THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Travelers Insurance Company (TIC, together with its subsidiaries,
the Company), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup Insurance
Holding Corporation (CIHC), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
Citigroup Inc. (Citigroup). Citigroup is a diversified global financial
services holding company whose businesses provide a broad range of
financial services to consumer and corporate customers around the
world. The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying
footnotes of the Company are prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP)
and are unaudited. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and benefits
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

The Company's two reportable business segments are Travelers Life &
Annuity and Primerica Life Insurance. The primary insurance entities of
the Company are TIC and its subsidiaries The Travelers Life and Annuity
Company (TLAC), included in the Travelers Life & Annuity segment, and
Primerica Life Insurance Company (Primerica Life) and its subsidiaries,
Primerica Life Insurance Company of Canada, CitiLife Financial Limited
(CitiLife) and National Benefit Life Insurance Company (NBL), included
in the Primerica Life Insurance segment. The condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the insurance entities of
the Company and Tribeca Citigroup Investments Ltd., among others, on a
fully consolidated basis.

In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect
all adjustments necessary (all of which were normal recurring
adjustments) for a fair presentation of results for the periods
reported. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002. The condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2002 was derived from the
audited balance sheet included in the Form 10-K.

Certain financial information that is normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, but is not
required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
2003 presentation.

2. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES

On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities" (FAS 146). FAS 146 requires that a liability for costs
associated with exit or disposal activities, other than in a business
combination, be recognized when the liability is incurred. Previous
generally accepted accounting principles provided for the recognition
of such costs at the date of management's commitment to an exit plan.
In addition, FAS 146 requires that the liability be measured at fair
value and be adjusted for changes in estimated cash flows. The
provisions of the new standard are effective for exit or

7



THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)

disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of
FAS 146 did not affect the Company's consolidated financial statements.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

On January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value recognition
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (FAS 123), prospectively for
all awards granted, modified, or settled after January 1, 2003. The
prospective method is one of the adoption methods provided for under
FAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and
Disclosure," issued in December 2002. FAS 123 requires that
compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and recognized
over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). This
compensation cost is determined using option pricing models, intended
to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. Similar to
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees," the alternative method of accounting, an
offsetting increase to stockholders' equity under FAS 123 is recorded
equal to the amount of compensation expense charged.

Had the Company applied FAS 123 in accounting for Citigroup stock
option plans for all options granted, net income would have been the
pro forma amounts indicated below:

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED

CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

In January 2003, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 46,
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN 46). This
Interpretation changes the method of determining whether certain
entities should be included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements. An entity is subject to FIN 46 and is called a variable
interest entity (VIE) if it has (1) equity that is insufficient to
permit the entity to finance its activities without additional
subordinated financial support from other parties, or (2) equity
investors that cannot make significant decisions about the entity's
operations, or that do not absorb the expected losses or receive the
expected returns of the entity. All other entities are evaluated for
consolidation under FAS No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned
Subsidiaries." A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which
is the party involved with the VIE that has a majority of the expected
losses or a majority of the expected residual returns or both.

The provisions of FIN 46 are to be applied immediately to VIEs created
after January 31, 2003, and to VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an
interest after that date. For VIEs in which an enterprise holds a
variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003, FIN 46
applies in the first fiscal period beginning after June 15, 2003. For
any VIEs that must be consolidated under FIN 46 that were created
before February 1, 2003, the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling
interest of the VIE would be initially measured at their carrying
amounts with any difference between the net amount added to the balance
sheet and any previously recognized interest being recognized as the
cumulative effect of an accounting change. If determining the

8



THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)

carrying amounts is not practicable, fair value at the date FIN 46
first applies may be used to measure the assets, liabilities and
noncontrolling interest of the VIE.

The Company has investments in entities that may be considered to be
variable interests. The carrying value of these investments is
approximately $2.4 billion and primarily consists of interests in
security investment funds in the amount of $905 million and real estate
investment funds in the amount of $315 million, below investment grade
asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities and equity investments in
the amount of $1.2 billion, and a collateralized bond obligation in the
amount of $4 million.

The Company continues to evaluate the impact of applying FIN 46 to
entities acquired before February 1, 2003; however, at this time, it is
anticipated that the effect on the Company's consolidated balance
sheets is not expected to increase assets and liabilities by more than
$1 billion. No entities were created between February 1, 2003 and June
30, 2003 that would require application of FIN 46.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement
133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (FAS 149). FAS
149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts,
and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." In particular, this
Statement clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial
net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative and when a
derivative contains a financing component that warrants special
reporting in the statement of cash flows. This Statement is generally
effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003
and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.

ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING BY INSURANCE ENTERPRISES FOR CERTAIN
NONTRADITIONAL LONG-DURATION CONTRACTS AND FOR SEPARATE ACCOUNTS

In July 2003, Statement of Position 03-01, "Accounting and Reporting by
Insurance Enterprises for Certain Nontraditional Long-Duration
Contracts and for Separate Accounts" (SOP 03-01) was released. SOP
03-01 provides guidance on accounting and reporting by insurance
enterprises for separate account presentation, accounting for an
insurer's interest in a separate account, transfers to a separate
account, valuation of certain liabilities, contracts with death or
other benefit features, contracts that provide annuitization benefits,
and sales inducements to contract holders. SOP 03-01 is effective for
financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2003. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SOP 03-01
will have on its financial statements.

3. INVESTMENTS

The Company participates in dollar roll repurchase transactions as a
way to generate investment income. These transactions involve the sale
of mortgage-backed securities with the agreement to repurchase
substantially the same securities from the same counterparty. Cash is
received from the sale, which is invested in the Company's short-term
money market pool. The cash is returned at the end of the roll period
when the mortgage-backed securities are repurchased. The Company will
generate additional investment income based upon the difference between
the sale and repurchase prices.

9



THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)

This transaction is recorded as a securitized borrowing. The
mortgage-backed securities remain recorded as assets. The cash proceeds
are reflected in short-term investments and a liability is established
to reflect the Company's obligation to repurchase the securities at the
end of the roll period. The collateral amount is classified as Other
Liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and was $887
million and $.5 million at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002,
respectively.

4. OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Company has two reportable business segments that are separately
managed due to differences in products, services, marketing strategy
and resource management. The business of each segment is maintained and
reported through separate legal entities within the Company. The
management groups of each segment report separately to the Company's
ultimate parent, Citigroup.

TRAVELERS LIFE & ANNUITY (TLA) core offerings include individual
annuity, individual life, corporate owned life insurance (COLI) and
group annuity insurance products distributed by TIC and TLAC
principally under the Travelers Life & Annuity name. Among the range of
individual products offered are fixed and variable deferred annuities,
payout annuities and term, universal and variable life insurance. The
COLI product is a variable universal life product distributed through
independent specialty brokers. The group products include institutional
pensions, including guaranteed investment contracts, payout annuities,
group annuities sold to employer-sponsored retirement and savings plans
and structured finance funding agreements. The majority of the annuity
business and a substantial portion of the life business written by TLA
are accounted for as investment contracts, with the result that the
deposits collected are reported as liabilities and are not included in
revenues.

The PRIMERICA LIFE INSURANCE business segment consolidates primarily
the business of Primerica Life, Primerica Life Insurance Company of
Canada, CitiLife and NBL. The Primerica Life Insurance business segment
offers individual life products, primarily term insurance, to customers
through a sales force of approximately 108,000 agents. A great majority
of the domestic licensed sales force works on a part-time basis. NBL
also provides statutory disability benefit insurance and other
insurance, primarily in New York, as well as direct response student
term life insurance nationwide. CitiLife was established in September
2000 to underwrite insurance in Europe. Primerica Life, directly or
through its subsidiaries, is licensed or otherwise authorized to sell
and market term life insurance in all 50 states, the District of
Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana
Islands, Canada, the United Kingdom and Spain.

The majority of the annuity business and a substantial portion of the
life business written by TLA are accounted for as investment contracts,
with the result that the deposits collected are reported as liabilities
and are not included in revenues. Deposits represent an operating
statistic integral to managing TLA operations, which management uses
for measuring business volumes, and may not be comparable to similarly
captioned measurements used by other life insurance companies. For the
three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, deposits amounted to $2.6
billion and $3.9 billion, respectively.

The majority of the annuity business and a substantial portion of the
life business written by TLA are accounted for as investment contracts,
with the result that the deposits collected are reported as liabilities
and are not included in revenues. Deposits represent an operating
statistic integral to managing TLA operations, which management uses
for measuring business volumes, and may not be comparable to similarly
captioned measurements used by other life insurance companies. For the
six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, deposits amounted to $5.7
billion and $7.0 billion, respectively.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)

5. SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY

Statutory capital and surplus of the Company was $6.9 billion at
December 31, 2002. The Company is currently subject to various
regulatory restrictions that limit the maximum amount of dividends
available to be paid to its parent without prior approval of insurance
regulatory authorities. A maximum of $966 million is available by the
end of the year 2003 for such dividends without prior approval of the
State of Connecticut Insurance Department, depending upon the amount
and timing of the payments. TLAC may not pay a dividend to TIC without
such approval. Primerica Life may pay up to $148 million in dividends
to TIC in 2003 without prior approval of the Massachusetts Insurance
Department. Primerica Life paid $35 million and $110 million in
dividends to TIC during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. The Company paid $163 million and $428 million in
dividends to its parent during the six months ended June 30, 2003 and
2002, respectively.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a defendant or co-defendant in various litigation
matters in the normal course of business. These include civil actions,
arbitration proceedings and other matters arising in the normal course
of business out of activities as an insurance company, a broker and
dealer in securities or otherwise. In the opinion of the Company's
management, the ultimate resolution of these legal proceedings would
not be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

The Company is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (the
"Bank"), and in this capacity has entered into a funding agreement (the
"agreement") with the Bank where a blanket-lien has been granted to
collateralize the Bank's deposits. The Company maintains control of
these assets, and may use, commingle, encumber or dispose of any
portion of the collateral as long as there is no event of default and
the remaining qualified collateral is sufficient to satisfy the
collateral maintenance level. The agreement further states that upon
any event of default, the Bank's recovery is limited to the amount of
the member's outstanding funding agreement. The amount of the Company's
liability for funding agreements with the Bank as of June 30, 2003 is
$800 million, included in contractholder funds.

(1) Net income before realized investment portfolio gains/(losses) is a non-GAAP
measure. The Company believes that this presentation of income, which management
uses internally to measure performance, is useful to investors because it
enhances the understanding of ongoing operations and the underlying trends of
the business. The timing of realized investment portfolio gains and losses can
be significantly impacted by both discretionary and other economic factors and
therefore management believes it is important to understand the impact of
realized investment gains and losses in order to evaluate current operating
trends.

The Travelers Insurance Company (TIC, together with its subsidiaries, the
Company), is comprised of two business segments, Travelers Life & Annuity and
Primerica Life Insurance.

Net income increased 42% to $315 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003
from $222 million in the prior year quarter, primarily related to increased
revenues due to higher investment income, favorable business volumes and lower
net after-tax realized investment losses, partially offset by higher deferred
acquisition costs (DAC) amortization. Net income included net after-tax realized
investment losses of $1 million and $119 million in the second quarter of 2003
and 2002, respectively. Included in these net after-tax realized investment
losses are impairments of investments primarily in the fixed income portfolio,
in the amount of $26 million and $180 million, net of tax, in the second quarter
of 2003 and 2002, respectively. These impairments were offset by gains on sales
of fixed maturities. The second quarter 2002 losses were primarily related to
the impairment of investments in debt securities of WorldCom Inc. in the amount
of $126 million, net of tax. Net income before realized investment portfolio
losses decreased 7% to $316 million in the second quarter of 2003 from $341
million in the prior year period, primarily related to higher DAC amortization
and interest credited, partially offset by higher investment income and
favorable business volumes.

14



THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased 24% to $676 million,
from $543 million, primarily related to current year net after-tax realized
investment gains and prior year investment losses, and a $39 million tax benefit
related to an adjustment to the Dividends Received Deduction (DRD) in the first
quarter of 2003, partially offset by higher DAC amortization. Net after-tax
realized investment gains were $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003
and losses were $102 million for the prior year period, primarily related to the
second quarter 2002 impairment of investments in debt securities of WorldCom
Inc. in the amount of $126 million, after-tax. Net income before realized
investment gains (losses) increased 5% to $675 million from $645 million,
reflecting higher investment income and favorable business volumes.

Travelers Life & Annuity (TLA) core offerings include individual annuity,
individual life, corporate owned life insurance (COLI) and group annuity
insurance products distributed by TIC and The Travelers Life and Annuity Company
(TLAC) principally under the Travelers Life & Annuity name. Among the range of
individual products offered are fixed and variable deferred annuities, payout
annuities and term, universal and variable life insurance. These products are
primarily distributed through CitiStreet Retirement Services, Smith Barney
Financial Consultants, Primerica Financial Services, Citibank, and a nationwide
network of independent agents and the growing outside broker dealer channel. The
COLI product is a variable universal life product distributed through
independent specialty brokers. The group products include institutional
pensions, including guaranteed investment contracts (GICs), payout annuities,
group annuities sold to employer-sponsored retirement and savings plans and
structured finance funding agreements. The majority of the annuity business and
a substantial portion of the life business written by TLA are accounted for as
investment contracts, with the result that the deposits collected are reported
as liabilities and are not included in revenues.

TLA's business is significantly affected by movements in the U.S. equity and
fixed income credit markets. U.S. equity and credit market events can have both
positive and negative effects on the deposit, revenue and policy retention
performance of the business. A sustained weakness in the equity markets will
decrease revenues and earnings in variable products. Declines in credit quality
of issuers will have a negative effect on earnings. These statements are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 21.

THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES


Net income of $206 million in the second quarter of 2003 increased 63% from $126
million, primarily related to increased revenues due to higher investment
income, favorable business volumes and lower net after-tax realized investment
losses, partially reduced by higher DAC amortization. Net after-tax realized
investment losses were $3 million and $112 million for the second quarter of
2003 and 2002, respectively, primarily related to the second quarter 2002
impairments of investments in debt securities of WorldCom Inc. in the amount of
$122 million, after-tax. Net income before realized investment losses was $209
million in the second quarter of 2003 compared to $238 million in the second
quarter of 2002. The 12% decrease in 2003 reflects higher DAC amortization and
interest credited, partially offset by higher investment income and favorable
business volumes.

Net investment income (NII) increased $9 million to $673 million for the second
quarter of 2003 from $664 million in the second quarter of 2002. This increase
was driven by a larger invested asset base from increased business volumes,
which helped offset deterioration in fixed income yields. Equity investment
returns also contributed to the NII growth as a result of risk arbitrage
activity in the Company's trading portfolio.

The following table shows net written premiums and deposits by product type for
the quarters ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. The majority of the annuity business
and a substantial portion of the life business written by TLA are accounted for
as investment contracts, such that the premiums are considered deposits and are
not included in revenues. Deposits represent an operating statistic integral to
managing TLA operations, which management uses for measuring business volumes,
and may not be comparable to similarly captioned measurements used by other life
insurance companies.

Individual annuity deposits of $1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2003
decreased 27% from $1.5 billion in the second quarter of 2002, reflecting a
decline in fixed annuity sales due to competitive pressures and lower variable
annuity sales due to current equity market conditions. Individual annuity
account balances increased 6% to $29.8 billion at June 30, 2003, from $28.1
billion at June 30, 2002, reflecting market appreciation in the second quarter
of 2003, plus good in-force retention.

Group Annuity written premiums decreased 24% to $152 million, primarily related
to a decrease in sales of employer-sponsored payout plans. Deposits (excluding
Citigroup's employee pension plan deposits) of $1.2 billion in the second
quarter of 2003 were down 44% from $2.1 billion in the comparable period of
2002, which reflects lower guaranteed investment contract (GIC) sales, both
fixed and variable. The fixed GIC decrease primarily related to the absence of
significant European Medium Term Note transactions, while the variable GIC sales
decrease was market related. These GIC decreases were partially offset by strong
structured settlement sales. Group Annuity account balances and benefits
reserves reached $23.6 billion at June 30, 2003, up 5% from

16



THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

$22.5 billion at June 30, 2002. This volume growth reflects 2003 first quarter
fixed GIC production and continued strong retention in all products.

Deposits for the life insurance business were $207 million in the second quarter
of 2003, up 7% from $194 million in the comparable period of 2002, driven by
stronger single premium sales, higher direct periodic deposits and lower COLI
sales. Life insurance in force was $84.8 billion at June 30, 2003, up from $82.3
billion at December 31, 2002.

In the second quarter of 2003, TLA operating expenses increased 46% from the
prior year quarter primarily due to volume-related insurance expenses, and an
increase of $21 million in DAC amortization. Amortization expense has increased
due to a higher amortization rate resulting from the decrease in market value of
individual annuity account balances. The amortization of capitalized DAC is a
significant component of TLA expenses. TLA's recording of DAC varies based upon
product type. DAC for deferred annuities, both fixed and variable, and payout
annuities employs a level yield methodology. DAC for universal life and COLI are
amortized in relation to estimated gross profits, with traditional life,
including term insurance and other products, amortized in relation to
anticipated premiums.

The Primerica Life Insurance business segment offers individual life products,
primarily term insurance, to customers through a sales force of approximately
108,000 agents. A great majority of the domestic licensed sales force works on a
part-time basis.

Net income of $109 million in the second quarter of 2003 increased 14% from $96
million. Included in net income are current year realized investment gains of $2
million and prior year investment losses of $7 million in the second quarter of
2003 and 2002, respectively. The prior year losses were primarily due to
impairment of investments in debt securities of WorldCom Inc. Net income before
realized investment portfolio gains (losses) was $107 million in the second
quarter of 2003 compared to $103 million in the second quarter of 2002. The 4%
improvement in 2003 reflects growth in life insurance in force and volume
related investment income.

Total life insurance in force reached $486.6 billion at June 30, 2003, up from
$466.8 billion at December 31, 2002, reflecting good in-force policy retention
and higher volume of sales. The face amount of new term life insurance sales was
$20.9 billion for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $20.8
billion for the prior year period.

THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NII increased 11% to $78 million in the second quarter of 2003 from the prior
year quarter, primarily related to a larger invested asset base, offset by lower
yields.

The amortization of capitalized DAC, which increased to $57 million in the
second quarter of 2003 from $55 million in the second quarter of 2002, is a
significant component of Primerica Life's expenses. All of Primerica Life's DAC
is associated with term insurance products, which are amortized in relation to
anticipated premiums. Amortized DAC has remained level as a percentage of direct
premiums. The increase in the amount of amortization over 2002 is associated
with growth in sales and in-force business.

Earned premiums net of reinsurance were $307 million in the second quarter of
2003 compared to $297 million in the prior year period, including $290 million
and $280 million, respectively, for Primerica Life individual term life
policies.

respectively, primarily related to the second quarter 2002 impairment of
investments in debt securities of WorldCom Inc. in the amount of $122 million,
after tax. Net income before realized investment portfolio losses increased 4%
to $463 million from $447 million, reflecting higher investment income and

Individual annuity deposits of $2.1 billion in the first six months of 2003
decreased 30% from $3.0 billion in the prior year period, reflecting a decline
in fixed annuity sales due to competitive pressures and lower variable annuity
sales due to current equity market conditions.

Group Annuity written premiums decreased 6% to $269 million for the first six
months of 2003, compared to the 2002 period, primarily related to a decrease in
sales of employer-sponsored payout plans. Deposits (excluding Citigroup's
employee pension plan deposits) of $3.2 billion in the first six months of 2003
were down 11% from $3.6 billion in the comparable period of 2002, which reflects
lower guaranteed investment contract (GIC) sales, both fixed and variable. The
fixed GIC decrease primarily related to the absence of significant European
Medium Term Note transactions, while the variable GIC sales decrease was market
related. These GIC decreases were partially offset by strong structured
settlement sales.

Deposits for the life insurance business were $409 million in the first six
months of 2003, down 9% from $450 million in the comparable period of 2002,
driven by weaker single premium sales, lower direct periodic deposits and lower
COLI sales, primarily occurring in the first quarter.

For the first six months of 2003, TLA operating expenses increased 64% from the
comparable prior year six-month period, primarily due to an increase of $67
million of DAC amortization. Amortization has increased due to a higher
amortization rate resulting from the decrease in market value of individual
annuity account balances. Also, during the first quarter of 2002, TLA had a
one-time decrease in DAC amortization of $22 million related to changes in the
underlying lapse and interest rate assumptions in the individual annuity
business. The amortization of capitalized DAC is a significant component of TLA
expenses. TLA's recording of DAC varies based upon product type. DAC for
deferred annuities, both fixed and variable, and payout annuities employs a
level yield methodology. DAC for universal life and COLI are amortized in
relation to estimated gross profits, with traditional life, including term

gains (losses) increased 7% to $212 million in 2003, compared to $198 million in
2002.

NII increased 9% to $156 million for the six months of 2003 from the prior year,
primarily related to a larger invested asset base, offset by lower yields.

The amortization of capitalized DAC, which increased to $113 million in the
first six months of 2003 from $108 million in the prior year period, is a

INSURANCE REGULATIONS

Risk-based capital requirements are used as minimum capital requirements by the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners and the states to identify
companies that merit further regulatory action. At December 31, 2002, the
Company had adjusted capital in excess of amounts requiring any regulatory
action.

THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

The Company is subject to various regulatory restrictions that limit the maximum
amount of dividends available to be paid to its parent without prior approval of
insurance regulatory authorities in the state of domicile. A maximum of $966
million is available by the end of 2003 for such dividends without prior
approval of the State of Connecticut Insurance Department, depending upon the
amount and timing of the payments. TLAC may not pay a dividend to TIC without
such approval. Primerica Life may pay up to $148 million in dividends to TIC
without prior approval of the Massachusetts Insurance Department. Primerica Life
paid $35 million and $110 million in dividends to TIC during the six months
ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The Company paid $163 million and
$428 million in dividends to its parent during the six months ended June 30,
2003 and 2002, respectively.

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

On May 28, 2003, the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 was
enacted into law. This act makes various changes in individual tax rates. Most
significantly, the legislation extends the 15% maximum capital gains tax rate to
corporate dividends received by individuals, including dividends received by
mutual funds and passed through to mutual fund shareholders. The legislation
also lowers the capital gains tax rate and accelerates the individual income tax
rate reductions enacted in 2001. These changes could have a negative impact on
demand for life and annuity products. This statement is a forward-looking
statement within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.
