The variable investment options shown on page 1 are those available as of the date of this prospectus. We may add, modify or delete variable investment options in the future. When you select one or more of these variable investment options, we invest your money in the corresponding investment option(s) of one or more of the following: the John Hancock Variable Series Trust I, the John Hancock Declaration Trust, the AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Fidelity's Variable Insurance Products Fund (Service Class) and Variable Insurance Products Fund II (Service Class), the MFS Variable Insurance Trust (Initial Class Shares), the Janus Aspen Series (Service Shares Class), and the M Fund, Inc. (together, "the Series Funds"). In this prospectus, the investment options of the Series Funds are referred to as "funds". In the prospectuses for the Series Funds, the investment options may be referred to as "funds", "portfolios" or "series". Each Series Fund is a so-called "series" type mutual fund registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The investment results of each variable investment option you select will depend on those of the corresponding fund of one of the Series Funds. Each of the funds is separately managed and has its own investment objective and strategies. Attached at the end of this prospectus are prospectuses for the Series Funds. The Series Fund prospectuses contain detailed information about each available fund. Be sure to read those prospectuses before selecting any of the variable investment options shown on page 1. * * * * * * * * * * * * Please note that the SEC has not approved or disapproved these securities, or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. * * * * * * * * * * * * JHVLICO Life Servicing Office ----------------------------- Express Delivery U.S. Mail ---------------- --------- 529 Main Street (X-4) P.O.

However, please keep in mind that this is a prospectus - - it is not the policy. The prospectus --- simplifies many policy provisions to better communicate the policy's essential features. Your rights and obligations under the policy will be determined by the language of the policy itself. When you receive your policy, read it carefully. This prospectus is arranged in the following way: . The section which follows is called "Basic Information". It is in a question and answer format. We suggest you read the Basic Information section before reading any other section of the prospectus. . Behind the Basic Information section are illustrations of hypothetical policy benefits that help clarify how the policy works. These start on page 22. . Behind the illustrations is a section called "Additional Information" that gives more details about the policy. It generally does not --- repeat information that is in the Basic Information section. A table of contents for the Additional Information section appears on page 27. . Behind the Additional Information section are the financial statements for JHVLICO and Separate Account S. These start on page 41. . Finally, there is an Alphabetical Index of Key Words and Phrases at the back of the prospectus on page 173. After the Alphabetical Index of Key Words and Phrases, this prospectus ends and the prospectuses for the Series Funds begin. * * * * * * * * * * * * 3 BASIC INFORMATION This part of the prospectus provides answers to commonly asked questions about the policy. Here are the page numbers where the questions and answers appear:

4 What is the Policy? The policy's primary purpose is to provide lifetime protection against economic loss due to the death of the insured person. The value of the amount you have invested under the policy may increase or decrease daily based upon the investment results of the variable investment options that you choose. The amount we pay to the policy's beneficiary if the insured person dies (we call this the "death benefit") may be similarly affected. While the insured person is alive, you will have a number of options under the policy. Here are some major ones: . Determine when and how much you invest in the various investment options . Borrow or withdraw amounts you have in the investment options . Change the beneficiary who will receive the death benefit . Change the amount of insurance . Turn in (i.e., "surrender") the policy for the full amount of its surrender value . Choose the form in which we will pay out the death benefit or other proceeds Most of these options are subject to limits that are explained later in this prospectus. Who owns the Policy? That's up to the person who applies for the policy. The owner of the policy is the person who can exercise most of the rights under the policy, such as the right to choose the investment options or the right to surrender the policy. In many cases, the person buying the policy is also the person who will be the owner. However, the application for a policy can name another person or entity (such as a trust) as owner. Whenever we've used the term "you" in this prospectus, we've assumed that the reader is the person who has whatever right or privilege is being discussed. There may be tax consequences if the owner and the insured person are different, so you should discuss this issue with your tax adviser. How can I invest money in the policy? Premium Payments We call the investments you make in the policy "premiums" or "premium payments". The amount we require as your first premium depends upon the ----- specifics of your policy and the insured person. Except as noted below, you can make any other premium payments you wish at any time. That's why the policy is called a "flexible premium" policy. Minimum premium payment Each premium payment must be at least $100. 5 Maximum premium payments Federal tax law limits the amount of premium payments you can make relative to the amount of your policy's insurance coverage. We will not knowingly accept any amount by which a premium payment exceeds the maximum. If you exceed certain other limits, the law may impose a penalty on amounts you take out of your policy. We'll monitor your premium payments and let you know if you're about to exceed this limit. More discussion of these tax law requirements begins on page 35. Also, we may refuse to accept any amount of an additional premium if: . that amount of premium would increase our insurance risk exposure, and . the insured person doesn't provide us with adequate evidence that he or she continues to meet our requirements for issuing insurance. In no event, however, will we refuse to accept any premium necessary to prevent the policy or the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature from terminating. We reserve the right to limit premium payments above the amount of cumulative Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Premiums (whether or not the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature described on page 7 is in effect). Ways to pay premiums If you pay premiums by check or money order, they must be drawn on a U.S. bank in U.S. dollars and made payable to "John Hancock Life." We will not accept credit card checks. We will not accept starter or third party checks if they fail to satisfy our administrative requirements. Premiums after the first must be sent to the JHVLICO Life Servicing Office at the appropriate address shown on page 2 of this prospectus. We will also accept premiums: . by wire or by exchange from another insurance company, or . if we agree to it, through a salary deduction plan with your employer. You can obtain information on these other methods of premium payment by contacting your JHVLICO representative or by contacting the JHVLICO Life Servicing Office. Is there a minimum amount I must invest? Planned Premiums The Policy Specifications page of your policy will show the "Planned Premium" for the policy. You choose this amount in the policy application. The premium reminder notice we send you is based on this amount. You will also choose how often to pay premiums-- annually, semi-annually, quarterly or monthly. The date on which such a payment is "due" is referred to in the policy as a "modal processing date." However, payment of Planned Premiums is not necessarily 6 required. You need only invest enough to keep the policy in force (see "Lapse and reinstatement" and "Guaranteed minimum death benefit feature" below). Lapse and reinstatement Either your entire policy or the Additional Sum Insured portion of your Total Sum Insured can terminate (i.e., "lapse") for failure to pay charges due under the policy. If the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature is in effect, only the Additional Sum Insured, if any, can lapse. If the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature is not in effect, the entire policy can lapse. In either case, --- if the policy's surrender value is not sufficient to pay the charges on a monthly deduction date, we will notify you of how much you will need to pay to keep any Additional Sum Insured or the policy in force. You will have a 61 day "grace period" to make that payment. If you don't pay at least the required amount by the end of the grace period, the Additional Sum Insured or your policy will lapse. If your policy lapses, all coverage under the policy will cease. Even if the policy or the Additional Sum Insured terminates in this way, you can still reactivate (i.e., "reinstate") it within 1 year from the beginning of the grace period. You will have to provide evidence that the insured person still meets our requirements for issuing coverage. You will also have to pay a minimum amount of premium and be subject to the other terms and conditions applicable to reinstatements, as specified in the policy. If the guaranteed minimum death benefit is not in effect and the insured person dies during the grace period, we will deduct any unpaid monthly charges from the death benefit. During such a grace period, you cannot make a partial withdrawal or policy loan. Guaranteed minimum death benefit feature This feature is available only if the insured person meets certain underwriting requirements and only if you've elected death benefit Option A (see "How much will JHVLICO pay when the last insured person dies?" on page 15) . The feature guarantees that your Basic Sum Insured will not lapse during the first 10 policy years, regardless of adverse investment performance, if both of the following are true: . any Additional Sum Insured under the policy is not scheduled to exceed the Basic Sum Insured at any time (see "How much will JHVLICO pay when the insured person dies?" on page 15), and . on each monthly deduction date during that 10 year period the amount of cumulative premiums you have paid accumulated at 4% (less all withdrawals from the policy accumulated at 4%) equals or exceeds the sum of all Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Premiums due to date accumulated at 4%. The Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Premium (or "GMDB Premium) is defined in the policy and is "due" on each monthly deduction date. The term "monthly deduction date" is defined on page 30. On the application for the policy, you may elect for this feature to extend beyond the tenth policy year. If you so elect, we will impose a special charge for this feature after the tenth policy year. You may revoke the election at any time. 7 No GMDB Premium will ever be greater than the so-called "guideline premium" for the policy as defined in Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code. Also, the GMDB Premiums may change in the event of any change in the Additional Sum Insured of the policy or any change in the death benefit option (see "How much will JHVLICO pay when the insured person dies?" on page 15). If the guaranteed minimum death benefit test is not satisfied on any monthly deduction date, we will notify you immediately and tell you how much you will need to pay to keep the feature in effect. You will have until the second monthly deduction date after default to make that payment. If you don't pay at least the required amount by the end of that period, the feature will lapse. The feature may be reinstated in accordance with the terms of the policy within 5 years after the policy anniversary on which default occurred. If it is reinstated more than 1 year after such policy anniversary, we will require evidence that the insured person still meets our requirements for issuing coverage. We may refuse to reinstate the feature more than once during the life of the policy. The guaranteed minimum death benefit feature applies only to the Basic Sum Insured. It does not apply to any amount of Additional Sum Insured (see "How --- much will JHVLICO pay when the insured person dies?" on page 15). If there are monthly charges that remain unpaid because of this feature, we will deduct such charges when there is sufficient surrender value to pay them. How will the value of my investment in the policy change over time? From each premium payment you make, we deduct the charges described under "Deductions from premium payments" below. We invest the rest in the investment options you've elected. Special investment rules apply to premiums processed prior to the 20th day after your policy becomes effective. (See "Commencement of investment performance" beginning on page 31.) Over time, the amount you've invested in any variable investment option will increase or decrease the same as if you had invested the same amount directly in the corresponding fund of a Series Fund and had reinvested all fund dividends and distributions in additional fund shares; except that we will deduct certain additional charges which will reduce your account value. We describe these charges under "What charges will JHVLICO deduct from my investment in the policy?" below. The amount you've invested in the fixed investment option will earn interest at a rate we declare from time to time. We guarantee that this rate will be at least 4%. If you want to know what the current declared rate is, just call or write to us. The current declared rate will also appear in the annual statement we will send you. Amounts you invest in the fixed investment option will not be --- subject to the asset-based risk charge described on page 9. Otherwise, the charges applicable to the fixed investment option are the same as those applicable to the variable investment options. At any time, the "account value" of your policy is equal to: 8 . the amount you invested, . plus or minus the investment experience of the investment options you've chosen, . minus all charges we deduct, and . minus all withdrawals you have made. If you take a loan on the policy, however, your account value will be computed somewhat differently. This is discussed beginning on page 32. What charges will JHVLICO deduct from my investment in the policy? Deductions from premium payments . Sales charge - A charge to help defray our sales costs. The current charge is ------------ of premiums received in each of the first 10 policy years up to the Target Premium, and 3.5% of premiums received in each policy year thereafter up to the Target Premium. We reserve the right to increase the percentages for policy years 1 through 10 and thereafter up to 10% and 7%, respectively. Because policies of this type were first offered in 2001, the lower current rates after the tenth policy year are not yet applicable to any policy. No charge is currently deducted from premiums received in excess of the Target Premium, but we reserve the right to impose such a charge of up to 3.5% of such excess premiums received in any policy year. The "Target Premium" is determined at the time the policy is issued and will appear in the "Policy Specifications" section of the policy. . Optional enhanced cash value rider charge - A charge imposed if you elect ----------------------------------------- this rider. The charge is 1% of premiums received in the first policy year. Deductions from account value . Asset-based risk charge - A monthly charge for mortality and expense risks we ----------------------- assume. The charge is a percentage of that portion of your account value allocated to variable investment options. The current percentages are .03% for policy years 1 - 20, and .0125% thereafter. These percentages equate to effective annual rates of .36% and .15%, respectively. The reduction after 20 years has not occurred yet under any policy, since no policy has yet been outstanding for 20 years. We guarantee that this charge will never exceed .05% of that portion of your account value allocated to variable investment options. This percentage equates to an effective annual rate of .60%. This charge does not apply to the fixed investment option. . Issue charge - A monthly charge to help defray our administrative costs. ------------ This is a charge per $1,000 of Basic Sum Insured at issue that varies by age and that is deducted only during the first ten policy years. The charge will appear in the "Policy Specifications" section of the policy. As an example, the monthly charge for a 45 year old is 7.65c per $1,000 of Basic Sum Insured. The maximum monthly charge is for an 85 year old and is 48.60c per $1,000 of Basic Sum Insured. 9 . Administrative charge - A monthly charge to help defray our administrative --------------------- costs. This charge has two parts: (1) a flat dollar charge of up to $5 (currently $2.50), and (2) a charge of up to 6c per $1,000 of Basic Sum Insured at issue (currently 3c per $1,000 of Basic Sum Insured at issue). The second part of this charge will not apply to amounts of Basic Sum Insured greater than $1,000,000. . Insurance charge - A monthly charge for the cost of insurance. To determine ---------------- the charge, we multiply the amount of insurance for which we are at risk by a cost of insurance rate. The rate is derived from an actuarial table. The table in your policy will show the maximum cost of insurance rates. The cost of ------- insurance rates that we currently apply are generally less than the maximum rates. We will review the cost of insurance rates at least every 5 years and may change them from time to time. However, those rates will never be more than the maximum rates shown in the policy. The table of rates we use will depend on the insurance risk characteristics and (usually) gender of the insured person, the Total Sum Insured and the length of time the policy has been in effect. Regardless of the table used, cost of insurance rates generally increase each year that you own your policy, as the insured person's attained age increases. (The insured person's "attained age" on any date is his or her age on the birthday nearest that date.) Higher current insurance rates are generally applicable to policies issued on a "guaranteed issue" basis, where only very limited underwriting information is obtained. This is often the case with policies issued to trustees, employers and similar entities. . Extra mortality charge - A monthly charge specified in your policy for ---------------------- additional mortality risk if the insured person is subject to certain types of special insurance risk. . Guaranteed minimum death benefit charge - A monthly charge beginning in the --------------------------------------- eleventh policy year if the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature is elected to extend beyond the first ten policy years. This charge is currently 1c per $1,000 of Basic Sum Insured and is guaranteed not to exceed 2c per $1,000 of Basic Sum Insured. Because policies of this type were first offered in 1994, this charge is not yet applicable to any policy at the current rate. . Optional benefits charge - Monthly charges for any optional insurance ------------------------ benefits added to the policy by means of a rider (other than the optional enhanced cash value rider). . Partial withdrawal charge - A charge for each partial withdrawal of account ------------------------- value to compensate us for the administrative expenses of processing the withdrawal. The charge is equal to the lesser of $20 or 2% of the withdrawal amount. What charges will the Series Funds deduct from my investment in the policy? The funds must pay investment management fees and other operating expenses. These fees and expenses are different for each fund and reduce the investment return of each fund. Therefore, they also indirectly reduce the return you will earn on any variable investment options you select. We may also receive payments from a fund or its affiliates at an annual rate of up to approximately 0.35% of the average net assets that holders of our variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts have invested in that fund. Any such payments do not, however, result in any charge to you in addition to what is disclosed below. 10 The following figures for the funds are based on historical fund expenses, as a percentage (rounded to two decimal places) of each fund's average daily net assets for 2000, except as indicated in the Notes appearing at the end of this table. Expenses of the funds are not fixed or specified under the terms of the policy, and those expenses may vary from year to year.

