 [home address] 
 Dear Maliz,

 I am very pleased to extend an offer of employment with ING (herein referred to as the Company*)! The purpose of this letter is to set forth
the provisions of our offer for the position of Chief Executive Officer, ING Retirement. We ask that the provisions set forth in this letter remain confidential and, unless otherwise directed, any questions you have regarding these provisions should
be discussed with me. 
 Start Date: Your start date will be June 1, 2011. 

Base Salary: Your annual base salary will be $600,000 payable semi-monthly in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices.
You will be scheduled for a performance review at our next common anniversary date of March 2012, and annually thereafter. The Company reserves the right to review and adjust compensation to reflect what is appropriate for each position and
consistent with your performance. 
 Incentive Compensation Plan: You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s
Incentive Compensation Plan (ICP) starting on your start date. For the 2011 plan year, your ICP award opportunity will be prorated based on your start date. ICP awards are typically paid in March following each plan year. Your target incentive award
is 125% of your base salary. Please note that we recently implemented an ICP deferral program, pursuant to which ICP awards above Euro 100,000 are subject to partial deferral. The deferral amounts start at 10% of the total award for total ICP awards
between Euro 100,000 and Euro 200,000. The deferral percentage increases by 10 percentage points on the incremental amount for each Euro 100,000 above Euro 200,000 up to a maximum of 50 percent. Deferred amounts are converted into ING Group stock
and vest ratably over three years, subject to the terms and conditions of the deferral plan. Please note that ICP awards are not guaranteed. The ICP is a discretionary plan and the Company reserves the right to modify or discontinue the plan at any
time. 

  

					
		  		  	

 Long-Term Incentive Program: You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s
long-term incentive plan called Long-term Sustainable Performance Plan (LSPP). The LSPP makes grants of ING performance shares that vest under the terms of the LSPP, and, depending on the circumstances, of ING shares of restricted stock that also
vest under the terms of the plan. Your annual target economic value will be 125% of your base salary under the same terms and conditions as similarly situated employees. Grants under this plan are made annually, typically in March. 

As an added feature of your compensation package, ING will make a special grant in September, 2011 of ING performance shares under the LSPP equal in
value on the date of grant to 125% of your annual base salary ($750,000), that will vest ratably and be paid based on performance as set forth under the terms of the LSPP. You will be eligible for another grant on our normal grant date in March 2012
and then annually thereafter. ING LSPP grants are reviewed each year and are not guaranteed; therefore, your ongoing participation is at the discretion of the Company. The LSPP is a discretionary plan and the Company reserves the right to modify or
discontinue the plan at any time. 
 Special Deal Incentive Award: You will be eligible to receive a special one-time deal
incentive award with an aggregate value of $1,500,000 (the “Deal Incentive Award”). While the specific terms and conditions of this Deal Incentive Award are still under review and have not been finalized, the current thinking is that the
value of your Deal Incentive Award would be converted into restricted shares of the company holding the US Insurance businesses (“Newco”) at the time of its initial public offering (“IPO”), that your Newco shares would vest in
two 50% tranches over a period (or periods) of time and upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, and would be subject to a further mandatory holding period after their vesting dates (provided, however, that sufficient shares may be sold to cover
the payment of taxes due upon vesting). 
 In the event there were to be no IPO and Newco instead were divested by means of a trade sale, then
50% of the value of the Deal Incentive Award would be paid to you in cash upon the date of closing of such disposition (the “Closing Date”), provided you are employed by the Company on such Closing Date, and the remaining 50% of the Deal
Incentive Award would be paid to you in cash on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “First Anniversary”), provided you are still employed by the Company (defined to include its successor for purposes of this section) on the date
of the First Anniversary. If you are terminated for reasons other than Cause by the Company, or by any of its successors, during the period after the Closing Date and prior to the First Anniversary, then the remaining 50% of the Deal Incentive Award
would immediately vest and be payable to you upon your date of involuntary termination for reasons other than Cause. 
 If you are not employed
by the Company at the end of the lock-up period relating to the Newco IPO (i.e., such date that is 180 days after the date of IPO, the “IPO Lock-Up Period”), or in the event of no IPO, on the Closing Date, then you will not receive any of
the Deal Incentive Award, except as otherwise provided below under “Termination of Employment”. Further, if you cease to be employed either (i) by Newco, for any reason, after the last date of the IPO Lock-Up Period but prior to the
earlier of (a) the end of the lock-up period relating to a secondary offering of its stock (i.e., such date that is 90 days after such secondary offering of Newco stock, the “Secondary Lock-Up Period”), or (b) the date of closing
of a merger of Newco or (ii) by the trade sale purchaser of the US insurance business, either voluntarily or for Cause, prior to the First Anniversary, then you will not receive or vest in the second 50% of the Deal Incentive Award. You will
receive more details on the Deal Incentive Award as soon as they are available. 

