AddendumAddendumHeadline Issues Facing the IndustryHeadline Issues Facing the Industry

Pressure on commission income as auto insurance premiums decline

Increased advertising by direct writers moving more policy sales to the Internet and toll - free numbers i.e. GEICO, Progressive Direct, Esurance, etc.

Increasing competition• Traditional companies like Hartford getting increasingly aggressive• A rush of small-cap insurers raising new equity capital

Ongoing industry investigation by NY and other states Attorneys General • Elimination of highly profitable contingent commissions• Increasing regulation = greater costs for all insurance companies may lead to

pressure on producers compensation

Escalating costs relating to Sarbanes-Oxley although Sec 404 compliance has been delayed until at least 2007
