The Notes to Financial Statements are an integral part of these statements. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CG Variable Annuity Account I Notes to Financial Statements 5 1. Organization The CG Variable Annuity 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). These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and reflect management's estimates and assumptions, such as those regarding fair market value and reserve assumptions, that affect recorded amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates are discussed throughout the Notes to Financial Statements. Under the terms of the annuity contracts, the individual participant can elect either a fixed or variable annuity benefit at retirement. The group participant can elect either a fixed or variable annuity benefit during the accumulation phase and at retirement. The assets providing for the variable annuity benefit will be invested in the TimesSquare VP S&P 500 Index Fund[RegTM] (the Fund), and the fixed annuity contract will be purchased from the Account's sponsor, CG Life. The Fund was organized by CG Life in 1968. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the Account's financial statements: A. The investment in the Fund's shares is valued at the closing net asset value per share as determined by the Fund on June 30, 2004. The difference between cost and fair value is reflected as unrealized appreciation on investments. B. The amount of the reserve 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 CG Life, are represented in the mortality guarantee adjustment. C. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed), and income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Cost of investments sold is determined on the basis of the last-in, first-out method. D. The operations of the Account are included in, and taxed as part of CG Life as a life insurance company. Under Internal Revenue Code Section 817(h), there is no taxable income attributable to the Account (See note 7). 3. Cost of Investments The cost of investments represents the accumulated cost of the Fund's shares purchased and sold by the Account at net asset value with net participant contributions received and from reinvestment of all distributions made by the Fund. The cost of purchases and the proceeds from sales of investments were $274,579 and $1,762,708, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2004. 4. Changes in Units Outstanding Accumulation units issued and redeemed were 440 and 7,118, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2004. There were no annuity units issued in 2004. Annuity units distributed were 45,645, for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Mortality units issued were 1,272 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Annuity units are issued in the event of an annuitization. 5. Expenses and Related Party Transactions Participant contributions are net of premium taxes (if any) and sales load of $1,839 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. These amounts are deducted from participant contributions before amounts are invested in the Account and paid to CG Life in accordance with the underlying -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CG Variable Annuity Account I Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) 6 contract. Mortality and expense risk charges, which generally range from 0.25% to 1.10%, depending on contract size, are also paid to CG Life. Withdrawal of funds on terminated contracts is net of administrative charges of $3,031 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. These amounts are paid to CG Life in accordance with the underlying contract. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, management fees were paid to TimesSquare Capital Management, an affiliate of CG Life, in its capacity as advisor to the Fund. The advisory agreement provides for a fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of the average net assets of the Fund for the years then ended. Contracts were sold primarily by persons who were insurance agents of or brokers for CG Life. These persons were authorized by applicable law to sell life and other forms of personal insurance. Contracts are no longer actively sold. 6. Financial Highlights A summary of changes in unit values and various performance ratios follows.

The total return does not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. **These ratios represent the annualized contract expenses, consisting of mortality and expense charges, for the years indicated. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund are excluded. ***These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the subaccount from the underlying mutual fund, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average assets. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that result in direct reductions in the unit values. The recognition of investment income by the subaccount is affected by the timing of the dividends by the underlying fund in which the subaccounts invest. ****These ratios represent the annualized contract expenses, consisting of mortality and expense, and assumed investment return charges, for the years indicated. The assumed investment returns of 3% to 5% are normally available. The selection of the assumed investment return is made by the Contractholder from a range made available by CG Life, and is used to determine the purchase rates for all annuities affected under the Contract. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund are excluded. 7. Diversification Requirements Under the provisions of Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code (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, as set forth in regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury. The Secretary of the Treasury has issued regulations under Section 817(h) of the Code. CG Life believes that the Account satisfies the current requirements of the regulations, and it intends for the Account to continue to meet such requirements. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CG Variable Annuity Account II 9 Statement of Assets and Liabilities June 30, 2004
