JOHN O. GILBERT (LEFT) WITH STEVEN A. WEBER

1998 was a volatile year for investors in products tied to domestic financial
markets. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (Dow) reached a then new high at 9,337
in July and then dropped almost 1,000 points in a four-day span at the end of
August. Experts believe this kind of volatility was created by investor concern.
The economic situation in other parts of the world caused investor uncertainty
in U.S. financial markets and investors began to take their money out of
investments perceived as risky.

Despite the stock market volatility, the Dow ended the year up 16 percent at
9,181 and the Standard & Poor's(R) 500 Composite Stock Price Index finished up
26 percent for the year. This is the first time in history that the Dow posted
double-digit percentage gains four years in a row. Many experts

<PAGE>
 
                      AAL VARIABLE PRODUCTS ANNUAL REPORT

believe this was helped by the Federal Reserve Board lowering interest rates
three separate times near year-end.

In times of volatile markets, it is important to take a long-term, diversified
approach to investing. Even though the AAL Variable Annuity and Variable
Universal Life are primarily insurance products, if you are uncomfortable with
the volatility of the past year, you may want to rethink your mix of investment
options within these products.

We at AAL would like to thank you for your continued loyalty and confidence. We
look forward to serving you and encourage you to take advantage of all the
financial services offered to Lutherans and their families by AAL and its
affiliates. If you have questions regarding your variable annuity or variable
universal life certificates, please contact your local AAL representative or
call 800-225-5225 between 7a.m. and 8p.m. Central Time, Mon. through Fri., and
from 9a.m. to 1p.m. Central Time on Sat., to speak with an AAL variable products
service center representative.

Best regards,


/s/ John Gilbert                          /s/ Steven A. Weber

MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO

HOW DID THE PORTFOLIO PERFORM DURING 1998?

The return on the Portfolio for 1998 was 5.31%. The 7-day yield, which more
closely reflects the current earnings, was 4.99% at year-end. Money market
returns were stable for most of the year. The federal funds rate was cut from
5.50% in September to 4.75% by Nov. 17, in a series of three decreases. The
federal funds rate is the most sensitive indicator of the direction of interest
rates, since it is set daily by banks which may lend federal funds to each other
on an overnight basis. These actions on the part of the Federal Reserve Board
(the Fed) caused rates available on short-term investments to decline by a
similar amount.

HOW HAVE THE FED'S INTEREST RATE CUTS AFFECTED THE RETURNS AVAILABLE TO THE
PORTFOLIO?

[PICTURE APPEARS HERE]

As a result of the rate cuts, interest rates available on short-term investments
are approximately 0.75% lower than they were before the reductions. If Federal
Reserve policy remains constant throughout 1999, returns on the Portfolio are
likely to reflect the impact of the rate decreases, which occurred in the fourth
quarter of 1998.

           PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT AN INDICATION OF FUTURE RESULTS.

/1/ TOTAL RETURNS - Total returns and unit values are subject to fluctuation.
    Accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their
    original value. Periods less than one year are not annualized. Actual
    returns experienced by the contract owner, as reflected in the cash value of
    the certificate, will be significantly less than those shown for the
    Portfolios, because the owner's values are reduced by mortality and risk
    expenses, and other charges and expenses related to the certificate's
    insurance coverage.

/2/ FUND PORTFOLIO - Average annual total returns reflect reinvestment of all
    dividends and capital gains distributions but do not reflect separate
    account expenses or charges. However, these values reflect the deduction of
    a 0.35% maximum annual management fee, but do not reflect Portfolio expenses
    which are voluntarily paid by AAL or reimbursed by AAL. Without the payment
    and reimbursement of expenses by AAL, which can be changed on a 30-days'
    notice, these total returns would have been lower.

/3/ VARIABLE SUBACCOUNTS - Annuity returns reflect the deduction of the 1.25%
    mortality and expense risk fee, but do not reflect the $25 annual
    maintenance charge (for accounts of less than $5,000) or surrender charges.
    Life returns do not reflect charges assessed to individual certificate
    owners.

/4/ SEC VARIABLE ANNUITY SUBACCOUNT - Reflects all fees and expenses and the
    maximum surrender charge of 7% for the first contract year, declining by 1%
    each year through the seventh.

Please refer to the hypothetical illustrations in the account prospectus which
show the effect on performance of various assumptions regarding the cost for
insurance protection. You may also obtain a personalized illustration of
historical performance which reflects the costs of your certificate's insurance
protection.

DO YOU FORESEE ANY CHANGES IN THE ECONOMY THAT MAY RESULT IN THE FED RAISING
INTEREST RATES IN THE NEAR TERM?

