NOTES
                   
                           
Definitions and Presentation
               
                           
"Income (loss) from operations," "operating revenues" and "return on capital" are non-GAAP financial measures and do not replace GAAP
revenues, net income (loss) and return on stockholders' equity.  Detailed reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measure are included in this statistical supplement.
     
                           
We exclude the after-tax effects of the following items from GAAP net income (loss) to arrive at income (loss) from operations:
 
Realized gains and losses associated with the following ("excluded realized gain (loss)"):
   
   
Sale or disposal of securities;
             
   
Impairments of securities;
             
   
Change in the fair value of derivative investments, embedded derivatives within certain reinsurance arrangements and our trading securities;
   
Change in the fair value of the derivatives we own to hedge our guaranteed death benefit ("GDB") riders within our variable annuities, which
     
is referred to as "GDB derivatives results";
           
   
Change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives of our guaranteed living benefit (“GLB”) riders within our variable annuities accounted
     
for under the Derivatives and Hedging and the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topics of the Financial Accounting Standards Board
     
("FASB") Accounting Standars Codification ("ASC") (“embedded derivative reserves”), net of the change in the fair value of the derivatives
     
we own to hedge the changes in the embedded derivative reserves, the net of which is referred to as “GLB net derivative results”; and
   
Changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities related to index call options we may purchase in the future to hedge contract
     
holder index allocations applicable to future reset periods for our indexed annuity products accounted for under the Derivatives and Hedging
     
and the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topics of the FASB ASC (“indexed annuity forward-starting option”).
 
Change in reserves accounted for under the Financial Services - Insurance - Claim Costs and Liabilities for Future Policy Benefits Subtopic of
   
the FASB ASC resulting from benefit ratio unlocking on our GDB and GLB riders ("benefit ratio unlocking");
 
Income (loss) from the initial adoption of new accounting standards;
       
 
Income (loss) from reserve changes (net of related amortization) on business sold through reinsurance;
 
Gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt;
           
 
Losses from the impairment of intangible assets; and
         
 
Income (loss) from discontinued operations.
           
                           
Income (loss) from operations available to common stockholders is net income (loss) available to common stockholders (used in the calculation of
earnings (loss) per share) in accordance with GAAP, excluding the after-tax effects of the items above and the acceleration of our Series B preferred
stock discount as a result of redemption prior to five years from the date of issuance.
   
                           
 
Operating revenues represent GAAP revenues excluding the pre-tax effects of the following items, as applicable:
   
Excluded realized gain (loss);
             
   
Amortization of deferred front-end loads ("DFEL") arising from changes in GDB and GLB benefit ratio unlocking;
   
Amortization of deferred gains arising from the reserve changes on business sold through reinsurance; and
   
Revenue adjustments from the initial adoption of new accounting standards.
     
                           
 
Return on equity measures how efficiently we generate profits from the resources provided by our net assets.  Return on equity is calculated
   
by dividing annualized net income (loss) by average equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI").  Management
   
evaluates return on equity by both including and excluding average goodwill within average equity.
                           
 
Return on capital measures the effectiveness of our use of total capital, which includes equity (excluding accumulated other
   
comprehensive income), debt, capital securities and junior subordinated debentures issued to affiliated trusts.  Return on capital is
   
calculated by dividing annualized income (loss) from operations (after adding back interest expense) by average capital.  The difference
   
between return on capital and return on stockholders' equity represents the effect of leveraging on our consolidated results.
                           
Income (loss) from operations, operating revenues, return on equity (including and excluding average goodwill within average equity), excluding AOCI,
using annualized income (loss) from operations and return on capital are financial measures we use to evaluate and assess our results.  Our management
and Board of Directors believe that these performance measures explain the results of our ongoing businesses in a manner that allows for a better
understanding of the underlying trends in our current business because the excluded items are unpredictable and not necessarily indicative of current
operating fundamentals or future performance of the business segments, and, in most instances, decisions regarding these items do not necessarily relate
to the operations of the individual segments.  In addition, we believe that our definitions of operating revenues and income (loss) from operations
will provide investors with a more valuable measure of our performance because it better reveals trends in our business.
                           
