Dear Fellow Contract Owner:
After posting many excellent gains through year-end and well into January,
the stock market has, as of this writing, contracted a case of the jitters. An
important contributor has been uncertainty about the direction of interest rates
with a growing bias toward the upside. The financial markets thought they
noticed signs of vigor in the overall economy and were increasingly concerned
about the effect rising commodity prices might have on future inflation. Gross
domestic product, which measures our economy's momentum, gained strength.
Despite some instability in equity prices, dips in the market have remained
modest by historical standards. Although market buoyancy can cause sleeplessness
for some investors, it can also afford opportunities that can add value to our
funds.
The economy is growing and inflation appears to be in check, which is an
encouraging climate for financial markets. Stocks should continue to provide
decent returns for investors with a long-term perspective, but it is important
to remember that the financial markets do not often go straight up as they did
in 1995. As of this date, it is difficult to tell if the market correction has
run its course. However, good markets never continue forever without some
unexpected, temporary interruption.
On July 1st we launched our new Internet Web site at
"WWW.TOUCHSTONEFUNDS.COM" to help keep Touchstone shareholders, contract owners,
investment professionals and potential investors better informed. With the click
of a mouse, Internet users can explore specific Touchstone mutual fund or
variable annuity products (including prices), read about portfolio managers, and
even begin to create hypothetical investment strategies and model portfolios.
The site also allows users to become familiar with Touchstone through reprints
of news articles from major financial publications.
Providing easy-to-use navigation tools, quick-loading graphics and valuable
information, the site incorporates the best aspects of a Web site. Touchstone
believes that technology is a valuable tool for our clients, and a Web site is a
natural tool for Touchstone to create to ensure we our meeting our clients'
needs.
Thank you for your continued confidence and investment in the Touchstone
Family of Funds and Variable Annuities.
Sincerely,
/s/ EDWARD G. HARNESS

TOUCHSTONE II EMERGING GROWTH SUB-ACCOUNT
Over the course of the six months ended June 30, 1996, several investment
management strategies and techniques materially affected Touchstone II Emerging
Growth Sub-Account's performance. Small capitalization stocks, as measured by
the Russell 2000, rose 10.4% while the total return (net of fees and expenses)
for the Touchstone II Emerging Growth Sub-Account was 9.4%.
As the value-style manager of the Touchstone Emerging Growth Portfolio,
David L. Babson's value oriented expertise yielded solid performance during the
very strong growth market that occurred in the first half of 1996. While several
of their holdings fell temporarily out of favor with Wall Street, Babson still
liked the fundamentals of these stories and has used these opportunities to add
to their positions. Babson believed the portfolio was well positioned should the
market experience any slow down or correction.
As the growth-style manager of the Touchstone Emerging Growth Portfolio,
Westfield Capital Management continued to find companies with good growth
prospects selling at less than one times their growth rate. Their emphasis on
growth stocks has been consistent with their long held belief that over the
longer term emerging growth stocks outperform their larger cap counterparts.
Current market conditions have enabled Westfield to buy high quality growth
stocks of individual companies that are still at reasonable valuations.

TOUCHSTONE II INTERNATIONAL EQUITY SUB-ACCOUNT
Over the course of the six months ended June 30, 1996, several investment
management strategies and techniques materially affected the Touchstone II
International Equity Sub-Account's performance. International equity stocks, as
measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, rose 4.7% while the total return (net of fees
and expenses) for the Touchstone II International Equity Sub-Account was 8.2%.
As the international equity manager of the Touchstone International Equity
Portfolio, BEA Associates attributes the Portfolio's performance to two factors:
(1)strong stock selection in Europe, especially in France, Italy, Sweden and the
United Kingdom, and (2) the allocation of fund assets to emerging markets such
as Latin America and Israel.

TOUCHSTONE II GROWTH & INCOME SUB-ACCOUNT
Over the course of the six months ended June 30, 1996, several investment
management strategies and techniques materially affected the Touchstone II
Growth & Income Sub-Account's performance. Growth & Income stocks, as measured
by the S&P 500 Index, rose 10.1% while the total return (net of fees and
expenses) for the Touchstone II Growth & Income Sub-Account was 9.4%.
As the growth and income manager of the Touchstone Growth & Income Portfolio
II, Fort Washington Investment Advisors continued to employ a strategy of
staying fully invested in a highly diversified portfolio. The stock picking
emphasis was on out-of-favor stocks with stable to improving fundamentals.
Throughout the semiannual period, the portfolio consisted primarily of large
capitalization stocks, but also contained some representation of mid and small
capitalization stocks that met their out-of-favor screen. Areas of emphasis were
(1) financial services, which were thought to have attractive valuations, good
dividend support and good earnings prospects relative to the market, (2) health
care, which was out-of-favor as investors focused on more economically sensitive
issues, and (3) restructuring companies with significant stock buyback plans.

