ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Protective Life Insurance Company ("Protective") is a wholly-owned and the principal operating subsidiary of Protective Life Corporation ("PLC"), an insurance holding company. Founded in 1907, Protective provides financial services through the production, distribution, and administration of insurance and investment products.
Protective markets individual life and health insurance and annuities nationally through professional, independent general agents. Protective serves the individual payroll deduction market by offering universal life and supplemental insurance, and Protective distributes group life, health, and dental insurance products through full-time field representatives who market to employers and associations through agents and brokers. Protective markets annuities and investment products, credit life, and disability products through broker-dealers and financial institutions to their customers, and Protective sells guaranteed investment contracts.
Over the last twenty-five years PLC has made several acquisitions of smaller insurance companies or blocks of policies. Many of these transactions included Protective. Additionally, PLC has from time to time merged other life insurance companies it has acquired into Protective. PLC acquired a small life insurance company and merged it into Protective in the first quarter of 1992. In the third quarter of 1992, Protective assumed a block of credit life and credit accident and health insurance business. In the third quarter of 1993, Protective acquired a Wisconsin insurer and reinsured a block of universal life policies. In the second quarter of 1994, Protective coinsured a small block of payroll deduction policies. In the fourth quarter of 1994, Protective acquired through coinsurance a block of 130,000 policies.
In 1991, Protective converted preferred stock into 80% of the common stock of Southeast Health Plan, Inc. ("SEHP"). In January 1993, Protective's ownership of SEHP was transferred to PLC.

ITEM 5.
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Protective is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PLC which also owns all of the redeemable preferred stock issued by Protective's subsidiary, American Foundation Life Insurance Company ("American Foundation"). Therefore, neither Protective's Common Stock nor American Foundation's Preferred Stock is publicly traded.
At December 31, 1994, $321 million of consolidated stockholder's equity excluding net unrealized gains and losses represented net assets of Protective that cannot be transferred to PLC in the form of dividends, loans, or advances. Also, distributions, including cash dividends to PLC in excess of approximately $248 million would be subject to Federal income tax at rates then effective. Protective does not anticipate involuntarily paying tax on such distributions.
In addition, insurers are subject to various state statutory and regulatory restrictions on the insurers' ability to pay dividends. In general, dividends up to specific levels are considered ordinary and may be paid thirty days after written notice to the insurance commissioner of the state of domicile unless such commissioner objects to the dividend prior to the expiration of such period. Dividends in larger amounts are considered extraordinary and are subject to affirmative prior approval by such commissioner. The maximum amount that would qualify as ordinary dividends to PLC by its insurance subsidiaries in 1995 is estimated to be $62 million.
The American Foundation Preferred Stock pays, when and if declared, annual minimum cumulative dividends of $0.1 million and noncumulative participating dividends to the extent American Foundation's statutory earnings for the immediately preceding fiscal year exceed $1 million.
In 1994 and 1993, respectively American Foundation paid preferred dividends of $0.9 million and $1.5 million. During 1993, Protective transferred its ownership interest in SEHP to PLC in the form of a common dividend. Protective paid no other dividends to PLC during 1993 or 1994. Protective and American Foundation expect to continue to be able to pay cash dividends, subject to their earnings and financial condition and other relevant factors.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S NARRATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In accordance with General Instruction J(2)(a), Protective includes the following analysis with the reduced disclosure format.
REVENUES
The following table sets forth revenues by source for the periods shown:
Premiums and policy fees increased $51.3 million or 14.6% in 1994 over 1993. In the third quarter of 1993 Protective completed its acquisition of Wisconsin National Life Insurance Company ("Wisconsin National") and reinsured a block of universal life policies. This acquisition and reinsurance arrangement resulted in an increase in premiums and policy fees of $10.5 million in 1994. The reinsurance of a block of payroll deduction policies effective April 1, 1994 resulted in a $7.9 million increase. On October 3, 1994 Protective acquired through coinsurance a block of policies from Reliance Standard Life Insurance Company ("Reliance Standard"), which added $12.5 million of premiums in 1994. Decreases in older acquired blocks of policies represented a $3.1 million decrease in premiums and policy fees. Increases in premiums and policy fees from the Financial Institutions, Group, and Individual Life (formerly, Agency) Divisions represented increases of $10.7 million, $5.1 million, and $7.6 million, respectively.
