UTG, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by UTG, Inc. (“UTG”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not be misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2008.

The information furnished reflects, in the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (which include only normal and recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results to be expected for the year or of the Company’s future financial condition.

This document at times will refer to the Registrant’s largest shareholder, Mr. Jesse T. Correll and certain companies controlled by Mr. Correll. Mr. Correll holds a majority ownership of First Southern Funding LLC (“FSF”), a Kentucky corporation, and First Southern Bancorp, Inc. (“FSBI”), a financial services holding company that owns 100% of First Southern National Bank (“FSNB”), which operates in the State of Kentucky. Mr. Correll is Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of UTG and is currently UTG’s largest shareholder through his ownership control of FSF, FSBI and affiliates. At March 31, 2009 Mr. Correll owns or controls directly and indirectly approximately 63% of UTG’s outstanding stock.

UTG, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Continued

At March 31, 2009 consolidated subsidiaries of UTG, Inc. were as depicted on the following organizational chart.

2.	INVESTMENTS

As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, fixed maturities and fixed maturities held for sale represented 59% and 58%, respectively, of total invested assets. As prescribed by the various state insurance department statutes and regulations, the insurance companies’ investment portfolio is required to be invested in investment grade securities to provide ample protection for policyholders. In light of these statutes and regulations, and the Company’s business and investment strategy, the Company generally seeks to invest in United States government and government agency securities and other high quality low risk investments. As of March 31, 2009, the carrying value of fixed maturity securities in default as to principal or interest was immaterial in the context of consolidated assets, shareholders’ equity or results from operations. The investments held for sale are carried at market, with changes in market value directly charged to shareholders’ equity. During the first quarter of 2008, management decided that the remaining fixed maturity investments categorized as held to maturity should be classified as available for sale to provide additional flexibility and liquidity. As such, all fixed maturity investments are available for sale. The remaining fixed maturities in the held to maturity category had become relatively small over recent years. Management determined it would be in the Company’s best interest to be in a position to sell any fixed maturity holding should a need arise rather than having to chose only from a portion of the portfolio.

3.	NOTES PAYABLE

At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had $14,428,282 and $15,616,766, respectively of long-term debt outstanding.

On December 8, 2006, UTG borrowed funds from First Tennessee Bank National Association through execution of an $18,000,000 promissory note. The note is secured by the pledge of 100% of the common stock of UG. The promissory note carries a variable rate of interest based on the 3 month LIBOR rate plus 180 basis points. The initial rate was 7.15%. Interest is payable quarterly. Principal is payable annually beginning at the end of the second year in five installments of $3,600,000. The loan matures on December 7, 2012. The Company borrowed $0 and has made $0 in principal payments in 2009. At March 31, 2009 the outstanding principal balance on this debt was $10,494,454. The next required principal payment on this debt is due in December of 2010.

In addition to the above promissory note, First Tennessee Bank National Association also provided UTG, Inc. with a $5,000,000 revolving credit note. This note is for a one-year term and may be renewed by consent of both parties. The credit note is to provide operating liquidity for UTG, Inc. and replaces a previous line of credit provided by Southwest Bank. Interest bears the same terms as the above promissory note. The collateral held on the above note also secures this credit note. During 2009, UTG, Inc had no borrowings from the note and the Company had no outstanding balance attributable to this note.

On June 1, 2005, UG was extended a $3,300,000 line of credit from the First National Bank of Tennessee. The LOC is for a one-year term from the date of issue. The interest rate on the LOC is variable and indexed to be the lowest of the U.S. prime rates as published in the Wall Street Journal, with any interest rate adjustments to be made monthly. During 2009, UG had no borrowings from the LOC and the Company had no outstanding balance attributable to this LOC.

In November 2007, UG became a member of the FHLB. This membership allows UG access to additional credit up to a maximum of 50% of the total assets of UG. To be a member of the FHLB, UG was required to purchase shares of common stock of FHLB. Borrowing capacity is based on 50 times each dollar of stock acquired in FHLB above the “base membership” amount. UG’s current LOC with the FHLB is $15,000,000. During 2009, UG had no borrowings on the LOC. At March 31, 2009 UG has no outstanding balance attributable to this LOC.

