The Company performs quarterly reviews of DAC and DSI recoverability for interest-sensitive life and fixed annuity contracts in the aggregate using current assumptions. If a change in the amount of EGP is significant, it could result in the unamortized DAC or DSI not being recoverable, resulting in a charge which is included as a component of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.

The DAC and DSI balances presented include adjustments to reflect the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized capital gains or losses in the respective product investment portfolios were actually realized. The adjustments are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income. DAC, DSI and deferred income taxes determined on unrealized capital gains and losses and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income recognize the impact on shareholder’s equity consistently with the amounts that would be recognized in the income statement on realized capital gains and losses.

Customers of the Company may exchange one insurance policy or investment contract for another offered by the Company, or make modifications to an existing investment or life contract issued by the Company. These transactions are identified as internal replacements for accounting purposes. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in replacement contracts that are substantially unchanged from the replaced contracts are accounted for as continuations of the replaced contracts. Unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts continue to be deferred and amortized in connection with the replacement contracts. For interest-sensitive life and investment contracts, the EGP of the replacement contracts are treated as a revision to the EGP of the replaced contracts in the determination of amortization of DAC and DSI. For traditional life insurance policies, any changes to unamortized DAC that result from replacement contracts are treated as prospective revisions. Any costs associated with the issuance of replacement contracts are characterized as maintenance costs and expensed as incurred. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in a substantial change to the replaced contracts are accounted for as an extinguishment of the replaced contracts, and any unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts are eliminated with a corresponding charge to amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.

Reinsurance

In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to limit aggregate and single exposure to losses on large risks by purchasing reinsurance. The Company has also used reinsurance to effect the disposition of certain blocks of business. The amounts reported as reinsurance recoverables include amounts billed to reinsurers on losses paid as well as estimates of amounts expected to be recovered from reinsurers on insurance liabilities and contractholder funds that have not yet been paid. Reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses are estimated based upon assumptions consistent with those used in establishing the liabilities related to the underlying reinsured contracts. Insurance liabilities are reported gross of reinsurance recoverables. Reinsurance premiums are generally reflected in income in a manner consistent with the recognition of premiums on the reinsured contracts. Reinsurance does not extinguish the Company’s primary liability under the policies written. Therefore, the Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and establishes allowances for uncollectible reinsurance as appropriate.

The Company has a reinsurance treaty with ALIC through which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities. The terms of the treaty meet the accounting definition of a derivative. Accordingly, the treaty is recorded in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the treaty and premiums paid to ALIC are recognized in realized capital gains and losses.

Income taxes

The income tax provision is calculated under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates. The principal assets and liabilities giving rise to such differences are unrealized capital gains and losses, differences in tax bases of invested assets, insurance reserves and DAC. A deferred tax asset valuation allowance is established when there is uncertainty that such assets will be realized.

 

Reserve for life-contingent contract benefits

The reserve for life-contingent contract benefits payable under insurance policies, including traditional life insurance, life-contingent immediate annuities and voluntary accident and health insurance products, is computed on the basis of long-term actuarial assumptions of future investment yields, mortality, morbidity, policy terminations and expenses. These assumptions, which for traditional life insurance are applied using the net level premium method, include provisions for adverse deviation and generally vary by characteristics such as type of coverage, year of issue and policy duration. The assumptions are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not changed during the life of the policy. The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of reserves for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required. To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities would result in a premium deficiency if those gains were realized, the related increase in reserves for certain immediate annuities with life contingencies is recorded net of tax as a reduction of unrealized net capital gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Contractholder funds

Contractholder funds represent interest-bearing liabilities arising from the sale of products such as interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities. Contractholder funds primarily comprise cumulative deposits received and interest credited to the contractholder less cumulative contract benefits, surrenders, withdrawals and contract charges for mortality or administrative expenses. Contractholder funds also include reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance and certain fixed annuity contracts and reserves for certain guarantees on reinsured variable annuity contracts.

Separate accounts

Separate accounts assets are carried at fair value. The assets of the separate accounts are legally segregated and available only to settle separate account contract obligations. Separate accounts liabilities represent the contractholders’ claims to the related assets and are carried at an amount equal to the separate accounts assets. 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 and Comprehensive Income. Deposits to and surrenders and withdrawals from the separate accounts are reflected in separate accounts liabilities and are not included in cash flows.

Absent any contract provision wherein the Company provides a guarantee, variable annuity and variable life insurance contractholders bear the investment risk that the separate accounts’ funds may not meet their stated investment objectives. All of the Company’s variable annuity business was reinsured beginning in 2006.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments

Commitments to invest, commitments to extend mortgage loans and financial guarantees have off-balance sheet risk because their contractual amounts are not recorded in the Company’s Statements of Financial Position (see Note 7 and Note 11).

Pending accounting standards

Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance affecting the consolidation evaluation for limited partnerships and similar entities, fees paid to a decision maker or service provider, and variable interests in a variable interest entity held by related parties of the reporting enterprise. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of adoption which is not expected to be material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring equity investments, including equity securities and limited partnership interests, that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting or result in consolidation to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values may be measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. When a qualitative assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values indicates that impairment exists, the carrying value is required to be adjusted to fair value, if lower. The guidance clarifies that an entity should evaluate the realizability of a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale fixed income securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. The guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained income as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance related to equity investments without readily determinable fair values is to be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption. The most significant impact is expected to be the change in accounting for equity securities and cost method limited partnership interests.

4. Related Party Transactions

Business operations

The Company uses services performed by its affiliates, AIC, ALIC and Allstate Investments LLC, and business facilities owned or leased and operated by AIC in conducting its business activities. In addition, the Company shares the services of employees with AIC. The Company reimburses its affiliates for the operating expenses incurred on behalf of the Company. The Company is charged for the cost of these operating expenses based on the level of services provided. Operating expenses, including compensation, retirement and other benefit programs (see Note 14), allocated to the Company were $39.0 million, $44.1 million and $54.2 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. A portion of these expenses relate to the acquisition of business, which are deferred and amortized into income as described in Note 2.

Structured settlement annuities

The Company issued $0.9 million of structured settlement annuities, a type of immediate annuity, in 2013 at prices determined using interest rates in effect at the time of purchase, to fund structured settlements in matters involving AIC. The Company had no amounts related to structured settlement annuities with life contingencies that were included in premium revenue for 2013. Effective March 22, 2013, the Company no longer offers structured settlement annuities.

In most cases, these annuities were issued under a “qualified assignment” whereby Allstate Assignment Company and prior to July 1, 2001 Allstate Settlement Corporation (“ASC”), both wholly owned subsidiaries of ALIC, purchased annuities from the Company and assumed AIC’s obligation to make future payments.

AIC issued surety bonds to guarantee the payment of structured settlement benefits assumed by ASC (from both AIC and non-related parties) and funded by certain annuity contracts issued by the Company through June 30, 2001. ASC entered into a General Indemnity Agreement pursuant to which it indemnified AIC for any liabilities associated with the surety bonds and gave AIC certain collateral security rights with respect to the annuities and certain other rights in the event of any defaults covered by the surety bonds. ALIC guaranteed the payment of structured settlement benefits on all contracts issued on or after July 1, 2001. Reserves recorded by the Company for annuities that are guaranteed by the surety bonds of AIC were $1.41 billion as of both December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Reserves recorded by the Company for annuities that are guaranteed by ALIC were $624.5 million and $642.4 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Broker-Dealer agreements

The Company receives distribution services from Allstate Financial Services, LLC, an affiliated broker-dealer company, for certain annuity and variable life insurance contracts sold by Allstate exclusive agencies. For these services, the Company incurred commission and other distribution expenses of $233 thousand, $166 thousand and $246 thousand in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company has a service agreement with Allstate Distributors, LLC (“ADLLC”), a broker-dealer company owned by ALIC, whereby ADLLC promotes and markets products sold by the Company. In return for these services, the Company recorded expense of $23 thousand, $7 thousand and $14 thousand in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Reinsurance

The Company has reinsurance agreements with ALIC whereby a portion of the Company’s premiums and policy benefits are ceded to ALIC (see Note 9).

