                         Notes to Financial Statements

                                 June 30, 1995
                                  (Unaudited)





(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     ------------------------------------------
     Nationwide Separate Account Trust (Trust) is a diversified, open-end 
           investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of    
           1940, as amended.  The Trust offers shares only to life insurance
           company separate accounts to fund the benefits under variable
           insurance or annuity policies issued by life insurance companies. 
           The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Trust effective June 30,
           1981.  To date, only separate accounts of Nationwide Life Insurance
           Company and Nationwide Life and Annuity Insurance Company (formerly
           Financial Horizons Life Insurance Company), which are affiliated
           companies, have purchased shares.

     On February 27, 1992, the Trust was amended to create the Capital 
           Appreciation Fund.  On April 15, 1992, the Fund was capitalized
           through the sale of capital stock to Nationwide Life Insurance
           Company in the amount of $500,000. On May 1, 1992, the Fund became
           effective and sales of shares commenced.

     Security Valuation
     ------------------

     (a) Capital Appreciation, Total Return and Government Bond Fund
         -----------------------------------------------------------
         Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at 
              closing prices.  Listed securities for which no sale was reported
              on the valuation date are valued at quoted bid prices. Short-term
              notes and bank certificates of deposit are valued at amortized
              cost, which approximates market.

         The value of a repurchase agreement generally equals the purchase 
              price paid by the Fund (cost) plus the interest accrued to date. 
              The seller, under the repurchase agreement, is required to
              maintain the market value of the  underlying collateral at not
              less than the value of the repurchase agreement.  Securities
              subject to repurchase agreements are held by the Federal
              Reserve/Treasury book-entry system or by the Fund's custodian.

     (b)  Money Market Fund
          -----------------
          Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market 
              value, in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act
              of 1940. 

                                                                     (Continued)

           Federal Income Taxes
           --------------------

           The Trust's policy is to comply with the requirements of the
               Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated
               investment companies and to distribute all its taxable income to
               its shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is
               required.  Each Fund of the Trust is treated as a separate
               taxable entity.


           Organization Expenses
           ---------------------

           Initital organization expenses of the Capital Appreciation Fund have
               been borne by Nationwide Financial Services, Inc., the Fund's
               distributor.


           Security Transactions and Investment Income
           -------------------------------------------

           Security transactions are recorded on the trade date.  Dividend
               income is recorded on an accrual basis; interest income is
               accrued daily.


           Dividends to Shareholders
           -------------------------

           (a) Capital Appreciation, Total Return and Government Bond Fund
               ------------------------------------------------------------

                Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.


           (b) Money Market Fund
               -----------------

               Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly from the sum of
                  net investment income and net realized and unrealized
                  short-term gain or loss.


           Income Equalization
           -------------------

           Prior to March 1, 1994, the Total Return Fund and Government Bond
               Fund followed the accounting practice known as income
               equalization by which a portion of the proceeds from sales and
               costs of redemptions of capital shares, equivalent on a per
               share basis to the amount of distributable investment income on
               the date of the transaction, is credited or charged to
               undistributed income.

<TABLE>
           Effective March 1, 1994, income equalization for the Total Return
               and Government Bond Funds was discontinued.  As a result, the
               Funds changed the classification of undistributed income to
               reflect this accounting change.  Accordingly, undistributed net
               investment income, paid in surplus, and income equalization as
               of February 28, 1994, were adjusted as follows:

           (2)  Transactions with Affiliates
                ----------------------------

                As investment manager for the Trust, Nationwide Financial
                    Services, Inc. (NFS), an affiliated company, is allowed an
                    annual management fee of .5% based on the average daily net
                    assets; this fee would not be payable in full if the effect
                    of such payment would increase total expense (excluding
                    taxes other than payroll taxes and brokerage commissions on
                    portfolio transactions) to an amount exceeding 1% of
                    average daily net assets for any fiscal year. Such
                    limitations on total expenses did not affect management
                    fees during the period covered by the financial statements.

                A subsidiary of NFS (Nationwide Investors Services, Inc.) acts
                    as Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent for the Trust.
