As used herein, the "Company" means Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Insurance Management Solutions, Inc. and Geotrac of America, Inc. (formerly Bankers Hazard Determination Services, Inc.) ("Geotrac"), unless the context otherwise requires. Unless otherwise indicated, the information in this Prospectus (i) reflects the consummation of the Company's acquisition (the "Geotrac Acquisition") of Geotrac, Inc. ("Old Geotrac"), including the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto (assuming an initial public offering price of $ per share), and (ii) assumes that the Underwriters' over-allotment option will not be exercised. See "Geotrac Acquisition" and "Underwriting." THE COMPANY The Company provides (1) comprehensive policy and claims outsourcing services to the property and casualty ("P&C") insurance industry, with an emphasis on providing these services to the flood insurance market, and (2) flood zone determinations to financial institutions, mortgage lenders and insurance companies. The Company's outsourcing services, which are offered on either a bundled or "a la carte" basis, include policy administration, claims administration and information technology services. The Company processed approximately 575,000 insurance policies in 1997, including approximately 450,000 flood insurance policies, making it one of the largest providers of flood insurance outsourcing services in the United States. The Company provides outsourcing services to its affiliate, Bankers Insurance Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "BIG"), Mobile USA Insurance Company, Inc. and AAA Auto Club South Insurance Company, as well as to insurance companies that offer flood insurance utilizing BIG as their private label servicing carrier, such as Armed Forces Insurance Corporation and AMICA Mutual Insurance Company. In conjunction with BIG, the Company is able to offer insurance companies the ability to create a turnkey private label flood insurance product. The Company believes this product is attractive to insurance companies that desire to offer flood insurance but are not certified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") to sell and service flood insurance. FEMA estimates that only 25% to 33% of U.S. properties required to be covered by flood insurance are in fact covered. Accordingly, the Company anticipates continued growth in the demand for flood insurance and related flood outsourcing and flood zone determination services over the next several years. In 1997, the Company processed approximately 1.4 million flood zone determinations for over 730 customers, including financial institutions such as SouthTrust Bank, mortgage lenders such as ABN Amro North America, Inc. and Mortgage Corporation of America, and P&C insurance companies such as Allendale Mutual Insurance Company and Wausau Underwriters Insurance Company. Flood insurance is required by federal law in connection with virtually all residential mortgage loans, including refinancing loans, covering properties located within federally designated high-risk flood zones. A flood zone determination is necessary in order to ascertain a property's flood zone classification. In addition, due to more stringent underwriting criteria, P&C insurers increasingly require flood zone determinations prior to issuing commercial property policies. The Company uses its proprietary database, compiled and digitized from flood maps maintained and distributed by FEMA, to determine whether a particular property or structure is located within a flood zone classification that requires flood insurance. The Company estimates that its electronic database includes over 85% of all U.S. households. The Company is a 77.6% owned subsidiary of BIG, a holding company chartered in Florida in 1976. BIG provides multiple lines of P&C insurance, most notably flood, homeowners and automobile insurance, to individuals and businesses throughout the United States. From 1993 to 1997, BIG's total written premiums grew from $113.7 million to $259.0 million, representing annual growth rates of 14.8%, 22.5%, 46.8% and 10.4%, respectively, and a compound annual growth rate of 22.8%. BIG is the largest underwriter of flood insurance policies through independent agents (and the second largest overall) in the United States. Upon completion of this offering, BIG will beneficially own % of the Company's Common Stock. BIG is the Company's principal customer, accounting for approximately 56% of the Company's total revenues (on a pro 1 7 forma basis) and 98% of the Company's outsourcing revenues (on a pro forma basis) in 1997. See "Risk Factors -- Reliance on Key Customer." The Company's principal growth strategies include (1) expanding the Company's flood outsourcing business by (i) marketing flood outsourcing services to existing carriers certified by FEMA, (ii) offering its outsourcing services to potential new entrants into the flood insurance market, and (iii) marketing its ability, in conjunction with BIG, to provide and service a private label insurance product to insurance companies that desire to offer flood insurance but are not certified by FEMA to sell and service flood insurance, (2) expanding the Company's existing relationships with flood insurance outsourcing and flood zone determination customers to generate additional outsourcing business, (3) focusing on maximizing the Company's existing economies of scale to provide customers with more cost-effective services, and continuing to expand such efficiencies through greater utilization of the Company's existing infrastructure and databases, (4) expanding the Company's direct sales force and developing strategic relationships with other service providers, (5) generating recurring revenues by providing services based on long-term contractual relationships or based upon events which occur frequently in the course of a customer's business, and (6) pursuing strategic acquisitions that offer opportunities to increase market share or expand the Company's menu of outsourcing services. The principal costs associated with implementing these growth strategies include (i) compensation and overhead expenses associated with establishing a direct sales team, (ii) expenses associated with implementing a marketing program, (iii) incremental depreciation and amortization expense associated with maintaining technological competency in the Company's principal business segments and (iv) legal, accounting, due diligence and similar costs and expenses incurred in connection with prospective acquisitions. See "Business -- Growth Strategy." The Company is a holding company that was incorporated in the State of Florida in December, 1996 by BIG, which contributed to the Company two of its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries, Insurance Management Solutions, Inc. ("IMS") and Bankers Hazard Determination Services, Inc. ("BHDS"), that were previously formed in August, 1991 and June, 1988, respectively. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 360 Central Avenue, St. Petersburg, Florida 33701, and its telephone number is (813) 803-2040.

See "Use of Proceeds" and "Capitalization." 4 10 RISK FACTORS An investment in the shares of Common Stock offered hereby involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should consider carefully the following risk factors, as well as the other information set forth in this Prospectus, in evaluating an investment in the Common Stock offered hereby. This Prospectus contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Prospectus, including without limitation statements set forth under "Prospectus Summary," "Risk Factors," "Use of Proceeds," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Geotrac" and "Business," regarding the Company's financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management of the Company for future operations, are forward-looking statements. When used in this Prospectus, words such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend" and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company or its management, identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company's management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to the Company's management. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, such as those disclosed under "Risk Factors," including but not limited to the Company's reliance on a key customer, dependence on economic and other factors, fluctuations in operating results, changes in legal and regulatory requirements, integration of the Geotrac Acquisition, conflicts of interest, and matters set forth elsewhere in this Prospectus. Such statements reflect the current views of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to those and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to the operations, results of operations, growth strategy and liquidity of the Company. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this paragraph. RELIANCE ON KEY CUSTOMER The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues from outsourcing services provided to its principal shareholder, BIG. For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1997 (pro forma), revenues from services provided to BIG accounted for approximately 40%, 37%, 76% and 56%, respectively, of the Company's total revenues and approximately 100%, 93%, 98% and 98%, respectively, of the Company's revenues from outsourcing services. The Company has entered into contracts with BIG pursuant to which it will continue to provide administrative services to BIG. See "Certain Transactions -- Service Agreements." The Company's future financial condition and results of operations will depend to a significant extent upon the commercial success of BIG and its continued willingness to utilize the Company's services. Any significant downturn in the business of BIG or its commitment to utilize the Company's services could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Business -- Customers." DEPENDENCE ON ECONOMIC AND OTHER FACTORS; FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS The Company's business is dependent upon various factors, such as general economic conditions and weather patterns, that are beyond its control. For example, the demand for flood zone determinations by lenders and their customers is directly related to the affordability of mortgage financing and refinancing. Current interest rates are relatively low and therefore conducive to a higher volume of mortgage lending and flood zone determinations. An increase in interest rates could have a negative impact on mortgage lending and consequently also on the level of flood zone determinations requested. Fluctuations in interest rates will likely produce fluctuations in the Company's quarterly earnings and operating results. Likewise, natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods, all of which are unpredictable, directly impact the demand for both the Company's outsourcing and flood zone determination services. 5 11 REGULATORY INVESTIGATIONS Bankers Insurance Company ("BIC"), a subsidiary of BIG, is currently subject to an investigation by the Florida Department of Insurance (the "DOI"), the principal regulator of insurance activities in the State of Florida, stemming from BIC's use of a private investigator to gather information on a DOI employee and the private investigator's unauthorized use of illegal wiretaps in connection therewith. In addition, BIC and certain of its employees (one of whom is now an officer of IMS and several of whom are now employees of the Company) have been subpoenaed on behalf of FEMA to produce documentation or testify in connection with its investigation of, among other things, certain cash management practices of BIC. In the event either or both of these investigations or any consequence thereof materially adversely affects the business or operations of BIC, it could result in the loss or material decrease in the Company's business from BIC, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Business -- Legal Proceedings." GOVERNMENT REGULATION As a provider of policy and claims processing to the flood insurance industry, the Company is subject to extensive and continuously changing guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration. No assurance can be given with respect to the extent to which the Company may become subject to regulation in the future, the ability of the Company to comply with any such regulation, the cost of compliance or an abrupt change in the overall concept or delivery of the flood insurance product on behalf of the federal government. Moreover, if the federal government were to curtail the current federal flood program, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Business -- Market Opportunities." The P&C insurance industry is subject to extensive regulation by state governments. Because the Company markets and sells its services to P&C insurers, certain aspects of the Company's business are affected by such regulation. The Company must continuously update its software to reflect changes in regulations. In addition, changes in regulations that adversely affect the Company's existing and potential customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Although the Company's services are not directly subject to insurance regulations in the states where the Company currently provides such services, the Company's outsourcing services may be subject to insurance regulations in states where the Company may do business in the future. Such regulations could require the Company to obtain a license as a managing general agent or third-party administrator. Failure to perform in accordance with state regulations could result in the loss of significant insurance clients. No assurance can be given with respect to the extent to which the Company may become subject to regulation in the future, the ability of the Company to comply with any such regulation, or the cost of compliance. INTEGRATION OF RECENT ACQUISITION On July 31, 1997 the Company acquired a 49% equity interest in Old Geotrac. In July, 1998, the Company acquired the remaining 51% equity interest in Old Geotrac. The Company is in the process of consolidating its existing flood zone determination operations with those of Old Geotrac in an effort to realize economies of scale. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to integrate the operations of Old Geotrac with its own operations, or that such economies of scale will be realized. The failure to successfully integrate its own operations with those of Old Geotrac could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Geotrac Acquisition." CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER; CONFLICTS OF INTEREST Prior to this offering, BIG owned approximately 77.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. After this offering, BIG will own % of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. As a result, BIG will continue to be able to elect the Company's directors and determine the outcome of other matters requiring shareholder approval. BIG's ultimate parent, Bankers International Financial Corporation, Ltd., is wholly owned by a discretionary charitable trust. David K. Meehan, the Company's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Robert M. Menke and Robert G. Menke, directors of the Company, presently serve on 6 12 the board of directors of a corporation that possesses discretionary power with respect to this trust to (i) direct the trustee to appoint the trust fund to another trust for the benefit of one or more of the beneficiaries of the trust and (ii) remove the trustee and appoint one or more new trustees. This corporation possesses the same discretionary powers with respect to a discretionary charitable trust that wholly owns the Selling Shareholder. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders." The ownership by BIG of shares of Common Stock after this offering may discourage or prevent unsolicited mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, proxy contests or changes of incumbent management, even when shareholders other than BIG consider such a transaction or event to be in their best interests. Accordingly, holders of Common Stock may be deprived of an opportunity to sell their shares at a premium over the trading price of the shares. Certain officers and directors of the Company, including David K. Meehan, the Company's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, also serve as officers and directors of BIG. Effective as of the completion of this offering, certain of these officers and directors will resign from their positions with BIG. However, Mr. Meehan will continue to serve as Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of BIG, Robert M. Menke will continue to serve as President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of BIG, and Robert G. Menke will continue to serve as Executive Vice President of BIG. In addition, as described below, the Company will continue to have a variety of contractual relationships with BIG. As the interests of the Company and BIG may differ, Messrs. Meehan, Robert M. Menke and Robert G. Menke may face certain conflicts of interests. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders" and "Certain Transactions." The Company's relationship with BIG is governed by various agreements, including (i) an administration services agreement pursuant to which BIG provides benefits administration, cash management, and certain limited accounting and legal services to the Company, (ii) service agreements pursuant to which the Company provides policy and claims administration services for BIG, (iii) lease agreements pursuant to which BIG leases certain facilities to the Company, and (iv) an employee leasing agreement pursuant to which BIG leases certain of its employees to the Company. The agreements generally are intended to maintain the relationship between the Company and BIG in a manner consistent in material respects with past practice, except that certain changes in the fee structure for the Company's services have been implemented and the Company does not anticipate receiving any loans or capital contributions from BIG following this offering. None of these agreements resulted from arm's-length negotiations and, as a result, the terms of such agreements may be more or less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from an independent third party. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company" and "Certain Transactions." RIGHTS OF FORMER GEOTRAC SHAREHOLDER The Company has entered into a Corporate Governance Agreement with Geotrac and Daniel J. White setting forth certain terms and conditions pertaining to the operation of Geotrac following the Geotrac Acquisition. The Corporate Governance Agreement provides, in part, that for so long as Mr. White is a shareholder of the Company or Geotrac or has an option to purchase Geotrac stock, (i) the Company will vote all of its shares of Geotrac stock to fix and maintain the number of Geotrac directors at five, (ii) the Company will vote its shares of Geotrac stock to elect as directors of Geotrac two persons designated by Mr. White, (iii) Mr. White's termination as a Geotrac employee will require the vote of four out of five members of the Board of Directors, and (iv) certain actions by Geotrac will require the unanimous approval of the Geotrac Board of Directors, including any merger or consolidation, the payment of management or similar fees to the Company, or its subsidiaries or affiliates, the sale or issuance of Geotrac stock, and the sale of Geotrac assets outside the ordinary course of business to anyone other than an affiliate of Geotrac. Mr. White also has a right of first refusal to purchase the assets of Geotrac in the event such assets are to be sold. The Corporate Governance Agreement therefore allows Mr. White to block certain transactions involving Geotrac even if such transactions are approved by all of the other directors of Geotrac and may be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. Mr. White is a director and shareholder of the Company. See "Management," "Principal and Selling Shareholders" and "Certain Transactions -- Geotrac Transactions." 7 13 DEPENDENCE ON SENIOR MANAGEMENT The success of the Company is largely dependent upon the efforts, direction and guidance of its senior management, and in particular David K. Meehan, the Company's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey S. Bragg, the Company's Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, and Daniel J. White, Geotrac's President and Chief Executive Officer. Although each of the Company's executive officers, including Messrs. Meehan, Bragg and White, is a party to an employment agreement with the Company, no assurances can be given that any of them will remain in the employment of the Company. The Company's continued growth and success depends in part on its ability to attract and retain qualified managers, and on the ability of its executive officers and key employees to manage its operations successfully. The loss of any of the Company's senior management or key personnel, or its inability to attract and retain key management personnel in the future, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Management." LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY IN THIRD-PARTY OUTSOURCING Since its inception, the Company has provided outsourcing services to BIG, the largest underwriter of flood insurance policies through independent agents (and the second largest overall) in the United States. As BIG's outsourcing provider, the Company has become one of the leading flood insurance outsourcing providers nationally; however, to date it has not derived significant revenue from unaffiliated third-party outsourcing customers. A key element of the Company's growth strategy is to leverage its experience and expertise in servicing BIG's flood, homeowners and automobile business to market its outsourcing capabilities in various P&C lines, including flood, homeowners and automobile insurance, to other insurance companies and financial institutions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in implementing this growth strategy, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. See "Business -- Growth Strategy." EXISTENCE OF WELL-POSITIONED COMPETITORS The Company competes principally in three markets -- the market for flood insurance outsourcing services, the market for other P&C insurance outsourcing services and the market for flood zone determinations and related services. The markets for these services are highly competitive. The market for flood insurance outsourcing services is dominated by several principal competitors. As the outsourcing provider to BIG, the largest underwriter of flood insurance policies through independent agents (and the second largest overall) in the United States, the Company has become a leading competitor in this market. The Company competes for flood insurance outsourcing customers largely on the basis of price, customer service and responsiveness. The market for other P&C insurance outsourcing services is fragmented. In the policy administration services segment of this market, the Company competes for customers on the basis of customer service, performance and price. The claims administration services segment of the outsourcing market is also highly fragmented, with competition from a large number of claims administration companies of varying size as well as independent contractors. Competition in this segment of the outsourcing market is principally price driven. The Company believes, however, that its most significant competition for outsourcing services comes from policy and claims administration performed in-house by insurance companies. Insurers that fulfill some or all of their policy and claims administration needs in-house typically have made a significant investment in their information processing systems and may be less likely to utilize the Company's services. In addition, insurance company personnel may have a vested interest in maintaining these responsibilities in-house. The market for flood zone determination services is dominated by the Company and several principal competitors. The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the market for flood zone determinations include quality and reliability of services, response time and price. Certain of the Company's competitors in each of these markets have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than the Company, including name recognition with current and potential customers. As a result, these competitors may devote more resources to the development, promotion and sale of their services or products than the Company and respond more quickly to emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. In addition, current and potential 8 14 competitors may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the ability of their services and products to address customer needs. Accordingly, new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, or that competitive pressure faced by the Company will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Business -- Competition." IMPLEMENTATION OF ACQUISITION STRATEGY A key element of the Company's growth strategy is to pursue potential acquisitions that offer opportunities to increase market share or expand the Company's menu of outsourcing services. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to locate and consummate or, if consummated, successfully integrate future acquisitions. Acquisitions involve significant risks which could have a material adverse effect on the Company, including: (i) the diversion of management's time and attention to the negotiation of the acquisition and to the assimilation of the businesses acquired; (ii) the need to modify financial and other systems and add management resources; (iii) potential liabilities of the acquired business; (iv) unforeseen difficulties in the acquired operations; (v) possible adverse short-term effects on the Company's results of operations; (vi) the dilutive effect of the issuance of additional equity securities; and (vii) the financial reporting effects of the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any business interest acquired in the future will achieve acceptable levels of revenue and profitability or otherwise perform as expected. Currently, the Company has no arrangements or understandings with any party with respect to any future acquisition. The Company, however, continues to monitor potential acquisition opportunities. See "Business -- Growth Strategy." POTENTIAL LIABILITY TO CLIENTS Many of the Company's contractual engagements involve projects that are critical to the operations of its clients' business and provide benefits that may be difficult to quantify. Any failure in a client's system could result in a claim for substantial damages against the Company, regardless of the Company's responsibility for such failure. Although the Company attempts to limit contractually its liability for damages arising from negligent acts, errors, mistakes or omissions in rendering its services, there can be no assurance that the limitations of liability set forth in its service contracts will be enforceable in all instances or would otherwise protect the Company from liability for damages. Although the Company maintains general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for errors or omissions, there can be no assurance that such coverage will continue to be available on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or that the insurer will not disclaim coverage as to any future claim. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against the Company that exceed available insurance coverage, or changes in the Company's insurance policies, including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. DEPENDENCE ON TREND TOWARD OUTSOURCING The Company's business and growth depends in large part on the insurance industry's trend toward outsourcing administration and information technology services. There can be no assurance that this trend will continue, as organizations may elect to perform such services in-house. A significant change in the direction of this trend could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Business -- Market Opportunities." RELIANCE ON TECHNOLOGY AND COMPUTER SYSTEMS The Company currently licenses its primary processing software systems from BIG. Under the terms of its licensing agreement, the Company is responsible for maintaining and upgrading such systems. The Company anticipates that it will be necessary to continue to invest in and develop new technology to maintain its competitiveness. Significant capital expenditures may be required to keep its technology up-to-date. The Company's future success will also depend in part on its ability to anticipate and develop information 9 15 technology solutions which keep pace with evolving industry standards and changing customer demands. The temporary or permanent loss of any such equipment or systems, through operating malfunction or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company," "Business -- Information Systems" and "Certain Transactions." In addition, the nature of the Company's business requires that it recruit and retain qualified technical personnel. The Company generally experiences significant turnover of its information technology personnel and is continuously required to recruit and train replacement personnel. The demand for qualified personnel conversant with certain technologies is intense and may exceed supply as new and additional skills are required to keep pace with evolving computer technology. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting and retaining the information technology personnel it requires to conduct its operations successfully. Failure to attract and retain such personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. YEAR 2000 ISSUES There is significant uncertainty regarding the impact of Year 2000 issues, which arise when computer systems do not properly recognize date-sensitive information beyond December 31, 1999, thereby generating erroneous data or failing altogether. The Company believes that its primary processing systems will function properly with respect to dates in the Year 2000 and thereafter. However, third parties that have relationships with the Company, including suppliers, customers and creditors, may experience significant Year 2000 issues. These issues may have a serious adverse impact on the operations of such third parties, including a shut-down of operations for a period of time, which may, in turn, have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, competitors, and other third parties may experience significant Year 2000 issues and, as a result, seek to hire the Company's programmers and other software-related personnel at higher salaries to address these issues. The loss of certain employees or a significant number of employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company -- Year 2000 Compliance." SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Upon the completion of this offering, the Company will have shares of Common Stock outstanding. Of these shares, the shares of Common Stock sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or registration under the Securities Act by persons other than "affiliates" of the Company, as defined under the Securities Act. The remaining shares of Common Stock will be "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and may not be sold in the absence of registration under the Securities Act unless an exemption from registration is available, including the exemptions contained in Rule 144. Upon completion of the offering, the Company will have options outstanding to purchase shares of Common Stock. In addition, and additional shares will remain available for issuance under the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan and Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan, respectively. See "Management -- Long Term Incentive Plan," "-- Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan" and "-- Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan" and "Shares Eligible for Future Sale." The restricted shares owned by BIG will, under Rule 144 (and subject to the conditions thereof, including volume limitations), become eligible for sale 90 days after the offering. However, BIG has agreed not to sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any of these shares of Common Stock for a period of 180 days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., on behalf of the Underwriters. After such 180-day period, this restriction will expire and shares permitted to be sold under Rule 144 will be eligible for sale. Raymond James & Associates, Inc., on behalf of the Underwriters, may at any time and without prior notice, release all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock subject to such agreement. See "Underwriting." 10 16 Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock and no predictions can be made of the effect, if any, that the sale or availability for sale of additional shares of Common Stock will have on the market price of the Common Stock. Nevertheless, sales of substantial amounts of such shares in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could materially and adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock and could impair the Company's future ability to raise capital through an offering of its equity securities. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale." NO PRIOR PUBLIC MARKET; VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock, and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or continue following this offering, or that the market price of the Common Stock will not decline below the initial public offering price. The initial public offering price for the Common Stock will be determined by negotiations among the Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters based on several factors, and may not be indicative of the market price for the Common Stock after this offering. See "Underwriting." The Company believes that various factors such as general economic conditions and changes or volatility in the financial markets, changing market conditions, and quarterly or annual variations in the Company's financial results, some of which are unrelated to the Company's performance, could cause the market price of the Common Stock to fluctuate substantially. DILUTION Purchasers of the Common Stock offered hereby will experience immediate and substantial dilution of $ in the net tangible book value per share of Common Stock, while the net tangible book value of the shares of Common Stock owned by BIG and the Selling Shareholder will increase by $ per share. See "Dilution." BENEFITS OF THE OFFERING TO THE CURRENT SHAREHOLDERS BIG and the Selling Shareholder will benefit from this offering in that a public market will be created for their stock in the Company. The shares of Common Stock that will be owned by BIG after this offering, which were acquired at a cost of approximately $ , will have a value of approximately $ , assuming a market price equal to the initial public offering price. The shares of Common Stock that will be owned by the Selling Shareholder after this offering, which were acquired at a cost of approximately $ , will have a value of approximately $ , assuming a market price equal to the initial price to public. The Selling Shareholder will also realize a substantial profit on the shares it sells in this offering. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders." GEOTRAC ACQUISITION In July, 1997, the Company acquired a 49% equity interest in Geotrac, Inc., an unaffiliated Ohio corporation ("Old Geotrac"), from Daniel J. White and his spouse (the "Whites"), as joint tenants, for $6.75 million in cash. In July, 1998, the Company acquired the remaining 51% equity interest in Old Geotrac from the Whites in exchange for (i) shares of Common Stock (assuming an initial public offering price of $ per share), (ii) a promissory note in the principal amount of $1.5 million, and (iii) cash in the amount of $728,069. The Company also granted the Whites certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued to them pursuant to this transaction. The transaction was effected pursuant to the merger of Old Geotrac into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with the surviving entity being known as "Geotrac of America, Inc.". Old Geotrac, a leading provider of flood zone determinations, began operations in 1978. Old Geotrac's revenues and net income were $14.1 million and $1.9 million (on a pro forma basis), respectively, in 1997 and $8.8 million and $927,000 respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Old Geotrac's President, 11 17 Chief Executive Officer and joint majority shareholder, Daniel J. White, now serves as President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of Geotrac and as a director of the Company. The acquisition of Old Geotrac (the "Geotrac Acquisition") strengthens the Company's position as a leader in the flood zone determination business and broadens the range of flood data services the Company is able to provide. In addition, the Company is in the process of consolidating its own flood zone determination operations with those of Old Geotrac in an effort to realize economies of scale. Finally, the Company believes that access to Old Geotrac's customer base of financial institutions and insurance companies will facilitate cross-selling opportunities and expansion of the Company's outsourcing services. USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the shares of Common Stock offered by the Company (assuming an initial public offering price of $ per share), after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are estimated to be approximately $ million. The Company intends to use approximately $ million of the net proceeds to repay indebtedness that is outstanding at the time of this offering. The Company intends to use the remaining net proceeds of approximately $ million for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures on upgraded technology and possible acquisitions. The Company has no present commitments or understandings with respect to the acquisition of any business, although the Company continues to monitor potential acquisition opportunities. Pending such uses, the Company intends to invest the net proceeds of this offering in short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing securities. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company -- Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Business -- Growth Strategy". The indebtedness to be repaid with proceeds from this offering includes a term loan of Geotrac, which had an outstanding principal balance of $7,500,000 at June 30, 1998, currently bears interest at the prime rate and matures June 2004, and various debt instruments of the Company including (i) a note payable to affiliate entered into on March 31, 1998 (previously reflected as a non-interest bearing affiliate balance), which had an outstanding balance of $4,950,000 at June 30, 1998, bears interest at 8.5% and matures April, 1999, (ii) notes payable to affiliates entered into on April 1, 1998 (used to fund capital additions), which had an outstanding balance of $2,755,924 at June 30, 1998, bears interest at 8.5% and matures at various dates through January 2000, (iii) a note payable to bank entered into December, 1997 (used to fund capital additions), which had an outstanding balance of $1,811,623 at June 30, 1998, bears interest at 8.19% and matures December, 2000, (iv) various other term loans which totaled $893,139 at June 30, 1998, bearing interest at rates ranging from 8.19% to 8.50%, maturing at various dates from December, 1999 to December, 2000 and (v) a note payable entered into May, 1998 (used to repurchase preferred stock of a subsidiary), which has an outstanding balance of $6,750,000, bears interest at 8.5% and matures December, 1998. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Shareholder. The net proceeds to be received by the Selling Shareholder from the sale of the shares offered by the Selling Shareholder (assuming an initial public offering price of $ per share) will be approximately $ after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions payable by the Selling Shareholder. A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Selling Shareholder has agreed to loan $ million to BIG in exchange for a subordinated note. It is anticipated that this loan will be funded using a portion of the net proceeds to be received by the Selling Shareholder in this offering. BIG has agreed with the Company to use a portion of such loan proceeds to satisfy outstanding accounts and note payable to the Company not later than ten business days following receipt of the loan proceeds. As of June 30, 1998, BIG's accounts and note payable to the Company totaled approximately $13.2 million. The balance of the loan proceeds will provide BIG with additional capital to repay other outstanding indebtedness and expand its operations. The Company, in turn, has agreed with BIG to use a portion of the funds received from BIG to satisfy accounts, income taxes and notes payable to BIG. As of June 30, 1998, the Company's accounts, income taxes and notes payable to BIG totaled approximately $20.5 million. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders" and "Certain Transactions." 12 18 DIVIDEND POLICY In December, 1996, December, 1997, and June, 1998, the Company paid dividends of $1.0 million, $3.5 million, and $1.1 million, respectively, to BIG. The Company currently anticipates that all of its earnings will be retained for development and expansion of the Company's business and does not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. 13 19 CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the capitalization of the Company as of June 30, 1998: (1) on an actual basis; (2) on a pro forma basis to reflect the Geotrac Acquisition, which was completed in July, 1998, using the purchase method of accounting as if the Geotrac Acquisition had occurred on June 30, 1998; and (3) on a pro forma basis, as adjusted to reflect (i) the application of the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of shares of Common Stock offered hereby (assuming an initial public offering price of $ per share), after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, and (ii) settlement or satisfaction of intercompany accounts from funds made available to BIG by a loan from a subsidiary of the Selling Shareholder, using a portion of the net proceeds of the offering received by the Selling Shareholder.

