ALLIANZ LIFE VARIABLE ACCOUNT B
OF ALLIANZ LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NORTH AMERICA
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1997 (unaudited)

1. Organization

Allianz Life Variable  Account B (Variable  Account) is a segregated  investment
account of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz Life) and is
registered  with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission as a unit  investment
trust  pursuant  to the  provisions  of the  Investment  Company Act of 1940 (as
amended).  The Variable  Account was  established  on May 31, 1985 and commenced
operations January 24, 1989. Accordingly, it is an accounting entity wherein all
segregated account transactions are reflected.

The Variable  Account's assets are the property of Allianz Life and are held for
the benefit of the owners and other persons  entitled to payments under variable
annuity  contracts  issued  through the  Variable  Account and  underwritten  by
Allianz  Life.  The assets of the  Variable  Account,  equal to the reserves and
other liabilities of the Variable  Account,  are not chargeable with liabilities
that arise from any other business which Allianz Life may conduct.

The Variable  Account's  sub-accounts may invest, at net asset values, in one or
more of the funds of the Franklin  Valuemark  Funds  (FVF),  managed by Franklin
Advisers, Inc. and its Templeton and Franklin affiliates, in accordance with the
selection made by the contract owner.  Not all funds are available as investment
options for the products which comprise the Variable Account.

Certain  officers and trustees of the FVF are also officers and/or  directors of
Franklin Advisers, Inc. and/or Allianz Life.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

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.

Investments

Investments  of the Variable  Account are valued daily at market value using net
asset values provided by Franklin Advisers, Inc.

Realized investment gains include realized gain distributions  received from the
respective  funds and  gains on the sale of fund  shares  as  determined  by the
average  cost  method.   Realized  gain  distributions  are  reinvested  in  the
respective funds. Dividend distributions received from the FVF are reinvested in
additional  shares of the FVF and are recorded as income to the Variable Account
on the ex-dividend date.

Two Fixed Account  investment options are available to deferred annuity contract
owners.  A Flexible Fixed Option is available to all deferred  annuity  contract
owners and a Dollar Cost Averaging  Option is available to Valuemark IV deferred
annuity contract owners. These accounts are comprised of equity and fixed income
investments  which  are  part  of  the  general  assets  of  Allianz  Life.  The
liabilities of the Fixed Accounts are part of the general obligations of Allianz
Life and are not included in the Variable Account.  The guaranteed  minimum rate
of return on the Fixed Accounts is 3%.

The Capital Growth Fund and Templeton  International Smaller Companies Fund were
added as  available  investment  options  on May 1, 1996.  The Mutual  Discovery
Securities  Fund and  Mutual  Shares  Securities  Fund were  added as  available
investment  options on November 8, 1996. The Investment Grade  Intermediate Bond
Fund and Adjustable  U.S.  Government  Fund were closed on October 25, 1996 when
shares of the U.S. Government Securities Fund were substituted for all shares of
both funds.

On May 1, 1996,  the Global  Income  Fund name was changed to  Templeton  Global
Income  Securities  Fund.  The Precious  Metals Fund name was changed to Natural
Resources Securities Fund on May 1, 1997.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Contracts in Annuity Payment Period

Annuity reserves are computed for currently payable  contracts  according to the
1983 Individual  Annuity  Mortality Table,  using an assumed  investment  return
(AIR) equal to the AIR of the specific  contracts,  either 3% or 5%.  Charges to
annuity  reserves for mortality and risk expense are  reimbursed to Allianz Life
if the  reserves  required are less than  originally  estimated.  If  additional
reserves are required, Allianz Life reimburses the account.

Expenses

Asset Based Expenses

A mortality and expense risk charge is deducted  from the Variable  Account on a
daily basis.  The charge is equal, on an annual basis, to 1.25% of the daily net
assets of Valuemark II,  Valuemark  III, and Valuemark  Income Plus and 1.34% of
the daily net assets of Valuemark IV.

An administrative  charge is deducted from the Variable Account on a daily basis
equal,  on an annual  basis,  to 0.15% of the daily net  assets of all  products
which comprise the Variable Account.

Contract Based Expenses

A contract  maintenance  charge is paid by the contract owner annually from each
deferred  annuity  contract  by  liquidating  contract  units  at the end of the
contract year and at the time of full surrender. The amount of the charge is $30
each year.  Contract  maintenance charges paid by the contract owners during the
period ended June 30, 1997 (unaudited) and the year ended December 31, 1996 were
$2,370,119 and $4,491,487, respectively. These contract charges are reflected in
the Statements of Changes in Net Assets as other transactions.

