Unum Group Reports Second Quarter 2012 Results

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (August 1, 2012) - Unum Group (NYSE: UNM) today reported net income of $216.4 million ($0.76 per diluted common share) for the second quarter of 2012, compared to net income of $227.6 million ($0.74 per diluted common share) for the second quarter of 2011.

Included in the results for the second quarter of 2012 is a net after-tax loss of $8.9 million ($0.03 per diluted common share) resulting from the combined impact of net realized investment losses on the Company's investment portfolio and the amortization of prior period actuarial losses on the Company's pension plan. This compares to a net after-tax loss of $7.4 million ($0.02 per diluted common share) in the second quarter of 2011.

Adjusting for these items, income on an after-tax basis was $225.3 million ($0.79 per diluted common share) in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $235.0 million ($0.76 per diluted common share) in the second quarter of 2011.

“In spite on the challenging environment, I am generally pleased with the performance of most of our businesses. We continued to generate strong profitability and sales results across much of the Company, while at the same time maintaining a solid investment portfolio and capital position,” said Thomas R. Watjen, president and chief executive officer.

“While remaining solidly profitable, our UK business is still not meeting our expectations, but I am confident in our plans to improve the performance in this business segment.”

RESULTS BY SEGMENT

In the following segment financial data, "operating revenue" excludes net realized investment gains or losses. "Operating income" or "operating loss" excludes net realized investment gains or losses, non-operating retirement-related gains or losses, and income tax.

Unum US Segment

    Unum US reported operating income of $212.7 million in the second quarter of 2012, an increase of 3.5 percent from $205.6 million in the second quarter of 2011. Premium income for the segment increased 4.2 percent to $1,115.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to premium income in the second quarter of 2011 of $1,069.8 million.

Within the Unum US operating segment, the group disability line of business reported a 10.5 percent decline in operating income, with $70.4 million in the second quarter of 2012 compared to $78.7 million in the second quarter of 2011. Premium income in group disability increased 1.7 percent to $516.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $507.4 million in the second quarter of 2011, driven primarily by sales growth and continued strong premium persistency. The benefit ratio for the second quarter of 2012 was 84.7 percent, compared to 84.4 percent in the second quarter of 2011, as a result of unfavorable risk results in group short-term disability resulting from a higher level of claim incidence and higher average weekly indemnities. Group long-term disability risk results were slightly favorable in the quarter due to higher claim recoveries, partially offset by an increase in claim incidence relative to the year-ago period. Group long-term disability sales declined 6.0 percent to $36.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $38.3 million in the second quarter of 2011. Group short-term disability sales increased 33.3 percent to $23.6 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $17.7 million in the second quarter of 2011. Premium persistency in the group long-term disability line of business was 91.7 percent through the first six months of 2012, compared to 89.8 percent through the first six months of

2011. Case persistency for this line was 88.3 percent through the first six months of 2012, compared to 89.1 percent through the first six months of 2011. Premium persistency in the group short-term disability line of business was 89.8 percent through the first six months of 2012, compared to 90.7 percent through the first six months of 2011. Case persistency for the short-term disability line was 87.8 percent through the first six months of 2012, compared to 88.1 percent through the first six months of 2011.

The group life and accidental death and dismemberment line of business reported a 10.2 percent increase in operating income to $57.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $52.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. Premium income for this line of business increased 7.2 percent to $322.9 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $301.1 million in the second quarter of 2011, reflecting higher sales and premium persistency. The benefit ratio in the second quarter of 2012 was 71.9 percent, compared to 70.3 percent in the second quarter of 2011, reflecting a higher average claim size which was offset slightly by a lower claim incidence rate for group life. Sales of group life and accidental death and dismemberment products increased 12.1 percent in the second quarter of 2012 to $50.1 million from $44.7 million in the second quarter of 2011. Premium persistency in the group life line of business was 91.6 percent through the first six months of 2012, compared to 87.3 percent through the first six months of 2011. Case persistency in the group life line of business through the first six months of 2012, at 88.1 percent, was down slightly from 88.6 through the first six months of 2011.

