&#147;Company&#148;) announced that it is soliciting (the &#147;Consent Solicitation&#148;) the holders of its 7.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 (the &#147;Senior Secured Notes&#148;) to amend (the &#147;Proposed Amendments&#148;) the indenture
governing the Senior Secured Notes (the &#147;Secured Indenture&#148;) to provide the Company with, among other things, greater flexibility to repurchase or redeem its outstanding common stock. The terms and conditions of the Consent Solicitation
are described in the consent solicitation statement dated May&nbsp;9, 2014 (the &#147;Statement&#148;), attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The Company also announced that, as of May&nbsp;14, 2014, the beneficial holders of a majority of principal
amount of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes had committed to consent to the Proposed Amendments. Such beneficial owners were not paid a consent fee by HGI and will have the right to participate pro-rata with other holders of the Senior Secured
Notes in the Offer (as defined below). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Concurrently with the Consent Solicitation, the Company commenced an offer (the &#147;Offer&#148;) to exchange a
portion of its outstanding Senior Secured Notes for up to $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of new 7.750% Senior Notes due 2022. The terms and conditions of the Offer are described in the offering memorandum, dated May&nbsp;14, 2014 (the
&#147;Offering Memorandum&#148;), and the related letter of transmittal (the &#147;Letter of Transmittal&#148;), attached hereto as Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3, respectively. The Proposed Amendments will not be operative until the Company&#146;s
acceptance, subject to any required proration, of the Senior Secured Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) as of the early tender time of the Offer. The Proposed Amendments will be reflected in a supplemental indenture (the
&#147;Supplemental Indenture&#148;) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the trustee under the Secured Indenture, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit&nbsp;99.4. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the Proposed Amendments become operative, the Company will have the ability to purchase HGI common stock pursuant to a new $100 million share repurchase
program authorized by the Company&#146;s board of directors. The repurchase program authorizes purchases to be made from time to time in one or more open market or private transactions. The manner of purchase, the number of shares to be purchased
and the timing of purchases will be based on the price of HGI&#146;s common stock, general business and market conditions and applicable legal requirements, and is subject to the discretion of HGI&#146;s management. The program does not require HGI
to purchase any specific number of shares or any shares at all, and may be suspended, discontinued or re-instituted at any time without prior notice. The Company may fund any such repurchase with cash on hand or other borrowings. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A copy of the press release issued by the Company with respect to the transactions described above is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.5. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The foregoing summary description of the Consent Solicitation, the Proposed Amendments, the Offer and the Supplemental Indenture has been included to provide
investors and security holders with information regarding their terms and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the Statement, the Offering Memorandum, the Letter of Transmittal and the form of Supplemental
Indenture, which are attached as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, 99.3 and 99.4, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This information shall not be

conditions set forth in the Solicitation Documents. The valid completion, execution and delivery of the Consent Letter by you prior to the Expiration Time will constitute delivery of Consent by you to the Proposed Amendments. The Company is seeking
Consents to the Proposed Amendments as a whole. Accordingly, a Consent purporting to consent to only some of the Proposed Amendments will not be valid. Promptly after the receipt of the Requisite Consents on or prior to the Expiration Time, the
Company intends to enter into the Supplemental Indenture with the Trustee, which, upon satisfaction or waiver of the General Condition (defined below) and upon the Company&#146;s acceptance, subject to pro ration, of the Notes validly tendered (and

Consents can be revoked only in accordance with the procedures described in &#147;&#151;Revocation of Consents&#148; below. Regardless of whether the Proposed Amendments or the Supplemental Indenture become operative, the Notes will continue to be

Consent Letter and deliver it to the Tabulation Agent in accordance with the instructions set forth herein and therein. A beneficial owner of an interest in Notes held through a DTC Participant must complete and sign the Letter of Instructions and

