                             Q.
                             How Did The Fund Perform?
     [PHOTOGRAPH]            
                             The Hartford Small Company HLS Fund outperformed 
                             its Lipper peer group for the year ending 
                             December 31, 1998.  The Fund provided a total
                             return of 11.6% versus 1.5% for the Lipper Small
     MARK S. WATERHOUSE      Company VA-UF Average, placing the Fund in the
     Vice President          first quartile of performance for funds in the
     Wellington Management   group.
        Company, LLP         
                             Q.
                             Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
                             
                             The greatest single contributor to the great 
                             performance in 1998 was maintaining our 
                             conviction on our holdings during periods of 
                             market volatility, while adhering to our 
                             discipline and taking advantage of market 
                             gyrations to acquire attractively valued 
                             smaller companies.

                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             We are very optimistic about small cap stocks 
                             in 1999.  In light of larger cap companies' 
                             greater reliance on markets outside of the U.S. 
                             for profit growth, aggregate earnings estimates 
                             for small caps exceed the expected growth for 
                             major companies.  In addition, due to their 
                             recent relative underperformance, small caps 
                             are attractively valued with multiples, in some 
                             instances, at 15-20 year lows.  Going forward, 
                             we will continue to focus on identifying the 
                             most attractive opportunities in the small cap 
                             universe.  As a guide, we will concentrate on 
                             those economic sectors where we see the 
Performance Overview         greatest potential and on those small companies

Portfolio Manager

                             Q.
                             How Did The Fund Perform?
     [PHOTOGRAPH]            
                             The Hartford Capital Appreciation HLS Fund     
                             underperformed its Lipper peer group for the   
                             year ending December 31, 1998. The Fund        
                             provided a total return of 15.5% versus 22.2%  
     SAUL J. PANNELL, CFA    for the Lipper Capital Appreciation VA-UF      
     Senior Vice President   Average.  On a longer term basis, the Fund has 
        and Partner          performed in line with its Lipper peer group   
     Wellington Management   and ranks at the median point of its           
        Company, LLP         competition.                                   
                             
                             Q.
                             Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
                             
                             Due to their perceived safe haven               
                             characteristics, large cap, blue chip growth    
                             stocks dominated the market in 1998.  There was 
                             a wide disparity between the performance of     
                             "mega-caps" and everything else in the market.  
                             The Capital Appreciation Fund is invested in    
                             many mid and small cap companies that we        
                             believe have great capital appreciation         
                             potential.  However, this exposure limited the  
                             Fund's returns this year.                       
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             During 1999, we may well see a reversal of the  
                             large cap dominance of the equity market.       
                             Therefore, we are confident that our approach   
                             of focusing on opportunities for capital        
                             appreciation, regardless of market              
                             capitalization, will provide satisfactory       
                             returns.  The overall strategy for the Fund is  
                             dual faceted:  we will emphasize smaller        
                             companies with dynamic earnings growth          
                             prospects, and use larger stocks as             
                             opportunistic trades where we see a catalyst    
                             for outperformance.  We have tended to roam off 
                             the beaten path, historically where the most    
                             upside potential has been.  This approach       
                             should provide positive absolute and relative   
Performance Overview         results over the longer term.  While the        
1/1/89 - 12/31/98            overall market outlook remains controversial,   
Growth of a $10,000          macroeconomic and valuation factors endorse our 
investment.                  positioning.

        MIDCAP HLS FUND

Portfolio Manager

                             Q.
                             How Did The Fund Perform?
     [PHOTOGRAPH]            
                             The Hartford MidCap HLS Fund outperformed its  
                             Lipper peer group for the year ending December 
                             31, 1998.  The Fund provided a total return of 
                             26.6% versus 19.3% for the Lipper MidCap VA-UF 
                             Average, placing the Fund in the second        
                             quartile of performance for funds in the group.
   PHILLIP H. PERELMUTER     
   Vice President            Q.
   Wellington Management     Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
      Company, LLP           
                             Although the market's performance in 1998 was   
                             driven by large cap stocks, mid caps fared      
                             relatively well.  A strong rebound in the 4th   
                             quarter was especially helpful.  Mid-caps, as   
                             measured by the S&P Mid Cap 400 Index, returned 
                             28.2% in the 4th quarter alone.  This           
                             performance was better than that of both        
                             large-cap and small-cap stocks for the same     
                             period.  In addition, our steadfast focus on    
                             high-quality mid-cap companies operating in the 
                             highest growth areas of the economy provided a  
                             performance advantage versus the competition.   
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             Although large cap stocks outperformed mid caps
                             in 1998, we may be near an inflection point in 
                             relative performance.  Mid-cap stocks generally
                             perform well relative to large-caps after      
                             Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, of which we
                             have recently had three.  Also supportive of   
                             the asset class, the current gap in valuations 
                             between mid- and large-caps is very wide.  We  
                             will continue to focus on companies on the     
                             verge of greatness within our five sectors of  
                             opportunity: consumer products, finance, health
                             care, services, and technology.  These are the

   Senior Vice President     Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
      and Partner            
   Wellington Management     Despite a volatile year for international      
      Company, LLP           equity markets, the Hartford International     
                             Opportunities Fund fared well as a result of   
                             its strategic country allocation decisions.    
                             The Fund was positioned to benefit from strong 
                             performing markets in Europe and to limit      
                             losses in crisis areas such as Japan and the   
                             Emerging Markets.  The Fund was also           
                             repositioned to have greater exposure to large 
                             cap stocks capable of withstanding the         
                             challenges of less dynamic global economic     
                             growth.                                        
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             We expect lackluster corporate profits growth   
                             globally in 1999.  Although profit growth will  
                             slow, equities should post good performance due 
                             to lower global interest rates.  We believe     
                             owning stable growth companies during such a    
                             period of decelerating corporate profits and    
                             global economic weakness is the prudent         
                             investment strategy.  We are bullish on Europe, 
                             where the corporate restructuring and           
                             increased focus on shareholder returns will be  
                             accelerated by the Euro.  We are concerned by   
                             the slow pace of change in Japan and will limit 
                             exposure to this market until we see            
                             substantial progress on structural reforms.     
                             Despite Japan's problems, there are select      
                             investment opportunities, such as in the        
                             attractively valued technology sector.  The     
                             investment risks in the Emerging Markets        
                             currently outweigh the prospective rewards, but

                                      The portfolio invests in the best 
                                      companies around the world.  We focus 
                                      on  companies with superior products, 
                                      services and management.  These 
                                      global leaders are capable of 
                                      delivering admirable earnings even 
                                      during difficult economic times.  The 
                                      factors which give them comparative 
                                      advantages translate into strong 
                                      earnings growth and stock price 
                                      performance.

                                      What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                                      
                                      Overall, there is a clear focus     
                                      toward growth sectors and, while the
                                      valuations may be higher in these   
                                      areas, we believe our strategy is   
                                      appropriate for this stage of the   
                                      world economy.  Commodity price     
                                      deflation, industrial capacity      
                                      oversupply, and intense competition 
                                      worldwide have made it difficult for
                                      companies to grow revenues and      
                                      profits.  Companies that can deliver
                                      growth in this environment will     
                                      command investor attention.  The    
                                      sectors on which we are currently   
                                      most focused are information        
                                      technology, health-care, and

                                      are cautious on the materials and   
                                      energy sectors which require a more

   Senior Vice President     Q.
      and Partner            Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
   Wellington Management     
      Company, LLP           In spite of the market turmoil in 1998,         
                             investors who focused on large-cap, high        
                             quality companies with consistent or            
                             accelerating earnings growth were well          
                             rewarded.  The market's performance was         
                             dominated by a small number of very large       
                             companies who were able to deliver in a         
                             difficult environment.  These are exactly the   
                             type of companies in which the Stock Fund       
                             invests.  The Fund also benefited from our      
                             overweight positions in technology, healthcare, 
                             retail and media -- sectors which performed     
                             well in 1998.                                   

                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?

                             With low inflation, less dynamic economic       
                             growth, and the potential for lower interest    
                             rates, we expect the market to continue         
                             focusing on companies with consistent and       
                             predictable earnings growth.  The Federal       
                             Reserve's interest rate cuts have been welcomed 
                             by Wall Street but have not had much impact on  
                             global economic growth; therefore, we expect    
                             further efforts on the part of the world's      
                             central bankers to stimulate the worldwide      
                             economy.  These efforts could lead to a period  
                             of rapid growth which would turn investors'     
                             attention to more cyclical sectors of the       
Performance Overview         market.  At such time, we would increase our

                             Large-cap stocks were the key beneficiaries of  
                             the fourth quarter stock market rally.  Within  
                             large stocks, growth companies, the focus of    
                             the Growth and Income Fund, outperformed value  
                             stocks.  In addition, our significant weighting 
                             in technology stocks, which led the stock       
                             market recovery, also boosted returns.

