                          ECONOMIC REVIEW AND OUTLOOK
       AN INTERVIEW WITH EDWARD GUAY, CHIEF ECONOMIST, CIGNA CORPORATION
 
HOW DID THE U.S. ECONOMY AND OTHER NATIONAL ECONOMIES PERFORM IN 1996?
 
The U.S. economy performed well during 1996, as did several other national
economies. Economic activity in the U.S. continued a broadening recovery from
the slowdown of late 1994 and early 1995 which was engineered by the Federal
Reserve. This recovery was held back to some extent by the lingering weakness
among some of the major trading partners of the U.S. However, many of the
previous restraints on U.S. growth -- such as the real estate overbuilding
during the 1980s -- became less significant restraints as the markets absorbed
past excesses. The U.S. also benefited from a flood of liquidity as central
banks in many parts of the world aggressively eased interest rates to try to
restore growth.
 
Some other countries also recovered strongly last year. In some cases, such as
Mexico, Venezuela, Argentina, and the Scandinavian countries, the recoveries
were rebounds from past crises. In other cases, the resumption of growth
reflected stronger and more sustainable growth of both output and final demand.
In the latter group were Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia.
 
There was some political background "noise" during the year in the U.S. and
elsewhere. But nowhere was it particularly disruptive of long-term economic
fundamentals. In all, 1996 was a vintage year for the U.S. and marked the
beginning of what should be several good years for the world economy.
 
WHAT KEY FACTORS ARE EXPECTED TO DRIVE WORLDWIDE GROWTH THIS YEAR?
 
The major engines of growth will include energy refining and development and
stronger demand for infrastructure products, such as power generation and
communications equipment.
 
DID INFLATION POSE A SERIOUS THREAT ON THE WORLD ECONOMIC SCENE IN 1996?
 
Although there were several inflation shocks last year, the massive liquidity
expansion did not cause inflation to rise. Excess capacity and labor in world
markets combined with technological change, continuing corporate restructuring,
and relatively free trade to help keep prices under control.
 
WHAT WERE THE MAJOR TRENDS IN THE U.S. BOND MARKET LAST YEAR?
 
When 1996 began, the U.S. bond market anticipated recession, but by late spring
the bond market was more fearful of resurging growth. Treasury bond yields rose
from 6% to more than 7% between the end of 1995 and the middle of 1996 because
of the shift in psychology and futures trading. But from August through
November, fears of growth eased and bond yields retraced more than half the
earlier rise. Although good economic news caused another setback in the bond
market in December, the bond market performed better than generally expected for
the year as a whole.
<PAGE>
WHAT ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE EQUITY MARKET?
 
The equity market performed extraordinarily well again in 1996, although it was
mainly the large capitalization domestic stocks that did well. Small
capitalization domestic stocks, many major international markets, most notably
the Japanese market, and some of the emerging markets, particularly in Asia,
underperformed. Profits were stronger than expected and balance sheets continued
to improve, primarily because of restructuring, share buybacks, and the
deepening and broadening impact of new technology. The financial improvement and
increased liquidity benefited both the stock market and the corporate bond
market.
 
IS THE U.S. EQUITY MARKET LIKELY TO SUSTAIN ITS STRONG GROWTH OF RECENT YEARS?
WHAT ABOUT FOREIGN MARKETS?
 
U.S. equity valuations may experience a correction because they are at the
highest levels in 30 years and there is less scope now for extraordinary profit
gains from either a reduced rate of inflation or restructuring. But in foreign
equity markets, the scope for restructuring and for unusual profits gains
remains large. A sustained bull market in international markets could run for
another two to four years.
 
WHAT IS THE ECONOMIC OUTLOOK FOR 1997?
 
The new year should bring continued growth in the U.S. and somewhat more
favorable trends in the world economy. Several U.S. economic sectors are already
operating at or above potential and are not likely to contribute greatly to
growth during 1997. Among those are autos, housing, and some key components of
business investment spending. Other U.S. economic sectors and regions are still
operating well below their normal capabilities and offer the potential for
upside surprises during the year. U.S. growth will be spurred by commercial
construction and export industries.
 
After growing by more than 3.0% during 1996, the U.S. economy should be able to
grow by 2.75% to 3.0% during 1997, but with somewhat different composition.
Overall, our world view is still optimistic. The next year or two should be good
for business, and for diversified investors.

