NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

March 31, 1996

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by the Registrant without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission and reflect all adjustments consisting
of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods shown.
These statements are condensed and do not include all information required by
generally accepted accounting principles to be included in a full set of
financial statements.  It is suggested that these condensed statements be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements at and for the year
ended December 31, 1995 and notes thereto, included in the Registrant's annual
report as of that date.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
conform with current period presentations.


MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS


OPERATIONS

Net income for the first quarter of 1996 increased to $260,564 from a loss of
$(5,986) for the same period in 1995.  This increase resulted from improvements
in both underwriting results and investment results.

While earned premiums declined 5% from the first quarter of 1995 due to a
continued competitive Accountants Professional Liability Insurance market, and
policy acquisition costs increased 16% due to a contractual increase effective
August 1, 1995, these changes were offset by a reduction in the loss ratio to
92% from 105%.  Losses incurred do not reflect any development of prior year
reserves.  The loss ratio of 92% represents the effective rate selected by
management in consultation with the Company's independent consulting actuary to
apply to current premiums assumed and earned.  These fluctuations combined to
result in a net underwriting loss of $(439,824) for the period as compared to
$(533,619) for the same period in 1995.

Investment yield remained consistent with recent prior periods at 6.5%, however
sales of securities during the quarter resulted in realized capital gains of
$169,422 as compared to losses of $(82,855) in the first quarter of 1995.  In
the prior year period the Company made a tax payment of $3,500,000,
necessitating the sale of several fixed maturity investments.  Investments
selected were those generating a capital loss in order to obtain the benefit of
tax loss carrybacks.  In the first quarter of 1996, the Company retained an
equity manager for the purpose of investing $2,000,000 in equities.  Upon the
advice of the equity manager, $1,250,000 held in mutual funds as of December 31,
1995 were liquidated which resulted in the gain.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

As of March 31, 1996, 99% of investments were in fixed maturities other than
short-term investments.  As discussed above, management has appointed a new
equity manager, and transferred approximately $2,000,000 or 5% of total
investments to an equity portfolio during the second quarter.  The balance of
cash remained stable, as did the ratio of cash and invested assets to total
liabilities, which was 1.43 to 1, compared to a ratio of 1.45 to 1 at March 31,
1995.

Deferred policy acquisition costs, representing the deferral of ceding
commissions expense related to premiums not yet earned, increased from December
31, 1995 with the increase in unearned premiums and an increase in the ceding
commission rate from 21.5% to 28.5% which became effective August 1, 1995.

The Registrant paid its third consecutive quarterly dividend of $0.65 per share
during the first quarter of 1996.
