This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. In particular, statements using verbs such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe” or words of similar import generally involve forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, forward-looking statements include statements which represent the Registrant’s beliefs concerning future or projected levels of sales of the Registrant’s products, investment spreads or yields, or the earnings or profitability of the Registrant’s activities.

These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Registrant. Whether or not actual results differ materially from forward-looking statements may depend on numerous foreseeable and unforeseeable events or developments, some of which may be national in scope, such as general economic conditions and interest rates, some of which may be related to the insurance industry generally, such as pricing competition, regulatory developments and industry consolidation, and others of which may relate to the Registrant specifically, such as credit, volatility and other risks associated with the Registrant’s investment portfolio, and other factors. Readers should also consider other matters, including any risks and uncertainties, discussed in documents filed by the Registrant and certain of its subsidiaries with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(Lifeco) has reported net income attributable to common shareholders of $537 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, up 9% compared to net income of $491 million reported a year ago. On a per share basis, this represents $0.601 per common share for the three months ended December 31, 2007 compared to $0.550 per common share for 2006. The strength of the Canadian dollar reduced net income reported by the Company in the quarter by approximately $0.043 per common share, or $38 million. On a constant currency basis, net income attributable to common shareholders increased 17% over 2006.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders was $2,153 million compared to $1,875 million reported a year ago.

Adjusted net income excludes a $97 million after-tax provision for certain Canadian retirement plans that was recorded in the third quarter of 2007. Net income attributable to common shareholders after this provision was $2,056 million or $2.304 per common share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007.

This release contains some forward-looking statements about the Company, including its business operations, strategy and expected financial performance and condition. Forward-looking statements include statements that are predictive in nature, depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, or include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates” or negative versions thereof and similar expressions. In addition, any statement that may be made concerning future financial performance (including revenues, earnings or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or prospects, and possible future Company action is also a forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are inherently subject to, among other things, risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Company, economic factors and the financial services industry generally, including the insurance and mutual fund industries. They are not guarantees of future performance, and actual events and results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements made by the Company due to, but not limited to, important factors such as sales levels, premium income, fee income, expense levels, mortality experience,
morbidity experience, policy lapse rates and taxes, as well as general economic, political and market factors in North America and internationally, interest and foreign exchange rates, global equity and capital markets, business competition, technological change, changes in government regulations, unexpected judicial or regulatory proceedings, catastrophic events, and the Company’s ability to complete strategic transactions and integrate acquisitions. The reader is cautioned that the foregoing list of important factors is not exhaustive, and there may be other factors listed in other filings with securities regulators, including factors set out under “Risk Management and Control Practices” in the Company’s 2007 Annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis, which, along with other filings, is available for review at www.sedar.com. The reader is also cautioned to consider these and other factors carefully and to not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Other than as specifically required by applicable law, the Company has no intention to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP financial measures are used to provide management and investors with additional measures of performance. However, non-GAAP financial measures do not have standard meanings prescribed by GAAP and are not directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Please refer to the appropriate reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to measures prescribed by GAAP.