 
Certain operating and statistical measures are included in this report to provide supplemental data regarding the performance of our
   
current business.  These measures include deposits, sales, net flows, first-year premiums, in force and spreads.
 
Sales as reported consist of the following:
           
   
Universal life ("UL") (excluding linked-benefit products) and variable universal life ("VUL"), including corporate-owned life
     
insurance ("COLI") and bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI") - first year commissionable premiums plus 5% of excess premiums
     
received, including an adjustment for internal replacements at approximately 50% of target;
 
   
Whole life and term - 100% of first year paid premiums;
       
   
Linked-benefit - 15% of premium deposits;
           
   
Annuities - deposits from new and existing customers;
         
   
Group Protection - annualized first year premiums from new policies; and
     
                           
Our roll forwards of deferred acquisition costs ("DAC") and value of business acquired ("VOBA"), deferred sales inducements ("DSI") and DFEL
disclose the net impact of prospective and retrospective unlocking on amortization for these items.  This information helps explain a
source of volatility in amortization.
             

 
 

 

     iii
 
Prospective unlocking - In the third quarter of each year, we review and update our assumptions used in projecting our future estimated
   
gross profits ("EGPs") used to amortize DAC, VOBA, DFEL, DSI and the calculations of embedded derivatives and reserves for
   
annuity and life insurance products with certain guarantees.  We may also have prospective unlocking if we experience long-term
   
or significant deviations from expected equity market returns requiring a change to best estimate projections of EGPs and reversion
   
to the mean ("RTM") prospective unlocking of DAC, VOBA, DFEL, DSI and other contract holder funds.  These updates to assumptions
   
result in unlocking that represent an increase or decrease to our carrying value of DAC, VOBA, DFEL and DSI based upon our updated view of
   
future EGPs.  The various assumptions that are reviewed include investment margins, mortality, retention and rider utilization.  In addition, in
   
the third quarter of each year during our annual prospective unlocking review, we may identify and implement actuarial modeling refinements
   
which can result in prospective and retrospective unlocking impacts that impact DAC, VOBA, DSI, DFEL and embedded derivatives and
   
reserves for annuity and life products with living and death benefit guarantee reserves.
   
                           
 
Retrospective unlocking - On a quarterly basis, we “true-up” our models for actual gross profits and in-force experience for the period.
   
To the extent that actual experience differs from previously expected, a positive or negative retrospective adjustment to the
   
amortization of DAC, VOBA, DSI and DFEL is recorded.  This update to the models may generate a change in the amortization rate
   
which results in a catch-up to the cumulative amortization, by recalculating the DAC, VOBA, DSI and DFEL balances assuming that
   
the revised amortization rate had been used since issue.
         
                           
Book value per share excluding AOCI is calculated based upon a non-GAAP financial measure. It is calculated by dividing (a) stockholders' equity
excluding AOCI and Series B preferred stock balances as it is non-convertible (issued and sold to the U.S. Treasury in connection with the Troubled
Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program as part of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008), by (b) common shares outstanding,
assuming conversion of Series A preferred shares.  We provide book value per share excluding AOCI to enable investors to analyze the amount of
our net worth that is attributable primarily to our business operations. We believe book value per share excluding AOCI is useful to investors because it
eliminates the effect of items that can fluctuate significantly from period to period, primarily based on changes in interest rates.  Book value per share
is the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
           
                           
Pre-tax operating margin is calculated as income (loss) from operations before federal income taxes divided by operating revenues.  After-tax operating
margin is calculated as income (loss) from operations divided by operating revenues.
     
                           
We use our prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 35% while taking into account any permanent differences for events recognized differently
in our financial statements and federal income tax returns when reconciling our non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure.
                           
