FIRST GREAT-WEST LIFE & ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Amounts in Thousands)
(Unaudited)
1. GENERAL
First Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the Company) is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company
(the Parent Corporation). The Company was incorporated as a stock life
insurance company in the State of New York and was capitalized on April 4,
1997. The Company was licensed as an insurance company in the State of New
York on May 28, 1997.
The financial statements and related notes of First Great-West Life &
Annuity Insurance Company (the Company) have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to interim
financial reporting and do not include all of the information and
footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31,
1997. The results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 1998.
On June 19, 1998 the Company received an additional paid-in-capital
contribution of $8,600.
2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income".
This Statement establishes new rules for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components; however, the adoption of this
Statement had no impact on the Company's net income or shareholders'
equity. This Statement requires unrealized gains or losses on the
Company's available-for-sale securities, which prior to adoption were
reported separately in shareholders' equity, to be included in other
comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the requirements of SFAS No. 130.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133 "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and for Hedging Activities". This Statement
provides a comprehensive and consistent standard for the recognition and
measurement of derivatives and hedging activities. This Statement requires
that all derivative financial instruments be recorded on the balance sheet
at fair value. If the derivative is not designated as a hedging instrument
changes in fair value are to be recognized in earnings in the period of
change. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be designated as a
hedge, in which case the accounting for a change in fair value will depend
on the specific exposure being hedged. This Statement is effective for all
fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999, and earlier
adoption is encouraged. The Company has not adopted this Statement as of
June 30, 1998. Management estimates the effect of the change will not have
a material affect on the Company's financial statements.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, total other
comprehensive income amounted to $2 and $233, respectively.

The following discussion addresses the financial condition of the Company
as of June 30, 1998, compared with December 31, 1997, and its results of
operations for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1998, compared
with the same periods last year. The discussion should be read in
conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis section included
in the Company's report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 1997
to which the reader is directed for additional information.
During the six months ended June 30, 1998 the Company sold one $50 million
single premium Bank-owned Life Insurance (BOLI) policy. The remainder of
the sales have been individual variable annuites sold through a marketing
agreement with Charles Schwab & Co. The contributions received for the
variable annuities included in the Separate Account are over $7.6 million.
There were no sales of fixed income annuities without significant life
contingencies during the six months ended June 30, 1998. The net income of
$330 thousand reflects fees associated with variable business, investment
income on surplus less the operating expenses associated with the new
operations.
In the months ahead, the Company will continue to focus its efforts on new
sales while continuing to develop other products for submission to the New
York Department of Insurance for approval.

General Account Investments - The Company's investment strategies and
portfolios are intended to match the duration of the related liabilities
and provide sufficient cash flow to meet obligations while maintaining a
competitive rate of return. The duration of these investments is
monitored, and investment purchases and sales are executed with the
objective of having adequate funds available to satisfy the Company's
maturing liabilities.
It is management's philosophy that the portfolio of fixed maturities be of
high quality. The fixed maturities in the Company's portfolio are
generally rated by external rating agencies, and if not externally rated,
are rated by the Company on a basis believed to be similar to that used by
rating agencies. The credit rating on the fixed maturity portfolio at June
30, 1998 is AAA.
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, net unrealized gains on fixed
maturities included in stockholders' equity, which is net of
policyholder-related amounts and deferred income taxes, increased surplus
by $233 resulting in accumulated other comprehensive income of $238.
Liquidity and Capital Resources - Liquidity for the Company has remained
strong as evidenced by significant amounts of cash. Generally, the Company
has met its operating requirements by maintaining appropriate levels of
liquidity in its investment portfolio.
The Company's capital resources represent funds available for long-term
business commitments and primarily consist of stockholder's equity.
Capital resources provide protection for policyholders and the financial
strength to support the underwriting of insurance risks, and allow for
continued business growth. The amount of capital resources that may be
needed is determined by the Company's senior management and Board of
Directors, as well as by regulatory requirements. The allocation of
resources to new long-term business commitments is designed to achieve an
attractive return, tempered by considerations of risk and the need to
support the Company's existing business.
