Dear Multi Fund(R) contractowner:

This report covers the 12 months ended December 31, 1996 for the Multi Fund(R)
Variable Annuity's 14 underlying variable investment options. We are pleased to
report most of the options produced favorable returns again in 1996.

As they did one year ago, many investors are wondering if this level of
performance will continue into the new year. We recommend that you focus on
long-term investment strategy rather than worry about where the overall market
will go next. Market volatility is a certainty. The important factor in making
investment decisions is to be in the market over the long haul and maintain a
diversified portfolio that continues to meet your risk tolerance and investment
objectives.

The following table summarizes the performance results of the Multi Fund(R)
Variable Annuity contract for 1996. The Delaware Group Series performance shown
below is for the time period from inception, May 1, through December 31, 1996.
All of these figures are slightly different from those appearing later in this
report. The performance results shown below are net of all charges, while those
shown later in the report are before deduction of the contractual fees.

</TABLE> 

On page two of this report, you will find an additional table that, in
accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, show results
as of the most recent completed calendar quarter after the deduction of all
charges. The charges include surrender charges that apply to certain withdrawals
made prematurely from a contract. Most contractowners regard Multi Fund(R) as a
long-term investment product, so they rarely contend with these surrender
charges.

We remain optimistic about the long-term prospects in the various financial
markets, but there are always uncertainties. We believe our portfolio managers'
disciplined approach will continue to prevail for those of you willing to
maintain a long-term investment strategy for your retirement or other future
needs.

Beginning on page three, we have included commentary from each of the portfolio
managers about the fund(s) they manage. These commentaries will provide some
insight as to how the funds were managed during 1996 and how our portfolio
managers will position the funds going forward in 1997.

In closing, we would like to thank each of you for choosing Lincoln Life as your
annuity provider. We value the confidence you have placed in Lincoln Life, and
we will work hard to earn your continued trust.

Sincerely,

/s/ Kelly D. Clevenger

Kelly D. Clevenger
Vice President

U.S. Government and there is no assurance that the subaccount will maintain a
stable $1.00 share price.

The risks associated with investing on a worldwide basis include differences in
regulation of financial data and reporting, currency exchange differences, as
well as economic and political systems which may be different from those in the
United States.

The performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance is not
indicative of future results.

</TABLE> 

The Aggressive Growth Fund produced exciting returns again in 1996, as did
almost all financial assets. This fund's return for the year was 17.0%, bringing
the total return for the past two years to almost 60%. These exceptional returns
are partially due to an ideal environment for financial assets. Benign inflation
and interest rates, coupled with stable monetary policy and economic growth,
have created one of the strongest periods in stock market history.

The most compelling returns in the market came in the slower-growing larger
companies that dominate the Standard & Poor's 500 Index. The S&P 500 was up
nearly 23% in 1996, while the typical mid-cap growth stock was up only 17.5%.
This is the third consecutive year during which larger cap stocks tended to do
notably better than the smaller, more aggressive stocks typically held in the
Aggressive Growth Fund. As a result of this three-year period, aggressive growth
stocks are typically more attractively priced relative to the overall market
than they have been in many years.

Companies that service and support oil exploration efforts did notably well,
including Ensco, Reading and Bates, and BJ Service. They benefited from major
changes in the technology and in the structure of their industry. Over time,
this philosophical focus on positive change has produced outstanding returns.

In 1997, the Aggressive Growth Fund will continue to focus on identifying
companies with positive fundamental changes that are likely to trigger earnings
above consensus expectations.

</TABLE>


1996 was a volatile year for interest rates. The initial outlook of slow growth
and the expectation for the Federal Reserve to lower rates quickly changed as
the market perceived signs of increasing economic growth and the potential for
increased inflationary pressures. This perception caused interest rates to rise
more than 1%. The outlook and direction of interest rates changed in the last
quarter as employment, growth and inflation indicators showed signs of a slowing
economy and moderate inflation.

The significant rise in interest rates was the dominant factor in the less than
stellar performance of the bond market. The Bond Fund (up 1.9% in 1996) slightly
trailed the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index (up 2.9% in 1996).
The average duration of the

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
bonds held in the fund was slightly longer than the index which caused the
slight underperformance when interest rates rose. The positive area of
performance was corporate bonds, which had positive results due to continued
strong corporate profits and moderate economic growth.