* Variable Annuity unit values reflect the Company's mortality and expense risk
  charge at a reduced rate of 1.20% per year instead of 1.25% per year
  throughout the 5/1/96 through 6/30/96 period. Had the full charge been
  imposed, ending accumulation unit values would have been lower for those
  funds.
 
Accumulation Unit Values are net of charges against the assets of the Variable
Accounts for the assumption of mortality and expense risks and for
administrative expenses.

1.  ORGANIZATION
 
    CG Variable Annuity Separate Account II (the Account) is registered as a
Unit Investment Trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
operations of the Account are part of the operations of Connecticut General Life
Insurance Company (CG Life). The assets and liabilities of the Account are
clearly identified and distinguished from other assets and liabilities of CG
Life. The assets of the Account are not available to meet the general
obligations of CG Life and are held for the exclusive benefit of the
participants. Beginning in 1996, the Account included two contract types. One
contract is used for all states with the exception of New York; the other is
used only for New York. Each contract has its own terms and fees. (See Note 4)
 
    The assets of the Account are divided into variable sub-accounts each of
which is invested in shares of one of nineteen portfolios (mutual funds) of six
diversified open-end management investment companies, each portfolio with its
own investment objective. The variable sub-accounts are:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
A.  INVESTMENT VALUATION: --  Investments held by the sub-accounts are valued at
    their respective closing net asset value per share as determined by the
    mutual funds as of December 31, 1996. The change in the difference between
    cost and value is reflected as unrealized gain (loss) in the Statements of
    Operations.
 
B.  INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: --  Investment transactions are recorded on the
    trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and
    losses on sales of investments are determined by the last-in, first-out cost
    basis of the investment sold. Dividend and capital gain distributions are
    recorded on the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are settled
    through CG Life.
 
C.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: --  The operations of the Account form a part of, and
    are taxed with, the total operations of CG Life, which is taxed as a life
    insurance company. Under existing federal income tax law, investment income
    (dividends) and capital gains attributable to the Account are not taxed.
 
D.  ANNUITY RESERVES: --  The amount of annuity reserves is determined by
    actuarial assumptions which meet statutory requirements. Gains or losses
    resulting from the actual mortality experience, the responsibility of which
    is assumed by CG Life, are offset by transfers to or from CG Life.

CG VARIABLE ANNUITY SEPARATE ACCOUNT II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
4.  CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
 
    CG Life assumes the risk that annuitants may live longer than expected and
also assumes a mortality risk in connection with the death benefits of the
contract. CG Life also assumes a risk that its actual administrative expenses
may be higher than amounts deducted for such expenses. CG Life charges each
variable sub-account the daily equivalent of 1.20%, on an annual basis, of the
current value of each sub-account's assets for the assumption of these risks.
For contracts sold in the state of New York, after April 30, 1996, annual fees
of 1.25% are charged for mortality and expense risks; .05% of this charge was
waived from May 1, 1996 through June 30, 1996.
 
    CG Life also deducts a daily administrative fee from the assets of each
variable sub-account as partial reimbursement for administrative expenses
relating to the issuance and maintenance of the contract and the participant's
annuity account. This charge is currently at an effective annual rate of .10%.
For contracts sold in the state of New York, after April 30, 1996, the effective
annual rate is .15%.
 
    As partial compensation for administrative services provided, CG Life
additionally receives a $35 ($30 on New York contracts) annuity account fee per
year from each contract. This charge is deducted from the fixed or variable sub-
account of the participant or on a pro-rata basis from two or more fixed or
variable sub-accounts in relation to their values under the contract. Fixed
sub-accounts are part of the general account of CG Life and are not included in
these financial statements. The annuity account fee will be waived for any
contract year in which the annuity account value equals or exceeds $100,000 as
of the last valuation date of the contract year. Annuity account fees, for the
variable sub-accounts, amounting to $25,726, were deducted for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
 
    For an additional charge (optional death benefit fee), an optional death
benefit may be selected by the participant. The optional death benefit fee will
be deducted from the participant's fixed or variable sub-account or on a
pro-rata basis from two or more fixed or variable sub-accounts in relation to
their values under the contract on the date of each contract anniversary. For
contracts that are issued in the state of New York, the optional death benefit
is not available. The optional death benefit fees, for the variable
sub-accounts, amounted to $856 for the year ended December 31, 1996.
 