  

					
		  	2	  	

 Termination of Employment: In addition to any severance benefit to which you may be entitled,
if your employment is terminated by ING without Cause prior to the earlier of (i) the first vesting of 50% of the Newco IPO shares or (ii) the Closing Date of a trade sale of Newco, then you will be paid a taxable cash lump sum payment
equal to $600,000. For purposes of this Offer Letter, “Cause” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following: (i) your gross or willful misconduct that causes demonstrable and serious injury to ING; (ii) your failure to adhere
to any written policy of the Company applicable to you including, but not limited to, the Code of Conduct, the Code of Ethics and the Personal Trading Policy; (iii) your conduct that may have a material and adverse impact on the Company’s
standing and reputation (including but not limited to, the conviction for (or its procedural equivalent), or the entering of a guilty plea or plea of no contest with respect to, a felony, the equivalent thereof, or any other crime with respect to
which imprisonment is a possible punishment); (iv) your continued and unjustified failure or refusal to perform the duties required of you by ING, which failure or refusal is not cured within thirty (30) days following your receipt of
written notice from your supervisor, specifying the factors or events constituting such failure or refusal; or (v) the willful misappropriation (or attempted misappropriation) of any of ING’s or any ING customer’s funds or property.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this letter to the contrary, ING and you agree to cooperate in good faith so that all payments made under this letter will conform and fully comply with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the
regulations promulgated thereunder. 
 Severance Benefits: Under the current ING Americas severance plan, your severance benefit
would equate to 52 weeks of base salary continuation. To provide added assurance to you, ING will guarantee this level of benefit coverage for you for a period of two years from your date of hire even in the event the levels of benefit under the
policy were otherwise to be changed during such period. 
 Deferred Compensation Savings Plan: You will be eligible to participate
in the Company’s Deferred Compensation Savings Plan (DCSP) effective on your date of hire. If you would like to receive a copy of the plan details and enrollment materials please contact Paula Ward at (770) 933-3639. You must return your
enrollment forms to the Executive Compensation Department within 30 days of your date of hire to participate in 2011. Deferrals start as soon as practical after you submit your elections. 
 401(k) (ING Americas Savings Plan and ESOP (“Savings Plan”): ING’s Savings Plan matches 100% of the first 6% of eligible compensation you contribute, subject to IRS limits.
You may enroll in the Savings Plan as soon as the plan administrator receives your payroll data (usually within 1 week of your hire date). If you do not enroll within your first 60 days of employment, the Company does provide for automatic
enrollment at a rate of 3% of eligible pay after 60 days of your start date, and includes an automatic 1% escalation in contribution rate each March until it reaches 6%. You may change the amount of contributions or stop deferrals to the Savings
Plan and change investment elections at any time. You will receive enrollment instructions with your other benefit information. The Savings Plan also accepts rollovers from any other qualified plans at any time. The Company match of eligible
compensation begins upon your enrollment but is subject to a vesting schedule. 
 Employment Benefits: The Company offers flexible
benefits that you can use to build a benefits package that meets your needs (i.e., medical, dental, vision, life insurance, etc.). Benefits information will be mailed to you at your home address. These benefits are available immediately upon receipt
of enrollment materials at the benefits service center.

of 33 days of PTO, prorated based on your start date. The PTO Bank can be used for absences for vacation, personal time, family illness and individual sick days.