In January 2007, UG became a 51% owner of the newly formed RLF Lexington Properties LLC (“Lexington”). The entity was formed to hold, for investment purposes, certain investment real estate acquired. As part of the purchase price of the real estate owned by Lexington, the seller provided financing through the issuance of five promissory notes of $1,200,000 each totaling $6,000,000. The notes bear interest at the fixed rate of 5%. The notes came due beginning on January 5, 2008, and each January 5 thereafter until 2012 when the final note is repaid. As of March 31, 2009 the outstanding balance was $3,600,000.

On February 7, 2007, HPG Acquisitions (“HPG”), a 74% owned affiliate of the Company, borrowed funds from First National Bank of Midland, through execution of a $373,862 promissory note. The note is secured by real estate owned by HPG. The note bears interest at a fixed rate of 5%. The first payment was due January 15, 2008. There will be 119 regular payments of $3,965 followed by one irregular last payment estimated at $32,424. At March 31, 2009, the outstanding balance on this debt was $333,828.

The consolidated scheduled principal reductions on the notes payable for the next five years are as follows:

Year		Amount
2009	$	23,099
2010	$	4,824,978
2011	$	4,827,008
2012	$	4,523,661
2013	$	31,586
2014	$	34,154

4.	CAPITAL STOCK TRANSACTIONS

A.	Employee and Director Stock Purchase Program

On March 26, 2002, the Board of Directors of UTG adopted, and on June 11, 2002, the shareholders of UTG approved, the UTG, Inc. Employee and Director Stock Purchase Plan. The plan’s purpose is to encourage ownership of UTG stock by eligible directors and employees of UTG and its subsidiaries by providing them with an opportunity to invest in shares of UTG common stock. The plan is administered by the Board of Directors of UTG. A total of 400,000 shares of common stock may be purchased under the plan, subject to appropriate adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or similar recapitalizations resulting in a change in shares of UTG. The plan is not intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code.

The purchase price of shares repurchased under the stock restriction and buy-sell agreement shall be computed, on a per share basis, equal to the sum of (i) the original purchase price(s) paid to acquire such shares from the Holding Company at the time they were sold pursuant to the Plan and (ii) the consolidated statutory net earnings (loss) per share of such shares during the period from the end of the month next preceding the month in which such shares were acquired pursuant to the plan, to the end of the month next preceding the month in which the closing sale of such shares to UTG occurs. The consolidated statutory net earnings per Share shall be computed as the net income of the Holding Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance with statutory accounting principles applicable to insurance companies, as computed by the Holding Company, except that earnings of insurance companies or block of business acquired after the original plan date, November 1, 2002, shall be adjusted to reflect the amortization of intangibles established at the time of acquisition in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), less any dividends paid to shareholders. The calculation of net earnings per Share shall be performed on a monthly basis using the number of common shares of the Holding Company outstanding as of the end of the reporting period. The purchase price for any Shares purchased hereunder shall be paid in cash within 60 days from the date of purchase subject to the receipt of any required regulatory approvals as provided in the Agreement.

The original issue price of shares at the time this program began was established at $12.00 per share. At March 31, 2009, UTG had 104,941 shares outstanding that were issued under this program with a value of $17.01 per share pursuant to the above formula.

B.	Stock Repurchase Program

On June 5, 2001, the Board of Directors of UTG authorized the repurchase in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions of up to $1 million of UTG's common stock. On June 16, 2004, an additional $1 million was authorized for repurchasing shares. On April 18, 2006, an additional $1 million was authorized for repurchasing shares. Repurchased shares are available for future issuance for general corporate purposes. This program can be terminated at any time. Open market purchases are generally limited to a maximum per share price of $8.00. Through May 4, 2009, UTG has spent $2,782,795 in the acquisition of 401,116 shares under this program.

C.	Earnings Per Share Calculations

Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, retroactively adjusted to give effect to all stock splits, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128. At March 31, 2009, diluted earnings per share were the same as basic earnings per share since the Company had no dilutive instruments outstanding.

