Dear Contract Owners:
 
    The U.S. Stock Market continued its bullish run in the first half of 1998.
The economy, entering its eighth year of growth, continued to show strength, but
unlike past expansions, inflation was falling instead of rising. Although the
Standard and Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index-TM- (S&P 500 Index), a broad
measure of stock market performance, rose 16.84% during the first six months of
1998, equity markets continued to be volatile as further deterioration of Asian
economies and concerns over corporate profits caused trepidation among
investors.
 
    The first quarter of 1998 was characterized by strong economic growth fueled
primarily by consumer spending. The U.S. Commerce Department reported that Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) grew at a healthy 5.4% rate during the quarter. Although
wages continued to rise, the risk of wage inflation was diminished by an
offsetting increase in productivity, thus keeping interest rates low. On March
31, 1998 the Dow Jones Industrial Average (Dow) and the S&P 500 Index closed at
near all-time highs and the NASDAQ 100 Index-TM- closed at a record high.
 
    In contrast to the first quarter, second quarter GDP decelerated to its
slowest pace in three years to a 1.6% annual increase. The trade deficit rose to
$15.8 billion in May, as exports to Asia and Europe contracted. Industrial
production fell 0.6% in June, as the General Motors strike took its toll.
Concerns over corporate profits began to reappear. Although the Dow closed above
9200 for the first time ever in May, the big stock indexes, including the Dow
and the S&P 500 Index, trended sideways during much of the quarter. The NASDAQ
100 Index-TM- fared well during the second quarter posting a total return of
9.6%. On June 10, Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan delivered a lengthy
but balanced testimony in which he described the U.S. economy as being in a
"virtuous cycle" of low inflation and strong growth. He went on to characterize
the current economic expansion as impressive as any economy he has ever
witnessed.
 
    During the first half of 1998 the yield on the 30-year Treasury Bond fell
from 5.923% to 5.627%. The fact that the U.S. Government is expected to post a
surplus for the first time since 1969 during this current fiscal year added more
good news for interest rates. Also,
<PAGE>
the Consumer Price Index, which is the broadest gauge of costs for goods and
services, has remained low.
 
IN SUMMARY
 
    Stock market volatility, a healthy U.S. economy, and a generally positive
performance of the stock and bond markets characterized the first half of the
year. However, continued weakness in foreign economies has blurred the U.S.
corporate profit outlook. Despite this, the domestic economy remains strong as
interest rates are low, inflation is benign, employment is high and U.S.
productivity has continued to improve.

value of futures contracts purchased and sold by the Account are accounted for
using the unrealized gain or loss on the contracts that is determined by marking
the contracts to their current realized settlement prices. Short-term securities
with less than sixty days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market. Securities and assets for which market quotations are not
readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or
under the direction of the Board of Managers.
 
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
 
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and
losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income and
expenses are accrued on a daily basis.

ORGANIZATION COSTS
 
Deferred organization costs represent expenses incurred and paid on behalf of
the Account by GARCO and PADCO. These expenses, which total approximately
$821,573, will be reimbursed to GARCO and PADCO by the Account. These initial
costs were allocated to the Subaccounts within the Account. The Account is
amortizing the total organization costs on a straight line basis over a five
year period beginning with the commencement of operations. These amortized costs
are then allocated to the Subaccounts daily and reconciled and settled monthly
between the Subaccounts on the basis of the relative net assets of each
Subaccount to the total assets of the Account. The monthly amortized amount is
paid to PADCO and GARCO. At June 30, 1998, accrued organization costs payable by
the Account to GARCO and PADCO were $150,808 and $483,106, respectively.
 
VALUE OF AN ACCUMULATION UNIT
 
The value of an accumulation unit is determined by dividing the current market
value of total Subaccount assets, less liabilities called net assets, by the
total number of units of that Subaccount outstanding. When the asset level of a
Subaccount is at zero, the Account's policy is to calculate the accumulation
unit value for that Subaccount each day based on the same day change in the net
asset value of the public Rydex Mutual fund comparable to that Subaccount,
commencing with the last reported value of the Subaccount.
 