    Under certain circumstances, CG Life reserves the right to charge a transfer
fee of up to $10 for transfers between sub-accounts. Transfer fees, for the
variable sub-accounts, amounted to $60 for the year ended December 31, 1996.

4.  CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
    No deduction for sales charges is made from a premium payment. However, if a
cash withdrawal is made, a withdrawal charge (contingent deferred sales charge)
may be assessed by CG Life. The withdrawal charge, if assessed, varies from 0-7%
depending upon the duration of each contract deposit. The withdrawal charge is
deducted from withdrawal proceeds for full withdrawals and reduces the remaining
account value for partial withdrawals. These charges are paid to CG Life as
reimbursement for services provided. These services include commissions paid to
sales personnel, the costs associated with preparation of sales literature and
other promotional costs and acquisition expenses. Withdrawal charges paid to CG
Life for the variable sub-accounts, for the year ended December 31, 1996,
amounted to $39,289.
 
5.  DISTRIBUTION OF NET INCOME
 
    The Account does not expect to declare dividends to participants from
accumulated net income. The accumulated net income is distributed to
participants as part of surrenders, death benefits, transfers to other fixed or
variable sub-accounts or annuity payments in excess of net purchase payments.
 
6.  DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
 
    Under the provisions of Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
(the Code), a variable annuity contract, other than a contract issued in
connection with certain types of employee benefit plans, will not be treated as
an annuity contract for federal tax purposes for any period for which the
investments of the segregated asset account, on which the contract is based, are
not adequately diversified. The Code provides that the "adequately diversified"
requirement may be met if the underlying investments satisfy either a statutory
safe harbor test or diversification requirements set forth in regulations issued
by the Secretary of the Treasury. CG Life believes, based on assurances from the
mutual fund managers, that the mutual funds satisfy the requirements of the
regulations.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors of Connecticut General
Life Insurance Company and Participants of the
CG Variable Annuity Separate Account II
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of each of the sub-accounts, Alger
American Fund--Alger American Growth Portfolio, Alger American Leveraged AllCap
Portfolio, Alger American MidCap Growth Portfolio, Alger American Small
Capitalization Portfolio; Fidelity Variable Insurance Products
Fund--Equity-Income Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio, High Income Portfolio,
Overseas Portfolio; Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund II--Asset Manager
Portfolio, Investment Grade Bond Portfolio; MFS Variable Insurance Trust--MFS
Total Return Series, MFS Utilities Series, MFS World Governments Series;

Value) Accumulation Trust--OCC Global Equity Portfolio, OCC Managed Portfolio,
OCC Small Cap Portfolio (constituting the CG Variable Annuity Separate Account
II, hereafter referred to as "the Account") at December 31, 1996, the results of
each of their operations and the changes in each of their net assets for the
periods indicated, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
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 of these financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at
December 31, 1996 by correspondence with the custodians, provide a reasonable
basis for the opinion expressed above.

4.  CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
 
    CIGNA Life assumes the risk that annuitants may live longer than expected
and also assumes a mortality risk in connection with the death benefits of the
contract. CIGNA Life also assumes a risk that its actual administrative expenses
may be higher than amounts deducted for such expenses. CIGNA Life charges each
variable sub-account the daily equivalent of 1.20%, on an annual basis, of the
current value of each sub-account's assets for the assumption of these risks.
 
    CIGNA Life also deducts a daily administrative fee from the assets of each
variable sub-account as partial reimbursement for administrative expenses
relating to the issuance and maintenance of the contract and the participant's
annuity account. This charge is currently at an effective annual rate of .10%.
 
    As partial compensation for administrative services provided, CIGNA Life
additionally receives a $35 annuity account fee per year from each contract.
This charge is deducted from the fixed or variable sub-account of the
participant or on a pro-rata basis from two or more fixed or variable
sub-accounts in relation to their values under the contract. Fixed sub-accounts
are part of the general account of CIGNA Life and are not included in these
financial statements. The annuity account fee will be waived for any contract
year in which the annuity account value equals or exceeds $100,000 as of the
last valuation date of the contract year. There were no annuity account fees
deducted during the periods covered by these financial statements.

