These measures are not a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Therefore, we provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures asfollows:

-
Net income return on average equity including accumulated other comprehensive income of 9.0% adjusted for net unrealized capital (gains) losses of 2.5%, net unrecognized post-retirement benefit obligation of (0.4)%, and net realized capital (gains) losses of (0.2)% equals non-GAAP operating ROE of 10.9%.
3 Non-GAAP operating earnings return on equity (ROE) equals trailing twelve months non-GAAP operating earnings divided by average stockholders’ equity available to common stockholders excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) other than foreign currency translation adjustment.