                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             We anticipate slower U.S. economic activity and 
                             corporate earnings growth in 1999.  However,    
                             the interest rate environment is very positive  
                             for equities, particularly for those stocks     
                             which produce stable earnings growth. We expect 
                             additional interest rate cuts by the Federal    
                             Reserve, which will also be supportive of stock 
                             market returns.  Finding superior stocks will   
                             be a more difficult task in 1999 as valuations  
                             are stretched by historical standards.

                             Fund provided a total return of 16.4% versus

      and Partner            Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
   Wellington Management     
      Company, LLP           During 1998, growth-oriented stocks outpaced   
                             value stocks.  In light of our                 
                             dividend-oriented value bias, some of the      
                             Fund's holdings were under pressure.  Our lack 
                             of holdings in the information technology area 
                             which we find to be overvalued, was also a     
                             drawback.  Substantial holdings in the         
                             industrial/commercial and                      
                             information/entertainment sectors were         
                             beneficial to the Fund.                        

                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?

                             We will continue to look for value plays across 
                             all industries.  This is a key feature of the   
                             Fund's investment strategy. Since the focus of  
                             our investment approach is stock selection, the 
                             sector representation will be fairly stable     
                             over time.  In light of slower global growth    
                             and benign inflation trends, we are well        
                             positioned going into 1999 as we have limited   
                             our exposure to cyclical companies              
                             (commodities, manufacturing) while maximizing   
                             holdings in more promising areas such as health 
                             care and consumer products.  In our stock       
Performance Overview         selection, we will continue identifying stocks

                                      The Fund provided a total return of

                                      It was a volatile year in the         
                                      international equity and fixed income 
                                      markets.  Through our ability to      
                                      allocate assets between stocks, bonds 
                                      and cash, we were able to take        
                                      advantage of attractive

                                      allocation did not prove to be the    
                                      most optimal mix for surpassing the   
                                      returns of our Composite index

                                      What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                                      
                                      The global economy will experience   
                                      weak, but positive, growth in 1999.  
                                      World GDP should average only 1.3%   
                                      next year -- the slowest growth rate 
                                      since the early 1980's.  Weak        
                                      economic activity and very low       
                                      inflation provide a backdrop for     
                                      stable to lower global interest      
                                      rates.   This provides a positive    
                                      backdrop for most global fixed income
                                      markets in 1999.                     

                                      Weaker worldwide economic growth will 
                                      result in lackluster corporate 
                                      profits growth.  Despite the slower 
                                      profit growth, equities should post 
                                      good performance in light of the low 
                                      level of global interest rates.  
                                      During a period of decelerating

               Senior Vice President  Q.
                  and Partner         Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
               Wellington Management  
                  Company, LLP        During volatile times, allocating 
                                      assets between stocks and bonds 
                                      within a portfolio is an enormous 
                                      advantage.  Merely having that 
                                      flexibility, however, is not enough.
                                      The asset allocation we used within 
                                      the portfolio allowed us to capture 
                                      strong stock market performance and 
                                      utilize fixed income to protect the 
                                      Fund during difficult times, such as 
                                      in the third quarter '98. By 
                                      gradually adjusting the weighting 
                                      between stocks, bonds and cash, we 
                                      were able to use our expectations of 
                                      market developments to produce 
                                      attractive Fund returns.

                                      Short- and intermediate-term yields   
                                      are likely to fall as the eventual    
                                      weakening of the economy will permit  
                                      the Federal Reserve to lower          
                                      short-term interest rates.   The      
                                      current backdrop of slower economic

                                      While we are optimistic about U.S.    
                                      equities, we are also wary about      
                                      market valuation levels.   Therefore, 
                                      we will maintain our exposure to      
                                      equities around 55%.  This is a

                             How Did The Fund Perform?
     [PHOTOGRAPH]            
                             The Hartford High Yield HLS Fund commenced      
                             operations on October 1, 1998.  The Fund's      
                             Class IA shares placed in the 2nd quartile of   
                             its Lipper peer group for the three-months      
                             ending December 31, 1998, producing a total     
                             return of 3.58% versus the 2.94% return of the

  The Hartford Investment    of its benchmark index, the Lehman Corporate    
  Management Company (HIMCO) High Yield Index, which returned 2.13% for the  
                             quarter.                                        
                             
                             Q.
                             Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
                             
                             The decline in the high yield fixed income      
                             market during early October provided the Fund   
                             with the opportunity to purchase many of its    
                             initial investments at levels which contributed 
                             to the Fund's overall outperfomance. The Fund's 
                             allocation to issues which possess a relatively 
                             high degree of market liquidity aided the       
                             portfolio's performance, as these securities    
                             were in demand during the fourth quarter.  An   
                             underweighting of the steel, finance, and       
                             energy industries during the quarter also       
                             provided additional performance at the margin.  
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             As we enter 1999, we are emphasizing three 
                             themes in the high yield fund.  The first theme 
                             reflects our belief that there are 
                             opportunities in selected 
                             economically-sensitive issues which, in the 
                             opinion of our analysts, have the wherewithal 
                             to survive the current downturn.   While the 
                             outlook for a number of the cyclical industries 
                             remains challenging, the pricing of these 
                             securities reflects a high level of perceived 
                             risk.  We therefore feel that the risk/reward 
                             characteristics of these issues are very 
                             attractive.
                             
                             The second portfolio theme we are emphasizing 
                             focuses on the process of deregulation, 
                             convergence and consolidation that can be 
                             witnessed in a variety of industries, including 
                             the telecommunications and independent power 
                             producing industries.  When these conditions 
                             are present, we seek to purchase bonds of 
                             companies whose assets are attractive on their 
                             own or to a higher-rated potential acquirer in 
                             the changing competitive environment.  
                             
                             Our final theme aims to invest in relatively 
                             liquid issues of large companies who are 
                             leaders in their industries.  We seek out 
                             investments in these companies in part because 
                             of their expected continued ability to access 
                             capital in these times of declining credit 
                             availability.  These companies are also likely 
                             to have the staying power to weather a period

  The Hartford Investment    Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
  Management Company (HIMCO) 
                             The average maturity and interest rate duration 
                             of the Fund remained longer than its benchmark 
                             index for 1998, resulting in price gains as 
                             Treasury yields declined by roughly a full 
                             percent during the year.  We began 1998 with a 
                             higher than average portfolio credit quality, 
                             and continued to increase Treasury holdings 
                             through September.  This contributed to the 
                             Fund's outperformance relative to its peer 
                             average during the credit market declines of 
                             the summer and early fall.  Although they were 
                             relatively minimal, the fund's holdings in 
                             non-investment grade debt offset some of the 
                             outperformance produced by its longer duration 
                             and high average credit quality.  A

                             Protected Secur-ities failed to produce the 
                             expected returns we anticipated, as their 
                             historically attractive real yields did not 
                             decline to the extent expected given 1998's  
                             significant decline in nominal Treasury yields. 
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             The domestic economy appears indecisive.        
                             Consumer-related indicators, such as retail     
                             sales and housing markets are booming, but      
                             inflation remains in check for now.   We        
                             believe any Federal Reserve easing bias will be 
                             delayed, and could be tempered by foreign       
                             influences, with the advent of the Euro and     
                             potential repatriation of assets to Japan.      
                             Corporate, asset-backed and mortgage-related    
                             fixed income securities are still at            
                             historically attractive levels, but pitfalls    
                             abound for the unwary.  For that reason, we     
                             expect to continue our high-average-credit-     
                             quality approach to management of the Fund.