The Bond Fund's strategy continues to be an overweighting of investment grade
corporate bonds relative to the index, with modest duration adjustments
reflecting our interest rate outlook.

The outlook for 1997 is for continued steady growth with moderate inflation.
This is a favorable market for corporate bonds. The Bond Fund is positioned to
take advantage of this environment.

1996              $15,378                  $17,125
</TABLE> 


The markets closed out another impressive year during 1996. Investors' search
for highly liquid stocks bolstered the larger capitalization indices in the
fourth quarter. The S&P 500 Index gained an impressive 8.34% for the quarter,
and concluded the year with a gain of 22.96%. The Capital Appreciation Fund
gained 2.36% for the quarter, and 18.4% for the year.

Our substantial cash position and minimal exposure to two hot sectors,
technology and energy, caused this fund to lag the Index during the fourth
quarter. Additionally, EDS (Electronic Data Systems) missed an earnings
estimate, which proved to be a major disappointment. The company's earnings
shortfall, which was compounded by an uncertain outlook, took everyone by
surprise. Therefore, the position was liquidated.

Positions in a number of banking stocks, including Citicorp and Wells Fargo,
performed well this year. In addition, our insurance holdings had good gains. A
special standout was UICI, which was up more than 28% during the fourth quarter.
Allstate and longtime holding UNUM contributed to returns as well.

When stocks reach their recent valuations, we are content to hold cash and focus
even more on companies with solid earnings prospects. As we enter 1997, we will
be looking carefully for quality growth companies with predictable, long-term
earnings streams. We will also be watching for meaningful price breaks that
present opportunities to buy good companies at cheaper levels.

Fiscal 1996 was a mixed year for small-cap stocks and the Delaware Emerging
Growth Series. This series kept pace with the unmanaged NASDAQ Industrial Index
during the first half of the year, but the second half was disappointing. The
index returned 15.4% for the year. Generally, small-cap stocks did not fully
participate in the fall rally enjoyed by stocks of large companies. For the 12
months ended Dec. 31, 1996, the series provided a total return of 11.0%.

In the first half of 1996, the performance of the Delaware Emerging Growth
Series' small-cap stock selections was led by companies in the gaming, solid
waste and health care industries. Generally, these companies have reported
strong increases in earnings relative to both competitors and large
corporations.

During the second half, particularly the final three months of the year, this
series did not fare as well as earlier in the year relative to the NASDAQ
benchmark and the overall stock market. This short-term underperformance
reflected the fact that the Delaware Emerging Growth Series' management "stuck
to its guns" and selected emerging growth securities based on fundamental
measures of growth, such as corporate earnings potential, rather than short-term
stock price momentum.

In the year ahead, this series' management anticipates that more investors may
be attracted to stocks of smaller companies that appeared poised to benefit from
long-term economic and demographic change. In some industries, management
believes small-cap market securities may offer superior capital appreciation
potential relative to stocks of "big name" corporations.

This time a year ago, it seemed unlikely that 1996 could even come close to the
U.S. stock market gains of 1995. But despite a minor setback in July, stocks
again provided robust double digit returns. The Delaware Equity/Income Series,
which focuses on stocks that pay above-average dividends and offer capital
appreciation potential, provided a 20.7% total return for the 12 months ended
Dec. 31, 1996. Comparatively, the unmanaged S&P 500 Index provided a total
return for the year of almost 23%.

The series benefited from strong performance of financial, drug, chemical,
capital goods and railroad stocks. A positive economic environment helped, too.
Inflation was subdued thanks to the Federal Reserve Board's effective monetary
policy. Consumer spending grew at a moderate, sustainable pace. For some
companies, federal regulatory concerns dissipated.

Since the fall of 1994, stock prices -- as measured by the S&P 500 Index -- have
advanced at a pace that substantially exceeds the market's average annual
historical returns, with remarkably lower-than-average short-term price
declines.