The supplemental and voluntary line of business reported a 13.5 percent increase in operating income to $85.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $74.9 million in the second quarter of 2011. The increase was driven by strong results from both the voluntary benefits and individual disability - recently issued lines of business. Premium income for this line of business increased 5.7 percent to $276.1 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $261.3 million in the second

quarter of 2011, primarily reflecting higher sales in the voluntary benefits line of business. The interest adjusted loss ratio for the individual disability - recently issued line of business in the second quarter of 2012 increased slightly to 30.8 percent from 30.7 percent in the second quarter of 2011, as an increase in reserves for existing claims was mostly offset by a lower paid claim incidence rate and higher claim recoveries. The benefit ratio for voluntary benefits decreased to 46.8 percent in the second quarter of 2012 from 50.3 percent in the second quarter of 2011 due primarily to higher premium income, a lower claim prevalence rate, and a lower average claim size for voluntary disability. Also favorably impacting voluntary benefits risk metrics for the second quarter of 2012 was the release of active life reserves associated with a voluntary benefits large case customer who terminated the existing individual contracts and bought voluntary group coverage during the second quarter of 2012. Sales in the individual disability - recently issued line of business increased 13.3 percent in the second quarter of 2012 to $15.3 million. Relative to the second quarter of 2011, sales in the voluntary benefits line of business increased 8.0 percent in the second quarter of 2012 to $36.6 million.

Unum UK Segment

Unum UK reported operating income of $30.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, a decrease of 45.7 percent from $55.2 million in the second quarter of 2011. In local currency, operating income for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 43.8 percent, to £19.1 million from £34.0 million in the second quarter of 2011.

Premium income declined 1.5 percent to $173.2 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $175.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. In local currency, premium income increased 1.5 percent to £109.4 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to £107.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. The benefit ratio in the second quarter of 2012 was 85.4 percent, compared to 69.8 percent in the comparable quarter in 2011. The higher benefit ratio in the second quarter of 2012

UNUM IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK AND MARKETING BRAND OF UNUM GROUP AND ITS INSURING SUBSIDIARIES.

reflects unfavorable risk experience in both group disability and group life. The unfavorable risk experience in group disability resulted from higher new claims due to a lower level of declines, a higher average claim size, and weaker claim recoveries, while the unfavorable risk experience in group life resulted from a higher average claim size and higher claim volumes in the second quarter of 2012 relative to the second quarter of 2011.

Persistency in the group long-term disability line of business was 84.1 percent through the first six months of 2012, compared to 85.0 percent through the first six months of 2011. Persistency in the group life line of business was 82.4 percent through the first six months of 2012, compared to 87.4 percent through the first six months of 2011. Sales increased 1.3 percent to $24.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $23.7 million in the second quarter of 2011. In local currency, sales for the second quarter of 2012 increased 5.5 percent to £15.3 million, compared to £14.5 million in the second quarter of 2011.

Colonial Life Segment

Colonial Life reported a 6.0 percent decline in operating income to $67.6 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $71.9 million in the second quarter of 2011, with a decrease in overall net investment income resulting from lower miscellaneous investment income during the second quarter of 2012 as well as a higher benefit ratio in the current year quarter.

Premium income for the second quarter of 2012 increased 5.3 percent to $296.9 million, compared to $282.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. The benefit ratio in the second quarter of 2012 was 52.5 percent, compared to 51.2 percent for the same period in 2011. The accident, sickness, and disability benefit ratio declined slightly compared to the same period of 2011 due to favorable claim experience in the disability product line. Risk results for the cancer and critical illness line of business were less favorable than in the second quarter of 2011 due to an

UNUM IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK AND MARKETING BRAND OF UNUM GROUP AND ITS INSURING SUBSIDIARIES.

increase in active life reserves resulting from favorable persistency. The benefit ratio in the life line of business increased due to unfavorable mortality experience in our traditional product line.

Sales increased 0.1 percent to $85.8 million in the second quarter of 2012 from $85.7 million in the second quarter of 2011, as an increase in existing account sales was mostly offset by a decrease in new account sales. Commercial market sales in the second quarter of 2012 were higher than the same period of 2011, while sales in the public sector were lower in the second quarter of 2012 compared with the same period of 2011. The number of new accounts decreased 2.1 percent in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011, while the average new case size was 9.1 percent lower.

Closed Block Segment

The Closed Block segment reported operating income of $25.7 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $30.4 million in the second quarter of 2011, driven by a decline in income in the long-term care line of business, partially offset by higher income from the individual disability line of business.