Effective April 30, 2010, we amended our non-director deferred compensation plans to allow participants the option to diversify from LNC stock to
other investment alternatives and to be settled in shares or cash at the participant’s discretion.  As a result of the amendment, we reclassified the cost
basis of deferred units of LNC stock from common stock to other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Consequently changes in the value of
our stock are recorded in underwriting, acquisition, insurance and other expenses on our Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss). When calculating
our weighted-average dilutive shares, we presume the investment option will be settled in cash and exclude the shares from our calculation, unless the
effect of assuming it will be settled in shares ("equity classification") would be more dilutive to our diluted EPS.  The numerator used in the calculation
of our diluted EPS is adjusted down for the removal of the favorable mark-to-market adjustment for deferred units of LNC stock in our non-director
deferred compensation plans if the effect of equity classification would be more dilutive to our diluted EPS.
                           
Throughout the document, "after-DAC" refers to the associated amortization expense of DAC, VOBA, DSI and DFEL and changes in other contract
holder funds and funds withheld reinsurance liabilities.
         
                           
Reclassifications
                 
In addition to the items discussed above, certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassed to the presentation adopted in the current period.
These reclassifications had no effect on net income, income from operations or stockholders' equity in the prior period.

Income from operations includes restructuring charges. See page 5 for detail.
(2)
See page 6 for detail.
(3)
We use our prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 35% while taking into account any permanent differences for events recognized differently in our
 
financial statements and federal income tax returns when reconciling our non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure.
(4)
Includes discontinued operations and the loss on disposal. See Discontinued Operations on page 28 for details.
(5)
The numerator used in the calculation of our diluted EPS is adjusted down for the removal of the favorable mark-to-market adjustment for deferred units of
 
LNC stock in our non-director deferred compensation plans if the effect of equity classification would be more dilutive to our diluted EPS.
(6)
Relates to outstanding stock options under the Delaware Investments U.S. Inc. stock option incentive plan.
(7)
In those periods with a loss from continuing operations, shares used in the earnings per share calculation represent basic shares, since using diluted shares would
 
have been anti-dilutive. This same concept applies to our income from operations as well.

(1)
Represents the net difference between the change in the fair value of the S&P 500 Index® call options that we hold and the change in the fair value of the embedded
 
derivative liabilities of our indexed annuity products.  The change in the fair value of the liability for the embedded derivative represents the amount that is credited to
 
the indexed annuity contract.
                     
(2)
Represents the "risk/profit margin" portion of the attributed GLB rider fees. We have certain GLB variable annuity riders with GWB and GIB features that are
 
embedded derivatives.  We attribute to the embedded derivative the portion of total fees collected from the contract holder that relates to the GLB riders
 
(the “attributed fees”).  These attributed fees represent the present value of future claims expected to be paid for the GLB at the inception of the contract (the “net
 
valuation premium”) plus a margin that a theoretical market participant would include for risk/profit (the “risk/profit margin”).  We include the net valuation
 
premium of the GLB attributed rider fees in excluded realized gain (loss).  For our Retirement Solutions – Annuities and Retirement Solutions –  Defined Contribution
 
segments, the total fees collected from the contract holders in excess of the GLB attributed fees are reported in insurance fees.
(3)
We use our prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 35% while taking into account any permanent differences for events recognized differently in our
 
financial statements and federal income tax returns when reconciling our non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure.
(4)
See page 30 for detail.
                     
(5)
Represents changes in the fair values of certain derivative investments (including the credit default swaps and contingent forwards associated with consolidated
 
VIEs), total return swaps (embedded derivatives that are theoretically included in our various modified coinsurance and coinsurance with funds withheld
 
reinsurance arrangements that have contractual returns related to various assets and liabilities associated with these arrangements) and trading securities.
(6)
Represents the net valuation premium, the change in the fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities of our GLB products, the change in the fair value of the
 
derivative instruments we own to hedge the embedded derivative, the cost of purchasing the derivative instruments, and the associated changes to DAC, VOBA,
 
DSI, and DFEL.
                       
(7)
Represents the change in the fair value of the derivatives we own to hedge the change in the GDB riders.
   