The primary impetus that would cause the Fed to raise interest rates would be in
anticipation of higher rates of inflation. This could occur from labor shortages
and a resultant increase in costs to attract skilled workers. Another factor
leading to higher inflation would be an overheating of the economy, caused by
increased consumer spending levels. While we do not expect either of these
outcomes at the current time, we are constantly monitoring economic events to
take advantage of changes in the environment.

BOND PORTFOLIO.

HOW DID THE PORTFOLIO PERFORM RELATIVE TO THE U.S. BOND MARKET DURING 1998, AND
WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED PERFORMANCE?

The Portfolio performed well during 1998 relative to the bond market in general.
The bond market experienced a dramatic increase in interest rate risk premium
for corporate securities around mid-year. Corporate bond buyers demanded a
higher spread over Treasury securities than they had in the first half of 1998
to justify purchases of lower quality corporate bonds. The investing public
accepted this dramatic rise in U.S. credit spreads as the consequence of
emerging market events and the liquidity problems that ensued. On December 31,
1998, all of the Portfolio's securities were of investment-grade, and 78% was
rated AAA, the highest rating achievable. The high quality helped the Portfolio
avoid most of the adverse spread widening.

WHICH AREA OF THE INVESTMENT-GRADE BOND MARKET (E.G., U.S. TREASURY, CORPORATE,
MORTGAGE-BACKED AND ASSET-BACKED) PROVIDED THE MOST ATTRACTIVE RETURNS FOR
INVESTORS DURING 1998? TO WHAT DEGREE DID THE PORTFOLIO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THESE
OPPORTUNITIES?

[PICTURE APPEARS HERE]

The longest-term U.S. Treasury bonds provided the highest total returns for the
year, coming in at 14.2%. Long-term government agency and the highest quality
corporate securities were not far behind. The Portfolio had approximately 38% in
U.S. Treasurys and 9% in government agency securities. With maturities ranging
from one to 30 years, the Portfolio captured a good portion of the best
performing sectors of the bond market during 1998.

            PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT AN INDICATION OF FUTURE RESULTS.

/1/ TOTAL RETURNS - Total returns and unit values are subject to fluctuation.
    Accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their
    original value. Periods less than one year are not annualized. Actual
    returns experienced by the contract owner, as reflected in the cash value of
    the certificate, will be significantly less than those shown for the
    Portfolios, because the owner's values are reduced by mortality and risk
    expenses, and other charges and expenses related to the certificate's
    insurance coverage.

/2/ FUND PORTFOLIO - Average annual total returns reflect reinvestment of all
    dividends and capital gains distributions but do not reflect separate
    account expenses or charges. However, these values reflect the deduction of
    a 0.35% maximum annual management fee, but do not reflect Portfolio expenses
    which are voluntarily paid by AAL or reimbursed by AAL. Without the payment
    and reimbursement of expenses by AAL, which can be changed on a 30-days'
    notice, these total returns would have been lower.

/3/ VARIABLE SUBACCOUNTS - Annuity returns reflect the deduction of the 1.25%
    mortality and expense risk fee, but do not reflect the $25 annual
    maintenance charge (for accounts of less than $5,000) or surrender charges.
    Life returns do not reflect charges assessed to individual certificate
    owners.

/4/ SEC VARIABLE ANNUITY SUBACCOUNT - Reflects all fees and expenses and the
    maximum surrender charge of 7% for the first contract year, declining by 1%
    each year through the seventh.

HOW WAS THE PERFORMANCE OF THE U.S. BOND MARKET AFFECTED IN 1998 BY THE
FINANCIAL TURMOIL EXPERIENCED BY RUSSIA, BRAZIL AND ASIA?

Financial problems in these areas of the world have had a deflationary impact on
U.S. markets. The global liquidity crisis triggered by the Russian debt default
debacle resulted in the Federal Reserve Board taking action by lowering
short-term interest rates to preempt a possible global recession. Devaluation of
the Brazilian currency and excess manufacturing capacity in Asia resulted in a
flood of inexpensive imports into the U.S., which helped keep inflation low and
allowed Treasury interest rates to decline during the second half of 1998.

HOW DID THE U.S. STOCK AND BOND MARKETS PERFORM DURING 1998?

