A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT


DEAR PHOENIXFUNDS SHAREHOLDER:

[PHOTO OMITTED]
      The enclosed annual report addresses the performance of your Phoenix
mutual fund for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2006. The report also
provides a commentary from your fund's management team on how the fund
performed, the investment strategies used, and how the fund's results compared
to the broader market.
      At Phoenix, our focus is on investment performance and serving the best
interests of our shareholders. We believe that mutual funds are among the most
effective vehicles for individual investors to gain access to a variety of
financial markets and for building diversified portfolios.
      I am especially proud of how we have expanded our fund family over the
last year to offer access to even more money managers. Today, the PhoenixFunds
draw from the vast expertise of 16 different management teams--seven Phoenix
affiliates and nine outside subadvisers chosen for their complementary
investment capabilities.
      These fund teams operate independently, conducting their research,
identifying opportunities in the markets they know best, and applying their
disciplined strategies to the portfolios they manage. We are confident in their
ability to navigate their funds through whatever market and economic changes lie
ahead.
      When it comes to financial decisions, we recommend working with an
experienced financial advisor. If you haven't reviewed or rebalanced your
portfolio lately, this may be a good time to meet with your advisor and make
sure that your investments are still aligned with your financial goals.
      Thank you for choosing PhoenixFunds to be part of your financial plan.

Sincerely yours,
/s/Daniel T. Geraci

Daniel T. Geraci
President, PhoenixFunds

PHOENIX FOCUSED VALUE FUND

A DISCUSSION WITH THE FUND'S PORTFOLIO MANAGER, ED WALCZAK

Q: HOW DID THE PHOENIX FOCUSED VALUE FUND PERFORM FOR ITS FISCAL YEAR ENDED
FEBRUARY 28, 2006?

A: For the fiscal year ended February 28, 2006, the Fund's Class A shares
returned 1.65% and Class C shares returned 0.86%. For the same period, the S&P
500(R) Index, which is a broad based equity index, returned 8.40%. All
performance figures assume reinvestment of distributions and exclude the effect
of sales charges. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS AND CURRENT
PERFORMANCE MAY BE HIGHER OR LOWER THAN THE PERFORMANCE SHOWN ABOVE.

Q: HOW DID THE EQUITY MARKETS PERFORM DURING THE FUND'S FISCAL YEAR?

A: Deep value investing, which is not our style of investing, did well over the
year precisely because this style can buy oil, commodities and cyclical stocks.
Generally speaking, the earnings of value priced stocks (as conventionally
defined) are closely tied to the economic cycle. Some macro economic observers
have argued that all higher risk assets around the world, from emerging market
debt to U.S. oil refiners, have benefited from the ample supply of liquidity
freed up by former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan since the tech bubble
burst in 2000. This auspicious environment for higher risk assets has been
detrimental to our more conservative investment style, which emphasizes high
quality, high return on equity businesses. However, if this trend of more
cyclical, lower quality businesses doing well is nearing its end because these
groups may be enjoying peak or even inflated earnings, it could be beneficial
for our future relative performance.

Q: WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE DURING ITS FISCAL YEAR?

A: Stock valuations remained compressed within the U.S. market for the last 18
to 24 months, and we were unable to find many obvious mispriced stocks for the
portfolio. Our strict adherence to our investment process prevents us from
owning energy, technology and other cyclical businesses. The portfolio continues
to hold a significant cash position because it is difficult for us to be fully
invested at this time. This has caused us to lag the market.

      A good deal of the Fund's underperformance was attributable to the strong
performance of energy and commodity companies. Our investment approach typically
prevents us from owning these companies due to their mediocre returns on capital
and the potential unsustainability of higher levels of profitability.

      Our stock picking also contributed to underperformance. Fannie Mae was our
worst performer, as the pending restatement of its historical results and
potential legislative factors displaced any confidence in the underlying
economics of its business. Our radio stocks, Entercom and Saga, also hurt the
portfolio, as advertising growth proved less robust than expected. Fifth Third
Bankcorp, a financial stock,

Phoenix Focused Value Fund (continued)

was negatively impacted by the flattening yield curve, largely because of its
poor management of its balance sheet. In the consumer group, Liz Claiborne,
Harley-Davidson and Signet all suffered declines because of fears of the impact
of rising oil prices on discretionary consumer spending. Our single largest
position in Berkshire Hathaway did not help either. Not all of our stock picking
was disappointing, however, as Chubb, HCA, Tiffany, Nestle and State Street Bank
all enjoyed excellent returns.

                                                                      MARCH 2006

PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS, AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT
MARKET FORECASTS WILL BE REALIZED.

Phoenix Focused Value Fund


ABOUT YOUR FUND'S EXPENSES
   We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your
investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the
Focused Value Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs,
including sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges, if applicable;
and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees; distribution and
service fees; and other expenses. These examples are intended to help you
understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to
compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of
the period and held for the entire six-month period.

ACTUAL EXPENSES
   The first line of the accompanying tables provides information about actual
account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line,
together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid
over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an
$8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the
number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During
Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
   The second line of the accompanying tables provides information about
hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual
expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses,
which is not your Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and
expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or
expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the
ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare these
5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the
shareholder reports of the other funds.
   Please note that the expenses shown in the accompanying tables are meant to
highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs,
such as sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges. Therefore, the
second line of the accompanying tables is useful in comparing ongoing costs
only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning
different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your
costs would have been higher. The calculations assume no shares were bought or
sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower,
depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or
redemptions.

