RETURNS UNDER THE ACCOUNTS AND STATEMENTS RULES FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REQUIRED BY RULE 9.29 OF THE ACCOUNTS AND STATEMENTS RULES (a) The use of derivatives within each fund is set out in fund management mandates which are in line with company policy as set out by the Board. A summary of the uses to which they are put is as follows: All derivatives that are held should satisfy the principles of efficient portfolio management (EPM): The transactions must be economically appropriate; The exposure must be fully covered; and The transactions must be entered into for one or of i. the reduction of risk; ii. the reduction of cost; iii. the generation of additional capital or income for the fund with an acceptably low level of risk; and iv. obtaining exposure to the performance of Lloyds Banking Group plc shares through Contracts for Differences where a direct holding of the shares is not permitted Unless they are exchange traded, derivatives may only be executed within the limits of credit exposure with counterparties as approved by the Board from time to time. Where appropriate a change of control clause should be included in the agreement. Over the counter (OTC) contracts should meet the requirements of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA). All derivative positions comply with the requirements of INSPRU 3.2.5, which includes the requirement for the positions to be covered with appropriate margining and collateralisation arrangements being applied. They should not create, or potentially create, an open ended liability (net of coverage from the underlying asset). From time to time bespoke derivative arrangements are put in place to mitigate against specific risks in these cases the terms of instruction will specify limitations consistent with the fund mandates. The primary objectives of these policies are to minimise any unintended risks. Any proposed use of derivatives which falls outwith the limits of the relevant fund management mandate must be authorised by either the relevant committee or the Board. Compliance with fund managements is reviewed regularly with breaches reported on a monthly basis. Data relating to derivative positions is also provided on a regular basis to enable Life Company oversight of the actions of the fund manager. (b) The use of contracts which, at the time the contract is entered into, are not reasonably likely to be exercised is restricted to those instruments used for the protection of free assets. (c) During the financial year, the Company did not enter into any contracts described in (b) above. (d) At no time during the year did the Company enter into a derivative or quasi-derivative contract which required a significant provision to be made for it under INSPRU 3.2.17R or did not fall within the definition of a permitted derivative contract (e) No consideration was received by the insurer during the financial year in return for granting rights under derivative or quasi-derivative contracts. 45