Premium income for the individual disability line of business declined 6.0 percent in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the comparable year-ago quarter, primarily reflecting the expected run-off of this block of business. The interest adjusted loss ratio for this line of business was 82.7 percent in the second quarter of 2012, compared to 84.3 percent in the second quarter of 2011, reflecting higher claim recoveries, partially offset by higher claim incidence rates.  

Premium income for the long-term care line of business increased 4.0 percent to $156.9 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to $150.8 million in the second quarter of 2011, driven by strong premium persistency and issuances of group long-term care policies. While the Company announced in the first quarter of 2012 that it would discontinue

UNUM IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK AND MARKETING BRAND OF UNUM GROUP AND ITS INSURING SUBSIDIARIES.

sales of new long-term care business, there were several group cases which were already in the quoting and/or underwriting process for which policies have now been issued. The interest adjusted loss ratio for long-term care increased to 87.8 percent in the second quarter of 2012 from 84.3 percent in the second quarter of 2011, due to higher paid claim incidence rates and higher reserves for new and existing claims.

Corporate Segment

The Corporate segment reported an operating loss of $25.9 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared to a loss of $17.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. The higher operating loss in the second quarter of 2012 was driven primarily by lower net investment income and slightly higher expenses due to the impairment of a long-lived fixed asset during the quarter. Net investment income was lower in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011 due to lower asset levels, a lower proportion of assets invested at long-term interest rates, and a decrease in investment income attributable to tax-credit partnerships. However, the negative impact on net investment income from the tax-credit partnerships was offset by a lower income tax rate due to the tax benefits recognized as a result of these investments.

OTHER INFORMATION

Shares Outstanding

The Company's average number of shares outstanding, assuming dilution, was 283.7 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared to 307.4 million for the second quarter of 2011.

UNUM IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK AND MARKETING BRAND OF UNUM GROUP AND ITS INSURING SUBSIDIARIES.

Share Repurchase Authorization

The Company announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a $750 million share repurchase program with an expiration date in January 2014. This new authorization supersedes and replaces the previous authorization for $1 billion that was scheduled to expire in August 2012.

Capital Management

At June 30, 2012, the weighted average risk-based capital for the Company's traditional US insurance companies was approximately 404 percent; leverage was 23.3 percent; and cash and marketable securities in the holding companies equaled $564 million.

Leverage is measured as total debt to total capital, which the Company defines as debt plus stockholders' equity, excluding the net unrealized gain or loss on securities and the net gain or loss on cash flow hedges. Leverage also excludes the non-recourse debt and associated capital of Tailwind Holdings, LLC and Northwind Holdings, LLC and the short-term debt arising from securities lending agreements.

Tax Rate

The Company's tax rate in the second quarter of 2012 was lower than the second quarter of 2011 due primarily to the release of a tax liability related to unrecognized tax benefits.

Book Value

Book value per common share as of June 30, 2012 was $29.94, compared to $28.41 at June 30, 2011.

Outlook

The Company anticipates growth in after-tax operating income per share for full year 2012 to be slightly below the range of six percent to twelve percent, including the effect of expected share repurchases.

UNUM IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK AND MARKETING BRAND OF UNUM GROUP AND ITS INSURING SUBSIDIARIES.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION

The Company analyzes its performance using non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes operating income or loss which excludes the specified items listed in its reconciliation is a better performance measure and a better indicator of the profitability and underlying trends in its business. Realized investment gains or losses depend on market conditions and do not necessarily relate to decisions regarding the underlying business of the Company's segments. The Company's investment focus is on investment income to support its insurance liabilities as opposed to the generation of realized investment gains or losses. Although the Company may experience realized investment gains or losses which will affect future earnings levels, a long-term focus is necessary to maintain profitability over the life of the business since the Company's underlying business is long-term in nature, and the Company needs to earn the interest rates assumed in calculating its liabilities. Certain components of the net periodic benefit cost for the Company's pensions and other postretirement benefit plans, namely the amortization of prior period actuarial gains or losses, are primarily driven by market performance and are not indicative of the operational results of the Company's businesses. The Company believes that excluding the amortization of prior period gains or losses from operating income by segment provides investors with additional information for comparison and analysis of operating results. However, although the Company manages its non-operating retirement-related gains or losses separately from the operational performance of its business, these gains or losses impact the overall profitability of the Company and will increase or decrease over time, depending on market conditions and the resulting impact on the actuarial gains or losses in the Company's pensions and other postretirement benefit plans. The Company believes leverage excluding the non-recourse debt of Northwind and Tailwind, the short-term debt arising from securities lending agreements, and the unrealized gains and losses on securities and the net gain or loss on cash flow hedges, which also tend to fluctuate depending on market conditions and general economic

UNUM IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK AND MARKETING BRAND OF UNUM GROUP AND ITS INSURING SUBSIDIARIES.

trends, is an important measure. For reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, refer to the attached digest of earnings.

