       NOTES  TO  CONSOLIDATED  SUMMARY  FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
                       ($ in Millions, Except Share Data)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation:

  The accompanying consolidated summary financial statements have been prepared
  in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as described in
  the Corporation's latest annual report to shareholders or as disclosed herein.
  The financial accounting and reporting process relies on estimates and on the
  exercise of judgement, but in the opinion of management all adjustments,
  consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to a fair presentation of
  the accompanying statements have been reflected therein. Realized gains or
  losses on dispositions of investment securities have been reflected in the
  operating results for each period presented.


2.Common Share Data:

  Earnings per share have been calculated on the basis of average common and
  common equivalent shares outstanding for the quarters and six months ended
  June 30, 1994 and 1993. Retroactive adjustment has been made for all stock
  dividends and splits declared through June 30, 1994. Primary earnings per
  share calculations give effect to the deduction of dividend requirements
  applicable to preferred stock of $1.2 and $2.5 for the quarter and six months
  ended June 30, 1994, respectively and $1.2 and $2.7 for the quarter and six
  months ended June 30, 1993, respectively. Fully diluted earnings per share are
  similarly calculated, after taking into account substantially all convertible
  securities and options includable for each period.

  Common shares outstanding were 51,880,529 at June 30, 1994 after elimination
  of 4,439,267 shares issued and outstanding, which are held by a consolidated
  affiliate. These shares are classified as treasury stock for financial
  accounting purposes only.


3.Unrealized Appreciation of Investments:

  Cumulative net unrealized losses on investments (fixed maturity securities
  available for sale and equity securities) debited to a separate account in
  common shareholders' equity amounted to $7.8 at June 30, 1994. Unrealized
  depreciation of investments, before applicable income tax credits of $4.3, at
  June 30, 1994 included gross unrealized gains and (losses) of $10.4 and
  $(22.5), respectively.

  For the six months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993, net unrealized appreciation
  (depreciation) of investments, net of deferred income taxes, amounted to
  $(33.1) and $21.9, respectively.

       MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                     Six Months Ended June 30, 1994 and 1993
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                    OVERVIEW

This analysis pertains to the consolidated accounts of Old Republic
International Corporation. The Company conducts its business through four major
segments, namely its General (property and liability coverages), Title, Mortgage
Guaranty, and Life insurance groups.


                               FINANCIAL POSITION

Old Republic's financial position at June 30, 1994 reflected increases in assets
of 1.4%, liabilities of 1.3%, and common shareholders' equity of 1.5% when
compared to the immediately preceding year-end. Cash and invested assets
represented 60.8% and 61.0% of consolidated assets as of June 30, 1994 and
December 31, 1993, respectively. Relatively high short-term maturity investment
positions continued to be maintained as of June 30, 1994 to provide necessary
liquidity for specific operating needs and to enhance flexibility in investment
strategy. Changes in short-term investments reflect a large variety of seasonal
and intermediate-term factors including seasonal operating cash needs,
investment strategy, and expectations as to trends in interest yields.
Accordingly, the future level of short-term investments will vary and respond to
the dynamics of these factors and may, as a result, increase or decrease from
current levels. During the first six months of 1994, the Corporation committed
substantially all investable funds in short to intermediate-term fixed maturity
securities. Old Republic continues to adhere to its long-term policy of
investing primarily in investment grade, marketable securities; the Corporation
has not directed its investable funds to so-called "junk bonds." During the
first six months of 1994, Old Republic increased its commitment to common stock
investments which reflected growth of 13.8% vis-a-vis the related invested
balance at year-end 1993. As of June 30, 1994, the carrying value of fixed
maturity securities in default as to principal or interest was immaterial in
relation to consolidated assets or shareholders' equity.

Consolidated operations produced positive cash flows in the first half of 1994.
The parent holding company has met its liquidity and capital needs principally
through dividends paid by its subsidiaries. The insurance subsidiaries' ability
to pay cash dividends to the parent company is generally restricted by law or
subject to approval of the insurance regulatory authorities of the states in
which they are domiciled. Additionally, the terms of guarantees by the Company
of bank loans to the trustee of the Company's Employees Savings and Stock
Ownership Plan require the Company to maintain a minimum consolidated tangible
net worth and restrict the amount of debt the Company may incur, both of which
covenants are being met.

Old Republic's capitalization of $1.6 billion at June 30, 1994 consisted of debt
and debt equivalents of $292.3 million, redeemable convertible preferred stock
of $17.3 million (excluding $13.8 million of such stock classified as a debt
equivalent), convertible preferred stock of $3.7 million, cumulative preferred
stock of $57.4 million, and common shareholders' equity of $1.27 billion. The
rise in the common shareholders' equity account during the six months ended June
30, 1994 reflects primarily the retention of earnings in excess of dividends
declared on outstanding preferred and common shares and the net unrealized
depreciation of securities. During the second quarter of 1994, the Corporation
acquired $.8 million of common stock and $13 thousand of cumulative preferred
stock.                                                                          



                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues:
Net premiums and fees earned in the first half of 1994 amounted to $738.9
million and were 9.5% above the amount reported for the first half of 1993. For
the second quarter of 1994, net premiums and fees earned amounted to $363.6
million and were 6.9% above the amount reported for the second quarter of 1993. 
For the second quarter of 1994, the Company's General Insurance Group posted an
increase in premium revenues due to varying levels of growth in certain parts of
the Company's business, but principally among liability coverages. Title Group
premium and fee revenues declined in the second quarter of 1994 when compared to
the immediately preceding quarter and second quarter of 1993; a rise in mortgage
rates, along with a much lower level of refinancing activity, contributed to a
decline in housing sales and resales. Growth in the Mortgage Guaranty Group's
premium production was affected adversely by the factors cited for title
insurance, but offset positively by continued geographic expansion and
increasing renewal premiums.

