Part I
------
Item 1. Business
- ------- --------
(a) General Development of Business
----------------------------------
Capitol Transamerica Corporation (CTC) is a holding company with
assets exceeding $283 million. CTC was formed in 1965 and owns 100% of
Capitol Indemnity Corporation (CIC), Capitol Specialty Insurance
Corporation (CSIC), and Capitol Facilities Corporation (CFC). Both CIC
and CSIC are property and casualty insurance companies. CIC writes a
complete portfolio of fidelity and surety bonds and specialty
insurance coverages, while CSIC has been largely inactive due to
market conditions. CIC operates on an admitted basis in thirty-six
states and on an excess/surplus lines basis in one state. CFC is a
non-insurance entity available for other business opportunities.
Some of the specialty property and casualty coverages written are:
Barber & Beauty Shops, Bowling Alleys, Contractors/Manufacturers, Day
Care Centers, Deer Hunters Accident, Detective/Guard Agencies,
Equipment Breakdown, Golf Courses, Nurses Professional,
Resorts/Campgrounds, Restaurants, Special Events, Clubs, Sportsman's
Accident, Tanning/Toning Salons and Taverns.
The full line of surety and fidelity bonds includes: Contractor's
Performance and Payment Bonds, License/Permit Bonds, Fiduciary Bonds,
Judicial Bonds and Commercial Fidelity Bonds.
The results of operations have remained most favorable since 1986 with
substantial increases in premium volume, profitability and
shareholders' investment.
(b) Information about Industry Segments
--------------------------------------
General:
-------
The subsidiaries of the Company, through licensed agents, are involved
only in the business of underwriting property, casualty, fidelity and
surety insurance on selected risks. The Company conducts business with
insurance agents located throughout the United States. As of December
31, 2000 and 1999, no amount due from agents located in any one state
exceeded 15% of total balances; no industry segment other than
insurance amounted to 10% or more of the Company's gross or net income
and no agent had writings in excess of 10% of the Company's gross
premiums in 2000, 1999 or 1998. During 2000, 1999 and 1998, direct
premiums written in Wisconsin accounted for approximately 19%, 19% and
17%, respectively, and direct premiums written in Illinois accounted
for approximately 14%, 14% and 14%, respectively, of the total direct
premiums written by the Company. No other state exceeded 10%.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
------------------------------------
Competitive Conditions:
-----------------------
All business written by the Company is highly competitive in the areas
of price, service and agent relationships. The large number of
insurers transacting business at rates which are independently
regulated by their respective insurance departments compete
aggressively for desirable business. Because of limitations in
capacity and other regulatory restrictions, companies the size of CIC
are sometimes at a disadvantage when competing with larger insurance
companies.
CIC is required by the Insurance Commissioner of the State of
Wisconsin to maintain a minimum compulsory surplus (surplus as regards
policyholders) of 25% of net premiums written during the preceding
twelve months. As of December 31, 2000, CIC reported $107.9 million in
surplus as regards policyholders, approximately $84.6 million in
excess of the required amount. In addition, CIC is required to report
a minimum 60% loss and loss expense ratio for the most current three
years on certain liability lines as well as a minimum 65% ratio on the
workers compensation line. Based upon actual historical experience,
the Company's ratios are substantially less than the requirement and
had the company not included the excess statutory reserves over
statement reserves in reporting to regulatory authorities, surplus
would have been $110.6 million at December 31, 2000.
Importance and Effect of Licenses:
-------------------------------------
Generally speaking, insurance companies must be licensed by the states
in which the insurance is written. Forms and rates for each policy
offered are filed with individual state insurance departments.
Number of Persons Employed:
-----------------------------
Capitol Transamerica Corporation and subsidiaries employ approximately
200 people.

This table does not present accident or policy year development data, which
readers may be more accustomed to analyzing. Conditions and trends that have
affected development of the liability in the past may not necessarily occur in
the future. Accordingly, it may not be appropriate to extrapolate future
redundancies or deficiencies based on this table. There are no specific
provisions for the effects of inflation or other factors which may cause a
future change in claim costs.
The Company withdrew from the reinsurance assumed business in 1976; however, it
remains involved with treaties that cover certain risks which have had
significant development industry-wide over the past several years. Due to the
nature of this discontinued assumed business, ultimate losses may, and often do,
vary from current estimates. See footnote 4(b) of the notes to the consolidated
financial statements.