Any prudent, long-term investment strategy is mindful of the historical fact
that stock markets move in cycles. Periods of expansion and prosperity can be
followed by uncertain times when
</TABLE> 

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
an effective stock selection strategy is especially valuable.

As 1997 unfolds, slower economic growth could translate into slower corporate
earnings growth and consequently less price appreciation. In such an
environment, dividends take on a much greater role in the total return of stock
investments. In our opinion, the Delaware Equity/Income Series' strict adherence
to a time-tested strategy that emphasizes the compounding power of dividends
should serve policyholders well.

</TABLE> 

Since the Delaware Global Bond Series was offered on May 1, 1996, it provided a
total return of 11.0% compared to the unmanaged Salomon Brothers World
Government Bond Index's return of 4.2%. Performance for this short time,
however, should not be viewed as indicative of future results. For the seven
months ended Dec. 31, 1996, the potential returns available from selected
overseas government bond markets have been more attractive than returns from the
U.S. government bond markets. While income was the dominant component of total
return from domestic bonds, selected European government bonds offered
substantial capital appreciation potential as Continental interest rates
declined.

During the year, the U.S. dollar rose in value against many currencies, notably
the Japanese yen. This had a negative effect on investment opportunities in some
countries. The Delaware Global Bond Series' performance benefited from not
having any Japanese bonds during the year, and management expects to again avoid
this market in 1997. In recent months, this series has put more emphasis on
bonds denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies -- that is, countries such as
Canada and New Zealand, whose basic unit of exchange is a "dollar."

Investing in international bonds involves special risks. Currency exchange rates
fluctuate, affecting the value of bond income and principal. Governments in some
parts of the world are less stable, which has the potential to affect the
payment of interest and return of principal. Generally, these risks can be
quantified and managed, but they cannot be eliminated.

In 1997, we believe better bond values will generally be found abroad even after
factoring in overseas currency fluctuations. More specifically, we expect to
remain overweighted in selected European bonds.

passed the Lipper Equity-Income Index's total return of 17.9%.

Given a backdrop of slowing overall corporate earnings gains, investors shifted
toward large cap stocks with expected steady earnings. Although this generally
favored growth-oriented styles of management, the value-oriented portfolio
benefited from the positive impact of its strong-performing positions, including
financial, energy, diversified industrial and certain consumer nondurable
stocks. Its out-of-favor economically sensitive and utility positions, however,
lagged the market.

Currently, my 1997 investment outlook is much the same as last year. Given
recent tremendous performance as well as concern about corporate earnings, it is
difficult to expect continued strong gains for the stock market. The potential
for lower interest rates, economic expansion and subdued inflation, however, are
positives in the outlook. While recent portfolio turnover has been relatively
low and we have continued to focus on many of the same positions, we seek to
capitalize on any changes within the market constructing the portfolio from the
bottom up based on the valuations and improvement potential of individual
securities.

</TABLE>

The Global Asset Allocation Fund provided a total return of 16.0% for 1996. The
U.S. stock market in 1996, fueled by robust corporate earnings and benign
inflation, continued the torrid pace begun in 1995. Over the two years ending
Dec. 31, 1996, the S&P 500 has returned approximately 60%, among the best two-
year performance records in history. Also performing well during 1996 were
European stock markets, which were supported by accelerating economic growth and
stimulative monetary policies. The Japanese stock market, however, after testing
five-year highs early in the year, finished down for the year.

The U.S. bond market suffered through a turbulent year as rates rose
dramatically through the first six months of the year on surprisingly strong
economic reports. It then recovered somewhat in the latter six months in a
strong autumn rally. Overseas bond markets came uncoupled from U.S. interest
rate movements and performed well as continental European governments and
Japanese policymakers sought to spur economic growth with accommodative monetary
policies. For U.S. investors, gains in overseas stock and bond markets were
moderated by the strength of the dollar vs. the yen and most European
currencies.

We took advantage of the global capital market environment of 1996 by biasing
the portfolio in favor of global stock markets, primarily in the United States
and Europe, throughout the year while underweighting U.S. bonds in the first
half of the year, then a combination of U.S. and foreign bonds in the latter
half of the year. These shifts boosted portfolio performance as U.S. and
European stocks outperformed bonds throughout the year.