Net investment income increased $54.8 million or 15.5% in 1994 over 1993 primarily due to an increase in the average amount of invested assets. Invested assets have increased primarily due to receiving annuity and guaranteed investment contract ("GIC") deposits and to acquisitions. Annuity and GIC deposits are not considered revenues in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These deposits are included in the liability section of the balance sheet. Wisconsin National and other recent acquisitions represented $23.9 million of the increase in net investment income in 1994. Protective's percentage earned on average cash and investments was 8.2% for 1994, slightly below the 8.4% for 1993.
Protective generally purchases its investments with the intent to hold to maturity by purchasing investments that match future cash flow needs. However, Protective has classified its fixed maturity investments as "available for sale" because Protective might sell such investments in response to changes in interest rates, needs for liquidity, and changes in the availability of alternative investments. The sales of investments that have occurred generally result from portfolio management decisions to maintain proper matching of assets and liabilities.
In 1994, realized investment gains on the sale of equity securities and other long-term investments of $14.9 million were partially offset by realized investment losses of $8.6 million incurred from sales of fixed maturity investments that occurred to maintain proper matching of assets and liabilities. Protective has established an allowance for uncollectible amounts on investments. The allowance totaled $35.2 million at December 31, 1994. Additions to the allowance are treated as realized investment losses.
Other income consists primarily of fees from administrative-services-only types of group accident and health insurance contracts, and from rental of space in its administrative building to PLC. During 1994, Protective recognized approximately $8.2 million in settlement of litigation in which Protective was a plaintiff relating to an acquisition made in 1974.
INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAX
The following table sets forth income or loss before income tax by business segment for the periods shown:
Pretax earnings from the Acquisitions Division increased $9.3 million in 1994 as compared to 1993. Earnings from the Acquisitions Division are normally expected to decline over time (due to the lapsing of policies resulting from deaths of insureds or terminations of coverage) unless new acquisitions are made. The Wisconsin National acquisition and the reinsurance of a block of universal life policies in 1993 added $9.2 million to the Division's 1994 earnings. The acquisition of a block of policies from Reliance Standard in the 1994 fourth quarter reduced earnings $1.3 million but should contribute to earnings next year. The Division also experienced improved results in its other blocks of acquired policies.
Pretax earnings of the Financial Institutions Division were $1.0 million higher in 1994 as compared to 1993 due to premium growth and improved claims ratios.
Group pretax earnings were $0.7 million higher in 1994 as compared to 1993. Higher traditional group life and health earnings were complemented by higher earnings from the Division's cancer and dental products. The Division's results include approximately $3.0 million of expenses to establish a special marketing unit to sell dental plans through mail and telephone solicitations.
The Guaranteed Investment Contracts ("GIC") Division had pretax earnings of $33.2 million in 1994 and $27.2 million in 1993. GIC earnings have increased due to the growth in GIC deposits placed with Protective. At December 31, 1994, GIC deposits totaled $2.3 billion compared to $2.0 billion one year earlier.
The Individual Life Division had 1994 pretax earnings of $17.2 million, $3.1 million lower than 1993. Mortality experience, while still favorable, was approximately $2.5 million less favorable than 1993. The Division also spent approximately $3.0 million during 1994 to develop new ventures including a special program for parents and guardians of persons with disabilities; a special product for owners of privately held companies; and the sale of policies in the life insurance brokerage market.
The Investment Products Division's pretax earnings were $3.3 million lower in 1994 compared to 1993. These results are after approximately $2.0 million of additional amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs related to the compression of interest spreads caused by rising interest rates on the Division's fixed annuities, and expenses of approximately $4.5 million related to the development and introduction of the
Division's variable annuity. Realized investment losses from the sale of investments to maintain proper matching of assets and liabilities in 1994 were $2.5 million compared to realized investment gains of $2.9 million last year. Fixed annuity deposits totaled $983 million, and variable annuity deposits totaled $171 million at December 31, 1994. Variable annuity deposits of $121 million are reported in the accompanying financial statements as "liabilities related to separate accounts."
The Corporate and Other segment consists of several small insurance lines of business, net investment income and other operating expenses not identified with the preceding business segments (including interest on substantially all debt). Pre-tax losses for this segment were $5.5 million lower in 1994 as compared to 1993. The segment's 1994 results include approximately $8.2 million relating to the settlement of litigation relating to an acquisition made in 1974, which was partially offset by increases in other expenses.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE
The following table sets forth the effective income tax rates for the periods shown:
In August 1993, the corporate income tax rate was increased from 34% to 35%, which resulted in a one-time increase to income tax expense of $1.2 million due to a recalculation of Protective's deferred income tax liability. The effective income tax rate for 1993, excluding the one-time increase, was 33.4%. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the effective income tax rate was 31.1%. Management's estimate of the effective income tax rate for 1995 is 33%.
