                         MIDLAND FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)



1.       The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements
         have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies in
         effect as of December 31, 1995 as set forth in the annual consolidated
         financial statements of Midland Financial Group, Inc. (the "Company"),
         of such date. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments necessary
         for a fair presentation of the consolidated condensed financial 
         statements have been included.  Certain 1995 amounts have been 
         reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation.  The results of 
         operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 1996, are not 
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
         The computations of earnings per share are based upon the weighted
         average number of common shares outstanding during each period
         adjusted for the assumed exercise of all outstanding stock options
         using the treasury stock method (5,567,000 and 5,462,000 for the three
         months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively).


2.       Subsequent Events

         On November 6, 1996, the Company entered an Agreement and Plan of
         Merger with The Progressive Corporation ("Progressive").  Under
         the agreement, Progressive will acquire all of the Company's
         outstanding stock at a price of $9.00 per share in cash.  The
         transaction is expected to be completed during the first quarter of
         1997, subject to a regulatory approval.

         In January 1997, the Company determined that its Quarterly Reports on
         Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, June 30 and
         September 30, 1996 should be amended to reflect the inadvertent
         omission of certain loss data from the actuarial analysis performed as
         of March 31, and June 30, 1996, aggregating $3.3 million of incurred
         commercial automobile liability losses and loss adjustment expenses. 
         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the
         quarter ended March 31, 1996 have been revised to reflect a $3.3
         million increase to loss and loss adjustment expense reserves.

         As a result of the restatement of the accompanying unaudited
         consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March
         31, 1996, the Company was in default of certain financial covenants
         under its bank credit facility at March 31, 1996. 

         The lender has requested to be paid in full at March 31, 1997.  Due to
         the current dividend restrictions on the Company's insurance
         subsidiaries, the Company will be unable to meet its 1997 debt service
         requirements without receiving special regulatory approval to dividend
         capital out of its insurance subsidiaries to the Company.  Management
         anticipates that the Progressive transaction will be consummated and
         the debt paid prior to March 31, 1997.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations as of March 31, 1996 has been revised to reflect the effect of the
restatement discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements.

Changes in Financial Condition March 31, 1996, as restated, compared to 
December 31, 1995.

The operating cash requirements of the Company relate primarily to the payment
of claims, policy acquisition costs and operating expenses.  Due to the nature
of risks the Company insures, the Company's liabilities can be estimated.
These liabilities generally develop and are resolved over a period of less than
three years.  Therefore, the Company generally has a predictable schedule of
cash needs.  The Company manages its investment activities to maintain adequate
liquidity for operating purposes and to protect its policyholders and
stockholders (i.e., "matching of liquidity and cash requirements").  The
Company's portfolio is heavily weighted toward intermediate fixed maturity
securities.  The Company generally invests in investment grade securities and
has a policy of not acquiring real estate investments.  Historically, the
Company has not experienced any "mismatches" related to liquidity management
and none are anticipated.  The Company carries its investment portfolio as
available for sale and the securities are stated at fair value.

During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company liquidated a portion of
its nontaxable securities, resulting in a net realized gain of $407,000.  The
proceeds from the sale of these securities were reinvested in higher yielding
taxable securities, to take advantage of the Company's net operating loss
carryforward generated in 1995.

The Company's objective is to maintain a capital adequacy ratio based on the
industry standard of a maximum of 3:1.  For the quarter ended March 31, 1996,
the capital adequacy ratio was 2.7:1 compared to 3:1 for the first quarter of
1995.  The Company expects its premium writings to decline during 1996 as a
result of its  decision during 1995 to eliminate certain programs and due to
rate increases already taken or anticipated to be taken during 1996.  The
Company is utilizing a 30% quota share reinsurance facility obtained effective
September 30, 1995 on its personal automobile programs in 1996.

The Company obtained a $20 million permanent credit facility in December 1993,
which was utilized to expand underwriting capacity in 1994.  This facility was
increased to $30 million in December, 1994, with the increase being utilized to
expand underwriting capacity during 1995.  At September 30, 1995, the Company
defaulted on certain financial covenants contained in the related loan
agreement.  The default was not cured prior to December 31, 1995.  The loan
agreement was amended, including revised financial covenants, effective March
1, 1996.  Under the terms of the restated loan agreement, the Company is not
required to pay principal until June 30, 1996, and quarterly thereafter through
June 30, 1998.  Interest is payable quarterly.

Results of Operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, as restated,
compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1995.

