                     THE TRAVELERS LIFE AND ANNUITY COMPANY
               Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

                                  June 30, 1995


1.   General

    The interim financial statements of The Travelers Life and Annuity Company
    (the Company), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Travelers Insurance Company
    (an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Travelers Group Inc.), have been
    prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
    and are unaudited. They reflect all adjustments (none of which were other
    than normal recurring adjustments) necessary, in the opinion of management,
    for a fair statement of results for the periods reported. The accompanying
    condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
    audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December
    31, 1994 included in the Company's Form S-2 registration statement filed
    July 11, 1995 (File No. 33-58677).

    Certain financial information that is normally included in financial
    statements prepared in accordance with GAAP but is not required for interim
    reporting purposes has been condensed or omitted.

2.  Changes in Accounting Principles

    Effective January 1, 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
    Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
    Loan", and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 118, "Accounting
    by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures,"
    which describe how impaired loans should be measured when determining the
    amount of a loan loss accrual. These statements amended existing guidance on
    the measurement of restructured loans in a troubled debt restructuring
    involving a modification of terms. Their adoption did not have a material
    impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or
    liquidity.

3.  Commitments and Contingencies

    The Company's TTM Modified Guaranteed Annuity Contracts are subject to a 
    limited guarantee agreement by The Travelers Insurance Company in a
    principal amount of up to $100 million. The obligation of The Travelers
    Insurance Company is to pay in full to any owner or beneficiary of the TTM
    Modified Guaranteed Annuity Contracts principal and interest as and when due
    under the annuity contract to the extent that the Company fails to make 
    such payment. 

    The Company is a defendant in various litigation matters. Although there can
    be no assurances, as of June 30, 1995, the Company believes, based on
    information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of these legal
    proceedings would not be likely to have a material adverse effect on its
    results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

                     THE TRAVELERS LIFE AND ANNUITY COMPANY

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

Management's narrative analysis of the results of operations is presented in
lieu of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations, pursuant to General Instruction H(2)(a) of Form 10-Q.

The Travelers Life and Annuity Company (the Company) primarily writes single
premium group annuity close-out contracts and individual structured settlement
annuities. The single premium group annuity contracts are typically purchased by
employer-sponsored pension plans upon termination of the plan, asset reversion
or other significant plan changes. As a result, sales activity can vary
significantly from period to period.

The individual structured settlement contracts are purchased by an affiliate,
The Travelers Indemnity Company, in connection with the settlement of certain of
its policyholder obligations. All structured settlement contracts are issued
through a separate account of the Company. Accordingly, the Company's other
revenues include structured settlement policyholder revenues net of the related
benefits and expenses.

The Company also writes a small amount of individual life insurance, which is
fully reinsured with The Travelers Insurance Company (the Company's parent).

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1995 was $4.0 million, compared to
$5.9 million for the same period in 1994. Excluding realized losses, operating
earnings increased from $5.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 1994 to
$7.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 1995, reflecting an increase in
retained investment margin and a reduction in current and future insurance
benefits.

Premiums and deposits amounted to $19.4 million for the six months ended June
30, 1995, a 24% decrease compared to the same period for 1994, reflecting a
decline in single premium group annuities and a small decline in structured
settlement sales. (Deposits relate to separate account receipts, and are thus 
excluded from revenue).

Policyholder benefit reserves, including separate accounts, aggregated $1.5
billion at June 30, 1995, down from $1.6 billion at June 30, 1994 primarily as a
result of an $82.0 million decrease in separate account liabilities.

INSURANCE REGULATIONS

Risk-based capital requirements are used as early warning tools by the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners and the states to identify companies that
merit further regulatory action. At June 30, 1995, the Company had adjusted
capital in excess of amounts requiring any regulatory action.


                                       7

The Company is subject to various regulatory restrictions that limit the maximum
amount of dividends available to its parent without prior approval of insurance
regulatory authorities in the state of domicile. No statutory surplus is
available in 1995 for dividends to the Company's shareholder without prior
approval of the Connecticut Insurance Department.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of (FAS 121). This statement establishes
accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain
identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and
used and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be
disposed of. This statement requires write down to fair value when long-lived
assets to be held and used are impaired. The statement also requires long-lived
assets to be disposed of (e.g., real estate held for sale) to be carried at the
lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell and does not allow such assets to
be depreciated. This statement will be effective for 1996 financial statements,
although earlier adoption is permissible. The Company has not yet determined
when it will adopt FAS 121; however, the impact is not expected to be material
to its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
