PHL VARIABLE ACCUMULATION ACCOUNT
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1996
(Unaudited)
Note 1--Organization:
PHL Variable Accumulation Account (the Account) is a separate investment
account of PHL Variable Insurance Company (PHL Variable). The Account is
organized as a unit investment trust and currently consists of ten
Sub-accounts, which invest solely in a designated portfolio of The Phoenix
Edge Series Fund and two Sub-accounts which invest in the Wanger Advisors
Trust (the "Funds"). The Account is offered as The Big Edge Choice to
individuals (VA4). Contract holders may also direct the allocation of their
investments between the Account and the Guaranteed Interest Account of the
general account of PHL Variable through participant transfers.
Each Series has distinct investment objectives. The Money Market Series is
a pooled short-term investment fund, the Growth Series is a growth common
stock fund, the Multi-Sector Fixed Income (formerly Bond) Series is a
long-term debt fund, the Total Return Series invests in equity securities and
long and short-term debt, the International Series invests primarily in an
internationally diversified portfolio of equity securities, the Balanced
Series is a balanced fund which invests in growth stocks and at least 25% of
its assets in fixed income senior securities, the Real Estate Series invests
in marketable securities of publicly traded real estate investment trusts
("REITs") and companies that are principally engaged in the real estate
industry, the Strategic Theme Series invests in securities of companies
believed to benefit from specific trends, the Wanger U.S. Small Cap Series
invests in growth common stock of U.S. companies with stock market
capitalization of less than $1 billion and the Wanger International Small Cap
Series invests in securities of non-U.S. companies with a stock market
capitalization of less than $1 billion.
Note 2--Significant Accounting Policies
A. Valuation of Investments: Investments are made exclusively in the Funds
and are valued at the net asset values per share of the respective Series.
B. Investment transactions and related income: Realized gains and losses
include capital gain distributions from the Funds as well as gains and losses
on sales of shares in the funds determined on the LIFO (last in, first out)
basis.
C. Income taxes: The Account is not a separate entity from PHL Variable and
under current federal income tax law, income in the Account is not taxed
since reserves are established equivalent to such income. Therefore, no
provision for related federal or state income taxes is required.
D. Distributions: Distributions are recorded as investment income on the
ex-dividend date.
Note 3--Purchases and Sales of Shares of The Funds

Note 5--Investment Advisory Fees and Related Party Transactions:
PHL Variable and its affiliate, Phoenix Equity Planning Corporation, a
registered broker/dealer in securities, provide all services to the Account.
PHL Variable assumes the risk that annuitants as a class may live longer
than expected and that its expenses may be higher than its deductions for
such expenses. In return for the assumption of these mortality and expense
risks, PHL Variable charges the Sub-accounts the daily equivalent of 0.40%,
0.85% and 0.125% on an annual basis for mortality, expense risks and daily
administrative fees, respectively.
As compensation for administrative services provided to the Account, PHL
Variable additionally receives $35 per year from each contract, which is
deducted from the Sub-account holding the assets of the participant, or on a
pro rata basis from two or more Sub-accounts in relation to their values
under the contract. The $35 charge is waived on account values of more than
$50,000. Such fees aggregated $70 for the period ended June 30, 1996.
Phoenix Equity Planning Corporation is the principal underwriter and
distributor for the Account. PHL Variable reimburses Phoenix Equity Planning
Corporation for expenses incurred as underwriter. On surrender of a contract,
contingent deferred sales charges, which vary from 0-7% depending upon the
duration of each contract deposit, are deducted from the proceeds and are
paid to PHL Variable as reimbursement for services provided. There were no
contingent deferred sales charges deducted and paid to PHL Variable for the
period ended June 30, 1996.
Note 6--Distribution of Net Income:
The Account does not expect to declare dividends to participants from
accumulated net income. The accumulated net income is distributed to
participants as part of withdrawals of amounts in the form of surrenders,
death benefits, transfers or annuity payments in excess of net purchase
payments.
Note 7--Diversification Requirements:
Under the provisions of Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code (the
Code), a variable annuity contract, other than a contract issued in
connection with certain types of employee benefit plans, will not be treated
as an annuity contract for federal tax purposes for any period for which the
investments of the segregated asset account on which the contract is based
are not adequately diversified. The Code provides that the "adequately
diversified" requirement may be met if the underlying investments satisfy
either a statutory safe harbor test or diversification requirements set forth
in regulations issued by the Secretary of the Treasury.
The Internal Revenue Service has issued regulations under Section 817(h)
of the Code. PHL Variable believes that the Account satisfies the current
requirements of the regulations, and it intends that the Account will
continue to meet such requirements.