4.  CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
    For an additional charge (optional death benefit fee), an optional death
benefit may be selected by the participant. The optional death benefit fee will
be deducted from the participant's fixed or variable sub-account or on a
pro-rata basis from two or more fixed or variable sub-accounts in relation to
their values under the contract on the date of each contract anniversary. The
optional death benefit fees, for the variable sub-accounts, amounted to $78
during the periods covered by these financial statements.
 
    Under certain circumstances, CIGNA Life reserves the right to charge a
transfer fee of up to $10 for transfers between sub-accounts. No transfer fees
were deducted during the periods covered by these financial statements.
 
    The fees charged by CIGNA Life for mortality and expense risks and
administrative fees, from the variable sub-accounts, for the periods noted,

    No deduction for sales charges is made from a premium payment. However, if a
cash withdrawal is made, a withdrawal charge (contingent deferred sales charge)
may be assessed by CIGNA Life. The withdrawal charge, if assessed, varies from
0-7% depending upon the duration of each contract deposit. The withdrawal charge
is deducted from withdrawal proceeds for full withdrawals and reduces the
remaining account value for partial withdrawals. These charges are paid to CIGNA
Life as reimbursement for services provided. These services include commissions
paid to sales personnel, the costs of preparation of sales literature and other
promotional costs and acquisition expenses. Withdrawal charges paid to CIGNA
Life for the variable sub-accounts, for the periods ended December 31, 1996,
amounted to $143.

5.  DISTRIBUTION OF NET INCOME
 
    The Account does not expect to declare dividends to participants from
accumulated net income. The accumulated net income is distributed to
participants as part of surrenders, death benefits, transfers to other fixed or
variable sub-accounts or annuity payments in excess of net purchase payments.
 
6.  DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
 
    Under the provisions of Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
(the Code), a variable annuity contract, other than a contract issued in
connection with certain types of employee benefit plans, will not be treated as
an annuity contract for federal tax purposes for any period for which the
investments of the segregated asset account, on which the contract is based, are
not adequately diversified. The Code provides that the "adequately diversified"
requirement may be met if the underlying investments satisfy either a statutory
safe harbor test or diversification requirements set forth in regulations issued
by the Secretary of the Treasury. CIGNA Life believes, based on assurances from
the mutual fund managers, that the mutual funds satisfy the requirements of the
regulations.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and the

all material respects, the financial position of each of the sub-accounts, Alger

Portfolio, Alger American MidCap Growth Portfolio, Alger American Small

Value) Accumulation Trust--OCC Global Equity Portfolio, OCC Managed Portfolio,
OCC Small Cap Portfolio (constituting the CIGNA Variable Annuity Separate
Account I, hereafter referred to as "the Account") at December 31, 1996, the
results of each of their operations and the changes in each of their net assets
for the periods since inception (as indicated in the financial statements)
through December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. 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 of these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit, which included
confirmation of securities at December 31, 1996 by correspondence with the
custodians, provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

1. ORGANIZATION
 
    CG Variable Life Insurance Separate Account I (the Account) is registered as
a Unit Investment Trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The operations of the Account are part of the operations of Connecticut General
Life Insurance Company (CG Life). The assets and liabilities of the Account are

    The assets of the Account are divided into variable sub-accounts each of

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies consistently followed in the preparation of the Account's
financial statements.
 
A.  INVESTMENT VALUATION:--Investments held by the sub-accounts are valued at
    their respective closing net asset values per share as determined by the
    mutual funds as of December 31, 1996. The change in the difference between
    cost and value is reflected as unrealized gain (loss) in the Statements of
    Operations.
 
B.  INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS:--Investment transactions are recorded on the trade
    date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and losses
    on sales of investments are determined by the last-in, first-out cost basis
    of the investment sold. Dividend and capital gain distributions are recorded
    on the ex-dividend date. Investment transactions are settled through CG
    Life.

CG VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE SEPARATE ACCOUNT I
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
4. CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
 
    CG Life assumes the risk that policyholders may live longer than expected
and also assumes a mortality risk in connection with the death benefits of the
contract. CG Life also assumes a risk that its actual administrative expenses
may be higher than amounts deducted for such expenses. CG Life charges each
variable sub-account, for mortality and expense risks, a daily deduction,
equivalent to .45% per year during the first ten policy years and .25% per year
thereafter. The mortality and expense risk charges, for each sub-account, are
reported on the Statements of Operations.
 
