Explanation of Responses:
1. Reflects (i) the acquisition of restricted stock units (RSUs) in Table I and (ii) the disposition of restricted share equivalents (RSEs) in Table II (i.e., Phantom Stock Units) that were awarded to the reporting person on August 11, 2005. The RSEs were cancelled by mutual agreement of the reporting person and Cigna in exchange for an award of an equal number of RSUs. The RSEs provided for vesting upon nine years of service, age 65 or change of control; the RSU vesting is identical. The RSEs vested on February 11, 2014, and, accordingly, the RSUs were vested at time of award. Upon separation from service, the RSEs would have settled in cash in the amount equal to the value of Cigna's stock price on the separation date multiplied by 13,500. Under the terms of the RSUs, upon separation, the reporting person will instead receive 13,500 shares of Cigna stock. Other than being stock-settled, the terms of the RSUs are identical to the terms of the RSEs.
2. The reporting person's economic interest in Cigna securities also includes other common stock equivalents, the value of which is tied directly to the value of Cigna stock. Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Table I excludes these common stock equivalents because they are settled in cash, rather than Cigna stock, upon separation from service. For more information regarding these securities, please see pages 32 and 83 of Cigna's proxy statement filed with the SEC on March 14, 2014.
