Note 1.    General.

        The  accompanying  unaudited  condensed  financial  statements have been
prepared by the  Partnership in accordance  with generally  accepted  accounting
principles, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In the opinion of Management,  all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been
included. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make
the information  presented not misleading,  it is suggested that these condensed
financial  statements be read in conjunction  with the financial  statements and
the notes included in the Partnership's  Financial Statement,  as filed with the
SEC in the latest annual report on Form 10-K.

Note 2.    Reclassification.

        Reclassification  -  Certain  1995  amounts  have been  reclassified  to
conform to the 1996 presentation.

Note 3.    Income Taxes.

        Federal  and state  income  tax  regulations  provide  that taxes on the
income  or loss of the  Partnership  are  reportable  by the  partners  in their
individual income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes has been
made in the accompanying financial statements.

Note 4.    Notes Receivable.

           Impaired Notes Receivable.  At June 30, 1996, the recorded investment
in notes that are considered to be impaired under  Statement No. 114 was $23,000
for which there is no related  allowance.  The average  recorded  investment  in
impaired  loans  during the six months  ended  June 30,  1996 was  approximately
$23,000.

Note 5.    Net Income (Loss) and Distributions per Limited Partnership Unit.

        Net income and distributions per limited  partnership unit were based on
the limited  partners' share of net income and  distributions,  and the weighted
average  number of units  outstanding  of 87,480  and  88,550  for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

                     PHOENIX LEASING CAPITAL ASSURANCE FUND

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations.

Results of Operations

        Phoenix Leasing Capital  Assurance Fund (the  Partnership)  reported net
income of $462,000  during the three months ended June 30, 1996,  as compared to
net income of $441,000  during the same  period in 1995.  Net income for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 was  $880,000,  as compared to net income of $853,000
during the same period in 1995.

        Total revenues  increased by $12,000 and $8,000 during the three and six
months  ended June 30,  1996,  when  compared to the same  periods in 1995.  The
increase in total revenues is  attributable  to the  Partnership  recognizing an
increase in income from the  accretion of its zero coupon bonds during the three
and six months ended June 30, 1996, as compared to the same periods in 1995. The
income from these zero coupon  bonds is expected to increase  over their life so
that the  carrying  value will equal the face value at the  maturity  date.  The
Partnership did not recognize any gains or losses from the early  liquidation of
zero  coupon  bonds  during  1996,  as  compared to a loss from the sale of zero
coupon bonds during 1995.

        Rental  income  continues  to decline due to a decrease in the amount of
equipment  owned  by  the  Partnership.  The  Partnership  is  currently  in its
liquidation  stage,  as a result it is not  expected to acquire  any  additional
equipment for lease. At June 30, 1996, the  Partnership  owned equipment with an
aggregate original cost of $1.1 million, as compared to $2.1 million at June 30,
1995.

        Total expenses  decreased by $9,000 and $19,000 during the three and six
months  ended June 30, 1996,  as compared to the same  periods in 1995.  This is
primarily due to decreases in most expense items except for legal expense, which
is  primarily  the  result  of an  outstanding  note  receivable  from  a  cable
television system operator that is in default.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The Partnership's primary source of liquidity is its investments in zero
coupon bonds.  The  Partnership  has also made  significant  investments in zero
coupon bonds.  It is the intention of the  Partnership to hold these bonds until
maturity or to the end of the Partnership's  term,  whichever occurs first. Upon
termination of the Partnership,  the Partnership will use the proceeds  received
upon  maturity  or sale of  these  bonds  to  make a final  distribution  to the
partners.

        As  another  source of  liquidity,  the  Partnership  has  entered  into
contractual  obligations  with  lessees for fixed  lease  terms at fixed  rental
amounts.  As the initial  lease  terms  expire on the  Partnership's  short term
operating  leases,   the  Partnership  will  re-lease  or  sell  the  underlying
equipment.  The future liquidity of the Partnership will depend upon the General
Partner's success in collecting  contractual  amounts, as well as re-leasing and
selling the equipment upon expiration of the lease.

        The  Partnership  reported  net cash  provided by leasing and  financing
activities  of $10,000 and  $120,000  for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995,  respectively.  The decrease in 1996 is primarily the result of a decrease
in rental income.

        The Partnership  paid Limited Partner  redemptions of $61,000 during the
six months ended June 30, 1996, as compared to  redemptions  of $475,000  during

                                                                     Page 7 of 9


the same period in 1995. As a result,  the  Partnership  also reported  proceeds
from the maturity of zero coupon bonds of $1,100,000 during the six months ended
June 30,  1996,  as compared to proceeds  from the sale of zero coupon  bonds of
$626,000 during the same period in 1995.  During 1995, the Partnership sold some
of its zero coupon bonds in order to generate sufficient cash to pay redemptions
to limited partners.

        As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership owned equipment held for lease with
a purchase  price of $523,000  and a net book value of $0,  compared to $842,000
and $0 at June 30, 1995. The General Partner is actively  engaged,  on behalf of
the  Partnership,   in  remarketing  and  selling  the  Partnership's  off-lease
equipment portfolio.

        The Limited  Partners  received  cash  distributions  of $0 and $112,000
during the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  As a result,
the cumulative cash  distributions to the Limited Partners is $9,937,000 at both
June 30, 1996 and 1995. The General Partner  received cash  distributions  of $0
and $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

        The  next  distribution  to  partners  is  expected  to be  made  at the
termination of the Partnership. The amount of the distribution will be dependent
upon the amount of cash available for distribution  after the redemption or sale
of all the remaining assets,  which primarily consists of zero coupon bonds. The
Partnership will reach the end of its term on December 31, 1996.

        The  Partnership's  term will expire on December 31, 1996.  As a result,
the General  Partner is currently in the process of  liquidating  the  remaining
assets of the  Partnership.  The General Partner is in the process of evaluating
the  remaining  assets of the  Partnership  in order to  liquidate  them through
public auction. Once the assets have been liquidated,  the Partnership will make
a final distribution to the partners.  The General Partner plans to complete the
liquidation of the Partnership by December 31, 1996.

        Cash  generated  from leasing and financing  operations  has been and is
anticipated  to continue to be sufficient to meet the  Partnership's  continuing
operational expenses.