Notes to Fund Expense Table (1) Under its current investment management agreements with the John Hancock Variable Series Trust I, John Hancock Life Insurance Company reimburses a fund when the fund's "other fund expenses" exceed 0.10% of the fund's average daily net assets. Percentages shown for the Health Sciences Fund are estimates because the fund was not in operation in 2000. Percentages shown for the Growth & Income, Fundamental Growth, Small Cap Equity, Real Estate Equity, Managed, Global Balanced, Active Bond and Global Bond funds are calculated as if the current management fee schedules, which apply to these funds effective November 1, 2000, were in effect for all of 2000. Percentages shown for the Small Cap Value and Large Cap Value funds are calculated as if the current management fee schedules, which apply to these funds effective May 1, 2001, were in effect for all of 2000. "CORE(SM)" is a service mark of Goldman, Sachs & Co. * Fundamental Growth was formerly "Fundamental Mid Cap Growth," Small Cap Equity was formerly "Small Cap Value," and Small Cap Value was formerly "Small/Mid Cap Value." (2) Percentages shown for John Hancock Declaration Trust funds reflect the investment management fees currently payable and other fund expenses allocated in 2000. John Hancock Advisers, Inc. has agreed to limit temporarily other expenses of each fund to 0.25% of the fund's average daily assets, at least until April 30, 2002. (3) Actual annual class operating expenses were lower for each of the Fidelity VIP funds shown because a portion of the brokerage commissions that the fund paid was used to reduce the fund's expenses, and/or because through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of the fund's expenses. See the accomanying prospectus of the fund for details. (4) MFS Variable Insurance Trust funds have an expense offset arrangement which reduces each fund's custodian fee based upon the amount of cash maintained by the fund with its custodian and dividend disbursing agent. Each fund may enter into other such arrangements and directed brokerage arrangements, which would also have the effect of reducing the fund's expenses. "Other Operating Expenses" do not take into account these expense reductions, and are therefore higher than the actual expenses of the funds. Had these fee reductions been taken into account, total Fund Operating Expenses with Reimbursement would equal 0.90% for MFS Investors Growth Stock, 0.84% for MFS Research and 12 1.05% for MFS New Discovery. MFS Investment Management(R) (also doing business as Massachusetts Financial Services Company) has contractually agreed, subject to reimbursement, to bear expenses for the MFS Investors Growth Stock and New Discovery funds, such that the funds' "Other Expenses" (after taking into account the expense offset arrangement describe above) do not exceed 0.15% for Investors Growth Stock and 0.15% for New Discovery of the average daily net assets during the current fiscal year. * MFS Investors Growth Stock was formerly "MFS Growth." (5) Percentages shown for Janus Aspen funds are based upon expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, restated to reflect a reduction in the management fee for the Worldwide Growth fund. Expenses are shown without the effect of any expense offset arrangement. (6) Percentages shown for M Fund, Inc. funds reflect the investment management fees currently payable and other fund expenses allocated in 2000. M Financial Advisers, Inc. reimburses a fund when the fund's other operating expenses exceed 0.25% of that fund's average daily net assets. What other charges could JHVLICO impose in the future? We currently make no charge for our Federal income taxes. However, if we incur, or expect to incur, additional income taxes attributable to any subaccount of the Account or this class of policies in future years, we reserve the right to make a charge for such taxes. Any such charge would reduce what you earn on any affected investment options. However, we expect that no such charge will be necessary. Under current laws, we may incur state and local taxes (in addition to premium taxes) in several states. At present, these taxes are not significant. If there is a material change in applicable state or local tax laws, we may make charges for such taxes. How can I change my policy's investment allocations? Future premium payments At any time, you may change the investment options in which future premium payments will be invested. You make the original allocation in the application for the policy. The percentages you select must be in whole numbers and must total 100%. Transfers of existing account value You may also transfer your existing account value from one investment option to another. To do so, you must tell us how much to transfer, either as a whole number percentage or as a specific dollar amount. A confirmation of each transfer will be sent to you. Without our approval, the maximum amount you may transfer to or from any investment option in any policy year is $1,000,000. Under our current rules, you can make transfers out of any variable investment option anytime you wish. However, we reserve the right to: . impose limits on the frequency of transfers into and out of variable investment options, 13 . impose a limit of not less than 12 on the number of such transfers in any policy year, and . impose a charge of up to $25 on each such transfer in excess of a yearly limit of not less than 12. Transfers out of the fixed investment option are currently subject to the following restrictions: . You can only make such a transfer once a year and only during the 31 day period following your policy anniversary. . We must receive the request for such a transfer during the period beginning 60 days prior to the policy anniversary and ending 30 days after it. . The most you can transfer at any one time is the greater of $500 or 20% of the assets in your fixed investment option. We reserve the right to impose a minimum amount limit on transfers out of the fixed investment option. How can I access my investment in the policy? Full surrender You may surrender your policy in full at any time. If you do, we will pay you the account value less any policy loans plus, if surrender occurs in the first three policy years, a refund of 50% of sales charges deducted from any Target Premiums paid within 365 days prior to the date of surrender. This is called your "surrender value." You must return your policy when you request a full surrender. Partial withdrawals You may make a partial withdrawal of your surrender value at any time. Each partial withdrawal must be at least $1,000. There is a charge (usually $20) for each partial withdrawal. We will automatically reduce the account value of your policy by the amount of the withdrawal and the related charge. Each investment option will be reduced in the same proportion as the account value is then allocated among them. We will not permit a partial withdrawal if it would cause your account value to fall below 3 months' worth of monthly charges (see "Deductions from account value" on page 9). We also reserve the right to refuse any partial withdrawal that would cause the policy's Total Sum Insured to fall below $100,000. Any partial withdrawal (other than a Terminated ASI Withdrawal Amount, as described below) will reduce your death benefit under any of the death benefit options (see "How much will JHVLICO pay when the insured person dies?" on page 15) and under the guaranteed death benefit feature (see page 7). Under Option A, such a partial withdrawal will reduce the Total Sum Insured. Under Option B, such a partial withdrawal will reduce your account value. Under the guaranteed death benefit feature, such a partial withdrawal will reduce the Basic Sum Insured. A "Terminated ASI Withdrawal Amount" is any partial withdrawal made while there is an Additional Sum Insured under the policy that later lapses as described on page 7. The total of all Terminated ASI 14 Withdrawal Amounts cannot exceed the Additional Sum Insured in effect immediately before the Additional Sum Insured lapses. Policy loans You may borrow from your policy at any time by completing a form satisfactory to us or, if the telephone transaction authorization form has been completed, by telephone. However, you can't borrow from your policy during a "grace period" (see "Lapse and reinstatement" on page 7). The maximum amount you can borrow is determined as follows: . We first determine the account value of your policy. . We then subtract an amount equal to 12 times the monthly charges then being deducted from account value. . We then multiply the resulting amount by .75% in policy years 1 through 20 and .25% thereafter. . We then subtract the third item above from the second item above. The minimum amount of each loan is $1,000. The interest charged on any loan is an effective annual rate of 4.75% in the first 20 policy years and 4.25% thereafter. Accrued interest will be added to the loan daily and will bear interest at the same rate as the original loan amount. The amount of the loan is deducted from the investment options in the same proportion as the account value is then allocated among them and is placed in a special loan account. This special loan account will earn interest at an effective annual rate of 4.0%. However, if we determine that a loan will be treated as a taxable distribution because of the differential between the loan interest rate and the rate being credited on the special loan account, we reserve the right to decrease the rate credited on the special loan account to a rate that would, in our reasonable judgement, result in the transaction being treated as a loan under Federal tax law. You can repay all or part of a loan at any time. Each repayment will be allocated among the investment options as follows: . The same proportionate part of the loan as was borrowed from the fixed investment option will be repaid to the fixed investment option. . The remainder of the repayment will be allocated among the investment options in the same way a new premium payment would be allocated. If you want a payment to be used as a loan repayment, you must include instructions to that effect. Otherwise, all payments will be assumed to be premium payments. How much will JHVLICO pay when the insured person dies? In your application for the policy, you will tell us how much life insurance coverage you want on the life of the insured person. This is called the "Total Sum Insured." Total Sum Insured 15 is composed of the Basic Sum Insured and any Additional Sum Insured you elect. The only limitation on how much Additional Sum Insured you can have is that it generally cannot exceed 400% of the Basic Sum Insured. There are a number of factors you should consider in determining whether to elect coverage in the form of Basic Sum Insured or in the form of Additional Sum Insured. These factors are discussed under "Basic Sum Insured vs. Additional Sum Insured" on page 30. When the insured person dies, we will pay the death benefit minus any outstanding loans. There are ywo ways of calculating the death benefit. You choose which one you want in the application. The two death benefit options are: . Option A - The death benefit will equal the greater of (1) the Total Sum Insured, or (2) the minimum insurance amount (as described below). . Option B - The death benefit will equal the greater of (1) the Total Sum Insured plus your policy's account value on the date of death, or (2) the minimum insurance amount. For the same premium payments, the death benefit under Option B will tend to be higher than the death benefit under Option A. On the other hand, the monthly insurance charge will be higher under Option B to compensate us for the additional insurance risk. Because of that, the account value will tend to be higher under Option A than under Option B for the same premium payments. The minimum insurance amount In order for a policy to qualify as life insurance under Federal tax law, there has to be a minimum amount of insurance in relation to account value. There are two tests that can be applied under Federal tax law - - the "guideline premium and cash value corridor test" and the "cash value accumulation test." When you elect the death benefit option, you must also elect which test you wish to have applied. Under the guideline premium and cash value corridor test, we compute the minimum insurance amount each business day by multiplying the account value on that date (plus any refund of sales charges that might be due if the policy were surrendered on that date) by the "required additional death benefit factor" applicable on that date. In this case, the death benefit factors are derived by applying the guideline premium and cash value corridor test. The death benefit factor starts out at 2.50 for ages at or below 40 and decreases as attained age increases, reaching a low of 1.0 at age 95. Under the cash value accumulation test, we compute the minimum insurance amount each business day by multiplying the account value on that date (plus any refund of sales charges that might be due if the policy were surrendered on that date) by the death benefit factor applicable on that date. In this case, the death benefit factors are derived by applying the cash value accumulation test. The death benefit factor decreases as attained age increases. Regardless of which test you elect, a table showing the required additional death benefit factor for each policy year will appear in the policy. As noted above, you have to elect which test will be applied when you elect the death benefit option. The cash value accumulation test may be preferable if you want an increasing death benefit in later policy years and/or want to fund the policy at the "7 pay" limit for the full 7 years 16 (see "Tax Considerations" beginning on page 35). The guideline premium and cash value corridor test may be preferable if you want the account value under the policy to increase without increasing the death benefit as quickly as might otherwise be required. Enhanced cash value rider In the application for the policy, you may elect to purchase the enhanced cash value rider. This rider provides an enhanced cash value benefit (in addition to the surrender value) if you surrender the policy within the first seven policy years and such surrender is not made pursuant to an exchange under Section 1035 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor provision). The amount of the benefit will be shown in the "Policy Specifications" section of the policy. The benefit is also included in the account value when calculating the death benefit. Election of this rider could increase your insurance charge since it affects our amount at risk under the policy. The amount available for partial withdrawals and loans are based on the surrender value and will in no way be increased due to this rider. How can I change my policy's insurance coverage? Increase in coverage The Basic Sum Insured generally cannot be increased after policy issue. After the first policy year, you may request an increase in the Additional Sum Insured. However, you will have to provide us with evidence that the insured person still meets our requirements for issuing insurance coverage. As to when an approved increase would take effect, see "Effective date of other policy transactions" on page 32. Decrease in coverage The Basic Sum Insured generally cannot be decreased after policy issue. After the first policy year, you may request a reduction in the Additional Sum Insured, but only if: . the remaining Total Sum Insured will be at least $100,000, and . the remaining Total Sum Insured will at least equal the minimum required by the tax laws to maintain the policy's life insurance status. As to when an approved decrease would take effect, see "Effective date of other policy transactions" on page 32. Change of death benefit option At any time, you may request to change your coverage from death benefit Option B to Option A. Our administrative systems do not currently permit any other change of death benefit option. Such changes may be permitted in the future, but that is not guaranteed. 17 Tax consequences Please read "Tax considerations" starting on page 35 to learn about possible tax consequences of changing your insurance coverage under the policy. Can I cancel my policy after it's issued? You have the right to cancel your policy within the latest of the following periods: . 10 days after you receive it (this period may be longer in some states); . 10 days after mailing by JHVLICO of the Notice of Withdrawal Right; or . 45 days after the date Part A of the application has been completed. This is often referred to as the "free look" period. To cancel your policy, simply deliver or mail the policy to JHVLICO at one of the addresses shown on page 2, or to the JHVLICO representative who delivered the policy to you. In most states, you will receive a refund of any premiums you've paid. In some states, the refund will be your account value on the date of cancellation plus all charges deducted by JHVLICO or the Series Funds prior to that date. The date of cancellation will be the date of such mailing or delivery. Can I choose the form in which JHVLICO pays out policy proceeds? Choosing a payment option You may choose to receive proceeds from the policy as a single sum. This includes proceeds that become payable because of death or full surrender. Alternatively, you can elect to have proceeds of $1,000 or more applied to any of a number of other payment options, including the following: . Option 1 - Proceeds left with us to accumulate with interest . Option 2A - Equal monthly payments of a specified amount until all proceeds are paid out . Option 2B - Equal monthly payments for a specified period of time . Option 3 - Equal monthly payments for life, but with payments guaranteed for a specific number of years . Option 4 - Equal monthly payments for life with no refund . Option 5 - Equal monthly payments for life with a refund if all of the proceeds haven't been paid out 18 You cannot choose an option if the monthly payments under the option would be less than $50. We will issue a supplementary agreement when the proceeds are applied to any alternative payment option. That agreement will spell out the terms of the option in full. We will credit interest on each of the above options. For Options 1 and 2A, the interest will be at least an effective annual rate of 3 1/2%. Changing a payment option You can change the payment option at any time before the proceeds are payable. If you haven't made a choice, the payee of the proceeds has a prescribed period in which he or she can make that choice. Tax impact There may be tax consequences to you or your beneficiary depending upon which payment option is chosen. You should consult with a qualified tax adviser before making that choice. To what extent can JHVLICO vary the terms and conditions of its policies in particular cases? Listed below are some variations we can make in the terms of our policies. Any variation will be made only in accordance with uniform rules that we apply fairly to all of our customers. State law insurance requirements Insurance laws and regulations apply to JHVLICO in every state in which its policies are sold. As a result, various terms and conditions of your insurance coverage may vary from the terms and conditions described in this prospectus, depending upon where you reside. These variations will be reflected in your policy or in endorsements attached to your policy. Variations in expenses or risks We may vary the charges and other terms of our policies where special circumstances result in sales or administrative expenses, mortality risks or other risks that are different from those normally associated with the policies. These include the type of variations discussed under "Reduced charges for eligible classes" on page 33. No variation in any charge will exceed any maximum stated in this prospectus with respect to that charge. How will my policy be treated for income tax purposes? Generally, death benefits paid under policies such as yours are not subject to income tax. Earnings on your account value are not subject to income tax as long as we don't pay them out to you. If we do pay out any amount of your account value upon surrender or partial withdrawal, all or part of that distribution should generally be treated as a return of the premiums you've paid and should not be subject to income tax. Amounts you borrow are generally not taxable to you. However, some of the tax rules change if your policy is found to be a "modified endowment contract." This can happen if you've paid more than a certain amount of premiums that is 19 prescribed by the tax laws. Additional taxes and penalties may be payable for policy distributions of any kind. For further information about the tax consequences of owning a policy, please read "Tax considerations" beginning on page 35. How do I communate with JHVLICO? General Rules You should mail or express all checks and money orders for premium payments and loan repayments to the JHVLICO Life Servicing Office at the appropriate address shown on page 2. Under our current rules, certain requests must be made in writing and be signed and dated by you. They include the following: . surrenders or partial withdrawals . change of death benefit option . increase or decrease in Total Sum Insured . change of beneficiary . election of payment option for policy proceeds . tax withholding elections . election of telephone transaction privilege The following requests may be made either in writing (signed and dated by you) or by telephone or fax if a special form is completed (see "Telephone Transactions" below): . loans . transfers of account value among investment options . change of allocation among investment options for new premium payments You should mail or express all written requests to the JHVLICO Life Servicing Office at the appropriate address shown on page 2. You should also send notice of the insured person's death and related documentation to the JHVLICO Life Servicing Office. We don't consider that we've "received" any communication until such time as it has arrived at the proper place and in the proper and complete form. We have special forms that should be used for a number of the requests mentioned above. You can obtain these forms from the JHVLICO Life Servicing Office or your JHVLICO 20 representative. Each communication to us must include your name, your policy number and the name of the insured person. We cannot process any request that doesn't include this required information. Any communication that arrives after the close of our business day, or on a day that is not a business day, will be considered "received" by us on the next following business day. Our business day currently closes at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, but special circumstances (such as suspension of trading on a major exchange) may dictate an earlier closing time. Telephone Transactions If you complete a special authorization form, you can request loans, transfers among investment options and changes of allocation among investment options simply by telephoning us at 1-800-521-1234 or by faxing us at 1-617-572-6956. Any fax request should include your name, daytime telephone number, policy number and, in the case of transfers and changes of allocation, the names of the investment options involved. We will honor telephone instructions from anyone who provides the correct identifying information, so there is a risk of loss to you if this service is used by an unauthorized person. However, you will receive written confirmation of all telephone transactions. There is also a risk that you will be unable to place your request due to equipment malfunction or heavy phone line usage. If this occurs, you should submit your request in writing. The policies are not designed for professional market timing organizations or other persons or entities that use programmed or frequent transfers among investment options. For reasons such as that, we reserve the right to change our telephone transaction policies or procedures at any time. We also reserve the right to suspend or terminate the privilege altogether with respect to all policies like yours or with respect to any class of such policies. 21 ILLUSTRATION OF DEATH BENEFITS, ACCOUNT VALUES, SURRENDER VALUES AND ACCUMULATED PREMIUMS The following tables illustrate the changes in death benefit, account value and surrender value of the policy under certain hypothetical circumstances that we assume solely for this purpose. Each table separately illustrates the operation of a policy for a specified issue age, premium payment schedule and Total Sum Insured. The amounts shown are for the end of each policy year and assume that all of the account value is invested in funds that achieve investment returns at constant annual rates of 0%, 6% and 12% (i.e., before any fees or expenses deducted from Series Fund assets). After the deduction of average fees and expenses at the Series Fund level (as described below) the corresponding net annual rates of return would be -0.84%, 5.11% and 11.06%. (Investment return reflects investment income and all realized and unrealized capital gains and losses.) The tables assume annual Planned Premiums that are paid at the beginning of each policy year for an insured person who is a 45 year old male standard non-smoker underwriting risk when the policy is issued. Tables are provided for each of the two death benefit options. The tables headed "Current Charges" assume that the current rates for all charges deducted by JHVLICO will apply in each year illustrated. The tables headed "Maximum Charges" are the same, except that the maximum permitted rates for all years are used for all charges. The tables do not reflect any charge that we reserve the right to make but are not currently making. The tables assume that the guaranteed minimum death benefit has not been elected beyond the tenth policy year, that no Additional Sum Insured or optional rider benefits have been elected and that no loans or withdrawals are made. With respect to fees and expenses deducted from Series Fund assets, the amounts shown in all tables reflect (1) investment management fees equivalent to an effective annual rate of .72%, and (2) an assumed average asset charge for all other Series Fund operating expenses equivalent to an effective annual rate of .12%. These rates are the arithmetic average for all funds of the Series Funds. In other words, they are based on the hypothetical assumption that policy account values are allocated equally among the variable investment options. The actual rates associated with any policy will vary depending upon the actual allocation of policy values among the investment options. The charge shown above for all other Series Fund operating expenses reflects reimbursements to certain funds as described in the footnotes to the table beginning on page 11. We currently expect those reimbursement arrangements to continue indefinitely, but that is not guaranteed. Without those arrangements, the assumed average asset charge for all other operating expenses shown above would be higher. This would result in lower values than those shown in the following tables. The second column of each table shows the amount you would have at the end of each policy year if an amount equal to the assumed Planned Premiums were invested to earn interest, after taxes, at 5% compounded annually. This is not a policy value. It is included for comparison purposes only. Because your circumstances will no doubt differ from those in the illustrations that follow, values under your policy will differ, in most cases substantially. Upon request, we will furnish you with a comparable illustration reflecting your proposed insured person's issue age, sex and underwriting risk classification, and the Total Sum Insured and annual Planned Premium amount requested. 22 Plan: Flexible Premium Variable Life $100,000 Total Sum Insured at Issue Male, Issue age 45, Fully Underwritten Nonsmoker Underwriting Class Option A Death Benefit No Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit after tenth Policy Year Planned Premium: $5,649 for Seven Years* Using Current Charges

______________________________________ * The illustrations assume that Planned Premiums equal to the Target Premium are paid at the start of each of the first seven Policy Years. The Death Benefit and Surrender Value will differ if premiums are paid in different amounts or frequencies, if policy loans are taken, or if Additional Sum Insured, Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit after the tenth Policy Year, or optional rider benefits are elected. ** Policy lapses unless additional premium payments are made. It is emphasized that the hypothetical investment returns are illustrative only and should not be deemed a representation of past or future investment results. Actual investment results may be more or less than those shown and will depend on a number of factors, including investment allocations made by the Owner. The death benefit and surrender value for a Policy would be different from those shown if the actual gross rates of investment return average 0%, 6%, or 12% over a period of years, but also fluctuate above or below the average for individual Policy years.