5.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The insurance industry has experienced a number of civil jury verdicts which have been returned against life and health insurers in the jurisdictions in which the Company 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.

Under the insurance guaranty fund laws in most states, insurance companies doing business in a participating state can be assessed up to prescribed limits for policyholder losses incurred by insolvent or failed insurance companies. Although the Company cannot predict the amount of any future assessments, most insurance guaranty fund laws currently provide that an assessment may be excused or deferred if it would threaten an insurer's financial strength. Mandatory assessments may be partially recovered through a reduction in future premium tax in some states. The Company does not believe such assessments will be materially different from amounts already provided for in the financial statements, though the Company has no control over such assessments.

On June 10, 2002, UTG and Stone River formed an alliance between their respective organizations to provide third party administration (TPA) services to insurance companies seeking business process outsourcing solutions. Stone River is responsible for the marketing and sales function for the alliance, as well as providing the operations processing service for the Company. The Company will staff the administration effort. Stone River is an independent, full-service provider of integrated data processing and information management systems to the financial industry, headquartered in Brookfield, Wisconsin.

In June 2002, the Company entered into a five-year contract with Stone River for services related to its purchase of the “ID3” software system. The contract was amended during 2006 for a five year period ended 2011. Under the contract, the Company is required to pay $8,333 per month in software maintenance costs and a minimum charge of $14,000 per month in offsite data center costs, for a five-year period ending in 2011.

UTG and its subsidiaries are named as defendants in a number of legal actions arising as a part of the ordinary course of business relating primarily to claims made under insurance policies. Those actions have been considered in establishing the Company’s liabilities. Management is of the opinion that the settlement of those actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

UG currently has an unresolved dispute with one of its outside reinsurers. The issue relates to reinsurance premiums. The reinsurer claims UG owes for years 2005 through 2007 in the amount of $987,000. In early 2008, the reinsurer billed UG for these amounts, providing no information or explanation. The related treaty was originally with another outside reinsurer and was acquired by the current reinsurer in a reinsurance block acquisition. The treaty is a yearly renewable term (“YRT”) cession based treaty. UG maintains it has no liability relating to the back billed premium. UG has initiated arbitration according to the treaty to bring resolution to this matter. Final resolution is not anticipated until sometime mid 2009. UG has established a contingent liability of $500,000 relating to this matter to cover costs including legal and arbitration costs.

6.	OTHER CASH FLOW DISCLOSURE

On a cash basis, the Company paid $161,537 and $531,677 in interest expense during the first three months of 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company paid $0 and $446,715 in federal income tax during the first three months of 2009 and 2008, respectively.

7.	CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company maintains cash balances in financial institutions that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company maintains its primary operating cash accounts with First Southern National Bank, an affiliate of UTG, and its largest shareholder, Chairman and CEO, Jesse Correll. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are on deposit with various domestic financial institutions. At times, bank deposits may be in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

9.	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157 which requires enhanced disclosures of assets and liabilities carried at fair value. SFAS 157 established a hierarchical disclosure framework based on the priority of the inputs to the respective valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). An asset or liability’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. SFAS 157 defines the input levels as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. U.S. treasuries are in Level 1 and valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access. Equity securities that are actively traded and exchange listed in the U.S. are also included in Level 1. Equity security valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company can access.

Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities other than quoted prices in Level 1; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets consist of fixed income investments valued based on quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active and investments carried as equity securities that do not have an actively traded market that are valued based on their audited GAAP book value.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The Company does not have any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities.

The following table presents the level within the hierarchy at which the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities are measured on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2009.

	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total
Assets
Fixed Maturities, available for sale	$7,872,233	$178,177,666	$-	$186,049,899
Equity Securities, available for sale	32,409,626	2,650,084	-	35,059,710
Total Financial Assets Carried at Fair Value	$40,281,859	$180,827,750	$-	$221,109,609

