</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) include the accounts of CNA Financial
Corporation (CNAF)&nbsp;and its controlled subsidiaries. Collectively, CNAF and its subsidiaries are
referred to as CNA or the Company. CNA&#146;s property and casualty and the remaining life and group
insurance operations are primarily conducted by Continental Casualty Company (CCC), The Continental
Insurance Company (CIC)&nbsp;and Continental Assurance Company (CAC). Loews Corporation (Loews) owned
approximately 91% of the outstanding common stock and 100% of the Series&nbsp;H preferred stock of CNAF
as of September&nbsp;30, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s individual life insurance business, including its previously wholly owned subsidiary
Valley Forge Life Insurance Company (VFL), was sold on April&nbsp;30, 2004 to Swiss Re Life &#038; Health
America, Inc. (Swiss Re). The results of the individual life insurance business sold through the
date of sale are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2004. See Note O for further information.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) have been prepared in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
Certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements, including
certain financial statement notes, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim
reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted. These statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in CNAF&#146;s Form
10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)&nbsp;for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2004. Certain amounts applicable to prior periods have been conformed to the current period
presentation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The interim financial data as of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and for the three and nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004 is unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, the interim data
includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement
of the Company&#146;s results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. All
significant intercompany amounts have been eliminated.<BR>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In December of 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)&nbsp;issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No.&nbsp;153, <U>Exchanges of Non-Monetary Assets &#150; an amendment of APB Opinion No.

expands the list of transactions that would not meet the definition of non-monetary transfer. SFAS
153 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after June&nbsp;15, 2005. Adoption of this standard did
not have a significant impact on the results of operations or equity of the Company.<BR>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note C. Earnings (Loss) Per Share</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Earnings (loss)&nbsp;per share available to common stockholders is based on weighted-average outstanding
shares. Basic and diluted earnings (loss)&nbsp;per share are computed by dividing net income available
to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock or common stock
equivalents outstanding for the period. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for
computing basic and diluted earnings per share was 256.0&nbsp;million for the three and nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Series&nbsp;H Cumulative Preferred Stock Issue (Series&nbsp;H Issue) is held by Loews and accrues
cumulative dividends at an initial rate of 8% per year, compounded annually. As of September&nbsp;30,
2005, the Company had $179&nbsp;million of undeclared but accumulated dividends. The Series&nbsp;H Issue
dividend amounts for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004 have been
subtracted from Net Income (Loss) to determine net income (loss)&nbsp;available to common stockholders.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Diluted earnings (loss)&nbsp;per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Since the net
results available to common stockholders for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004,
were losses, after deducting undeclared preferred stock dividends, no potentially dilutive common
shares were included in the computation of diluted loss per share. For the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004, approximately one million shares attributable to the exercise of
outstanding options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the
exercise price of these options was greater than the average market price of CNA common stock.

compared to realized investment losses of $62&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30,
2004. The increase in realized gains was primarily driven by favorable results in derivative
securities and improved results in corporate and other taxable bonds, partially offset by less
favorable results from tax-exempt bonds. Impairment losses of $17&nbsp;million and $19&nbsp;million were
recorded for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">investment results was due primarily to a $622&nbsp;million pretax loss on the sale of the individual
life insurance business in 2004. This improvement was partially offset by reduced gains for
equities securities, which was largely attributable to the 2004 gain of $162&nbsp;million pretax on the
disposition of Canary Wharf. Impairment losses of $71&nbsp;million were recorded for the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 across various sectors, including an impairment loss of $34&nbsp;million
related to loans made under a credit facility to a national contractor. See Note P for further
details. Impairment losses were $19&nbsp;million for other-than-temporary declines in fair value for
fixed maturity and equity securities for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>IGI Contingency</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 1997, CNA Reinsurance Company Limited (CNA Re Ltd.) entered into an arrangement with IOA
Global, Ltd. (IOA), an independent managing general agent based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to
develop and manage a book of accident and health coverages. Pursuant to this arrangement, IGI
Underwriting Agencies, Ltd. (IGI), a personal accident reinsurance managing general underwriter,
was appointed to underwrite and market the book under the supervision of IOA. Between April&nbsp;1,
1997 and December&nbsp;1, 1999, IGI underwrote a number of reinsurance arrangements with respect to
personal accident insurance worldwide (the IGI Program). Under various arrangements, CNA Re Ltd.
both assumed risks as a reinsurer and also ceded a substantial portion of those risks to other
companies, including other CNA insurance subsidiaries and ultimately to a group of reinsurers
participating in a reinsurance pool known as the Associated Accident and Health Reinsurance
Underwriters (AAHRU)&nbsp;Facility. CNA&#146;s group operations business unit participated as a pool member
in the AAHRU Facility in varying percentages between 1997 and 1999.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A portion of the premiums assumed under the IGI Program related to United States workers
compensation &#147;carve-out&#148; business. Some of these premiums were received from John Hancock Mutual
Life Insurance Company (John Hancock) under four excess of loss reinsurance treaties (the Treaties)
issued by CNA Re Ltd. While John Hancock has indicated that it is not able to accurately quantify
its potential exposure to its cedents on business which is retroceded to CNA, John Hancock has
reported $199&nbsp;million of paid and unpaid losses, under these Treaties. John Hancock is disputing
portions of its assumed obligations resulting in these reported losses, and has advised CNA that it
is, or has been, involved in multiple arbitrations with its own cedents, in which proceedings John
Hancock is seeking to avoid and/or reduce risks that would otherwise arguably be ceded to CNA
through the Treaties. John Hancock has further informed CNA that it has settled several of these
disputes, but has not provided CNA with details of the settlements. To the extent that John
Hancock is successful in reducing its liabilities in these disputes, that development may have an
impact on the recoveries it is seeking under the Treaties from CNA.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As indicated, CNA arranged substantial reinsurance protection to manage its exposures under the IGI
Program, including the United States workers compensation carve-out business ceded from John
Hancock and other reinsurers. While certain reinsurers of CNA, including participants in the AAHRU
Facility, disputed their liabilities under the reinsurance contracts with respect to the IGI
Program, those disputes have been resolved and substantial reinsurance coverage exists for those
exposures.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition, CNA has instituted arbitration proceedings against John Hancock in which CNA is
seeking rescission of the Treaties as well as access to and the right to inspect the books and
records relating to the Treaties. Based on information known at this time, CNA believes it has
strong grounds to successfully challenge its alleged exposure derived from John Hancock through the
ongoing arbitration proceedings. CNA has also undertaken legal action seeking to avoid portions of
the remaining exposure arising out of the IGI Program.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has established reserves for its estimated exposure under the IGI Program, other than that
derived from John Hancock, and an estimate for recoverables from retrocessionaires. CNA has not
established any reserve for any exposure derived from John Hancock because, as indicated, CNA
believes the contract will be rescinded. Although the results of the Company&#146;s various loss
mitigation strategies with respect to the entire IGI Program to date support the recorded reserves,
the estimate of ultimate losses is subject to considerable uncertainty due to the complexities
described above. As a result of these uncertainties, the results of operations in future periods
may be adversely affected by potentially significant reserve additions. However, the extent of
losses beyond any amounts that may be accrued are not readily determinable at this time.
Management does not believe that any such reserve additions would be material to the equity of the
Company, although results of operations may be adversely affected. The Company&#146;s position in
relation to the IGI Program was unaffected by the sale of CNA Re Ltd. in 2002.

including eight purported class actions, brought by large policyholders. The complaints differ in
some respects, but generally allege that the defendants, as part of an industry-wide conspiracy,
included improper charges in their retrospectively rated and other loss-sensitive insurance
programs. Among the claims asserted are violations of state antitrust laws, breach of contract,
fraud and unjust enrichment. In one federal court case, <U>Sandwich Chef of Texas, Inc. v.
Reliance National Indemnity Insurance Co., 202 F.R.D. 480 (S.D. Tex. 2001), rev&#146;d, 319 F.3d 205

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION<BR>

(UNAUDITED)</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note H. Claim and Claim Adjustment Expense Reserves</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s property and casualty insurance claim and claim adjustment expense reserves represent the
estimated amounts necessary to settle all outstanding claims, including claims that are incurred
but not reported (IBNR)&nbsp;as of the reporting date. The Company&#146;s reserve projections are based
primarily on detailed analysis of the facts in each case, CNA&#146;s experience with similar cases and
various historical development patterns. Consideration is given to such historical patterns as
field reserving trends and claims settlement practices, loss payments, pending levels of unpaid
claims and product mix, as well as court decisions, economic conditions and public attitudes. All
of these factors can affect the estimation of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Establishing claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, including claim and claim adjustment
expense reserves for catastrophic events that have occurred, is an estimation process. Many
factors can ultimately affect the final settlement of a claim and, therefore, the necessary
reserve. Changes in the law, results of litigation, medical costs, the cost of repair materials
and labor rates can all affect ultimate claim costs. In addition, time can be a critical part of
reserving determinations since the longer the span between the incidence of a loss and the payment
or settlement of the claim, the more variable the ultimate settlement amount can be. Accordingly,
short-tail claims, such as property damage claims, tend to be more reasonably estimable than
long-tail claims, such as general liability and professional liability claims. Adjustments to
prior year reserve estimates, if necessary, are reflected in the results of operations in the
period that the need for such adjustments is determined.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Catastrophes are an inherent risk of the property and casualty insurance business and have
contributed to material period-to-period fluctuations in the Company&#146;s results of operations and/or
equity. The level of catastrophe losses experienced in any period cannot be predicted and can be
material to the results of operations and/or equity of the Company. Catastrophe losses, net of
reinsurance, were $437&nbsp;million and $258&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and
2004 and $443&nbsp;million and $271&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004. The
catastrophe losses in 2005 related primarily to Hurricanes Katrina, Dennis, Ophelia and Rita. The
2005 loss estimate was developed after consideration of reported claims, the insured values of
properties in the affected areas, modeled losses, industry loss estimates and the Company&#146;s
reinsurance coverage. Because of the nature of the four hurricanes, the estimate involves
significant judgment due in part to the limited ability to access portions of the affected area,
legal and regulatory uncertainties, the complexity of factors contributing to the losses and the
preliminary nature of the information available. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that CNA&#146;s
ultimate cost for these catastrophes will not exceed this estimate. The catastrophe losses in 2004
related primarily to Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Commercial catastrophe losses, gross of reinsurance, were $797&nbsp;million and $280&nbsp;million for the
three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004 and $803&nbsp;million and $293&nbsp;million for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004. See Note I for further discussion of the Company&#146;s
catastrophe reinsurance program.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Claim and claim adjustment expense reserves are presented net of amounts due from insureds related
to losses under high deductible policies. The Company has an allowance for uncollectible
deductible amounts, which is presented as a component of the allowance for doubtful accounts for
insurance receivables.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries have actual and potential exposures related
to APMT claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Establishing reserves for APMT claim and claim adjustment expenses is subject to uncertainties that
are greater than those presented by other claims. Traditional actuarial methods and techniques
employed to estimate the ultimate cost of claims for more traditional property and casualty
exposures are less precise in estimating claim and claim adjustment expense reserves for APMT,
particularly in an environment of emerging or potential claims and coverage issues that arise from
industry practices and legal, judicial, and social conditions. Therefore, these traditional
actuarial methods and techniques are necessarily supplemented with additional estimating techniques
and methodologies, many of which involve significant judgments that are required of management.
Accordingly, a high degree of uncertainty remains for the Company&#146;s ultimate liability for APMT
claim and claim adjustment expenses.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION<BR>
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued<BR>
(UNAUDITED)</B>

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition to the difficulties described above, estimating the ultimate cost of both reported and
unreported APMT claims is subject to a higher degree of variability due to a number of additional
factors, including among others: the number and outcome of direct actions against the Company;
coverage issues, including whether certain costs are covered under the policies and whether policy
limits apply; allocation of liability among numerous parties, some of whom may be in bankruptcy
proceedings, and in particular the application of &#147;joint and several&#148; liability to specific
insurers on a risk; inconsistent court decisions and developing legal theories; increasingly
aggressive tactics of plaintiffs&#146; lawyers; the risks and lack of predictability inherent in major
litigation; increased filings of claims in certain states; enactment of national federal
legislation to address asbestos claims; a further increase in asbestos and environmental pollution
claims which cannot now be anticipated; increase in number of mass tort claims relating to silica
and silica-containing products, and the outcome of ongoing disputes as to coverage in relation to
these claims; a further increase of claims and claims payment that may exhaust underlying umbrella
and excess coverage at accelerated rates; and future developments pertaining to the Company&#146;s
ability to recover reinsurance for asbestos, pollution and mass tort claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has regularly performed ground up reviews of all open APMT claims to evaluate the adequacy of
the Company&#146;s APMT reserves. In performing its comprehensive ground up analysis, the Company
considers input from its professionals with direct responsibility for the claims, inside and
outside counsel with responsibility for representation of the Company, and its actuarial staff.
These professionals review, among many factors, the policyholder&#146;s present and predicted future
exposures, including such factors as claims volume, trial conditions, prior settlement history,
settlement demands and defense costs; the impact of asbestos defendant bankruptcies on the
policyholder; the policies issued by CNA, including such factors as aggregate or per occurrence
limits, whether the policy is primary, umbrella or excess, and the existence of policyholder
retentions and/or deductibles; the existence of other insurance; and reinsurance arrangements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">With respect to other court cases and how they might affect the Company&#146;s reserves and reasonably
possible losses, the following should be noted: State and federal courts issue numerous decisions
each year, which potentially impact losses and reserves in both a favorable and unfavorable manner.
Examples of favorable developments include decisions to allocate defense and indemnity payments in
a manner so as to limit carriers&#146; obligations to damages taking place during the effective dates of
their policies; decisions holding that injuries occurring after asbestos operations are completed
are subject to the completed operations aggregate limits of the policies; and decisions ruling that
carriers&#146; loss control inspections of their insured&#146;s premises do not give rise to a duty to warn
third parties to the dangers of asbestos.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Examples of unfavorable developments include decisions limiting the application of the &#147;absolute
pollution&#148; exclusion; and decisions holding carriers liable for defense and indemnity of asbestos,
pollution and mass tort claims on a joint and several basis.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s ultimate liability for its environmental pollution and mass tort claims is impacted
by several factors including ongoing disputes with policyholders over scope and meaning of coverage
terms and, in the area of environmental pollution, court decisions that continue to restrict the
scope and applicability of the absolute pollution exclusion contained in policies issued by the
Company. Due to the inherent uncertainties described above, including the inconsistency of court
decisions, the number of waste sites subject to cleanup, and in the area of environmental
pollution, the standards for cleanup and liability, the ultimate liability of CNA for environmental
pollution and mass tort claims may vary substantially from the amount currently recorded.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Due to the inherent uncertainties in estimating claim and claim adjustment expense reserves for
APMT and due to the significant uncertainties previously described related to APMT claims, the
ultimate liability for these cases, both individually and in aggregate, may exceed the recorded
reserves. Any such potential additional liability, or any range of potential additional amounts,
cannot be reasonably estimated currently, but could be material to the Company&#146;s business, results
of operations, equity, insurer financial strength and debt ratings. Due to, among other things,
the factors described above, it may be necessary for the Company to record material changes in its
APMT claim and claim adjustment expense reserves in the future, should new information become
available or other developments emerge.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries have exposure to asbestos-related claims.
Estimation of asbestos-related claim and claim adjustment expense reserves involves limitations
such as inconsistency of court decisions, specific policy provisions, allocation of liability among
insurers and insureds and additional factors such as missing policies and proof of coverage.
Furthermore, estimation of asbestos-related claims is difficult due to, among other reasons, the
proliferation of bankruptcy proceedings and attendant uncertainties, the targeting of a broader
range of businesses and entities as defendants, the uncertainty as to which other insureds may be
targeted in the future and the uncertainties inherent in predicting the number of future claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA carried approximately $1,579&nbsp;million and $1,686
million of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables, for
reported and unreported asbestos-related claims. The Company recorded $8&nbsp;million and $44&nbsp;million of
unfavorable asbestos-related net claim and claim adjustment expense reserve development for the
nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004. The unfavorable net prior year development for the
nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 was primarily related to a commutation. The Company paid
asbestos-related claims, net of reinsurance recoveries, of $115&nbsp;million and $104&nbsp;million for the
nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Some asbestos-related defendants have asserted that their insurance policies are not subject to
aggregate limits on coverage. CNA has such claims from a number of insureds. Some of these claims
involve insureds facing exhaustion of products liability aggregate limits in their policies, who
have asserted that their asbestos-related claims fall within so-called &#147;non-products&#148; liability
coverage contained within their policies rather than products liability coverage, and that the
claimed &#147;non-products&#148; coverage is not subject to any aggregate limit. It is difficult to predict
the ultimate size of any of the claims for coverage purportedly not subject to aggregate limits or
predict to what extent, if any, the attempts to assert &#147;non-products&#148; claims outside the products
liability aggregate will succeed. The Company&#146;s policies also contain other limits applicable to
these claims, and the Company has additional coverage defenses to certain claims. The Company has
attempted to manage its asbestos exposure by aggressively seeking to settle claims on acceptable
terms. There can be no assurance that any of these settlement efforts will be successful, or that
any such claims can be settled on terms acceptable to CNA. Where CNA cannot settle a claim on
acceptable terms, the Company aggressively litigates the claim. A recent court ruling by the
United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has supported certain of the Company&#146;s
positions with respect to coverage for &#147;non-products&#148; claims. However, adverse developments with
respect to such matters could have a material adverse effect on CNA&#146;s results of operations and/or
equity.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The ultimate cost of reported claims, and in particular APMT claims, is subject to a great many
uncertainties, including future developments of various kinds that CNA does not control and that
are difficult or impossible to foresee accurately. With respect to the litigation identified below
in particular, numerous factual and legal issues

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">remain unresolved. Rulings on those issues by the courts are critical to the evaluation of the
ultimate cost to the Company. The outcome of the litigation cannot be predicted with any
reliability. Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any amounts that may be accrued are not
readily determinable at this time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On February&nbsp;13, 2003, CNA announced it had resolved asbestos related coverage litigation and claims
involving A.P. Green Industries, A.P. Green Services and Bigelow &#150; Liptak Corporation. Under the
agreement, CNA is required to pay $74&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance recoveries, over a ten year
period commencing after the final approval of a bankruptcy plan of reorganization. The settlement
resolves CNA&#146;s liabilities for all pending and future asbestos claims involving A.P. Green
Industries, Bigelow &#150; Liptak Corporation and related subsidiaries, including alleged
&#147;non-products&#148; exposures. The settlement received initial bankruptcy court approval on August&nbsp;18,
2003 and CNA expects to procure confirmation of a bankruptcy plan containing an injunction to
protect CNA from any future claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA is engaged in insurance coverage litigation in New York State Court, filed in 2003, with a
defendant class of underlying plaintiffs who have asbestos bodily injury claims against the former
Robert A. Keasbey Company (Keasbey) (<U>Continental Casualty Co. v. Employers Ins. of Wausau et
al.</U>, No.&nbsp;601037/03 (N.Y. County)). Keasbey, a currently dissolved corporation, was a seller and
installer of asbestos-containing insulation products in New York and New Jersey. Thousands of
plaintiffs have filed bodily injury claims against Keasbey; however, Keasbey&#146;s involvement at a
number of work sites is a highly contested issue. Therefore, the defense disputes the percentage
of valid claims against Keasbey. CNA issued Keasbey primary policies for 1970-1987 and excess
policies for 1972-1978. CNA has paid an amount substantially equal to the policies&#146; aggregate
limits for products and completed operations claims in the confirmed CNA policies. Claimants
against Keasbey allege, among other things, that CNA owes coverage under sections of the policies
not subject to the aggregate limits, an allegation CNA vigorously contests in the lawsuit. In the
litigation, CNA and the claimants seek declaratory relief as to the interpretation of various
policy provisions. The court dismissed a claim alleging bad faith and seeking unspecified damages
on March&nbsp;21, 2004; that ruling was affirmed on March&nbsp;31, 2005 by Appellate Division, First
Department. The trial in the <U>Keasbey</U> coverage action continues. It is unclear when the
Company will have a decision from the trial court. With respect to this litigation in particular,
numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final result, the
outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include, among others:
(a)&nbsp;whether the Company has any further responsibility to compensate claimants against Keasbey
under its policies and, if so, under which policies; (b)&nbsp;whether the Company&#146;s responsibilities
extend to a particular claimant&#146;s entire claim or only to a limited percentage of the claim; (c)
whether the Company&#146;s responsibilities under its policies are limited by the occurrence limits or
other provisions of the policies; (d)&nbsp;whether certain exclusions in some of the policies apply to
exclude certain claims; (e)&nbsp;the extent to which claimants can establish exposures to asbestos
materials as to which Keasbey has any responsibility; (f)&nbsp;the legal theories which must be pursued
by such claimants to establish the liability of Keasbey and whether such theories can, in fact, be
established; (g)&nbsp;the diseases and damages alleged by such claimants; and (h)&nbsp;the extent that such
liability would be shared with other responsible parties. Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond
any amounts that may be accrued are not readily determinable at this time.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has insurance coverage disputes related to asbestos bodily injury claims against Burns &#038; Roe
Enterprises, Inc. (Burns &#038; Roe). Originally raised in litigation, now stayed, these disputes are
currently part of <U>In re: Burns &#038; Roe Enterprises, Inc.</U>, pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of New Jersey, No.&nbsp;00-41610. Burns &#038; Roe provided engineering and related
services in connection with construction projects. At the time of its bankruptcy filing, on
December&nbsp;4, 2000, Burns &#038; Roe faced approximately 11,000 claims alleging bodily injury resulting
from exposure to asbestos as a result of construction projects in which Burns &#038; Roe was involved.
CNA allegedly provided primary liability coverage to Burns &#038; Roe from 1956-1969 and 1971-1974,
along with certain project-specific policies from 1964-1970. The parties in the litigation are
seeking a declaration of the scope and extent of coverage, if any, afforded to Burns &#038; Roe for its
asbestos liabilities. The litigation has been stayed since May&nbsp;14, 2003 pending resolution of the
bankruptcy proceedings. A confirmation hearing in the bankruptcy proceeding has been scheduled for
April&nbsp;2006. With respect to the Burns &#038; Roe litigation and the pending bankruptcy proceeding,
numerous unresolved factual and legal issues will impact the ultimate exposure to the Company. With