We are authorized to transact a life insurance and annuity business in all states other than New York and in the District of Columbia. We began selling variable life insurance policies in 1980. We are regulated and supervised by the Massachusetts Commissioner of Insurance, who periodically examines our affairs. We also are subject to the applicable insurance laws and regulations of all jurisdictions in which we are authorized to do business. We are required to submit annual statements of our operations, including financial statements, to the insurance departments of the various jurisdictions in which we do business for purposes of determining solvency and compliance with local insurance laws and regulations. The regulation to which we are subject, however, does not provide a guarantee as to such matters. We are a wholly-owned subsidiary of John Hancock Life Insurance Company ("John Hancock"), a Massachusetts stock life insurance company. On February 1, 2000, John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company (which was chartered in Massachusetts in 1862) converted to a stock company by "demutualizing" and changed its name to John Hancock Life Insurance Company. As part of the demutualization process, John Hancock became a subsidiary of John Hancock Financial Services, Inc., a newly formed publicly-traded corporation. John Hancock's home office is at John Hancock Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02117. As of December 31, 2000, John Hancock's assets were approximately $88 billion and it had invested approximately $575 million in JHVLICO in connection with JHVLICO's organization and operation. It is anticipated that John Hancock will from time to time make additional capital contributions to JHVLICO to enable us to meet our reserve requirements and expenses in connection with our business. John Hancock is committed to make additional capital contributions if necessary to ensure that we maintain a positive net worth. How we support the policy and investment options Separate Account S The variable investment options shown on page 1 are in fact subaccounts of Separate Account S (the "Account"), a separate account established by us under Massachusetts law. The Account meets the definition of "separate account" under the Federal securities laws and is registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"). Such registration does not involve supervision by the SEC of the management of the Account or JHVLICO. The Account's assets are the property of JHVLICO. Each policy provides that amounts we hold in the Account pursuant to the policies cannot be reached by any other persons who may have claims against us. The assets in each subaccount are invested in the corresponding fund of one of the Series Funds. New subaccounts may be added as new funds are added to the Series Funds and made available to policy owners. Existing subaccounts may be deleted if existing funds are deleted from the Series Funds. We will purchase and redeem Series Fund shares for the Account at their net asset value without any sales or redemption charges. Shares of a Series Fund represent an interest in one of the funds of the Series Fund which corresponds to a subaccount of the Account. Any dividend or capital gains distributions received by the Account will be reinvested in shares of that same fund at their net asset value as of the dates paid. On each business day, shares of each fund are purchased or redeemed by us for each subaccount based on, among other things, the amount of net premiums allocated to the subaccount, distributions reinvested, and transfers to, from and among 28 subaccounts, all to be effected as of that date. Such purchases and redemptions are effected at each fund's net asset value per share determined for that same date. A "business day" is any date on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. We compute policy values for each business day as of the close of that day (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time). Our general account Our obligations under the policy's fixed investment option are backed by our general account assets. Our general account consists of assets owned by us other than those in the Account and in other separate accounts that we may establish. Subject to applicable law, we have sole discretion over the investment of assets of the general account and policy owners do not share in the investment experience of, or have any preferential claim on, those assets. Instead, we guarantee that the account value allocated to the fixed investment option will accrue interest daily at an effective annual rate of at least 4% without regard to the actual investment experience of the general account. Because of exemptive and exclusionary provisions, interests in our fixed investment option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and our general account has not been registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act. Accordingly, neither the general account nor any interests therein are subject to the provisions of these acts, and we have been advised that the staff of the SEC has not reviewed the disclosure in this prospectus relating to the fixed investment option. Disclosure regarding the fixed investment option may, however, be subject to certain generally-applicable provisions of the Federal securities laws relating to accuracy and completeness of statements made in prospectuses. Procedures for issuance of a policy Generally, the policy is available with a minimum Total Sum Insured at issue of $100,000 and a minimum Basic Sum Insured at issue of $50,000. At the time of issue, the insured person must have an attained age of at least 20 and no more than 85. All insured persons must meet certain health and other insurance risk criteria called "underwriting standards". Policies issued in Montana or in connection with certain employee plans will not directly reflect the sex of the insured person in either the premium rates or the charges or values under the policy. The illustrations set forth in this prospectus are sex-distinct and, therefore, may not reflect the rates, charges, or values that would apply to such policies. Minimum Initial Premium The Minimum Initial Premium must be received by us at our Life Servicing Office in order for the policy to be in full force and effect. There is no grace period for the payment of the Minimum Initial Premium. The Minimum Initial Premium is determined by us based on the characteristics of the insured person, the Total Sum Insured at issue, and the policy options you have selected. Commencement of insurance coverage After you apply for a policy, it can sometimes take up to several weeks for us to gather and evaluate all the information we need to decide whether to issue a policy to you and, if so, what the insured person's rate class should be. After we approve an application for a policy and assign an appropriate insurance rate class, we will prepare the policy for delivery. We will not pay a death benefit under a policy unless the policy is in effect when the insured person dies (except for the circumstances described under "Temporary insurance coverage prior to policy delivery" on page 30). The policy will take effect only if all of the following conditions are satisfied: . The policy is delivered to and received by the applicant. 29 . The Minimum Initial Premium is received by us. . Each insured person is living and still meets our health criteria for issuing insurance. If all of the above conditions are satisfied, the policy will take effect on the date shown in the policy as the "date of issue." That is the date on which we begin to deduct monthly charges. Policy months, policy years and policy anniversaries are all measured from the date of issue. Backdating In order to preserve a younger age at issue for the insured person, we can designate a date of issue that is up to 60 days earlier than the date that would otherwise apply. This is referred to as "backdating" and is allowed under state insurance laws. Backdating can also be used in certain corporate-owned life insurance cases involving multiple policies to retain a common monthly deduction date. The conditions for coverage described above under "Commencement of insurance coverage" must still be satisfied, but in a backdating situation the policy always takes effect retroactively. Backdating results in a lower insurance charge (if it is used to preserve the insured person's younger age at issue), but monthly charges begin earlier than would otherwise be the case. Those monthly charges will be deducted as soon as we receive premiums sufficient to pay them. Temporary coverage prior to policy delivery If a specified amount of premium is paid with the application for a policy and other conditions are met, we will provide temporary term life insurance coverage on the insured person for a period prior to the time coverage under the policy takes effect. Such temporary term coverage will be subject to the terms and conditions described in the application for the policy, including limits on amount and duration of coverage. Monthly deduction dates Each charge that we deduct monthly is assessed against your account value or the subaccounts at the close of business on the date of issue and at the close of the first business day in each subsequent policy month. Basic Sum Insured vs. Additional Sum Insured As noted earlier in this prospectus, you should consider a number of factors in determining whether to elect coverage in the form of Basic Sum Insured or in the form of Additional Sum Insured. For the same amount of premiums paid, the amount of sales charge deducted from premiums and the amount of compensation paid to the selling insurance agent will generally be less if coverage is included as Additional Sum Insured, rather than as Basic Sum Insured. On the other hand, the amount of any Additional Sum Insured is not included in the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature. Therefore, if the policy's surrender value is insufficient to pay the monthly charges as they fall due (including the charges for the Additional Sum Insured), the Additional Sum Insured coverage will lapse, even if the Basic Sum Insured stays in effect pursuant to the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature. Generally, you will incur lower sales charges and have more flexible coverage with respect to the Additional Sum Insured than with respect to the Basic Sum Insured. If this is your priority, you may wish to maximize the proportion of the Additional Sum Insured. However, if your priority is to take advantage of the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature, the proportion of the Policy's Total Sum Insured that is guaranteed can be increased by taking out more coverage as Basic Sum Insured at the time of policy issuance. As stated earlier in this prospectus, the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature does not apply if the Additional Sum Insured is scheduled to exceed the Basic Sum Insured at any time. If such was the case, you would presumably 30 wish to maximize the proportion of the Additional Sum Insured. If you want to purchase Additional Sum Insured, you may select from among several forms of it: a level amount of coverage; an amount of coverage that increases on each policy anniversary up to a prescribed limit; an amount of coverage that increases on each policy anniversary to the amount of premiums paid during prior policy years plus the Planned Premium for the current policy year, subject to certain limits; or a combination of those forms of coverage. Any decision you make to modify the amount of Additional Sum Insured coverage after issue can have significant tax consequences (see "Tax Considerations" beginning on page 35). Commencement of investment performance Any premium payment processed prior to the twentieth day after the date of issue will automatically be allocated to the Money Market investment option. On the later of the date such payment is received or the twentieth day following the date of issue, the portion of the Money Market investment option attributable to such payment will be reallocated automatically among the investment options you have chosen. All other premium payments will be allocated among the investment options you have chosen as soon as they are processed. How we process certain policy transactions Premium payments We will process any premium payment as of the day we receive it, unless one of the following exceptions applies: (1) We will process a payment received prior to a policy's date of issue as if received on the date of issue. (2) If the Minimum Initial Premium is not received prior to the date of issue, we will process each premium payment received thereafter as if received on the business day immediately preceding the date of issue until all of the Minimum Initial Premium is received. (3) We will process the portion of any premium payment for which we require evidence of the insured person's continued insurability only after we have received such evidence and found it satisfactory to us. (4) If we receive any premium payment that we think will cause a policy to become a modified endowment or will cause a policy to lose its status as life insurance under the tax laws, we will not accept the excess portion of that premium payment and will immediately notify the owner. We will refund the excess premium when the premium payment check has had time to clear the banking system (but in no case more than two weeks after receipt), except in the following circumstances: . The tax problem resolves itself prior to the date the refund is to be made; or . The tax problem relates to modified endowment status and we receive a signed acknowledgment from the owner prior to the refund date instructing us to process the premium notwithstanding the tax issues involved. In the above cases, we will treat the excess premium as having been received on the date the tax problem resolves itself or the date we receive the signed acknowledgment. We will then process it accordingly. (5) If a premium payment is received or is otherwise scheduled to be processed (as specified above) on a date that is not a business day, the premium payment will be processed on the business day next following that date. 31 Transfers among investment options Any reallocation among investment options must be such that the total in all investment options after reallocation equals 100% of account value. Transfers out of a variable investment option will be effective at the end of the business day in which we receive at our Life Servicing Office notice satisfactory to us. If received on or before the policy anniversary, requests for transfer out of the fixed investment option will be processed on the policy anniversary (or the next business day if the policy anniversary does not occur on a business day). If received after the policy anniversary, such a request will be processed at the end of the business day in which we receive the request at our Life Servicing Office. If you request a transfer out of the fixed investment option 61 days or more prior to the policy anniversary, we will not process that portion of the reallocation, and your confirmation statement will not reflect a transfer out of the fixed investment option as to such request. Currently, there is no minimum amount limit on transfers into the fixed investment option, but we reserve the right to impose such a limit in the future. We have the right to defer transfers of amounts out of the fixed investment option for up to six months. Telephone transfers and policy loans Once you have completed a written authorization, you may request a transfer or policy loan by telephone or by fax. If the fax request option becomes unavailable, another means of telecommunication will be substituted. If you authorize telephone transactions, you will be liable for any loss, expense or cost arising out of any unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions which we reasonably believe to be genuine, unless such loss, expense or cost is the result of our mistake or negligence. We employ procedures which provide safeguards against the execution of unauthorized transactions, and which are reasonably designed to confirm that instructions received by telephone are genuine. These procedures include requiring personal identification, tape recording calls, and providing written confirmation to the owner. If we do not employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine, we may be liable for any loss due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. Effective date of other policy transactions The following transactions take effect on the policy anniversary on or next following the date we approve the request: . Total Sum Insured decreases . Additional Sum Insured increases . Change of death benefit option from Option B to Option A . Any other change of death benefit option, when and if permitted by our administrative rules (see "Change of death benefit option" on page 17) Reinstatements of lapsed policies take effect on the monthly deduction date on or next following the date we approve the request for reinstatement. We process loans, surrenders, partial withdrawals and loan repayments as of the day we receive such request or repayment. Effects of policy loans The account value, the surrender value, and any death benefit above the Total Sum Insured are permanently affected by any loan, whether or not it is repaid in whole or in part. This is because the amount of the loan is deducted from the investment options and placed in a special loan account. The investment options and the special loan account will generally have different rates of investment return. The amount of the outstanding loan (which includes accrued and unpaid interest) is subtracted from the amount otherwise payable when the policy proceeds become payable. 32 Whenever the outstanding loan equals or exceeds the account value, the policy will terminate 31 days after we have mailed notice of termination to you (and to any assignee of record at such assignee's last known address) specifying the minimum amount that must be paid to avoid termination, unless a repayment of at least the amount specified is made within that period. Also, taking out a loan on the policy increases the risk that the policy may lapse because of the difference between the interest rate charged on the loan and the interest rate credited to the special loan account. Policy loans may also result in adverse tax consequences under certain circumstances (see "Tax considerations" beginning on page 35). Additional information about how certain policy charges work Sales expenses and related charges The sales charges help to compensate us for the cost of selling our policies. (See "What charges will JHVLICO deduct from my investment in the policy?" in the Basic Information section of this prospectus.) The amount of the charges in any policy year does not specifically correspond to sales expenses for that year. We expect to recover our total sales expenses over the life of the policies. To the extent that the sales charges do not cover total sales expenses, the sales expenses may be recovered from other sources, including gains from the asset-based risk charge and other gains with respect to the policies, or from our general assets. (See "How we market the policies" on page 34.) Similarly, administrative expenses not fully covered by the issue charge and the administrative charge may also be recovered from such other sources. Effect of premium payment pattern You may structure the timing and amount of premium payments to minimize the sales charges, although doing so involves certain risks. Paying less than one Target Premium in the first policy year or paying more than one Target Premium in any policy year could reduce your total sales charges over time. For example, if the Target Premium was $10,000 and you paid a premium of $10,000 in each of the first ten policy years, you would pay total sales charges of $6,500. If you paid $20,000 (i.e., two times the Target Premium amount) in every other policy year up to the ninth policy year, you would pay total sales charges of only $3,250. However, delaying the payment of Target Premiums to later policy years could increase the risk that the guaranteed minimum death benefit feature will lapse and the account value will be insufficient to pay monthly policy charges as they come due. As a result, the policy or any Additional Sum Insured may lapse and eventually terminate. Conversely, accelerating the payment of Target Premiums to earlier policy years could cause aggregate premiums paid to exceed the policy's 7-pay premium limit and, as a result, cause the policy to become a modified endowment, with adverse tax consequences to you upon receipt of policy distributions. (See "Tax considerations" beginning on page 35.) Monthly charges We deduct the monthly charges described in the Basic Information section from your policy's investment options in proportion to the amount of account value you have in each. For each month that we cannot deduct any charge because of insufficient account value, the uncollected charges will accumulate and be deducted when and if sufficient account value becomes available. The insurance under the policy continues in full force during any grace period but, if the insured person dies during the policy grace period, the amount of unpaid monthly charges is deducted from the death benefit otherwise payable. Reduced charges for eligible classes The charges otherwise applicable may be reduced with respect to policies issued to a class of associated individuals or to a trustee, employer or similar entity where we anticipate that the sales to the 33 members of the class will result in lower than normal sales or administrative expenses, lower taxes or lower risks to us. We will make these reductions in accordance with our rules in effect at the time of the application for a policy. The factors we consider in determining the eligibility of a particular group for reduced charges, and the level of the reduction, are as follows: the nature of the association and its organizational framework; the method by which sales will be made to the members of the class; the facility with which premiums will be collected from the associated individuals and the association's capabilities with respect to administrative tasks; the anticipated lapse and surrender rates of the policies; the size of the class of associated individuals and the number of years it has been in existence; the aggregate amount of premiums paid; and any other such circumstances which result in a reduction in sales or administrative expenses, lower taxes or lower risks. Any reduction in charges will be reasonable and will apply uniformly to all prospective policy purchasers in the class and will not unfairly discriminate against any owner. How we market the policies Signator Investors, Inc. ("Signator"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of John Hancock located at 197 Clarendon Street, Boston, MA 02117, is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Signator acts as principal underwriter and principal distributor of the policies pursuant to a sales agreement among John Hancock, Signator, JHVLICO, and the Account. Signator also serves as principal underwriter for John Hancock Variable Annuity Accounts U, I and V, John Hancock Mutual Variable Life Insurance Account UV and John Hancock Variable Life Accounts U and V, all of which are registered under the 1940 Act. Signator is also the principal underwriter for John Hancock Variable Series Trust I. Applications for policies are solicited by agents who are licensed by state insurance authorities to sell JHVLICO's policies and who are also registered representatives ("representatives") of Signator or other broker-dealer firms, as discussed below. John Hancock (on behalf of JHVLICO) performs insurance underwriting and determines whether to accept or reject the application for a policy and each insured person's risk classification. JHVLICO will make the appropriate refund if a policy ultimately is not issued or is returned under the "free look" provision. Officers and employees of John Hancock and JHVLICO are covered by a blanket bond by a commercial carrier in the amount of $25 million. Signator's representatives are compensated for sales of the policies on a commission and service fee basis by Signator, and JHVLICO reimburses Signator for such compensation and for other direct and indirect expenses (including agency expense allowances, general agent, district manager and supervisor's compensation, agent's training allowances, deferred compensation and insurance benefits of agents, general agents, district managers and supervisors, agency office clerical expenses and advertising) actually incurred in connection with the marketing and sale of the policies. The maximum commission payable to a Signator representative for selling a policy is 21% of the Target Premium paid in the first policy year, 12 % of the Target Premium paid in each of the second through fifth policy years, and 3% of the Target Premium paid in each policy year thereafter. The maximum commission on any premium paid in any policy year in excess of the Target Premium is 2%. Representatives with less than four years of service with Signator and those compensated on salary plus bonus or level commission programs may be paid on a different basis. Representatives who meet certain productivity and persistency standards with respect to the sale of policies issued by JHVLICO and John Hancock will be eligible for additional compensation. 