The U.S. equity market performed exceptionally well in 1998 for owners of large
capitalization stocks, but proved to be a difficult year for owners of small
company stocks. The S&P 500 Index* advanced 28.6% in 1998, while the S&P
SmallCap 600 Index** declined 1.3%. The advance in the S&P 500 in 1998 followed
exceptional returns in the previous three years (33.4% in 1997, 23.0% in 1996
and 37.6% in 1995). The compound annual return of the S&P 500 Index has been
30.4% over the last four years. We do not expect returns from the S&P 500 to be
of nearly the same magnitude over the next several years, but to revert to more
normal returns that have historically averaged about 10% per year. Although
returns from the bond market were dwarfed by comparison to the S&P 500 in 1998,
the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index*** did deliver an 8.7% return. Interest
rates declined by more than 1% for most

IS ANY CONSIDERATION BEING GIVEN TO INCREASE THE PORTFOLIO'S STOCK WEIGHTING TO
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CONTINUED STRONG PERFORMANCE BY STOCKS?

We regularly assess valuation levels of the market and develop a forecast of our
return expectations for the S&P 500 (stocks), the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond
Index (bonds) and commercial paper (cash). Because of the high valuation levels
of the S&P 500, we currently maintain a neutral weighting in stocks (55%), and
will look to underweight stocks relative to bonds and cash if the S&P 500 stock
index begins to decline and shows continued weakness.

 Large cap stocks lead the way in 1998, significantly outperforming smaller
 capitalization stocks. Even within the S&P 500 Index*, the larger the
 capitalization, the better the performance of the stock. The top capitalization
 quintile, which is comprised of the 100 largest stocks in the S&P 500 Index,
 had a return of 36.4% vs. a 5.6% return for the other 400 stocks in the Index
 and a 28.6% return for the Index as a whole. The factors that led to this
 performance included reasonably robust profit improvement for many of these
 larger companies due to their position as market leaders in their respective
 industries, and their ability to grow earnings through cost reduction due to
 the large size of their operations. Also, many of the industries of these large
 companies were among the most successful during the year, including computer
 hardware, computer software, pharmaceuticals, electronics, retailing,
 telecommunications services, equipment and autos.

           PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT AN INDICATION OF FUTURE RESULTS.

/1/ TOTAL RETURNS -- Total returns and unit values are subject to fluctuation.
    Accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their
    original value. Periods less than one year are not annualized. Actual
    returns experienced by the contract owner, as reflected in the cash value of
    the certificate, will be significantly less than those shown for the
    Portfolios, because the owner's values are reduced by mortality and risk
    expenses, and other charges and expenses related to the certificate's
    insurance coverage.

/2/ FUND PORTFOLIO -- Average annual total returns reflect reinvestment of all
    dividends and capital gains distributions but do not reflect separate
    account expenses or charges. However, these values reflect the deduction of
    a 0.35% maximum annual management fee, but do not reflect Portfolio expenses
    which are voluntarily paid by AAL or reimbursed by AAL. Without the payment
    and reimbursement of expenses by AAL, which can be changed on a 30-days'
    notice, these total returns would have been lower.

/3/ VARIABLE SUBACCOUNTS -- Annuity returns reflect the deduction of the 1.25%
    mortality and expense risk fee, but do not reflect the $25 annual
    maintenance charge (for accounts of less than $5,000) or surrender charges.
    Life returns do not reflect charges assessed to individual certificate
    owners.

/4/ SEC VARIABLE ANNUITY SUBACCOUNT -- Reflects all fees and expenses and the
    maximum surrender charge of 7% for the first contract year, declining by 1%
    each year through the seventh.

Please refer to the hypothetical illustrations in the account prospectus which
show the effect on performance of various assumptions regarding the cost for
insurance protection. You may also obtain a personalized illustration of
historical performance which reflects the costs of your certificate's insurance
protection.

WHY HAVE LARGE-CAP STOCKS CONTINUED TO OUTPERFORM SMALL-AND MID-CAP STOCKS?

Several reasons could be given for large-cap stock outperformance: the robust
profits generated by the various industries cited previously, the degree of
confidence that investors placed on the sustainability of this profit growth,
and the large capital inflows experienced in this sector of the equity markets.
Although profit growth wasn't absent from the profile of many smaller companies,
even those whose profit trends were above average may have suffered from a lack
of investor confidence in the sustainability of this growth.

DO YOU FEEL THE S&P 500 INDEX CAN CONTINUE TO PRODUCE DOUBLE-DIGIT RETURNS IN
THE YEAR AHEAD, GIVEN THE CURRENT ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT?

I would not expect the S&P 500 Index to produce double-digit returns this year
due to a variety of reasons: the current valuation of the stock market, trends
in corporate profitability and the outlook for interest rates. The valuation of
the stock market is at all-time highs with the price-earnings (P/E) ratio of the
S&P 500 Index at 28 times expected 1999 earnings, about twice the historical
average. This level makes it hard to expect further expansion of the P/E
multiple. One factor that affects the multiple of the stock market is the
profitability of companies in the market. Using return on equity (ROE) as a
measure of profitability, it appears that the aggregate ROE has peaked in the
past 12 to 18 months and is starting to decline, suggesting that the market's
P/E multiple is likely to peak and possibly decline. Finally, declining interest
rates also enable the market multiple to rise. It is possible that the decline
in interest rates experienced over the past decade may start to flatten if the
economy remains reasonably strong. The Federal Reserve will be less likely to
lower interest rates further in a strong economy.

