Underwriting and Investing
 Activities
  Top line earned premium growth
 driven primarily by new initiatives that
 were launched in the second half of
 2009
  Growth in net investment income
 reflects 11.6% growth in average
 invested assets, off-set by a
 prolonged lower yields. See the
 following slide for combined ratio
 analysis
Net Commissions & Fees
  Decline in fee and commission
 revenue is driven by conversion of
 USSU to our paper
  Excluding the conversion, net
 commissions and fees were up
 slightly in 2011
  The increase in GS&A relates
 primarily to investments in sales
 initiatives to stimulate revenue growth
 in net commissions and fees
Other Expenses
  Reduction in other expenses driven
 by a reduction in the variable
 compensation expense accrual in the
 current quarter, interest rate and
 reduction of scheduled amortization

Loss and LAE Ratio
  The 2011 loss ratio includes 1.9 points of favorable
 development compared to 6.4 points of favorable
 development in 2010.
 
  The accident year loss ratio improved to 63.6%
 from 64.2%, driven primarily by:
  Lower level of losses in 2011 as
 compared to 2010 on certain short-tail
 lines of business
  Anticipated benefit of rate and
 underwriting actions effectuated in 2010
Expense Ratio
  The 2011 expense ratio decreased 0.6 points in
 comparison to the same 2010 period. The
 decrease was primarily driven by:
  Decrease in insurance related
 assessments
  Continued leveraging of fixed costs over
 a larger premium base
