OneAmerica® Acquires $700 Million Block of 403(b) Business

Indianapolis, July 24, 2007

OneAmerica Financial Partners, Inc. announced today that it has purchased a block of 403(b) business from Transamerica Life Insurance Company through a reinsurance agreement. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

“This acquisition represents another strong step toward growing the OneAmerica enterprise,” said OneAmerica President and CEO Dayton H. Molendorp. “We built our retirement business in the 403(b) market more than 40 years ago, and this transaction underscores our commitment to the retirement services franchise.”

The purchase of this block of fixed annuity 403(b) business is expected to increase scale by adding more than 40,000 new plan participants to the existing 400,000 served currently by the retirement services division of American United Life Insurance Company® (AUL), a OneAmerica company. The transaction will increase the asset base of OneAmerica by approximately $700 million to more than $19 billion.

Specializing in the small-to-mid-size employer market, AUL Retirement Services is currently the 15th largest provider of full service 401(k) plans and the sixth largest provider to nonprofit organizations in the United States. Financial strength along with a customized, consultative business approach helps the division serve more than 13,000 retirement plans with $9 billion in assets.