The Company has a reinsurance treaty through which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities to ALIC. Under the terms of the treaty, the Company pays a premium to ALIC that varies with the aggregate structured settlement annuity statutory reserve balance. In return, ALIC guarantees that the yield on the portion of the Company’s investment portfolio that supports structured settlement annuity liabilities will not fall below contractually determined rates. The Company ceded premium related to structured settlement annuities to ALIC of $3.4 million, $3.4 million and $3.5 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying value of the structured settlement reinsurance treaty was $82.8 million and $84.6 million, respectively, which is recorded in other assets. The premiums ceded and changes in the fair value of the reinsurance treaty are reflected as a component of realized capital gains and losses as the treaty is recorded as a derivative instrument.

Income taxes

The Company is a party to a federal income tax allocation agreement with the Corporation (see Note 12).

Intercompany loan agreement

The Company has an intercompany loan agreement with the Corporation. The amount of intercompany loans available to the Company is at the discretion of the Corporation. The maximum amount of loans the Corporation will have outstanding to all its eligible subsidiaries at any given point in time is limited to $1 billion. The Corporation may use commercial paper borrowings, bank lines of credit and securities lending to fund intercompany borrowings. The Company had no amounts outstanding under the intercompany loan agreement as of December 31, 2015 or 2014.

The Company uses its best estimate of future cash flows expected to be collected from the fixed income security, discounted at the security’s original or current effective rate, as appropriate, to calculate a recovery value and determine whether a credit loss exists. The determination of cash flow estimates is inherently subjective and methodologies may vary depending on facts and circumstances specific to the security. All reasonably available information relevant to the collectability of the security, including past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable assumptions and forecasts, are considered when developing the estimate of cash flows expected to be collected. That information generally includes, but is not limited to, the remaining payment terms of the security, prepayment speeds, foreign exchange rates, the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer, expected defaults, expected recoveries, the value of underlying collateral, vintage, geographic concentration of underlying collateral, available reserves or escrows, current subordination levels, third party guarantees and other credit enhancements. Other information, such as industry analyst reports and forecasts, sector credit ratings, financial condition of the bond insurer for insured fixed income securities, and other market data relevant to the realizability of contractual cash flows, may also be considered. The estimated fair value of collateral will be used to estimate recovery value if the Company determines that the security is dependent on the liquidation of collateral for ultimate settlement. If the estimated recovery value is less than the amortized cost of the security, a credit loss exists and an other-than-temporary impairment for the difference between the estimated recovery value and amortized cost is recorded in earnings. The portion of the unrealized loss related to factors other than credit remains classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. If the Company determines that the fixed income security does not have sufficient cash flow or other information to estimate a recovery value for the security, the Company may conclude that the entire decline in fair value is deemed to be credit related and the loss is recorded in earnings.

(1)  Unrealized net capital gains and losses for limited partnership interests represent the Company’s share of EMA limited partnerships’ other comprehensive income. Fair value and gross unrealized gains and losses are not applicable.
(2)  The insurance reserves adjustment represents the amount by which the reserve balance would increase if the net unrealized gains in the applicable product portfolios were realized and reinvested at current lower interest rates, resulting in a premium deficiency. Although the Company evaluates premium deficiencies on the combined performance of life insurance and immediate annuities with life contingencies, the adjustment primarily relates to structured settlement annuities with life contingencies, in addition to certain payout annuities with life contingencies.
(3)  The DAC and DSI adjustment balance represents the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized gains or losses in the respective product portfolios were realized.

Portfolio monitoring

The Company has a comprehensive portfolio monitoring process to identify and evaluate each fixed income and equity security whose carrying value may be other-than-temporarily impaired.

For each fixed income security in an unrealized loss position, the Company assesses whether management with the appropriate authority has made the decision to sell or whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of the amortized cost basis for reasons such as liquidity, contractual or regulatory purposes. If a security meets either of these criteria, the security’s decline in fair value is considered other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.

If the Company has not made the decision to sell the fixed income security and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the fixed income security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company evaluates whether it expects to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. The Company calculates the estimated recovery value by discounting the best estimate of future cash flows at the security’s original or current effective rate, as appropriate, and compares this to the amortized cost of the security. If the Company does not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the fixed income security, the credit loss component of the impairment is recorded in earnings, with the remaining amount of the unrealized loss related to other factors recognized in other comprehensive income.

For equity securities, the Company considers various factors, including whether it has the intent and ability to hold the equity security for a period of time sufficient to recover its cost basis. Where the Company lacks the intent and ability to hold to recovery, or believes the recovery period is extended, the equity security’s decline in fair value is considered other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.

For fixed income and equity securities managed by third parties, either the Company has contractually retained its decision making authority as it pertains to selling securities that are in an unrealized loss position or it recognizes any unrealized loss at the end of the period through a charge to earnings.

The Company’s portfolio monitoring process includes a quarterly review of all securities to identify instances where the fair value of a security compared to its amortized cost (for fixed income securities) or cost (for equity securities) is below established thresholds. The process also includes the monitoring of other impairment indicators such as ratings, ratings downgrades and payment defaults. The securities identified, in addition to other securities for which the Company may have a concern, are evaluated for potential other-than-temporary impairment using all reasonably available information relevant to the collectability or recovery of the security. Inherent in the Company’s evaluation of other-than-temporary impairment for these fixed income and equity securities are assumptions and estimates about the financial condition and future earnings potential of the issue or issuer. Some of the factors that may be considered in evaluating whether a decline in fair value is other than temporary are: 1) the financial condition, near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer, including relevant industry specific market conditions and trends, geographic location and implications of rating agency actions and offering prices; 2) the specific reasons that a security is in an unrealized loss position, including overall market conditions which could affect liquidity; and 3) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost or cost.

 

The following table summarizes the gross unrealized losses and fair value of fixed income and equity securities by the length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position.

As of December 31, 2015, $52.6 million of the $80.0 million unrealized losses are related to securities with an unrealized loss position less than 20% of amortized cost or cost, the degree of which suggests that these securities do not pose a high risk of being other-than-temporarily impaired. Of the $52.6 million, $30.3 million are related to unrealized losses on investment grade fixed income securities and $8.4 million are related to equity securities. Of the remaining $27.4 million, $20.3 million have been in an unrealized loss position for less than 12 months. Investment grade is defined as a security having a rating of Aaa, Aa, A or Baa from Moody’s, a rating of AAA, AA, A or BBB from S&P, Fitch, Dominion, Kroll or Realpoint, a rating of aaa, aa, a or bbb from A.M. Best, or a comparable internal rating if an externally provided rating is not available. Market prices for certain securities may have credit spreads which imply higher or lower credit quality than the current third party rating. Unrealized losses on investment grade securities are principally related to increasing risk-free interest rates or widening credit spreads since the time of initial purchase.

As of December 31, 2015, the remaining $27.4 million of unrealized losses are related to securities in unrealized loss positions greater than or equal to 20% of amortized cost or cost. Investment grade fixed income securities comprising $9.5 million of these unrealized losses were evaluated based on factors such as discounted cash flows and the financial condition and near-term and long-term prospects of the issue or issuer and were determined to have adequate resources to fulfill contractual obligations. Of the $27.4 million, $11.0 million are related to below investment grade fixed income securities and $6.9 million are related to equity securities. Of these amounts, $7.1 million are related to below investment grade fixed income securities that had been in an unrealized loss position greater than or equal to 20% of amortized cost for a period of twelve or more consecutive months as of December 31, 2015.

 

RMBS, CMBS and ABS in an unrealized loss position were evaluated based on actual and projected collateral losses relative to the securities’ positions in the respective securitization trusts, security specific expectations of cash flows, and credit ratings. This evaluation also takes into consideration credit enhancement, measured in terms of (i) subordination from other classes of securities in the trust that are contractually obligated to absorb losses before the class of security the Company owns, (ii) the expected impact of other structural features embedded in the securitization trust beneficial to the class of securities the Company owns, such as overcollateralization and excess spread, and (iii) for RMBS and ABS in an unrealized loss position, credit enhancements from reliable bond insurers, where applicable. Municipal bonds in an unrealized loss position were evaluated based on the underlying credit quality of the primary obligor, obligation type and quality of the underlying assets. Unrealized losses on equity securities are primarily related to temporary equity market fluctuations of securities that are expected to recover.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company has not made the decision to sell and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell fixed income securities with unrealized losses before recovery of the amortized cost basis. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had the intent and ability to hold equity securities with unrealized losses for a period of time sufficient for them to recover.

