PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, ONCE YOU HAVE SELECTED AN OPTIONAL INCOME OR DEATH BENEFIT (EACH AN "OPTION"), YOUR ABILITY TO SELECT A DIFFERENT OPTION MAY BE LIMITED. PLEASE CONSULT WITH YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR CONCERNING ANY SUCH LIMITATIONS BEFORE SELECTING ANY OPTION. FURTHER, IF YOU SELECT ANOTHER OPTION, THE BENEFIT(S) UNDER THE NEW OPTION ON THE DATE WE ISSUE THE NEW OPTION WILL EQUAL THE CONTRACT VALUE. YOU WILL NOT RETAIN OR TRANSFER THE BENEFITS FROM THE EARLIER OPTION. PLEASE CONSULT WITH YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR CONCERNING THE EFFECT OF SELECTING A DIFFERENT OPTION BEFORE DOING SO. WE MAY DISCONTINUE THE OFFERING OF THESE OPTIONS AT ANYTIME. Please keep this supplement for future reference together with your prospectus.

Replace the paragraph following "Example 2" with the following: PLEASE REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT EXAMPLES AND NOT A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES. YOUR ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE LOWER OR GREATER THAN THOSE SHOWN ABOVE. SIMILARLY, YOUR RATE OF RETURN MAY BE LOWER OR GREATER THAN 5%, WHICH IS NOT GUARANTEED. THE ABOVE EXAMPLES ASSUME THE ELECTION OF THE INCOME AND DEATH BENEFIT COMBINATION OPTION 2, WITH A MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE OF 1.75%. IF THAT OPTION WERE NOT ELECTED, THE EXPENSE FIGURES SHOWN ABOVE WOULD BE SLIGHTLY LOWER. TO REFLECT THE CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE IN THE EXAMPLES, WE ESTIMATED AN EQUIVALENT PERCENTAGE CHARGE, BASED ON AN ASSUMED AVERAGE CONTRACT SIZE OF $45,000. 5 Page 15: Replace the third paragraph under the section entitled "Accumulation Unit Values" with the following: We determine a separate Accumulation Unit Value for each Variable Sub-Account on each Valuation Date. We also determine a separate set of Accumulation Unit Values that reflect the cost of the Enhanced Death Benefit Option, the Performance Death Benefit Option, or the Performance Income Benefit Option, a third set of Accumulation Unit Values for the Performance Benefit Combination Option or the Death Benefit Combination Option, a fourth set of Accumulation Unit Values for the Income Benefit Combination Option 2, and a fifth set of Accumulation Unit Values that reflect the cost of the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2. Page 21: Replace the first sentence under the section entitled "Mortality and Expense Risk Charge" with the following: We deduct a mortality and expense risk charge daily at an annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily net assets you have invested in the Variable Sub-Accounts (1.38% if you select the Enhanced Death Benefit Option, the Performance Death Benefit Option, or the Performance Income Benefit Option, 1.49% if you select the Death Benefit Combination Option or the Performance Benefit Combination Option, 1.55% if you select the Income Benefit Combination Option 2, and 1.75% if you select the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2). Replace the last sentence under the section entitled "Mortality and Expense Risk Charge" with the following: We charge an additional amount for the above Options to compensate us for the additional risk that we accept by providing these Options. Page 25: Reminder: The Performance Income Benefit cannot be added to existing Contracts after January 31, 2001. It is not available with new Contracts. Page 26: After the section entitled "Performance Income Benefit" add the following: INCOME BENEFIT COMBINATION OPTION 2 You have the option to add Income Benefit Combination Option 2 to your Contract. This Option guarantees that the amount you apply to an Income Plan will not be less than the income base ("Income Base") (which is the greater of Income Base A or Income Base B), described below. We may discontinue the offering of this Option at anytime. Eligibility. If you select the Income Benefit Combination Option 2, the maximum age of any owner or Annuitant on the date we issue the Contract Rider is 75. The Income Benefit Combination Option 2 may not be available in all states. To qualify for this benefit, you must meet the following conditions as of the Payout Start Date: You must elect a Payout Start Date that is on or after the 10th anniversary of the date we issued the rider for this Option (the "Rider Date"); The Payout Start Date must occur during the 30 day period following a Contract Anniversary; You must apply the Income Base to fixed income payments or variable income payments as we may permit from time to time. Currently, you may apply the Income Base only to provide fixed income payments; and The Income Plan you have selected must provide for payments guaranteed for either a single life or joint lives with a specified period of at least: 1. 10 years, if the youngest Annuitant's age is 80 or less on the date the amount is applied; or 2. 5 years, if the youngest Annuitant's age is greater than 80 on the date the amount is applied. If your current Contract Value is higher than the value calculated under Income Benefit Combination Option 2, you can apply the Contract Value to any Income Plan. The Income Benefit Combination Option 2 may not be available in all states. 