                             provided a total return of  6.7% for the year 
                             ending December 31, 1998, versus 6.9% for the

                             Q.
  Timothy J. Wilhide         Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
  Senior Vice President      
  The Hartford Investment    Fixed Income yields declined by about one      
  Management Company (HIMCO) percentage point during the year as the Federal
                             Reserve lowered interest rates to ease the     
                             effects of the worldwide financial crises on   
                             the United States economy.   All domestic bond 
                             sectors performed well as a result, although   
                             the best returns were on U.S. Treasury         
                             securities which benefited from their perceived
                             "safe haven" status during the turmoil.        
                             Mortgage securities lagged the total returns of
                             U.S. Treasuries as investors feared the risks  
                             of early principal repayments due to widespread
                             homeowner refinancings.  For example, the 1998 
                             total return of intermediate maturity U.S.     
                             Treasury securities, as measured by the Lehman 
                             Bros. Index, was 8.62% while the Lehman Bros.  
                             Mortgage Securities Index earned 6.96%.        
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             A silver lining to the underperformance of    
                             mortgage securities is that they now offer a  
                             yield advantage over U.S. Treasury and many   
                             corporate investment grade securities which

  RICK B. JONES, CFA         Q.
  Vice President             How Did The Fund Perform?
  Branch Banking & Trust Co. 
                             The BB&T Growth & Income Variable Annuity Fund  
                             provided a total return of 13.36% for the       
                             12-month period ending December 31, 1998.  In   
                             comparison, the Lipper Growth & Income Variable 
                             Annuity-Underlying Fund average gained 16.37%.  
                             
                             Q.
                             Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?

                             Although we're not pure value managers, we do 
                             have a strong, diversified value bias; we 
                             pursue stocks we consider reasonably priced.  
                             However, last year's stock market did not 
                             reward a value orientation.  Stocks were led by 
                             two distinct groups: the type of 
                             large-capitalization, growth names that 
                             generally don't fit our style, and Internet 
                             stocks that were valued at levels we found hard 
                             to support.  While some investors see a 
                             tremendous future for the Internet, a lot of 
                             the companies in that sector aren't going to 
                             earn money for the next two or three years.  
                             Many will never justify the stratospheric 
                             market capitalizations they now enjoy.  We 
                             believe that, in the end, there are going to be 
                             a lot more losers than winners, and we're not 
                             comfortable risking our investors' money on 
                             that type of gamble.  As always, our goal is to 
                             achieve competitive returns over a full market 
                             cycle, but with less risk.
                             
                             As of December 31, 1998 the portfolio's five 
                             largest holdings were: Johnson & Johnson, 
                             Anheuser Busch, SUPERVALU, SBC Communications 
                             and AT&T.
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             We're going to approach the coming year the 
                             same way we approached last year.  We are 
                             long-term investors.  We pay little or no 
                             attention to what the stocks or sectors are 
                             "hot" at any given time.  We will continue to 
                             practice the diversified value strategy our 
                             shareholders expect.  We will focus on

  CHRISTOPHER WILES, CFA     Q.
  President                  How Did The Fund Perform?
  Rockhaven Asset Management 
                             The AmSouth Equity Income Variable Annuity Fund 
                             provided a total return of 12.36% for the 
                             12-month period ending December 31, 1998.  

                             Q.
                             Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
                             
                             The first six months of 1998, the market 
                             rewarded top-line revenue growth.  We're 
                             entering a period of very low inflation, or 
                             perhaps even disinflation.  In this type of 
                             environment, the ability to grow revenues is 
                             critical.  After a difficult first half of 
                             1998, we started to focus on companies that 
                             could deliver robust revenue growth going 
                             forward.  Some of the stocks we bought included 
                             Monstanto, in the basic material sector, 
                             Perkin-Elmer, a healthcare company that 
                             provides the instrumentation and computers 
                             needed to map DNA; Costco, the retailing 
                             company; and Disney, which we bought at year 
                             end.
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                             
                             First of all, because of the very narrow 
                             leadership in the stock market and the very 
                             high valuations many of the largest stocks 
                             carry, we believe we're in for another 
                             roller-coaster ride.  We would be surprised if 
                             we didn't have at least one significant 
                             correction of 10% or more.  Also, the 
                             disinflation that's going on globally, the Y2K 
                             problem, the Internet -- all these factors 
                             could benefit larger, stronger companies, 
                             rather than smaller ones.  In this next year, 
                             we'll maintain our focus on those larger-cap, 
                             healthy multi-nationals that can deliver solid 
Performance Overview         revenue growth.  And even though the market has

                              The past year has been one of the more 
                              turbulent periods for small-cap stocks.  
                              Small-cap performance lagged large-cap 
                              performance despite one of the greatest 
                              divergences in earning growth rates between 
                              these two groups of stocks.  Earnings of 
                              small-cap growth companies continued to expand 
                              at strong rates, while large-cap company 
                              earnings slowed sharply.  Volatility remained 
                              at high levels throughout the year for all 
                              small-caps.  In addition, uncertainties 
                              surrounding the outlook for the economy kept 
                              pressure on small-cap performance, as the 
                              impact of economic and Federal Reserve 
                              uncertainties culminated in a plunge in most 
                              markets during late September and the first 
                              week in October.  Low year-end valuations 
                              existed despite the very strong performance of 
                              small-cap stocks coming off the market bottom 
                              in early October.
                              
                              Q.
                              What Is Your Outlook For 1999?
                              
                              We believe that the outlook for the Portfolio 
                              is positive.  Conversations with our companies' 
                              management leads us to the conclusion that, on 
                              the whole, earnings results for 1999 will 
                              continue the strong gains that we saw in 1998.  
                              While there are pockets of economic weakness in 
                              price-sensitive areas such as retailing, the 
                              management of early cyclical stocks such as 
                              trucking firms, regional airlines, and radio 
                              broadcasters tells us that the business outlook 
                              for the first half of 1999 is quite good.  The 
                              expected earnings growth rate of our stocks on 
                              average is 35% for the next 12 months, while 
                              the P/E ratio of the Portfolio is at a 25% 
                              discount to this growth rate.  When compared to 
                              the expected flat earnings growth of large-cap 
Performance Overview          companies and record high P/E ratios of that

                             Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
  MARGARET RODDAN            
  Europe Team Leader         We added value through superior stock selection
  Perpetual, PLC             in Japan and Continental Europe, but lost a    
                             portion of that through our UK stock selection.
  MARK TURNER                The major portfolio change that we implemented 
  Latin America Team Leader  during the quarter occurred in early November  
  Perpetual, PLC             when we moved 10% of the Portfolio out of      
                             Continental Europe, reinvesting the proceeds   
                             in Japan, Asia and small-cap UK stocks.  Our   
                             assessment was that some European markets were 
                             beginning to over-discount the potential       
                             short-term benefits from the establishment of  
                             the Euro. On the other hand, recessionary      
                             conditions throughout Asia were producing      
                             attractive investment opportunities.  The      
                             consequences of this strategy will become      
                             apparent during the next few months and will   
                             depend significantly on evidence that Japanese 
                             domestic consumption is beginning to recover.

                             The critical questions for international 
                             markets over the coming months will be the 
                             behavior of the U.S. consumer and to what 
                             extent that behavior is dependent on buoyant 
                             stock markets and easy U.S. monetary 
                             conditions.  Suffice it to say that the U.S. 
                             can be described as the world's "consumer of 
                             last resort," providing markets for everything 
                             from Brazilian steel to plastic and electronic 
                             toys made in China.  If the apparent 
                             super-valuation of segments of the U.S. market 
                             were to reverse course, and the U.S. consumer 
                             ceased to be the beneficiary of capital gains 
                             to match credit purchases, investors around the

  Vice President             
  Mentor Investment Group    Q.
                             Why Did The Fund Perform This Way?
  STEVE CERTO                
  Vice President             The market's recent advances have been very   
  Mentor Investment Group    narrow, with the gains becoming increasingly  
                             concentrated in fewer and fewer mega-cap 
                             stocks, stocks that represent the top 50 in the 
                             S&P 500.  Although we have not been as 
                             concentrated in the largest-capitalization 
                             growth stocks as the S&P 500, our performance 
                             has held up well.  If these largest growth 
                             stocks stop outperforming the broader market, 
                             as we strongly believe will happen, our 
                             relative performance could benefit 
                             significantly.   We continue to own strong 
                             companies that we believe can grow their 
                             earnings, on average, at solid above-average 
                             rates.   Also, we own these stocks at what we 
                             believe are relatively attractive valuations.
                             
                             Q.
                             What Is Your Outlook For 1999?

                             It is impossible to predict where the stock 
                             market will go in 1999.   We do want to caution 
                             that, much like the second half of 1998, the 
                             ingredients are in place for a potentially very 
                             volatile year in 1999.  Valuations are high, 
                             expectations are high, and the economic and 
                             corporate environments are quite fluid.  
                             Regardless of the 1999 market environment, we 
                             will continue to focus on our proven, 
                             fundamental strategy of holding a diversified 
Performance Overview         group of reasonably-valued quality companies 
3/3/98 - 12/31/98            capable of sustaining above-average long-term

 The performance figures for mutual funds do not include insurance charges that
 are included in the unit values of individual plans.
 
