Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities will continue to be measured in a manner similar to current U.S. GAAP; however, the amendments require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. Other amendments include changes to the balance sheet presentation and interest income recognition of purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (PCD financial assets).</span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The amendments are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Companies may early adopt this guidance as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments will be adopted following a modified-retrospective approach resulting in a cumulative effect adjustment in retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. Two exceptions to this adoption method are for PCD financial assets and debt securities for which other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) will have been recognized before the effective date. Loans purchased with credit deterioration accounted for under current U.S. GAAP as "purchased credit impaired" (PCI) financial assets will be classified as PCD financial assets at transition and PCD guidance will be applied prospectively. Debt securities that have experienced OTTI before the effective date will follow a prospective adoption method which allows an entity to maintain the same amortized cost basis before and after the effective date.</span></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-left:1px solid #000000;border-right:1px solid #000000;border-top:1px solid #000000;border-bottom:1px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:left;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The Company has identified certain financial instruments in scope of this guidance to include certain fixed maturity securities, loan and loan receivables and reinsurance recoverables (See Notes 3 and 7 for current balances of instruments in scope). The Company is progressing towards updating its credit loss projection models and accounting systems to comply with the required changes in measurement of credit losses. The Company currently expects loans and loan receivables and held-to-maturity fixed maturity securities to be the asset classes most significantly impacted upon adoption of the guidance. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of adoption of this guidance on its financial position, results of operations, and disclosures.</span></div></td></tr></table></div></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:center;font-size:9pt;"><div style="padding-left:0px;text-indent:0px;line-height:normal;padding-top:10px;"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;width:99.62962962962963%;border-collapse:collapse;text-align:left;"><tr><td colspan="3"/></tr><tr><td style="width:20%;"/><td style="width:53%;"/><td style="width:27%;"/></tr><tr><td style="vertical-align:top;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-left:2px solid #000000;border-right:2px solid #000000;border-top:2px solid #000000;border-bottom:2px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:center;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;font-weight:bold;">Standard</span></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-right:2px solid #000000;border-top:2px solid #000000;border-bottom:2px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:center;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;font-weight:bold;">Description</span></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-right:2px solid #000000;border-top:2px solid #000000;border-bottom:2px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:center;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;font-weight:bold;">Effect on Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters</span></div></td></tr><tr><td style="vertical-align:top;border-bottom:1px solid #000000;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-left:1px solid #000000;border-right:1px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:left;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;font-weight:bold;">ASU 2016-02 </span></div><div style="text-align:left;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">Leases</span></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;border-bottom:1px solid #000000;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-left:1px solid #000000;border-right:1px solid #000000;"><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. </span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019, as we do not plan to early adopt. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The Company is electing to use its effective date as its date of initial application. The transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. Because the Company expects to adopt the new standard on January 1, 2019 and use the effective date as the date of initial application, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. </span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company expects to elect the ‘package of practical expedients’, which permits it not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight.</span></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;border-bottom:1px solid #000000;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-left:1px solid #000000;border-right:1px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:left;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The Company has identified certain operating leases in scope of this guidance to include office space and equipment leases (See Note 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2017 Annual Report for current balances of leases in scope). The leases within scope of this guidance will increase the Company's ROU assets and lease liabilities recorded on its statement of financial position, however the Company estimates leases within scope of the guidance to represent less than 1% of its total assets as of September 30, 2018.

The measurement of expected credit losses is amended by replacing the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform about a credit loss. Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities will continue to be measured in a manner similar to current U.S. GAAP; however, the amendments require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. Other amendments include changes to the balance sheet presentation and interest income recognition of purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (PCD financial assets).</span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The amendments are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Companies may early adopt this guidance as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments will be adopted following a modified-retrospective approach resulting in a cumulative effect adjustment in retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. Two exceptions to this adoption method are for PCD financial assets and debt securities for which other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) will have been recognized before the effective date. Loans purchased with credit deterioration accounted for under current U.S. GAAP as "purchased credit impaired" (PCI) financial assets will be classified as PCD financial assets at transition and PCD guidance will be applied prospectively. Debt securities that have experienced OTTI before the effective date will follow a prospective adoption method which allows an entity to maintain the same amortized cost basis before and after the effective date.</span></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-left:1px solid #000000;border-right:1px solid #000000;border-top:1px solid #000000;border-bottom:1px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:left;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The Company has identified certain financial instruments in scope of this guidance to include certain fixed maturity securities, loan and loan receivables and reinsurance recoverables (See Notes 3 and 7 for current balances of instruments in scope). The Company is progressing towards updating its credit loss projection models and accounting systems to comply with the required changes in measurement of credit losses. The Company currently expects loans and loan receivables and held-to-maturity fixed maturity securities to be the asset classes most significantly impacted upon adoption of the guidance.

The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. </span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019, as we do not plan to early adopt. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The Company is electing to use its effective date as its date of initial application. The transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. Because the Company expects to adopt the new standard on January 1, 2019 and use the effective date as the date of initial application, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. </span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;"><br/></span></div><div style="font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company expects to elect the ‘package of practical expedients’, which permits it not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight.</span></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;border-bottom:1px solid #000000;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;border-left:1px solid #000000;border-right:1px solid #000000;"><div style="text-align:left;font-size:9pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9pt;">The Company has identified certain operating leases in scope of this guidance to include office space and equipment leases (See Note 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2017 Annual Report for current balances of leases in scope). The leases within scope of this guidance will increase the Company's ROU assets and lease liabilities recorded on its statement of financial position, however the Company estimates leases within scope of the guidance to represent less than 1% of its total assets as of September 30, 2018. The Company estimates that the adoption of this guidance will not have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or disclosures.</span></div></td></tr></table></div></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;"><br/></span></div>
