         or more eligible funds in accordance with the selection made by the
         contract owner.  As of December 31, 1995, the eligible funds available
         under Fund BD are: Alliance Growth Portfolio, American Capital
         Enterprise Portfolio, TBC Managed Income Portfolio, G.T. Global
         Strategic Income Portfolio, Smith Barney High Income Portfolio, Smith
         Barney International Equity Portfolio, Smith Barney Income and Growth
         Portfolio, Smith Barney Money Market Portfolio, Putnam Diversified
         Income Portfolio, Smith Barney Pacific Basin Portfolio, MFS Total
         Return Portfolio, and AIM Capital Appreciation Portfolio of Smith
         Barney/Travelers Series Fund Inc.; and Total Return Portfolio of Smith
         Barney Series Fund.  Smith Barney/Travelers Series Fund Inc. is
         incorporated under Maryland law.  Smith Barney Series Fund is
         registered as a Massachusetts business trust.  Both Funds are managed
         by Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc., an indirect wholly owned
         subsidiary of Travelers Group Inc.

         The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
         consistently followed by Fund BD in the preparation of its financial
         statements.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
         conform to the current year's presentation.

         SECURITY VALUATION.  Investments are valued daily at the net asset
         values per share of the underlying funds.

         FEDERAL INCOME TAXES.  The operations of Fund BD 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 Fund
         BD.  Fund BD 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.

         Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date.  Dividend
         income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

2.       INVESTMENTS

         Purchases and sales of investments aggregated $436,168,475 and
         $14,726,653, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1995.
         Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are reported on
         an identified cost basis.  The cost of investments in eligible funds
         was $529,394,484 at December 31, 1995.  Gross unrealized appreciation
         for all investments at December 31, 1995 was $33,750,400.  Gross
         unrealized depreciation for all investments at December 31, 1995 was
         $664,375.

3.       CONTRACT CHARGES

         Insurance charges are paid to The Travelers for the mortality and
         expense risks assumed by The Travelers.  For contracts with a standard
         death benefit provision, these charges are equivalent to 1.02% of the
         average net assets of Fund BD on an annual basis.  For contracts with
         an enhanced death benefit provision, these charges are equivalent to
         1.30% of the average net assets of Fund BD on an annual basis.

         For contracts in the accumulation phase with a contract value less
         than $40,000, 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.

         Administrative fees are paid to The Travelers for administrative
         expenses incurred by The Travelers. This charge is equivalent to 0.15%
         of the average net assets of Fund BD on an annual basis.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

         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 6% if a participant's
         purchase payment is surrendered within six years of its payment date.
         Contract surrender payments are stated prior to the deduction of
         $159,900 and $70 of contingent deferred sales charges for the year
         ended December 31, 1995 and the period June 20, 1994 (date operations
         commenced) to December 31, 1994, respectively.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Owners of Variable Annuity Contracts of
    The Travelers Fund BD for Variable Annuities:


We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of The
Travelers Fund BD for Variable Annuities as of December 31, 1995, and the
related statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statement of
changes in net assets for each of the applicable periods ended December 31,
1995 and 1994.  These financial statements are the responsibility of
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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, 1995, 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 audits provide 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 Fund BD for
Variable Annuities as of December 31, 1995, the results of its operations for
the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets for each of the
applicable periods ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