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CIC issued certain primary and excess policies to Bendix Corporation (Bendix), now part of
Honeywell International, Inc. (Honeywell). Honeywell faces approximately 77,708 pending asbestos
bodily injury claims resulting from alleged exposure to Bendix friction products. CIC&#146;s primary
policies allegedly covered the period from at least 1939 (when Bendix began to use asbestos in its
friction products) to 1983, although the parties disagree about whether CIC&#146;s policies provided
product liability coverage before 1940 and from 1945 to 1956. CIC asserts that it owes no further
material obligations to Bendix under any primary policy. Honeywell alleges that two primary
policies issued by CIC covering 1969-1975 contain occurrence limits but not product liability
aggregate limits for asbestos bodily injury claims. CIC has asserted, among other things, even if
Honeywell&#146;s allegation is correct, which CNA denies, its liability is limited to a single
occurrence limit per policy or per year, and in the alternative, a proper allocation of losses
would substantially limit its exposure under the 1969-1975 policies to asbestos claims. These and
other issues are being litigated in <U>Continental Insurance Co., et al. v. Honeywell
International Inc.</U>, No.&nbsp;MRS-L-1523-00 (Morris County, New Jersey) which was filed on May&nbsp;15,
2000. In the litigation, the parties are seeking declaratory relief of the scope and extent of
coverage, if any, afforded to Bendix under the policies issued by the Company. With respect to this
litigation, numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final
result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include, among
others: (a)&nbsp;whether certain of the primary policies issued by the Company contain aggregate limits
of liability; (b)&nbsp;whether the Company&#146;s responsibilities under its policies extend to a particular
claimants&#146; entire claim or only to a limited percentage of the claim; (c)&nbsp;whether the Company&#146;s
responsibilities under its policies are limited by the occurrence limits or other provisions of the
policies; (d)&nbsp;whether some of the claims against Bendix arise out of events which took place after
expiration of the Company&#146;s policies; (e)&nbsp;the extent to which claimants can establish exposures to
asbestos materials as to which Bendix has any responsibility; (f)&nbsp;the legal theories which must be
pursued by such claimants to establish the liability of Bendix and whether such theories can, in
fact, be established; (g)&nbsp;the diseases and damages claimed by such claimants; (h)&nbsp;the extent that
any liability of Bendix would be shared with other responsible parties; and (i)&nbsp;whether Bendix is
responsible for reimbursement of funds advanced by the Company for defense and indemnity in the
past. Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any amounts that may be accrued are not readily
determinable at this time.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Suits have also been initiated directly against two CNA companies and other insurers in four
jurisdictions: Ohio, Texas, West Virginia and Montana. In the approximately 75 Ohio actions,
plaintiffs allege the defendants negligently performed duties undertaken to protect workers and the
public from the effects of asbestos, spoliated evidence and conspired and acted in concert to harm
the plaintiffs. (E.g. <U>Varner v. Ford Motor Co., </U>(Ohio Ct. Common Pl., filed June&nbsp;12,
2003); <U>Peplowski v. ACE American Ins. Co., </U>(N.D. Ohio, filed April&nbsp;1, 2004)) and <U>Cross
v. Garlock, Inc.</U> (Ohio Ct. Common Pl., filed September&nbsp;1, 2004)). The Cuyahoga County court
granted insurers, including CNA, dismissals against an initial group of plaintiffs, ruling that
insurers had no duty to warn plaintiffs about the dangers of asbestos and that there was no basis
for spoliation, conspiracy and concert of action claims. That ruling was recently affirmed on
appeal. <U>Budd v. Am. Std., Inc., No.&nbsp;84829</U> (Ohio Ct. App. May&nbsp;26, 2005). The Cuyahoga
County court has continued to dismiss substantially similar types of complaints and plaintiffs have
either failed to appeal the dismissals or have voluntarily dismissed their appeals. Nonetheless,
plaintiffs continue to file additional similar suits. With respect to this litigation in
particular, numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final
result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include: (a)
the speculative nature and unclear scope of any alleged duties owed to individuals exposed to
asbestos and the resulting uncertainty as to the potential pool of potential claimants; (b)&nbsp;the

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Similar lawsuits were filed in Texas beginning in 2002, against two CNA companies and numerous
other insurers and non-insurer corporate defendants asserting liability for failing to warn of the
dangers of asbestos (E.g. <U>Boson v. Union Carbide Corp.,</U> (Nueces County, Texas)). During
2003, many of the Texas suits were dismissed as time-barred by the applicable Statute of
Limitations. In other suits, the carriers argued that they did not owe any duty to the plaintiffs
or the general public to advise the world generally or the plaintiffs particularly of the effects
of asbestos and that Texas statutes precluded liability for such claims, and the Texas courts
dismissed these suits. Certain of the Texas courts&#146; rulings were appealed, but plaintiffs later
dismissed their appeals. Recently, a different Texas court denied similar motions seeking
dismissal at the pleading stage, allowing limited discovery to proceed. With respect to this
litigation in particular, numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical
to the final result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CCC was named in <U>Adams v. Aetna, Inc., et al.</U> (Circuit Court of Kanawha County, West
Virginia, filed June&nbsp;28, 2002), a purported class action against CCC and other insurers, alleging
that the defendants violated West Virginia&#146;s Unfair Trade Practices Act (&#147;UTPA&#148;) in handling and
resolving asbestos claims against five specifically named asbestos defendants. The Adams
litigation had been stayed pending a planned motion by plaintiffs to file an amended complaint that
reflected two June&nbsp;2004 decisions of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals. In June&nbsp;2005, the
court presiding over Adams and three similar putative class actions against other insurers, on its
own motion, directed plaintiffs to file any amended complaints by June&nbsp;13, 2005 and directed the
parties to agree upon a case management order that would result in trial being commenced by July
2006. Plaintiffs&#146; Amended Complaint greatly expands the scope of the action against the insurers,
including CCC. Under the Amended Complaint, the defendant insurers, including CCC have now been
sued for alleged violations of the UTPA in connection with handling and resolving asbestos personal
injury and wrongful death claims in West Virginia courts against all their insureds if those claims
were resolved before June&nbsp;30, 2001. CCC, along with other insurer defendants removed the Adams
case to Federal court, <U>Adams v. Ins. Co. of North America (INA)&nbsp;et al.</U> (S.D. W. Va. No.
2:05-CV-0527). A motion by plaintiffs to remand the case to state courts is pending. Numerous
factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final result in Adams, the
outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These issues include: (a)&nbsp;the legal
sufficiency of the novel statutory claims pled by the claimants; (b)&nbsp;the applicability of
claimants&#146; legal theories to insurers who issued excess policies and/or neither defended nor
controlled the defense of certain policyholders; (c)&nbsp;the possibility that certain of the claims are
barred by various Statutes of Limitation; (d)&nbsp;the fact that the imposition of duties would
interfere with the attorney-client privilege and the contractual rights and responsibilities of the

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION<BR>
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued<BR>
(UNAUDITED)</B>

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On March&nbsp;22, 2002, a direct action was filed in Montana (<U>Pennock, et al. v. Maryland Casualty,
et al.</U> First Judicial District Court of Lewis &#038; Clark County, Montana) by eight individual
plaintiffs (all employees of W.R. Grace &#038; Co. (W.R. Grace)) and their spouses against CNA, Maryland
Casualty and the State of Montana. This action alleges that the carriers failed to warn of or
otherwise protect W.R. Grace employees from the dangers of asbestos at a W.R. Grace vermiculite
mining facility in Libby, Montana. The Montana direct action is currently stayed because of W.R.
Grace&#146;s pending bankruptcy. With respect to such claims, numerous factual and legal issues remain
to be resolved that are critical to the final result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with
any reliability. These factors include: (a)&nbsp;the unclear nature and scope of any alleged duties
owed to people exposed to asbestos and the resulting uncertainty as to the potential pool of
potential claimants; (b)&nbsp;the potential application of Statutes of Limitation to many of the
claims which may be made depending on the nature and scope of the alleged duties; (c)&nbsp;the unclear
nature of the required nexus between the acts of the defendants and the right of any particular
claimant to recovery; (d)&nbsp;the diseases and damages claimed by such claimants; (e)&nbsp;and the extent
that such liability would be shared with other potentially responsible parties; and (f)&nbsp;the impact
of bankruptcy proceedings on claims resolution. Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any
amounts that may be accrued are not readily determinable at this time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA is vigorously defending these and other cases and believes that it has meritorious defenses to
the claims asserted. However, there are numerous factual and legal issues to be resolved in
connection with these claims, and it is extremely difficult to predict the outcome or ultimate
financial exposure represented by these matters. Adverse developments with respect to any of these
matters could have a material adverse effect on CNA&#146;s business, insurer financial strength and debt
ratings, results of operations and/or equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a result of the uncertainties and complexities involved, reserves for asbestos claims cannot be
estimated with traditional actuarial techniques that rely on historical accident year loss
development factors. In establishing asbestos reserves, CNA evaluates the exposure presented by
each insured. As part of this evaluation, CNA considers the available insurance coverage; limits
and deductibles; the potential role of other insurance, particularly underlying coverage below any
CNA excess liability policies; and applicable coverage defenses, including asbestos exclusions.
Estimation of asbestos-related claim and claim adjustment expense reserves involves a high degree
of judgment on the part of management and consideration of many complex factors, including:
inconsistency of court decisions, jury attitudes and future court decisions; specific policy
provisions; allocation of liability among insurers and insureds; missing policies and proof of
coverage; the proliferation of bankruptcy proceedings and attendant uncertainties; novel theories
asserted by policyholders and their counsel; the targeting of a broader range of businesses and
entities as defendants; the uncertainty as to which other insureds may be targeted in the future
and the uncertainties inherent in predicting the number of future claims; volatility in claim
numbers and settlement demands; increases in the number of non-impaired claimants and the extent to
which they can be precluded from making claims; the efforts by insureds to obtain coverage not
subject to aggregate limits; long latency period between asbestos exposure and disease
manifestation and the resulting potential for involvement of multiple policy periods for individual
claims; medical inflation trends; the mix of asbestos-related diseases presented and the ability to
recover reinsurance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is also monitoring possible legislative reforms on the state and national level,
including possible federal legislation to create a national privately financed trust financed by
contributions from insurers such as CNA, industrial companies and others, which if established,
could replace litigation of asbestos claims with payments to claimants from the trust. It is
uncertain at the present time whether such legislation will be enacted or, if it is, its impact on
the Company.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Environmental Pollution and Mass Tort</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Environmental pollution cleanup is the subject of both federal and state regulation. By some
estimates, there are thousands of potential waste sites subject to cleanup. The insurance industry
is involved in extensive litigation regarding coverage issues. Judicial interpretations in many
cases have expanded the scope of coverage and liability beyond the original intent of the policies.
The Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (Superfund) and
comparable state statutes (mini-Superfunds) govern the cleanup and restoration of toxic waste sites
and formalize the concept of legal liability for cleanup and restoration by &#147;Potentially
Responsible Parties&#148; (PRPs). Superfund and the mini-Superfunds establish mechanisms to pay for
cleanup of waste sites if PRPs

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">fail to do so and assign liability to PRPs. The extent of liability to be allocated to a PRP is
dependent upon a variety of factors. Further, the number of waste sites subject to cleanup is
unknown. To date, approximately 1,500 cleanup sites have been identified by the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA)&nbsp;and included on its National Priorities List (NPL). State authorities have
designated many cleanup sites as well.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Many policyholders have made claims against various CNA insurance subsidiaries for defense costs
and indemnification in connection with environmental pollution matters. The vast majority of these
claims relate to accident years 1989 and prior, which coincides with CNA&#146;s adoption of the
Simplified Commercial General Liability coverage form, which includes what is referred to in the
industry as absolute pollution exclusion. CNA and the insurance industry are disputing coverage
for many such claims. Key coverage issues include whether cleanup costs are considered damages
under the policies, trigger of coverage, allocation of liability among triggered policies,
applicability of pollution exclusions and owned property exclusions, the potential for joint and
several liability and the definition of an occurrence. To date, courts have been inconsistent in
their rulings on these issues.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA carried approximately $402&nbsp;million and $497
million of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables, for
reported and unreported environmental pollution and mass tort claims. There was $3&nbsp;million of
unfavorable environmental pollution and mass tort net claim and claim adjustment expense reserve
development recorded for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005. No development was recorded for
the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004. The Company recorded $15&nbsp;million and $10&nbsp;million of
current accident year losses related to mass tort for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and
2004. The Company paid environmental pollution-related claims and mass tort-related claims, net of
reinsurance recoveries, of $113&nbsp;million and $79&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2005 and 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has made resolution of large environmental pollution exposures a management priority. The
Company has resolved a number of its large environmental accounts by negotiating settlement
agreements. In its settlements, CNA sought to resolve those exposures and obtain the broadest
release language to avoid future claims from the same policyholders seeking coverage for sites or
claims that had not emerged at the time CNA settled with its policyholder. While the terms of each
settlement agreement vary, CNA sought to obtain broad environmental releases that include known and
unknown sites, claims and policies. The broad scope of the release provisions contained in those
settlement agreements should, in many cases, prevent future exposure from settled policyholders.
It remains uncertain, however, whether a court interpreting the language of the settlement
agreements will adhere to the intent of the parties and uphold the broad scope of language of the
agreements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2003, CNA observed a marked increase in silica claims frequency in Mississippi, where plaintiff
attorneys appear to have filed claims to avoid the effect of tort reform. In 2004, silica claims
frequency in Mississippi has moderated notably due to implementation of tort reform measures and
favorable court decisions. To date, the most significant silica exposures identified included a
relatively small number of accounts with significant numbers of new claims reported in 2003 and
that continued at a far lesser rate in 2004 and 2005. Establishing claim and claim adjustment
expense reserves for silica claims is subject to uncertainties because of disputes concerning
medical causation with respect to certain diseases, including lung cancer, geographical
concentration of the lawsuits asserting the claims, and the large rise in the total number of
claims without underlying epidemiological developments suggesting an increase in disease rates or
plaintiffs. Moreover, judicial interpretations regarding application of various tort defenses,
including application of various theories of joint and several liabilities, impede the Company&#146;s
ability to estimate its ultimate liability for such claims.

September&nbsp;30, 2005. This amount consisted of $344&nbsp;million of unfavorable claim and allocated claim
adjustment expense reserve development and $128&nbsp;million of favorable premium development.
Unfavorable net prior year development of $111&nbsp;million was recorded for the nine months ended

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA assumes and cedes reinsurance with other insurers, reinsurers and members of various
reinsurance pools and associations. CNA utilizes reinsurance arrangements to limit its maximum
loss, provide greater diversification of risk, minimize exposures on larger risks and to exit
certain lines of business. The ceding of insurance does not discharge the primary liability of the
Company. Therefore, an exposure exists with respect to property and casualty and life reinsurance
ceded to the extent that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations or disputes the
liabilities assumed under reinsurance agreements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Property and casualty reinsurance coverages are tailored to the specific risk characteristics of
each product line and CNA&#146;s retained amount varies by type of coverage. Treaty reinsurance is
purchased to protect specific lines of business such as property, workers compensation and
professional liability. Corporate catastrophe reinsurance is also purchased for property and
workers compensation exposure. Most treaty reinsurance is purchased on an excess of loss basis. CNA
also utilizes facultative reinsurance in certain lines.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has established an allowance for uncollectible reinsurance receivables. The
allowance for uncollectible reinsurance receivables was $552&nbsp;million and $546&nbsp;million at September
30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004. The expenses incurred related to uncollectible reinsurance
receivables are presented as a component of &#147;Insurance claims and policyholders&#146; benefits&#148; in the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company attempts to mitigate its credit risk related to reinsurance by entering into
reinsurance arrangements only with reinsurers that have credit ratings above certain levels and by
obtaining substantial amounts of collateral. The primary methods of obtaining collateral are
through reinsurance trusts, letters of credit and funds withheld balances.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Life premiums are primarily from long duration contracts; property and casualty premiums and
accident and health premiums are primarily from short duration contracts.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Reinsurance accounting allows for contractual cash flows to be reflected as premiums and losses, as
compared to deposit accounting, which requires cash flows to be reflected as assets and
liabilities. To qualify for reinsurance accounting, reinsurance agreements must include risk
transfer. To meet risk transfer requirements, a reinsurance contract must include both insurance
risk, consisting of underwriting and timing risk, and a reasonable possibility of a significant
loss for the assuming entity. Reinsurance contracts that include both significant risk sharing
provisions, such as adjustments to premiums or loss coverage based on loss experience, and
relatively low policy limits as evidenced by a high proportion of maximum premium assessments to
loss limits, may require considerable judgment to determine whether or not risk transfer
requirements are met. For such contracts, often referred to as finite products, the Company
assesses risk transfer for each contract generally by developing quantitative analyses at contract
inception which measure the present value of reinsurer losses as compared to the present value of
the related premium.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Reinsurance contracts that do not effectively transfer the underlying economic risk of loss on
policies written by the Company are recorded using the deposit method of accounting, which requires
that premium paid or received by the ceding company or assuming company be accounted for as a
deposit asset or liability. The Company primarily

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The anticipated reinsurance recoveries related to Hurricane Katrina assume significant
utilization of the Company&#146;s Corporate Property Catastrophe, Corporate Property Per Risk and Marine
reinsurance treaties. The Corporate Property Catastrophe treaty provides 90% coverage for the
accumulation of losses between $200&nbsp;million and $500&nbsp;million arising out of a single catastrophe
occurrence. Coverage under this treaty was fully utilized for Hurricane Katrina. After payment of
a reinstatement premium, the Company has coverage for one additional occurrence under this treaty.
The Corporate Property Per Risk treaty limits the Company&#146;s loss on an individual insured property
to $10&nbsp;million, subject to certain limitations and aggregate limits contained in the treaty. The
Company&#146;s Marine treaty provides $75&nbsp;million of protection above a $10&nbsp;million retention on the
accumulation of losses arising out of a single catastrophe occurrence. After payment of
reinstatement premiums, the Company has almost full ongoing coverage under these treaties.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition to these reinsurance treaties, the Company&#146;s exposure to Hurricane Rita is further
mitigated by an Aggregate Property Catastrophe treaty. This treaty was purchased to obtain
reinsurance protection against the aggregation of losses from multiple catastrophic events. The
Aggregate Property Catastrophe treaty covers 95% of $150&nbsp;million of losses above a retention of
$100&nbsp;million from named earthquake or wind storm catastrophes which exceed $25&nbsp;million in 2005.
For any single event, the maximum that can be applied to the Company&#146;s retention or recovered under
the treaty is $80&nbsp;million. The Company has approximately $45&nbsp;million of available recoveries from
this treaty in the event its estimate of gross losses from Hurricane Rita increases in the future.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s overall reinsurance program includes certain finite property and casualty
contracts, such as the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties discussed in more detail below,
that are entered into and accounted for on a &#147;funds withheld&#148; basis. Under the funds withheld
basis, the Company records the cash remitted to the reinsurer for the reinsurer&#146;s margin, or cost
of the reinsurance contract, as ceded premiums. The remainder of the premiums ceded under the
reinsurance contract not remitted in cash are recorded as funds withheld liabilities. The Company
is required to increase the funds withheld balance at stated interest crediting rates applied to
the funds withheld balance or as otherwise specified under the terms of the contract. The funds
withheld liability is reduced by any cumulative claim payments made by the Company in excess of the
Company&#146;s retention under the reinsurance contract. If the funds withheld liability is exhausted,
interest crediting will cease and additional claim payments are recoverable from the reinsurer.
The funds withheld liability is recorded in Reinsurance Balances Payable in the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

$24&nbsp;million of pretax expense related to Standard Lines which resulted from an unfavorable
arbitration ruling on two reinsurance treaties impacting ceded earned premiums, ceded claim and
claim adjustment expenses, ceding commissions and interest charges. This unfavorable outcome was
partially offset by a release of previously established reinsurance bad debt reserves resulting in
a net impact from the arbitration ruling of $10&nbsp;million pretax expense for the nine months ended

