Item 5.02 Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On March 25, 2014 (the “Deconsolidation Date”), ING Groep N.V. (“ING Group”) completed a sale (the “Sale”) of common stock of ING U.S., Inc. (the “Company”) sufficient to reduce its ownership of Company common stock to approximately 43% of the total amount outstanding. As a consequence of the Sale, ING Group has ceased to be the majority stockholder of the Company, and, due to the Sale and certain changes to the composition of the Company’s board of directors, ING Group has announced that it will no longer consolidate the financial results of the Company with ING Group’s financial statements as prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards.

Effective upon the Deconsolidation Date, following the foregoing events, the Company has implemented changes to the compensation arrangements of Rodney O. Martin, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Ewout L. Steenbergen, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as described in the following paragraph. Each of Messrs. Martin and Steenbergen are named executive officers of the Company.

Messrs. Martin and Steenbergen have each been awarded a salary supplement, in the amount of $250,000 and $200,000, respectively, payable in cash over the remainder of 2014. These amounts are not considered eligible base salary for purposes of variable compensation targets set under the Company’s annual and long-term incentive compensation programs, or for the Company’s pension and deferred compensation plans.
