             PHYSICIANS INSURANCE COMPANY OF OHIO AND SUBSIDIARIES

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               -----------------

1.      Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
        with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
        information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
        footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
        complete financial statements. The interim financial statements include
        all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring, in nature)
        which, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make the
        financial statements not misleading. For further information, refer to
        the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the
        Company's Form S-4 Registration Statement effective October 3, 1996.
        Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the current
        presentation.

2.      Subsequent Events

        On May 9, 1996, Physicians Insurance Company of Ohio ("PICO"), Guinness
        Peat Group plc ("GPG"), and the Ondaatje Corporation ("TOC") (TOC
        subsequently changed its name to Global Equity Corporation) entered into
        an agreement whereby GPG agreed to sell 850,000 Class A Shares of PICO
        common stock to TOC in two blocks, subject to regulatory approval at an
        average price of approximately US $18.00 per share. GPG agreed to sell
        the shares to TOC at a discount to market due to their status as
        restricted stock and in consideration of the quantity of shares to be
        purchased. On May 13, and June 4, 1996 TOC purchased the shares. Prior
        to these transactions, GPG owned approximately 40% of PICO common stock.
        Following these transactions, GPG and TOC own approximately 23% and 16%
        of PICO, respectively. The shares of PICO owned by TOC have been
        accounted for as treasury shares in the PICO consolidated financial
        statements.

3.      Pending Business Transaction

        On March 4, 1996 the Company and The Citation Insurance Group ("CIG")
        announced that they had signed a letter of intent for a stock-for-stock
        merger, pursuant to which the Company will become a wholly owned
        subsidiary of CIG. As a result of the combination, the shareholders of
        the Company will own 80 percent of the combined company. The definitive
        agreement to merge the two companies was signed on May 3, 1996. On
        November 7, 1996, the shareholders of the Company and CIG voted for the
        approval of the merger. The closing date of the transaction was November
        20, 1996. Upon consummation of the merger, CIG's name was changed to
        "PICO Holdings, Inc."