TOUCHSTONE II BALANCED SUB-ACCOUNT
Over the course of the six months ended June 30, 1996, several investment
management strategies and techniques materially affected the Touchstone II
Balanced Sub-Account's performance. Growth and value stocks, as measured by the
S&P 500 Index, rose 10.1% and government and corporate bonds, as measured by the
Lehman Brothers Government/ Corporate Index declined 1.9% while the total return
(net of fees and expenses) for the Touchstone II Balanced Sub-Account was 4.4%.
As the core equity manager of the Touchstone Balanced Portfolio, Harbor
Capital Management continued to focus on the technology and financial sectors.
In both sectors the largest holdings have been in high-quality, multi-national
market leader growth companies such as Intel and Microsoft and value stocks such
as Citicorp, Chase Manhattan and Travelers.
As the fixed income manager of the Touchstone Balanced Portfolio, Morgan
Grenfell Capital Management remained focused on issue selection, believing this
to be the best way to consistently add value in the fixed income markets over
time. The portfolio was well diversified among sectors, issues and maturities
and was comprised of high quality securities that Morgan Grenfell believed
offered superior total return prospects over a variety of market scenarios.
Their holdings were in well structured mortgage-backed securities that have
particularly benefited during this semiannual period of rising interest rates.
Morgan Grenfell continued to favor taxable municipal bonds over generic
corporate issues, believing that they offer superior return prospects.

TOUCHSTONE II INCOME OPPORTUNITY SUB-ACCOUNT
Over the course of the six months ended June 30, 1996, several investment
management strategies and techniques materially affected the Touchstone II
Income Opportunity Sub-Account's performance. Corporate high yield bonds, as
measured by the CDA/ Wiesenberger Corporate High Yield Variable Annuity Average,
rose 4.4%; international bonds, as measured by the CDA/Wiesenberger
International Bond Variable Annuity Average rose 1.1% while corporate bonds in
general, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Corporate Bond Index, declined 2.1%.
Total return (net of fees and expenses) for the Touchstone II Income Opportunity
Sub-Account was 11.9%.
As the manager of the Touchstone Income Opportunity Portfolio, Alliance
Capital Management continued to concentrate its investment activity on U.S. high
yield bonds, emerging markets "Brady" bonds and emerging markets corporate debt
during the first half of 1996. However, investments in U.S. high yield corporate
bonds were increased at the expense of emerging markets corporate debt as the
yield to maturity differential between the two asset classes declined
significantly. In a related move, emerging markets sovereign debt was emphasized
at the expense of emerging markets corporate debt due to continued spread
tightening.

Over the course of the six months ended June 30, 1996, several investment

Sub-Account's performance. Corporate bonds, as measured by the Lehman Brothers
Aggregate Index, declined 1.2% while the return of the CDA/ Wiesenberger
Corporate Bond Variable Annuity Average declined 1.4%. Total return (net of fees
and expenses) for the Touchstone II Bond Sub-Account was (2.3%).
As the core fixed income manager of the Touchstone Bond Portfolio II, Fort
Washington Investment Advisors continued its strategy of maintaining a very high
quality portfolio with a bias towards high current yield. In order to create
this defensive posture within the portfolio, high grade corporate and asset
backed securities continued to be over-weighted versus the index. Maturities
were concentrated in the intermediate part of the yield curve, and the portfolio
continued to be fully invested with cash levels of approximately 5%.