The S&P SmallCap 600 Index* was down 1.3% in 1998. This compared to a 28.6%
return for the S&P 500 Index**. Two major factors, liquidity and predictable
earnings growth, contributed to this performance discrepancy. The Federal
Reserve reduced interest rates which expanded the amount of liquidity in the
economy and benefited U.S. financial assets (stocks and bonds) as a result. As
stock valuations continued to increase, investors used this liquidity to buy
stocks of the safest and largest U.S. companies, driving valuations for
large-cap stocks even higher. The second half of 1998 also saw profit growth
decline for many U.S. companies. In a period of slowing profits, investors pay a
premium for those companies with highly visible future profits. The majority of
companies with this characteristic are large-cap stocks. The combination of the
above factors caused small-cap stocks to significantly underperform large-cap
stocks in 1998.

    maintenance charge (for accounts of less than $5,000) or surrender charges.
    Life returns do not reflect charges assessed to individual certificate
    owners.

/4/ SEC VARIABLE ANNUITY SUBACCOUNT -- Reflects all fees and expenses and the
    maximum surrender charge of 7% for the first contract year, declining by 1%
    each year through the seventh.

Prior March 1, 1998, the Portfolio's objective was to approximate the 
performance of the Wilshire Small Cap Index. The change to the S&P Small Cap 600
Index was made because it reflects more current market data and information is 
available on a daily basis.

WHICH SMALL-CAP INDUSTRY SECTORS SHOWED THE GREATEST STRENGTH DURING 1998? WHICH
SECTORS WERE THE WEAKEST?

The following table lists the best performing and worst performing sectors for
the S&P SmallCap 600 Index and their corresponding returns for 1998.

- ----------------------------------------------------------------
 Best Performing      Returns      Worst Performing     Returns
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
Consumer Durables      10.9%            Energy          -43.4%

 Transportation         4.6%            Finance          -0.1%
- ----------------------------------------------------------------

WHY HAVE SMALL-CAP STOCKS CONTINUED TO UNDERPERFORM MID- AND LARGE-CAP STOCKS?
DO YOU SEE THIS CONTINUING?

While no one has a crystal ball and the aforementioned factors remain, a
compelling argument can be made for small-cap stocks. First, the
underperformance of small-cap stocks has created a valuation gap with large-cap
stocks that has not been seen for the last 20 years. Second, small-cap stocks
offer better earnings growth than large-cap stocks. Finally, small-cap stocks
have seen a higher percentage of insider buying than large-cap stocks during
December. These factors suggest that small-cap stocks offer attractive
valuations with solid appreciation potential.


HAS STANDARD & POOR'S MADE ANY COMPANY CHANGES TO THE S&P SMALLCAP 600 INDEX
SINCE THE PORTFOLIO BEGAN USING THIS INDEX AS ITS BENCHMARK IN MARCH 1998?

Standard & Poor's adds and deletes companies in their indexes throughout the
year. Changes are typically made when a company has become too large or too
small for its current index or the company has been acquired through a merger or
acquisition. There were 88 company changes in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index in
1998. After February 1998, there were 71 company changes to the index. Most of
these changes were the result of mergers.

     INTERNATIONAL STOCK PORTFOLIO

     HOW HAS THE PORTFOLIO PERFORMED SINCE ITS INTRODUCTION ON MARCH 2, 1998,
     AND WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED PERFORMANCE?

     Since its inception, the Portfolio returned 11.09%, vs. the MSCI EAFE
     Index* return of 7.83%. Outperformance was due to overweight positions in
     the continental European markets (most notably the Netherlands, Italy and
     Spain), good stock selection in Europe, underweight positions in Japan and
     the rest of Asia, and nominal exposure to the emerging markets.

    *The Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East
     Index is a stock index designed to measure the investment returns of the
     developed countries outside of North America. The index currently includes
     stocks from 21 countries.

     ARE THERE ANY COUNTRIES IN WHICH YOU ARE NOT CURRENTLY INVESTED THAT YOU
     FEEL ARE WORTH WATCHING FOR FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES?

     Other than some minor adjustments to current country weightings, we do not
     anticipate any significant changes to our overall country exposure at this
     point. The continuing crisis in emerging markets may provide stock-specific
     opportunities at some point over the next 12 months, as valuations may
     eventually become attractive.

