(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On February 22, 2007, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) of The Phoenix Companies, Inc. (the “Company”) approved an individual performance-based incentive grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to James D. Wehr, a named executive officer of the Company, under The Phoenix Companies, Inc. 2003 Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit and Long-Term Incentive Plan (incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit B to the Company’s Proxy Statement filed March 21, 2003) (the “Plan”). The Committee also determined the performance-based goals that must be achieved for the RSUs to be earned. The grant was made pursuant to the form of agreement attached hereto as exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The RSUs cliff vest upon the completion of a three-year measurement period commencing January 1, 2007 and terminating December 31, 2009, subject to the achievement of certain performance-based goals linked to cumulative new third-party revenue growth of certain designated funds advised by the Company’s indirect subsidiary, Goodwin Capital Advisers, Inc. (“Goodwin”). The achievement of these goals will be determined in the first quarter of 2010. The RSUs are also subject to pro-rated vesting in the event of termination due to death, Disability or Approved Retirement (each as defined in the Plan), in each case subject to adjustment to reflect actual performance results.

For Mr. Wehr to earn the target number of RSUs, determined by dividing the target award value ($500,000) by the Company’s stock price at closing on February 22, 2007 ($14.69) and rounded up to the nearest whole RSU (34,037 RSUs), revenues for the designated funds would need to meet or exceed 120% of Goodwin’s business plan objectives. Mr. Wehr will earn the minimum, or threshold, award of 17,019 RSUs, should the applicable revenues from the designated funds meet or exceed 110% of Goodwin’s business plan objectives. For Mr. Wehr to earn the maximum award of 68,074 RSUs, the applicable revenues from the designated funds would need to meet or exceed 140% of Goodwin’s business plan objectives. Should the applicable revenues from the designated funds fall between Goodwin’s threshold and target revenue objectives, or between Goodwin’s target and maximum revenue objectives, the number of RSUs earned by Mr. Wehr will be interpolated from the number of RSUs that may be earned at those performance levels, respectively.