34 The policies are also sold through other registered broker-dealers that have entered into selling agreements with Signator and whose representatives are authorized by applicable law to sell variable life insurance policies. The commissions which will be paid by such broker-dealers to their representatives will be in accordance with their established rules. The commission rates may be more or less than those set forth above for Signator's representatives. In addition, their qualified registered representatives may be reimbursed by the broker-dealers under expense reimbursement allowance programs in any year for approved voucherable expenses incurred. Signator will compensate the broker-dealers as provided in the selling agreements, and JHVLICO will reimburse Signator for such amounts and for certain other direct expenses in connection with marketing the policies through other broker-dealers. Representatives of Signator and the other broker-dealers mentioned above may also earn "credits" toward qualification for attendance at certain business meetings sponsored by John Hancock. The offering of the policies is intended to be continuous, but neither JHVLICO nor Signator is obligated to sell any particular amount of policies. Tax considerations This description of federal income tax consequences is only a brief summary and is not intended as tax advice. Tax consequences will vary based on your own particular circumstances, and for further information you should consult a qualified tax advisor. Federal, state and local tax laws, regulations and interpretations can change from time to time. As a result, the tax consequences to you and the beneficiary may be altered, in some cases retroactively. Policy proceeds We believe the policy will receive the same federal income and estate tax treatment as fixed benefit life insurance policies. Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") defines life insurance for federal tax purposes. If certain standards are met at issue and over the life of the policy, the policy will satisfy that definition. We will monitor compliance with these standards. If the policy complies with the definition of life insurance, we believe the death benefit under the policy will be excludable from the beneficiary's gross income under the Code. In addition, increases in account value as a result of interest or investment experience will not be subject to federal income tax unless and until values are actually received through distributions. Distributions for tax purposes can include amounts received upon surrender or partial withdrawals. You may also be deemed to have received a distribution for tax purposes if you assign all or part of your policy rights or change your policy's ownership. In general, the owner will be taxed on the amount of distributions that exceed the premiums paid under the policy. But under certain circumstances within the first 15 policy years, the owner may be taxed on a distribution even if total withdrawals do not exceed total premiums paid. Any taxable distribution will be ordinary income to the owner (rather than capital gains). We also believe that, except as noted below, loans received under the policy will be treated as indebtedness of an owner and that no part of any loan will constitute income to the owner. However, if the policy terminates for any reason, the amount of any outstanding loan that was not previously considered income will be treated as if it had been distributed to the owner upon such termination. This could result in a considerable tax bill. Under certain circumstances involving large amounts of outstanding loans, you might find yourself having to choose between high premiums requirements to keep your policy from lapsing and a significant tax burden if you allow the lapse to occur. 35 It is possible that, despite our monitoring, a policy might fail to qualify as life insurance under Section 7702 of the Code. This could happen, for example, if we inadvertently failed to return to you any premium payments that were in excess of permitted amounts, or if any of the funds failed to meet certain investment diversification or other requirements of the Code. If this were to occur, you would be subject to income tax on the income and gains under the policy for the period of the disqualification and for subsequent periods. In the past, the United States Treasury Department has stated that it anticipated issuing guidelines prescribing circumstances in which the ability of a policy owner to direct his or her investment to particular funds may cause the policy owner, rather than the insurance company, to be treated as the owner of the shares of those funds. In that case, any income and gains attributable to those shares would be included in your current gross income for federal income tax purposes. Under current law, however, we believe that we, and not the owner of a policy, would be considered the owner of the fund's shares for tax purposes. Tax consequences of ownership or receipt of policy proceeds under federal, state and local estate, inheritance, gift and other tax laws depend on the circumstances of each owner or beneficiary. Because there may be unfavorable tax consequences (including recognition of taxable income and the loss of income tax-free treatment for any death benefit payable to the beneficiary), you should consult a qualified tax adviser prior to changing the policy's ownership or making any assignment of ownership interests. 7-pay premium limit At the time of policy issuance, we will determine whether the Planned Premium schedule will exceed the 7-pay limit discussed below. If so, our standard procedures prohibit issuance of the policy unless you sign a form acknowledging that fact. The 7-pay limit is the total of net level premiums that would have been payable at any time for a comparable fixed policy to be fully "paid-up" after the payment of 7 equal annual premiums. "Paid-up" means that no further premiums would be required to continue the coverage in force until maturity, based on certain prescribed assumptions. If the total premiums paid at any time during the first 7 policy years exceed the 7-pay limit, the policy will be treated as a "modified endowment", which can have adverse tax consequences. The owner will be taxed on distributions and loans from a "modified endowment" to the extent of any income (gain) to the owner (on an income-first basis). The distributions and loans affected will be those made on or after, and within the two year period prior to, the time the policy becomes a modified endowment. Additionally, a 10% penalty tax may be imposed on taxable portions of such distributions or loans that are made before the owner attains age 59 1/2. Furthermore, any time there is a "material change" in a policy (such as an increase in Additional Sum Insured, the addition of certain other policy benefits after issue, a change in death benefit option, or reinstatement of a lapsed policy), the policy will have a new 7-pay limit as if it were a newly-issued policy. If a prescribed portion of the policy's then account value, plus all other premiums paid within 7 years after the material change, at any time exceed the new 7-pay limit, the policy will become a modified endowment. Moreover, if benefits under a policy are reduced (such as a reduction in the Total Sum Insured or death benefit or the reduction or cancellation of certain rider benefits) during the 7 years in which a 7-pay test is being applied, the 7-pay limit will be recalculated based on the reduced benefits. If the premiums paid to date are greater than the recalculated 7-pay limit, the policy will become a modified endowment. All modified endowments issued by the same insurer (or its affiliates) to the owner during any calendar year generally will be treated as one contract 36 for the purpose of applying the modified endowment rules. A policy received in exchange for a modified endowment will itself also be a modified endowment. You should consult your tax advisor if you have questions regarding the possible impact of the 7-pay limit on your policy. Corporate and H.R. 10 plans The policy may be acquired in connection with the funding of retirement plans satisfying the qualification requirements of Section 401 of the Code. If so, the Code provisions relating to such plans and life insurance benefits thereunder should be carefully scrutinized. We are not responsible for compliance with the terms of any such plan or with the requirements of applicable provisions of the Code. Reports that you will receive At least annually, we will send you a statement setting forth the following information as of the end of the most recent reporting period: the amount of the death benefit, the Basic Sum Insured and the Additional Sum Insured, the account value, the portion of the account value in each investment option, the surrender value, premiums received and charges deducted from premiums since the last report, and any outstanding policy loan (and interest charged for the preceding policy year). Moreover, you also will receive confirmations of premium payments, transfers among investment options, policy loans, partial withdrawals and certain other policy transactions. Semiannually we will send you a report containing the financial statements of each Series Fund, including a list of securities held in each fund. Voting privileges that you will have All of the assets in the subaccounts of the Account are invested in shares of the corresponding funds of the Series Funds. We will vote the shares of each of the funds of the Series Funds which are deemed attributable to variable life insurance policies at regular and special meetings of the Series Funds' shareholders in accordance with instructions received from owners of such policies. Shares of the Series Funds held in the Account which are not attributable to such policies, as well as shares for which instructions from owners are not received, will be represented by us at the meeting. We will vote such shares for and against each matter in the same proportions as the votes based upon the instructions received from the owners of such policies. We determine the number of a fund's shares held in a subaccount attributable to each owner by dividing the amount of a policy's account value held in the subaccount by the net asset value of one share in the fund. Fractional votes will be counted. We determine the number of shares as to which the owner may give instructions as of the record date for the Series Fund's meeting. Owners of policies may give instructions regarding the election of the Board of Trustees or Board of Directors of a Series Fund, ratification of the selection of independent auditors, approval of Series Fund investment advisory agreements and other matters requiring a shareholder vote. We will furnish owners with information and forms to enable owners to give voting instructions. However, we may, in certain limited circumstances permitted by the SEC's rules, disregard voting instructions. If we do disregard voting instructions, you will receive a summary of that action and the reasons for it in the next semi-annual report to owners. Changes that JHVLICO can make as to your policy Changes relating to a Series Fund or the Account The voting privileges described in this prospectus reflect our understanding of applicable Federal securities law requirements. To the extent that applicable law, regulations or interpretations change to eliminate or restrict the need for such voting privileges, we reserve the right to proceed in accordance with any such revised requirements. We 37 also reserve the right, subject to compliance with applicable law, including approval of owners if so required, (1) to transfer assets determined by JHVLICO to be associated with the class of policies to which your policy belongs from the Account to another separate account or subaccount, (2) to operate the Account as a "management-type investment company" under the 1940 Act, or in any other form permitted by law, the investment adviser of which would be JHVLICO, John Hancock or an affiliate of either, (3) to deregister the Account under the 1940 Act, (4) to substitute for the fund shares held by a subaccount any other investment permitted by law, and (5) to take any action necessary to comply with or obtain any exemptions from the 1940 Act. We would notify owners of any of the foregoing changes and, to the extent legally required, obtain approval of owners and any regulatory body prior thereto. Such notice and approval, however, may not be legally required in all cases. Other permissible changes We reserve the right to make any changes in the policy necessary to ensure the policy is within the definition of life insurance under the Federal tax laws and is in compliance with any changes in Federal or state tax laws. In our policies, we reserve the right to make certain changes if they would serve the best interests of policy owners or would be appropriate in carrying out the purposes of the policies. Such changes include the following: . Changes necessary to comply with or obtain or continue exemptions under the federal securities laws . Combining or removing investment options . Changes in the form of organization of any separate account Any such changes will be made only to the extent permitted by applicable laws and only in the manner permitted by such laws. When required by law, we will obtain your approval of the changes and the approval of any appropriate regulatory authority. Adjustments we make to death benefits If the insured person commits suicide within certain time periods, the amount of death benefit we pay will be limited as described in the policy. Also, if an application misstated the age or gender of the insured person, we will adjust the amount of any death benefit as described in the policy. When we pay policy proceeds General We will pay any death benefit, withdrawal, surrender value or loan within 7 days after we receive the last required form or request (and, with respect to the death benefit, any other documentation that may be required). If we don't have information about the desired manner of payment within 7 days after the date we receive documentation of the insured person's death, we will pay the proceeds as a single sum. Delay to challenge coverage We may challenge the validity of your insurance policy based on any material misstatements made to us in the application for the policy. We cannot make such a challenge, however, beyond certain time limits that are specified in the policy. Delay for check clearance We reserve the right to defer payment of that portion of your account value that is attributable to a premium payment made by check for a reasonable period of time (not to exceed 15 days) to allow the check to clear the banking system. Delay of separate account proceeds We reserve the right to defer payment of any death benefit, loan or other distribution that is derived from a variable investment option if (a) the New York 38 Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend and holiday closings) or trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (b) an emergency exists, as a result of which disposal of securities is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable to fairly determine the account value; or (c) the SEC by order permits the delay for the protection of owners. Transfers and allocations of account value among the investment options may also be postponed under these circumstances. If we need to defer calculation of separate account values for any of the foregoing reasons, all delayed transactions will be processed at the next values that we do compute. Other details about exercising rights and paying benefits Joint ownership If more than one person owns a policy, all owners must join in most requests to exercise rights under the policy. Assigning your policy You may assign your rights in the policy to someone else as collateral for a loan or for some other reason. Assignments do not require the consent of any revocable beneficiary. A copy of the assignment must be forwarded to us. We are not responsible for any payment we make or any action we take before we receive notice of the assignment in good order. Nor are we responsible for the validity of the assignment. An absolute assignment is a change of ownership. All collateral assignees of record must consent to any full surrender, partial withdrawal or loan from the policy. Your beneficiary You name your beneficiary when you apply for the policy. The beneficiary is entitled to the proceeds we pay following the insured person's death. You may change the beneficiary during the insured person's lifetime. Such a change requires the consent of any irrevocable named beneficiary. A new beneficiary designation is effective as of the date you sign it, but will not affect any payments we make before we receive it. If no beneficiary is living when the insured person dies, we will pay the insurance proceeds to the owner or the owner's estate.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these unaudited consolidated financial statements. 47 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company (the Company), a wholly-owned subsidiary of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (John Hancock or the Parent), have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2001. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual audited financial statements as of December 31, 2000 included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (hereafter referred to as the Company's 2000 Form 10-K. Prior to 2000, the Company did not prepare its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and financial information on such basis currently is not readily available for earlier periods. Comparative financial statements prepared on a statutory-basis are included in the Company's 2000 Form 10-K). The balance sheet at December 31, 2000 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Reorganization and Initial Public Offering Pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization approved by the policyholders and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance, effective February 1, 2000, John Hancock converted from a mutual life insurance company to a stock life insurance company (i.e., demutualized) and became a wholly owned subsidiary of John Hancock Financial Services, Inc., which is a holding company. In connection with the reorganization, John Hancock changed its name to John Hancock Life Insurance Company. In addition, on February 1, 2000, John Hancock Financial Services, Inc. completed its initial public offering and 102 million shares of common stock were issued at an initial public offering price of $17 per share. 48 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement 133." This Statement amends SFAS No. 133 to defer its effective date for one year, to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities--an amendment of SFAS No. 133". This Statement makes certain changes in the hedging provisions of SFAS No. 133, and is effective concurrent with SFAS No. 133. As amended, SFAS No. 133 requires all derivatives to be recognized on the balance sheet at fair value, and establishes special accounting for the following three types of hedges: fair value hedges, cash flow hedges, and hedges of foreign currency exposures of net investments in foreign operations. Special accounting for qualifying hedges provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the corresponding changes in value of the hedged item. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be recognized immediately in earnings and will be included in net realized and other investment gains. As a result, such amounts will not be included in the determination of the Company's segment after tax operating income. The Company believes that its current risk management philosophy will remain largely unchanged after adoption of the Statement. In addition, SFAS No. 133, as amended, precludes the designation of held-to-maturity fixed maturity investment securities as hedged items in hedging relationships where the hedged risk is interest rate risk. On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended. The adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended, resulted in a charge to operations of $1.6 million (net of tax of $0.4 million) as of January 1, 2001. In addition, as of January 1, 2001, a $7.2 million (net of tax of $3.9 million) cumulative effect of accounting change was recorded in other comprehensive income for the transition adjustment in the adoption of SFAS 133, as amended, and the reclassification of certain securities from the held-to-maturity category to the available-for-sale category. The transition adjustment for the adoption of SFAS 133 resulted in an increase in other comprehensive income of $0.8 million (net of tax of $0.4 million) that was accounted for as the cumulative effect of accounting change. The adjustment for the reclassification of $0.6 billion of the held-to-maturity fixed maturity investment portfolio to the available-for-sale category resulted in an increase in other comprehensive income of $6.4 million (net of tax of $3.4 million) as of January 1, 2001. Codification In March 1998, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) adopted codified statutory accounting principles (Codification) effective January 1, 2001. Codification changes prescribe statutory accounting practices and results in changes to the accounting practices that the Company's domestic life insurance subsidiaries use to prepare their statutory-basis financial statements. The states of domicile of the Company's domestic life insurance subsidiaries adopted Codification as the prescribed basis of accounting on which domestic insurers must report their statutory-basis results effective January 1, 2001. The cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles adopted to conform to the requirements of Codification was reported as an adjustment to surplus in the statutory-basis financial statements as of January 1, 2001. Although the implementation of Codification had a negative impact on the Company's domestic life insurance subsidiaries' statutory-basis capital and surplus, the Companies remains in compliance with all regulatory and contractual obligations. 49 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 2. Transactions with Parent John Hancock provides the Company with personnel, property and facilities in carrying out certain of its corporate functions. John Hancock annually determines a fee (the parent company service fee) for these services and facilities based on a number of criteria, which are periodically revised to reflect continuing changes in the Company's operations. The parent company service fee is included in other operating costs and expenses within the Company's income statements. John Hancock charged the Company a service fee of $38.5 million and $48.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. As of March 31, 2001, the Company owed John Hancock $14.6 million related to these services, which is included in other liabilities. John Hancock has guaranteed that, if necessary, it will make additional capital contributions to prevent the Company's shareholder's equity from declining below $1.0 million. Note 3. Segment Information The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units offering different products and services. The reportable segments are managed separately, as they focus on different products, markets or distribution channels. Retail-Protection Segment. Offers a variety of individual life insurance, including participating whole life, term life, universal life and variable life insurance. Products are distributed through multiple distribution channels, including insurance agents and brokers and alternative distribution channels that include banks, financial planners, direct marketing and the Internet. Retail-Asset Gathering Segment. Offers individual annuities, consisting of fixed deferred annuities, fixed immediate annuities, single premium immediate annuities, and variable annuities. This segment distributes its products through distribution channels including insurance agents and brokers affiliated with the Company, securities brokerage firms, financial planners, and banks. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Allocations of net investment income are based on the amount of assets allocated to each segment. Other costs and operating expenses are allocated to each segment based on a review of the nature of such costs, cost allocations utilizing time studies, and other relevant allocation methodologies. Management of the Company evaluates performance based on segment after-tax operating income, which excludes the effect of net realized investment and other gains or losses and other unusual or non-recurring events and transactions. Segment after-tax operating income is determined by adjusting GAAP net income for net realized investment and other gains and losses and certain other items which management believes are not indicative of overall operating trends. While these items may be significant components in understanding and assessing the Company's financial performance, management believes that the presentation of after-tax operating income enhances its understanding of the Company's results of operations by highlighting net income attributable to the normal, recurring operations of the business. Amounts reported as segment adjustments in the tables below primarily relate to: (i) certain net realized investment and other gains (losses), net of related amortization adjustment for deferred policy acquisition costs; (ii) benefits to policyholders and expenses incurred relating to the settlement of a class action lawsuit against the Company involving certain individual life insurance policies sold from 1979 through 1996; (iii) restructuring costs related to our distribution systems and retail operations. 50 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) The following table summarizes selected financial information by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, and reconciles segment revenues and segment after-tax operating income to amounts reported in the consolidated statements of income (in millions):