Going into 1997, we believe European stock markets offer a combination of
attractive relative value with supportive economic fundamentals, while the U.S.
stock market, after two very strong years, is fairly valued. U.S. bonds,




                                       7
<PAGE>

after the rise in rates seen in 1996, are now fairly valued as well, while
overseas bond markets are in a position to experience the same kind of rate
increases seen in the U.S. bond market in 1996. In this environment, we continue
to overweight foreign stocks, primarily European, with modest underweights in
the U.S. stock and bond markets and a more substantial bias away from foreign
bonds. We will continue to closely monitor economic and market developments,
both at home and abroad, and manage your portfolio in a prudent and broadly
diversified fashion.

The stock market continued its remarkable bull run in 1996 with the S&P 500
Index returning almost 23% for the year. Smaller stocks as represented by the
Russell 2000 Index lagged the S&P 500, returning 16.5% for the year.

The Growth and Income Fund participated in the market's significant rise, ending
1996 up 19.9%, but it trailed the S&P 500 for the year. The S&P 500's return was
driven by the largest 15 stocks. For the year, those stocks returned 35.8%,
while the rest of the S&P 500 provided only an 18.3% return. While this fund has
exposure to some of the top 15 stocks, the portfolio is diversified and invests
in many other stocks to control risk. The Growth and Income Fund produced
returns consistent with the objective and provided risk-controlled exposure to a
rising equity market for policyholders.

The current environment of slow, steady growth and low inflation provides
support for a continued bull market in 1997. While it is unrealistic to expect
the returns of 1995 and 1996, 1997 has the makings of another positive year.

1996 proved to be a relatively good year for the International Fund, with the
vast majority of international markets posting positive returns. This fund
returned 10.0% relative to the MSCI EAFE Index's return of 7.2%.

Investments in quality growth companies selling at attractive prices in Europe
and the Pacific Basin accounted for much of this fund's outperformance. European
luxury goods and securities benefiting from corporate restructuring proved to be
exceptionally strong during the year. The impact from securities selected in
Malaysia is also particularly noteworthy. The much-anticipated recovery in Japan
has not

                                       8

been sustainable. The International Fund's underweight coupled with positive
stock selection helped to cushion the impact of Japan's continued disappointing
performance.

In 1997 we expect to actively watch developments in Japan, looking for signs of
a sustained economic recovery. We are optimistic that our investments in Europe
will continue to perform well and expect to maintain a modest overweight to the
Pacific Basin region.

</TABLE>

It was another double-digit year for returns in the Managed Fund (up 12.7% in
1996). As we had anticipated, equities once again showed better performance than
bonds and cash. Equities were almost 52% of fund assets at the start of the year
and finished the year at 57%. Relative to our peer group of balanced fund
managers, the downside to performance was our somewhat higher fixed-income
allocation. Although inflation remained within the parameters that we had
forecast, market concerns of continued bond pricing pressure from stronger
employment reports resulted in subpar bond returns.

A number of factors make it highly unlikely that 1997 equity returns will be
anywhere near those of the past two years. Three strong years in a row are the
exception, not the rule. Historically, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has had
mediocre performance in the year following a presidential election. Despite
these technical factors, fundamentals do suggest that equity returns closer to
the long-term trend of 10% are still possible. The low inflation moderate growth
scenario should remain in place and should be positive for both equity and bond
performance.

  1996    $37,669       $36,849
</TABLE>

The Social Awareness Fund had an exceptional 1996, returning 29.5% for the year.
It outperformed the S&P 500 Index (which was up almost 23% for the year) by
approximately 7% for the year. There are two main reasons that the Fund provided
such impressive returns:

 . Strong stock selection: The stocks identified as attractive appreciated more
  than the market.

 . Favorable industry positions: Some of those industries eliminated from the
  portfolio for social reasons underperformed, and some industries with a
  resulting increased weighting outperformed.

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
For example, utility stocks which are reduced in the portfolio due to nuclear
power production, underperformed in 1996. Conversely, bank and financial stocks,
which are overweighted, had a particularly strong year. Such "industry effects"
will have varying influence on the fund over time.