WHEREAS, the issuance and sale of $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of a new series of the Securities of the Company designated

WHEREAS, the Company desires to establish the form, terms and conditions of the Notes; and 

WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Second Supplemental Indenture a legal, valid and binding supplement to the Indenture according

 NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Notes by
the Holders thereof, the Company, the initial Subsidiary Guarantor and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Notes, as follows:

 (c) (i) If the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and such other certifications
and evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without compliance with any limits thereunder and that the Restricted Legend is no longer
necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of the Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act, 

(ii) after an Initial Note or any Initial Additional Note is (x) sold pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise, or (y) is validly tendered for exchange into an Exchange Note pursuant to an Exchange Offer, 
 the Company may instruct the Trustee in an Officers’ Certificate to cancel the Note and issue to the Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note of like tenor and amount, registered in the name
of the Holder thereof (or its transferee), that does not bear the Restricted Legend, and the Trustee will comply with such instruction. 
 (d) By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Restricted Legend (or any beneficial interest in such a Note), each Holder thereof and each owner of a beneficial interest therein acknowledges the
restrictions on transfer of such Note (and any such beneficial interest) set forth in this Second Supplemental Indenture and in the Restricted Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note (and any such beneficial interest) only in accordance
with this Second Supplemental Indenture and such legend. 
 Section 2.02. Paying Agent; Depository. (a) The
Company appoints the Trustee as the initial agent of the Company for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes, and the office of the Trustee located in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, be and
hereby is, designated as the office or agency where the Notes may be presented for payment and where notices to or demands upon the Company in respect of the Notes and the Indenture, as supplemented and amended by this Second Supplemental Indenture,

 (b) The Depository shall initially be DTC and any and all successors thereto appointed as Depository by the Company.

 Section 2.03. Registration, Transfer and Exchange. (a) Each Global Note will be registered in the name of
the Depository or its nominee and, so long as DTC is serving as the Depository thereof, will bear the DTC Legend. 
 (i) Each Global Note will be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for the Depository. Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but
not in part, to the Depository, its successors or their respective nominees, except (y) as set forth in (iii) of this Section 2.03(a) and (z) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Notes may be made upon
request of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depository in accordance with customary procedures of the Depository and in compliance with this
Section 2.03 and Section 2.04. 

  
 8 

 (ii) Agent Members will have no rights under this Second Supplemental
Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depository, and the Depository may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all
purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depository or its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person (including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through an Agent
Member) to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Second Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, and nothing herein will impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the
exercise of the rights of a holder of any security. 
 (iii) If (x) the Depository notifies the Company that
it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for a Global Note and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee has
received a written request from the Depository, the Trustee will promptly exchange each beneficial interest in the Global Note for one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in
the name of the owner of such beneficial interest, as identified to the Trustee by the Depository, and thereupon the Global Note will be deemed canceled. If such Note does not bear the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in
exchange therefor will not bear the Restricted Legend. If such Note bears the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will bear the Restricted Legend, provided that any Holder of any such Certificated Note
issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note will have the right upon presentation to the Trustee of a duly completed Certificate of Beneficial Ownership after the Restricted Period to exchange such Certificated
Note for a Certificated Note of like tenor and amount that does not bear the Restricted Legend, registered in the name of such Holder. 
 (b) Each Certificated Note will be registered in the name of the Holder thereof or its nominee. 
 (c) (i) Global Note to Global Note. If a beneficial interest in a Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Trustee will (y) record a
decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note being transferred or exchanged equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) record a like increase in the principal amount of the other Global Note. Any beneficial
interest in one Global Note that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Note, or exchanged for an interest in another Global Note, will, upon transfer or exchange, cease to be an interest in such
Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer and exchange restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long
as it remains such an interest. 