    CG Life deducts a premium load of 3.5% of each premium payment to cover
state taxes and federal income tax liabilities.
 
    CG Life charges a monthly administrative fee of $15 in the first policy year
and $5 in subsequent policy years. This charge is for items such as premium
billing and collection, policy value calculation, confirmations and periodic
reports.
 
    CG Life charges a monthly deduction for the cost of insurance and any
charges for supplemental riders. The cost of insurance charge depends on the
attained age, risk classification, gender classification (in accordance with
state law) and the current net amount at risk. On a monthly basis, the
administrative fee and the cost of insurance charge are deducted proportionately
from the value of each variable sub-account and/or the fixed account funding
option. The fixed account is part of the general account of CG Life and is not
included in these financial statements.
 
    Under certain circumstances, CG Life reserves the right to charge a transfer
fee of up to $25 for transfers between sub-accounts. For the year ended December
31, 1996, no transfer fees were deducted from the variable sub-accounts.
 
    The fees charged by CG Life for premium loads (deducted from premium
payments), administrative fees and the amount deducted for the cost of
insurance, both of which are included in participant withdrawals, for variable
sub-accounts for the year ended December 31, 1996, amounted to:

CG VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE SEPARATE ACCOUNT I
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 1996
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
4. CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS (CONTINUED)
    CG Life, upon full surrender of a policy, may charge a surrender charge.
This charge is in part a deferred sales charge and in part a recovery of certain
first year administrative costs. The amount of the surrender charge, if any,
will depend on the amount of the death benefit, the amount of premium payments
made during the first two policy years and the age of the policy. In no event
will the surrender charge exceed the maximum allowed by state or Federal law. No
surrender charge is imposed on a partial surrender, but an administrative fee of
$25 is imposed, allocated pro-rata among the variable sub-accounts (and, where
applicable, the fixed account) from which the partial surrender proceeds are
taken. No full surrender or partial surrender administrative charges were paid
to CG Life, attributable to the variable sub-accounts, for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
 
5. DISTRIBUTION OF NET INCOME
 
    The Account does not expect to declare dividends to participants from
accumulated net income. The accumulated net income is distributed to
participants as part of death benefits, surrenders, and transfers to other fixed
or variable sub-accounts.
 
6. DIVERSIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
 
    Under the provisions of Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
(the Code), a variable life insurance policy will not be treated as life
insurance under Section 7702 of the Code for any period for which the
investments of the segregated asset account, on which the policy is based, are
not adequately diversified. The Code provides that the "adequately diversified"
requirement may be met if the underlying investments satisfy either a statutory
safe harbor test or diversification requirements set forth in regulations issued
by the Secretary of Treasury. CG Life believes, based on assurances from the
mutual fund managers, that the mutual funds satisfy the requirements of the
regulations.

To the Board of Directors of Connecticut General
Life Insurance Company and Participants of the
CG Variable Life Insurance Separate Account I
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of each of the sub-accounts, Alger
American Fund--Alger American Growth Portfolio, Alger American Leveraged AllCap
Portfolio, Alger American MidCap Growth Portfolio, Alger American Small
Capitalization Portfolio; Fidelity Variable Insurance Products
Fund--Equity-Income Portfolio; Fidelity Variable Insurance Products Fund
II--Asset Manager Portfolio, Investment Grade Bond Portfolio; MFS Variable
Insurance Trust--MFS Total Return Series, MFS Utilities Series, MFS World
Governments Series; Neuberger & Berman Advisers Management Trust--AMT Balanced
Portfolio, AMT Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio, AMT Partners Portfolio; OCC
(formerly Quest for Value) Accumulation Trust--OCC Global Equity Portfolio, OCC
Managed Portfolio, OCC Small Cap Portfolio (constituting the CG Variable Life
Insurance Separate Account I, hereafter referred to as "the Account") at
December 31, 1996, the results of each of their operations and the changes in
each of their net assets for the periods indicated, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. 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 of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which 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, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 1996 by
correspondence with the custodians, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.
