FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS





The Companys management has made in this report, and from time to time may make in its public filings and press releases as well as in oral presentations and discussions, forward-looking statements concerning
the Companys operations, economic performance, prospects and financial condition. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, discussions concerning the Companys potential exposure to market risks, as well as statements
expressing managements expectations, beliefs, estimates, forecasts, projections and assumptions, as indicated by words such as believes, estimates, intends, anticipates, expects,
projects, should, probably, risk, target, goals, objectives, or similar expressions. The Company claims the protection afforded by the safe harbor for
forward-looking statements as set forth in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are subject to many risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by forward-looking
statements due to a number of important factors including those discussed elsewhere in this report and in the Companys other public filings, press releases, oral presentations and discussions and the following: venture capital gains or losses
could differ significantly from the Companys assumptions because of further significant changes in equity values; fees from assets under management could be significantly higher or lower than the Company has assumed if there are further major
movements in the equity markets; the value of the Companys overall investment portfolio could fluctuate significantly as a result of major changes in the equity and debt markets generally; actual death claims experience could differ
significantly from the Companys mortality assumptions; the Company may not achieve anticipated levels of operational efficiency and cost-saving initiatives; the Company may have as-yet unascertained tax liabilities; sales of variable products,
mutual funds and equity securities could differ materially from assumptions because of further unexpected developments in the equity markets and changes in demand for such products; major changes in interest rates could affect the Companys
earnings; the Company could have liability from as-yet unknown or unquantified litigation and claims; pending or known litigation or claims could result in larger settlements or judgments than the Company anticipates; the Company may have higher
operating expenses than anticipated; changes in law or regulation, including tax laws, could materially affect the demand for the Companys products and the Companys net income after tax; and the Company may not achieve the assumed
economic benefits of consolidating acquired enterprises. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

THE MONY GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES





NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED


CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





1.    Organization and Description of Business:





The MONY Group Inc.
(the MONY Group), through its subsidiaries (MONY Group and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as the Company), provides life insurance, annuities, corporate-owned and bank-owned life insurance
(COLI/BOLI), mutual funds, securities brokerage, asset management, business and estate planning, trust, and investment banking products and services. The Company distributes its products and services to individuals and institutional
clients through: (i) a career agency sales force operated by its principal life insurance subsidiary and financial advisors and brokers of its securities broker-dealer and mutual fund subsidiaries (Proprietary Distribution) and (ii)
complementary distribution channels (Complementary Distribution), which principally consist of independent third-party insurance brokerage general agencies and securities broker-dealers, as well as its corporate marketing team. For the
three months ended March 31, 2002, Proprietary Distribution accounted for approximately 32.0%, and 39.2% of sales of protection and accumulation products, respectively, and 100.0% of retail brokerage and investment banking revenues. Complementary
Distribution accounted for 68.0% and 60.8% of sales of protection and accumulation products, respectively, and 0.0% of retail brokerage and investment banking revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The Company principally sells its
products in all 50 of the United States, the District of Columbia, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and currently insures or provides other financial services to more than one million people.





MONY Groups principal operating subsidiaries are MONY Life Insurance Company (MONY Life), formerly known as The Mutual Life
Insurance Company of New York, and The Advest Group Inc. (Advest).





MONY Lifes principal wholly owned direct
and indirect operating subsidiaries include: (i) MONY Life Insurance Company of America (MLOA), an Arizona domiciled life insurance company, (ii) Enterprise Capital Management (Enterprise or ECM), a distributor of
both proprietary and non-proprietary mutual funds, (iii) U.S. Financial Life Insurance Company (USFL), an Ohio domiciled insurer underwriting specialty risk life insurance business, (iv) MONY Securities Corporation (MSC), a
registered securities broker-dealer and investment advisor whose products and services are distributed through MONY Lifes career agency sales force, (v) Trusted Securities Advisors Corp. (Trusted Advisors), which distributes
investment products and services through a network of independent certified public accountants, (vi) MONY Brokerage, Inc. (MBI), a licensed insurance broker, which principally provides MONY Lifes career agency sales force with
access to life, annuity, small group health, and specialty insurance products written by other insurance companies so they can meet the insurance and investment needs of their customers, and (vii) MONY Life Insurance Company of the Americas, Ltd.
(MLICA), which provides life insurance, annuity and investment products to nationals of certain Latin American countries.





2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:





Basis of Presentation





The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The most
significant estimates made in conjunction with the preparation of the Companys financial statements include those used in determining (i) deferred policy acquisition costs, (ii) the liability for future policy benefits, (iii) valuation
allowances for mortgage loans, and impairment writedowns for other invested assets, and (iv) litigation contingencies and restructuring charges. Certain reclassifications have been made in the amounts presented for prior periods to conform those
periods to the current presentation.

THE MONY GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)







New Accounting Pronouncements





In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). SFAS 142 provides that goodwill and intangible
assets that have indefinite useful lives will not be amortized but rather will be tested at least annually for impairment. This Statement provides specific guidance for testing the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets. This statement is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. As a result of adopting this statement, the Company will no longer recognize goodwill amortization of approximately $12 million on an annualized basis. Adoption of the new requirements
did not have a material effect on the Companys earnings or financial position.





In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No.
144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). SFAS 144 establishes a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, including assets to be held and used, assets
to be disposed of by other than sale, and assets to be disposed of by sale. The provisions of SFAS 144 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and interim periods within such year, except that
assets held for sale as a result of disposal activities initiated prior to the effective date of SFAS 144 may be accounted for in accordance with prior guidance until the end of the fiscal year in which SFAS 144 is effective. SFAS 144 retains many
of the same provisions of SFAS 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of (SFAS 121). In addition to retaining the SFAS 121 requirements, SFAS 144 requires companies to
present the results of operations of components of the entity that are held for sale as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The Company has real estate held for sale, included in Other
invested assets, that meet the definition of a component of the entity. Substantially all the Companys real estate held for sale resulted from disposal activities initiated prior to the effective date of SFAS 144. The Company expects to
adopt SFAS 144 by year end. Pre-tax income from real estate held for sale recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was approximately $7.1 million.