 Total return consists of any change in the market price of securities owned by
 the various mutual funds, as well as income from dividends or interest.
 Calculations assume reinvestment of income. Performance figures represent past
 results and are not a guarantee of future performance. An investor's unit when
 redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Results do not
 take into account personal income taxes and capital gains where applicable.
 Market indices are included as a broad measure of market performance, and no
 direct comparison with funds is intended.

 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
 1.  ORGANIZATION:
 
    Separate Account Two (the Account) is a separate investment account within
    Hartford Life Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered with the
    Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust under
    the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and the
    Account are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of
    Insurance of the State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests
    deposits by variable annuity contractholders of the Company in various
    mutual funds (the Funds) as directed by the contractholders.
 
 2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
    Account, which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles in the investment company industry:
 
   a)  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS--Security transactions are recorded on the trade
       date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Cost of investments
       sold is determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend and capital
       gains income are accrued as of the ex-dividend date. Capital gains income
       represents those dividends from the Funds which are characterized as
       capital gains under tax regulations.
 
   b)  SECURITY VALUATION--The investments in shares of the Funds are valued at
       the closing net asset value per share as determined by the appropriate
       Fund as of December 31, 1998.
 
   c)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--The operations of the Account form a part of, and
       are taxed with, the total operations of the Company, which is taxed as an
       insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no
       federal income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the
       Account.
 
   d)  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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported
       amounts of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in
       the future could vary from the amounts derived from management's
       estimates.
 
 3.  ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND RELATED CHARGES:
    Deduction and Charges -- Certain amounts are deducted from the Contracts, as
    described below:
 
   a)  MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGES--The Company will make deductions at a
       maximum annual rate of 1.50% of the Contract's value for the mortality
       and expense risks which the Company undertakes.
 
   b)  TAX EXPENSE CHARGE--If applicable, the Company will make deductions at a
       maximum rate of 4.0% of the Contract's value to meet premium tax
       requirements. An additional tax charge based on a percentage of the
       Contract's value may be assessed to partial withdrawals or surrenders.
       These expenses are reflected in surrenders for benefit payments and fees
       on the accompanying statements of changes in net assets.
 
   c)  ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE--An annual maintenance fee in the amount of $30
       may be deducted from the Contract's value each contract year. However,
       this fee is not applicable to contracts with values of $50,000 or more,
       as determined on the most recent contract anniversary. These expenses are
       reflected in surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying
       statements of changes in net assets.
 
 4.  HARTFORD U.S. GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND:
 
    One June 27, 1997, the Hartford U.S. Government Money Market Fund was merged
    with the HVA Money Market Fund. Accordingly, all contractholder account
    values held in the Hartford U.S. Government Money Market Fund were exchanged
    for equivalent account values of HVA Money Market Fund on June 27, 1997.

 SEPARATE ACCOUNT ONE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
 1.  ORGANIZATION:
 
    Separate Account One (the Account) is a separate investment account within
    Hartford Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered
    with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust
    under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and
    the Account are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of
    Insurance of the State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests
    deposits by variable annuity contractholders of the Company in various
    mutual funds (The Funds) as directed by the contractholders.
 
 2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
    Account, which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles in the investment company industry:
 
   a)  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS--Security transactions are recorded on the trade
       date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Cost of investments
       sold is determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend and capital
       gains income is accrued as of the ex-dividend date. Capital gains income
       represents those dividends from the Funds which are characterized as
       capital gains under tax regulations.
 
   b)  SECURITY VALUATION--The investments in shares of the Funds are valued at
       the closing net asset value per share as determined by the appropriate
       Fund as of December 31, 1998
 
   c)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--The operations of the Account form a part of, and
       are taxed with, the total operations of the Company, which is taxed as an
       insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no
       federal income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the
       Account.
 
   d)  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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported
       amounts of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in
       the future could vary from the amounts derived from management's
       estimates.
 
 3.  ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND RELATED CHARGES:
 
    Deduction and Charges -- Certain amounts are deducted from the Contracts on
    a monthly basis, as described below:
 
   a)  MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGES--The Company will make deductions at a
       maximum annual rate of 1.50% of the Contract's value for the mortality
       and expense risks which the Company undertakes.
 
   b)  TAX EXPENSE CHARGE--If applicable, the Company will make deductions at a
       maximum rate of 4.0% of the Contract's value to meet premium tax
       requirements. An additional tax charge based on a percentage of the
       Contract's value may be assessed to partial withdrawals or surrenders.
       These expenses are included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees
       in the accompanying statements of changes in net assets.
 
   c)  ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE--An annual maintenance fee in the amount of $30
       may be deducted from the Contract's value each contract year. However,
       this fee is not applicable to contracts with values of $50,000 or more,
       as determined on the most recent contract anniversary. These expenses are
       included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees in the accompanying
       statements of changes in net assets.

 SEPARATE ACCOUNT FIVE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 HARTFORD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
 1.  ORGANIZATION:
 
    Separate Account Five (the Account) is a separate investment account within
    Hartford Life Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered with the
    Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust under
    the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and the
    Account are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of
    Insurance of the State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests
    deposits by variable life contractholders of the Company in various mutual
    funds (The Funds) as directed by the contractholders.
 
 2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
    Account, which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles in the investment company industry:
 
   a)  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS--Security transactions are recorded on the trade
       date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Cost of investments
       sold is determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend and capital
       gains income is accrued as of the ex-dividend date. Capital gains income
       represents those dividends from the Funds which are characterized as
       capital gains under tax regulations.
 
   b)  SECURITY VALUATION--The investments in shares of the Funds are valued at
       the closing net asset value per share as determined by the appropriate
       Fund as of December 31, 1998
 
   c)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--The operations of the Account form a part of, and
       are taxed with, the total operations of the Company, which is taxed as an
       insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no
       federal income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the
       Account.
 
   d)  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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported
       amounts of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in
       the future could vary from the amounts derived from management's
       estimates.
 
 3.  ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND RELATED CHARGES:
 
    Deduction and Charges -- Certain amounts are deducted from the Contracts, as
    described below:
 
   a)  COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE--In accordance with terms of the contracts, the
       Company makes deductions for costs of insurance to cover the Company's
       anticipated mortality costs. Because a policy's account value and death
       benefit may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance charge may
       also vary.
 
   b)  MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGES--The Company will make deductions at a
       maximum annual rate of 0.90% of the Contract's value for the mortality
       and expense risks which the Company undertakes. These expenses are
       included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying
       statements of changes in net assets.
 
   c)  TAX EXPENSE CHARGE--If applicable, the Company will make deductions at a
       maximum rate of 4.0% of the Contract's value to meet premium tax
       requirements. An additional tax charge based on a percentage of the
       Contract's value may be assessed to partial withdrawals or surrenders.
       These expenses are included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees
       on the accompanying statements of changes in net assets.
 
   d)  ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE--The Company will make deductions to cover
       administrative expenses at a maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the
       Contract's value. These expenses are included in surrenders for benefit
       payments and fees on the accompanying statements of changes in net
       assets.
 
   e)  ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE--An annual maintenance fee in the amount of $30
       may be deducted from the Contract's value each contract year. However,
       this fee is not applicable to contracts with values of $50,000 or more,
       as determined on the most recent contract anniversary. These expenses are
       included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying
       statements of changes in net assets.

 HARTFORD LIFE AND ANNUITY INSURANCE COMPANY
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
 1.  ORGANIZATION:
 
    Separate Account Five (the Account) is a separate investment account within
    Hartford Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the Company) and is registered
    with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as a unit investment trust
    under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Both the Company and
    the Account are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department of
    Insurance of the State of Connecticut and the SEC. The Account invests
    deposits by variable life contractholders of the Company in various mutual
    funds (The Funds) as directed by the contractholders.
 
 2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
    Account, which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles in the investment company industry:
 
   a)  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS--Security transactions are recorded on the trade
       date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Cost of investments
       sold is determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend and capital
       gains income is accrued as of the ex-dividend date. Capital gains income
       represents those dividends from the Funds which are characterized as
       capital gains under tax regulations.
 
   b)  SECURITY VALUATION--The investments in shares of The Funds are valued at
       the closing net asset value per share as determined by the appropriate
       Fund as of December 31, 1998.
 
   c)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--The operations of the Account form a part of, and
       are taxed with, the total operations of the Company, which is taxed as an
       insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no
       federal income taxes are payable with respect to the operations of the
       Account.
 
   d)  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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported
       amounts of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in
       the future could vary from the amounts derived from management's
       estimates.
 