Item 2. Properties
- -------- ----------
Capitol Transamerica Corporation leases premises in the Pyare Square
building located at 4610 University Avenue, Madison, Wisconsin 53705,
as follows:
Approximately 45,940 square feet occupying all or a portion of
the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, and 9th through 14th floors. The term of
the lease is from June 1, 1999 through August 31, 2002, with two
three year options to renew after that date.
The Company also leases approximately 2,900 square feet of storage
space from the President of the Company in a personally owned
warehouse at terms as favorable as those available from unaffiliated
third parties.
The Company also leases 3,317 square feet of office space in Las
Vegas, Nevada. The term of the lease is from February 1, 1998 to
February 28, 2006.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
- -------- ------------------
Capitol Indemnity Corporation (CIC) is a defendant in certain lawsuits
involving complaints which demand damages and recoveries for claims
and losses allegedly related to risks insured by CIC. In the opinion
of management, such lawsuits are routine in that they result from the
ordinary course of business in the insurance industry. The reserves
for losses and loss adjustment expenses include management's estimates
of the probable ultimate cost of settling all claims involving
lawsuits. Such estimates are continually reviewed and updated. The
reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses at December 31, 2000,
are, in the opinion of management, adequate to absorb claims arising
from those routine legal proceedings presently in process against the
Company.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Shareholders

No matters were submitted to a vote of shareholders during the
Company's fourth fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2000.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
- -------- -------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
-----------------------
OVERVIEW
Capitol Transamerica Corporation (the "Company") is an insurance holding company
operating in 37 states which writes, through its subsidiaries, both
property-casualty and fidelity-surety insurance. The property-casualty segment
accounts for approximately 77% of the business written while the fidelity-surety
segment accounts for approximately
23% of the Company's business.
The underwriting cycles of the property-casualty insurance industry have been
characterized by peak periods of adequate rates, underwriting profits and lower
combined ratios, while the downward side of the cycle is characterized by
inadequate rates, underwriting losses and, as a result, higher combined ratios.
The adequacy of premium rates is affected primarily by the severity and
frequency of claims which, in turn, are affected by natural disasters,
regulatory measures and court decisions which continue to uphold the "deep
pocket" theory in awarding against insurance companies. Unfortunately for the
insurance industry, the trend of increasing price competition has continued as
has the number of significant natural disasters. This combination has resulted
in a considerable reduction in underwriting profitability for the industry as a
whole.
Adequate premium rates continue to be of concern to the Company and the
property-casualty insurance industry as a whole. Management feels strongly that
rate regulators have been slow to adjust rates in response to increased claim
costs from the factors noted above. This, when combined with increased
competition in the Companys' niche market, has presented an unprecedented
challenge to management. The Company has responded to this challenge with
increased marketing efforts as well as the addition of innovative programs and
alliances that should position the Company for continued expansion and
profitability.
OPERATING RESULTS
As mentioned in the Overview, management believes that the
property-casualty insurance industry is in a downward cycle. Underwriting income
decreased to a loss of $2,005,359 this year compared to income of $6,340,680 in
1999 and income of $5,569,908 in 1998. The 2000 decrease in underwriting income
is due to larger than expected losses on a few specific claims as well as a
$7,000,000 reserve strengthening for the increased premium volume. Had these
items not occurred, underwriting income would have been approximately
$13,000,000. Management is confident that the increased emphasis on prudent
underwriting standards as well as aggressive marketing will assure a
continuation of the Company's history of substantial underwriting profits and
increasing shareholder value.
Gross premiums written during 2000 were $102,110,215, compared with $86,002,801
in 1999 and $87,929,152 in 1998. The premium growth in 2000 is due to the
Company's concerted efforts to profitably grow its business as well as from rate
increases. Management continually monitors the Company's expansion efforts to
ensure that the Company is growing profitably.
Premiums earned are recognized as net revenues after reduction for reinsurance
ceded and after establishment of the provision for the pro rata unearned portion
of premiums written. Net premiums earned in 2000 totaled $88,184,842 compared
with $82,841,104 and $88,629,476 in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The net
unearned premium reserve was $45,587,586, $39,454,257, and $41,541,432 at each
year end.