3.    Segment Information:





For management and reporting purposes, the Companys
business is organized in three principal reportable operating segments, the Protection Products segment, the Accumulation Products segment, and the Retail Brokerage and Investment Banking segment. Substantially
all of the Companys other business activities are combined and reported in the Other Products segment.





Products comprising the Protection Products segment primarily include a wide range of insurance products, including: whole life, term life, universal life, variable universal life, corporate-owned life, last survivor whole life, last
survivor universal life, last survivor variable universal life, group universal life and special-risk products. In addition, included in the Protection Products segment are: (i) the assets and liabilities transferred pursuant to the Group Pension
Transaction, as well as the Group Pension Profits derived therefrom (see Note 4) and (ii) the Closed Block assets and liabilities, as well as all the related revenues and expenses relating thereto (see Note 6).





The Accumulation Products segment primarily includes flexible premium variable annuities, single premium deferred annuities, single premium immediate
annuities, proprietary mutual funds, investment management services, and certain other financial services products.





The Retail
Brokerage and Investment Banking segment is comprised of the operations of Advest, MSC and Matrix Capital Markets Group, Inc. and Matrix Private Equities, Inc. (collectively referred to as Matrix), wholly owned subsidiaries of the MONY
Group. Advest provides diversified financial services including securities brokerage, trading, investment banking, trust, and asset management services. Matrix is a middle market investment bank specializing in merger and acquisition services for a
middle market client base. MSC is a

securities broker dealer that transacts customer trades primarily in securities and mutual funds. In addition to selling the Companys Protection and Accumulation Products, MSC provides the
Companys career agency distribution system access to other non-proprietary investment products (including stocks, bonds, limited partnership interests, tax-exempt unit investment trusts and other investment securities).





The Companys Other Products segment primarily consists of an insurance brokerage operation and certain lines of insurance business no
longer written by the Company (the run-off businesses). The insurance brokerage operation provides the Companys career agency sales force with access to variable life, annuity, small group health and specialty insurance products
written by other carriers to meet the insurance and investment needs of its customers. The run off businesses primarily consist of group life and health business as well as group pension business that was not included in the Group Pension
Transaction (see Note 4).

5.    Commitments and Contingencies:





Since late 1995 a number of purported class actions have been commenced in various state and federal courts against MONY and MLOA alleging that it
engaged in deceptive sales practices in connection with the sale of whole and universal life insurance policies from the early 1980s through the mid 1990s. Although the claims asserted in each case are not identical, they seek substantially the same
relief under essentially the same theories of recovery (i.e., breach of contract, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, negligent supervision and training, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and violation of state insurance and/or deceptive
business practice laws). Plaintiffs in these cases seek primarily equitable relief (e.g., reformation, specific performance, mandatory injunctive relief prohibiting MONY and MLOA from canceling policies for failure to make required premium payments,
imposition of a constructive trust and creation of a claims resolution facility to adjudicate any individual issues remaining after resolution of all class-wide issues) as opposed to compensatory damages, although they also seek compensatory damages
in unspecified amounts. MONY and MLOA have answered the complaints in each action (except for one being voluntarily held in abeyance). MONY and MLOA have denied any wrongdoing and have asserted numerous affirmative defenses.





On June 7, 1996, the New York State Supreme Court certified one of those cases, Goshen v. The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York and MONY Life
Insurance Company of America (now known as DeFilippo, et al v. The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York and MONY Life Insurance Company of America), the first of the class actions filed, as a nationwide class consisting of all
persons or entities who have, or at the time of the policys termination had, an ownership interest in a whole or universal life insurance policy issued by MONY and MLOA and sold on an alleged vanishing premium basis during the
period January 1, 1982 to December 31, 1995. On March 27, 1997, MONY and MLOA filed a motion to dismiss or, alternatively, for summary judgment on all counts of the complaint. All of the other putative class actions have been consolidated and
transferred by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts and/or are being held in abeyance pending the outcome of the Goshen case.





On October 21, 1997, the New York State Supreme Court granted MONYs and MLOAs motion for summary judgment and dismissed all claims filed in
the Goshen case against MONY and MLOA. On December 20, 1999, the New York State Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of all but one of the claims in the Goshen case (a claim under New Yorks General Business Law), which has
been remanded back to the New York State Supreme Court for further proceedings consistent with the opinion. The New York State Supreme Court has subsequently reaffirmed that, for purposes of the remaining New York General Business Law claim, the
class is now limited to New York purchasers only, and has further held that the New York General Business Law claims of all class members whose claims accrued prior to November 29, 1992 are barred by the applicable statute of limitations.On
August 9, 2001, the New York State Appellate Division, First Department, affirmed the ruling




13

THE MONY GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES





NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED


CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)




limiting the class to New York purchasers. On January 15, 2002, the New York State Court of Appeals granted the plaintiffs motion for leave to appeal from that decision. MONY and MLOA
intend to defend themselves vigorously against the plaintiffs appeal and the sole remaining claim. There can be no assurance, however, that the present litigation relating to sales practices will not have a material adverse effect on them.





On November 16, 1999, the MONY Group and MONY Life were served with a complaint in an action entitled Calvin Chatlos, M.D.,
and Alvin H. Clement, On Behalf of Themselves And All Others Similarly Situated v. The MONY Life Insurance Company, The MONY Group Inc., and Neil D. Levin, Superintendent, New York Department of Insurance, filed in the United States District
Court for the Southern District of New York. The action purports to be brought as a class action on behalf of all individuals who had an ownership interest in one or more in-force life insurance policies issued by MONY Life as of November 16, 1998.
The complaint alleges that (i) the New York Superintendent of Insurance, Neil D. Levin, violated Section 7312 of the New York Insurance Law by approving the Plan of Demutualization, which plaintiffs claim was not fair and adequate, primarily because
it allegedly failed to provide for sufficient assets for the mechanism established under the plan to preserve reasonable dividend expectations of the closed block, and (ii) MONY Life violated Section 7312 by failing to develop and submit to the New
York Superintendent a plan of demutualization that was fair and adequate. The plaintiffs seek equitable relief in the form of an order vacating and/or modifying the New York Superintendents order approving the Plan of Demutualization and/or
directing the New York Superintendent to order MONY Life to increase the assets in the closed block, as well as unspecified monetary damages, attorneys fees and other relief.