Limited partnerships

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying value of equity method limited partnerships totaled $216.6 million and $160.4 million, respectively. The Company recognizes an impairment loss for equity method limited partnerships when evidence demonstrates that the loss is other than temporary. Evidence of a loss in value that is other than temporary may include the absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or the inability of the investee to sustain a level of earnings that would justify the carrying amount of the investment.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the carrying value for cost method limited partnerships was $64.5 million and $52.5 million, respectively. To determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, the Company evaluates whether an impairment indicator has occurred in the period that may have a significant adverse effect on the carrying value of the investment. Impairment indicators may include: significantly reduced valuations of the investments held by the limited partnerships; actual recent cash flows received being significantly less than expected cash flows; reduced valuations based on financing completed at a lower value; completed sale of a material underlying investment at a price significantly lower than expected; or any other adverse events since the last financial statements received that might affect the fair value of the investee’s capital. Additionally, the Company’s portfolio monitoring process includes a quarterly review of all cost method limited partnerships to identify instances where the net asset value is below established thresholds for certain periods of time, as well as investments that are performing below expectations, for further impairment consideration. If a cost method limited partnership is other-than-temporarily impaired, the carrying value is written down to fair value, generally estimated to be equivalent to the reported net asset value.

Mortgage loans

The Company’s mortgage loans are commercial mortgage loans collateralized by a variety of commercial real estate property types located across the United States and totaled, net of valuation allowance, $614.2 million and $493.8 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Substantially all of the commercial mortgage loans are non-recourse to the borrower.

The following table shows the principal geographic distribution of commercial real estate represented in the Company’s mortgage loan portfolio. No other state represented more than 5% of the portfolio as of December 31.

Mortgage loans are evaluated for impairment on a specific loan basis through a quarterly credit monitoring process and review of key credit quality indicators. Mortgage loans are considered impaired when it is probable that the Company will not collect the contractual principal and interest. Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans to reduce the carrying value to the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell or the present value of the loan’s expected future repayment cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate. Impaired mortgage loans may not have a valuation allowance when the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell is higher than the carrying value. Valuation allowances are adjusted for subsequent changes in the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell or present value of the loan’s expected future repayment cash flows. Mortgage loans are charged off against their corresponding valuation allowances when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The impairment evaluation is non-statistical in respect to the aggregate portfolio but considers facts and circumstances attributable to each loan. It is not considered probable that additional impairment losses, beyond those identified on a specific loan basis, have been incurred as of December 31, 2015.

Accrual of income is suspended for mortgage loans that are in default or when full and timely collection of principal and interest payments is not probable. Cash receipts on mortgage loans on nonaccrual status are generally recorded as a reduction of carrying value.

Debt service coverage ratio is considered a key credit quality indicator when mortgage loans are evaluated for impairment. Debt service coverage ratio represents the amount of estimated cash flows from the property available to the borrower to meet principal and interest payment obligations. Debt service coverage ratio estimates are updated annually or more frequently if conditions are warranted based on the Company’s credit monitoring process.

The following table reflects the carrying value of non-impaired fixed rate mortgage loans summarized by debt service coverage ratio distribution as of December 31. There were no variable rate mortgage loans as of December 31, 2015 or 2014.

Mortgage loans with a debt service coverage ratio below 1.0 that are not considered impaired primarily relate to instances where the borrower has the financial capacity to fund the revenue shortfalls from the properties for the foreseeable term, the decrease in cash flows from the properties is considered temporary, or there are other risk mitigating circumstances such as additional collateral, escrow balances or borrower guarantees.

There were no impaired mortgage loans as of December 31, 2015 or 2014. The average balance of impaired loans was $2.4 million and $7.6 million during 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

6. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is defined 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. The hierarchy for inputs used in determining fair value maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Assets and liabilities recorded on the Statements of Financial Position at fair value are categorized in the fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

 

Level 1: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company can access.

 

Level 2: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:

 

  (a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

 

  (b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or

 

  (c) Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

Level 3: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the assets and liabilities.

The availability of observable inputs varies by instrument. In situations where fair value is based on internally developed pricing models or inputs that are unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. The degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is typically greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. In many instances, valuation inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The category level in the fair value hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruption, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments.

The Company is responsible for the determination of fair value and the supporting assumptions and methodologies. The Company gains assurance that assets and liabilities are appropriately valued through the execution of various processes and controls designed to ensure the overall reasonableness and consistent application of valuation methodologies, including inputs and assumptions, and compliance with accounting standards. For fair values received from third parties or internally estimated, the Company’s processes and controls are designed to ensure that the valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistently applied, the inputs and assumptions are reasonable and consistent with the objective of determining fair value, and the fair values are accurately recorded. For example, on a continuing basis, the Company assesses the reasonableness of individual fair values that have stale security prices or that exceed certain thresholds as compared to previous fair values received from valuation service providers or brokers or derived from internal models. The Company performs procedures to understand and assess the methodologies, processes and controls of valuation service providers. In addition, the Company may validate the reasonableness of fair values by comparing information obtained from valuation service providers or brokers to other third party valuation sources for selected securities. The Company performs ongoing price validation procedures such as back-testing of actual sales, which corroborate the various inputs used in internal models to market observable data. When fair value determinations are expected to be more variable, the Company validates them through reviews by members of management who have relevant expertise and who are independent of those charged with executing investment transactions.

The Company has two types of situations where investments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The first is where specific inputs significant to the fair value estimation models are not market observable. This primarily occurs in the Company’s use of broker quotes to value certain securities where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable, and the use of valuation models that use significant non-market observable inputs.

 

The second situation where the Company classifies securities in Level 3 is where quotes continue to be received from independent third-party valuation service providers and all significant inputs are market observable; however, there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset when compared to normal market activity such that the degree of market observability has declined to a point where categorization as a Level 3 measurement is considered appropriate. The indicators considered in determining whether a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for a specific asset has occurred include the level of new issuances in the primary market, trading volume in the secondary market, the level of credit spreads over historical levels, applicable bid-ask spreads, and price consensus among market participants and other pricing sources.

Certain assets are not carried at fair value on a recurring basis, including investments such as mortgage loans, limited partnership interests and policy loans. Accordingly, such investments are only included in the fair value hierarchy disclosure when the investment is subject to remeasurement at fair value after initial recognition and the resulting remeasurement is reflected in the financial statements. In addition, derivatives embedded in fixed income securities are not disclosed in the hierarchy as free-standing derivatives since they are presented with the host contracts in fixed income securities.

In determining fair value, the Company principally uses the market approach which generally utilizes market transaction data for the same or similar instruments. To a lesser extent, the Company uses the income approach which involves determining fair values from discounted cash flow methodologies. For the majority of Level 2 and Level 3 valuations, a combination of the market and income approaches is used.

Summary of significant valuation techniques for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Level 1 measurements

 

    Fixed income securities: Comprise certain U.S. Treasury fixed income securities. Valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access.

 

    Equity securities: Comprise actively traded, exchange-listed equity securities. Valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access.

 

    Short-term: Comprise U.S Treasury bills valued on unadjusted quoted process for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access and actively traded money market funds that have daily quoted net asset values for identical assets that the Company can access.

 

    Separate account assets: Comprise actively traded mutual funds that have daily quoted net asset values for identical assets that the Company can access. Net asset values for the actively traded mutual funds in which the separate account assets are invested are obtained daily from the fund managers.

Level 2 measurements

 

    Fixed income securities:

U.S. government and agencies: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

Municipal: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

Corporate - public: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

Corporate - privately placed: Valued using a discounted cash flow model that is widely accepted in the financial services industry and uses market observable inputs and inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. The primary inputs to the discounted cash flow model include an interest rate yield curve, as well as published credit spreads for similar assets in markets that are not active that incorporate the credit quality and industry sector of the issuer.

Foreign government: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads.

 

RMBS: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, prepayment speeds, collateral performance and credit spreads.

CMBS: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, collateral performance and credit spreads.

ABS - consumer and other: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, prepayment speeds, collateral performance and credit spreads. Certain ABS - consumer and other are valued based on non-binding broker quotes whose inputs have been corroborated to be market observable.

Redeemable preferred stock: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields, underlying stock prices and credit spreads.