Over the short term, social and nonsocial portfolio returns will differ but, in
the long run, there should be no financial cost to social investing.

Although it is unrealistic to expect to match the returns of the last two years,
there is reason to expect that 1997 may be another positive year. The ride may
be bumpy as day-to-day market volatility has increased in recent years. However,
the economic environment is ripe for continued equity market success.

1996 was another strong year for stock investors. For the year, large stocks as
represented by the S&P 500 Index outperformed the S&P Mid-Cap Index, which
consists of stocks of medium sized companies. The fund had a solid year,
returning 17.3%. The S&P 500 returned almost 23% for the year, while the S&P 
Mid-Cap produced a 19.2% return.

The Special Opportunities Fund invests in undervalued mid-size companies that
are poised for future earnings growth. This fund's exposure to stocks of mid-
size and smaller companies hurt performance relative to the S&P 500. This fund's
emphasis on companies that are undervalued also dragged on returns. In the
technology industry, companies with high prices relative to earnings provided
above average returns in 1996. The fund was underweighted in these types of
companies and invested in reasonably priced hardware companies which did not
perform as well as other mid-cap stocks. Historically, smaller stocks have
provided higher returns over the long term. However, there are short-term
periods that prove different, and 1996 was one of those times.

While some analysts believe the market is now overvalued, we believe there is
still strength in this bull market. Yields on bonds are at low levels, providing
long term investors with few alternatives but equities. Furthermore, low
interest rates and inflation provide more support for a cautiously positive
outlook in 1997.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
 
Investment Valuation: Investments are stated at value.  Portfolio securities
which are traded on stock exchanges are valued at the last reported sale price
on the exchange or market where primarily traded or listed or, in the absence of
recent sales, at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices. Long-
term debt investments are valued at their bid quotations.  The Funds hedge
certain portions of their exposure to fluctuations in interest, market, and
foreign exchange risks by entering into derivative transactions.  These hedges
include options, financial futures, and forward foreign currency contracts.
Options traded on exchanges are valued  at the last bid price for options
purchased and the last sale price for options written.  Options traded in the
over-the-counter market are valued at the last asked price for options written
and the last bid price for options purchased.  Financial futures are valued at
the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on
which they are traded.  Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the
forward exchange rates prevailing on the day of valuation.  Other 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 Funds' Board
of Directors.  Money market instruments in securities are stated at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Investment transactions are
accounted for on the trade date.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Interest income
includes premium and discount amortization on money market instruments and
mortgage-backed securities; it also includes original issue and market discount
amortization on long-term debt investments.  Realized gains or losses from
investment transactions are reported on an identified cost basis.  Gains and
losses on premiums from expired options are recognized on the date of
expiration.

Securities Sold Short: Short-selling of securities obligate the Funds to replace
the security borrowed by purchasing it at market value at the replacement date.
The Funds would realize a gain (loss) if the price of the security declines
(increases) between the sale and replacement date.

Foreign Currency Transactions: The books and records of the Funds are maintained
in U.S. dollars.  All assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency
are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at
the end of the period.  Income and expenses and purchases and sales of
investments are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing
on the respective dates of such transactions.  The effects of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated from the
effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with
the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment in securities.

Reported net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions arise
from sales and maturities of forward foreign currency contracts, currency gains
and losses between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions,
and the differences between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign
withholding taxes recorded on the Funds' books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of
the amounts actually received or paid.  Net change in unrealized appreciation or
depreciation on translation of assets and liability in foreign currencies arise
from changes in the value of other assets and liabilities at the end of the
period resulting from changes in the exchange rates.

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 amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets
from operations during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

Expenses: The custodian bank of the Lincoln National Bond Fund, Inc., Lincoln
National Growth and Income Fund, Inc., Lincoln National Managed Fund, Inc.,
Lincoln National Money Market Fund, Inc., Lincoln National Social Awareness
Fund, Inc. and Lincoln National Special Opportunities Fund, Inc. has agreed to
waive its custodial fees when the Funds maintain a prescribed amount of cash on
deposit in certain non-interest bearing accounts.  For the year ended December
31, 1996, the custodial fees offset arrangements were not material to either
total expenses or the calculation of average net assets and the ratio of
expenses to average net assets.

