PERFORMANCE GRAPHS
The following two performance graphs compare our total return to shareholders with the returns of indexes of other specified
companies and the S&P 500 Index. The first graph compares the cumulative five-year total return to shareholders on our
common stock relative to the cumulative total returns of the S&P 500 index and a customized peer group of certain Fortune 50
companies (the “Fortune 50 Group”), for the five-year period ended December 31, 2011. The second graph compares our
cumulative total return to shareholders with the S&P 500 Index and an index of a group of peer companies selected by us for
the five-year period ended December 31, 2011. We are not included in either the Fortune 50 Group index in the first graph or
the peer group index in the second graph. In calculating the cumulative total shareholder return of the indexes, the shareholder
returns of the Fortune 50 Group companies in the first graph and the peer group companies in the second graph are weighted
according to the stock market capitalizations of the companies at January 1 of each year. The comparisons assume the
investment of $100 on December 31, 2006 in our common stock and in each index, and that dividends were reinvested when
paid.
Fortune 50 Group
The Fortune 50 Group consists of the following companies: American International Group, Inc., Berkshire Hathaway Inc.,
Cardinal Health, Inc., Citigroup Inc., General Electric Company, International Business Machines Corporation and Johnson &
Johnson. Although there are differences in terms of size and industry, like UnitedHealth Group, all of these companies are large
multi-segment companies using a well-defined operating model in one or more broad sectors of the economy.
