GMIMCo has the responsibility to select and terminate investment
managers with respect to the Plans. It also itself manages certain
assets of the Plans. Four investment managers acting with respect to
the Plans are J.P. Morgan Investment Management, Inc., ERE Rosen Real
Estate, L.L.C., Aldrich, Eastman & Waltch, Inc. and Magten Asset
Management Corp. (the "External Managers"). GMIMCo and the External
Managers have discretionary authority over the assets of the Plans
which they manage including voting and investment power with respect
to shares of ORI Common included among such assets. In view of
GMIMCo's management of certain assets of the Plans and its authority

this statement ("Additional Securities"). The investment and voting
decisions regarding any Additional Securities which might be owned by
such trusts are made by the trustees thereof or unrelated investment
managers, who, in so acting, act independently of GMIMCo (although the
appointment of such investment managers is subject to authorization of
and termination by GMIMCo as noted above). No information regarding
any such holdings by such trusts under the Plans is contained in this