The Company's underwriting results can be measured by reference to the combined
loss and expense ratios. The following table includes the operating results of
the Company's two subsidiary insurance companies on a statutory basis. Losses
and loss adjustment expenses are stated as a ratio of net premiums earned, while
underwriting expenses are stated as a ratio of net premiums written. The
combined ratios were as follows:
Insurance Operating Ratios (Statutory Basis): 2000 1999 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses 65.4% 54.9% 59.4%
Underwriting Expenses 35.1% 37.0% 35.6%
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
Combined Ratios 100.5% 91.9% 95.0%
===================================================================
10
The Companys' combined ratio continues to compare very favorably to the industry
average, as indicated by the following chart:
Combined Ratio 2000 1999 1998
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Company 100.5% 91.9% 95.0%
Industry Average * 109.3% 110.2% 105.9%
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The industry number for 2000 is the ratio for commercial carriers at
September 30, 2000.
During the year, the Company continued the program of purchasing treasury stock
for contingent commission payments. Under this program, the Company distributes
shares of stock as additional compensation to agents based on achievement of
premium growth and loss ratio targets for the agent's business in the prior
year.
REINSURANCE
The Company follows the customary practice of reinsuring with other companies,
i.e., ceding a portion of its exposure on the policies it has written. This
program of reinsurance permits the Company greater diversification of business
and the ability to write larger policies while limiting the extent of its
maximum net loss. It provides protection for the Company against unusually
serious occurrences in which a number of claims could produce a large aggregate
loss. Management continually monitors the Company's reinsurance program to
obtain protection that should be adequate to ensure the availability of funds
for losses while maintaining future growth.
NET INVESTMENT INCOME AND REALIZED GAINS
The Company's fixed maturities and equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The unrealized gains and
losses, net of tax, are reported as "Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
(Loss)" in the equity portion of the balance sheet.
Interest and Dividend Income: Interest on fixed maturities is recorded as income
when earned and is adjusted for any amortization of purchase premium or
accretion of discount. Dividends on equity securities are recorded as income on
ex-dividend dates.
Investments: 2000 1999 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Invested Assets 232,367,776 $218,085,184 $238,140,592