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest cost on reinsurance contracts accounted for on a funds withheld basis is incurred
during all periods in which a funds withheld liability exists, and is included in net investment
income. The amount subject to interest crediting rates on such contracts was $2,225&nbsp;million and
$2,564&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004. Certain funds withheld reinsurance
contracts, including the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties, require interest on additional
premiums arising from ceded losses as if those premiums were payable at the inception of the
contract.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The amount subject to interest crediting on these funds withheld contracts will vary over time
based on a number of factors, including the timing of loss payments and ultimate gross losses
incurred. The Company expects that it will continue to incur significant interest costs on these
contracts for several years.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Corporate Aggregate Reinsurance Treaties</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has an aggregate reinsurance treaty related to the 1999 through 2001 accident
years that covers substantially all of the Company&#146;s property and casualty lines of business (the
Aggregate Cover). The Aggregate Cover provides for two sections of coverage. These coverages
attach at defined loss ratios for each accident year. Coverage under the first section of the
Aggregate Cover, which is available for all accident years covered by the treaty, has a $500
million limit per accident year of ceded losses and an aggregate limit of $1&nbsp;billion of ceded
losses for the three accident years. The ceded premiums associated with the first section are a
percentage of ceded losses and for each $500&nbsp;million of limit the ceded premium is $230&nbsp;million.
The second section of the Aggregate Cover, which only relates to accident year 2001, provides
additional coverage of up to $510&nbsp;million of ceded losses for a maximum ceded premium of $310
million. Under the Aggregate Cover, interest charges on the funds withheld liability accrue at 8%
per annum. The aggregate loss ratio for the three-year period has exceeded certain thresholds
which required additional premiums to be paid and an increase in the rate at which interest charges
are accrued. This rate will increase to 8.25% per annum commencing in 2006. Also, if an
additional aggregate loss ratio threshold is exceeded, additional premiums of 10% of amounts in
excess of the aggregate loss ratio threshold are to be paid retroactively with interest. The
aggregate limits under both sections of the Aggregate Cover have been fully utilized.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2001, the Company entered into a one-year aggregate reinsurance treaty related to the 2001
accident year covering substantially all property and casualty lines of business in the Continental
Casualty Company pool (the CCC Cover). The loss protection provided by the CCC Cover has an
aggregate limit of approximately $761&nbsp;million of ceded losses. The ceded premiums are a percentage
of ceded losses. The ceded premium related to full utilization of the $761&nbsp;million of limit is
$456&nbsp;million. The CCC Cover provides continuous coverage in excess of the second section of the
Aggregate Cover discussed above. Under the CCC Cover, interest charges on the funds withheld are
accrued at 8% per annum. The interest rate increases to 10% per annum if the aggregate loss ratio
exceeds certain thresholds. The aggregate loss ratio exceeded that threshold in the fourth quarter
of 2004 which required retroactive interest charges on funds withheld. The CCC Cover was fully
utilized in 2003.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At the Company&#146;s discretion, the contract can be commuted annually on the anniversary date of the
contract. The CCC Cover requires mandatory commutation on December&nbsp;31, 2010, if the agreement has
not been commuted on or

ceded losses at the time of commutation are less than or equal to the funds withheld account

withheld account balance, the reinsurer will release the existing balance of the funds withheld

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On July&nbsp;12, 2005, CNA received arbitration notices from several insurance affiliates of Hannover
Reinsurance Group (Hannover) related to the Aggregate Cover and two additional finite reinsurance
treaties written by Hannover. Among the contract interpretation issues in dispute are the
allocation of losses to accident year under the first section of the Aggregate Cover, the timing of
deductions from the funds withheld account for all of the treaties, the timing of deductions from a
reserve account for one of the treaties, and coverage for certain self-insured obligations under
one of the treaties. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interpretation of the contracts.
If Hannover&#146;s position on all issues were to be sustained, the Company estimates that it would
incur additional ceded premium and interest charges of $50&nbsp;million to $70&nbsp;million after-tax.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In July of 2005, CNA Surety, a 63% owned and consolidated subsidiary of CNA, refinanced the
$30&nbsp;million of outstanding borrowings under its $50&nbsp;million credit agreement with a new credit
facility (the &#147;2005 Credit Facility&#148;). The 2005 Credit Facility provides a $50&nbsp;million revolving
credit facility that matures on June&nbsp;30, 2008. The terms of the borrowings under the 2005 Credit
Facility may be fixed, at CNA Surety&#146;s option, for a period of one, two, three, or six months. The
interest rate is based on, among other rates, LIBOR plus the applicable margin.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The margin, including a facility fee and utilization fee, can vary based on CNA Surety&#146;s leverage
ratio (debt to total capitalization) from 1.15% to 1.45%. The margin was 1.30% at September&nbsp;30,
2005. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, the weighted average interest rate on the 2005 Credit Facility was
4.98% on the $30&nbsp;million of outstanding borrowings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The 2005 Credit Facility contains, among other conditions, limitations on CNA Surety with respect
to the incurrence of additional indebtedness and maintenance of a rating of at least &#147;A-&#148; by A.M.
Best Co. for each of CNA Surety&#146;s insurance subsidiaries. The 2005 Credit Facility also requires
the maintenance of certain financial ratios as follows: a) maximum funded debt to total
capitalization ratio of 25%, b) minimum net worth of $375&nbsp;million and c) minimum fixed charge
coverage ratio of 2.5 times. CNA Surety is in compliance with all covenants as of September&nbsp;30,
2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company retired its $493&nbsp;million 6.5% senior notes on April&nbsp;15, 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In May of 2004, CNA Surety issued privately through a wholly-owned trust, $30&nbsp;million of preferred
securities through two pooled transactions. These securities bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus
337.5 basis points with a thirty-year term and are redeemable after five years. The securities
were issued by CNA Surety Capital Trust I (Issuer Trust). The sole asset of the Issuer Trust
consists of a $31&nbsp;million junior subordinated debenture issued by CNA Surety to the Issuer Trust.
The subordinated debenture bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 337.5 basis points and matures in
April of 2034. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, the interest rate on the junior subordinated debenture
was 7.17%.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNAF and certain subsidiaries sponsor noncontributory pension plans typically covering
full-time employees age 21 or over who have completed at least one year of service. Effective
January&nbsp;1, 2000, the CNA Retirement Plan was closed to new participants; instead, retirement
benefits are provided to these employees under the Company&#146;s savings plans. While the terms of the
pension plans vary, benefits are generally based on years of credited service and the employee&#146;s
highest 60 consecutive months of compensation. CNA uses December&nbsp;31 as the measurement date for
the majority of its plans.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s funding policy is to make contributions in accordance with applicable governmental regulatory
requirements. The assets of the plans are invested primarily in U.S. government and
mortgage-backed securities with the balance in short-term investments, equity securities and
limited partnerships.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA provides certain healthcare and life insurance benefits to eligible retired employees, their
covered dependents and their beneficiaries. The funding for these plans is generally to pay
covered expenses as they are incurred.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The components of net periodic benefit costs are presented in the following table.

and has committed to additional future purchases and sales. The purchase and sale of these

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company holds an investment in a real estate joint venture. In the normal course of business,
CNA, on a joint and several basis with other unrelated insurance company shareholders, has
committed to continue funding the operating deficits of this joint venture. Additionally, CNA and
the other unrelated shareholders, on a joint and several basis, have guaranteed an operating lease
for an office building, which expires in 2016.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The guarantee of the operating lease is a parallel guarantee to the commitment to fund operating
deficits; consequently, the separate guarantee to the lessor is not expected to be triggered as
long as the joint venture continues to be funded by its shareholders and continues to make its
annual lease payments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the event that the other parties to the joint venture are unable to meet their commitments in
funding the operations of this joint venture, the Company would be required to assume the
obligation for the entire office building operating lease. The maximum potential future lease
payments at September&nbsp;30, 2005 that the Company could be required to pay under this guarantee are
approximately $253&nbsp;million. If CNA were required to assume the entire lease obligation, the
Company would have the right to pursue reimbursement from the other shareholders and would have the
right to all sublease revenues.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has provided guarantees of the indebtedness of certain of its independent insurance producers.
These guarantees expire in 2008. The Company would be required to remit prompt and complete
payment when due, should the primary obligor default. In the event of default on the part of the
primary obligor, the Company has a right to any and all shares of common stock of the primary
obligor. The maximum potential amount of future payments that CNA could be required to pay under
these guarantees is approximately $6&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the course of selling business entities and assets to third parties, the Company has agreed to
indemnify purchasers for losses arising out of breaches of representation and warranties with
respect to the business entities or assets being sold, including, in certain cases, losses arising
from undisclosed liabilities or certain named litigation. Such indemnification provisions
generally survive for periods ranging from nine months following the applicable closing date to the
expiration of the relevant statutes of limitation. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, the aggregate amount
of quantifiable indemnification agreements in effect for sales of business entities, assets and
third party loans was $940&nbsp;million.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition, the Company has agreed to provide indemnification to third party purchasers for
certain losses associated with sold business entities or assets that are not limited by a
contractual monetary amount. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, the Company had outstanding unlimited
indemnifications in connection with the sales of certain of its business entities or assets for tax
liabilities arising prior to a purchaser&#146;s ownership of an entity or asset, defects in title at the
time of sale, employee claims arising prior to closing and in some cases losses arising from
certain litigation and undisclosed liabilities. These indemnification agreements survive until the
applicable statutes of limitation expire, or until the agreed upon contract terms expire. The
Company recorded approximately $21&nbsp;million of other liabilities related to these indemnification
agreements as of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In connection with the issuance of preferred securities by CNA Surety Capital Trust I, CNA Surety
issued a guarantee of $75&nbsp;million to guarantee the payment by CNA Surety Capital Trust I of annual
dividends of $1.5&nbsp;million over 30&nbsp;years and redemption of $30&nbsp;million of preferred securities. See
Note J for further description of debentures issued by CNA Surety, which are the sole assets of CNA

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION<BR>
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued<BR>
(UNAUDITED)</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note N. Business Segments</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA manages its property and casualty operations in two operating segments which represent CNA&#146;s
core operations: Standard Lines and Specialty Lines. The non-core operations are managed in Life
and Group Non-Core and Corporate and Other Non-Core segments. These segments reflect the way CNA
manages its operations and makes business decisions.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company manages most of its assets on a legal entity basis, while segment operations are
conducted across legal entities. As such, only reinsurance and insurance receivables, insurance
reserves and deferred acquisition costs are readily identifiable for each individual segment.
Distinct investment portfolios are not maintained for each segment; accordingly, allocation of
assets to each segment is not performed. Therefore, net investment income and realized investment
gains or losses are allocated primarily based on each segment&#146;s net carried insurance reserves, as
adjusted.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Income taxes have been allocated on the basis of the taxable income of the segments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the following tables, certain financial measures are presented to provide information used by
management to monitor the Company&#146;s operating performance. Management utilizes these financial
measures to monitor the Company&#146;s insurance operations and investment portfolio. Net operating
income, which is derived from certain income statement amounts, is used by management to monitor
performance of the Company&#146;s insurance operations. The Company&#146;s investment portfolio is monitored
through analysis of various quantitative and qualitative factors and certain decisions related to
the sale or impairment of investments that produce realized gains and losses. Net realized
investment gains and losses are comprised of after-tax realized investment gains and losses net of
participating policyholders&#146; and minority interests.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net operating income is calculated by excluding from net income the after-tax effects of 1) net
realized investment gains or losses, 2) gains or losses from discontinued operations and 3)
cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles. In the calculation of net operating
income, management excludes after-tax net realized investment gains or losses because net realized
investment gains or losses related to the Company&#146;s investment portfolio are largely discretionary,
except for losses related to other-than-temporary impairments, are generally driven by economic
factors that are not necessarily consistent with key drivers of underwriting performance, and are
therefore not an indication of trends in insurance operations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s investment portfolio is monitored by management through analyses of various factors
including unrealized gains and losses on securities, portfolio duration and exposure to interest
rate, market and credit risk. Based on such analyses, the Company may impair an investment
security in accordance with its policy, or sell a security. Such activities will produce realized
gains and losses.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On April&nbsp;30, 2004, the Company completed the sale of its individual life insurance business to
Swiss Re. The business sold included term, universal and permanent life insurance policies and
individual annuity products. CNA&#146;s individual long term care and structured settlement businesses
were excluded from the sale. Swiss Re acquired VFL, a wholly owned subsidiary of CAC, and CNA&#146;s
Nashville, Tennessee insurance servicing and administration building as part of the sale. In
connection with the sale, CNA entered into a reinsurance agreement in which CAC ceded its
individual life insurance business to Swiss Re on a 100% indemnity reinsurance basis. As a result
of this reinsurance agreement, approximately $1&nbsp;billion of future policy benefit reserves were
ceded to Swiss Re. CNA received consideration of approximately $700&nbsp;million and recorded a
realized investment loss of $622&nbsp;million pretax ($389&nbsp;million after-tax) during the six months
ended June&nbsp;30, 2004.

travel and related expenses and expenses of investment facilities and services provided to CNA.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The CNA Tax Group is included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of Loews and its
eligible subsidiaries. For the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 CNA paid Loews $272&nbsp;million,
compared to receiving $530&nbsp;million from Loews for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004, related
to Federal income taxes.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA previously sponsored a stock ownership plan whereby the Company financed the purchase of
Company common stock by certain officers, including executive officers. Interest charged on the
principal amount of these outstanding stock purchase loans is generally equivalent to the long term
applicable federal rate, compounded semi-annually, in effect on the disbursement date of the loan.
Loans made pursuant to the plan are generally full recourse with a ten-year term maturing between
October of 2008 and May of 2010; and are secured by the stock purchased. The carrying value of the
loans as of September&nbsp;30, 2005 exceeds the fair value of the related common stock collateral by $18
million.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Loans to National Contractor</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA Surety has provided significant surety bond protection for a large national contractor
that undertakes projects for the construction of government and private facilities, a substantial
portion of which have been reinsured by CCC. In order to help this contractor meet its liquidity
needs and complete projects which had been bonded by CNA Surety, commencing in 2003 CNAF provided
loans to the contractor through a credit facility, up to an amended aggregate maximum of $126
million. The credit facility expires in March&nbsp;2009 and the current interest rate is 5% per annum.
As of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, there was $126&nbsp;million and $95&nbsp;million of loans
outstanding under the credit facility, and $6&nbsp;million and $4&nbsp;million of deferred or accrued and
unpaid interest. Loews, through a participation agreement with CNAF, has funded and owns a
participation of $40&nbsp;million and $29&nbsp;million of the outstanding advances as of September&nbsp;30, 2005
and December&nbsp;31, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Loans under the credit facility are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the
contractor and certain of its affiliates. In connection with the credit facility, CNAF has also
guaranteed or provided collateral for letters of credit which are charged against the maximum
available line and, if drawn upon, would be treated as loans under the credit facility. As of
September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, these guarantees and collateral obligations aggregated
$13&nbsp;million respectively.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The contractor implemented a restructuring plan intended to reduce costs and improve cash flow,
resulting in the contractor substantially reducing the scope of its original business and
concentrating on those segments determined to be potentially profitable. As a consequence,
operating cash flow, and in turn the capacity to service debt, have been reduced below previous
levels. In light of these developments, CNA recorded a pretax impairment charge of $56&nbsp;million in
the fourth quarter of 2004, net of the participation by Loews, with respect to amounts loaned under
the facility, and an additional pretax impairment charge of $13&nbsp;million during the first quarter of
2005. Representatives from the Company and CNA Surety met with senior management of the national
contractor in June&nbsp;2005 to review their actual cash flow through that date, as well as discuss
expected future cash flow. Pursuant to those discussions and ongoing monitoring of the status of
the contractor&#146;s restructuring plan, deterioration in operations and cash flow was observed. This
deterioration was concentrated in an operating division of the contractor that had previously been
placed into run off. As a result of these developments, the Company made a decision not to provide
additional liquidity to the contractor. Accordingly, during the second quarter of 2005 the Company
took a further pretax impairment charge of $21&nbsp;million. Further, CNA Surety established $40
million of estimated initial surety loss reserves in the second quarter of 2005 in anticipation of
future loss payments related to the national contractor. During the third quarter of 2005, CNA
Surety paid $16&nbsp;million in loss payments to the national contractor to settle outstanding bonded
obligations. In the third quarter, CNA Surety began an evaluation of the contractor&#146;s current
restructuring efforts. Possible changes to the restructuring strategy could result in higher

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">loss estimates and trigger additional reserve actions. CNA Surety expects to complete this
reevaluation in the fourth quarter.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">If any such reserve additions were taken, CNA Surety would have exposure for the first $20&nbsp;million
and CCC would have all further surety bond exposure through the reinsurance arrangements discussed
below. CNA Surety has advised that it intends to continue to provide surety bonds on behalf of the
contractor while it reevaluates the contractor&#146;s restructuring efforts, subject to the contractor&#146;s
initial and ongoing compliance with CNA Surety&#146;s underwriting standards and ongoing management of
CNA Surety&#146;s exposure in relation to the contractor. All surety bonds written for the national
contractor are issued by CCC and its affiliates, other than CNA Surety, and are subject to
underlying reinsurance treaties pursuant to which all bonds written on behalf of CNA Surety are
100% reinsured to one of CNA Surety&#146;s insurance subsidiaries.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the second quarter of 2005, CCC and CNA Surety executed amendments to existing treaties that
provide reinsurance protection to CNA Surety for losses associated with the contractor. Coverage
for all such losses in excess of an aggregate $60&nbsp;million is now provided under one treaty. This
treaty provides coverage for the life of bonds either in force or written during the term of the
treaty, which runs from January&nbsp;1, 2005 to December&nbsp;31, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CCC and CNA Surety continue to engage in periodic discussions with insurance regulatory authorities
regarding the level of bonds provided for this principal and will continue to apprise those
authorities of the status of their ongoing exposure to this account.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Indemnification and subrogation rights, including rights to contract proceeds on construction
projects in the event of default, exist that reduce CNA Surety&#146;s and ultimately the Company&#146;s
exposure to loss. While the Company believes that the contractor&#146;s continuing restructuring
efforts may be successful, the contractor&#146;s failure to ultimately achieve its extended
restructuring plan or perform its contractual obligations under the credit facility or under the
Company&#146;s surety bonds could have a material adverse effect on the Company&#146;s results of operations
and/ or equity. If such failures occur, the Company estimates the additional surety loss, net of
indemnification and subrogation recoveries, but before the effects of minority interest, to be
approximately $160&nbsp;million pretax.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>CNA Surety Corporation</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CCC provided an excess of loss reinsurance contract to the insurance subsidiaries of CNA
Surety over a period that expired on December&nbsp;31, 2000 (the stop loss contract). The stop loss
contract limits the net loss ratios for CNA Surety with respect to certain accounts and lines of
insurance business. In the event that CNA Surety&#146;s accident year net loss ratio exceeds 24% for
1997 through 2000 (the contractual loss ratio), the stop loss contract requires CCC to pay amounts
equal to the amount, if any, by which CNA Surety&#146;s actual accident year net loss ratio exceeds the
contractual loss ratio multiplied by the applicable net earned premiums. The minority shareholders
of CNA Surety do not share in any losses that apply to this contract. There were no reinsurance
balances payable under this stop loss contract as of September&nbsp;30, 2005.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note Q. Statutory Accounting Practices</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s domestic and foreign insurance subsidiaries maintain their accounts in conformity with
accounting practices prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities, which vary in
certain respects from GAAP. In converting from statutory to GAAP, typical adjustments include
deferral of policy acquisition costs and the inclusion of net realized holding gains or losses in
shareholders&#146; equity relating to fixed maturity securities. The National Association of Insurance
Commissioners (NAIC)&nbsp;developed a codified version of statutory accounting principles, designed to
foster more consistency among the states for accounting guidelines and reporting.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s insurance subsidiaries are domiciled in various jurisdictions. These subsidiaries prepare
statutory financial statements in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by
the respective jurisdictions&#146; insurance

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">regulators. Prescribed statutory accounting practices are set forth in a variety of publications
of the NAIC as well as state laws, regulations and general administrative rules.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CCC follows a permitted practice related to the statutory provision for reinsurance, or the
uncollectible reinsurance reserve. This permitted practice allows CCC to record an additional
uncollectible reinsurance reserve amount through a different financial statement line item than the
prescribed statutory convention. This permitted practice was requested and has been granted for
the reporting periods December&nbsp;31, 2004 through September&nbsp;30, 2005. This permitted practice had no
effect on CCC&#146;s statutory surplus as of September&nbsp;30, 2005 or December&nbsp;31, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During 2004 and through March&nbsp;31, 2005, CIC followed a permitted practice related to its statutory
accounting for reinsurance recoverables from voluntary pools. Under the prescribed statutory
accounting practice, CIC would be required to record a reduction to its statutory surplus related
to amounts due from reinsurers, including voluntary pools, that are not authorized in its state of
domicile, South Carolina. The permitted practice allowed CIC to continue to report voluntary pools
that were classified as authorized in CIC&#146;s previous state of domicile, New Hampshire, as
authorized in South Carolina. This permitted practice was intended to be transitional as a result
of CIC&#146;s redomestication from New Hampshire to South Carolina effective January&nbsp;1, 2004. In the
second quarter of 2005, it was determined by CIC&#146;s domiciliary state insurance department that
credit for reinsurance ceded to voluntary pools shall be allowed as an asset. Therefore, a
permitted practice is no longer necessary.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNAF&#146;s ability to pay dividends and other credit obligations is significantly dependent on receipt
of dividends from its subsidiaries. The payment of dividends to CNAF by its insurance subsidiaries
without prior approval of the insurance department of each subsidiary&#146;s domiciliary jurisdiction is
limited by formula. Dividends in excess of these amounts are subject to prior approval by the
respective state insurance departments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Dividends from CCC are subject to the insurance holding company laws of the State of Illinois, the
domiciliary state of CCC. Under these laws, ordinary dividends, or dividends that do not require
prior approval of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation &#151; Division of
Insurance (the Department), may be paid only from earned surplus, which is calculated by removing
unrealized gains from unassigned surplus. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, CCC is in a positive earned
surplus position, thereby enabling CCC to pay approximately $330&nbsp;million in dividends for the
remainder of 2005 that would not be subject to the Department&#146;s prior approval. The actual level
of dividends paid in any year is determined after an assessment of available dividend capacity,
holding company liquidity and cash needs as well as the impact the dividends will have on the
statutory surplus of the applicable insurance company.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CCC&#146;s earned surplus was negative at December&nbsp;31, 2004. As a result, CCC obtained approval from
the Department in December of 2004, for extraordinary dividends in the amount of approximately $125
million to be used to fund CNAF&#146;s 2005 debt service requirements. CCC&#146;s earned surplus was
restored to a positive position, in part, as a result of a $500&nbsp;million dividend received from its
subsidiary, CAC, during the first quarter of 2005. By agreement with the New Hampshire Insurance
Department, the CIC Group may not pay dividends to CCC until after January&nbsp;1, 2006.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CNA FINANCIAL CORPORATION<BR>
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued<BR>
(UNAUDITED)</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Note R. Restatement for Reinsurance and Equity Investee Accounting</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">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&nbsp;31, 2004 and 2003, and for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and all
related disclosures, as well as its interim financial data for all interim periods of 2004 and
2003. This restatement was based upon reconsideration of the Company&#146;s accounting for its former
equity interest in Accord Re Ltd. (Accord) and for several reinsurance contracts with Accord, but
also included two reinsurance agreements with unaffiliated parties that are immaterial in the
aggregate. A subsidiary of The Continental Corporation (TCC)&nbsp;acquired a 49% ownership interest in
Accord, a Bermuda company, in 1989 upon Accord&#146;s formation. TCC also provided capital support to
Accord through a guarantee from a TCC subsidiary. TCC was acquired by the Company in 1995.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">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.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">All of the Company&#146;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&nbsp;31, 2005 the Company provided no capital support to and had
no ownership interest in Accord. During the period of the Company&#146;s minority ownership, Accord
also maintained reinsurance relationships with reinsurers unaffiliated with the Company.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company accounted for its reinsurance cessions to Accord and related retrocessions from Accord
as reinsurance. 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
applied deposit accounting to the Company&#146;s reinsurance cessions to Accord. The restatement
corrections also include adjustments to the Company&#146;s historical equity method accounting for its
ownership and economic interest in Accord, including the effects of applying deposit accounting to
certain of Accord&#146;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.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The effect of the restatement on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three
and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 is included in the table below.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net results from operations for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 were adversely impacted
by $294&nbsp;million after-tax as a result of catastrophes, including Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Dennis
and Ophelia. This loss estimate was developed after consideration of reported claims, the insured
values of properties in the affected areas, modeled losses, industry loss estimates and the
Company&#146;s reinsurance coverage. Because of the nature of the four hurricanes, the estimate
involves significant judgment due in part to the limited ability to access portions of the affected
area, legal and regulatory uncertainties, the complexity of factors contributing to the losses and
the preliminary nature of the information available. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that
CNA&#146;s ultimate cost for these catastrophes will not exceed this estimate. Net results from
operations for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 were adversely impacted by Hurricanes
Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne. The four storms

hurricane loss estimates are net of anticipated reinsurance recoveries, and include the impact of
reinstatement premiums, insurance assessments and a bad debt provision for uncollectible insurance
receivables.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Commercial catastrophe losses, gross of reinsurance, were $797&nbsp;million and $280&nbsp;million for the
three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004. See the Reinsurance section of this MD&#038;A for
further discussion of the Company&#146;s catastrophe reinsurance program.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net operating income for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 decreased $54&nbsp;million as
compared with the same period in 2004. In addition to the catastrophes discussed above, these
results were adversely impacted by increased unfavorable net prior year development and decreased
premiums. Favorably impacting results were increased net investment income and a decrease in the
provision for uncollectible insurance receivables. The Company recorded a bad debt provision
related to Professional Employer Organization (PEO)&nbsp;accounts of $62&nbsp;million after-tax in the third
quarter of 2004. The Standard Lines and Specialty Lines segments produced a combined ratio of
119.9% for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005, which included a 26.4 point impact from
catastrophes. The Standard Lines and Specialty Lines segments produced a combined ratio of 111.8%
for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004, which included a 15.7 point impact from
catastrophes.