NET INCOME
The following table sets forth net income for the periods shown:
Compared to 1993, net income in 1994 increased 29.5%, reflecting improved earnings in the Acquisitions, Financial Institutions, Group, and GIC Divisions and Corporate and Other segment, and higher realized investment gains partially offset by lower earnings in the Individual Life and Investment Products Divisions.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan." In October 1994, the FASB amended SFAS No. 114 with the issuance of SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures." Protective anticipates that the impact of adopting SFAS Nos. 114 and 118 on its financial condition will be immaterial.
For additional information regarding recently issued accounting standards see Note A to the consolidated financial statements included herein.

NOTE A -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Protective Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries ("Protective") are prepared on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles. Such accounting principles differ from statutory reporting practices used by insurance companies in reporting to state regulatory authorities. (See also Note B.)
ENTITIES INCLUDED
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts, after intercompany eliminations, of Protective Life Insurance Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries including Wisconsin National Life Insurance Company ("Wisconsin National") and American Foundation Life Insurance Company ("American Foundation"). Protective is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Protective Life Corporation ("PLC"), an insurance holding company.
Additionally, the financial statements include the accounts of majority-owned subsidiaries. The ownership interest of the other stockholders of these subsidiaries is called a minority interest and is reported as a liability of Protective and as an adjustment to income.
PLC has from time to time merged other life insurance companies it has acquired (or formed) into Protective. Acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases by PLC. The results of such mergers have been included in the accompanying financial statements as if the mergers into Protective had occurred on the dates the merged companies were acquired (or formed) by PLC. Such mergers into Protective have been accounted for in a manner similar to that in pooling-of-interests accounting.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In 1992, Protective adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." SFAS No. 106 was accounted for as a change in accounting principle with the cumulative effect reported as a reduction to income.
Protective adopted SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," at December 31, 1993, which requires Protective to carry its investment in fixed maturities and certain other securities at market value instead of amortized cost. As prescribed by SFAS No. 115, these investments are recorded at their market values with the resulting unrealized gains and losses, net of income tax, reported as a component of stockholder's equity reduced by a related adjustment to deferred policy acquisition costs. The market values of fixed maturities increase or decrease as interest rates fall or rise. Therefore, although the adoption of SFAS No. 115 does not affect Protective's operations, its reported stockholder's equity will fluctuate significantly as interest rates change.
In 1994, Protective adopted SFAS No. 119 "Disclosure about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Values of Financial Instruments," which requires additional disclosures related to derivative financial instruments. Also, in 1994, Protective adopted new disclosure requirements required by Statement of Position 94-4 of the Accounting Standards Division of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants concerning disclosures related to Protective's liability for unpaid claims. The adoption of these accounting standards had no effect on Protective's financial statements.
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE A -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INVESTMENTS
For purposes of adopting SFAS No. 115 Protective has classified all of its investments in fixed maturities, equity securities, and short-term investments as "available for sale."
Investments are reported on the following bases less allowances for uncollectible amounts on investments, if applicable:
- Fixed maturities (bonds, bank loan participations, and redeemable preferred stocks) -- at current market value.
- Equity securities (common and nonredeemable preferred stocks) -- at current market value.
- Mortgage loans on real estate -- at unpaid balances, adjusted for loan origination costs, net of fees, and amortization of premium or discount.
- Investment real estate -- at cost, less allowances for depreciation computed on the straight-line method. With respect to real estate acquired through foreclosure, cost is the lesser of the loan balance plus foreclosure costs or appraised value.
- Policy loans -- at unpaid balances.
- Other long-term investments -- at a variety of methods similar to those listed above, as deemed appropriate for the specific investment.
- Short-term investments -- at cost, which approximates current market value.
Substantially all short-term investments have maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition and include approximately $9.7 million in bank deposits voluntarily restricted as to withdrawal.
