NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Travelers Separate Account PF for Variable Annuities ("Separate Account
PF") is a separate account of The Travelers Insurance Company ("The
Travelers"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. (formerly
Travelers Group Inc.), and is available for funding certain variable annuity
contracts issued by The Travelers. Separate Account PF is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a unit investment trust.
Participant purchase payments applied to Separate Account PF are invested in
one or more eligible funds in accordance with the selection made by the
contract owner. As of December 31, 1998, the eligible funds available under
Separate Account PF were: Smith Barney High Income Portfolio, Smith Barney
International Equity Portfolio, Smith Barney Large Cap Value Portfolio,
Smith Barney Money Market Portfolio and MFS Total Return Portfolio of
Travelers Series Fund Inc.; MFS Mid Cap Growth Portfolio and MFS Research
Portfolio of The Travelers Series Trust; Appreciation Portfolio of Greenwich
Street Series Fund and Select High Growth Portfolio, Select Growth
Portfolio, Select Balanced Portfolio, Select Conservative Portfolio and
Select Income Portfolio of Smith Barney Concert Allocation Series Inc.
Travelers Series Fund Inc. and Smith Barney Concert Allocation Series Inc.
are incorporated under Maryland law. The Travelers Series Trust and
Greenwich Street Series Fund are registered as Massachusetts business
trusts. All eligible funds are managed by affiliates of The Travelers. Not
all funds may be available in all states or to all contract owners.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by Separate Account PF in the preparation of its financial
statements.
SECURITY VALUATION. Investments are valued daily at the net asset values per
share of the underlying funds.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for on the trade
date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The operations of Separate Account PF form a part of
the total operations of The Travelers and are not taxed separately. The
Travelers is taxed as a life insurance company under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under existing federal income tax
law, no taxes are payable on the investment income of Separate Account PF.
Separate Account PF is not taxed as a "regulated investment company" under
Subchapter M of the Code.
OTHER. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. INVESTMENTS
The aggregate costs of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments were
$30,179,311 and $735,109, respectively, for the period ended December 31,
1998. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are reported on
an identified cost basis. The cost of investments in eligible funds was
$29,426,041 at December 31, 1998. Gross unrealized appreciation for all
investments at December 31, 1998 was $2,365,493.
3. CONTRACT CHARGES
Insurance charges are paid for the mortality and expense risks assumed by
The Travelers. These charges are equivalent to 1.25% of the average net
assets of Separate Account PF on an annual basis.
Administrative fees are paid for administrative expenses incurred by The
Travelers. This charge is equivalent to 0.15% of the average net assets of
Separate Account PF on an annual basis.
For contracts in the accumulation phase, an annual charge of $30 (prorated
for partial periods) is deducted from participant account balances and paid
to The Travelers to cover contract administrative charges.
No sales charge is deducted from participant purchase payments when they are
received. However, The Travelers generally assesses a contingent deferred
sales charge of up to 8% if a participant's purchase payment is surrendered
within eight years of its payment date. Contract surrender payments include
$13,758 of contingent deferred sales charges for the period ended December
31, 1998.

and the related statement of operations and changes in net assets for the period
July 9, 1998 (date operations commenced) to December 31, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards 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. Our procedures included
confirmation of shares owned as of December 31, 1998, by correspondence with the
underlying funds. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of The Travelers Separate Account
PF for Variable Annuities as of December 31, 1998, the results of its operations
and the changes in its net assets for the period July 9, 1998 (date operations
