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, 2001. Included in the beneficial ownership of each Reporting Person are UNUMProvident common stock held by The Maclellan Foundation, Inc. The Foundation has made and will continue to make dispositions of UNUMProvident common stock both by gifts to charitable entities and by sale of shares on the open market.

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 9.69% of the stock after eliminating shareholdings duplicated. The combined shareholdings of the Reporting Persons including the shares held by their descendants and trusts established for their descendants aggregate 10.3%.

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.
