CNO Financial Group 3 Non-GAAP Measures This presentation contains the following financial measures that differ from the comparable measures under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP): operating earnings measures; book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) per share; operating return measures; earnings before net realized investment gains (losses) and corporate interest and taxes; and debt to capital ratios, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Reconciliations between those non-GAAP measures and the comparable GAAP measures are included in the Appendix, or on the page such measure is presented. While management believes these measures are useful to enhance understanding and comparability of our financial results, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered substitutes for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Additional information concerning non-GAAP measures is included in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are available in the “Investors – SEC Filings” section of CNO’s website, www.CNOinc.com.

CNO Financial Group 4 Adoption of New Accounting Standard Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted ASU 2010-26 which modified the definition of the types of acquisition costs that can be deferred by insurance companies. We elected to adopt the new guidance on a retrospective basis. Accordingly, all prior periods presented have been retrospectively adjusted. The new guidance impacts the timing of the recognition of profits on our business, but has no impact on cash flows, statutory financial results or the ultimate profitability of the business.

CNO Financial Group 24 2Q12 Investment Summary and Outlook CNO Market Observations U.S. yields at record lows as investors move to a “risk- off” posture, bearish on Europe and global growth. This trend is amplified by decent U.S. corporate fundamentals, hence continued strong demand for credit. Most structured credit markets face ongoing supply/demand imbalance due to limited new issue volume and ongoing pay down proceeds Recent pressure on equities and risky assets caused by lack of clarity on Chinese growth, fiscal dynamics in peripheral Europe. Fed’s extended low rate policy has marginal accreting effect on portfolio yield Credit migration trends continue to be moderate Probability for QE3 or some other form of monetary stimulus is likely higher What we are doing… Remain engaged with credit, but cautious on high beta names See rate and credit markets as largely range- bound for near term but likely brief episodes of volatility Realize spreads could continue to grind tighter Buyer of select non-agency RMBS, ABS, and high yield No curve position (ALM match neutral) Seeking attractive opportunities to increase our allocation to A quality commercial mortgages

CNO Financial Group 25 2Q12 Consolidated Summary CNO *Management believes that an analysis of net income applicable to common stock before: (1) loss on extinguishment of debt, net of income taxes; (2) net realized investment gains or losses, net of related amortization and income taxes; (3) increases or decreases in the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets; and (4) fair value changes due to fluctuations in the interest rates used to discount embedded derivative liabilities related to our fixed index annuities, net of related amortization and income taxes (“Net operating income,” a non- GAAP financial measure) is important to evaluate the financial performance of the company, and is a key measure commonly used in the life insurance industry. Management uses this measure to evaluate performance because such items can be affected by events that are unrelated to the company’s underlying fundamentals. The table on page 39 reconciles the non-GAAP measure to the corresponding GAAP measure. ** A non-GAAP measure.

CNO Financial Group 51 Information Related to Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures The following provides additional information regarding certain non-GAAP measures used in this presentation. A non-GAAP measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. While management believes these measures are useful to enhance understanding and comparability of our financial results, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. Additional information concerning non-GAAP measures is included in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are available in the “Investors – SEC Filings” section of CNO’s website, www.CNOinc.com. Operating earnings measures Management believes that an analysis of net income applicable to common stock before loss on extinguishment of debt, net realized gains or losses, fair value changes due to fluctuations in the interest rates used to discount embedded derivative liabilities related to our fixed index annuities and increases or decreases to our valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (“net operating income,” a non-GAAP financial measure) is important to evaluate the performance of the Company and is a key measure commonly used in the life insurance industry. Management uses this measure to evaluate performance because these items are unrelated to the Company’s continuing operations.

CNO Financial Group 54 Information Related to Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures Book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), per share This non-GAAP financial measure differs from book value per share because accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) has been excluded from the book value used to determine the measure. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful because it removes the volatility that arises from changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Such volatility is often caused by changes in the estimated fair value of our investment portfolio resulting from changes in general market interest rates rather than the business decisions made by management. 2Q11 3Q11 4Q11 1Q12 2Q12 Total shareholders' equity 4,036.3$ 4,536.2$ 4,613.8$ 4,683.0$ 4,893.1$ Less accumulated other comprehensive income 395.5 750.9 781.6 808.0 990.8 Total shareholders' equity excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (a non-GAAP financial measure) 3,640.8$ 3,785.3$ 3,832.2$ 3,875.0$ 3,902.3$ Shares outstanding for the period 249,415,210 243,247,260 241,304,503 239,219,445 234,026,409 Book value per share 16.18$ 18.65$ 19.12$ 19.58$ 20.91$ Less accumulated other comprehensive income 1.58 3.09 3.24 3.38 4.24 Book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income, per share (a non-GAAP financial measure) 14.60$ 15.56$ 15.88$ 16.20$ 16.67$ A reconciliation from book value per share to book value per share, excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is as follows (dollars in millions, except per share amounts):

CNO Financial Group 55 Information Related to Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures Operating return measures Management believes that an analysis of return before loss on extinguishment of debt, net realized gains or losses, fair value changes due to fluctuations in the interest rates used to discount embedded derivative liabilities related to our fixed index annuities and increases or decreases to our valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (“net operating income,” a non-GAAP financial measure) is important to evaluate the performance of the Company and is a key measure commonly used in the life insurance industry. Management uses this measure to evaluate performance because these items are unrelated to the Company’s continued operations. This non-GAAP financial measure also differs from return on equity because accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) has been excluded from the value of equity used to determine this ratio. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful because it removes the volatility that arises from changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Such volatility is often caused by changes in the estimated fair value of our investment portfolio resulting from changes in general market interest rates rather than the business decisions made by management. In addition, our equity includes the value of significant net operating loss carryforwards (included in income tax assets). In accordance with GAAP, these assets are not discounted, and accordingly will not provide a return to shareholders (until after it is realized as a reduction to taxes that would otherwise be paid). Management believes that excluding this value from the equity component of this measure enhances the understanding of the effect these non-discounted assets have on operating returns and the comparability of these measures from period-to- period. Operating return measures are used in measuring the performance of our business units and are used as a basis for incentive compensation. All references to return on allocated capital measures assume a capital allocation based on a 275% targeted risk-based capital at the segment level. Additionally, corporate debt has been allocated to the segments.