 

    Equity securities: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices or quoted net asset values for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active.

 

    Short-term: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads. For certain short-term investments, amortized cost is used as the best estimate of fair value.

 

    Other investments: Free-standing exchange listed derivatives that are not actively traded are valued based on quoted prices for identical instruments in markets that are not active.

Over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives, including foreign exchange forward contracts and options, are valued using models that rely on inputs such as currency rates that are observable for substantially the full term of the contract. The valuation techniques underlying the models are widely accepted in the financial services industry and do not involve significant judgment.

Level 3 measurements

 

    Fixed income securities:

Municipal: Comprise municipal bonds that are not rated by third party credit rating agencies but are rated by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”). The primary inputs to the valuation of these municipal bonds include quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that exhibit less liquidity relative to those markets supporting Level 2 fair value measurements, contractual cash flows, benchmark yields and credit spreads. Also included are municipal bonds valued based on non-binding broker quotes where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable and municipal bonds in default valued based on the present value of expected cash flows. Also includes auction rate securities (“ARS”) primarily backed by student loans that have become illiquid due to failures in the auction market and are valued using a discounted cash flow model that is widely accepted in the financial services industry and uses significant non-market observable inputs, including the anticipated date liquidity will return to the market.

Corporate - public and Corporate - privately placed: Primarily valued based on non-binding broker quotes where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable.

ABS - collateralized debt obligations (“CDO”) and ABS - consumer and other: Valued based on non-binding broker quotes received from brokers who are familiar with the investments and where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable.

 

    Equity securities: The primary inputs to the valuation include quoted prices or quoted net asset values for identical or similar assets in markets that exhibit less liquidity relative to those markets supporting Level 2 fair value measurements.

 

    Other investments: Certain OTC derivatives, such as interest rate caps, are valued using models that are widely accepted in the financial services industry. These are categorized as Level 3 as a result of the significance of non-market observable inputs such as volatility. Other primary inputs include interest rate yield curves.

 

    Other assets: Includes a structured settlement annuity reinsurance agreement accounted for as a derivative instrument that is valued internally. The model primarily uses stochastically determined cash flows, ultimate reinvestment spreads and applicable market data, such as interest rate and volatility assumptions. This item is categorized as Level 3 as a result of the significance of non-market observable inputs.
    Contractholder funds: Derivatives embedded in certain life and annuity contracts are valued internally using models widely accepted in the financial services industry that determine a single best estimate of fair value for the embedded derivatives within a block of contractholder liabilities. The models primarily use stochastically determined cash flows based on the contractual elements of embedded derivatives, projected option cost and applicable market data, such as interest rate yield curves and equity index volatility assumptions. These are categorized as Level 3 as a result of the significance of non-market observable inputs.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

Mortgage loans written-down to fair value in connection with recognizing impairments are valued based on the fair value of the underlying collateral less costs to sell. Limited partnership interests written-down to fair value in connection with recognizing other-than-temporary impairments are generally valued using net asset values.

   Ultimate reinvestment spreads    130.9 - 198.4 basis points    155.6 basis points

 

If the ultimate reinvestment spreads increased (decreased), it would result in a lower (higher) fair value.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, Level 3 fair value measurements of fixed income securities total $279.6 million and $320.3 million, respectively, and include $258.7 million and $290.9 million, respectively, of fixed income securities valued based on non-binding broker quotes where the inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable. The Company does not develop the unobservable inputs used in measuring fair value; therefore, these are not included in the table above. However, an increase (decrease) in credit spreads for fixed income securities valued based on non-binding broker quotes would result in a lower (higher) fair value.

(1)  The effect to net income totals $8.8 million and is reported in the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as follows: $(6.6) million in realized capital gains and losses, $6.7 million in net investment income, $(297) thousand in interest credited to contractholder funds and $9.0 million in contract benefits.

Transfers between level categorizations may occur due to changes in the availability of market observable inputs, which generally are caused by changes in market conditions such as liquidity, trading volume or bid-ask spreads. Transfers between level categorizations may also occur due to changes in the valuation source. For example, in situations where a fair value quote is not provided by the Company’s independent third-party valuation service provider and as a result the price is stale or has been replaced with a broker quote whose inputs have not been corroborated to be market observable, the security is transferred into Level 3. Transfers in and out of level categorizations are reported as having occurred at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurred. Therefore, for all transfers into Level 3, all realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses in the quarter of transfer are reflected in the Level 3 rollforward table.

There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2015, 2014 or 2013.

Transfers into Level 3 during 2015, 2014 and 2013 included situations where a fair value quote was not provided by the Company’s independent third-party valuation service provider and as a result the price was stale or had been replaced with a broker quote where the inputs had not been corroborated to be market observable resulting in the security being classified as Level 3. Transfers out of Level 3 during 2015, 2014 and 2013 included situations where a broker quote was used in the prior period and a fair value quote became available from the Company’s independent third-party valuation service provider in the current period.

Deferred annuities classified in contractholder funds are valued based on discounted cash flow models that incorporate current market-based margins and reflect the Company’s own credit risk. Immediate annuities without life contingencies are valued based on discounted cash flow models that incorporate current market-based implied interest rates and reflect the Company’s own credit risk. The fair value measurement for contractholder funds on investment contracts is categorized as Level 3.

The liability for collateral is valued at carrying value due to its short-term nature. The fair value measurement for liability for collateral is categorized as Level 2.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Off-balance sheet Financial Instruments

7. Derivative Financial Instruments and Off-balance sheet Financial Instruments

The Company uses derivatives for risk reduction focused on managing the risks with certain assets and liabilities arising from the potential adverse impacts from changes in risk-free interest rates, changes in equity market valuations and foreign currency fluctuations.

Asset-liability management is a risk management strategy that is principally employed to balance the respective interest-rate sensitivities of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Depending upon the attributes of the assets acquired and liabilities issued, derivative instruments such as interest rate caps are utilized to change the interest rate characteristics of existing assets and liabilities to ensure the relationship is maintained within specified ranges and to reduce exposure to rising or falling interest rates. Options are used for hedging the equity exposure contained in the Company’s equity indexed life product contracts that offer equity returns to contractholders. Foreign currency forwards are primarily used by the Company to reduce the foreign currency risk associated with holding foreign currency denominated investments. The Company also has a reinsurance treaty that is recorded as a derivative instrument, under which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities to ALIC.

The Company also has derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts that are required to be separated from the host contracts and accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value of embedded derivatives reported in net income. The Company’s primary embedded derivatives are guaranteed minimum accumulation and withdrawal benefits in reinsured variable annuity contracts; equity options in life product contracts, which provide equity returns to contractholders; and conversion options in fixed income securities, which provide the Company with the right to convert the instrument into a predetermined number of shares of common stock.

The notional amounts specified in the contracts are used to calculate the exchange of contractual payments under the agreements and are generally not representative of the potential for gain or loss on these agreements. Fair value, which is equal to the carrying value, is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the derivative contracts at the reporting date. The carrying value amounts for OTC derivatives are further adjusted for the effects, if any, of enforceable master netting agreements and are presented on a net basis, by counterparty agreement, in the Statements of Financial Position. For certain exchange traded derivatives, margin deposits are required as well as daily cash settlements of margin accounts. As of December 31, 2015, the Company pledged $60 thousand of cash in the form of margin deposits.

Non-hedge accounting is generally used for “portfolio” level hedging strategies where the terms of the individual hedged items do not meet the strict homogeneity requirements to permit the application of hedge accounting. For non-hedge derivatives, net income includes changes in fair value and accrued periodic settlements, when applicable. With the exception of non-hedge embedded derivatives, all of the Company’s derivatives are evaluated for their ongoing effectiveness as either accounting hedge or non-hedge derivative financial instruments on at least a quarterly basis.

 

The following table provides a summary of the volume and fair value positions of derivative instruments as well as their reporting location in the Statement of Financial Position as of December 31, 2015. None of these derivatives are designated as accounting hedging instruments.

The Company manages its exposure to credit risk by utilizing highly rated counterparties, establishing risk control limits, executing legally enforceable master netting agreements (“MNAs”) and obtaining collateral where appropriate. The Company uses MNAs for OTC derivative transactions that permit either party to net payments due for transactions and collateral is either pledged or obtained when certain predetermined exposure limits are exceeded. As of December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any collateral pledged to or from counterparties. The Company has not incurred any losses on derivative financial instruments due to counterparty nonperformance. Other derivatives, including option contracts, are traded on organized exchanges which require margin deposits and guarantee the execution of trades, thereby mitigating any potential credit risk.