10.	NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 Diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises. That diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. This Statement requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided to users of financial statements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The FASB also issued Statement No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). This Statement is effective 60 days after the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to the auditing literature. The Company does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The FASB also issued Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 this Statement requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The FASB also issued Statement No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51. This Statement applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements, except not-for-profit organizations, but will affect only those entities that have an outstanding non-controlling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No. 159”). The Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The Statement was effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company chose not to elect the fair value option – therefore, SFAS No. 159 did not impact its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February of 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff position 157-2 which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for non-financial assets and liabilities which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results from operation, or cash flow.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The purpose of this section is to discuss and analyze the Company's consolidated results of operations, financial condition and liquidity and capital resources. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this report. The Company reports financial results on a consolidated basis. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of UTG and its subsidiaries at March 31, 2009.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Any forward-looking statement contained herein or in any other oral or written statement by the Company or any of its officers, directors or employees is qualified by the fact that actual results of the Company may differ materially from any such statement due to the following important factors, among other risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company's business:

	1.	Prevailing interest rate levels, which may affect the ability of the Company to sell its products, the market value of the Company's investments and the lapse ratio of the Company's policies, notwithstanding product design features intended to enhance persistency of the Company's products.
	2.	Changes in the federal income tax laws and regulations which may affect the relative tax advantages of the Company's products.
	3.	Changes in the regulation of financial services, including bank sales and underwriting of insurance products, which may affect the competitive environment for the Company's products.
	4.	Other factors affecting the performance of the Company, including, but not limited to, market conduct claims, insurance industry insolvencies, insurance regulatory initiatives and developments, stock market performance, an unfavorable outcome in pending litigation, and investment performance.

Update on Critical Accounting Policies

In our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, we identified the accounting policies that are critical to the understanding of our results of operations and our financial position. They relate to deferred acquisition costs (DAC), cost of insurance acquired, assumptions and judgments utilized in determining if declines in fair values of investments are other-than-temporary, and valuation methods for investments that are not actively traded.

We believe that these policies were applied in a consistent manner during the first three months of 2009.

Results of Operations

(a)

Revenues

The Company experienced an increase of approximately $271,000 in premiums and policy fee revenues, net of reinsurance premiums and policy fees, when comparing the first three months of 2009 to the same period in 2008. The increase primarily relates to the termination of TI’s reinsurance agreement in April of 2008. The Company currently writes little new business. Unless the Company acquires a block of in-force business management expects premium revenue to continue to decline on the existing block of business at a rate consistent with prior experience.

The Company’s primary source of new business production comes from internal conservation efforts. Several of the customer service representatives of the Company are also licensed insurance agents, allowing them to offer other products within the Company’s portfolio to existing customers. Additionally, efforts continue to be made in policy retention through more personal contact with the customer including telephone calls to discuss alternatives and reasons for a customer’s request to surrender their policy.

Net investment income decreased approximately 25% when comparing the first three months of 2009 to the same period in 2008. This decrease is primarily related to the Company holding fewer fixed maturity investments and carrying cash balances earning lower rates of interest compared to a year ago. As the bursting of the housing bubble ripples through the global economy, Management has taken steps to avoid catastrophic future losses. As part of this portfolio evaluation process, certain investments were subsequently sold, particularly during the third and fourth quarters of 2008. This has resulted in a higher cash balance earning extremely low rates of interest which will have an immediate impact on income. The Company has begun the process of identifying suitable fixed maturity investments and re-deploying this excess cash, which will have a direct positive impact on net income going forward.

The Company continues to leverage its affiliation with FSNB through the investment in mortgage loans. This has allowed the Company to obtain higher yields than available in the bond market, lengthen the overall portfolio average life and still maintain a conservative investment portfolio. However, due to the decline of the economy and credit crunch, new mortgage loan issues slowed significantly in 2008, and as such this line item is also expected to decline in 2009. A portion of the mortgage loan portfolio contains floating interest rates. With the current state of the U.S. economy and general interest rate cuts, management anticipates yields of its floating rate investments to decline during 2009.

The Company's investments are generally managed to match related insurance and policyholder liabilities. The comparison of investment return with insurance or investment product crediting rates establishes an interest spread. The Company monitors investment yields, and when necessary adjusts credited interest rates on its insurance products to preserve targeted interest spreads, ranging from 1% to 2%. Interest crediting rates on adjustable rate policies have been reduced to their guaranteed minimum rates, and as such, cannot lower them any further. Policy interest crediting rate changes and expense load changes become effective on an individual policy basis on the next policy anniversary. Therefore, it takes a full year from the time the change was determined for the full impact of such change to be realized. If interest rates decline in the future, the Company won’t be able to lower rates and both net investment income and net income will be impacted negatively.

