This supplement amends certain disclosure contained in the above-referenced prospectus for certain variable annuity contracts (“Contracts”) issued by Allstate Life Insurance Company.

 

We have received notice that the Board of Trustees (“Board”) of the STI Classic Variable Trust has approved the liquidation, on or about May 1, 2007 (the “Closing Date”), of the following Fund portfolios:

 

 

STI Classic International Equity Fund Portfolio

 

STI Classic Investment Bond Fund Portfolio

 

(collectively the “STI Classic Portfolios”)

 

Due to the liquidation of the STI Classic Portfolios, we will no longer accept new premiums for investment in, nor will we permit transfers to, the STI Classic International Equity Fund Sub-Account or the STI Classic Investment Grade Bond Fund Sub-Account (“STI Classic Sub-Accounts”) on or after April 27, 2007.

 

As the STI Classic Sub-Accounts will no longer be offered as an investment alternative, you may wish to transfer, prior to April 27, 2007 some or all of your Contract Value in the STI Classic Sub-Accounts to the other investment alternatives currently offered by your Contract. These transfers are not subject to a transfer fee. Any value remaining in the STI Classic Sub-Accounts will be transferred automatically, as of April 27, 2007, to the Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account, an investment alternative already available under your Contract.

 

If you currently allocate Contract Value to the STI Classic Sub-Accounts through automatic additions, automatic portfolio rebalancing, dollar cost averaging or systematic withdrawal programs, your allocations in these programs will also need to be changed. If you do not change these allocations to other investment alternatives currently available under your Contract, any allocations to the STI Classic Sub-Accounts will be automatically allocated, as of April 27, 2007, to the Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account.

 

If you currently have the Accumulation Benefit Option and are invested in the STI Classic Sub-Accounts, your investments in those Sub-Accounts will be transferred automatically, as of April 27, 2007, to the Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account.

 

The percentage allocation investment requirements for Guarantee Option 1, Model Portfolio Option 1 are 20% in Category A, 50% in Category B, 30% in Category C and 0% in Category D. The Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account is a Category A Sub-Account, the STI Classic Investment Grade Bond Sub-Account is a Category B Sub-Account, and the STI Classic International Equity Sub-Account is a Category C Sub-Account.

 

If your Accumulation Benefit Option Rider Date was prior to October 1, 2004, the percentage allocation investment requirements for Guarantee Option 2, Model Portfolio Option 2 are 10% in Category A, 20% in Category B, 50% in Category C and 20% in Category D. The Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account is a

Category A Sub-Account, the STI Classic Investment Grade Bond Sub-Account is a Category B Sub-Account, and the STI Classic International Equity Sub-Account is a Category D Sub-Account.

 

If your Accumulation Benefit Option Rider Date is on or after October 1, 2004, the Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account, the STI Classic Investment Grade Bond Sub-Account and the STI Classic International Equity Sub-Account are all available Variable Sub-Accounts under Guarantee Option 2, Model Portfolio Option 2.

 

Failure to meet the investment requirements may result in cancellation of the Accumulation Benefit Option.

 

If your Contract Value in the STI Classic Sub-Accounts is transferred automatically on the Closing Date to the Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account, for 60 days, you may transfer your Contract Value in the Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account to any other investment alternative(s) available under your Contract, subject to the investment requirements of the Accumulation Benefit Option, if applicable. This transfer is not subject to a transfer fee.

 

We will send you a confirmation that shows the amount that is transferred to the Putnam VT Money Market – Class IB Sub-Account or to the investment alternative that you chose and the date of the transaction. For additional information on how to transfer to another investment alternative, or how to make a change to your current allocation(s), please contact your financial representative or call our Customer Service Center at 1-800-203-0068.