In early January 2000, the MONY Group, MONY Life and the New York Superintendent wrote to the District Court seeking a pre-motion conference preliminary to the filing of a motion to
dismiss the federal complaint on jurisdictional, federal abstention and timeliness grounds and for failure to state a claim. Following receipt of those letters, plaintiffs counsel offered voluntarily to dismiss their complaint, and a
stipulation and order to that effect was thereafter filed and approved by the court.





On March 27, 2000, plaintiffs filed a new
action in New York State Supreme Court bearing the same caption and naming the same defendants as the previously filed federal action. The state court complaint differs from the complaint previously filed in federal court in two primary respects.
First, it no longer asserts a claim for damages against the New York Superintendent, nor does its prayer for relief seek entry of an order vacating or modifying the New York Superintendents decision or requiring the New York Superintendent to
direct MONY Life to place additional assets into the closed block. Rather, it seeks an accounting and an order from the Court directing MONY Life to transfer additional assets to the closed block.





Second, the new complaint contains claims for breach of contract and fiduciary duty, as well as new allegations regarding the adequacy of the
disclosures contained in the Policyholder Information Booklet distributed to policyholders soliciting their approval of the plan of demutualization (which plaintiffs claim violated both the Insurance Law and MONY Lifes fiduciary duties).





In order to challenge successfully the New York Superintendents approval of the plan, plaintiffs would have to sustain
the burden of showing that such approval was arbitrary and capricious or an abuse of discretion, made in violation of lawful procedures, affected by an error of law or not supported by substantial evidence. In addition, Section 7312 provides that
MONY Life may ask the court to require the challenging party to give security for the reasonable expenses, including attorneys fees, which may be incurred by MONY Life or the New York Superintendent or for which MONY Life may become liable, to
which security MONY Life shall have recourse in such amount as the court shall determine upon the termination of the action.





The MONY Group, MONY Life and the New York Superintendent moved to dismiss the state court complaint in its entirety on a variety of grounds. On April 20, 2001, the New York Supreme Court granted both




14

THE MONY GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES





NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED


CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)




motions and dismissed all claims against the MONY Group, MONY Life and the New York Superintendent. Plaintiffs have appealed the dismissal of the claims against the MONY Group, MONY Life and the
New York Superintendent to the New York Appellate Division, First Department. MONY Group and MONY Life intend to defend themselves vigorously against plaintiffs appeal. There can be no assurance, however, that the present litigation will not
have a material adverse effect on them.





In addition to the matters discussed above, the Company is involved in various other
legal actions and proceedings (some of which involve demands for unspecified damages) in connection with its business. In the opinion of management of the Company, resolution of contingent liabilities, income taxes and other matters will not have a
material adverse effect on the Companys statutory surplus or results of operations.





At March 31, 2002, the Company had
commitments to fund the following: $109.0 million of equity partnership investments, an $8.0 million private fixed maturity with an interest rate of 7.01%, $5.8 million of fixed rate agricultural loans with periodic interest rate reset dates with
initial rates ranging from 6.9% to 8.3%, $178.6 million fixed and floating rate commercial mortgages with interest rates ranging from 4.53% to 8.27% and $5.5 million of mezzanine financing with pay rates ranging from 9.0% to 10.0%.





In addition, the Company maintains a syndicated credit facility with domestic banks aggregating $150.0 million, with a scheduled renewal date
in June 2002. In accordance with certain covenants of the facilities, the Company is required to maintain a certain statutory tangible net worth and debt to capitalization ratio. The purpose of this facility is to provide additional liquidity for
any unanticipated short-term cash needs the Company might experience and also to serve as support for the Companys $150.0 million commercial paper program which was activated in the third quarter of 2000. The Company has complied with all
covenants of the facilities, has not borrowed against these lines of credit since their inception, and does not have any commercial paper outstanding as of March 31, 2002.

For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, there were $0.0 million
and $2.4 million in charges for other than temporary impairments on fixed maturities in the Closed Block.





7.    Reorganization
and Other Charges:





During 2001, the Company recorded Reorganization Charges aggregating approximately $56.8
million on a pre-tax basis taken in connection with the Companys previously announced reorganization of certain of its businesses. Of the reorganization charges recorded, approximately $10.3 million of severance benefits relating to headcount
reductions in the Companys home office and career agency system and $8.7 million of other reorganization charges met the definition of restructuring charges as defined by Emerging Issues Task Force Consensus 94-3, Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). The liability relating to the aforementioned restructuring charges at December 31, 2001 was $12.6
million and was reduced by actual payments and revisions to estimates made during the first quarter of 2002 as follows:

8.    Subsequent Events:





On February 27, 2002, MONY Group formed a downstream holding company, MONY Holdings LLC (MONY Holdings). On April 30, 2002, MONY Group transferred all of its ownership
interests in MONY Life to MONY Holdings, and MONY Holdings, through a structured financing tied to the performance of the Closed Block business within MONY Life, issued $300.0 million of floating rate insured debt securities in a private placement.
The Closed Block business consists of MONY Lifes regulatory Closed Block and surplus and related assets within MONY Life that support the business in the regulatory Closed Block.





Proceeds to MONY Holdings from the issuance of the aforementioned debt securities, after all offering and other related expenses, were approximately $289.9 million. Of this amount, $60.0
million was deposited in a debt service coverage account, pursuant to the terms of the note indenture, to provide liquidity and collateral for the payment of interest and principal on the notes. These funds will ultimately revert back to the
Company, provided that the cash flows from the Closed Block business are sufficient to satisfy MONY Holdings obligations under the notes.





