Union Security Life Insurance Company of New York
Notes to the Financial Statements
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 (Unaudited)
1. Nature of Operations
Union Security Life Insurance Company of New York (the “Company”), formerly know as First Fortis Life Insurance Company, is a provider of life and health insurance products. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Assurant, Inc. (the “Parent”). Assurant, Inc. is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol AIZ.
The Company is domiciled in New York and is qualified to sell life, health and annuity insurance in the state of New York. The Company’s revenues are derived principally from group employee benefits and credit products. The Company offers insurance products, including life insurance policies, annuity contracts, and group life, accident and health insurance policies.
Effective September 6, 2005, the Company changed its name from First Fortis Life Insurance Company in conjunction with the Parent’s initial public offering on February 5, 2004.
2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates when recording transactions resulting from business operations based on information currently available. The most significant items on the Company’s balance sheet that involve accounting estimates and actuarial determinations are goodwill, reinsurance recoverables, valuation of investments, deferred acquisition costs (“DAC”), liabilities for future policy benefits and expenses, claims and benefits payable and taxes. The accounting estimates and actuarial determinations are sensitive to market conditions, investment yields, mortality, morbidity, commissions and other acquisition expenses, and terminations by policyholders. As additional information becomes available or actual amounts are determinable, the recorded estimates will be revised and reflected in operating results. Although some variability is inherent in these estimates, the Company believes the amounts provided are reasonable and adequate.
Dollar amounts are presented in U.S. dollars and all amounts are in thousands, except for number of shares.
3. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements” (“FAS 154’’). FAS 154 changes the accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle. Prior to FAS 154, the majority of voluntary changes in accounting principles were required to be recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment within net income during the period of the change. FAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior period financial statements unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. FAS 154 is effective for accounting changes made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 but does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements. The Company does not believe the adoption of FAS 154 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

4. Retirement and Other Employee Benefits
The Parent sponsors a defined benefit pension plan and certain other post retirement benefits covering employees and certain agents who meet eligibility requirements as to age and length of service. Plan assets of the defined benefit plans are not specifically identified by each participating subsidiary. Therefore, a breakdown of plan assets is not reflected in these financial statements. The Company has no legal obligation for benefits under these plans. The benefits are based on years of service and career compensation. Assurant’s pension plan funding policy is to contribute amounts to the plan sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements set forth in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, plus additional amounts as Assurant may determine to be appropriate from time to time up to the maximum permitted, and to charge each subsidiary an allocable amount based on its employee census. Pension cost allocated to the Company amounted to approximately $93 and $85 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
The Company participates in a contributory profit sharing plan, sponsored by our Parent, covering employees and certain agents who meet eligibility requirements as to age and length of service. Benefits are payable to participants on retirement or disability and to the beneficiaries of participants in the event of death. For employees hired on or before December 31, 2000, the first 3% of an employee’s contribution is matched 200% by the Company. The second 2% is matched 50% by the Company. For employees hired after December 31, 2000, the first 3% of an employee’s contribution is matched 100% by the Company. The second 2% is matched 50% by the Company. The amount expensed was approximately $23 and $4 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
With respect to retirement benefits, the Company participates in other health care and life insurance benefit plans (postretirement benefits) for retired employees, sponsored by our Parent. Health care benefits, either through the Parent’s sponsored retiree plan for retirees under age 65 or through a cost offset for individually purchased Medigap policies for retirees over age 65, are available to employees who retire on or after January 1, 1993, at age 55 or older, with 10 years or more service. Life insurance, on a retiree pay all basis, is available to those who retire on or after January 1, 1993.
5. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is regularly involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business, both as a defendant and as a plaintiff. The Company may from time to time be subject to a variety of legal and regulatory actions relating to the Company’s current and past business operations. While the Company cannot predict the outcome of any pending or future litigation, examination or investigation, the Company does not believe that any pending matter will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
The Company’s Parent has been part of industry-wide investigations into certain loss mitigation products and finite risk insurance. The Parent has previously received subpoenas for information from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. A disclosure of these investigations is provided in the Parent’s Quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2005.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations.
(Dollar amounts in thousands except share data.)
     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) addresses the financial condition of Union Security Life Insurance Company of New York (USLIC) as of September 30, 2005, compared with December 31, 2004, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared with the equivalent 2004 periods. This discussion should be read in conjunction with USLIC’s MD&A and annual audited financial statements as of December 31, 2004 included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (hereafter referred to as the Company’s 2004 Form 10-K) and unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
     Some of the statements in this MD&A and elsewhere in this report may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words. Any forward-looking statements contained in this report are based upon our historical performance and on current plans, estimates and expectations. The inclusion of this forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by us will be achieved. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in this report. If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary materially from what we projected. Any forward-looking statements you read in this report reflect our current views with respect to future events and are subject to these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, financial condition, growth strategy and liquidity.

For The Three Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to The Three Months Ended September 30, 2004.
Net Income
     Net income increased by $211, or 7%, to $3,233 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $3,022 for the three months ended September 30, 2004. The increase in net income was primarily due to a decrease in policyholder benefits of $2,126, partially offset by a decrease in net realized gains on investments of $518, an increase in selling, underwriting and general expenses of $368 and an increase in the effective tax rate primarily due to a release in the third quarter of 2004 of approximately $400 of previously provided tax accruals which were no longer needed.
Total Revenues
     Total revenues decreased by $536, or 3%, to $17,607 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $18,143 for the three months ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in revenues was due to a decrease in net realized gains on investments of $518 and a decrease in net investment income of $126 due to lower invested assets, partially offset by an increase in net earned premiums and other considerations of $249.

The decrease in expenses was primarily due to a decrease in policyholder benefits of $2,126 driven by favorable claims experience in our small employer group health business.
For The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004.
Net Income
     Net income decreased by $517, or 6%, to $8,254 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $8,771 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decrease in net earned premiums and other considerations of $1,224, a decrease in net investment income of $1,053, and a decrease in net realized gains on investments of $589, partially offset by a decrease in policyholder benefits of $2,922.
Total Revenues
     Total revenues decreased by $3,256, or 6%, to $53,384 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $56,640 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Net earned premiums and other considerations decreased by $1,224 due to lower group life and dental premiums as a result of lower sales, partially offset by growth in our disability business written through alternate distribution sources. The decrease was also due to a decrease in net realized gains on investments of $589 and a decrease in net investment income of $1,053 due to lower invested assets. Amortization on deferred gains on disposal of businesses also decreased by $235 due to the continued decline in amortization of the deferred gains from the business ceded to The Hartford in 2001 and John Hancock in 2000.
Total Benefits, Losses and Expenses
     Total benefits, losses and expenses decreased by $3,289, or 7%, to $40,711 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 from $44,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to a decrease in policyholder benefits of $2,922 driven by lower dental benefits paid as a result of fewer sales, and favorable claims experience in our small employer group health business, offset by an increase in disability benefits driven by lower disability claim closures.