 3.  ADMINISTRATION OF THE ACCOUNT AND RELATED CHARGES:
 
    Deduction and Charges -- Certain amounts are deducted from the Contracts, as
    described below:
 
   a)  COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE--In accordance with terms of the contracts, the
       Company makes deductions for costs of insurance to cover the Company's
       anticipated mortality costs. Because a policy's account value and death
       benefit may vary from month to month, the cost of insurance charge may
       also vary.
 
   b)  MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGES--The Company will make deductions at a
       maximum annual rate of 0.90% of the Contract's value for the mortality
       and expense risks which the Company undertakes. These expenses are
       included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying
       statements of changes in net assets.
 
   c)  TAX EXPENSE CHARGE--If applicable, the Company will make deductions at a
       maximum rate of 4.0% of the Contract's value to meet premium tax
       requirements. An additional tax charge based on a percentage of the
       Contract's value may be assessed to partial withdrawals or surrenders.
       These expenses are included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees
       on the accompanying statements of changes in net assets.
 
   d)  ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGE--The Company will make deductions to cover
       administrative expenses at a maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the
       Contract's value. These expenses are included in surrenders for benefit
       payments and fees on the accompanying statements of changes in net
       assets.
 
   e)  ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE--An annual maintenance fee in the amount of $30
       may be deducted from the Contract's value each contract year. However,
       this fee is not applicable to contracts with values of $50,000 or more,
       as determined on the most recent contract anniversary. These expenses are
       included in surrenders for benefit payments and fees on the accompanying
       statements of changes in net assets.

    accordance with rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
    amended.
 
 2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Funds,
    which are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
    investment company industry:
 
    a)  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS--Security transactions are recorded on the trade
date (the day the order to buy or sell is executed). Security gains and losses
      are determined on the basis of identified cost.
 
    b)  SECURITY VALUATION--Debt securities (other than short-term obligations
are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by an unaffiliated pricing
      service which determines valuations for normal institutional size trading
      units of debt securities. Mortgage securities are valued at the bid price.
      Short-term securities held in Hartford Money Market HLS Fund, Inc. are
      valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest
      receivable, both of which approximate market value. In the remaining
      Funds, short-term investments purchased with a maturity of 60 days or less
      are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Short-term
      investments purchased with a maturity of more than 60 days are valued
      based on market quotations until the remaining days to maturity become
      less than 61 days. From such time until maturity, the investments are
      valued at amortized cost.
 
      Equity securities are valued at the last sales price reported on principal
      securities exchanges on which such securities are traded (domestic or
      foreign) or on the principal over-the-counter market on which such
      securities are traded as of the close of business on the day the
      securities are being valued. If no sale occurred on a particular day and
      in the case of certain equity securities traded over-the-counter, then
      such securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices.
      Securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars
      at the prevailing exchange rates at the end of each business day. Options
      are valued at the last sales price; if no sale took place on such day,
      then options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices.
      Securities for which market quotations are not readily available and all
      other assets are valued in good faith at their fair values under the
      direction of, the Funds' Board of Directors.
 
    c)  FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS--The accounting records of the Funds are
maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities initially expressed in
      foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars at the prevailing
      exchange rates.

 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
      Purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income
      and certain expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on
      the respective dates of such transactions.
 
      The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations
      resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rates on investments from
      the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities
      held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized
      gain or loss on investments in the accompanying financial statements.
 
      Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign
      currencies and the difference between asset and liability amounts
      initially stated in foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar value of the
      amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains
      or losses arise from changes in the value of other assets and liabilities
      at the end of the reporting period, resulting from changes in the exchange
      rates.
 
    d)  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--A repurchase agreement is an agreement by which
the seller of a security agrees to repurchase the security sold at a mutually
      agreed upon time and price. At the time the Funds enter into a repurchase
      agreement, the value of the underlying collateral security(ies), including
      accrued interest, will be equal to or exceed the value of the repurchase
      agreement and, in the case of repurchase agreements exceeding one day, the
      value of the underlying security(ies), including accrued interest, is
      required during the term of the agreement to be equal to or exceed the
      value of the repurchase agreement. Securities which serve to collateralize
      the repurchase agreement are held by each Fund's custodian in book entry
      or physical form in the custodial account of the Fund. Repurchase
      agreements are valued at cost plus accrued interest receivable.
 
    e)  JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT--Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC,
the Funds may transfer uninvested cash balances into a joint trading account
      managed by The Hartford Investment Management Company (HIMCO) or
      Wellington Management Company, LLP (Wellington). These balances may be
      invested in one or more repurchase agreements and/or short-term money
      market instruments.
 
    f)  FUTURES, OPTIONS ON FUTURES AND OPTIONS TRANSACTIONS--The Funds enter
into futures contracts to retain their cash balance and yet be exposed to the
      market, thereby providing the liquidity necessary to accommodate
      redemptions while at the same time providing shareholders with the
      investment return of a fully invested portfolio. A futures contract is an
      agreement between two parties to buy and sell a security at a set price on
      a future date. When the Funds enter into such contracts, they are required
      to deposit with their custodian an amount of "initial margin" of cash or
      U.S. Treasury bills. Subsequent payments, called maintenance margin, to
      and from the broker-dealer, are made on a daily basis as the price of the
      underlying debt security fluctuates, making the long and short positions
      in the futures contract more or less valuable (i.e., mark-to-market),
      which results in an unrealized gain or loss to the Funds. The market value
      of a traded futures contract is the last sale price. In the absence of a
      last sale price, the last offering price is used. In the absence of either
      of these prices, fair value is determined according to procedures
      established by the Funds' Board of Directors. The variation margin on
      futures contracts is included in excess of cash, receivables and other
      assets over liabilities, or excess of liabilities over cash, receivables
      and other assets, as applicable, in each Funds' Statement of Net Assets.
 
      At any time prior to the expiration of the futures contract, the Funds may
      close the position by taking an opposite position which would operate to
      terminate the position in the futures contract. A final determination of
      maintenance margin is then made, additional cash is required to be paid by
      or released to the Funds and the Funds realize a gain or loss.
 
      The premium paid by the Fund for the purchase of a call or put option is
      included in the Fund's Statement of Net Assets as excess of cash,
      receivables and other assets over liabilities or excess of liabilities
      over cash, receivables and other assets and subsequently
      "marked-to-market" to reflect the current market value of the option
      purchased as of the end of the reporting period. If an option which the
      Fund has purchased expires on its stipulated expiration date, the Fund
      realizes a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If the Fund
      enters into a closing transaction, it realizes a gain or loss, depending
      on whether the proceeds from the sale are greater or less than the cost of
      the option. If the Fund exercises a put option, it realizes a gain or loss
      from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale
      will be decreased by the premium originally paid. If the Fund exercises a
      call option, the cost of the security which the Fund purchases upon
      exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid to buy the call.
 
                                     MF-58
<PAGE>
      The funds may write covered options. "Covered" means that so long as the
      Fund is obligated as the writer of an option, it will own either the
      underlying securities or currency or an option to purchase or sell the
      same underlying securities or currency having an expiration date of the
      covered option at an exercise price equal to or less than the exercise
      price of the covered option, or will establish or maintain with its
      custodian for the term of the option a "segregated account" consisting of
      cash or other liquid securities having a value equal to the fluctuating
      market value of the option securities or currencies. The Fund receives a
      premium from writing a call or put option, which increases the Fund's
      return if the option expires unexercised or is closed out at a net profit.
      The Funds' option activity was as follows during 1998:

    g)  FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS--As of December 31, 1998, Hartford
International Opportunities HLS Fund, Inc. and Hartford International Advisers
      HLS Fund, Inc., had entered into forward foreign currency exchange
      contracts that obligate the Funds to repurchase/replace or sell currencies
      at specified future dates. The Funds enter into forward foreign currency
      contracts to hedge against adverse fluctuations in exchange rates between
      currencies. The forward foreign currency contracts' costs are included in
      excess of cash, receivables and other assets over liabilities or excess of
      liabilities over cash, receivables and other assets, as applicable, in the
      Funds' Statement of Net Assets.
 