     HOW DID THE PORTFOLIO REACT TO THE FINANCIAL CRISES THAT SURFACED AMONG
     SOME OF THE WORLD'S COUNTRIES DURING 1998?

     The Portfolio held its own against the benchmark in the volatile third
     quarter, returning -14.23% vs. -14.21% for the EAFE Index. This was above

           PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT AN INDICATION OF FUTURE RESULTS.

/1/  TOTAL RETURNS - Total returns and unit values are subject to fluctuation.
     Accumulation units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their
     original value. Periods less than one year are not annualized. Actual
     returns experienced by the contract owner, as reflected in the cash value
     of the certificate, will be significantly less than those shown for the
     Portfolios, because the owner's values are reduced by mortality and risk
     expenses, and other charges and expenses related to the certificate's
     insurance coverage.

/2/  FUND PORTFOLIO - Average annual total returns reflect reinvestment of all
     dividends and capital gains distributions but do not reflect separate
     account expenses or charges. However, these values reflect the deduction of
     a 0.80% maximum annual management fee, but do not reflect Portfolio
     expenses which are voluntarily paid by AAL or reimbursed by AAL. Without
     the payment and reimbursement of expenses by AAL, which can be changed on a
     30-days' notice, these total returns would have been lower.

/3/  VARIABLE SUBACCOUNTS - Annuity returns reflect the deduction of the 1.25%
     mortality and expense risk fee, but do not reflect the $25 annual
     maintenance charge (for accounts of less than $5,000) or surrender charges.
     Life returns do not reflect charges assessed to individual certificate
     owners.

(+18.03%). We believe the outlook for global equity markets looks better now
than during the height of the turmoil in late summer. Our view is that we are
through the worst. The primary challenges to this more favorable outlook
include: a failure of fiscal and monetary authorities to continue to promote
stimulative policies; a lack of effectiveness in achieving their ends; and a
worse than anticipated downturn in corporate profits. The current environment
necessitates disciplined stock selection more than ever. we are optimistic about
the prospects for achieving attractive returns.

     HIGH YIELD BOND PORTFOLIO

     HOW HAVE HIGH YIELD BONDS PERFORMED SINCE THE PORTFOLIO'S INTRODUCTION ON
     MARCH 2, 1998?

     The high yield bond market, as measured by the Merrill Lynch High Yield
     Index, had a total return of 2.6% during this time period. The market was
     fairly calm through July, but took an abrupt turn for the worse in August
     when the Russian government devalued the ruble and defaulted on its debt.
     This event caught the markets by surprise and sparked a "flight to quality"
     trade by investors. In times of great uncertainty, investors will sell so
     called "risky" assets in favor of "safe" investments. High yield bonds are
     considered one of the more risky segments within the fixed-income sector,
     as contrasted with U.S. government bonds. As a result, high yield bonds
     showed negative returns for three consecutive months before recovering in
     November. Within the high yield market, the better quality bonds
     outperformed the lower-rated sectors. The highest quality bonds, or those
     rated BB, returned 6.6% for all of 1998, while the single B sector returned
     2.8%, and the lowest rated CCC sector had a negative return of 8.1%.

HOW DID THE PORTFOLIO PERFORM DURING THIS PERIOD, AND WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED
PERFORMANCE?

The Portfolio returned a negative 2.9% during this period. The best performing
sector last year was media. This sector represents 12.5% of the Portfolio, and
consists of companies in the cable TV, radio and television broadcasting and
publishing industries. These industries are somewhat defensive because their
businesses are non-cyclical and based entirely in the United States. This sector
finished the year with a return of about 11%. On the other hand, the basic
materials sector (steel, paper and chemicals) has been most affected by weak
international economies. This sector finished the year with a slightly negative
return and currently accounts for 11.6% of the Portfolio. As 1999 unfolds, I
believe this sector presents the most interesting opportunities. The U.S.
economy remains strong and Asia is beginning to recover. I expect profitability
to improve this year for basic material companies and for their bonds to
outperform the market in 1999.

                    AAL VARIABLE PRODUCT SERIES FUND, INC.
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1998


(A) ORGANIZATION
- ----------------

The AAL Variable Product Series Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Maryland and registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-ended diversified
management company. The Fund is a 'series" fund consisting of seven separate
investment portfolios (known as the Money Market, Bond, Balanced, Large Company
Stock, Small Company Stock, International Stock and High Yield Bond Portfolios,
collectively the "Portfolios"). The International Stock Portfolio and High Yield
Bond Portfolio commenced operations March 2, 1998. Shares of the Fund are
currently sold only to the AAL Variable Annuity Account I and the AAL Variable
Life Account I (the "Variable Accounts") to fund benefits under certificates of
membership related to the flexible premium deferred variable annuity issued by
Aid Association for Lutherans ("AAL").