decreased operating income.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Pretax realized investment gains were $67&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as
compared to realized investment losses of $62&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30,
2004. The increase in realized gains was primarily driven by favorable results in derivative
securities and improved results in corporate and other taxable bonds, partially offset by less
favorable results from tax-exempt bonds.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net earned premiums decreased $74&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared
with the same period in 2004. The decrease in net earned premiums was due primarily to lower
premiums in the Standard Lines segment, partially offset by increased earned premiums in the
Specialty Lines segment. See the segment discussion for further information.

with the same period in 2004. Net operating income for the 2005 period was adversely impacted by
increased catastrophe losses as discussed in the three month discussion, decreased premiums and $68
million after-tax of increased unfavorable net prior year development. Partially offsetting
these adverse impacts was a $115&nbsp;million after-tax benefit related to a Federal income tax
settlement and a release of Federal income tax reserves which was recorded in the second quarter of
2005, increased net investment income, a decrease in the bad debt provision for insurance
receivables as discussed above in the three month comparison and lower operating expenses. The
Standard Lines and Specialty Lines segments produced a combined ratio of 106.2% for the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2005, which included an 8.8 point impact from catastrophes. The Standard Lines
and Specialty Lines segments produced a combined ratio of 101.7% for the nine months ended

remainder of the decrease in earned premiums was primarily due to the sales of the individual life

premiums from CNA Re due to exiting the reinsurance market in 2003.

MANAGEMENT&#146;S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, Continued</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Critical Accounting Estimates</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP)&nbsp;requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported during the period. Actual results may
differ from those estimates.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and accompanying notes have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. CNA continually evaluates the
accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In general, management&#146;s estimates are based on historical experience, evaluation of current
trends, information from third party professionals and various other assumptions that are believed
to be reasonable under the known facts and circumstances.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The accounting estimates discussed below are considered by management to be critical to an
understanding of CNA&#146;s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as their application places the
most significant demands on management&#146;s judgment. Note A of the Consolidated Financial Statements
included under Item&nbsp;8 of the Company&#146;s Form 10-K/A for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, should be
read in conjunction with this section to assist with obtaining an understanding of the underlying
accounting policies related to these estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved with
these types of judgments, actual results could differ significantly from estimates and may have a
material adverse impact on the Company&#146;s results of operations or equity.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Insurance Reserves</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Insurance reserves are established for both short and long-duration insurance contracts.
Short-duration contracts are primarily related to property and casualty insurance policies where
the reserving process is based on actuarial estimates of the amount of loss, including amounts for
known and unknown claims. Long-duration contracts typically include traditional life insurance and
long term care products and are estimated using actuarial estimates about mortality and morbidity,
as well as assumptions about expected investment returns. Changes in estimates of claim and
allocated claim adjustment expense reserves and premium accruals for prior accident years are
defined as development within this MD&#038;A. These changes can be favorable or unfavorable. The
inherent risks associated with the reserving process are discussed in the Reserves &#150; Estimates and
Uncertainties section below.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Reinsurance</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with claim and claim
adjustment expense reserves or future policy benefits reserves and are reported as receivables in
the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ceding of insurance does not discharge the primary
liability of the Company. An exposure exists with respect to property and casualty and life
reinsurance ceded to the extent that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations or disputes
the liabilities assumed under reinsurance agreements. Therefore, an estimated allowance for
doubtful accounts is recorded on the basis of periodic evaluations of balances due from reinsurers,
reinsurer solvency, management&#146;s experience and current economic conditions.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Reinsurance accounting allows for contractual cash flows to be reflected as premiums and losses, as
compared to deposit accounting, which requires cash flows to be reflected as assets and
liabilities. To qualify for reinsurance accounting, reinsurance agreements must include risk
transfer. Considerable judgment by management may be necessary to determine if risk transfer
requirements are met. The Company believes it has appropriately applied reinsurance accounting
principles in its evaluation of risk transfer. However, the Company&#146;s evaluation of risk transfer
and the resulting accounting could be challenged in connection with regulatory reviews or possible
changes in accounting and/or financial reporting rules related to reinsurance, which could
materially adversely affect the Company&#146;s results of operations and/or equity. Further information
on reinsurance is provided in the Reinsurance section below.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Invested assets are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks.
Due to the level of risk associated with certain invested assets and the level of uncertainty
related to changes in the value of these assets, it is possible that changes in risks in the near
term could have an adverse material impact on the Company&#146;s results of operations or equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s investment portfolio is subject to market declines below book value that may be
other-than-temporary. The Company has an Impairment Committee, which reviews the investment
portfolio on a quarterly basis, with ongoing analysis as new information becomes available. Any
decline that is determined to be other-than-temporary is recorded as an impairment loss in the
results of operations in the period in which the determination occurred. Further information on
the Company&#146;s process for evaluating impairments is included in the Investments section below.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Long Term Care Products</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s reserves and deferred acquisition costs for its long term care products are
based on certain assumptions including morbidity, policy persistency and interest rates. Actual
experience may differ from these assumptions. The recoverability of deferred acquisition costs and
the adequacy of the reserves are contingent on actual experience related to these key assumptions
and other factors including potential future premium increases and future health care cost trends.
The results of operations and/or equity may be materially, adversely affected if actual experience
varies significantly from these assumptions.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Pension and Postretirement Benefit Obligations</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is required to make a significant number of assumptions in order to estimate the
liabilities and costs related to its pension and postretirement benefit obligations to employees
under its benefit plans. The assumptions that have the most impact on pension costs are the
discount rate, the expected return on plan assets and the rate of compensation increases. These
assumptions are evaluated relative to current market factors such as inflation, interest rates and
fiscal and monetary policies. Changes in these assumptions can have a material impact on pension
obligations and pension expense. Further information on the Company&#146;s pension and postretirement
benefit obligations is included in Note K of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
included under Item&nbsp;1.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Legal Proceedings</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that have arisen during the ordinary
course of business. The Company evaluates the facts and circumstances of each situation, and when
the Company determines it necessary, a liability is estimated and recorded. Further information on
the Company&#146;s legal proceedings and related contingent liabilities is provided in Notes G and H of
the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under Item&nbsp;1.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Loans to National Contractor</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA Surety has provided significant surety bond protection for a large national contractor
that undertakes projects for the construction of government and private facilities, a substantial
portion of which have been reinsured by CCC. In order to help this contractor meet its liquidity
needs and complete projects which had been bonded by CNA Surety, commencing in 2003 CNAF provided
loans to the contractor through a credit facility, up to an amended aggregate maximum of $126
million. The credit facility expires in March&nbsp;2009 and the current interest rate is 5% per annum.
As of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, there was $126&nbsp;million and $95&nbsp;million of loans
outstanding under the credit facility, and $6&nbsp;million and $4&nbsp;million of deferred or accrued and
unpaid interest. Loews, through a participation agreement with CNAF, has funded and owns a
participation of $40&nbsp;million and $29&nbsp;million of the outstanding advances as of September&nbsp;30, 2005
and December&nbsp;31, 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Loans under the credit facility are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the

concentrating on those segments determined to be potentially profitable. As a consequence,
operating cash flow, and in turn the capacity to service debt, have been reduced below previous
levels. In light of these developments, CNA recorded a pretax impairment charge of $56&nbsp;million in
the fourth quarter of 2004, net of the participation by Loews, with respect to amounts loaned under
the facility, and an additional pretax impairment charge of $13&nbsp;million during the first quarter of
2005. Representatives from the Company and CNA Surety met with senior management of the national
contractor in June&nbsp;2005 to review their actual cash flow through that date, as well as discuss
expected future cash flow. Pursuant to those discussions and ongoing monitoring of the status of
the contractor&#146;s restructuring plan, deterioration in operations and cash flow was observed. This
deterioration was concentrated in an operating division of the contractor that had previously been
placed into run off. As a result of these developments, the Company made a decision not to provide
additional liquidity to the contractor. Accordingly, during the second quarter of 2005 the Company
took a further pretax impairment charge of $21&nbsp;million. Further, CNA Surety established $40
million of estimated initial surety loss reserves in the second quarter of 2005 in anticipation of
future loss payments related to the national contractor. During the third quarter of 2005, CNA
Surety paid $16&nbsp;million in loss payments to the national contractor to settle outstanding bonded
obligations. In the third quarter, CNA Surety began an evaluation of the contractor&#146;s current
restructuring efforts. Possible changes to the restructuring strategy could result in higher loss
estimates and trigger additional reserve actions. CNA Surety expects to complete this reevaluation
in the fourth quarter.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">If any such reserve additions were taken, CNA Surety would have exposure for the first $20&nbsp;million
and CCC would have all further surety bond exposure through the reinsurance arrangements discussed
below. CNA Surety has advised that it intends to continue to provide surety bonds on behalf of the
contractor while it reevaluates the contractor&#146;s restructuring efforts, subject to the contractor&#146;s
initial and ongoing compliance with CNA Surety&#146;s underwriting standards and ongoing management of
CNA Surety&#146;s exposure in relation to the contractor. All surety bonds written for the national
contractor are issued by CCC and its affiliates, other than CNA Surety, and are subject to
underlying reinsurance treaties pursuant to which all bonds written on behalf of CNA Surety are
100% reinsured to one of CNA Surety&#146;s insurance subsidiaries.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">During the second quarter of 2005, CCC and CNA Surety executed amendments to existing treaties that
provide reinsurance protection to CNA Surety for losses associated with the contractor. Coverage for
all such losses in excess of an aggregate $60&nbsp;million is now provided under one treaty. This treaty
provides coverage for the life of bonds either in force or written during the term of the treaty,
which runs from January&nbsp;1, 2005 to December&nbsp;31, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Indemnification and subrogation rights, including rights to contract proceeds on construction
projects in the event of default, exist that reduce CNA Surety&#146;s and ultimately the Company&#146;s
exposure to loss. While the Company believes that the contractor&#146;s continuing restructuring
efforts may be successful, the contractor&#146;s failure to ultimately achieve its extended
restructuring plan or perform its contractual obligations under the credit facility or under the
Company&#146;s surety bonds could have a material adverse effect on the Company&#146;s results of operations
and/ or equity. If such failures occur, the Company estimates the additional surety loss, net of
indemnification and subrogation recoveries, but before the effects of minority interest, to be
approximately $160&nbsp;million pretax.

under the heading &#147;Insurance Reserves.&#148; Adjustments to prior year reserve estimates, if necessary,
are reflected in the results of operations in the period that the need for such adjustments is
determined. The carried case and IBNR reserves are provided in the Segment Results section of this
MD&#038;A and in Note H of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under Item&nbsp;1.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The level of reserves maintained by the Company represents management&#146;s best estimate, as of a
particular point in time, of what the ultimate settlement and administration of claims will cost
based on its assessment of facts and circumstances known at that time. Reserves are not an exact
calculation of liability but instead are complex estimates that are derived by the Company,
generally utilizing a variety of actuarial reserve estimation techniques, from numerous assumptions
and expectations about future events, both internal and external, many of which are highly
uncertain.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Among the many uncertain future events about which the Company makes assumptions and estimates,
many of which have become increasingly unpredictable, are claims severity, frequency of claims,
mortality, morbidity, expected interest rates, inflation, claims handling and case reserving
policies and procedures, underwriting and pricing policies, changes in the legal and regulatory
environment and the lag time between the occurrence of an insured event and the time it is
ultimately settled, referred to in the insurance industry as the &#147;tail.&#148; These factors must be
individually considered in relation to the Company&#146;s evaluation of each type of business. Many of
these uncertainties are not precisely quantifiable, particularly on a prospective basis, and
require significant management judgment.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Given the factors described above, it is not possible to quantify precisely the ultimate exposure
represented by claims and related litigation. As a result, the Company regularly reviews the
adequacy of its reserves and reassesses its reserve estimates as historical loss experience
develops, additional claims are reported and settled and additional information becomes available
in subsequent periods.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition, the Company is subject to the uncertain effects of emerging or potential claims and
coverage issues that arise as industry practices and legal, judicial, social and other
environmental conditions change. These issues have had, and may continue to have, a negative
effect on the Company&#146;s business by either extending coverage beyond the original underwriting
intent or by increasing the number or size of claims. Examples of emerging or potential claims

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">It is also not possible to predict changes in the legal and legislative environment and the impact
on the future development of APMT claims. This development will be affected by future court
decisions and interpretations, as well as changes in applicable legislation. It is difficult to
predict the ultimate outcome of large coverage disputes until settlement negotiations near
completion and significant legal questions are resolved or, failing settlement, until the dispute
is adjudicated. This is particularly the case with policyholders in bankruptcy where negotiations
often involve a large number of claimants and other parties and require court approval to be
effective. A further uncertainty exists as to whether a national privately financed trust to
replace litigation of asbestos claims with payments to claimants from the trust will be established
and approved through federal legislation, and, if established and approved, whether it will contain
funding requirements in excess of the Company&#146;s carried loss reserves.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Due to the factors described above, among others, establishing reserves for APMT claim and claim
adjustment expenses is subject to uncertainties that are greater than those presented by other
claims. Traditional actuarial methods and techniques employed to estimate the ultimate cost of
claims for more traditional property and casualty exposures are less precise in estimating claim
and claim adjustment reserves for APMT, particularly in an environment of emerging or potential
claims and coverage issues that arise from industry practices and legal, judicial and social
conditions. Therefore, these traditional actuarial methods and techniques are necessarily
supplemented with additional estimation techniques and methodologies, many of which involve
significant judgments that are required of management. Due to the inherent uncertainties in
estimating reserves for APMT claim and claim adjustment expenses and the degree of variability due
to, among other things, the factors described above, the Company may be required to record material
changes in its claim and claim adjustment expense reserves in the future, should new information
become available or other developments emerge. See the Asbestos and Environmental Pollution and
Mass Tort Reserves section of this MD&#038;A for additional information relating to APMT claims and
reserves.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s recorded reserves, including APMT reserves, reflect management&#146;s best estimate as of
a particular point in time based upon known facts, current law and management&#146;s judgment. The
reserve analyses performed by the Company&#146;s actuaries result in point estimates. Management uses
these point estimates as the primary factor in determining the carried reserve. The carried
reserve may differ from the actuarial point estimate as the result of management&#146;s consideration of
the factors noted above including, but not limited to, the potential volatility of the projections
associated with the specific product being analyzed and the effects of changes in claims handling,
underwriting and other factors impacting claims costs that may not be quantifiable through
actuarial analysis. For

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">APMT reserves, the reserve analysis performed by the Company&#146;s actuaries results in both a point
estimate and a range. Management uses the point estimate as the primary factor in determining the
carried reserve but also considers the range given the volatility of APMT exposures, as noted
above.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For Standard Lines, the September&nbsp;30, 2005 carried net claim and claim adjustment expense reserve
is slightly higher than the actuarial point estimate. For Specialty Lines, the September&nbsp;30, 2005
carried net claim and claim adjustment expense reserve is also slightly higher than the actuarial
point estimate. For both Standard Lines and Specialty Lines, the difference is primarily due to
the 2004 and 2005 accident years. The data from these recent accident years is very immature from
a claim and claim adjustment expense point of view so it is prudent to wait until experience
confirms that the loss ratios should be adjusted. For Corporate and Other Non-Core, the September
30, 2005 carried net claim and claim adjustment expense reserve is slightly higher than the
actuarial point estimate. While the actuarial estimates for APMT exposures reflect current
knowledge, management feels it is prudent, based on the history of developments in this area, to
reflect some volatility in the carried reserve until the ultimate outcome of the issues associated
with these exposures is clearer.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In light of the many uncertainties associated with establishing the estimates and making the
assumptions necessary to establish reserve levels, the Company reviews its reserve estimates on a
regular basis and makes adjustments in the period that the need for such adjustments is determined
(see Net Prior Year Development above). These reviews have resulted in the Company identifying
information and trends that have caused the Company to increase its reserves in prior periods and
could lead to the identification of a need for additional material increases in claim and claim
adjustment expense reserves, which could materially adversely affect the Company&#146;s results of
operations, equity, business and insurer financial strength and debt ratings (see the Ratings
section of this MD&#038;A).

