Item 1. BUSINESS
ORGANIZATION AND SEGMENTS
Capital Holding Corporation (the "Company"), an insurance and diversified financial services holding company based in Louisville, Kentucky, was incorporated in Delaware in 1969 by Commonwealth Life Insurance Company ("Commonwealth Life"). The objective was to achieve earnings growth through acquisitions of other insurance companies and, thus, effect economies of scale and the sharing of commonly needed resources, while preserving the strengths of acquired companies' marketing operations.
Through affiliates of its Agency Group, Direct Response Group and Accumulation and Investment Group, the Company offers accumulation, life and annuity, accident and health and property and casualty insurance products. The Company's Banking Group affiliates provide consumer loans, deposits and other banking services.
Agency Group
By 1976, the Company had acquired Peoples Life Insurance Company ("Peoples Life") in Washington, D.C.; National Standard Life Insurance Company ("National Standard") in Orlando, Florida; Georgia International Life Insurance Company ("Georgia International") in Atlanta, Georgia; Home Security Life Insurance Company ("Home Security") in Durham, North Carolina; and several other companies that were subsequently merged into these affiliates. On October 1, 1985, Peoples Life and Home Security were merged to form Peoples Security Life Insurance Company ("Peoples Security") with headquarters in Durham. On March 31, 1987, the Company sold Georgia International to Southmark Corporation. On April 1, 1988, National Standard was merged into Commonwealth Life. On September 8, 1989, the Company acquired Southlife Holding Company and its primary operating companies, Public Savings Life Insurance Company ("Public Savings Insurance") and Security Trust Life Insurance Company ("Security Trust"). In December 1991 the Company created Capital Security Life Insurance Company ("Capital Security") with headquarters in Durham, as the successor to Public Savings Insurance. On November 14, 1991, the Company acquired Durham Corporation ("Durham") and its primary operating company, Durham Life Insurance Company ("Durham Life"), with headquarters in Raleigh, North Carolina. Agency Group's business is conducted primarily through four affiliates: Commonwealth Life, Peoples Security, Capital Security and Durham Life.
Direct Response Group
National Liberty Corporation ("National Liberty") in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, was acquired on January 14, 1981, and added a nationwide direct marketing operation to what previously had been a regional, agent based marketing system. In addition, National Home Life Assurance Company ("National Home"), domiciled in Missouri, was also acquired as National Liberty's primary operating company, together with its principal subsidiaries, Veterans Life Insurance Company ("Veterans Life") and National Home Life Insurance Company of New York ("National Home NY").
- 2 -
Item 1. (continued)
In 1979, Commonwealth Life's property and casualty operation was recapitalized, made a direct subsidiary of the Company and later renamed Capital Enterprise Insurance Company ("Capital Enterprise"). On December 31, 1986, the Company acquired Worldwide Underwriters Insurance Company ("Worldwide Insurance"), located in St. Louis, Missouri, and the personal lines property and casualty insurance business of the Wausau Insurance Companies. Concurrently, it made Capital Enterprise a direct subsidiary of Worldwide Insurance. These two affiliates, together with Capital Landmark Insurance Company, a subsidiary of Capital Enterprise, and Worldwide Underwriters Insurance Company of North Carolina, a subsidiary of Worldwide Underwriters Insurance, form the property and casualty line of business of the Company's Direct Response Group.
On January 15, 1993, Worldwide Insurance acquired Academy Insurance Group ("Academy") and its subsidiaries, Academy Life Insurance Company and Pension Life Insurance Company. Academy principally markets life insurance to active duty military service personnel.
Accumulation And Investment Group
In 1987, the institutional accumulation product business, previously managed in Agency Group, and the retail accumulation product business, previously managed by National Liberty, were moved to the Accumulation and Investment Group. Affiliates of Agency Group and Direct Response Group offer these institutional and retail accumulation products. In addition to the marketing and management of accumulation (investment-type) products, Accumulation and Investment Group manages the Company's insurance-related investment portfolios.
Banking Group
In April 1984, the Company acquired a controlling interest in First Deposit Corporation ("First Deposit"), located in San Francisco, California, which owns a consumer bank (First Deposit National Bank) and a credit card bank (First Deposit National Credit Card Bank). Ownership in First Deposit was increased each year until 1989 when the remaining shares were purchased. These affiliates form the Banking Group.