PHOENIX FOREIGN OPPORTUNITIES FUND


A DISCUSSION WITH THE FUND'S PORTFOLIO MANAGER, RAJIV JAIN


Q: HOW DID THE PHOENIX FOREIGN OPPORTUNITIES FUND PERFORM FOR ITS FISCAL YEAR
ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2006?

A: For the fiscal year ended February 28, 2006, the Fund's Class A shares
returned 21.82% and Class C shares returned 20.96%. For the same period, the S&P
500(R) Index, a broad-based equity index, returned 8.40% and the MSCI EAFE(R)
Index (Net), which is the Fund's style-specific index appropriate for comparison
returned 17.41%. All performance figures assume reinvestment of distributions
and exclude the effect of sales charges. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF
FUTURE RESULTS AND CURRENT PERFORMANCE MAY BE HIGHER OR LOWER THAN THE
PERFORMANCE SHOWN ABOVE.

Q: HOW DID THE EQUITY MARKETS PERFORM DURING THE FUND'S FISCAL YEAR?

A: The 2005 calendar year was another strong year for international equities,
extending the run to three consecutive years. To keep things in perspective, if
you invested $10,000 in the international equity index, the MSCI EAFE(R), in
January 2003, it was worth $18,920 at the end of 2005, compared to $14,965 if it
were invested in the U.S. equity index, the S&P 500, for the same period.

      Non-U.S. markets continued their rally and made good gains toward the end
of the Fund's fiscal year. Emerging markets outpaced developed markets for the
period. Our international portfolio participated in the up market thanks to our
large emerging market exposure. For the year, the Fund outpaced the strong
returns of the benchmark index.

      Attractive fundamentals and valuations remain long-term positives for
non-U.S. stocks and emerging markets in particular, despite short-term risks
from U.S. inflation and interest rate concerns.

Q: WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE DURING ITS FISCAL YEAR?

A: We continue an overweight allocation to emerging markets, as strong
fundamentals, attractive valuations and solid growth prospects are likely to
support continued investor interest in the asset class. This positioning helped
us to achieve better than index returns despite our lack of exposure to the
three best performing sectors in the MSCI EAFE Index (Net)--energy, industrials
and materials.
                                                                      MARCH 2006

THE PRECEDING INFORMATION IS THE OPINION OF PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT. PAST
PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS, AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT
MARKET FORECASTS WILL BE REALIZED.

Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund


ABOUT YOUR FUND'S EXPENSES
   We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of costs on your
investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the
Foreign Opportunities Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs,
including sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges, if applicable;
and (2) ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees; distribution and
service fees; and other expenses. These examples are intended to help you
understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to
compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of
the period and held for the entire six-month period.

ACTUAL EXPENSES
   The first line of the accompanying tables provides information about actual
account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line,
together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid
over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an
$8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the
number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During
Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
   The second line of the accompanying tables provides information about
hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual
expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses,
which is not your Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and
expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or
expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the
ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare these
5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the
shareholder reports of the other funds.
   Please note that the expenses shown in the accompanying tables are meant to
highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs,
such as sales charges or contingent deferred sales charges. Therefore, the
second line of the accompanying tables is useful in comparing ongoing costs
only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning
different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your
costs would have been higher. The calculations assume no shares were bought or
sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower,
depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or
redemptions.

PHOENIX ADVISER TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2006

1. ORGANIZATION
   Phoenix Adviser Trust (the "Trust") is organized as a Delaware statutory
trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as
an open-end management investment company.
   Currently, two funds are offered for sale (each a "Fund"). Phoenix Focused
Value Fund ("Focused Value Fund") is non-diversified and seeks long-term capital
appreciation. Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund ("Foreign Opportunities Fund")
is diversified and its primary investment objective is to seek long-term capital
appreciation.
   The Funds offer the following classes of shares for sale:
                                 CLASS A   CLASS C
                                 -------   -------
Focused Value Fund. .............   x         x
Foreign Opportunities Fund ......   x         x

   Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75%.
Generally, Class A shares are not subject to any charges by the Funds redeemed;
however, effective January 11, 2006, a 1% contingent deferred sales charge may
be imposed on certain redemptions within one year on purchases on which a
finder's fee has been paid. Class C shares are sold with a 1% contingent
deferred sales charge if redeemed within one year of purchase.
   Each class of shares has identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other
rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each class bears different
distribution and/or service expenses and has exclusive voting rights with
respect to its distribution plan. Income and expenses and realized and
unrealized gains and losses of each Fund are borne pro rata by the holders of
each class of shares.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
   The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America 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 amount of increases and decreases in
net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

A. SECURITY VALUATION:
   Equity securities are valued at the official closing price (typically last
sale) on the exchange on which the securities are primarily traded, or if no
closing price is available, at the last bid price.
   Debt securities are valued on the basis of broker quotations or valuations
provided by a pricing service, which utilizes information with respect to recent
sales, market transactions in comparable securities, quotations from dealers,
and various relationships between securities in determining value.
   As required, some securities and assets may be valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Trustees.
   Certain foreign common stocks may be fair valued in cases where closing
prices are not readily available or are deemed not reflective of readily
available market prices. For example, significant events (such as movement in
the U.S. securities market, or other regional and local developments) may occur
between the time that foreign markets close (where the security is principally
traded) and the time that the Fund calculates its net asset value (generally,
the close of the NYSE) that may impact the value of securities traded in these
foreign markets. In these cases, information from an external vendor may be
utilized to adjust closing market prices of certain foreign common stocks to
reflect their fair value. Because the frequency of significant events is not
predictable, fair valuation of certain foreign common stocks may occur on a
frequent basis. On February 28, 2006, the Foreign Opportunities Fund utilized
fair value pricing for its foreign common stocks.
   Short-term investments having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.