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA assumes and cedes reinsurance with other insurers, reinsurers and members of various
reinsurance pools and associations. CNA utilizes reinsurance arrangements to limit its maximum
loss, provide greater diversification of risk, minimize exposures on larger risks and to exit
certain lines of business. The ceding of insurance does not discharge the primary liability of the
Company. Therefore, an exposure exists with respect to property and casualty and life reinsurance
ceded to the extent that any reinsurer is unable to meet its obligations or disputes the
liabilities assumed under reinsurance agreements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Property and casualty reinsurance coverages are tailored to the specific risk characteristics of
each product line and CNA&#146;s retained amount varies by type of coverage. Treaty reinsurance is
purchased to protect specific lines of business such as property, workers compensation and
professional liability. Corporate catastrophe reinsurance is also purchased for property and
workers compensation exposure. Most treaty reinsurance is purchased on an excess of loss basis. CNA
also utilizes facultative reinsurance in certain lines.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has established an allowance for uncollectible reinsurance receivables. The
allowance for uncollectible reinsurance receivables was $552&nbsp;million and $546&nbsp;million at September
30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004. The expenses incurred related to uncollectible reinsurance
receivables are presented as a component of &#147;Insurance claims and policyholders&#146; benefits&#148; on the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company attempts to mitigate its credit risk related to reinsurance by entering into
reinsurance arrangements only with reinsurers that have credit ratings above certain levels and by
obtaining substantial amounts of collateral. The primary methods of obtaining collateral are
through reinsurance trusts, letters of credit and funds withheld balances.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In certain circumstances, including significant deterioration of a reinsurer&#146;s financial strength
ratings or resolution of disputes, the Company may engage in commutation discussions with
individual reinsurers. The outcome of such discussions may result in a lump sum settlement that is
less than the recorded receivable, net of any applicable allowance for doubtful accounts. Losses
arising from commutations could have an adverse material impact on the Company&#146;s results of
operations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Reinsurance accounting allows for contractual cash flows to be reflected as premiums and losses, as
compared to deposit accounting, which requires cash flows to be reflected as assets and
liabilities. To qualify for reinsurance accounting, reinsurance agreements must include risk
transfer. To meet risk transfer requirements, a reinsurance contract must include both insurance
risk, consisting of underwriting and timing risk, and a reasonable possibility of a significant
loss for the assuming entity. Reinsurance contracts that include both significant risk sharing
provisions, such as adjustments to premiums or loss coverage based on loss experience, and
relatively low policy limits as evidenced by a high proportion of maximum premium assessments to
loss limits, may require considerable judgment to determine whether or not risk transfer
requirements are met. For such contracts, often referred to as finite products, the Company
generally assesses risk transfer for each contract by developing quantitative analyses at contract
inception which measure the present value of reinsurer losses as compared to the present value of
the related premium.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Reinsurance contracts that do not effectively transfer the underlying economic risk of loss on
policies written by the Company are recorded using the deposit method of accounting, which requires
that premium paid or received by the ceding company or assuming company be accounted for as a
deposit asset or liability. The Company primarily records these deposits as either reinsurance
receivables or other assets for ceded recoverables and reinsurance balances payable or other
liabilities for assumed liabilities.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The anticipated reinsurance recoveries related to Hurricane Katrina assume significant
utilization of the Company&#146;s Corporate Property Catastrophe, Corporate Property Per Risk and Marine
reinsurance treaties. The Corporate Property Catastrophe treaty provides 90% coverage for the
accumulation of losses between $200&nbsp;million and $500

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">million arising out of a single catastrophe
occurrence. Coverage under this treaty was fully utilized for Hurricane Katrina. After payment of
a reinstatement premium, the Company has coverage for one additional occurrence in 2005 under this
treaty. The Corporate Property Per Risk treaty limits the Company&#146;s loss on an individual insured
property to $10&nbsp;million, subject to certain limitations and aggregate limits contained in the
treaty. The Company&#146;s
Marine treaty provides $75&nbsp;million of protection above a $10&nbsp;million retention on the accumulation
of losses arising out of a single catastrophe occurrence. After payment of reinstatement premiums,
the Company has almost full ongoing coverage under these treaties.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition to these reinsurance treaties, the Company&#146;s exposure to Hurricane Rita is further
mitigated by an Aggregate Property Catastrophe treaty. This treaty provides reinsurance
protection against the aggregation of losses from multiple catastrophic events. The Aggregate
Property Catastrophe treaty covers 95% of $150&nbsp;million of losses above a retention of $100&nbsp;million
from named earthquake or wind storm catastrophes which exceed $25&nbsp;million in 2005. For any single
event, the maximum that can be applied to the Company&#146;s retention or recovered under the treaty is
$80&nbsp;million. The Company has approximately $45&nbsp;million of available recoveries from this treaty
in the event its estimate of gross losses from Hurricane Rita increases in the future. Hurricane
Wilma made landfall on October&nbsp;24, 2005. It is too early for the Company to estimate the impact of
this hurricane. If the aggregate losses exceed $25&nbsp;million, coverage under this treaty would
apply.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s overall ceded reinsurance program includes certain finite property and casualty
contracts, such as the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties discussed in more detail below,
that are entered into and accounted for on a &#147;funds withheld&#148; basis. Under the funds withheld
basis, the Company records the cash remitted to the reinsurer for the reinsurer&#146;s margin, or cost
of the reinsurance contract, as ceded premiums. The remainder of the premiums ceded under the
reinsurance contract not remitted in cash is recorded as funds withheld liabilities. The Company
is required to increase the funds withheld balance at stated interest crediting rates applied to
the funds withheld balance or as otherwise specified under the terms of the contract. The funds
withheld liability is reduced by any cumulative claim payments made by the Company in excess of the
Company&#146;s retention under the reinsurance contract. If the funds withheld liability is exhausted,
interest crediting will cease and additional claim payments are recoverable from the reinsurer.
The funds withheld liability is recorded in Reinsurance Balances Payable in the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

claim adjustment expenses, ceding commissions and interest charges. This unfavorable outcome was
partially offset by a release of previously established reinsurance bad debt reserves resulting in
a net impact of $10&nbsp;million pretax expense for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Interest cost on reinsurance contracts accounted for on a funds withheld basis is incurred
during all periods in which a funds withheld liability exists, and is included in net investment
income. The amount subject to interest crediting rates on such contracts was $2,225&nbsp;million and
$2,564&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004. Certain funds withheld reinsurance
contracts, including the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties, require interest on additional
premiums arising from ceded losses as if those premiums were payable at the inception of the
contract.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The amount subject to interest crediting on these funds withheld contracts will vary over time
based on a number of factors, including the timing of loss payments and ultimate gross losses
incurred. The Company expects that it will continue to incur significant interest costs on these
contracts for several years.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Corporate Aggregate Reinsurance Treaties</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has an aggregate reinsurance treaty related to the 1999 through 2001 accident
years that covers substantially all of the Company&#146;s property and casualty lines of business (the
Aggregate Cover). The Aggregate Cover provides for two sections of coverage. These coverages
attach at defined loss ratios for each accident year. Coverage under the first section of the
Aggregate Cover, which is available for all accident years covered by the treaty, has a $500
million limit per accident year of ceded losses and an aggregate limit of $1&nbsp;billion of ceded
losses for the three accident years. The ceded premiums associated with the first section are a
percentage of ceded losses and for each $500&nbsp;million of limit the ceded premium is $230&nbsp;million.
The second section of the Aggregate Cover, which only relates to accident year 2001, provides
additional coverage of up to $510&nbsp;million of ceded losses for a maximum ceded premium of $310
million. Under the Aggregate Cover, interest charges on the funds withheld liability accrue at 8%
per annum. The aggregate loss ratio for the three-year period has exceeded certain thresholds
which required additional premiums to be paid and an increase in the rate at which interest charges
are accrued. This rate will increase to 8.25% per annum commencing in 2006. Also, if an
additional aggregate loss ratio threshold is exceeded, additional premiums of 10% of amounts in
excess of the aggregate loss ratio threshold are to be paid retroactively with interest. The
aggregate limits under both sections of the Aggregate Cover have been fully utilized.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2001, the Company entered into a one-year aggregate reinsurance treaty related to the 2001
accident year covering substantially all property and casualty lines of business in the Continental
Casualty Company pool (the CCC Cover). The loss protection provided by the CCC Cover has an
aggregate limit of approximately $761&nbsp;million of ceded losses. The ceded premiums are a percentage
of ceded losses. The ceded premium related to full utilization of the $761&nbsp;million of limit is
$456&nbsp;million. The CCC Cover provides continuous coverage in excess of the second section of the
Aggregate Cover discussed above. Under the CCC Cover, interest charges on the funds withheld are
accrued at 8% per annum. The interest rate increases to 10% per annum if the aggregate loss ratio
exceeds certain thresholds. The aggregate loss ratio exceeded that threshold in the fourth quarter
of 2004 which required retroactive interest charges on funds withheld. The CCC Cover was fully
utilized in 2003.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At the Company&#146;s discretion, the contract can be commuted annually on the anniversary date of the
contract. The CCC Cover requires mandatory commutation on December&nbsp;31, 2010, if the agreement has
not been commuted on or
before such date. Upon mandatory commutation of the CCC Cover, the reinsurer is required to
release to the Company the existing balance of the funds withheld account if the unpaid ultimate
ceded losses at the time of

balance. If the unpaid ultimate ceded losses at the time of commutation are greater than the funds
withheld account balance, the reinsurer will release the existing balance of the funds withheld
account and pay CNA the present value of the projected amount the reinsurer would have had to pay
from its own funds absent a commutation. The present value is calculated using 1-year LIBOR as of
the date of the commutation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On July&nbsp;12, 2005, CNA received arbitration notices from several insurance affiliates of Hannover
Reinsurance Group (Hannover) related to the Aggregate Cover and two additional finite reinsurance
treaties written by Hannover. Among the contract interpretation issues in dispute are the
allocation of losses to accident year under the first section of the Aggregate Cover, the timing of
deductions from the funds withheld account for all of the treaties, the timing of deductions from a
reserve account for one of the treaties, and coverage for certain self-insured obligations under
one of the treaties. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interpretation of the contracts.
If Hannover&#146;s position on all issues were to be sustained, the Company estimates that it would
incur additional ceded premium and interest charges of $50&nbsp;million to $70&nbsp;million after-tax.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Terrorism Insurance</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA and the insurance industry incurred substantial losses related to the 2001 World Trade Center
event. For the most part, the industry was able to absorb the loss of capital from these losses,
but the capacity to withstand the effect of any additional terrorism events was significantly
diminished.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 (the Act) established a program within the Department of
the Treasury under which the federal government will share the risk of loss by commercial property
and casualty insurers arising from future terrorist attacks. The Act expires on December&nbsp;31, 2005.
Each participating insurance company must pay a deductible, ranging from 7% of direct earned
premiums from commercial insurance lines in 2003 to 15% in 2005, before federal government
assistance becomes available. For losses in excess of a company&#146;s deductible, the federal
government will cover 90% of the excess losses, while companies retain the remaining 10%. Losses
covered by the program will be capped annually at $100&nbsp;billion; above this amount, insurers are not
liable for covered losses and Congress is to determine the procedures for and the source of any
payments. Amounts paid by the federal government under the program over certain phased limits are
to be recouped by the Department of the Treasury through policy surcharges, which cannot exceed 3%
of annual premium.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is required to participate in the program, but it does not cover life or health
insurance products. State law limitations applying to premiums and policies for terrorism coverage
are not generally affected under the program. The Act required insurers to offer terrorism
coverage through 2004. On June&nbsp;18, 2004, the Department of the Treasury announced its decision to
extend this offer requirement until December&nbsp;31, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">While the Act provides the property and casualty industry with an increased ability to withstand
the effect of a terrorist event through 2005, given the unpredictability of the nature, targets,
severity or frequency of potential terrorist events, the Company&#146;s results of operations or equity
could nevertheless be materially adversely impacted by them. The Company is attempting to mitigate
this exposure through its underwriting practices, policy terms and conditions (where applicable).
In addition, under state laws, the Company is generally prohibited from excluding terrorism
exposure from its primary workers compensation. In those states that mandate property insurance
coverage of damage from fire following a loss, the Company is also prohibited from excluding
terrorism exposure under such coverage.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Terrorism-related reinsurance losses are not covered by the Act. The Company&#146;s assumed reinsurance
arrangements either exclude terrorism coverage or significantly limit the level of coverage.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">There are currently two pending bills in Congress, H.R. 1153 and S. 467, to reauthorize the Act.
These bills would extend the Act for two additional years and require that terrorism coverage be
made available for all years. Deductibles under the bills would be held at 15% in 2006 and raised
to 20% in 2007. The Department of the Treasury released a study on June&nbsp;30, 2005 that does not
support Congress&#146; reauthorization of the Act in its current form. The Company will continue to
work with other insurers, policyholders and members of Congress to craft a workable solution to
replace the Act.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Over the past several years, CNA has been underwriting its business to manage its terrorism
exposure. If the Act is not reauthorized, CNA will utilize conditional terrorism exclusions for
risks that present terrorism exposure, where
permitted by law. Strict underwriting standards and risk avoidance measures will be taken where
exclusions are not permitted. Annual policy renewals with effective dates of January&nbsp;1, 2005 or
later are being underwritten with the assumption that the Act will not be extended and that no
Federal backstop for terrorism exposure will be available. In July&nbsp;2004, the National Association
of Insurance Commissioners adopted a Model Bulletin available for use in states that intend to
approve terrorism coverage limitations in the event the Act is not reauthorized. To date,
conditional terrorism exclusions have been approved in all states except New York, Florida and
Georgia. Accordingly, if the Act is not extended, CNA will utilize these conditional terrorism
exclusions in all states where so allowed. Notwithstanding CNA&#146;s efforts, however, there is no
assurance that CNA will be able to eliminate or limit terrorism exposure risks in coverages, or
that all regulatory authorities will approve policy exclusions for terrorism. There is also
substantial uncertainty as to CNA&#146;s ability to effectively contain its terrorism exposure since,
notwithstanding the underwriting measures described above, it continues to issue forms of coverage,
in particular workers&#146; compensation, that are exposed to risk of loss from a terrorism event.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As discussed in the Company&#146;s 2004 Form 10-K/A, the Company continues to manage the liabilities
from a restructuring plan related to restructuring the property and casualty segments and the Life
and Group Non-Core segment, discontinuation of the variable life and annuity business and
consolidation of real estate locations (the 2001 Plan). No restructuring and other related charges
related to the 2001 Plan were incurred for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and
2004. During 2005, $1&nbsp;million in payments for lease termination costs were charged against the
liability and the remaining accrual of $1&nbsp;million related to impaired asset charges was released.
As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, the accrued liability, relating to lease termination costs, was $13
million. Of the remaining accrual, approximately $2&nbsp;million is expected to be paid in the fourth
quarter of 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>SEGMENT RESULTS</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following discusses the results of operations for the Company&#146;s operating segments. Management
utilizes the net operating income financial measure to monitor the Company&#146;s operations. Net
operating income is calculated by excluding from net income the after-tax effects of 1) net
realized investment gains or losses, 2) gains or losses from discontinued operations and 3)
cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles. See further discussion regarding how the
Company manages its business in Note N &#150; Business Segments. 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.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company records favorable or unfavorable premium and claim and claim adjustment expense reserve
development related to the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties as movements in the claim and
allocated claim adjustment expense reserves for the accident years covered by the corporate
aggregate reinsurance treaties indicate such development is required. While the available limit of
these treaties has been fully utilized, the ceded premiums and losses for an individual segment may
change because of the re-estimation of the subject losses. See the Reinsurance section of this
MD&#038;A for further discussion of the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties. For the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2005, the Company recorded unfavorable net prior year development of $17
million related to the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties, consisting of $13&nbsp;million of
unfavorable development in Standard Lines, $6&nbsp;million of favorable development in Specialty Lines
and $10&nbsp;million of unfavorable development in Corporate and Other Non-Core.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net written premiums for Standard Lines increased $1&nbsp;million. The net written premium results are
consistent with the Company&#146;s strategy of portfolio optimization. The Company&#146;s priority is a
diversified portfolio in profitable classes of business. Net earned premiums decreased $103
million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared with the same period in 2004.
This decrease was primarily driven by decreased premiums written over the past quarters, as well as
increased reinsurance reinstatement premiums in 2005 due to the hurricanes.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Standard Lines averaged rate decreases of 2% and rate increases of 3% for the three months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004 for the contracts that renewed during the period. Retention rates of
78% and 65% were achieved for those contracts that were up for renewal.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net operating income decreased $70&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as
compared with the same period in 2004. These results were adversely impacted by increased
catastrophe impacts. Catastrophe impacts were $280&nbsp;million after-tax and $172&nbsp;million after-tax
for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004. The 2005 catastrophe impacts include
estimated net losses related to Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Dennis and Ophelia. Also adversely
impacting the 2005 results was less favorable current accident year losses as discussed below and
decreased premiums. Third quarter of 2005 results were favorably impacted by a decrease in the
insurance receivable bad debt provision and increased net investment income.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net loss increased $14&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared with the
same period in 2004. This increase was primarily attributable to an increased net operating loss,
partially offset by improved net realized investment results. See the Investments section of the
MD&#038;A for discussion on net investment income and net realized investment results.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The combined ratio increased 17.4 points for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005, as compared
with the same period in 2004. The loss ratio increased 25.9 points due principally to increased
catastrophe losses and a higher current accident year loss ratio compared with the same period in
2004. The 2005 catastrophes had an adverse impact of 40.0 points on the loss ratio for the three
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005. The 2004 catastrophes had an adverse impact of 21.0 points on the
loss ratio for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The loss ratio for the third quarter of 2004 was favorably impacted by a $55&nbsp;million reduction of
2004 accident year losses. Catastrophe losses, net of reinsurance, of $418&nbsp;million pretax and $245
million pretax were recorded for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Unfavorable net prior year development of $25&nbsp;million was recorded for the three months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005, including $18&nbsp;million of unfavorable claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense reserve development and $7&nbsp;million of unfavorable premium development. Unfavorable net
prior year development of $6
million, including $2&nbsp;million of favorable claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserve
development and $8&nbsp;million of unfavorable premium development, was recorded for the three months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>2005 Net Prior Year Development</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $33&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development resulted from increased severity trends for workers compensation, primarily in
accident year 2001 and prior. Approximately $23&nbsp;million of favorable net prior year claim and
allocated claim adjustment expense development was recorded due to continued improvement in the
severity and number of claims for property coverages, primarily in accident year 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $35&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development was attributed to increased severity in liability coverages for large account
policies. The remainder of the favorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development was primarily a result of improved experience on several coverages on middle
market business mainly in accident year 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>2004 Net Prior Year Development</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the third quarter of 2004, approximately $15&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior claim and
allocated claim adjustment expense reserve development was recorded in relation to the Company&#146;s
share of the National Workers Compensation Reinsurance Pool (NWCRP). During the third quarter of
2004, the NWCRP reached an agreement with a former pool member to settle their pool liabilities at
an amount less than their established share. The result of this settlement was a higher allocation
to the remaining pool members, including the Company.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The expense ratio decreased 8.1 points for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared
with the same period in 2004. This decrease in 2005 was primarily due to the decrease in the bad
debt provision for insurance receivables, a change in estimate related to the 2004 hurricane
assessments and lower guaranty fund assessments. The Company recorded an estimated bad debt
provision of $95&nbsp;million in the third quarter of 2004 related to PEO accounts. Partially
offsetting these favorable impacts was the lower earned premium base.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The dividend ratio decreased 0.4 points for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared
with the same period in 2004, driven primarily by lower current accident year dividends recorded in
2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Nine Month Comparison</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net written premiums for Standard Lines decreased $168&nbsp;million and net earned premiums decreased
$423&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared with the same period in 2004.
The net written premium results are consistent with the Company&#146;s strategy of portfolio
optimization. The Company&#146;s priority is a diversified portfolio in profitable classes of business.
The decrease in premiums earned was attributable to the decreased premium writing trend.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Standard Lines averaged rate decreases of 1% for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and rate
increases of 5% for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 for the contracts that renewed during
the period. Retention rates of 75% and 69% were achieved for those contracts that were up for
renewal.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net operating income decreased $81&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared
with the same period in 2004. Net operating income was adversely impacted by increased catastrophe
impacts, decreased premiums, increased unfavorable net prior year development and less favorable
current accident year results. Partially offsetting these adverse impacts was increased net
investment income, decreased bad debt provision for insurance receivables as discussed above in the
three month comparison and favorable operating expenses.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $141&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development resulted from increased severity trends for workers compensation, primarily in
accident year 2002 and prior.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $135&nbsp;million of favorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment expense
development was recorded due to improvement in the severity and number of claims for property
coverages and marine business, primarily in accident year 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $90&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development and $83&nbsp;million of favorable net prior year premium development resulted from
an unfavorable arbitration ruling on two reinsurance treaties.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $76&nbsp;million of the unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development was attributed to increased severity in liability coverages for large account
policies.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $51&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development was related to reviews of liquor liability, trucking and habitational business
that indicated that the number of large claims was higher than previously expected in recent
accident years. The remainder of the favorable net prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment
expense development was primarily a result of improved experience on several coverages on middle
market business, mainly in accident year 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Favorable net prior year premium development was recorded primarily as a result of additional
premium resulting from audits and endorsements on recent policies, primarily workers compensation.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Additionally, there was $19&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim
adjustment expense development and $6&nbsp;million of favorable premium development related to the
corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the second quarter of 2004, the Company finalized commutation agreements with several
members of the Trenwick Group. These commutations resulted in unfavorable claim and claim
adjustment expense reserve development which was more than offset by a release of a previously
established allowance for uncollectible reinsurance.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition approximately $75&nbsp;million of unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim
adjustment expense development recorded in the second quarter of 2004 resulted from increased
severity trends for workers compensation on large account policies primarily in accident years 2002
and prior. Favorable premium development on retrospectively rated large account policies of $25
million was recorded in relation to this unfavorable net prior year claim and allocated claim
adjustment expense development. Also, favorable net prior year premium development of
approximately $60&nbsp;million resulted primarily from higher audit and endorsement premiums on workers
compensation and general liability policies. Approximately $30&nbsp;million of the unfavorable net
prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment expense reserve development was recorded related to
the higher audit and endorsement premium.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the
third quarter of 2004, approximately $15&nbsp;million of unfavorable
net prior year claim and
allocated claim adjustment expense reserve development was recorded in relation to the Company&#146;s
share of the NWCRP. During the third quarter of
2004, the NWCRP reached an agreement with a former pool member to settle their pool liabilities at
an amount less than their established share. The result of this settlement was a higher allocation
to the remaining pool members, including the Company.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net written premiums for Specialty Lines increased $50&nbsp;million for the three months ended September
30, 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to increased
premium writings across most professional liability insurance lines of business. These favorable
impacts were partially offset by increased ceded premiums for certain professional liability lines
of business and decreased premiums for the warranty business. Due to a change in the warranty
product offering, fees related to the new warranty product are included within other revenues.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net earned premiums increased $52&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared
with the same period in 2004, which reflects the increased premium writings over the past several
quarters in Specialty Lines.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Specialty Lines averaged rate increases of 2% and 6% for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005
and 2004 for the contracts that renewed during those periods. Retention rates of 83% and 81% were
achieved for those contracts that were up for renewal. CNA expects rate achievement will continue
to moderate as competition for premiums continues to accelerate in these lines of business.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net operating income increased $28&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as
compared with the same period in 2004. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in net
investment income, improvements in current accident year results, a decrease in the bad debt
provision for reinsurance receivables and increased earned premiums. These increases to operating
income were partially offset by reduced favorable net prior year development and increased
catastrophe impacts in 2005. Catastrophe impacts were $14&nbsp;million after-tax and $7&nbsp;million
after-tax for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net income increased $47&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared with the
same period in 2004 due to increased net operating income and improved net realized investment
results. See the Investments section of this MD&#038;A for further discussion on net investment income
and net realized investment results.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The combined ratio improved 4.5 points for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared
with the same period in 2004. The loss ratio decreased 4.4 points due to a decrease in the bad
debt provision for reinsurance receivables and improvements in the current accident year results,
primarily in the warranty line of business. The improvement in the warranty current accident year
results was offset by a corresponding increase in profit commissions as discussed in the expense
ratio paragraph below. These favorable impacts to the loss ratio were partially offset by
increased catastrophe losses. The 2005 catastrophes had an adverse impact of 3.1 points on the

the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared with the same period in 2004. These increases
were primarily attributable to the increased premium writing trend discussed above. Additionally,
net earned premiums were adversely impacted by the premium development discussed below.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net operating income increased $32&nbsp;million compared to the prior year period. These results were
favorably impacted by increased earned premium, improved current accident year results and an
increase in net investment income. These results were unfavorably impacted by the absence of a net
reduction of the allowance for uncollectible reinsurance receivables recorded in 2004 and increased
catastrophe impacts. Catastrophe impacts were $14&nbsp;million after-tax and $9&nbsp;million after-tax for

discussed above and decreased unfavorable net prior year claim and claim adjustment expense reserve
development. These improvements were partially offset by an increase in the bad debt provision
recorded for reinsurance receivables as compared to the prior year period and increased catastrophe
losses. The 2005 catastrophes had an adverse impact of 1.1 points on the loss ratio for the nine

