Some of the pending matters have been filed as purported class actions and some actions have been filed in certain jurisdictions that permit punitive damage awards that are disproportionate to the actual damages incurred.  The amounts sought in certain of these actions are often large or indeterminate and the ultimate outcome of certain actions is difficult to predict.  In the event of an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters, there is a possibility that the ultimate liability may be in excess of the liabilities we have established and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.  In addition, the resolution of pending or future litigation may involve modifications to the terms of outstanding insurance policies or could impact the timing and amount of rate increases, which could adversely affect the future profitability of the related insurance policies.  Based upon information presently available, and in light of legal, factual and other defenses available to the Company and its subsidiaries, the Company does not believe that it is probable that the ultimate liability from either pending or threatened legal actions, after consideration of existing loss provisions, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition, operating results or cash flows. However, given the inherent difficulty in predicting the outcome of legal proceedings, there exists the possibility such legal actions could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition, operating results or cash flows.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In addition to the inherent difficulty of predicting litigation outcomes, particularly those that will be decided by a jury, many of the matters specifically identified below purport to seek substantial or an unspecified amount of damages for unsubstantiated conduct spanning several years based on complex legal theories and damages models. The alleged damages typically are indeterminate or not factually supported in the complaint, and, in any event, the Company's experience indicates that monetary demands for damages often bear little relation to the ultimate loss. In some cases, plaintiffs are seeking to certify classes in the litigation and class certification either has been denied or is pending and we have filed oppositions to class certification or sought to decertify a prior class certification. In addition, for many of these cases: (i) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (ii) there are significant factual issues to be resolved; and/or (iii) there are novel legal issues presented. Accordingly, the Company can not reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss in excess of amounts accrued, if any, or predict the timing of the eventual resolution of these matters.  The Company reviews these matters on an ongoing basis.  When assessing reasonably possible and probable outcomes, the Company bases its assessment on the expected ultimate outcome following all appeals.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Securities Litigation</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On June 2, 2010, a purported shareholder derivative complaint was filed in the Marion County Circuit/Superior Court, Indiana, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">William T. Carter, derivatively on behalf of CNO Financial Group, Inc. v. R. Glenn Hilliard, Donna A. James, R. Keith Long, Debra J. Perry, C. James Prieur, Neal C. Schneider, Michael T. Tokarz, John G. Turner, William Kirsch, Eugene Bullis, Michael Dubes, James Hohmann, Edward Bonach, Ali Inanilan, and John Wells, and CNO Financial Group, Inc., Cause No. 49D10 10 06 PL 024523, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">on behalf of nominal defendant CNO Financial Group, Inc. against certain current and/or former members of its Board of Directors and executive officers seeking to remedy defendant's alleged breaches of fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment from August 2005 to the present.  On November 1, 2010, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint.  The allegations in the complaint are similar to those in the purported class action complaint that had been filed in </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Plumbers and Pipefitters Local Union No. 719 Pension Trust Fund, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated v. Conseco, Inc., et al.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, which was dismissed with prejudice in 2011 after the courts granted our motion to dismiss.  On December 17, 2010, we filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint.  On June 2, 2011, the court granted our motion to dismiss.

Yue, M. D. on behalf of the class of all others similarly situated, and on behalf of the General Public v. Conseco Life Insurance Company, successor to Philadelphia Life Insurance Company and formerly known as Massachusetts General Life Insurance Company, Cause No. CV08-01506 CAS. </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> Plaintiff in this putative class action owns a Valulife universal life policy insuring the life of Ruth S. Yue originally issued by Massachusetts General Life Insurance Company in 1995.  Plaintiff is claiming breach of contract on behalf of the proposed national class and seeks injunctive and restitutionary relief pursuant to California Business & Professions Code Section 17200 and declaratory relief.  The putative class consists of all owners of Valulife and Valuterm universal life insurance policies issued by either Massachusetts General or Philadelphia Life and that were later acquired and serviced by Conseco Life.  Plaintiff alleges that members of the class will be damaged by increases in the cost of insurance (a non-guaranteed element ("NGE")) that are set to take place in the twenty first policy year of Valulife and Valuterm policies. No such increases have yet been applied to the subject policies.  During 2010, Conseco Life voluntarily agreed not to implement the cost of insurance rate increase at issue in this litigation and is following a process with respect to any future cost of insurance rate increases as set forth in the regulatory settlement agreement described below.  Plaintiff filed a motion for certification of a nationwide class and a California state class.  On December 7, 2009, the court granted that motion. On October 8, 2010, the court dismissed the causes of actions alleged in the California state class.  On January 19, 2011, the court granted the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment as to the declaratory relief claim and on February 2, 2011, the court issued an advisory opinion, in the form of a declaratory judgment, as to what, in its view, Conseco Life could consider in implementing future cost of insurance rate increases related to its Valulife and Valuterm block of policies.  Conseco Life is appealing the court's January 19, 2011 decision and the plaintiff is appealing the court's decision to dismiss the California causes of action.  These appeals are pending. We believe this case is without merit, and intend to defend it vigorously.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On November 15, 2011, a second complaint was filed by Dr. Yue in the United States District Court for the Central District on California, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Celedonia X. Yue, M. D. on behalf of the class of all others similarly situated, and on behalf of the General Public v. Conseco Life Insurance Company, Cause No. CV11-9506 AHM (SHx),</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> involving the same Valulife universal life policy described in the preceding paragraph. Plaintiff, for herself and on behalf of proposed members of a national class and a California class is claiming breach of contract, injunctive and restitutionary relief pursuant to California Business & Professions Code Section 17200, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, declaratory relief, and temporary, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief. The putative class consists of all owners and former owners of Valulife and Valuterm universal life insurance policies issued by either Massachusetts General or Philadelphia Life and that were later acquired and serviced by Conseco Life. Plaintiff alleges that members of the classes will be damaged by increases in the cost of insurance (a NGE) that took place on or about November 1, 2011. Plaintiff filed a motion for a preliminary injunction and a motion for certification of a California class on which hearing is set for February 27, 2012.

