The Phoenix Companies Extends Consent Solicitation Relating to 7.45% Quarterly Interest Bonds due 2032

Hartford, Conn., Feb. 10, 2016 – The Phoenix Companies, Inc. (“Phoenix” or the “company”) (NYSE:PNX) today announced that it has extended the expiration date of its previously announced solicitation of bondholders holding its 7.45% Quarterly Interest Bonds due 2032 (CUSIP 71902E 20 8) (NYSE:PFX) to amend the indenture governing the bonds.

The solicitation was previously scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Feb. 9, 2016, and the consents received as of that time represent significantly more than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding bonds. However, on Feb. 9, 2016, Phoenix became aware of a lawsuit brought against it relating to the solicitation. Phoenix believes the case is without merit and is extending the solicitation to evaluate its options.
