Classen Boulevard, Suite 10E Oklahoma City, OK 73106 Web: www.afadvantage.com Tel.: 405-523-2000 Fax: 405-523-5847 AMB#: 006054 NAIC#: 60410 Ultimate Parent#: 052054 FEIN#: 73-0714500 BEST S FINANCIAL STRENGTH RATING Based on our opinion of the company s Financial Strength, it is assigned a Best s Financial Strength Rating of A+ (Superior). The company s Financial Size Category is Class IX. RATING RATIONALE Rating Rationale: The rating assignment of American Fidelity Assurance Company (American Fidelity) reflects the company s long-standing and established position in the voluntary worksite market, favorable operating results, and improved expense ratio. Offsetting factors include the challenges the company faces growing its premium revenue in the continued weak U.S. economic environment, weakness in its life insurance division, and the asset concentration risk in its investment portfolio. American Fidelity remains a leading niche player in the education sector providing voluntary worksite marketing products for accident and health, as well as life and annuity lines of business. The company has served the education market for over 50 years. American Fidelity maintains its competitive advantage through a captive agency that provides continuity and expertise geared towards the unique requirements of the education market. The company has maintained profitable operations as a result of a disciplined pricing policy, which allows the company to quickly react to pricing issues and minimize potential losses. American Fidelity remains focused on attracting and retaining customers on a profitable basis through targeted niche markets. Historically, the company s administrative expense ratio has been at levels higher than industry norms. In recent years, the company has reported measured improvements in its expense structure. The ongoing multi-year program was designed to reduce expenses and maximize operational efficiencies through a focus on common platforms, automation, and Web-based self-service. The company plans to continue its expense reduction programs and has built further reductions in future plans. American Fidelity generates approximately nine-tenths of combined earned premium from voluntary worksite markets and has reported favorable financial operating results. A.M. Best believes the company will continue to be challenged with employee s reluctance or ability to acquire coverage due to the recessionary economy. During 2009, American Fidelity exited the non-worksite life market as a result of continued weak life product sales in the United States. American Fidelity s international focus is on the Latin American life insurance market, where American Fidelity International (Bermuda) Ltd., the life insurance affiliate selling to the Latin American market, has reported losses in the past two years. As a result, American Fidelity has taken steps to improve this segment s operating results going forward through rate increases and product development. The current weakened investment and real estate markets have put some pressure on the organization s investment portfolio. The company maintains holdings in Trust Preferred CDOs, mortgage-backed securities, and corporate bonds invested in the financial sector. While American Fidelity has a relatively large exposure to commercial mortgage loans, A.M. Best notes there are no residential mortgages, no subprime exposure, all are fixed rate, geographically diverse, and relatively low loan-to-value. Additionally, there are no loans in foreclosure or past due activity during a challenging economic and real estate environment.

The company is licensed in 49 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico and American Samoa. However, there is geographic concentration, with nearly one-half of its premium volume generated from the states of California, Texas, Oklahoma, Mississippi, and Kentucky. A.M. Best acknowledges the geographic distribution of premiums is improving, as the company continues its expansion into other states. Product lines offered include long-term and short-term disability insurance, hospital indemnity, limited benefit medical, medical stop-loss, group and individual long-term care, individual and group life and health and annuities in the association and group markets. In late 2009, long-term care insurance was reinsured on a 100% coinsurance basis on all risk. The product will continue to be sold, but the company will not retain any risk going forward. American Fidelity s ordinary life plans include whole life, term and specialty life products. As a result of continued weak life product sales in the United States, the company exited the non-worksite life insurance market during 2009. However, American Fidelity will remain active in the U.S. worksite and Latin American life insurance market. The majority of American Fidelity s business is worksite marketing of voluntary products through the use of payroll deduction. The company sells these products primarily through a salaried sales force and brokerage operations which are broken into two divisions: American Fidelity Educational Services (AFES) and Association Worksite Division (AWD). In 2007, the company created the Voluntary Worksite Group (VWG) to enhance operation and product synergies of the worksite business units (AFES and AWD) as well as collaborating with an affiliate, American Public Life. The companies will seek to develop new systems and products for the voluntary worksite marketplace based on a common computer system platform. AFES focuses on marketing ancillary insurance products to public school employees. Products include disability income, tax-sheltered annuities, life insurance, cancer expense insurance, long-term care, supplemental medical insurance, accident only and section 125 administrative services. AFES introduced a hospital indemnity product that is qualified for use with a Health Savings Account (HSA). AWD specializes in voluntary payroll deduction programs targeted at selected groups and associations. The division has established the auto dealer, municipalities, and health industries as primary niche markets. Available products include short-term and long-term disability income, life insurance, cancer expense insurance, accident only, supplemental medical expense coverage and Section 125 administrative services, which assist employers and employees in building better benefit packages. Both AFES and AWD have been operating in these markets for many years and have developed expertise, long-term relationships, and brand name recognition. The expertise gained by the company in worksite marketing of voluntary products is complemented by the Strategic Alliances Division in developing products to meet special situations. Products sold by this division include stop-loss coverage available to employer groups of more than 100 employees, disability income, and a limited benefit medical product available to employers with 51 or more eligible employees. The limited benefit medical product can be offered as voluntary or employer paid. In addition, the Life Division also offers worksite life insurance in the United States and individual life insurance in Latin America. The company continues its expansion efforts into Latin America as a source for individual life insurance customers. The use of a salaried sales force to market the majority of its business has enabled American Fidelity to provide a higher level of customer support to its employer group customers. The ability to service the customer was demonstrated in recent years through the cancer product education program, which has enabled the company to maintain good persistency of this product line. This focus on customer service has also been demonstrated through the use of technology in improved group billings and to speed the processing of applications, claims, and coverage inquiries or changes. The company has implemented a website which allows customer access at any time to verify coverage information, modify coverage, and report claims. Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system is also available to customers at any time. American Fidelity Corporation s growth has been supplemented by acquisitions. In 2000, the company acquired American Public Life s parent company, American Public Holdings. American Public Life is licensed in 49 states, the District of Columbia and Guam with over 450 independent agencies and over 1,500 producers. The company s marketing efforts focus on supplemental health insurance products, such as individual limited benefit cancer insurance, disability, accident only, dental and supplemental medical plans sold on a payroll deduction basis. Individual life insurance is also offered at the worksite. Effective December 31, 2000, American Fidelity assumed the assets and in-force insurance business from Mid-Continent Life Insurance Company (MCL). The block of business currently has approximately 82,000 policyholders. Hannover Re reinsures 100% of the business on a 50/50 experience refund with no downside risk to American Fidelity. As part of the transaction, the premiums were frozen for seventeen years and dividend rates for five years. Subsequently, premiums could only be raised if after-tax profits drop below a specified level. This block of business is managed by the Life Division of AFA.