RETURNS UNDER THE ACCOUNTS AND STATEMENTS RULES FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 st DECEMBER 2013 ABSTRACT OF VALUATION REPORT (continued) (5) There were no changes to benefit charges on linked contracts. (6) Not applicable. (7) Unit Pricing for Internal Linked Funds (a) (i) Creation and cancellation of units of internal linked funds: The Company s policy is to match the units allocated for policies (the liability units ) closely to the units available within each corresponding unit fund (the asset units ). The excess of asset units over the liability units is called the box of units. The Company s policy is to avoid negative unit boxes, however, for practical reasons these can arise from time to time. The Company's policy also places a limit on the maximum size of the box of units for each fund, after allowing for any units reserved for new policies which have already been accepted but have yet to be issued. Whenever units in a fund are created or cancelled, cash or assets of equivalent value at the bare price are added or deducted respectively. Within the above policy, the Company s practice is to create or cancel units such that each fund s box size is the smallest practical commensurate with efficient dealing in the investments permitted under the guidelines for the fund. (a) (ii) Unit Prices: The unit prices make allowance for the actual or expected outgoings from the fund, actual tax charges and prospective tax liabilities attributable to the fund and are computed for each fund normally each working day as follows:- i) The assets of the fund are valued, together with any accrued income and uninvested cash as follows:- a) The maximum value of any asset may not exceed the market value at which it may be purchased, increased by any charges which may be expected; and b) The minimum value of any asset may not be less than the market value at which it may be sold, reduced by any charges which may be expected. c) The mid-market value of any asset is the average of the maximum and minimum values. ii) iii) iv) (v) For listed securities, prices quoted on a recognised Stock Exchange are used. Otherwise, the value of assets is determined by the Company in conjunction with its investment managers. Any other charges incurred or expected are deducted or added. For single priced funds, the price of the units is the sum of the mid-market values of the assets divided by the number of units in issue. For dual priced funds, the price will be on a bid or offer basis as appropriate. a) The bid price of the units is the sum of the bid-market values divided by the number of units in issue. b) The offer price of the units is the bid price increased for a bid/offer spread. (a) (iii) Valuation of Assets: For all funds the assets are valued on a mid-market basis, where the mid-market value of the assets is the average of the valuations on an offer and a bid basis as 48
RETURNS UNDER THE ACCOUNTS AND STATEMENTS RULES FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 st DECEMBER 2013 ABSTRACT OF VALUATION REPORT (continued) described above. A dilution levy may be applied to large transactions, at the discretion of the company, to avoid dilution of existing investments. (a) (iv) For the purpose of calculating the unit price of each fund the assets are valued at 12pm. Allocations and deallocations of units from policies use the price at the next valuation following receipt of instructions, except for switch transactions where a cut-off point of 5pm applies, with instructions received after this time receiving the price at the next but one valuation point. (b) (c) There is no change in the pricing basis for any funds. Unit-linked contracts can be invested in any of the unit-linked funds within the range of funds available to them. The total value of units held within the contract is determined based on the prices of the units in each of the fund in which the contract is invested. Units held in collective investment schemes have been valued consistently with the underlying investments, using the price applicable at the 12pm valuation point. (8) Taxation deductions for internal linked funds Tax at 20% of realised chargeable gains and taxable income is settled quarterly in arrears. There is no settlement of tax on unrealised gains and losses which remain as a provision within the funds. (9) Taxation provisions for internal linked funds For all unit-linked funds, provision held in the internal linked fund is made on a daily basis for tax on both realised and unrealised chargeable gains. A provision is then made on the basis that there is adequate provision to meet the future incidence of tax payments as they fall due. Realised and unrealised chargeable gains include the respective element of deemed disposals of OEICs. Provision was made during 2013 on the internal linked funds for realised chargeable gains at a rate of 20% and unrealised chargeable gains where the rate of 20% is discounted using a discount rate which is reviewed at regular intervals. During 2013 this rate ranged between 0.6% to 0.9%. Until July 2013, credit for unrelieved capital losses was given at a rate ranging between 0% and 17% depending on the expectation that gains will arise in the future to offset these losses. This was changed in July when cash equivalent to the then credit provision was paid into the funds and losses equivalent to the value at the policyholder rate were removed so there was no impact on price. After July, no credit is normally given for unrelieved capital losses (and losses will be carried forward). (10) When a unit-linked fund invests through an external fund link and the external fund provider charges the Company, then these charges are passed on to investors in the fund as an addition to the existing charges. The end result is therefore profit neutral for the company. 4. Valuation basis (1) Valuation methods Non-linked policies 49
RETURNS UNDER THE ACCOUNTS AND STATEMENTS RULES FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 st DECEMBER 2013 ABSTRACT OF VALUATION REPORT (continued) Term Assurances Creditor business In the case of single premium creditor term assurances and disability cover a reserve equivalent to the greater of the (net of agent s commission) unearned premium (without any cancellation charge), and the discounted value of the future benefits increased by 10% to provide for expenses, is held. This reserve covers any return of premium that is due upon the early repayment of the loan and consequent cancellation of the insurance contract including outstanding instalments (where applicable) for which the company takes credit. For revolving credit term assurances a reserve equivalent to the monthly instalment premium (net of agent s commission) at the valuation date is held which covers the cost of outstanding risk. Additional reserves were held for creditor business to cover IBNR, pending claims, continuing claims, accrued profit commission, and for premiums receivable prior to the investigation date for which no valuation data had then been established. Term Assurances - Total Mortgage Protection Plan & PFA Products A gross premium method of valuation was adopted with explicit reserves for expenses after the valuation date. There was no minimum reserve. An additional reserve was held to cover Incurred But Not Reported (IBNR) claims. Term Assurances - Other For conventional term assurances a gross premium valuation basis was used with specific reserves for expenses after the valuation date. Linked policies For property linked business, a gross premium valuation method was used. Comments applying to products in general For business reinsured from St. Andrew's Life to Halifax Life Limited the reserve is the same as the reinsurer's valuation liability. Derivative contracts are used within the internal linked funds and the main fund for efficient portfolio management. All such contracts are fully covered. Consequently, no additional reserve has been made for derivative contracts. (2) Interest Rates Valuation interest rates used in the valuation were as follows: 31/12/2012 31/12/2013 Term Assurances 0.51% p.a. (net) 1.26% p.a. (net) Linked Products 0.51% p.a. (net) 1.26% p.a.