  
 9 

 (ii) Global Note to Certificated Note. If a beneficial interest in a
Global Note is transferred or exchanged for a Certificated Note, the Trustee will (y) record a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and (z) deliver one or more new
Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount to the transferee (in the case of a transfer) or the owner of such beneficial interest (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee
or owner, as applicable. 
 (iii) Certificated Note to Global Note. If a Certificated Note is transferred
or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel such Certificated Note, (y) record an increase in the principal amount of such Global Note equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange and
(z) in the event that such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate
principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered in the name of the Holder thereof. 
 (iv) Certificated Note to Certificated Note. If a Certificated Note is transferred or exchanged for another Certificated Note, the Trustee will (x) cancel the Certificated Note being
transferred or exchanged, (y) deliver one or more new Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such transfer or exchange to the transferee (in the case of a transfer)
or the Holder of the canceled Certificated Note (in the case of an exchange), registered in the name of such transferee or Holder, as applicable, and (z) if such transfer or exchange involves less than the entire principal amount of the
canceled Certificated Note, deliver to the Holder thereof one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an aggregate principal amount equal to the untransferred or unexchanged portion of the canceled Certificated Note, registered
in the name of the Holder thereof. 
 Section 2.04. Restrictions on Transfer and Exchange. (a) The transfer or
exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) may only be made in accordance with this Section 2.04 and Section 2.03 and, in the case of a Global Note (or a beneficial interest therein), the applicable rules and procedures of the
Depository. The Security Registrar shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that does not comply with the preceding sentence. 
 (b) Subject to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.04, the transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein) of the type set forth in column A below for a Note (or a beneficial
interest therein) of the type set forth opposite in column B below may only be made in compliance with the certification requirements (if any) described in the clause of this paragraph set forth opposite in column C below.

 (i) No certification is required. 

(ii) The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Security Registrar a duly
completed Regulation S Certificate; provided that if the requested transfer or exchange is made by the Holder of a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend, then no certification is required.

completed Rule 144A Certificate or (z) a duly completed Regulation S Certificate, and/or an Opinion of Counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require in order to determine that the proposed transfer or
exchange is being made in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States; provided that if the requested transfer or exchange is made by the Holder of a Certificated Note that does not
bear the Restricted Legend, then no certification is required. In the event that (y) the requested transfer or exchange takes place after the Restricted Period and a duly completed Regulation S Certificate is delivered to the Security Registrar
or (z) a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend is surrendered for transfer or exchange, upon transfer or exchange the Trustee will deliver a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend. 

(iv) The Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Security Registrar a duly
completed Rule 144A Certificate. 
 (v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no such
exchange is permitted if the requested exchange involves a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note. If the requested transfer involves a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note, the Person requesting the transfer must
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Security Registrar a duly completed Rule 144A Certificate or and/or an Opinion of Counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require in order to determine that the
proposed transfer is being made in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States. If the requested transfer or exchange involves a beneficial interest in a Permanent Offshore Global Note, no
certification is required and the Trustee will deliver a Certificated Note that does not bear the Restricted Legend. 
 (c) No
certification is required in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest therein): 
 (i) after such Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without the need for current public information; provided that the Company has
provided the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate to that effect, and the Company may require from any Person requesting a transfer or exchange in reliance upon this clause (i) an opinion of counsel and any other reasonable certifications
and evidence in order to support such certificate; or 
 (ii) (y) sold pursuant to an effective registration
statement, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise or (z) which is validly tendered for exchange into an Exchange Note pursuant to an Exchange Offer. 

  
 11 

 Any Certificated Note delivered in reliance upon this paragraph will not bear the Restricted Legend.

 (d) The Trustee will retain copies of all certificates, opinions and other documents received in connection with the transfer
or exchange of a Note (or a beneficial interest therein), and the Company will have the right to inspect and make copies thereof at any reasonable time upon written notice to the Trustee. 