Effective January 1, 2012 we adopted an accounting standards update regarding the capitalization of costs associated with the acquisition of insurance contracts (ASU 2010-26) and applied the amendments retrospectively, adjusting all prior period information presented in this statistical supplement, as applicable.

Our reporting segments are comprised of Unum US, Unum UK, Colonial Life, Closed Block, and Corporate. Effective with the fourth quarter of 2011 we modified our reporting segments to reclassify our long-term care products from the Unum US segment to the Closed Block segment.  We also reclassified our other insurance products not actively marketed which were previously reported in the Corporate and Other segment to the Closed Block segment. Also, we previously allocated the amortization of prior period actuarial gains or losses, a component of the net periodic benefit costs for our pensions and other postretirement benefit plans, to our Corporate segment. During the first quarter of 2012, we determined that we would modify our segment reporting, effective January 1, 2012, to exclude the amortization of prior period actuarial gains or losses from operating income or operating loss by segment. Prior period segment results have been adjusted to conform to these changes.

2011

Year ended 12/31/2011 results include the following:

• A deferred acquisition costs impairment charge of $196.0 million before tax and $127.5 million after tax related to our long-term care closed block business.

• A reserve charge of $573.6 million before tax and $372.8 million after tax related to our long-term care closed block business.

• A reserve charge of $183.5 million before tax and $119.3 million after tax related to our individual disability closed block business.

• An income tax benefit of $41.3 million resulting from the settlement of our appeal to the Internal Revenue Service related to tax years 1996 to 2004.

• An income tax charge of $18.6 million resulting from the repatriation of dividends from our U.K. subsidiaries.

2010

Year ended 12/31/2010 results include a tax charge of $10.2 million to reflect the impact of a tax law change.

Notes to Statistical Supplement

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We analyze our Company's performance using non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain items and the related tax thereon from net income. We believe operating income or loss excluding realized investment gains or losses and non-operating retirement-related gains or losses, both of which are recurring, is a better performance measure and a better indicator of the profitability and underlying trends in our business. Both realized investment gains or losses and non-operating retirement-related gains or losses depend on market conditions and do not necessarily relate to decisions regarding the underlying business of our Company. The exclusion of these items from our performance does not replace net income or net loss as a measure of our overall profitability. We also believe book value per common share excluding the components of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, certain of which tend to fluctuate depending on market conditions and general economic trends, are important measures.

2012 Significant Transactions and Events

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 944 "Financial Services - Insurance”

In October 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an update to address the diversity in practice regarding the interpretation of which costs relating to the acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts qualify as deferred acquisition costs.  The amendments in the update require that only incremental direct costs associated with the successful acquisition of a new or renewal insurance contract can be capitalized. All other costs are to be expensed as incurred. We adopted this update effective January 1, 2012 and applied the amendments retrospectively, adjusting all prior periods.

Financing

At June 30, 2012, short-term debt consisted of $467.1 million of securities lending agreements. We also made principal payments of $29.2 million and $5.0 million on our senior secured non-recourse floating rate notes issued by Northwind Holdings, LLC (Northwind) and Tailwind Holdings, LLC (Tailwind), respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Share Repurchase Program

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased 6.0 million and 13.5 million shares on the open market at a cost of $125.1 million and $300.3 million, respectively, including commissions of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, under our February 2011 $1.0 billion stock repurchase program. The dollar value of shares remaining under the $1.0 billion repurchase program was $224.7 million at June 30, 2012.

In July 2012, our board of directors authorized a $750.0 million share repurchase program with an expiration date of January 2014. This program superseded and replaced the February 2011 $1.0 billion share repurchase program.