TOUCHSTONE II STANDBY INCOME SUB-ACCOUNT
Over the course of the six months ended June 30, 1996, several investment
management strategies and techniques materially affected the Touchstone II
Standby Income Sub-Account's performance. Cash equivalents, as measured by the
Merrill Lynch 91-Day Treasury Index, rose 2.5% while the return of the IBC
Donoghue Money Market Index rose equally by 2.5%. Total return (net of fees and
expenses, but excluding surrender charges) for the Touchstone II Standby Income
Sub-Account was 2.1%.
As the ultra-short fixed income manager of the Touchstone Standby Income
Portfolio, Fort Washington Investment Advisors maintained its core strategy
throughout the semiannual period. In response to rising interest rates, Fort
Washington cut the average duration of its holdings from 0.5 years to 0.2 years.
This shortening was accomplished by selling longer dated corporate and asset
backed securities and rotating into the commercial paper sector. This strategy
protected principal, made the portfolio more liquid and allowed Fort Washington
to reinvest at higher rates as they became available.

WESTERN-SOUTHERN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY SEPARATE ACCOUNT 2
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION
Western-Southern Life Assurance Company Separate Account 2 (the "Account")
is a unit investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
(the "1940 Act"), established by Western-Southern Life Assurance Company (the
"Company"), a life insurance company which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
Western and Southern Life Insurance Company. The Account is a funding vehicle
for individual variable annuity contracts, and commenced operations on February
23, 1995.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Account has seven investment Sub-Accounts each of which invests in the
corresponding portfolio (a "Portfolio") of Select Advisors Variable Insurance
Trust or of Select Advisors Portfolios, each of which is an open-ended
diversified management investment company. A contractholder may also allocate
funds to the Fixed Account, which is part of the general account of the Company.
Due to exemptive and exclusionary provisions, interests in the Fixed Account
have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Company's
general account has not been registered as an investment company under the 1940
Act. Sub-Account transactions are recorded on the trade date and income from
dividends is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on the
sales of investments are computed on the basis of specific identification.
3. CONTRACT CHARGES
Certain deductions for administrative and risk charges are deducted from the
contract value, in order to compensate the Company for administrative expenses
and for the assumption of mortality and expense risks. These charges are made
daily at an annual effective rate of 0.80%.
The Company also deducts an annual contract maintenance charge of $35 from
the contract value on each contract anniversary and upon any full surrender.
4. TAXES
For federal income tax purposes, the Account's operations are included with
those of the Company. The Company intends to make appropriate charges against
the Account in the future if and when tax liabilities arise.
5. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS
The following table shows aggregate cost of shares and beneficial interests