(2) Excludes (a) shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan, pursuant to which options to purchase shares will be granted immediately upon the completion of this offering, (b) shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Company's Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan, and (c) shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Company's Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, pursuant to which options to purchase shares will be granted immediately upon the completion of this offering. See "Management -- Long Term Incentive Plan," "-- Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan" and "-- Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan." 14 20 DILUTION Purchasers of the Common Stock offered hereby will experience an immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value (deficiency) of their Common Stock from the initial public offering price. The net tangible book value (deficiency) of the Company as of June 30, 1998 (on pro forma basis) was approximately $(9.7 million), or $( ) per share. Net tangible book value (deficiency) per share represents the amount of the Company's tangible net worth (total tangible assets less total liabilities) divided by the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. After giving effect to the sale of shares of Common Stock by the Company in this offering and the application of the estimated net proceeds therefrom (after deduction of underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company), the pro forma net tangible book value of the Company as of June 30, 1998 would have been $ million, or $ per share of Common Stock. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $ per share to the existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $ per share to purchasers of shares of Common Stock in this offering. The following table illustrates the per share dilution: Assumed initial public offering price per share............. $ -------- Net tangible book value (deficiency) per share before this offering............................................... $ -------- Increase per share attributable to new investors.......... -------- Pro forma net tangible book value after this offering(1).... -------- Dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors................................................. $ ======== - --------------- (1) If the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full, the net tangible book value after this offering would be $ per share, resulting in dilution to new investors in this offering of $ per share. The following table sets forth on a pro forma basis as of June 30, 1998 the number of shares of Common Stock purchased from the Company, the total consideration paid and the average price per share of Common Stock paid by the Company's existing shareholders and to be paid by new investors in this offering and before deduction of estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses (and assuming no exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option): SHARES PURCHASED(1) TOTAL CONSIDERATION AVERAGE ----------------- -------------------- PER NUMBER PERCENT AMOUNT PERCENT PRICE SHARE ------- ------- ---------- ------- ----------- Existing shareholders................... % $ % $ New investors........................... ------- --- ---------- --- -------- Total......................... 100% $ 100% $ ======= === ========== === ======== - --------------- (1) Does not reflect the sale of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Shareholder in this offering and does not include an aggregate of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options to be granted upon the completion of this offering. See "Management -- Long Term Incentive Plan," "-- Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan" and "-- Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan." Sales by the Selling Shareholder in this offering will reduce the number of shares held by existing shareholders to shares, or approximately %, and will increase the number of shares held by new investors to , or approximately %, of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after this offering. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders." 15 21 SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA OF THE COMPANY (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) The following selected consolidated financial data should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and Notes thereto, Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) of the Company, and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company" included elsewhere in the Prospectus.

(3) Dividends declared on Preferred Stock for 1997 and the six months ended June 30, 1998 were $229,315 and $189,370, respectively, and were included in interest expense. See Note 8 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. (4) In December, 1996, December, 1997, and June, 1998, the Company paid dividends of $1.0 million, $3.5 million, and $1.1 million, respectively, to BIG. The Company currently anticipates that all of its earnings will be retained for development and expansion of the Company's business and does not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. See "Dividend Policy." 17 23 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Prospectus. OVERVIEW Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company") is a holding company that was incorporated in the State of Florida in December, 1996 by Bankers Insurance Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "BIG"), which contributed to the Company two of its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries, Insurance Management Solutions, Inc. ("IMS") and Bankers Hazard Determination Services, Inc. ("BHDS"), that were previously formed in August, 1991 and June, 1988, respectively. BIG is a diversified group of P&C insurance companies with premium writings in all fifty states. BIG's principal lines of business include flood, homeowners and automobile insurance lines. From 1993 to 1997, BIG experienced substantial growth in total written premiums from $113.7 million to $259.0 million. Prior to 1997, the Company's outsourcing services principally related to information technology services provided to BIG on a cost reimbursement basis. In 1997, the Company entered into service arrangements with BIG to provide a broader menu of outsourcing services. These services primarily consisted of policy and claims administration (including policy issuance, billing and collection functions, claims adjusting and processing) and information technology services provided for BIG's flood and homeowners insurance lines of business. Revenues for these services were derived based on a percentage of direct written premiums for policy administration services and direct paid claims for claims administration services. The Company also provided claims administration services for BIG's other insurance lines, excluding flood and homeowners, on a cost reimbursement basis in 1997. Effective January 1, 1998, the Company entered into written service agreements with BIG which modified the existing arrangements to (i) expand the services provided by the Company to include policy administration for certain automobile lines of business, (ii) recognize claims outsourcing revenue based not on a cost reimbursement basis, but rather on a percentage of earned premiums and, with respect to certain types of claims, a percentage of incurred losses, and (iii) implement a change in fee structure from a percentage of incurred loss to a percentage of earned premiums with respect to homeowners claims services. These changes were negotiated in order to effect more uniform revenue recognition. To obtain BIG's agreement to such changes, the Company, in turn, agreed to the revised fee structure with respect to homeowners claims services. BIG presently accounts for approximately 98% of the Company's outsourcing services revenues and is expected to continue to account for a significant majority of the Company's outsourcing revenues in the near future. See "Risk Factors -- Reliance on Key Customer" and "Certain Transactions -- Service Agreements." In July, 1997, the Company acquired a 49% interest in Old Geotrac, a leading provider of flood zone determinations. Until July, 1998, when the remaining 51% interest was acquired, this investment was accounted for on the equity method. Outsourcing service revenues are principally derived from written and earned insurance premiums. Such premiums are affected by seasonal fluctuations in volume of new and renewal policies received. Outsourcing service revenues generated from the flood and homeowners lines of business increase in the late second quarter and peak during the third quarter in conjunction with home sales. In the Company's experience, increased levels of flood insurance purchases occur in the Southeastern United States during the second and third quarters in anticipation of the onset of the hurricane season. Federal residential flood insurance rates are set by FEMA and are the same for all flood insurance carriers. Consequently, policyholder retention is typically dependent upon the quality of customer service being offered. Higher retention or renewal rates provide more consistent recurring revenues. Flood insurance carriers often utilize independent agents to sell their product. Competing flood insurance carriers offering more attractive commissions to such agents pose a significant risk for declines in business. During periods of peak demand for flood and homeowners insurance, the number of policies waiting to be issued increases. This backlog represents future service fee income to be earned, generally within one month. 18 24 Flood zone determination revenues, which are recognized as services are performed, are cyclically impacted by both changes in mortgage interest rates and trends in home sales. The cost of outsourcing services primarily includes wages and related benefits associated with personnel who perform policy and claims administration services, as well as postage and telephone charges, data processing and other direct costs associated with providing service to customers. Cost of flood zone determination services primarily includes wages and related benefits associated with personnel who perform flood zone determination services, telephone expenses, general liability insurance, data processing and other direct costs associated with providing service to customers. Due to the ongoing automation of the Company's flood zone database, a gradual increase in the number of automated flood zone determinations, versus manually determined flood zones, has occurred. Automated flood zone determinations cost less for the Company to perform than manually generated determinations. Selling, general and administrative expenses include the wages and related benefits of sales and marketing, executive, finance and accounting personnel, as well as other general operating costs. In addition, wages and related benefits of the management staff of each processing department (i.e. Customer Service, Claims, and Information Services) are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Management services from Parent have historically been charged to the Company under a management agreement with BIG for common costs that are incurred by BIG and allocated to its affiliated companies. These common costs include human resources, legal, corporate planning and communications, cash management, certain executive management and rent. Allocation of the management services is based on employee head counts and estimates of time incurred, which management believes to be a reasonable basis of allocation. The Company presently purchases certain services, including human resources, internal audit and legal services, from BIG. See "Certain Transactions." If the Company develops the capability to provide these services internally, certain sales and administrative support costs may fluctuate. QUARTERLY RESULTS The following table presents unaudited quarterly operating results for the Company for the quarters included in years 1996 and 1997 and the first two quarters of 1998. This information has been prepared on the same basis as the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Prospectus, and includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. These operating results are not necessarily indicative of the Company's future performance.

