This presentation contains Forward Looking Statements and other information designed to convey
our projections and expectations regarding future results. There are a number of factors which
could cause our actual results to vary materially from those projected in this presentation. The
principal risk factors that may cause these differences are described in various documents we file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as our Current Reports on Form 8-K, and our
regular reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K, particularly in “Item 1A, Risk Factors.” Please review
this presentation in conjunction with a thorough reading and understanding of these risk factors.
We especially identify statements concerning our transactions involving Medmarc Insurance Group
and Independent Nevada Doctors Insurance Exchange as Forward Looking Statements and direct
your attention to our news releases issued on June 27, 2012, our Current Report on Form 8K,
issued on June 28, 2012 and our 10K, filed on February 19, 2013 for a discussion of risk factors
pertaining to these transactions and subsequent integration into ProAssurance.
This presentation contains Non-GAAP measures, and we may reference Non-GAAP measures in
our remarks and discussions. A reconciliation of these measures to GAAP measures is available in
our latest quarterly news release, which is available in the Investor Relations section of our website,
www.ProAssurance.com, and in the related Current Report on Form 8K disclosing that release.

Strategies for Future Success
Frank B. O’Neil
Senior Vice-President
 
 

 
Building a Bridge to the Future
  Our core business is at a pivot point
  We are uniquely positioned to succeed by serving the
 emerging market
and remaining legacy business
  Smaller competitors with less experience and capacity
 have decisions to make
17
Legacy business is largely
single-state, solo
and small groups.
A substantial amount of this
business
will remain, but
will demand more from
insurers.
The future will be
dominated by large
groups and institutions,
often multi-disciplinary
and multi-state. They
will demand financial
strength and deep
expertise.
 
 

 
Building a Bridge to the Future
  Larger risks will demand sophisticated
 coverages that span the continuum of healthcare
  Broad healthcare liability experience is our
 foundation
  We added capacity & capability through M&A
 Example: Medmarc, PICA and Mid-Continent

ProAssurance Will Grow Prudently
  ProAssurance is a demonstrated leader in M&A
  We will broaden our lines of coverage as needed
 Healthcare-related
 Through prudent leverage of our expertise and the
 addition of specialized expertise
  The market will firm and we are prepared to
 grow organically
 Past history teaches us the turn will be sudden and
 capital will allow us to respond rapidly
19
 
 

 
Strategy for an Evolving Market
  Shaped by a healthcare landscape that will
 change—with or without federal healthcare
 reform
  Expanding our capabilities and commitment
 across the continuum of healthcare
 Building on two decades of hospital experience
 Recent expansion into products liability for life
 sciences and medical devices through M&A
  Enhancing our historical commitment to
 individual providers and small groups
20
 
 

 
Strategy for an Evolving Market
  Leverage our reach, expertise and financial
 strength with larger accounts
 Largest non-profit healthcare
 system in the US
 Now in Michigan, Florida,
 Illinois, Indiana and Texas
 Insuring Ascension-affiliated
 physicians through coordinated,
 jointly insured programs
  Financial involvement of both entities creates incentive to reduce risk

21
 
 

 
Strategy for an Evolving Market
  Joint physician/hospital insurance products to
 address the unique risk tolerance and claims-
 handling expectation of each insured
  Partnerships with existing physician-focused
 companies to leverage hospital expertise
 Recently announced California venture with
 CAP-MPT: CAPAssurance
  Alternative risk and self-insurance mechanisms
 Captive insurance, risk sharing programs and
 Risk Retention Groups for
 specific specialties or regions
22
 
 

 
Healthcare Reform
  No meaningful change after the election
  Known: More customers for us
 May accelerate the growth of hospital-owned practices and
 consolidation into larger groups
 Provides an opportunity for us due to our geographic reach,
 long-term experience in hospitals and our financial strength
 We have enhanced our ability to write new classes of business
 through acquisitions
 May hasten the need for consolidation of smaller insurers
  Unknown: Effect on the medical/legal environment
 Increased patient frustration with the system
 Possibility of more unexpected outcomes
