DELIVERING SHAREHOLDER VALUE



Non-GAAP Measure
                                is a non-GAAP measure, which is computed as the difference between
the GAAP combined ratio, the effect of catastrophes (excluding development of prior year
catastrophes) on the combined ratio and the effect of prior year reserve development (including
development on prior year catastrophes) on the combined ratio. The most directly comparable
GAAP measure is the combined ratio. We believe the underlying combined ratio is useful to
investors and is used by management to reveal the trends in our Property and Casualty business
that may be obscured by catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development. These
catastrophe losses cause our loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their
incidence of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio.
Prior year reserve developments are caused by unexpected loss development on historical
reserves. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the
aggregate when reviewing our underwriting performance. The underlying combined ratio should
not be considered a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall underwriting
profitability of our business. 
As shown on the bottom of Slide 21, to reconcile the Underlying Combined Ratios to the GAAP
combined ratios: if the Cats \ Loss Development ratio is positive, subtract it from the Underlying
Combined Ratio; if the Cats \ Loss Development ratio is negative (in parentheses), add it to the
Underlying Combined Ratio.