B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME:
   Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date, or in the case of certain foreign securities,
as soon as the Fund is notified. Interest income is recorded on the accrual
basis. Each Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective
interest method. Realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost
basis.

C. INCOME TAXES:
   Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. It is the policy of each
Fund in the Trust to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made.
   The Trust may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or
currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. Each Fund will
accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable based upon current
interpretations of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in
which they invest.

D. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:
   Distributions are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and
capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. These differences may include the treatment of
non-taxable dividends, market premium and discount, non-deductible expenses,
expiring capital loss carryovers, foreign currency gain or loss, gain or loss on
futures contracts, partnerships, operating losses and losses deferred due to
wash sales. Permanent book
                                                                              23


PHOENIX ADVISER TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2006 (Continued)

and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result
in reclassifications to capital paid in on shares of beneficial interest.

E. EXPENSES:
   Expenses incurred by the Trust with respect to more than one Fund are
allocated in proportion to the net assets of each Fund, except where allocation
of direct expense to each Fund or an alternative allocation method can be more
appropriately made.

F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION:
   Foreign securities and other assets and liabilities are valued using the
foreign currency exchange rate effective at the end of the reporting period.
Cost of investments is translated at the currency exchange rate effective at the
trade date. The gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates
between the trade and settlement date of a portfolio transaction is treated as a
gain or loss on foreign currency. Likewise, the gain or loss resulting from a
change in currency exchange rates between the date income is accrued and paid is
treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. The Trust does not isolate that
portion of the results of operations arising from either changes in exchange
rates or in the market prices of securities.

G. FOREIGN SECURITY COUNTRY DETERMINATION:
   A combination of the following criteria is used to assign the countries of
risk listed in the schedules of investments: country of incorporation, actual
building address, primary exchange on which the security is traded and country
in which the greatest percentage of company revenue is generated.

H. FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS:
   Each Fund may enter into forward currency contracts in conjunction with the
planned purchase or sale of foreign denominated securities in order to hedge the
U.S. dollar cost or proceeds. Forward currency contracts involve, to varying
degrees, elements of market risk in excess of the amount recognized in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Risks arise from the possible movements in
foreign exchange rates or if the counterparty does not perform under the
contract.
   A forward currency contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a
specific currency at a future date, which may be any number of days from the
date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of
the contract. These contracts are traded directly between currency traders and
their customers. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market
value is recorded by each Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract
is closed or offset with the same counterparty, the Fund records a realized gain
or loss equal to the change in the value of the contract when it was opened and
the value at the time it was closed or offset.
   At February 28, 2006, the Foreign Opportunities Fund had entered into forward
currency contracts as follows:
                                                                       NET

I. REPURCHASE AGREEMENT:
   A repurchase agreement is a transaction where a Fund acquires a security for
cash and obtains a simultaneous commitment from the seller to repurchase the
security at an agreed upon price and date. Each Fund, through its custodian,
takes possession of securities collateralizing the repurchase agreement. The
collateral is marked-to-market daily to ensure that the market value of the
underlying assets remains sufficient to protect the Fund in the event of default
by the seller. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines,
or if the seller enters insolvency proceedings, realization of collateral may be
delayed or limited.

3. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
   As compensation for its services to the Trust, the Adviser, Phoenix
Investment Counsel, Inc., ("PIC") (the "Adviser"), an indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Phoenix Companies, Inc. ("PNX"), is entitled to a fee based
upon the following annual rates as a percentage of the average daily net assets
of each fund:

Focused Value Fund(1)..........................   0.75%

PHOENIX ADVISER TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2006 (CONTINUED)

   Effective June 20, 2005, PIC became Adviser to the Phoenix Focused Value Fund
and Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund (formerly, the Focused Value Fund and
International Equity Fund, each a "Janus Fund" and collectively, the "Janus
Funds").

    (1) Prior to June 20, 2005, the adviser to the Janus Funds was Janus Capital
        ("Janus"). For its services to the Focused Value Fund, Janus' fees
        ranged from 0.96% to 0.75% based on the Fund's average daily net assets.
        Janus contractually agreed to cap total operating expenses excluding
        administration fees, distribution and service fees, brokerage
        commissions, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses at 0.90% of the
        average daily net assets of the Fund.

           For its services to the International Equity Fund, Janus fees ranged
        from 0.99% to 0.75% based on the Fund's average daily net assets. Janus
        contractually agreed to cap total operating expenses excluding
        administration fees, distribution and service fees, brokerage
        commissions, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses at 1.00% of the
        average daily net assets of the Fund.

   PIC has contractually agreed to limit each Fund's operating expenses until
March 31, 2006, to the extent that such expenses exceed the following
percentages of average annual net assets:

                                        Class A     Class C
                                        -------     -------
Focused Value Fund...............        1.15%       1.90%
Foreign Opportunities Fund ......        1.25%       2.00%

   PIC has contractually agreed to limit each Fund's operating expenses from
April 1, 2006 through June 30, 2008, to the extent that such expenses exceed the
following percentages of average annual net assets:

                                        Class A     Class C
                                        -------     -------
Focused Value Fund...............        1.25%       2.00%
Foreign Opportunities Fund ......        1.35%       2.10%

   The Adviser will not seek to recapture any reimbursed expenses or waived
investment advisory fees as part of this agreement.
   Effective June 20, 2005, under a sub-advisory agreement with PIC, Vontobel
Asset Management, Inc., ("Vontobel") is the subadviser to the Funds. For its
services, Vontobel is paid by the Adviser a fee based on the average daily net
assets in the following schedule:

                                                      OVER $0
                                   $0-50 MILLION    $50 MILLION
                                   -------------    -----------
Focused Value Fund(1)............      0.70%           0.375%
Foreign Opportunities Fund(1)....      0.80%           0.425%

   (1) Prior to June 20, 2005, under a sub-advisory agreement with Janus,
Vontobel was the subadviser to the Janus Funds. Janus paid Vontobel a subadviser
fee ranging from 0.215% to 0.74% for the Focused Value Fund and 0.215% to 0.408%
for the International Equity Fund based on the value of each Janus Fund's
respective average daily net assets.