Interest on the notes accrues at an annual rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 0.55%. Concurrent with the issuance of the notes, MONY Holdings entered into an interest rate swap contract, which locked in a fixed rate
of interest on the debt. Including all costs associated with the offering, the effective cost of the debt is 7.44%.





Pursuant to
the terms of the structured financing, MONY Holdings can issue an additional $150.0 million of this floating rate insured debt in the future. This transaction effectively securitized a portion of the future profits from MONY Lifes Closed Block
business. The source of cash flows and the collateral for the payment of




17

THE MONY GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES





NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED


CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)




principal and interest on the debt is limited to: (i) the amount of dividends that can be paid by MONY Life which are attributable to the Closed Block business, (ii) net tax payments paid to MONY
Holdings pursuant to certain tax sharing agreements, (iii) net payments made to MONY Holdings under the aforementioned interest rate swap, and (iv) amounts on deposit in the debt service coverage account (and the earnings thereon). In addition to
the aforementioned cash flows and collateral, investors in the notes have limited recourse to MONY Holdings in the event of any default under the notes. The amount of dividends attributable to the Closed Block business is determined by applying the
New York dividend regulation to the surplus and net gain from operations of MONY Life which is attributable to the Closed Block business, subject to certain adjustments described in the indenture.

Three-month Period Ended March 31, 2002 Compared to the Three-month Period
Ended March 31, 2001





Premiums  Premium revenue was $164.4 million for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2002, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 0.4% from $165.1 million reported for the comparable prior year period. The decrease was primarily a result of lower premiums in the Protection Products segment of $1.2 million, offset by higher
premiums in the Accumulation Products and Other Products segments of $0.2 million and $0.3 million respectively. The decrease of premiums in the Protection Products segment was primarily a result of lower renewal premiums on individual life of $0.9
million due to the reduction of the in-force block and lower single premiums on individual life of $2.3 million, partially offset by an increase of $2.1 million in new premiums from the sale of special risk insurance products offered by USFL. The
increase in USFLs premiums is primarily attributable to the expansion of its distribution and the improvement in its financial strength ratings since being acquired by the
Company.





Universal life and investment-type product
policy fees  Universal life and investment-type product policy fees were $49.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 1.4% from $49.7 million reported for the comparable prior year
period. The decrease was due to lower fees in the Accumulation Products segment of $3.1 million offset by higher fees in the Protection Products and Other Products segments of $1.2 million each. The decrease in the Accumulation Products segment was
primarily due to lower mortality and expense charges of $0.8 million and a $2.1 million decrease in surrender charges in the Companys FPVA product. The decline in FPVA mortality and expense charges is due to lower fund balances in the Separate
Accounts due to stock market declines. The decrease in FPVA surrender charges is due to the positive efforts of the Companys conservation program coupled with other measures designed to improve persistency. The increase in the Protection
Products segment was primarily attributable to higher fees earned on VL and VUL business of $0.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively, consistent with growth in the in force blocks of such business which was offset by lower fees on the CSVUL, and
UL business of $1.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, net of reinsurance.




20




---




Net investment income and realized gains on investments  Net investment
income was $189.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $6.0 million, or 3.3%, from $183.7 million reported for the comparable prior year period. The increase in net investment income is primarily related to $10.6
million of higher income reported by the Company from its investments in limited partnership interests. Such partnerships provide venture capital funding to companies through the purchase of, or investment in, equity securities issued by such
companies. Real estate income increased $4.6 million, which relates to the partnership interests in a specific investment property. Also contributing to the higher net investment income are lower investment expenses of $3.9 million. Partially
offsetting these increases in net investment income was a decline in interest rates. The annualized yield on the Companys invested assets, excluding limited partnership interests, before and after realized gains (losses) on investments was
6.8% and 6.7%, respectively, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, as compared to 7.0% and 7.1%, respectively, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001. See Investments  Results by Asset Category.





As of March 31, 2002, the Company had approximately $19.3 million of additional pre-tax gains related to its venture capital
limited partnership investment that may be recognized in earnings in the future subject to market fluctuation.





Net realized
capital losses were $2.4 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $4.9 million, from gains of $2.5 million for the comparable prior year period. The following table sets forth the components of net realized gains
(losses) by investment category for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2001.

Group Pension Profits  Group Pension Profits were $7.7
million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 22.2%, from $9.9 million in the comparable prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to lower operating income of $7.9 million due to the run-off of the
Group Pension business partially offset with capital losses of $0.2 million in 2002. Operating income and capital gains for the comparable prior year period were $8.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively.





Refer to Note 4 of the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein for certain summary financial information relating
to the Group Pension Transaction and the Group Pension Profits. Management expects that Group Pension Profits will decline throughout 2002 through the termination of the Group Pension Transaction on December 31, 2002 consistent with the continuing
run-off of the underlying business.





Retail Brokerage and Investment Banking revenues  Retail Brokerage
and Investment Banking revenues were $90.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $19.7 million, or 27.7%, from $71.1 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase is due to increased revenues from
Advest, partially offset by decreased revenues from MSC and Matrix. Advest had retail brokerage and investment banking revenues of $79.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $21.3 million, or 36.4%, from $58.4
million in the comparable prior year period due to the inclusion of an additional months worth of revenues in 2002, partially offset by a decrease in interest revenue due to the outsourcing of Advests clearing operations. The Company
acquired Advest on January 31, 2001. The retail brokerage and investment banking revenues from MSC and Matrix decreased due to lower




21




---

commission revenue and merger and acquisition fees, respectively. All expenses related to the operations of Advest, Matrix and MSC are recorded in Other operating costs and expenses
in the Companys unaudited interim consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.