(e) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer
imposed under this Second Supplemental Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depository participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note)
other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Second Supplemental Indenture, and to examine the same to
determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 
 Section 2.05. Temporary Offshore
Global Notes. (a) Each Note originally sold by the Initial Purchasers in reliance upon Regulation S will be evidenced by one or more Offshore Global Notes that bear the Temporary Offshore Global Note Legend. 

(b) An owner of a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note (or a Person acting on behalf of such an owner) may provide to
the Trustee (and the Trustee will accept) a duly completed Certificate of Beneficial Ownership at any time after the Restricted Period (it being understood that the Trustee will not accept any such certificate during the Restricted Period). Promptly
after acceptance of a Certificate of Beneficial Ownership with respect to such a beneficial interest, the Trustee will cause such beneficial interest to be exchanged for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Permanent Offshore Global Note, and will
(x) permanently reduce the principal amount of such Temporary Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial interest and (y) increase the principal amount of such Permanent Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial
interest. 
 (c) Notwithstanding paragraph (b), if after the Restricted Period any Initial Purchaser owns a beneficial interest
in a Temporary Offshore Global Note, such Initial Purchaser may, upon written request to the Trustee accompanied by a certification as to its status as an Initial Purchaser, exchange such beneficial interest for an equivalent beneficial interest in
a Permanent Offshore Global Note, and the Trustee will comply with such request and will (x) permanently reduce the principal amount of such Temporary Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial interest and (y) increase the
principal amount of such Permanent Offshore Global Note by the amount of such beneficial interest. 

  
 12 

 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any owner of a beneficial
interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note shall not be entitled to receive payment of principal or interest on such beneficial interest or other amounts in respect of such beneficial interest until such beneficial interest is exchanged for an
interest in a Permanent Offshore Global Note or transferred for an interest in another Global Note or a Certificated Note. 

Section 2.06. Terms of the Notes. The following terms relating to the Notes are hereby established: 

(a) Title. The Notes shall constitute a series of Securities having the title “2.9% Senior Notes due 2018.”

Notes”) of a series having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes including any Exchange Notes issued in exchange for such Additional Notes, except for the issue date, the public offering price
and, in some cases, the first Interest Payment Date and interest accrual date, provided that no Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, provided further that if any such additional Notes are
not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. Any Additional Notes and the existing Notes will constitute a single series under the Indenture
and all references to the relevant Notes shall include the Additional Notes unless the context otherwise requires. 
 (c)
Maturity Date. The entire outstanding principal of the Notes shall be payable on February 15, 2018. 
 (d)
Interest Rate. The rate at which the Notes shall bear interest shall be 2.9% per annum; the date from which interest shall accrue on the Notes shall be February 11, 2013, or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest
has been paid or provided for; the Interest Payment Dates for the Notes shall be February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning August 15, 2013 (whether or not a Business Day), provided, that interest payable at the Stated
Maturity or upon redemption will be paid to the person to whom principal is payable; the interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, will be paid, in immediately available funds, to the Persons in
whose names the Notes (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the February 1 or August 1, as the case may be, next preceding such Interest
Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day), provided, that interest payable at the Stated Maturity or upon redemption will be paid to the person to whom principal is payable. Payment of principal and interest on the Notes will be made at
the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or such other office or agency of the Company as may be designated for such purpose, in 

  
 13 

 
such currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that each installment of interest and
principal on the Notes may at the Company’s option be paid in immediately available funds by transfer to an account maintained by the payee located in the United States of America. 

(e) Currency. The currency of denomination of the Notes is United States Dollars. Payment of principal of and interest and
premium, if any, on the Notes will be made in United States Dollars. 
 Section 2.07. Optional Redemption.
(a) The provisions of Article 3 of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes. 
 (b) At any time and from time to time, the
Notes will be redeemable, as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option, on at least 30 days, but not more than 90 days, prior notice mailed to the registered address of each holder of the Notes, or provided by email or facsimile to the
Trustee for transmission to the Depository or its nominee or such other notice method in accordance with the Indenture as determined by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company or a certificate executed by certain Officers of the
Company (any such date fixed for redemption, an “Optional Redemption Date”), at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but
excluding, such Optional Redemption Date, or (ii) the Make-Whole Redemption Amount. 
 (c) Notwithstanding Article 3 of the
Indenture, the notice of redemption with respect to any redemption pursuant to Section 3.04 thereof need not set forth the Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof as described above. 

