Report of Independent Auditors

The Contract Owners of T. Rowe Price Variable Annuity and 
The Board of Directors of Security Benefit Life Insurance Company

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of T. Rowe Price Variable
Annuity (the Company) as of December 31, 1995, and the related statement of
operations and changes in net assets for the period from May 1, 1995
(inception) to December 31, 1995.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

      We conducted our audit 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 investments owned as of December 31, 1995,
by correspondence with the custodian. 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 audit provides 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 T. Rowe Price
Variable Annuity at December 31, 1995, and the results of its operations and
changes in its net assets for the period from May 1, 1995 (inception) to
December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 1995

1  Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

T. Rowe Price Variable Annuity (the Account) is a separate account of Security
Benefit Life Insurance Company (SBL). The Account is registered as a unit
investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. All
deposits received by the Account have been invested in one of the portfolios
of either T. Rowe Price Equity Series, Inc., T. Rowe Price Fixed Income
Series, Inc., or T. Rowe Price International Series, Inc., mutual funds not
otherwise available to the public. As directed by the owners, amounts
deposited are invested in shares of New America Growth Portfolio - emphasis on
long-term capital growth through investments in common stocks of domestic
companies, International Stock Portfolio - emphasis on long-term capital
growth through investments in common stocks of established foreign companies,
Equity Income Portfolio - emphasis on substantial dividend income and capital
appreciation by investing primarily in dividend-paying common stocks, Personal
Strategy Balanced Portfolio - emphasis on both capital appreciation and
income, and Limited-Term Bond Portfolio - emphasis on income with moderate
price fluctuation by investing in short- and intermediate-term securities.

      Under the terms of the investment advisory contracts, portfolio
investments are made by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., for each portfolio
except those of the T. Rowe Price International Stock Portfolio, which is
advised by Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc., an affiliate of T. Rowe
Price Associates, Inc.

Investment Valuation

Investments in mutual fund shares are carried in the balance sheet at market
value (net asset value of the underlying mutual fund). The first-in, first-out
cost method is used to determine gains and losses. Security transactions are
accounted for on the trade date.

      The cost of investments purchased and proceeds from investments sold
during the period from May 1, 1995 (inception), to December 31, 1995, were as
follows:

                                          Cost of     Proceeds
                                         Purchases    From Sales
                                         ________     _________
                                               (In Thousands)

New America 
   Growth Portfolio                       $4,685         $439
International Stock 
   Portfolio                               2,698          323
Equity Income Portfolio                    4,967          662
Personal Strategy 
   Balanced Portfolio                      1,952          235
Limited-Term 
   Bond Portfolio                          1,237          321

Annuity Reserves

As of December 31, 1995, annuity reserves have not been established because
there are no contracts which have matured and are in the payout stage. Such
reserves would be computed on the basis of published mortality tables using
assumed interest rates that will provide reserves as prescribed by law. In
cases where the payout option selected is life contingent, SBL periodically
recalculates the required annuity reserves, and any resulting adjustment is
either charged or credited to SBL and not to the Account.

Reinvestment of Dividends

Dividend and capital gain distributions paid by the mutual fund to the Account
are reinvested in additional shares of each respective portfolio. Dividend
income and capital gain distributions are recorded as income on the
ex-dividend date.

Federal Income Taxes

Under current law, no federal income taxes are payable with respect to the
Account.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.  Variable Annuity Contract Charges

Mortality and expense risks assumed by SBL are compensated for by a fee
equivalent to an annual rate of .55% of the average daily net assets of each
account.

      When applicable, an amount for state premium taxes is deducted as
provided by pertinent state law, either from the purchase payments or from the
amount applied to effect an annuity at the time annuity payments commence.

3.  Summary of Unit Transactions

Unit transactions during the period from May 1, 1995 (inception) to December