A contingent  deferred  sales charge is deducted from the contract  value at the
time of a  surrender.  This  charge  applies  only to a  surrender  of  purchase
payments  received  within five years of the date of surrender  for Valuemark II
and  Valuemark III contracts and within seven years of the date of surrender for
Valuemark IV contracts.  For this purpose,  purchase payments are allocated on a
first-in, first-out basis. The amount of the contingent deferred sales charge is
calculated by: (a) allocating purchase payments to the amount  surrendered;  and
(b)  multiplying  each allocated  purchase  payment that has been held under the
contract for the period shown below by the charge shown below:

                              Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
Years Since           -----------------------------------------------

   3-4                       3%            3%             5%
   4-5                      1.5%          1.5%            4%
   5-6                       0%            0%             3%

    7+                       0%            0%             0%

and (c) adding the products of each multiplication in (b) above.

A Valuemark II or Valuemark III deferred  annuity  contract  owner may, not more
frequently  than once  annually on a  cumulative  basis,  make a surrender  each
contract year of fifteen percent (15%) of purchase payments paid, less any prior
surrenders, without incurring a contingent deferred sales charge. A Valuemark IV
deferred  annuity contract owner may make multiple  surrenders,  each year after
the first  contract  year,  up to fifteen  percent  (15%) of the contract  value
without incurring a contingent  deferred sales charge.  For a partial surrender,
the  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  will be  deducted  from the  remaining
contract  value,  if  sufficient;  otherwise it will be deducted from the amount
surrendered. Total contingent deferred sales charges paid by the contract owners
for the period ended June 30, 1997  (unaudited)  and the year ended December 31,
1996 were $4,688,856 and $10,529,337, respectively.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Contract Based Expenses (cont.)

Currently,  twelve transfers are permitted each contract year.  Thereafter,  the
fee is $25 per transfer,  or 2% of the amount transferred,  if less.  Currently,
transfers  associated  with the dollar cost  averaging  program are not counted.
Total transfer charges paid by the contract owners for the period ended June 30,
1997  (unaudited) and the year ended December 31, 1996 were $53,071 and $93,255,
respectively. Transfer charges are reflected in the Statements of Changes in Net
Assets as other  transactions.  Net  transfers  from the Fixed  Accounts for the
period ended June 30, 1997  (unaudited)  were  $8,058,767.  Net transfers to the
Fixed Accounts were $16,138,672 during the year ended December 31, 1996.

Premium  taxes or other taxes  payable to a state or other  governmental  entity
will be charged  against  the  contract  values.  Allianz  Life may, in its sole
discretion, pay taxes when due and deduct that amount from the contract value at
a later date.  Payment at an earlier date does not waive any right  Allianz Life
may have to deduct such amounts at a later date.

On  Valuemark II and  Valuemark  III deferred  annuity  contracts,  a systematic
withdrawal  plan is  available  which  allows  an owner to  withdraw  up to nine
percent (9%) of purchase payments less prior surrenders  annually,  paid monthly
or  quarterly,  without  incurring  a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge.  The
systematic  withdrawal plan available to Valuemark IV deferred  annuity contract
owners  allows up to  fifteen  percent  (15%) of the  contract  value  withdrawn
annually,  paid monthly or quarterly,  without  incurring a contingent  deferred
sales charge.  The exercise of the  systematic  withdrawal  plan in any contract
year  replaces  the 15% penalty  free  privilege  for that year for all deferred
annuity contracts.

A  rescission  is defined as a contract  that is  returned to the Company by the
Contract Owner and canceled  within the free-look  period,  generally  within 10
days.

3. Capitalization

Allianz Life provides  capital for the  establishment of new funds as investment
options  of the  Variable  Account.  There were no  capitalization  transactions
during  the  period  ended  June  30,  1997  (unaudited).   The   capitalization
transactions were as follows during the year ended December 31, 1996:

                       Capitalization    Date of      Market Value    Date of

4. Federal Income Taxes

Operations  of the  Variable  Account  form a  part  of,  and  are  taxed  with,
operations of Allianz Life, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the
Internal Revenue Code.

Allianz Life does not expect to incur any federal  income taxes in the operation
of the Variable  Account.  If, in the future,  Allianz Life  determines that the
Variable  Account may incur federal  income  taxes,  it may then assess a charge
against the Variable Account for such taxes.