On February 13, 1998, the shareholders of The Small Company Stock Portfolio
changed its tracking index to the S&P SmallCap 600 Index.

(B) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- -----------------------------------
VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS  Securities traded on national securities exchanges and
NASDAQ are valued at the last reported sales price. Fixed income securities are
valued at market using quotations provided by an independent pricing service.
The Money Market Portfolio, and other Portfolios which hold money market
instruments with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less, value securities at
amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market
quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by the Investment Adviser under the supervision of the Board of
Directors.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION  The books and records of the Portfolios are
maintained in U.S. dollars. The market values of securities and other assets and
liabilities that are not traded in United States currency are recorded in the
financial statements after translation to U.S. dollars at the time net asset
value is calculated. However, for federal income tax purposes the portfolio does
treat as ordinary income the effect of changes in foreign exchange arising from
actual foreign currency transactions and the effect of changes in foreign
exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from trade date and settlement date
differences.

Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward foreign
currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S.
dollar amount actually received. That portion of both realized and unrealized
gains and losses on investments that result from fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.

FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS  In connection with purchases and sales of securities
denominated in foreign currencies, the International Stock Portfolio may enter
into forward currency contracts. Additionally, The International Stock Portfolio
may enter into such contracts to hedge certain other foreign currency
denominated investments. These contracts are recorded at market values, and the
related realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses are included
in the statement of operations. In the event that counter parties fail to settle
these forward contracts, the International Stock Portfolio could be exposed to
foreign currency fluctuations.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES  No provision for federal income taxes has been made since
the Fund has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company under the
Internal Revenue Code and intends to distribute to shareholders as dividends,
substantially all the net investment income and net realized capital gains, if
any, of the Fund. As of December 31, 1998, the Bond Portfolio has capital loss
carryforwards of $2,188 expiring in 2003; $7,782 expiring in 2004; $22,408
expiring in 2005 and $61,026 expiring in 2006. The High Yield Bond and
International Stock Portfolios have loss carryforwards of $228,897 and $468,877,
respectively, expiring in 2006. It is management's intention to make no
distribution of any future realized capital gains related to these Portfolios
until the federal income tax capital loss carryforwards are exhausted.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS  All of the Portfolios intend to distribute all
their net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, as
dividends. The Bond, Balanced, Large Company Stock, Small Company Stock and High
Yield Bond Portfolios expect to declare and pay net investment income dividends
monthly and net realized capital gains, if any, annually. The Money Market
Portfolio declares a daily dividend equal to its net investment income for that
day, payable monthly. The International Stock Portfolio expects to declare and
pay income and net realized capital gains, if any, annually. Dividends to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

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 reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

EXPENSES  The Funds are charged for those expenses that are directly attributed
to each Portfolio, such as advisory, custodian, and shareholder service fees.
Expenses that are not directly attributable to a Portfolio are typically
allocated among the Funds' Portfolios in proportion to their respective net
assets, number of shareholder accounts or other reasonable basis.

OTHER  For financial statement purposes investment transactions are accounted
for on the trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date,
and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes amortization
of premiums and discounts.
<PAGE>
 
Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are determined on a
specific cost identification basis.

(C) INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
- ------------------------------------------------------------------

The Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with AAL relating to
the management of the Portfolios and pays an investment advisory fee as
compensation for its services to the Fund. The fee is a daily charge equal to an
annual rate of 0.35% of the average daily net assets up to $250,000,000 and
0.30% of the average daily net assets in excess of that amount for the Money
Market, Bond, Balanced, Large and Small Company Stock Portfolios; 0.80% of the
average daily assets for the International Stock Portfolio; and 0.40% of the
average daily assets for the High Yield Bond Portfolio.

The Fund has also entered into an Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement with AAL
Capital Management Corporation "CMC"), an affiliate of AAL, for the High Yield
Bond Portfolio. The sub-advisory fee, which is paid by AAL, is equal to an
annual fee of .25% of average daily net assets. Additionally, AAL has entered
into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with Oechsle International Advisors, LLC. (Sub-
Adviser) for the International Stock Portfolio. The sub-advisory fee, which is
paid by AAL, is equal to an annual fee of 0.54% of assets under management for
the first $20 million, 0.45% of assets under management for the next $30 million
and 0.36% for assets under management over $50 million. In addition, AAL has
agreed to either pay on behalf of the Fund or reimburse the Fund for
substantially all of its operating expenses, other than the aforementioned
investment advisory fees, brokerage commissions, and certain extraordinary items
such as litigation expenses or income tax liabilities. AAL may withdraw this
reimbursement agreement on 30 days written notice to the Fund.