EARNINGS American Fidelity reported premium growth in 2010 with solid production from the company s core product lines. Expense initiatives and automation continued to improve during the year and resulted in a new historical level for net income. During 2009, American Fidelity reported a decline in premium volume as a result of an anticipated decrease in its limited benefit medical sales. In addition, the company exited the non-worksite U.S. life insurance market due to weak sales growth and has exited the long-term care business through reinsurance on a 100% coinsurance basis risk during the year. The company reported a historical high in net income as a result of a solid, stable base of earnings from the education market and a lower expense ratio. American Fidelity had continued premium growth in its life and A&H product lines, slightly improved its expense ratio, and sustained long-term profitable operations in 2008. During the year, American Fidelity entered into a settlement agreement regarding certain supplemental cancer insurance policies. Several years ago, the company instituted an ongoing multi-year program designed to reduce expenses and maximize operational efficiencies. While the expense ratio has declined noticeably from prior years, it continues to remain above its biggest competitors. During 2006, the company reported earned premium growth, an improved expense ratio, and a more normalized tax rate after a timing difference in 2005. The result was an improved net income versus prior years. investment income from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) program has continued to enhance American Fidelity s operating results in recent years. American Fidelity increased its FHLB borrowings and also invested in some structured notes during 2010.

The company s continued profitable operating results have been the primary contributor to surplus growth. However, its surplus growth has been limited by dividend payments to the parent organization. Over the past several years, these dividend payments were equivalent to a sizeable portion of the company s total year-end net income. In recent years, dividend amounts have steadily increased. American Fidelity Corporation (AFC), the parent of American Fidelity, is well capitalized. AFC s debt consists of IPRET trust preferreds, bank borrowings, and debt guaranteed by AFC on behalf of its subsidiaries.

Fixed-income holdings are mainly distributed among the U.S. government, government agency, investment grade public utility, and corporate sectors. American Fidelity maintains a high quality investment portfolio, with nominal exposure to below investment grade securities. More than one-third of its bond obligations are in mortgage-backed securities, with the majority of these in agency-backed pass-thrus, sequentials, or the planned amortization class of 2011 A.M.

collateralized mortgage obligations. American Fidelity also leverages borrowings from the FHLB at preferred low rates offset with marketable securities of similar duration at higher interest rates to produce an adequate spread. In addition, the company invested in structured notes, which are very similar to the FHLB notes. American Fidelity has sizeable exposure to real estate-related investments. These assets, including mortgage loans, represent nearly one and one-fifth of the company s total capital and surplus position. The mortgage loan portfolio is composed primarily of commercial mortgages secured by medical offices, industrial, office, and retail facilities. The loans are geographically diversified with no problem mortgage loans. The company holds a nominal amount of seasoned, investment quality Alt-A investments, and trust preferred CDOs.

A Rating Report from the A.M. Best Company represents an independent opinion from the leading provider of insurer ratings of a company's financial strength and ability to meet its obligations to policyholders. The A.M. Best Company is the oldest, most experienced rating agency in the world and has been reporting on the financial condition of insurance companies since 1899. The Best's Financial Strength Rating opinion addresses the relative ability of an insurer to meet its ongoing insurance obligations. The rating is not assigned to specific insurance policies or contracts and does not address any other risk, including, but not limited to, an insurer's claims-payment policies or procedures; the ability of an insurer to dispute or deny claims payment on grounds of misrepresentation or fraud; or any specific liability contractually borne by the policy or contract holder. A Best's Financial Strength Rating is not a recommendation to purchase, hold or terminate any insurance policy, contract or any other financial obligation issued by an insurer, nor does it address the suitability of any particular policy or contract for a specific purpose or purchaser. The company information appearing in this pamphlet is an extract from the complete company report prepared by the A.M. Best Company. A Best's Financial Strength Rating is assigned after a comprehensive quantitative and qualitative evaluation of a company's balance sheet strength, operating performance and business profile. Best's Financial Strength Ratings are assigned according to the following scale: Secure Best's Financial Strength Ratings A++ and A+.......................... Superior A and A-............................ Excellent B++ and B+............................. Good Vulnerable Best's Financial Strength Ratings B and B-................................. Fair C++ and C+.......................... Marginal C and C-............................... Weak D......................................Poor E..................Under Regulatory Supervision F...............................In Liquidation S............................Rating Suspended For the latest Best's Financial Strength Ratings and AMB Credit Reports visit the A.M.
