to any of the periods in which it occurred.
(c) Results for 2004 reflect aggregate restructuring charges of $102 million ($66 million after-tax) for initiatives executed during 2004. In addition, the Company

Express Business Finance Corporation.

tively, derived principally from annuity and life and health related products and services.