Counterparty credit exposure represents the Company’s potential loss if all of the counterparties concurrently fail to perform under the contractual terms of the contracts and all collateral, if any, becomes worthless. This exposure is measured by the fair value of OTC derivative contracts with a positive fair value at the reporting date reduced by the effect, if any, of legally enforceable master netting agreements.

The following table summarizes the counterparty credit exposure as of December 31 by counterparty credit rating as it relates to the Company’s OTC derivatives.

(1)  Rating is the lower of S&P or Moody’s ratings.
(2)  Only OTC derivatives with a net positive fair value are included for each counterparty.

Market risk is the risk that the Company will incur losses due to adverse changes in market rates and prices. Market risk exists for all of the derivative financial instruments the Company currently holds, as these instruments may become less valuable due to adverse changes in market conditions. To limit this risk, the Company’s senior management has established risk control limits. In addition, changes in fair value of the derivative financial instruments that the Company uses for risk management purposes are generally offset by the change in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged risk component of the related assets, liabilities or forecasted transactions.

Certain of the Company’s derivative instruments contain credit-risk-contingent termination events, cross-default provisions and credit support annex agreements. Credit-risk-contingent termination events allow the counterparties to terminate the derivative agreement or a specific trade on certain dates if the Company’s financial strength credit ratings by Moody’s or S&P fall below a certain level. Credit-risk-contingent cross-default provisions allow the counterparties to terminate the derivative agreement if the Company defaults by pre-determined threshold amounts on certain debt instruments. Credit-risk-contingent credit support annex agreements specify the amount of collateral the Company must post to counterparties based on the Company’s financial strength credit ratings by Moody’s or S&P, or in the event the Company is no longer rated by either Moody’s or S&P. The Company had no derivative instruments with termination, cross-default or collateral credit-risk-contingent features that were in a liability position as of December 31, 2015 or 2014.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments

The contractual amounts of off-balance-sheet financial instruments relating to commitments to invest in limited partnership interests totaled $193.1 million and $190.7 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The contractual amounts of off-balance-sheet financial instruments relating to commitments to extend mortgage loans totaled $9.0 million as of December 31, 2014. The contractual amounts represent the amount at risk if the contract is fully drawn upon, the counterparty defaults and the value of any underlying security becomes worthless. Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support off-balance sheet financial instruments with credit risk.

Commitments to invest in limited partnership interests represent agreements to acquire new or additional participation in certain limited partnership investments. The Company enters into these agreements in the normal course of business. Because the investments in limited partnerships are not actively traded, it is not practical to estimate the fair value of these commitments.

Commitments to extend mortgage loans are agreements to lend to a borrower provided there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. The Company enters into these agreements to commit to future loan fundings at a predetermined interest rate. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses.

Other immediate fixed annuities   1983 individual annuity mortality table; Annuity 2000 mortality table with internal modifications; Annuity 2000 mortality table   Interest rate assumptions range from 0% to 11.5%   Present value of expected future benefits based on historical experience
Traditional life insurance   Actual company experience plus loading   Interest rate assumptions range from 3.0% to 8.0%   Net level premium reserve method using the Company’s withdrawal experience rates; includes reserves for unpaid claims
Accident and health insurance   Actual company experience plus loading   Interest rate assumptions range from 3.5% to 6.0%   Unearned premium; additional contract reserves for mortality risk and unpaid claims

Other:

Variable annuity guaranteed minimum death benefits (1)

  Annuity 2012 mortality table with internal modifications   Interest rate assumptions range from 2.1% to 5.8%   Projected benefit ratio applied to cumulative assessments

 

(1)  In 2006, the Company disposed of its variable annuity business through a reinsurance agreement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America, a subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (collectively “Prudential”).

To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities would result in a premium deficiency had those gains actually been realized, a premium deficiency reserve is recorded for certain immediate annuities with life contingencies. A liability of $44.4 million and $257.3 million is included in the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits with respect to this deficiency as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The offset to this liability is recorded as a reduction of the unrealized net capital gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income.

The Company offered various guarantees to variable annuity contractholders. Liabilities for variable contract guarantees related to death benefits are included in the reserve for life-contingent contract benefits and the liabilities related to the income, withdrawal and accumulation benefits are included in contractholder funds. All liabilities for variable contract guarantees are reported on a gross basis on the balance sheet with a corresponding reinsurance recoverable asset.

Absent any contract provision wherein the Company guarantees either a minimum return or account value upon death, a specified contract anniversary date, partial withdrawal or annuitization, variable annuity and variable life insurance contractholders bear the investment risk that the separate accounts’ funds may not meet their stated investment objectives. The account balances of variable annuities contracts’ separate accounts with guarantees included $264.5 million and $322.1 million of equity, fixed income and balanced mutual funds and $36.8 million and $50.6 million of money market mutual funds as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The table below presents information regarding the Company’s variable annuity contracts with guarantees. The Company’s variable annuity contracts may offer more than one type of guarantee in each contract; therefore, the sum of amounts listed exceeds the total account balances of variable annuity contracts’ separate accounts with guarantees.

(3)  Defined as the estimated current guaranteed minimum withdrawal balance (initial deposit) in excess of the current account balance as of the balance sheet date.
(4)  Defined as the estimated present value of the guaranteed minimum accumulation balance in excess of the current account balance.

The liability for death and income benefit guarantees is equal to a benefit ratio multiplied by the cumulative contract charges earned, plus accrued interest less contract excess guarantee benefit payments. The benefit ratio is calculated as the estimated present value of all expected contract excess guarantee benefits divided by the present value of all expected contract charges. The establishment of reserves for these guarantees requires the projection of future fund values, mortality, persistency and customer benefit utilization rates. These assumptions are periodically reviewed and updated. For guarantees related to death benefits, benefits represent the projected excess guaranteed minimum death benefit payments. For guarantees related to income benefits, benefits represent the present value of the minimum guaranteed annuitization benefits in excess of the projected account balance at the time of annuitization.

Projected benefits and contract charges used in determining the liability for certain guarantees are developed using models and stochastic scenarios that are also used in the development of estimated expected gross profits. Underlying assumptions for the liability related to income benefits include assumed future annuitization elections based on factors such as the extent of benefit to the potential annuitant, eligibility conditions and the annuitant’s attained age. The liability for guarantees is re-evaluated periodically, and adjustments are made to the liability balance through a charge or credit to contract benefits.

Guarantees related to withdrawal and accumulation benefits are considered to be derivative financial instruments; therefore, the liability for these benefits is established based on its fair value.

Reinsurance

9. Reinsurance

The Company reinsures certain of its risks to unaffiliated reinsurers and ALIC under yearly renewable term, coinsurance and modified coinsurance agreements. These agreements result in a passing of the agreed-upon percentage of risk to the reinsurer in exchange for negotiated reinsurance premium payments. Modified coinsurance is similar to coinsurance, except that the cash and investments that support the liability for contract benefits are not transferred to the assuming company and settlements are made on a net basis between the companies.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, for certain term life insurance policies, the Company ceded up to 90% of the mortality risk depending on the year of policy issuance. Further, the Company cedes the mortality risk associated with coverage in excess of
$2 million per life to ALIC. Prior to July 1, 2013, the Company ceded mortality risk in excess of $250 thousand per life to ALIC.

 

In addition, the Company has used reinsurance to effect the disposition of certain blocks of business. The Company had reinsurance recoverables of $185.4 million and $189.9 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, due from Prudential related to the disposal of its variable annuity business that was effected through reinsurance agreements. In 2015, premiums and contract charges of $7.1 million, contract benefits of $1.4 million, interest credited to contractholder funds of $4.5 million, and operating costs and expenses of $1.1 million were ceded to Prudential. In 2014, premiums and contract charges of $8.2 million, contract benefits of $1.4 million, interest credited to contractholder funds of $5.2 million, and operating costs and expenses of $1.3 million were ceded to Prudential. In 2013, premiums and contract charges of $9.0 million, contract benefits of $11.0 million, interest credited to contractholder funds of $5.5 million, and operating costs and expenses of $1.5 million were ceded to Prudential. In addition, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company had reinsurance recoverables of $114 thousand and $22 thousand, respectively, due from a subsidiary of Citigroup (Triton Insurance Company) in connection with the disposition of the direct response distribution business in 2003.