Outsourcing services revenue increased $3.5 million, or 24.4%, to $17.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $14.3 million for the corresponding period in 1997. The increase was primarily attributable to (i) the expansion of the services provided to BIG to include policy administration for certain of BIG's automobile lines of insurance, (ii) the change in fee structure for claims administration (excluding BIG's flood and homeowners lines) from a cost reimbursement basis to a percentage of earned premium and, in certain instances, incurred losses, and (iii) increased services provided to BIG due to the growth in the volume of BIG's flood insurance business. The increase was partially offset by the revised fee structure pertaining to policy administration and claims administration for BIG's homeowners insurance line. Flood Zone Determination Services Revenues. Flood zone determination services revenues increased $302,000, or 7.0%, to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $4.3 million for the corresponding period in 1997. The revenue growth was primarily attributable to the increased number of flood zone determinations processed due to the large number of mortgage financings and refinancings occurring largely as a result of continued low interest rates. Cost of Outsourcing Services. Cost of outsourcing services increased $2.0 million, or 18.4%, to $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $10.8 million for the corresponding period in 1997. The increase in cost of outsourcing services was primarily attributable to (i) increases in staffing due to the expansion of the services provided to BIG to include policy administration for certain of BIG's automobile lines of insurance, (ii) increased services provided to BIG due to the growth in the volume of BIG's insurance business and (iii) the Company assuming responsibility for claims costs for independent adjusters and appraisers that were previously borne by BIG. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the lease cost of fixed assets that were purchased by the Company from BIG on April 1, 1998. Prior to April 1, 1998, the depreciation for such equipment, which totaled $282,515 and $573,189 during the six months ended 20 26 June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, was charged to the Company under an arrangement similar to an operating lease and is included in cost of outsourcing services. Such costs are now included in depreciation and amortization. Cost of Flood Zone Determination Services. Cost of flood zone determination services increased $65,000, or 3.1%, to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $2.1 million for the corresponding period in 1997. As a percentage of flood zone determination services revenue, cost of flood zone determination services decreased from 48.3% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to 46.6% for the corresponding period in 1998. The decrease in cost of flood zone determination services as a percentage of flood zone determination services revenue primarily resulted from a reduction of approximately $303,000 in insurance costs associated with the Company's life of loan program due to favorable loss experience under the life of loan program, partially offset by cross-licensing fees for database management paid to Old Geotrac. These cross-licensing fees were terminated upon the merger of Old Geotrac into the Company in July, 1998. Effective June 1, 1998, the Company terminated its insurance policy associated with its life of loan program. Consequently, from such date forward, the Company deferred a portion of each life of loan fee received in order to account for its obligation to perform future flood zone redeterminations. Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $484,000, or 32.3%, to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $1.5 million for the corresponding period in 1997. The increase is primarily related to additional wages and related benefits associated with adding executive management, accounting, sales and marketing and other administrative staff during 1998 to support the Company's expanded operations. Management Services from Parent. Management services from Parent increased $197,000, or 16.8%, to $1.4 million for the six months ending June 30, 1998 from $1.2 million for the corresponding period in 1997. The increase is primarily related to an increase in management services provided to the Company due to the Company's expanded operations. Such increased services primarily include agency accounting, audit services and cash management services. Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $795,000, or 328.5%, to $1.0 million for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 from $242,000 for the same period in 1997 primarily as a result of depreciation recorded related to assets consisting of telephone equipment and computer hardware and software, transferred and assigned to the Company in April, 1998 for use in its business. Prior to April 1, 1998, the depreciation for such equipment, which totaled $282,515 and $573,189 during the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, was charged to the Company under an arrangement similar to an operating lease and is included in cost of outsourcing services. Also, the six month period ended June 30, 1998 reflects amortization of Goodwill related to the Geotrac Acquisition which took place in July, 1997. Equity in Earnings of Geotrac, Inc. During July, 1997, the Company purchased a 49% interest in Old Geotrac. Equity in earnings of Old Geotrac contributed $485,000 to net income of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's effective income tax rates were 35.3% and 38.1% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Income before income taxes for the first six months of 1998, excluding the equity in earnings of Old Geotrac, resulted in a effective income tax rate of 40.0%. The equity in earnings in Old Geotrac are presented net of tax. As a result of the Company's acquisition of the remaining 51% interest in Old Geotrac during July, 1998, the Company recorded additional goodwill that is non-deductible for income tax purposes. The annual amortization of the non-deductible goodwill will total approximately $325,000. On a pro forma basis, had the purchase occurred on January 1, 1998, the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 1998 would have been 41.8%. 21 27 COMPARISON OF THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996 Outsourcing Services Revenues. Outsourcing services revenues increased $24.6 million, or 479.8%, to $29.7 million in 1997 from $5.1 million in 1996. During 1997, outsourcing services revenue was generated primarily from the Company's service agreements with BIG to provide policy and claims administration related to its flood and homeowners insurance programs. In addition, during 1997, the Company provided claims administration services on a cost reimbursement basis for most of BIG's other lines of business, excluding flood and homeowners. During 1996, the Company provided only information technology services to its affiliated companies on a cost reimbursement basis. Flood Zone Determination Services Revenues. Flood zone determination services revenues increased $1.1 million, or 14.1%, to $8.8 million in 1997 from $7.7 million in 1996. The increase in revenues was due to the increase in determinations performed, offset by a decrease of approximately 6.0% in the average fee per determination as a result of competitive pressures. Cost of Outsourcing Services. Cost of outsourcing services increased $18.1 million, or 464.4%, to $22.0 million in 1997 from $3.9 million in 1996. The increase was primarily the result of the transfer of various policy and claims administration units from BIG to the Company, as well as upward pressure on salaries resulting from continued competition for qualified employees. Cost of Flood Zone Determination Services. Cost of flood zone determination services decreased $598,000, or 11.2%, to $4.8 million in 1997 from $5.4 million in 1996. As a percentage of flood zone determination services revenue, cost of flood zone determination services decreased from 69.6% in 1996 to 54.2% in 1997. The decrease was primarily the result of reduced insurance cost of approximately $800,000 related to the Company's life of loan program due to favorable loss experience under the life of loan program. The cost savings during 1997 under this program was partially offset by increases in personnel to process the increased volume of flood zone determinations. Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.9 million, or 169.9%, to $3.0 million in 1997 from $1.1 million in 1996. The increase was primarily related to additional wages and related benefits associated with adding executive management, accounting, sales and marketing and other administrative staff during 1997 to support the Company's expanded operations. Management Services from Parent. Management services from Parent increased $1.3 million, or 122.4%, to $2.3 million in 1997 from $1.1 million in 1996. The increase is primarily related to the expansion of the Company's services during 1997 to include policy and claims administration. Prior to 1997, the Company mainly provided data processing services to its affiliates. The expansion of services resulted in a significant need for additional space and human resource services, which were included in the management services allocation. Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $375,000, or 121.1%, to $684,000 in 1997 from $309,000 in 1996 primarily as a result of upgrading existing data processing equipment. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $303,000, or 402.5%, to $379,000 in 1997 from $75,000 in 1996 as a result of increased borrowings used to fund the Company's capital expenditures. Equity in Earnings of Geotrac, Inc. During July 1997, the Company purchased a 49% interest in Old Geotrac. Equity in earnings of Old Geotrac contributed $201,000 to the earnings of the Company in 1997. Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's effective income tax rates were 38.3% and 39.1% in 1997 and 1996, respectively. Income before provision for income taxes for 1997, excluding the equity in earnings of Old Geotrac, resulted in an effective income tax rate of 38.1%. The equity in earnings in Old Geotrac are presented net of tax. 22 28 COMPARISON OF THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995 Outsourcing Services Revenues. Outsourcing services revenues increased $1.7 million, or 48.8%, to $5.1 million in 1996 from $3.4 million in 1995 primarily as a result of an increase in the information technology services provided to BIG due to the growth in the volume of BIG's insurance business. Flood Zone Determination Services Revenues. Flood zone determination services revenue increased $2.6 million, or 50.3%, to $7.7 million in 1996 from $5.1 million in 1995, primarily as a result of significant growth in the Company's client base and in the number of requests for flood zone determinations, partially offset by a decrease in the average fee per determination due to competitive pressures. Cost of Outsourcing Services. Cost of outsourcing services increased $941,000, or 31.8%, to $3.9 million in 1996 from $3.0 million in 1995. The increase resulted primarily from additions to the Company's information technology staff due to the growth in the volume of BIG's insurance business, as well as salary adjustments due to the competitive market for qualified personnel. Cost of Flood Zone Determination Services. Cost of flood zone determination services increased $2.0 million, or 57.0%, to $5.4 million in 1996 from $3.4 million in 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to an increased demand for the Company's life of loan program, for which the Company purchases insurance to fund its obligation to update flood zone determinations under the life of loan program. Additionally, the increase in cost of flood zone determination services was attributable to the addition of flood zone determination staff to handle higher business volume levels. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $317,000 or 39.4%, to $1.1 million in 1996 from $804,000 for 1995, primarily as a result of adding additional administrative staff to support the Company's growth. Management Services from Parent. Management services from Parent increased $329,000, or 45.4%, to $1.1 million in 1996 from $725,000 in 1995. The increase is primarily related to the growth of the Company's data processing department and resulting need for additional space and human resource services, which were included in the management services allocation. Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $125,000, or 67.9%, to $309,000 in 1996 from $184,000 in 1995 primarily as a result of adding $1.0 million of property and equipment in 1996. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has historically funded its operations through cash generated from operations and receipt of service fees advanced from BIG. Bank borrowings have been used to finance fixed asset purchases. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 was $2.9 million and $3.3 million, respectively. For 1995, 1996 and 1997, net cash provided by operating activities was $831,000, $963,000 and $7.7 million, respectively. The significant increase in net cash provided by operating activities in 1997 was primarily attributable to the increased level of net income, employee-related accrued expenses and income taxes payable to BIG. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 was $513,000 and $724,000, respectively. For 1995, 1996 and 1997, net cash used in investing activities was $464,000, $1.0 million and $8.2 million, respectively. In July 1997, BHDS issued $6.75 million in non-cumulative, 8% Preferred Stock. The proceeds from the sale of the Preferred Stock were used to fund the purchase of the Company's 49% interest in Old Geotrac. In May 1998, the Company repurchased the outstanding Preferred Stock in exchange for a note. The note is payable in its entirety on December 31, 1998 and accrues interest at 8.5%. The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay the note. See "Use of Proceeds." Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 was $2.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively. For 1995, 1996 and 1997, net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(333,000), $12,000 and $681,000, respectively. Cash dividends were paid to BIG in 1996 and 1997 in the 23 29 amount of $1.0 million and $3.5 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company paid a cash dividend of $1.1 million to BIG in June, 1998. Net advances to BIG were $2.2 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1997, respectively. At December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 amounts due from BIG totaled $8.8 million and $8.3 million, respectively. At the same dates, amounts due to BIG and income tax payable to BIG, totaled $5.1 million and $6.0 million, respectively. In addition, at June 30, 1998, notes payable to BIG totaled $14.5 million. Upon completion of this offering, it is contemplated that intercompany balances will be satisfied. The Company maintained a zero balance account arrangement with BIG through June, 1998. As a result of this funding arrangement, the Company has a negative cash balance for financial reporting purposes representing checks that have been issued but that have not yet been presented to the bank for payment. This arrangement was discontinued in June, 1998. See "Certain Transactions -- Miscellaneous." The Company believes that cash flows from operations and net proceeds from this offering will not only satisfy working capital needs for approximately one year but will also be sufficient to retire or redeem most existing debts of the Company, including (i) acquisition debt of approximately $14.3 million outstanding as of June 30, 1998 and (ii) debts assigned to the Company in conjunction with the transfer of certain fixed assets from its affiliates. See "Geotrac Acquisition" and "Use of Proceeds." Prior to the consummation of the Geotrac Acquisition, Geotrac's operations generated cash flows sufficient to provide it with necessary working capital, and the Company anticipates this trend will continue in the future, although no assurances can be given in this regard. Unanticipated rapid expansion, business or systems development, or potential acquisitions may cause the Company to require additional funds. In addition, prior to this offering, the Company at times relied upon advances against the service fees it charges its affiliates to support working capital needs, which included payroll, particularly with respect to certain members of the management team who had previously allocated or divided their duties between the Company and the affiliates. After this offering, this practice will discontinue. In June, 1998, the Company received a commitment for a $5.0 million revolving line of credit with a commercial bank that will provide bridge financing for working capital or acquisition needs. The Company identifies and assesses, in the normal course of its business, technologies or businesses which it believes to strategically fit its business plan. The Company has no current commitments with respect to any such transaction. The Company may, however, enter into such transactions should opportunities present themselves in the future. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT SFAS No. 130. In June, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), Reporting of Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards of reporting and displaying of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in the financial statements. SFAS 130 requires comprehensive income to be reported with the same prominence as other items in the financial statements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes is required. The adoption of SFAS 130 in 1998 did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE The Company is currently addressing a universal situation commonly referred to as the "Year 2000 Problem." The Year 2000 Problem relates to the inability of certain computer software programs to properly recognize and process date-sensitive information relative to the Year 2000 and beyond. The Company has tested its primary operating systems and has determined that they are Year 2000 compliant. The Company has not experienced any difficulty in processing policies with terms extending beyond the Year 2000 and has not incurred significant costs in connection with determining the Year 2000 compliance of its core processing systems. The Company is now in the process of identifying non-core systems and other technology in which Year 2000 problems could be embedded and establishing a program for testing those systems for Year 2000 compliance. Management does not expect to incur material testing or compliance costs relating to this program and does not believe that the potential non-compliance of these programs presents a material risk to 24 30 the Company's financial condition or results of operations, although the Company's day-to-day operations could be interrupted on a short-term basis. The Company has also implemented a plan that requires all of its third-party software vendors to certify that their software products are Year 2000 compliant. While some vendors have responded affirmatively, a majority of the Company's vendors have not provided the required certification. If such certifications are not forthcoming and the Company does not otherwise verify the Year 2000 compliance of such products, the Company plans to obtain similar products from vendors who can provide the necessary certifications. Although management anticipates that the Company will be able to obtain such products, the Company will incur additional costs in the short term relating to the purchase price of the new software (which may be inflated if demand is high), conversion of data to the newly purchased software, and training personnel to operate the new software. Management does not expect these costs to materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. The Company has implemented a similar certification requirement for the independent agents with whom it transacts business. Most of these agents have not yet indicated that their systems are Year 2000 compliant, and the Company is unable to determine reliably their progress in this area. If these agents, or the customers with whom the Company transacts business electronically, do not become Year 2000 compliant, the Company will be required to enter the data they provide manually, which will increase the Company's production costs until compliance is achieved. Such increased costs could have a short-term material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. The Company has not established a separate Year 2000 compliance budget and does not expect to do so in the immediate future. The Company has not incurred material compliance costs to date, and although no assurance can be given, management does not expect to incur material compliance costs in the future. See "Risk Factors -- Year 2000 Compliance." 25 31 SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA OF GEOTRAC (IN THOUSANDS) The following selected financial data should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements of SMS Geotrac, Inc.

OVERVIEW During July, 1998, the Company completed the Geotrac Acquisition. The Geotrac Acquisition occurred through a series of transactions beginning in July, 1997. At that time, the Company acquired 49% of the issued and outstanding common stock of YoSystems, Inc. which had nominal net assets at the date of acquisition. YoSystems, Inc. concurrently purchased all of the issued and outstanding common stock of SMS Geotrac, Inc. ("SMS Geotrac"), an unaffiliated entity. SMS Geotrac subsequently merged into YoSystems, Inc., which changed its name to "Geotrac, Inc." ("Old Geotrac"). In July, 1998, the Company acquired the remaining 51% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Old Geotrac. For all periods presented herein and until August 1, 1997, Old Geotrac was a relatively inactive S Corporation whose principal activity was to receive contingent earn-out payments from the prior sale of its operating assets in 1994 and to distribute these earn-out payments to its shareholders. Geotrac's primary source of revenues is derived from the performance of flood zone determinations principally for mortgage origination and P&C insurance companies. Revenues are recognized upon completion of services performed. Mortgage interest rates and weather patterns have historically impacted Geotrac's revenues. The current low level of interest rates, which has stimulated the increase in the number of mortgage financings and refinancings, and the increased awareness of severe weather occurrences have resulted in an increase in the number of determinations processed by Geotrac. Cost of revenues primarily consists of wages and related benefits for personnel who perform flood zone determinations. As Geotrac continues to migrate towards performing more automated than manual determinations, management believes cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues will decrease. For comparative purposes, the operating results herein reflect the pro forma results of Old Geotrac for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 and the six months ended June 30, 1997 as if Old Geotrac acquired SMS Geotrac on January 1, 1996. The pro forma adjustments that have been made reflect the additional goodwill amortization and interest expense that would have been incurred if Old Geotrac had acquired SMS Geotrac on January 1, 1996. Additionally, for comparative purposes, the operating results herein reflect the historical results of SMS Geotrac for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997. Because Old Geotrac had limited operations during the year ended December 31, 1996 and for the period January 1, 1997 through July 31, 1997, the date of the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, Inc., no comparisons of the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 are provided. Similarly, no comparison to the prior period is provided for SMS Geotrac with respect to the one month ended July 31, 1997. 27 33 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage of revenues represented by certain income and expense items.

Revenues increased $2.3 million, or 35.8%, to $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $6.5 million for the same period in 1997. This revenue growth was attributable to the increased number of determinations processed due to the large number of mortgage financings and refinancings as a result of continued low interest rates. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased $1.1 million, or 38.2%, to $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $2.8 million for the same period in 1997. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues increased to 44.3% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 43.5% for the same period in 1997. The increase primarily relates to additions to staffing in order to process the increased number of determinations. During May, 1998, Old Geotrac began processing large blocks of flood zone determinations for the Company. Pursuant to their cross-license agreement, Old Geotrac was reimbursed on a flat monthly fee basis. The flat monthly fee resulted in revenue per determination that was significantly less than Old Geotrac was receiving from its other customers. The increase was partially offset by the effect of the efficiencies associated with the increased volume of determinations, coupled with the greater proportion of automated determinations. Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative increased $203,000, or 15.0%, to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $1.4 million for the same period in 1997. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 17.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 20.8% for the same period in 1997. This percentage decrease was primarily due to spreading certain fixed costs over a larger revenue base. Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $19,000, to $372,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $391,000 for the same period in 1997. Provision for Income Taxes. The effective income tax rate was 40.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997. COMPARISON OF YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996 ON A PRO FORMA BASIS -- GEOTRAC Revenues. Revenues increased $688,000, or 5.1%, to $14.1 million in 1997 from $13.4 million in 1996. Most of this revenue growth occurred after SMS Geotrac was acquired in July, 1997, as a result of the increased number of determinations processed due to the large number of mortgage financings and refinancings as a result of continued low interest rates. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues decreased $630,000, or 9.4%, to $6.0 million in 1997 from $6.7 million in 1996. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues decreased to 43.0% in 1997 from 49.9% in 1996. The decrease, in both actual dollar amount and as a percentage of revenues, resulted primarily from (i) efficiencies associated with an increased volume of determinations, (ii) a greater proportion of automated determinations, and (iii) higher expenses incurred in 1996 related to the expansion of Old Geotrac's automated database. Selling, General & Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $387,000, or 11.8%, to $2.9 million in 1997 from $3.3 million in 1996. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 24.6% in 1996 to 20.6% in 1997. This decrease was the result of a reduction of bad debt expense in 1997 resulting from improved billing and collection procedures. Deferred Compensation (Non-Recurring Item). On September 11, 1997, Old Geotrac's Board of Directors, recognizing the nonbinding commitment of the president of SMS Geotrac, which commitment originated prior to the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, approved and granted bonuses to certain current and former employees of SMS Geotrac. Such bonuses were principally related to prior services rendered by these employees and resulted in additional compensation in 1997 of $732,795, which amount is separately disclosed in the statement of operations as deferred compensation (non-recurring item) and of which approximately $362,000 and $371,000 relate to cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. These amounts are to be paid to the individuals on or before December 31, 1998. Prior to and at the time of the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, the president of SMS Geotrac also had a nonbinding commitment to grant to certain former and current employees options to purchase shares of Old 29 35 Geotrac common stock held jointly by the president and his spouse, for prior employee services rendered. On May 12, 1998, the president and his spouse awarded 46.45 shares of their common stock to these individuals. In conjunction with the agreement and plan of merger with the Company, Old Geotrac acquired the common stock held by these individuals for approximately $728,069. In May, 1998, Old Geotrac will record additional compensation expense (non-recurring item) of $728,069 and an increase to contributed capital of $728,069. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $55,000 to $825,000 from $770,000 in 1996. Other Income (Non-Recurring Item). In 1997, Old Geotrac received a contingent earn-out of $1,700,000, representing the final payment under a 1994 sale agreement. No payment was received in 1996. Provision for Income Taxes. The effective income tax rate was 43.4% in 1997 and 41.9% in 1996. COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996 -- SMS GEOTRAC, INC. Revenues. Revenues remained relatively unchanged at $12.5 million in fiscal 1997 and 1996. The flat revenues were primarily attributable to a lack of marketing emphasis. Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues decreased $305,000, or 4.9%, to $5.9 million in fiscal 1997 from $6.2 million for fiscal 1996. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues decreased to 47.2% in fiscal 1997 from 49.8% in fiscal 1996. Management attributes this decrease to a greater proportion of automated determinations, which are less costly than manual determinations. Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $240,000, or 7.8%, to $2.8 million in fiscal 1997 from $3.1 million in fiscal 1996. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expense decreased to 22.7% in fiscal 1997 from 24.7% in fiscal 1996. The reduction of bad debt expense in 1997, resulting from improved billing and collections procedures, accounted for the decrease in the dollar amount and percentage. Provision for Income Taxes. The effective income tax rate was 45.8% in fiscal 1997 and 43.2% in fiscal 1996, reflecting an additional provision for state income taxes in 1997. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historically, Geotrac has funded its operations primarily through cash generated from operations and to a lesser extent from capital leases and a revolving line of credit. The July, 1997 acquisition of SMS Geotrac was funded by BHDS' contribution of $6,750,000 in cash and proceeds of a seven-year term note of $8,750,000 entered into by Old Geotrac. The note, which had an outstanding balance of $7,500,000 at June 30, 1998, currently bears interest at prime rate and is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Old Geotrac. It is anticipated that the note will be repaid from a portion of the offering proceeds. In conjunction with BHDS' purchase of the remaining 51% of Old Geotrac, BHDS was the surviving company and changed its name to "Geotrac, Inc." Accordingly, Geotrac is presently a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As such, the above information should be read in conjunction with "Selected Consolidated Financial Data of the Company," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company," the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the Company's Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited). 30 36 BUSINESS GENERAL The Company provides (1) comprehensive policy and claims outsourcing services to the property and casualty ("P&C") insurance industry, with an emphasis on providing these services to the flood insurance market, and (2) flood zone determinations to financial institutions, mortgage lenders and insurance companies. The Company's outsourcing services, which are offered on either a bundled or "a la carte" basis, include policy administration, claims administration and information technology services. The Company processed approximately 575,000 insurance policies in 1997, including approximately 450,000 flood insurance policies, making it one of the largest providers of flood administration services in the United States. The Company currently provides flood outsourcing services to its affiliate, Bankers Insurance Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "BIG"), Mobile USA Insurance Company, Inc. and AAA Auto Club South Insurance Company, as well as to insurance companies that offer flood insurance utilizing BIG as their private label servicing carrier, such as Armed Forces Insurance Corporation and AMICA Mutual Insurance Company. In conjunction with BIG, the Company is able to offer insurance companies the ability to create a turnkey private label flood insurance product. The Company believes this product is attractive to insurance companies that desire to offer flood insurance but are not certified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") to sell and service flood insurance. FEMA estimates that only 25% to 33% of U.S. properties required to be covered by flood insurance are in fact covered. The Company anticipates continued growth in the demand for flood insurance, and related flood outsourcing and flood zone determination services, over the next several years. In 1997, the Company processed approximately 1.4 million flood zone determinations for over 730 customers, including financial institutions such as SouthTrust Bank, mortgage lenders such as ABN Amro North America, Inc. and Mortgage Corporation of America, and P&C insurance companies such as Allendale Mutual Insurance Company and Wausau Underwriters Insurance Company. Flood insurance is required by federal law in connection with virtually all residential mortgage loans, including refinancing loans, covering properties located within federally designated high-risk flood zones. A flood zone determination is necessary in order to ascertain a property's flood zone classification. In addition, due to more stringent underwriting criteria, P&C insurers increasingly require flood zone determinations prior to issuing commercial property policies. The Company uses its proprietary database, compiled and digitized from flood maps distributed by FEMA, to determine whether a particular property or structure is located within a flood zone classification that requires flood insurance. The Company estimates that its electronic database includes over 85% of all U.S. households. The Company is a 77.6% owned subsidiary of BIG, a holding company chartered in Florida in 1976. BIG provides multiple lines of P&C insurance, most notably flood, homeowners and automobile insurance, to individuals and businesses throughout the United States. From 1993 to 1997, BIG's premiums grew from $113.7 million to $259.0 million, representing annual growth rates of 14.8%, 22.5%, 46.8% and 10.4%, respectively, and a compound annual growth rate of 22.8%. BIG is the largest underwriter of flood insurance policies through independent agents (and the second largest overall) in the United States. Upon completion of this offering, BIG will beneficially own % of the Company's Common Stock. BIG is the Company's principal customer, accounting for approximately 56% of the Company's total revenues (on a pro forma basis) and 98% of the Company's outsourcing revenues (on a pro forma basis) in 1997. OVERVIEW OF THE FEDERAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM The U.S. flood insurance market is regulated by FEMA, which launched the National Flood Insurance Program (the "Flood Program") in 1968. FEMA created the Flood Program to provide federally-backed flood insurance to residents in designated floodplain communities, on the condition that such communities comply with the Flood Program's floodplain management requirements. The Flood Program, as it exists today, is administered by the Federal Insurance Administration ("FIA"). 31 37 The Flood Program was launched in 1968, and in 1983, FIA opened the flood insurance market to private insurance companies by establishing the National Flood Insurance Write Your Own ("WYO") program. The WYO program permits private insurance companies who meet FEMA requirements to sell flood insurance underwritten by the federal government and subject to federal regulation. In 1994, Congress passed the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 (the "1994 Reform Act"). The 1994 Reform Act clarified and strengthened the obligations of mortgage lenders to oversee and ensure the purchase of flood insurance by borrowers who obtain federally-insured residential mortgage loans on properties located in federally designated high-risk flood zones. Under the 1994 Reform Act, mortgage lenders must notify borrowers when flood insurance is required, require flood insurance as a condition to making certain loans, and place flood insurance premiums in escrow. Lenders who fail to comply with the 1994 Reform Act are subject to substantial monetary penalties. MARKET OPPORTUNITIES Growth in the Flood Market. The U.S. flood insurance market has grown significantly in recent years. Currently, almost 19,000 communities participate in the Flood Program, and approximately 100 insurance companies are registered to offer WYO flood insurance. The following table illustrates the growth in flood insurance policies and premiums under the Flood Program since 1987 and highlights the Company's increased penetration of this growing market: PERCENTAGE OF ANNUAL TOTAL FLOOD TOTAL NUMBER OF NUMBER OF FLOOD PROGRAM FLOOD PREMIUMS POLICIES IN FLOOD POLICIES TOTAL ANNUAL PREMIUMS ADMINISTERED FLOOD ADMINISTERED BY FLOOD ADMINISTERED BY BY THE AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, PROGRAM(1) THE COMPANY PREMIUMS(2) THE COMPANY COMPANY - ------------------- --------------- --------------- ------------- --------------- ------------- (IN 000'S) (IN 000'S) (IN 000'S) (IN 000'S) 1987.......... 2,023 55 $ 554,249 $ 16,105 2.9% 1988.......... 2,052 66 571,265 17,918 3.1 1989.......... 2,167 91 623,409 21,277 3.4 1990.......... 2,341 115 658,359 27,055 4.1 1991.......... 2,459 142 716,650 33,171 4.6 1992.......... 2,530 156 779,746 37,723 4.8 1993.......... 2,690 193 859,128 49,591 5.8 1994.......... 2,805 208 946,898 58,737 6.2 1995.......... 3,265 274 1,114,059 79,914 7.2 1996.......... 3,546 376 1,209,178 101,973 8.4 1997.......... 3,811 453 1,390,015 132,041 9.5 - --------------- (1) Source: National Flood Insurance Program Bureau and Statistical Agent and the 1997 FIA Annual Report.