The Company operates only in the United States and has no reportable major customers. Revenues are attributed to countries based on the location of customers. 51 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 4. Derivatives and Hedging Instruments The Company uses various derivative instruments to hedge and manage its exposure to changes in interest rate levels, foreign exchange rates, and equity market prices, and to manage the duration mismatch of assets and liabilities. The fair value of derivative instruments classified as assets at March 31, 2001 was $10.5 million, and appears on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in other assets. The fair value of derivative instruments classified as liabilities at March 31, 2001 was $7.3 million, and appears on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in other liabilities. In certain of these cases, the Company uses hedge accounting as allowed by SFAS 133, as amended, by designating derivative instruments as either fair value or cash flow hedges. For derivative instruments that are designated as fair value hedges, the change in fair value of the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting change in fair value of the hedged item are recorded in realized investment gains and losses. The change in value of the hedged item is used to adjust its cost basis on a quarterly basis and is amortized into investment income over its remaining life, beginning either immediately or when the hedge designation is removed. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative instrument is recorded in other comprehensive income, and then reclassified into income when the hedged item affects income. Hedge effectiveness is assessed quarterly by a variety of techniques including regression analysis and cumulative dollar offset. In certain cases zero hedge ineffectiveness is assumed because the derivative instrument was constructed such that all the terms of the derivative exactly match the hedged risk in the hedged item. The ineffective portion is recorded in realized investment gains and losses. For derivative instruments not designated as hedges, the change in fair value of the derivative is recorded in realized investment gains and losses. In cases where the Company receives or pays a premium as consideration for entering into a derivative instrument (i.e., interest rate caps and floors, swaptions, and equity collars), the premium is amortized into investment income over the useful life of the derivative instrument. The fair value of such premiums (i.e., the inherent ineffectiveness of the derivative) is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and is included in realized investment gains and losses. Fair Value Hedges The Company uses interest rate futures contracts and interest rate swap agreements as part of its overall strategies of managing the duration mismatch of assets and liabilities or the average life of certain asset portfolios to specified targets. Interest rate swap agreements are contracts with a counterparty to exchange interest rate payments of a differing character (e.g., fixed-rate payments exchanged for variable-rate payments) based on an underlying principal balance (notional principal). The net differential to be paid or received on interest rate swap agreements and currency rate swap agreements is accrued and recognized as a component of net investment income. The Company uses equity collar agreements to reduce its equity market exposure with respect to certain common stock investments that the Company holds. A collar consists of a written call option that limits the Company's potential for gain from appreciation in the stock price as well as a purchased put option that limits the Company's potential for loss from a decline in the stock price. Currency rate swap agreements are used to manage the Company's exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Currency rate swap agreements are contracts to exchange the currencies of two different countries at the same rate of exchange at specified future dates. 52 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company recognized a net loss of $0.3 million related to the ineffective portion of its fair value hedges, and a net gain of $0.1 million related to the portion of the hedging instruments that were excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, none of the Company's hedged firm commitments no longer qualified as fair value hedges. Cash Flow Hedges The Company used interest rate cap floor agreements to hedge the interest rate risk associated with minimum interest rate guarantees in certain of its life insurance and annuity businesses. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company recognized no gains or losses related to the ineffective portion of its cash flow hedges, and a net gain of $0.2 million related to the portion of the hedging instruments that was excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, none of the Company's hedged forecasted transactions no longer qualified as cash flow hedges. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, no amounts were reclassified from other accumulated comprehensive income to earnings and it is anticipated that no amounts will be reclassified from other accumulated comprehensive income to earnings within the next twelve months. The Company does not enter into hedging transaction for variable cash flows thus the Company currently has no maximum length for which variable cash flows are hedged. For the three month's ended March 31, 2001, none of the Company's cash flow hedges have been discontinued because of the probability that the original forecasted transaction would not occur by the end of the originally specified time period documented at inception of the hedging relationship. There was no transition adjustment for the adoption of the statement representing the accumulation in other comprehensive income of the effective portion of the Company's cash flow hedges as of January 1, 2001. There were no losses incurred for the effective portion of the change in fair value of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges and added to accumulated other comprehensive income. Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements, interest rate futures contracts, and interest rate cap and floor agreements to manage exposure to interest rates as described above under Fair Value Hedging without designating the derivatives as hedging instruments. 53 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The Board of Directors John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 2000, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholder's equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2000.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company (the Company) is a wholly- owned subsidiary of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (John Hancock or the Parent). The Company, domiciled in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, issues variable and universal life insurance policies, individual whole and term life policies and variable annuity contracts. Those policies primarily are marketed through John Hancock's sales organization, which includes a career agency system composed of Company-supported independent general agencies and a direct brokerage system that markets directly to external independent brokers. Policies are also sold through various unaffiliated securities broker-dealers and certain other financial institutions. Currently, the Company writes business in all states except New York. Pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization approved by the policyholders and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance, effective February 1, 2000, John Hancock converted from a mutual life insurance company to a stock life insurance company (i.e., demutualized) and became a wholly owned subsidiary of John Hancock Financial Services, Inc., which is a holding company. In connection with the reorganization, John Hancock changed its name to John Hancock Life Insurance Company. In addition, on February 1, 2000, John Hancock Financial Services, Inc. completed its initial public offering and 102 million shares of common stock were issued at an initial public offering price of $17 per share. Prior to 2000, the Company did not prepare its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and financial information on such basis currently is not readily available for earlier periods. Comparative financial statements prepared on a statutory-basis are included elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Investors Partner Life Insurance Company (IPL). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Investments In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", the Company is required to classify its investments into one of three categories: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading. The Company determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Fixed maturity investments include bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and redeemable preferred stock and are classified as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale. Bonds and mortgage-backed securities, which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost. Fixed maturity investments not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses related to available-for-sale securities are reflected in shareholder's equity, net of related amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and applicable taxes. The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included in investment income. The amortized cost of fixed maturity investments is adjusted for impairments in value deemed to be other than temporary. 60 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) For the mortgage-backed bond portion of the fixed maturity investment portfolio, the Company recognizes income using a constant effective yield based on anticipated prepayments and the estimated economic life of the securities. When actual prepayments differ significantly from anticipated prepayments, the effective yield is recalculated to reflect actual payments to date, and anticipated future payments and any resulting adjustment is included in net investment income. Equity securities include common stock and non-redeemable preferred stock. Equity securities that have readily determinable fair values are carried at fair value. For equity securities which the Company has classified as available-for- sale, unrealized gains and losses are reflected in shareholder's equity as described above. Impairments in value deemed to be other than temporary are reported as a component of realized investment gains (losses). Mortgage loans on real estate are carried at unpaid principal balances adjusted for amortization of premium or discount, less allowance for probable losses. When it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts of principal and interest due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage loan agreement, the loan is deemed to be impaired and a valuation allowance for probable losses is established. The valuation allowance is based on the present value of the expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate, or on the collateral value of the loan if the loan is collateral dependent. Any change to the valuation allowance for mortgage loans on real estate is reported as a component of realized investment gains (losses). Interest received on impaired mortgage loans on real estate is included in interest income in the period received. If foreclosure becomes probable, the measurement method used is collateral value. Foreclosed real estate is then recorded at the collateral's fair value at the date of foreclosure, which establishes a new cost basis. Investment real estate, which the Company has the intent to hold for the production of income, is carried at depreciated cost, using the straight-line method of depreciation, less adjustments for impairments in value. In those cases where it is determined that the carrying amount of investment real estate is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized based on the difference between the depreciated cost and fair value of the asset. The Company reports impairment losses as part of realized investment gains (losses). Real estate to be disposed of is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. Any changes to the valuation allowance for real estate to be disposed of is reported as a component of realized investment gains (losses). The Company does not depreciate real estate to be disposed of. Policy loans are carried at unpaid principal balances which approximate fair value. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost. Partnership and joint venture interests in which the Company does not have control or a majority ownership interest are recorded using the equity method of accounting and included in other invested assets. Realized investment gains and losses, other than those related to separate accounts for which the Company does not bear the investment risk, are determined on the basis of specific identification and are reported net of related amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company uses futures contracts, interest rate swap, cap and floor agreements, swaptions and currency rate swap agreements for other than trading purposes to hedge and manage its exposure to changes in interest rate levels and foreign exchange rate fluctuations and to manage duration mismatch of assets and liabilities. The Company also uses equity collar agreements to reduce its exposure to market fluctuations in certain equity securities. 61 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) The Company uses futures contracts principally to hedge risks associated with interest rate fluctuations on anticipated fixed income asset acquisitions. Futures contracts represent commitments to either purchase or sell securities at a specified future date and at a specified price or yield. The Company uses interest rate swap, cap and floor agreements and swaptions for the purpose of converting the interest rate characteristics (fixed or variable) of certain investments to more closely match its liabilities. Interest rate swap agreements are contracts with a counterparty to exchange interest rate payments of a differing character (e.g., fixed-rate payments exchanged for variable-rate payments) based on an underlying principal balance (notional principal) to hedge against interest rate changes. Interest rate cap and floor agreements are contracts with a counterparty which require the payment of a premium for the right to receive payments for the difference between the cap or floor interest rate and a market interest rate on specified future dates based on an underlying principal balance (notional principal) to hedge against rising and falling interest rates. Swaptions entitle the Company to receive settlement payments from other parties on specified expiration dates, contingent on future interest rates. The amount of such settlement payments, if any, is determined by the present value of the difference between the fixed rate on a market rate swap and the strike rate multiplied by the notional amount. Currency rate swap agreements are used to manage the Company's exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. Currency rate swap agreements are contracts to exchange the currencies of two different countries at the same rate of exchange at specified future dates. The Company invests in common stock that is subject to fluctuations from market value changes in stock prices. The Company sometimes seeks to reduce its market exposure to such holdings by entering into equity collar agreements. A collar consists of a call option that limits the Company's potential for gain from appreciation in the stock price as well as a put option that limits the Company's potential for loss from a decline in the stock price. Futures contracts are carried at fair value and require daily cash settlement. Changes in the fair value of futures contracts that qualify as hedges are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the hedged asset or liability. The net differential to be paid or received on interest rate swap agreements and currency rate swap agreements is accrued and recognized as a component of net investment income. The related amounts due to or from counterparties are included in accrued investment income receivable or payable. Premiums paid for interest rate cap and floor agreements and swaptions are deferred and amortized to net investment income on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreements. The unamortized premium is included in other assets. Amounts earned on interest rate cap and floor agreements and swaptions are recorded as an adjustment to net investment income. Settlements received on swaptions are deferred and amortized over the life of the hedged assets as an adjustment to yield. Interest rate swap, cap and floor agreements, swaptions and currency rate swap agreements which hedge instruments designated as available-for-sale are adjusted to fair value with the resulting unrealized gains and losses, net of related taxes, included in shareholder's equity. Equity collar agreements are carried at fair value and are included in other invested assets, with the resulting unrealized gains and losses included in realized investment gains (losses). Hedge accounting is applied after the Company determines that the items to be hedged expose it to interest or price risk, designates these financial instruments as hedges and assesses whether the instruments reduce the hedged risks through the measurement of changes in the value of the instruments and the items being hedged at both inception and throughout the hedge period. 62 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) From time to time, futures contracts, interest rate swaps, cap and floor agreements, swaptions and currency rate swap agreements are terminated. If the terminated position was accounted for as a hedge, realized gains or losses are deferred and amortized over the remaining lives of the hedged assets or liabilities. Realized and unrealized changes in fair value of derivatives designated with items that no longer exist or are no longer probable of occurring are recorded as a component of the gain or loss arising from the disposition of the designated item or included in income when it is determined that the item is no longer probable of occurring. Changes in the fair value of derivatives no longer effective as hedges are recognized in income from the date the derivative becomes ineffective until their expiration. Revenue Recognition Premiums from participating and non-participating traditional life insurance and annuity policies with life contingencies are recognized as income when due. Premiums from universal life and investment-type contracts are reported as deposits to policyholders' account balances. Revenues from these contracts consist of amounts assessed during the period against policyholders' account balances for mortality charges, policy administration charges and surrender charges. Premiums for contracts with a single premium or a limited number of premium payments, due over a significantly shorter period than the total period over which benefits are provided, are recorded in income when due. The portion of such premium that is not required to provide for all benefits and expenses is deferred and recognized in income in a constant relationship to insurance in force or, for annuities, the amount of expected future benefit payments. Future Policy Benefits and Policyholders' Funds Future policy benefits for participating traditional life insurance policies are based on the net level premium method. This net level premium reserve is calculated using the guaranteed mortality and dividend fund interest rates, which range from 4.5% to 5.0%. The liability for annual dividends represents the accrual of annual dividends earned. Settlement dividends are accrued in proportion to gross margins over the life of the contract. For non-participating traditional life insurance policies, future policy benefits are estimated using a net level premium method on the basis of actuarial assumptions as to mortality, persistency, interest and expenses established at policy issue. Assumptions established at policy issue as to mortality and persistency are based on the Company's experience, which, together with interest and expense assumptions, include a margin for adverse deviation. Benefit liabilities for annuities during the accumulation period are equal to accumulated contractholders' fund balances and after annuitization are equal to the present value of expected future payments. Interest rates used in establishing such liabilities range from 7.5% to 8.0% for life insurance liabilities and 3.5% to 10.3% for individual annuity liabilities. Policyholders' funds for universal life and investment-type products are equal to the policyholder account values before surrender charges. Policy benefits that are charged to expense include benefit claims incurred in the period in excess of related policy account balances and interest credited to policyholders' account balances. Interest crediting rates range from 3.0% to 9.0% for universal life products. Liabilities for unpaid claims and claim expenses include estimates of payments to be made on reported individual life claims and estimates of incurred but not reported claims based on historical claims development patterns. Estimates of future policy benefit reserves, claim reserves and expenses are reviewed continually and adjusted as necessary; such adjustments are reflected in current earnings. Although considerable variability is inherent in such estimates, management believes that future policy benefit reserves and unpaid claims and claims expense reserves are adequate. 63 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Participating Insurance Participating business represents approximately 16.3% of the Company's life insurance in force and 30.1% of life insurance premiums in 2000. The amount of policyholders' dividends to be paid is approved annually by the Company's Board of Directors. The determination of the amount of policyholder dividends is complex and varies by policy type. In general, the aggregate amount of policyholders' dividends is related to actual interest, mortality, morbidity, persistency and expense experience for the year and judgment as to the appropriate level of statutory surplus to be retained by the Company. Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs Costs that vary with, and are related primarily to, the production of new business have been deferred to the extent that they are deemed recoverable. Such costs include commissions, certain costs of policy issue and underwriting, and certain agency expenses. For participating traditional life insurance policies, such costs are being amortized over the life of the contracts at a constant rate based on the present value of the estimated gross margin amounts expected to be realized over the lives of the contracts. Estimated gross margin amounts include anticipated premiums and investment results less claims and administrative expenses, changes in the net level premium reserve and expected annual policyholder dividends. For universal life insurance contracts and investment- type products, such costs are being amortized generally in proportion to the present value of expected gross profits arising principally from surrender charges and investment results, and mortality and expense margins. The effects on the amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs of revisions to estimated gross margins and profits are reflected in earnings in the period such estimated gross margins and profits are revised. For non-participating term life insurance products, such costs are being amortized over the premium-paying period of the related policies using assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves. Amortization expense was $30.2 million in 2000. Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs is allocated to: (1) realized investment gains and losses for those products that realized gains and losses have a direct impact on the amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs; (2) unrealized investment gains and losses, net of tax, to provide for the effect on the deferred policy acquisition cost asset that would result from the realization of unrealized gains and losses on assets backing participating traditional life insurance and universal life and investment-type contracts; and (3) a separate component of benefits and expenses to reflect amortization related to the gross margins or profits, excluding realized gains and losses, relating to policies and contracts in force. Realized investment gains and losses related to certain products have a direct impact on the amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs as such gains and losses affect the amount and timing of profit emergence. Accordingly, to the extent that such amortization results from realized gains and losses, management believes that presenting realized investment gains and losses net of related amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs provides information useful in evaluating the operating performance of the Company. This presentation may not be comparable to presentations made by other insurers. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and all highly liquid debt investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. 64 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Separate Accounts Separate account assets and liabilities reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet represent funds that are administered and invested by the Company to meet specific investment objectives of the contractholders. Investment income and investment gains and losses generally accrue directly to such contractholders who bear the investment risk, subject in some cases to minimum guaranteed rates. The assets of each account are legally segregated and are not subject to claims that arise out of any other business of the Company. Separate account assets are reported at fair value. Deposits, net investment income and realized investment gains and losses of separate accounts are not included in the revenues of the Company. Fees charged to contractholders, principally mortality, policy administration and surrender charges, are included in universal life and investment-type product charges. Reinsurance The Company utilizes reinsurance agreements to provide for greater diversification of business, allow management to control exposure to potential losses arising from large risks and provide additional capacity for growth. Assets and liabilities related to reinsurance ceded contracts are reported on a gross basis. The accompanying statement of income reflects premiums, benefits and settlement expenses net of reinsurance ceded. Reinsurance premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, benefits and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Federal Income Taxes The provision for federal income taxes includes amounts currently payable or recoverable and deferred income taxes, computed under the liability method, resulting from temporary differences between the tax basis and book basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that an amount will not be realized. Foreign Currency Translation Gains or losses on foreign currency transactions are reflected in earnings. Accounting Changes and New Accounting Principles Adopted SOP 98-7, "Deposit Accounting: Accounting for Insurance and Reinsurance Contracts That Do Not Transfer Insurance Risk," provides guidance on how to account for insurance and reinsurance contracts that do not transfer insurance risk under a method referred to as deposit accounting. SOP 98-7 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. SOP 98-7 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. 65 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement 133." This Statement amends SFAS No. 133 to defer its effective date for one year, to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities--an amendment of SFAS No. 133." This Statement makes certain changes in the hedging provisions of SFAS No. 133, and is effective concurrent with SFAS No. 133. As amended, SFAS No. 133 requires all derivatives to be recognized on the balance sheet at fair value, and establishes special accounting for the following three types of hedges: fair value hedges, cash flow hedges, and hedges of foreign currency exposures of net investments in foreign operations. Special accounting for qualifying hedges provides for matching the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the corresponding changes in value of the hedged item. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be recognized immediately in earnings and will be included in net realized and other investment gains. The adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended, will result in an increase in other comprehensive income of $0.5 million (net of tax of $0.3 million) as of January 1, 2001 that will be accounted for as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. In addition, the adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended, will result in an increase to earnings of $4.9 million (net of tax of $2.7 million) as of January 1, 2001, that will be accounted for as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. The Company believes that its current risk management philosophy will remain largely unchanged after adoption of the Statement. SFAS No. 133, as amended, precludes the designation of held-to-maturity fixed maturity investment securities as hedged items in hedging relationships where the hedged risk is interest rates. As a result, in connection with the adoption of the Statement and consistent with the provisions of the Statement, on January 1, 2001, the Company will reclassify approximately $550.3 million of its held-to-maturity fixed maturity investment portfolio to the available-for- sale category. This will result in an additional increase in other comprehensive income of $4.7 million (net of tax of $2.5 million) as of January 1, 2001. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 (SAB 101), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB 101 clarifies the SEC staff's views on applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. In March 2000, the SEC issued an amendment, SAB 101A, which deferred the effective date of SAB 101. In June 2000, the SEC issued a second amendment, SAB 101B, which deferred the effective date of SAB 101 to no later than the fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1999. The Company adopted SAB 101 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operation or financial position. 66 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Codification In March 1998, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) adopted codified statutory accounting principles (Codification) effective January 1, 2001. Codification changes prescribed statutory accounting practices and results in changes to the accounting practices that the Company and its domestic life insurance subsidiary will use to prepare their statutory-basis financial statements. The states of domicile of the Company and its domestic life insurance subsidiary have adopted Codification as the prescribed basis of accounting on which domestic insurers must report their statutory-basis results effective January 1, 2001. The cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles adopted to conform to the requirements of Codification will be reported as an adjustment to surplus as of January 1, 2001. Management believes that, although the implementation of Codification will have a negative impact on the Company and its domestic life insurance subsidiary's statutory-basis capital and surplus, the Company and its domestic life insurance subsidiary will remain in compliance with all regulatory and contractual obligations. Note 2. Transactions with Parent John Hancock provides the Company with personnel, property and facilities in carrying out certain of its corporate functions. John Hancock annually determines a fee for these services and facilities based on a number of criteria, which were revised in 2000 to reflect continuing changes in the Company's operations. The amount of the service fee charged to the Company was $170.6 million, which has been included in other operating costs and expenses. As of December 31, 2000, the Company owed John Hancock $56.9 million related to these services, which is included in other liabilities. John Hancock has guaranteed that, if necessary, it will make additional capital contributions to prevent the Company's shareholder's equity from declining below $1.0 million. The Company has a modified coinsurance agreement with John Hancock to reinsure 50% of 1994 through 2000 issues of flexible premium variable life insurance and scheduled premium variable life insurance policies. In connection with this agreement, John Hancock transferred $24.2 million of cash for tax, commission, and expense allowances to the Company, which increased the Company's net income by $0.9 million. The Company has a modified coinsurance agreement with John Hancock to reinsure 50% of the Company's 1995 in-force block and 50% of 1996 and all future issue years of certain retail annuity contracts. In connection with this agreement, the Company is holding a deposit liability of $102.2 million as of December 31, 2000. This agreement had no impact on the Company's net gain from operations. Effective January 1, 1997, the Company entered into a stop-loss agreement with John Hancock to reinsure mortality claims in excess of 100% of expected mortality claims for all policies that are not reinsured under any other indemnity agreement. In connection with the agreement, John Hancock received $1.0 million from the Company in 2000. This agreement increased the Company's net gain from operations in 2000 by $1.1 million. 67 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 3.

