| **Signature of Reporting Person | Date |
| * | If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v). |
| ** | Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a). |
| (1) | On February 27, 2004, Reporting Person was granted 13,300 (target) performance-based restricted stock units (the "2004 PBRSUs") pursuant to Issuer's Amended Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (the "1996 Plan"). Provided the Issuer's property and casualty operations achieve a specified return on equity for the year 2006 (the "2006 ROE target") and Reporting Person remains continuously employed by the Issuer until such date, the 2004 PBRSUs vest after three years from the grant date (2/27/07). The actual 2004 PBRSU award could be as low as zero, and as high as 150% of the target, based on the return on equity actually achieved. On February 15, 2007, the Issuer determined that the 2006 ROE Target had been achieved at a level that entitled holders of the 2004 PBRSUs to 137.5% of their target award. Accordingly, provided Reporting Person remains employed by the Issuer on the vesting date (2/27/07), Reporting Person will be issued 18,288 shares of common stock. |
| (2) | On February 14, 2006, Reporting Person was granted 10,000 individual goal-based performance-based restricted stock units (the "Individual Goal PBRSUs") pursuant to the 1996 Plan. The Individual Goal PBRSUs vest on the second anniversary of the grant date (02/14/08), but only if certain pre-established individual performance measures are achieved during 2006 (the "Individual Goals"). On February 15, 2007, the Issuer determined that the Individual Goals had been achieved. Accordingly, provided Reporting Person remains employed by the Issuer on the vesting date (02/14/08), Reporting Person will be issued 10,000 shares of common stock. |
| (3) | Additional 29 shares held indirectly in 401(k) plan. |
| (4) | Transactions involved amendment of an outstanding option, resulting in the deemed cancellation of the "old" option and the grant of a replacement option. The amendment provides that in the event Reporting Person's employment with the Issuer is terminated, whether voluntary or involuntary (other than for Cause, due to death, disability, retirement or in the event of a change in control), the portion of the stock option that is vested immediately prior to termination shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) 60 days following he date of termination, or (ii) the expiration date of the stock option. The amendment was made to conform the post-termination (excluding termination due to death, disability, retirement or in the event of a change in control) exercise rights under the 1996 Plan with such rights under the Issuer's 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan. All other terms and conditions of the option, including exercise price and vesting terms remained unchanged. |
| (5) | Option to Purchase granted pursuant to the 1996 Plan, which option vested 20% annually during each of the first 5 years following grant date (02/21/99). |
| (6) | Option to Purchase granted pursuant to the 1996 Plan, which option vested 25% on 01/02/03; 25% on 01/02/04; and the remaining 50% on 01/02/05. |
| (7) | Option to Purchase granted pursuant to the 1996 Plan, which option vested 25% on 02/27/05; 25% on 02/27/06; and the remaining 50% will vest on 02/27/07. |
| (8) | Option to Purchase granted pursuant to the 1996 Plan, which option vested 25% on 02/07/06; 25% on 02/07/07; and the remaining 50% will vest on 02/07/08. |