SELECT ADVISORS VARIABLE INSURANCE TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Select Advisors Variable Insurance Trust (the "Trust") is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended as an open-end management
investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust on February 7,
1994. The Trust consists of five Portfolios: Emerging Growth Portfolio,
International Equity Portfolio, Balanced Portfolio, Income Opportunity Portfolio
and Standby Income Portfolio ("Portfolios").
The initial capital contributions of $1,999,920 to the Emerging Growth
Portfolio, the Balanced Portfolio, and the Income Opportunity Portfolio, and the
initial capital contributions of $4,999,920 to the International Equity
Portfolio and the Standby Income Portfolio were made by Western-Southern Life
Assurance Company ("Western-Southern").
The Trust offers shares of beneficial interest of each portfolio to separate
accounts of Western-Southern as a funding vehicle for certain variable annuity
contracts issued by Western-Southern through the separate accounts.
The accounting policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) for investment companies. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the related amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the
Portfolios:
a) INVESTMENT VALUATION. The value of each security for which readily
available market quotations exist is based on a decision as to the broadest and
most representative market for such security. The value of such security will be
based either on the last sale price on a national securities exchange, or, in
the absence of recorded sales, at the readily available closing bid price on
such exchanges, or at the quoted bid price in the over-the-counter market.
Securities listed on foreign exchanges are valued at the last quoted sale price
available before the net assets are valued. Unlisted securities are valued at
the average of the quoted bid and asked prices in the over-the-counter market.
Debt securities are valued by a pricing service which determines valuations
based upon market transactions for normal, institutional-size trading units of
similar securities. Securities or other assets for which market quotations are
not readily available are valued at fair value in good faith in accordance with
procedures established by the Trustees. Such procedures include the use of
independent pricing services, which use prices based upon yields or prices of
securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to
values from dealers; and general market conditions. All debt securities with a
remaining maturity of less than 60 days are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market.
b) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the Portfolios
are maintained in U.S. dollars. The market value of investment securities, other
assets and liabilities and forward contracts denominated in foreign currencies
are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates at the end of
the period. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts, and expense
payments are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates
of such transactions. Reported net realized gains and losses on foreign currency
transactions represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and
the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S.
dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statement
of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of these securities,
but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
investments.
c) INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date
except that certain dividends from foreign securities where ex-dividend date has
passed are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date.
Interest income, which includes the amortization of premium and accretion of
discount, if any, is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend and interest income
is recorded net of foreign taxes where recovery of such taxes is not assured.
d) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. Distributions to shareholders for the
Emerging Growth Portfolio, International Equity Portfolio, Balanced Portfolio,
and Income Opportunity Portfolio are recorded by the Portfolio on the
ex-dividend date. It is the policy of the Standby Income Portfolio to record
income dividends daily and distribute them monthly. Distributions to
shareholders of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid
annually.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Undistributed
net investment income may include temporary book and tax basis differences which
will reverse in a subsequent period.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
e) FEDERAL TAXES. Each Portfolio of the Trust is treated as a separate
entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Portfolio's policy is to comply
with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable
to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all its
income, including net realized capital gains, if any, within the prescribed time
periods. Accordingly, no provision for a federal income tax is necessary. The
following Portfolios have capital loss carryforwards expiring December 2003.
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
International Equity Portfolio $ 179,311
Income Opportunity Portfolio 54,524
Standby Income Portfolio 3,311
</TABLE>
f) FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS. Each Portfolio may enter into forward
foreign currency contracts to protect securities and related receivables and
payables against fluctuations in foreign currency rates. A forward contract is
an agreement to buy or sell currencies of different countries on a specified
future date at a specified rate.
Risks associated with such contracts include the movement in the value of
the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the
counterparty to perform. The market value of the contract will fluctuate with
changes in currency exchange rates. Contracts are valued daily based on
procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees of
the Portfolio Trust and the change in the market value is recorded by the
Portfolios as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of forward foreign
currency contracts. As of June 30, 1996, the Touchstone International Equity
Portfolio had an open forward foreign currency contract to deliver $17,824 on
July 2, 1996, in exchange for L11,499. As of June 30, 1996, the market value of
this contract was $17,859, resulting in unrealized appreciation of $35.
g) ORGANIZATION EXPENSE. Organization expenses were deferred and are being
amortized by each Portfolio on a straight-line basis over a five-year period
from commencement of operations. Each Portfolio's organizational fees payable
includes fees and expenses payable to Touchstone Advisors, Inc., a subsidiary of
Western-Southern, of $18,141 ($18,271 for Standby Income Portfolio). The amount
paid by the Trust on any redemption by Touchstone Advisors, Inc. or, any other
then-current holder of the organizational seed capital shares ("Initial Shares")
of the Portfolio, will be reduced by a portion of any unamortized organization
expenses of the Portfolio determined by the proportion of the number of the
Initial Shares of the Portfolio redeemed to the number of the Initial Shares of
the Portfolio outstanding after taking into account any prior redemptions of the
Initial Shares of the Portfolio.
h) OTHER. Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. For
financial and tax reporting purposes, realized gains and losses are determined
on the basis of specific lot identification.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
a) SPONSOR. Touchstone Advisors, Inc. ("Sponsor"), a subsidiary of
Western-Southern, as sponsor to the Trust, pursuant to a Sponsor Agreement
provides oversight of the various service providers to the Trust, including the
Trust's Administrator, Custodian and Transfer Agent. As Sponsor to the Trust,
Touchstone Advisors reserves the right to receive a sponsor fee from each
portfolio on an annual basis up to 0.20% of average daily net assets of that
Portfolio for its then-current fiscal year. The Sponsor Agreement may be
terminated by the Sponsor or by the Trust on not less than 30 days prior written
notice. The Sponsor has advised the Trust that it will waive all fees under the
Sponsor Agreement through April 30, 1997.
b) INVESTMENT ADVISOR. The Trust has an investment advisory agreement with
the Sponsor. Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, each
Portfolio pays an investment advisory fee that is computed daily and paid
monthly. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, each Portfolio incurred the
following investment advisory fees equal on an annual basis to the following
percentages of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio.