Other
income  Other income (which consists primarily of fees earned by the Companys mutual fund management and insurance brokerage operations, as well as revenues from interest on deposits held under financial reinsurance
arrangements, certain other asset management fees, and other miscellaneous revenues) was $38.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $7.9 million, or 26.1%, from $30.3 million reported for the comparable prior year
period. The increase was primarily due to higher income of $8.0 million recorded in the Protection Products segment due to the increased cash surrender value of the Companys corporate owned life insurance (COLI) contract as a
result of favorable market conditions. The Company purchased this COLI contract to provide a funding mechanism for its non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities. This COLI contract substantially hedges the changes in the Companys
non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities. The change in such liabilities is reflected in other operating costs and expenses.





Benefits to policyholders  Benefits to policyholders were $190.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $7.0 million, or 3.5%, from $197.7 million reported for
the comparable prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower benefits in the Protection Products segment of $7.7 million offset by higher benefits of $0.4 million in the Accumulation Products segment and $0.3 million in the Other
Products segment. The decrease in the Protection Product segment was primarily due to lower benefits in the individual life, variable universal life, and universal life business of $4.0 million, $2.8 million and $0.8 million respectively. The
decrease in total benefits was primarily due to better mortality offset in part by an increase in reserves. The increase in the Accumulation Products segment is primarily due to higher supplemental contract reserves and benefits of $4.2 million, a
$0.4 million increase. The increased reserves are attributable to higher sales of accumulation products. The increase in the Other Products segment is due to higher benefits on Association business.





Interest credited to policyholders account balances  Interest credited to policyholders account balances was $27.9
million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 1.4%, from $28.3 million reported for the comparable prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to lower interest crediting on the Companys retained
portion of the group pension business.





Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs  Amortization
of deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC) was $32.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $4.4 million, or 11.8%, from $37.2 million reported in the comparable prior year period. The decrease is due to
lower amortization of $4.0 million and $0.4 million in the Protection Products and Accumulation Products segments respectively. The decrease in the Protection Products segment was as a result of lower amortization of $7.8 million for individual life
products offset by increased amortization for universal life, variable universal life, and CSVL products of $1.2 million, $2.1 million and $0.6 million respectively. The decrease in the Accumulation Products segment is due to lower amortization on
the FPVA product as a result of lower surrenders.





Dividends to policyholders  Dividends to policyholders
were $61.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $6.9 million, or 12.6%, from $54.6 million reported for the comparable prior year period. The increase is attributable to approximately $13.0 million of deferred
dividends in the Protection Products Segment due to Closed Block actual results for the period in excess of that expected based on the original funding assumptions underlying the Closed Block, offset in part by lower dividends of approximately $6.4
million due to a decrease in dividend scales.





Other operating costs and expenses  Other operating costs
and expenses were $203.4 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $29.2 million, or 16.8%, from $174.2 million reported for the comparable prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to a $7.0 million
increase in the Protection Products segment and a $20.1 million increase in the Retail Brokerage and Investment Banking segment. The increase in the Protection Products segment consist of higher costs relating to the Companys benefit plans of
$11.2 million, partially offset by lower overhead, interest and depreciation costs of




22




---

approximately $4.2 million. The increase in costs relating to the Companys benefit plans is primarily attributable to an increase in the Companys non-qualified deferred compensation
liabilities, which are substantially hedged by the change in the cash surrender value of a COLI contract owned by the Company (refer to Other Income above). The increase in the Retail Brokerage and Investment Banking segment is primarily
attributable to the inclusion of an additional months worth of Advest expenses, partially offset by lower interest and commission expenses. The remainder of the increase in other operating costs and expenses was attributable to increases of
$1.0 million and $1.6 million in the Accumulation Products and Other Products segments, respectively, partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in items reflected as Reconciling Amounts. These variances were attributable to increases in general
operating expenses.





New Business Information





The Company distributes its Protection and Accumulation products primarily through its career agency sales force and various complementary distribution channels which include: (i) sales of proprietary retail mutual
funds through third party broker-dealers, (ii) sales of Protection Products by the Companys USFL subsidiary through brokerage general agencies, (iii) sales of COLI products by the Companys corporate marketing team, and (iv) sales of a
variety of financial products and services through the Companys Trusted Advisors subsidiary. The table below and the discussion which follows present certain information with respect to the Companys sales of protection and accumulation
products during the three month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 by source of distribution. Management uses this information to measure the Companys sales production from period to period by source of distribution.





The amounts presented with respect to life insurance sales represent annualized statutory-basis premiums. Annualized premiums in the
Protection Products segment represent the total premium scheduled to be collected on a policy or contract over a twelve-month period. Pursuant to the terms of certain of the policies and contracts issued by the Company, premiums and deposits may be
paid or deposited on a monthly, quarterly, or semi-annual basis. Annualized premium does not apply to single premium paying business. All premiums received on COLI business and single premium paying policies during the periods presented are
included. Statutory basis premiums are used in lieu of GAAP basis premiums because, in accordance with statutory accounting practices, revenues from all classes of long-duration contracts are measured on the same basis, whereas GAAP provides
different revenue recognition rules for different classes of long-duration contracts as defined by the requirements of SFAS No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises, SFAS No. 97, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance
Enterprises for Certain Long Duration Contracts and for Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments, and SOP 95-1, Accounting for Certain Insurance Activities of Mutual Life Insurance Enterprises. The amounts presented with
respect to annuity and mutual fund sales represent deposits made by customers during the periods presented. The amounts presented with respect to the Retail Brokerage and Investment Banking segment represent fees earned by Advest, Matrix and MSC
primarily from securities brokerage, investment banking and asset management services.

Protection Products Segment  New Business Information for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2001





Total new annualized and single life insurance premiums for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 were $48.7 million, compared with $49.3 million during the comparable prior year
period.





The decrease was primarily due to decreased sales of COLI and BOLI which were $18.2 million for the three-month period
ended March 31, 2002, compared to $22.1 million for the comparable prior year period. The decrease in sales reflects increased competition in the marketplace. Corporate sales are large-premium cases, which typically generate revenues that can
fluctuate considerably from quarter-to-quarter.





