GREAT-WEST VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT A
Notes to Financial Statements
Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
================================================================================
[Unaudited]
NOTE 1 - HISTORY
Great-West Variable Annuity Account A (Variable Annuity Account A) is a separate
and distinct investment fund established by The Great-West Life Assurance
Company (Great-West Life). On December 31, 1991, Variable Annuity Account A was
transferred to and the variable annuity contracts were reinsured by Great-West
Life & Annuity Insurance Company (GWL&A), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Great-West Life. Variable Annuity Account A is registered as an open-end
diversified management investment company under the Investment Company Act of
1940, and the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 of the group
variable annuity contracts funded by Variable Annuity Account A became effective
on November 27, 1968. Purchase payments were first placed in Variable Annuity
Account A on January 3, 1969.
Effective April 6, 1984, Great-West Life ceased issuing variable annuity
contracts. Effective May 1, 1987, Great-West Life has not allowed new
participants to be enrolled under existing variable annuity contracts and,
effective May 1, 1989, no additional contributions under existing variable
annuity contracts are being accepted.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 cost of securities sold is determined on the basis of specific
identification.
Securities traded on national exchanges are valued daily at the closing price of
the securities on these exchanges, and securities traded on over-the-counter
markets are valued daily at the average between bid and asked prices. Short-term
securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Security transactions are recorded at the earlier of trade date or the date a
commitment is made to buy or sell the related investment.
Dividend income is accrued as of the ex-dividend date and interest income is
recorded daily.
<PAGE>
NOTE 3 - RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
GWL&A provides administrative, investment management, and advisory services to
Variable Annuity Account A and has assumed mortality and expense risks of the
contracts. A daily deduction of .003285% (an effective annual rate of 1.2064%)
is made from the gross investment income of Variable Annuity Account A. This
deduction, expressed on an annual basis, is broken down as follows: 0.2857% for
administrative expenses, 0.3863% for mortality risks, 0.0688% for expense risks,
and 0.4656% for investment management and advisory services. Effective November
1, 1996 a wholly-owned subsidiary of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance
Company, GW Capital Management, LLC, serves as investment advisor.
Contract benefit payments are advanced by GWL&A to contract holders on behalf of
Variable Annuity Account A. Variable Annuity Account A reimburses GWL&A for
these payments periodically.
NOTE 4 - INVESTMENTS
The aggregate purchases of investments and the aggregate proceeds from sales of
investments were (excluding short-term securities) as follows:

Purchases $ 3,351,553 $ 1,617,804
Proceeds from sales 4,576,896 4,123,096
</TABLE>
NOTE 5 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Variable Annuity Account A investment income is applied to increase
accumulation unit values. Under existing federal income tax law, Variable
Annuity Account A investment income is not taxed to the extent that it is
applied to increase accumulation unit values. GWL&A reserves the right to charge
the Variable Annuity Account A if such taxes are imposed in the future.