The Company participates in a securities lending program for the purpose of enhancing income on securities held. At December 31, 2000, $1.4 million of the Company's bonds and stocks, at market value, were on loan to various brokers/dealers, but were fully collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities in an account held in trust for the Company. The market value of the loaned securities is monitored on a daily basis, and the Company obtains additional collateral when deemed appropriate. Mortgage loans on real estate are evaluated periodically as part of the Company's loan review procedures and are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The allowance for losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated probable credit losses that exist at the balance sheet date. Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for losses is based on the Company's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay (including the timing of future payments), the estimated value of the underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimating the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant change. 70 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Note 3.

Generally, the terms of the restructured mortgage loans call for the Company to receive some form or combination of an equity participation in the underlying collateral, excess cash flows or an effective yield at the maturity of the loans sufficient to meet the original terms of the loans. Restructured commercial mortgage loans aggregated $3.4 million as of December 31, 2000.The expected gross interest income that would have been recorded had the loans been current in accordance with the original loan agreements and the actual interest income recorded were as follows: Year Ended December 31 2000 --------------- (in millions) Expected...................................................... 0.34 Actual........................................................ 0.27 71 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 3.

Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and partnerships accounted for by using the equity method of accounting totaled $0.4 million at December 31, 2000. Total combined assets of these joint ventures and partnerships were $28.5 million (consisting primarily of investments), and total combined liabilities were $8.7 million (including $2.9 million of non-recourse notes payable to banks) at December 31, 2000. Total combined revenues and expenses of such joint ventures and partnerships were $77.6 million and $76.3 million, respectively, resulting in $1.3 million of total combined income from operations before income taxes in 2000. Net investment income on investments accounted for on the equity method totaled $0.4 million in 2000. 72 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 4. Derivatives The notional amounts, carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company's derivative instruments are as follows:
Number of Contracts/ Assets (Liabilities) Notional --------------------- Amounts 2000 ---------- --------------------- Carrying Fair 2000 Value Value ---------- ----------- ----------- (in millions) Asset Hedges: Futures contracts to sell securities............ 6 -- -- Interest rate swap agreements................... Notional....................................... $600.0 -- (10.8) Average fixed rate--paid....................... 6.38% -- -- Average float rate--received................... 6.69% -- -- Currency rate swap agreements................... $ 22.3 (0.6) (0.6) Equity collar agreements........................ -- 0.4 0.4 Liability Hedges: Futures contracts to acquire securities......... 43 0.1 0.1 Interest rate swap agreements...................

Financial futures contracts are used principally to hedge risks associated with interest rate fluctuations on anticipated fixed income asset acquisitions. The Company is subject to the risks associated with changes in the value of the underlying securities; however, such changes in value generally are offset by opposite changes in the value of the hedged items. The contracts or notional amounts of the contracts represent the extent of the Company's involvement but not the future cash requirements, as the Company intends to close the open positions prior to settlement. The futures contracts expire in March 2001. The interest rate swap agreements expire in 2001 to 2011. The interest rate cap agreements expire in 2006 to 2007 and interest rate floor agreements expire in 2010. The currency rate swap agreements expire in 2006 to 2015. The equity collar agreements expire in 2005. Fair values for futures contracts are based on quoted market prices. Fair values for interest rate swap, cap and floor agreements, swaptions, and currency swap agreements and equity collar agreements are based on current settlement values. The current settlement values are based on quoted market prices, which utilize pricing models or formulas using current assumptions. 73 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 4. Derivatives (continued) The Company's exposure to credit risk is the risk of loss from a counterparty failing to perform to the terms of the contract. The Company continually monitors its position and the credit ratings of the counterparties to these derivative instruments. To limit exposure associated with counterparty nonperformance on interest rate and currency swap agreements, the Company enters into master netting agreements with its counterparties. The Company believes the risk of incurring losses due to nonperformance by its counterparties is remote and that such losses, if any, would be immaterial. Futures contracts trade on organized exchanges and, therefore, have minimal credit risk. Note 5. Income Taxes The Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of John Hancock Financial Services, Inc. The federal income taxes of the Company are allocated on a separate return basis with certain adjustments. The components of income taxes were as follows: Year Ended December 31 2000 --------------- (in millions) Current taxes: Federal..................................................... $15.2 Foreign..................................................... 0.6 ----- 15.8 Deferred taxes: Federal..................................................... 28.0 Foreign..................................................... -- ----- 28.0 ----- Total income taxes......................................... $43.8 ===== A reconciliation of income taxes computed by applying the federal income tax rate to income before income taxes and the consolidated income tax expense charged to operations follows: Year Ended December 31 2000 --------------- (in millions) Tax at 35%................................................... $50.1 Add (deduct): Equity base tax............................................. (5.6) Tax credits................................................. (0.6) Foreign taxes............................................... 0.6 Tax exempt investment income................................ (0.7) ----- Total income taxes......................................... $43.8 ===== 74 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 5. Income Taxes (continued) The significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows: December 31 2000 --------------- (in millions) Deferred tax assets: Policy reserve adjustments.................................. $ 74.6 Other postretirement benefits............................... 23.3 Book over tax basis of investments.......................... 7.8 Interest.................................................... 7.5 Unrealized losses........................................... 1.4 ------ Total deferred tax assets.................................. 114.6 ------ Deferred tax liabilities: Deferred policy acquisition costs........................... 199.1 Depreciation................................................ 1.8 Basis in partnerships....................................... 0.4 Market discount on bonds.................................... 0.6 Other....................................................... 9.5 ------ Total deferred tax liabilities............................. 211.4 ------ Net deferred tax liabilities............................... $ 96.8 ====== The Company made income tax payments of $62.9 million in 2000. Note 6. Debt and Line of Credit At December 31, 2000, the Company had a line of credit with John Hancock Capital Corporation, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of John Hancock, totaling $250.0 million. John Hancock Capital Corporation will commit, when requested, to loan funds at prevailing interest rates as agreed to from time to time between John Hancock Capital Corporation and the Company. At December 31, 2000, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the agreement. Note 7. Reinsurance The effect of reinsurance on premiums written and earned was as follows: 2000 Premiums ----------------- Written Earned ------- -------- (in millions) Life Insurance: Direct..................................................... $34.1 $34.1 Ceded...................................................... (5.5) (5.5) ----- ----- Net life insurance premiums............................... $28.6 $28.6 ===== ===== For the year ended December 31, 2000, benefits to policyholders under life ceded reinsurance contracts were $3.0 million. 75 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 7. Reinsurance (continued) Reinsurance ceded contracts do not relieve the Company from its obligations to policyholders. The Company remains liable to its policyholders for the portion reinsured to the extent that any reinsurer does not meet its obligations for reinsurance ceded to it under the reinsurance agreements. Failure of the reinsurers to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company; consequently, estimates are established for amounts deemed or estimated to be uncollectible. To minimize its exposure to significant losses from reinsurance insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk arising from similar characteristics of the reinsurer. Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies The Company has extended commitments to purchase long-term bonds, issue real estate mortgages and purchase other assets totaling $37.0 million, $6.3 million and $17.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2000. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of borrowers under long-term bond commitments and requires collateral as deemed necessary. If funded, loans related to real estate mortgages would be fully collateralized by the related properties. The estimated fair value of the commitments described above was $62.9 million at December 31, 2000. The majority of these commitments expire in 2001. In the normal course of its business operations, the Company is involved with litigation from time to time with claimants, beneficiaries and others, and a number of litigation matters were pending as of December 31, 2000. It is the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, that the ultimate liability with respect to these claims, if any, will not materially affect the financial position or results of operations of the Company. During 1997, John Hancock entered into a court-approved settlement relating to a class action lawsuit involving certain individual life insurance policies sold from 1979 through 1996. In entering into the settlement, John Hancock specifically denied any wrongdoing. The reserve held in connection with the settlement to provide for relief to class members and for legal and administrative costs associated with the settlement amounted to $66.3 million at December 31, 2000. No costs were incurred in 2000. The estimated reserve is based on a number of factors, including the estimated cost per claim and the estimated costs to administer the claims. During 1996, management determined that it was probable that a settlement would occur and that a minimum loss amount could be reasonably estimated. Accordingly, the Company recorded its best estimate based on the information available at the time. The terms of the settlement agreement were negotiated throughout 1997 and approved by the court on December 31, 1997. In accordance with the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company contacted class members during 1998 to determine the actual type of relief to be sought by class members. The majority of responses from class members were received by the fourth quarter of 1998. The type of relief sought by class members differed from the Company's previous estimates, primarily due to additional outreach activities by regulatory authorities during 1998 encouraging class members to consider alternative dispute resolution relief. In 1999, the Company updated its estimate of the cost of claims subject to alternative dispute resolution relief and revised its reserve estimate accordingly. Given the uncertainties associated with estimating the reserve, it is reasonably possible that the final cost of the settlement could differ materially from the amounts presently provided for by the Company. John Hancock and the Company will continue to update their estimate of the final cost of the settlement as claims are processed and more specific information is developed, particularly as the actual cost of the claims subject to alternative dispute resolution becomes available. However, based on information available at the time, and the uncertainties associated with the final claim processing and alternative dispute resolution, the range of any additional costs related to the settlement cannot be estimated with precision. If the Company's share of the settlement increases, John Hancock will contribute additional capital to the Company so that the Company's total shareholder's equity would not be impacted. 76 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 9. Shareholder's Equity (a) Other Comprehensive Loss The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss are as follows:
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income --------------- Balance at January 1, 2000..............................................................

