To Our Contract Owners and Participants:
 
Despite a fourth-quarter rally in 2001, the market volatility we witnessed over the past two years has continued into 2002. As of June 30th, most U. S. equity indices have retreated since December; bond performance has been decidedly mixed year to date; and many international equity indices have outperformed the U. S. market this year. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) Chairman Alan Greenspan has declared that, in fact, the recession is over, and many financial experts have agreed with him. We are beginning to see growth again in the U. S. economy and in economies around the globe. But we would qualify that with a caution that the exciting growth rates of the 1990’s are not coming back any time soon.
 
Our view of the situation is that corporate profits still look weak, despite the recession being over. We think the markets may be bumping along the bottom for a bit longer before a recovery gathers steam. In past economic recoveries, we have usually witnessed a sharp rebound in corporate earnings. In this recovery, however, we believe a market recovery has been stymied by several issues that have held back earnings and profit growth and also created something of a crisis of confidence among investors. Perhaps the most crippling factor of all has been excess capacity. Created in the exuberance of the late 1990’s, excess capacity in some industries, notably technology and telecom, has led to weak pricing, and therefore weak profits and falling stock prices. In addition, the collapse of WorldCom in June threatened to eclipse the losses inflicted on investors by Enron—and gave the public one more reason to question corporate accounting in general. A third factor has been the huge debt loads taken on by fast-growing firms in the late 1990’s—which have become hard to repay in the current slow-growth environment.
 
As investors have shunned many formerly “hot” companies with high debt loads, the market has rotated to favor industries that once seemed sleepy compared to technology or telecom. Some of the best performers so far in 2002 have been firms in the basic materials sector that make products like paper or industrial gases and consumer staples firms that make the necessities of daily life, from soft drinks to bath soap. Healthcare services firms, many of which address the issue of rising healthcare costs, have also done well.
 
The significant magnitude and extended duration of the decline in markets we have been experiencing has been extremely challenging. Especially in contrast to the unusually strong preceding decade, it may appear as though something is wrong with the markets. However, this correction represents a fairly typical pattern of markets returning to historical norms and flushing excesses out in the process. These excesses, including both over investment in a variety of industries and overstated revenues, were extreme, as reflected in the magnitude of the correction. Whether the correction is nearing its end is difficult to gauge. We continue to be sensitive to the volatility in the markets, and very focused on valuation of individual securities. Earnings validity, always an important part of the analysis process, has become even more critical. By staying diversified and maintaining a long-term perspective, we are endeavoring to apply our bottom-up fundamental research to identify the unique opportunities these markets create.
 
Near term, we expect the equity market to remain difficult, as a number of companies are likely to announce disappointing second and third quarter results. Looking forward, the gradual strengthening of the economy should fuel stronger company fundamentals in 2003, and an increase in capital expenditures by year-end. We remain underweight in technology, healthcare, and we are investing in companies with the most attractive earnings prospects across a broad range of industries, because we believe that the recovery will be company specific, not necessarily industry specific.
 
 
Sincerely,
By:
 
/s/    DONALD E. BOGGS

1.    Organization
 
The Paul Revere Variable Annuity Contract Accumulation Fund (“the Fund”) is a separate account of The Paul Revere Variable Annuity Insurance Company (“Paul Revere Variable”), and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end diversified investment company. Paul Revere Variable is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Paul Revere Life Insurance Company (“Paul Revere Life”) which in turn is wholly-owned by The Paul Revere Corporation which is wholly-owned by UnumProvident Corporation, formerly Provident Companies, Inc. (“Provident”). The Fund is the investment vehicle for Paul Revere Variable’s tax-deferred group annuity contracts.
 
2.    Accounting policies
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in those statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from such estimates.
 
Common and preferred stocks are stated at market values which are based on the last sales prices at June 30, 2002, as reported on national security exchanges or the closing bid prices for unlisted securities as reported by investment dealers. Short-term notes are stated at amortized cost which approximates market value. Unrealized investment gains and losses are included in contract owners’ equity. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of specific identification of investments. Security transactions are accounted for on the day after the securities are purchased or sold. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued on a daily basis.
 
The Fund does not distribute net investment income and net realized capital gains through dividends to contract owners. The allocation of net investment income and net realized capital gains occurs automatically in the daily determination of unit net asset values. They are, therefore, included in the value of the contracts in force and in payments to contract owners.
 
Contract owners’ equity is comprised of two components. Deferred contracts terminable by owner represents amounts attributable to contracts which have not yet annuitized. Currently payable contracts include amounts equivalent to the annuity reserves relating to contracts with current annuities. Annuity reserves are computed for currently payable contracts according to the 1900 Progressive Annuity Mortality Table. The assumed interest rate is either 3.5% or 5% according to the option elected by the annuitant at the time of conversion. Paul Revere Variable bears all the mortality risk associated with these contracts.
 
3.    Investment advisor
 
Paul Revere Variable acts as investment advisor and underwriter to the Fund and provides mortality and expense guarantees to holders of variable annuity contracts. For these services, Paul Revere Variable receives mortality and expense risk fees and investment management and advisory service fees as shown on the statement of operations which, on an annual basis, will not exceed 2% of the average daily net asset value of the Fund.
 
Certain administrative services of the Fund are provided by The Variable Annuity Life Insurance Company (“VALIC”) under a contract dated May 15, 1998. These services include processing of unit transactions and daily unit value calculations subsequent to December 1, 1998 as well as accounting and other services.
 
4.    Investment sub-advisor
 
Under an investment sub-advisory agreement with MFS Institutional Advisors, Inc. (“MFSI”), MFSI provides investment management services to Paul Revere Variable for a fee which, on an annual basis, will equal 0.35% of the average daily net assets of each series of the Fund. This fee is borne by Paul Revere Variable only and does not represent an additional charge to the Fund.

5.      Federal income taxes
 
The Fund’s operations are included with those of Paul Revere Variable, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code and is included in a consolidated federal tax return filed by Paul Revere Life. In the opinion of Paul Revere Variable management, current law provides that investment income and capital gains from assets maintained in the Fund for the exclusive benefit of the contract owners are generally not subject to federal income tax. However, to the extent that Paul Revere Variable incurs federal income taxes based on the income from the Fund’s assets, the Fund will be charged. No charges for federal income taxes have been made since the inception of the Fund.
