                     GOLDEN AMERICAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                                  June 30, 2001

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All adjustments
were of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise noted in Management's
Discussion and Analysis and the Notes to Financial Statements. Operating results
for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and related footnotes included in the Golden American Life Insurance Company's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.

CONSOLIDATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include Golden American Life
Insurance Company ("Golden American") and its wholly owned subsidiary, First
Golden American Life Insurance Company of New York ("First Golden," and with
Golden American, collectively, the "Companies"). All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

ORGANIZATION

Golden American is a wholly owned subsidiary of Equitable of Iowa Companies,
Inc. ("EIC" or the "Parent"). EIC is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of ING
Groep N.V., a global financial services holding company based in The
Netherlands.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS. As of January 1, 2001, the Companies adopted FAS No.
133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended
and interpreted by FAS No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133,
FAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133, and certain FAS No. 133
implementation issues. This standard, as amended, requires companies to record
all derivatives on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities and measure
those instruments at fair value. The manner in which companies are to record
gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair values of those derivatives
depends on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge
accounting.

Adoption of FAS No. 133 did not have a material effect on the Companies'
financial position or results of operations given the Companies' limited
derivative and embedded derivative holdings.

The Companies chose to elect a transition date of January 1, 1999 for embedded
derivatives. Therefore, only those derivatives embedded in hybrid instruments
issued, acquired or substantively modified by the entity on or after January 1,
1999 are recognized as separate assets or liabilities. The cumulative effect of
the accounting change upon adoption was not material.

ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES. The Companies may
from time to time utilize various derivative instruments to manage interest rate
and price risk (collectively, market risk). The Companies have appropriate
controls in place, and financial exposures are monitored and managed by the
Companies as an integral part of their overall risk management program.
Derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value. The
Companies occasionally purchase a financial instrument that contains a
derivative instrument that is "embedded" in the instrument. The Companies'
insurance products are also reviewed to determine whether they contain an
embedded derivative. The Companies assess whether the economic characteristics
of the embedded derivative are clearly and closely related to the economic
characteristics of the remaining

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
component of the financial instrument or insurance product (i.e., the host
contract) and whether a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded
instrument would meet the definition of a derivative instrument. When it is
determined that the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics that
are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host
contract and that a separate instrument with the same terms would qualify as a
derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is separated from the host
contract and carried at fair value. In cases where the host contract is measured
at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in current period earnings,
or the Companies are unable to reliably identify and measure the embedded
derivative for separation from its host contract, the entire contract is carried
on the balance sheet at fair value and is not designated as a hedging
instrument.

PENDING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141,
"Business Combinations", and No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets",
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new
rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no
longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance
with the Statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over
their useful lives. The Companies are required to adopt the new rules effective
January 1, 2002. The Companies are evaluating the impact of the adoption of
these standards and have not yet determined the effect of adoption on their
financial position and results of operations.

STATUTORY

Net loss for Golden American as determined in accordance with statutory
accounting practices was $54,982,000 and $12,235,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Total statutory capital and surplus was
$360,926,000 at June 30, 2001 and $406,923,000 at December 31, 2000 The National
Association of Insurance Commissioners has revised the Accounting Practices and
Procedures Manual, the guidance that defines statutory accounting principles.
The revised manual was effective January 1, 2001, and has been adopted, at least
in part, by the States of Delaware and New York, which are the states of
domicile for Golden American and First Golden, respectively. The revised manual
has resulted in changes to the accounting practices that the Companies use to
prepare their statutory-basis financial statements. The impact of these changes
to the Companies' statutory-basis capital and surplus as of January 1, 2001 was
not significant.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified
to conform to the June 30, 2001 financial statement presentation.

2.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income includes all changes in stockholder's equity during a
period except those resulting from investments by and distributions to the
stockholder. During the second quarters of 2001 and 2000, total comprehensive
income for the Companies amounted to $2.7 million and $6.4 million,
respectively, and $17.4 million and $7.0 million for the six months ended June
30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Other comprehensive income excludes net
investment losses included in net income which merely represent transfers from
unrealized to realized gains and losses. These amounts totaled $883,000 and
$120,000 during the second quarters of 2001 and 2000, respectively, and $185,000
and $588,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Such
amounts, which have been measured through the date of sale, are net of income
taxes and adjustments for the value of purchased insurance in force and deferred
policy acquisition costs totaling $1,736,000 and $(1,200,000) for the second
quarters of 2001 and 2000, respectively, and $(104,000) and $(2,041,000) for the
six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

   NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)(CONTINUED)
                                  June 30, 2001

3.  INVESTMENTS

Investment Valuation Analysis: The Companies analyze the investment portfolio at
least quarterly in order to determine if the carrying value of any investment
has been impaired. The carrying value of debt and equity securities is written
down to fair value by a charge to realized losses when impairment in value
appears to be other than temporary. During the first quarter of 2001, Golden
American determined that the carrying value of three bonds exceeded their
estimated net realizable value. As a result, during the six months ended June
30, 2001, Golden American recognized a total pre-tax loss of $679,000 to reduce
the carrying value of the bonds to their combined net realizable value of
$365,000.