   As Distributor of each Fund's shares, Phoenix Equity Planning Corporation
("PEPCO"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of PNX, has advised the Trust
that it retained net selling commissions and deferred sales charges for the
period of June 21, 2005 to February 28, 2006, as follows:

                                          CLASS A         CLASS C
                                        NET SELLING       DEFERRED
                                        COMMISSIONS     SALES CHARGES
                                        -----------     -------------
Focused Value Fund...............         $   865          $  125
Foreign Opportunities Fund.......          16,877           1,645

   For the period of March 29 through June 20, 2005, Janus Capital waived all
contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") pending the effective date of the new
advisory and subadvisory agreements. Prior to the waiver, the CDSC fees paid for
the period of March 1 to March 28, 2005 was $0.
   In addition, each fund pays PEPCO distribution and/or service fees at an
annual rate of 0.25% for Class A shares and 1.00% for Class C shares applied to
the average daily net assets of each respective class.
   Under certain circumstances, shares of certain Phoenix Funds may be exchanged
for shares of the same class of certain other Phoenix Funds on the basis of the
relative net asset values per share at the time of the exchange. On exchanges
with share classes that carry a contingent deferred sales charge, the CDSC
schedule of the original shares purchased continues to apply.
   As financial agent of the Trust, PEPCO receives a financial agent fee equal
to the sum of (1) the documented cost to PEPCO to provide oversight of the
performance of PFPC Inc. (subagent to PEPCO) plus (2) the documented cost of
fund accounting, tax services and related services provided by PFPC Inc. For the
period of June 21, 2005 to February 28, 2006, the Trust incurred financial agent
fees totaling $111,695.
   For the period of March 1, 2005 to June 20, 2005, Janus Services LLC ("Janus
Services"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Janus Capital acted as the
Administrator to the Janus Funds and received fees of $60,197 from the funds
ranging from 0.10% to 0.25% of the daily net assets of the Janus Funds.
   PEPCO serves as the Trust's transfer agent with State Street Bank and Trust
Company serving as sub-transfer agent. For the period ended February 28, 2006,
transfer agent fees were $267,803 as reported in the Statements of Operations,
of which PEPCO retained the following:

                                     TRANSFER AGENT
                                      FEE RETAINED

PHOENIX ADVISER TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2006 (CONTINUED)

   Prior to June 21, 2005, Janus Services served as the Trust's transfer agent
and was paid $11,094 by Focused Value Fund and $19,574 by the International
Equity Fund for the period of March 1, 2005 through June 20, 2005. These fees
are included in the transfer agent expenses as reported in the Statements of
Operations.
   At February 28, 2006, PNX and its affiliates, the retirement plans of PNX and
its affiliates and Phoenix-affiliated funds held 538,601 Class A shares of the
Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund with an aggregate net asset value of
$11,558,377.
   During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005, Janus Services reimbursed the
Focused Value Fund - Investor Shares $585 and International Equity Fund
Investor Shares $1,210, as a result of dilutions caused by incorrectly processed
shareholder activity. The effect of this activity would have reduced total
return by less than 0.01% for the Foreign Opportunities Fund and had no impact
on the Focused Value Fund.

4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
   Purchases and sales of securities during the period ended February 28, 2006
(excluding U.S. Government and agency securities, forward currency contracts and
short-term securities) were as follows:

                                      PURCHASES         SALES
                                     -----------     -----------
Focused Value Fund...............    $19,664,764     $39,235,318
Foreign Opportunities Fund.......     66,420,401      54,066,814

   There were no purchases or sales of long-term U.S. Government and agency
securities for the period ended February 28, 2006.

5. 10% SHAREHOLDERS
   As of February 28, 2006, the Funds had single shareholder accounts and/or
omnibus shareholder accounts (which are comprised of a group of individual
shareholders), which individually amounted to more than 10% of the total shares
outstanding.
                                                  % OF SHARES
                                                  OUTSTANDING
                                                  -----------
Focused Value Fund *...........................      37.9%
Foreign Opportunities Fund ....................      21.4

    *For the Focused Value Fund, one account representing 12.7% of the
     shares outstanding is held by Bank Vontobel Holding AG, an affiliate of
     Vontobel Holding AG, which wholly owns Vontobel Asset Management, Inc.,
     the subadviser to the Funds.

6. CREDIT RISK AND ASSET CONCENTRATIONS
   In countries with limited or developing markets, investments may present
greater risks than in more developed markets and the prices of such investments
may be volatile. The consequences of political, social or economic changes in
these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of these
investments and the income they generate, as well as a Fund's ability to
repatriate such amounts.
   Certain Funds may invest a high percentage of their assets in specific
sectors of the market in their pursuit of a greater investment return.
Fluctuations in these sectors of concentration may have a greater impact on a
Fund, positive or negative, than if a Fund did not concentrate its investments
in such sectors.
   At February 28, 2006, the Focused Value Fund held $26,635,770 in investments
of financial institutions, including $8,940,400 issued by Berkshire Hathaway,
comprising 44% and 14.9% of the total net assets of the Fund, respectively. The
Foreign Opportunities Fund held $31,264,251 in investments with the foreign
country determination of the United Kingdom, comprising 23% of the total net
assets of the Fund.

