NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2000
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UNAUDITED

1.     ORGANIZATION & SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
        Maxim Series Fund, Inc. (the Fund) is a Maryland  corporation  organized
        on December 7, 1981 under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940 (the 1940
        Act) as an open-end  management  investment  company.  Interests  in the
        Vista Growth & Income  Portfolio  (the  Portfolio)  are  represented  by
        separate  classes of beneficial  interest of the Fund.  The Portfolio is
        non-diversified  as defined in the 1940 Act. The  Portfolio is available
        only as an investment  option for certain  variable  annuity  contracts,
        variable life policies and certain qualified  retirement plans issued by
        Great-West  Life & Annuity  Insurance  Company  (GWL&A)  and New England
        Financial.

        The  Portfolio  seeks to achieve its  investment  objective  through the
        adoption of a Hub and Spoke structure.  Contribution of Portfolio (i.e.,
        the Spoke)  investible  funds to the Hub  portfolio are made in exchange
        for  beneficial  interests in the Hub portfolio or equal value.  The Hub
        portfolio is the Growth and Income Portfolio, a non-diversified open-end
        management investment company organized as a trust under the laws of the
        State  of New York and  registered  under  the  1940  Act,  as  amended.
        Financial  statements of the Hub  portfolio are presented  following the
        Portfolio's financial statements.

        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 revenue and expenses
        during the  reporting  period.  Actual  results  could differ from those
        estimates.

        The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the
        Fund,  which  are  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
        principles in the investment company industry:

        Security Valuation

        The  Portfolio's  investment in the Hub portfolio is valued based on the
        daily  reported net assets  value of the Hub  portfolio.  The  Portfolio
        receives an allocation of investment  income and Hub expenses as well as
        realized and unrealized  gains and losses on a daily basis from the Hub.
        In addition, the Portfolio accrues its own expenses daily as incurred.

        Dividends

        Dividends from net  investment  income of the Portfolio are declared and
        paid quarterly.  Income dividends are reinvested in additional shares at
        net asset value. Dividends from capital gains of the Portfolio,  if any,
        are declared and  reinvested at least  annually in additional  shares at
        net asset value.

        Federal Income Taxes

        For federal income tax purposes,  the Portfolio qualifies as a regulated
        investment  company under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code by
        distributing  substantially all of its taxable net income (both ordinary
        and  capital  gain)  to  its   shareholders  and  complying  with  other
        requirements  for  regulated  investment  companies.   Accordingly,   no
        provision for federal income taxes has been made.



<PAGE>


        Classification of Distributions to Shareholders

        The character of distributions  made during the year from net investment
        income or net realized  gains are  determined in accordance  with income
        tax  regulations  that may differ  from  generally  accepted  accounting
        principles.  These differences are primarily due to differing treatments
        of  deferral  of wash  sales,  net  operating  losses and  capital  loss
        carryforwards.  Also, due to the timing of dividend  distributions,  the
        fiscal year in which amounts are  distributed may differ from the fiscal
        year in which the income or realized gain was recorded by the Portfolio.

2.     INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

        The Portfolio has entered into an investment  advisory agreement with GW
        Capital  Management,  LLC, a wholly-owned  subsidiary of the Company. As
        compensation for its services to the Portfolio,  the investment  advisor
        receives monthly  compensation at the annual rate of .53% of the average
        daily net assets of the Portfolio.

3.       INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

        The  Portfolio's  percentage  interest in the Hub portfolio was 4.81% at
        April 30, 2000.  Purchases  and sales of Investment in the Hub portfolio
        were $31,236,334 and $48,948,047, respectively, for the six months ended
        April 30, 2000.

