Safe Harbor Statement and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain information in this presentation constitutes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking statements are
those not based on historical information, but rather relate to our outlook, future operations, strategies, financial results, or other developments and speak only as of the date made.  These
forward-looking statements, including statements about growth in after-tax operating income per share, anticipated reserve increases, the loss associated with the pension payout, weighted
average risk-based capital ratios and cash and marketable securities, premium income growth, and share repurchases are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, many of
which are beyond our control.  The following factors, in addition to other factors mentioned from time to time, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the
forward-looking statements: (1) unfavorable economic or business conditions, both domestic and foreign; (2) sustained periods of low interest rates; (3) fluctuation in insurance reserve
liabilities and claim payments due to changes in claim incidence, recovery rates, mortality rates, and offsets due to, among other factors, the rate of unemployment and consumer confidence,
the emergence of new diseases, epidemics, or pandemics, new trends and developments in medical treatments, the effectiveness of our claims operational processes, and changes in
government programs; (4) legislative, regulatory, or tax changes, both domestic and foreign, including the effect of potential legislation and increased regulation in the current political
environment; (5) investment results, including, but not limited to, changes in interest rates, defaults, changes in credit spreads, impairments, and the lack of appropriate investments in the
market which can be acquired to match our liabilities; (6) the failure of cyber or other information security systems, as well as the occurrence of events unanticipated in our disaster recovery
systems; (7) ineffectiveness of our derivatives hedging programs due to changes in the economic environment, counterparty risk, ratings downgrades, capital market volatility, changes in
interest rates, and/or regulation; (8) increased competition from other insurers and financial services companies due to industry consolidation, new entrants to our markets, or other factors; (9)
changes in our financial strength and credit ratings; (10) damage to our reputation due to, among other factors, regulatory investigations, legal proceedings, external events, and/or
inadequate or failed internal controls and procedures; (11) actual experience that deviates from our assumptions used in pricing, underwriting, and reserving; (12) actual persistency and/or
sales growth that is higher or lower than projected; (13) changes in demand for our products due to, among other factors, changes in societal attitudes, the rate of unemployment, consumer
confidence, and/or legislative and regulatory changes, including healthcare reform; (14) effectiveness of our risk management program; (15) contingencies and the level and results of
litigation; (16) changes in accounting standards, practices, or policies; (17) fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates; (18) ability to generate sufficient internal liquidity and/or obtain
external financing; (19) availability of reinsurance in the market and the ability of our reinsurers to meet their obligations to us; (20) recoverability and/or realization of the carrying value of our
intangible assets, long-lived assets, and deferred tax assets; and (21) terrorism, both within the U.S. and abroad, ongoing military actions, and heightened security measures in response to
these types of threats.  For further discussion about risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements, see Part I, Item
1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and our subsequently filed Form 10-Qs.  The forward-looking statements in this press release are being made
as of the date of this press release, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement contained herein, even if made available on our
website or otherwise.
In analyzing performance, Unum sometimes uses non-GAAP financial measures that differ from what is reported under GAAP.  This presentation contains non-GAAP financial measures,
including operating earnings per share, operating return on equity, book value per share (excluding accumulated other comprehensive income, or AOCI), and before tax operating
income.  Please refer to the Appendix for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

We are conducting a comprehensive review of all assumptions underlying our Long
Term Care reserves.
Potential GAAP Impacts:
Before-tax charge of $600 million to $800 million anticipated.
Primarily attributable to reduction in the discount rate in response to current low interest rate
environment.
Potential Statutory Impacts:
First Unum (New York) reserve strengthening of approximately $150 million.
Negligible impact on future statutory earnings and free cash flow generation.