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following is a general discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Consent Solicitation that may be
relevant to U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holders (each as defined below). This discussion does not address state, local or non-U.S. tax considerations nor does it consider all aspects of federal income taxation which may be relevant to particular
Holders in light of their individual investment circumstances or to certain types of Holders subject to special tax rules. For example, this discussion does not address the tax considerations relevant to beneficial owners of the Notes who are
financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, tax-exempt organizations, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use the mark-to-market method of
accounting for their securities, Holders that hold Notes as part of a position in a straddle or as part of a hedging, conversion or integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders (as defined below) that have a functional
currency other than the U.S. dollar, or Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) that are U.S. expatriates, &#147;controlled foreign corporations,&#148; or &#147;passive foreign investment companies.&#148; In addition, this discussion generally does not
address any U.S. federal income tax consequences to a Non-U.S. Holder that: (i)&nbsp;is engaged in a U.S. trade or business, (ii)&nbsp;is a non-resident alien who is present in the United States for 183 or more days during the taxable year, or
(iii)&nbsp;is a corporation that operates through a U.S. branch. Moreover, this description does not address the U.S. federal estate and gift tax, alternative minimum tax, the Medicare contribution tax on unearned income or other tax considerations
of the Consent Solicitation. This discussion assumes that Holders have held their Notes as &#147;capital assets&#148; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;<B>Code</B>&#148;). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This summary is based upon the provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, administrative rulings and judicial
decisions as of the date hereof. These authorities are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences significantly different from those set forth below. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Holders should be aware that, due to the factual nature of the inquiry and the absence of relevant legal authorities, there is some
uncertainty under current U.S. federal income tax law as to the appropriate tax consequences of the adoption of the Proposed Amendments. No statutory, administrative or judicial authority directly addresses the treatment of the adoption of the
Proposed Amendments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company has not sought any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the &#147;<B>IRS</B>&#148;) or an opinion of counsel with respect to the statements made and the conclusions reached
in the following summary. As a result, this summary is not binding on the IRS or the courts, and no assurance can be given that the conclusions reached in this summary will not be challenged by the IRS or will be sustained by a court if so
challenged. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As used in this summary, a &#147;U.S. Holder&#148; means any beneficial owner of the Notes that is, for U.S. federal income
tax purposes: (i)&nbsp;a U.S. citizen or a resident alien for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (ii)&nbsp;a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized under the laws of the United
States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii)&nbsp;an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source, or (iv)&nbsp;a trust which (a)&nbsp;is subject to the primary supervision of a court
within the United States and for which one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions, or (b)&nbsp;has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. A &#147;Non-U.S.
Holder&#148; is a beneficial owner of Notes that is not a U.S. Holder and that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an individual, corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes), estate or trust.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a pass-through entity, including a partnership or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is a
beneficial owner of the Notes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an owner or partner generally will depend upon the status of such owner or partner and upon the activities of the pass-through entity. Owners or partners of a pass-through
entity that is a beneficial owner of the Notes should consult their own tax advisors as to the federal income, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of the adoption of the Proposed Amendments. </P>

adoption of the Proposed Amendments results in a &#147;significant modification&#148; of the Notes and thus a deemed exchange of the Notes for new Notes with respect to which gain (but not loss) may be recognized. Under the applicable Treasury
Regulations, the modification of a debt instrument is a &#147;significant modification&#148; if, based on all the facts and circumstances (and, subject to certain exceptions, taking into account all modifications of the debt instrument

become operative upon HGI&#146;s acceptance of the Senior Secured Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) as of the Early Tender Time pursuant to the Offer, subject to the Tender Cap and any required proration. HGI will not pay a consent
fee to the consenting holders of the Senior Secured Notes for providing such consents and such consenting holders will have the right to participate pro rata in the Offer with other holders of Senior Secured Notes. </P>

Common Stock pursuant to a new share repurchase program authorized by HGI&#146;s board of directors. The repurchase program authorizes purchases to be made from time to time in one or more open market or private transactions. The manner of purchase,
the number of shares to be purchased and the timing of purchases will be based on the price of the HGI&#146;s common stock, general business and market conditions and applicable legal requirements, and is subject to the discretion of HGI&#146;s
management. The program does not require HGI to purchase any specific number of shares or any shares at all, and may be suspended, discontinued or re-instituted at any time without prior notice. HGI may fund any such repurchase with cash on hand or
other borrowings. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Conversion of Preferred Stock </B></P>