      Forward foreign currency contracts involve elements of market risk in
      excess of the amount reflected in the Statement of Net Assets. In
      addition, risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the
      potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of the
      contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign
      currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
 
    h)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--For federal income tax purposes, the Funds intend
to continue to qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of
      the Internal Revenue Code by distributing substantially all of their
      taxable net investment income and net realized capital gains to their
      shareholders or otherwise complying with the requirements of regulated
      investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes
      has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
 
     i)  FUND SHARE VALUATION AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS--Orders for the
Funds' shares are executed in accordance with the investment instructions of the
      contract holders. Dividend income is accrued as of the ex-dividend date,
      except that certain dividends for foreign securities where the ex-dividend
      date may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the
      ex-dividend data in the exercise of due diligence. Interest income and
      expenses are accrued on a daily basis. The net asset value of each Fund's
      shares is determined as of the close of each business day

      of the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange). Orders for the purchase of
      a Fund's shares received prior to the close of the Exchange on any day on
      which the Fund is open for business are priced at the per-share net asset
      value determined as of the close of the Exchange. Orders received after
      the close of the Exchange, or on a day on which the Exchange and/or the
      Fund is not open for business, are priced at the next determined per-share
      net asset value.
 
      Dividends are declared by the Funds' Board of Directors based upon the
      investment performance of the respective Funds. The policy of all funds
      except the Hartford Money Market HLS Fund, Inc. is to pay dividends from
      net investment income and distribute realized capital gains, if any,
      annually.
 
      Hartford Money Market HLS Fund, Inc. seeks to maintain a stable net asset
      value per share of $1.00 by declaring a daily dividend from net investment
      income, including net short-term capital gains and losses, and by valuing
      its investments using the amortized cost method. Dividends are distributed
      monthly.
 
      Distributions from net investment income, realized capital gains and
      capital are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations
      which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
      differences include the treatment of non-taxable dividends, expiring
      capital loss carryforwards, foreign currency gains and losses,
      partnerships, losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax
      regulations. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to
      shareholder distributions result in reclassifications to capital accounts
      (see Note 7).
 
     j)  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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported
      amounts of income and expenses during the period. Operating results in the
      future could vary from the amounts derived from management's estimates.
 
    k)  RESTRICTED SECURITIES--Each Fund is permitted to invest up to 15% of its
net assets in illiquid securities, except for Money Market HLS Fund, Inc., which
      may invest up to 10% in such securities. "Illiquid Securities" are those
      that may not be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business, at
      approximately the price used to determine a Fund's net asset value per
      share. Each Fund may also purchase certain restricted securities, commonly
      known as Rule 144A securities, that can be resold to institutions and
      which may be determined to be liquid pursuant to policies and guidelines
      established by the Funds' Board of Directors.
 
      At December 31, 1998, the Funds held the following restricted securities
      (excluding 144A issues):

 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
      furnish reports to the Funds' Board of Directors concerning economic
      forecasts, investment strategy, portfolio activity and performance of the
      Funds.
 
    b)  ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT--Under the Administrative Services
Agreement between Hartford Life Insurance Company (HL and each of the Funds, HL
      provides administrative services to the Funds and receives monthly
      compensation at the annual rate of .175% of each Fund's average daily net
      assets. The Funds assume and pay certain other expenses (including, but
      not limited to, shareholder accounting, state taxes and directors' fees).
      Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to directors not
      affiliated with HL or any other related company.
 
    c)  OPERATING EXPENSES--Allocable expenses of the Funds are charged to each
Fund based on the ratio of the net assets of each fund to the combined net
      assets of the Funds. Nonallocable expenses are charged to each fund based
      on specific identification.
 
    d)  EXPENSE OFFSET--The Funds have entered into certain expense offset
arrangements with the Custodian Bank. The amount of the Funds' expense
      reductions is shown on the accompanying statements of operations as
      Custodian expense offset.
 
    e)  DISTRIBUTION PLAN FOR CLASS IB SHARES--Each Fund has adopted a
Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for the Class IB
      shares. Pursuant to the Distribution Plan, each Fund compensates the
      Distributor from assets attributable to the Class IB shares for services
      rendered and expenses borne in connection with activities primarily
      intended to result in the sale of the Class IB shares.
 
      Although the Distribution Plan provides that each Fund may pay annually up
      to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of a Fund attributable to its
      Class IB shares for activities primarily intended to result in the sale of
      Class IB shares, the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive .07% of
      the fee. This waiver may be withdrawn at any time after notice to
      shareholders. Under the terms of the Distribution Plan and the principal
      underwriting agreement, each Fund is authorized to make payments monthly
      to the Distributor which may be used to pay or reimburse entities
      providing distribution and shareholder servicing with respect to the Class
      IB shares for such entities' fees or expenses incurred or paid in that
      regard.

 7.  RECLASSIFICATION OF CAPITAL ACCOUNTS:
 
    In accordance with AICPA statement of position 93-2, DETERMINATION,
    DISCLOSURE, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION OF INCOME, CAPITAL GAIN,
    AND RETURN OF CAPITAL DISTRIBUTIONS BY INVESTMENT COMPANIES, the Funds have
    recorded several reclassifications in their capital accounts. These
    reclassifications had no impact on the net asset value per shares of the
    Funds and are designed generally to present undistributed income and
    realized gains on a tax basis which is considered to be more informative to
    the shareholder. The reclassifications are a result of temporary and
    permanent differences between GAAP and tax accounting as a result of losses
    on wash sale transactions, paydown gains and losses on mortgage-backed
    securities, foreign currency gains and losses, post October loss deferrals
    and realized and unrealized gains and losses on passive foreign investment
    companies. Therefore, the source of the Funds' distributions may be shown in
    the accompanying statement of changes in net assets as from, or in excess of
    net investment income, from, or in excess of net

 11. EUROPEAN MONETARY UNION:
 
    On January 1, 1999, the European Monetary Union "EMU" introduced a new
    single currency, the euro, which will replace the national currencies of the
    participating members countries. Until 2002, the national currencies will
    continue to exist, but exchange rates will be tied to the euro. The
    introduction of the euro is likely to affect all stages of the investment
    process, including trading, foreign exchange and accounting. Because this
    change to a single currency is new, the introduction of the euro may result
    in market volatility and may affect the business or financial conditions of
    European issuers or of a Portfolio investing in European issuers. In
    addition, while the conversion will eliminate currency risk among the
    participating nations, currency risk between the euro and the U.S. dollar
    remains a factor.
 
 12. LINE OF CREDIT:
 
    The Funds participate in a $500,000,000 committed revolving line of credit
    facility. The facility is to be used for temporary or emergency purposes.
    Under the arrangement, the Funds are required to own securities having a
    market value in excess of 300% of the total bank borrowings. The interest
    rate on borrowings varies depending on the nature of the loan. The facility
    also requires a fee to be paid based on the amount of the commitment which
    has not been utilized. During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Funds
    did not have any borrowings under these facilities.

 BB&T GROWTH & INCOME FUND
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
 1.  ORGANIZATION:
 
    The BB&T Variable Insurance Funds (the "Trust") was organized on July 20,
    1994, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
    (the "Act"), as an open-end investment company established as a
    Massachusetts business trust. Between the date of organization and the dates
    of commencement of operations (June 3, 1997), the Trust had no operations
    other than incurring organizational expenses and the sale of initial units
    of beneficial interest ("shares").
 
    The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial
    interest without par value. The Trust presently offers shares of the BB&T
    Growth & Income Fund (The "Fund"). Shares of the Fund are offered to a
    separate account of Hartford Life Insurance Company, as well as other
    eligible purchasers.
 
    The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide capital growth,
    current income or both. Under normal market conditions, it seeks this
    objective by investing at least 65% of its total assets in stocks, which for
    this purpose may include common stock, preferred stock, warrants, or debt
    instruments that are, convertible into common stock.
 
 2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
    the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
    in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation
    of financial statements requires management to make estimates and
    assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at
    the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and
    expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
    SECURITIES VALUATION--Exchange listed securities are valued at the closing
    sales price on the exchange on the day of computation, or, if there have
    been no sales during such day, at the latest bid quotation. Unlisted
    securities are valued at their latest bid quotation in their principal
    market. If no such bid price is available, then such securities are valued
    in good faith at their respective fair market values using methods
    determined by or under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Portfolio
    securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued either at
    amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, which approximates
    current value.
 
    All other assets and securities, including securities for which market
    quotations are not readily available, are valued at their fair market value
    as determined in good faith under the general supervision of the Board of
    Trustees.
 
    SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME--Securities transactions are
    accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date).
    Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where
    applicable, the pro rata amortization of premium or discount. Dividend
    income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on
    sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the
    security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.
 
    DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS--Dividends from net investment income are
    declared and paid quarterly for the Fund. Distributable net realized gains,
    if any are declared and distributed at least annually.
 
    The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions
    from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
    regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
    These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in
    nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such
    amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their
    federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require
    reclassification.
 
    Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net investment
    income and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but
    not for tax purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment
    income or distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the extent they
    exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they
    are reported as distributions of capital.
 
    FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--It is the policy of each Fund to qualify or continue
    to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the
    provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in
    applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions
    of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to
    relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes.
 
    ORGANIZATION COSTS--Costs incurred by the Fund in connection with its
    organization and registration of shares

 BB&T GROWTH & INCOME FUND
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
    have been deferred and are amortized using the straight-line method over a
    period of two years from June 3, 1997, the commencement of the public
    offering of shares of the Fund. In the event that any of the initial shares
    of the Fund are redeemed during the amortization period by any holder
    thereof, the redemption proceeds may be reduced by any unamortized
    organizational expenses of the Fund in the same proportion as the number of
    said shares the Fund being redeemed bears to the number of initial shares of
    the Fund of that fund that are outstanding at the time of redemption.
 
    OTHER--Expenses that are directly related to the Fund are charged directly
    to the Fund.
 
 3.  PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES:
 
    Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities, excluding
    short-term securities, were $15,915,127 and $1,024,098, respectively, for
    the year ended December 31, 1998.
 
 4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
 
    Investment advisory services are provided to the Fund by BB&T. Under the
    terms of the investment advisory agreement, BB&T is entitled to receive fees
    based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
 
    BISYS Fund Services Limited Partnership d/b/a BISYS Fund Services ("BISYS"),
    with whom certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated, serves
    the Trust as Administrator. Such officers and trustees are paid no fees
    directly by the Trust for serving as officers and trustees of the Trust.
    Under the terms of the Management and Administration Agreement between BISYS
    and the Trust, BISYS's fees are computed daily as a percentage of the
    average net assets of the Fund. BISYS also serves, without compensation, as
    Distributor of the Fund. BISYS Fund Services Ohio, Inc. ("BISYS Ohio")
    serves the Fund as Transfer agent and Mutual fund accountant. BISYS, an Ohio
    limited partnership, and BISYS Ohio are subsidiaries of The BISYS Group,
    Inc.
 
    Shares of the Trust are subject to a Variable Contract Owner Servicing Plan
    (the "Servicing Plan") permitting payment of the compensation to financial
    institutions that agree to provide certain administrative support services
    for their customers or account holders. The Fund has entered into a specific
    arrangement with BISYS for the provision of such services and reimburses
    BISYS for its cost of providing these services, subject to a maximum annual
    rate equal to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
 
    Fees may be voluntarily reduced or reimbursed to assist the Fund in
    maintaining competitive expense ratios. Information regarding these
    transactions is as follows for the year ended December 31, 1998:

 5.  FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED):
 
    CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARD-- At December 31, 1998 the Fund had net capital
    loss carryforwards in the amount of $53,728 which will be available through
    fiscal year end 2006 to offset future net capital gains, if any, to the
    extent provided by the Treasury regulations. To the extent that these
    carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that
    the gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders.
 
    DIVIDEND RECEIVED DEDUCTION--For corporate shareholders 93.60% of the total
    ordinary income distributions paid during the fiscal year ended December 31,
    1998 qualify for the corporate dividends received deduction.
 
    POST OCTOBER LOSS DEFERRAL--Capital losses incurred after October 31, within
    the Fund's fiscal year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the
    following fiscal year for tax purposes. The Fund has incurred and will elect
    to defer such capital losses of $6,175.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Shareholder and Trustees of
 
    The BB&T Growth and Income Fund:
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedules of portfolio investments, and the related statements of operations
and changes in net assets, and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the BB&T Growth and Income Fund,
(hereafter referred to as the "the Fund") at December 31, 1998, the results of
their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights
for each of the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit, which included
confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

 AMSOUTH EQUITY INCOME FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
  1. ORGANIZATION:
    The Variable Insurance Funds (the "Trust") was organized on July 20, 1994,
    and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
    "Act"), as a diversified, open-end management investment company established
    as a Massachusetts business trust. Between the date of organization and the
    date of commencement of Trust operations (October 23, 1997), the Trust had
    no operations other than incurring organizational expenses and the sale of
    initial units of beneficial interest ("shares").
 
    The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares without par
    value. The Trust currently offers shares of the AmSouth Equity Income Fund
    (the "Fund"). Shares of the Fund are offered to a separate account of
    Hartford Life Insurance Company, as well as other eligible purchasers.
 
    The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide above average
    income and capital appreciation. It seeks this objective by investing, under
    normal market conditions, at least 65% of its total assets in
    income-producing equity securities, including common stock, preferred stock,
    and securities that are convertible into common stocks, such as convertible
    bonds and convertible preferred stocks.
 
  2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
    the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
    in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The
    preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates
    and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
    at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income
    and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those
    estimates.
 
    SECURITIES VALUATION--Exchange-listed securities are valued at the closing
    price on the exchange on the day of computation, or, if there have been no
    sales during such day, at the latest bid quotation. Unlisted securities are
    valued at their latest bid quotation in their principal market. If no such
    bid is available, then such securities are valued in good faith at their
    respective fair market values using methods determined by or under the
    supervision of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Portfolio securities with a
    remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued either at amortized cost or
    original cost plus accrued interest, which approximates current value.
 
    SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME--Securities transactions are
    accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date).
    Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where
    applicable, the pro rata amortization of premium or discount. Dividend
    income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on
    sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the
    security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.
 
    DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS--Dividends from net investment income, if any, are
    declared and paid monthly for the Fund. Distributable net realized gains, if
    any, are declared and distributed at least annually.
 
    Dividends from net investment income and net realized capital gains are
    determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from
    GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of
    deferrals of certain losses.
 
    These "book/tax" differences are considered to be either temporary or
    permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in
    nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets
    based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not
    require reclassifications. Dividends and distributions to shareholders which
    exceed net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting
    purposes but not for tax purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net
    investment income or distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the
    extent they exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax
    purposes, they are reported as distribution of capital.
 
    As of December 31, 1998, the following reclassification have been made to
    increase (decrease) such accounts with offsetting adjustments made to
    additional paid-in-capital:

    FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--It is the intention of the Fund to qualify or continue
    to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the
    provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in
    applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions
    of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to
    relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes.
 
    ORGANIZATION COSTS--Costs incurred by the Fund in connection with its
    organization and registration of shares have been deferred and are amortized
    using the straight-line method over a period of two years from October 23,
    1997, the commencement of the public offering of shares of the Fund. In the
    event that any of the initial shares of the Fund are redeemed during the
    amortization period by any holder thereof, the redemption proceeds may be
    reduced by any unamortized organizational expenses of the Fund in

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Shareholder and Trustees of
 The AmSouth Equity Income Fund:
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedules of portfolio investments, and the related statements of operations
and changes in net assets, and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the AmSouth Equity Income Fund,
(hereafter referred to as the "the Fund") at December 31, 1998, the results of
their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights
for each of the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our aduit. We conducted our audit of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit, which included
confirmation and verification by examination of securities at December 31, 1998
and correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis

 MENTOR VARIABLE INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
 NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION
    Mentor Variable Investment Portfolios (the "Trust") is registered under the
    Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
    investment company. The Trust consists of five separate Portfolios
    (hereinafter each individually referred to as a Portfolio or collectively as
    the "Portfolios") at December 31, 1998, as follows:
 
        Mentor VIP Growth Portfolio
      ("Growth Portfolio")
    Mentor VIP Perpetual International Portfolio
      ("International Portfolio")
    Mentor VIP Capital Growth Portfolio
      ("Capital Growth Portfolio")
    Mentor VIP Strategy Portfolio
      ("Strategy Portfolio")
    Mentor VIP Balanced Portfolio
      ("Balanced Portfolio")
 
    These financial statements include only the Growth Portfolio, the
    International Portfolio and the Capital Growth Portfolio.
 
    The Portfolios shares are sold subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
    payable upon redemption which decreases depending on when shares were
    purchased and how long they have been held.
 