c) ADMINISTRATOR AND FUND ACCOUNTANT. The Trust retains Signature
Financial Services, Inc. ("Signature") to serve as administrator and fund
accountant. Certain officers of Signature serve as officers of the Portfolios.
Signature provides administrative services necessary for the operations of the
Portfolios, including the preparation and filing of all documents required by
the Trust for compliance with applicable laws and regulations; arranging for the
maintenance of books, records and custody of the Portfolios; and paying the
compensation of the Portfolios' officers affiliated with Signature. For these
services, Signature receives from each Portfolio a fee that is computed daily
and paid monthly, equal on an annual basis to 0.16% of the aggregate average
daily net assets of all the Portfolios. Rates are reduced on a sliding scale
when combined average net assets of all Portfolios exceed $100 million. In
addition, each Portfolio is subject to a minimum annual fee of $25,000 plus
out-of-pocket expenses.
d) TRUSTEES. Each Trustee who is not an "interested person," (as defined
in the Act), of the Trust, receives in aggregate $5,000 annually plus $1,000 per
meeting attended, as well as reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses, from the Trust and from Select Advisors Trust A, Select Advisors Trust
C, and Select Advisors Portfolios, which are included in separate reports.
3. EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENTS
The Sponsor has agreed to waive fees and reimburse each Portfolio so that,
following such waiver of fees and reimbursement, the aggregate total operating
expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary
expenses) of each Portfolio are not greater, on an annualized basis, than the
percentage of average daily net assets of the Portfolio listed below.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Select Advisors Portfolios (the "Portfolio Trust") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment
company organized as a New York master trust fund on February 7, 1994. There are
nine subtrusts of the Portfolio Trust (each a "Portfolio"), each having distinct
investment objectives and policies. The Portfolios are Emerging Growth
Portfolio, International Equity Portfolio, Growth & Income Portfolio, Balanced
Portfolio, Income Opportunity Portfolio, Bond Portfolio, Municipal Bond
Portfolio, Growth & Income Portfolio II, and Bond Portfolio II. Only Growth &
Income Portfolio II and Bond Portfolio II are included in this report. The other
portfolios are included in a separate report.
The initial capital contributions of $10,000,000 to the Growth & Income
Portfolio II and the Bond Portfolio II were made by Western-Southern Life
Assurance Company ("Western-Southern").
The accounting policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP") for investment companies. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the related amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the
Portfolios:
a) INVESTMENT VALUATION. The value of each security for which readily
available market quotations exists is based on a decision as to the broadest and
most representative market for such security. The value of such security is
based either on the last sale price on a national securities exchange, or, in
the absence of recorded sales, at the readily available closing bid price on
such exchanges, or at the quoted bid price in the over-the-counter market.
Securities listed on foreign exchanges are valued at the last quoted sale price
available before the net assets are valued. Unlisted securities are valued at
the average of the quoted bid and asked prices in the over-the-counter market.
Debt securities are valued by a pricing service which determines valuations
based upon market transactions for normal, institutional-size trading units of
similar securities. Securities or other assets for which market quotations are
not readily available are valued at fair value in good faith in accordance with
procedures established by the Trustees of the Portfolio Trust. Such procedures
include the use of independent pricing services, which use prices based upon
yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type,
indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. All debt
securities with a remaining maturity of less than 60 days are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market.
b) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the Portfolios
are maintained in U.S. dollars. The market value of investment securities, other
assets and liabilities and forward contracts denominated in foreign currencies
are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates at the end of
the period. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts, and expense
payments are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates
of such transactions. Reported net realized gains and losses on foreign currency
transactions represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward
currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and
the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S.
dollar amount actually received.
The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in
securities are not segregated in the Statement of Operations from the effects of
changes in market prices of these securities, but are included with the net
realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
c) INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date
except that certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
has passed are recorded as soon as the Portfolio Trust is informed of the
ex-dividend date. Interest income, which includes the amortization of premium
and accretion of discount, if any, is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend and
interest income is recorded net of foreign taxes where recovery of such taxes is
not assured.
d) FEDERAL TAXES. Each Portfolio is treated as a partnership for federal
income tax purposes. As such, each investor in each Portfolio is subject to