The Company had realized investment losses of $(126,868) in the first three months of 2009 compared to net realized investment gains of $20,183 for the same period in 2008. With 2008 experiencing one of the largest financial crises in our nation’s history and 2009 remaining weak, Management has refused to sit on the sidelines hoping for a recovery and spent a significant amount of time analyzing the Company’s investment holdings and reducing risk. As a result of this, certain fixed maturity investments that were deemed too risky, primarily those related to commercial real estate and financial institutions were sold, predominantly at losses. These losses totaled approximately $(4,200,000). Included in these losses is an approximate $(700,000) loss from writing down a structured security containing trust preferred issues from banks. Amid growing global economic distress, the Company established a defensive posture in exchange traded funds. These investments resulted in gains of approximately $3,500,000, helping to offset the majority of the realized losses. The Company also realized gains on sales of energy related common stocks and in the continued unwinding of its investment in CSI common stock.

With the continued turmoil in financial markets and general decline of the economy, Management continues to view the Company’s investment portfolio with utmost priority. Significant time has been spent internally researching the Company’s risk and communicating with outside investment advisors about the current investment environment and ways to ensure preservation of capital and mitigate any losses. Management has put extensive efforts into evaluating the investment holdings. Additionally, members of the Company’s board of directors and investment committee have been solicited for advice and provided with information. Management has reviewed the Company’s entire portfolio on a security level basis to be sure all understand our holdings, potential risks and underlying credit supporting the investments. Management intends to continue its close monitoring of its bond holdings and other investments for additional deterioration or market condition changes. Future events may result in Management’s determination certain current investment holdings may need to be sold which could result in gains or losses in future periods. Such future events could also result in other than temporary declines in value that could result in future period impairment losses.

There are a number of significant risks and uncertainties inherent in the process of monitoring impairments and determining if impairment is other-than-temporary. These risks and uncertainties related to management’s assessment of other than temporary declines in value include but are not limited to: The risk that Company's assessment of an issuer's ability to meet all of its contractual obligations will change based on changes in the credit characteristics of that issuer; The risk that the economic outlook will be worse than expected or have more of an impact on the issuer than anticipated; The risk that fraudulent information could be provided to the Company's investment professionals who determine the fair value estimates.

Other income has remained consistent over the periods presented. Other income primarily represents revenues received relating to the performance of administrative work as a TPA for unaffiliated life insurance companies. The Company receives monthly fees based on policy in force counts and certain other activity indicators such as number of policies issued. The Company has not had any substantial change in its TPA client base or activity related fees of existing clients during the periods presented in the financial statements. Management remains committed to the pursuit of additional TPA clients and believes this area continues to show potential for growth.

(b)

Expenses

Life benefits, claims and settlement expenses net of reinsurance benefits and claims, increased approximately 8% in the first three months of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Policy claims vary from period to period and therefore, fluctuations in mortality are to be expected and are not considered unusual by management. Overall, reserves continue to increase on in-force policies as the average age of the insured increases.

Commissions and amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs increased approximately $587,000 in the first three months of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. AC and TI reinsurance agreements that are in place with outside companies drive the majority of this number. TI’s reinsurance agreement terminated in April of 2008. Another significant factor is attributable to the Company paying fewer commissions since the Company writes very little new business and renewal premiums on existing business continue to decline. Most of the Company’s agent agreements contained vesting provisions, which provide for continued compensation payments to agents upon their termination subject to certain minimums and often limited to a specific period of time. Another factor is attributable to normal amortization of the deferred policy acquisition costs asset. The Company reviews the recoverability of the asset based on current trends and known events compared to the assumptions used in the establishment of the original asset. No impairments were recorded in any of the periods presented.

Operating expenses decreased 11% in the first three months of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. The Company continually monitors expenditures looking for savings opportunities. Management places significant emphasis on expense monitoring and cost containment. Maintaining administrative efficiencies directly impacts net income.