Protective's balance sheets at December 31, prepared on the basis of reporting investments at amortized cost rather than at market values, are as follows:
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE A -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are recognized in net income using the specific identification basis.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Protective does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Combinations of futures contracts and options on treasury notes are currently being used as hedges for asset/liability management of certain investments, primarily mortgage loans on real estate, and liabilities arising from interest-sensitive products such as guaranteed investment contracts and individual annuities. Realized investment gains and losses on such contracts are deferred and amortized over the life of the hedged asset. Net realized gains of $7.9 million were deferred in 1994. At December 31, 1994, open futures contracts with a notional amount of $137.5 million were in a $0.4 million net unrealized loss position.
Protective uses interest rate swap contracts to convert certain investments from a variable to a fixed rate of interest. At December 31, 1994, related open interest rate swap contracts with a notional amount of $230.0 million were in an $8.9 million net unrealized loss position. At December 31, 1993, related open interest rate swap contracts with a notional amount of $245.0 million were in a $9.0 million net unrealized gain position.
CASH
Cash includes all demand deposits reduced by the amount of outstanding checks and drafts.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are reported at cost. Protective uses both accelerated and straight-line methods of depreciation based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets. Major repairs or improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Other repairs are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of property and equipment sold or retired are removed from the accounts, and resulting gains or losses are included in income.
Property and equipment consisted of the following at December 31:
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE A -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) SEPARATE ACCOUNTS Protective operates separate accounts, some in which Protective bears the investment risk and others in which the investments risk rests with the contractholder. The assets and liabilities related to separate accounts in which Protective does not bear the investment risk are valued at market and reported separately as assets and liabilities related to separate accounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
REVENUES, BENEFITS, CLAIMS, AND EXPENSES
- Traditional Life and Health Insurance Products -- Traditional life insurance products consist principally of those products with fixed and guaranteed premiums and benefits and include whole life insurance policies, term life insurance policies, limited-payment life insurance policies, and certain annuities with life contingencies. Life insurance and immediate annuity premiums are recognized as revenue when due. Health insurance premiums are recognized as revenue over the terms of the policies. Benefits and expenses are associated with earned premiums so that profits are recognized over the life of the contracts. This is accomplished by means of the provision for liabilities for future policy benefits and the amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs.
Liabilities for future policy benefits on traditional life insurance products have been computed using a net level method including assumptions as to investment yields, mortality, persistency, and other assumptions based on Protective's experience modified as necessary to reflect anticipated trends and to include provisions for possible adverse deviation. Reserve investment yield assumptions are graded and range from 2.5% to 7.0%. The liability for future policy benefits and claims on traditional life and health insurance products includes estimated unpaid claims that have been reported to Protective and claims incurred but not yet reported. Policy claims are charged to expense in the period that the claims are incurred.
Activity in the liability for unpaid claims is summarized as follows:
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE A -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - Universal Life and Investment Products -- Universal life and investment products include universal life insurance, guaranteed investment contracts, deferred annuities, and annuities without life contingencies. Revenues for universal life and investment products consist of policy fees that have been assessed against policy account balances for the costs of insurance, policy administration, and surrenders. That is, universal life and investment product deposits are not considered revenues in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Benefit reserves for universal life and investment products represent policy account balances before applicable surrender charges plus certain deferred policy initiation fees that are recognized in income over the term of the policies. Policy benefits and claims that are charged to expense include benefit claims incurred in the period in excess of related policy account balances and interest credited to policy account balances. Interest credit rates for universal life and investment products ranged from 3.0% to 9.4% in 1994.
At December 31, 1994, Protective estimates the fair value of its guaranteed investment contracts to be $2,200 million using discounted cash flows. The surrender value of Protective's annuities which approximates fair value was $1,221 million.
- Policy Acquisition Costs -- Commissions and other costs of acquiring traditional life and health insurance, universal life insurance, and investment products that vary with and are primarily related to the production of new business have been deferred. Traditional life and health insurance acquisition costs are amortized over the premium-payment period of the related policies in proportion to the ratio of annual premium income to total anticipated premium income. Acquisition costs for universal life and investment products are being amortized over the lives of the policies in relation to the present value of estimated gross profits from surrender charges and investment, mortality, and expense margins. Additionally, relating to SFAS No. 115, these costs have been adjusted by an amount equal to the amortization that would have been recorded if unrealized gains or losses on investments associated with Protective's universal life and investment products had been realized.
At the time it adopted SFAS No. 97, "Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Contracts and for Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments," Protective made certain assumptions regarding the mortality, persistency, expenses, and interest rates it expected to experience in future periods. Under SFAS No. 97, these assumptions are to be best estimates and are to be periodically updated whenever actual experience and/or expectations for the future change from initial assumptions. Accordingly, Protective has substituted its actual experience to date for that previously assumed.