The following table illustrates the growth in the number of flood zone determinations performed by the Company from 1994 through 1997: TOTAL NUMBER OF TOTAL NUMBER OF FLOOD ZONE DETERMINATIONS 1-4 FAMILY MORTGAGE YEAR GENERATED BY THE COMPANY LOAN ORIGINATIONS IN U.S.(1) - ---- ------------------------- ---------------------------- 1994................................... 458,232 7,484,600 1995................................... 757,642 5,976,700 1996................................... 1,191,182 6,882,300 1997................................... 1,384,089 7,192,000 - --------------- (1) Reported by Mortgage Bankers Association of America ("MBAA") based on statistics from the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development, the Federal Housing Finance Board and the MBAA. 32 38 The Company believes that the demand for flood outsourcing services and flood zone determinations will continue to grow as a result of the following factors: - Higher Levels of Compliance with Federal Flood Laws. The 1994 Reform Act has compelled mortgage lenders to enforce federal flood insurance requirements or be subject to substantial monetary penalties. As a result, a higher percentage of purchasers of residential property located in federally designated high-risk flood zones are being required to purchase flood insurance as a condition to receiving mortgage financing from a federally-backed financial institution. Based on a FEMA estimate that only 25% to 33% of U.S. properties required to be covered by flood insurance are in fact covered, and given that only approximately 3.8 million U.S. properties were covered as of September 30, 1997, management estimates that approximately 11.4 million to 15.2 million U.S. properties are in fact required to be covered by flood insurance. The Company believes the demand for flood insurance outsourcing services will grow as compliance with federal flood insurance requirements increases. The Company also believes such compliance will result in greater demand for flood zone determinations, since a flood zone determination is necessary in order to determine whether a property is located in a high-risk flood zone. - Increase in Voluntary Purchase of Flood Insurance. The Company expects the number of property owners who purchase flood insurance on a voluntary basis to increase over the next several years. Management believes consumers are increasingly aware that affordable flood insurance is available to them through the Flood Program. Management attributes this growing awareness to a number of factors, including (1) the Flood Program's national advertising campaign, known as Cover America, which began in 1995, (2) increasing consumer awareness that the typical homeowners' policy does not cover flood damage, and (3) the occurrence of several recent flooding disasters, such as the Mississippi River floods of 1993 and the Red River floods of 1997. Similarly, the substantial media attention given the El Nino phenomenon and the resulting severe weather patterns, have heightened the public's awareness that flood insurance may be necessary even for properties not located in high-risk flood zone classifications. Approximately 25% to 30% of flood damage claims paid relate to properties located outside such flood zone classifications. According to the National Flood Insurance Program Bureau and Statistical Agency, the number of flood insurance policies purchased by homeowners on a voluntary basis has increased from 168,000 policies as of September 30, 1994 to 442,000 policies as of September 30, 1997, a compound annual growth rate of 38.0%. - Growth in Commercial Flood Zone Determination Business. The demand for flood zone determinations by commercial property insurers and commercial mortgage lenders has increased recently and the Company expects this growth pattern to continue. Commercial property insurance policies generally cover floods and similar events. As public attention has focused more closely on severe weather patterns in recent years and insurers have become increasingly aware of the importance of flood coverage, P&C insurers that issue such policies have been developing more stringent underwriting criteria. Trend Toward Outsourcing in the P&C Industry. The P&C industry provides financial protection for individuals, businesses and others against losses of property or losses by third parties for which the insured is liable. P&C insurers underwrite policies that cover various types of risk, which can generally be divided into personal lines of insurance covering individuals and commercial lines of insurance covering businesses. Personal lines are comprised primarily of automobile and homeowners insurance. Commercial lines cover a wide range of commercial risks that affect businesses. According to A.M. Best, premium revenues in the P&C industry have increased by an average of 3.5% annually since 1990. The P&C industry is highly competitive, with insurance companies competing primarily on the basis of price, consumer satisfaction and the ability to pay claims. According to A.M. Best, as of December 31, 1997, there were approximately 3,300 P&C insurance companies in the United States. These companies generated approximately $277 billion in annual P&C premium revenues in 1997, of which more than one-half related to personal lines automobile, homeowners and flood insurance business, the core markets 33 39 serviced by the Company. The Company believes there are a significant number of P&C insurance companies for which outsourcing is a viable alternative to maintaining in-house processing capabilities. More specifically, the Company believes it can offer many of these insurance companies the opportunity to reduce their processing costs by outsourcing such functions to the Company for a flat fee. Over the past decade, many P&C insurance companies have begun using third-party vendors to provide certain policy and claims administration services that were traditionally performed in-house. This outsourcing of services allows insurers to focus on their core competencies, reduce costs and eliminate capital expenditures for the development, installation, operation and maintenance of information management and automation systems. Insurance companies historically have invested less in information technology than companies in other industries. In 1996, for example, insurance companies spent only 2.4% of revenues on information technology, as compared to 6.6% for banking firms and 2.9% for all industry sectors combined. The Company believes that insurance companies will increase their levels of outsourcing as they determine that policy and claims administration and regulatory compliance are complicated and too costly to perform efficiently in-house. According to forecasts published by The Yankee Group, the amount spent annually by insurers on outsourcing is expected to increase from $5 billion in 1997 to $13 billion within the next five years. The Company believes it will have significant opportunities to market its outsourcing services for the following reasons: - Consolidation and Drive for Cost Efficiencies. Providers of outsourcing services are able to consolidate large volumes of business into automated and effective processing systems, thereby creating significant cost efficiencies. The Company believes insurance companies typically outsource administrative services because outsource providers can provide better quality services at a lower cost. - Technological Challenges and Complexities. The investment in the specialized technical knowledge required to develop, install and operate information systems necessary for P&C insurers to remain competitive is often cost prohibitive, particularly for smaller companies and new entrants to the market. Insurance companies can take advantage of the economies of technology created by an outsource provider's investment in information systems. For example, the Company believes the Year 2000 issue will generate additional demand for outsourcing services because many insurance companies will resolve the Year 2000 issue by either purchasing new software systems or outsourcing some or all of their policy and claims requirements. - Changing Distribution Channels. The Company believes that demand for outsourcing services will increase as banks, credit unions and other financial service companies enter the P&C market. These new entrants were generally precluded from selling insurance until the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Barnett Bank v. Nelson in 1996. The Company believes that, following this decision, and despite continuing restrictions and pressure from state regulators, banks and other financial institutions will enter the P&C market at an increasing rate, often forming joint ventures and other alliances with certain insurers to sell P&C insurance. Many new entrants lack the technology, expertise or desire to perform policy and claims processing in-house. These so-called "virtual insurance companies" often focus their resources on the core marketing, underwriting and financial aspects of the P&C business and seek to outsource their policy and claims administration to third-party vendors. The Company believes that it is well-positioned to provide services to new entrants to the P&C market. - Regulatory Reporting Requirements. State insurance regulators closely regulate the product offerings, claims processes and premium rate structures of insurance companies. To comply with such regulations, companies must file annual and other reports relating to their financial condition. Third-party vendors with effective policy and claims administration systems can facilitate compliance with many regulatory requirements by automating statutory reporting and other compliance tasks. 34 40 THE IMSG SOLUTION The Company believes it has positioned itself to capitalize on the foregoing market opportunities in the following ways: - Flood Insurance Experience. The Company is one of the leading providers of flood insurance outsourcing services in the United States, currently servicing over 450,000 flood insurance policies. As a result, the Company has developed substantial expertise and scale in virtually all aspects of the flood insurance servicing business. - Flexible, Comprehensive, Turnkey Solutions. The Company offers a comprehensive range of outsourcing services, both individually and on a bundled basis, giving clients flexibility in selecting and matching services to their needs. The Company's turnkey solutions allow clients to focus on core competencies and better manage costs and allow new market entrants an opportunity to offer insurance products on a cost-effective basis by leveraging the Company's systems and business processes. - Insurance Industry Expertise. Unlike certain of its competitors, the Company's senior management has substantial experience in the insurance industry. See "Management." As a result of this core competence, management believes the Company is better suited to understand and address its customers' needs. - Flood Zone Determination Services. The Company offers a highly automated flood zone determination service based on its proprietary national database. This service provides an accurate, prompt and relatively low cost determination of a residential or commercial property's status with respect to national flood zones. Insurance companies, credit unions, banks and other financial institutions use this service to comply with federal laws requiring mortgage lenders to oversee and ensure the purchase of flood insurance by certain borrowers, create a competitive advantage in loan approval/insurance underwriting response time and generate additional fees from their borrowers. - Modular, Integrated and Real-time Systems. The Company's information systems are table-driven and modular in design, enabling the Company to provide systems that address the specific needs of the client, such as distinct underwriting rules. The core system permits integration of a client's database, thereby eliminating the need for data re-entry for multiple applications. The system provides real-time processing of key functions, such as policy processing and endorsements, that enhances completeness and accuracy in processing. The Company's system also has a proven track record of reliability and low system "down-time." The Company is committed to upgrading and maintaining its systems in an effort to remain competitive. - Customer Service to Independent Agent Networks and Policyholders. Because residential flood insurance rates are set by FEMA and therefore are not directly subject to competitive pressures, the Company believes customer service is a critical consideration for independent sales agents in determining which carrier's flood insurance policies to sell. BIG is the largest underwriter of flood insurance policies through independent agents in the United States, and the Company processes and services all of BIG's flood insurance policies. The Company believes that as a result of its affiliation with BIG it has developed a customer service-oriented culture that strengthens its clients' relationships with their independent sales agent networks and policyholders. The Company focuses on providing superior service, such as timely policy issuance and rapid and professional response to agent and policyholder inquiries. The Company maintains and monitors quality service standards and continually seeks to measures customer satisfaction. The Company believes that its focus on customer service has enabled it to retain all of its principal outsourcing customers since 1994. 35 41 GROWTH STRATEGY The Company's objectives are (1) to become a leading provider of outsourcing services to the P&C industry and (2) to become the leading provider of flood zone determinations to financial institutions, mortgage lenders and P&C insurers. The Company's principal strategies for achieving these objectives are as follows: - Expand Flood Outsourcing Business. The Company has extensive experience and expertise in virtually all aspects of the flood insurance servicing business and occupies a leading position in that market. Key aspects of the Company's growth strategy include (1) marketing flood outsourcing services to existing WYO carriers that it believes will benefit for cost or infrastructure reasons from the Company's services, (2) offering its outsourcing services to new entrants that lack the infrastructure or expertise necessary to service flood insurance customers, (3) marketing its ability, in conjunction with BIG, to provide and service a private label insurance product to insurance companies that desire to offer flood insurance but are not certified by FEMA to sell and service flood insurance, and (4) increasing the volume of flood outsourcing services business from the Company's existing customer base, which includes over 20 customers under contract, either directly or through BIG. - Expand Relationships with Existing Customers. The Company intends to capitalize on its existing flood insurance outsourcing customer base and substantial flood zone determination customer base by cross-marketing its flood, homeowners and automobile outsourcing services to certain of these customers. Management believes these marketing opportunities are especially prevalent today, given that recent regulatory changes have permitted non-traditional insurance companies -- most notably banks, credit unions and other financial services companies -- to enter the P&C insurance industry. These new entrants -- many of which are existing flood zone determination customers of the Company -- often do not have the necessary infrastructure or expertise in place and are natural candidates for outsourcing. See "-- Market Opportunities." - Focus on Maximizing Economies of Scale. The Company believes that demand for P&C insurance outsourcing services will grow as such services become more affordable and cost effective. To achieve such affordability and cost effectiveness, a P&C outsourcing provider must develop certain economies of scale. The Company currently services over 575,000 insurance policies annually. As a result, it has developed a large number of efficiencies in most aspects of its operations, from the receipt of policy applications to billings and collections. By deploying internally developed applications software, rating disks for applications input, lockbox and cash office processing, automated voice response, computerized forms and automated policy assembly, the Company has attained expense efficiencies that management believes are characteristic of insurers processing substantially greater policy volumes. As a consequence, the Company believes it is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing trend toward outsourcing administrative functions in the P&C industry by offering insurers better quality and more cost-effective "back office" operations. Moreover, the Company intends to continue expanding these efficiencies by increasing the utilization of its existing infrastructure and databases. - Expand Direct Sales Force and Develop Strategic Relationships. The Company has recently begun to develop a direct sales force and sales support organization to focus on new customer opportunities and generate additional business from the Company's current customer base. The Company is also seeking to develop new business opportunities by creating additional strategic distribution and marketing alliances. For example, the Company's flood zone determination business targets credit unions of all sizes through its marketing alliance with CUNA Mutual Group, the largest provider of insurance products to credit unions, and large mortgage lenders through its marketing alliance with Equifax Mortgage Services, the nation's largest mortgage credit reporting agency. See "-- Services." - Generate Recurring Revenues. The Company seeks to generate recurring revenues by entering into contractual relationships (typically one to three years) with its outsourcing customers and by 36 42 offering services that are structured to generate revenues based on events that occur frequently in the normal course of a customer's business, such as claims, mortgage applications and insurance policy renewals. - Pursue Strategic Acquisitions. A key element of the Company's growth strategy is to pursue potential acquisitions that offer opportunities to increase market share or expand the Company's line of outsourcing services. The Company's recent Geotrac Acquisition enabled it to solidify its position as a leader in the flood zone determination business and broaden the range of ancillary services the Company is able to provide. Moreover, the Company is currently in the process of consolidating its own flood zone determination operations with those of Old Geotrac. See "Geotrac Acquisition." SERVICES Outsourcing Services. The Company's outsourcing services include policy administration, claims administration and information technology services. The Company works with each customer in an effort to ensure a seamless integration of the customer's in-house and outsourced activities. Policy administration describes the range of services the Company offers customers that are considering outsourcing their policy administration functions. When policy administration is outsourced, the customer retains all financial risk and works with the Company to set underwriting and rating guidelines. The Company typically receives a percentage of premiums for performing policy administration services. The Company's policy administration menu includes the following services: policy processing and related data entry; policy issuance and acceptance; premium management and distribution; accounting, billing and collections; customer service phone center for policyholders and agents; and data collection, statutory reporting and regulatory compliance. Claims administration describes the range of services the Company offers in connection with the management of insurance claims. In reviewing a claim, the Company performs a thorough claim analysis and, if warranted, prepares a check for payment of the claim. The Company has a special investigative unit that assists in detecting and deterring fraud in the claim review process. The Company also offers a fully automated, stand-alone catastrophe claims operation, distinguishing its outsourcing services in the P&C insurance market. The Company is typically compensated for claims administration services on either a percentage of earned premiums or claims-paid basis. The Company's claims administration menu includes the following services: toll-free claim reporting; initial coverage confirmation services; loss investigation and determination; review and appraisal of claims; special investigation services, including fraud detection; adjustment of claims and vendor management; litigation management; and settlement and payment of claims. The Company also offers a range of information technology services to assist customers in operating, maintaining and enhancing information systems. The Company integrates the customer's system platform with the Company's processing platform, including the installation of all necessary hardware components, depending on the customer's needs. This integration allows the customer to administer its policies and claims internally by using the Company's systems and software. The Company typically receives a percentage of premiums as compensation, subject to a minimum fee. The Company's information technology menu includes the following services: information management via integrated, secure computer systems; document imaging; on-line rating and underwriting services; monetary systems services, including payment processing; automated printing, packaging and distribution of documents; generation of agent commission statements and production reports; security administration and access control; software application enhancement and maintenance; problem resolution and reporting; and data backup and disaster recovery functions. Because the Company is affiliated with and provides comprehensive outsourcing services to BIG, a certified WYO carrier under the Flood Program, it emphasizes to prospective customers its ability to provide third-party administration outsourcing for flood insurance. The Company offers its flood outsourcing services, including software and processing functions, policy administration, claims administration and statistical reporting, on either a bundled or "a la carte" basis. New market entrants and certain other insurers may prefer to purchase unbundled services, allowing them to retain in-house control over specific aspects of their 37 43 businesses. The Company makes available virtually any combination of outsourcing services required by the customer. The Company also offers flood outsourcing services to insurance companies that seek to provide flood insurance, but do not want to become certified WYO carriers. In this case, the services are provided in conjunction with a proprietary flood product. An insurance company can establish a private label insurance product written through BIG whereby the customer's name and logo appear on the policy documents, while BIG acts as the servicing carrier. The Company also intends to market its outsourcing services to banks, credit unions and other financial institutions as they become increasingly involved in the sale of insurance. Flood Zone Determination Business. For a fixed fee, the Company will provide a customer -- typically a mortgage loan originator or an insurance company -- with a determination as to whether a specified property is located within a federally-designated flood zone classification. The Company uses its proprietary national flood zone database to make flood zone determinations. This database, which is continually updated, allows the Company to determine if a particular structure is located within the special flood hazard areas established by FEMA. These determinations assist mortgage lenders in complying with federal regulations under which they must require borrowers to purchase the appropriate level of flood insurance. Management estimates that approximately 85% of all U.S. households are captured in the Company's flood zone database. For approximately 70% of determinations requested, the Company is able to perform automated flood zone determinations in a matter of seconds. Determinations made on a fully-automated basis are significantly more cost effective than manual determinations. In some cases, particularly where a property is not clearly within or outside a flood hazard area, the database search will not produce an automatic determination, or "hit," and a manual search becomes necessary. Manual searches require extra time and labor and are not nearly as cost effective as fully-automated searches. The Company provides both one-time and life-of-loan flood zone determinations. Under a "life of loan" determination, the Company is responsible for updating the initial flood zone determination based on revisions to the federal flood maps occurring during the term of the loan. The Company also provides portfolio analyses and audits for mortgage service agencies by reviewing blocks of loans that usually require between 100 and 50,000 flood zone determinations. In addition to flood zone determinations, the Company provides flood-related ancillary services. For example, the Company provides a standard flood compliance packet to lenders which includes information on community status, mapping, specific structure location, amount of flood insurance required, secondary market and government program restrictions, and floodway and coastal zone barrier restrictions. The life-of-loan product tracks both community status and FEMA map changes on a daily basis for the life of the loan. If changes occur that affect the subject property, a new report is automatically generated for no additional charge. Certain ancillary services are transferable if the mortgage loan for which the flood zone determination was done is sold or transferred. Through its GeoCompass(R) service, the Company provides certain CD-ROM services on-site at customer locations. The CD-ROM delivery system offers customers the ability to perform certain flood zone determinations at their own desktops. The Company also actively seeks to leverage its expertise in mapping technology by providing ancillary mapping services. For example, the Company has been engaged by various municipalities to digitize manual property tax maps and then integrate these maps with appraisal data. Most municipality property tax maps have not been digitized and the Company believes there is a significant opportunity to penetrate this market. Additionally, the Company was recently hired by the Columbus, Ohio Police Department to digitize property records and then integrate these records with crime statistics in order to better monitor crime trend activity. The Company believes there are numerous other related opportunities to apply its core mapping technology expertise. The Company has established a relationship with Kirloskar Computer Services ("KCS"), located in India, which the Company believes can provide certain services that will increase the efficiency of the Company's flood zone determination business. Under a Secrecy and Confidentiality Agreement, KCS has agreed, for a period of five years from the date of termination of its relationship with Geotrac, not to engage, directly or indirectly, in certain activities relating to Geotrac's business. KCS currently builds databases and 38 44 creates digitized maps that the Company uses in connection with its flood zone determination business. In addition, KCS is able to perform manual flood zone determination searches at costs significantly below U.S. market rates. The Company currently plans to capitalize on its relationship with KCS by implementing a pilot program pursuant to which the Company will outsource approximately 20% of its manual searches to KCS over the next several years. This pilot program is subject to change based upon political and economic conditions in India. The Company uses different pricing and contractual arrangements for one-time and life-of-loan flood zone determinations. The Company performs flood zone determinations for both residential and commercial properties, with determinations for residential properties comprising approximately 85% of such business. CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND INSTALLATION The Company's outsourcing services are provided from two separate customer service centers in St. Petersburg, Florida -- one for policy and claims administration and one for catastrophic claims administration. The policy administration center has approximately 200 employees, most of whom are trained customer service representatives. Customer service representatives are responsible for the timely handling and resolution of incoming phone calls related to underwriting, rating, billing, policy status and other policy administration matters. While most calls come from insurance agents, the phone center also handles calls from mortgage companies, policyholders and insureds. The policy administration phone center handles an average of approximately 17,000 calls per week. The claims administration customer service center is responsible primarily for handling calls from claimants and insureds reporting property losses. The center also handles calls from agents and others related to coverage of existing claims. The center has approximately 160 employees, approximately half of which are licensed claims representatives responsible for the adjustment of claims. Incoming calls are taken by 15 customer service representatives who are trained to handle all types of insurance claims. Unlike many other claims administration centers, the Company's service center is able to immediately assign each claim to a licensed adjuster for processing. The claims administration switchboard is open weekdays from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. (Eastern time), and customer service representatives and licensed adjusters are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to handle emergency claims. The Company currently maintains two separate customer service centers relating exclusively to its flood zone determination business, one of which was acquired as part of the acquisition of Geotrac. The Company is currently in the process of consolidating its own flood zone determination operations with those of Geotrac. See "Geotrac Acquisition." The Company believes the service center acquired as part of the Geotrac Acquisition is one of the largest flood zone determination service centers in the industry. A team comprised of a senior manager and up to four service representatives is assigned to each customer account. The team advises the customer in all matters of flood compliance and will train a customer's staff at their own or the Company's offices. The team also provides direct support to their customers' independent direct sales agent networks. The Company installs its GeoCompass(R) CD-ROM system on site at customer locations. GeoCompass(R), which enables customers to make their own flood zone determinations, is based on the Windows operating system, operates on the customer's network and is relatively simple for customers to learn to use. SALES AND MARKETING The Company seeks to market its outsourcing capabilities by leveraging its existing expertise in flood insurance administration, expanding its relationships with existing flood zone determination customers and targeting prospective customers, such as insurers with high expense ratios or limited expertise in certain P&C lines. The Company recently formed a sales and marketing division dedicated to direct sales of its outsourcing services. The Company began staffing its sales and marketing division in 1997. This division now includes a senior vice president, a marketing vice president, two full-time sales representatives, two project managers and a marketing assistant. The Company plans to add two additional full-time sales representatives in the near 39 45 future. In addition to direct marketing, the Company markets its P&C outsourcing services through insurance brokers, reinsurers and other strategic partners. The Company also advertises in various trade publications and participates in industry conventions and trade shows to enhance the penetration of its flood and non-flood markets. The Company markets its flood zone determination services both directly through its own sales personnel and indirectly through its alliances with other service providers. For example, the Company targets credit unions of all sizes through its alliance with CUNA Mutual Group, the nation's largest provider of insurance products to credit unions, and large mortgage lenders through its alliance with Equifax Mortgage Services, believed by the Company to be the largest mortgage credit reporting agency in the U.S. INFORMATION SYSTEMS The Company utilizes fully-integrated, real-time, processing systems at its St. Petersburg facilities to provide many of its outsourcing services. These systems, which run on an IBM AS/400 platform coupled with a relational database, enable the Company to provide on-line ratings and underwriting information, issue required insurance forms to policyholders and agents and produce renewal and non-renewal notices. The processing systems interface with a disbursement system which enables the Company to generate checks automatically. A separate IBM AS/400 is used to develop, enhance, and test new and existing systems. In the event of a power failure, the AS/400 site is supported by a fully-functional backup system that provides additional processing time of one hour under full load. Insurance policies and related documents are scanned to optical disks, and are retrievable at most LAN workstations. The Company also has an optical jukebox that can store approximately 10 million documents. The Company data center has controls to ensure security and a disaster recovery plan which is tested regularly. The Company also utilizes computer systems at its Geotrac location, including two IBM AS/400 processors. Geotrac also has several major production systems, including GeoCompass(R) and life-of-loan tracking. The Company is capable of developing modifications or enhancements to its licensed software to meet its outsourcing customers' particular needs. Business analysts from the Company work with each customer to ensure that the Company understands the customer's system requirements. Once the system requirements have been documented, the Company dedicates a team of systems analysts to develop the appropriate modifications or enhancements to its software system. The Company believes that the principal computer equipment and software currently used by the Company will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. See "Risk Factors -- Year 2000 Issues" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company -- Year 2000 Compliance." CUSTOMERS The Company currently provides outsourcing services to 18 companies. The Company's largest customer, BIG, accounted for approximately 40%, 37%, 76% and 56%, respectively, of the Company's revenues in 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1997 (pro forma). Any material decrease in the outsourcing business from BIG would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. See "Risk Factors -- Reliance on Key Customer." The Company provides outsourcing services to other WYO carriers, including AAA Auto Club South Insurance Company and Mobile USA Insurance Company, Inc. The Company also provides outsourcing services to various insurance companies, such as Armed Forces Insurance Corporation and AMICA Mutual Insurance Company, that utilize BIG as their servicing carrier. The Company provides flood zone determination services to over 730 banks, credit unions, mortgage lenders, insurance companies and, other financial institutions. The Company's principal financial institution customers for such services include SouthTrust Bank. The Company's principal insurance company customers for such services include Allendale Mutual Insurance Company and Wausau Underwriters Insurance 40 46 Company. In addition, the Company provides flood zone determination services to numerous credit unions, a number of which became customers as a result of the Company's alliance with CUNA Mutual Group, the nation's largest provider of insurance products to credit unions. The Company also provides such services to mortgage lenders such as ABN Amro North America, Inc. and Mortgage Corporation of America primarily through its alliance with Equifax Mortgage Services, believed by the Company to be the largest mortgage credit reporting agency in the U.S. COMPETITION The Company competes principally in three markets: (1) the market for flood insurance outsourcing services, (2) the market for other P&C insurance outsourcing services and (3) the market for flood zone determination services. The markets for these services are highly competitive. The market for flood insurance outsourcing services is dominated by the Company and several principal competitors, including National Con-Serv, Inc. and Electronic Data Systems, Inc. The Company competes for these outsourcing customers largely on the basis of price, customer service and responsiveness. The market for other P&C insurance outsourcing services is fragmented. In the policy administration services segment of this market, principal competitors include Policy Management Services Corporation and INSpire Insurance Solutions, Inc. In this segment of the market, the Company competes for customers on the basis of customer service, performance and price. The claims administration services segment of the P&C outsourcing market also is highly fragmented, with competition from a large number of claims administration companies of varying size, as well as independent contractors. Competition in this segment of the outsourcing market is principally price driven. Competitors include Lindsey Morden Claim Services, Inc., Crawford & Company, Inc. and INSpire Insurance Solutions, Inc. The Company believes, however, that its most significant competition for P&C insurance outsourcing services comes from policy and claims administration performed in-house by insurance companies. Insurers that fulfill some or all of their policy and claims administration needs in-house typically have made a significant investment in their information processing systems and may be less likely to utilize the Company's services. In addition, insurance company personnel have a vested interest in maintaining these responsibilities in-house. The market for flood zone determination services is dominated by the Company and several principal competitors, including First American Financial, Pinnacle Data Corporation (a subsidiary of National Insurance Group), TransAmerica, Chicago Title Corp. and Palma Lazar & Ulsh. The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the market for flood zone determinations include price, quality and reliability of services, and response time. Certain of the Company's competitors in each of these markets have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than the Company, including name recognition with current and potential customers. As a result, these competitors may devote more resources to the development, promotion and sale of their services or products than the Company and respond more quickly to emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, or that competitive pressure faced by the Company will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. 41 47 FACILITIES The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the principal facilities used in the Company's operations: SQUARE LOCATION FEET FUNCTION LEASE EXPIRATION -------- ------ -------- ---------------- St. Petersburg, 76,700 Corporate Headquarters December 1999(2) Florida(1)............ and Outsourcing St. Petersburg, 7,400 Outsourcing December 1999(2) Florida(1)............

