The Provident Mutual Variable Annuity Separate Account
of Provident Mutual Life Insurance Company
Notes To Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION
 
     The Provident Mutual Variable Annuity Separate Account (Separate Account)
was established on October 19, 1992 by Provident Mutual Life Insurance Company
(Provident Mutual) under the provisions of Pennsylvania law. The Separate
Account is an investment account to which net proceeds from individual flexible
premium deferred variable annuity contracts (the Contracts) are allocated until
maturity or termination of the Contracts.
 
     The Contracts are distributed through career agents, brokers and personal
producing general agents.
 
     Provident Mutual has structured the Separate Account as a unit investment
trust registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Separate Account is comprised of
twenty-three Subaccounts: the Growth, Money Market, Bond, Managed, Aggressive
Growth and International Subaccounts invest in the corresponding portfolios of
the Market Street Fund, Inc.; the Fidelity High Income, Fidelity Equity-Income
and Fidelity Growth Subaccounts invest in the corresponding portfolios of the
Variable Insurance Products Fund; the Fidelity Asset Manager, Fidelity Index 500
and Fidelity Contrafund Subaccounts invest in the corresponding portfolios of
the Variable Insurance Products Fund II; the Quest for Value Equity, Quest for
Value Small Cap and Quest for Value Managed Subaccounts invest in the
corresponding portfolios of the OCC Accumulation Trust; the Scudder Bond,
Scudder Growth and Income and Scudder International Subaccounts invest in the
corresponding portfolios of the Scudder Variable Life Investment Fund; the
Dreyfus Zero Coupon 2000, Dreyfus Growth and Income and Dreyfus Socially
Responsible Subaccounts invest in the corresponding portfolios of the Dreyfus
Variable Investment Fund; and the Federated U.S. Government Bond Fund and
Federated Utility Fund Subaccounts invest in the corresponding portfolios of the
Insurance Management Series.
 
     The Growth, Money Market, Bond, Managed, Aggressive Growth and
International Subaccounts are available to owners of a Market Street VIP
contract. All twenty-three Subaccounts are available to owners of a Market
Street VIP/2 contract.
 
     Net premiums from the Contracts are allocated to the Subaccounts in
accordance with contractowner instructions and are recorded as variable annuity
contract transactions in the statements of changes in net assets. Such amounts
are used to provide money to pay contract values under the Contracts (Note 4).
The Separate Account's assets are the property of Provident Mutual.
 
     Transfers between investment portfolios include transfers between the
Subaccounts and the Guaranteed Account (not shown), which is part of Provident
Mutual's General Account.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
     The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed
by the Separate Account in the financial statements.
 
 Investment Valuation:
 
     Investment shares are valued at the net asset values of the respective
Portfolios. Transactions are recorded on the trade date. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date.
 
 Realized Gains and Losses:
 
     Realized gains and losses on sales of investment shares are determined
using the specific identification basis for financial reporting and income tax
purposes.
 
 Federal Income Taxes:
 
     The operations of the Separate Account are included in the Federal income
tax return of Provident Mutual. Under the provisions of the Contracts, Provident
Mutual has the right to charge the Separate Account for Federal income tax
attributable to the Separate Account. No charge is currently being made against
the Separate Account for such tax.
 
 Estimates:
 
     The preparation of the accompanying financial statements required
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported values of
assets and liabilities as of June 30, 1996 and the reported amounts from
operations and contract transactions during the six months ended June 30, 1996
and the year ended December 31, 1995. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
     Certain deductions are made from the Subaccounts and/or the premiums by
Provident Mutual. The deductions may include (1) surrender charges, (2)
administration fees, (3) transfer processing fees, (4) mortality and expense
risk charges and (5) premium taxes.
 
     There are no sales expenses deducted from premiums at the time the premiums
are paid. If a contract has not been in force for six full years, upon surrender
or for certain withdrawals, a surrender charge is deducted from the proceeds.
However, subject to certain restrictions, up to 10% of the contract account
value as of the beginning of a contract year may be surrendered or withdrawn
free of surrender charges.
 
     An annual administrative fee of $30 is deducted from the contract account
value on each contract anniversary date beginning one year from the issue date
of the contract. In addition, to compensate for costs associated with
administration of the Market Street VIP/2 contracts, Provident Mutual deducts a
daily asset-based administration charge from the assets of the Separate Account
equal to an annual rate of .15%. This daily asset-based administration charge is
reported in the mortality and expense risk charges in the statements of
operations.
 
     During any given contract year, the first four transfers by Market Street
VIP contractowners and the first twelve transfers by Market Street VIP/2
contractowners of amounts in the Subaccounts are free of charge. A fee of $25 is
assessed for each additional transfer. No transfer fees were incurred during the
six months ended June 30, 1996 or the year ended December 31, 1995.
 
     The Separate Account is charged a daily mortality and expense risk charge
at an annual rate of 1.20% for the Market Street VIP contracts and 1.25% for the
Market Street VIP/2 contracts. Provident Mutual reserves the right to increase
this charge for the Market Street VIP contracts, but in no event will it be
greater than 1.25%.
 
     State premium taxes, when applicable, will be deducted depending upon when
such taxes are paid to the taxing authority. The premium taxes are deducted
either from premiums as they are received or from the proceeds upon withdrawal
from or surrender of the contract or upon application of the proceeds to a
payment option.

    The table below shows the net rates of return for the Subaccounts. The net
rate of return is applicable to net assets for a variable annuity contract whose
contract year commences with the beginning date of the year shown and is not
based on the average net assets in the Subaccounts during the year.
 
    The performance for each Subaccount is shown as the net rate of return which
reflects the Subaccounts' investment income and capital gains and losses,
realized or unrealized, less charges against the Subaccounts' assets for the
period shown.