Offer.&#148; There can be no assurance that the Offer will be consummated or that any failure to consummate the Offer will not have a negative effect on the market price and liquidity of the Senior Notes. </P>

to the Offer, and Senior Notes through redemptions, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers, exchange offers or otherwise, subject to the terms of the Senior Secured Indenture and the Senior Indenture, as applicable,
and applicable law, upon such terms and at such prices as the Company or its affiliates may determine, which may be more or less than the consideration to be received by participating Holders in the Offer and, in either case, could be for cash or

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To the extent that the Senior Secured Notes are traded, prices of the Senior Secured Notes may fluctuate widely depending on trading volume,
the balance between buy and sell orders, prevailing interest rates, the Company&#146;s operating results and the market for similar securities. To the extent such information is available, Holders are urged to obtain current market quotations for

Secured Notes will cease to be outstanding and will be promptly cancelled. As a result, any existing trading market for the remaining Senior Secured Notes may become more limited. A debt security with a smaller outstanding principal amount available
for trading, which the financial services industry refers to as a smaller &#147;float,&#148; may command a lower price than would a comparable debt security with a greater float. Therefore, the market price for Senior Secured Notes not exchanged in
the Offer may be adversely affected if the amount of Senior Secured Notes exchanged in the Offer reduces the float of the Notes. The reduced float may also tend to make the trading price more volatile. Moreover, there can be no assurance that any
trading market will exist for the Senior Secured Notes or the Senior Notes following the Offer. The extent of the public market for the Senior Secured Notes or the Senior Notes, if any, following the completion of the Offer, will depend upon the
number of holders of Senior Secured Notes or the Senior Notes, as applicable, the interest in maintaining a market in the Senior Secured Notes or the Senior Notes on the part of securities firms and other factors. </P>

operations of its own. Its main assets are the capital stock of its subsidiaries, which are principally regulated insurance companies, whose ability to pay dividends is limited by applicable insurance laws. Accordingly, FGL&#146;s ability to pay
dividends to us and its other stockholders is dependent, to a significant extent, on the generation of cash flow by its subsidiaries and their ability to make such cash available to FGL, by dividend or otherwise. FGL&#146;s subsidiaries may not be
able to, or may not be permitted to, make distributions to enable FGL to meet its obligations and pay dividends. Each subsidiary is a distinct legal entity and legal and contractual restrictions may also limit FGL&#146;s ability to obtain cash from
its subsidiaries. See Part I, Item&nbsp;1. &#147;Business&#151;Our Operating Subsidiaries&#151;FGL&#151;Regulation&#151; Financial Regulation&#151;Dividend and Other Distribution Payment Limitations&#148; and Part I, Item&nbsp;1A. &#147;Risk

generally have priority as to the assets of our subsidiaries over our claims and over claims of the holders of our indebtedness, including the Senior Notes. As of March&nbsp;31, 2014, the total liabilities of Spectrum Brands were approximately $4.7
billion, including trade payables. As of March&nbsp;31, 2014, the total liabilities of FGL were approximately $21.9 billion, including approximately $16.0 billion in annuity contractholder funds, approximately $3.5 billion in future policy benefits
and approximately $300.0 million of indebtedness under the FGH Notes. As of March&nbsp;31, 2014, the total liabilities of HGI Asset Management Holdings, LLC were approximately $0.3 million and were approximately $619.1 million when consolidated with
Salus and Five Island. As of March&nbsp;31, 2014, the total liabilities of HGI Energy were $412.0 million. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The creditors of our