See "Certain Transactions." (2) The Company has the option to renew each of these leases for an additional two-year period. (3) The Company is currently negotiating with BIG to reassign this lease to BIG as of the end of 1998. No assurances can be given that such assignment will occur. (4) The Company has the option to renew each of these leases for an additional five-year period. The Company believes that its existing facilities and additional or alternate space available to it are adequate to meet its requirements for the foreseeable future. EMPLOYEES As of July 31, 1998, the Company had 810 full-time employees, consisting of 15 in sales and marketing, 444 in customer service and support, 318 in technical support, and 33 in management, administration and finance. None of the Company's employees is subject to a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company considers its relations with its employees generally to be good. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceedings other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the results of such litigation, even if the outcome were unfavorable to the Company, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. Bankers Insurance Company ("BIC"), a subsidiary of BIG, the Company's principal shareholder and customer, is currently subject to an investigation by the Florida Department of Insurance (the "DOI"), the principal regulator of insurance activities in the State of Florida, stemming from BIC's use of a private investigator to gather information on a DOI employee and the private investigator's unauthorized use of illegal wiretaps in connection therewith. In addition, BIC and certain of its employees (one of whom is now an officer of IMS and several of whom are now employees of the Company) have been subpoenaed on behalf of FEMA to produce documentation or testify in connection with its investigation of, among other things, certain of BIC's cash management practices. In the event either or both of these investigations or any consequence thereof materially adversely affects the business or operations of BIC, it could result in the loss of or material decrease in the Company's business from BIC, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. 42 48 MANAGEMENT DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS The Company's Board of Directors consists of eight members divided into three classes, with the members of each class serving three-year terms expiring at the third annual meeting of shareholders.

LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN The Company currently maintains a Long Term Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") to attract, retain and motivate participating employees of the Company and its subsidiaries through awards of shares of Common Stock, options to purchase shares of Common Stock and stock appreciation rights ("SARs"). A total of shares of Common Stock may be issued pursuant to the Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plan has been adopted by the Company's Board of Directors and is expected to be approved by the shareholders of the Company prior to the consummation of this offering. The Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive or nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock. Upon the completion of this offering, the executive officers of the Company will be granted options to purchase a total of shares of Common Stock at the initial public offering price as follows: David K. Meehan, shares; Jeffrey S. Bragg, shares; Kelly K. King, shares; and Daniel J. White, shares. All employees of the Company as a group, including these executive officers, will be granted options to purchase a total shares of Common Stock at the initial public offering price. All of such options expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. Options shall become exercisable 60% after three years, 20% after four years and 20% after five years. The Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS' STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company also maintains a Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Non-Employee Director Plan") to secure for the Company and its shareholders the benefits of the incentive inherent in increased Common Stock ownership by the members of the Company's Board of Directors who are not 47 53 employees of the Company. The Non-Employee Director Plan has been adopted by the Company's Board of Directors and is expected to be approved by the shareholders of the Company prior to the consummation of this offering. The Non-Employee Director Plan provides for the grant of nonqualified stock options to purchase up to 7,200 shares of Common Stock in any three-year period to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees of the Company. As of the date of this Prospectus, such members held no options under the Non- Employee Director Plan. The Company will initially grant to each non-employee director options to purchase 7,200 shares of Common Stock. Non-employee directors receiving such options will become vested in options for the purchase of 800 shares of Common Stock after the adjournment of each annual meeting of shareholders of the Company, to the extent he or she has been granted options that have not yet vested, and provided that he or she is then a non-employee director of the Company. In addition, each non-employee director shall become vested in options for the purchase of 400 shares of Common Stock (200 shares in the event the non-employee director is absent from, arrives late for, or departs early from, such meeting) upon the adjournment of each regularly scheduled quarterly meeting of the Board of Directors (other than following the annual meeting of shareholders), to the extent he or she has been granted options that have not yet vested, and provided that he or she is then a non-employee director of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Robert M. Menke nor Robert G. Menke will accept any option grants under the Non-Employee Director Plan. All options granted will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock as of the date of grant, will become exercisable upon vesting, and will expire on the sixth anniversary of the date of grant. The Non-Employee Director Plan is a formula plan and accordingly is intended to be self-governing. To the extent that questions of interpretation arise, they will be resolved by the Board of Directors. NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company's Board of Directors also has adopted a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the "Non-Qualified Plan"), which plan is expected to be approved by the shareholders of the Company prior to the consummation of this offering. The Non-Qualified Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options to purchase up to shares of Common Stock. Upon the completion of this offering, options to purchase shares of Common Stock at the initial public offering price will be granted to certain executive officers of BIG, including options to purchase shares each to Messrs. Robert M. Menke and Robert G. Menke, directors of the Company. All of such options expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. Options shall become exercisable 60% after three years, 20% after four years and 20% after five years. The Non-Qualified Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company. DIRECTOR COMPENSATION Directors who are executive officers of the Company receive no compensation as such for service as members of either the Board of Directors or committees thereof. Directors who are not executive officers of the Company receive $1,000 per Board meeting attended and $150 ($200 in the case of a committee chairperson) per committee meeting attended, plus reimbursement of reasonable expenses.