New life insurance premiums (first-year and single premiums) through the career
network decreased for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 to $15.6 million compared to $17.1 million for the comparable prior year period.





USFL sales were $12.1 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, compared to $9.8 million during the comparable 2001 period due to an increase in universal life sales.

Accumulation sales were $444.0 million for
the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 compared to $437.0 million in the comparable prior year period. The Enterprise Group of Funds had sales of $344.0 million, $270.0 million of which were sold through third-party broker-dealers and $74.0
million of which were sold through the Companys career network. Comparably, first quarter 2001 sales for Enterprise were $365.0 million, $249.0 million of which were from third-party broker dealers and $116.0 million of which were from the
career network. The Companys mutual fund business experienced net inflows of $76.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. Annuity sales, net of exchanges, were $100.0 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 compared
to $72.0 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2001. Due to an improvement in the equity markets, accumulation assets under management increased 1.1% to $9.1 billion as of March 31, 2002 from $9.0 billion as of December 31, 2001.

Retail Brokerage and Investment Banking Segment  Revenue Information for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2002 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2001





The Retail Brokerage and
Investment Banking segment offers securities brokerage, trading, investment banking, trust, and asset management services to high-net worth individuals and small to mid-size business owners through Advest, Matrix and MSC. The Retail Brokerage and
Investment Banking segment revenues were $90.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002. Advests trading revenues improved over the prior year, however these improvements were offset by a decrease of interest income on margin
accounts as a result of the outsourcing of Advests clearing operation which was completed in early 2002. In connection with the outsourcing, Advest entered into an interest-sharing agreement, which has resulted in lower net interest profits in
the current year. There was also a corresponding decrease in interest expense in connection with the outsourcing. Advest revenues were $79.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, compared to $93.5 million for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2001 on a proforma basis. Advest was acquired by the Company on January 31, 2001. Revenues from Advests private client group were $44.1 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 compared to $30.1 million
for February and March 2001. Advests private client group includes the retail sale of equities, asset management products, fixed income products and annuities to individual investors through Advest financial advisors.





For the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, MSC, a registered securities broker-dealer for MONYs career network, posted revenues of $10.8
million, compared with $11.0 million during the comparable prior year period.





Liquidity and Capital Resources





MONY Group and MONY Holdings





On February 27, 2002, The MONY Group Inc. (MONY Group) formed a downstream holding company, MONY Holding LLC (MONY Holdings). On April 30, 2002, MONY Group transferred all of its ownership interests in MONY Life
Insurance Company (MONY Life) to MONY Holdings, and MONY Holdings, through a structured financing tied to the performance of the Closed Block business within MONY Life, issued $300 million of floating rate insured debt securities in a
private placement. The Closed Block business consists of MONY Lifes regulatory Closed Block and surplus and related assets within MONY Life that support the business in the regulatory Closed Block.





Proceeds to MONY Holdings from the issuance of the aforementioned debt securities, after all offering and other related expenses, were approximately
$289.9 million. Of this amount, $60 million was deposited in a debt service coverage account, pursuant to the terms of the note indenture, to provide liquidity and collateral for the payment of interest and principal on the notes. These funds will
ultimately revert back to the Company, provided that the cash flows from the Closed Block business are sufficient to satisfy the MONY Holdings obligations under the notes. The balance of the proceeds aggregating $227.7 million was paid in
dividends by MONY Holdings to MONY Group.





Interest on the notes accrues at an annual rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus
0.55%. Concurrent with the issuance of the notes, MONY Holdings entered into an interest rate swap contract, which locked in a fixed rate of interest on the debt of 7.19%. Including all costs associated with the offering, the effective cost of the
debt is 7.44%.





Pursuant to the terms of the structured financing, MONY Holdings can issue an additional $150.0 million of this
floating rate insured debt in the future. This transaction effectively securitized a portion of the future profits from MONY Lifes Closed Block business. The source of cash flows and the collateral for the payment of principal and interest on
the debt is limited to: (i) the amount of dividends that can be paid by MONY Life which are attributable to the Closed Block business, (ii) net tax payments paid to MONY Holdings pursuant to certain tax sharing agreements, (iii) net payments made to
MONY Holdings under the aforementioned interest rate swap, and (iv) amounts on deposit in the debt service coverage account (and the earnings thereon). In addition to the aforementioned cash flows and collateral, investors in the notes have limited
recourse to MONY Holdings in the




26




---

event of any default under the notes. The amount of dividends attributable to the Closed Block business is determined by applying the New York dividend regulation to the surplus and net gain from
operations of MONY Life which is attributable to the Closed Block business, subject to certain adjustments described in the indenture.





MONY Groups cash flow principally consists of investment income from its invested assets (including interest from the inter-company surplus notes, as hereafter defined) and dividends from MONY Holdings and MONY Groups other
principal subsidiary, Advest, if declared and paid, offset by expenses incurred in connection with the administration of the MONY Groups affairs and interest expense on its outstanding indebtedness. The amount of dividends from MONY Holdings
available to MONY Group is largely dependent upon the amount of dividends available to MONY Holdings from MONY Life in excess of that attributable to the Closed Block business, as discussed above. As a holding company, MONY Groups ability to
meet its cash requirements, pay interest expense on its outstanding indebtedness, and pay dividends on its Common Stock substantially depend upon payments from its subsidiaries, including the receipt of: (i) dividends, (ii) interest income on the
inter-company surplus notes, and (iii) other payments. The payment of dividends by MONY Life to MONY Group is regulated under state insurance law. In addition, payments of principal and interest on the inter-company surplus notes can only be made
with the prior approval of the New York Superintendent whenever, in his judgment, the financial condition of such insurer warrants. Such payments may be made only out of surplus funds which are available for such payments under the New York
Insurance Law.