The General Insurance Group's net premiums earned increased 6.6% to $441.1
million in the first half of 1994.  The Title Insurance Group reported premiums
and fees in the first half of $214.8 million, up from $203.1 million in the
year-ago period.  The Mortgage Guaranty Group continued to experience double-
digit growth in production and reported net premiums earned of $63.4 million, an

                                        8

increase of 47.4%. For the year's second quarter, premium and fees grew
(declined) by 11.9% for general insurance, (11.1%) for title insurance and 44.2%
for mortgage guaranty.  Life and health premiums also rose during these 1994
periods but remained below 3% of consolidated premiums and fees.

Consolidated net investment income was $110.3 million in the first half of 1994
and $55.1 million in the second quarter of 1994, reflecting flat to slightly
lower levels when compared to corresponding 1993 periods. While invested assets
have grown as a results of positive operating cash flow, the benefits of the
greater investment base have been offset in part by a greater commitment to tax-
exempt fixed maturity securities and common stock investments that typically
produce lower current yields. Equities made up about 5.9% of the investment
portfolio at the end of the first half of 1994 compared to 4.7% one year ago.
The average annual yield on investments was 6.1% and 6.6% for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

While the Company's investment policies have not been designed to maximize
capital gains, in the first six months of 1994 such gains were lower than those
for the comparable period in 1993. Dispositions of securities have, as in recent
periods, been caused principally by: (1) calls prior to maturity by issuers, (2)
a desire to extend moderately the average life of the portfolio, and (3) the
Company's ongoing process of monitoring its investments with a view toward
maximizing the quality of its portfolio. For the first six months of 1994,
approximately 73% of total dispositions represented maturities and early calls
of existing holdings; for the year 1993 these transactions amounted to
approximately 58%.

Expenses:
Consolidated benefit, claim and settlement costs, as a percentage of net
premiums and fees earned, were approximately 54% and 57% in the first six months
of 1994 and 1993, respectively. For the second quarter of each year these ratios
were 53% in 1994 and 54% in 1993.  Claims for property and liability coverages
were slightly lower in 1994 due to a decline in claim frequency and reduced
losses from involuntary pool assessments.  Mortgage Guaranty claim costs
increased, mainly in California, while the Title and Life segments benefited
from generally lower claim provisions.

The ratio of consolidated underwriting, acquisition and insurance expenses to
net premiums and fees earned was 48% and 45% in the first six months of 1994 and
1993, respectively. These ratios were 48% and 46% for the second quarters of
1994 and 1993, respectively. Variations in these percentages between comparative
periods typically reflect changing patterns in the mix of business and the
varying production costs pertaining thereto. While Title segment operating
expenses were being reduced during this year's second quarter, most of the
benefits from these cost reductions are expected in succeeding quarters.

Income from Operations:
Income before taxes, other items, and the cumulative effect of accounting
changes decreased by 3.8% in the first half of 1994 when compared to the same
period one year ago; for the second quarter of 1994, pre-tax income decreased by
15.4% when compared to the same period in 1993.  In the 1994 second quarter, the
Corporation's General and Mortgage Guaranty segments reflected higher pre-tax
operating earnings, the Life segment reported basically level to slightly lower
pre-tax earnings from operations, and the Title segment posted lower pre-tax
earnings for the aforementioned reasons. For the first half of the year the same
patterns prevailed.                                                             

The effective consolidated income tax rate was 32% and 31% in the first six
months of 1994 and 1993, respectively and 32% in the second quarter of both 1994
and 1993.  The rates for each period reflect primarily the varying proportions
of pre-tax operating income derived from tax-sheltered investment income
(principally tax-exempt interest) on the one hand, and fully taxable investment
and underwriting/service income on the other hand. In August 1993, the corporate
federal income tax rate was increased from 34% to 35% retroactive to January 1,
1993.  The 1993 income tax rate increase was recorded by the Company in its
third quarter 1993 financial statements on a cumulative basis as required in the
circumstances. Accordingly, the effective income tax expenses for the first half
of 1993 and 1994 are not comparable. The effective income tax rate for all of
1993 was 32%.


                                OTHER INFORMATION

Historical data pertaining to the operating results, liquidity, and other
financial matters applicable to an insurance enterprise such as the Company are
not necessarily indicative of expectations for future periods. The long-term
nature of the insurance business, seasonal and annual patterns in premium
production and incidence of claims, the random nature of the latter costs,
changes in market yields obtained on invested assets, and changes in government
policies affecting inflation rates and general economic conditions are some of
the factors which bear upon comparisons of quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year
operating results.