The term of each Service Agreement shall expire on June 1, 2001, provided that it shall thereafter be automatically extended until terminated upon 90 days prior notice by either party. PROPERTY LEASES The Company currently leases from BIC approximately 76,700 square feet of office space in St. Petersburg, Florida at a monthly rate of approximately $76,700. The initial term of this lease expires on December 31, 1999. The Company has an option to renew this lease for an additional two-year term at a monthly rate not to exceed approximately $83,200. The Company currently leases from BIG approximately 7,400 square feet of office space in St. Petersburg, Florida at a monthly rate of approximately $7,400. The initial term of this lease also expires on December 31, 1999, subject to the Company's right to renew the lease for an additional two-year period at a monthly rate not to exceed approximately $8,000. Effective January 1, 1998, BIG assigned to the Company a lease of approximately 6,600 square feet of office space in St. Petersburg, Florida. This lease expires on May 31, 1999, subject to the Company's right to renew the lease for four successive one-year terms. The current monthly rental rate under this lease is approximately $2,500. The Company is currently negotiating with BIG to reassign this lease to BIG as of the end of 1998. No assurances can be given that such assignment will occur. EMPLOYEE LEASING AGREEMENT Effective as of January 1, 1998, the Company entered into an Employee Leasing Agreement with BIC (the "Employee Leasing Agreement") pursuant to which the Company continues to lease customer service personnel from BIC. The number of employees to be leased will vary depending on the needs of the Company and the availability of employees from BIC. The Company shall be responsible for all expenses associated with such leased employees, including salaries, bonuses and benefits. The Company may terminate any leased employee for disloyalty, misconduct or other similar cause. The Employee Leasing Agreement is terminable by either the Company or BIC upon 60 days prior notice. SALES AND ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT In May, 1998, the Company entered into a sales and assignment agreement with BIG and certain affiliated companies whereby certain assets were transferred and assigned to the Company, effective retroactively to April, 1998, for use in its business. The assets, including, but not limited to, telephone equipment, computer hardware and software, and service marks were transferred at their net book value as of the date of transfer. The Company paid consideration consisting of $325,075 in cash and entered into two promissory notes amounting to $2,802,175. The notes require monthly installment payments of $10,417 plus accrued interest and mature on April 1, 1999 and December, 2000. In addition, the Company assumed the existing leases with unaffiliated third parties relating to various computer equipment. SOFTWARE LICENSING AGREEMENT Effective January 1, 1998, the Company entered into a non-exclusive license agreement with BIG and BIC pursuant to which the Company licenses its primary operating systems from BIG and BIC in exchange for a nominal fee. The term of the license is perpetual. The license agreement provides that the Company shall be solely responsible for maintaining and upgrading the systems and shall have the authority to sell or license such systems to third parties. 52 58 TAX INDEMNITY AGREEMENT As of July 31, 1998, BIG had sold a sufficient number of shares in the Company such that the Company will no longer file its tax return with Bankers International Financial Corporation ("BIFC") on a consolidated basis. Effective as of July 31, 1998, the Company and BIFC entered into a Tax Indemnity Agreement pursuant to which (i) BIFC agrees to indemnify the Company in the event the Company incurs a tax liability as a result of taxable income of BIFC or one of its subsidiaries, and (ii) the Company agrees to indemnify BIFC in the event BIFC incurs a tax liability as a result of taxable income of the Company or one of its subsidiaries. Each party also agrees to reimburse the other for certain tax credits arising on or before July 31, 1998. Under the Tax Indemnity Agreement, the parties terminated a previous tax allocation agreement which had been in effect since October 1, 1993. GEOTRAC TRANSACTIONS During the year ended June 30, 1996 and on July 30, 1997, SMS Geotrac, Inc. ("SMS Geotrac") made payments of $932,222 and $1,700,000, respectively, to SMS Geotrac's former owner in conjunction with the August 1, 1994 purchase of SMS Geotrac. The amounts were recorded as an increase to goodwill and an additional capital contribution to SMS Geotrac. During the year ended June 30, 1997, SMS Geotrac and its parent agreed to treat all outstanding amounts owed to the parent, $1,611,140, as an additional capital contribution. In addition, the parent contributed $500,000 to SMS Geotrac. During the one month period ended July 31, 1997, SMS Geotrac, Inc. advanced $797,000 to YoSystems, Inc. ("YoSystems"). On July 31, 1997, the Company, through its subsidiary, BHDS, acquired a 49% interest in YoSystems. YoSystems concurrently acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of SMS Geotrac. SMS Geotrac merged into YoSystems, with YoSystems being the surviving entity and changing its name to Geotrac. The Company acquired its 49% interest in YoSystems for $6,750,000 in cash. YoSystems acquired SMS Geotrac for $15,000,000, consisting of $6,750,000 in cash and a term note in the principal amount of $8,250,000. In connection with the Company's purchase of a 49% interest in YoSystems, BHDS issued 675,000 shares of non-cumulative 8% preferred stock to Heritage Hotel Holding Company ("Heritage"), a corporation owned by the half brother of Robert M. Menke, a director of the Company. Heritage funded the preferred stock purchase by entering into a note agreement with a commercial bank for $6,750,000, with the preferred stock serving as collateral. On May 8, 1998, the Company purchased the outstanding preferred stock of BHDS in exchange for a note to Heritage in the principal amount of $6,750,000. The note is payable in its entirety on December 31, 1998 and accrues interest at a rate of 8.5%. After May 8, 1998, the preferred stock of BHDS held by the Company was exchanged for 675,000 shares of 8.5% cumulative preferred stock of BHDS. The shares of non-cumulative 8% preferred stock were then retired. The new preferred stock serves as collateral on the note payable to the commercial bank. In July, 1998, the Company acquired the remaining 51% interest in Old Geotrac pursuant to the merger of Old Geotrac with and into BHDS, with the surviving entity being known as "Geotrac of America, Inc." In connection with this transaction, Geotrac entered into an employment agreement with Daniel J. White pursuant to which Mr. White will serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of Geotrac. See "Geotrac Acquisition" and "Management -- Employment Agreements." In addition, the Company entered into a Corporate Governance Agreement with Mr. White and Geotrac setting forth certain terms and conditions upon which Geotrac will operate following the merger. The Corporate Governance Agreement provides, in part, that, for so long as Mr. White owns stock in the Company or Geotrac, or has an option to purchase stock in Geotrac, (i) the Company will vote all of its shares in Geotrac to fix and maintain the number of directors on the Geotrac Board of Directors at five, (ii) the Company will vote its shares in Geotrac to elect as directors of Geotrac two persons designated by Mr. White, (iii) the termination of Mr. White as an employee of Geotrac will require the vote of four out of five members 53 59 of the Board of Directors, and (iv) certain actions by Geotrac will require the unanimous approval of the Geotrac Board of Directors, including any merger or consolidation, the payment of management or similar fees to the Company or its subsidiaries and affiliates, the sale or issuance of Geotrac stock, and the sale of Geotrac assets outside the ordinary course of business to anyone other than an affiliate of Geotrac. Mr. White also has a right of first refusal to purchase the assets of Geotrac in the event such assets are to be sold. Geotrac currently leases a 12,400 square-foot facility in Norwalk, Ohio from DanYo LLC, a limited liability company wholly owned by Daniel J. White and his spouse. This lease is for a term of five years, expiring on August 31, 1999, and provides for monthly rental payments of approximately $8,717, plus payment of utilities, real estate taxes and assessments, insurance, repairs and similar expenses. MISCELLANEOUS A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Selling Shareholder has agreed to loan $ million to BIG in exchange for a subordinated note. It is anticipated that this loan will be funded by using a portion of the net proceeds to be received by the Selling Shareholder in this offering. BIG has agreed with the Company to use a portion of such loan proceeds to satisfy outstanding accounts and note payable to the Company not later than ten business days following receipt of the loan proceeds. As of June 30, 1998 (on a pro forma basis), BIG's accounts and note payable to the Company totaled approximately $13.2 million. The balance of the loan proceeds will provide BIG with additional capital to repay other outstanding indebtedness and expand its operations. The Company, in turn, has agreed with BIG to use a portion of the funds received from BIG to satisfy accounts, income taxes and notes payable to BIG. As of June 30, 1998 (on a pro forma basis), the Company's accounts, income taxes and notes payable to BIG totaled approximately $20.5 million. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Principal and Selling Shareholders." The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for reviewing all future transactions between the Company and any officer or director of the Company or any entity in which an officer or director has a material interest. Any such transactions must be on terms no less favorable than those that could be obtained on an arms-length basis from independent third parties. DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK GENERAL The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share. As of the date of this Prospectus, there were issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and no shares of Preferred Stock. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders." The following description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles of Incorporation") and Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws"), which are filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. COMMON STOCK The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Cumulative voting in the election of directors is not permitted. Subject to preferences that may be granted to holders of Preferred Stock, holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. See "Dividend Policy." In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and the liquidation preference, if any, which may be granted to the holders of Preferred Stock. Holders of Common Stock have no conversion, preemptive or other rights to subscribe for additional shares or other securities, and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such shares. The issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares offered hereby will be upon payment therefor, fully paid and nonassessable. 54 60 PREFERRED STOCK The Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares constituting any such series and the rights and preferences thereof, including dividend rates, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, voting rights, conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting such series, without any further vote or action by the Company's shareholders. The issuance of Preferred Stock by the Board of Directors could adversely affect the rights of holders of Common Stock. For example, an issuance of Preferred Stock could result in a class of securities outstanding that would have preferences over the Common Stock with respect to dividends and liquidations, and that could (upon conversion or otherwise) enjoy all of the rights appurtenant to Common Stock. CERTAIN STATUTORY AND OTHER PROVISIONS The Florida Business Corporation Act (the "Florida Act"), the Company's Articles of Incorporation and the Company's Bylaws contain provisions that could have an anti-takeover effect. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of the Board and in the policies formulated by the Board and to discourage certain types of transactions described below, which may involve an actual or threatened change of control of the Company. The provisions are designed to encourage any person interested in acquiring the Company to negotiate with and obtain the approval of the Board in connection with the transaction. However, certain of these provisions may discourage a future acquisition of the Company not approved by the Board in which shareholders might receive the maximum value for their shares or which a substantial number and perhaps even a majority of the Company's shareholders believes to be in the best interests of all shareholders. As a result, shareholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have the opportunity to do so. See "Risk Factors -- Anti-Takeover Considerations." Statutory Provisions. The Company is subject to several anti-takeover provisions under Florida law that apply to a public corporation organized under Florida law unless the corporation has elected to opt out of such provisions in its Articles of Incorporation or (depending on the provision in question) its Bylaws. The Company has not elected to opt out of these provisions. The Florida Act contains a provision that prohibits the voting of shares in a publicly held Florida corporation which are acquired in a "control share acquisition" unless the board of directors approves the control share acquisition or the holders of a majority of the corporation's voting shares (exclusive of shares held by officers of the corporation, inside directors or the acquiring party) approve the granting of voting rights as to the shares acquired in the control share acquisition. A control share acquisition is defined as an acquisition that immediately thereafter entitles the acquiring party to vote in the election of directors within each of the following ranges of voting power: (i) one-fifth or more but less than one-third of such voting power, (ii) one third or more but less than a majority of such voting power and (iii) a majority or more of such voting power. This statutory voting restriction is not applicable in certain circumstances set forth in the Florida Act. The Florida Act also contains an "affiliated transaction" provision that prohibits a publicly-held Florida corporation from engaging in a broad range of business combinations or other extraordinary corporate transactions with an "interested shareholder" unless (i) the transaction is approved by a majority of disinterested directors before the person becomes an interested shareholder, (ii) the interested shareholder has owned at least 80% of the Company's outstanding voting shares for at least five years, or (iii) the transaction is approved by the holders of two-thirds of the Company's voting shares other than those owned by the interested shareholder. An interested shareholder is defined as a person who, together with affiliates and associates, beneficially owns (as defined in Section 607.0901(1)(e), Florida Statutes) more than 10% of the Company's outstanding voting shares. Classified Board of Directors. Under the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the Board of Directors of the Company is divided into three classes, with staggered terms of three years each. Each year the term of one class expires. The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that any vacancies on the Board of Directors shall be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even if less 55 61 than a quorum. The Articles of Incorporation of the Company also provide that any director may be removed from office, with or without cause. Special Voting Requirements. The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that all actions taken by shareholders must be taken at an annual or special meeting of the shareholders or by unanimous written consent. The Articles of Incorporation provide that special meetings of shareholders may be called by only a majority of the members of the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board or the holders of not less than 10% of the Company's outstanding voting shares. Under the Company's Bylaws, shareholders will be required to comply with advance notice provisions with respect to any proposal submitted for shareholder vote, including nominations for elections to the Board of Directors. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company contain provisions requiring the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Common Stock to amend certain provisions thereof. Indemnification and Limitation of Liability. The Florida Act authorizes Florida corporations to indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or other entity, against liability incurred in connection with such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action by or on behalf of a corporation, indemnification may not be made if the person seeking indemnification is adjudged liable, unless the court in which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. The indemnification provisions of the Florida Act require indemnification if a director or officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding to which he or she was a party by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation. The indemnification authorized under Florida law is not exclusive and is in addition to any other rights granted to officers and directors under the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the corporation or any agreement between officers and directors and the corporation. A corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or furnish similar protection on behalf of any officer or director against any liability asserted against the officer or director and incurred by the officer or director in such capacity, or arising out of the status, as an officer or director, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the Florida Act. The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide for the indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company to the maximum extent permitted by Florida law and for the advancement of expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding that the director, officer, employee or agent was a party to by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or executive officer of the Company so long as he or she has undertaken to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification. Under the Florida Act, a director is not personally liable for monetary damages to the Company or any other person for acts or omissions in his or her capacity as a director except in certain limited circumstances such as certain violations of criminal law and transactions in which the director derived an improper personal benefit. As a result, shareholders may be unable to recover monetary damages against directors for actions taken by them which constitute negligence or gross negligence or which are in violation of their fiduciary duties, although injunctive or other equitable relief may be available. The foregoing provisions of the Florida Act and the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws could have the effect of preventing or delaying a person from acquiring or seeking to acquire a substantial equity interest in, or control of, the Company. TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock is Firstar Trust Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 56 62 SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Upon the completion of this offering, the Company will have shares of Common Stock outstanding. Of these shares, the shares of Common Stock sold in this offering will be freely tradable by persons other than affiliates of the Company, without restriction under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The remaining shares of Common Stock will be "restricted" securities within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may not be sold in the absence of registration under the Securities Act unless an exemption from registration is available, including the exemptions contained in Rule 144. All of the restricted shares beneficially owned by BIG will be eligible for public sale pursuant to Rule 144 commencing 90 days after the date of this Prospectus, subject to the volume restrictions discussed below. However, BIG has agreed not to sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock for a period of 180 days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Underwriters. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated), including an affiliate of the Company, who has beneficially owned his or her shares for at least one year (including the prior holding period of any prior owner other than an affiliate) is entitled to sell within any three-month period that number of shares which does not exceed the greater of 1% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock, or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding each such sale. Sales under Rule 144 also are subject to certain manner of sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public information about the Company. A person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who is not or has not been deemed an "affiliate" of the Company for at least three months, and who has beneficially owned shares for at least two years (including the holding period of any prior owner other than an affiliate) would be entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144 without regard to the limitations discussed above. Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock. Sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices. 57 63 UNDERWRITING Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the Selling Shareholder have agreed to sell to each of the Underwriters listed below, and the Underwriters, for whom Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Lehman Brothers Inc. and ING Baring Furman Selz LLC are acting as representatives (the "Representatives"), have severally agreed to purchase, the respective number of shares of Common Stock set forth opposite their names below: UNDERWRITERS NUMBER OF SHARES - ------------ ---------------- Raymond James & Associates, Inc............................. Lehman Brothers Inc......................................... ING Baring Furman Selz LLC.................................. -------- Total............................................. ======== Raymond James & Associates, Inc. and Lehman Brothers Inc. are acting as Joint Lead Managers and Joint Lead Bookrunners of this offering. The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the several Underwriters thereunder are subject to approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and to various other conditions. The Underwriters are obligated to purchase all the shares of Common Stock offered hereby, excluding shares covered by the over-allotment option granted to the Underwriters, if any are purchased. The Company and the Selling Shareholder have been advised by the Representatives that the Underwriters propose to offer the Common Stock to the public at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus and to certain dealers at such price, less a concession of not in excess of $ per share, and that the Underwriters and such dealers may re-allow a concession of not in excess of $ per share to other dealers. The public offering price and concessions and re-allowances to dealers may be changed by the Representatives after the initial public offering. The Company and the Selling Shareholder have granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable within 30 days after the date of the initial public offering, to purchase up to an additional shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments, at the same price per share to be paid by the Underwriters for the other shares offered hereby. If the Underwriters purchase any such additional shares pursuant to this option, each of the Underwriters will be committed to purchase such additional shares in approximately the same proportion as set forth in the above table. The Underwriters may purchase such shares only to cover over-allotments, if any, in connection with the offering. This offering of Common Stock is made for delivery when, as and if accepted by the Underwriters and subject to prior sale and to withdrawal, cancellation or modification of this offering without notice. The Underwriters reserve the right to reject an order for the purchase of shares in whole or in part. Until the distribution of Common Stock in this offering is completed, rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission may limit the ability of the Underwriters and certain selling group members to bid for and purchase the Common Stock. As an exception to these rules, the Representatives are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize the price of the Common Stock. Such transactions consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the Common Stock. If the Underwriters create a short position in the Common Stock in connection with this offering, i.e., if they sell more shares of Common Stock than are set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus, the Representatives may reduce the short position by purchasing Common Stock in the open market. The Representatives may also elect to reduce any short position by exercising all or part of the over-allotment option described above. The Representatives may also impose a penalty bid on certain Underwriters and selling group members. This means that if the Representatives purchase shares of Common Stock in the open market to reduce the Underwriters' short position or to stabilize the price of the Common Stock, they may reclaim the amount of the selling concession from the Underwriters and selling group members who sold those shares as part of this offering. In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could 58 64 cause the price of the security to be higher than it might be in the absence of such purchases. The imposition of a penalty bid might also have an effect on the price of a security to the extent that it discouraged resales of any security. Neither the Company, the Selling Shareholder nor any of the Underwriters makes any representations or predictions as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the Common Stock. In addition, neither the Company, the Selling Shareholder nor any of the Underwriters makes any representation that the Representatives will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice. The Company, BIG, the Selling Shareholder and certain officers and directors of the Company have agreed that they will not, without the prior written consent of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., sell, offer to sell, contract to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of Common Stock (other than the shares offered by the Selling Shareholder in this offering), options, rights or warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock, or securities exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock, during the 180-day period commencing on the date of this Prospectus, except that the Company may grant additional options under the Incentive Plan and the Non-Employee Director Plan, provided that without the prior written consent of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., such additional options shall not be exercisable during such period. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale." Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock. The initial public offering price was determined by negotiation among the Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Representatives. The factors considered in determining the initial public offering price include the history of and prospects for the business in which the Company operates, past and present operations, revenues and earnings of the Company and the trend of such earnings, the prospects for such earnings, the general condition of the securities markets at the time of the offering and the demand for similar securities of reasonably comparable companies. The Representatives have informed the Company that the Underwriters do not intend to make sales to any accounts over which they exercise discretionary authority. The Company, BIG, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriters have agreed to indemnify, or to contribute to payments made by, each other against certain civil liabilities, including certain civil liabilities under the Securities Act.

(2) The following pro forma adjustments were made to reflect the results of operations as though Geotrac was purchased in its entirety on January 1, 1997. (a) Reclassify amounts previously charged to the Company related to fixed assets that were owned by affiliated companies and purchased at their net book value by the Company. (b) Reversal of compensation expense reflected in Geotrac's historical financial statements during the six months ended June 30, 1998. This compensation expense arose prior to the closing of Geotrac and is reflected in the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 1997. See Note (3)(b) to the Company's Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income (unaudited) for the year ended December 31, 1997. (c) Reflects amortization of additional goodwill assuming Geotrac was purchased in its entirety on January 1, 1997. Goodwill is being amortized using the straight-line method over a 20 year amortization period. Following is a summary of the pro forma adjustment: Goodwill related to purchase of remaining 51% ($6,492,000 amortized over 20 years) January 1, 1998 through June 30, 1998..................... $162,300 Less: Goodwill previously recorded on the Company's books January 1, 1998 through June 30, 1998.....................