77 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 9. Shareholder's Equity (continued) (b) Statutory Results The Company and its domestic insurance subsidiary prepare their statutory-basis financial statements in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the state of domicile. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include state laws, regulations and administrative rules, as well as guidance published by the NAIC. Permitted accounting practices encompass all accounting practices that are not prescribed by the sources noted above. Since 1988, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance has provided the Company with approval to recognize a pension plan prepaid expense in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions." The Company furnishes the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance with an actuarial certification of the prepaid expense computation on an annual basis. The pension plan prepaid expense amounted to $55.6 million at December 31, 2000. Statutory net income and surplus include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Investors Partners Life Insurance Company. 2000 --------------- (in millions) Statutory net income......................................... $ 26.6 Statutory surplus............................................ 527.2 Massachusetts has enacted laws governing the payment of dividends by insurers. Under Massachusetts insurance law, no insurer may pay any shareholder dividends from any source other than statutory unassigned funds without the prior approval of Massachusetts Commissioner of Insurance. Massachusetts law also limits the dividends an insurer may pay in any twelve month period, without the prior permission of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Insurance Commissioner, to the greater of (i) 10% of its statutory policyholders' surplus as of the preceding December 31 or (ii) the individual company's statutory net gain from operations for the preceding calendar year, if such insurer is a life company. Note 10. Segment Information The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units offering different products and services. The reportable segments are managed separately, as they focus on different products, markets or distribution channels. Retail-Protection Segment. Offers a variety of individual life insurance, including participating whole life, term life, universal life and variable life insurance. Products are distributed through multiple distribution channels, including insurance agents and brokers and alternative distribution channels that include banks, financial planners, direct marketing and the Internet. Retail-Asset Gathering Segment. Offers individual annuities, consisting of fixed deferred annuities, fixed immediate annuities, single premium immediate annuities, and variable annuities. This segment distributes its products through distribution channels including insurance agents and brokers affiliated with the Company, securities brokerage firms, financial planners, and banks. 78 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 10. Segment Information (continued) The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Allocations of net investment income are based on the amount of assets allocated to each segment. Other costs and operating expenses are allocated to each segment based on a review of the nature of such costs, cost allocations utilizing time studies, and other relevant allocation methodologies. Management of the Company evaluates performance based on segment after-tax operating income, which excludes the effect of net realized investment gains or losses and unusual or non-recurring events and transactions. Segment after-tax operating income is determined by adjusting GAAP net income for net realized investment gains and losses, including gains and losses on disposals of businesses and certain other items which management believes are not indicative of overall operating trends. While these items may be significant components in understanding and assessing the Company's financial performance, management believes that the presentation of after-tax operating income enhances its understanding of the Company's results of operations by highlighting net income attributable to the normal, recurring operations of the business. Amounts reported as segment adjustments in the tables below primarily relate to: (i) certain realized investment gains (losses), net of related amortization adjustment for deferred policy acquisition costs; (ii) benefits to policyholders and expenses incurred relating to the settlement of a class action lawsuit against the Company involving certain individual life insurance policies sold from 1979 through 1996; (iii) restructuring costs related to our distribution systems and retail operations; (iv) the surplus tax on mutual life insurance companies that was allocated by John Hancock to the Company; and (v) a charge for certain one time costs associated with John Hancock's demutualization process. 79 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 10.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments The following discussion outlines the methodologies and assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Company's financial instruments. The aggregate fair value amounts presented herein do not represent the underlying value of the Company and, accordingly, care should be exercised in drawing conclusions about the Company's business or financial condition based on the fair value information presented herein. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company to determine the fair values of financial instruments: Fair values for publicly traded fixed maturities (including redeemable preferred stocks) are obtained from an independent pricing service. Fair values for private placement securities and fixed maturities not provided by the independent pricing service are estimated by the Company by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market rate applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of the investments. The fair value for equity securities is based on quoted market prices. The fair value for mortgage loans on real estate is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates adjusted to reflect the credit characteristics of the loans. Mortgage loans with similar characteristics and credit risks are aggregated into qualitative categories for purposes of the fair value calculations. Fair values for impaired mortgage loans are measured based either on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral for loans that are collateral dependent. The carrying amount in the balance sheet for policy loans, short-term investments and cash and cash equivalents approximates their respective fair values. The fair value for fixed-rate deferred annuities is the cash surrender value, which represents the account value less applicable surrender charges. Fair values for immediate annuities without life contingencies are estimated based on discounted cash flow calculations using current market rates. The Company's derivatives include futures contracts, interest rate swap, cap and floor agreements, swaptions, currency rate swap agreements and equity collar agreements. Fair values for these contracts are based on current settlement values. These values are based on quoted market prices for the financial futures contracts and brokerage quotes that utilize pricing models or formulas using current assumptions for all swaps and other agreements. The fair value for commitments approximates the amount of the initial commitment. 81 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued) The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments: December 31 2000 -------------------------- Carrying Value Fair Value -------------- ------------ (in millions) Assets: Fixed maturities: Held-to-maturity.............................. $ 715.4 $ 686.8 Available-for-sale............................ 1,011.8 1,011.8 Equity securities: Available-for-sale............................ 8.1 8.1 Mortgage loans on real estate.................. 554.8 574.2 Policy loans................................... 334.2 334.2 Short-term investments......................... 21.7 21.7 Cash and cash equivalents...................... 277.3 277.3 Liabilities: Fixed rate deferred and immediate annuities..... 63.8 60.4 Derivatives assets/(liabilities) relating to: Futures contracts, net........................ 0.1 0.1 Interest rate swap agreements.................

These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company presents its financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance, which practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The variances between such practices and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the effects on the accompanying financial statements also are described in Note 1. In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the financial position of John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company at December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000. However, in our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company at December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. /S/ ERNST & YOUNG LLP Boston, Massachusetts March 9, 2001 83 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY STATUTORY-BASIS STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the statutory-basis financial statements. 86 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Practices John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company (the Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (John Hancock). The Company, domiciled in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, writes variable and universal life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts. Those policies primarily are marketed through John Hancock's sales organization, which includes a career agency system composed of Company-supported independent general agencies and a direct brokerage system that markets directly to external independent brokers. Policies also are sold through various unaffiliated securities broker-dealers and certain other financial institutions. Currently, the Company writes business in all states except New York. Pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization approved by the policyholders and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance, effective February 1, 2000, John Hancock converted from a mutual life insurance company to a stock life insurance company (i.e., demutualized) and became a wholly owned subsidiary of John Hancock Financial Services, Inc., which is a holding company. In connection with the reorganization, John Hancock changed its name to John Hancock Life Insurance Company. In addition, on February 1, 2000, John Hancock Financial Services, Inc. completed its initial public offering and 102 million shares of common stock were issued at an initial public offering price of $17 per share. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein. Basis of Presentation: The financial statements have been prepared using accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance and in conformity with the practices of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), which practices differ from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The significant differences from GAAP include:(1) policy acquisition costs are charged to expense as incurred rather than deferred and amortized in relation to future estimated gross profits; (2) policy reserves are based on statutory mortality, morbidity, and interest requirements without consideration of withdrawals and Company experience; (3) certain assets designated as "nonadmitted assets" are excluded from the balance sheet by direct charges to surplus; (4) reinsurance recoverables are netted against reserves and claim liabilities rather than reflected as an asset; (5) bonds held as available-for-sale are recorded at amortized cost or market value as determined by the NAIC rather than at fair value; (6) an Asset Valuation Reserve and Interest Maintenance Reserve as prescribed by the NAIC are not calculated under GAAP. Under GAAP, realized capital gains and losses are reported in the income statement on a pretax basis as incurred. The carrying values of investment securities and real estate are reduced through the income statement when there has been a decline in value deemed other than temporary and mortgage loan valuation allowances, if necessary, are established when the Company determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts of principal and interest due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage loan agreement; (7) investments in affiliates are carried at their net equity value with changes in value being recorded directly to unassigned deficit rather than consolidated in the financial statements; (8) no provision is made for the deferred income tax effects of temporary differences between book and tax basis reporting; and (9) certain items, including modifications to required policy reserves resulting from changes in actuarial assumptions, are recorded directly to unassigned deficit rather than being reflected in income. GAAP net income for the year ended December 31, 2000 and GAAP shareholder's equity as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 were $99.4 million, $805.6 million and $695.0 million, respectively. The effects of variances from GAAP on net income for the year ended December 31, 1999 have not been determined but are presumed to be material. 87 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Practices (continued) The significant accounting practices of the Company are as follows: Permitted Statutory Accounting Practices: In March 1998, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) adopted codified statutory accounting principles (Codification) effective January 1, 2001. Codification changes prescribed statutory accounting practices and results in changes to the accounting practices that the Company will use to prepare its statutory-basis financial statements. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance has adopted Codification as the prescribed basis of accounting on which domestic insurers must report their statutory-basis results effective January 1, 2001. The cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles adopted to conform to the requirements of Codification will be reported as an adjustment to surplus as of January 1, 2001. Management believes that, although the implementation of Codification will have a negative impact on the Company's statutory-basis capital and surplus, the Company will remain in compliance with all regulatory and contractual obligations. Revenues and Expenses: Premium revenues are recognized over the premium-paying period of the policies whereas expenses, including the acquisition costs of new business, are charged to operations as incurred and policyholder dividends are provided as paid or accrued. Cash and Temporary Cash Investments: Cash includes currency on hand and demand deposits with financial institutions. Temporary cash investments are short-term, highly-liquid investments both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near maturity that there is insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Valuation of Assets: General account investments are carried at amounts determined on the following bases: Bond and stock values are carried as prescribed by the NAIC; bonds generally at amortized amounts or cost, preferred stocks generally at cost and common stocks at fair value. The discount or premium on bonds is amortized using the interest method. Investments in affiliates are included on the statutory equity method. Loan-backed bonds and structured securities are valued at amortized cost using the interest method including anticipated prepayments. Prepayment assumptions are obtained from broker dealer surveys or internal estimates and are based on the current interest rate and economic environment. The retrospective adjustment method is used to value all such securities except for interest-only securities, which are valued using the prospective method. The net interest effect of interest rate and currency rate swap transactions is recorded as an adjustment of interest income as incurred. The initial cost of interest rate cap and floor agreements is amortized to net investment income over the life of the related agreement. Gains and losses on financial futures contracts used as hedges against interest rate fluctuations are deferred and recognized in income over the period being hedged. Net premiums related to equity collar positions are amortized into income on a straight-line basis over the term of the collars. The interest rate cap and floor agreements and collars are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value reflected directly in unassigned deficit. Mortgage loans are carried at outstanding principal balance or amortized cost. Investment real estate is carried at depreciated cost, less encumbrances. Depreciation on investment real estate is recorded on a straight-line basis. Accumulated depreciation amounted to $2.5 million in 2000, $1.9 million in 1999, and $3.0 million in 1998. 88 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Practices (continued) Real estate acquired in satisfaction of debt and real estate held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Policy loans are carried at outstanding principal balance, not in excess of policy cash surrender value. Asset Valuation and Interest Maintenance Reserves: The Asset Valuation Reserve (AVR) is computed in accordance with the prescribed NAIC formula and represents a provision for possible fluctuations in the value of bonds, equity securities, mortgage loans, real estate and other invested assets. Changes to the AVR are charged or credited directly to the unassigned deficit. The Company also records the NAIC prescribed Interest Maintenance Reserve (IMR) that represents that portion of the after tax net accumulated unamortized realized capital gains and losses on sales of fixed income securities, principally bonds and mortgage loans, attributable to changes in the general level of interest rates. Such gains and losses are deferred and amortized into income over the remaining expected lives of the investments sold. At December 31, 2000, the IMR, net of 2000 amortization of $1.6 million, amounted to $4.2 million, which is included in other general account obligations. The corresponding 1999 amounts were $2.3 million and $7.4 million, respectively, and the corresponding 1998 amounts were $2.4 and $10.7 million, respectively. Goodwill: The excess of cost over the statutory book value of the net assets of life insurance business acquired was $6.3 million, $8.9 million, and $11.4 million at December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and generally is amortized over a ten-year period using a straight-line method. Separate Accounts: Separate account assets and liabilities reported in the accompanying statements of financial position represent funds that are separately administered, principally for variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, and for which the contractholder, rather than the Company, generally bears the investment risk. Separate account obligations are intended to be satisfied from separate account assets and not from assets of the general account. Separate accounts generally are reported at fair value. The operations of the separate accounts are not included in the statement of operations; however, income earned on amounts initially invested by the Company in the formation of new separate accounts is included in other income. Fair Value Disclosure of Financial Instruments: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 107, "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about certain financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the statement of financial position, for which it is practicable to estimate the value. In situations where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. SFAS No. 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Therefore, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company. See Note 11. The methods and assumptions utilized by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments are as follows: The carrying amounts reported in the statement of financial position for cash and temporary cash investments approximate their fair values. Fair values for public bonds are obtained from an independent pricing service. Fair values for private placement securities and publicly traded bonds not provided by the independent pricing service are estimated by the Company by discounting expected future cash flows using current market rates applicable to the yield, credit quality and maturity of the investments. The fair values for common and preferred stocks, other than its subsidiary investments, which are carried at equity values, are based on quoted market prices. 89 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Practices (continued) Fair values for futures contracts are based on quoted market prices. Fair values for interest rate swap, cap agreements, and currency swap agreements are based on current settlement values. The current settlement values are based on brokerage quotes that utilize pricing models or formulas using current assumptions. The fair value for mortgage loans is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates adjusted to reflect the credit characteristics of the underlying loans. Mortgage loans with similar characteristics and credit risks are aggregated into qualitative categories for purposes of the fair value calculations. The carrying amount in the statement of financial position for policy loans approximates their fair value. The fair value for outstanding commitments to purchase long-term bonds and issue real estate mortgages is estimated using a discounted cash flow method incorporating adjustments for the difference in the level of interest rates between the dates the commitments were made and December 31, 2000. Capital Gains and Losses: Realized capital gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method. Realized capital gains and losses, net of taxes and amounts transferred to the IMR, are included in net gain or loss. Unrealized gains and losses, which consist of market value and book value adjustments, are shown as adjustments to the unassigned deficit. Policy Reserves: Life reserves are developed by actuarial methods and are determined based on published tables using statutorily specified interest rates and valuation methods that will provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the minimum or guaranteed policy cash values or the amounts required by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Division of Insurance. Reserves for variable life insurance policies are maintained principally on the modified preliminary term method using the 1958 and 1980 Commissioner's Standard Ordinary (CSO) mortality tables, with an assumed interest rate of 4% for policies issued prior to May 1, 1983 and 4 1/2% for policies issued on or thereafter. Reserves for single premium policies are determined by the net single premium method using the 1958 CSO mortality table, with an assumed interest rate of 4%. Reserves for universal life policies issued prior to 1985 are equal to the gross account value which at all times exceeds minimum statutory requirements. Reserves for universal life policies issued from 1985 through 1988 are maintained at the greater of the Commissioner's Reserve Valuation Method (CRVM) using the 1958 CSO mortality table, with 4 1/2% interest or the cash surrender value. Reserves for universal life policies issued after 1988 and for flexible variable policies are maintained using the greater of the cash surrender value or the CRVM method with the 1980 CSO mortality table and 5 1/2% interest for policies issued from 1988 through 1992; 5% interest for policies issued in 1993 and 1994; and 4 1/2% interest for policies issued in 1995 through 2000. Federal Income Taxes: Federal income taxes are reported in the financial statements based on amounts determined to be payable as a result of operations within the current accounting period. The operations of the Company are consolidated with John Hancock in filing a consolidated federal income tax return for the affiliated group. The federal income taxes of the Company are allocated on a separate return basis with certain adjustments. The Company made federal income tax payments of $65.1 million in 2000, $10.6 million in 1999, and $38.2 million in 1998. Income before taxes differs from taxable income principally due to tax-exempt investment income, the limitation placed on the tax deductibility of policyholder dividends, accelerated depreciation, differences in policy reserves for tax return and financial statement purposes, capitalization of policy acquisition expenses for tax purposes and other adjustments prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code. 90 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 1. Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Practices (continued) Amounts for disputed tax issues relating to the prior years are charged or credited directly to policyholders' contingency reserve. Adjustments to Policy Reserves: From time to time, the Company finds it appropriate to modify certain required policy reserves because of changes in actuarial assumptions. Reserve modifications resulting from such determinations are recorded directly to stockholder's equity. No such refinements were made during 2000, 1999 or 1998. Reinsurance: Premiums, commissions, expense reimbursements, benefits and reserves related to reinsured business are accounted for on bases consistent with those used in accounting for the original policies issued and the terms of the reinsurance contracts. Premiums ceded to other companies have been reported as a reduction of premium income. Amounts applicable to reinsurance ceded for future policy benefits, unearned premium reserves and claim liabilities have been reported as reductions of these items. Note 2. Investment in Affiliate The Company owns all outstanding shares of Investors Partner Life Insurance Company (IPL). IPL manages a block of single premium whole life insurance business and began marketing term life and variable universal life products through brokers in 1999. Summarized statutory-basis financial information for IPL for 2000, 1999 and 1998 is as follows:

Note 5. Transactions With Parent John Hancock provides the Company with personnel, property and facilities in carrying out certain of its corporate functions. John Hancock annually determines a fee for these services and facilities based on a number of criteria which were revised in 2000, 1999 and 1998 to reflect continuing changes in the Company's operations. The amount of the service fee charged to the Company was $162.2 million, $188.3 million, $157.5 million, in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, which has been included in insurance and investment expenses. John Hancock has guaranteed that, if necessary, it will make additional capital contributions to prevent the Company's stockholder's equity from declining below $1.0 million. The service fee charged to the Company by John Hancock includes $0.7 million, $0.2 million, and $0.7 million in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, representing the portion of the provision for retiree benefit plans determined under the accrual method, including a provision for the 1993 transition liability which is being amortized over twenty years, that was allocated to the Company. John Hancock allocates a portion of the activity related to its defined benefit pension plans to the Company. The pension plan prepaid expense allocated to the Company amounted to $55.0 million and $41.9 million in 2000 and 1999, respectively. Since 1988, the Massachusetts Division of Insurance has provided the Company with approval to recognize the pension plan prepaid expense, if any, in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions." The Company furnishes the Division of Insurance with an actuarial certification of the prepaid expense computation on an annual basis. 92 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 5. Transactions With Parent (continued) The Company has a modified coinsurance agreement with John Hancock to reinsure 50% of 1994 through 2000 issues of flexible premium variable life insurance and scheduled premium variable life insurance policies. In connection with this agreement, John Hancock transferred $24.2 million, $44.5 million, and $4.9 million of cash for tax, commission, and expense allowances to the Company, which decreased the Company's net gain from operations by $0.9 million in 2000, and increased the Company's net gain from operations by$20.6 million, and $22.2 million in 1999, and 1998, respectively. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company entered into a modified coinsurance agreement with John Hancock to reinsure 50% of the 1995 inforce block and 50% of 1996 and all future issue years of certain variable annuity contracts (Independence Preferred, Declaration, Independence 2000, MarketPlace, and Revolution). In connection with this agreement, the Company received a net cash payment of $17.4 million, $40.0 million, and $12.7 million in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, for surrender benefits, tax, reserve increase, commission, expense allowances and premium. This agreement increased the Company's net gain from operations by $5.6 million, $26.9 million, and $8.4 million in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. Effective January 1, 1997, the Company entered into a stop-loss agreement with John Hancock to reinsure mortality claims in excess of 100% of expected mortality claims in 2000, 1999 and 1998 for all policies that are not reinsured under any other indemnity agreement. In connection with the agreement, John Hancock received $1.0 million, $0.8 million, and $1.0 million in 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively, for mortality claims to the Company. This agreement decreased the Company's net gain from operations by $1.1 million in 2000 and $0.5 million in both 1999 and 1998. The Company had a $200.0 million line of credit with an affiliate, John Hancock Capital Corp. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under this agreement. 93 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 6.