our subsidiaries may incur additional indebtedness (including secured obligations) in the future. If we incur any additional indebtedness that ranks equally with the Senior Notes, the holders of that indebtedness will be entitled to share ratably
with the holders of the Senior Notes in any proceeds distributed in connection with any insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding-up of us. If we incur additional secured indebtedness, the holders of such indebtedness
will be effectively senior to the holders of the Senior Notes to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. This may have the effect of reducing the amount of proceeds paid to holders of the Senior Notes. If new
indebtedness is added to our current levels of indebtedness, the related risks that we now face, including our possible inability to service our debt, could intensify. Additionally, if our subsidiaries incur additional debt, the Senior Notes will be
structurally subordinated to such debt. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>We may be unable to repurchase the Senior Notes upon a change of control. </B></P>

price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if certain &#147;change of control&#148; events occur. However, it is possible that we will not have sufficient funds when required under the Senior
Indenture to make the required repurchase of the Senior Notes. If we fail to repurchase Senior Notes in that circumstance, we will be in default under the Senior Indenture. If we are required to repurchase a significant portion of the Senior Notes,
we may require third party financing as such funds may otherwise only be available to us through a distribution by our subsidiaries to us. We cannot be sure that we would be able to obtain third party financing on acceptable terms, or at all, or

$100.0 million in Canadian dollar equivalents to be made available to one of the borrower&#146;s Canadian subsidiaries. The terms of the Term Loan Facility allowed SBI, subject to certain conditions, to increase the commitments under the Term Loan
Facility, in an aggregate incremental amount not to exceed $350.0 million plus an additional amount subject to compliance with certain secured net leverage ratio requirements. The Term Loan Facility has a seven-year term. On September&nbsp;4, 2013
(the &#147;<I>Term Loan Closing Date</I>&#148;), SBI closed on $1.15 billion of term loans (the &#147;<I>September SBI Loans</I>&#148;) and entered into an amendment to the Term Loan Facility (as amended, the &#147;<I>Amended Term Loan

term loans in an aggregate amount of $300 million (the &#147;<I>Tranche C Loans</I>&#148;). The existing term loans outstanding on the Term Loan Facility are referred to as the &#147;<I>Tranche B Loans</I>.&#148; Tranche A Loans will mature four
years from the Term Loan Closing Date and Tranche C Loans will mature on the sixth anniversary of the Term Loan Closing Date. As of September&nbsp;30, 2013, SBI had $850 million Tranche A Loans, $595 million Tranche B Loans and $300 million Tranche

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following discussion is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations to U.S. Holders and non-U.S. Holders (each as
defined below and collectively referred to as &#147;Holders&#148;) relating to the exchange of Senior Secured Notes for Additional Senior Notes (together, the &#147;Notes&#148;) pursuant to the Offer (the &#147;Exchange&#148;) and the ownership and
disposition of the Additional Senior Notes acquired in the Offer. This discussion does not address state, local or non-U.S. tax considerations, nor does it consider all aspects of federal income taxation which may be relevant to particular Holders
in light of their individual investment circumstances or to certain types of Holders subject to special tax rules. For example, this discussion does not address the tax considerations relevant to beneficial owners of the Senior Secured Notes who are
financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, tax-exempt organizations, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use the mark-to-market method of
accounting for their securities, Holders that hold Senior Secured Notes as part of a position in a straddle or as part of a hedging, conversion or integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders that have a functional
currency other than the U.S. dollar, or Non-U.S. Holders that are U.S. expatriates, &#147;controlled foreign corporations,&#148; or &#147;passive foreign investment companies.&#148; Moreover, this discussion does not address the U.S. federal estate
and gift tax, alternative minimum tax or other tax considerations of the Offer. This discussion assumes that Holders have held and will hold their Notes as &#147;capital assets&#148; within the meaning of Section&nbsp;1221 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;Code&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This summary is based upon the provisions of the Code, U.S. Treasury regulations
promulgated under the Code (the &#147;Treasury Regulations&#148;), administrative rulings and judicial decisions as of the date hereof. These authorities are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, so as to result in U.S. federal income
tax consequences significantly different from those set forth below. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As used in this summary, a &#147;U.S. Holder&#148; means any
beneficial owner of the Notes that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (i)&nbsp;a U.S. citizen or a resident alien for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (ii)&nbsp;a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income
tax purposes) created or organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii)&nbsp;an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source, or (iv)&nbsp;a trust
which (a)&nbsp;is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and for which one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions, or (b)&nbsp;has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury
Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. A &#147;Non-U.S. Holder&#148; is a beneficial owner of the Notes that is not a U.S. Holder and that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an individual, corporation (or other entity taxable as a
corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes), estate or trust. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a pass-through entity, including a partnership or other entity
classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is a beneficial owner of the Notes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an owner or partner generally will depend upon the status of such owner or partner and upon the activities