taxation on its share of that Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains.
Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes. It is intended
that each Portfolio's assets will be managed in such a way that an investor in
the Portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
e) FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS. Each Portfolio may enter into forward
foreign currency contracts to protect securities and related receivables and
payables against fluctuations in foreign currency rates. A forward contract is
an agreement to buy or sell currencies of different countries on a specified
future date at a specified rate.
Risks associated with such contracts include the movement in the value of
the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the
counterparty to perform. The market value of the contract will fluctuate with
31
<PAGE>
SELECT ADVISORS PORTFOLIOS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
changes in currency exchange rates. Contracts are valued daily based on
procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees of
the Portfolio Trust and the change in the market value is recorded by the
Portfolio as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of forward foreign currency
contracts.
f) ORGANIZATION EXPENSE. Organization expenses were deferred and are being
amortized by each Portfolio on a straight-line basis over a five-year period
from commencement of operations. Each Fund's organizational fees payable
includes fees and expenses payable to Touchstone Advisors, Inc. of $39,924. The
amount paid by the Trust on any withdrawal by Touchstone Advisors, Inc. or any
other then-current holder of the Initial Interests in the Portfolio will be
reduced by a portion of any unamortized organization expenses of the Portfolio,
determined by the proportion of the amount of the Initial Interests in the
Portfolio withdrawn to the amount of the Initial Interests in the Portfolio then
outstanding after taking into account any prior withdrawals of the Initial
Interests in the Portfolio.
g) OTHER. Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. For
financial and tax reporting purposes, realized gains and losses are determined
on the basis of specific lot identification.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
a) SPONSOR. Touchstone Advisors, Inc. ("Sponsor"), a subsidiary of
Western-Southern, as sponsor to the Trust, pursuant to a Sponsor Agreement
provides oversight of the various service providers to the Trust, including the
Trust's Administrator, Custodian and Transfer Agent. As Sponsor to the Trust,
Touchstone Advisors reserves the right to receive a sponsor fee from each
portfolio equal on an annual basis to 0.20% of average daily net assets of that
Portfolio for its then-current fiscal year. The Sponsor Agreement may be
terminated by the Sponsor or by the Trust on not less than 30 days prior written
notice. The Sponsor has advised the Trust that it will waive all fees under the
Sponsor Agreement through April 30, 1997.
(b) INVESTMENT ADVISOR. The Portfolio Trust has an investment advisory
agreement with Touchstone Advisors, Inc. ("Advisor"), a subsidiary of
Western-Southern. Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, each
Portfolio pays an investment advisory fee that is computed daily and paid
monthly. Investment advisory fees to Growth & Income Portfolio II and Bond
Portfolio II are equal on an annual basis to 0.75% and 0.55%, respectively, of
the average daily net assets of each Portfolio.
Fort Washington Investment Advisors, Inc., an affiliate of the Advisor, is
the sub-advisor for the Growth & Income Portfolio II and the Bond Portfolio II.
(c) ADMINISTRATOR AND FUND ACCOUNTANT. The Portfolio Trust retains
Signature Financial Services, Inc. ("Signature") to serve as administrator and
fund accountant. Certain officers of Signature serve as officers of the
Portfolios. Signature provides administrative services necessary for the
operations of the Portfolios, including the preparation and filing of all
documents required by the Portfolio Trust for compliance with applicable laws
and regulations; arranging for the maintenance of books, records and custody of
the Portfolios; and paying the compensation of the Portfolio Trust's officers,
affiliated with Signature. For these services, Signature receives from each
Portfolio a fee that is computed daily and paid monthly equal on an annual basis
to 0.20% of the aggregate average daily net assets of the Portfolio Trust. Rates
are reduced on a sliding scale when the combined average net assets of the
Portfolio Trust exceed $100 million. In addition, each Portfolio is subject to a
minimum annual fee of $60,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses.
(d) TRUSTEES. Each Trustee who is not an "interested person," (as defined
in the Act), of the Portfolio Trust, receives in aggregate $5,000 annually plus
$1,000 per meeting attended, as well as, reimbursement for reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses from the Portfolio and from Select Advisors Trust A,
Select Advisors Trust C and Select Advisors Variable Insurance Trust.
3. EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT
The Sponsor has agreed to reimburse each Portfolio so that, following such
reimbursement the aggregate total operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes,
brokerage commission and extraordinary expenses) of each Portfolio are not
greater, on an annualized basis, than 0.85% and 0.75% of average daily net
assets of Growth & Income Portfolio II and Bond Portfolio II, respectively.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENT SECURITIES
For the period ended June 30, 1996, the cost of investment securities
purchased was $8,952,933 and $3,838,846, and the proceeds from sales of
investment securities sold were $7,540,149 and $3,353,400, for Growth & Income
Portfolio II and Bond Portfolio II, respectively, excluding U.S. government
obligations and short-term investments. Purchases and sales of U.S. government
obligations were $2,264,488 and $2,146,617, respectively, for Bond Portfolio II.