7. INDEMNIFICATIONS
   Under the Funds' organizational documents, its trustees and officers are
indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their
duties to the Funds. In addition, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a
variety of indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these
arrangements is unknown. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses
pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.

8. REGULATORY EXAMS
   Federal and state regulatory authorities from time to time make inquiries and
conduct examinations regarding compliance by The Phoenix Companies, Inc. and its
subsidiaries (collectively "the Company") with securities and other laws and
regulations affecting their registered products. During 2004 and 2005, the
Boston District Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
conducted an examination of the Company's investment company and investment
adviser affiliates. Following the examination, the staff of the Boston District
Office issued a deficiency letter noting perceived weaknesses in procedures for
monitoring trading to prevent market timing activity prior to 2004. The staff
requested the Company to conduct an analysis as to whether shareholders,
policyholders and contract holders who invested in the funds that may have been
affected by undetected market timing activity had suffered harm and to advise
the staff whether the Company believes reimbursement is necessary or appropriate
under the circumstances. Market timing is an investment technique involving
frequent short-term trading of mutual fund shares that is designed to exploit
market movements or inefficiencies in the way

mutual fund companies price their shares. A third party was retained to assist
the Company in preparing the analysis. In 2005, based on the third party
analysis, the Company notified the staff at the SEC Boston District Office that
reimbursements were not appropriate under the circumstances. The Company does
not believe that the outcome of this matter will be material to these financial
statements.

9. FUND INTEGRATION
   At a meeting held on March 24, 2005, the Board of Trustees (the "Janus
Board") of the Focused Value Fund and the International Equity Fund (each a
"Janus Fund" and collectively, the "Janus Funds"), each a series of Janus
Adviser Trust (the "Janus Trust") voted to approve a transaction (the
"Transaction") whereby the Janus Trust and Janus Funds would be integrated into
the Phoenix Investment Partners, Ltd., family of mutual funds (the "Phoenix
Funds").
   In connection with the Transaction, at a special meeting held on May 17,
2005, shareholders of the Janus Funds approved a new investment advisory
agreement with PIC and the continuation of Vontobel as subadviser, pursuant to a
new investment subadvisory agreement between PIC and Vontobel. Also, in
connection with the Transaction, shareholders approved the reconstitution of the
Janus Board with a new slate of trustees comprised of fourteen trustees of the
Phoenix Funds.
   The Transaction was completed on June 20, 2005 and the names of Focused Value
Fund and International Equity Fund changed to Phoenix Focused Value Fund and
Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund, respectively. Additionally, the Janus Trust
was renamed the Phoenix Adviser Trust.
   Pursuant to the Transaction, on June 20, 2005, Janus Fund shareholders who
held Class A and Class C shares remained in the same class of shares of either
the Phoenix Focused Value Fund or the Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund, as
applicable. Janus Fund shareholders who held Investor shares or Class I shares
had those shares converted to Class A shares of either the Phoenix Focused Value
Fund or the Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund, as applicable. Janus Fund
shareholders who held Investor shares or Class I shares that were converted to
Class A shares may continue, as long as such shares are held, to purchase Class
A shares without any sales charges.

10. FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION
   The Funds have capital loss carryovers, which may be used to offset future
capital gains:
                                              EXPIRATION YEAR
                                  -----------------------------------
                                    2009          2010        TOTAL
                                  ----------   ----------   ---------
Foreign Opportunities Fund(1)     $3,897,457   $1,299,153   $5,196,610

   (1) Utilization of this capital loss carryover is subject to annual
       limitations.

   The Trust may not realize the benefit of these losses to the extent the Fund
does not realize gains on investments prior to the expiration of the capital
loss carryovers.
   For the 12 month period ended February 28, 2006, the Funds utilized losses
deferred in prior years against current year capital gains as follows:

Foreign Opportunities Fund.....................   $1,299,153

   The components of distributable earnings on a tax basis (excluding unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) which is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments)
consist of undistributed ordinary income and undistributed long-term capital
gains as follows:
                                         UNDISTRIBUTED       UNDISTRIBUTED
                                           ORDINARY            LONG-TERM
                                            INCOME           CAPITAL GAINS
                                         -------------       -------------
Focused Value Fund..................        $  244,714          $  676,858
Foreign Opportunities Fund..........         1,740,786           1,399,026

   The differences between the book and tax basis components of distributable
earnings relate principally to the timing of recognition of income and gains for
federal income tax purposes. Short-term gain distributions reported in the
Statements of Changes in Net Assets, if any, are reported as ordinary income for
federal tax purposes.

11. RECLASSIFICATION OF CAPITAL ACCOUNTS
   For financial reporting purposes, book basis capital accounts are adjusted to
reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences. Permanent
reclassifications can arise from differing treatment of certain income and gain
transactions, nondeductible current year net operating losses, expiring capital
loss carryovers and investments in passive foreign investment companies. The
reclassifications have no impact on the net assets or net asset value of the
Funds. As of February 28, 2006, the Funds recorded the following
reclassifications to increase (decrease) the accounts as listed below:

                                CAPITAL PAID IN    ACCUMULATED     UNDISTRIBUTED
                                   ON SHARES           NET              NET

                                ---------------   -------------   --------------
Focused Value Fund...............    $(1)            $     1        $     --
Foreign Opportunities Fund ......     (1)             97,838         (97,837)