(e-2) Reflect interest, at a rate of 8.5%, on two promissory notes entered into on April 1, 1998 to fund equipment purchases from affiliated companies. (f) Represents the income tax effects on the six months ended June 30, 1998 pro forma adjustments, not including the equity in earnings of $485,034 and non-deductible goodwill amortization of $76,237, at the statutory rate of 40%. (3) The following is provided for informational purposes only: Prior to July 31, 1998, the Company, as a wholly-owned subsidiary, was included in its Parent's consolidated income tax return, subject to a tax sharing and allocation agreement with its affiliates. As the Company's Parent now owns less than 80% of the Company's Common Stock, the Company is a separate tax paying entity. The change in income tax reporting status does not result in a pro forma adjustment herein as the Company's income tax provision has historically been determined on a separate return basis. F-11 77 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Board of Directors of Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company'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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

F-16 82 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. ("IMSG") is a holding company that was incorporated in the State of Florida in December 1996 by its parent, Bankers Insurance Group ("BIG" or the "Parent"), which contributed to IMSG two of its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries, Insurance Management Solutions, Inc. ("IMS") and Bankers Hazard Determination Services, Inc. ("BHDS"), which were previously formed in August 1991 and June 1988, respectively. IMSG, IMS and BHDS are hereinafter collectively known as the "Company". In July 1997, the Company acquired a 49% interest in Geotrac, Inc. and, in July 1998 acquired the remaining 51% interest. On July 31, 1998, BIG sold 4,100,000 shares of the issued and outstanding common shares it held in IMSG to Venture Capital Corporation, a Cayman Islands company. See Note 12 for further discussion. The Company operates in two major business segments: providing outsourcing services to the property and casualty insurance industry with an emphasis on flood insurance; and providing flood zone determinations primarily to insurance companies and financial institutions. The Company's outsourcing services, which are provided by IMS, include policy and claims administration (policy issuance, billing and collection functions, claims adjusting and processing) and information technology services. The Company's flood zone determination services are provided by Geotrac of America, Inc. (formerly BHDS and Geotrac, Inc.). Prior to 1997, the Company's outsourcing services principally related to information technology services provided to BIG and its other affiliates on a cost reimbursement basis. Commencing in 1997, the Company also provided, on a fee basis, policy and claims administration services, previously provided by BIG and its other affiliates, related to flood and homeowners insurance lines accounting for approximately 55% of total outsourcing revenues for 1997, and 53% and 98% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. Starting in 1998, the automobile insurance line has also been added to these services. During 1997, the Company also provided claims administration services to its affiliates on all other insurance lines on a cost reimbursement basis accounting for approximately 29% of total outsourcing revenues. In 1998, the company receives a fee for claims administration on these insurance lines similar to that for flood, homeowners and automobile lines. In addition, in 1998, third-party claims adjustment costs, such as outside appraisers, are recognized by the Company. In 1997, these costs were paid and absorbed by the Company's affiliates. The Company is substantially dependent on the business of its affiliated insurance companies under the common control of BIG as the Company derives a substantial portion of its revenue from outsourcing services provided to these affiliated companies and BIG. See Notes 2 and 12 for further organization and business information. NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The formation of IMSG as described in Note 1, is reflected in the financial statements retroactively on a historical cost basis as if the entities under common control had been consolidated for all years presented. IMSG, IMS and BHDS have historically maintained separate accounting records as their operations have generally been on a stand-alone basis in regards to BIG and its other affiliates. The Company, under a management agreement with BIG, is charged a management fee for common costs that are incurred by its Parent on behalf of all affiliated companies. Management services include human resources, legal, corporate planning and communications, cash management, certain executive management and rent. The basis of allocation for the management services is employee head counts and estimates of time incurred, which management believes to be a reasonable basis of allocation. F-17 83 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) In January 1998, the Board of Directors increased the amount of the Company's authorized shares of Common Stock from 1,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares and changed the Common Stock's par value from $1.00 to $.01 per share. Effective May 8, 1998, the Company declared a stock dividend of 40,000 shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock then outstanding, resulting in an increase in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock from 500 to 20,000,000 shares. This recapitalization has been retroactively reflected in the financial statements. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Prior to July 1998, the Company's investment in Geotrac, Inc. was accounted for using the equity method since the Company owns less than 50% and has a significant but not controlling influence (See Note 3). Use of Estimates The preparation of the 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997, and June 30, 1998. Prior to June 1998, the Company maintained a zero balance account arrangement with its Parent. As a result of this funding arrangement, the Company had a negative cash balance for financial reporting purposes representing checks that have been issued but that have not yet been presented to the bank for payment. Such negative cash balances have been reclassified to accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Accounts Receivable, Trade and Concentration of Credit Risk Accounts receivable, trade represents amounts due from BHDS' customers. BHDS provides flood zone determination services to insurance companies and financial institutions. Credit is granted to customers of BHDS based on management's assessment of their credit worthiness. As the accounts receivable are considered collectible, no allowance for doubtful accounts is deemed necessary in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided for using the straight-line method over the assets' estimated service lives. Accelerated methods are used for tax purposes.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) Deferred Offering Costs The Company incurred accounting, legal, printing and other expenses in connection with its proposed initial public offering of its Common Stock. These offering costs are being deferred and will be charged to additional paid-in capital when the proceeds from the initial public offering are received. At June 30, 1998, $557,240 of deferred offering costs is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. To the extent the Company's initial public offering is not consummated, the deferred offering costs will be charged to expense. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets (including goodwill) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, ("SFAS No. 121"), Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. SFAS No. 121 requires long-lived assets to be reviewed for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment is recognized to the extent the sum of undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset is less than the carrying value. Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue Revenue generated from outsourcing and flood zone determination services are recognized as earned when services are provided. In 1997, the Company's affiliated service arrangements, as they pertain to policy administration, resulted in deferred revenue being recorded as the related fees are billed and payable based on a percentage of the customers' premiums written which is in advance of a portion of the administrative services being performed by the Company. In 1998, the service arrangements were changed so that fees related to policy administration services are billed based on a percentage of written and earned premiums, which generally eliminates the need for any deferral. The transition from the 1997 service arrangements to the 1998 service agreements resulted in the Company reclassifying on January 1, 1998 deferred revenue of $443,704 recorded at December 31, 1997 to due to affiliates. In 1998, the affiliated service agreements as they pertain to claims administration, resulted in deferred revenue being recorded as the related fees are billed and payable based on a percentage of the customers' earned premiums which is in advance of a portion of the total claims expense that will be incurred by the Company. In 1997, deferred revenue related to claims administration was not recorded, as the Company was paid, either on a fee or cost reimbursement basis, as the claims and related expenses were incurred. The Company, in 1998, estimates the deferred revenue amounts based on several factors including actual historical claims expense and related development factors. The transition from the 1997 to the 1998 service agreements resulted in the Company recording, at January 1, 1998, deferred revenue of approximately $2,138,000 along with a due from affiliates for the same amount, representing the Company's estimated future cost of servicing claims associated with premiums earned prior to December 31, 1997. Under the affiliated claims service agreements, the payment of claim costs associated with the litigation of the claims remains the customers' responsibility. In addition, the agreements contain a catastrophe provision under which the Company would be reimbursed for costs associated with independent adjusters and appraisers when indemnity losses from a single event exceed $2,000,000, subject to a cap of 5% of direct incurred losses from that storm. F-19 85 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) In connection with the Company's outsourcing and flood zone determination services, the Company has recorded deferred revenues totaling $2,260,000 at June 30, 1998, of which $2,138,000 represents amounts billed and due from its affiliates. As such, for financial statement reporting purposes, the $2,138,000 amount has been netted against due from affiliates at June 30, 1998. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes on the liability method, as provided by SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company's results of operations are included in the consolidated federal and state income tax returns of its Parent. As provided by SFAS No. 109 and in accordance with the intercompany tax sharing/allocation agreement with its Parent and affiliates, income taxes are determined by the amount that would have been due and payable had the Company filed a separate income tax return. Income taxes payable, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, represents amounts due to the Company's Parent. As of July 31, 1998, BIG had sold a sufficient number of shares in the Company such that the Company will no longer file its tax return with Bankers International Financial Corporation ("BIFC") on a consolidated basis. Effective as of July 31, 1998, the Company and BIFC entered into a Tax Indemnity Agreement pursuant to which (i) BIFC agrees to indemnify the Company in the event the Company incurs a tax liability as a result of taxable income of BIFC or one of its subsidiaries, and (ii) the Company agrees to indemnify BIFC in the event BIFC incurs a tax liability as a result of taxable income of the Company or one of its subsidiaries. Each party also agrees to reimburse the other for certain tax credits arising on or before July 31, 1998. Under the Tax Indemnity Agreement, the parties terminated a previous tax allocation agreement which had been in effect since October 1, 1993. Net Income Per Common Share Net income per common share, which represents both basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") since no dilutive securities were outstanding for all periods presented, is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding. The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator of the basic and dilutive EPS computation: SIX MONTHS ENDED YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, JUNE 30, --------------------------------------- ------------------------- 1995 1996 1997 1997 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- (UNAUDITED) Numerator: Net income............................... $ 253,810 $ 616,964 $ 3,409,655 $ 1,685,718 $ 1,956,656 =========== =========== =========== =========== =========== Denominator: Weighted average number of Common Shares used in basic EPS...................... 20,000,000 20,000,000 20,000,000 20,000,000 20,000,000 Diluted stock options.................... -- -- -- -- -- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Weighted average number of Common Shares and diluted potential Common Stock used in diluted EPS......................... 20,000,000 20,000,000 20,000,000 20,000,000 20,000,000 =========== =========== =========== =========== =========== F-20 86 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, due from affiliates, accounts payable, due to affiliates and debt, approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. The Company considers the fixed and variable rate debt instruments to be representative of current market interest rates and, accordingly, the recorded amounts approximate their present fair market value. New Accounting Pronouncement In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting of Comprehensive Income," ("SFAS 130") which establishes standards of reporting and displaying of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in the financial statements. SFAS 130 requires comprehensive income to be reported with the same prominence as other items in the financial statements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes is required. The adoption of SFAS 130 in 1998 did not have any effect on the consolidated financial statements. Unaudited Financial Statements The unaudited financial statements and the related notes thereto for June 30, 1997 and 1998 include all normal and recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation and are prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statements. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT IN GEOTRAC, INC. On July 31, 1997, the Company, through its subsidiary, BHDS, acquired a 49% interest in YoSystems, Inc. ("YoSystems"). YoSystems concurrently acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of SMS Geotrac, Inc. SMS Geotrac, Inc. merged into YoSystems, with YoSystems becoming the surviving entity, which then changed its name to Geotrac, Inc. The Company acquired its 49% interest in YoSystems for $6,750,000 in cash. YoSystems entered into a term note for $8,750,000 to provide additional funds required to fund the total purchase price of $15,000,000. F-21 87 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC.

Accumulated amortization amounted to $71,718 and $157,781 at December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998, respectively. In connection with the acquisition, the Company and Geotrac, Inc. entered into a Cross-License Agreement in which the flood zone databases of each company were made available to one another in exchange for specified license fees. In addition to the use of each Company's database, Geotrac, Inc. is primarily responsible for the development, modification and maintenance of the respective databases. Total amounts incurred during 1997 and the six months ended June 30, 1998 for maintenance of the databases amounted to $129,056 and $190,091, respectively.

NOTE 9. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Long Term Incentive Plan The Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") has been adopted by the Company's Board of Directors and is expected to be approved by the shareholders of the Company prior to the consummation of the contemplated initial public offering. A total of shares of Common Stock may be issued pursuant to the Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive or nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock. Upon the completion of the contemplated initial public offering, the executive officers of the Company will be granted options to purchase a total of shares of Common Stock at the initial public offering price. All such options expire on the tenth anniversary from the date of grant. Options shall become exercisable 60% after three years, 20% after four years and 20% after five years.