The Investment Advisory Agreement anticipates that AAL will provide certain
administrative and accounting services to the Fund, or that AAL will arrange for
such services to be provided by a third party. AAL has entered into an
Administrative Services Agreement with CMC, pursuant to which CMC agrees to
provide these administrative and accounting services on behalf of the Fund. Fees
which CMC is entitled to receive for providing such services under the terms of
the Administrative Services Agreement are paid by AAL out of the advisory fees
it receives from the Fund, and therefore do not result in any additional expense
to the Fund. This agreement terminated on December 31, 1998.

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers of AAL and CMC. For
the year ended December 31, 1998, directors of the Fund not affiliated with AAL
or CMC received director fees in the aggregate amount of $20,000. No
remuneration has been paid by the Fund to officers or directors affiliated with
AAL or CMC. At December 31, 1998, all of the shares of each Portfolio are owned
by AAL and The AAL Variable Accounts.

(D) LINE OF CREDIT
- ------------------

The Fund has an available line of credit of $5,000,000 and a standby line of
credit of $15,000,000. However, each Portfolio's borrowings, by investment
restriction, cannot exceed 10% of the total net assets and must be only from a
bank as a temporary measure for extraordinary or emergency purposes. The Fund
pays a facility fee related to the line of credit of 0.05% per annum of the
average amount of available line of credit, such fee to be paid quarterly in
arrears on the last day of each and every March, June, September and December.
Borrowings under this agreement bear interest prior to maturity either at a
floating rate per annum, which approximates the then current prime commercial
rate with changes in the interest rate by virtue of a change in such prime
commercial rate, or, at the Fund's request, if the bank so agrees, at a short-
term fixed rate of interest.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


The Board of Directors and Shareholders
The AAL Variable Product Series Fund, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of The
AAL Variable Product Series Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") (comprised of the Money
Market Portfolio, Bond Portfolio, Balanced Portfolio, Large Company Stock
Portfolio, Small Company Stock Portfolio, International Stock Portfolio and High
Yield Bond Portfolio), including the schedules of investments, as of December
31, 1998, and the related statements of operations, statements of changes in net
assets and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein.
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of
the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights 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 and the financial
highlights are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of December 31, 1998, by correspondence with the custodian.
As to securities relating to uncompleted transactions, we performed other audit
procedures.  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 and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each
of the respective portfolios comprising The AAL Variable Product Series Fund,
Inc. as of December 31, 1998, and the results of its operations, the changes in
its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated
therein, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                       AAL VARIABLE ANNUITY ACCOUNT I   
                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
                        AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1998        


NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- --------------------------------------------------
The AAL Variable Annuity Account I (the Account) is a unit investment trust
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Account was established
as a separate investment account within Aid Association for Lutherans (AAL) to
fund flexible premium deferred variable annuity insurance certificates.

The Account had five separate subaccounts at December 31, 1997 and seven
separate subaccounts at December 31, 1998, each of which invests solely, as
directed by certificate owners, in a different portfolio of AAL Variable Product
Series Fund, Inc. (the Fund), an open-end, diversified management investment
company sponsored by AAL. Certificate owners also may direct investments to a
guaranteed interest subaccount held in the general account of AAL.

Investments in shares of the Fund are stated at market value, which is the
closing net asset value per share as determined by the Fund. The first-in,
first-out basis has been used in determining the net realized gain or loss from
investment transactions and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of
investments. Dividends and capital gain distributions paid to the Account are
automatically reinvested in shares of the Fund on the payment date.

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.

NOTE 2. EXPENSE CHARGES
- -----------------------
The Account pays AAL certain amounts relating to the distribution and
administration of the certificates funded by the Account and as reimbursement
for certain mortality and other risks assumed by AAL. The following summarizes
those amounts.

Mortality and expense risks assumed by AAL are compensated for by a charge
equivalent to an annual rate of approximately 1.25% of the average daily net
asset value of the Account. A certificate maintenance charge of $25 per
certificate year is deducted to reimburse AAL for administrative expenses
related to the contract. This fee is waived if the sum of premiums received by
AAL less the sum of any withdrawals and withdrawal charges from the certificate
is $5,000 or more at the time the deduction would be made. In addition, a
surrender charge is imposed in the event of a full or partial surrender in
excess of 10% of the accumulated value during the first seven contract years.
The amount charged is 7% of the amount surrendered during the first contract
year and declines by 1% in each of the next six contract years. The certificate
owner may make two transfers from one or more subaccounts to other subaccounts
or the fixed account in each certificate year, but thereafter, each transfer is
subject to a $10 transfer charge.