Nicholas, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated v. Conseco Life Insurance Company, Cause No. 12cv845.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> Plaintiff in this putative class action owns a Valulife universal life policy insuring Plaintiff's life originally issued by Massachusetts General Life Insurance Company in 1991. Plaintiff is claiming breach of contract on behalf of the proposed national class and seeks declaratory, injunctive, and supplemental relief. The putative class consists of all persons who own or have owned one or more universal life policies issued by Conseco Life Insurance Company which provide that the cost of insurance rates will be determined based upon expectations as to future mortality experience and who have experienced an increase in the cost of insurance rates. Plaintiff alleges that members of the class will be damaged by cost of insurance charges that were increased due to general economic downturn, Conseco Life's diminished investment yields, and mounting policy losses.

Conseco, Inc. and Conseco Life Insurance Company Case No. 3:08-cv-05746.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">  The plaintiffs allege that Conseco Life and Conseco, Inc. committed breach of contract and insurance bad faith and violated various consumer protection statutes in the administration of various interest sensitive whole life products sold primarily under the name “Lifetrend” by requiring the payment of additional cash amounts to maintain the policies in force and by making changes to certain NGEs in their policies.  On April 23, 2009, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint adding the additional counts of breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, conversion and declaratory relief.  On May 29, 2009, Conseco, Inc. and Conseco Life filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On July 29, 2009, the court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss.  The court dismissed the allegations that Conseco Life violated various consumer protection statutes, the breach of fiduciary duty count, and dismissed Conseco, Inc. for lack of personal jurisdiction.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On July 2, 2009, a purported class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Bill W. McFarland, and all those similarly situated v. Conseco Life Insurance Company, Case No. 3:09-cv-598-J-32MCR.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">  The plaintiff alleges that Conseco Life committed breach of contract and has been unjustly enriched in the administration, including changes to certain NGEs, of various interest sensitive whole life products sold primarily under the name “Lifetrend.” The plaintiff seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages and attorney fees. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Conseco Life filed a motion with the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (“MDL”), seeking the establishment of an MDL proceeding consolidating the Brady case and the McFarland case into a single action.  On February 3, 2010, the Judicial Panel on MDL ordered these cases be consolidated for pretrial proceedings in the Northern District of California Federal Court. On July 7, 2010, plaintiffs filed an amended motion for class certification of a nationwide class and a California state class.  On October 6, 2010, the court granted the motion for certification of a nationwide class and denied the motion for certification of a California state class.  Conseco Life filed a motion to decertify the nationwide class on July 1, 2011. On December 20, 2011, the court issued an order denying Conseco Life's motion to decertify the class as to current policyholders, but granted the motion to decertify as to former policyholders. Trial in the MDL proceeding has been set for March 25, 2013.  We believe these cases are without merit and intend to defend them vigorously. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Other Litigation</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On December 8, 2008, a purported Florida state class action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Sydelle Ruderman individually and on behalf of all other similarly situated v. Washington National Insurance Company, Case No. 08-23401-CIV-Cohn/Selzer.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> The plaintiff alleges that the inflation escalation rider on her policy of long-term care insurance operates to increase the policy's lifetime maximum benefit, and that Washington National Insurance Company breached the contract by stopping her benefits when they reached the lifetime maximum.  The Company takes the position that the inflation escalator only affects the per day maximum benefit.  The Plaintiff filed a motion for class certification, and the motion has been fully briefed by both sides.  The court has not yet ruled on the motion or set it for hearing. Additional parties have asked the court to allow them to intervene in the action, and on January 5, 2010, the court granted the motion to intervene and granted the plaintiff's motion for class certification.  The court certified a (B) (3) Florida state class alleging damages and a (B) (2) Florida state class alleging injunctive relief.  The parties reached a settlement of the (B) (3) class in 2010, which has been implemented. The amount recognized in 2010 related to the settlement in principle was not significant to the Company's consolidated financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. The plaintiff filed a motion for summary judgment as to the (B) (2) class which was granted by the court on September 8, 2010.  The Company has appealed the court's decision and the appeal is pending.  We believe the action is without merit, and intend to defend it vigorously.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:13px;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On January 26, 2009, a purported class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Samuel Rowe and Estella Rowe, individually and on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated v. Bankers Life & Casualty Company and Bankers Life Insurance Company of Illinois, Case No. 09CV491.</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">  The plaintiffs are alleging violation of California Business and Professions Code Sections 17200 et seq. and 17500 et seq., breach of common law fiduciary duty, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and violation of California Welfare and Institutions Code Section 15600 on behalf of the proposed national class and seek injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages and attorney fees.  