Important disclosures

This presentation may contain “forward-looking statements”  within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 which,
by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties.  We intend for these forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor
provisions of the federal securities laws relating to forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements include statements relating to
trends in, or representing management’s beliefs about, our future transactions, strategies, operations and financial results, and often contain
words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,”  “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “should” and other similar words or expressions.  
Forward-looking statements are made based upon our current expectations and beliefs concerning trends and future developments and their
potential effects on the company.  They are not guarantees of future performance.  Our actual business, financial condition and results of
operations may differ materially from those suggested by forward-looking statements as a result of risks and uncertainties, which include,
among others:  (i) unfavorable general economic developments including, but not limited to, specific related factors such as the performance of
the debt and equity markets and changes in interest rates; (ii) the effect of continuing adverse capital and credit market conditions on our ability
to meet our liquidity needs, our access to capital and our cost of capital; (iii) the possibility of losses due to defaults by others including, but not
limited to, issuers of fixed income securities; (iv) changes in our investment valuations based on changes in our valuation methodologies,
estimations and assumptions; (v) the effect of guaranteed benefits within our products; (vi) the consequences related to variations in the amount
of our statutory capital due to factors beyond our control; (vii) further downgrades in our debt or financial strength ratings; (viii) the possibility
that mortality rates, persistency rates, funding levels or other factors may differ significantly from our pricing expectations; (ix) the availability,
pricing and terms of reinsurance coverage generally and the inability or unwillingness of our reinsurers to meet their obligations to us
specifically; (x) our dependence on non-affiliated distributors for our product sales; (xi) our dependence on third parties to maintain critical
business and administrative functions; (xii) our ability to attract and retain key personnel in a competitive environment; (xiii) the strong
competition we face in our business from banks, insurance companies and other financial services firms; (xiv) our reliance, as a holding
company, on dividends and other payments from our subsidiaries to meet our financial obligations and pay future dividends, particularly since
our insurance subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends is subject to regulatory restrictions; (xv) the potential need to fund deficiencies in our Closed
Block; (xvi) tax developments that may affect us directly, or indirectly through the cost of, the demand for or profitability of our products or
services; (xvii) the possibility that the actions and initiatives of the U.S. Government, including those that we elect to participate in, may not
improve adverse economic and market conditions generally or our business, financial condition and results of operations specifically (xviii) other
legislative or regulatory developments; (xix) legal or regulatory actions; (xx) changes in accounting standards; (xxi) the potential effects of the
spin-off of our former asset management subsidiary; (xxii) the potential effect of a material weakness in our internal control over financial
reporting on the accuracy of our reported financial results; (xxiii) the risks related to a man-made or natural disaster; and (xxiv) other risks and
uncertainties described herein or in any of our filings with the SEC.  

This information is provided as of September 30, 2009.  We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statement,

Summary

Well diversified and liquid general account investment portfolio, managed by a team with a successful
track record of investing over a variety of market cycles, following a disciplined monitoring process

Approximately 89% of bond investments are investment grade. Emphasis is on liquidity with 71% of
bonds invested in public securities

Strict limits on individual financial exposures that mitigate our loss potential to any one particular
entity; as a result, we have limited exposure to the financial institutions that have been in the news

Net unrealized losses improved by $669 million during the third quarter.  Approximately 56% of
unrealized losses are rated investment grade

Residential mortgage-backed securities exposure is high quality and diversified. Exposure is
concentrated in agency and prime-rated securities with only 2.3% of invested assets in Alt-A and
subprime investments

Commercial mortgage exposure is in highly rated commercial mortgage-backed securities with
minimal direct loan or real estate holdings

No subprime collateralized debt obligations (CDO) exposure.  CDO holdings are backed by bank
loans, investment grade bonds and commercial mortgage-backed securities

No credit default swap (CDS) exposure
