                FRONTIER INSURANCE GROUP., INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES
    NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The  following  pro  forma  adjustments  have  been  applied  to the  historical
condensed  consolidated  statements  of income of the  Company  and UCHC for the
six-month period ended June 30, 1996, to give effect to the Acquisition as if it
had occurred on January 1, 1996:

(a) Net investment  income has been  decreased  by $2.2  million to reflect  the
reduction of  investment  income from the sale of fixed  maturities  to fund the
purchase of the  acquisition  ($30.9  million),  and from the sale of short-term
investments  and fixed  maturities  for the payment of a $49.8 million  dividend
from  UCHC to  Capsure  prior  to the  closing.  The  yield  assumed  on the two
transactions was 6.4% and 6.9%, respectively.

(b) Underwriting and other expense has been increased by $0.2 million to reflect
the  amortization of the excess cost over net assets  acquired  arising from the
acquisition.

(c) Income taxes have been  decreased  by $0.7  million  to reflect  the net tax
effect of the pro forma adjustments.