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The U.S. federal income tax consequences of exchanging Senior Secured Notes for Additional Senior Notes pursuant to the Offer will depend in
part on whether the Exchange constitutes a &#147;significant modification&#148; of the Senior Secured Notes. Generally, the modification of a debt instrument (including a change in the yield, an addition, deletion or alteration of a put option, a
call option or a conversion right) will be treated as a &#147;deemed exchange&#148; of an &#147;old&#148; debt instrument for a &#147;new&#148; debt instrument for U.S. federal income tax purposes if such modification is &#147;significant&#148;
within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section&nbsp;1001 of the Code (the &#147;Debt Modification Regulations&#148;). Such a deemed exchange would be taxable unless a non-recognition provision of the Code were to apply.
Under the Debt Modification Regulations, the modification of a debt instrument is generally &#147;significant&#148; if, based on all the facts and circumstances and taking into account all modifications of the debt instrument collectively, the legal
rights or obligations that are altered and the degree to which they are altered are &#147;economically significant.&#148; The Debt Modification Regulations provide that a change in the yield of certain debt instruments generally constitutes a
significant modification if the yield of the modified debt instrument varies from the yield of the unmodified debt instrument by more than the greater of (a)&nbsp;25 basis points or (b)&nbsp;5 percent of the annual yield of the unmodified debt
instrument (the &#147;Yield Threshold&#148;). The Debt Modification Regulations identify certain modifications as not &#147;significant,&#148; such as: (i)&nbsp;a modification that adds, deletes or alters customary accounting or financial covenants,
or (ii)&nbsp;a change to the maturity date of notes, if the final payment under the notes is made within the lesser of 5 years or a period of time that is 50 percent of the original term of the notes. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on the increase in principal amount of the Additional Senior Notes to be received in the
Exchange, we expect that the yield of the Additional Senior Notes (taking into account the increase in principal amount) will exceed the yield of the Senior Secured Notes by more than the Yield Threshold. Accordingly, the Exchange will constitute a
significant modification of the Senior Secured Notes, and therefore participating U.S. Holders will realize gain or loss on the Exchange as described in &#147;Gain or Loss Realization,&#148; below. Furthermore, participating U.S. Holders will
generally be required to include such realized gain or loss in gross income, unless the Exchange qualifies as a tax-free recapitalization under Section&nbsp;368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, as described in &#147;Recapitalization Treatment,&#148; below.

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In order for the Exchange to qualify as a recapitalization, the Senior Secured Notes and Additional Senior Notes must both be treated as
&#147;securities&#148; under the relevant provisions of the Code. The term &#147;securities&#148; is not defined in the Code or in applicable Treasury Regulations, and it has not been clearly defined by judicial decisions. The classification of a
debt instrument as a security is a determination based on all facts and circumstances, including, but not limited to: (i)&nbsp;the term (i.e., duration) of the instrument, (ii)&nbsp;whether or not the instrument is secured, (iii)&nbsp;the degree of
subordination of the debt instrument, (iv)&nbsp;the ratio of debt to equity of the issuer, and (v)&nbsp;the riskiness of the business of the issuer. Most authorities have held that the term to maturity of a debt instrument is one of the most
significant factors in determining whether it qualifies as a security. A debt instrument with a term of more than ten years generally is treated as a security, whereas a debt instrument with a term of five years or less generally is not treated as a
security. Because the term to maturity of both the Senior Secured Notes and the Additional Senior Notes exceeds five years, but is less than ten years, it is unclear whether they will qualify as &#147;securities.&#148; We intend to take the position
that both the Senior Secured Notes and the Additional Senior Notes should be considered securities and the Exchange should qualify as a recapitalization. </P>