GROWTH AND INCOME AND CAPITAL GROWTH PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. Organization and Significant  Accounting Policies Growth and Income Portfolio
("GIP") and Capital Growth Portfolio ("CGP"),  (the "Portfolios") are separately
registered   under  the  Investment   Company  Act  of  1940,  as  amended,   as
non-diversified,  open end manage-ment  investment companies organized as trusts
under the laws of the State of New York.  Each  declaration of trust permits the
Trustees to issue benefi-cial interests in the respective Portfolios.
The following is a summary of significant  accounting  policies  followed by the
Portfolios: The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  Actual results could differ from those  estimates.  A. Valuation of
investments --Equity securities, purchased options and futures are valued at the
last sale price on the exchange on which they are  primarily  traded,  including
the NASDAQ National  Market.  Securities for which sale prices are not available
and other  over-the-counter  securities are valued at the last quoted bid price.
Bonds and other fixed income  securities  (other than  short-term  obligations),
including  listed  issues,  are valued on the basis of  valuations  supplied  by
pricing  services  or by  matrix  pricing  systems  of a major  dealer in bonds.
Short-term  debt securities with 61 days or more to maturity at time of purchase
are valued,  through the 61st day prior to  maturity,  at market  value based on
quotations obtained from market makers or other appropriate sources; thereafter,
the  value  on the 61st  day is  amortized  on a  straight-line  basis  over the
remaining  number of days to maturity.  Short-term  investments  with 60 days or
less to  maturity  at time of  purchase  are  valued at  amortized  cost,  which
approximates market. Portfolio securities for which there are no such quotations
or valuations  are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or at the
direction of the  Trustees.  B.  Repurchase  agreements--It  is the  Portfolios'
policy that repurchase  agreements are fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury and
Government  Agency  securities.  All  collateral  is  held  by  the  Portfolios'
custodian  bank,  subcustodian,  or a bank  with  which the  custodian  bank has
entered into a subcustodian  agreement,  or is segregated in the Federal Reserve
Book Entry System. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements,  if
the seller defaults and the value of the collateral  declines,  or if the seller
enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Trusts may
be delayed or limited.
C. Futures contracts --When a Portfolio enters into a futures contract, it makes
an initial  margin  deposit in a  segregated  account,  either in cash or liquid
securities.  Thereafter,  the  futures  contract  is marked  to  market  and the
portfolio  makes (or receives)  additional  cash  payments  daily to the broker.
Changes   in  the   value  of  the   contract   are   recorded   as   unrealized
appreciation/depreciation until the contract is closed or settled. Index futures
contracts  are used to  control  the  asset  mix of the  Portfolios  in the most
efficient  manner.  Short index futures contracts are used for hedging purposes,
i.e. to reduce the exposure to equities. Long index

PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

futures contracts are used to gain exposure to equities,  when it is anticipated
that  this will be more  efficient  than  buying  stocks  directly.  Use of long
futures contracts subject the Portfolios to risk of loss up to the nominal value
of the  contract.  Use of short  futures  contracts  subject the  Portfolios  to
unlimited losses.
The Portfolios  may enter into futures  contracts only on exchanges or boards of
trade.  The exchange or board of trade acts as the  counterparty to each futures
transaction, therefore, the Portfolio's credit risk is limited to failure of the
exchange  or board of  trade.  As of  April  30,  2000,  the  Portfolios  had no
outstanding futures contracts.
D. Security  transactions  and investment  income--Investment  transactions  are
accounted for on the trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed).
Securities  gains and  losses  are  calculated  on the  identified  cost  basis.
Interest  income is  accrued  as  earned.  Dividend  income is  recorded  on the
ex-dividend date.
E.  Federal  income  taxes  --The  Portfolios  intend to  continue to qualify as
partnerships  and therefore  net  investment  income and net realized  gains are
taxed to the  partners.  Accordingly,  no tax  provisions  are  recorded  by the
Portfolios.  The  investors  in the  Portfolios  must  take into  account  their
proportionate  share  of the  Portfolios'  income,  gains,  losses,  deductions,
credits  and  tax  preference  items  in  computing  their  federal  income  tax
liability,  without regard to whether they have received any cash  distributions
from the  Portfolio.  The  Portfolios  do not intend to  distribute to investors
their net investment  income or their net realized gains, if any. It is intended
that  the  Portfolios  will be  managed  in  such a way  that  investors  in the
Portfolio  will be able to  satisfy  the  requirements  of  subchapter  M of the
Internal Revenue Code to be taxed as regulated investment companies.
F.  Expenses--Expenses  directly attributable to a Portfolio are charged to that
Portfolio; other expenses are allocated on another reasonable basis. 2. Fees and
Other  Transactions  with  Affiliates A.  Investment  advisory fee --Pursuant to
separate  Investment Advisory  Agreements,  The Chase Manhattan Bank ("Chase" or
the "Advisor")  acts as the  Investment  Advisor to the  Portfolios.  Chase is a
direct wholly-owned subsidiary of The Chase Manhattan Corporation. As Investment
Advisor,  Chase  supervises  the  investments  of the  Portfolios  and for  such
services is paid a fee.
The fee is computed  daily and paid  monthly at an annual rate equal to 0.40% of
each Portfolio's average daily net assets. Chase Asset Management, Inc. ("CAM"),
a registered  investment advisor,  is the sub-investment  advisor to each of the
Portfolios  pursuant  to a  Sub-Investment  Advisory  Agreement  between CAM and
Chase.  CAM is a wholly owned  subsidiary  of Chase and is entitled to receive a
fee,  pay-able by Chase from its advisory  fee, at an annual rate equal to 0.20%
of each Portfolio's average daily net assets.