NOTE 3. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
- ----------------------------
The operations of the Account form a part of the operations of AAL. AAL, a
fraternal benefit society, qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under the
Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no federal income taxes are payable
with respect to the Account's net investment income and net realized gains on
investments. Accordingly, no charge for income taxes is currently being made to
the Account. If such taxes are incurred by AAL in the future, a charge to the
Account may be assessed.

NOTE 4. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
- -------------------------------
The aggregate cost of investment securities purchased and proceeds from
investment securities sold by subaccount are as follows:

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
                            AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1998

The Board of Directors and Certificate Owners
Aid Association for Lutherans


We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of the AAL Variable
Annuity Account I (comprising, respectively, the Money Market, Bond, Balanced,
Large Company Stock, Small Company Stock, International Stock, and High Yield
Bond Subaccounts) as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of
operations for the year then ended and changes in net assets for each of the two
years in the 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, 1998, by correspondence with
the 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
subaccounts constituting the AAL Variable Annuity Account I at December 31,
1998, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, and changes
in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                      AAL VARIABLE PRODUCTS ANNUAL REPORT
 
                          AAL VARIABLE LIFE ACCOUNT I
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1998

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- --------------------------------------------------
The AAL Variable Life Account I (the Account) is a unit investment trust
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Account was established
as a separate investment account within Aid Association for Lutherans (AAL) to
fund flexible premium variable universal life insurance certificates. The
Account commenced operations on May 15, 1998.

The Account has seven separate subaccounts, each of which invests solely, as
directed by certificate owners, in a different portfolio of AAL Variable Product
Series Fund, Inc. (the Fund), an open-end, diversified management investment
company sponsored by AAL. Certificate owners also may direct investments to a
guaranteed interest subaccount held in the general account of AAL.

Investments in shares of the Fund are stated at market value, which is the
closing net asset value per share as determined by the Fund. The first-in,
first-out basis has been used in determining the net realized gain or loss from
investment transactions and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of
investments. Dividends and capital gain distributions paid to the Account are
automatically reinvested in shares of the Fund on the payment date.

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.


NOTE 2. EXPENSE CHARGES
- -----------------------
The Account pays AAL certain amounts relating to the distribution and
administration of the certificates funded by the Account and as reimbursement
for certain mortality and other risks assumed by AAL. The following summarizes
those amounts.

Mortality and expense risks assumed by AAL are compensated for by a charge
equivalent to an annual rate of approximately 0.75% of the total subaccount cash
value during the first 15 years dropping to approximately 0.25% thereafter. A
per policy monthly administration charge of $4 and a cost of insurance charge,
which varies by risk class, sex, amount at risk, and age, is deducted as
compensation for administrative and insurance expenses, respectively. A sales
charge of 3.0% is deducted from each participant payment to cover sales and
other expenses and to provide support for AAL's fraternal activities. In
addition, a surrender charge is imposed in the event the certificate is
surrendered or the specified amount is reduced. The initial surrender charge is
based on an amount per thousand of specified coverage for which the certificate
is issued. The amount per thousand varies by risk class, sex, and issue age. The
cash value is reduced by the surrender charge. The charge decreases over the
first 10 certificate years to zero in the 11th certificate year.


NOTE 3. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
- ----------------------------
The operations of the Account form a part of the operations of AAL. AAL, a
fraternal benefit society, qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under the
Internal Revenue Code. Under current law, no federal income taxes are payable
with respect to the Account's net investment income and net realized gains on
investments. Accordingly, no charge for income taxes is currently being made to
the Account. If such taxes are incurred by AAL in the future, a charge to the
Account may be assessed.


NOTE 4. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
- -------------------------------
The aggregate cost of investment securities purchased and proceeds from
investment securities sold by subaccount are as follows:

                      AAL VARIABLE LIFE ACCOUNT I       
                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 
                       AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1998         


The Board of Directors and Certificate Owners
Aid Association for Lutherans


We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of the AAL Variable
Life Account I (comprising, respectively, the Money Market, Bond, Balanced,
Large Company Stock, Small Company Stock, International Stock, and High Yield
Bond Subaccounts) as of December 31, 1998, and the related statements of
operations and changes in net assets for the period from May 15, 1998 (date
operations commenced) to December 31, 1998. 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 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 securities owned as of December 31, 1998, by correspondence with
the 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 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 each of the respective
subaccounts constituting the AAL Variable Life Account I at December 31, 1998,
and the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the
period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