4.  DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Companies may from time to time utilize various derivative instruments to
manage interest rate and price risk (collectively, market risk). The Companies
have appropriate controls in place, and financial exposures are monitored and
managed by the Companies as an integral part of their overall risk management
program. Derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value. At
June 30, 2001, the Companies did not utilize any such derivatives. The estimated
fair values and carrying amounts of the Companies' embedded derivatives at June
30, 2001 were $0, net of reinsurance. The estimated fair values and carrying
amounts of the embedded derivatives on a direct basis, before reinsurance, were
$1.1 million.

The fair value of these instruments was estimated based on quoted market prices,
dealer quotations or internal estimates.

5.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Operating Agreements: Directed Services, Inc. ("DSI"), an affiliate, acts as the
principal underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) and distributor of the variable

agreements with broker/dealers to distribute the Companies' variable insurance

Golden American provides certain managerial and supervisory services to DSI. The
fee paid by DSI for these services is calculated as a percentage of average
assets in the variable separate accounts. For the second quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2001, the fee was $5,831,000 and $11,533,000, respectively

$858,000 and $1,701,000, respectively, under this agreement ($616,000 and

of Iowa ("Equitable Life"), an affiliate. In consideration of an annual fee,
payable June 30, Equitable Life guarantees to Golden American that it will make
funds available, if needed, to Golden American to pay the contractual claims
made under the provisions of Golden American's life insurance and annuity
contracts. The agreement is not, and nothing contained therein or done pursuant
thereto by Equitable Life shall be deemed to constitute, a direct or indirect
guaranty by Equitable Life of the payment of any debt or other obligation,
indebtedness, or liability, of any kind or character whatsoever, of Golden
American. The agreement does not guarantee the value of the underlying assets
held in separate accounts in which funds of variable life insurance and

in deferred acquisition costs of $52.7 million and $160.8 million, respectively,
for the same periods ($109.3 million during the second quarter and the first six
months in 2000). At June 30, 2001, Golden American had a payable to Equitable
Life of $10.0 million due to the timing of the cash settlement for the modified
coinsurance agreement. As at December 31, 2000, Golden American had a payable of

of New York in the amount of $25.0 million related to this agreement. Under this
agreement, Golden American recorded a reinsurance recoverable of $21.4 million
and $14.6 million at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively.

Reciprocal Loan Agreement: Golden American maintains a reciprocal loan agreement
with ING America Insurance Holdings, Inc. ("ING AIH"), a Delaware corporation
and affiliate, to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated
short-term cash requirements. Under this agreement, which became effective
January 1, 1998 and expires December 31, 2007, Golden American and ING AIH can
borrow up to $65,000,000 from one another. Prior to lending funds to ING AIH,
Golden American must obtain the approval of the Department of Insurance of the
State of Delaware. Interest on any Golden American borrowings is charged at the
rate of ING AIH's cost of funds for the interest period plus 0.15%. Interest on
any ING AIH borrowings is charged at a rate based on the prevailing interest
rate of U.S. commercial paper available for purchase with a similar duration.
Under this agreement, Golden American incurred interest expense of $0 and
$254,000 for the second quarters of 2001 and 2000, respectively, and $25,000 and
$336,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. At June
30, 2001, Golden American did not have any borrowings or receivables from ING
AIH under this agreement.

Surplus Notes: On December 30, 1999, Golden American issued an 8.179% surplus
note in the amount of $50,000,000 to Equitable Life. The note matures on
December 29, 2029. Payment of the note and related accrued interest is
subordinate to payments due to policyholders, claimant and beneficiary claims,
as well as debts owed to all other classes of debtors, other than surplus note
holders, of Golden American. Any payment of principal and/or interest made is
subject to the prior approval of the Delaware Insurance Commissioner. Under this
agreement, Golden American incurred interest expense of $1,020,000 and

accrued interest is subordinate to payments due to policyholders, claimant and
beneficiary claims, as well as debts owed to all other classes of debtors, other
than surplus note holders, of Golden American. Any payment of principal and/or
interest made is subject to the prior approval of the Delaware Insurance

6.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Reinsurance: At June 30, 2001, the Companies had reinsurance treaties with five
unaffiliated reinsurers and three affiliated reinsurers covering a significant
portion of the minimum guaranteed death and living benefits under its variable
contracts as of June 30, 2001. Golden American remains liable to the extent its
reinsurers do not meet their obligations under the reinsurance agreements.