The plaintiff alleges that the defendants used an improper and misleading sales and marketing approach to seniors that fails to disclose all facts, misuses consumers' confidential financial information, uses misleading sales and marketing materials, promotes deferred annuities that are fundamentally inferior and less valuable than readily available alternative investment products and fails to adequately disclose other principal risks including maturity dates, surrender penalties and other restrictions which limit access to annuity proceeds to a date beyond the applicants actuarial life expectancy. Plaintiffs have amended their complaint attempting to convert this from a California only class action to a national class action. In addition, the amended complaint adds causes of action under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (“RICO”); aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty and for unjust enrichment.  On September 13, 2010, the court dismissed the plaintiff's RICO claims.  On October 25, 2010, the plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint re-alleging their RICO claims.  A hearing date on the motion for class certification has not been set.  We believe the action is without merit, and intend to defend it vigorously.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Regulatory Examinations and Fines</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Insurance companies face significant risks related to regulatory investigations and actions.  Regulatory investigations generally result from matters related to sales or underwriting practices, payment of contingent or other sales commissions, claim payments and procedures, product design, product disclosure, additional premium charges for premiums paid on a periodic basis, denial or delay of benefits, charging excessive or impermissible fees on products, changing the way cost of insurance charges are calculated for certain life insurance products or recommending unsuitable products to customers.  We are, in the ordinary course of our business, subject to various examinations, inquiries and information requests from state, federal and other authorities.  The ultimate outcome of these regulatory actions cannot be predicted with certainty.  In the event of an unfavorable outcome in one or more of these matters, the ultimate liability may be in excess of liabilities we have established and we could suffer significant reputational harm as a result of these matters, which could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The states of Pennsylvania, Illinois, Texas, Florida and Indiana led a multistate examination of the long-term care claims administration and complaint handling practices of Senior Health and Bankers Life, as well as the sales and marketing practices of Bankers Life.  On May 7, 2008, we announced a settlement among the state insurance regulators and Senior Health and Bankers Life.  This examination covered the years 2005, 2006 and 2007.  More than </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">40</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> states are parties to the settlement, which included a Senior Health fine of up to </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">$2.3 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, with up to an additional </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">$10 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> payable, on the part of either Senior Health and/or Bankers Life, in the event the process improvements and benchmarks are not met.  The process improvement plan is being monitored by the lead states and pursuant to the settlement agreement, the lead states are conducting a re-examination of Bankers Life to confirm compliance with the process improvements and benchmarks.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In October 2008, Conseco Life mailed notice to approximately </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">12,000</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> holders of its “Lifetrend” life insurance products to inform them of:  (i) changes to certain NGEs of their policies;

Prior to June 30, 2011, we maintained a specific block of investments in our trading securities account (which we carried at estimated fair value with changes in such value recognized as investment income from policyholder and reinsurer accounts and other special-purpose portfolios) to offset the income statement volatility caused by the effect of interest rate fluctuations on the value of embedded derivatives related to our fixed index annuity products.  During the second quarter of 2011, we sold this trading portfolio, which resulted in </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">$20.4 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> of decreased earnings since the volatility caused by the accounting requirements to record embedded options at fair value were no longer being offset.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">If the counterparties for the call options we hold fail to meet their obligations, we may have to recognize a loss.  We limit our exposure to such a loss by diversifying among several counterparties believed to be strong and creditworthy.  At </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">December 31, 2011</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, substantially all of our counterparties were rated “BBB+” or higher by Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”).</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Certain of our reinsurance payable balances contain embedded derivatives.  Such derivatives had an estimated fair value of </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">$3.5 million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">$(.4) million</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> at </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">December 31, 2011</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;">2010</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">, respectively.  We record the change in the fair value of these derivatives as a component of investment income (classified as investment income from policyholder and reinsurer accounts and other special-purpose portfolios).  We maintain the investments related to these agreements in our trading securities account, which we carry at estimated fair value with changes in such value recognized as investment income (also classified as investment income from policyholder and reinsurer accounts and other special-purpose portfolios).  The change in value of these trading securities offsets the change in value of the embedded derivatives.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-indent:36px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br clear="none"/></font></div></div>