As of December 31, 2015, the gross life insurance in force was $40.61 billion of which $572.7 million and $9.01 billion was ceded to affiliated and unaffiliated reinsurers, respectively.

Guarantees and Contingent Liabilities

11. Guarantees and Contingent Liabilities

Guaranty funds

Under state insurance guaranty fund laws, insurers doing business in a state can be assessed, up to prescribed limits, for certain obligations of insolvent insurance companies to policyholders and claimants. Amounts assessed to each company are typically related to its proportion of business written in each state. The Company’s policy is to accrue assessments when the entity for which the insolvency relates has met its state of domicile’s statutory definition of insolvency and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. In most states, the definition is met with a declaration of financial insolvency by a court of competent jurisdiction. In certain states there must also be a final order of liquidation. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the liability balance included in other liabilities and accrued expenses was $750 thousand and $742 thousand, respectively. The related premium tax offsets included in other assets were $3.6 million as of both December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Guarantees

Related to the disposal through reinsurance of our variable annuity business to Prudential in 2006, the Company, ALIC and the Corporation have agreed to indemnify Prudential for certain pre-closing contingent liabilities (including extra-contractual liabilities of the Company and liabilities specifically excluded from the transaction) that the Company and ALIC have agreed to retain. In addition, the Company, ALIC and the Corporation will each indemnify Prudential for certain post-closing liabilities that may arise from the acts of the Company and ALIC and their agents, including certain liabilities arising from the Company’s and ALIC’s provision of transition services. The reinsurance agreements contain no limitations or indemnifications with regard to insurance risk transfer, and transferred all of the future risks and responsibilities for performance on the underlying variable annuity contracts to Prudential, including those related to benefit guarantees. Management does not believe this agreement will have a material effect on results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.

In the normal course of business, the Company provides standard indemnifications to contractual counterparties in connection with numerous transactions, including acquisitions and divestitures. The types of indemnifications typically provided include indemnifications for breaches of representations and warranties, taxes and certain other liabilities, such as third party lawsuits. The indemnification clauses are often standard contractual terms and are entered into in the normal course of business based on an assessment that the risk of loss would be remote. The terms of the indemnifications vary in duration and nature. In many cases, the maximum obligation is not explicitly stated and the contingencies triggering the obligation to indemnify have not occurred and are not expected to occur. Consequently, the maximum amount of the obligation under such indemnifications is not determinable. Historically, the Company has not made any material payments pursuant to these obligations.

The aggregate liability balance related to all guarantees was not material as of December 31, 2015.

Regulation and Compliance

The Company is subject to extensive laws, regulations and regulatory actions. From time to time, regulatory authorities or legislative bodies seek to impose additional regulations regarding agent and broker compensation, regulate the nature of and amount of investments, impose fines and penalties for unintended errors or mistakes, and otherwise expand overall regulation of insurance products and the insurance industry. In addition, the Company is subject to laws and regulations administered and enforced by federal agencies and other organizations, including but not limited to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and the U.S. Department of Justice. The Company has established procedures and policies to facilitate compliance with laws and regulations, to foster prudent business operations, and to support financial reporting. The Company routinely reviews its practices to validate compliance with laws and regulations and with internal procedures and policies. As a result of these reviews, from time to time the Company may decide to modify some of its procedures and policies. Such modifications, and the reviews that led to them, may be accompanied by payments being made and costs being incurred. The ultimate changes and eventual effects of these actions on the Company’s business, if any, are uncertain.

Income Taxes

12. Income Taxes

The Company joins with the Corporation and its other subsidiaries (the “Allstate Group”) in the filing of a consolidated federal income tax return and is party to a federal income tax allocation agreement (the “Allstate Tax Sharing Agreement”). Under the Allstate Tax Sharing Agreement, the Company pays to or receives from the Corporation the amount, if any, by which the Allstate Group’s federal income tax liability is affected by virtue of inclusion of the Company in the consolidated federal income tax return. Effectively, this results in the Company’s annual income tax provision being computed, with adjustments, as if the Company filed a separate return.

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) is currently examining the Allstate Group’s 2013 and 2014 federal income tax returns. The IRS completed the audit of the Allstate Group’s 2011 and 2012 federal income tax returns and issued a final Revenue Agent’s Report on June 10, 2015. The Allstate Group’s tax years prior to 2011 have been examined by the IRS and the statute of limitations has expired on those years. Any adjustments that may result from IRS examinations of the Allstate Group’s tax returns are not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.

The Company had no liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2015, 2014 or 2013, and believes it is reasonably possible that the liability balance will not significantly increase within the next twelve months. No amounts have been accrued for interest or penalties.

Prescribed statutory accounting practices include a variety of publications of the NAIC, as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed.

The State of New York requires insurance companies domiciled in its state to prepare statutory-basis financial statements in conformity with the NAIC Accounting Practices and Procedures Manual, subject to any deviations prescribed or permitted by the State of New York Insurance Superintendent. Statutory accounting practices differ from GAAP primarily since they require charging policy acquisition and certain sales inducement costs to expense as incurred, establishing life insurance reserves based on different actuarial assumptions, and valuing certain investments and establishing deferred taxes on a different basis.

Statutory net (loss) income was $(63.9) million, $31.3 million and $25.9 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus was $507.6 million and $562.1 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Dividend Limitations

The ability of the Company to pay dividends is dependent on business conditions, income, cash requirements and other relevant factors. The payment of shareholder dividends by the Company without the prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”) is limited to formula amounts based on capital and surplus and net gain from operations excluding realized capital gains and losses, determined in conformity with statutory accounting practices, as well as the timing and amount of dividends paid in the preceding twelve months. During 2016, the Company will not be able to pay dividends without prior NYDFS approval. Any dividend must be paid out of unassigned surplus excluding unrealized appreciation from investments, which totaled $341.6 million as of December 31, 2015, and cannot result in capital and surplus being less than the minimum amount required by law.

Under state insurance laws, insurance companies are required to maintain paid up capital of not less than the minimum capital requirement applicable to the types of insurance they are authorized to write. Insurance companies are also subject to risk-based capital (“RBC”) requirements adopted by state insurance regulators. A company’s “authorized control level RBC” is calculated using various factors applied to certain financial balances and activity. Companies that do not maintain adjusted statutory capital and surplus at a level in excess of the company action level RBC, which is two times authorized control level RBC, are required to take specified actions. Company action level RBC is significantly in excess of the minimum capital requirements. Total adjusted statutory capital and surplus and authorized control level RBC of the Company were $602.3 million and $71.7 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2015.

14. Benefit Plans

Pension and other postretirement plans

Defined benefit pension plans, sponsored by the Corporation, cover most full-time employees, certain part-time employees and employee-agents. Benefits under the pension plans are based upon the employee’s length of service and eligible annual compensation. The cost allocated to the Company for the pension plans was $804 thousand, $832 thousand and $5.3 million in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Corporation has reserved the right to modify or terminate its benefit plans at any time and for any reason.

 

Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan

Employees of AIC are eligible to become members of the Allstate 401(k) Savings Plan (“Allstate Plan”). The Corporation’s contributions are based on the Corporation’s matching obligation and certain performance measures. The cost allocated to the Company for the Allstate Plan was $811 thousand, $998 thousand and $773 thousand in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Investments

Investments

Fixed income securities include bonds, residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), asset-backed securities (“ABS”) and redeemable preferred stocks. Fixed income securities, which may be sold prior to their contractual maturity, are designated as available for sale and are carried at fair value. The difference between amortized cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes and related deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”), deferred sales inducement costs (“DSI”) and reserves for life-contingent contract benefits, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Cash received from calls and make-whole payments is reflected as a component of proceeds from sales and cash received from maturities and pay-downs is reflected as a component of investment collections within the Statements of Cash Flows.

Mortgage loans are carried at unpaid principal balances, net of unamortized premium or discount and valuation allowances. Valuation allowances are established for impaired loans when it is probable that contractual principal and interest will not be collected.