The cost to acquire blocks of insurance representing the present value of future profits from such blocks of insurance is also included in deferred policy acquisition costs, discounted at interest rates averaging 15%. For acquisitions occurring after 1988, Protective amortizes the present value of future profits over the premium payment period including accrued interest at 8%. The unamortized present value of future profits for such acquisitions was approximately $84.4 million and $39.4 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. During 1994 $56.0 million of present value of future
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE A -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) profits on acquisitions made during the year was capitalized, and $11.0 million was amortized. The unamortized present value of future profits for all acquisitions was $110.3 million at December 31, 1994 and $69.9 million at December 31, 1993.
PARTICIPATING POLICIES
Participating business comprises approximately 4% of the individual life insurance in force and 4% of the individual life insurance premium income. Policyholder dividends totaled $2.6 million in 1994, 1993, and 1992.
INCOME TAXES
Protective uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Income tax provisions are generally based on income reported for financial statement purposes. Deferred federal income taxes arise from the recognition of temporary differences between income determined for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes. Such temporary differences are principally related to the deferral of policy acquisition costs and the provision for future policy benefits and expenses.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made in the previously reported financial statements and accompanying notes to make the prior year amounts comparable to those of the current year. Such reclassifications had no effect on net income, total assets, or stockholder's equity.
NOTE B -- RECONCILIATION WITH STATUTORY REPORTING PRACTICES Financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principals ("GAAP") differ in some respects from the statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities. The most significant differences are: (a) acquisition costs of obtaining new business are deferred and amortized over the approximate life of the policies rather than charged to operations as incurred, (b) benefit liabilities are computed using a net level method and are based on realistic estimates of expected mortality, interest, and withdrawals as adjusted to provide for possible unfavorable deviation from such assumptions, (c) deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial and taxable earnings, (d) the Asset Valuation Reserve and Interest Maintenance Reserve are restored to stockholder's equity, (e) furniture and equipment, agents' debit balances, and prepaid expenses are reported as assets rather than being charged directly to surplus (referred to as nonadmitted items), (f) certain items of interest income, principally accrual of mortgage and bond discounts are amortized differently, and (g) bonds are stated at market instead of amortized cost.

NOTE C -- INVESTMENT OPERATIONS Major categories of net investment income for the years ended December 31 are summarized as follows:
Realized investment gains (losses) for the years ended December 31 are summarized as follows:
Protective has established an allowance for uncollectible amounts on investments. The allowance totaled $35.2 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993. Additions to the allowance are included in realized investment losses. Without such additions, Protective had realized investment gains of $6.3 million, $13.8 million, and $9.5 million in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.
In 1994, gross gains on the sale of investments available for sale (fixed maturities, equity securities and short-term investments) were $15.2 million and gross losses were $16.4 million. In 1993, gross gains were $8.3 million and gross losses were less than $0.4 million. In 1992, gross gains on the sale of fixed maturities were $12.8 million and gross losses were $1.7 million.

NOTE C -- INVESTMENT OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) The amortized cost and estimated market values of fixed maturities at December 31, by expected maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities are derived from rates of prepayment that may differ from actual rates of prepayment.
The approximate percentage distribution of Protective's fixed maturity investments by quality rating at December 31 is as follows:
At December 31, 1994 and 1993, Protective had bonds which were rated less than investment grade of $82.5 million and $67.3 million, respectively, having an amortized cost of $89.4 million and $66.7 million, respectively. Additionally, Protective had bank loan participations which were rated less than investment grade of $195.1 million and $121.7 million, respectively, having an amortized cost of $195.1 million and $121.7 million, respectively.
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE C -- INVESTMENT OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) The change in unrealized gains (losses), net of income tax, on fixed maturity and equity securities for the years ended December 31 is summarized as follows:
At December 31, 1994, all of Protective's mortgage loans were commercial loans of which 79% were retail, 8% were warehouses, and 7% were office buildings. Protective specializes in making mortgage loans on either credit-oriented or credit-anchored commercial properties, most of which are strip shopping centers in smaller towns and cities. No single tenant's leased space represents more than 5% of mortgage loans. Approximately 84% of the mortgage loans are on properties located in the following states listed in decreasing order of significance: Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Georgia, North Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, Virginia, California, Colorado, Louisiana, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.
