         This Amendment No. 5 to the Schedules 13D dated March 27, 1997, filed
by The Maclellan Foundation, Inc., Hugh O. Maclellan, Jr., Kathrina H. Maclellan
and Robert H. Maclellan, (collectively, the "Principals") and certain other
persons shown in such Schedule, is being filed as a result of certain changes in
the beneficial ownership of UNUMProvident Corporation ("UNUMProvident") common
stock, held directly by the Reporting Persons or held by Trusts for which the
Reporting Person holds beneficial ownership.

         Item 4.  Purpose of the Transaction.

         ITEM 4 IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS:

         This Amendment is being filed to reflect various sales, gifts and
decreases in beneficial ownership of UNUMProvident common stock of the Reporting
Persons that have occurred since the last filing as of December 31, 1999.

         Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         ITEM 5 IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS:

         (a)      Reference is made to the cover page in respect of each
Reporting Person.

         The aggregate amount of shares of common stock listed in Item 11 of the
cover page as beneficially owned by Hugh O. Maclellan, Jr. does not include
62,143 shares of common stock voted solely by his spouse, Nancy B. Maclellan, of
which beneficial interest is disclaimed.

         The combined shareholdings of the Reporting Persons plus Charlotte M.
Heffner, a Reporting Person and a trustee of the Maclellan Foundation, aggregate
12.2% of the stock after eliminating shareholdings duplicated.

         Each Reporting Person hereby disclaims any assertion or presumption
that it and any other persons constitute a "group" as such term is used in
Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission
thereunder. The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed to be an
admission that any Reporting Person is a member of a group, however, if any of
the Reporting Persons are deemed to be members of a "group" with other Reporting
Persons for purposes of Section 13(d), the Schedule 13Ds filed by each such
Reporting Person should be read together as a group Schedule 13D filing.