(c)	Net income

The Company had a net loss of $(1,269,509) in the first three months of 2009 compared to a net loss of $(140,552) for the same period in 2008. The decrease over the same period last year is mainly attributable to lower investment income.

Financial Condition

Total shareholders’ equity increased approximately $471,000 as of March 31, 2009 compared to December 31, 2008. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in the market value of the Company’s fixed maturity and common stock investments that was included in the accumulated other comprehensive income.

Investments represent approximately 69% and 67% of total assets at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Accordingly, investments are the largest asset group of the Company. The Company's insurance subsidiaries are regulated by insurance statutes and regulations as to the type of investments that they are permitted to make and the amount of funds that may be used for any one type of investment. In light of these statutes and regulations, the majority of the Company’s investment portfolio is invested in high quality, low risk investments.

As of March 31, 2009, the carrying value of fixed maturity securities in default as to principal or interest was immaterial in the context of consolidated assets, shareholders’ equity or results from operations. To provide additional flexibility and liquidity, the Company has identified all fixed maturity securities as "investments held for sale". Investments held for sale are carried at market, with changes in market value charged directly to shareholders' equity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has three principal needs for cash - the insurance companies' contractual obligations to policyholders, the payment of operating expenses and debt service. Cash and cash equivalents as a percentage of total assets were approximately 6% and 9% as of March 31, 2009, and December 31, 2008, respectively. Fixed maturities as a percentage of total assets were approximately 41% and 39% as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

The Company currently has access to funds for operating liquidity. UTG has a $5,000,000 revolving credit note with First Tennessee Bank National Association. UG has a $3,300,000 line of credit with First National Bank of Tennessee. In addition, UG is also a member of the FHLB which allows UG access to credit. UG’s current line of credit with the FHLB is $15,000,000. At March 31, 2009, there were no outstanding borrowings attributable to the lines of credit.

Future policy benefits are primarily long-term in nature and therefore, the Company's investments are predominantly in long-term fixed maturity investments such as bonds and mortgage loans which provide sufficient return to cover these obligations.

Many of the Company's products contain surrender charges and other features which reward persistency and penalize the early withdrawal of funds. With respect to such products, surrender charges are generally sufficient to cover the Company's unamortized deferred policy acquisition costs with respect to the policy being surrendered.

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $(5,424,360) and $10,876 for the three months ending March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $(3,963,623) and $1,739,401 for the three month periods ending March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The most significant aspects of cash used in investing activities are the fixed maturity transactions. The Company purchased fixed maturities in the amount of $28,228,243 and $0 in the first three months of 2009 and 2008, respectively. In addition, the Company purchased $18,826,433 and $708,281 of fixed maturities in 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Net cash (used in) financing activities was $(1,054,325) and $(2,018,933) for the three month period ending March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The most significant factor in cash used in financing activities was payments on notes payable. The Company made payments on notes payable in the amount of $1,188,484 and 1,211,625 in the first three months of 2009 and 2008 respectively.

At March 31, 2009, the Company had $14,428,282 of long-term debt outstanding. At March 31, 2008, the Company had $18,702,721 of debt outstanding. The debt is mainly attributable to the acquisition of Acap at the end of 2006.

UTG is a holding company that has no day-to-day operations of its own. Funds required to meet its expenses, generally costs associated with maintaining the company in good standing with states in which it does business and the servicing of its debt, are primarily provided by its subsidiaries. On a parent only basis, UTG's cash flow is dependent on management fees received from its insurance subsidiaries, stockholder dividends from its subsidiaries and earnings received on cash balances. At March 31, 2009, substantially all of the consolidated shareholders equity represents net assets of its subsidiaries. The Company's insurance subsidiaries have maintained adequate statutory capital and surplus. The payment of cash dividends to shareholders by UTG is not legally restricted. However, the state insurance department regulates insurance company dividend payments where the company is domiciled. No dividends were paid to shareholders in 2008 or the first three months of 2009.