Many of the mortgage loans have call provisions after five to seven years. Assuming the loans are called at their next call dates, approximately $107.9 million would become due in 1995, $478.0 million in 1996 to 1999, and $233.9 million in 2000 to 2004.
At December 31, 1994, the average mortgage loan was $1.5 million, and the weighted average interest rate was 9.6%. The largest single mortgage loan was $11.9 million. While Protective's mortgage loans do not have quoted market values, at December 31, 1994 and 1993, Protective estimates the market value of its mortgage loans to be $1,535.3 million and $1,524.2 million, respectively, using discounted cash flows from the next call date.
At December 31, 1994 and 1993, Protective's problem mortgage loans and foreclosed properties totaled $24.0 million and $27.1 million, respectively. Protective expects no significant loss of principal.
Certain investments, principally real estate, with a carrying value of $6.7 million were nonincome producing for the twelve months ended December 31, 1994.
Mortgage loans to Fletcher Bright and Edens & Avant, totaling $99.4 million and $65.6 million, respectively, exceeded ten percent of stockholder's equity at December 31, 1994.
Mortgage-backed securities consist primarily of sequential and planned amortization class (PAC) securities. Mortgage-backed securities issued by Independent National Mortgage Corporation totaling $54.9 million exceeded ten percent of stockholder's equity at December 31, 1994.
Protective believes it is not practicable to determine the fair value of its policy loans since there is no stated maturity, and policy loans are often repaid by reductions to policy benefits. Policy loan interest rates generally range from 4.5% to 8.0%. The fair values of Protective's other long-term investments approximate cost.

NOTE D -- FEDERAL INCOME TAXES Protective's effective income tax rate varied from the maximum federal income tax rate as follows:
In August 1993, the corporate income tax rate was increased from 34% to 35% which resulted in a one-time increase to income tax expense of $1.2 million due to a recalculation of Protective's deferred income tax liability. The effective income tax rate for 1993 of 33.4% excludes the one-time increase.
The provision for federal income tax differs from amounts currently payable due to certain items reported for financial statement purposes in periods which differ from those in which they are reported for income tax purposes.
Details of the deferred income tax provision for the years ended December 31 are as follows:
The components of Protective's net deferred income tax liability as of December 31 were as follows:
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE D -- FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) Under pre-1984 life insurance company income tax laws, a portion of Protective's gain from operations which was not subject to current income taxation was accumulated for income tax purposes in a memorandum account designated as Policyholders' Surplus. The aggregate accumulation in this account at December 31, 1994 was approximately $50.7 million. Should the accumulation in the Policyholders' Surplus account exceed certain stated maximums, or should distributions including cash dividends be made to PLC in excess of approximately $248 million, such excess would be subject to federal income taxes at rates then effective. Deferred income taxes have not been provided on amounts designated as Policyholders' Surplus. Protective does not anticipate involuntarily paying income tax on amounts in the Policyholders' Surplus accounts.
At December 31, 1994 Protective has no material unused income tax loss carryforwards.
Protective's income tax returns are included in the consolidated income tax returns of PLC. The allocation of income tax liabilities among affiliates is based upon separate income tax return calculations.
NOTE E -- DEBT Short-term and long-term debt at December 31 are summarized as follows:
At December 31, 1994, PLC had borrowed under a term note that contains, among other provisions, requirements for maintaining certain financial ratios, and restrictions on indebtedness incurred by PLC's subsidiaries including Protective. Additionally, PLC, on a consolidated basis, cannot incur debt in excess of 50% of its total capital.
Included in indebtedness to related parties are three surplus debentures issued by Protective to PLC. At December 31, 1994, the balance of the three surplus debentures combined was $39.4 million.
Interest expense totaled $5.0 million, $5.0 million, and $3.3 million, in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.
NOTE F -- ACQUISITIONS In July 1993, Protective acquired Wisconsin National Life Insurance Company ("Wisconsin National"). Also in 1993, Protective acquired through reinsurance a block of universal life policies.
In April 1994, Protective acquired through reinsurance a block of payroll deduction policies. In October 1994, Protective acquired through reinsurance a block of individual life insurance policies.
These transactions have been accounted for as purchases, and the results of the transactions have been included in the accompanying financial statements since the effective dates of the agreements.