    The Growth Portfolio's investment objective is to seek long-term
    appreciation of capital through investments in a diversified portfolio of
    securities.
 
    The investment objective of the Capital Growth Portfolio is to provide
    long-term appreciation of capital by investing in a wide variety of
    securities which the investment advisor believes offers the potential for
    capital appreciation over both the intermediate and long-term.
 
    The International Portfolio's investment objective is to seek long-term
    appreciation of capital through investments in a diversified portfolio of
    securities of issuers located outside the United States.
 
 NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
    followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements.
    The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
    which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
    amounts reported therein. Although actual results could differ from these
    estimates, any such differences are expected to be immaterial to the net
    assets of the Portfolios.
 
   (a)  VALUATION OF SECURITIES--Listed securities held by the Growth Portfolio,
       the International Portfolio and the Capital Growth Portfolio traded on
       national stock exchanges and over-the-counter securities quoted on the
       NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last reported sales price
       or, lacking any sales, at the last available bid price. In cases where
       securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are
       valued on the exchange determined by the advisor of the Portfolios as the
       primary market. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market, other
       than those quoted on the NASDAQ National Market System, are valued at the
       last available bid price. Short-term investments with remaining
       maturities of 60 days or less are carried at amortized cost, which
       approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not
       readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
       under procedures established by the Board of Trustees.
 
       Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed
       in foreign currencies are converted each business day into U.S. dollars
       based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign
       investments, income, and expenses are converted into U.S. dollars based
       upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such
       transactions. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency
       transactions represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of
       forward currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, and
       currency gains and losses realized between the trade and the settlement
       dates on securities transactions. The effects of changes in foreign
       currency exchange rates on investments in securities are included with
       the net unrealized appreciation/depreciation of investment securities.
 
  (b)  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--It is the policy of the Trust to require the
       custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the
       Federal Reserve Book entry system all securities held as collateral in
       support of repurchase agreement investments. Additionally, procedures
       have been established by the Trust to monitor, on a daily basis, the
       market value of each repurchase agreement's underlying securities to
       ensure the existence of a proper level of collateral.
 
       The Trust will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other
       recognized financial institutions such as broker/dealers which are deemed
       by the Trust's advisor to be creditworthy pursuant to guidelines
       established by the Trustees.
 
____________________________________ MF-100 ____________________________________
<PAGE>
       Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor
       the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Trust could
       receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral
       securities.
 
   (c)  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME-- Security transactions for
       the Portfolios are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is
       recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the
       accrual basis. Interest income includes interest and discount earned (net
       of premium) on short-term obligations. Dividends to shareholders and
       capital gain distributions, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
 
  (d)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES--No provision for federal income taxes has been made
       since it is the Portfolios' policy to comply with the provisions
       applicable to regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue
       Code and to distribute to its shareholders within the allowable time
       limit substantially all taxable income and realized capital gains. At
       December 31, 1998, the Capital Growth Portfolio for federal tax purposes,
       had a capital loss carryforward of $429,186. Pursuant to the Internal
       Revenue Code, such capital loss carryforward expires on 12/31/05.
 
   (e)  DEFERRED EXPENSES--Costs incurred by the Portfolios in connection with
       their initial share registration and organization costs were deferred and
       are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a five-year period.
 
   (f)  DISTRIBUTIONS--Income distributions and capital gain distributions are
       determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ
       from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are
       primarily due to differing treatments for net operating losses and
       deferral of wash sales.
 
 NOTE 3: DIVIDENDS
 
    Dividends are declared and paid annually to all shareholders invested in the
    Growth Portfolio, the Capital Growth Portfolio and the International
    Portfolio. Dividends will be reinvested in additional shares of the
    Portfolios on payment dates at the ex-dividend date net asset value without
    a sales charge unless an election is made on behalf of a separate account to
    receive some or all distributions in cash. Capital gains realized by the
    Portfolios, if any, are paid annually.
 
 NOTE 4: INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION
       AGREEMENTS
    Mentor Investment Advisors, LLC ("Mentor Advisors"), is the investment
    advisor for the Growth Portfolio and the Capital Growth Portfolio. Mentor
    Advisors is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mentor Investment Group, LLC
    ("Mentor") which is in turn a partially owned subsidiary of Wheat First
    Union. EVEREN Capital Corporation owns 20% of the outstanding interest in
    Mentor.
 
    Mentor Advisors receives for its services an annual fee of 0.70% and 0.80%
    as a percentage of the average daily net assets of the Growth Portfolio and
    the Capital Growth Portfolio, respectively. For the period ended December
    31, 1998, Mentor Advisors earned $25,960 and $56,416 in advisory fees and
    waived $21,300 and $4,692 of such fees for the Growth Portfolio and Capital
    Growth Portfolio, respectively.
 
    The International Portfolio has entered into an Investment Advisory
    Agreement with Mentor Perpetual Advisors, LLC ("Mentor Perpetual"). Mentor
    Perpetual is owned equally by Mentor Investment Advisors, LLC and Perpetual
    plc., a diversified financial services holding company. Under this
    agreement, Mentor Perpetual's management fee is accrued daily and paid
    monthly at an annual rate of 1.00% applied to the average daily net assets
    of the International Portfolio. For the period ended December 31, 1998,
    Mentor Perpetual earned advisory fees of $43,460 and waived $42,172 of such
    fees.
 
    Administrative personnel and services are provided by Mentor Investment
    Group LLC ("Mentor"), under an Administration Agreement, at an annual rate
    of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolios. Mentor earned
    administration fees in the amount of $3,691, $4,323 and $7,018 for the
    Growth Portfolio, International Portfolio and Capital Growth Portfolio,
    respectively.
 
 NOTE 5: DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS
       WITH AFFILIATES
 
    The Portfolios have adopted a Distribution Plan (the Plan) pursuant to Rule
    12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under a Distribution
    Agreement between the Portfolios and Mentor Distributors, LLC ("Mentor
    Distributors") a wholly-owned subsidiary of BISYS Fund Services, Inc.,
    Mentor Distributors was appointed distributor of the Portfolios. To
    compensate Mentor Distributors for the services it provides and for the
    expenses it incurs under the Distribution Agreement, the Portfolios pay a
    distribution fee,

    which is accrued daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.25% of the
    Portfolios' average daily net assets. For the period ended December 31,
    1998, Mentor Distributors waived such fees in the amount of $9,226, $10,807
    and $17,544 for the Growth Portfolio, International Portfolio and Capital
    Growth Portfolio, respectively.
 
 NOTE 6: FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS
 
    In connection with portfolio purchases and sales of securities denominated
    in a foreign currency, the International Portfolio may enter into forward
    foreign currency exchange contracts (contracts). Additionally, from time to
    time the International Portfolio may enter into contracts to hedge certain
    foreign currency assets. Contracts are recorded at market value. Realized
    gains and losses arising from such transactions are included in net gain
    (loss) on investments and forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The
    International Portfolio is subject to the credit risk that the other party
    will not complete the obligations of the contract. At December 31, 1998, the
    International Portfolio had outstanding forward contracts as set forth
    below.

    YEAR 2000
 
    The Portfolios receive services from a number of providers which rely on the
    effective functioning of their respective systems and the systems of others
    to perform those services. It is generally recognized that certain systems
    in use today may not be able to perform their intended functions adequately
    after the Year 1999 because of the inability of computer software to
    distinguish the Year 2000 from the Year 1900. Mentor Advisors is taking
    steps that it believes are reasonably designed to address this potential
    "Year 2000" problem and to obtain satisfactory assurances that comparable
    steps are being taken by each of the Portfolios' other major service
    providers. There can be no assurance, however, that these steps will be
    sufficient to avoid any adverse impact on the Portfolios from this problem.

 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 THE TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS
 MENTOR VARIABLE INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of Mentor VIP Growth Portfolio, Mentor VIP
Perpetual International Portfolio and Mentor VIP Capital Growth Portfolio,
portfolios of Mentor Variable Investment Portfolios as of December 31, 1998, and
the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and financial
highlights for the period from March 3, 1998 (inception date) through December
31, 1998. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Funds' 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, 1998 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 Mentor
VIP Growth Portfolio, Mentor VIP Perpetual International Portfolio and Mentor
VIP Capital Growth Portfolio, portfolios of Mentor Variable Investment
Portfolios as of December 31, 1998, the results of their operations, changes in
their net assets and financial highlights for the period from March 3, 1998
(inception date) through December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