the Additional Senior Notes may be redeemed by us prior to maturity at a premium, special rules apply that may adversely affect the amount of premium that a U.S. Holder may amortize with respect to an Additional Senior Note. If a U.S. Holder makes
this election, the U.S. Holder will reduce the amount required to be included in its income each year with respect to interest on its Additional Senior Note by the amount of amortizable bond premium allocable to that year based on a constant-yield
method. A U.S. Holder may also make an election to include in income all interest that accrues on an Additional Senior Note (including QSI, as adjusted by any amortizable bond premium) in accordance with a constant-yield method based on the
compounding of interest (a &#147;constant-yield election&#148;). The election to amortize bond premium (including a deemed election resulting from a constant-yield election), once made, is irrevocable without the consent of the IRS and applies to
all taxable bonds held during the taxable year for which the election is made or subsequently acquired. If a U.S. Holder does not make either of these elections, it will be required to include in gross income the full amount of interest on the
Additional Senior Note in accordance with its regular method of tax accounting, and will include the premium in its tax basis for the Additional Senior Note for purposes of computing the amount of its gain or loss recognized on the taxable
disposition of the Additional Senior Note. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the computation and amortization of any bond premium on an Additional Senior Note. </P>

current U.S. federal income tax law, the Exchange Agent (as payor) may be required to withhold a portion of any payments made to certain holders (or other payees) pursuant to the offer and other transactions described in the Offering Memorandum. To
avoid such backup withholding, each tendering U.S. holder (as defined in the instructions to Form W-9) or other U.S. payee must provide the Exchange Agent with its correct taxpayer identification number (&#147;<I>TIN</I>&#148;) and certify that it
is not subject to backup withholding by completing Form W-9 of the Internal Revenue Service (the &#147;<I>IRS</I>&#148;), or otherwise establish an exemption from the backup withholding rules. In general, for an individual, the TIN is such
individual&#146;s social security number. If the Exchange Agent is not provided with the correct TIN or an adequate basis for an exemption, the U.S. holder (or other U.S. payee) may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS, and any reportable
payments made to such person may be subject to backup withholding at the applicable rate, currently 28%. Such reportable payments generally will be subject to information reporting, even if the Exchange Agent is provided with a TIN. If a U.S. holder
has not been issued a TIN and has applied for one or intends to apply for one in the near future, such U.S. holder should write &#147;Applied For&#148; in the space provided for the TIN in Part&nbsp;I of Form W-9, sign and date the Form W-9 and the
Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number. If &#147;Applied For&#148; is written in Part I and the Exchange Agent is not provided with a TIN prior to the date of payment, the Exchange Agent will withhold 28% of any reportable payments
made to the U.S. holder. For further information concerning backup withholding and instructions for completing Form W-9 (including how to obtain a TIN if you do not have one and how to complete Form W-9 if the Senior Secured Notes are held in more
than one name), consult the instructions in Form W-9. All IRS forms mentioned herein (and the instructions thereto) may be obtained on the IRS website at www.irs.gov. </P>

subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. Exempt U.S. persons should indicate their exempt status on Form W-9. To satisfy the Exchange Agent that a non-U.S. person qualifies as an exempt recipient, such person must submit a
properly completed appropriate IRS Form W-8 (W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP, or W-8IMY), signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to that person&#146;s non-U.S. status. The applicable IRS Form W-8 can be obtained from the Exchange Agent. Holders should