Financial information about business segments is included in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

These include coverages for regular income during periods of hospitalization, scheduled reimbursement for specific hospital/surgical expenses and cancer treatments, hospice care, deductible and co-payment amounts not covered by other health insurance, lump sum payments for accidental death or dismemberment and benefits for death and injury resulting from an accident. Additionally, National Home and Academy offer a Medicare supplement product.
Worldwide Insurance, Capital Enterprise and their subsidiaries underwrite personal lines automobile, homeowners and umbrella liability coverages, mainly for standard and preferred risks.
Accumulation
The institutional line of accumulation products, offered through Commonwealth Life, Peoples Security and National Home, consists of fixed rate guaranteed investment contracts ("GICs") and floating rate GICs which can receive interest based on rates indexed to either short-, intermediate- or long-term rates. In addition, the institutional line includes Trust GICs where the plan sponsor owns and retains assets related to these contracts and Commonwealth Life and Peoples Security provide benefit responsiveness in the event that benefit requests and other contractual commitments exceed current cash flows. Further, Commonwealth Life and Peoples Security offer to institutional customers Total Return Account Contracts ("TRACs"), which guarantee the total return of selected indices without the additional transaction costs, including

Item 1. (continued)
the S & P 500 Index, the Shearson Lehman Aggregate Index and the Government Corporate Index.
Through National Home, Commonwealth Life and Peoples Security, the Company offers retail products including immediate life annuities (primarily structured settlements), variable annuities, single premium and flexible premium deferred annuities and individual retirement annuities. Single premium deferred annuities and flexible premium deferred annuities are offered at a fixed interest rate on either a fixed or indexed basis. In addition, flexible premium deferred annuities are offered on a variable contract basis.
Banking
Banking Group affiliates offer both secured and unsecured loan accounts, as well as a broad range of deposit products. The receivables portfolio consists primarily of unsecured consumer loans which use a VISAR or MasterCardR credit card as the credit extension vehicle, a revolving cash loan product without a credit card, a secured line of credit using a VISAR or MasterCardR credit card, a home equity secured loan product called Select EquityR and insurance premium finance installment loans. Banking Group affiliates also offer fee-based products designed to suspend certain customer payment obligations in situations such as loss of income due to unemployment or disability. Deposit products include retail and institutional certificates of deposit and money market deposit accounts.
MARKETING
Agency Group markets individual insurance products primarily through home service agents, who call on customers in their homes to sell policies and provide related services. Home office and field associates, including individuals who provide direct customer sales and those who deliver service and support, are organized as Customer Service Units ("CSUs"), each of which operates under a single management structure, as opposed to the prior organization where marketing and administration were managed separately. There are 11 CSUs providing full service to customers in particular geographic and/or market segments. Substantially all of the home service representatives are employees of Agency Group affiliates and do not represent other insurers. Such representatives receive compensation from sales commissions and from renewal and service commissions. The compensation arrangement is designed to reward representatives who not only sell new policies, but who also effectively maintain and service in-force business to meet Company sales and persistency objectives. In addition to its home service sales organization, marketing partnerships have also been formed whereby products are distributed through the insurance and marketing organizations of third parties.
Direct Response Group primarily uses television and print media solicitation, direct mail, telephone and third-party programs to market its insurance products. Additional mail correspondence and telephone communications are used to follow up and close sales. Sponsored marketing programs are conducted through major banks, oil companies, department stores, associations and other businesses with large customer bases. Products are also marketed to active duty military personnel on military bases through Agents/Counselors. Property and casualty products are also marketed through some of the home service agents of Agency Group.
- 5 -
Item 1. (continued)
Institutional accumulation products of the Accumulation and Investment Group are marketed through a small sales staff, bank trustees, municipal GIC brokers, GIC fund managers, brokers and direct marketing. Retail products are marketed through financial planners, stock brokerage firms, pension consultants, savings and loan associations, banks and other financial institutions.
Banking Group's consumer loan and deposit products are primarily marketed using direct mail and telemarketing channels and other direct response methods. Installment loans are primarily marketed through agents. In 1993, the Banking Group also entered into joint marketing arrangements with unaffiliated third parties whereby the Banking Group's consumer credit products would be endorsed by, or offered in connection with the products or services of, such third parties.
