Expense Reclassification
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company made certain reclassifications to the expense
classifications on the Consolidated Statement of Income. These reclassifications were made to
enable the user of the financial statements to calculate the GAAP combined ratio directly from
the Consolidated Statement of Income. As a result, the Consolidated Statement of Income for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 has been reclassified to conform to this revised
presentation. These reclassifications do not change total expenses or consolidated net income
as originally reported for the twelve months ended December 31, 2009. Please refer to Form 8-
k filed on May 3, 2010 for further detail. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, this
refinement resulted in a 1.7 percentage point increase in the expense ratio, a 1.0 percentage
point decrease in the loss and LAE ratio and a decrease of $4.9 million in general selling and
administrative costs.