2011 Significant Transactions and Events

Conclusion of Long-term Care Strategic Review

Following a comprehensive and strategic review of our long-term care business, in February 2012 we announced that we would discontinue selling group long-term care.  We discontinued selling individual long-term care during 2009. Because both group and individual long-term care are now considered closed blocks of business, effective

(continued on next page) 15

December 31, 2011, we reclassified our long-term care products from the Unum US segment to the Closed Block segment.  We also reclassified our other insurance

products not actively marketed, including individual life and corporate-owned life insurance, reinsurance pools and management operations, group pension, health insurance, and individual annuities, which were previously reported in the Corporate and Other segment to the Closed Block segment. The inclusion of all closed blocks of business into one operating segment aligns with our reporting and monitoring of our closed blocks of business within a discrete segment and is consistent with our separation of these blocks of business from the lines of business which actively market new products.  Prior period segment results have been restated to reflect these changes in our reporting classifications.

As part of the strategic review, and as is typical in the fourth quarter of each year, we analyzed our reserve assumptions for long-term care in conjunction with our annual loss recognition testing. We generally perform loss recognition tests on our deferred acquisition costs and policy reserves in the fourth quarter of each year, but more frequently if appropriate, using best estimate assumptions as of the date of the test. Included in the analysis was a review of our reserve discount rate assumptions and mortality and morbidity assumptions. Our analysis of reserve discount rate assumptions considered the significant decline in long-term interest rates which occurred late in the third quarter of 2011 due to the European Union debt crisis and the Federal Reserve's actions, including the announcement of "Operation Twist." We also considered an updated industry study for long-term care experience which was made available mid-year 2011 from the Society of Actuaries. Our analysis of this study, which was completed during the fourth quarter of 2011, showed that lower termination rates than we had previously assumed were beginning to emerge in industry and in our own company experience. Based on our analysis, as of December 31, 2011 we lowered the discount rate to reflect the low interest rate environment and our expectation of future investment portfolio yield rates. We also changed our mortality assumptions to reflect emerging experience due to an improvement in life expectancies which increases the ultimate number of people who will utilize long-term care benefits and also lengthens the amount of time a claimant receives long-term care benefits.  We changed our morbidity assumptions to reflect emerging industry experience as well as our own company experience. While our morbidity experience is still emerging and is not fully credible, we modified our assumptions to align more closely with the recently published industry study. Using our revised best estimate assumptions, as of December 31, 2011 we determined that our deferred acquisition costs of $196.0 million were not recoverable and that our policy and claim reserves should be increased by $573.6 million to reflect our current estimate of future benefit obligations. These charges decreased our 2011 net income by $500.3 million. The increase in reserves represented a 10.5 percent increase in long-term care policy and claim reserves as of December 31, 2011, which equaled $5.4 billion subsequent to the charge. 

Claim Reserve Increase for Individual Disability Closed Block Business

Claim reserves supporting our individual disability closed block of business are calculated using assumptions based on actual experience believed to be currently appropriate. Claim reserves are subject to revision as current claim experience emerges and alters our view of future expectations. Claim resolution rates, which measure the resolution of claims from recovery, deaths, settlements, and benefit expirations, are very sensitive to operational and environmental changes and can be volatile. Our claim resolution rate assumption used in determining reserves is our expectation of the resolution rate we will experience over the life of the block of business. We are now able, with a higher degree of confidence, to assess our own experience for older ages in our long duration lifetime claim block as our data has become credible. There is very little industry experience for lifetime disability benefits, as our insurance companies were the primary disability companies in the insurance industry at the time lifetime disability benefits were offered. These benefits were offered during the 1980s and 1990s, recent enough such that claimants are just reaching the older ages and providing us with data to build our claim experience base. Emerging experience indicates a longer life expectancy for our older age, longer duration disabled claimants, which lengthens the time a claimant receives disability benefits. As a result of this experience, as of December 31, 2011 we adjusted our mortality assumption within our claim resolution rate assumption and, as a result, increased our claim reserves for our individual disability closed block of business by $183.5 million and decreased net income by $119.3 million. The increase in reserves represented a 1.5 percent increase in individual disability policy and claim reserves as of December 31, 2011, which equaled $11.9 billion subsequent to the charge. 

Share Repurchase Program

In February 2011, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of Unum Group's common stock, in addition to the amount remaining to be repurchased under the May 2010 $500.0 million authorization. The $1.0 billion share repurchase program had an expiration date of August 2012.

