DEFINITIONS AND PRESENTATION

• P&C Operationsincludes Standard Lines and Specialty Lines.

• Life & Group Non-Coresegment primarily includes the results of the life and group lines of business that have been sold or placed in run-off.

• Corporate & Other Non-Coresegment includes the results of certain property and casualty lines of business placed in run-off, including CNA Re. This segment also includes the results related to the centralized adjusting and settlement of asbestos, environmental pollution and mass tort (APMT) claims and interest expense on corporate debt.

• Property and Casualty Companiesincludes Standard Lines, Specialty Lines and P&C business written in the Life & Group Non-Core and Corporate & Other Non-Core segments.

• Management utilizes the net operating income financial measure to monitor the Company’s operations. Please refer to Note N of the Consolidated Financial Statements within the 2005 Form 10-K for further discussion of this measure.

• In evaluating the results of the Standard Lines and Specialty Lines, management utilizes the combined ratio, the loss ratio, the expense ratio, and the dividend ratio. These ratios are calculated using financial results prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The loss ratio is the percentage of net incurred claim and claim adjustment expenses to net earned premiums. The expense ratio is the percentage of insurance underwriting and acquisition expenses, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums. The dividend ratio is the ratio of policyholders’ dividends incurred to net earned premiums. The combined ratio is the sum of the loss, expense and dividend ratios.

• Limited partnerships (LPs) are a relatively small portion of CNA’s overall investment portfolio. The majority of the LPs invest in a substantial number of securities that are readily marketable. CNA is primarily a passive investor in such partnerships and does not have influence over the partnerships’ management, who are committed to operate them according to established guidelines and strategies. These strategies may include the use of leverage and hedging techniques that potentially introduce more volatility and risk to the partnerships.

• Certain immaterial differences are due to rounding.

• N/M = Not Meaningful

Restatement for Discontinued Operations

The Company has restated its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005. A review of discontinued operations completed in February 2006 identified an overstatement of the net assets of these discontinued operations and errors in accounting for the periodic results of these operations. The Company did not have an effectively designed control process in place to ensure adequate oversight, analysis, reconciliation, documentation and periodic evaluation of the results and balances that comprise the net assets of businesses reported as discontinued operations. There was also a lack of understanding of subsidiary ledger detail which contributed to the Company’s failure to eliminate intercompany activity within discontinued operations and between continuing and discontinued operations. As a result, the balances related to discontinued operations were incorrectly established in the Company’s current general ledger system in 1997 in connection with a general ledger conversion, creating an overstatement of the reported net assets of discontinued operations. In addition, the Company’s evaluation of the periodic results of discontinued operations was ineffective. The correction of the elimination issue noted above caused the historical results of discontinued operations to change, requiring current evaluation of the revised periodic results for reporting purposes. Further, in light of the impact of the elimination corrections, the Company reviewed its historical process to evaluate the results of discontinued operations and determined that process did not address recorded loss reserves at all consolidating levels for discontinued operations. Therefore, the Company determined that it was appropriate to recognize the impact of the revised historical periodic income or loss of discontinued operations.

Restatement for Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 has been restated to reflect the following:

• Net purchases and sales of trading securities and changes in the net receivable/payable from unsettled investment purchases and sales related to trading securities, previously classified within investing activities, have been reclassified to cash flows from operating activities.

• Cash flows from equity method investees were reclassified to distinguish between return on investments, which are reflected within operating cash flows, and return of investments, which are reflected within investing cash flows. Previously, all amounts were reflected within investing cash flows.

• Deposits and withdrawals related to investment contract products issued by the Company have been reflected within financing cash flows. Previously, amounts related to certain investment contracts were reflected within operating cash flows.

• The impact of cumulative translation adjustment, previously reflected within investing activities, is now classified within operating activities.

The restatements related to cash flows had no impact on the total change in cash from continuing operations within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Additionally, the Company has revised its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 to separately disclose the operating, investing and financing portions of the cash flows attributable to discontinued operations, as well as to include the cash balance related to discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The results and ratios before the impact of catastrophes, presented on pages 15 and 16 of this financial supplement, are non-GAAP financial measures that are not a full financial presentation in accordance with GAAP. To allow the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures, however, these pages also provide the most comparable GAAP measures (i.e., the results and ratios after the impact of catastrophes).
