These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules included in Exhibits I and II are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations of Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.

Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description. (a) General The Plan is a defined contribution profit-sharing plan sponsored by Great West Casualty Company (the Company), covering all eligible employees of that Company as well as its affiliates, American General Agency, Central Data Services, Joe Morten & Son,Inc., Midwest Insurance, Inc., Motor-Ways, Inc., and Truckmen Underwriters Agency, Inc. It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). (b) Contributions and Participants Accounts Participants may contribute 1% to 6% of their annual wages to the Plan. In 1996 and 1995, the Company made matching contributions to the Plan equal to 25% of the employees' pre-tax contribution amount. Participants may elect to have their contributions invested in any one or more of the ten separate investment funds (CIGNA Guaranteed Long-Term Account, CIGNA Guaranteed Short-Term Account, CIGNA Separate Account - Fidelity Advisor Balanced Account, CIGNA Separate Account - Fidelity Advisor Growth Opportunities Account, CIGNA Separat Account - INVESCO Total Return Account, CIGNA Separate Account - Neuberger & Berman Trust Account, CIGNA Separate Account - PBHG Growth Account, CIGNA Separate Account - Janus Worldwide Account, CIGNA Separate Account - Stock Market Index Account and ORI Stock Account). The Company may also contribute an additional nonmatching amount out of its current or accumulated profits, if any, as determined by the Company. Each participant's account is credited with participant's contribution, and allocation of (a) Company's contributions as described above, and (b) plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant account balances as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's account. (c) Eligibility and Vesting Under the terms of the Plan, an employee shall become eligible for inclusion in the Plan upon reaching age 21 with completion of 1,000 hours of service during the twelve month period beginning with date of hire. Minimum age for vesting service is 18 years. All employee and employer matching contributions are immediately 100% vested. Participants become fully vested in the value of the discretionary contributions after 7 years of credited service. (d) Payment of Benefits On termination of service, a participant may elect to leave funds in the Plan or receive either a lump-sum payment or purchase of a single premium life annuity contract. Net assets at December 31, 1996 and 1995, include funds totaling $256,735 and $210,450, respectively, which represent the account balance of retired and terminated participants who have elected to leave the funds in the Plan upon retirement or termination. 4 GREAT WEST CASUALTY COMPANY PROFIT SHARING PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN, Continued (e) Forfeitures All forfeitures are segregated until the employee has attained a five year break-in-service. At that time forfeitures are allocated pro-rata to each participant account according to their respective earnings for that year. There were unallocated assets of $409,520 and $311,526 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively related to these forfeitures. (f) Loans Participants may elect to borrow from the plan based upon specified conditions. A participant may have only one outstanding loan at any time which must be for at least $1,000. In no case shall the aggregate amount lent to a participant exceed the lesser of the following: (a) $50,000 reduced by the excess of the highest outstanding balance of loans from the plan during the one year period ending on the date before the date of the loan to the participant; (b) 50% of the participant's vested interest; or (c) 100% of the sum of the balances in the participant's pre-tax contribution and matching contribution accounts. (g) Administrative Expenses The Company provides administrative support for the plan and pays for administrative trustee fees. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis. Benefits are recorded when paid. The unit value of each account is determined at the close of each business day.The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (b) Investments Old Republic International Corporation stock is stated at the closing market value on the last business day of the year. The Plan presents in the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits the net appreciation in the fair value of the Old Republic Stock Account, which consists of the realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of this investment. The Plan entered into a group annuity contract with Connecticut General Life Insurance Company (CGLIC). CGLIC maintains contributions in a contract holder's account and such contributions are allocated to separate investment funds according to participant elections. The accounts are credited with earnings on the underlying investments and charged for Plan benefits paid and deductions for investment expenses, risk, profit and annual management fees charged by CGLIC. The General Accounts are included in the financial statements at contract value and the Separate Accounts are included in the financial statements at fair value at December 31, 1996 and 1995 as reported to the Plan by CGLIC. Realized investment gains and losses in the separate investment funds are recognized in the year of sale. 5 GREAT WEST CASUALTY COMPANY PROFIT SHARING PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 3 - ASSETS GREATER THAN 5% OF PLAN ASSETS Investments that represent 5% or more of the plan assets are as follows: December 31, --------------------------- 1996 1995 CIGNA Guaranteed Long Term $15,017,842 $14,538,432 CIGNA Stock Market Index 1,469,253 595,975 Fidelity Growth Opportunity 2,785,498 2,146,541 Old Republic International Stock 1,455,495 1,134,322 NOTE 4 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The Plan has received an Internal Revenue Service Determination Letter dated March 20, 1995, which states that it qualifies under the provisions of Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC).
