Policyholders
GE Life & Annuity Separate Account III
 and
The Board of Directors
GE Life and Annuity Assurance Company:

   We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of GE
Life & Annuity Separate Account III (the Account) (comprising the GE
Investments Funds, Inc.--S&P 500 Index, Money Market, Total Return,
International Equity, Real Estate Securities, Global Income, Value Equity,
Income, U.S. Equity, and Premier Growth Equity Funds; the Oppenheimer Variable
Account Funds--Bond/VA, Aggressive Growth/VA, Capital Appreciation/VA, High
Income/VA and Multiple Strategies/VA Funds; the Variable Insurance Products
Fund--Equity-Income, Growth and Overseas Portfolios; the Variable Insurance
Products Fund II--Asset Manager and Contrafund Portfolios; the Variable
Insurance Products Fund III--Growth & Income and Growth Opportunities
Portfolios; the Federated Insurance Series--American Leaders, High Income Bond
and Utility Funds II; the Alger American Fund--Small Capitalization and Growth
Portfolios; the PBHG Insurance Series Fund, Inc.--PBHG Large Cap Growth and
PBHG Growth II Portfolios; the Janus Aspen Series--Aggressive Growth, Growth,
Worldwide Growth, Balanced, Flexible Income, International Growth and Capital
Appreciation Portfolios; the Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust--Growth
and Income, and Mid Cap Value Funds; and the Salomon Brothers Variable Series
Fund Inc.--Strategic Bond and Total Return Funds) as of December 31, 1999 and
the related statements of operations and changes in net assets for the
aforementioned funds and the GE Investments Funds, Inc.--Government Securities
Fund; the Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds--Money Fund; the Variable
Insurance Products Fund--Money Market and High Income Portfolios; and the
Neuberger & Berman Advisers Management Trust--Balanced, Bond and Growth
Portfolios, for each of the years or lesser periods in the three-year period
then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Account's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our
procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1999,
by correspondence with the underlying mutual funds or their transfer agent. 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 each of the respective
portfolios constituting GE Life & Annuity Separate Account III as of December
31, 1999 and the results of their operations and changes in their net assets
for each of the years or lesser periods in the three-year period then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

(1)Description of Entity

   GE Life & Annuity Separate Account III, formerly Life of Virginia Separate
Account III, (the Account) is a separate investment account established in
1986 by GE Life and Annuity Assurance Company (GE Life & Annuity), formerly
The Life Insurance Company of Virginia, under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Virginia. The Account operates as a unit investment trust under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. The Account is used to fund certain benefits for variable
life insurance policies issued by GE Life & Annuity. GE Life & Annuity is a
stock life insurance company operating under a charter granted by the
Commonwealth of Virginia on March 21, 1871. A majority of the capital stock of
GE Life & Annuity is owned by General Electric Capital Assurance Company.
General Electric Capital Assurance Company and its parent, GE Financial
Assurance Holdings, Inc., are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of General
Electric Capital Corporation (GE Capital). GE Capital, a diversified financial
services company, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Electric Company
(GE), a New York corporation.

   In June 1999, a new investment subdivision was added to the Account. The
Premier Growth Equity Fund, which invests solely in a designated portfolio of
the GE Investment Funds, Inc., was added to the Account. The fund is a series
type mutual fund. Between 1997 and 1999, the Oppenheimer Variable Account
Capital Appreciation Fund changed its name to the Oppenheimer Variable Account
Aggressive Growth Fund/VA and the Oppenheimer Variable Account Growth Fund
changed its name to the Oppenheimer Variable Account Capital Appreciation
Fund/VA.

   In October 1998, three new investment subdivisions were added to the
Account. The Investors Fund, Strategic Bond Fund, and the Total Return Fund
each invest solely in a designated portfolio of the Salomon Brothers Variable
Series Fund. All designated portfolios described above are series type mutual
funds. There were no amounts issued in the Investors Fund during 1998 or 1999.

   In May 1998, three new investment subdivisions were added to the Account.
The U.S. Equity Fund invests solely in a designated portfolio of the GE
Investments Funds, Inc. The Growth and Income, and Mid Cap Value (formerly Mid
Cap Equity) Funds each invest solely in a designated portfolio of the Goldman

                    GE LIFE & ANNUITY SEPARATE ACCOUNT III

                  Notes to Financial Statements -- Continued

                               December 31, 1999




 (c) Federal Income Taxes

   The Account is not taxed separately because the operations of the Account
are part of the total operations of GE Life & Annuity. GE Life & Annuity is
taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code (the Code).
GE Life & Annuity is included in the General Electric Capital Assurance
Company consolidated federal income tax return. Under existing federal income
tax law, no taxes are payable on the investment income or on the capital gains
of the Account.

 (d) Use of Estimates

   Financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect amounts and disclosures reported therein. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

(3) Related Party Transactions

   The premiums transferred from GE Life & Annuity to the Account represent
gross premiums recorded by GE Life & Annuity on its variable life insurance
policies. During the first ten years following a premium payment, a charge is
deducted monthly at an effective annual rate of .50% of the premium payment
from the policy cash value to cover distribution expenses and premiums taxes.
If a policy is surrendered or lapses during the first nine years, a charge is
made by GE Life & Annuity to cover the expenses of issuing the policy. Subject
to certain limitations, the charge generally equals 6% of the premium
withdrawn in the first four years, and this charge decreases 1% per year for
every year thereafter. A charge equal to the lesser of $25 or 2% of the amount
paid on a partial surrender will be made to compensate GE Life & Annuity for
the costs incurred in connection with the partial surrender.

   A charge based on the policy specified amount of insurance, death benefit
option, cash values, duration, the insured's sex, issue age and risk class is
deducted from the policy cash values each month to GE Life & Annuity for the
cost of insurance. In addition, GE Life & Annuity charges the Account for the
mortality and expense (M&E) risk that GE Life & Annuity assumes. This M&E
charge is deducted daily and equals the effective annual rate of .90% of the
net assets of the Account. GE Life & Annuity also charges the Account for
certain administrative charges which are deducted daily at the effective
annual rate of .40% of the net assets of the Account.

   GE Investments Funds, Inc. (the Fund) is an open-end diversified management
investment company.

Exchange Act of 1934 as a broker-dealer and is a member of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Capital Brokerage Corporation serves
as principal underwriter for variable life insurance policies and variable
annuities issued by GE Life & Annuity.

   GE Investment Management Incorporated (Investment Advisor), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of GE, currently serves as investment advisor to GE Investments
Funds, Inc. As compensation for its services, the Investment Advisor is paid
an investment advisory fee by the Fund based on the average daily net assets
at an effective annual rate of .35% for the S&P 500 Index Fund, .50% for the
Money Market, Income, and Total Return Funds, 1.00% for the International
Equity Fund, .85% for the Real Estate Securities Fund, .60% for the Global
Income Fund, .55% for the U.S. Equity Fund and .65% for the Value Equity and
Premier Growth Equity Funds. Prior to May 1, 1997, Aon Advisors, Inc. served

arrangement as GE Investment Management Incorporated.

   Certain officers and directors of GE Life & Annuity are also officers and
directors of Capital Brokerage Corporation.