At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the Companies had net receivables of
$43,375,000 and $33,973,000, respectively, for reinsurance claims, reserve
credits, or other receivables from these reinsurers. These net receivables were
comprised of $1,350,000 and $1,820,000, respectively, for claims recoverable
from reinsurers, $2,546,000 and $4,007,000, respectively, for a payable for
reinsurance premiums, $21,400,000 and $14,642,000, respectively, for reserve
credits, and $23,171,000 and $21,518,000, respectively, for a receivable from an
unaffiliated reinsurer. Included in the accompanying financial statements are
net considerations to reinsurers of $5,962,000 for the second quarter of 2001
and $12,618,000 for the first six months of 2001 compared to $5,271,000 and
$7,908,000 for the same periods in 2000. Also included in the accompanying
financial statements are net policy benefits of $1,834,000 for the second
quarter of 2001 and $11,777,000 for the first six months of 2001 compared to
$1,278,000 and $1,835,000 for the same period in 2000.

On June 30, 2000, effective January 1, 2000, Golden American entered into a
modified coinsurance agreement with Equitable Life, an affiliate, covering a
considerable portion of Golden American's variable annuities issued after

this agreement pertaining to 2001. The carrying value of the separate account
liabilities covered under this agreement represent 25.0% of total

separate account liabilities outstanding at June 30, 2001. Golden American
remains liable to the extent Equitable Life does not meet its obligations under
the agreement. The accompanying financial statements are presented net of the
effects of the agreement.

On December 28, 2000, Golden American entered into a reinsurance agreement with
Security Life of Denver International Limited, an affiliate, covering minimum
guaranteed death benefits and minimum guaranteed living benefits of variable
annuities issued January 1, 2000. An irrevocable letter of credit was obtained
through Bank of New York in the amount of $25,000,000 related to this agreement.

On December 29, 2000, First Golden entered into a reinsurance treaty with London
Life Reinsurance Company of Pennsylvania, an unaffiliated reinsurer, covering
the minimum guaranteed death benefits of First Golden's variable annuities
issued after January 1, 2000.

Effective June 1, 1994, Golden American entered into a modified coinsurance
agreement with an unaffiliated reinsurer. The accompanying financial statements
are presented net of the effects of the treaty.

Investment Commitments: At June 30, 2001, outstanding commitments to fund
mortgage loans totaled $65,620,000. There were no outstanding commitments to
fund mortgage loans at December 31, 2000.

Guaranty Fund Assessments: Assessments are levied on the Companies by life and
health guaranty associations in most states in which the Companies are licensed
to cover losses of policyholders of insolvent or rehabilitated insurers. In some
states, these assessments can be partially offset through a reduction in future
premium taxes. The Companies cannot predict whether and to what extent
legislative initiatives may affect the right to offset. The associated cost for
a particular insurance company can vary significantly based upon its fixed
account premium volume by line of business and state premiums as well as its
potential for premium tax offset. The Companies have established an undiscounted
reserve to cover such assessments, review information regarding known failures,
and revise estimates of future guaranty fund assessments. The Companies charged
to expense $1,000 in guaranteed fund assessments in the second quarter of 2001
and $2,000 for the first six months of 2001 compared to $1,000 and $2,000 for
the same periods in 2000. At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the Companies
have an undiscounted reserve of $2,430,000 to cover future assessments (net of
related anticipated premium tax offsets) and have established an asset totaling
$691,000 and $733,000, respectively, for assessments paid which may be
recoverable through future premium tax offsets. The Companies believe this
reserve is sufficient to cover expected future guaranty fund assessments based
upon previous premiums and known insolvencies at this time.

Litigation: The Companies, like other insurance companies, may be named or
otherwise involved in lawsuits, including class action lawsuits and
arbitrations. In some class action and other actions involving insurers,
substantial damages have been sought and/or material settlement or award
payments have been made. The Companies currently believe no pending or
threatened lawsuits or actions exist that are reasonably likely to have a
material adverse impact on the Companies.

