HIGHLIGHTS

This section is an overview of key Policy features. Your
Policy is a flexible premium variable universal life
insurance policy. Your Policy insures two Insureds. If one
of the Insureds dies, the Policy pays no death benefit. Your
Policy will pay the death benefit only when the second
Insured dies. A "second-to-die" policy might be suitable
when both of the Insureds have income of their own and only
want to provide financial support for their dependents if
both of them should die, or to provide liquidity to heirs
when the Second Insured dies. If replacement income or
immediate cash liquidity is needed upon the death of one
Insured, this type of policy may not be suitable.

The Policy's value may change on a:

1) fixed basis;
2) variable basis; or a
3) combination of both fixed and variable bases.

Review your personal financial objectives and discuss them
with a qualified financial counselor before you buy a
"second-to-die" variable life insurance policy. As a death
benefit is only paid upon the second Insured's death, this
Policy may, or may not, be appropriate for your individual
financial goals. If you are already entitled to favorable
financial tax treatment, you should satisfy yourself that
this Policy meets your other financial goals before you buy
it. The value of the Policy and, under one option, the death
benefit amount, depends on the investment results of the
funding options you select. Review this Prospectus and the
Funds Prospectus to achieve a clear understanding of any
Fund you are considering.

At all times, your Policy must qualify as life insurance
under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") to
receive favorable tax treatment under Federal law. If these
requirements are met, you may benefit from such tax
treatment. LLANY reserves the right to return your premium
payments if they result in your Policy failing to meet Code
requirements.

We offer other variable life insurance policies and variable
annuity contracts with different features, benefits and
charges. These policies also provide values that vary in
accordance with the investment experience of a separate
account of LLANY.

INITIAL CHOICES TO BE MADE

The Policy Owner (the "Owner" or "you") is the person named
in the "Policy Specifications" who has all of the Policy
ownership rights. You, as the Owner, have four important
choices to make when the Policy is first purchased. You need
to choose:

1) one of the three Death Benefit Options;
2) the amount of premium you want to pay; and
3) the amount of your Net Premium Payment to be placed in
each of the funding options you select. The Net Premium
Payment is the balance of your Premium Payment that
remains after certain charges are deducted from it; and
4) whether to elect the Age 100 No Lapse Provision.

You may also choose from Riders offered for this Policy.
These may alter the benefits or charges in the Policy and