Summarized below are the consolidated results of operations for 1993 and 1992, on an unaudited pro forma basis, as if the Wisconsin National acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 1992. The pro forma
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE F -- ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED) information is based on Protective's consolidated results of operations for 1993 and 1992 and on data provided by Wisconsin National, after giving effect to certain pro forma adjustments. The pro forma financial information does not purport to be indicative of results of operations that would have occurred had the transaction occurred on the basis assumed above nor are they indicative of results of the future operations of the combined enterprises.
NOTE G -- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Under insurance guaranty fund laws, in most states, insurance companies doing business therein can be assessed up to prescribed limits for policyholder losses incurred by insolvent companies. Protective does not believe such assessments will be materially different from amounts already provided for in the financial statements. Most of these laws do provide, however, that an assessment may be excused or deferred if it would threaten an insurer's own financial strength.
A number of civil jury verdicts have been returned against life and health insurers in the jurisdictions in which Protective does business involving the insurers' sales practices, alleged agent misconduct, failure to properly supervise agents, and other matters. Some of the lawsuits have resulted in the award of substantial judgments against the insurer, including material amounts of punitive damages. In some states, juries have substantial discretion in awarding punitive damages in these circumstances. Protective and its subsidiaries, like other life and health insurers, from time to time are involved in such litigation. To date, no such lawsuit has resulted in the award of any significant amount of damages against Protective. Among the litigation currently pending is a class action filed in the state of Alabama concerning the sale of credit insurance for which a proposed settlement agreement has been filed with the supervising court for approval. Although the outcome of any litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, Protective believes that such litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of Protective.
NOTE H -- STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY AND RESTRICTIONS At December 31, 1994, approximately $321 million of consolidated stockholder's equity excluding net unrealized gains and losses represented net assets of Protective that cannot be transferred in the form of dividends, loans, or advances to PLC. Generally, the net assets of Protective available for transfer to PLC are limited to the amounts that Protective's net assets, as determined in accordance with statutory accounting practices, exceed certain minimum amounts. However, payments of such amounts as dividends may be subject to approval by regulatory authorities.
NOTE I -- REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK PLC owns all of the 2,000 shares of redeemable preferred stock issued by Protective's subsidiary, American Foundation. The entire issue was reissued in 1991 and will be redeemed September 30, 1996 for $1 thousand per share, or $2 million. The stock pays, when and if declared, annual minimum cumulative
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE I -- REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK (CONTINUED) dividends of $50 per share, and noncumulative participating dividends to the extent American Foundation's statutory earnings for the immediately preceding fiscal year exceed $1 million. Dividends of $0.9 million, $1.5 million, and $1.4 million were paid to PLC in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.
NOTE J -- RELATED PARTY MATTERS Receivables from related parties consisted of receivables from affiliates under control of PLC in the amounts of $0.3 million and $0.4 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Protective routinely receives from or pays to affiliates under the control of PLC reimbursements for expenses incurred on one another's behalf. Receivables and payables among affiliates are generally settled monthly.
On August 6, 1990, PLC announced that its Board of Directors approved the formation of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"). On December 1, 1990, Protective transferred to the ESOP 520,000 shares of PLC's common stock held by it in exchange for a note. The outstanding balance of the note, $5.9 million at December 31, 1994, is accounted for as a reduction to stockholder's equity. The stock will be used to match employee contributions to PLC's existing 401(k) Plan. The ESOP shares are dividend paying. Dividends on the shares are used to pay the ESOP's note to Protective.
Protective leases furnished office space and computers to affiliates. Lease revenues were $2.8 million in 1994, $2.8 million in 1993, and $2.6 million in 1992. Protective purchases data processing, legal, investment and management services from affiliates. The costs of such services were $29.8 million, $20.4 million, and $27.5 million in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. Commissions paid to affiliated marketing organizations of $10.1 million, $5.8 million, and $4.8 million in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively, were included in deferred policy acquisition costs.
Certain corporations with which PLC's directors were affiliated paid Protective premiums and policy fees for various types of group insurance. Such premiums and policy fees amounted to $21.1 million, $10.3 million, and $10.9 million in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.
For a discussion of indebtedness to related parties, see Note E.
NOTE K -- BUSINESS SEGMENTS Protective operates predominantly in the life and accident and health insurance industry. The following table sets forth total revenues, income before income tax, and identifiable assets of Protective's business segments. The primary components of revenues are premiums and policy fees, net investment income, and realized investment gains and losses. Premiums and policy fees are attributed directly to each business segment. Net investment income is allocated based on directly related assets required for transacting that segment of business.