(d) On and after the Redemption Date for the Notes, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion thereof called for
redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price. On or before the Redemption Date for the Notes, the Company will deposit with a Paying Agent, or the Trustee, funds sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued
and unpaid interest on the Notes to be redeemed on such date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Notes or portions of the Notes to be redeemed by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate.
The Trustee may select for redemption Notes and portions of Notes in amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of any Note to be redeemed in part will not be less than $2,000,
and shall thereafter promptly notify the Company in writing of the numbers of Notes to be redeemed, in whole or in part. 

Section 2.08. Offer to Repurchase Upon A Change of Control Repurchase Event. (a) If a Change of Control Repurchase Event
occurs prior to the Termination Time, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, the Company shall make an offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to
integral multiples of $1,000 with no residual Notes less than $2,000) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes
repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control prior to the Termination Time, but after the public announcement
of the Change of Control, the Company will mail by first class mail or equivalent, a notice to each Holder of Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control
Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed. The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of
consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule
14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the
extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 2.08, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this
Section 2.08 by virtue of such conflict. 

  
 14 

 (b) On the repurchase date following a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Company
shall, to the extent lawful: 
 (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant
to the Company’s offer; 
 (ii) deposit with the Trustee an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price and
accrued interest in respect of all Notes or portions of the Notes properly tendered; and 
 (iii) deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchased by the Company. 

(c) The Trustee shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee will
promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of
$2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 (d) The Company shall not be required to make an offer to
repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirement for an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all
Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this
Section 2.08 shall not be applicable if the Change of Control or Below Investment Grade Ratings Event occurs after the Termination Time. 
 (f) For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s obligation to repurchase the Notes pursuant to this Section 2.08 is guaranteed by each Subsidiary Guarantor. 

  
 15 

 (g) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Change of Control Repurchase
Event unless and until it shall have received written notice thereof from the Company in accordance with Section 2.08(a). 

Section 2.09. Interest Rate Adjustments Upon Ratings Changes. (a) If, at any time prior to the Termination Time, the
rating on the Notes from either Rating Agency is downgraded (each such downgrade, a “Downgrade Event”) below the Baseline Ratings, the interest rate payable on the Notes will increase by 25 basis points for each one notch rating
downgrade by either Rating Agency. 
 (b) Following any Downgrade Event and prior to the Termination Time, the interest rate
payable on the Notes shall be increased or decreased from time to time so that, (i) to the extent that either Rating Agency maintains a rating on the Notes that is one or more notches below the Baseline Ratings, the interest rate has been
increased by 25 basis points (and only 25 basis points) for each such notch and (ii) if either Rating Agency maintains a rating that is at or above the Baseline Ratings, then all interest rate increases as a result of Downgrade Events with
respect to such Rating Agency shall be reversed. 
 (c) If at any time prior to the Termination Time the rating on the Notes
from either Rating Agency is withdrawn, suspended, or otherwise discontinued (a “Rating Withdrawal Event”), the interest rate payable on the Notes will increase by 100 basis points for each such Rating Withdrawal Event. For the
avoidance of doubt, any increase in the interest rate payable on the Notes due to a Rating Withdrawal Event shall be in lieu of, and not in addition to, any increase in the interest rate payable on the Notes due to a Downgrade Event. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made to the interest rate payable on the Notes solely as a result of any Rating Agency ceasing to provide a rating on the Notes if such Rating Agency ceases to provide ratings on all debt securities of issuers
in the life insurance industry generally or on all debt securities generally. 
 (d) If, following any Rating Withdrawal Event,
another Rating Agency shall provide a rating on the Notes, the increase in the interest rate resulting from such Rating Withdrawal Event shall be reversed upon the designation of the other Rating Agency as a substitute Rating Agency by the Company
through written notice to the Trustee. If such substitute Rating Agency shall initially assign a rating to the Notes that is below the Baseline Ratings, such assignment shall be deemed to be a Downgrade Event and the interest rate on the Notes shall
be adjusted in the manner described in this Section 2.09. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the
cumulative interest rate increase on the Notes as a result of all Downgrade Events or Rating Withdrawal Events exceed 200 basis points in the aggregate, and in no event shall the interest rate payable on the Notes be lower than 2.9%. 

