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


1.       The accompanying unaudited consolidated 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 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
         and six-month periods ended June 30, 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 each period adjusted for
         the assumed exercise of outstanding dilutive stock options using the
         treasury stock method.

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
         six months ended June 30, 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 six-month period ended June
         30, 1996, the Company was in default of certain financial covenants
         under its bank credit facility at June 30, 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 Conditions and
         Results of Operations as of June 30, 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 June 30, 1996, as restated, compared to 
December 31, 1995.

         The operating cash requirements of the Company primarily relate 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.  The 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 investment 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.
         At June 30, 1996, the balance of ($1.8) million shown as cash was net
         of a significant amount of outstanding checks for claim payments.
         This was a temporary situation.  The Company has paid significant
         amounts of premiums to its reinsurer during the first half of 1996 but
         anticipates collecting on paid claims throughout the remainder of
         1996.  In addition, the Company is moving a substantial portion of its
         securities portfolio to taxable securities and will increase its
         balance of cash on hand during the third quarter of 1996.  At December
         31, 1994, the Company's fixed maturity securities were classified as
         held-to-maturity.  During 1995, the Company's Investment Committee
         made a decision to liquidate and reinvest the proceeds of certain of
         those securities to take advantage of higher available yields.  As a
         result, the Company has reclassified the entire portfolio to
         available-for-sale and the securities are carried at fair value.

         The Company's objective is to maintain a premiums-to-surplus ratio
         based on the industry standard of a maximum of 3:1.  For the quarter
         and six months ended June 30, 1996, the premiums-to-surplus ratio was
         2.7:1 and 2.71:1, compared to 2.98:1 and 2.78:1 for the same
         periods of 1995.  The Company anticipates these ratios will continue to
         decrease during the remainder of 1996.

         The Company's permanent credit 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.  This default was not cured prior to December
         31, 1995.  The loan agreement was amended, including revised financial
         covenants, effective March 1, 1996.  See "Liquidity and Capital
         Resources."

Results of Operations for the quarter and six-months, as restated, ended
June 30, 1996 compared to the quarter and six-months ended June 30, 1995.

Gross premiums written for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996 were
slightly less than for the same periods of 1995 due to deliberate changes made
in underwriting guidelines and elimination of certain of the Company's programs.
This is in line with management's stated goals for 1996.

Net premiums written for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996 were
32% and 27% less, respectively, than the same periods of the prior year due to
the 30% quota share reinsurance in-force in the first half of 1996 and not in
the same period of 1995.

Earned premiums decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996
compared to those same periods of 1995 due to the decreases in premiums written
and due to the 30% quota share reinsurance in place in 1996.

Fee income for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996 was higher than
for the same periods of 1995 due to increases in amounts of fees charged in
certain programs and due to a larger percentage of the Company's in-force
business being direct billed.

Investment income decreased slightly for the quarter and six months ended June
30, 1996 compared to the same periods of 1995 due to a heavier concentration in
tax preferential securities in 1996 than in 1995.  Also, in 1995, the Company
was earning a higher rate on its invested cash than it is in 1996.

Losses for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 were slightly lower than losses for
the same period of 1996 due to the cession of 30% to reinsurers in 1996.  The
loss ratio, however, increased to 83.6% from 75.8% for the quarters ended June
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, due to the continued effects of the in-force
policies from unprofitable programs written in 1995.  The loss ratio for the
first six months of 1996 was 87.2% compared to 73.9% for the same period of 1995
due to the continuing effects of the adverse loss results the Company has
experienced on certain of its personal and commercial automobile programs.

During the second quarter, management of the Company retained an experienced
commercial claims specialist to review its commercial claims files and to
reevaluate its claims handling procedures and philosophies.  Certain of the
outstanding loss reserves for reported commercial claims have been increased as
a result of his review, which is ongoing.

Policy acquisition costs for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 decreased by 19.2%
due to the decrease in premiums and the effects of ceding commission income on
reinsurance. The expense ratio for the same periods decreased to 23.6% from
25.2% due to the ceding commission. Year-to-date at June 30, 1996, the expense
ratio decreased to 24.3% from 25.1% year to date as of June 30, 1995.

Operating expenses increased for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1996 compared to the same periods of 1995 due to the addition of certain
control personnel, such as actuaries, an internal auditor, a market analyst and
due to software development costs. The Company is converting its in-house
insurance processing software to accommodate the century change.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a result of the restatement of the 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 June 30, 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 the 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 plaintiff's 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.  The lawsuit
         was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District
         of Alabama, Western Division, and is presently pending in the United
         States Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit.

         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.  This lawsuit is pending in the State of Illinois Circuit
         Court, Seventh Judicial Circuit.   The matter is in the discovery
         stages.  Management of the Company also believes that it had valid
         cause for the dismissal of this employee and presently intends to
         vigorously defend the case.  Management of the Company also believes
         that the resolution of this matter will not have a material impact on
         the Company's operations.

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.

           There were no matters submitted to a vote by security holders.

Item 5.
         Other Information.

         Subsequent Events.  On July 17, 1996, the President and Chief Operating
         Officer of the Company, Charles H. Gray, III, along with two executives
         of Danielson Holding Corporation were killed in the crash of TWA flight
         800.  Shortly thereafter, the proposed merger of the two companies was
         cancelled.

         The duties of the President and Chief Operating officer have been
         assumed by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph W. McLeary.