Realized investment gains (losses) and expenses are allocated to the segments in a manner which most appropriately reflects the operations of that segment. Unallocated realized investment gains (losses) are deemed not to be associated with any specific segment.
Assets are allocated based on policy liabilities and deferred policy acquisition costs directly attributable to each segment.

NOTE K -- BUSINESS SEGMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE L -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS PLC has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees. The plan is not separable by affiliates participating in the plan. However, approximately 80% of the participants in the plan are employees of Protective. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee's highest thirty-six consecutive months of compensation. PLC's funding policy is to contribute amounts to the plan sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements of ERISA plus such additional amounts as PLC may determine to be appropriate from time to time. Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to service to date but also for those expected to be earned in the future.

NOTE L -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED) The actuarial present value of benefit obligations and the funded status of the plan taken as a whole at December 31 is as follows:
Net pension cost includes the following components for the years ended December 31:
Protective's share of the net pension cost was $1.2 million, $1.5 million, and $0.8 million, in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.
Assumptions used to determine the benefit obligations as of December 31 were as follows:
Assets of the pension plan are included in the general assets of Protective. Upon retirement, the amount of pension plan assets vested in the retiree is used to purchase a single premium annuity from Protective in the retiree's name. Therefore, amounts presented above as plan assets exclude assets relating to retirees.
PLC also sponsors an unfunded Excess Benefits Plan, which is a nonqualified plan that provides defined pension benefits in excess of limits imposed by federal income tax law. At December 31, 1994, the projected benefit obligation of this plan totaled $4.7 million.
PROTECTIVE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN TABLES ARE IN THOUSANDS)
NOTE L -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED) In addition to pension benefits, PLC provides limited health care benefits to eligible retired employees until age 65. At January 1, 1992, PLC recognized a $1.6 million accumulated postretirement benefit obligation, of which $0.9 million relates to current retirees and $0.7 million relates to active employees. The $1.6 million (representing Protective's entire liability for such benefits), net of $0.5 million tax, was accounted for as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle and shown as a reduction to income. The postretirement benefit is provided by an unfunded plan. At December 31, 1994, the liability for such benefits totaled $1.6 million. The expense recorded by Protective was $0.2 million in 1994, 1993 and 1992. PLC's obligation is not materially affected by a 1% change in the health care cost trend assumptions used in the calculation of the obligation.
Life insurance benefits for retirees are provided through the purchase of life insurance policies upon retirement equal to the employees' annual compensation. This plan is partially funded at a maximum of $50,000 face amount of insurance.
In 1990, PLC established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan to match employee contributions to PLC's existing 401(k) Plan. Previously, PLC matched employee contributions in cash. In 1994, a stock bonus was added to the 401(k) Plan for employees who are not otherwise under a bonus plan. Expense related to the ESOP consists of the cost of the shares allocated to participating employees plus the interest expense on the ESOP's note payable to Protective less dividends on shares held by the ESOP. At December 31, 1994, PLC had committed 33,250 shares to be released to fund employee benefits. The expense recorded by PLC for this employee benefit was $0.6 million, $0.2 million and $0.4 million in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively.
NOTE M -- REINSURANCE Protective assumes risks from and reinsures certain parts of its risks with other insurers under yearly renewable term, coinsurance, and modified coinsurance agreements. Yearly renewable term and coinsurance agreements are accounted for by passing a portion of the risk to the reinsurer. Generally, the reinsurer receives a proportionate part of the premiums less commissions and is liable for a corresponding part of all benefit payments. Modified coinsurance is accounted for similarly to coinsurance except that the liability for future policy benefits is held by the original company, and settlements are made on a net basis between the companies. While the amount retained on an individual life will vary based upon age and mortality prospects of the risk, Protective will not carry more than $500,000 individual life insurance on a single risk.
Protective has reinsured approximately $8.6 billion, $7.5 billion, and $7.0 billion in face amount of life insurance risks with other insurers representing $46.0 million, $37.9 million, and $34.8 million of premium income for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. Protective has also reinsured accident and health risks representing $126.5 million, $88.9 million, and $74.6 million of premium income for 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively. In 1994 and 1993, policy and claim reserves relating to insurance ceded of $120.0 million and $97.8 million respectively are included in reinsurance receivables. Should any of the reinsurers be unable to meet its obligation at the time of the claim, obligation to pay such claim would remain with Protective. At December 31, 1994 and 1993, Protective had paid $5.4 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of ceded benefits which are recoverable from reinsurers.