UG is an Ohio domiciled insurance company, which requires five days prior notification to the insurance commissioner for the payment of an ordinary dividend. Ordinary dividends are defined as the greater of: a) prior year statutory earnings or b) 10% of statutory capital and surplus. At December 31, 2008 UG statutory shareholders' equity was $27,483,161. At December 31, 2008, UG statutory net income was $4,825,058. Extraordinary dividends (amounts in excess of ordinary dividend limitations) require prior approval of the insurance commissioner and are not restricted to a specific calculation. There were no dividends paid during 2009.

AC and TI are Texas domiciled insurance companies, which requires eleven days prior notification to the insurance commissioner for the payment of an ordinary dividend. Ordinary dividends are defined as the greater of: a) prior year statutory earnings or b) 10% of statutory capital and surplus. At December 31, 2008 AC and TI statutory shareholders' equity was $7,345,919 and $2,565,614, respectively. At December 31, 2008, AC and TI statutory net income was $1,164,325 and $48,944, respectively. Extraordinary dividends (amounts in excess of ordinary dividend limitations) require prior approval of the insurance commissioner and are not restricted to a specific calculation. There were no dividends paid during 2009.

Management believes the overall sources of liquidity available will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s financial obligations.

Accounting Developments

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk relates, broadly, to changes in the value of financial instruments that arise from adverse movements in interest rates, equity prices and foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed principally to changes in interest rates, which affect the market prices of its fixed maturities available for sale and its variable rate debt outstanding. The Company’s exposure to equity prices and foreign currency exchange rates is immaterial. The information presented below is in U.S. dollars, the Company’s reporting currency.

Interest rate risk

The Company’s exposure to interest rate changes results from a significant holding of fixed maturity investments and mortgage loans on real estate, all of which comprised approximately 72% of the investment portfolio as of March 31, 2009. These investments are mainly exposed to changes in treasury rates. The fixed maturities investments include U.S. government bonds, securities issued by government agencies, mortgage-backed bonds and corporate bonds. Approximately 70% of the fixed maturities we owned at March 31, 2009 are instruments of the United States government or are backed by U.S. government agencies or private corporations carrying the implied full faith and credit backing of the U.S. government.

To manage interest rate risk, the Company performs periodic projections of asset and liability cash flows to evaluate the potential sensitivity of the investments and liabilities. Management assesses interest rate sensitivity with respect to the available-for-sale fixed maturities investments using hypothetical test scenarios that assume either upward or downward 100-basis point shifts in the prevailing interest rates. The following tables set forth the potential amount of unrealized gains (losses) that could be caused by 100-basis point upward and downward shifts on the available-for-sale fixed maturities investments as of March 31, 2009:

Decreases in Interest Rates

Increases in Interest Rates

200 Basis Points	100 Basis Points	100 Basis Points	200 Basis Points
$ 12,255,000	$ 5,804,000	$ (5,472,000)	$ (12,874,000)

While the test scenario is for illustrative purposes only and does not reflect our expectations regarding future interest rates or the performance of fixed-income markets, it is a near-term change that illustrates the potential impact of such events. Due to the composition of the Company’s book of insurance business, management believes it is unlikely that the Company would encounter large surrender activity due to a significant interest rate increase. Such an increase would force the Company to dispose fixed maturities at a loss.

There are no fixed maturities or other investments that management classifies as trading instruments. At March 31, 2009 there was one investment in a derivative instrument carried at $305,000. At December 31, 2008, there were no investments in derivative instruments.

The Company had no capital lease obligations, material operating lease obligations or purchase obligations outstanding as of March 31, 2009.

The Company currently has $14,428,282 of debt outstanding.

Equity risk

Equity risk is the risk that the Company will incur economic losses due to adverse fluctuations in a particular stock. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the fair value of our equity securities was $30,059,710 and $30,636,500, respectively. As of March 31, 2009, a 10% decline in the value of the equity securities would result in an unrealized loss of $3,005,971, as compared to an estimated unrealized loss of $3,063,650 as of December 31, 2008. The selection of a 10% unfavorable change in the equity markets should not be construed as a prediction by the Company of future market events, but rather as an illustration of the potential impact of such an event.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Within the 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO") and the Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in alerting them on a timely basis to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s periodic reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation.
