(3)   As a result of the pending sale of Indemnity’s 21.6% ownership interest in EFL to the Exchange, which is scheduled to close by March 31, 2011, all earnings of EFL will accrue to the benefit of the subscribers (policyholders) of the Exchange, or noncontrolling interest, after March 31, 2011.

RECONCILIATION OF OPERATING INCOME TO NET INCOME

Reconciliation of operating income to net income

We believe that investors’ understanding of our performance related to the Indemnity shareholder interest is enhanced by the disclosure of the following non-GAAP financial measure. Our method of calculating this measure may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.

Operating income is net income excluding realized capital gains and losses, impairment losses and related federal income taxes. Our common stock portfolio is measured at fair value. As such, changes in fair value related to common stocks are reported in earnings. These unrealized gains or losses are included in the net realized gains and losses on investments in our Consolidated Statements of Operations that are used to calculate operating income. Equity in earnings or losses of EFL and equity in earnings or losses of limited partnerships are included in the calculation of operating income. Equity in earnings or losses of limited partnerships includes the respective investment’s realized capital gains and losses, as well as unrealized gains and losses, but does not include the realized gain or loss when a limited partnership is sold in the secondary market.

We use operating income to evaluate the results of our operations. It reveals trends in our management services, property and casualty insurance underwriting(1) and investment operations that may be obscured by the net effects of realized capital gains and losses including impairment losses. Realized capital gains and losses, including impairment losses, may vary significantly between periods and are generally driven by business decisions and economic developments such as capital market conditions, the timing of which is unrelated to our management services and property and casualty insurance underwriting processes.(1) We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. We are aware that the price to earnings multiple commonly used by investors as a forward-looking valuation technique uses operating income as the denominator. Operating income should not be considered as a substitute for net income prepared in accordance with U.S.GAAP and does not reflect our overall profitability.