Realized Gains 11,805,350 8,184,101 13,198,139
Change in Unrealized Gains 4,239,902 $(21,981,943) $(14,657,027)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The net unrealized gain of $4,239,902 for 2000 was comprised of a $1,482,391
unrealized gain on fixed maturities and a $2,757,511 unrealized gain on the
Company's equity portfolio. Management has begun to gradually increase its
tax-free bond holdings and de-emphasize the equity portfolio, but is optimistic
that the recent downturn in the value of its equity investments is temporary and
that the current market conditions provide an even greater opportunity to invest
and build shareholder value over the long term. This appears to be coming to
fruition, as evidenced by the current year's increase in unrealized gains.
Net investment income in 2000 amounted to $9,163,062 compared with $9,136,244
and $9,119,936 in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company holds a large
percentage of equity investments, which results in a comparatively lower rate of
return on invested assets.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense is based on income reported for financial statement purposes
and tax laws and rates in effect for the years presented. Deferred federal
income taxes arise from timing differences between the recognition of income
determined for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes. Such timing
differences are related principally to the deferral of policy acquisition costs,
the recognition of unearned premiums and discounting of claims reserves for tax
purposes. Deferred taxes are also provided on unrealized gains and losses.
LOSS RESERVES
Reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses reflect the Company's best
estimate of the liability for the ultimate cost of reported claims and incurred
but not reported (IBNR) claims at the end of each period. The estimates are
based on past claim experience and consider current claim trends as well as
social and economic conditions. The Company's reserves for losses and loss
adjustment expenses were $77,980,973 as of December 31, 2000, compared with
$77,256,192 as of December 31, 1999. Management continues to closely monitor the
reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses to assure adequate recognition
of the ultimate liability for claims and claim expenses.
11
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity refers to the Company's ability to meet obligations as they become
due. The obligations and cash outflow of the Company include claim settlements,
acquisition and administrative expenses, investment purchases and dividends to
shareholders. In addition to satisfying obligations and cash outflow through
premium collections, there is cash inflow obtained from interest and dividend
income, maturities and sales of investments. Because cash inflow from premiums
is received in advance of cash outflow required to settle claims, the Company
accumulates funds which it invests pending liquidity requirements. Therefore,
investments represent the majority (82.0% in 2000, 84.7% in 1999 and 85.9% in
1998) of the Company's assets. Cash outflow can be unpredictable for two
reasons: first, a large portion of liabilities representing loss reserves have
uncertainty regarding settlement dates; and second, there is potential for
losses occurring either individually or in the aggregate. As a result, the
Company maintains adequate short-term investment programs necessary to ensure
the availability of funds. The investment program is structured so that a forced
sale liquidation of fixed maturities should not be necessary during the ordinary
course of business. The Company has no material capital expenditure commitments.
MARKET RISK
Market risk is defined as exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates,
foreign currency exchange rates, and commodity or other price changes. The
Company does not invest in derivatives or similar financial instruments, which
are highly sensitive to market risk and which are the main focus of the new
requirements. However, the requirements are broad enough in scope to encompass
the potential impact of interest rate fluctuations on the Company's fixed income
portfolio, as well as the potential impact of a severe drop in the stock market
on the Company's equity investments.
The following table shows the interest rate sensitivity of the Company's fixed
income investments (bonds and preferred stock) by presenting the projected
impact of a parallel rise or decline in interest rates of 100 and 200 basis
points. The interest rate fluctuation is assumed to occur on January 1, 2001 and
remain in effect for the life of the fixed income portfolio.
Basis Point (Decrease) Increase