Equity securities primarily include common stocks, exchange traded funds, non-redeemable preferred stocks and real estate investment trust equity investments. Equity securities are designated as available for sale and are carried at fair value. The difference between cost and fair value, net of deferred income taxes, is reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Investments in limited partnership interests include interests in private equity funds and co-investments, real estate funds, and other funds. Where the Company’s interest is so minor that it exercises virtually no influence over operating and financial policies, investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the cost method of accounting; all other investments in limited partnership interests are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting (“EMA”).

Short-term investments, including money market funds, commercial paper and other short-term investments, are carried at fair value. Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances. Other investments consist of derivatives. Derivatives are carried at fair value.

Investment income primarily consists of interest, dividends, income from limited partnership interests, and income from certain derivative transactions. Interest is recognized on an accrual basis using the effective yield method and dividends are recorded at the ex-dividend date. Interest income for RMBS, CMBS and ABS is determined considering estimated pay-downs, including prepayments, obtained from third party data sources and internal estimates. Actual prepayment experience is periodically reviewed and effective yields are recalculated when differences arise between the prepayments originally anticipated and the actual prepayments received and currently anticipated. For RMBS, CMBS and ABS of high credit quality with fixed interest rates, the effective yield is recalculated on a retrospective basis. For all others, the effective yield is recalculated on a prospective basis. Accrual of income is suspended for other-than-temporarily impaired fixed income securities when the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be received is not reasonably estimable. Accrual of income is suspended for mortgage loans that are in default or when full and timely collection of principal and interest payments is not probable. Cash receipts on investments on nonaccrual status are generally recorded as a reduction of carrying value. Income from cost method limited partnership interests is recognized upon receipt of amounts distributed by the partnerships. Income from EMA limited partnership interests is recognized based on the Company’s share of the partnerships’ net income, including unrealized gains and losses, and is generally recognized on a three month delay due to the availability of the related financial statements.

Realized capital gains and losses include gains and losses on investment sales, write-downs in value due to other-than-temporary declines in fair value, adjustments to valuation allowances on mortgage loans, and periodic changes in fair value and settlements of certain derivatives including hedge ineffectiveness. Realized capital gains and losses on investment sales are determined on a specific identification basis.

Derivative and embedded derivative financial instruments

Derivative and embedded derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments include options, interest rate caps, foreign currency forwards and a reinvestment related risk transfer reinsurance agreement with ALIC that meets the accounting definition of a derivative (see Note 4). Derivatives required to be separated from the host instrument and accounted for as derivative financial instruments (“subject to bifurcation”) are embedded in certain fixed income securities, equity-indexed life contracts and reinsured variable annuity contracts.

All derivatives are accounted for on a fair value basis and reported as other investments, other assets, other liabilities and accrued expenses or contractholder funds. The income statement effects of derivatives, including fair value gains and losses and accrued periodic settlements, are reported in realized capital gains and losses or in a single line item together with the results of the associated liability for which risks are being managed. Embedded derivative instruments subject to bifurcation are also accounted for on a fair value basis and are reported together with the host contract. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in certain fixed income securities and subject to bifurcation is reported in realized capital gains and losses. The change in fair value of derivatives embedded in life and annuity product contracts and subject to bifurcation is reported in contract benefits or interest credited to contractholder funds. Cash flows from embedded derivatives subject to bifurcation are reported consistently with the host contracts within the Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from other derivatives are reported in cash flows from investing activities within the Statements of Cash Flows.

Securities loaned

Securities loaned

The Company’s business activities include securities lending transactions, which are used primarily to generate net investment income. The proceeds received in conjunction with securities lending transactions are reinvested in short-term investments. These transactions are short-term in nature, usually 30 days or less.

The Company receives cash collateral for securities loaned in an amount generally equal to 102% of the fair value of securities and records the related obligations to return the collateral in other liabilities and accrued expenses. The carrying value of these obligations approximates fair value because of their relatively short-term nature. The Company monitors the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and obtains additional collateral as necessary under the terms of the agreements to mitigate counterparty credit risk. The Company maintains the right and ability to repossess the securities loaned on short notice.

Recognition of Premium Revenues and Contract Charges, and Related Benefits and Interest Credited

Recognition of premium revenues and contract charges, and related benefits and interest credited

Traditional life insurance products consist principally of products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits, primarily term and whole life insurance products. Voluntary accident and health insurance products are expected to remain in force for an extended period and therefore are primarily classified as long-duration contracts. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when due from policyholders. Benefits are reflected in contract benefits and recognized in relation to premiums, so that profits are recognized over the life of the policy.

Immediate annuities with life contingencies, including certain structured settlement annuities, provide insurance protection over a period that extends beyond the period during which premiums are collected. Premiums from these products are recognized as revenue when received at the inception of the contract. Benefits and expenses are recognized in relation to premiums. Profits from these policies come from investment income, which is recognized over the life of the contract.

Interest-sensitive life contracts, such as universal life and single premium life, are insurance contracts whose terms are not fixed and guaranteed. The terms that may be changed include premiums paid by the contractholder, interest credited to the contractholder account balance and contract charges assessed against the contractholder account balance. Premiums from these contracts are reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for the cost of insurance (mortality risk), contract administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. These contract charges are recognized as revenue when assessed against the contractholder account balance. Contract benefits include life-contingent benefit payments in excess of the contractholder account balance.

Contracts that do not subject the Company to significant risk arising from mortality or morbidity are referred to as investment contracts. Fixed annuities, including market value adjusted annuities and immediate annuities without life contingencies, are considered investment contracts. Consideration received for such contracts is reported as contractholder fund deposits. Contract charges for investment contracts consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balance for maintenance, administration and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates, and are recognized when assessed against the contractholder account balance.

 

Interest credited to contractholder funds represents interest accrued or paid on interest-sensitive life and investment contracts. Crediting rates for certain fixed annuities and interest-sensitive life contracts are adjusted periodically by the Company to reflect current market conditions subject to contractually guaranteed minimum rates. Crediting rates for indexed life contracts are generally based on an equity index, such as the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index. Interest credited also includes amortization of DSI expenses. DSI is amortized into interest credited using the same method used to amortize DAC.

Contract charges for variable life and variable annuity products consist of fees assessed against the contractholder account balances for contract maintenance, administration, mortality, expense and surrender of the contract prior to contractually specified dates. Contract benefits incurred for variable annuity products include guaranteed minimum death, income, withdrawal and accumulation benefits. All of the Company’s variable annuity business is ceded through reinsurance agreements and the contract charges and contract benefits related thereto are reported net of reinsurance ceded.

Deferred Policy Acquisition and Sales Inducement Costs

Deferred policy acquisition and sales inducement costs

Costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition of new or renewal life insurance and investment contracts are deferred and recorded as DAC. These costs are principally agents’ and brokers’ remuneration and certain underwriting expenses. DSI costs, which are deferred and recorded as other assets, relate to sales inducements offered on sales to new customers, principally on fixed annuity and interest-sensitive life contracts. These sales inducements are primarily in the form of additional credits to the customer’s account balance or enhancements to interest credited for a specified period which are in excess of the rates currently being credited to similar contracts without sales inducements. All other acquisition costs are expensed as incurred and included in operating costs and expenses. Amortization of DAC is included in amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and is described in more detail below. DSI is amortized into income using the same methodology and assumptions as DAC and is included in interest credited to contractholder funds.

For traditional life insurance, DAC is amortized over the premium paying period of the related policies in proportion to the estimated revenues on such business. Assumptions used in the amortization of DAC and reserve calculations are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not revised during the life of the policy. Any deviations from projected business in force resulting from actual policy terminations differing from expected levels and any estimated premium deficiencies may result in a change to the rate of amortization in the period such events occur. Generally, the amortization periods for these policies approximates the estimated lives of the policies. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of DAC for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. The Company aggregates all traditional life insurance products and immediate annuities with life contingencies in the analysis. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required.

For interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities, DAC and DSI are amortized in proportion to the incidence of the total present value of gross profits, which includes both actual historical gross profits (“AGP”) and estimated future gross profits (“EGP”) expected to be earned over the estimated lives of the contracts. The amortization is net of interest on the prior period DAC balance using rates established at the inception of the contracts. Actual amortization periods generally range from 15-30 years; however, incorporating estimates of the rate of customer surrenders, partial withdrawals and deaths generally results in the majority of the DAC being amortized during the surrender charge period, which is typically 10-20 years for interest-sensitive life and 5-10 years for fixed annuities. The cumulative DAC and DSI amortization is reestimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to income when there is a difference between the incidence of actual versus expected gross profits in a reporting period or when there is a change in total EGP. When DAC or DSI amortization or a component of gross profits for a quarterly period is potentially negative (which would result in an increase of the DAC or DSI balance) as a result of negative AGP, the specific facts and circumstances surrounding the potential negative amortization are considered to determine whether it is appropriate for recognition in the financial statements. Negative amortization is only recorded when the increased DAC or DSI balance is determined to be recoverable based on facts and circumstances. Recapitalization of DAC and DSI is limited to the originally deferred costs plus interest.

AGP and EGP primarily consist of the following components: contract charges for the cost of insurance less mortality costs and other benefits; investment income and realized capital gains and losses less interest credited; and surrender and other contract charges less maintenance expenses. The principal assumptions for determining the amount of EGP are persistency, mortality, expenses, investment returns, including capital gains and losses on assets supporting contract liabilities, interest crediting rates to contractholders, and the effects of any hedges. For products whose supporting investments are exposed to capital losses in excess of the Company’s expectations which may cause periodic AGP to become temporarily negative, EGP and AGP utilized in DAC and DSI amortization may be modified to exclude the excess capital losses.

The Company performs quarterly reviews of DAC and DSI recoverability for interest-sensitive life and fixed annuity contracts in the aggregate using current assumptions. If a change in the amount of EGP is significant, it could result in the unamortized DAC or DSI not being recoverable, resulting in a charge which is included as a component of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.

The DAC and DSI balances presented include adjustments to reflect the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized capital gains or losses in the respective product investment portfolios were actually realized. The adjustments are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income. DAC, DSI and deferred income taxes determined on unrealized capital gains and losses and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income recognize the impact on shareholder’s equity consistently with the amounts that would be recognized in the income statement on realized capital gains and losses.

Customers of the Company may exchange one insurance policy or investment contract for another offered by the Company, or make modifications to an existing investment or life contract issued by the Company. These transactions are identified as internal replacements for accounting purposes. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in replacement contracts that are substantially unchanged from the replaced contracts are accounted for as continuations of the replaced contracts. Unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts continue to be deferred and amortized in connection with the replacement contracts. For interest-sensitive life and investment contracts, the EGP of the replacement contracts are treated as a revision to the EGP of the replaced contracts in the determination of amortization of DAC and DSI. For traditional life insurance policies, any changes to unamortized DAC that result from replacement contracts are treated as prospective revisions. Any costs associated with the issuance of replacement contracts are characterized as maintenance costs and expensed as incurred. Internal replacement transactions determined to result in a substantial change to the replaced contracts are accounted for as an extinguishment of the replaced contracts, and any unamortized DAC and DSI related to the replaced contracts are eliminated with a corresponding charge to amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs or interest credited to contractholder funds, respectively.

Reinsurance

Reinsurance

In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to limit aggregate and single exposure to losses on large risks by purchasing reinsurance. The Company has also used reinsurance to effect the disposition of certain blocks of business. The amounts reported as reinsurance recoverables include amounts billed to reinsurers on losses paid as well as estimates of amounts expected to be recovered from reinsurers on insurance liabilities and contractholder funds that have not yet been paid. Reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses are estimated based upon assumptions consistent with those used in establishing the liabilities related to the underlying reinsured contracts. Insurance liabilities are reported gross of reinsurance recoverables. Reinsurance premiums are generally reflected in income in a manner consistent with the recognition of premiums on the reinsured contracts. Reinsurance does not extinguish the Company’s primary liability under the policies written. Therefore, the Company regularly evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and establishes allowances for uncollectible reinsurance as appropriate.

The Company has a reinsurance treaty with ALIC through which it primarily cedes reinvestment related risk on its structured settlement annuities. The terms of the treaty meet the accounting definition of a derivative. Accordingly, the treaty is recorded in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the treaty and premiums paid to ALIC are recognized in realized capital gains and losses.

Income taxes

Income taxes

The income tax provision is calculated under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates. The principal assets and liabilities giving rise to such differences are unrealized capital gains and losses, differences in tax bases of invested assets, insurance reserves and DAC. A deferred tax asset valuation allowance is established when there is uncertainty that such assets will be realized.

Reserve for life-contingent contract benefits

Reserve for life-contingent contract benefits

The reserve for life-contingent contract benefits payable under insurance policies, including traditional life insurance, life-contingent immediate annuities and voluntary accident and health insurance products, is computed on the basis of long-term actuarial assumptions of future investment yields, mortality, morbidity, policy terminations and expenses. These assumptions, which for traditional life insurance are applied using the net level premium method, include provisions for adverse deviation and generally vary by characteristics such as type of coverage, year of issue and policy duration. The assumptions are established at the time the policy is issued and are generally not changed during the life of the policy. The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of reserves for these policies on an aggregate basis using actual experience. If actual experience is significantly adverse compared to the original assumptions and a premium deficiency is determined to exist, any remaining unamortized DAC balance would be expensed to the extent not recoverable and the establishment of a premium deficiency reserve may be required. To the extent that unrealized gains on fixed income securities would result in a premium deficiency if those gains were realized, the related increase in reserves for certain immediate annuities with life contingencies is recorded net of tax as a reduction of unrealized net capital gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Contractholder funds

Contractholder funds

Contractholder funds represent interest-bearing liabilities arising from the sale of products such as interest-sensitive life insurance and fixed annuities. Contractholder funds primarily comprise cumulative deposits received and interest credited to the contractholder less cumulative contract benefits, surrenders, withdrawals and contract charges for mortality or administrative expenses. Contractholder funds also include reserves for secondary guarantees on interest-sensitive life insurance and certain fixed annuity contracts and reserves for certain guarantees on reinsured variable annuity contracts.

Separate accounts

Separate accounts

Separate accounts assets are carried at fair value. The assets of the separate accounts are legally segregated and available only to settle separate account contract obligations. Separate accounts liabilities represent the contractholders’ claims to the related assets and are carried at an amount equal to the separate accounts assets. 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 and Comprehensive Income. Deposits to and surrenders and withdrawals from the separate accounts are reflected in separate accounts liabilities and are not included in cash flows.

Absent any contract provision wherein the Company provides a guarantee, variable annuity and variable life insurance contractholders bear the investment risk that the separate accounts’ funds may not meet their stated investment objectives. All of the Company’s variable annuity business was reinsured beginning in 2006.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments

Off-balance sheet financial instruments

Commitments to invest, commitments to extend mortgage loans and financial guarantees have off-balance sheet risk because their contractual amounts are not recorded in the Company’s Statements of Financial Position (see Note 7 and Note 11).

Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis

Pending accounting standards

Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis

In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance affecting the consolidation evaluation for limited partnerships and similar entities, fees paid to a decision maker or service provider, and variable interests in a variable interest entity held by related parties of the reporting enterprise. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of adoption which is not expected to be material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring equity investments, including equity securities and limited partnership interests, that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting or result in consolidation to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values may be measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. When a qualitative assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values indicates that impairment exists, the carrying value is required to be adjusted to fair value, if lower. The guidance clarifies that an entity should evaluate the realizability of a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale fixed income securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. The guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained income as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance related to equity investments without readily determinable fair values is to be applied prospectively as of the date of adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption. The most significant impact is expected to be the change in accounting for equity securities and cost method limited partnership interests.

[1] Unrealized net capital gains and losses for limited partnership interests represent the Company's share of EMA limited partnerships' other comprehensive income. Fair value and gross unrealized gains and losses are not applicable.
[2] The insurance reserves adjustment represents the amount by which the reserve balance would increase if the net unrealized gains in the applicable product portfolios were realized and reinvested at current lower interest rates, resulting in a premium deficiency. Although the Company evaluates premium deficiencies on the combined performance of life insurance and immediate annuities with life contingencies, the adjustment primarily relates to structured settlement annuities with life contingencies, in addition to certain payout annuities with life contingencies.
[3] The DAC and DSI adjustment balance represents the amount by which the amortization of DAC and DSI would increase or decrease if the unrealized gains or losses in the respective product portfolios were realized.