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

B. Custodian fees --Chase, as Custodian,  provides  safekeeping services for the
Portfolios'  securities.  Compensation  for such  services is  presented  in the
Statement of  Operations  as custodian  fees.  In addition,  custodian  fees are
subject to reduction by credits earned by each Portfolio, based on cash balances
held by Chase as custodian.  Such earnings  credits are presented  separately in
the  Statement  of  Operations.  The  Portfolios  could have  invested  the cash
balances utilized in connection with the earnings credits arrangements in income
producing assets if they had not entered into such arrangements.
C.  Administration  fee --Pursuant to an  Administration  Agreement,  Chase (the
"Administrator")  provides certain  administration  services to the Trusts.  For
these services and facilities,  the Administrator receives from each Portfolio a
fee  computed  at the annual rate equal to 0.05% of the  respective  Portfolio's
average daily net assets.  3. Investment  Transactions  For the six months ended
April 30,  2000,  purchases  and  sales of  invest-ments  (excluding  short-term
investments) were as follows (in thousands):
GIP CGP
Purchases (excluding U.S. Government) .......... $568,020 $350,972
Sales (excluding U.S. Government) ............. 936,247 573,180

Sales of U.S. Government ....................-- 586
The portfolio turnover rates of GIP and CGP for the six months ended April
30, 2000, were 23% and 40% respectively.
4. Federal Income Tax Matters
For  Federal  income  tax  purposes,   the  cost  and  unrealized   appreciation
(depreciation)  in value of the investment  securities at April 30, 2000, are as
follows (in thousands):
GIP CGP
Aggregate cost ........................... $1,869,831 $718,001
Gross unrealized appreciation ................. $ 572,438 $217,623
Gross unrealized depreciation ................. (77,180) (42,188)
Net unrealized appreciation .................. $ 495,258 $175,435
5. Retirement Plan
The Portfolios have adopted an unfunded noncontributory defined benefit
pension plan covering all independent trustees of the Portfolios who will
have served as an independent trustee for at least five years at the time of
retirement. Benefits under this plan are based on compensation and years of
service. Pension expenses for the six months ended April 30, 2000, included
in Trustees Fees in the Statement of Operations, and accrued pension liabil-ity
included in other accrued liabilities, respectively, in the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities were as follows (in thousands):

6. Bank Borrowings
The  Portfolios  may borrow  money for  temporary  or  emergency  purposes.  Any
borrowings  representing  more than 5% of a  Portfolio's  total  assets  must be
repaid before the Portfolio may make additional investments. The Portfolios have
entered into an agreement,  enabling them to participate  with other Chase Vista
Funds in an unsecured  line of credit with a syndicate of banks,  which  permits
borrowings  up to  $350  million,  collectively.  Interest  is  charged  to each
Portfolio  based on its  borrowings  at an annual  rate  equal to the sum of the
Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The Portfolios also pay a commitment fee of 0.10%
per annum on the average  daily  amount of the  available  commitment,  which is
allocated,  on a pro-rata basis to the funds.  The commitment fee is included in
Other expenses on the Statement of Operations. Borrowings are payable on demand.
The Portfolios had no borrowings outstanding at April 30, 2000, nor at any point
during the six months then  ended.  7.  Concentrations  At April 30,  2000,  CGP
invested  28.1% of its  portfolio  in  securities  issued by  technology  sector
companies,   such  as  computer  hardware  and  software   companies,   internet
connectivity   providers  and   telecommunications   equip-ment   manufacturers.
Valuations  of  companies  in the  technology  sector are  typically  subject to
greater volatility than other sectors.