Vulnerability from Concentrations: The Companies have various concentrations in
the investment portfolio. As of June 30, 2001, the Companies had one investment
(other than bonds issued by agencies of the United States government) exceeding
ten percent of stockholder's equity. The Companies' asset growth, net investment
income, and cash flow are primarily generated from the sale of variable and
fixed insurance products and associated future policy benefits and separate
account liabilities. Substantial changes in tax laws that would make these
products less attractive to consumers and extreme fluctuations in interest rates
or stock market returns, which may result in higher lapse experience than
assumed, could cause a severe impact on the Companies' financial condition. One
broker/dealer generated 10% of the Companies' net sales during the second
quarter of 2001 (24% by two broker/dealers in the same period of 2000). One
broker/dealer generated 10% of the Companies' net sales during the first six
months of 2001 (12% by one broker/dealer in the same period of 2000). The
Premium Plus product generated 54% and 52% of the Companies' sales during

                                       10

the second quarter of 2001 and the first six months of 2001 (74% and 75% in the
same periods of 2000). The Guarantee product, introduced in the fourth quarter
of 2000, generated 13% and 18% of the Companies' sales during the second quarter
and the first six months of 2001. The ES II product generated 19% and 16% of the
Companies' sales during the second and the first six months of 2001 (12% and 11%
in the same periods of 2000).

Revolving Note Payable: To enhance short-term liquidity, the Companies
established revolving notes payable with SunTrust Bank, Atlanta (the "Bank").
These revolving notes payable were amended and restated in April 2001 with an
expiration date of May 31, 2002. The note was approved by the Boards of
Directors of Golden American and First Golden on August 5, 1998 and September
29, 1998, respectively. The total amount the Companies may have outstanding is
$85,000,000, of which Golden American and First Golden have individual credit
sublimits of $75,000,000 and $10,000,000, respectively. The notes accrue
interest at an annual rate equal to: (1) the cost of funds for the Bank for the
period applicable for the advance plus 0.225% or (2) a rate quoted by the Bank
to the Companies for the advance. The terms of the agreement require the
Companies to maintain the minimum level of Company Action Level Risk Based
Capital as established by applicable state law or regulation. During the second
quarters ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, the Companies incurred interest expense
of $0 and $8,000, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2001 and
2000, the Companies incurred interest expense of $1,000 and $36,000,
respectively. At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the Companies had
borrowings of $1,400,000 and $0, respectively, under these agreements.

             INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 13.  OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION

Not applicable.

ITEM 14.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

The following provisions regarding the Indemnification of Directors and Officers
of the Registrant are applicable:

     INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND INCORPORATORS

     Delaware  General  Corporation  Law,  Title 8,  Section 145  provides  that
     corporations   incorporated  in  Delaware  may  indemnify  their  officers,
     directors, employees or agents for threatened, pending or past legal action
     by reason of the fact  he/she is or was a  director,  officer,  employee or
     agent.  Such  indemnification  is provided for under the Company's  By-Laws
     under Article VI. Indemnification  includes all liability and loss suffered
     and  expenses  (including  attorneys'  fees)  reasonably  incurred  by such
     indemnitee.  Prepayment of expenses is permitted, however, reimbursement is
     required if it is ultimately  determined  that  indemnification  should not
     have been given.

     DIRECTORS' AND OFFICERS' INSURANCE

     The directors,  officers,  and employees of the registrant,  in addition to
     the  indemnifications  described above, are indemnified through the blanket
     liability insurance policy of Registrant's ultimate parent, ING Groep N.V.,
     or directly by  Equitable  of Iowa  Companies,  Inc.  for  liabilities  not
     covered through the indemnification provided under the By-Laws.

     SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
     of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling persons of
     the  Registrant  pursuant to the foregoing  provisions,  or otherwise,  the
     Registrant  has been  advised  that in the  opinion of the  Securities  and
     Exchange  Commission  such  indemnification  is  against  public  policy as
     expressed in the Act and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a
     claim for indemnification  against such liabilities (other than the payment
     by the  Registrant of expenses  incurred or paid by a director,  officer or
     controlling  person of the  Registrant  in the  successful  defense  of any
     action,  suit or  proceeding)  is  asserted  by such  director,  officer or
     controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,  the
     Registrant  will,  unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
     settled  by  controlling  precedent,  submit  to  a  court  of  appropriate
     jurisdiction  the question  whether such  indemnification  by it is against
     public  policy as  expressed  in the Act and will be  governed by the final
     adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 15.  RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

Not Applicable.