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
    The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved the merger of the
Phoenix Overseas Fund with and into the Phoenix Foreign Oppor-tunities Fund.
Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Agreement") approved
by the Board, the Phoenix Overseas Fund of Phoenix-Kayne Funds will transfer all
or substantially all of its assets to the Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund, in
exchange for shares of the Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund and the assumption
by Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund of all the liabilities of the Phoenix
Overseas Fund. Following the exchange, the Phoenix Overseas Fund will distribute
the shares of the Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund to its shareholders pro
rata, in liquidation of the Phoenix Overseas Fund. The merger will take place on
or about May 19, 2006.
                                                                              27

To the Board of Trustees of
Phoenix Adviser Trust and Shareholders of
Phoenix Focused Value Fund and
Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund



     In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations
and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Phoenix Focused Value Fund
(formerly Janus Focused Value Fund) and Phoenix Foreign Opportunities Fund
(formerly Janus International Equity Fund) (constituting Phoenix Adviser Trust,
hereafter referred to as the "Trust") at February 28, 2006, the results of each
of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net
assets for each of the periods indicated and the financial highlights for the
periods ended December 31, 2003, February 29, 2004, February 28, 2005, and
February 28, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. These financial statements and financial
highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Trust' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at February 28, 2006 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. The Financial
Highlights for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2002 were
audited by other independent accountants whose report dated February 14, 2003,
expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES' CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
FOR PHOENIX FOCUSED VALUE FUND (THE "FUND")
FEBRUARY 28, 2006 (UNAUDITED)

   The Board of Trustees is responsible for determining whether to approve the
Fund's investment advisory agreement. At a meeting held on November 4, 2005, the
Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, approved the investment
advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") between Phoenix Investment
Counsel, Inc. ("PIC") and the Fund. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, PIC
provides advisory services to the Fund.
   During the review process, the Board received assistance and advice from, and
met separately with, independent legal counsel. In approving the Advisory
Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees,
determined that the fee structure was fair and reasonable and that approval of
the Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and its
shareholders. While attention was given to all information furnished, the
following discusses the primary factors relevant to the Board's decision.

   NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES. The Board concluded that the nature,
extent and quality of the overall services provided by PIC and its affiliates to
the Fund and its shareholders was reasonable. The Board's conclusion was based,
in part, upon services provided to the Fund such as quarterly reports provided
by PIC comparing the performance of the Fund with a peer group and benchmark,
reports provided by PIC showing that the investment policies and restrictions
for the Fund were followed and reports provided by PIC covering matters such as
the compliance of investment personnel and other access persons with PIC's and
the Fund's code of ethics, the adherence to fair value pricing procedures
established by the Board, the monitoring of portfolio compliance, information on
illiquid securities and derivatives, brokerage commissions and presentations
regarding the economic environment and general investment outlook. The Board
noted that PIC was responsible for the general oversight of the investment
programs of the Fund and monitoring Vontobel Asset Management, Inc., (the
"Subadvisor") who acts as the Fund's Subadvisor, and its investment performance
and compliance with applicable laws, regulations, policies and procedures. In
this regard, the Board considered the detailed performance review process of the
investment oversight committee. With respect to compliance monitoring, the Board
noted that PIC required quarterly compliance certifications from the Subadvisor
and conducted compliance due diligence visits at the Subadvisor. The Board also
considered the experience of PIC having acted as an investment adviser to mutual
funds for over 70 years and its current experience in acting as an investment
adviser to over 50 mutual funds and several institutional clients. The Board
also noted the extent of benefits that are provided Fund shareholders from being
part of the Phoenix family of funds, including the right to exchange investments
between the same class of funds without a sales charge, the ability to reinvest
Fund dividends into other funds and the right to combine holdings in other funds
to obtain a reduced sales charge. The Board also considered the transfer agent
and shareholder services that are provided to Fund shareholders by an affiliate
of PIC, noting continuing improvements by management in the scope and quality of
services and favorable reports on such service conducted by third parties.
   INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE. The Board placed significant emphasis on the
investment performance of the Fund in view of its importance to shareholders.
While consideration was given to performance reports and discussions at Board
meetings throughout the year, particular attention in assessing such performance
was given to a report for the Fund prepared by Lipper Financial Services
("Lipper") furnished for the contract renewal process. The Lipper report showed
the investment performance of the Fund's Class A shares for the 1, 3, 5 and 10
year periods ended September 30, 2005 and the year-to-date period ended
September 30, 2005. The Board reviewed the investment performance of the Fund,
along with comparative performance information of a peer group of funds and a
relevant market index. The Board noted that the Fund had outperformed its
benchmark for the 5 and 10 year periods, but had underperformed its benchmark
for the year to date and the 1 and 3 year periods. While the Fund had been
underperforming until September 30, 2005, Management noted this was not
unexpected because the Fund was a contrarian fund and had a concentrated
portfolio. The Board was satisfied with this explanation and the portfolio
manager's approach to investing, noting the Fund had the same portfolio manager
as when it was launched. The Board concluded that it was reasonable to approve
the Advisory Agreement in view of Management's explanation of the Fund's
performance.
   PROFITABILITY. The Board also considered the level of profits realized by PIC
and its affiliates in connection with the operation of the Fund. In this regard,
the Board reviewed the Fund profitability analysis that addressed the overall
profitability of PIC for its management of the Phoenix retail fund family, as
well as its profits and that of its affiliates, for managing the Fund. Specific
attention was given to the methodology followed in allocating costs to the Fund,
it being recognized that allocation methodologies are inherently subjective and
various allocation methodologies may each be reasonable while producing
different results. In this regard, the Board noted that the allocation appeared
reasonable. The Board also noted the fee waiver provided to the Fund. The Board
concluded that the profitability to PIC from the Fund was reasonable.
   MANAGEMENT FEE AND TOTAL EXPENSES. The Board also placed significant emphasis
on the review of expenses of the Fund. Consideration was given to a comparative
analysis of the management fees and total expense ratios of the Fund compared
with those of a group of other funds selected by Lipper as its appropriate
Lipper expense group under the Lipper report. The Board noted that the total
expenses of the Fund were lower than all the comparable funds in its peer group
due to expense caps, and that the management fee was below the median for the
peer group. The Board noted that the expense cap to limit total

FEBRUARY 28, 2006 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

expenses was contractually in place for another two years. The Board concluded
that it was reasonable to approve the Advisory Agreement.

   ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Board noted that it was likely that PIC and the Fund
would achieve certain economies of scale as the assets grew covering certain
fixed costs. The Board concluded that shareholders would have an opportunity to
benefit from these economies of scale.


                                                                              31


BOARD OF TRUSTEES' CONSIDERATION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
FOR PHOENIX FOREIGN OPPORTUNITIES FUND (THE "FUND")
FEBRUARY 28, 2006 (UNAUDITED)

   The Board of Trustees is responsible for determining whether to approve the
Fund's investment advisory agreement. At a meeting held on November 4, 2005, the
Board, including a majority of the independent Trustees, approved the investment
advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") between Phoenix Investment
Counsel, Inc. ("PIC") and the Fund. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, PIC
provides advisory services to the Fund.
   During the review process, the Board received assistance and advice from, and

noted that PIC was responsible for the general oversight of the investment
programs of the Fund and monitoring Vontobel Asset Management, Inc., (the
"Subadvisor") who acts as the Fund's Subadvisor, and its investment performance
and compliance with applicable laws, regulations, policies and procedures. In
this regard, the Board considered the detailed performance review process of the

noted that PIC required quarterly compliance certifications from the Subadvisor
and conducted compliance due diligence visits at the Subadvisor. The Board also
considered the experience of PIC having acted as an investment adviser to mutual
funds for over 70 years and its current experience in acting as an investment
adviser to over 50 mutual funds and several institutional clients. The Board
also noted the extent of benefits that are provided Fund shareholders from being
part of the Phoenix family of funds, including the right to exchange investments
between the same class of funds without a sales charge, the ability to reinvest

the investment performance of the Fund's Class A shares for the 1, 3, 5 and 10
year periods ended September 30, 2005 and the year-to-date period ended
September 30, 2005. The Board reviewed the investment performance of the Fund,
along with comparative performance information of a peer group of funds and a
relevant market index. The Board noted that the Fund had outperformed its
benchmark for the 1 and 10 year periods, but slightly underperformed its
benchmark for the 3 and 5 year periods. Management noted that PIC has only been
the investment adviser since June 2005 and recent Fund performance had been
good. The Board concluded that it was reasonable to approve the Advisory
Agreement in view of the recent change in investment advisors.
   PROFITABILITY. The Board also considered the level of profits realized by PIC
and its affiliates in connection with the operation of the Fund. In this regard,
the Board reviewed the Fund profitability analysis that addressed the overall
profitability of PIC for its management of the Phoenix retail fund family, as
well as its profits and that of its affiliates, for managing the Fund. Specific
attention was given to the methodology followed in allocating costs to the Fund,
it being recognized that allocation methodologies are inherently subjective and

due to expense caps, and that the management fee was below the median for the
peer group. The Board noted that the expense cap to limit total expenses was
contractually in place for another two years. The Board concluded that it was
reasonable to approve the Advisory Agreement.
   ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Board noted that it was likely that PIC and the Fund
would achieve certain economies of scale as the assets grew covering certain
fixed costs. The Board concluded that shareholders would have an opportunity to
benefit from these economies of scale.

ITEM 2. CODE OF ETHICS.

    (a)  The registrant, as of the end of the period covered by this report, has
         adopted a code of ethics  that  applies to the  registrant's  principal
         executive officer,  principal financial officer,  principal  accounting
         officer  or  controller,   or  persons  performing  similar  functions,
         regardless of whether these  individuals are employed by the registrant
         or a third party.

    (c)  There  have been no  amendments,  during  the  period  covered  by this
         report,  to a  provision  of the code of  ethics  that  applies  to the
         registrant's principal executive officer,  principal financial officer,
         principal  accounting  officer or  controller,  or  persons  performing
         similar functions, regardless of whether these individuals are employed
         by the registrant or a third party,  and that relates to any element of
         the code of  ethics  described  in Item  2(b) of the  instructions  for
         completion of Form N-CSR.

    (d)  The registrant  has not granted any waivers,  during the period covered
         by this report,  including an implicit waiver,  from a provision of the
         code of ethics that  applies to the  registrant's  principal  executive
         officer,  principal financial officer,  principal accounting officer or
         controller,  or persons  performing  similar  functions,  regardless of
         whether  these  individuals  are employed by the  registrant or a third
         party,  that relates to one or more of the items set forth in paragraph
         (b) of the instructions for completion of this Item.


ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.

    (a)(1)  The   Registrant's   Board  of  Trustees  has  determined  that  the
            Registrant has two "audit  committee  financial  experts" serving on
            its Audit Committee.

    (a)(2)  Mr. E. Virgil Conway and Mr. Everett L. Morris have been  determined
            by the Registrant to possess the technical attributes  identified in
            Instruction  2(b) of Item 3 to  Form  N-CSR  to  qualify  as  "audit
            committee   financial  experts."  Mr.  Conway  and  Mr.  Morris  are
            "independent"  trustees  pursuant to  paragraph  (a)(2) of Item 3 to
            Form N-CSR.

    (a)(3)  Not applicable.


ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.

