A MESSAGE TO VARIABLE ANNUITY CONTRACT OWNERS
After significant increases in the Stock
Markets in 1995, the first half of 1996
witnessed increases which were more in line
with long term historical results. As of
this writing, the Dow Jones Industrial
Average increased approximately 5% in value
from the beginning of the year, even after
contending with a correction of about 7% from
its high point. The S&P 500 has increased
since the beginning of 1996 by a smaller
amount of approximately 3%. The Dow Jones
Industrial and the S&P 500 are unmanaged indices.
While the Stock Markets increased by
relatively small amounts, and are struggling
to hold on to these gains, the yield on the
30 year Treasury Bond increased fairly
significantly from 5.9% at the beginning of
the year, to approximately 7%. Short term
rates, as measured by the 3 month Treasury
Bill, are yielding 5.1% now, which is about
the same as the beginning of the year.
The U.S. Gross Domestic Product for the
first quarter of 1996 increased 2.2% and for
the second quarter the increase is expected
to be near 4.0%. Inflation remains low with
the Consumer Price Index running at 2.8% this
year after last year's 2.5%.
David H. Roe, President
The Outlook. For the balance of 1996, we expect solid economic growth and
continuing moderate inflation with interest rates remaining near current
levels. At the time of this report, macroeconomic indicators are showing mixed
signs. While the expansion is slowing, business profits are expected to
continue to improve, albeit at a slower rate than in 1995.
Distributor of the Contract. ReliaStar Financial Marketing Corporation, a
Bankers Security affiliate, distributes the contract.
Name Change. Please note that on July 1, 1996, Bankers Security Life
Insurance Society changed its name to ReliaStar Bankers Security Life
Insurance Company. ReliaStar Bankers Security is part of a group of companies
owned by ReliaStar Financial Corp.
Respectfully,
David H. Roe
President
ReliaStar Bankers Security Life Insurance Company

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1996
Note 1 - Organization
Bankers Security Variable Annuity Funds 121, 122, 123, 124, 125 and 126 (the
"Separate Accounts") were established as Separate Accounts in April 1975
(Funds 121, 122, 123), July 1977 (Fund 124), July 1978 (Fund 125) and February
1981 (Fund 126), under the provisions of New York insurance laws by Bankers
Security Life Insurance Society ("Bankers Security"). The Separate Accounts
are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a unit investment
trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), and are
used to fund certain benefits for variable annuity policies issued by Bankers
Security. The assets of the Separate Accounts are invested in open-end
diversified management investment companies which are also registered under the
Act. The Separate Accounts are closed to new contract owners and additional
payments from existing contract owners.
Note 2 - Investments
Security transactions are recorded on the trade date at the purchase cost or
sales proceeds, as applicable. Investments owned are valued at closing market
quotations. The difference between the beginning of year value and current
market value of investments owned is recorded as an unrealized gain (loss) on
investments. Dividends received are generally recorded as income on the
record date and are reinvested to purchase additional mutual fund shares. The
aggregate cost of shares acquired and the aggregate proceeds from shares sold,
for the six months ended June 30, 1996, were:
<TABLE>
Cost of Shares Proceeds from Cost of Shares Proceeds from
Fund Acquired Shares Sold Fund Acquired Shares Sold
<S> <C> <C> <S> <C> <C>
121 $ 48,813 $ 41,180 124 $ 287,974 $ 407,906
122 38,987 117,512 125 6,430,483 6,501,750
123 6,094,986 6,201,267 126 117,532 794,290
</TABLE>
Note 3 - Taxes
Bankers Security is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Since the Separate Accounts are
not a separate entity from Bankers Security, and their operations form a part
of Bankers Security, they are not taxed separately as a "regulated investment
company" under Sub-chapter M of the Code. Under existing Federal income tax
law, investment income of the Separate Accounts, to the extent that it is
applied to increase reserves under a contract, is not taxed and may be
compounded through reinvestment without additional tax to Bankers Security.
Note 4 - Charges and Transfers
Bankers Security deducts a daily charge equal to an annual rate of 1.0% of the
daily asset value of the Separate Accounts for mortality and expense risks
assumed.
The amount of the reserves for contracts in the distribution period is
determined by actuarial assumptions which meet statutory requirements. Gains
or losses resulting from actual mortality experience, the full responsibility
for which is assumed by Bankers Security, are offset by transfers to, or from,
Bankers Security.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements which do
not affect the results of operations as previously reported.

Security, effective July 1, 1996, to ReliaStar Bankers Security Life Insurance
Company. Policyowner notifications will be mailed once other states approvals
are obtained.