OPTIONS AND FUTURES
 
Upon the purchase of a put option or a call option by a Subaccount, the premium
paid is recorded as an investment, the value of which is marked-to-market daily.
When a purchased option expires the Subaccount will realize a loss in the amount
of the cost of the option. When a Subaccount enters into a closing sale
transaction, the Subaccount will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the
proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of
the option. When a Subaccount exercises a put option, it will realize a gain or
loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale
will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When a Subaccount exercises a
call option, the cost of the security which the Subaccount purchases upon
exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid.
 
When a Subaccount writes a call option or a put option, an amount equal to the
premium received by the Subaccount is recorded as a liability, the value of
which is marked-to-market daily. When a written option expires, the Subaccount
realizes a gain equal to the amount of the premium received. When a Subaccount
enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Subaccount realizes a gain (or
loss if the cost of the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium
received when the option

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
was sold) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying
security, and the liability related to the option is eliminated. When a written
call option is exercised, the Subaccount realizes a gain or loss from the sale
of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the
premium originally received. When a written put option is exercised, the amount
of the premium originally received will reduce the cost of the security that the
Subaccount purchased upon exercise.
 
Futures contracts provide for the future sale by one party and the future
purchase by another party of a specified amount of a specified financial
instrument at an agreed upon price, date, time, and place. Upon entering into a
futures contract, the Subaccount is required to deposit with the broker an
amount of cash or cash equivalents equal to a certain percentage of the contract
amount. This is known as "initial margin." Subsequent payments ("variation
margin") are made or received by the Subaccount each day, depending on the daily
fluctuation of the value of the contract. The daily changes in contract value
are recorded as unrealized gains or losses and the Subaccount recognizes a
realized gain or loss when the contract is closed. Futures contracts are valued
daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on
which they are traded.
 
SHORT SALES
 
The Subaccounts may make short sales of securities. A short sale is a
transaction in which the Subaccount sells a security it does not own (but has
borrowed) in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the security. A
Subaccount may make short sales to offset a potential decline in a long position
or a group of long positions, or if the Subaccount believes that a decline in
the price of a particular security or group of securities is likely.
 
When a Subaccount makes a short sale, the proceeds it receives are retained by
the broker until the Subaccount replaces the borrowed security. In order to
deliver the security to the buyer, the Subaccount must arrange through a broker
to borrow the security, and in so doing, the Subaccount becomes obligated to
replace the security borrowed at its market price at the time of replacement,
whatever that price may be. The Subaccount may have to pay a premium to borrow
the security. The Subaccount must also pay any dividends or interest payable on
the security until the Subaccount replaces the security.
 
The Subaccount's obligation to replace the security borrowed in connection with
the short sale will be secured by collateral deposited with the broker,
consisting of cash or U. S. Government securities or other securities acceptable
to the broker. In addition, with respect to any short sale, other than short
sales against the box, the Subaccount will be required to maintain a segregated
account of securities as collateral in an amount such that the value of the sum
of collateral amounts is at all

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
times equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the securities sold
short. The collateral does not necessarily limit the Subaccount's potential loss
on a short sale, which may exceed the entire amount of the collateral.
 
If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short
sale and the time the Subaccount replaces the borrowed security, the Subaccount
will incur a loss, and if the price declines during this period, the Subaccount
will realize a capital gain. Any realized gain will be decreased, and any
incurred loss increased, by the amount of transactional costs and any premium,
dividend, or interest which the Subaccount may have to pay in connection with
such short sale.
 
2.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
As part of its investment program, the Subaccounts may utilize options and
futures. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium
originally paid. Options written by a Subaccount involve to varying degrees,
risk of loss in excess of the option value reflected in the Statement of Assets
and Liabilities. The risk in writing a covered call option is that a Subaccount
may forego the opportunity for profit if the market price of the underlying
security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a covered
put option is that a Subaccount may incur a loss if the market price of the
underlying security decreases and the option is exercised. In addition, there is
the risk a Subaccount may not be able to enter into a closing transaction
because of an illiquid secondary market or, for over-the-counter options,
because of the counterparty's inability to perform.
 
There are several risks in connection with the use of futures contracts. Futures
contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of amounts
reflected in the financial statements. The change in the value of futures
contracts primarily corresponds with the value of their underlying instruments,
which may not correlate with the change in the value of the hedged instruments.
In addition, there is the risk that a Subaccount may not be able to enter into a
closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market.
 
