Item 8.01. Other Events.

As announced, on April 3, 2006, we entered into an agreement with Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”) to purchase shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $500 million under an accelerated stock buyback program. Goldman Sachs delivered approximately 8 million shares to us on April 11, 2006. On July 18, 2006, Goldman Sachs delivered an additional 779,000 shares as the final delivery of shares under the program bringing the total number of shares delivered under the program to 8.84 million. The shares will be retired and recorded as a reduction in shareholders’ equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In the ordinary course of their business, Goldman Sachs and its affiliates have engaged, and may in the future engage, in financial advisory and/or investment banking transactions with LNC and its affiliates. They have received and will receive customary fees and commissions for these transactions.