(8)
Represents changes in the fair value of embedded derivative liabilities related to index call options we may purchase in the future to hedge contract holder index
 
allocations applicable to future reset periods for our indexed annuity products.

The numerator used in the calculation of our diluted EPS is adjusted down for the removal of the favorable mark-to-market adjustment for deferred units of LNC stock in
 
our non-director deferred compensation plans if the effect of equity classification would be more dilutive to our diluted EPS.

Relates to outstanding stock options under the Delaware Investments U.S. Inc. stock option incentive plan.
 
(5)
In those periods with a loss from continuing operations, shares used in the earnings per share calculation represent basic shares, since using diluted shares would have been
 
anti-dilutive.

(1) For the annuity products spread, the yield on earning assets is calculated as net investment income on fixed product investment portfolios divided by average invested
 
assets on reserves.  We exclude net investment income earned on investments supporting statutory surplus, reverse repurchase agreement interest expense and
 
inter-segment cash management account interest expense from our yield and spread calculations.  The average crediting rate is calculated using interest credited before
 
DSI amortization, plus the immediate annuity reserve change (included within benefits), divided by average fixed account values net of co-insured account values.  Fixed
 
account values reinsured under modified co-insurance agreements are included in account values for this calculation since assets (and therefore margin) are retained
 
under these agreements.
                     
(2)
Our yields on net investment income have been lowered due to holding higher cash balances related to our short-term strategy during recent volatile markets.  The
 
increased cash and short-term investment balances for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2009, reduced our yields by approximately 5 bps and 20 bps,
 
respectively.  There was no impact for periods in 2010.

Includes the net valuation premium of the GLB attributed rider fees in excluded realized gain (loss).  See note (6) on page 6 for further discussion.

Guaranteed withdrawal benefits include features that offer the contract holder a guarantee equal to the initial deposit (or contract value, if elected after issue), adjusted
 
for any subsequent purchase payments or withdrawals.
               
(8)
For our guaranteed income benefits, we offer other product riders allowing variable annuity contract holders access and control during the income distribution phase of
 
their contract.  This added flexibility allows the contract holder to access the account value for transfers, additional withdrawals and other service features, such as
 
portfolio rebalancing.

(1) For the annuity products spread, the yield on earning assets is calculated as net investment income on fixed product investment portfolios divided by
 
average invested assets on reserves.  We exclude net investment income earned on investments supporting statutory surplus from our spread calculations.
 
The average crediting rate is calculated as interest credited before DSI amortization, plus the immediate annuity reserve change (included within benefits),
 
divided by the average fixed account values, including the fixed portion of variable annuities.
     
(2)
Our yields on net investment income have been lowered due to holding higher cash balances related to our short-term liquidity strategy during recent volatile
 
markets.  The increased cash and short-term investment balances for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2009, reduced our yields by
 
approximately 6 bps and 13 bps, respectively.  There was no impact for periods in 2010.

COLI and BOLI are interest-sensitive and contain both UL and VUL products.
         
(2)
For the interest-sensitive life products spread, the yield on earning assets is calculated as net investment income on fixed product investment portfolios divided by average earning
 
assets.  We exclude net investment income earned on investments supporting statutory surplus and reverse repurchase agreement interest expense from our yield and spread
 
calculations.  The average crediting rate is calculated using interest credited on life products divided by average fixed account values.
(3)
Our yields on net investment income have been lowered due to holding higher cash balances related to our short-term liquidity strategy during recent volatile markets.  The increased
 
cash and short-term investment balances for the three months ended December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2010 reduced our yields by approximately
 
13 bps, 11 bps, 2 bps, and 1 bp, respectively.  There was no impact for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The increased cash and short-term investment balances for the
 
year ended December 31, 2009 and 2010 reduced yields by approximately 8 bps and 2 bps, respectively.
 
(4)
For the traditional life products, the yield on earning assets is calculated as net investment income on traditional investment portfolios divided by average earning assets.  As of
 
December 31, 2010, interest-sensitive products represented approximately 88% of total interest-sensitive and traditional earning assets.
