This excerpt taken from the LNC 10-K filed Mar 1, 2007. Overview The Group Protection segment offers group non-medical insurance products, principally term life, disability and dental, to the employer marketplace through various forms of contributory and noncontributory plans. This segment also offers a specialty, non-core product called Exec-U-Care®, which is an insured medical expense reimbursement vehicle for executives that covers eligible health plan costs not covered by their base health plans. A discontinuation of Exec-U-Care® would have a significant impact on segment revenues, but only a limited effect on reportable segment income from operations. Most of the segments group contracts are sold to employers with fewer than 500 employees.

Table of ContentsThe Group Protection segment was added as a result of the merger with Jefferson-Pilot and was previously known as Benefit Partners. Accordingly, the product line data for this segment provided in the following table are given for the nine months ended December 31, 2006.
Products Group Life Insurance We offer employer-sponsored group term life insurance products including basic, optional and voluntary term life insurance to employees and their dependents. Additional benefits may be provided in the event of a covered individuals accidental death or dismemberment (AD&D coverage). Group Disability Insurance We offer short- and long-term employer-sponsored group disability insurance, which protects an employee against loss of wages due to illness or injury. Short-term disability generally provides benefits for up to 26 weeks following a short waiting period, ranging from one to 30 days. Long-term disability provides benefits following a longer waiting period, usually between 30 and 180 days and provides benefits for a longer period, at least two years and typically extending to normal (Social Security) retirement age. Group Dental We offer employer-sponsored group dental insurance, which covers a portion of the cost of eligible dental procedures for employees and their dependents. Products offered include indemnity coverage, which does not distinguish benefits based on a dental providers participation in a network arrangement, and a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) product that does reflect the dental providers participation in the PPO network arrangement, including agreement with network fee schedules.
