DEFINITIONS AND PRESENTATION

• P&C Operations includes Standard Lines and Specialty Lines.

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

• Corporate & Other Non-Core segment 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 Companies includes 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 to the Consolidated Financial Statements within the September 30, 2005 10-Q 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 GAAP financial results. 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 underwriting and acquisition expenses, including the amortization of deferred acquisition costs, to net earned premiums. The dividend ratio is the ratio of 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.

• On April 30, 2004, CNA completed the sale of its individual life insurance business. The business sold included term, universal and permanent life insurance policies and individual annuity products. CNA’s individual long term care and structured settlement businesses were excluded from the sale. Consideration from the sale was approximately $700 million, resulting in an after-tax realized investment loss on the sale of $389 million. The results of the business sold through the sale date are included in the statements of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. As a result of the sale, income statement results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 are not comparable to the corresponding 2004 results.

• All amounts are in millions, except for per share and ratio information.

• Certain immaterial differences are due to rounding.

Restatement for Reinsurance and Equity Investee Accounting

In May of 2005, the Company filed an amendment to its 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K to correct its accounting for several reinsurance contracts, primarily with a former affiliate, and its equity accounting for that affiliate. The Company restated its previously reported financial statements as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and all related disclosures, as well as its interim financial data for all interim periods of 2004 and 2003, through the filing of a Form 10-K/A. This Financial Supplement reflects the effects of the restatement. The restatement is based upon reconsideration of the Company’s accounting for its former equity interest in Accord Re Ltd. (Accord) and for several reinsurance contracts with Accord, but also includes two reinsurance agreements with unaffiliated parties that are immaterial in the aggregate. A subsidiary of The Continental Corporation (TCC) acquired a 49% ownership interest in Accord, a Bermuda company, in 1989 upon Accord’s formation. TCC also provided capital support to Accord through a guarantee from a TCC subsidiary. TCC was acquired by the Company in 1995.

Reinsurance relationships with Accord involved both property and casualty assumed reinsurance risks that were written by TCC subsidiaries and 100% ceded to Accord or reinsured from other cedents by Accord. Stop-loss protection in relation to those risks was obtained by Accord from a wholly-owned TCC subsidiary.

All of the Company’s reinsurance agreements with Accord relating to property risks were commuted as of year-end 2001, leaving six reinsurance agreements with Accord relating to casualty risks outstanding at that time. As of March 31, 2005 the Company provided no capital support to and had no ownership interest in Accord. During the period of the Company’s minority ownership, Accord also maintained reinsurance relationships with reinsurers unaffiliated with the Company.

As previously reported, the Company continues to respond to various subpoenas, interrogatories and other requests for information received from state and federal regulatory authorities relating to on-going insurance industry investigations of non-traditional insurance products, including finite reinsurance. In the course of complying with these requests the Company conducted a comprehensive review of its finite reinsurance relationships, including contracts with Accord.

The Company accounted for its reinsurance cessions to Accord and related retrocessions from Accord as reinsurance. In connection with the aforementioned review, the Company subsequently concluded that the reinsurance cession and retrocession should be viewed as a single transaction which does not transfer risk. The restatement corrections apply deposit accounting to the Company’s reinsurance cessions to Accord. The restatement corrections also include adjustments to the Company’s historical equity method accounting for its ownership and economic interest in Accord, including the effects of applying deposit accounting to certain of Accord’s reinsurance contracts with parties other than the Company. The remaining restatement corrections related to applying deposit accounting to two small reinsurance treaties unrelated to Accord that were previously accounted for using reinsurance accounting.

The impact of this revised accounting resulted in a reduction to stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2004 of $29 million, or 0.3%. The impact to net income for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2004 was $(1) million and $5 million, or (0.3)% and 1.1%. The net income adjustment for the earnings per share remained flat for the three months ended December 31, 2004, and increased earnings per share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 by $0.02 per share.

Restatement for Discontinued Operations

The Company will restate its annual financial statements for the years 2001 through 2004, as well as its interim financial statements through September 30, 2005. The restatement is to correct the accounting for discontinued operations acquired in the Company’s merger with The Continental Corporation in 1995. A current review of discontinued operations identified an overstatement of the net assets of these discontinued operations and errors in accounting for the periodic results of these operations.

This restatement will be reflected in the Company’s 2005 Form 10-K and will reduce stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2004 by $204 million, or 2.2%. The impact of this restatement on net income and earnings per share for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2004 is presented on page 2 of this financial supplement.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The results and ratios before the impact of significant commutations and catastrophes, presented on pages 15 through 18 of this financial supplement, are non-GAAP financial measures that are not a full financial presentation in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (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 significant commutations and catastrophes).
