Life ($ in thousands) Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term securities 40,195 Fixed-income securities 224,820 U.S. Treasures 37,264 Corporate bonds 160,978 RMBS 27,362 CMBS 17,216 Equity securities

451,811 Total liabilities and equity Note: As of December 31, 2009, Exhibit 2: Investment Policy Statement of United Principal Life (abridged) SECTION III: BOND INVESTING Our strategy is to create a Fixed Income Investment Program to achieve the following three objectives: (a) To reduce the risk of the overall investment portfolio because bonds have lower risk than other major asset classes, (b) to eam an annualized net (after fees and expenses) rate of return that exceeds the Barclays Capital U.S. Universal Bond Index over rolling five- to seven-year periods by 10-20 basis points, with expected tracking error of 0.5 percent to 1 percent, (c) to serve as a source of liquidity for making claims payments and for rebalancing purposes. Investments in the FIIP may include all sectors of the fixed-income market included in the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index-a broad measure of the U.S. dollar-denominated, investment-grade, taxable bond market. Also permitted are other investment-grade sectors such as municipal bonds, collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) such as RMBS and CMBS, and Rule 144A securities. FIIP investments are to be diversified so that no more than 15 percent is invested in one industry (does not apply to U.S. government securities). No more than a maximum of 5 percent of the FIIP may be invested in securities of any one corporation Securities issued under Rule 144A (nonregistered debt) are limited to 20 percent of the market value of the FIIP portfolio. Private placement securities are limited to 5 percent of the market value of the portfolio. SECTION VI: DIRECT MORTGAGE INVESTING Our strategy is to create a Mortgage Investment Program to generate a diversified portfolio of high-quality mortgage investments secured by income-producing property. The returns on these investments are expected to compare favorably to those of alternative fixed-income investments. The MIP shall have a "core" risk/retum orientation and, therefore, the program will target loan investments that (1) have creditworthy borrowers and (2) mortgages secured by real property. The primary strategy of the MIP is to make loan originations that are underwritten using the standard loan due diligence process so risks are identified, evaluated, and priced accordingly. Risks may include borrower credit, tenancy, lease-up, rollover, location, property type, market, submarket, and transaction structure. Term, amortization, and rollover risk will be structured to maximize the probability of exit at loan maturity. Additionally, mortgage loans should be structured in an effort to provide limited principal risk and significant call protection. In particular, mortgage loans will be locked to prepayment for a portion of the term then open to prepayment with the payment of a fee, the greater of 1 percent of the loan balance or UST based yield maintenance at like-term UST rates plus 50 basis points. Preservation of capital is an important objective of the Funds' Mortgage Participation Program. As such, high-quality, fixed-rate loans generally are preferred. No participating loans, mezzanine debt, or second mortgage loans are permitted under this policy. Moderate leasing risk is acceptable. Substantial preleasing will be required on forward commitment loans. Loans on operating properties generally require higher, stabilized levels of occupancy of at least 85 percent. Exhibit 2 (continued) MIP investments should provide reasonable diversification by geographic location. MIP investments are subject to a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.25:1.0, a maximum LTV of 70 percent based on the underwritten valuation, and supported by a satisfactory appraisal prepared by an approved MAI Loan coupon rates, generally speaking, should generate spreads of 200-400 basis points over common-maturity UST. Given current conditions, spreads are expected to approach the upper boundary of the range. Mortgage loans will be nonrecourse, except for standard carve-out provisions, such as fraud, misrepresentation, misapplication of funds, and environmental issues, guaranteed by acceptable credits. All lending will be subject to an independent appraisal as well as engineering and environmental reviews 2. By reference to UPL's Balance Sheet (exhibit 1), Investment Policy Statement (exhibit 2) and other references in the body of the case, undertake the following analyses: 1. Discuss the firm's investment profile (relative risk aversion) 2. Evaluate UPL's experience with mortgage-related investment products. You may employ exhibit 3 to throw some light on your evaluation.