6 INCOME BASE The Income Base is the greater of Income Base A or Income Base B. The Income Base is used solely for the purpose of calculating the guaranteed income benefit under this Option ("guaranteed income benefit") and does not provide a Contract Value or guarantee performance of any investment option. INCOME BASE A On the Rider Date, Income Base A is equal to the Contract Value. After the Rider Date, we recalculate Income Base A as follows on the Contract Anniversary and when a purchase payment or withdrawal is made. o For purchase payments, Income Base A is equal to the most recently calculated Income Base A plus the purchase payment. o For withdrawals, Income Base A is equal to the most recently calculated Income Base A reduced by a withdrawal adjustment (described below). o On each Contract Anniversary, Income Base A is equal to the greater of the Contract Value or the most recently calculated Income Base A. In the absence of any withdrawals or purchase payments, Income Base A will be the greatest of the Contract Value on the Rider Date and all Contract Anniversary Contract Values between the Rider Date and the Payout Start Date. We will recalculate Income Base A as described above until the first Contract Anniversary after the 85th birthday of the oldest Contract owner or Annuitant (if the Contract owner is not a natural person). After age 85, we will only recalculate Income Base A to reflect additional purchase payments and withdrawals. INCOME BASE B On the Rider Date, Income Base B is equal to the Contract Value. After the Rider Date, Income Base B plus any subsequent purchase payments and less a withdrawal adjustment (described below) for any subsequent withdrawals will accumulate daily at a rate equivalent to 5% per year until the first Contract Anniversary after the 85th birthday of the oldest Contract owner or Annuitant (if the Contract owner is not a natural person). WITHDRAWAL ADJUSTMENT. The withdrawal adjustment is equal to (1) divided by (2), with the result multiplied by (3) where: (1) = the withdrawal amount (2) = the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal, and (3) = the most recently calculated Income Base GUARANTEED INCOME BENEFIT. The guaranteed income benefit amount is determined by applying the Income Base less any applicable taxes to the guaranteed rates for the Income Plan you elect. The Income Plan you elect must satisfy the conditions described above. As described above, you may currently apply the Income Base only to receive period certain fixed income payments. If, however, you apply the Contract Value and not the Income Base to an Income Plan, then you may select fixed and/or variable income payments under any Income Plan we offer at that time. If you expect to apply your Contract Value to provide fixed and/or variable income payments, or you expect to apply your Contract Value to current annuity payment rates then in effect, electing the Income Benefit Combination Option 2 may not be appropriate. Page 26: Add "the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2" to the list of death benefit options in the first sentence under the heading "Death Benefit Options." 7 Page 26: Reminder: The Enhanced Death Benefit Option cannot be added to existing Contracts after January 31, 2001. It is not available with new Contracts. Page 27: Reminder: The Performance Benefit Combination Option cannot be added to existing Contracts after January 31, 2001. It is not available with new Contracts. Page 27: After the section entitled "Performance Benefit Combination Option" add the following: INCOME AND DEATH BENEFIT COMBINATION OPTION 2. You may also elect the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2, which combines the features of the Income Benefit Combination (described on page 6 of this supplement) with the features of the Death Benefit Combination (described on page 27 of the prospectus) with the following modifications. Under the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2, the death benefit payable will be the greater of the death benefits provided by the Enhanced Death Benefit or the Performance Death Benefit (both calculated until the first Contract Anniversary after the oldest Contract owner, or annuitant if the Contract owner is a non-natural person, attains age 85). In calculating the death benefit payable provided by the Enhanced Death Benefit, for all ages, withdrawals will reduce the Enhanced Death Benefit by an amount equal to: (i) the Enhanced Death Benefit immediately before the withdrawal, multiplied by (ii) the ratio of the withdrawal amount to the Contract Value just before the withdrawal. If you select the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2, the maximum age of any owner or Annuitant on the date we issue the Contract Rider is 75. The Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2 may not be available in all states. We may discontinue the offering of this Option at anytime. Page 28: Replace the third paragraph under the heading "Longevity Reward Rider" with the following: MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE If you elect the Rider, then commencing on the Rider Date, we will reduce the maximum mortality and expense risk charge (M&E charge) by 0.07%. That means your M&E charge will never be greater than 1.18% (1.31% if you select the Enhanced Death Benefit Option, the Performance Death Benefit Option, or the Performance Income Benefit Option, 1.42% if you select the Performance Benefit Combination Option, or the Death Benefit Combination Option, 1.48% if you select the Income Benefit Combination Option 2, and 1.68% if you select the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2). The 0.10% administrative expense charge remains unchanged under the Rider. 8 PART B NORTHBROOK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NORTHBROOK VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT II SUPPLEMENT, DATED OCTOBER 30, 2000, TO THE MORGAN STANLEY DEAN WITTER VARIABLE ANNUITY II STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DATED MAY 2, 2000 This supplement amends the statement of additional information, dated May 2, 2000, for the Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Variable Annuity II Contracts as follows: Add the following to the fifth paragraph under "Standardized Total Returns": Contracts with the Income Benefit Combination Option 2 and the Income and Death Benefit Combination Option 2 were first offered to the public as of November 6, 2000.