(continued on next page) 15.1

In February 2011, we repurchased 7.1 million shares, at a cost of $200.0 million, using an accelerated repurchase agreement with a financial counterparty. As part of this transaction, we simultaneously entered into a forward contract indexed to the price of Unum Group common stock, which subjected the transaction to a future price adjustment. Under the terms of the repurchase agreement, we were to receive, or be required to pay, a price adjustment based on the volume weighted average price of Unum Group common stock during the term of the agreement, less a discount. Any price adjustment payable to us was to be settled in shares of Unum Group common stock. Any price adjustment we would have been required to pay would have been settled in either cash or common stock at our option. The final price adjustment settlement occurred in March 2011, resulting in the delivery to us of 0.6 million additional shares. In total, we repurchased and retired 7.7 million shares pursuant to the accelerated repurchase agreement, which completed the May 2010 $500.0 million repurchase authorization and initiated the $1.0 billion repurchase program.

In addition to these repurchases, during 2011, we repurchased an additional 17.7 million shares on the open market at a cost of $419.9 million, including commissions of $0.3 million. The dollar value of shares remaining under the $1.0 billion repurchase program at December 31, 2011 was $524.7 million.

Pursuant to these repurchase programs, we retired 7.7 million shares during 2011. All other repurchased shares are classified as treasury stock and accounted for using the cost method.

Income Tax

Our income tax for 2011 includes $41.3 million of tax benefits recognized due to a final settlement with the IRS with respect to our appeal of audit adjustments for the tax years 1996 to 2004. Our income tax for 2011 was unfavorably impacted by an $18.6 million tax charge related to the repatriation of £150.0 million of dividends from our U.K. subsidiaries.

Financing

During 2011, the remaining $225.1 million of our 7.625% senior notes due March 2011 matured. We also made principal payments of $74.4 million and $10.0 million on our senior secured non-recourse floating rate notes issued by Northwind and Tailwind, respectively, during 2011. At December 31, 2011, short-term debt consisted of $312.3 million of securities lending agreements.

2010 Significant Transactions and Events

Share Repurchase Program

InMay 2010, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500.0 million of Unum Group's common stock. During 2010, we repurchased 16.4 million shares, at a cost of $356.0 million under this share repurchase program.

Financing

In 2010, we issued $400.0 million of unsecured senior notes in a public offering.  These notes, due in 2020, bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.625% and are payable semi-annually.

During 2010, we made principal payments of $58.3 million and $10.0 million on our senior secured non-recourse floating rate notes issued by Northwind and Tailwind, respectively. We also purchased and retired $10.0 million of our 7.08% medium-term notes due 2024.

Tax Law Change

In March 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 were signed into law.  Among other things, the new legislation reduces the tax benefits available to an employer that receives a postretirement prescription drug coverage subsidy from the federal government under the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003.  Under the new legislation, to the extent our future postretirement prescription drug coverage expenses are reimbursed under the subsidy program, the expenses covered by the subsidy will no longer be tax deductible after 2012.  Employers that receive the subsidy must recognize the deferred tax effects relating to the future postretirement prescription drug coverage in the period the legislation was enacted.  Our income tax expense for 2010 includes a non-cash tax charge of $10.2 million to reflect the impact of the tax law change.

2009 Significant Transactions and Events

Financing

In September 2009, we issued $350.0 million of unsecured senior notes in a public offering. These notes, due in 2016, bear interest at a fixed rate of 7.125% and are payable semi-annually.

During 2009, we made principal payments of $48.0 million and $10.0 million on our senior secured non-recourse variable rate notes issued by Northwind and Tailwind, respectively. We also purchased and retired the remaining $132.2 million of our 5.859% senior notes due May 2009, $1.2 million aggregate principal of our 7.19% medium-term notes due 2028, and $0.6 million aggregate principal of our 6.75% notes due 2028.

ASC 320 “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities”

In April 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard, now included in ASC 320, which amended the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities and expands and increases the frequency of previously existing disclosures for other-than-temporary impairments. The measure of impairment remains fair value. Under the standard, an other-than-temporary impairment must be recognized in earnings for a debt security in an unrealized loss position when an entity either (a) has the intent to sell the debt security or (b) more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. We adopted this standard effective April 1, 2009. The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this standard increased the April 1, 2009 opening balance of retained earnings $14.3 million, net of tax of $7.7 million, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