Taxes: Each Fund has complied with the special provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code for regulated investment companies.  As such, each Fund is not
subject to U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year.

Withholding taxes on foreign interest have been provided for in accordance with
the applicable country's tax rates.

6.  SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT INFORMATION

OPTIONS: The Funds purchase or write options which are exchange traded to hedge
fluctuation risks in the price of certain securities.  When the Funds write a
call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is reflected as a
liability.  The amount of the liability is subsequently "marked-to-market" to
reflect the current market value of the option written.  The premium paid by the
Funds for the purchase of a call or put option is recorded as an investment and
subsequently "marked-to-market" to reflect the current market value of the
option purchased.  The Funds are subject to the risk of an imperfect correlation
between movement in the price of the instrument and the price of the underlying
security or transaction.  Risks may also arise due to illiquid secondary markets
for the instruments.  Written call option activity for 1996 is summarized as
follows:

</TABLE>


FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS:  The Funds may purchase or sell forward
foreign currency contracts to hedge risks of fluctuations in specific
transactions or portfolio positions.  Forward foreign currency contracts
obligate the Funds to take or deliver a financial instrument of foreign currency
at a future date at a specified price. The unrealized gain or loss on the
contracts are reflected in the accompanying financial statements.  The Funds are
subject to the credit risks that the counter parties to these contracts will
fail to perform; although this risk is minimized by purchasing such agreements
from financial institutions with long standing, superior performance records.
In addition, the Funds are subject to the market risks associated with
unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S.
dollar;  however, such changes in the value generally are offset by changes in
the value of the items being hedged by such contracts.  The purchase and sale of
forward foreign currency contracts that were open at December 31, 1996 were as
follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
 
FINANCIAL FUTURES CONTRACTS:  The Funds may purchase or sell financial futures
contracts, which are exchange traded, to hedge fluctuation risks of adverse
changes in exchange markets or interest rates.  Financial futures contracts
obligate the Funds to take delivery or deliver a financial instrument at a
future date at a specified price.  The Funds deposit with its custodian a
specified amount of cash or eligible securities called "initial margin" or
"variation margin".  The market value of investments pledged to cover margin
requirements for open positions at December 31, 1996 was $491,016 for the
Lincoln National Special Opportunities Fund, Inc., $4,637,812 for Lincoln
National Global Asset Allocation Fund, Inc., and $2,210,713 for Lincoln National
Social Awareness Fund, Inc.  The unrealized gain or loss on the contracts are
reflected in the accompanying financial statements.  The Funds are subject to
the market risks of unexpected changes in the underlying markets and interest
rates; however, such changes in the value generally are offset by changes in the
value of the items being hedged by such contracts.  Purchased financial futures
contracts open at December 31, 1996 were as follows:

INDEXED SECURITIES:  The Funds may invest in indexed securities whose value is
linked either directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest
rates, commodities, indices, or other reference instruments.  Indexed securities
may be more volatile than the reference instrument itself, but any loss is
limited to the amount of the original investment.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:  The Funds, through their respective custodians, receive
delivery of the underlying securities, whose market value is required to be at
least 102% of the repurchase price.  The advisor is responsible for determining
that the value of the collateral is at least equal to the repurchase price.
Repurchase agreements are subject to the risk of the default or insolvency of
the counterparty.


7. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Lincoln National Money Market Fund, Inc. had investments in securities
issued by banks, including foreign banks, foreign branches of domestic banks,
and other financial institutions representing 42.6% of net assets at December
31, 1996.  The ability of these entities to meet their obligations may be
affected by economic conditions related to the industry.