(f) Any interest rate increase or decrease described in this Section 2.09 will take effect as of the first Business Day following
the public announcement of any ratings action that requires an adjustment to the interest rate (or, in the case of the designation of a substitute Rating Agency, upon the date of written notice to the Trustee of such designation). For the avoidance
of doubt, no interest rate increase or decrease described in this Section 2.09 shall have any effect on interest that shall have accrued on the Notes prior to such date or have any other retroactive effect. 

  
 16 

 (g) From and after the Termination Time, no further adjustment to the interest rate payable
on the Notes will be made in connection with any Downgrade Event or Rating Withdrawal Event. For the avoidance of doubt, the interest rate payable at the Termination Time as a result of the adjustments pursuant to this Section 2.09 (as it may
be additionally adjusted from time to time pursuant to any other provisions of the Indenture, as supplemented and amended by this Second Supplemental Indenture, or the Registration Rights Agreement) shall remain in effect until the Maturity, or
until the Notes are earlier redeemed or repurchased. 
 (h) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within five Business Days
after a Downgrade Event or Rating Withdrawal Event, or any reversal of an interest rate increase pursuant to Section 2.09(b), written notice stating that (i) the Downgrade Event or Rating Withdrawal Event, or subsequent reversal pursuant
to Section 2.09(b), as the case may be, has occurred and (ii) the new interest rate resulting from the Downgrade Event, Rating Withdrawal Event or subsequent reversal pursuant to Section 2.09(b). 

(i) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Downgrade Event or Rating Withdrawal Event, or resulting change in the
interest rate payable on any Notes unless and until it shall have received written notice thereof from the Company in accordance with Section 2.09(h).

 ARTICLE 4 
 GENERAL GUARANTEE AGREEMENT 

Section 4.01. General Guarantee Agreement Inapplicable. Without in any way limiting the obligations of the Company or any
Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, the General Guarantee Agreement dated April 17, 2012 by Lion Holdings in favor of each person to whom the Company may owe any obligations evidenced by senior unsecured debentures, notes or similar debt
instruments issued by the Company shall be inapplicable to the Securities. The Trustee shall not be entitled to enforce any rights under the General Guarantee Agreement with respect to any Securities or other obligation under this Second
Supplemental Indenture. The Trustee waives all rights and remedies it may have under the General Guarantee Agreement with respect to any obligation under this Second Supplemental Indenture. For the avoidance of doubt, any obligation under this
Second Supplemental Indenture is not an obligation as defined in the General Guarantee Agreement. This Article 4 does not in any way limit any obligation of the Company under any Securities or any Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee.

 This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, 

each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, 
 but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

 ING U.S., Inc., a Delaware corporation (herein called the “Company,” which term includes
any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to                     , or registered
assigns, the principal sum of $             on February 15, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”) (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to the Maturity Date) and
to pay interest thereon from February 11, 2013 (the “Original Issue Date”) or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for semi-annually at the rate of 2.9% per annum, on
February 15 and August 15 (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing August 15, 2013, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The rate of interest payable hereon is subject to
adjustment as provided in the Indenture (as defined below), but shall in no event be less than the rate stated above. 

Payment of Interest. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or made available for payment, on any Interest Payment Date,
will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid, in immediately available funds, to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor securities) is registered at the close of business on February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a
Business Day, as defined in the Indenture), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date (the “Regular Record Date”). Any such interest not punctually paid or duly provided for (“Defaulted
Interest”) will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and such Defaulted Interest, may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on a special record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than ten days prior to such Special
Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided
in said Indenture.