The Company's Agency Group affiliates concentrate their marketing efforts in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic states, while the Direct Response, Accumulation and Investment and Banking Groups market their products nationwide.
RISK
Risk is integral to insurance but, as is customary in the insurance business, risk exposure is kept within acceptable limits. The Company's subsidiaries retain no more than $1,000,000 of life insurance and $250,000 of accidental death benefits for any single life. Excess coverages are reinsured externally. At December 31, 1993, approximately $4.6 billion, or approximately 6.9 percent of total life insurance in force, was reinsured with nonaffiliated insurance companies. The Company would become liable for the reinsured risks if the reinsurers could not meet their obligations.
The Company's life insurance affiliates in many cases require evidence of insurability before issuing individual life policies including, in some cases, a medical examination or a statement by an attending physician. Home office underwriters review that evidence and approve the issuance of the policy in accordance with the application if the risk is acceptable. Some applicants who are substandard risks are rejected, but many are offered policies with higher premiums or restricted coverages. As of December 31, 1993, approximately 1.9 percent of life insurance in force was represented by risks which were substandard at the time the policy was issued. The majority of individual health insurance is Direct Response Group business and written without evidence of insurability, relying on safeguards such as product design, limits on the amount of coverage, and premiums which recognize the resultant higher level of claims.
Banking Group's unsecured consumer loans are principally generated through direct mail solicitations sent to a prescreened list of prospective account holders, followed by credit verification. Four principles guide development of specific underwriting criteria for each mailing: (i) sufficient credit history; (ii) no unacceptable derogatory credit remarks; (iii) necessary income qualification; and (iv) no rapid increase in outstanding debt or credit availability.

Item 1. (continued)
As a diversified financial services company, many of the Company's assets and liabilities are monetary in nature and thus are sensitive to changes in the interest rate environment.
Detailed discussions about the Company's investments are included in Note C to the Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 44 through 46 of the Company's 1993 Annual Report and Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
REGULATION
Insurance
The business of the Company's insurance subsidiaries is subject to regulation and supervision by the insurance regulatory authority of each state in which the subsidiaries are licensed to do business. Such regulators grant licenses to transact business; regulate trade practices; approve policy forms; license agents; approve certain premium rates; establish minimum reserve and loss ratio requirements; review form and content of required financial statements; prescribe type and amount of investments permitted; and assure that capital, surplus and solvency requirements are met. Insurance companies can also be required under the solvency or guaranty laws of most states in which they do business to pay assessments up to prescribed limits to fund policyholder losses or liabilities of insolvent insurance companies. They are also required to file detailed annual reports with supervisory agencies, and records of their business are subject to examination at any time. Under the rules of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (the "NAIC"), a self-regulatory organization of state insurance commissioners, insurance companies are examined periodically by one or more of the regulatory authorities.
The NAIC adopted, in December of 1992, a "Risk Based Capital for Life and/or Health Insurers Model Act" (the "Model Act") which was designed to identify inadequately capitalized life and health insurers. The Model Act defines two key measures: (i) Adjusted Capital, which equals an insurer's statutory capital and surplus plus its Asset Valuation Reserve, plus half its liability for policyholder dividends, and (ii) Risk Based Capital. Risk Based Capital is determined by a complex formula which is intended to take into account the various risks assumed by an insurer. Should an insurer's Adjusted Capital fall below certain prescribed levels (defined in terms of its Risk Based Capital), the Model Act provides for four different levels of regulatory attention:
"Plan Level": Triggered if an insurer's Adjusted Capital is less than 100% but greater than or equal to 75% of its Risk Based Capital; requires the insurer to submit a plan to the appropriate regulatory authority that discusses proposed corrective action.
"Action Level": Triggered if an insurer's Adjusted Capital is less than 75% but greater than or equal to 50% of its Risk Based Capital; authorizes the regulatory authority to perform a special examination of the insurer and to issue an order specifying corrective actions.
- 7 -
Item 1. (continued)
"Authorized Control Level": Triggered if an insurer's Adjusted Capital is less than 50% but greater than or equal to 35% of its Risk Based Capital; authorizes the regulatory authority to take whatever action it deems necessary.
"Mandatory Control Level": Triggered if an insurer's Adjusted Capital falls below 35% of its Risk Based Capital; requires the regulatory authority to place the insurer under its control.
