 1. UK intra-group distributions primarily reflect E18m (H1 13: Enil; FY 13: E16m) dividend from LGN and £4m dividend from Nationwide Life (H1 13: £10m; FY 13: £10m) paid to Society. Dividends of $73m (H1 13: $66m; FY 13: $69m) from LGA and E2m (H1 13: E1m; FY 13: E2m) from LGF were paid to the group.          
 2. The transfer to non-covered business represents the IFRS profits arising in the period from the provisions of investment management services by LGIM to the UK covered business, which have been included in the operating profit of the covered business on the look through basis.                                
 3. The other reserve movements of UK covered business primarily reflects the effect of reinsurance arrangement transactions between UK and US covered business. Non-covered business mainly reflects the movement in the savings related share options scheme and the actuarial loss on the pension deficit movement.

 1. UK intragroup distributions reflect dividends of £10m paid to Society from subsidiaries (primarily Nationwide Life). Dividends of $66m from LGA, Enil from LGN and E1m from LGF were also paid to the group.                                                                                                           
 2. The transfer to non-covered business represents the IFRS profits arising in the period from the provisions of investment management services by Legal & General Investment Management to the UK covered business, which have been included in the operating profit of the covered business on the look through basis.  
 3. The other reserve movements reflect the pension deficit movement, the movement of investment project costs from covered to non-covered business and the effect of reinsurance arrangement transactions between UK and US covered business.

 1. UK intra-group distributions reflect a £625m dividend paid from Society to Group, and dividends of £10m paid to Society from subsidiaries (primarily Nationwide Life). Dividends of E16m from LGN are also paid to Society. Dividends of $69m from LGA and E2m from LGF were paid to the group.  
 2. The transfer to non-covered business represents the IFRS profits arising in the period from the provisions of investment management services by LGIM to the UK covered business, which have been included in the operating profit of the covered business on the look through basis.             
 3. The other reserve movements reflect the pension deficit movement, the movement of investment project costs from covered to non-covered business and the effect of reinsurance arrangement transactions between UK and US covered business.