Gross gains of $0.9 million in 2000, $0.3 million in 1999, and $3.4 million in 1998 and gross losses of $3.0 million in 2000, $4.0 million in 1999 and $0.7 million in 1998 were realized from the sale of bonds. At December 31, 2000, bonds with an admitted asset value of $9.6 million were on deposit with state insurance departments to satisfy regulatory requirements. The cost of common stocks was $3.1 million at December 31, 2000 and 1999 and $2.1 million at December 31, 1998. At December 31, 2000, gross unrealized appreciation on common stocks totaled $1.5 million, and gross unrealized depreciation totaled $1.8 million. The fair value of preferred stock totaled $41.6 million, $35.9 million, and $36.5 million at December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively. Bonds with amortized cost of $5.1 million were non-income producing for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000. At December 31, 2000, the mortgage loan portfolio was diversified by geographic region and specific collateral property type as displayed below.

95 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 6. Investments (continued) At December 31, 2000, the fair values of the commercial and agricultural mortgage loans portfolios were $317.5 million and $149.8 million, respectively. The corresponding amounts as of December 31, 1999 were approximately $323.5 million and $98.2 million, respectively. The maximum and minimum lending rates for mortgage loans during 2000 were 12.84% and 8.29% for agricultural loans, and 8.94% and 8.07% for other properties. Generally, the maximum percentage of any loan to the value of security at the time of the loan, exclusive of insured, guaranteed or purchase money mortgages, is 75%. For city mortgages, fire insurance is carried on all commercial and residential properties at least equal to the excess of the loan over the maximum loan which would be permitted by law on the land without the building, except as permitted by regulations of the Federal Housing Commission on loans fully insured under the provisions of the National Housing Act. For agricultural mortgage loans, fire insurance is not normally required on land based loans except in those instances where a building is critical to the farming operation. Fire insurance is required on all agri-business facilities in an aggregate amount equal to the loan balance. Note 7. Reinsurance The Company cedes business to reinsurers to share risks under variable life, universal life and flexible variable life insurance policies for the purpose of reducing exposure to large losses. Premiums, benefits and reserves ceded to reinsurers in 2000 were $588.1 million, $187.3 million, and $19.9 million, respectively. The corresponding amounts in 1999 were $594.9 million, $132.8 million, and $13.6 million, respectively, and the corresponding amounts in 1998 were $590.2 million, $63.2 million, and $8.2 million, respectively. Reinsurance ceded contracts do not relieve the Company from its obligations to policyholders. The Company remains liable to its policyholders for the portion reinsured to the extent that any reinsurer does not meet its obligations for reinsurance ceded to it under the reinsurance agreements. Failure of the reinsurers to honor their obligations could result in losses to the Company; consequently, estimates are established for amounts deemed or estimated to be uncollectible. To minimize its exposure to significant losses from reinsurance insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk arising from similar characteristics of the reinsurer. Neither the Company, nor any of its related parties, control, either directly or indirectly, any external reinsurers with which the Company conducts business. No policies issued by the Company have been reinsured with a foreign company which is controlled, either directly or indirectly, by a party not primarily engaged in the business of insurance. The Company has not entered into any reinsurance agreements in which the reinsurer may unilaterally cancel any reinsurance for reasons other than nonpayment of premiums or other similar credits. The Company does not have any reinsurance agreements in effect in which the amount of losses paid or accrued through December 31, 2000 would result in a payment to the reinsurer of amounts which, in the aggregate and allowing for offset of mutual credits from other reinsurance agreements with the same reinsurer, exceed the total direct premiums collected under the reinsured policies. 96 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 8.

Financial Instruments With Off-Balance-Sheet Risk (continued) The Company uses futures contracts, interest rate swap, cap agreements, and currency rate swap agreements for other than trading purposes to hedge and manage its exposure to changes in interest rate levels, foreign exchange rate fluctuations and to manage duration mismatch of assets and liabilities. The Company invests in common stock that is subject to fluctuations from market value changes in stock prices. The Company sometimes seeks to reduce its market exposure to such holdings by entering into equity collar agreements. A collar consists of a call that limits the Company's potential gain from appreciation in the stock price as well as a put that limits the Company's loss potential from a decline in the stock price. The futures contracts expire in 2001. The interest rate swap agreements expire in 2000 to 2011. The interest rate cap agreements expire in 2006 to 2008. The currency rate swap agreements expire in 2006 to 2015. The equity collar agreements expire in 2005. The Company's exposure to credit risk is the risk of loss from a counterparty failing to perform to the terms of the contract. The Company continually monitors its position and the credit ratings of the counterparties to these derivative instruments. To limit exposure associated with counterparty nonperformance on interest rate and currency swap agreements, the Company enters into master netting agreements with its counterparties. The Company believes the risk of incurring losses due to nonperformance by its counterparties is remote and that such losses, if any, would be immaterial. Futures contracts trade on organized exchanges and, therefore, have minimal credit risk. Note 9. Policy Reserves, Policyholders' and Beneficiaries' Funds and Obligations Related to Separate Accounts The Company's annuity reserves and deposit fund liabilities that are subject to discretionary withdrawal, with and without adjustment, are summarized as follows:

98 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies The Company has extended commitments to purchase long-term bonds issue real estate mortgages and purchase other assets totaling $33.5 million, $6.3 million and $14.7 million, respectively, at December 31, 2000. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of borrowers under long-term bonds commitments and requires collateral as deemed necessary. If funded, loans related to real estate mortgages would be fully collateralized by the related properties. The estimated fair value of the commitments described above is $56.4 million at December 31, 2000. The majority of these commitments expire in 2001. In the normal course of its business operations, the Company is involved with litigation from time to time with claimants, beneficiaries and others, and a number of litigation matters were pending as of December 31, 2000. It is the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, that the ultimate liability with respect to these claims, if any, will not materially affect the financial position or results of operations of the Company. During 1997, John Hancock entered into a court-approved settlement relating to a class action lawsuit involving certain individual life insurance policies sold from 1979 through 1996. In entering into the settlement, John Hancock specifically denied any wrongdoing. During 1999, the Company recorded a $194.9 million reserve, through a direct charge to its unassigned deficit, representing the Company's share of the settlement and John Hancock contributed $194.9 million of capital to the Company. The reserve held at December 31, 2000 amounted to $39.5 million and is based on a number of factors, including the estimated cost per claim and the estimated costs to administer the claims. Given the uncertainties associated with estimating the reserve, it is reasonably possible that the final cost of the settlement could differ materially from the amounts presently provided for by the Company. John Hancock and the Company will continue to update their estimate of the final cost of the settlement as claims are processed and more specific information is developed, particularly as the actual cost of the claims subject to alternative dispute resolution becomes available. However, based on information available at this time, and the uncertainties associated with the final claim processing and alternative dispute resolution, the range of any additional costs related to the settlement cannot be estimated with precision. If the Company's share of the settlement increases, John Hancock will contribute additional capital to the Company so that the Company's total stockholder's equity would not be impacted. 99 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO STATUTORY-BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note 11 -- Fair Value of Financial Instruments The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments:

______________________________ * From April 24, 2000 (commencement of operations) See accompanying notes. 131 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE ACCOUNT S NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) March 31, 2000 1. Organization John Hancock Variable Life Account S (the Account) is a separate investment account of John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company (JHVLICO), a wholly-owned subsidiary of John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company (John Hancock). The Account was formed to fund variable life insurance policies (Policies) issued by JHVLICO. The Account is operated as a unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and currently consists of thirty-seven subaccounts. The assets of each subaccount are invested exclusively in shares of a corresponding Portfolio of John Hancock Variable Series Trust I (the Trust) or of other Outside Investment Trust (Outside Trust). New subaccounts may be added as new funds are added to the Trust or to the Outside Trust, or as other investment options are developed, and made available to policyholders. The thirty-seven Portfolios of the Trust and the Outside Trust which are currently available are the Large Cap Growth, Active Bond (formerly, Sovereign Bond), International Equity Index, Small Cap Growth, Global Balanced, Mid Cap Growth, Large Cap Value, Money Market, Large / Mid Cap Value II (formerly, Mid Cap Value), Small/Mid Cap Growth (formerly, Diversified Mid Cap Growth), Real Estate Equity, Growth & Income, Managed, Short-Term Bond, Small Cap Equity (formerly, Small Cap Value), International Opportunities, Equity Index, Global Bond (formerly, Strategic Bond), Turner Core Growth, Brandes International Equity, Frontier Capital Appreciation, Clifton Enhanced US Equity, Emerging Markets Equity, Bond Index, Small/Mid Cap CORE, High Yield Bond, Large Cap Aggressive Growth, Fundamental Growth (formerly, Fundamental Mid Cap Growth), Active Bond II (formerly, Core Bond), Large Cap Value Core II (formerly, American Leaders Large Cap Value), Aim V.I. Value, Fidelity VIP Growth, Fidelity VIP Contrafund, Janus Aspen Global Technology, Janus Aspen Worldwide Growth, MFS New Discovery Series, and Templeton International Portfolios. Each Portfolio has a different investment objective. The net assets of the Account may not be less than the amount required under state insurance law to provide for death benefits (without regard to the minimum death benefit guarantee) and other policy benefits. Additional assets are held in JHVLICO's general account to cover the contingency that the guaranteed minimum death benefit might exceed the death benefit which would have been payable in the absence of such guarantee. The assets of the Account are the property of JHVLICO. The portion of the Account's assets applicable to the policies may not be charged with liabilities arising out of any other business JHVLICO may conduct. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Valuation of Investments Investment in shares of the Fund and of M Fund are valued at the reported net asset values of the respective Portfolios. Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on sales of respective Portfolio shares are determined on the basis of identified cost. 132 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE ACCOUNT S NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) Federal Income Taxes The operations of the Account are included in the federal income tax return of JHVLICO, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. JHVLICO has the right to charge the Account any federal income taxes, or provision for federal income taxes, attributable to the operations of the Account or to the policies funded in the Account. Currently, JHVLICO does not make a charge for income or other taxes. Charges for state and local taxes, if any, attributable to the Account may also be made. Expenses JHVLICO assumes mortality and expense risks of the variable life insurance policies for which asset charges are deducted at various rates ranging from .50% to .625%, depending on the type of policy, of net assets (excluding policy loans) of the Account. In addition, a monthly charge at varying levels for the cost of insurance is deducted from the net assets of the Account. JHVLICO makes certain deductions for administrative expenses and state premium taxes from premium payments before amounts are transferred to the Account. Policy Loans Policy loans represent outstanding loans plus accrued interest. Interest is accrued (net of a charge for policy loan administration determined at an annual rate of .75% of the aggregate amount of policyholder indebtedness) and compounded daily. At March 31, 2001, there were no outstanding policy loans. 3. Transaction with Affiliates John Hancock acts as the distributor, principal underwriter and investment advisor for the Trust. Certain officers of the Account are officers and directors of JHVLICO, the Fund or John Hancock. 133 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE ACCOUNT S NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) 4.

_____________________________________________ ** From May 1, 2000 (commencement of operations). *** From June 29, 2000 (commencement of operations). See accompanying notes. 162 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE ACCOUNT S NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2000 1. Organization John Hancock Variable Life Account S (the Account) is a separate investment account of John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company (JHVLICO), a wholly-owned subsidiary of John Hancock Life Insurance Company (John Hancock). The Account was formed to fund variable life insurance policies (Policies) issued by JHVLICO. The Account is operated as a unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and currently consists of thirty-seven subaccounts. The assets of each subaccount are invested exclusively in shares of a corresponding Portfolio of John Hancock Variable Series Trust I (the Fund) or of other outside investment trusts (Outside Trusts). New subaccounts may be added as new funds are added to the Fund or to the Outside Trusts, or as other investment options are developed, and made available to policyholders. The thirty-seven funds of the Fund and of the Outside Trusts which are currently available are the Large Cap Growth, Active Bond (formerly, Sovereign Bond), International Equity Index, Small Cap Growth, Global Balanced, Mid Cap Growth, Large Cap Value, Money Market, Mid Cap Value, Small/Mid Cap Growth, Real Estate Equity, Growth & Income, Managed, Short-Term Bond, Small Cap Equity (formerly, Small Cap Value), International Opportunities, Equity Index, Global Bond (formerly, Strategic Bond), Turner Core Growth, Brandes International Equity, Frontier Capital Appreciation, Clifton Enhanced U.S. Equity, Emerging Markets Equity, Bond Index, Small/Mid Cap CORE, High Yield Bond, Large Cap Aggressive Growth, Fundamental Growth (formerly, Fundamental Mid Cap Growth), Core Bond, American Leaders Large Cap Value, AIM V.I. Value, Fidelity VIP Growth, Fidelity VIP II Contrafund, Janus Aspen Global Tech, Janus Aspen Worldwide Growth, MFS New Discovery Series, and Templeton International subaccounts. Each subaccount has a different investment objective. The net assets of the Account may not be less than the amount required under state insurance law to provide for death benefits (without regard to the minimum death benefit guarantee) and other policy benefits. Additional assets are held in JHVLICO's general account to cover the contingency that the guaranteed minimum death benefit might exceed the death benefit which would have been payable in the absence of such guarantee. The assets of the Account are the property of JHVLICO. The portion of the Account's assets applicable to the policies may not be charged with liabilities arising out of any other business JHVLICO may conduct. 2. Significant Accounting Policies Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Valuation of Investments Investment in shares of the Fund and of Outside Trusts are valued at the reported net asset values of the respective Portfolios. Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on sales of respective Subaccount shares are determined on the basis of identified cost. 163 JOHN HANCOCK VARIABLE LIFE ACCOUNT S NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Federal Income Taxes The operations of the Account are included in the federal income tax return of JHVLICO, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. JHVLICO has the right to charge the Account any federal income taxes, or provision for federal income taxes, attributable to the operations of the Account or to the policies funded in the Account. Currently, JHVLICO does not make a charge for income or other taxes. Charges for state and local taxes, if any, attributable to the Account may also be made. Expenses JHVLICO assumes mortality and expense risks of the variable life insurance policies for which asset charges are deducted at various rates ranging from .50% to .625%, depending on the type of policy, of net assets (excluding policy loans) of the Account. In addition, a monthly charge at varying levels for the cost of insurance is deducted from the net assets of the Account. JHVLICO makes certain deductions for administrative expenses and state premium taxes from premium payments before amounts are transferred to the Account. Policy Loans Policy loans represent outstanding loans plus accrued interest. Interest is accrued (net of a charge for policy loan administration determined at an annual rate of .75% of the aggregate amount of policyholder indebtedness) and compounded daily. At December 31, 2000, there were no outstanding policy loans. 3. Transaction with Affiliates John Hancock acts as the distributor, principal underwriter and investment advisor for the Fund.

PART II UNDERTAKING TO FILE REPORTS Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic information, documents, and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or regulation of the Commission heretofore or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to authority conferred in that Section. REPRESENTATION OF REASONABLENESS John Hancock Variable Life Insurance Company represents that the fees and charges deducted under the Policies, in the aggregate, are reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and the risks assumed by the insurance company. UNDERTAKING REGARDING INDEMNIFICATION Pursuant to Section X of JHVLICO's Bylaws and Section 67 of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law, JHVLICO indemnifies each director, former director, officer, and former officer, and his heirs and legal representatives from liability incurred or imposed in connection with any legal action in which he may be involved by reason of any alleged act or omission as an officer or a director of JHVLICO. Insofar as indemnification for liability 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 the 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
