                        EXPLANATORY NOTE

    On November 24, 1999, Jefferson-Pilot Corporation ("Jefferson
Pilot") filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-
91647) (the "Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, to register shares of Jefferson Pilot common stock to be
issued to stockholders of The Guarantee Life Companies Inc. ("Guarantee")
in connection with Jefferson Pilot's acquisition of Guarantee (the "Merger")
pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger among
Jefferson Pilot, Guarantee and LG Merger Corp., dated as of September 19,
1999, as amended and restated as of October 14, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement").
The SEC declared the Registration Statement effective on November 24, 1999.

    Jefferson Pilot has elected to pay the consideration for the Merger
in cash rather than shares of Jefferson Pilot common stock, in accordance
with the provisions of the Merger Agreement.  Accordingly, Jefferson Pilot
hereby removes from registration all of the shares of Jefferson Pilot common
stock that were registered pursuant to the Registration Statement.

                                    -2-