Audit Fees
- ----------

    (a)     The aggregate  fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for
            professional  services


            rendered  by  the  principal   accountant   for  the  audit  of  the
            registrant's  annual  financial  statements  or  services  that  are
            normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and
            regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years are $34,200
            for 2006 and $36,923 for 2005.

Audit-Related Fees
- ------------------

    (b)     The  aggregate  fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for
            assurance and related services by the principal  accountant that are
            reasonably   related  to  the   performance  of  the  audit  of  the
            registrant's   financial  statements  and  are  not  reported  under
            paragraph  (a) of this  Item are  $2,000  for 2006 and $0 for  2005.
            Services related to these fees are for the review of the semi annual
            report.

Tax Fees
- --------

    (c)     The  aggregate  fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for
            professional  services rendered by the principal  accountant for tax
            compliance,  tax advice,  and tax  planning  are $8,700 for 2006 and
            $9,173 for 2005.

            "Tax Fees" are those primarily associated with review of the Trust's
            tax provision and  qualification as a regulated  investment  company
            (RIC) in connection with audits of the Trust's financial  statement,
            review of year-end distributions by the Fund to avoid excise tax for
            the  Trust,  periodic  discussion  with  management  on  tax  issues
            affecting the Trust,  and  reviewing and signing the Fund's  federal
            income and excise tax returns.

All Other Fees
- --------------

    (d)     The  aggregate  fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for
            products and services  provided by the principal  accountant,  other
            than the  services  reported in  paragraphs  (a) through (c) of this
            Item are $0 for 2006 and $0 for 2005.

    (e)(1)  Disclose the audit committee's  pre-approval policies and procedures
            described in paragraph (c)(7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

            The Phoenix  Adviser Trust (the "Fund")  Board has adopted  policies
            and procedures with regard to the pre-approval of services  provided
            by PwC. Audit, audit-related and tax compliance services provided to
            the Fund on an annual basis  require  specific  pre-approval  by the
            Board.  As noted above,  the Board must also approve other non-audit
            services provided to the Fund and those non-audit  services provided
            to the Fund's  Affiliated  Service Providers that relate directly to
            the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. Certain of these
            non-audit  services that the Board  believes are a) consistent  with
            the SEC's  auditor  independence  rules and b) routine and recurring
            services that will not impair the  independence  of the  independent
            auditors  may be approved by the Board  without  consideration  on a
            specific case-by-case basis ("general pre-approval").

            The Audit Committee has determined that Mr. E. Virgil Conway,  Chair
            of the Audit Committee,  may provide  pre-approval for such services
            that  meet the above  requirements  in the event  such  approval  is
            sought between regularly scheduled  meetings.  In the event that Mr.
            Conway determines that the full board should review the request,  he
            has the  opportunity to convene a meeting of the Funds Board. In any
            event,  the Board is informed of each  service  approved  subject to
            general pre-approval at the next regularly scheduled in-person board
            meeting.


    (e)(2)  The  percentage  of services  described  in each of  paragraphs  (b)
            through (d) of this Item that were  approved by the audit  committee
            pursuant to paragraph  (c)(7)(i)(C)  of Rule 2-01 of Regulation  S-X
            are as follows:

               (b) 100% for 2006 and not applicable for 2005

               (c) 100% for 2006 and 100% for 2005

               (d) Not applicable for 2006 and not applicable for 2005

    (f)     The  percentage  of hours  expended  on the  principal  accountant's
            engagement to audit the  registrant's  financial  statements for the
            most recent fiscal year that were  attributed  to work  performed by
            persons other than the principal accountant's  full-time,  permanent
            employees was less than fifty percent.

    (g)     The aggregate  non-audit fees billed by the registrant's  accountant
            for  services  rendered  to  the  registrant,  and  rendered  to the
            registrant's investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose
            role is primarily portfolio  management and is subcontracted with or
            overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling,
            controlled  by,  or  under  common  control  with the  adviser  that
            provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two
            fiscal  years of the  registrant  was $798,509 for 2006 and $126,825
            for 2005.

    (h)     The  registrant's  audit  committee  of the board of  directors  has
            considered  whether the  provision of non-audit  services  that were
            rendered to the registrant's  investment  adviser (not including any
            sub-adviser  whose role is  primarily  portfolio  management  and is
            subcontracted with or overseen by another investment  adviser),  and
            any entity controlling,  controlled by, or under common control with
            the  investment  adviser  that  provides  ongoing  services  to  the
            registrant  that  were  not   pre-approved   pursuant  to  paragraph
            (c)(7)(ii)  of  Rule  2-01  of  Regulation  S-X is  compatible  with
            maintaining the principal accountant's independence.

240.14a-101), or this Item.


ITEM 11. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

    (a)     The  registrant's   principal   executive  and  principal  financial
            officers,  or persons performing  similar functions,  have concluded
            that the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
            in Rule  30a-3(c)  under  the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940,  as
            amended (the "1940 Act") (17 CFR 270.30a-3(c))) are effective, as of
            a date within 90 days of the filing date of the report that includes
            the disclosure required by this paragraph, based on their evaluation
            of these controls and procedures required by Rule 30a-3(b) under the
            1940 Act (17 CFR  270.30a-3(b))  and Rules  13a-15(b)  or  15d-15(b)
            under  the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as  amended  (17 CFR
            240.13a-15(b) or 240.15d-15(b)).

    (b)     There were no  changes in the  registrant's  internal  control  over
            financial  reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the 1940 Act
            (17 CFR 270.30a-3(d))  that occurred during the registrant's  second
            fiscal  quarter  of the  period  covered  by this  report  that  has
            materially  affected,  or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
            the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.
