Explanatory Note



This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1) amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K of PHL Variable Insurance Company (the Company) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 18, 2008 (the Original 10-K). This Amendment No. 1 is being filed for the sole purpose of correcting the certifications required by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as adopted pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the 302 Certifications), certain provisions of which were inadvertently omitted when the Original 10-K was filed. The amended 302 Certifications are being filed in their entirety as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Amendment No. 1.



Except as described above, this Amendment No. 1 does not amend any other information set forth in the Original 10-K and the Company has not updated disclosures included therein to reflect any events that occurred subsequent to March 18, 2008. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original 10-K and the Companys filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original 10-K. The filing of this Amendment No. 1 shall not be deemed an admission that the Original 10-K, when made, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make a statement not misleading.