Lincoln National Capital Appreciation Fund, Inc., Lincoln National Equity Income
Fund, Inc., Lincoln National Global Asset Allocation Fund, Inc., and Lincoln
National International Fund, Inc., invest in foreign securities. As a result,
there may be additional risks, such as the investments being subject to
restrictions as to repatriation of cash back to the United States and to
political or economic uncertainties. None of these Funds had investments in
excess of 5% in any individual foreign country except the Lincoln National
International Fund, Inc.  Distribution of investments for the Lincoln National
International Fund, Inc. by industry, as a percentage of total investments,
consisted of the following at December 31,1996:

*    The per share data, total return, ratios and portfolio turnover are
     calculated for the period from commencement of investment activity on
     August 3, 1997 through December 31, 1987 for the Lincoln National Global
     Asset Allocation Fund, Inc., May 2, 1988 through December 31, 1988 for the
     Lincoln National Social Awareness Fund, Inc., and May 1, 1991 through
     December 31, 1991 for the Lincoln National International Fund Inc.
     Accordingly, the total return percentage, ratios, and portfolio turnover
     have NOT been calculated on an annualized basis.


**   Total return percentages in this table are calculated on the basis
     prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These percentages are
     based on the underlying mutual fund shares in which Separate Account C, D,
     G, and K may invest. The total return percentages in the table are NOT
     calculated on the same basis as the performance percentages noted in the
     letter at the front of this booklet (those percentages are based upon the
     change in unit value).


***  The Average Commission rate is calculated on funds holding long term equity
     securities. These funds do not hold long term equity securities; thus, an
     average commission rate has not been calculated.

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.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the

Notes to financial statements
December 31, 1996

Delaware Group Premium Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), is registered as a diversified
open-end investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Fund is organized as a Maryland corporation and offers ten series:
the Equity/Income Series, the High Yield Series, the Capital Reserves Series,
the Multiple Strategy Series, the Money Market Series, the Growth Series, the
International Equity Series, the Emerging Growth Series, the Value Series and
the Global Bond Series. The shares of the Series are sold only to separate
accounts of life insurance companies. The three series offered under the Multi
Fund Variable Annuity contract are the Equity/Income Series, the Emerging Growth
Series, and the Global Bond Series (the "Series").

The Series' investment objectives are as follows:

         Series                        Investment objective
         ------                        --------------------

Equity/Income Series     The investment objective is to seek the highest
                         possible total rate of return by selecting issues that
                         exhibit the potential for capital appreciation while
                         providing higher than average dividend income.

Emerging Growth Series   The investment objective is to seek long-term capital
                         appreciation by investing primarily in small-capital
                         common stocks and convertible securities of emerging
                         and other growth-oriented companies. These securities
                         will have been judged to be responsive to changes in
                         the market place and to have fundamental
                         characteristics to support growth. Income is not an
                         objective.

Global Bond Series       The investment objective is to seek current income
                         consistent with preservation of principal by investing
                         primarily in fixed income securities that may also
                         provide the potential for capital appreciation. The
                         Series is a global fund, as such, at least 65% of the
                         Series' assets will be invested in fixed income
                         securities of issuers organized or having a majority of
                         their assets in or deriving a majority of their
                         operating income in at least three different countries,
                         one of which may be the United States.

1. Significant accounting policies

Investment valuation: Investments are stated at market value. Portfolio
securities which are traded on stock exchanges are valued at the last reported
sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or listed.
Securities not traded or securities not listed are valued at the mean between
the last quoted bid and asked prices. Long-term debt securities are valued at
their bid quotations. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the
forward exchange rates prevailing on the day of valuation. Interpolated values
are derived when the settlement date of the contract is on an interim date for
which quotations are not available. Other 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 Fund's Board of Directors. Money
market instruments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market
value.

Investment transactions and investment income: Investment transactions are
accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Interest income
includes premium and discount amortization on money market instruments; it also
includes original issue and market discount amortization on long-term debt
investments. Realized gains or losses from investment transactions are reported
on an identified cost basis.

Certain fund expenses are paid directly by brokers. The amount of these expenses
was less than 0.01% of each Series' average net assets.

Expenses common to all funds within the Delaware Group are allocated amongst the
funds on the basis of average net assets.

                                       63

Notes to financial statements--(continued)

Foreign currency transactions: The books and records of each Series are
maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign
currency are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates
prevailing at the end of the period. Income and expenses and purchases and sales
of investments are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange
prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in
securities are not segregated from the effects of changes in market prices of
those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or
loss on investment in securities. Reported net realized gains and losses on
foreign currency transactions arise from sales and maturities of forward foreign
currency contracts, currency gains and losses between the trade and settlement
dates on securities transactions, and the differences between the amounts of
dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds' books
and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received paid. Net change
in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on translation of assets and
liabilities in foreign currencies arise from changes in the value of other
assets and liabilities at the end of the period resulting from changes in the
exchange rates.