(3) The amount of modelled maintenance expenses is different to the maintenance expenses shown at line 14 of Form 43 because the latter includes additional expenses that are covered elsewhere in the Valuation. (4) An estimate has been made for the valuation surplus for SAL for the 12 months after the valuation date, combined with the expected new business strain based on planned new business volumes. This gives a surplus of 54.4m so no additional reserve is required. (5) Maintenance expense overrun reserve Explicit expense allowances are included in the calculation of the mathematical reserves. No maintenance expense overrun reserve is required. Explicit allowances are set in line with an analysis of actual and expected spend, with an additional prudential margin. (6) Not applicable. 7. Mismatching reserves (1) Not applicable. (2) Not applicable. (3) Currency Matching All non-unit reserves are matched by assets in the same currency. (4) Resilience Capital Requirement 54
RETURNS UNDER THE ACCOUNTS AND STATEMENTS RULES FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 st DECEMBER 2013 ABSTRACT OF VALUATION REPORT (continued) A resilience capital requirement (RCR) has been calculated in accordance with INSPRU 3.1.10. The RCR was determined by identifying assets which, after applying the scenario set out below, had a value equal to the firm's long term insurance liabilities under that scenario. The amount of the RCR was then calculated by deducting the long term insurance liabilities from the value of the assets identified above, prior to applying the scenario below. For the purposes of calculating the RCR, the most onerous scenario under INSPRU 3.1.16 was a fall in the market value of equities by 10%, a fall in real estate value of 20%, and a fall in the yields of fixed interest investments of 69 basis points. (5) There are no assets invested outside the UK and so no testing was necessary. (6) After carrying out this test, an RCR of 7.5m is required. Under the scenario described above, the aggregate amount of the liabilities increases by 7.5m. There is no change in the aggregate amount of assets allocated to match these liabilities from the amount shown in Form 13. (7) No further reserve was made in respect of the resilience capital requirement test. 8. Other special reserves No other reserves are significant enough to include. 9. Reinsurance (1) The company did not cede any reinsurance on a facultative basis to a reinsurer who is not authorised to carry on insurance business in the UK. 55

(a) that in our opinion, premiums for contracts entered into during the financial year and the resulting income earned are sufficient, under reasonable actuarial methods and assumptions, and taking into account the other financial resources of the insurer that are available for the purpose, to enable the insurer to meet its obligations in respect of those contracts and, in particular, to establish adequate mathematical reserves; (b) (c) that the sum of the mathematical reserves and the deposits received from reinsurers as shown in Form 14, constitute proper provision at the end of the financial year in question for the longterm insurance liabilities (including all liabilities arising from deposit back arrangements, but excluding other liabilities which had fallen due before the end of the financial year) including any increase in those liabilities arising from a distribution of surplus as a result of an actuarial investigation as at that date into the financial condition of the long-term insurance business; and that we have in preparing the return, taken and paid due regard to advice from every actuary appointed by the insurer to perform the actuarial function in accordance with SUP 4.3.13R.

Under IPRU(INS) rule 9.11 the Forms, the statement and the valuation report are required to be prepared in the manner specified by the Rules and to state fairly the information provided on the basis required by the Rules. The methods and assumptions determined by the insurer and used to perform the actuarial investigation as set out in the valuation report are required to reflect appropriately the requirements of INSPRU 1.2. It is our responsibility to form an independent opinion as to whether the Forms, the statement and the valuation report meet these requirements, and to report our opinion to you. We also report to you if, in our opinion: adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or the Forms, the statement and the valuation report are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or we have not received all the information we require for our audit.

RETURNS UNDER THE ACCOUNTS AND STATEMENTS RULES FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2013 Basis of opinion We conducted our work in accordance with Practice Note 20 'The audit of insurers in the United Kingdom (Revised)' issued by the Auditing Practices Board. Our work included examination, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the Forms, the statement and the valuation report. The evidence included that previously obtained by us relating to the audit of the financial statements of the insurer for the financial year i. It also included an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by the insurer in the preparation of the Forms, the statement and the valuation report.

In accordance with IPRU(INS) rule 9.35(1A), to the extent that any document, Form, statement, analysis or report to be examined under IPRU(INS) rule 9.35(1) contains amounts or information abstracted from the actuarial investigation performed pursuant to IPRU(INS) rule 9.4, we have obtained and paid due regard to advice from a suitably qualified actuary who is independent of the insurer. Opinion In our opinion: (i) the Forms, the statement and the valuation report fairly state the information provided on the basis required by the Rules as modified and have been properly prepared in accordance with the provisions of those Rules; and (ii) the methods and assumptions determined by the insurer and used to perform the actuarial investigation as set out in the valuation report appropriately reflect the requirements of INSPRU 1.2.