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Three Month Comparison</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The earned premiums for the Life and Group Non-Core segment consist primarily of premiums from the
group and individual long term care businesses. Net earned premiums of $161&nbsp;million in the third
quarter of 2005 and $165&nbsp;million in the third quarter of 2004 relate to these businesses. The
specialty medical business was sold on January&nbsp;6, 2005. There was $42&nbsp;million of net earned
premiums from the sold specialty medical business in the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net results declined $25&nbsp;million in the third quarter of 2005 as compared with the same period in
2004. The decline in net results was due primarily to a $17&nbsp;million after-tax provision for
estimated indemnification liabilities related to the sold individual life business and unfavorable
reserve development of $14&nbsp;million after-tax related to an accident and health reinsurance program.
Partially offsetting these unfavorable impacts was increased net investment income, which included
approximately $61&nbsp;million from the trading portfolio which was largely offset by a corresponding
increase in the policyholders&#146; funds reserves supported by the trading portfolio. See the
Investments section of this MD&#038;A for additional information on net investment income and net
realized investment results.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Nine Month Comparison</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net earned premiums for Life and Group Non-Core decreased $171&nbsp;million for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared with the same period in 2004. The decrease in net earned premiums
was due primarily to decreased premiums from the sold individual life and specialty medical
businesses.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net results improved $371&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as compared with the
same period in 2004. The improvement in net results related primarily to a $389&nbsp;million after-tax
realized loss from the sale of the individual life business in 2004. Additionally contributing to
the improvement in net results are the absence of a $22&nbsp;million after-tax increase in insurance
reserves and allowance for uncollectible reinsurance recorded in 2004 related to assumed business
underwritten through a managing general agent, IOA Global, which consists primarily of certain
accident and health exposures (IGI Program) and the absence of a charge recorded in 2004 related to
individual long term care reserve strengthening. Also impacting the 2005 results are the
unfavorable impacts discussed in the three month comparison and the absence of favorable results
from the individual life and specialty medical businesses.

same period in 2004. The increase in revenues was due primarily to reduced net realized investment
losses. Partially offsetting this increase was decreased net investment income due to the
segment&#146;s declining reserve base. See the Investments section of this MD&#038;A for additional
information on net realized investment results.

discussed above and decreased unfavorable net prior year development.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Unfavorable net prior year development of $1&nbsp;million was recorded for the three months ended

reserve development and $1&nbsp;million of unfavorable premium development. Unfavorable net prior year
development of $11&nbsp;million was recorded for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004, including $9

same period in 2004. The decrease in revenues was due primarily to reduced net earned premiums in
CNA Re of $124&nbsp;million due to the exit from the assumed reinsurance business in 2003, decreased net
realized investment results and decreased net investment income as discussed above. Partially
offsetting these decreases was $121&nbsp;million ($79&nbsp;million after-tax) of interest related to a
Federal income tax settlement. See Note F of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements for further discussion. See the Investments section of this MD&#038;A for additional
information on net realized investment results.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As previously disclosed, CNA sold its personal insurance business to Allstate Corporation
(Allstate) in 1999. Under the revised terms of this transaction, Allstate purchased an option
exercisable during 2005 to purchase 100% of the common stock of five CNA subsidiaries at the fair
market value as of the exercise date. Royalty fees earned for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2005 and 2004 for personal insurance policies 100% reinsured with
Allstate were approximately $24 million and $20&nbsp;million. The royalty fee arrangement terminated on September&nbsp;30, 2005.

same period in 2004. The second quarter of 2005 Federal income tax settlement and a release of
Federal income tax reserves increased net income by $115&nbsp;million. This increase was partially
offset by decreased net realized investment results, decreased operating results from CNA Re,
decreased net investment income and increased unfavorable net prior year development. Net realized

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Unfavorable net prior year development was $89&nbsp;million, including $74&nbsp;million of unfavorable net
prior year claim and allocated claim adjustment expense and $15&nbsp;million of unfavorable premium
development, for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005. Unfavorable net prior year development
of $71&nbsp;million, including $58&nbsp;million of
unfavorable claim and allocated claim adjustment expense development and $13&nbsp;million of unfavorable
premium development, was recorded in the same period in 2004.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approximately $56&nbsp;million of unfavorable claim and allocated claim adjustment expense
development recorded in 2005 was a result of a second quarter commutation of a finite reinsurance
contract put in place in 1992. CNA recaptured $400&nbsp;million of losses and received $344&nbsp;million of
cash. The commutation was economically attractive because of the reinsurance agreement&#146;s
contractual interest rate and maintenance charges. Approximately $6&nbsp;million of unfavorable claim
and allocated claim adjustment expense development was related to the corporate aggregate
reinsurance treaties. The unfavorable premium development was driven by $10&nbsp;million of additional
ceded reinsurance premium on agreements where the ceded premium depends on the ceded loss and $4
million of additional premium ceded to the corporate aggregate reinsurance treaties.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The net prior year development recorded for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 relates
to commutation agreements with several members of the Trenwick Group which resulted in unfavorable
net prior year development which was partially offset by a release of a previously established
allowance for uncollectible reinsurance.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries have actual and potential exposures related to
APMT claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Establishing reserves for APMT claim and claim adjustment expenses is subject to uncertainties that
are greater than those presented by other claims. Traditional actuarial methods and techniques
employed to estimate the ultimate cost of claims for more traditional property and casualty
exposures are less precise in estimating claim and claim adjustment expense reserves for APMT,
particularly in an environment of emerging or potential claims and coverage issues that arise from
industry practices and legal, judicial, and social conditions. Therefore, these

MANAGEMENT&#146;S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, Continued</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">traditional
actuarial methods and techniques are necessarily supplemented with additional estimating techniques
and methodologies, many of which involve significant judgments that are required of management.
Accordingly, a high degree of uncertainty remains for the Company&#146;s ultimate liability for APMT
claim and claim adjustment expenses.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition to the difficulties described above, estimating the ultimate cost of both reported and
unreported APMT claims is subject to a higher degree of variability due to a number of additional
factors, including among others: the number and outcome of direct actions against the Company;
coverage issues, including whether certain costs are covered under the policies and whether policy
limits apply; allocation of liability among numerous parties, some of whom may be in bankruptcy
proceedings, and in particular the application of &#147;joint and several&#148; liability to specific
insurers on a risk; inconsistent court decisions and developing legal theories; increasingly
aggressive tactics of plaintiffs&#146; lawyers; the risks and lack of predictability inherent in major
litigation; increased filings of claims in certain states; enactment of national federal
legislation to address asbestos claims; a future increase in asbestos and environmental pollution
claims which cannot now be anticipated; a future increase in number of mass tort claims relating to
silica and silica-containing products, and the outcome of ongoing disputes as to coverage in
relation to these claims; a further increase of claims and claims payments that may exhaust
underlying umbrella and excess coverages at accelerated rates; and future developments pertaining
to the Company&#146;s ability to recover reinsurance for asbestos, pollution and mass tort claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA regularly performs ground up reviews of all open APMT accounts to evaluate the adequacy of the
Company&#146;s APMT reserves. In performing its comprehensive ground up analysis, the Company considers
input from its professionals with direct responsibility for the claims, inside and outside counsel
with responsibility for representation of the Company, and its actuarial staff. These
professionals review, among many factors, the policyholder&#146;s present and predicted future
exposures, including such factors as claims volume, trial conditions, prior settlement history,
settlement demands and defense costs; the impact of asbestos defendant bankruptcies on the
policyholder; the policies issued by CNA, including such factors as aggregate or per occurrence
limits, whether the policy is primary, umbrella or excess and the existence of policyholder
retentions and/or deductibles; the existence of other insurance; and reinsurance arrangements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">With respect to other court cases and how they might affect the Company&#146;s reserves and reasonable
possible losses, the following should be noted. State and federal courts issue numerous decisions
each year, which potentially impact losses and reserves in both a favorable and unfavorable manner.
Examples of favorable developments include decisions to allocate defense and indemnity payments in
a manner so as to limit carriers&#146; obligations to damages taking place during the effective dates of
their policies; decisions holding that injuries occurring after asbestos operations are completed
are subject to the completed operations aggregate limits of the policies; and decisions ruling that
carriers&#146; loss control inspections of their insured&#146;s premises do not give rise to a duty to warn
third parties to the dangers of asbestos.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Examples of unfavorable developments include decisions limiting the application of the absolute
pollution exclusion and decisions holding carriers liable for defense and indemnity of asbestos,
pollution and mass tort claims on a joint and several basis.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s ultimate liability for its environmental pollution and mass tort claims is impacted
by several factors including ongoing disputes with policyholders over scope and meaning of coverage
terms and, in the area of environmental pollution, court decisions that continue to restrict the
scope and applicability of the absolute pollution exclusion contained in policies issued by the
Company. Due to the inherent uncertainties described above, including the inconsistency of court
decisions, the number of waste sites subject to cleanup and in the area of environmental pollution,
the standards for cleanup and liability, the ultimate liability of CNA for environmental pollution
and mass tort claims may vary substantially from the amount currently recorded.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Due to the inherent uncertainties in estimating reserves for APMT claim and claim adjustment
expenses and due to the significant uncertainties previously described related to APMT claims, the
ultimate liability for these cases, both individually and in aggregate, may exceed the recorded
reserves. Any such potential additional liability, or any range of potential additional amounts,
cannot be reasonably estimated currently, but could be material to the Company&#146;s business, results
of operations, equity, and insurer financial strength and debt ratings. Due to, among other
things, the factors described above, it may be necessary for the Company to record material changes
in its

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Asbestos</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA&#146;s property and casualty insurance subsidiaries have exposure to asbestos-related claims.
Estimation of asbestos-related claim and claim adjustment expense reserves involves limitations
such as inconsistency of court decisions, specific policy provisions, allocation of liability among
insurers and insureds and additional factors such as missing policies and proof of coverage.
Furthermore, estimation of asbestos-related claims is difficult due to, among other reasons, the
proliferation of bankruptcy proceedings and attendant uncertainties, the targeting of a broader
range of businesses and entities as defendants, the uncertainty as to which other insureds may be
targeted in the future and the uncertainties inherent in predicting the number of future claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the past several years, CNA has experienced, at certain points in time, significant increases in
claim counts for asbestos-related claims. The factors that led to these increases included, among
other things, intensive advertising campaigns by lawyers for asbestos claimants, mass medical
screening programs sponsored by plaintiff lawyers and the addition of new defendants such as the
distributors and installers of products containing asbestos. During 2004 and continuing in 2005,
the rate of new filings appears to have decreased from the filing rates seen in the past several
years. Various challenges to mass screening claimants have been mounted. Nevertheless, the
Company continues to experience an overall increase in total asbestos claim counts. The majority
of asbestos bodily injury claims are filed by persons exhibiting few, if any, disease symptoms.
Recent studies have concluded that the percentage of unimpaired claimants to total claimants ranges
between 66% and up to 90%. Some courts, including the federal district court responsible for
pre-trial proceedings in all federal asbestos bodily injury actions, have ordered that so-called
&#147;unimpaired&#148; claimants may not recover unless at some point the claimant&#146;s condition worsens to the
point of impairment. Some plaintiffs classified as &#147;unimpaired&#148; have challenged those orders.
Therefore, the ultimate impact of the orders on future asbestos claims remains uncertain.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Several factors are, in management&#146;s view, negatively impacting asbestos claim trends. Plaintiff
attorneys who previously sued entities who are now bankrupt are seeking other viable targets. As a
result, companies with few or no previous asbestos claims are becoming targets in asbestos
litigation and, although they may have little or no liability, nevertheless must be defended.
Additionally, plaintiff attorneys and trustees for future claimants are demanding that policy
limits be paid lump-sum into the bankruptcy asbestos trusts prior to presentation of valid claims
and medical proof of these claims. Various challenges to these practices are currently in
litigation and the ultimate impact or success of these tactics remains uncertain. Plaintiff
attorneys and trustees for future claimants are also attempting to devise claims payment procedures
for bankruptcy trusts that would allow asbestos claims to be paid under lax standards for injury,
exposure and causation. This also presents the potential for exhausting policy limits in an
accelerated fashion.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a result of bankruptcies and insolvencies, management has observed an increase in the total
number of policyholders with current asbestos claims as additional defendants are added to existing
lawsuits and are named in new asbestos bodily injury lawsuits. New asbestos bodily injury claims
have also increased substantially in 2003, but the rate of increase has moderated in 2004 and
continues to moderate in 2005.

MANAGEMENT&#146;S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, Continued</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA carried approximately $1,579&nbsp;million and $1,686
million of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables, for
reported and unreported asbestos-related claims. The Company recorded $8&nbsp;million and $44&nbsp;million
of unfavorable asbestos-related net claim and claim adjustment expense reserve development for the
nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004. The unfavorable net prior year development for the
nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004 was primarily related to
a commutation. The Company paid asbestos-related claims, net of reinsurance recoveries, of $115
million and $104&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has resolved a number of its large asbestos accounts by negotiating settlement
agreements. Structured settlement agreements provide for payments over multiple years as set forth
in each individual agreement. At September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had 13 structured settlement agreements
with a reserve, net of reinsurance, of $158&nbsp;million. At December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA had 11 structured
settlement agreements with a reserve, net of reinsurance, of $175&nbsp;million. As to the 13 structured
settlement agreements existing at September&nbsp;30, 2005, payment obligations under those settlement
agreements are projected to terminate by 2016.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 1985, 47 asbestos producers and their insurers, including CIC, executed the Wellington
Agreement. The agreement intended to resolve all issues and litigation related to coverage for
asbestos exposures. Under this agreement, signatory insurers committed scheduled policy limits and
made the limits available to pay asbestos claims based upon coverage blocks designated by the
policyholders in 1985, subject to extension by policyholders. CIC was a signatory insurer to the
Wellington Agreement. At September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had obligations for four accounts. With respect
to these four remaining unpaid Wellington obligations, CNA has evaluated its exposure and the
expected reinsurance recoveries under these agreements and has a recorded reserve of $16&nbsp;million,
net of reinsurance. At December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA had fulfilled its Wellington Agreement obligations
as to all but four accounts and had a recorded reserve of $17&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has also used coverage in place agreements to resolve large asbestos exposures. Coverage in
place agreements are typically agreements between CNA and its policyholders identifying the
policies and the terms for payment of asbestos related liabilities. Claims payments are contingent
on presentation of adequate documentation showing exposure during the policy periods and other
documentation supporting the demand for claims payment. Coverage in place agreements may have
annual payment caps. Coverage in place agreements are evaluated based on claims filings trends and
severities. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had negotiated 34 coverage in place agreements. The
Company has evaluated these commitments and the expected reinsurance recoveries under these
agreements and has recorded a reserve of $70&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance as of September&nbsp;30, 2005.
As of December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA had negotiated 33 coverage in place agreements. The Company had
evaluated these commitments and the expected reinsurance recoveries under these agreements and had
recorded a reserve of $76&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance, as of December&nbsp;31, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company categorizes active asbestos accounts as large or small accounts. CNA defines a large
account as an active account with more than $100,000 of cumulative paid losses. The Company has
made closing large accounts a significant management priority. At September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had 201
large accounts with reserves of $339&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance. At December&nbsp;31, 2004, the
Company had 180 large accounts and had established reserves of $368&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance.
Small accounts are defined as active accounts with $100,000 or less cumulative paid losses. At
September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had 1,082 small accounts, approximately 81% of its total active asbestos
accounts, with reserves of $113&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance. At December&nbsp;31, 2004, the Company had
1,109 small accounts, approximately 83% of its total active asbestos accounts, with reserves of
$141&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance. Small accounts are typically representative of policyholders
with limited connection to asbestos. As entities which were historic targets in asbestos
litigation continue to file for bankruptcy protection, plaintiffs&#146; attorneys are seeking other
viable targets. As a result, companies with few or no previous asbestos claims are becoming
targets in asbestos litigation and nevertheless must be defended by CNA under its policies.
Bankruptcy filings and increased claims filings in the last few years could potentially increase
costs incurred in defending small accounts.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company also evaluates its asbestos liabilities arising from its assumed reinsurance business
and its participation in various pools. At September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA had $145
million and $148&nbsp;million of reserves, net of reinsurance, related to these asbestos liabilities
arising from the Company&#146;s assumed

MANAGEMENT&#146;S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, Continued</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Some asbestos-related defendants have asserted that their insurance policies are not subject
to aggregate limits on coverage. CNA has such claims from a number of insureds. Some of these
claims involve insureds facing exhaustion of products liability aggregate limits in their policies,
who have asserted that their asbestos-related claims fall within so-called &#147;non-products&#148; liability
coverage contained within their policies rather than products liability coverage, and that the
claimed &#147;non-products&#148; coverage is not subject to any aggregate limit. It is difficult to predict
the ultimate size of any of the claims for coverage purportedly not subject to aggregate limits or
predict to what extent, if any, the attempts to assert &#147;non-products&#148; claims outside the products
liability aggregate will succeed. The Company&#146;s policies also contain other limits applicable to
these claims, and the Company has additional coverage defenses to certain claims. The Company has
attempted to manage its asbestos exposure by aggressively seeking to settle claims on acceptable
terms. There can be no assurance that any of these settlement efforts will be successful, or that
any such claims can be settled on terms acceptable to CNA. Where CNA cannot settle a claim on
acceptable terms, the Company aggressively litigates the claim. A recent court ruling by the
United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has supported certain of the Company&#146;s
positions with respect to coverage for &#147;non-products&#148;
claims. However, adverse developments with respect to such matters could have a material adverse
effect on CNA&#146;s results of operations and/or equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Certain asbestos litigation in which CNA is currently engaged is described below:
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The ultimate cost of reported claims, and in particular APMT claims, is subject to a number of
uncertainties, including future developments of various kinds that CNA does not control and that
are difficult or impossible to foresee accurately. With respect to the litigation identified below
in particular, numerous factual and legal issues remain unresolved. Rulings on those issues by the
courts are critical to the evaluation of the ultimate cost to the Company. The outcome of the
litigation cannot be predicted with any reliability. Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any
amounts that may be accrued are not readily determinable at this time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On February&nbsp;13, 2003, CNA announced it had resolved asbestos related coverage litigation and claims
involving A.P. Green Industries, A.P. Green Services and Bigelow &#150; Liptak Corporation. Under the
agreement, CNA is required to pay $74&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance recoveries, over a ten year
period commencing after the final approval of a bankruptcy plan of reorganization. The settlement
resolves CNA&#146;s liabilities for all pending and future asbestos claims involving A.P. Green
Industries, Bigelow &#150; Liptak Corporation and related subsidiaries, including alleged
&#147;non-products&#148; exposures. The settlement received initial bankruptcy court approval on August&nbsp;18,
2003 and CNA expects to procure confirmation of a bankruptcy plan containing an injunction to
protect CNA from any future claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA is engaged in insurance coverage litigation in New York State Court, filed in 2003, with a
defendant class of underlying plaintiffs who have asbestos bodily injury claims against the former
Robert A. Keasbey Company (Keasbey) (<U>Continental Casualty Co. v. Employers Ins. of Wausau et
al.</U>, No.&nbsp;601037/03 (N.Y. County)). Keasbey, a currently dissolved corporation, was a seller and
installer of asbestos-containing insulation products in New York and New Jersey. Thousands of
plaintiffs have filed bodily injury claims against Keasbey; however, Keasbey&#146;s involvement at a
number of work sites is a highly contested issue. Therefore, the defense disputes the percentage
of valid claims against Keasbey. CNA issued Keasbey primary policies for 1970-1987 and excess
policies for 1972-1978. CNA has paid an amount substantially equal to the policies&#146; aggregate
limits for products and completed operations claims in the confirmed CNA policies. Claimants
against Keasbey allege, among other things, that CNA owes coverage under sections of the policies
not subject to the aggregate limits, an allegation CNA vigorously contests in the lawsuit. In the
litigation, CNA and the claimants seek declaratory relief as to the interpretation of various
policy provisions. The court dismissed a claim alleging bad faith and seeking unspecified damages
on March&nbsp;21, 2004; that ruling was affirmed on March&nbsp;31, 2005 by Appellate Division, First
Department. The trial in the <U>Keasbey</U> coverage action continues. It is unclear when the
Company will have a decision from the trial court. With respect to this litigation in particular,
numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final result, the
outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include, among others:
(a)&nbsp;whether the Company has any further responsibility to compensate claimants against Keasbey
under its policies and, if so, under which policies; (b)&nbsp;whether the Company&#146;s responsibilities
extend to a particular claimant&#146;s entire claim or only to a limited percentage of the claim; (c)
whether the Company&#146;s responsibilities under its policies are limited by the occurrence limits or
other provisions of the policies; (d)&nbsp;whether certain exclusions in some of the policies apply to
exclude certain claims; (e)&nbsp;the extent to which claimants can establish exposures to asbestos
materials as to which Keasbey has any responsibility; (f)&nbsp;the legal theories which must be