Taxes: Each Series has complied with the special provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code for regulated investment companies. As such, each Series is not
subject to U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes all of
its taxable income for its fiscal year.

Withholding taxes on foreign interest have been provided for in accordance with
the applicable country's tax rates.

2. Other assets over (under) liabilities

The statement of net assets accounts "Other assets over (under) liabilities" at
December 31, 1996, consisted of the following assets (liabilities):

In accordance with the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, the
Equity/Income Series and the Emerging Growth Series pay Delaware Management
Company, Inc. ("DMC"), the investment manager of these Series, and the Global

have engaged Delaware Service Company, Inc. ("DSC"), an affiliate of DMC, to
serve as dividend disbursing and transfer agent for each Series. Effective
August 19, 1996, the Fund also engaged DSC to provide accounting services for
the Fund. Previously, fund personnel provided this service and the related costs
were recorded in salaries and other expense categories in the statement of
operations. For the year ended December 31, 1996, the amounts expensed for each

6. Supplemental financial instrument information

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Global Bond Series may purchase or sell
forward foreign currency contracts to hedge risks of fluctuations in specific
transactions or portfolio positions. Forward foreign currency contracts obligate
the Funds to take or deliver a financial instrument of foreign currency at a
future date at a specified price. The unrealized gain or loss on the contracts
is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Series is subject to
the credit risks that the counterparties to these contracts will fail to
perform; although this risk is minimized by purchasing such agreements from
financial institutions with long standing, superior performance records. In
addition, the Series is subject to the market risks associated with
unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S.
dollar; however, such changes in the value generally are offset by changes in
the value of the items being hedged by such contracts. Forward foreign currency
contracts that were open at December 31, 1996, were as follows:

Repurchase agreements: Each Series may invest in a pooled cash account along
with other members of the Delaware Group of Funds. The aggregate daily balance
of the pooled cash account is invested in repurchase agreements secured by
obligations of the U.S. government. The respective collateral is held by each
Series' custodian bank until the maturity of the respective repurchase
agreements. Each repurchase agreement is at least 100% collateralized. However,
in the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement,
realization of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

7. Concentration of credit risk

Each Series may invest up to 10% of its total assets in illiquid securities
which include securities with contractual restrictions on resale, securities
exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and other securities which may not be readily marketable. The relative
illiquidity of some of these securities may adversely affect the Series' ability
to dispose of such securities in a timely manner and at a fair price when it is
necessary to liquidate such securities. These securities, if any, have been
denoted in each Series' Statement of net assets.

Notes to financial statements--(continued)

The Global Bond Series invests in foreign securities. As a result, there may be
additional risks, such as the investments being subject to restrictions as to
repatriation of cash back to the United States and to political or economic
uncertainties.

Distribution of investments for the Global Bond Series by industry, as a
percentage of net assets, consisted of the following at December 31, 1996:

   Series, December 27, 1993, for the Emerging Growth Series and May 2, 1996,

   the Equity/Income Series; total return has not been annualized for the
   Emerging Growth Series; ratios and portfolio turnover have been annualized
   and total return has not been annualized for the Global Bond Series.

** Total return percentages in this table are calculated on the basis prescribed
   by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These percentages are based on the
   underlying mutual fund shares in which Separate Account C, D, G and K may
   invest. The total return percentages in the table are NOT calculated on the
   same basis as the performance percentages notes in the letter at the front of
   this booklet (those percentages are based upon the change in unit values).

***The ratios of expenses and net investment income to average net assets and
   portfolio turnover have been omitted as management believes that such ratios
   are not meaningful due to the limited assets of the Series.

highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements
and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
December 31, 1996, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. 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.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Equity/Income Series, the Emerging Growth Series and the Global Bond Series of
Delaware Group Premium Fund, Inc. at December 31, 1996, and the results of their
operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for
each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