Issuance of Senior Notes and Repurchase of Senior Notes





On January 12, 2000, the MONY Group filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register certain
securities (the Shelf Registration). This registration provides the Company with a vehicle to offer various securities to the public, when it deems appropriate, to raise proceeds up to an amount not to exceed $1.0 billion in the
aggregate for all issuances of securities thereunder. See the Notes to the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein. Through March 31, 2002 the Company issued securities in the form
of senior indebtedness of the MONY Group aggregating $575.0 million pursuant to this Shelf Registration.





Capitalization





The Companys total capitalization, excluding accumulated comprehensive income and short term debt, increased to
$2,608.0 million at March 31, 2002, as compared to $2,592.9 million at December 31, 2001. The increase was primarily due to income from operations. The Companys debt to equity ratio (excluding accumulated comprehensive income and short term
debt) remained unchanged at 29.0% at March 31, 2002 from December 31, 2001. The Companys debt to total capitalization ratio (excluding accumulated comprehensive income and short term debt) also remained unchanged at 22.0% at March 31, 2002
from December 31, 2001.





MONY Life





MONY Lifes cash inflows are provided mainly from life insurance premiums, annuity considerations and deposit funds, investment income and maturities and sales of invested assets.
Cash outflows primarily relate to the liabilities associated with its various life insurance and annuity products, dividends to policyholders, operating expenses, income taxes, acquisitions of invested assets, and principal and interest on its
outstanding debt obligations. The life insurance and annuity liabilities relate to MONY Lifes obligation to make benefit payments under its insurance and annuity contracts, as well as the need to make payments in connection with policy
surrenders, withdrawals and loans.





The following table sets forth the withdrawal characteristics and the surrender and
withdrawal experience of MONY Lifes total annuity reserves and deposit liabilities at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

Annuity surrenders decreased for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 compared to the comparable prior year period reflecting the Companys conservation efforts and positive effects of the FPVA exchange
program.





The Companys principle sources of liquidity to meet cash flow needs are its portfolio of liquid assets and its
net operating cash flow. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 the net cash inflow from operations was $64.6 million, a $71.8 million increase from March 31, 2001 which was $(7.2) million. The increase primarily relates to higher
payments from the Group Pension Transaction and lower general expenses. The Companys liquid assets include substantial U.S. Treasury holdings, short-term money market investments and marketable long-term fixed maturity securities. Management
believes that the Companys sources of liquidity are adequate to meet its anticipated needs. As of March 31, 2002, the Company had readily marketable fixed maturity securities with a carrying value of $6,920.2 million (including fixed
maturities in the Closed Block), which were comprised of $3,870.0 million public and $3,050.2 million private fixed maturity securities. At that date, approximately 91.7% of the Companys fixed maturity securities were designated in The
Securities Valuation Office of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) rating categories 1 and 2 (considered investment grade, with a rating of Baa or higher by Moodys or BBB or higher by
S&P). In addition, at March 31, 2002 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $535.2 million (including cash and cash equivalents in the Closed Block).

|(1) |  | The increase in net investment income yields was primarily due to an increase in limited partnership income included in the equity securities asset category of $10.6 million
for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002. The net investment income yields excluding the limited partnership income are 6.8% and 7.0% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

investments) was 6.8% and 6.7% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.





Fixed Maturities





Fixed maturities consist of publicly traded debt securities, privately placed debt securities and small amounts of redeemable preferred stock, and
represented 62.3% and 62.8% of total invested assets at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.





The securities
Valuation office of the NAIC evaluates the bond investments of insurers for regulatory reporting purposes and assigns securities to one of six investment categories called NAIC Designations. The NAIC Designations closely mirror the
Nationally Recognized Securities Rating Organizations credit ratings for marketable bonds. NAIC Designations 1 and 2 include bonds considered investment grade (Baa or higher by Moodys, or BBB or higher by S&P)
by such rating organizations. NAIC Designations 3 through 6 are referred to as below investment grade (Ba or lower by Moodys, or BB or lower by S&P).





The following table presents the Companys fixed maturities by NAIC Designation and the equivalent ratings of the Nationally Recognized Rating Organizations as of the dates
indicated, as well as the percentage, based on fair value, that each designation comprises.

Of the Companys total portfolio of fixed maturity securities at March 31,
2002, 91.7% were investment grade and 8.3% were below-investment grade, based on designations assigned by the Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC.





The Company reviews all fixed maturity securities at least once each quarter and identifies investments that management concludes require additional monitoring. Among the criteria are: (i) violation of financial
covenants, (ii) public securities trading at a substantial discount as a result of specific credit concerns, and (iii) other subjective factors relating to the issuer.





The Company defines problem securities in the fixed maturity category as securities (i) as to which principal and/or interest payments are in default or are to be restructured pursuant
to commenced negotiations or (ii) issued by a company that went into bankruptcy subsequent to the acquisition of such securities or (iii) are deemed to have other than temporary impairments to value.





The Company defines potential problem securities in the fixed maturity category as securities that are deemed to be experiencing significant operating
problems or difficult industry conditions. Typically these credits are experiencing or anticipating liquidity constraints, having difficulty meeting projections/budgets and would most likely be considered a below investment grade risk.




30




---




The Company defines restructured securities in the fixed maturity category as securities where
a concession has been granted to the borrower related to the borrowers financial difficulties that the Company would not have otherwise considered. The Company restructures certain securities in instances where a determination was made that
greater economic value will be realized under the new terms than through liquidation or other disposition. The terms of the restructure generally involve some or all of the following characteristics: a reduction in the interest rate, an extension of
the maturity date and a partial forgiveness of principal and/or interest. There were no restructured fixed maturities at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001.





As of March 31, 2002 the fair value of the Companys problem, potential problem and restructured fixed maturities were $55.2 million, $15.7 million and $0.0 million, respectively, which, in the aggregate,
represented approximately 1.0% of total fixed maturities. As of December 31, 2001, the fair value of the Companys problem, potential problem and restructured fixed maturities were $66.7 million, $16.1 million and $0.0 million, respectively,
which, in the aggregate, represented approximately 1.2% of total fixed maturities.





