[1] The Company classifies gains and losses on GMWB reinsurance derivatives and Guaranteed Living Benefit embedded derivatives as unrealized
gains (losses) for purposes of disclosure in this table because it is impracticable to track on a contract-by-contract basis the realized gains
(losses) for these derivatives and embedded derivatives.
[2] All amounts are before income taxes and amortization of DAC.
[3] The ‘Purchases, issuances, and settlements’ primarily relates to the receipt of cash on futures and option contracts classified as Level 1 and
interest rate, currency and credit default swaps classified as Level 2.
[4] Disclosure of changes in unrealized gains (losses) are not required for Levels 1 and 2. Information presented is for Level 3 only.
[5] The variable annuity hedging derivatives and the macro hedge program derivatives are reported in this table on a net basis for asset/(liability)
positions and reported on the consolidated balance sheet in other investments and other liabilities.
[6] Includes both market and non-market impacts in deriving realized and unrealized gains (losses).