In conjunction with the use of options and futures, as well as short sales of
securities, the Subaccounts are required to maintain collateral in various
forms. The Subaccounts use, where appropriate depending upon the financial
instrument utilized and the broker involved, margin deposits at the broker or
repurchase agreements allocated to each Subaccount as collateral for options,
futures, and securities sold short.
 
3.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
No provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying
financial statements because the operations of the Account are included in the
operations of GARCO, which is treated as
 
                                       27

a life insurance company for federal income tax purposes under the Internal
Revenue Code. Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) are retained
in the Account and are not taxable until received by the contract owner or
beneficiary in the form of annuity payments or other distributions.
 
4.  USE OF ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amount 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.
 
5.  DEDUCTIONS AND EXPENSES
 
Although periodic retirement payments to contract owners vary according to the
investment performance of the portfolios, such expenses are not affected by
expense or mortality experience because GARCO assumes the mortality risk and the
expense risk under the contracts.
 
The mortality risk assumed by GARCO results from the life annuity payment option
in the contracts in which GARCO agrees to make annuity payments regardless of
how long a particular annuitant or other payee lives. The annuity payments are
determined in accordance with annuity purchase rate provisions established at
the time the contracts are issued. Based on the actual determination of expected
mortality, GARCO is required to fund any deficiency in the annuity payment
reserves from its general account assets.
 
A fee, which is equal on an annual basis to 1.25% of the daily value of the
Account, is deducted on a daily basis from each Subaccount for assuming the
mortality and expense risks. These fees were $307,149 for the six months ended
June 30, 1998.
 
An administrative charge, which is equal on an annual basis to .15% of the daily
value of the Account, is deducted on a daily basis from each Subaccount for
contract administrative charges. These fees were $36,859 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998.
 
6.  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
 
The Account transfers uninvested cash balances into a single joint account, the
daily aggregate balance of which is invested in repurchase agreements
collateralized by Federal agency obligations. Collateral is in the possession of
the Account's custodian and it is evaluated daily to ensure that its market
value exceeds the delivery value of the repurchase agreements at maturity. As of
June 30,

joint account and the collateral therefore was as follows:

</TABLE>
 
Risks arise from the possible delay in recovery of potential loss of rights in
the collateral should the issuer of the repurchase agreement fail financially.
PADCO, acting under the supervision of the Board of Managers, reviews the value
of the collateral and the creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with which
the Account enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.
 
7.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND TACTICAL ALLOCATION SERVICES
 
Under the terms of an investment advisory contract, the Account pays PADCO
investment advisory fees calculated at an annual percentage rate of one half of
one percent (0.50%) of the average net assets of the Money Market Subaccount and
the U.S. Government Bond Subaccount, three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) of
the average net assets of the Nova Subaccount, the Precious Metals Subaccount,
and the OTC Subaccount, and nine-tenths of one percent (0.90%) of the average
net assets of the Ursa Subaccount and the Juno Subaccount.
 
PADCO Services, Inc., (the "Servicer") provides tactical allocation
administrative services to the Account calculated at an annual percentage rate
of two-tenths of one percent (0.20%) of the average net assets of the Money
Market Subaccount, U.S. Government Bond Subaccount, Precious Metals Subaccount,
and the OTC Subaccount; and at an annual rate of one-quarter of one percent
(0.25%) of the average net assets of the Nova Subaccount, the Ursa Subaccount,
and the Juno Subaccount.
 
The Servicer also provides other necessary services to the Account, such as
accounting and auditing services, legal services, custody, printing and mailing,
etc., on a pass-through basis. Such expenses vary from Subaccount to Subaccount.
 
PADCO and the Servicer have voluntarily agreed to waive their investment
advisory and tactical allocation administrative service fees and, if necessary,
to reimburse any Subaccount expenses which would cause the ratios of expenses to
average net assets to exceed 3.60%, 3.70%, 3.00%, 3.60%, 3.60%, 3.20%, and 3.70%
for the Nova, Ursa, Money Market, OTC, Precious Metals, U.S. Government Bond,
and Juno Subaccounts, respectively, effective January 1, 1998.