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has insurance coverage disputes related to asbestos bodily injury claims against Burns &#038; Roe
Enterprises, Inc. (Burns &#038; Roe). Originally raised in litigation, now stayed, these disputes are
currently part of <U>In re: Burns &#038; Roe Enterprises, Inc.</U>, pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of New Jersey, No.&nbsp;00-41610. Burns &#038; Roe provided engineering and related
services in connection with construction projects. At the time of its bankruptcy filing, on
December&nbsp;4, 2000, Burns &#038; Roe faced approximately 11,000 claims alleging bodily injury resulting
from exposure to asbestos as a result of construction projects in which Burns &#038; Roe was involved.
CNA allegedly provided primary liability coverage to Burns &#038; Roe from 1956-1969 and 1971-1974,
along with certain project-specific policies from 1964-1970. The parties in the litigation are
seeking a declaration of the scope and extent of coverage, if any, afforded to Burns &#038; Roe for its
asbestos liabilities. The litigation has been stayed since May&nbsp;14, 2003 pending resolution of the
bankruptcy proceedings. A confirmation hearing in the bankruptcy proceeding has been scheduled for
April, 2006. With respect to the Burns &#038; Roe litigation and the pending bankruptcy proceeding,
numerous unresolved factual and legal issues will impact the ultimate exposure to the Company. With
respect to this litigation, numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are
critical to the final result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These
factors include, among others: (a)&nbsp;whether the Company has any further responsibility to
compensate claimants against Burns &#038; Roe under its policies and, if so, under which; (b)&nbsp;whether
the Company&#146;s responsibilities under its policies extend to a particular claimants&#146; entire claim or
only to a limited percentage of the claim; (c)&nbsp;whether the Company&#146;s responsibilities under its
policies are limited by the occurrence limits or other provisions of the policies; (d)&nbsp;whether
certain exclusions, including professional liability exclusions, in some of the Company&#146;s policies
apply to exclude certain claims; (e)&nbsp;the extent to which claimants can establish exposures to
asbestos materials as to which Burns &#038; Roe has any responsibility; (f)&nbsp;the legal theories which
must be pursued by such claimants to establish the liability of Burns &#038; Roe and whether such
theories can, in fact, be established; (g)&nbsp;the diseases and damages claimed by such claimants; (h)
the extent that any liability of Burns &#038; Roe would be shared with other potentially responsible
parties; and (i)&nbsp;the impact of bankruptcy proceedings on claims and coverage issue resolution.
Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any amounts that may be accrued are not readily
determinable at this time.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CIC issued certain primary and excess policies to Bendix Corporation (Bendix), now part of
Honeywell International, Inc. (Honeywell). Honeywell faces approximately 77,708 pending asbestos
bodily injury claims resulting from alleged exposure to Bendix friction products. CIC&#146;s primary
policies allegedly covered the period from at least 1939 (when Bendix began to use asbestos in its
friction products) to 1983, although the parties disagree about whether CIC&#146;s policies provided
product liability coverage before 1940 and from 1945 to 1956. CIC asserts that it owes no further
material obligations to Bendix under any primary policy. Honeywell alleges that two primary
policies issued by CIC covering 1969-1975 contain occurrence limits but not product liability
aggregate limits for asbestos bodily injury claims. CIC has asserted, among other things, even if
Honeywell&#146;s allegation is correct, which CNA denies, its liability is limited to a single
occurrence limit per policy or per year, and in the alternative, a proper allocation of losses
would substantially limit its exposure under the 1969-1975 policies to asbestos claims. These and
other issues are being litigated in <U>Continental Insurance Co., et al. v. Honeywell
International Inc.</U>, No.&nbsp;MRS-L-1523-00 (Morris County, New Jersey) which was filed on May&nbsp;15,
2000. In the litigation, the parties are seeking declaratory relief of the scope and extent of
coverage, if any, afforded to Bendix under the policies issued by the Company. With respect to this
litigation, numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final
result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include, among
others: (a)&nbsp;whether certain of the primary policies issued by the Company contain aggregate limits
of liability; (b)&nbsp;whether the Company&#146;s responsibilities under its policies extend to a particular
claimants&#146; entire claim or only to a limited percentage of the claim; (c)&nbsp;whether the Company&#146;s
responsibilities under its policies are limited by the occurrence limits or other provisions of the
policies; (d)&nbsp;whether some of the claims against Bendix arise out of events which took place after
expiration of the Company&#146;s policies; (e)&nbsp;the extent to which claimants can establish exposures to
asbestos materials as to which Bendix has any responsibility; (f)&nbsp;the legal theories which must be
pursued by such claimants to establish the liability of Bendix and whether such theories can, in
fact, be established; (g)&nbsp;the diseases and damages claimed by such claimants; (h)&nbsp;the extent that
any liability of Bendix would be shared with other responsible parties; and (i)&nbsp;whether Bendix is

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Suits have also been initiated directly against two CNA companies and other insurers in four
jurisdictions: Ohio, Texas, West Virginia and Montana. In the approximately 75 Ohio actions,
plaintiffs allege that the defendants negligently performed duties undertaken to protect workers
and the public from the effects of asbestos, spoliated evidence and conspired and acted in concert
to harm the plaintiffs. (E.g., <U>Varner v. Ford Motor Co.,</U> (Ohio Ct. Common Pl., filed June
12, 2003); <U>Peplowski v. ACE American Ins. Co.</U> (N.D. Ohio, filed April&nbsp;1, 2004), and
<U>Cross v. Garlock</U>, Inc., (Ohio Ct. Common Pl., filed September&nbsp;1, 2004)). The Cuyahoga
County court granted insurers, including CNA, dismissals against an initial group of plaintiffs,
ruling that insurers had no duty to warn plaintiffs about the dangers of asbestos and that there
was no basis for spoliation, conspiracy and concert of action claims. That ruling was recently
affirmed on appeal. <U>Budd v. Am. Std., Inc., No.&nbsp;84829</U> (Ohio Ct. App. May&nbsp;26, 2005). The
Cuyahoga County court has continued to dismiss substantially similar types of complaints and
plaintiffs have either failed to appeal the dismissals or have voluntarily dismissed their appeals.
Nonetheless, plaintiffs continue to file additional similar suits. With respect to this litigation
in particular, numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the
final result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include:
(a)&nbsp;the speculative nature and unclear scope of any alleged duties owed to individuals exposed to
asbestos and the resulting uncertainty as to the potential pool of potential claimants; (b)&nbsp;the
fact that imposing such
duties on all insurer and non-insurer corporate defendants would be unprecedented and, therefore,
the legal boundaries of recovery are difficult to estimate; (c)&nbsp;the fact that many of the claims
brought to date may be barred by various Statutes of Limitation and it is unclear whether future
claims would also be barred; (d)&nbsp;the unclear nature of the required nexus between the acts of the
defendants and the right of any particular claimant to recovery; and (e)&nbsp;the existence of hundreds
of co-defendants in some of the suits and the applicability of the legal theories pled by the
claimants to thousands of potential defendants. Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any
amounts that may be accrued are not readily determinable at this time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Similar lawsuits were filed in Texas beginning in 2002 against two CNA companies and numerous other
insurers and non-insurer corporate defendants asserting liability for failing to warn of the
dangers of asbestos (E.g. <U>Boson v. Union Carbide Corp.,</U> (Nueces County, Texas)). During
2003, many of the Texas suits were dismissed as time-barred by the applicable Statute of
Limitations. In other suits, the carriers argued that they did not owe any duty to the plaintiffs
or the general public to advise the world generally or the plaintiffs particularly of the effects
of asbestos and that Texas statutes precluded liability for such claims, and the Texas courts
dismissed these suits. Certain of the Texas courts&#146; rulings were appealed, but plaintiffs later
dismissed their appeals. Recently, a different Texas court denied similar motions seeking dismissal
at the pleading stage, allowing limited discovery to proceed. With respect to this litigation in
particular, numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final
result, the outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include: (a)
the speculative nature and unclear scope of any alleged duties owed to individuals exposed to
asbestos and the resulting uncertainty as to the potential pool of potential claimants; (b)&nbsp;the
fact that imposing such duties on all insurer and non-insurer corporate defendants would be

that the defendants violated West Virginia&#146;s Unfair Trade Practices Act (&#147;UTPA&#148;) in handling and
resolving asbestos claims against five specifically named asbestos defendants. The Adams
litigation had been stayed pending a planned motion by plaintiffs to file an amended complaint that
reflected two June&nbsp;2004 decisions of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals. In June&nbsp;2005, the
court presiding over Adams and three similar putative class actions against other insurers, on its
own motion, directed plaintiffs to file any amended complaints by June&nbsp;13, 2005 and directed the
parties to agree upon a case management order that would result in trial being commenced by July
2006. Plaintiffs&#146; Amended Complaint greatly expands the scope of the action against the insurers,

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">handling and resolving asbestos personal
injury or wrongful death claims in the West Virginia courts against all their insureds if those
claims were resolved before June&nbsp;30, 2001. CCC, along with other insurer defendants, removed the
Adams case to Federal court, <U>Adams v. Ins. Co. of North America (INA), et al.</U> (S.D. W. Va.
No.&nbsp;2:05-CV-0527). A motion by plaintiffs to remand the case to state court is pending. Numerous
factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final result in Adams, the
outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These issues include: (a)&nbsp;the legal
sufficiency of the novel statutory claims pled by the claimants; (b)&nbsp;the applicability of
claimants&#146; legal theories to insurers who issued excess policies and/ or neither defended nor
controlled the defense of certain policyholders; (c)&nbsp;the possibility that certain of the claims are
barred by various statutes of limitation; (d)&nbsp;the fact that the imposition of duties would
interfere with the attorney-client privilege and the contractual rights and responsibilities of the
parties to the Company&#146;s insurance policies; (e)&nbsp;whether plaintiffs&#146; claims are barred in whole or
in part by injunctions that have been issued by bankruptcy courts that are overseeing, or that have
overseen, the bankruptcies of various insureds; (f)&nbsp;whether some or all of the named plaintiffs or
members of the plaintiff class have released CCC from the claims alleged in the Amended Complaint
when they resolved their underlying asbestos claims; (g)&nbsp;the appropriateness of the case for class
action treatment; and (h)&nbsp;the potential and relative magnitude of liabilities of co-defendants.
Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any amounts that may be accrued are not readily
determinable at this time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On March&nbsp;22, 2002, a direct action was filed in Montana (<U>Pennock, et al. v. Maryland Casualty,
et al.</U> First Judicial District Court of Lewis &#038; Clark County, Montana) by eight individual
plaintiffs (all employees of W.R. Grace &#038; Co. (W.R. Grace)) and their spouses against CNA, Maryland
Casualty and the State of Montana. This action alleges
that the carriers failed to warn of or otherwise protect W.R. Grace employees from the dangers of
asbestos at a W.R. Grace vermiculite mining facility in Libby, Montana. The Montana direct action
is currently stayed because of W.R. Grace&#146;s pending bankruptcy. With respect to such claims,
numerous factual and legal issues remain to be resolved that are critical to the final result, the
outcome of which cannot be predicted with any reliability. These factors include: (a)&nbsp;the unclear
nature and scope of any alleged duties owed to people exposed to asbestos and the resulting
uncertainty as to the potential pool of potential claimants; (b)&nbsp;the potential application of
Statutes of Limitation to many of the claims which may be made depending on the nature and scope of
the alleged duties; (c)&nbsp;the unclear nature of the required nexus between the acts of the defendants
and the right of any particular claimant to recovery; (d)&nbsp;the diseases and damages claimed by such
claimants; (e)&nbsp;and the extent that such liability would be shared with other potentially
responsible parties; and (f)&nbsp;the impact of bankruptcy proceedings on claims resolution.
Accordingly, the extent of losses beyond any amounts that may be accrued are not readily
determinable at this time.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA is vigorously defending these and other cases and believes that it has meritorious defenses to
the claims asserted. However, there are numerous factual and legal issues to be resolved in
connection with these claims, and it is extremely difficult to predict the outcome or ultimate
financial exposure represented by these matters. Adverse developments with respect to any of these
matters could have a material adverse effect on CNA&#146;s business, insurer financial strength and debt
ratings and results of operations and/or equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a result of the uncertainties and complexities involved, reserves for asbestos claims cannot be
estimated with traditional actuarial techniques that rely on historical accident year loss
development factors. In establishing asbestos reserves, CNA evaluates the exposure presented by
each insured. As part of this evaluation, CNA considers the available insurance coverage; limits
and deductibles; the potential role of other insurance, particularly underlying coverage below any
CNA excess liability policies; and applicable coverage defenses, including asbestos exclusions.
Estimation of asbestos-related claim and claim adjustment expense reserves involves a high degree
of judgment on the part of management and consideration of many complex factors, including:

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is also monitoring possible legislative reforms on the state and national level,
including possible federal legislation to create a national privately financed trust financed by
contributions from insurers such as CNA, industrial companies and others, which if established,
could replace litigation of asbestos claims with payments to claimants from the trust. It is
uncertain at the present time whether such legislation will be enacted or, if it is, its impact on
the Company.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Environmental Pollution and Mass Tort</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Environmental pollution cleanup is the subject of both federal and state regulation. By some
estimates, there are thousands of potential waste sites subject to cleanup. The insurance industry
is involved in extensive litigation regarding coverage issues. Judicial interpretations in many
cases have expanded the scope of coverage and liability beyond the original intent of the policies.
The Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (Superfund) and
comparable state statutes (mini-Superfunds) govern the cleanup and restoration of toxic waste sites
and formalize the concept of legal liability for cleanup and restoration by &#147;Potentially
Responsible Parties&#148; (PRPs). Superfund and the mini-Superfunds establish mechanisms to pay for
cleanup of waste sites if PRPs fail to do so and assign liability to PRPs. The extent of liability
to be allocated to a PRP is dependent upon a variety of factors. Further, the number of waste
sites subject to cleanup is unknown. To date, approximately 1,500 cleanup sites have been
identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)&nbsp;and included on its National Priorities
List (NPL). State authorities have designated many cleanup sites as well.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Many policyholders have made claims against various CNA insurance subsidiaries for defense costs
and indemnification in connection with environmental pollution matters. The vast majority of these
claims relate to accident years 1989 and prior, which coincides with CNA&#146;s adoption of the
Simplified Commercial General Liability coverage form, which includes what is referred to in the
industry as an absolute pollution exclusion. CNA and the insurance industry are disputing coverage
for many such claims. Key coverage issues include whether cleanup costs are considered damages
under the policies, trigger of coverage, allocation of liability among triggered policies,
applicability of pollution exclusions and owned property exclusions, the potential for joint and
several liability and the definition of an occurrence. To date, courts have been inconsistent in
their rulings on these issues.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA carried approximately $402&nbsp;million and $497
million of claim and claim adjustment expense reserves, net of reinsurance recoverables, for
reported and unreported environmental pollution and mass tort claims. There was $3&nbsp;million of
environmental pollution and mass tort net

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">claim and claim adjustment expense reserve development
recorded for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005. No development was recorded for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004. The Company recorded $15&nbsp;million and $10&nbsp;million of current
accident year losses related to mass tort for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.
The Company paid environmental pollution-related claims and mass tort-related claims, net of
reinsurance recoveries, of $113&nbsp;million and $79&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2005 and 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has made resolution of large environmental pollution exposures a management priority. The
Company has resolved a number of its large environmental accounts by negotiating settlement
agreements. In its settlements, CNA sought to resolve those exposures and obtain the broadest
release language to avoid future claims from the same policyholders seeking coverage for sites or
claims that had not emerged at the time CNA settled with its policyholder. While the terms of each
settlement agreement vary, CNA sought to obtain broad environmental releases that include known and
unknown sites, claims and policies. The broad scope of the release provisions contained in those
settlement agreements should, in many cases, prevent future exposure from settled policyholders.
It remains uncertain, however, whether a court interpreting the language of the settlement
agreements will adhere to the intent of the parties and uphold the broad scope of language of the
agreements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In 2003, CNA observed a marked increase in silica claims frequency in Mississippi, where plaintiff
attorneys appear to have filed claims to avoid the effect of tort reform. In 2004, silica claims
frequency in Mississippi has moderated notably due to implementation of tort reform measures and
favorable court decisions. To date, the most significant silica exposures identified included a
relatively small number of accounts with significant numbers of new claims reported in 2003 and
that continued at a far lesser rate in 2004 and 2005. Establishing claim and claim adjustment
expense reserves for silica claims is subject to uncertainties because of disputes concerning
medical causation with respect to certain diseases, including lung cancer, geographical
concentration of the lawsuits asserting the claims, and the large rise in the total number of
claims without underlying epidemiological developments suggesting an increase in disease rates or
plaintiffs. Moreover, judicial interpretations regarding application of various tort defenses,
including application of various theories of joint and several liabilities, impede the Company&#146;s
ability to estimate its ultimate liability for such claims.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company classifies its environmental pollution accounts into several categories, which include
structured settlements, coverage in place agreements and active accounts. Structured settlement
agreements provide for payments over multiple years as set forth in each individual agreement. At
September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had five structured settlement agreements with its policyholders for which
it had future payment obligations with a recorded reserve of $7&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance. At
December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA had two structured settlement agreements
and has established reserves of $5&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance, to fund future payment obligations
under the agreements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA has also used coverage in place agreements to resolve pollution exposures. Coverage in place
agreements are typically agreements between CNA and its policyholders identifying the policies and
the terms for payment of pollution related liabilities. Claims payments are contingent on
presentation of adequate documentation of damages during the policy periods and other documentation
supporting the demand for claims payment. Coverage in place agreements may have annual payment
caps. At September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had 18 such agreements with a recorded reserve of $17&nbsp;million,
net of reinsurance. At December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA had negotiated 15 coverage in place agreements and
had established a reserve of $16&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company categorizes active accounts as large or small accounts in the pollution area. CNA
defines a large account as an active account with more than $100,000 cumulative paid losses. At
September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had 124 large accounts with a collective reserve of $66&nbsp;million, net of
reinsurance. At December&nbsp;31, 2004, the Company had 134 large accounts with a collective reserve of
$75&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance. The Company has made closing large accounts a significant
management priority. Small accounts are defined as active accounts with $100,000 or less
cumulative paid losses. At September&nbsp;30, 2005, CNA had 372 small accounts with a collective
reserve of $43&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance. At December&nbsp;31, 2004, CNA had 405 small accounts with
a collective reserve of $47&nbsp;million, net of reinsurance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company also evaluates its environmental pollution exposures arising from its assumed
reinsurance and its participation in various pools, including ECRA. CNA had reserves of $34
million and $36&nbsp;million related to these liabilities as of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31,
2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">(a)&nbsp;The change in net unrealized gains (losses)&nbsp;on trading securities, included in net
investment income, was $3&nbsp;million and $(4) million for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2005 and $(4) million and $(2) million for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net investment income increased by $140&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005
compared with the same period of 2004. This increase was due primarily to improved investment
income from the trading portfolio, limited partnerships and short term investments which reflects
the improved period over period returns within the sector. The improved income from the trading
portfolio was largely offset by a corresponding increase in the policyholders&#146; funds reserves
supported by the trading portfolio.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company earned higher net investment income for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005
compared with the same period of 2004. This increase was due primarily to improved short term and
limited partnership results in addition to reduced interest expense on funds withheld and other
deposits. See the Reinsurance section of the MD&#038;A regarding additional information about interest
costs on funds withheld and other deposits.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The bond segment of the investment portfolio yielded 4.8% and 4.7% for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net realized investment gains were $42&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005
as compared to net realized investment losses of $42&nbsp;million for the three months ended September
30, 2004. The increase in net realized gains was primarily driven by favorable results in
derivative securities and improved results in corporate and other taxable bonds, partially offset
by less favorable results from tax-exempt bonds. Impairment losses of $11&nbsp;million after-tax and
$12&nbsp;million after-tax were recorded for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and September&nbsp;30,
2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net realized investment gains were $44&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 as
compared to net realized investment losses of $257&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2004. The improvement in the net realized investment results was due primarily to a $389&nbsp;million
after-tax loss on the sale of the individual life insurance business in 2004. This improvement was
partially offset by reduced gains for equities securities, which was largely attributable to the
2004 gain of $105&nbsp;million after-tax on the disposition of Canary Wharf. Impairment losses of $46
million after-tax were recorded for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 across various
sectors, including an impairment loss of $22&nbsp;million after-tax related to loans made under a credit
facility to a national contractor. See Note P for further details. Impairment losses were $13
million after-tax for other-than-temporary declines in fair value for fixed maturity and equity
securities for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A primary objective in the management of the fixed maturity and equity portfolios is to maximize
total return relative to underlying liabilities and respective liquidity needs. The Company&#146;s
views on the current interest rate environment, tax regulations, asset class valuations, specific
security issuer and broader industry segment conditions and the domestic and global economic
conditions are some of the factors that may enter into a decision to move between asset classes.
Based on the Company&#146;s consideration of these factors, in the course of normal investment activity
the Company may, in pursuit of the total return objective, be willing to sell securities that, in
its analysis, are overvalued on a risk adjusted basis relative to other opportunities that are
available at the time in the market; in turn the Company may purchase other securities that,
according to its analysis, are undervalued in relation to other

making these value decisions, securities may be bought and sold that shift the investment portfolio
between asset classes. The Company also continually monitors exposure to issuers of
securities held and broader industry sector exposures and may from time to time reduce such
exposures based on its views of a specific issuer or industry sector. These activities will
produce realized gains or losses.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The investment portfolio is periodically analyzed for changes in duration and related price change
risk. Additionally, the Company periodically reviews the sensitivity of the portfolio to the level
of foreign exchange rates and other factors that contribute to market price changes. A summary of
these risks and specific analysis on changes is included in Item&nbsp;3 &#150; Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Market Risks included herein. Under certain economic conditions, including but
not limited to a changing interest rate environment, the Company may hedge the value of the
investment portfolio by utilizing derivative strategies.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A further consideration in the management of the investment portfolio is the characteristics of the
underlying liabilities and the ability to align the duration of the portfolio to those liabilities
to meet future liquidity needs, minimize interest rate risk and maintain a level of income
sufficient to support the underlying insurance liabilities. For portfolios where future liability
cash flows are determinable and long term in nature, the Company segregates assets for asset
liability management purposes.

securities as either available-for-sale or trading, and as such, they are carried at fair value.
The amortized cost of fixed maturity securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and

value related to available-for-sale securities are reported as a component of other comprehensive

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s investment policies for both the general account and separate account emphasize
high credit quality and diversification by industry, issuer and issue. Assets supporting interest
rate sensitive liabilities are segmented within the general account to facilitate asset/liability
duration management.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At September&nbsp;30, 2005, the carrying value of the general account fixed maturities was $32,429
million, representing 78% of the total investment portfolio. The net unrealized position
associated with the fixed maturity portfolio included $288&nbsp;million in gross unrealized losses
consisting of municipal securities which represented 17%, corporate bonds which represented 29%,
asset-backed securities which represented 40%, and all other fixed maturity securities which
represented 14%. Within corporate bonds, the largest industry sectors were consumer cyclical and
financial, which represented 31% and 21% of the gross unrealized losses. Gross unrealized losses
in any single issuer were less than 0.1% of the carrying value of the total general account fixed
maturity portfolio.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A significant judgment in the valuation of investments is the determination of when an
other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred. The Company follows a consistent and
systematic process for impairing securities that sustain other-than-temporary declines in value.
The Company has established a committee responsible for the impairment process. This committee,
referred to as the Impairment Committee, is made up of three officers appointed by the Company&#146;s
Chief Financial Officer. The Impairment Committee is responsible for analyzing watch list
securities on at least a quarterly basis. The watch list includes individual securities that fall
below certain thresholds or that exhibit evidence of impairment indicators including, but not
limited to, a significant adverse change in the financial condition and near term prospects of the
investment or a significant adverse change in legal factors, the business climate or credit
ratings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">When a security is placed on the watch list, it is monitored for further fair value changes and
additional news related to the issuer&#146;s financial condition. The focus is on objective evidence
that may influence the evaluation of impairment factors.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The decision to impair a security incorporates both quantitative criteria and qualitative
information. The Impairment Committee considers a number of factors including, but not limited to:
(a)&nbsp;the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than book value, (b)
the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (c)&nbsp;the intent and ability of the
Company to retain its investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated
recovery in value, (d)&nbsp;whether the debtor is current on interest and principal payments and (e)
general market conditions and industry or sector specific factors.