	2 	For Regulation S Note(s). 

  
 A-1

 Place of Payment. Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on this Note
will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or such other office or agency of the Company as may be designated for such purpose, in such currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts; provided, however, that each installment of interest, premium, if any, and principal on this Note may at the Company’s option be paid in immediately available funds by transfer to an account maintained by the
payee located in the United States of America. 
 Time of Payment. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, the
Maturity Date or any date fixed for redemption or repayment of the Notes shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture or this Note), payment of principal or interest, if any, need not be made on such date,
but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or the date so fixed for redemption or repayment, and no interest shall accrue in respect of the delay.

 General. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company, issued and to be issued in one or
more series under an indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of July 13, 2012, among the Company, Lion Connecticut Holdings Inc., as the initial Subsidiary Guarantor, and U.S. Bank National Association (herein called the
“Trustee,” which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture with respect to a series of which this Note is a part), as supplemented and amended by a Second Supplemental Indenture thereto, dated as of February 11,
2013 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto from time to time and the Trustee. Reference is hereby
made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the
Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities designated as “2.9% Senior Notes due 2018” (collectively, the “Notes”), initially limited in aggregate
principal amount to $1,000,000,000. 
 Further Issuance. The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the
Holders of the Notes, issue additional Securities (the “Additional Securities”) of this series having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes. Any Additional Securities of this series and
the Notes will constitute a single series under the Indenture and all references to the Notes shall include the Additional Securities unless the context otherwise requires; provided that if any such Additional Securities are not fungible with
the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Additional Securities shall have a separate CUSIP number. 
 Events of
Default. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

  
 A-2

 Sinking Fund. The Notes are not subject to any sinking fund. 

Redemption and Repurchase. The Notes are subject to optional redemption, and may be the subject of an offer to purchase upon the
occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, as further described in the Indenture. There is no sinking fund or mandatory redemption applicable to the Notes. 
 Restrictive Covenants. The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to create liens or the ability of the Company to
consolidate, merge or sell, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its assets. 
 Defeasance and Covenant
Defeasance. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Note and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related Defaults and Events of Default, upon compliance
by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Note. 
 Modification and Waivers;
Obligations of the Company Absolute. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of
each series. Such amendment may be effected under the Indenture at any time by the Company, and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of each series affected
thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all outstanding Securities, to waive compliance
by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of individual series to waive on behalf of
all of the Holders of Securities of such individual series certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon the Holder of this Note and upon all future Holders of this
Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the currency, herein prescribed. 
 Subsidiary Guarantees. This Note will be entitled to the benefits of certain Subsidiary Guarantees made for the benefit of the Holders. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of
the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and obligations thereunder of the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders. 
 Registration Rights. The Note will be entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated February 11, 2013, between the Company, the initial Subsidiary Guarantor and the
Initial Purchasers named therein, including the right to receive Additional Interest (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) as and when set forth therein.3 

 

	3 	Include only for Initial Note or Additional Note. 

  
 A-3

 No Recourse Against Others. No director, officer, agent, employee, incorporator,
stockholder, partner, member, or manager of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under any Notes, the Indenture or any Subsidiary Guarantee or for any claim
based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

 Limitation on Suits. As set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Note will have
any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to this series, the Holders
of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall have made written request, and offered indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee to institute such proceedings as Trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit
instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or interest on this Note on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 
 Authorized Denominations. The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

Registration of Transfer or Exchange. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set
forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the register of the Notes maintained by the Security Registrar upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer, at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of
and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holders surrendering the same. 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 

  
 A-4

 Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee
and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Holder as the owner hereof for all purposes (except with respect to certain payments of Defaulted Interest), whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any
such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Defined Terms. All terms used in this Note, which are defined
in the Indenture and are not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 

Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to
any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
