JUNE 30, 1996
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The WRL Series Life Account (the "Life Account") was established as a
variable life insurance separate account of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co.
of Ohio ("WRL") and is registered as a unit investment trust ("Trust") under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Life Account contains thirteen
investment options referred to as sub-accounts. Each sub-account invests in the
corresponding portfolio of the WRL Series Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), a registered
management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. These portfolios and their respective investment management
organizations are as follows:

WRL and AEGON Management are indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries of AEGON
USA, Inc., which is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AEGON nv, a
Netherlands corporation.
On May 1, 1996 WRL made an initial contribution to the Life Account. The
amount of the contribution and units received from the corresponding
sub-accounts are as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
SUB-ACCOUNT CONTRIBUTION UNITS
--------------- ------------ ------
<S> <C> <C>
C.A.S.E. Growth $ 25,000 2,500.000000
Value Equity 200,000 20,000.000000
</TABLE>
The Life Account holds assets to support the benefits under flexible
premium variable universal life insurance policies (the "Policies") issued by
WRL, which issued the first of such Policies on October 3, 1986. The Life
Account's equity transactions are accounted for using the appropriate effective
date at the corresponding accumulation unit value.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following significant accounting policies, which are in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for unit investment trusts, have been
consistently used in preparation of the Trust's financial statements.
A. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
The investments in the Fund's shares are stated at the closing net asset
value ("NAV") per share as determined by the Fund on June 30, 1996.
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date, using the Fund
NAV next determined after receipt of sale or redemption order without sales
charges. Dividend income and capital gain distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. The cost of investments sold is determined on a first-in,
first-out basis.
B. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The operations of the Life Account are a part of and are taxed with the
total operations of WRL, which is taxed as a life insurance company under
the Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, the investment income of the
Life Account, including realized and unrealized capital gains, is not
taxable to WRL. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been
made.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 2 - CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
Charges are assessed by WRL in connection with issuance and administration
of the Policies.
A. POLICY CHARGES
Under some forms of the Policies, sales and other administrative charges are
deducted by WRL prior to allocation of policyowner payments to the
sub-accounts. Thereafter, monthly administrative charges are deducted from
the sub-accounts, some of which continue only during the first policy year.
Contingent surrender charges may also apply.
Under the other forms of the Policies, such "front-end" and other
administrative charges are not deducted prior to allocation of the initial
premium payment but may reside as contingent surrender charges.
Under all forms of the Policy, monthly charges against policy cash values
are made to compensate WRL for costs of insurance provided.
B. LIFE ACCOUNT CHARGES
A daily charge equal to an annual rate of 0.90% of average daily net assets
of the Life Account is assessed to compensate WRL for assumption of
mortality and expense risks in connection with issuance and administration
of the Policies. This charge (not assessed at the individual policy level)
effectively reduces the value of a unit outstanding during the year.
NOTE 3 - DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Dividends of the Fund's Money Market Portfolio are declared daily and
reinvested monthly. Dividends of the remaining portfolios are declared and
reinvested semiannually, while capital gain distributions are declared and
reinvested annually. Dividends and distributions of the Fund are generally paid
to and reinvested by the Life Account the next business day after declaration.
NOTE 4 - OTHER MATTERS
As of June 30, 1996 the equity accounts include net unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments as follows:
