SUMMARY
The Contracts. The Contracts offered by this Prospectus are tax-deferred
flexible purchase payment group variable annuity contracts. The Contracts
provide for the accumulation of contract values and the payment of annuity
benefits on a variable and/or fixed basis. Except as specifically noted herein
and set forth under the caption "Information on the Fixed Account," this
Prospectus describes only the variable portion of the Contracts.
Retirement Plans. The Contracts may be issued pursuant to plans qualifying
for special income tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"),
such as pension and profit sharing plans, tax-sheltered annuities ("TSAs"),
and state and local government deferred compensation plans (see "Qualified
Contracts").
Purchase Payments. The Contracts permit Purchase Payments to be made on a
flexible purchase payment basis. The minimum initial payment and amount for each
subsequent payment is $10 per month. Purchase Payments may be made at any time,
except that if a Purchase Payment exceeds $250,000, it will be accepted only
with the prior approval of Great American Reserve (see "Purchase Payments").
Investment Options. Purchase Payments may be allocated among the 19
investment options available under the Contracts: 18 variable investment options
and one fixed option. The 18 variable investment options consist of Sub-accounts
which invest in shares of the following Funds: the Conseco Series Trust Asset
Allocation, Common Stock, Corporate Bond, Government Securities, and Money
Market Portfolios; The American Fund Leveraged AllCap and Small Capitalization
Portfolios; The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc.; the Dreyfus
Stock Index Fund; the Federated Insurance Series High Income Bond,
International Equity, and Utility Funds; the Janus Aspen Series Aggressive
Growth, Growth, and Worldwide Growth Portfolios; and the Van Eck Worldwide
Insurance Trust Gold and Natural Resources, Worldwide Bond, and Worldwide Hard
Assets Funds. (see the accompanying prospectuses of the eligible Funds). The
portion of the Contract Value in the Variable Account will reflect the
investment performance of the investment options selected (see "Variable
Account"). Purchase Payments may also be allocated to the Fixed Account (see
"Information on the Fixed Account"). Subject to certain regulatory
limitations, Great American Reserve may elect to add, subtract or substitute
investment options. Groups that invest on the Contracts may limit the number of
the investment options available to their individual participants.
Transfers. During the Accumulation Period, amounts may be transferred among
the Variable Account investment options and from the Variable Account investment
options to the Fixed Account investment option without charge. In addition,
amounts may be transferred from the Fixed Account investment option to the
Variable Account investment options, subject to a limit of 20 percent of the
Fixed Account value per any six-month period (see "Information on the Fixed
Account"). During the Annuity Period, transfers are not permitted from variable
annuity options to fixed annuity options or from fixed annuity options to
variable annuity options. Great American Reserve may impose certain additional
limitations on transfers (see "Allocation of Purchase Payments and Transfers"
and "Transfers During the Annuity Period"). Transfer privileges may also be
used under special services offered by Great American Reserve to dollar cost
average an investment in the contract (see "Dollar Cost Averaging"), or
transfer earnings from the Fixed Account to another investment option (see
"Sweeps"), or rebalance an investment on a periodic basis (see
"Rebalancing").
Withdrawals. The participant may withdraw all or a portion of the Contract
Value. A withdrawal charge and an administrative fee may be imposed (see
"Withdrawal Charge"). A withdrawal may also be subject to a penalty tax (see
"Federal Tax Matters"). Withdrawal privileges may also be exercised pursuant
to Great American Reserve's systematic withdrawal plan (see "Systematic
Withdrawal Plan") and check writing privilege (see "Check Writing").
Loans. The contract may contain a loan provision in connection with certain
qualified plans. Owners of such contracts may be eligible to obtain loans using
the contract as the only security for the loan (see "Loans").
<PAGE>
Death Benefit. Generally, if the Annuitant dies during the Accumulation
Period, Great American Reserve will pay to the beneficiary the death benefit
less any outstanding loans (see "Death Benefit").
Annuity Payments. Great American Reserve offers a variety of fixed and
variable annuity options. Periodic annuity payments will begin during the
Annuity Period. The Contract Owner selects the date when annuity payments begin,
frequency of payment and annuity option (see "Annuity Provisions").
Ten-Day Review. Within 10 days of receipt of a Contract, a Contract Owner
may cancel the Contract by returning it to Great American Reserve (see "Ten-Day
Right to Review").
Charges and Deductions. The following table and examples are designed to
assist Contract Owners in understanding the various expenses that Contract
Owners bear directly and indirectly. The table reflects expenses of the Variable
Account and the underlying Portfolios. The items listed under "Contract Owner
Transaction Expenses"and "Annual Expenses of Variable Account" are
completely described in this Prospectus (see "Contract Charges"). The items
listed under "Annual Fund Expenses After Reimbursement" are described in

(1) The Fund expenses shown above are assessed at the underlying Fund level and are not direct charges against separate account
assets or reductions from Contract Values. These Fund expenses are taken into consideration in computing each Fund's net asset
value, which is the share price used to calculate the Variable Account's unit value.
(2) Conseco Capital Management, Inc., the investment adviser of the Conseco Series Trust, has voluntarily agreed to reimburse all
expenses, including management fees, in excess of the following percentage of the average annual net assets of each listed
Portfolio, so long as such reimbursement would not result in a Portfolio's inability to qualify as a regulated investment
company under the Code: 0.75 percent for Asset Allocation; 0.80 percent for Common Stock; 0.70 percent for Corporate Bond and
Government Securities; and 0.45 percent for Money Market. The total percentage in the above table is after reimbursement. In
the absence of expense reimbursement, the total fees and expenses in 1995 would have totaled: 0.87 percent for Asset
Allocation; 0.80 percent for Common Stock; 0.74 percent for Corporate Bond; 0.77 percent for Government Securities; 0.52
percent for Money Market.
(3) Conseco Capital Management, Inc., since January 1, 1993, has voluntarily waived its Management Fees in excess of the annual
rates set forth above. Absent such Fee waivers, the Management Fees would have totaled: 0.65 percent for Asset Allocation; 0.65
percent for Common Stock; and 0.50 percent for Money Market.
(4) The Alger American Leveraged AllCap Portfolio "Other Expenses" includes 0.06 percent of interest expense. Absent
reimbursements to the Portfolio by its manager, the amount of Other Expenses and Total Expenses would have been 3.07 percent
and 3.92 percent, respectively, for the Alger American Leveraged AllCap Portfolio.
(5) The Dreyfus Corporation, the investment adviser of The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc., has voluntarily agreed
to reimburse all or a portion of its advisory fee to the extent that the total expenses of the fund are in excess of 1.30
percent of the average annual net assets. In the absence of expense reimbursement, the total fees and expenses in 1995 would
have totaled 0.42 percent.
(6) Mellon Equity Associates, the index manager of the Dreyfus Stock Index Fund, and the Dreyfus Corporation have voluntarily
agreed to reimburse all or a portion of its advisory fee to the extent that the total expenses of the fund are in excess of
0.40 percent of the average annual net assets. In the absence of expense reimbursement, the total fees and expenses in 1995
would have totaled 1.33 percent.
(7) Federated Advisers, the investment adviser of the Federated Insurance Series, has voluntarily agreed to reimburse all or a
portion of its advisory fee to the extent that the total expenses of the fund are in excess of the following percentage of the
average annual assets of each listed Fund: 0.60 percent for High Income Bond; 1.00 percent for International Equity; and 0.75
percent for Utility. In the absence of expense reimbursement, the total fees and expenses in 1995 would have been: 4.20 percent
for High Income Bond; 12.64 percent for International Equity; and 3.09 percent for Utility.
(8) The expense figures shown are net of certain fee waivers or reductions from Janus Capital Corporation, the investment adviser
of the Janus Aspen Series. Without such waivers or reductions, the total fees and expenses in 1995 would have totaled: 0.93
percent for Aggressive Growth; 0.98 percent for Growth; and 1.09 percent for Worldwide Growth.
(9) Other expenses are based on estimated amounts for the Portfolio's current fiscal year.
Great American Reserve has guaranteed certain expenses not to exceed a total of 1.44 percent on an annual basis of the
average annual net assets of the Conseco Series Trust Common Stock, Corporate Bond and Money Market Portfolios that is equal to
the same charges that would have been imposed under the Contracts had the Combination not occurred (see "Expense Guarantee
Agreement").

GREAT AMERICAN RESERVE, VARIABLE ACCOUNT, AND THE INVESTMENT OPTIONS
A. Great American Reserve
Great American Reserve, originally organized in 1937, is principally
engaged in the life insurance business in 47 states and the District of
Columbia. Great American Reserve is a stock company organized under the laws
of the state of Texas and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Conseco, Inc.
("Conseco"). The operations of Great American Reserve are handled by Conseco.
Conseco is a publicly owned financial services holding company, the principal
operations of which are the development, marketing and administration of
specialized annuity and life insurance products. Conseco is located at 11825
N. Pennsylvania Street, Carmel, Indiana 46032.
All inquiries regarding Individual Accounts, the Contracts, or any
related matter should be directed to Great American Reserve's Variable Annuity
Department at the address and telephone number shown on page 1 of this
Prospectus. The financial statements of Great American Reserve included in the
Statement of Additional Information should be considered only as bearing upon
the ability of Great American Reserve to meet the obligations under the
Contracts. Furthermore, neither the assets of Conseco nor those of any company
in the Conseco group of companies other than Great American Reserve support
these obligations. As of December 31, 1995, Great American Reserve had total
assets of $2.8 billion and total shareholder's equity of $442.6 million. Great
American Reserve does not guarantee the investment performance of the Variable
Account investment options.
B. Variable Account
Variable Account, originally established in 1980 by Voyager Life
Insurance Company, is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"). At a combined Special
Meeting held on December 14, 1992, the Contract Owners and Participants in
Variable Account, Great American Reserve Variable Annuity Account Fund
("Annuity Fund") and Great American Reserve Variable Annuity Account D
("Account D") approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and the
reorganization (the "Combination") of Variable Account, Annuity Fund, and
Account D, contemplated thereby. On May 1, 1993, the effective date of the
Combination, Variable Account, Annuity Fund and Account D were combined and
restructured into a single continuing unit investment trust separate account
investing exclusively in shares of the Conseco Series Trust, and Variable
Account became the continuing separate account. Also on May 1, 1993, all of
the portfolio assets of Variable Account, including those of Annuity Fund and
Account D, were sold, assigned and transferred to the Common Stock, Corporate
Bond and Money Market Portfolios of the Conseco Series Trust. In exchange for
such assets, shares of the Common Stock, Corporate Bond and Money Market
Portfolios were issued to the Common Stock Sub-account, Corporate Bond Sub-
account and Money Market Sub-account of restructured Variable Account,
respectively. The respective interests of Contract Owners and Participants
immediately after the Combination were equal to their former interests in
Variable Account, Annuity Fund or Account D, as the case may be, immediately
before the Combination.
Prior to the Combination, Variable Account, Annuity Fund and Account D
had been operated by Great American Reserve as managed separate accounts
investing directly in securities. Variable Account invested primarily in debt
securities, Annuity Fund invested primarily in equity securities, and Account
D invested only in money market instruments. As a result of the Combination,
Variable Account invests in shares of the Conseco Series Trust, which, in
turn, invest directly in diversified portfolios of securities, as described in
the Conseco Series Trust's prospectus and statement of additional information.
The Variable Account also invests in shares of Funds described herein.
<PAGE>
The Variable Account is segmented into Sub-accounts. Each Sub-account
invests in shares of one of the eligible Funds and such shares are purchased
at net asset value. The Sub-accounts and Funds may be added or withdrawn as
permitted by applicable law. The Variable Account consists of 18 Sub-accounts,
each of which invests in shares of one of the eligible Funds of the Conseco
Series Trust Asset Allocation, Common Stock, Corporate Bond, Government
Securities, and Money Market Portfolios; The Alger American Fund Leveraged
AllCap and Small Capitalization Portfolios; The Dreyfus Socially Responsible
Growth Fund, Inc.; the Dreyfus Stock Index Fund; the Federated Insurance
Series High Income Bond, International Equity, and Utility Funds; the Janus
Aspen Series Aggressive Growth, Growth, and Worldwide Growth Portfolios; and
the Van Eck Worldwide Insurance Trust Gold and Natural Resources, Worldwide
Bond, and Worldwide Hard Assets Funds. Great American Reserve reserves the
right to add other Sub-accounts, eliminate existing Sub-accounts, combine Sub-
accounts or transfer assets in one Sub-account to another Sub-account
established by Great American Reserve or an affiliate company. Great American
Reserve will not eliminate existing Sub-accounts or combine Sub-accounts
without any required prior approval of the appropriate state or federal
regulatory authorities.
The assets of Variable Account are not chargeable with liabilities
arising out of any other business Great American Reserve may conduct. In
addition, any income, gains or losses realized or unrealized on assets of
Variable Account are credited to or charged against Variable Account without
regard to other income, gains or losses of Great American Reserve.
Nevertheless, obligations arising under the Contracts are obligations of Great
American Reserve.
In addition to the net assets and other liabilities for variable annuity
contracts, Variable Account's assets will include assets derived from charges
made by Great American Reserve. Great American Reserve may transfer out to its
general account any of Variable Account's assets that are in excess of the
reserves and other liabilities relating to the Contracts.
Variable Account is regulated by the Insurance Department of Texas.
Regulation by the state, however, does not involve any supervision of Variable
Account, except to determine compliance with broad statutory
criteria.
C. Investment Options
The investment objectives of the Sub-accounts available through the
Variable Account are briefly described below. More detailed information is
contained in the current prospectuses of the Funds.
Conseco Series Trust
Asset Allocation Portfolio seeks a high total investment return,
consistent with the preservation of capital and prudent investment risk. The
Portfolio seeks to achieve this objective by pursuing an active asset
allocation strategy whereby investments are allocated, based upon thorough
investment research, valuation and analysis of market trends and the
anticipated relative total return available, among various asset classes
including debt securities, equity securities, and money market instruments.
Common Stock Portfolio seeks to provide a high total return consistent
with preservation of capital and a prudent level of risk primarily by
investing in selected equity securities and other securities having the
investment characteristics of common stocks.
Corporate Bond Portfolio seeks to provide as high a level of income as is
consistent with preservation of capital by investing primarily in debt
securities.
Government Securities Portfolio seeks safety of capital, liquidity and
current income by investing primarily in securities issued by the U.S.
government or an agency or instrumentality of the U.S. government, including
mortgage-related securities.
Money Market Portfolio seeks current income consistent with stability of
capital and liquidity. An investment in this Portfolio is neither insured nor
guaranteed by the U.S. government and there can be no assurance
<PAGE>
that the Portfolio will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00
per share.
The Alger American Fund
Alger American Leveraged AllCap Portfolio seeks long-term capital
appreciation by investing in a diversified, actively managed portfolio of
equity securities. The Portfolio may engage in leveraging (up to 33 1/3 percent
of its assets) and options and futures transactions, which are deemed to be
speculative and which may cause the Portfolio's value to fluctuate.
Alger American Small Capitalization Portfolio seeks a long-term capital
appreciation. Except during temporary defensive periods, the Portfolio invests
at least 65% of its total assets in equity securities of companies that, at
the time of purchase of the securities, have total market capitalization
within the range of companies included in the Russell 2000 Growth Index. This
Index is designed to track the performance of small capitalization companies.
At the date of this Prospectus, the range of market capitalization of these
companies was $20 million to $3.0 billion. The Portfolio may invest up to 35%
of its total assets in equity securities of larger or smaller issuers and in
excess of that amount (up to 100% of its assets) during temporary defensive
periods.
The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc.
The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc. seeks to provide
capital growth through equity investment in companies that, in the opinion of
the Fund's management, not only meet traditional investment standards but also
show evidence that they conduct business in a manner that contributes to the
enhancement of the quality of life in America. Current income is secondary to
the primary goal.
Dreyfus Stock Index Fund
Dreyfus Stock Index Fund seeks to provide investment results that
correspond to the price and yield performance of publicly traded common stocks
in the aggregate, as represented by the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Price
Index. The Fund is neither sponsored by nor affiliated with the Standard &
Poor's Corporation.
Federated Insurance Series
Federated High Income Bond Fund II seeks to provide high current income
by investing at least 65 percent of its assets in lower rated fixed income
corporate debt obligations. Capital growth will be considered, but only when
consistent with the investment objective of high current income. The fixed
income securities in which the Fund will primarily invest are commonly
referred to as "junk bonds."
Federated International Equity Fund II seeks to obtain a total return on
its assets by investing at least 65 percent of its assets (and under normal
market conditions substantially all of its assets) in equity securities of
issuers located in at least three different countries outside of the United
States.
Federated Utility Fund II seeks to provide high current income and
moderate capital appreciation by investing at least 65 percent of its assets
(under normal conditions) in equity and debt securities of utility companies.
Janus Aspen Series
Aggressive Growth Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital. The
Portfolio is a nondiversified fund that pursues its objective by normally
investing at least 50% of its equity assets in securities issued by medium-
sized companies. Medium-sized companies are those whose market capitalizations
fall within the range of companies in the S&P MidCap 400 Index (the "MidCap
Index"). Companies whose capitalization falls outside this range after the
Portfolio's initial purchase continue to be considered medium-sized companies
of the purpose of this policy. As of December 29, 1995, the MidCap Index
included companies with capitalizations between approximately $118 million to
$7.5 billion.
Growth Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital in a manner consistent
with the preservation of capital. It pursues this objective by investing
primarily in common stocks of a large number of issuers of any size.
Generally, this Portfolio emphasizes issuers with larger market
capitalizations.
Worldwide Growth Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital in a manner
consistent with the preservation of capital. It pursues this objective by

investing primarily in common stocks of foreign and domestic issuers of any
size. The Portfolio normally invests in issuers from at least five different
countries including the United States.
Van Eck Worldwide Insurance Trust
Gold and Natural Resources Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by
investing in equity and debt securities of companies engaged in the
exploration, development, production and distribution of gold and other
natural resources, such as strategic and other metals, minerals, forest
products, oil, natural gas and coal. Current income is not an investment
objective.
Worldwide Bond Fund seeks high total return through a flexible policy of
investing globally, primarily in debt securities.
Worldwide Hard Assets Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by
investing globally, primarily in equity securities and indexed securities of
"hard asset"companies which are directly or indirectly engaged to a significant
extent in the exploration, development, production and distribution of
precious metals, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, gas, petroleum,
petrochemicals, forest products, real estate and other basic non-agricultural
commodities which, historically, have been produced and marketed profitably
during periods of significant inflation.
There is no assurance that the Funds will achieve their stated objectives.
The Funds' shares are also available to certain separate accounts funding
variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts offered by
other insurance company separate accounts. This is called "mixed and shared
funding."Although we do not anticipate any inherent difficulties arising from
mixed and shared funding, it is theoretically possible that, due to
differences in tax treatment or other considerations, the interests of owners
of various contracts participating in the Funds might at some time be in
conflict. The Board of Directors or Trustees of each Fund, each Fund's
investment adviser, and Great American Reserve are required to monitor events
to identify any material conflicts that arise from the use of the Funds for
mixed and shared funding. For more information about the risks of mixed
funding, please refer to the relevant Fund prospectus.
If the shares of any of the Funds should no longer be available for
investment by the Variable Account or, if in the judgment of Great American
Reserve's management, further investment of such Fund shares shall become
inappropriate in view of the purpose of the Contract, Great American Reserve
may add or substitute shares of another eligible Sub-account or of another
Fund for eligible Portfolio shares already purchased under the Contract. No
substitution of Sub-account shares may take place without prior approval of
the SEC and notice to Contract Owners or Participants, to the extent required
by the 1940 Act.
Great American Reserve has also reserved the right, subject to compliance
with the law as currently applicable or subsequently changed, (a) to operate
the Variable Account in any form permitted under the 1940 Act or in any other
form permitted by law; (b) to take any action necessary to comply with or
obtain and continue any exemptions from the 1940 Act or to comply with any
other applicable law; (c) to transfer any assets in any Sub-account to another
Sub-account, or to one or more separate investment accounts, or to Great
American Reserve's Fixed Account of the General Account; or to add, combine or
remove Sub-accounts in the Variable Account; and (d) to change the way Great
American Reserve assesses charges, so long as the aggregate amount is not
increased beyond that currently charged to the Variable Account and the
eligible Portfolios in connection with the Contract.
THE CONTRACTS
A. Accumulation Provisions
Purchase Payments. The Contracts are designed for Plans generally
involving 25 or more Participants. Purchase Payments on behalf of a
Participant must be at least $10 per month. Purchase Payments allocated to a
Sub-account of Variable Account will be used to purchase Accumulation Units in
that Sub-account. Each
<PAGE>
Sub-account will then invest in shares of a corresponding Portfolio of the
Funds.
The value of an Individual Account can be determined at any time during
the Accumulation Period by multiplying the total number of Accumulation Units
in a Sub-account attributable to such Individual Account by the then-current
value of an Accumulation Unit in such Sub-account. Because the value of the
Accumulation Units fluctuates, there is no assurance that the value of the
Accumulation Units in an Individual Account will equal or exceed the amount of
Purchase Payments made.
The initial value of an Accumulation Unit for each of the other Sub-
accounts of Variable Account on the first day that Purchase Payments are
allocated, or transfers are made, to each of such Sub-accounts will be equal
to the Accumulation Unit value of $1.00 multiplied by the "net investment
factor"for each such Sub-account. After the initial Accumulation Unit values
are established, the value of an Accumulation Unit for each of the Sub-
accounts of Variable Account for any subsequent Valuation Period will be
determined by multiplying the Accumulation Unit value for the immediately
preceding Valuation Period by the net investment factor for the current period
for the Sub-account. (see "Net Investment Factor for each Valuation Period").
A Valuation Period is the period of time from the end of one business day
to the end of the next. Accumulation Units of the Sub-accounts are valued as
of the time of closing of each business day of the New York Stock Exchange on
any business day in which an order for sale or redemption of Accumulation
Units is received and in which there is a sufficient degree of trading in the
portfolio securities to materially affect the current asset values of the
Accumulation Units.
Accumulation Units. Each Purchase Payment is credited to the
Participant's Individual Account in the form of Accumulation Units at the
close of the Valuation Period in which the Purchase Payment is received at the
Administrative Office of Great American Reserve. The number of Accumulation
Units credited is determined by dividing the amount credited by the value of
an Accumulation Unit at the close of that Valuation Period. Accumulation Units
are valued separately for each investment option, so a Contract Owner who has
elected to have amounts in an Individual Account accumulated in more than one
investment option will have several types of Accumulation Units credited to
the Individual Account.
Allocation of Purchase Payments and Transfers. The Contract Owner may
elect to have Purchase Payments accumulated (a) on a fully variable basis
invested in one or more of the Sub-accounts of Variable Account; (b) on a
fully fixed basis which reflects a compound interest rate promised by Great
American Reserve; or (c) in a combination of any of the investment options.
An election to change the allocation of future Purchase Payments may be
made by the Contract Owner 30 days (a) subsequent to the date of establishment
of the Individual Account or (b) subsequent to a prior change in allocation.
In addition, the Contract Owner may elect, during the Accumulation Period, to
transfer amounts in an Individual Account being accumulated in any investment
option to any other investment option without deduction of any charges,
subject to certain conditions.
Subject to the conditions noted below, during the Accumulation Period the
Contract Owner may transfer amounts in an Individual Account being accumulated
in any investment option-a Sub-account of Variable Account or the Fixed
Account-to any other investment option available under the Contracts, without
charge. Except with Great American Reserve's permission, a transfer can be
made no more frequently than once in any 30-day period, and only one transfer
from the Fixed Account is permitted in any six-month period with no more than
20 percent of the Fixed Account value transferred at one time. Transfers
between Sub-accounts and changes in allocations may be made either in writing
or by telephone (if a telephone authorization request has been completed).
Transfers must be made by written authorization from the Contract Owner
or from the person acting for the Contract Owner as an attorney-in-fact under
a power-of-attorney if permitted by state law. The Contract Owner must request
telephone transfers on forms provided by Great American Reserve. By
authorizing Great
<PAGE>
American Reserve to accept telephone transfer instructions, a Contract Owner
agrees to accept and be bound by the conditions and procedures established by
Great American Reserve from time to time. We have instituted reasonable
procedures to confirm that any instructions communicated by telephone are
genuine. All telephone calls will be recorded, and the caller will be asked to
produce your personalized data prior to our initiating any transfer requests
by telephone. Additionally, as with other transactions, you will receive a
written confirmation of your transfer. If reasonable procedures are employed,
neither Great American Reserve nor Garco Equity Sales, Inc. ("Garco Equity
Sales") will be liable for following telephone instructions which it
reasonably believes to be genuine. Written transfer requests may be made by a
person acting for the Contract Owner as an attorney-in-fact under a power-of-
attorney.
Transfer requests received by Great American Reserve before the close of
trading on the New York Stock Exchange (currently 4:00 p.m. eastern time) will
be initiated at the close of business that day. Any request received later
will be initiated at the close of the next business day.
Dollar Cost Averaging. Great American Reserve administers a Dollar Cost
Averaging ("DCA") program which enables a Contract Owner to transfer the
value from the Fixed Account or Money Market Sub-account to another investment
option on a predetermined and systematic basis. The DCA program is generally
suitable for Contract Owners making a substantial deposit to the Contract and
who desire to control the risk of investing at the top of a market cycle. The
DCA program allows such investments to be made in equal installments over time
in an effort to reduce such risk.
Rebalancing. Rebalancing is a program, which if elected, provides for
periodic pre-authorized automatic transfers during the Accumulation Period
among the Sub-Accounts pursuant to written instructions from the Contract
Owner. Such transfers are made to maintain a particular percentage allocation
among the Portfolios as selected by the Contract Owner. Amounts in the Fixed
Account will not be transferred pursuant to the Rebalancing Program. The
Contract Value must be at least $5,000 to have transfers made pursuant to the
Program. Any transfer made pursuant to the Program must be in whole
percentages in one (1%) percent allocation increments. The maximum number of
Sub-Accounts which can be used for rebalancing is fifteen (15). A Contract
Owner may select quarterly, semi-annual or annual Rebalancing, on the date
requested by the Contract Owner. Transfers made pursuant to the Rebalancing
Program are not taken into account in determining any Transfer Fee. There is
no fee for participating in the Program. The Company reserves the right to
terminate, modify or suspend the Rebalancing Program at any time.
Sweeps. Sweeps are the transfer of the earnings from the Fixed Account
investment option into another investment option on a periodic and systematic
basis.
Value of an Individual Account. The number of Accumulation Units credited
to an Individual Account will not be changed by any subsequent change in the
value of an Accumulation Unit, but the dollar value of an Accumulation Unit
may vary from Valuation Period to Valuation Period to reflect the investment
experience of the appropriate investment option. The value of an Individual
Account at any time prior to the commencement of the Annuity Period can be
determined by (a) multiplying the total number of Accumulation Units credited
to the Individual Account for each investment option, respectively, by the
appropriate current Accumulation Unit value; and (b) totaling the resulting
values for each portion of the Individual Account. There is no assurance that
the value of the Individual Account will equal or exceed the Purchase Payments
made. The Contract Owner will be advised at least annually as to the number of
Accumulation Units which are credited to the Individual Accounts, the current
Accumulation Unit values, and the values of the Individual Accounts.
Net Investment Factor for Each Valuation Period. The Variable Account
value will fluctuate in accordance with the investment results of the
underlying eligible Funds. In order to determine how these fluctuations affect
Contract value, an Accumulation Unit value is utilized. Each Sub-account has
its own Accumulation Units and value per Unit. The Unit value applicable
during
<PAGE>
any Valuation Period is determined at the end of that period.
When eligible Fund shares were first purchased on behalf of the Variable
Account, Accumulation Units were valued at $1.00 each. The value of an
Accumulation Unit for each Sub-account at any Valuation Period thereafter is
determined by multiplying the value for the prior period by a net investment
factor. This factor may be greater or less than 1.0; therefore, the
Accumulation Unit may increase or decrease from Valuation Period to Valuation
Period. A net investment factor for each Sub-account is calculated by dividing
(a) by (b) and then subtracting (c) (i.e., (a/b) - c), where:
(a) is equal to:
(I) the net asset value per share of the eligible
Portfolio at the end of the Valuation Period; plus
(ii) the per-share amount of any distribution made
by the eligible Portfolio if the "ex-dividend" date
occurs during the same Valuation Period.
(b) is the net asset value per share of the eligible
Portfolio at the end of the prior Valuation Period.
(c) is equal to the Valuation Period equivalent of the per-year mortality
and expense risk charge as indicated in the "Summary-Charges and
Deductions"table.
Information on the Fixed Account. Because of exemptive and exclusionary
provisions, interests in the Fixed Account of the general account have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"), nor is the
Fixed Account of the general account registered as an investment company under
the 1940 Act. Accordingly, neither the Fixed Account of the general account of
Great American Reserve nor any interest therein is generally subject to the
provisions of the 1933 or 1940 Acts, and we have been advised that the staff
of the SEC has not reviewed the disclosures in this Prospectus that relate to
the fixed portion. Disclosures regarding the Fixed Account of the Contracts
and the general account of Great American Reserve, however, may be subject to
certain generally applicable provisions of the federal securities laws
relating to the accuracy and completeness of statements made in prospectuses.
In addition to the 18 variable investment options described in this
Prospectus, the Contracts have a Fixed Account available for allocation of
Purchase Payments. Generally, the information in the Section called
"Contracts" applies in a like manner to the Fixed Account. However, there are
some differences.
The Fixed Account operates like a traditional annuity. Fixed Annuity Cash
Values increase based on interest rates that may change from time to time but
are guaranteed by Great American Reserve. Interest is credited daily and
compounded annually. Purchase Payments and transfers to the Fixed Account
become part of the general account of Great American Reserve. In contrast,
Purchase Payments and transfers for the Variable Account are applied to
segregated asset accounts; they are not commingled with Great American
Reserve's main portfolio of investments that support fixed annuity
obligations. The gains achieved or losses suffered by the segregated asset
accounts have no effect on the Fixed Account.
The Contracts allow you to transfer Contract Values between the Fixed and
Variable Accounts, but such transfers are restricted as follows:
1. You may transfer Contract Values from the Variable Account to the Fixed
Account once in any 30-day period.
2. You may transfer Contract Values from the Fixed Account to the Variable
Account once in any six- month period subject to a limit of 20 percent of
the Fixed Account value.
3. No transfers may be made from the Fixed Account once annuity payments
begin.
The administrative charge and the mortality and expense risk charge based
on the value of each Sub-account do not apply to values allocated to the Fixed
Account.
If you buy the annuity as a TSA or certain other qualified plans, the
Contract will contain a provision that allows a loan to be taken against the
Contract Values allocated to the Fixed Account. Loan provisions are described
in detail in the Contract.
<PAGE>
Withdrawals. The Contract permits the Contract Owner to withdraw all or a
portion of the Contract at any time. The value of the Contract will be
determined as of the date a written request for withdrawal is received by
Great American Reserve at its Administrative Office or a later date specified
by the Contract Owner in the request. The Redemption Payment shall be the
value of Accumulation Units then credited to Individual Accounts under the
Contract, less applicable withdrawal charges, any outstanding loans, and
applicable administrative fees. With respect to any Individual Account value
or portion thereof which has been applied to provide annuity payments, Great
American Reserve will continue to make annuity payments under the option
selected until its obligation to make such payments terminates (see "Annuity
Provisions").
An Individual Account may be fully or partially withdrawn by the Contract
Owner at any time prior to the commencement of annuity payments subject to any
restrictions of the Code. For certain qualified contracts, exercise of the
withdrawal right may be restricted and may require the consent of the
participant's spouse as required under the Code and regulations thereunder.
Where amounts in an Individual Account are being accumulated in more than one
investment option, a request for partial withdrawal must specify the manner in
which the Amount Redeemed is to be allocated between the investment options.
Any payment to a Participant upon full or partial withdrawal of an Individual
Account will be as provided by the terms of the Plan.
When an Individual Account is fully withdrawn, the Redemption Payment
will be the value of the Individual Account less any withdrawal charge, any
outstanding loans and less the annual administrative fee. In the case of a
partial withdrawal of an Individual Account where a specific Redemption
Payment is requested, the number of Accumulation Units cancelled will be equal
in value to the amount requested plus the amount of any withdrawal charge (see
"Withdrawal Charge").
Redemption Payments will normally be made within seven days after a
written request is received at the Administrative Office of Great American
Reserve, or within seven days after such later date specified by the Contract
Owner in the request. Payment may be subject to postponement as described
below.
With respect to the portion accumulated on a variable basis, payment may
be postponed (1) for any period during which the New York Stock Exchange is
closed (other than customary weekend and holiday closings) or during which
trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted; (2) for any period
during which an emergency exists as a result of which disposal of securities
held in one or more of the Funds is not reasonably practicable or it is not
reasonably practicable for the assets of a Fund to be fairly determined; or
(3) for such other periods as the SEC may by order permit for the protection
of security holders. The conditions under which trading shall be deemed to be
restricted or an emergency deemed to exist shall be determined by the rules
and regulations of the SEC.
Withdrawals from the Contract may be subject to a penalty tax and
withdrawals are permitted from Contracts issued in connection with certain
qualified plans only under limited circumstances (see "Federal Tax Matters")
Systematic Withdrawal Plan. Great American Reserve administers a
Systematic Withdrawal Plan ("SWP") which enables a Participant to pre-
authorize a periodic exercise of the contractual withdrawal rights described
above. Participants entering into a SWP agreement instruct Great American
Reserve to withdraw a level dollar amount from specified investment options on
a periodic basis. The total of SWP withdrawals in a Contract Year is limited
to free withdrawal amounts to ensure that no withdrawal charge will ever apply
to a SWP withdrawal (see "Withdrawal Charge"). If an additional withdrawal is
made from a Contract participating in SWP, the SWP will terminate
automatically and may be reinstated only on or after a written request to
Great American Reserve. SWP is not available to Contracts participating in the
dollar cost averaging program or for which Purchase Payments are automatically
deducted from a bank account on a periodic basis. SWP is only available for
withdrawals free of withdrawal charges. SWP withdrawals may, however, be
subject to the 10 percent
<PAGE>
federal tax penalty on early withdrawals and to income tax (see "Federal Tax
Matters"). Participants interested in SWP may elect to participate in this
program by written request to Great American Reserve's Administrative Office.
Check Writing. A Contract Owner over age 59 1/2 and invested in the Money
Market Sub-account may authorize Great American Reserve to withdraw amounts
from the Money Market Sub-account by check by completing the required forms
requested from Great American Reserve. Once the forms are properly completed,
signed and returned to Great American Reserve, a supply of checks will be sent
to the Contract Owner. These checks may be made payable by the Contract Owner
to the order of any person in any amount of $250 or more. When a check is
presented for payment, full and fractional Accumulation Units required to
cover the amount of the check and any applicable contract charges are
withdrawn from the Contract Owner's Individual Account by Great American
Reserve at the next Valuation Period. Checks will not be honored for
withdrawal of Accumulation Units held less than 15 calendar days, unless such
Accumulation Units have been paid for by bank wire. If the amount of the check
is greater than the proceeds of the Money Market Sub-account held in the
Individual Account, the check is returned and the Contract Owner may be
subject to additional charges. The check writing privilege may be terminated
or suspended at any time by Great American Reserve. There is an additional
charge for this service to the Contract Owner by Great American Reserve. A
"stop payment" system is not available on these checks.
Loans. Your contract may contain a loan provision issued in connection
with certain qualified plans. Owners of such Contracts may obtain loans using
the Contract as the only security for the loan. Loans are subject to
provisions of the Code and to applicable retirement program rules. Tax
advisers and retirement plan fiduciaries should be consulted prior to
exercising loan privileges. Loan provisions are described in detail in the
Contract.
The amount of any loans will be deducted from the death benefit (see
"Death Benefits"). In addition, a loan, whether or not repaid, will have a
permanent effect on the Contract Value because the investment results of the
investment accounts will apply only to the unborrowed portion of the Contract
Value. The longer the loan is outstanding, the greater the effect is likely to
be. The effect could be favorable or unfavorable. If the investment results
are greater than the rate being credited on amounts held in the loan account
while the loan is outstanding, the Contract Value will not increase as rapidly
as it would have if no loan was outstanding. If investment results are below
that rate, the Contract Value will be higher than it would have been if no
loan had been outstanding.
Contract Charges
Premium Taxes. Any premium tax due will be deducted from Purchase
Payments or from Individual Account values at the annuity commencement date or
at such other time as determined by Great American Reserve. The current range
of premium taxes in jurisdictions in which the Contracts are made available is
from 0 percent to 3.5 percent.
Administrative Charge. During the Accumulation Period, an annual
administrative fee of $15 is deducted on each July 2 from the Individual
Account value. This administrative fee has been set at a level that will
recover no more than the actual costs associated with administering the
Contracts. If an Individual Account is fully surrendered prior to the
commencement of annuity payments, the annual administrative fee will be
deducted from proceeds paid; provided, however, that in no event will the
amount of such administrative fee deduction exceed 2 percent of the surrender
value of the Individual Account when it is fully surrendered. The
administrative fee deduction is made first from amounts accumulated in the
Fixed Account; if no or an insufficient value exists in the Fixed Account, any
balance will then be deducted from the Sub-accounts of Variable Account.
Mortality and Expense Risk Charge. Great American Reserve makes daily
deductions from the variable portion of a Contract at an effective annual rate
equal to 1.00 percent of the value of the assets of
<PAGE>
Variable Account for the mortality and expense risks assumed by Great American
Reserve. Great American Reserve performs all administrative functions and pays
all administrative expenses with respect to the Contracts. These expenses
include but are not limited to salaries, rents, postage, telephone, travel,
legal, actuarial and accounting fees, office equipment and stationery. Great
American Reserve also provides the death benefits under the Contracts. The
amounts are deducted from the assets of Variable Account in accordance with
the Contracts.
Variable Annuity payments made under the Contracts vary with the
investment performance of the Sub-accounts of Variable Account, but are not
affected by Great American Reserve's actual mortality experience among
Annuitants. The life span of the Annuitant, or changes in life expectancy in
general, do not affect the monthly annuity payments payable under the
Contracts. If Annuitants live longer than the life expectancy determined by
Great American Reserve, Great American Reserve provides funds from its general
funds to make annuity payments. Conversely, if longevity among Annuitants is
lower than Great American Reserve determined, Great American Reserve realizes
a gain. This is the mortality expense risk.
Great American Reserve also assumes the risk, the expense risk, that
deductions provided for in the Contracts for sales and administrative expenses
may not be enough to cover actual costs. Where the deductions are not
adequate, Great American Reserve will pay the amount of any shortfall from its
general funds. Any amounts paid by Great American Reserve may consist of,
among other things, proceeds derived from mortality and expense risk charges.
Withdrawal Charge. In the event of partial or full withdrawal of the
Individual Account during the Accumulation Period, a withdrawal charge is made
from the amount withdrawn ("Amount Redeemed") to determine the amount to be
paid ("Redemption Payment"), if there are less than 15 Completed Annual
Contribution Periods for the Individual Account. During the Annuity Period,
withdrawal charges may be made under the fourth and fifth Options discussed
below (see "Optional Annuity Period Elections"). No withdrawal charge is made
from annuity payments under an option involving lifetime payments (the first
through third Options) or from amounts paid due to the death of a Participant.
The withdrawal charge will be a percentage of the Amount Redeemed,
ranging from 5 percent to 0 percent depending upon the number of completed
Annual Contribution Periods for the Individual Account as the following table
indicates; however, the cumulative deductions will not exceed 8.5 percent of
the cumulative Purchase Payments made. Until such percentage reaches zero, it
is possible that the actual dollar amount of the withdrawal charge will
increase, even though the percentage will decline, because of an increase in
the value of a Participant's Individual Account. If the cost of selling the
Contracts is greater than the withdrawal charges collected, the deficiency
will be made up out of Great American Reserve's general account assets which
may include profits derived from the mortality and expense risk fees.
Completed Annual Contribution Periods Withdrawal
For the Individual Account Charge
Less than 5 ................................................................5%
5 or more but less than 10..................................................3%
10 or more but less than 15.................................................2%
15 or more................................................................None
No withdrawal charge is applicable to Individual Accounts surrendered
upon the death of the Participant. Redemptions are made on a last-in-first-out
basis. See "Administrative Charge" above.

In order to make a Redemption Payment of $1,000, the Amount Redeemed must be greater than the Amount Requested by the amount
of the withdrawal charge. The Amount Redeemed is calculated by dividing (a) the Amount Requested ($1,000) by (b) 1.00 minus the
deduction rate of 5 percent (or .95), which produces $1,052.63. The value of the Individual Account will be reduced by this amount.
</TABLE>
Reduction or Elimination of Contract Charges. In some cases, Great
American Reserve may expect to incur lower sales and administrative expenses
or perform fewer services due to the size of the Contract, the average
contribution and the use of group enrollment procedures. Then, Great American
Reserve may be able to reduce or eliminate the contract charges for
administrative expense and deferred sales load charges.
Expense Guarantee Agreement. Pursuant to the Combination, Great American
Reserve issued an endorsement with respect to each existing Contract
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Combination
guaranteeing that the total of the investment management fees charged against
the Common Stock, Corporate Bond and Money Market Portfolios of the Conseco
Series Trust whose shares are purchased by Variable Account, plus the
mortality and expense risk, administrative and any other charges imposed upon
the assets of the corresponding Sub-accounts of Variable Account, will not
exceed an amount that is equal to the total amount of the same charges that
would have been imposed under the Contracts had the Combination not occurred
(the "Expense Guarantee Agreement"). Accordingly, Great American Reserve will
reimburse to the appropriate Sub-account of Variable Account an amount that
represents the difference between the investment management fees charged
Variable Account, Annuity Fund or Account D, as applicable, prior to the
Combination and the amount of such fees charged to the Conseco Series Trust,
plus any other charges in excess of those that would have been incurred if the
Combination had not taken place. The mortality and expense risk and
administrative charges will not change, and any other charges imposed on the
assets of Variable Account are not expected to be more than before the
Combination. Great American Reserve will not, however, assume extraordinary or
non-recurring expenses of the Conseco Series Trust, such as legal claims and
liabilities, litigation costs and indemnification payments in connection with
litigation. Also, the Expense Guarantee Agreement will not apply to any
federal income tax if the Conseco Series Trust fails to qualify as a
"regulated investment company" under applicable provisions of the Code. The
Expense Guarantee Agreement, described above, also applies to Contracts issued
after the Combination. Great American Reserve,
<PAGE>
however, may eliminate the Expense Guarantee Agreement with respect to
Contracts issued in the future.
Other Charges. Currently, no charge is made against Variable Account for
Great American Reserve's federal income taxes, or provisions for such taxes,
that may be attributable to Variable Account. Great American Reserve may
charge each Sub-account of Variable Account for its portion of any income tax
charged to the Sub-account or its assets. Under present laws, Great American
Reserve may incur state and local taxes (in addition to premium taxes) in
several states. At present, these taxes are not significant. If they increase,
however, Great American Reserve may decide to make charges for such taxes or
provisions for such taxes against Variable Account. Any such charges against
Variable Account or its Sub-accounts could have an adverse effect on the
investment experience of such Sub-accounts.
Death Benefits. In the event of the death of a Participant before the
commencement of annuity payments, Great American Reserve will pay the
beneficiary the value of the Participant's Individual Account less any debt,
determined as of the Valuation Period in which proof of death acceptable to
Great American Reserve is received at its Administrative Office. There is no
withdrawal charge applicable to amounts paid due to the death of a
Participant.
In lieu of a lump-sum payment, the death proceeds may be applied under
any of the annuity options available in the Contract and in accordance with
the terms of the Plan.
Options Upon Termination of Participation in the Plan. Upon termination
of participation in the Plan prior to the annuity commencement date, a
Contract Owner will have the following options:
(a) leave the Individual Account in force under the Contract, and the Sub-
account will continue to participate in the investment results of the
selected investment media. When the annuity commencement date arrives,
the Participant will begin to receive annuity payments (see "Annuity
Provisions"). During the interim, any of the options described below may
be elected by the Contract Owner. This option will automatically apply,
unless written election of another option is filed with Great American
Reserve.
(b) apply the Individual Account to provide annuity payments commencing
immediately (see "Annuity Provisions").
(c) convert the Individual Account to an individual variable annuity contract
of the type then being issued by Great American Reserve.
(d) terminate the Individual Account and receive its Contract Value less any
applicable charges and outstanding loans.
Restrictions Under Optional Retirement Programs. Participants in Optional
Retirement Programs can redeem their interest in a Variable Annuity Contract
only upon (1) termination of employment in all public institutions of higher
education as defined by applicable law, (2) retirement, or (3) death.
Accordingly, a Participant may be required to obtain a certificate of
termination from his employer before he can redeem his interest. Currently,
these restrictions apply to the participants of the Florida and Texas Optional
Retirement Program.
Restrictions Under Section 403(b) Plans. Section 403(b) of the Code
provides that distributions (including surrenders, partial withdrawals and
contract proceeds) under an annuity policy attributable to contributions made
pursuant to a salary reduction agreement shall not begin prior to the time the
employee
(a) attains age 59 1/2, separates from the service of his or her employer,
dies, or becomes disabled; or
(b) suffers a financial hardship, as defined in then current Code and
regulations; or
(c) is a party to a divorce settlement pursuant to applicable law.
Such section only applies to distributions attributable to amounts
accrued under any such policy after December 31, 1988.
Such Section further provides that, in the event of a financial hardship,
any distribution made from any such policy shall consist only of contributions
made pursuant
<PAGE>
to a salary reduction agreement and shall not include any income attributable
to such contributions.
B. Annuity Provisions
Optional Annuity Period Elections. The retirement date and the annuity
options are normally established by the terms of the Plan. If the Contract
Owner does not elect otherwise (a) the manner of payment will be a lifetime
annuity with 120 monthly payments certain, and (b) the value of the
Participant's Individual Account will be applied as follows (1) any value
accumulated in the Fixed Account will be applied to provide a fixed annuity;
and (2) the value in the Sub-Account of Variable Account will be applied,
separately, to provide variable annuity payments.
By giving written notice to Great American Reserve at least 30 days prior
to the commencement of annuity payments, the Contract Owner may, as to each
Participant; elect to change (a) the annuity option to any of the optional
annuity forms described below, and (b) the manner in which the value of a
Participant's Individual Account is to be applied to provide annuity payments
(for example, an election that a portion or all of the amounts accumulated on
a variable basis be applied to provide fixed annuity payments or vice versa).
Once annuity payments commence, no changes may be elected by the Contract
Owner.
No election may be made that would result in a first monthly annuity
payment of less than $25 if payments are to be on a fully fixed or variable
basis, or less than $25 on each basis if a combination of variable and fixed
annuity payments is elected. If at any time payments are or become less than
$25 per monthly payment, Great American Reserve has the right to change the
frequency of payment to such interval as will result in annuity payments of at
least $25 each, except that payments shall not be made less frequently than
annually.
Prior to the selected annuity date, an Individual Account may be
terminated by the Contract Owner and the value thereof received in a lump sum.
Once annuity payments have commenced, neither the Annuitant nor the Contract
Owner can terminate the annuity benefit and receive a lump-sum settlement in
lieu thereof, except as permitted under the Fourth and Fifth Options below.
See "Federal Tax Matters" for information on the federal tax status of
annuity payments or other settlements in lieu thereof.
Annuity Options
First Option-Life Annuity. An Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime
of the Annuitant and ceasing with the last monthly payment due prior to
the death of the Annuitant. Of the first three options, this option
offers the maximum level of monthly payments since there is no minimum
number of payments guaranteed (nor a provision for a death benefit
payable to a beneficiary). It would be possible under this option to
receive only one annuity payment if the Annuitant died prior to the due
date of the second annuity payment.
Second Option-Life Annuity With 120, 180 or 240 Monthly Payments
Guaranteed. An Annuity payable monthly during the lifetime of the
Annuitant with the guarantee that if, at the death of the Annuitant,
payments have been made for less than 120, 180 or 240 months, as elected,
annuity payments will be continued during the remainder of such period to
the beneficiary designated by the Contract Owner. If no beneficiary is
designated, Great American Reserve will, in accordance with the Contract
provisions, pay in a lump sum to the Annuitant's estate the present
value, as of the date of death, of the number of guaranteed annuity
payments remaining after that date, computed on the basis of the assumed
net investment rate used in determining the first monthly payment (see
"Determination of Amount of the First Monthly Variable Annuity
Payment").
Because it provides a specified minimum number of annuity payments,
this option results in somewhat lower payments per month than the First
Option.
Third Option-Joint and Last Survivor Life Annuity. An Annuity payable
monthly during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and a designated
second person, and thereafter during the remaining lifetime of the
survivor. Payments to the survivor
<PAGE>
will be at the rate of 100 percent, 75 percent, 662/3 percent or 50
percent of the amount which would have been payable to the Annuitant, the
applicable rate being elected at the time this option is elected. This
option is designed primarily for couples who require the maximum possible
payments during their joint lives and are not concerned with providing
for beneficiaries at the death of the last to survive. Under current law,
this option is automatically provided for a participant in a pension plan
who is married and for married participants in most other qualified
plans; however, a married participant may waive the joint and last
survivor annuity during the appropriate election period if such
participant's spouse consents in writing (acknowledging the effect of
such consent) to such waiver.
Fourth Option-Payments for a Designated Period. Payments are made for the
number of years selected, which may be from one through 30, except that,
if the number of Completed Purchase Payment Periods for the Individual
Account is five or less, the number of years selected for this Option may
not be less than five minus the number of Completed Annual Contribution
Periods. For example, if the number of Completed Annual Contribution
Periods is three, then the minimum annuity payment period which can be
elected for this Option is two years (i.e., five minus three). If elected
on a variable basis, payments under this option will vary monthly in
accordance with the net investment rate of the Accounts of Variable
Account, as applicable. Should the Annuitant die before the specified
number of monthly payments is made, the remaining payments will be
commuted and paid to the designated beneficiary in a lump sum payment.
Fifth Option-Payments of a Designated Dollar Amount. Payments of a
designated dollar amount on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual
basis are made until the Individual Account value applied under this
option, adjusted each Valuation Period to reflect investment experience,
is exhausted within a minimum of three years and a maximum of 20 years.
The designated amount of each installment may not be less than $6.25 per
month per $1,000 of Individual Account value applied. If the number of
Completed Annual Contribution Periods for the Individual Account is five
or less, the designated amount of each installment may not be greater
than an amount which would total the value applied in less than five
minus the number of Completed Annual Contribution Periods. For example,
if the number of Completed Annual Contribution Periods is three, then the
payments cannot be greater than an amount which would total the value
applied in two years (i.e., five minus three). Should the Annuitant die
before the value is exhausted, the remaining value will be paid to the
beneficiary in one sum. In lieu of a lump sum payment, the beneficiary
may elect an annuity option for distribution of any amount on deposit at
the date of the Annuitant's death which shall result in a rate of payment
at least as rapid as the rate of payment during the life of the
Annuitant.
To the extent that the fourth or fifth Option is effected on a variable
basis, at any time during the payment period the Contract Owner may elect that
the remaining value be applied to effect a lifetime annuity under one of the
first two Options described above, provided that the balance is at least
$5,000 and the distribution will be made at least as rapidly as during the
life of the Annuitant. Since the Contract Owner may elect a lifetime annuity
at any time, the annuity rate and expense risks continue during the payment
period. Accordingly, deductions for these risks will continue to be made from
the Individual Account values.
Determination of Amount of the First Monthly Variable Annuity Payment.
When annuity payments commence, the value of the Individual Account is
determined as the total of the product(s) of (a) the value of an Accumulation
Unit for each investment medium at the end of the second Valuation Period
immediately preceding the Valuation Period in which the first annuity payment
is due and (b) the number of Accumulation Units credited to the Individual
Account with respect to each
<PAGE>
investment medium as of the date the Annuity is to commence. Premium tax, if
assessed at such time by the applicable jurisdiction, will be deducted from
the Individual Account value. Any portion of the Individual Account value for
which a fixed annuity election has been made is applied to provide fixed-
dollar payments under the option elected.
The amount of the first monthly variable annuity payment is then
calculated by multiplying the Individual Account value which is to be applied
to provide variable payments by the amount of first monthly payment per $1,000
of value, in accordance with annuity tables contained in the Contract. The
annuity tables are based on the Progressive Annuity Table, assuming births in
the year 1900. For Annuitants whose year of birth is after 1915, an "adjusted
age"is used, which is one year less than actual age. The amount of first
monthly payment per $1,000 of value varies according to the form of annuity
selected (see "Annuity Options"), the age of the Annuitant (for certain
options) and the assumed net investment rate selected by the Contract Owner.
The standard assumed net investment rate is 3 1/2 percent per annum; however,
an alternative 5 percent per annum, or such other rate as Great American
Reserve may offer, may be selected prior to the commencement of annuity
payments.
The assumed net investment rates built into the annuity tables affect
both the amount of the first monthly variable annuity payment and the amount
by which subsequent payments may increase or decrease. Selection of a 5
percent rate, rather than the standard 3 1/2 percent rate, would produce a
higher first payment but subsequent payments would increase more slowly in
periods when Annuity Unit values are rising and decrease more rapidly in
periods when Annuity Unit values are declining. With either assumed rate, if
the actual net investment rate during any two or more successive months were
equal to the assumed rate, the annuity payments would be level during that
period.
If a greater first monthly payment would result, Great American Reserve
will compute the first monthly payment on the same mortality basis as used in
determining the first payment under immediate annuity contracts being issued
for a similar class of Annuitants at the date the first monthly payment is due
under the Contract.
Value of an Annuity Unit. At the commencement of the Annuity Period, a
number of Annuity Units is established for the Contract Owner for each
investment option on which variable annuity payments are to be based. For each
Sub-account of Variable Account, the number of Annuity Units established is
calculated by dividing (i) the amount of the first monthly variable annuity
payment on that basis by (ii) the annuity unit value for that basis for the
current Valuation Period. That number of Annuity Units remains constant
throughout the Annuity Period and is the basis for calculating the amount of
the second and subsequent annuity payments.
The Annuity Unit value is determined for each Valuation Period, for each
investment option, and is equal to the Annuity Unit value for the preceding
Valuation Period multiplied by the product of (i) the net investment factor
for the appropriate Sub-account (see "Net Investment Factor for Each Valuation
Period") for the second preceding Valuation Period and (ii) a factor to
neutralize the assumed net investment rate built into the annuity tables
(discussed under the preceding caption), for it is replaced by the actual net
investment rate in step (i). The daily factor for a 3 1/2 percent assumed net
investment rate is .99990576; for a 5 percent rate, the daily factor is
.99986634.
Amounts of Subsequent Monthly Variable Annuity Payments. The amounts of
second and subsequent monthly variable annuity payments are determined by
multiplying (i) the number of Annuity Units established for the Annuitant for
the applicable Sub-account by (ii) the Annuity Unit value for the Sub-account.
If Annuity Units are established for more than one Sub-account, the
calculation is made separately and the results combined to determine the total
monthly variable annuity payment.
1. Example of Calculation of Monthly Variable Annuity Payments. The
determination of the amount of the variable annuity payments can be
illustrated by the following hypothetical example.
<PAGE>
The example assumes that the monthly payments are based on the investment
experience of only one Sub-account. If payments were based on the
investment experience of more than one Sub-account, the same procedure
would be followed to determine the portion of the monthly payment
attributed to each Sub-account.
2. First Monthly Payment. Assume that at the date of retirement there are
40,000 Accumulation Units credited under a particular Individual Account
and that the value of an Accumulation Unit for the second Valuation
Period prior to retirement was $1.40000000; this produces a total value
for the Individual Account of $56,000. Assume also that no premium tax is
payable and that the annuity tables in the Contract provide, for the
option elected, a first monthly variable annuity payment of $6.57 per
$1,000 of value applied; the first monthly payment to the Annuitant would
thus be 56 multiplied by $6.57, or $367.92.
Assume that the Annuity Unit Value for the Valuation Period in which the
first monthly payment was due was $1.3000000000. This is divided into the
amount of the first monthly payment to establish the number of Annuity
Units for the Participant: $367.92 / $1.30000000 produces 283.015 Annuity
Units. The value of this number of Annuity Units will be paid in each
subsequent month.
3. Second Monthly Payment. The current Annuity Unit value is first
calculated. Assume a net investment factor of 1.01000000 for the second
Valuation Period preceding the due date of the second monthly payment.
This is multiplied by .99713732 to neutralize the assumed net investment
rate of 3 1/2 percent per annum built into the number of Annuity Units
determined above (if an assumed net investment rate of 5 percent had been
elected, the neutralization factor would be .99594241), producing a
result of 1.00710869. This is then multiplied by the Annuity Unit value
for the Valuation Period preceding the due date of the second monthly
payment (assume this value to be $1.30000000) to produce the current
Annuity Unit value, $1.30924130.
The second monthly payment is then calculated by multiplying the constant
number of Annuity Units by the current Annuity Unit value: 283.015 times
$1.30924130 produces a payment of $370.53.
Transfers During the Annuity Period. Transfers during the Annuity Period
may be made upon written notice to Great American Reserve at least 30 days
before the due date of the first annuity payment for which the change will
apply. Transfers will be made by converting the number of Annuity Units being
transferred to the number of Annuity Units of the Sub-account to which the
transfer is made, so that the next annuity payment if it were made at that
time would be the same amount that it would have been without the transfer.
Thereafter, annuity payments will reflect changes in the value of the new
Annuity Units. Great American Reserve reserves the right to limit, upon
notice, the maximum number of transfers a Contract Owner may make to one in
any six-month period once annuity payments have commenced. In addition, no
transfers may be made from a fixed annuity option. Great American Reserve
reserves the right to defer the transfer privilege at any time that Great
American Reserve is unable to purchase or redeem shares of the Funds. Great
American Reserve also reserves the right to modify or terminate the transfer
privilege at any time in accordance with applicable law.
Death Benefit During the Annuity Period. If annuity payments have been
selected based on an annuity option providing for payments for a guaranteed
period, and the Annuitant dies during the Annuity Period, Great American
Reserve will make the remaining guaranteed payments to the beneficiary. Such
payments will be made at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution
being used as of the date of the Annuitant's death. If no beneficiary is
living, Great American Reserve will commute any unpaid guaranteed payments to
a single sum (on the basis of the interest rate used in determining the
payments) and pay that single sum to the Annuitant's estate.
<PAGE>
C. Other Contract Provisions
Company Approval. Each application is subject to acceptance by Great
American Reserve. Upon acceptance, a Contract is issued to the Contract Owner
and the Purchase Payment, as applicable to each Individual Account, is
credited to the Participant's account. If an application is complete upon
receipt, the Purchase Payment will be credited to the Participant's account
within two business days. If it is not complete, Great American Reserve will
request additional information to complete the processing of the application.
If this is not accomplished with five business days, Great American Reserve
will return the Purchase Payment to the applicant unless otherwise instructed.
Subsequent Purchase Payments will be credited to the Participant's account at
the price next computed after the Purchase Payment is received by Great
American Reserve at its Administrative Office.
Ten-Day Right to Review. Contracts allow a "10- day free look," wherein
the Contract Owner or Participant may revoke the contract by returning it to
either a Great American Reserve representative or to Great American Reserve's
Variable Annuity Department within 10 days of delivery of the Contract. Great
American Reserve deems this period as ending 15 days after a Contract is
mailed from its Variable Annuity Department. If the Contract is returned under
the terms of the 10-day free look, Great American Reserve will refund to the
Contract Owner or Participant an amount equal to all payments received with
respect to the Contract, unless a larger refund is required by state law.
Modification of the Contract. Great American Reserve may not modify the
Contract during the first year it is in force, except with the approval of the
Contract Owner. After the Contract has been in force for one year, it may be
modified by Great American Reserve on the first anniversary of the effective
date, and each subsequent anniversary except that
(a) the annuity mortality obligation,
(b) the contractual promise that the contingent sales deduction and annual
administrative fee cannot be increased, and
(c) the deduction for the contractual promises and obligations in (a) and (b)
which are applicable at the time of a Participant's entry into the Plan
will continue to be applicable to all future Purchase Payments on behalf
of that Participant.
The Contract shall be suspended automatically on the effective date of
any modification initiated by Great American Reserve if the Contract Owner
fails to accept the modification. Effective with suspension, no new
Participants may enter the Plan but further Purchase Payments may be made on
behalf of Participants then covered by the Contract.
No modification may affect Annuitants in any manner unless deemed
necessary to achieve the requirements of federal or state statutes or any rule
or regulation of the United States Treasury Department.
Transfer of Ownership, Assignment. Unless contrary to law, assignment of
the Contract or of a Participant's Individual Account is prohibited.
FEDERAL TAX MATTERS
A. General
The operations of Variable Account form a part of and are taxed with, the
operations of Great American Reserve as a separate account under the Code.
Accordingly, Variable Account (or any Sub-account thereof) is not separately
taxed as a trust or corporation and has not elected to be treated as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Code. Investment
income and realized capital gains on the assets of Variable Account are
reinvested and taken into account in determining the Accumulation and Annuity
Unit values and are automatically applied to increase reserves under the
Contracts. Under existing federal income tax law, separate account investment
income and capital gains are not taxed. Therefore, Variable Account does not
make provisions for any such taxes. If changes in the federal tax laws or
interpretations thereof were to result in Great American Reserve being taxed
on income
<PAGE>
or gains attributable to any of Variable Account or any Sub-account thereof or
certain types of Contracts, then Great American Reserve has reserved the right
to impose a charge against Variable Account and its constituent Sub-accounts
(with respect to some or all Contracts) in order to reimburse itself for
payment of such taxes.
B. Status of Annuity Contracts
Section 72 of the Code governs taxation of annuities in general. However,
Section 817(h) of the Code provides that variable annuity contracts such as
the Contracts will not be treated as annuities unless the underlying
investments are "adequately diversified" in accordance with regulations
prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury. Under the final regulations
adopted by the Treasury with respect to the diversification requirements of
Section 817(h), there are specific requirements as to the percentage of
assets in the account which may be made up of one or more investments.
Generally, an account will be considered adequately diversified if
(A) no more than 55 percent of the value of the total assets of the account is
represented by any one investment; (B) no more than 70 percent of the value of
the total assets of the account is represented by any two investments; (C) no
more than 80 percent of the value of the total assets of the account is
represented by any three investments; and (D) no more than 90 percent of the
value of the total assets of the account is represented by any four
investments. For purposes of this test, all securities of the same issuer are
counted as one investment. Great American Reserve believes that the investment
policies of Variable Account and each Sub-account are more stringent than the
diversification rules and therefore that Variable Account and each Sub-account
do and will continue to satisfy the diversification requirement of Section
817(h).
In addition, pursuant to Section 72(s) of the Code, a Contract will not
be treated as an annuity contract for purposes of Section 72 unless the
Contract provides that (A) if the Contract Owner dies on or after the annuity
starting date but prior to the time the entire interest in the Contract has
been distributed, the remaining portion of such interest must be distributed
at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in effect at the time
of the Contract Owner's death; and (B) if the Contract Owner dies prior to the
annuity starting date, the entire interest must be generally (1) distributed
within five years after the death of the Contract Owner or (2) distributed as
annuity payments over the life of a designated beneficiary (or over a period
that does not extend beyond the life expectancy of a designated beneficiary)
and that such distributions begin within one year of the Contract Owner's
death. Section 72(s) also provides, however, that the Contract may be
continued in the name of the spouse as the Contract Owner. Comparable rules
concerning required distributions plus additional rules also apply to
qualified Plans and to IRAs. Great American Reserve believes that the
Contracts described in this Prospectus meet these requirements.
Qualified Contracts. Qualified Contracts are those contracts which are
held as part of the assets of qualified pension, profit sharing, annuity
purchase or other qualified plan as described below. Generally, increases in
the value of an individual's account under a Contract purchased in connection
with a qualified Plan are not taxable until benefits are received. The rules
governing the tax treatment of contributions and distributions under such
Plans, as set forth in the Code and applicable rulings and regulations, are
complex and subject to change. These rules also vary according to the type of
Plan and the terms and conditions of the Plan itself. Therefore, no attempt is
made herein to provide more than general information about the use of
Contracts with the various types of Plans, based on Great American Reserve's
understanding of the current federal tax laws as interpreted by the Internal
Revenue Service. Purchasers of Contracts for use with such a Plan and Plan
Participants and their beneficiaries should consult legal counsel and other
competent advisers as to the suitability of the Plan and the Contract to their
specific needs, and as to applicable Code limitations and tax consequences.
Participants under such Plans, as well as Contract Owners, Annuitants, and
beneficiaries, should also be aware that the rights of any person with any
<PAGE>
benefits under such Plans may be subject to the terms and conditions of the
Plans themselves regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract. The
Code imposes a number of rules for all qualified Plans, including among other
things, nondiscrimination rules, maximum and minimum contributions,
distribution dates, nonforfeitability of interests, and penalties for
noncompliance. There are additional restrictions for so-called "top-heavy
plans." Competent advisers should be consulted with respect to the impact of
the Code on the qualification of the plan and the taxation of the employee
participating therein.
Following are brief descriptions of the various types of Plans and of the
use of Contracts in connection therewith.
1. Government and Tax-Exempt Organizations' Deferred Compensation Plans.
Under Code provisions, employees and independent contractors performing
services for state and local governments and other tax-exempt
organizations may participate in Deferred Compensation plans. While
participants in such Plans may be permitted to specify the form of
investment in which their Plan accounts will participate, all such
investments are owned by the sponsoring employer and are subject to the
claims of its creditors. The amounts deferred under a Plan which meets
the requirements of Section 457 of the Code are not taxable as income to
the participant until paid or otherwise made available to the participant
or beneficiary. As a general rule, the maximum amount which can be
deferred in any one year is the lesser of $7,500 or 33 1/3 percent of the
participant's includable compensation. However, in limited circumstances,
up to $15,000 may be deferred in each of the last three years before
normal retirement age.
2. Public School Systems and Certain Tax-Exempt Organizations. Payments made
to purchase annuity contracts by public school systems or certain tax-
exempt organizations for their employees are excludable from the gross
income of the employee to the extent that aggregate payments for the
employee do not exceed the "exclusion allowance" provided by Section
403(b) of the Code, the limits on salary deferrals under Section 402(g),
or the overall limits for excludable contributions of Section 415 of the
Code. Furthermore, the investment results credited to the Sub-account are
not taxable until benefits are received either in the form of annuity
payments or in a single sum.
If an employee's Individual Account is surrendered, usually the full
amount received would be includable in income for that year and taxed at
ordinary rates.
3. Qualified Corporate Employees' Pension and Profit-Sharing Trust and
Qualified Annuity Plans. Contributions made to purchase Contracts by an
employer and the earnings on such contributions for Plans that are
qualified under Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code are not taxable as
income to the employee until distributed to him or her. However, the
employee may be required to include these amounts in gross income prior
to distribution if the qualified Plan loses its qualification. Plans
qualified under Section 401(a) or 403(a) of the Code are subject to
extensive rules, including limitations on maximum contributions or
benefits.
Distributions of amounts not attributable to nondeductible employee
contributions are generally taxable as ordinary income unless the distribution
qualifies for "lump-sum" treatment.
Under the Code, special considerations apply to Plans covering self-
employed individuals. Such Plans are subject to extensive rules, including
limitations on maximum contributions or benefits involving "key employees" or
5 percent owners, as well as to special rules pertaining to "top heavy"
Plans. Purchasers of the Contracts for use with these Plans should seek
competent advice as to the suitability of certain types of Plans and the
funding contracts to be purchased.
C. Taxation of Distributions
The following rules generally apply to distributions from Contracts
purchased in connection with the Plans
<PAGE>
discussed above, other than governmental deferred compensation plans.
The portion, if any, of any contribution under a Contract made by or on
behalf of an individual which is not excluded from the employee's gross income
(generally, the employee's own non-deductible contributions) constitutes his
or her "investment in the Contract." If a distribution is made in the form
of annuity payments, the employee's "investment in the Contract" (adjusted
for certain refund provisions) divided by his or her life expectancy (or other
period for which annuity payments are expected to be made) constitutes tax-
free return of investments each year not to exceed the total contribution to
the plan less any amounts previously received which are excluded from income.
The dollar amount of annuity payments received in any year in excess of such
return is taxable as ordinary income. In certain circumstances, tax may be
deferred by rolling over the proceeds to an IRA or another qualified plan. If
a surrender of or withdrawal from the Contract is effected and a distribution
is made in a single payment, the proceeds may qualify for special "lump sum
distribution"treatment under certain qualified Plans, as discussed below.
If an employee or beneficiary receives a "lump sum distribution"; that
is, in general if the employee or beneficiary receives in a single tax year
the total amounts payable with respect to that employee from a Plan and all
similar plans and the benefits are paid as a result of the employee's death,
disability or separation from service or after the employee attains age 59 1/2,
taxable gain may be treated as long-term capital gain and taxed at 20 percent
to the extent that the lump sum distribution reflects contributions to the
Plan made prior to January 1, 1974. This favorable capital gains treatment was
phased out over a five-year period beginning in 1987 unless the participant
attained age 50 on or before January 1, 1986. The balance of such lump sum
distribution will be subject to ordinary income taxation. It may be
advantageous under the Code in certain circumstances to elect special "five-
year averaging"(or "10-year averaging" under transitioned years) treatment
of the entire taxable portion of the distribution.
The taxation of benefits payable upon an employee's death to his
beneficiary generally follows these same principles, subject to a variety of
special rules.
Annuity distributions are generally subject to withholding for the
recipient's income tax liability. For distributions beginning in 1993, the
provisions contained in the Unemployment Compensation Amendments of 1992 and
related regulations generally apply. The new law generally mandates federal
withholding equal to 20 percent of any distribution from tax qualified plans
and Section 403(b) annuities that is not a "direct rollover" to a new
trustee, or custodian in the case of an IRA. The new law does not apply to
Section 457 plans. Under prior law, recipients were provided the opportunity
to elect not to have tax withheld from distributions; to the extent the new
mandatory 20 percent withholding provisions do not apply, this election
generally remains.
Withholding on Deferred Compensation plans is treated similar to wages
and varies according to the type of distribution and the recipient's tax
status.
There also may be imposed a penalty tax on partial withdrawals and
complete surrenders equal to 10 percent of the amount treated as taxable
income. In general, there is no penalty tax on the following withdrawals or
surrenders: (1) a distribution that is part of a scheduled series of
substantially equal periodic payments for the life of the participant, or the
joint lives of the participant and beneficiary (commencing after separation
from service in the case of a qualified plan); (2) made on or after age 59 1/2;
(3) a distribution to terminated employee, age 55 or older; (4) a hardship
distribution used to pay certain medical expenses; (5) a distribution made to,
or on behalf of, an alternate payee pursuant to a qualified domestic relations
order; and (6) a distribution after death or disability of the employee; and
(7) a distribution from a governmental deferred compensation plan.
Additionally, the tax does not apply to cashouts of less than $3,500 which do
not require the participant's consent.

D. Other Considerations
It should be understood that the foregoing comments about the federal tax
consequences under these Contracts are not exhaustive and that special rules
are provided with respect to other tax situations not discussed herein.
Further, the federal income tax consequences discussed herein reflect current
law which is subject to change at any time. The foregoing discussion also does
not address any applicable state, local or foreign tax laws. Before an
investment is made in any of the above plans, a tax adviser should be
consulted.
VOTING RIGHTS
Contract Owners may instruct Great American Reserve as to the voting of
Fund shares attributable to their respective interests under the Contracts at
meetings of shareholders of the Funds. Contract Owners entitled to vote will
receive proxy material and a form on which voting instructions may be given.
Great American Reserve will vote the shares of Sub-accounts held by Variable
Account attributable to the Contracts in accordance with instructions received
from Contract Owners. Shares held in each Sub-account for which timely
instructions have not been received from Contract Owners will be voted by
Great American Reserve for or against any proposition, or Great American
Reserve will abstain, in the same proportion as shares in that Sub-account for
which instructions are received. Great American Reserve will vote, or abstain
from voting, any shares that are not attributable to Contract Owners in the
same proportion as all Contract Owners in Variable Account vote or abstain.
However, if Great American Reserve determines that it is permitted to vote
such shares of the Funds in its own right, it may elect to do so, subject to
the then-current interpretation of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder.
Under certain Variable Annuity Contracts, not including contracts issued
in connection with governmental employers' deferred compensation plans
described in this Prospectus, Participants and Annuitants have the right to
instruct the Contract Owner with respect to the number of votes attributable
to their Individual Accounts or valuation reserve. Votes attributable to
Participants and Annuitants who do not instruct the Contract Owner will be
cast by the Contract Owner for or against each proposal to be voted upon, in
the same proportion as votes for which instructions have been received.
Participants and Annuitants entitled to instruct the casting of votes will
receive a notice of each meeting of Contract Owners, and proxy solicitation
materials, and a statement of the number of votes attributable to their
participation under the Contract.
The number of shares held in a Sub-account deemed attributable to a
Contract Owner's interest under a Contract will be determined on the basis of
the value of the Accumulation Units credited to the Contract Owner's account
as of the record date. On or after the commencement of Annuity payments, the
number of attributable shares will be based on the amount of assets held to
meet annuity obligations to the payee under the Contract as of the record
date. During the annuity period, the number of votes attributable to a
Contract will generally decrease since funds set aside for Annuitants will
decrease as payments are made.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND HISTORY
Great American Reserve is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Conseco,
Inc. ("Conseco"). The operations of Great American Reserve are handled by
Conseco. Conseco is a publicly owned financial services holding company, the
principal operations of which are in the development, marketing and
administration of specialized annuity and life insurance products. Conseco has
its principal offices at 11825 N. Pennsylvania Street, Carmel, Indiana 46032.
The Variable Account was established by Great American Reserve.
INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
The financial statements of Great American Reserve Variable Annuity
Account C and Great American Reserve have been examined by Coopers & Lybrand
L.L.P., Indianapolis, Indiana, independent accountants, for the periods
indicated in their reports as stated in their opinion and have been so included
in reliance upon such opinion given upon the authority of that firm as experts
in accounting and auditing.
DISTRIBUTION
Great American Reserve continuously offers the Contracts through associated
persons of the principal underwriter for Variable Account, GARCO Equity Sales,
Inc. ("GARCO Equity Sales"), a registered broker-dealer and member of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. GARCO Equity Sales is located
at 11815 N. Pennsylvania Street, Carmel, Indiana 46032, and is an affiliate of
Great American Reserve. For the years ending December 31, 1995, December 31,
1994, and December 31, 1993, Great American Reserve paid GARCO Equity Sales
total underwriting commissions of $2,258,273, $3,025,419, and $2,829,536,
respectively. In addition, certain Contracts may be sold by life
insurance/registered representatives of other registered broker-dealers.
GARCO Equity Sales performs the sales functions relating to the Contracts
and Great American Reserve provides all administrative services. To cover the
sales expenses and administrative expenses (including such items as salaries,
rent, postage, telephone, travel, legal, actuarial, audit, office equipment and
printing), Great American Reserve makes sales and administrative deductions,
varying by type of Contract. See "Contract Charges" in the Prospectus.
CALCULATION OF YIELD QUOTATIONS
The Money Market Sub-account's standard yield quotations may appear in
sales material and advertising as calculated by the standard method prescribed
by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under this method, the yield
quotation is based on a seven-day period and computed as follows: The Money
Market Sub-account's daily net investment factor minus one (1.00) is multiplied
by 365 to produce an annualized yield. The annualized yields of the seven-day
period are then averaged and carried to the nearest one-hundredth of one
percent. This yield reflects investment results less deductions for investment
advisory fees and mortality and expense risk fees but does not include
deductions for any applicable annual administrative fees. Because of these
deductions, the yield for the Money Market Sub-account will be lower than the
yield for the corresponding Fund of the Conseco Series Trust.
The Money Market Sub-account's effective yield may appear in sales material
and advertising for the same seven-day period, determined on a compound basis.
The effective yield is calculated by compounding the unannualized base period
return by adding one to the base period return, raising the sum to a power equal
to 365 divided by 7, and subtracting one from the result.
The yield on the Money Market Sub-account will generally fluctuate on a
daily basis. Therefore, the yield for any given past period is not an
indication or representation of future yields or rates of return. The actual
yield is affected by changes in interest rates on money market securities,
average portfolio maturity, the types and quality of portfolio securities held
by the corresponding Fund of the Conseco Series Trust and its operating
expenses.
The Conseco Series Trust Asset Allocation, Common Stock, Corporate Bond,
and Government Securities Portfolios; The Alger American Fund Leveraged AllCap
<PAGE>
and Small Capitalization Portfolios; The Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth
Fund, Inc.; the Dreyfus Stock Index Fund; the Federated Insurance Series High
Income Bond, International Equity, and Utility Funds; the Janus Aspen Series
Aggressive Growth, Growth, and Worldwide Growth Portfolios; and the Van Eck
Worldwide Insurance Trust Gold and Natural Resources, Worldwide Bond, and
Worldwide Hard Assets Funds may advertise investment performance figures,
including yield. Each Sub-account's yield will be based upon a stated 30-day
period and will be computed by dividing the net investment income per share
earned during the period by the maximum offering price per share on the last day
of the period, according to the following formula:
YIELD = 2 ((A-B/CD) + 1)^6 -1
Where:
A = the dividends and interest earned during the
period.
B = the expenses accrued for the period (net of
reimbursements, if any).
C = the average daily number of shares out-
standing during the period that were entitled
to receive dividends.
D = the maximum offering (which is the net
asset value) per share on the last day of the
period.
CALCULATION OF TOTAL RETURN QUOTATIONS
Great American Reserve may include certain total return quotations for the
Conseco Series Trust Asset Allocation, Common Stock, Corporate Bond, and
Government Securities Portfolios; The Alger American Fund Growth, Leveraged
AllCap, MidCap Growth, and Small Capitalization Portfolios; The Dreyfus Socially
Responsible Growth Fund, Inc.; the Dreyfus Stock Index Fund; the Federated
Insurance Series High Income Bond, International Equity, and Utility Funds; the
Janus Aspen Series Aggressive Growth, Growth, and Worldwide Growth Portfolios;
and the Van Eck Worldwide Insurance Trust Gold and Natural Resources, Worldwide
Bond, and Worldwide Hard Assets Funds in advertising, sales literature or
reports to Contract Owners or prospective purchasers. Such total return
quotations will be expressed as the average annual rate of total return over
one-, five- and 10-year periods ended as of the end of the immediately preceding
calendar quarter, and as the dollar amount of annual total return on a year-to-
year, rolling 12-month basis ended as of the end of the immediately preceding
calendar quarter.
Average annual total return quotations are computed according to the
following formula:
P (1+T)^n = ERV
Where:
P = beginning purchase payment of $1,000.
T = average annual total return.
n = number of years in period.
ERV = ending redeemable value of a hypothetical
$1,000 purchase payment made at the begin-
ning of the one-, five- or 10-year period at
the end of the one-, five- or 10-year period
(or fractional portion thereof).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF GREAT AMERICAN RESERVE INSURANCE COMPANY AND

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of

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 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 portfolio shares owned at December 31, 1995 by correspondence
with custodians. 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 referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Great American Reserve Variable
Annuity Account C as of December 31, 1995, and the results of its operations and
changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Great American Reserve Variable Annuity Account C
Notes to Financial Statements
(1) GENERAL
Great American Reserve Variable Annuity Account C ("Account C") was
established in 1980 as a segregated investment account for individual and group
variable annuity contracts which are registered under the Securities Act of
1933. Account C is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "Act"), as a unit investment trust. Account C was originally
registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a diversified
open-end management investment company under the Act. Effective May 1, 1993,
Account C was restructured into a single unit investment trust which invested
solely in shares of the portfolios of the Conseco Series Trust, a diversified
open-end management investment company.
The operations of Account C are included in the operations of Great
American Reserve Insurance Company (the "Company") pursuant to the provisions
of the Texas Insurance Code. The Company is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary
of Conseco, Inc., a publicly-held specialized financial services holding
company listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
On June 1, 1995, the following investment options were available:
THE ALGER AMERICAN FUND
Leveraged AllCap Portfolio
Small Capitalization Portfolio
THE CONSECO SERIES TRUST
Asset Allocation Portfolio
Common Stock Portfolio
Corporate Bond Portfolio
Government Securities Portfolio
Money Market Portfolio
DREYFUS STOCK INDEX FUND

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Investment Valuation, Transactions and Income
Investments in portfolio shares are valued using the net asset value of
the respective portfolios at the end of each New York Stock Exchange business
day, with the exception of regional business holidays. Investment share
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis (the date the order to
purchase or redeem shares is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. The cost of investments in portfolio shares sold is
determined on a first-in first-out basis. Account C does not hold any
investments which are restricted as to resale.
Net investment income and net realized gain (loss) and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) on investments are allocated to the contracts on
each valuation date based on each contract's pro rata share of the assets of
Account C as of the beginning of the valuation date.
Federal Income Taxes
No provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying
financial statements because the operations of Account C are included in the
total operations of the Company, which is treated as a life insurance company
for federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code. Net investment
income and realized gains (losses) are retained in Account C and are not
taxable until received by the contract owner or beneficiary in the form of
annuity payments or other distributions.
Annuity Reserves
Deferred annuity contract reserves are comprised of net contract purchase
payments less redemptions and benefits. These reserves are adjusted daily for
the net investment income and net realized gain (loss) and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) on investments.
Annuity payment reserves for contracts under which contract owners are
receiving periodic retirement payments are computed according to the
Progressive Annuity Mortality Table. The assumed net investment rate is equal
to the assumed rate of accumulation.
<PAGE>
The annuity unit values for periodic retirement payments were as shown below.
December 31, December 31,
1995 1994
Conseco Series Trust:
Common Stock
Qualified $ 4.163 $ 3.188
Nonqualified $ 3.854 $ 2.951
Corporate Bond
Qualified $ 4.580 $ 4.039
(3) PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS IN PORTFOLIO SHARES
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments in
portfolio shares for the year ended December 31, 1995 were $35,364,218 and
$5,577,299, respectively.
(4) DEDUCTIONS AND EXPENSES
Although periodic retirement payments to contract owners vary according to
the investment performance of the portfolios, such payments are not affected by
mortality or expense experience because the Company assumes the mortality and
expense risks under the contracts.
The mortality risk assumed by the Company results from the life annuity
payment option in the contracts in which the Company agrees to make annuity
payments regardless of how long a particular annuitant or other payee lives.
The annuity payments are determined in accordance with annuity purchase rate
provisions established at the time the contracts are issued. Based on the
actuarial determination of expected mortality, the Company is required to fund
any deficiency in the annuity payment reserves from its general account assets.
The expense risk assumed by the Company is the risk that the deductions
for sales and administrative expenses may prove insufficient to cover the
actual sales and administrative expenses.
The Company deducts daily from Account C a fee, which is equal on an
annual basis to 1.00 percent of the daily value of the total investments of
Account C, for assuming the mortality and expense risks except for the Conseco
Series Trust Common Stock, Corporate Bond and Money Market portfolios which are
0.64%, 0.74% and 0.99%, respectively. These fees were $764,864 and $580,978 for
the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Pursuant to an agreement between Account C and the Company (which may be
terminated by the Company), the Company provides sales and administrative
services to Account C, as well as a minimum death benefit prior to retirement
for certain contracts. Under individual contracts and group deferred
compensation contracts, the Company may deduct a percentage of amounts
surrendered to cover sales expenses. The percentage varies up to 8.00 percent
based on the type of contract and the number of years the contract has been
outstanding. In addition, the Company deducts units from certain contracts
annually and upon full surrender to cover an administrative fee of $15, $20, or
$25.
Under group contracts no longer being sold, the Company deducts a
percentage of the renewal contract purchase payments to cover sales and
administrative expenses and the minimum death benefit prior to retirement of
the contract owners.
Sales and administrative charges were $75,162 and $78,399 for the years
ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
(5) OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
GARCO Equity Sales, Inc., an affiliate of the Company, is the principal
underwriter and performs all variable annuity sales functions on behalf of the
Company.
(6) NET ASSETS
Net assets consisted of the following at December 31, 1995:
Proceeds from the sales of units
since organization, less cost
of units redeemed....................................... $ 48,439,237
Undistributed net investment income......................... 41,406,560

GREAT AMERICAN RESERVE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO STATUTORY BASIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
Great American Reserve Insurance Company (the "Company"), a life insurance
company domiciled in the State of Texas, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Jefferson National Life Insurance Company of Texas ("Jefferson National of
Texas"), a life insurance company domiciled in the State of Texas and an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Conseco, Inc., a publicly held specialized
financial services holding company.
On August 31, 1995, Conseco purchased all of the shares of common stock that
it did not previously own (50.5%) of CCP Insurance, Inc., the Company's indirect
parent, and effected a merger, with Conseco as the surviving company.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners and the State of Texas Department of Insurance. These
practices differ in certain respects from generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP"). The significant differences which impact net income or
surplus are:
a. Policy acquisition costs are charged to operations as incurred rather than
deferred and amortized over the lives of the policies.
b. Future policy benefit liabilities are based on statutory mortality and
interest requirements and may differ from liabilities based on reasonably
conservative estimates of expected mortality, interest and withdrawals for
traditional life insurance products and the fund balances of universal life
insurance products.
c. Deferred income taxes are not provided for temporary differences in
reporting of income and expenses for financial reporting and tax purposes.
d. The asset valuation reserve ("AVR"), which includes unrealized capital
gains and losses and credit-related realized capital gains and losses, net
of tax, on all invested assets excluding cash, policy loans and premium
notes, is reported as a liability with changes reported in unassigned
surplus.
The interest maintenance reserve ("IMR"), which consists of interest-
related realized capital gains and losses, net of tax, to be amortized into
income over the approximate remaining lives of the fixed income securities
sold, is reported as a liability.
e. Certain assets designated as "non-admitted" assets are reported as a
reduction of unassigned surplus.
f. Fixed maturities designated as available for sale are valued at amortized
cost rather than market value.
g. Premiums on interest sensitive and annuity policies are recognized as
income rather than policy liabilities.
The preparation of statutory basis financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the periods presented. Significant estimates and assumptions are utilized in the
calculation of insurance liabilities. Actual experience could differ from the
estimates and assumptions utilized which could have a material impact on the
financial statements.
<PAGE>
Recognition of Premiums
Premiums on traditional life, interest sensitive and annuity policies are
recognized as income on the policy anniversary dates or when received; group
life and individual and group health premiums are earned pro-rata over the terms
of the policies.
Insurance Liabilities
The liabilities for traditional life and interest sensitive policies, all
developed by actuarial methods, are established and maintained on the basis of
published tables using assumed interest rates and valuation methods that will
provide, in the aggregate, reserves that are greater than or equal to the
minimum valuation required by law or the guaranteed policy cash values.
Investments
Investments are valued on the following bases:
Bonds not backed by other loans-at amortized cost using the interest
method.
Loan-backed bonds and structured securities-at amortized cost using the
interest method including anticipated prepayments at the date of purchase;
significant changes in estimated cash flows from the original purchase
assumptions are accounted for using the specific identification method.
Preferred stocks-at cost.
Common stocks-at market.
Property acquired in satisfaction of debt-at depreciated cost, less
encumbrances.
Mortgage loans on real estate-at the aggregate unpaid balance.
Policy loans-at the aggregate unpaid balance.
Other invested assets-at the aggregate unpaid balance or at equity.
Prepayment assumptions for loan-backed bonds and structured securities were
obtained from the broker at the date of purchase. These assumptions are
generally consistent with the current interest rate and economic environment.
The prospective adjustment method is used to value these securities.
Realized gains or losses from the sale of investments are recognized on the
specific identification basis. Changes in the market value of common stocks are
reported as unrealized capital gains or losses and, accordingly, have no effect
on net income.
The Company uses the grouped method of amortization for interest related
gains and losses arising from the sale of fixed income investments.
<PAGE>
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in determining
the estimated fair values of investments:
Investment securities-for bonds, preferred stocks and common stocks, the
estimated fair values were determined using quoted market prices and
independent pricing services, where available. For investment securities
for which such quotes are not available, the estimated fair vales were
determined by discounting expected future cash flows using a current market
rate appropriate for the yield, credit quality and, for bonds, the
maturity.
Mortgage loans-Estimated fair values were determined by discounting
expected cash flows based on interest rates currently being offered for
similar loans to borrowers with similar credit ratings. Loans with similar
characteristics were aggregated in the calculations.
Real estate, policy loans, short-term investments and other invested
assets-The statutory carrying values of these assets approximated their
fair values as of December 31, 1995 and 1994.

the vast majority of account balances approximate current rates paid on
investment contracts and are not generally guaranteed beyond one year.
Investments in Affiliates
On January 2, 1995, the Company sold 100% of the common stock of GARCO
Equity Sales, Inc., to an affiliate.
Separate Accounts
Separate accounts represent funds for which investment income and gains
and losses accrue directly to the policyholders. The assets of each account
are legally segregated and are not subject to claims which may arise out of
other business of the Company.

its parent for the Company's portion of the federal income tax assessment
arising from the 1991 and 1992 tax periods.
5. BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has no employee retirement plan or deferred compensation plan.
However, the Company's employees are eligible to participate in Conseco's 401(k)
savings plan. Company contributions, which match certain voluntary employee
contributions to the plan, totaled $537,707 and $139,861 for the year ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. In addition, certain officers and
employees of the Company are included in Conseco's deferred compensation and
incentive stock option plans.
The Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits
("postretirement benefits") for currently retired employees only. Health care
benefits for retirees under age 65 are generally the same as indemnity benefits
offered to active employees; health care benefits coordinate with Medicare
benefits for retirees 65 and older. These benefits are generally set at fixed
amounts.
Net postretirement benefit costs for the year ended December 31, 1995 and
1994 were $63,992 and $27,200, respectively, and included interest cost and
gains and losses arising from differences between actuarial assumptions and
actual experience. In 1994, an actuarial gain of $33,800 resulted from the
reduction of the initial health care cost trend rate from 17% to 12%, which
was recognized in net postretirement benefit expense. The Company made
contributions to the plan of $19,992 and $26,100 in 1995 and 1994,
respectively, as claims were incurred.
At December 31, 1995 and 1994, the unfunded postretirement benefit obligation
for retirees was $525,800 and $481,800, respectively, and was included in other
liabilities. The discount rate used in determining the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 8.0% and the health care cost trend rate
was 12% graded to 5% over 12 years.
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company has given Crescent Realty Partners, a limited partnership created
to organize a number of limited partnerships to make equity investments in real
estate, a standby equity commitment of $5,000,000 until September 1997. The
Company had funded $4,848,837 of the commitment at December 31, 1995.
<PAGE>

partnership created to make equity investments in a variety of corporations, a
standby equity commitment of $10,000,000 until January 1999. As of December 31,
1995, the Company had funded $7,218,686 of the commitment.
The Company has given Mountain Star Limited Liability Company, a limited
liability company created for land development, a construction loan commitment
of $11,000,000. Mountain Star had drawn and repaid $10,691,653 as of December
31, 1995.
The Company has committed no reserves to cover any contingent liabilities.
Various lawsuits against the Company may arise in the ordinary course of the
Company's business. Contingent liabilities arising from litigation, income taxes
and other matters are not considered material in relation to the financial
position of the Company.
7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During 1995 and 1994, the Company did not own any shares of an upstream
intermediate or ultimate parent, either directly or indirectly via a downstream
subsidiary, controlled or affiliated company.
The Company has not made any guarantees or undertakings for the benefit of an
affiliate which would result in a material contingent exposure of the Company's
or any affiliated insurer's assets to loss.
Under an investment advisory services agreement, an affiliate of the Company
manages the Company's investments, for which expenses totalled $3,947,284 and
$3,990,479 in 1995 and 1994, respectively. In addition, an affiliate of the
Company provides executive management services, for which expenses totalled
$450,000 in both 1995 and 1994. Also, another affiliate provides origination and
servicing for the Company's mortgage loans, for which expenses totalled $368,460
and $331,720 in 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Company also has a service
agreement in which another affiliate provides certain accounting, tax,
marketing, actuarial, legal, data processing and other functional support
services. Expenses under this agreement totalled $20,378,895 and $20,155,406 in
1995 and 1994, respectively.
8. CAPITAL AND SURPLUS
The maximum amount of dividends which can be paid by State of Texas life
insurance companies to shareholders without prior approval of the Insurance
Commissioner is the greater of statutory net gain from operations before
realized capital gains or losses for the preceding year or 10% of statutory
surplus as regards policyholders at the end of the preceding year. Statutory net
gain from operations before realized capital gains or losses for 1995 was
$39,483,045. Statutory surplus as regards policyholders as of December 31, 1995
was $156,155,029. The maximum dividend payout which may be made without prior
approval in 1995 is $39,483,045. However, due to the restrictions on dividends
within a twelve month period, the maximum dividend payout may not be made
without prior approval until June 26, 1996.

proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to members of Great American Reserve's Board of
Directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
provisions described under "Indemnification" or otherwise, the Registrant has
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a member of the Board of Directors, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such member of the Board of Directors, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The Variable Account has no officers or employees. Employees of an
affiliated company who perform administrative services for the Variable Account
are covered by an officers and directors liability policy.

1.The Registrant hereby undertakes to file a post-effective amendment to
this registration statement as frequently as is necessary to ensure that the
audited financial statements in the registration statement are never more than
16 months old for so long as payments under the variable annuity contracts may
be accepted.
2.The Registrant hereby undertakes to include either (1) as part of any
application to purchase a contract offered by the prospectus, a space that an
applicant can check to request a Statement of Additional Information, or (2) a
postcard or similar written communication affixed to or included in the
prospectus that the applicant can remove to send for a Statement of Additional
Information.
3.The Registrant hereby undertakes to deliver any Statement of Additional
Information and any financial statements required to be made available under
this Form promptly upon written or oral request.
4.The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") issued the American
Counsel of Life Insurance an industry wide no-action letter dated November 28,
1988, stating that the SEC would not recommend any enforcement action if
registered separate accounts funding tax-sheltered annuity contracts restrict
distributions to plan participants in accordance with the requirements of
Section 403(b)(11), provided certain conditions and requirements were met.
Among these conditions and requirements, any registered separate account relying
on the no-action position of the SEC must:
(1) Include appropriate disclosure regarding the redemption restrictions
imposed by Section 403(b)(11) in each registration statement, including the
prospectus, used in connection with the offer of the contract;
(2) Include appropriate disclosure regarding the redemption restrictions
imposed by Section 403 (b)(11) in any sales literature used in connection
with the offer in the contract;
(3) Instruct sales representatives who solicit participants to purchase
the contract specifically to bring the redemption restrictions imposed by
Section 403(b)(11) to the attention of the potential participants; and
(4) Obtain from each plan participant who purchases a Section 403(b)
annuity contract, prior to or at the time of such purchase, a signed
statement acknowledging the participant's understanding of (i) the
<PAGE>
restrictions on redemption imposed by Section 403(b)(11), and (ii) the
investment alternatives available under the employer's Section 403(b)
arrangement, to which the participant may elect to transfer his contract
value.
The Registrant is relying on the no-action letter. Accordingly, the
provisions of paragraphs (1) - (4) above have been complied with.

Board of Directors
Great American Reserve Insurance Company
Re: Great American Reserve Variable Annuity Account C
Registration Statement on Form N-4
Gentlemen and Madam:
I am Senior Vice President, Legal of Great American Reserve Insurance
Company (the "Company"), and in such capacity I have acted as counsel to Great
American Reserve Variable Annuity Account C (the "Registrant" or "Account") in
connection with the Registrant's Form N-4 Registration Statement filing pursuant
to the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") and the Investment Company Act of 1940
("1940 Act"). This opinion is being furnished pursuant to the Act in connection
with the Registrant's Form N-4 Registration Statement relating to the
securities issued in connection with the Account offering variable annuity
contracts (the "Registration Statement"). No fee is payable because the
Registrant files a declaration of indefinite registration pursuant to Rule 24f-2
under the 1940 Act.
I have examined copies of the Registration Statement and such other
documents as I have deemed necessary or appropriate for the giving of this
opinion. In my examination, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural
persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents
submitted to me as originals, the conformity to original documents of all
documents submitted to me as certified or photostatic copies and the
authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to any facts
material to the opinions expressed herein which were not independently
established or verified, I have relied upon oral or written statements and
representations of officers and other representatives of the Company.
Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:
1. The Account has been duly organized and is an existing separate
account pursuant to the applicable laws of the State of Texas;
2. The Account is a unit investment trust registered under the 1940 Act;
<PAGE>
3. The securities issued in connection with the Account offering variable
annuity contracts, when issued as described in the Registration
Statement will be duly authorized and upon issuance will be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
4. The portion of assets to be held in the Account equal to the reserves
and other liabilities under the individual variable annuity contracts
hereafter to be funded by the Account are not chargeable with
liabilities arising out of any other business that the Company may
conduct.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/S/ KARL W. KINDIG