Since the Adjusted Capital levels of the Company's insurance subsidiaries currently exceed all of the regulatory action levels as defined by the NAIC's Model Act, the Model Act currently has no impact on the Company's operations or financial condition.
The federal government does not directly regulate insurance business, except with respect to Medicare supplement plans; however, legislation and administration policies concerning premiums, age and gender discrimination, financial services and taxation, among other areas, can significantly affect the insurance business.
Banking
First Deposit's consumer banking subsidiaries are subject to federal and state regulation with respect to lending and investment practices, capital requirements, and financial reporting. The primary regulator for these consumer banking subsidiaries is the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
Holding Company
States have enacted legislation requiring registration and periodic reporting by insurance companies domiciled within their respective jurisdictions that control or are controlled by other corporations so as to constitute a holding company system. The Company and its subsidiaries have registered as a holding company system pursuant to such legislation in Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, New York, Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Insurance holding company system statutes and rules impose various limitations on investments in subsidiaries and may require prior regulatory approval for the payment of dividends and other distributions in excess of statutory net gain from operations on an annual noncumulative basis by the registered insurance company to the holding company or its affiliates.
Separate Accounts
Separate accounts of the Company's subsidiaries which offer retail variable annuities are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and are governed by the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pertaining to the tax treatment of annuities.

Item 1. (continued)
COMPETITION
The insurance industry is highly competitive with over 2,000 life insurance companies competing in the United States, some of which have substantially greater financial resources, broader product lines and larger staffs than the Company's insurance subsidiaries. Additionally, life insurance companies face increasing competition from banks, mutual funds and other financial entities for attracting investment funds.
The Company's insurance subsidiaries differentiate themselves through progressive marketing techniques, product features, price, customer service, stability and reputation, as well as competitive credit ratings. The insurance subsidiaries maintain their competitive position by their focus on low risk/high return markets and an efficient cost structure. Other competitive strengths include integrated asset/liability management, risk management and innovative product engineering.
The credit card and consumer revolving loan industry business in which First Deposit's subsidiaries are engaged is also highly competitive. The industry has recently experienced consolidation, lower growth and rising charge-offs. Competitors are increasing their use of advertising, target marketing, pricing competition and incentive programs and have also announced changes in the terms of certain credit cards, including lowering the fixed annual percentage rate charged on balances or converting the annual percentage rate charged on balances from a fixed per annum rate to a variable rate. In addition, other credit card issuers have announced "tiered" or "risk-adjusted" rates under which the annual percentage rate for the issuer's most creditworthy customers is lowered.
In response to the competitive environment, First Deposit's subsidiaries have implemented a variety of new programs to attract and retain customers, including reducing interest rates on selected accounts. First Deposit's subsidiaries have generally retained the right to alter various charges, fees and other terms with respect to consumer credit accounts. In addition, the Banking Group has experienced steady growth in its secured loan products and is increasing its efforts to offer its products to underserved markets.
EMPLOYEES
The total number of persons employed by the Company and its subsidiaries was approximately 9,360 as of December 31, 1993, including an agency sales force of 3,609. The Company has approximately 350 employees.
FOREIGN OPERATIONS
Substantially all of the Company's operations are conducted in the United States.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Board of Directors and Shareholders Capital Holding Corporation
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Capital Holding Corporation and subsidiaries listed in the accompanying Index to financial statements (Item 14(a)). Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Capital Holding Corporation and subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Mandatory pro-rata sinking fund payments are required to redeem 10% of each series of redeemable preferred stock annually, beginning approximately ten years after issuance at $100 per share. As the shares are redeemed, they are retired thereby reducing the total authorized shares. The Company redeemed the following shares of cumulative preferred stock in 1993: 8,200 of the Series B; 15,000 of the Series C; 10,000 of the Series D; 15,000 of the Series E; and 13,000 of the Series G.

The Company shall have the annual non-cumulative option to double any sinking fund payment subject to an aggregate limitation of 25% of the total issue. The redeemable preferred stock is non-callable for approximately ten years and callable thereafter at $105 per share plus accrued dividends. However, in the event the Company is required to obtain approval of a specified percentage of the holders of the issue to effect a merger, consolidation, or sale of assets and such approval is denied, then the Company may redeem the preferred stock in its entirety at $100 per share plus accrued dividends.