At March 31, 2002, the Companys
largest unaffiliated single concentration of fixed maturities was $310.0 million of Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) fixed maturities which represents 2.8% of total invested assets. The largest non-government issuer consists
of $203.5 million of notes purchased in connection with the Group Pension Transaction. These notes represent approximately 1.8% of total invested assets at March 31, 2002. No other individual non-government issuer represents more than 0.4% of total
invested assets.





The Company held approximately $1,131.2 million and $1,088.0 million of mortgage-backed and asset-backed
securities as of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. Of such amounts, $371.6 million and $294.9 million, or 32.9% and 27.1%, respectively, represented agency-issued pass-through and collateralized mortgage obligations
(CMOs) secured by Federal National Mortgage Association, FHLMC, Government National Mortgage Association and Canadian Housing Authority collateral. The balance of such amounts was comprised of other types of mortgage-backed and
asset-backed securities. The Company believes that its active monitoring of its portfolio of mortgage-backed securities and the limited extent of its holdings of more volatile types of mortgage-backed securities mitigate the Companys exposure
to losses from prepayment risk associated with interest rate fluctuations for this portfolio. At March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, 88.4% and 87.0%, respectively, of the Companys mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities were assigned an
NAIC Designation of 1 at such dates.

as well as other asset-backed securities, held by the Company as of the dates indicated.

Mortgage Loans





Mortgage loans, consisting of commercial, agricultural and residential loans, comprised 15.9% and 16.3% of total invested assets at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. As
of March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, commercial mortgage loans comprised $1,460.9 million and $1,507.8 million or 82.9% and 83.3% of total mortgage loan investments, respectively. Agricultural loans comprised $301.5 million and $301.1 million or
17.1% and 16.6% of total mortgage loans, respectively. Residential mortgages comprised $0.8 million and $0.8 million or 0.05% and 0.1% of total mortgage loan investments at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively.





Commercial Mortgage Loans





For commercial mortgages, the carrying value of the largest amount loaned on any one single property aggregated $53.0 million and represented less than 0.5% of general account invested assets as of March 31, 2002. Amounts loaned on 20
properties were $20.0 million or greater, representing in the aggregate 31.9% of the total carrying value of the commercial loan portfolio at the same date. Total mortgage loans to the five largest borrowers accounted in the aggregate for
approximately 17.8% of the total carrying value of the commercial loan portfolio and less than 3.0% of the total invested assets at March 31, 2002.





Problem, Potential Problem and Restructured Commercial Mortgages





Commercial mortgage
loans are stated at their unpaid principal balances, net of valuation allowances and writedowns for impairment. The Company provides valuation allowances for commercial mortgage loans considered to be impaired. Mortgage loans are considered impaired
when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. When the Company determines that a loan is impaired, a valuation
allowance for loss is established for the excess of the carrying value of the mortgage loan over its estimated fair value. Estimated fair value is based on the fair value of the collateral. The provision for loss is reported as a realized loss on
investment.





The Company reviews its mortgage loan portfolio and analyzes the need for a valuation allowance for any loan which
is delinquent for 60 days or more, in process of foreclosure, restructured, on watchlist, or which currently has a valuation allowance. Loans which are delinquent and loans in process of foreclosure are categorized by the Company as
problem loans. Loans with valuation allowances, but which are not currently delinquent, and loans which are on watchlist are categorized by the Company as potential problem loans. Loans for which the original terms of the
mortgages have been modified or for which interest or principal payments have been deferred are categorized by the Company as restructured loans.




32




---




The carrying value of commercial mortgage loans at March 31, 2002 was $1,460.8 million, which
amount is net of valuation allowances aggregating $16.6 million, representing managements best estimate of cumulative impairments at such date. However, there can be no assurance that increases in valuation allowances will not be necessary.
Any such increases may have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position and results of operations.





As of
March 31, 2002 the carrying value of problem loans aggregated $5.4 million net of $0.1 million in valuation allowances, potential problem securities aggregated $60.7 million net of $6.5 million in valuation allowances and restructured loans
aggregated $57.9 million net of $4.5 million in valuation allowances.





In addition to valuation allowances and impairment
writedowns recorded on specific commercial mortgage loans classified as problem, potential problem, and restructured mortgage loans, the Company records a non-specific estimate of expected losses on all other such mortgage loans based on its
historical loss experience for such investments. As of March 31, 2002, such reserves were $17.7 million.





Agricultural
Mortgage Loans





The carrying value of the Companys agricultural mortgage loans was $301.5 million at March 31, 2002
representing 17.1% of total mortgage assets and 2.9% of general account invested assets at such dates. The agricultural mortgage portfolio is diversified both geographically and by type of product. The security for these loans includes row crops,
permanent plantings, dairies, ranches and timber tracts.





The Company defines problem, potential problem and restructured
agricultural mortgages in the same manner as it does for commercial mortgages. Total problem, potential problem and restructured agricultural mortgages as of March 31, 2002 were $25.8 million.

Equity Securities





Common Stocks





The Companys investments in
common stocks represented 0.6% and 0.6% of invested assets at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. The Companys investments in common stocks are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at estimated fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses on the Companys common stocks are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes, and an adjustment for the effect on deferred policy acquisition costs that would have
occurred if such gains and losses had been realized.





Limited partnership interests





The Company accounts for its investments in limited partnership interests in accordance with either the equity method of accounting or the cost method
of accounting depending upon the Companys percentage of ownership of the partnership and the date the partnership was acquired.

partnership which represents 2.1% and 2.1%, respectively, of the Companys general account invested assets. Investments results for the portfolio are dependent upon, among other things, general market conditions for initial and secondary
offerings of common stock. For the three-month periods ended March  31, 2002 and 2001, investment income from equity partnership interest (which is comprised primarily of the Companys pro rata share of income reported by partnership
investments accounted for under the equity method and income recognized upon distribution for partnership investments accounted for under the cost method) was approximately $5.0 million and $(4.8) million respectively.