Backup withholding is not an additional U.S. federal income tax. Rather, the amount of U.S. federal income tax withheld will be creditable against the U.S. federal income tax liability of a person subject to backup withholding. If backup withholding
results in an overpayment of U.S. federal income tax, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:2pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Disregarded entity.</B> For U.S. federal tax purposes, an entity that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner is treated as a &#147;disregarded

line must be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be reported. For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes has a single owner that is a U.S. person, the U.S.
owner&#146;s name is required to be provided on the &#147;Name&#148; line. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity&#146;s
name on the &#147;Business name/disregarded entity name&#148; line. If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, the owner must complete an appropriate Form W-8 instead of a Form W-9. This is the case even if the foreign person has a

federal tax purposes, enter &#147;P&#148; for partnership. If you are an LLC that has filed a Form 8832 or a Form 2553 to be taxed as a corporation, enter &#147;C&#148; for C corporation or &#147;S&#148; for S corporation, as appropriate. If you are
an LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner under Regulation section 301.7701-3 (except for employment and excise tax), do not check the LLC box unless the owner of the LLC (required to be identified on the &#147;Name&#148; line)
is another LLC that is not disregarded for U.S. federal tax purposes. If the LLC is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the appropriate tax classification of the owner identified on the &#147;Name&#148; line. </P>

the acquisition or abandonment of secured property; the cancellation of debt; or contributions you made to an IRA, Archer MSA, or HSA. The person collecting this form uses the information on the form to file information returns with the IRS,
reporting the above information. Routine uses of this information include giving it to the Department of Justice for civil and criminal litigation and to cities, states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. commonwealths and possessions for use in
administering their laws. The information also may be disclosed to other countries under a treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce civil and criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism. You
must provide your TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Under section 3406, payers must generally withhold a percentage of taxable interest, dividend, and certain other payments to a payee who does not give a TIN to the payer.
Certain penalties may also apply for providing false or fraudulent information. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">New York, NY &#150; May&nbsp;14, 2014 &#150; Harbinger Group Inc. (&#147;HGI&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;; NYSE: HRG) today announced that it is
soliciting (the &#147;Consent Solicitation&#148;) the holders of its 7.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 (the &#147;Secured Notes&#148;) to amend (the &#147;Proposed Amendments&#148;) the indenture governing the Secured Notes (the &#147;Secured
Indenture&#148;) to provide the Company with, among other things, greater flexibility to repurchase or redeem its outstanding common stock. The terms and conditions of the Consent Solicitation are described in the consent solicitation statement
dated May&nbsp;9, 2014 (the &#147;Statement&#148;). As of today&#146;s date, the beneficial holders of a majority of principal amount of the outstanding Secured Notes had committed to consent to the Proposed Amendments. Such beneficial owners were
not paid a consent fee by HGI and will have the right to participate pro-rata with other holders of the Secured Notes in the Offer (as defined below). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Concurrently with the Consent Solicitation, the Company commenced an offer (the &#147;Offer&#148;) to exchange a portion of its outstanding Secured Notes for
up to $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount (the &#147;Tender Cap&#148;) of new 7.750% Senior Notes due 2022 (the &#147;Additional Unsecured Notes&#148;). The terms and conditions of the Offer are described in the offering memorandum, dated
May&nbsp;14, 2014, and the related letter of transmittal (the &#147;Offer Documents&#148;). The Proposed Amendments will not be operative until the Company&#146;s acceptance, subject to any required proration, of the Secured Notes validly tendered
(and not validly withdrawn) as of the Early Tender Time (as defined below). The Proposed Amendments will be reflected in a supplemental indenture (the &#147;Supplemental Indenture&#148;) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the trustee under
the Secured Indenture. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the Proposed Amendments become operative, the Company will have the ability to purchase HGI common stock pursuant to a new
$100&nbsp;million share repurchase program authorized by the Company&#146;s board of directors. The repurchase program authorizes purchases to be made from time to time in one or more open market or private transactions. The manner of purchase, the
number of shares to be purchased and the timing of purchases will be based on the price of HGI&#146;s common stock, general business and market conditions and applicable legal requirements, and is subject to the discretion of HGI&#146;s management.
The program does not require HGI to purchase any specific number of shares or any shares at all, and may be suspended, discontinued or re-instituted at any time without prior notice. The Company may fund any such repurchase with cash on hand or
other borrowings. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Documents and subject to the Tender Cap and any required proration, each