         Gross premiums written for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 increased
         by 6% as compared to the same period of 1995.  The Company expanded
         certain of its programs during 1995, but experienced unfavorable
         results.  Certain programs have been eliminated, rate increases have
         been or are being implemented and underwriting guidelines have been
         tightened.  As a result the Company expects 1996 premiums to decline
         as compared to 1995.  Net premiums written for the quarter
         ended March 31, 1996 declined by 21% as compared to the same quarter
         of 1995 due to the utilization of a 30% quota-share reinsurance
         facility during 1996.

         The Company expanded certain of its personal automobile
         programs during late 1994 and 1995, but experienced unfavorable
         results.  Certain of those programs have been eliminated, rate
         increases have been or are being implemented and underwriting
         guidelines have been tightened.  As a result, the Company expects 1996
         personal automobile premiums to decline as compared to 1995. 

         The Company also ceased to offer certain of its commercial automobile
         programs and consolidated its commercial lines underwriting
         operations.  These programs will be closely monitored and 
         re-evaluated throughout 1996. 

         Fee income for the quarter increased by 55% as compared to the
         same quarter of the prior year due to rate increases implemented in
         1995 and due to fees generated from direct bill policies.  During
         1994, a large percentage of the Company's business was agency billed
         business, but the accounts were substantially converted to direct bill
         in late 1994 and 1995.

         Losses and loss adjustment expenses for the quarter ended March 31,
         1996 increased by 28% as compared to the same period of 1995.  This
         increase was mitigated by the utilization of reinsurance during 1996.
         The loss ratio increased from 71.6% at March 31, 1995, when the
         Company retained 98% of its premiums written to 90.7% at March 31,
         1996, net of reinsurance.  The Company experienced adverse loss
         results on certain of its personal and commercial automobile programs
         during the second half of 1995 and during the first quarter of 1996. 
         The Company's loss and loss adjustment expense reserves have been
         established at levels consistent with the prior year end.

         Policy acquisition costs remained relatively flat for the first
         quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995, after giving
         recognition to ceding commission income on reinsurance.  This is due
         to a significant decrease in the percentage of acquisition costs being
         deferred, as a result of increased loss ratios.

         Operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 increased by
         20% as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1995 due primarily to
         the addition of certain personnel and the enhancement of information
         technology to increase underwriting controls.

         Interest and bank charges increased by 56% for the first quarter of
         1996 as compared to the first quarter of 1995 because the interest
         rate on the Company's credit facility was increased retroactive to
         October 1, 1995 during the first quarter of 1996.  In addition, the
         Company was required to pay amendment fees of $117,500 in connection
         with the renegotiation of the financial covenants of the loan during
         the first quarter of 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    As a result of the restatement of the accompanying unaudited
    consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the
    Company was in default of certain financial covenants under its bank credit
    facility at March 31, 1996.

    The lender has requested to be paid in full at March 31, 1997.  Due to the
    current dividend restrictions on the Company's insurance subsidiaries, the
    Company will be unable to meet its 1997 debt service requirements without   
    receiving special regulatory approval to dividend capital out of its 
    insurance subsidiaries to the Company.  Management anticipates that the
    Progressive transaction described in Note 2 will be consummated and the debt
    paid prior to March 31, 1997.


                                    PART II.

Item.1  Legal Proceedings.

    In August 1994, the Company and three of its wholly owned subsidiaries
    were named in a civil lawsuit on behalf of two Chapter 13 debtors and as
    putative representatives of a plaintiffs' class challenging the validity of
    the Chapter 13 automobile insurance program in Alabama.  The plaintiffs
    sought certification of a class, a declaration that the insurance policies
    violate Alabama statutes, a permanent injunction against further
    implementation of the Chapter 13 automobile insurance program in Alabama,
    and reimbursement of premiums received by the Company under Chapter 13
    automobile program in  Alabama. The Company and its subsidiaries denied the
    material allegations of  the complaint and were awarded Dismissal by Summary
    Judgement in August 1995.  The plaintiffs filed a motion for
    reconsideration which was denied in October  1995.  The plaintiffs have
    appealed this determination and no decision has been rendered to date.
     
    In May, 1995, the Company, one of its officers and one of its
    subsidiaries were named in a wrongful termination lawsuit by a former
    employee.  The matter is in the discovery stages.  Management believes that
    it had valid cause for the dismissal of this employee and will vigorously
    defend the case. Management believes that the resolution of this matter will
    not have a material impact on the Company's operations.
     
    The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in asserted claims in the
    normal course of business.  Management believes the outcome of these matters
    in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated
    financial statements of the Company.


Item 2. Changes in Securities.

    There were no changes in securities.


Item 3. Default by the Company upon its Senior Securities.

    The Company has no senior securities.


Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote by Security Holders.

    No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the first 
quarter.


Item 5. Other Information.

    None.
