+Added: Reserve for Future Policy Benefits
+Added: On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standard Board's ("FASB") updated guidance on accounting for long duration insurance contracts, which was applied on a modified retrospective basis as of January 1, 2021.
+Added: The new guidance requires the discount rate assumption to be updated, as of the transition date and quarterly going forward, to a current upper-medium grade fixed-income investment yield, which has been interpreted to represent a yield based on single-A credit rated fixed maturity instruments with similar duration to the liability.
+Added: The new guidance also eliminated the requirement to adjust the reserve for future policy benefits for unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturity investments as if those unrealized gains and losses were realized (referred to as shadow reserves).
+Added: The change in the reserve estimate resulting from updating the discount rate assumptions and eliminating shadow reserves was recognized as a net cumulative effect adjustment that increased the reserve for future policy benefits by $ 85 and decreased AOCI by $ 65 , net of deferred tax effects.
+Added: The new guidance also requires that underlying cash flow assumptions (i.e., mortality, lapse and expense) in the reserve for future policy benefits be based on best estimate assumptions.
+Added: The adjustments to the reserve for future policy benefits at adoption resulted in establishing a deferred profit liability ("DPL") on limited pay contracts of $ 18 representing the estimated profits based on best estimate cash flow assumptions.
+Added: The effect of adopting this guidance on the Company’s reserve for future policy benefits was as follows:

+Added: Reserve for Future Policy Benefits
+Added: The Company’s reserves for future policy benefits includes paid-up life insurance and whole-life policies resulting from conversion from group life policies included within the Group Benefits segment and reserves for run-off structured settlement and terminal funding agreement liabilities, which are reported in the Corporate category.
+Added: Contracts are grouped into cohorts by contract type and issue year.
+Added: The Company establishes reserves for future policy benefits using the net premium approach, which represents the present value of future policyholder benefits and related expenses less the present value of future net premiums.
+Added: Net premiums are calculated by multiplying gross premiums for the contracts in a specific cohort by a net premium ratio.
+Added: The net premium ratio is determined for the lifetime of a given cohort as the present value of net benefits divided by the present value of gross premiums.
+Added: Related expenses include termination and settlement costs and exclude acquisition costs and non-claim related costs, such as costs relating to investments, general administration, policy maintenance, product development, market research and general overhead or any other costs, which are expensed as incurred.
+Added: The Company estimates premiums, benefits and related expense cash flows using methods that include assumptions, such as estimates of mortality, lapse, and claim-related expenses, and the possible impact of inflation on those expenses.
+Added: Benefits include all guaranteed cash flows to be paid to the policyholder.
+Added: The reserve for future policy benefits is adjusted for differences between actual and expected experience.
+Added: Each quarter, the Company updates its estimates of cash flows expected over the life of a group of contracts using actual historical experience.
+Added: These updated cash flows are used to calculate the revised net premiums and net premium ratio, which are used to derive an updated reserve for future policy benefits.
+Added: In subsequent periods, the revised net premiums are used to measure the reserve for future policy benefits, subject to future revisions.
+Added: Future cash flow assumptions, including mortality, lapse and expense are reviewed and, if a change is indicated, updated at least annually in the third quarter.
+Added: The difference between the newly calculated reserve balance and the reserve balance before updating for actual experience and/or future cash flow assumptions is the remeasurement gain or loss, which is immaterial for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and is presented in benefits losses and loss adjustments expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
+Added: Changes to the reserve due to updates to cash flow assumptions discounted at the discount rate used immediately prior to transition are recognized on a catch-up basis in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
+Added: The discount rate assumption is an equivalent single rate that is based on a current market observable, upper-medium grade fixed maturity yield.
+Added: This has been interpreted to represent a yield based on single-A credit rated fixed maturity instruments with similar duration to the liability.
+Added: The Company uses the yield of a market observable index of single-A credit rated fixed maturities as the basis for setting the discount rate.
+Added: The discount rate assumption is updated quarterly and the change in the reserve estimate resulting from updating the discount rate assumption is recognized in other comprehensive income.

The Hartford Writing Companies maintain that they have no coverage obligations with respect to these suits for business income allegedly lost by the plaintiffs due to the COVID-19 pandemic based on the clear terms of the applicable insurance policies.
−Removed: Although the policy terms vary depending, among other things, upon the size, nature, and location of the policyholder’s business, in general, the claims at issue in these lawsuits were denied because the claimant identified no direct physical damage or loss to property at the insured premises, and the governmental orders that led to the complete or partial shutdown of the business were not due to the existence of any direct physical loss or damage in the immediate vicinity of the insured premises and did not prohibit access to the insured premises, as required by the terms of the insurance policies.
+Added: Although the policy terms vary depending, among other things, upon the size, nature, and location of the policyholder’s business, in general, the claims at issue in these lawsuits were denied because the claimant identified no direct physical damage or loss to property at the insured premises, and the governmental orders that led to the complete or partial shutdown of the business were not due to the existence of any direct physical damage or loss in the immediate vicinity of the insured premises and did not prohibit access to the insured premises, as required by the terms of the insurance policies.
In addition, the vast majority of the policies at issue expressly exclude from coverage any loss caused directly or indirectly by the presence, growth, proliferation, spread or activity of a virus, subject to a narrow set of exceptions not applicable in connection with this pandemic, and contain a pollution and contamination exclusion that, among other things, expressly excludes from coverage any loss caused by material that threatens human health or welfare.

+Added: In the case of the reserves for environmental exposures, factors contributing to the high degree of uncertainty include expanding theories of liability and damages against insureds, emerging risks such as per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances ("PFAS"), the risks inherent in major litigation, inconsistent and emerging legal doctrines concerning the existence and scope of coverage for environmental claims, and the scope and level of complexity of the remediation required by regulators.