Portfolio Characteristics (200) (100) Market Rate 100 200

Market Value ($000's) $105,278 $101,203 $ 96,358 $90,834 $85,231

Effective Duration (years) 3.9 4.2 4.5 4.8 5.0
The valuation of the Company's common stock portfolio is subject to equity price
risk. If market prices were to decrease 10%, the fair value of the common stock
portfolio would decrease by an estimated $9.0 million, from $119.4 million to
$110.4 million.
The Company's investment portfolio is actively managed to minimize downward
price risk.
YEAR 2000
In prior years, the Company discussed the nature and progress of its plans to
become year 2000 ready. In 1999 the Company completed its remediation and
testing of systems. As a result of the planning and implementation efforts, the
Company experienced no significant disruptions in mission critical information
technology and non-information technology systems and believes those systems
successfully responded to the year 2000 date change.
The Company expensed approximately $90,000 during 1999 in connection with
remediating its systems. The Company is not aware of any material problems
resulting from year 2000 issues, either with our products, our internal systems
or the products and services of third parties. The Company will continue to
monitor its mission critical computer applications and those of its agents and
vendors throughout the year 2000 to ensure that any latent year 2000 matters
that may arise are addressed promptly.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL REPORTING
To The Shareholders and Board of Directors of Capitol Transamerica Corporation:
The Company has prepared the consolidated financial statements, related notes,
and other financial data appearing in this Annual Report. The statements were
developed using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
and policies considered appropriate in the circumstances. They reflect, where
applicable, management's best estimates and judgments. The financial data also
includes disclosures and explanations that are relevant to an understanding of
the financial affairs of the Company. To meet management's responsibility for
financial reporting, internal control systems and procedures are designed to
provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the financial records and
compliance with corporate policy throughout the organization.
Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors, have audited the financial statements.
To express an opinion thereon, they review and evaluate the Company's internal
accounting controls and conduct such tests of the accounting records and other
auditing procedures as they deem necessary. The Board of Directors oversees the
Company's financial reporting through its Audit Committee, which regularly meets
with the independent auditors, both with and without management present, to
review accounting, auditing and financial reporting matters. A policy of
business ethics is communicated annually to the Company's directors, officers
and responsible employees. The Company monitors compliance with the policy to
help assure that operations are conducted in a responsible and professional
manner with a commitment to the highest standard of business conduct.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Capitol Transamerica Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Capitol
Transamerica Corporation (the "Company") as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' investment and
comprehensive income, and cash flows for the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2000. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules
listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedules are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. 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 Capitol
Transamerica Corporation at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects
the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
----------------------------------------------
Capitol Transamerica Corporation (the "Company") is an insurance
holding company, which writes, through its subsidiaries, commercial
insurance coverages in 37 states. The property-casualty insurance
coverages represent approximately 77% of the Company's premiums
written while fidelity-surety coverages represent approximately 23% of
the Company's premiums written. The Company's products are marketed
through independent agents located throughout the United States.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
("GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements of insurance
companies requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
(a) Principles of Consolidation
-----------------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Capitol Indemnity
Corporation ("CIC"), Capitol Specialty Insurance Corporation ("CSIC")
and Capitol Facilities Corporation ("CFC"). All significant
inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
(b) Investments
-----------
The Company classifies all of its fixed maturities and equity
securities as available-for-sale. Accordingly, investments in fixed
maturities and equity securities are reported at fair value, with
unrealized gains and losses reported in a separate component of
shareholders' investment, net of tax effect. The cost of fixed
maturities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts to maturity. Fixed maturities and equity securities deemed
to have declines in value that are other than temporary are written
down through the statement of income to carrying values equal to their
estimated fair values.
Investment real estate is carried at cost net of accumulated
depreciation of $1,595,693 and $1,173,643 as of December 31, 2000 and
December 31, 1999, respectively. The real estate is depreciated over
the estimated useful life of the asset.
Cost of investments sold is determined under the specific
identification method.
(c) Premiums
--------
Premiums are recognized as revenue on a pro-rata basis over the term
of the contracts. Approximately 18.5% and 13.9% of the total premiums
written are on risks located in Wisconsin and Illinois, respectively.
No other state exceeds 10%.
(d) Loss and Loss Adjustment Expenses
-------------------------------------
Losses and loss adjustment expenses less related reinsurance and
subrogation recoverable, are provided for as claims are incurred. The
reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses include: (1) the
accumulation of individual estimates for claims reported on direct
business prior to the close of the accounting period; (2) estimates
received from other insurers with respect to reinsurance assumed; (3)
estimates for incurred but not reported claims based on past
experience modified for current trends; and (4) estimates of expenses
for investigating and settling claims based on past experience. The
liabilities recorded are based on estimates resulting from the
continuing review process, and differences between estimates and
ultimate payments are reflected in expense for the period in which the
estimates are changed.
24
(e) Deferred Insurance Acquisition Costs
---------------------------------------
Deferred insurance acquisition costs that vary with, and are directly
related to, the production of premiums (principally commissions,
premium taxes, compensation and certain underwriting expenses) are
deferred. Deferred insurance acquisition costs are amortized to
expense as the related premiums are earned.
(f) Income Taxes
-------------
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial statement purposes and the amounts used for income tax
reporting.
(g) Income Per Share
------------------
Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted-average number of shares of stock outstanding during the
year. Diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by
the weighted- average number of shares of common stock and common
stock equivalents from options outstanding. The following table sets
forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

Basic EPS $ 1.30 $ 1.49 $ 1.73
Diluted EPS $ 1.30 $ 1.48 $ 1.72
(h) Comprehensive Income (Loss)
-----------------------------
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as net income plus or minus
other comprehensive income (loss), which for the Company, under
existing accounting standards, consists of unrealized gains and
losses, net of income tax effects, on certain investments in debt and
equity securities. Comprehensive income (loss) is reported by the
Company in the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders'
investment and comprehensive income (loss).
(i) Reclassifications
-----------------
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1999 financial
statements to conform with the 2000 presentation.