MANAGEMENT&#146;S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, Continued</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Impairment Committee&#146;s decision to impair a security is primarily based on whether the
security&#146;s fair value is likely to remain significantly below its book value in light of all of the
factors considered. For securities that are
impaired, the security is written down to fair value and the resulting losses are recognized in
realized gains/losses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s non-investment grade fixed maturity securities available-for-sale as of September&nbsp;30,
2005 that were in a gross unrealized loss position had a fair value of $921&nbsp;million. As discussed
previously, a significant judgment in the valuation of investments is the determination of when an
other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. The Company&#146;s Impairment Committee analyzes
securities placed on the watch list on at least a quarterly basis. Part of this analysis is to
monitor the length of time and severity of the decline below book value of the watch list
securities. The following tables summarize the fair value and gross unrealized loss of
non-investment grade securities categorized by the length of time those securities have been in a
continuous unrealized loss position and further categorized by the severity of the unrealized loss
position in 10% increments as of September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As part of the ongoing impairment monitoring process, the Impairment Committee has evaluated
the facts and circumstances based on available information for each of the non-investment grade
securities and determined that no further impairments were appropriate at September&nbsp;30, 2005. This
determination was based on a number of factors that the Impairment Committee regularly considers
including, but not limited to: the issuers&#146; ability to meet current and future interest and
principal payments, an evaluation of the issuers&#146; financial condition and near term prospects, the
Company&#146;s sector outlook and estimates of the fair value of any underlying collateral. In all
cases where a decline in value is judged to be temporary, the Company has the intent and ability to
hold these securities for a period of time sufficient to recover the book value of its investment
through a recovery in the fair value of such securities or by holding the securities to maturity.
In many cases, the securities held are matched to liabilities as part of ongoing asset/liability
duration management. As such, the Impairment Committee continually assesses its ability to hold
securities for a time sufficient to recover any temporary loss in value or until maturity. The
Company maintains sufficient levels of liquidity so as to not impact the asset/liability management
process.

account portfolio was U.S. Government and affiliated agency securities or was rated by Standard &#038;
Poor&#146;s (S&#038;P) or Moody&#146;s Investors Service (Moody&#146;s). The remaining bonds were rated by other
rating agencies or Company management.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Non-investment grade bonds, as presented in the table above, are high-yield securities rated below
BBB by bond rating agencies, as well as other unrated securities that, in the opinion of
management, are below investment-grade. High-yield securities generally involve a greater degree
of risk than investment-grade securities. However, expected returns should compensate for the
added risk. This risk is also considered in the interest rate assumptions for the underlying
insurance products.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The carrying value of non-traded securities at September&nbsp;30, 2005 was $109&nbsp;million which represents
0.3% of the Company&#146;s total investment portfolio. These securities were in a net unrealized gain
position of $72&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30, 2005. Of the non-traded securities, 53% are priced by
unrelated third party sources.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Included in CNA&#146;s general account fixed maturity securities at September&nbsp;30, 2005 were $10,651

collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), 20% in corporate asset-backed obligations, 18% in
corporate mortgage-backed pass-through certificates, and 3% in U.S. Government agency issued
pass-through certificates. The CMOs held are actively traded in liquid markets and are priced by
broker-dealers.

provided by operating activities related primarily to decreased net premium collections, partially
offset by a reduction in claims and expense payments in 2005 as compared with 2004. The decrease
in net premium collections is primarily due to the sale of the individual life business. Also
impacting operating cash flows were net tax payments of $289&nbsp;million in 2005 as compared with net
tax refunds of $534&nbsp;million in 2004. In addition, the Company received cash of $344&nbsp;million in 2005

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Regulatory Matters</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has established a plan to reorganize and streamline its U.S. property and casualty
insurance legal entity structure. One phase of this multi-year plan has been completed. This
phase served to consolidate the Company&#146;s U.S. property and casualty insurance risks into CCC, as
well as realign the capital supporting these risks. As part of this phase, the Company implemented
a 100% quota share reinsurance agreement, effective January&nbsp;1, 2003, ceding all of the net
insurance risks of CIC and its 14 affiliated insurance companies (CIC Group) to CCC. Additionally,
the ownership of the CIC Group was transferred to CCC in order to align the insurance risks with
the supporting capital. In subsequent phases of this plan, the Company will continue its efforts
to reduce both the number of U.S. property and casualty insurance entities it maintains and the
number of states in which such entities are domiciled. In order to facilitate the execution of
this plan, the Company, CCC and CIC have agreed to participate in a working group consisting of
several states of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In connection with the approval process for aspects of the reorganization and legal entity
streamlining plan, the Company agreed to undergo a state regulatory financial examination of CCC
and CIC as of December&nbsp;31, 2003, including a review of insurance reserves by an independent
actuarial firm. Such review also includes examination of certain of the finite reinsurance
contracts entered into by the Company and whether such contracts possess sufficient risk transfer
characteristics necessary to qualify for accounting treatment as reinsurance. Several examination
reports were issued by state regulatory authorities in the second and third quarters of 2005, and
two examination reports are outstanding.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Pursuant to its participation in the working group referenced above, the Company has agreed to
certain time frames and informational provisions in relation to the reorganization plan. The
Company has also agreed that any proceeds from the sale of any member of the CIC pool, net of
transaction expenses, will be retained in CIC or one of its subsidiaries until the dividend
stipulation discussed below expires.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Along with other companies in the industry, the Company has received subpoenas, interrogatories and
inquiries from: (i)&nbsp;California, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Minnesota, New
Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, West Virginia and the Canadian
Council of Insurance Regulators concerning investigations into practices including contingent
compensation arrangements, fictitious quotes, and tying arrangements; (ii)&nbsp;the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC), the New York State Attorney General, the United States Attorney for the
Southern District of New York, the Connecticut Attorney General, the Connecticut Department of
Insurance, the Delaware Department of Insurance, the Georgia Office of Insurance and Safety Fire
Commissioner and the California Department of Insurance concerning finite insurance products
purchased and sold by the Company; (iii) the Massachusetts Attorney General and the Connecticut
Attorney General concerning investigations into anti-competitive practices; and (iv)&nbsp;the New York
State Attorney General concerning declinations of attorney malpractice insurance. Subsequent to
issuance of its subpoena as indicated above, the SEC requested that Company produce documents and
provide additional information relating to its previously referenced restatement, including its
relationship with and accounting for Accord Re. The Company continues to respond to these
subpoenas, interrogatories and inquiries.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the course of complying with the above matters, during the first quarter of 2005 the Company
conducted a comprehensive review of its finite reinsurance relationships, including the contracts
with Accord and other reinsurers that were the subject of the previously referenced restatement. It
is possible that the Company&#146;s analyses of, or accounting treatment for, other finite reinsurance
contracts could be questioned or disputed in state regulatory examinations or in connection with
the subpoenas, interrogatories and inquiries recited above in relation to finite insurance products
purchased and sold by the Company and the referenced restatement, and further restatements of the
Company&#146;s financial results are possible as a consequence, which could have a material adverse
impact on the Company&#146;s financial condition. See the Critical Accounting Estimates section of this
MD&#038;A for further information.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Dividends from Subsidiaries</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNAF&#146;s ability to pay dividends and other credit obligations is significantly dependent on receipt
of dividends from its subsidiaries. The payment of dividends to CNAF by its insurance subsidiaries
without prior approval of the
insurance department of each subsidiary&#146;s domiciliary jurisdiction is limited by formula.
Dividends in excess of these amounts are subject to prior approval by the respective state
insurance departments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Dividends from CCC are subject to the insurance holding company laws of the State of Illinois, the
domiciliary state of CCC. Under these laws, ordinary dividends, or dividends that do not require
prior approval of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation &#151; Division of
Insurance (the Department), may be paid only from earned surplus, which is calculated by removing
unrealized gains from unassigned surplus. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, CCC is in a positive earned
surplus position, thereby enabling CCC to pay approximately $330&nbsp;million in dividends for the
remainder of 2005 that would not be subject to the Department&#146;s prior approval. The actual level
of dividends paid in any year is determined after an assessment of available dividend capacity,
holding company liquidity and cash needs as well as the impact the dividends will have on the
statutory surplus of the applicable insurance company.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CCC&#146;s earned surplus was negative at December&nbsp;31, 2004. As a result, CCC obtained approval from
the Department in December of 2004 for extraordinary dividends in the amount of approximately $125
million to be used to fund the CNAF&#146;s 2005 debt service requirements. CCC&#146;s earned surplus was
restored to a positive position, in part, as a result of a $500&nbsp;million dividend received from its
subsidiary, CAC, during the first quarter of 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">By agreement with the New Hampshire Insurance Department, the CIC Group may not pay dividends to
CCC until after January&nbsp;1, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Loews</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Series&nbsp;H Cumulative Preferred Issue (Series&nbsp;H Issue) is held by Loews and accrues cumulative
dividends at an initial rate of 8% per year, compounded annually. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, the
Company has $179&nbsp;million of undeclared but accumulated dividends. The Series&nbsp;H Issue dividend
amounts for the three and nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004 have been subtracted from
Net Income (Loss) to determine income (loss)&nbsp;available to common stockholders.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Series&nbsp;H Issue is senior to CNAF&#146;s common stock as to the payment of dividends and amounts payable
upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up. No dividends may be declared on CNAF&#146;s common
stock until all cumulative dividends on the Series&nbsp;H Issue have been paid. CNAF may not issue any
equity securities ranking senior to or on par with the Series&nbsp;H Issue without the consent of a
majority of its stockholders. The Series&nbsp;H Issue is non-voting and is not convertible into any
other securities of CNAF. It may be redeemed only upon the mutual agreement of CNAF and a majority
of the stockholders of the preferred stock.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Ratings</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Ratings are an important factor in establishing the competitive position of insurance
companies. CNA&#146;s insurance company subsidiaries are rated by major rating agencies, and these
ratings reflect the rating agency&#146;s opinion of the insurance company&#146;s financial strength,
operating performance, strategic position and ability to meet its obligations to policyholders.
Agency ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security, and may be revised or
withdrawn at any time by the issuing organization. Each agency&#146;s rating should be evaluated
independently of any other agency&#146;s rating. One or more of these agencies could take action in the
future to change the ratings of CNA&#146;s insurance subsidiaries.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The actions that can be taken by rating agencies are changes in ratings or modifiers. &#147;On Review,&#148;
&#147;Credit Watch&#148; and &#147;Rating Watch&#148; are modifiers used by the ratings agencies to alert those parties
relying on the Company&#146;s ratings of the possibility of a rating change in the near term. Modifiers
are utilized when the agencies are uncertain as to the impact of a Company action or initiative,
which could prove to be material to the current rating level.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Modifiers are generally used to
indicate a possible change in rating within 90&nbsp;days. &#147;Outlooks&#148; accompanied with ratings are
additional modifiers used by the rating agencies to alert those parties relying on the Company&#146;s
ratings of the possibility of a rating change in the longer term. The time frame referenced in an
outlook is not necessarily limited to ninety days as defined in the Credit-Watch category.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">If CNA&#146;s property and casualty insurance financial strength ratings were downgraded below current
levels, CNA&#146;s business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. The
severity of the impact on CNA&#146;s business is dependent on the level of downgrade and, for certain
products, which rating agency takes the rating action. Among the adverse effects in the event of
such downgrades would be the inability to obtain a material volume of business from certain major
insurance brokers, the inability to sell a material volume of the Company&#146;s insurance products to
certain markets, and the required collateralization of certain future payment obligations or
reserves.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In addition, the Company believes that a lowering of the debt ratings of Loews by certain of these
agencies could result in an adverse impact on CNA&#146;s ratings, independent of any change in
circumstances at CNA. Each of the major rating agencies which rates Loews currently maintains a
negative outlook, but none currently has Loews on negative Credit Watch.

generally more than one level below the Company&#146;s current ratings.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In December of 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)&nbsp;issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No.&nbsp;123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), that amends Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard No.&nbsp;123 (SFAS 123), as originally issued in May of 1995. SFAS
123R addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives
employee services in exchange for (a)&nbsp;equity instruments of the enterprise or (b)&nbsp;liabilities that
are based on the fair value of the enterprise&#146;s equity instruments or that may be settled by the
issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS 123R supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). After the effective date of this standard,
entities will not be permitted to use the intrinsic value method specified in APB 25 to measure
compensation expense and generally would be required to measure compensation expense using a
fair-value based method. Public companies are to apply this standard using either the modified
prospective method or the modified retrospective method. The modified prospective method requires
a company to (a)&nbsp;record compensation expense for all awards it grants, modifies, repurchases or
cancels after the date it adopts the standard and (b)&nbsp;record compensation expense for the unvested
portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. The modified
retrospective method requires companies to record compensation expense to either (a)&nbsp;all prior
years for which SFAS 123 was effective (i.e. for all fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15,
1994) or (b)&nbsp;only to prior interim periods in the year of initial adoption if the effective date of
SFAS 123R does not coincide with the beginning of the fiscal year. On March&nbsp;29, 2005, the SEC
staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 107 (SAB 107) providing additional guidance on implementing
SFAS 123R. Further, SAB 107 recommends additional discussion in the MD&#038;A on items that could
affect comparability of financial statements from period to period. The Company plans to provide
additional details in the MD&#038;A on Form 10-K for 2005. SFAS 123R is effective for the Company
beginning after January&nbsp;1, 2006. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material
impact on the Company&#146;s results of operations and/or equity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In May of 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.&nbsp;154, Accounting
Changes and Error Correction. This standard is a replacement of Accounting Policy Board Opinion
No.&nbsp;20 and FASB Standard No.&nbsp;3. Under the new standard, any voluntary changes in accounting
principles should be adopted via a retrospective application of the accounting principle in the
financial statements presented in addition to obtaining an opinion from the auditors that the new
principle is preferred. In addition, adoption of a change in accounting principle required by the
issuance of a new accounting standard would also require retroactive restatement, unless the new
standard includes explicit transition guidelines. This new standard is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December&nbsp;14, 2005.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">This report contains a number of forward-looking statements which relate to anticipated future
events rather than actual present conditions or historical events. You can identify
forward-looking statements because generally they include words such as &#147;believes,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148;
&#147;intends,&#148; &#147;anticipates,&#148; &#147;estimates,&#148; and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements in this
report include any and all statements regarding expected developments in the Company&#146;s insurance
business, including losses and loss reserves for asbestos, environmental pollution and mass tort
claims which are more uncertain, and therefore more difficult to estimate than loss reserves
respecting traditional property and casualty exposures; the impact of routine ongoing insurance
reserve reviews the Company is conducting; the ongoing state regulatory examinations of the
Company&#146;s primary insurance company subsidiaries, and the Company&#146;s responses to the results of
those reviews and examinations; the Company&#146;s expectations concerning its revenues, earnings,
expenses and investment activities; expected cost savings and other results from the Company&#146;s
expense reduction and restructuring activities; and the Company&#146;s proposed actions in response to
trends in its business. Forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to a variety of
inherent risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
results projected in the forward-looking statement. Many of these risks and uncertainties cannot
be controlled by the Company. Some examples of these risks and uncertainties are:

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK</B>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Market Risk</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Market risk is a broad term related to changes in the fair value of a financial instrument.
Discussions herein regarding market risk focus on only one element of market risk &#150; price risk.
Price risk relates to changes in the level of prices due to changes in interest rates, equity
prices, foreign exchange rates or other factors that relate to market volatility of the rate, index
or price underlying the financial instrument. The Company&#146;s primary market risk exposures are due
to changes in interest rates, although the Company has certain exposures to changes in equity
prices and foreign currency exchange rates. The fair value of the financial instruments is
adversely affected when interest rates rise, equity markets decline and the dollar strengthens
against foreign currency.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Active management of market risk is integral to the Company&#146;s operations. The Company may use the
following tools to manage its exposure to market risk within defined tolerance ranges: (1)&nbsp;change
the character of future investments purchased or sold, (2)&nbsp;use derivatives to offset the market
behavior of existing assets and liabilities or assets expected to be purchased and liabilities to
be incurred, or (3)&nbsp;rebalance its existing asset and liability portfolios.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B><I>Sensitivity Analysis</I></B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">CNA monitors its sensitivity to interest rate risk by evaluating the change in the value of
financial assets and liabilities due to fluctuations in interest rates. The evaluation is
performed by applying an instantaneous change in interest rates of varying magnitudes on a static
balance sheet to determine the effect such a change in rates would have on the Company&#146;s fair value
at risk and the resulting effect on stockholders&#146; equity. The analysis presents the sensitivity of
the fair value of the Company&#146;s financial instruments to selected changes in market rates and
prices. The range of change chosen reflects the Company&#146;s view of changes that are reasonably
possible over a one-year period. The selection of the range of values chosen to represent changes
in interest rates should not be construed as the Company&#146;s prediction of future market events, but
rather an illustration of the impact of such events.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The sensitivity analysis estimates the decline in the fair value of the Company&#146;s interest
sensitive assets and liabilities that were held on September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004 due to
instantaneous parallel increases in the period end yield curve of 100 and 150 basis points. The
sensitivity analysis also assumes an instantaneous 10% and 20% decline in the foreign currency
exchange rates versus the United States dollar from their levels at September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December
31, 2004, with all other variables held constant.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Equity price risk was measured assuming an instantaneous 10% and 25% decline in the S&#038;P 500
Index (Index) from its level at September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, with all other variables
held constant. The Company&#146;s equity holdings were assumed to be highly and positively correlated
with the Index. At September&nbsp;30, 2005, a 10% and 25% decrease in the Index would result in a $212
million and $531&nbsp;million decrease compared to a $214&nbsp;million and $534&nbsp;million decrease at December
31, 2004, in the market value of the Company&#146;s equity investments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Of these amounts, under the 10% and 25% scenarios, $4&nbsp;million and $11&nbsp;million at September&nbsp;30,
2005 and $5&nbsp;million and $14&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2004 pertained to decreases in the fair value
of the separate account investments. These decreases would substantially be offset by decreases in
related separate account liabilities to customers. Similarly, increases in the fair value of the
separate account equity investments would also be offset by increases in the same related separate
account liabilities by the same approximate amounts.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following tables present the estimated effects on the fair value of the Company&#146;s financial
instruments at September&nbsp;30, 2005 and December&nbsp;31, 2004, due to an increase in interest rates of
100 basis points, a 10% decline in foreign currency exchange rates and a 10% decline in the Index.

and 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) but the entire range of businesses in
which the Company was engaged; (b)&nbsp;that the businesses segments for which he may have been
responsible and the Company&#146;s businesses are conducted nation-wide; and (c)&nbsp;that the Company&#146;s
confidential information, if disclosed or utilized without its authorization, would irreparably
harm the Company in: (i)&nbsp;obtaining renewals of existing customers; (ii)&nbsp;selling new business; (iii)
maintaining and establishing existing and new relationships with employees, agents, brokers,

shall be not more than $2,900,000 for each twelve month bonus period. In no event shall the target
Bonus be reduced without Executive&#146;s written consent. The amount of Executive&#146;s annual Bonus
shall be based on performance criteria (the &#147;Performance Criteria&#148;) established by the Committee
pursuant to the Plan for each of the years included in the term of this Agreement, and payment of
Executive&#146;s annual Bonus shall otherwise be in accordance with the provisions of the Plan,
including the requirement of annual review and approval by the Committee of awards thereunder;
provided, that satisfaction of the Performance Criteria shall be based on Net Operating Income as
defined in the Plan and as approved by the Committee; and provided further, that the Committee may
exercise 100% negative discretion under the Plan to decrease or eliminate any portion of
Executive&#146;s Bonus in excess of the target Bonus payout of $1,450,000 up to the maximum Bonus payout

overall business results and performance as determined by the Committee in their sole discretion.

includible at the time they would otherwise be paid to Executive in the absence of any elective
deferral by Executive or pursuant to Section 3(f) hereof.