In addition, each non-employee director shall become vested in options for the purchase of 400 shares of Common Stock (200 shares in the event the non-employee director is absent from, arrives late for, or departs early from, such meeting) upon the adjournment of each regularly scheduled quarterly meeting of the Board of Directors (other than following the annual meeting of shareholders), to the extent he or she has been granted options that have not yet vested, and provided that he or she is then a non-employee director of the Company. All options granted will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock as of the date of grant, will become exercisable upon vesting, and will expire on the sixth anniversary of the date of grant. Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan The Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the "Non-Qualified Plan") has been adopted by the Company's Board of Directors and is expected to be approved by the shareholders of the Company prior to the consummation of the contemplated initial public offering. The Non-Qualified Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options to purchase up to shares of Common Stock.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Risks and Uncertainties The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues from outsourcing services provided to its principal shareholder, BIG. The Company has entered into contracts with BIG pursuant to which it will continue to provide administrative services to BIG (See Note 12). Any loss of or material decrease in the business from BIG could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The Company's future financial condition and results of operations will depend to a significant extent upon the commercial success of BIG and its continued willingness to utilize the Company's services. Any significant downturn in the business of BIG or its commitment in utilizing the Company's services could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company's business is dependent upon various factors, such as general economic conditions and weather patterns, that are beyond its control. For example, the demand for flood zone determinations by lenders and their customers is directly related to the affordability of mortgage financing and refinancing. Current interest rates are relatively low and therefore conducive to a higher volume of mortgage lending and flood zone determinations. An increase in interest rates would have a negative impact on mortgage lending and consequently also on the level of flood zone determinations requested. Fluctuations in interest rates will likely produce fluctuations in the Company's earnings and operating results. Likewise, natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes and floods, all of which are unpredictable, directly impact the demand for both the Company's outsourcing and flood zone determination services. Legal Proceedings Bankers Insurance Company ("BIC"), the Company's principal customer and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BIG, is currently subject to an investigation by the Florida Department of Insurance (the "DOI") stemming from BIC's use of a private investigator to gather information on a DOI employee and the private investigator's unauthorized use of illegal wiretaps in connection therewith. In addition, BIC and certain officers and employees of BIC and the Company have been subpoenaed on behalf of the Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") to produce documentation or testify in connection with FEMA's investigation of, among other things, certain cash management practices. The management of BIC and the Company do not believe the outcome of these investigations will have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of BIC or the Company. Since the investigations are in the early stages, it is impossible at this time to predict the ultimate outcome of these investigations. The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. Management cannot predict the outcome of these matters. It is management's belief, after discussion with legal counsel, that the ultimate resolution of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Tax Examination The Company's ultimate parent, Bankers International Financial Corporation, is currently undergoing an income tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service related to the years 1995 and 1996; however, no assessment has been levied. While it is not possible to determine with certainty the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of management, the eventual resolution of the examination will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. F-28 94 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES -- (CONTINUED) Employment Agreements The Company entered into employment agreements with certain members of its executive management team, which will be effective on completion of the contemplated initial public offering. The agreements provide for employment terms of three years and shall continue indefinitely until terminated by either party pursuant to the terms of the agreements. In the event an employment agreement is terminated by the Company without cause, the employee shall be entitled to earned, but unpaid benefits as well as a "Severance Payment" equal to the employee's base salary for a period of twelve months, subject to adjustment as defined. The agreements contain non-compete provisions, which prevent a terminated employee from soliciting customers, prospective customers or employees of the Company. In connection with the acquisition of Geotrac, Inc., the Company entered into an employment agreement with the President and Chief Executive Officer of Geotrac, Inc. This agreement provides for an initial term of four years and shall continue in effect thereafter until terminated by either party upon 90 days prior written notice. The agreement provides for an initial annual base salary of $150,000 subject to annual review by Geotrac, Inc.'s Board of Directors. In the event of Mr. White's death or disability, Geotrac, Inc.'s obligations under the agreement will automatically terminate, except that Mr. White shall be entitled to severance equal to his then current annual base salary. The agreement further provides that, in the event of termination by Geotrac, Inc. without cause (as defined therein) or by Mr. White for good reason (as defined therein), or in the event the agreement is not renewed for any reason other than death, disability or for cause, then Geotrac, Inc. shall pay Mr. White at the rate of his annual base salary then in effect for the longer of (i) the remainder of the term of the agreement and (ii) one year after such termination date, subject to a credit of up to 75% of the base salary paid to Mr. White by his new employer, if any. NOTE 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Service and Administrative Agreements During 1995, 1996 and 1997, the Company provided information technology services to affiliated entities based generally on actual cost incurred (including selling, general and administrative expenses), which amounted to $3,443,628, $4,787,772 and $3,236,255 of the outsourcing revenues for 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively, and $1,649,973 for the six months ended June 30, 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, these charges are included in the fee structure related to the affiliated service agreement discussed below. In 1997, the Company charged a monthly fee for its policy and claims administration services based on certain factors under the terms of the 1997 service agreements with BIG and other affiliated companies. For policy and claims administration, the Company charged a fee based on a percentage of direct written premiums and a percentage of direct paid losses for certain lines of business, as defined, respectively. The fee ranged from 8.5% to 9% for services rendered in connection with policy administration and .5% to 15% for claims administration related to these policies. Also, in 1997 the Company processed claims for BIG and its other affiliates related to those lines of business not covered under the servicing agreement and provided other miscellaneous services on a cost reimbursement basis. Amounts charged related to this claims processing and other miscellaneous services amounted to $9,518,525 for 1997 and $4,757,755 for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Effective January 1, 1998, the Company and BIG, along with its affiliates, entered into a service agreement which replaced the previous arrangement. For policy administration, the Company charges a fee, ranging from 8% to 10% of direct written premiums for certain lines of business, as defined. In 1998, in addition to policy processing services previously provided under the 1997 service agreements, the Company also provides policy processing related to its affiliated companies' automobile lines of business. In addition, F-29 95 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS -- (CONTINUED) claims services that were previously provided on a cost reimbursement basis are included in its 1998 affiliated servicing agreements. For claims administration, the Company charges fees ranging from 7% to 12.50% of direct earned premiums, except for flood related programs which are based on 1% of earned premiums and 1.5% of incurred losses. Also, a service fee of 2% of direct earned premiums is charged related to information technology services. Under these service agreements, the Parent Company accounted for $16,359,821 of total outsourcing revenue in 1997, and $7,624,539 and $17,305,257 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The Company has historically been charged a monthly management fee under an administrative services agreement with BIG for common costs that are incurred by its Parent and allocated to its affiliated companies. These common costs include human resources, legal, corporate planning and communications, cash management, certain executive management and rent. The basis of allocation for the management services is employee head counts and estimates of time incurred, which management believes to be a reasonable basis of allocation. Total management fees in 1995, 1996, 1997 and the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $724,904, $1,053,546, $2,343,866 and $1,171,932, respectively. Effective January 1, 1998, the Company is being charged for these services, exclusive of rent, generally based on agreed-upon amounts totaling $864,406 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The initial term of the agreement expires on December 31, 1998, but may be renewed by the Company, at its sole option, for two successive one-year periods. Thereafter, the agreement may be terminated by either party. Prior to December 31, 1997, the Company was also charged for rental expenses through the management services allocated from its Parent as discussed above. Subsequent to this time, the Company entered into specific lease agreements for its office space. The future minimum lease payments under these non-cancelable operating leases are $1,150,535 and $1,384,180 for the years ending December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. For financial statement purposes, rent expense of $504,611 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 is included in management services from Parent. The Company leases certain employees, from time to time, that have been trained in customer service and other areas of property and casualty insurance from its affiliated companies. The Company has agreed to pay all direct and indirect expenses in connection with these employees. These charges are included in cost of outsourcing services and selling, general and administrative expenses and amounted to $6,635,249 for 1997, and $3,798,482 and $2,553,513 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. Effective January 1, 1998, the Company entered into a perpetual license agreement with BIG and BIC pursuant to which the Company licensed its primary operating systems from BIG and BIC in exchange for a nominal fee. The license agreement provides that the Company shall be solely responsible for maintaining and upgrading the systems and shall have the authority to license such systems to third parties. Flood zone determination services performed for affiliated companies amounted to $239,980, $414,209 and $1,028,358 for 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively, and $436,561 and $547,182 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. Intercompany Accounts The Company's due from affiliates, including the note receivable -- affiliate, generally resulted from the zero balance account arrangement with BIG (See Note 2) whereby the Company's excess cash was swept into BIG's operating cash account. The Company's due to affiliates, including the note payable -- affiliate, generally resulted from the Company's affiliates advancing service fees and paying certain expenses on behalf F-30 96 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS -- (CONTINUED) of the Company. The Company's income tax payable to Parent represents the current income tax liability owed to the Parent under the intercompany tax sharing/allocation agreement. On July 31, 1998, the Parent sold an approximate 20% interest in the Company to Venture Capital Corporation ("VCC"), a Cayman Islands corporation. VCC acquired its interest in the Company directly from the Company's Parent. VCC is wholly owned by a discretionary charitable trust. The sole trustee of this trust is a Cayman Islands bank unaffiliated with BIG, the Company or their respective officers or directors. BIG is indirectly owned by a separate Cayman Islands corporation which is owned by a separate discretionary charitable trust. The sole trustee of this trust is a Cayman Islands corporation unaffiliated with BIG, the Company or their respective officers or directors. The declaration of each trust provides that the same not-for-profit Cayman Islands corporation possesses the discretionary power to (i) direct the trustee to appoint the trust fund to another trust for the benefit of one or more of the beneficiaries of the trust and (ii) remove the trustee and appoint one or more new trustees outside the Cayman Islands. The Board of Directors of this entity includes certain executive officers of BIG and the Company. VCC is selling a portion of its interest in the Company in the offering, and a subsidiary of VCC has agreed to loan approximately $ million to BIG in exchange for a subordinated note. A portion of the funds to be received by BIG will be used to satisfy the due from affiliates and note receivable -- affiliate balances recorded by the Company. With the funds, the Company will repay the entire due to affiliate, income taxes payable to Parent and note payable -- affiliate balances at that time. Certain officers and directors of the Company also serve as officers and directors of BIG. Effective as of the completion of the Company's initial public offering, certain of these officers and directors will resign from their positions with BIG. However, the Company's Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer will continue to serve as Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of BIG, and two other directors of the Company will continue to serve as executive officers and/or directors of BIG. As the interests of the Company and BIG may differ, these individuals may face certain conflicts of interests. In the event that the Company's offering is not completed, the due to affiliates (including income taxes payable to Parent) and due from affiliates, which are without any specific terms and are non-interest bearing, will be satisfied during the ordinary course of business. This note should also be read in conjunction with the other notes to the financial statements for additional related party transactions. NOTE 13. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS The Company's employees participate in its Parent company's 401(k) plan. The Plan covers substantially all employees. Benefits vest based on the number of years of service. To participate in the plan, employees must be at least 21 years old and have completed twelve months of service. The Company, at its discretion, can make matching contributions based upon the participant's deferral depending on the participant's annual salary up to a maximum of 6% of compensation. The Company's expense related to this plan was approximately $70,191, $121,390 and $466,096 in 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively, and $188,827 and $296,305 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. In addition, the Company's employees participate in self-insured medical and dental plans provided by the Parent. The medical program provides for specific excess loss reinsurance for individual claims greater than $60,000 for any one claimant and aggregate claims greater than $1,000,000. The Company accrues the estimated liabilities for the ultimate costs of both reported claims and incurred but not reported claims. F-31 97 INSURANCE MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS GROUP, INC.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Geotrac, Inc. (formerly YoSystems, Inc.) as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the related statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company'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 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 financial position of Geotrac, Inc. as of December 31, 1996 and 1997 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The contribution of shares to these employees and the corresponding expense recognized by the Company, totaling $728,069, has been reflected as deferred compensation (non-recurring item) and additional paid-in capital in the accompanying financial statements. See Note 7. The accompanying notes are an integral part of these statements. F-38 104 GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION Geotrac, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly YoSystems, Inc., is a provider of flood zone determination services for financial services companies and individuals located throughout the United States. On July 31, 1997, the Company acquired the outstanding stock of SMS Geotrac, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Strategic Mortgage Services, Inc. ("SMS"), an unrelated company, for $15,000,000. Prior to the acquisition, the Company had limited activity and was an S corporation for federal income tax purposes. The Company's principal activity prior to July 31, 1997 was to receive contingent earnout payments from the sale of its operating assets during 1994 and to distribute any payments received to its shareholder. Simultaneous with the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, Inc., the Company sold 49% of its outstanding shares to Bankers Hazard Determination Services, Inc. ("BHDS"), a subsidiary of Insurance Management Solutions Group, Inc. ("IMSG"), for $6,750,000. Such proceeds of the stock sale together with the proceeds of $8,250,000 from a bank borrowing were used to acquire SMS Geotrac, Inc. Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company changed its name from YoSystems, Inc. to Geotrac, Inc. As of July 31, 1997, the Company became a C corporation for federal income tax purposes. On May 12, 1998, the Company, its shareholders (including BHDS), IMSG and IMSG's parent, Bankers Insurance Group, Inc., executed a definitive agreement whereby all the shares of common stock held by the Company's president, his wife and by certain employees representing 51% of the outstanding shares, were acquired by IMSG and BHDS for total consideration of $7,994,250 consisting of: Shares of IMSG Common Stock................................. $5,766,181 Promissory note............................................. 1,500,000 Cash........................................................ 728,069 ---------- $7,994,250 ========== During July 1998, the transaction was completed with the Company merging into BHDS, with BHDS as the surviving corporation, which simultaneously changed its name to Geotrac of America, Inc. The cross-license agreement with BHDS (See Note 3) was terminated upon completion of the merger. NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates In preparing the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Concentration of Credit The Company provides flood zone determination services primarily to insurance companies and financial institutions throughout the United States. Credit is extended to customers (primarily financial services F-39 105 GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) companies) based on management's assessment of their credit worthiness. Customer deposits are required in certain instances. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is provided for using the straight line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Capitalized costs include the cost of purchasing maps as well as the direct labor cost of converting the maps to digitized computer files. The Company capitalizes the costs of acquiring and computerizing maps that are used as a basis for making flood zone determinations. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets and intangibles (including goodwill) held whenever adverse events or changes in business climate indicate that the expected undiscounted future cash flows from the related asset may be less than previously anticipated. If the net book value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows of the asset, the carrying amount would be reduced to the present value of its expected future cash flows and an impairment loss would be recognized. Management does not believe that an impairment reserve was required for all periods presented. Goodwill Goodwill of $8,847,119 related to the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, Inc., is being amortized using the straight-line method over twenty years. The amortization period was determined based on various factors including the nature of the product or service provided, the Company's strong market position and historical and projected operating results. Accumulated amortization at December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 was $184,315 and $405,493, respectively. Customer Contracts In connection with the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, Inc., the Company estimated the fair value of its customer contracts and allocated $1,600,000 of the purchase price to such contracts. Customer contracts are being amortized using the straight-line method over eight years. The amortization period was determined based on historical and expected contract duration periods as well as the nature of the product and services provided. Accumulated amortization at December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 was $83,333 and $183,333, respectively. Revenues The Company's flood zone revenues are principally derived from flood zone determination services and life-of-loan monitoring services. Flood zone determinations involve the Company ascertaining and certifying to a property's flood zone classification. Each determination is completed within a short period of time and is performed with a high degree of accuracy. Revenues for these services are recognized upon completion of each flood zone determination. The Company receives an up-front fee to provide life of loan monitoring of flood zone determinations whereby the Company notifies its customers of changes in previously issued flood zone determinations. The Company defers a portion of the fee associated with this future obligation and amortizes these amounts using the straight-line method over the average life of the underlying loan, approximately 7 years. F-40 106 GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) Income Taxes For the year ended December 31, 1996 and through July 31, 1997 the Company was an S Corporation for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, federal income taxes on net income of the Company were payable by the shareholder. Beginning August 1, 1997, the Company accounts for income taxes on the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. At the date of the termination of the S Corporation election, there were no deferred tax assets or liabilities created. Deferred Financing Costs The Company incurred financing costs of approximately $337,000 related to its bank borrowings. Such costs are being amortized using the straight line method (approximates the effective yield method) over the term of the loan (see Note 5). Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments at December 31, 1997, and June 30, 1998, which includes cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt, approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. The Company considers the fixed rate and variable rate financial instruments to be representative of current market interest rates and, accordingly, the recorded amounts approximate their present fair market value. Unaudited Financial Statements The unaudited financial statements and the related notes thereto for June 30, 1998 include all normal and recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation and are prepared on the same basis as audited annual statements. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Segments and Related Information The Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"), which establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. This statement also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and geographic service areas, and major customers. This statement requires the reporting of financial and descriptive information about an enterprise's reportable operating segments. The Company only has one operating segment and one principal product or service (See Note 1). All the Company's operations are located within the United States and no individual customer represents more than 10% of total revenues for all periods presented herein. New Accounting Pronouncement In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting of Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"), which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expense, gains and losses) in a full set of financial statements as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same F-41 107 GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) prominence as other financial statements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is permitted. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes is required. The adoption of SFAS 130 in 1998 did not have any effect on the financial statements. NOTE 3. ACQUISITION OF SMS GEOTRAC, INC. On July 31, 1997 the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of SMS Geotrac, Inc. (Note 1) for a purchase cost of $15,000,000 which was funded as follows: Cash contributed by BHDS.................................... $ 6,750,000 Bank borrowing.............................................. 8,750,000 Excess cash not required for acquisition.................... (500,000) ----------- $15,000,000 =========== The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly the net assets acquired on July 31, 1997 were recorded at their estimated fair value as follows: Current assets.............................................. $ 3,026,152 Property and equipment...................................... 3,547,454 Excess of cost over assets acquired......................... 8,847,119 Customer contracts.......................................... 1,600,000 Other assets................................................ 288,053 Liabilities assumed......................................... (2,308,778) ----------- $15,000,000 =========== In addition, BHDS and the Company entered into a cross licensing agreement whereby the Company is to receive a total of $900,000 for the use of its database of digitized maps, for the period from the date of acquisition through June 2000. Further, BHDS will reimburse the Company for fifty percent of its cost to maintain the database. As of December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998, approximately $250,000 and $345,000, respectively have been recorded under this agreement. The following unaudited proforma consolidated results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 is presented as if the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, Inc. had been made on January 1, 1996.

F-43 109 GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 5. LONG-TERM DEBT In connection with the purchase of SMS Geotrac, Inc., the Company borrowed $8,750,000 from a bank. The note is payable in quarterly installments of $312,500 plus interest, with the final installment due June 30, 2004. Interest is charged, at the Company's option, at 1) the current prime rate; 2) a seven year fixed rate; 3) a certain percentage over the LIBOR rate based upon a formula; or 4) a combination of the above rates. In addition to the quarterly payments, annual prepayments may be required in an amount equal to fifty percent of excess cash flow, as defined in the loan agreement. The agreement contains covenants that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios (e.g., stockholders' equity of at least $6,250,000 through June 30, 1998 increasing by 50% of net income thereafter), limits the dollar value of capital expenditures and restricts the payment of dividends to 50% of excess cash flows (as defined). The note is collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company. The outstanding balance (and prime interest rate) at December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 was $8,437,500 (8.5%) and $7,500,000 (8.5%), respectively. Scheduled maturities of the note payable to bank at December 31, 1997 are as follows: 1998........................................................ $1,250,000 1999........................................................ 1,250,000 2000........................................................ 1,250,000 2001........................................................ 1,250,000 2002........................................................ 1,250,000 Thereafter.................................................. 2,187,500 ---------- $8,437,500 ========== NOTE 6. OTHER INCOME (NON-RECURRING ITEM) During 1996 and on July 30, 1997 the Company received contingent earn-out payments of $932,222 and $1,700,000 (final payment), respectively associated with the sale of its operating assets during 1994. These amounts are classified as other income (non-recurring item). NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating Leases The Company leases office space and equipment under operating leases with unexpired terms ranging from a month-to-month basis to seven years. Rent expense under all operating leases was approximately $186,000 and $221,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the six month period ended June 30, 1998, respectively. The Company is currently leasing one of its operating facilities from its 51 percent shareholder. This lease requires monthly rental payments of $8,717 through August 1999. The future minimum lease payments under these operating lease agreements are as follows: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, - ----------------------- 1998........................................................ 423,792 1999........................................................ 380,650 2000........................................................ 263,368 2001........................................................ 219,331 ---------- 1,287,141 ========== F-44 110 GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES -- (CONTINUED) Capital Leases The Company has capital lease agreements for computer equipment and furniture and fixtures. At December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 property and equipment includes $695,623 of assets recorded under capital leases and accumulated amortization of $57,543 and $127,108, respectively. The future minimum lease payments under these capital lease agreements are as follows: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, - ----------------------- 1998........................................................ $343,762 1999........................................................ 323,763 2000........................................................ 241,835 2001........................................................ 38,099 -------- Total............................................. 947,459 Less amount representing interest........................... 101,151 -------- Present value of minimum lease payments..................... 846,308 Less amount representing current portion.................... 288,952 -------- Long-term portion......................................... $557,356 ======== Deferred Compensation On September 11, 1997 the Company's Board of Directors, recognizing SMS Geotrac, Inc.'s president's nonbinding commitment which originated prior to the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, approved and granted bonuses to certain current and former employees of SMS Geotrac. Such bonuses were principally related to prior services rendered by these employees and resulted in additional compensation of $732,795 which is separately disclosed in the statement of operations as deferred compensation (a non-recurring item) of which approximately $362,000 and 371,000 relates to cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. These amounts are to be paid to the individuals on or before December 31, 1998. Common Stock Awards Prior to and at the time of the acquisition of SMS Geotrac, the president of SMS Geotrac also had a nonbinding commitment to grant to certain former and current employees options to purchase shares of Geotrac, Inc. (formerly YoSystems) common stock held by the president and his wife, for prior employee services rendered. During May 1998, the president and his wife contributed 46.45 shares of their common stock to these individuals, which is recorded as deferred compensation (non-recurring item) totaling $728,069, in the accompanying June 30, 1998 statement of operations. The valuation of the Company's Common Stock used to compute the deferred compensation expense was determined by dividing the purchase price for the remaining 51% of the Company ($7,994,250) by the remaining shares to be purchased (510). Risks and Uncertainties The nature of the Company's business is such that it is dependent upon various factors such as general economic conditions and weather patterns that are beyond its control. The demand for flood zone determinations by lenders and their customers is directly related to the affordability of mortgage financing and refinancing. Current interest rates are relatively low and therefore conducive to a higher volume of mortgage lending and flood zone determinations. An increase in interest rates would have a negative impact on mortgage lending and consequently on the level of flood zone determinations performed. Fluctuations in interest rates will likely produce fluctuations in the Company's operating results. Likewise, natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods, all or which are unpredictable, directly impact the demand for the Company's flood zone determination business.

F-50 116 SMS GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION SMS Geotrac, Inc. (the "Company"), headquartered in Norwalk, Ohio, is principally a provider of flood zone determination services for insurance companies and financial institutions located throughout the United States. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Strategic Mortgage Services, Inc. ("Parent"). NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates In preparing the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Concentration of Credit The Company provides professional flood zone determination services for financial services companies and individuals throughout the United States. Credit is extended to customers (primarily financed services companies) based on management's assessment of their credit worthiness. Customer deposits are required in certain instances. Depreciation and Amortization of Property and Equipment Depreciation and amortization is computed using accelerated methods for financial reporting and federal income tax purposes, over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from 3-5 years for computer equipment and 5-7 years for furniture and fixtures, transportation equipment and maps. Depreciation and amortization for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997 were $594,797 and $1,226,820, respectively and $94,889 for the one month period ended July 31, 1997. Goodwill Goodwill is being amortized using the straight-line method over fifteen years. Amortization for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997 was $93,881 and $104,056, respectively; and $8,671 for the one month period ended July 31, 1997. Revenues The Company's flood zone revenues are principally derived from flood zone determination services and life of loan monitoring services. Flood zone determinations involve the Company ascertaining and certifying to a property's flood zone classification. Each determination is completed within a short period of time and is performed with a high degree of accuracy. Revenues for these services are recognized upon completion of each flood zone determination. The Company receives an up-front fee to provide life of loan monitoring of flood zone determinations whereby the Company notifies its customers of changes in previously issued flood zone determinations. The Company defers a portion of the fee associated with this future obligation and amortizes these amounts using the straight-line method over the average life of the underlying loan, approximately 7 years. F-51 117 SMS GEOTRAC, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for on the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Segments and Related Information The Company adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"), which establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. This statement also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services geographic areas, and major customers. This statement requires the reporting of financial and descriptive information about an enterprise's reportable operating segments. The Company only has one operating segment and one principal product or service (See Note 1). All the Company's operations are located within the United States and no individual customer represents more than 10% of total revenues for all periods presented herein. NOTE 3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating Leases The Company leases office space and equipment under operating leases with unexpired terms ranging from a month to month basis to seven years. Rent expense under all operating leases was approximately $438,000 and $405,000 for the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively and $41,000 for the one month period ended July 31, 1997. The Company leases one of its operating facilities from a Company controlled by the President of the Company. This lease requires monthly rental payments of $8,717 through August 1999. The future minimum lease payments under these operating lease agreements are as follows: YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, - ------------------- 1998........................................................ $ 419,400 1999........................................................ 410,159 2000........................................................ 316,359 2001........................................................ 291,600 2002........................................................ 219,399 Thereafter.................................................. 90,280 ---------- $1,747,197 ========== F-52 118 SMS GEOTRAC, INC.

The demand for flood zone determinations by lenders and their customers is directly related to the affordability of mortgage financing and refinancing. Current interest rates are relatively low and therefore conducive to a higher volume of mortgage lending and flood zone determinations. An increase in interest rates would have a negative impact on mortgage lending and consequently on the level of flood zone determinations performed. Fluctuations in interest rates will likely produce fluctuations in the Company's operating results. Likewise, natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods, all or which are unpredictable, directly impact the demand for the Company's flood zone determination business. NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES The Company's results of operations are included in the consolidated federal income tax return of its Parent. Income taxes are determined and recorded in the amount that would have been due and payable had the Company filed a separate income tax return on an accrual basis. Federal and state income taxes payable is included in the amount due to Parent. The provision for income taxes consists of the following components: ONE MONTH ENDED YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, JULY 31, ----------------------- --------- 1996 1997 1997 ---------- ---------- --------- Federal: Current.......................................... $1,016,500 $ 793,000 $111,000 Deferred.........................................

Matching Company contributions to the plan may be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. No Company contributions were made during the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1997 or for the one month ended July 31, 1997. NOTE 6.

The Florida Business Corporation Act (the "Florida Act") permits a Florida corporation to indemnify a present or former director or officer of the corporation (and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities) for liabilities, including legal expenses, arising by reason of service in such capacity if such person shall have acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and in any criminal proceeding if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. However, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification may be made with respect to any matter as to which such director or officer shall have been adjudged liable, except in certain limited circumstances. The Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify directors and executive officers to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by the Florida Act. In addition, the Company may enter into Indemnification Agreements with its directors and executive officers in which the Registrant has agreed to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent now or hereafter permitted by the Florida Act. The indemnification provided by the Florida Business Corporation Act and the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws is not exclusive of any other rights to which a director or officer may be entitled. The general effect of the foregoing provisions may be to reduce the circumstances which an officer or director may be required to bear the economic burden of the foregoing liabilities and expense. The Company may obtain a liability insurance policy for its directors and officers as permitted by the Florida Act, which policy may extend to, among other things, liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. The Company is a holding company that was incorporated in the State of Florida on December 26, 1996 by its parent, Bankers Insurance Group, Inc. ("BIG").

The issuance of shares of the Company's Common Stock pursuant to this transaction is claimed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. II-1 122 Effective May 8, 1998, the Company declared a stock dividend of 40,000 shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock then outstanding, resulting in an increase in the outstanding capital stock of the Company to 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock. On July 31, 1997, the Company acquired a 49% equity interest in Geotrac, Inc., an Ohio corporation ("Old Geotrac"), for $6.75 million in cash. In July, 1998, the Company acquired the remaining 51% equity interest in Old Geotrac in exchange for (i) shares of Common Stock (assuming an initial public offering price of $ per share), (ii) a promissory note in the principal amount of $1.5 million, and (iii) cash in the amount of $723,069. The transaction was effected pursuant to the merger of Old Geotrac into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with the surviving entity being known as "Geotrac of America, Inc." The issuance of shares of the Company's Common Stock pursuant to this merger is claimed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof. ITEM 16.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective. (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. II-7 128 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant has duly caused this Amended Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of St. Petersburg, and State of Florida, on this 4th day of September, 1998.