(f) The Company had investments in state, municipal and political
subdivision bonds with amortized costs of $84,236,162 and $78,855,846
at December 31, 2000 and 1999 respectively. Approximately 93% of these
bonds were special assessment revenue bonds and approximately 7% of
these bonds were state and political subdivision obligations at
December 31, 2000 and 1999. The Company monitors its exposure by
investing its funds in accordance with guidelines set by the Company's
investment committee. At December 31, 2000, approximately 40% of the

===================================================================================================

The Company continually reviews its reserves for losses and loss
adjustment expenses and the related reinsurance recoverables. As
explained in Note (1)(d), differences between estimates and ultimate
payments are reflected in expense for the period in which the
estimates are changed. As a result of the variability in these
estimates, reserves have differed from actual experience during 2000,
1999 and 1998. The actuarial estimates are based on past claim
experience and consider current claim trends and premium volume as
well as social and economic conditions.
While the Company has recorded its best estimate of its reserves for
losses and loss adjustment expenses, it is reasonably possible these
estimates, net of estimated reinsurance recoverables, may change in
the future. See Note 4(b) for a discussion of discontinued assumed
reinsurance.
(4) Reinsurance
-----------
(a) Ceded
-----
From 1996 through 2000, the Company reinsured losses in excess of
$1,000,000 with various other companies through reinsurance ceded
contracts. These arrangements provide for greater diversification of
business, allow the Company to control exposure to potential losses
arising from large risks, and provide additional capacity for growth.
Amounts recoverable fromreinsurers are estimated in a manner
consistent with the claim liability associated with the reinsured
policies.
Reinsurance ceded contracts do not relieve the Company from its
obligations to policyholders. The Company remains liable to its
policyholders for the portion reinsured to the extent that any
reinsurer does not meet the obligations assumed under the reinsurance
agreements. To minimize its exposure to losses from reinsurer
insolvencies, the Company continually evaluates the financial
condition of its reinsurers.
(b) Assumed - Discontinued
------------------------
CIC was involved in providing reinsurance coverage by assuming a
portion of risks underwritten by other insurance companies and risk
pools. Although CIC withdrew from this reinsurance business in 1976,
liability remains for losses on policies written during the period in
which it participated as a reinsurer. The Company is involved with
treaties that cover certain risks which have had significant
development industry-wide over the past several years. The
discontinued reinsurance assumed loss reserves are based on current
information available from the ceding companies and are continually
reviewed for accuracy and reasonableness.
Management believes that the reserves of $7,344,795 at December 31,
2000 are adequate, but recognizes the uncertainty industry-wide
concerning these exposures. The Company has provided a letter of
credit relating to reinsurance assumed of $130,000 at both December
31, 2000 and 1999.
(c) Assumed - Active
------------------
CIC participates in reinsurance programs in the accident and health
and commercial multiple peril lines of business. The exposure on this
business is minimal.
Net written and earned premiums and losses and loss adjustment
expenses included in this reinsurance activity are as follows:

(6) Common Stock Options
----------------------
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and
related Interpretations in accounting for its stock options. Under APB
25, since the exercise price of the Company's stock options equals the
market price of the underlying stock at the date of the grant, no
compensation expense is recognized. The Company did recognize $25,476
in compensation expense during 2000 under FASB Interpretation 44
effective July 1, 2000 for APB 25 related to options which were
repriced to the stockmarket value in 1999.
Had the Company elected to follow the fair value method under SFAS 123
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", net income and earnings per
share would not be materially different for the years 2000, 1999, and
1998. Pro forma disclosure is required and has been determined as if
the Company had accounted for its stock options under this method.
The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant
using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions for 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively:
risk-free interest rates of 6.4%, 6.1%, and 4.4%; dividend yields of
2.4%, 2.0%, and 1.4%; volatility factors of the expected market price
of the Company's common stock of .394, .394 and .345; and a
weighted-average expected life of the options of two and one-half
years. The weighted-average fair value of options granted for the
years 2000, 1999, and 1998 was $3.03, $2.29, and $3.92, respectively.
The estimated fair value is amortized to expense over the options'
vesting period.
The Company's pro forma information follows:
2000 1999 1998
----------- ----------- -----------
Pro forma net income $14,333,943 $16,538,296 $19,156,540
Pro forma earnings per share:
Basic $ 1.30 $ 1.47 $ 1.71
Diluted $ 1.30 $ 1.46 $ 1.70
The Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan has authorized the grant of
options for up to 1,072,500 shares of the Company's common stock. All
options granted have a five year term and become fully vested at the
end of four years. Stock options available to be granted in the future
equal 721,011 shares at December 31, 2000.
A summary of the Company's stock option activity, and related
information for the years ended December 31 follows:

(7) Statutory Reporting
--------------------
(a) The financial statements of the insurance subsidiaries have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States, which differ in certain respects from accounting
practices prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities
(statutory basis). The statutory capital and surplus, and net income
of the insurance subsidiaries as reported to state regulatory
authorities, were as follows:
Policyholders' Surplus as of December 31,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2000 1999 1998
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Capitol Indemnity Corporation $107,917,384 $91,570,236 $102,902,836

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total $13,235,724 $16,995,155 $19,530,258
================================================================================
(b) CIC is required by the Insurance Commissioner of the State of
Wisconsin to maintain a minimum compulsory surplus (surplus as regards
policyholders) of 25% of net premiums written during the preceding
twelve months. As of December 31, 2000, the amount of compulsory
surplus required to be maintained by CIC was $23,350,674.
(c) In accordance with state insurance regulations, the insurance
subsidiaries can distribute dividends to the Company of the lesser of
their net income or 10% of their surplus without regulatory approval.
(d) The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) revised the
Accounting and Procedures Manual in a process referred to as
Codification, with the revised manual becoming effective January 1,
2001. The revised manual has changed, to some extent, prescribed
statutory accounting practices and will resultin changes to the
accounting practices CIC and CSIC use to prepare their statutory-basis
financial statements. Management believes the impact of these changes
to CIC's and CSIC's statutory-basis capital and surplus as of January
1, 2001 will be insignificant.
(8) Contingent Liabilities
-----------------------
CIC is a defendant in certain lawsuits involving complaints which demand
damages and recoveries for claims and losses allegedly related to risks
insured by CIC. In the opinion of management, such lawsuits are routine in
that they result from the ordinary course of business in the insurance
industry. The reserve for losses and loss adjustment expenses include
management's estimates of the probable ultimate cost of settling all losses
involving lawsuits. See Notes (1)(d), (3) and (4).
(9) Employee Benefit Plans
------------------------
The Company has a defined contribution benefit plan (the Plan) in which all
qualified employees are eligible to participate. The Plan incorporates a
contributory feature under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code
allowing employees to defer portions of their income through contributions
to the Plan. The Company's annual contribution to the Plan is 150% of the
first $1,500 of each participant's contributions during the plan year. The
Company made contributions of $250,637, $242,511 and $214,839 in 2000, 1999
and 1998, respectively.
The Company also has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan in which all
qualified employees are eligible to participate. The plan provides for
discretionary employer contributions of shares of Company stock or cash to
purchase shares of Company stock. The Company made contributions of
$301,000, $179,000 and $100,000 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

(13) Industry Segment Disclosures
------------------------------
The Company has three business segments, which are segregated based on the
types of products and services provided. The segments are 1) property and
casualty, 2) fidelity and surety, and 3) discontinued reinsurance assumed
operations. These segments constitute 100% of the operations of the
Company.
The property and casualty segment provides specialty commercial coverages
for beauty and barber shops, bowling alleys, contractors/manufacturers, day
care centers, restaurants, detective/guard agencies, golf courses and
taverns. This segment also provides nurses professional, deerhunters and
sportsmen's accident, and special event coverages. The fidelity and surety
segment offers a full range of surety and fidelity bonds, including
contractor's payment and performance bonds, license/permit bonds, fiduciary
and judicial bonds, as well as commercial fidelity bonds. The reinsurance
assumed segment was discontinued in 1976, but, due to the nature of the
coverages, the Company continues to experience loss activity related to
this business. The Company maintains and monitors its segment information
