NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996
UNAUDITED
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial information presented as of any date other than December 31
has been prepared from the books and records without audit. Financial
information as of December 31 has been derived from the audited financial
statements of the Company, but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements rely, in part, on estimates. In the opinion of
management, all necessary adjustments have been reflected for a fair
presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows
in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. The results for the
period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
entire year.
Reference should be made to the "Notes to Financial Statements" on pages F -
8 through F - 22 of the registrant's Form 10 - K for the year ended December
31, 1995. The amounts in those notes have not changed except as a result of
transactions in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise disclosed in
these notes.
Some figures in the 1995 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform with the 1996 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect
on net income or stockholders' equity, as previously reported.
Comparative results of operations and cash flow information is not presented
because the registrant did not begin insurance operations until December
1995. Activity until that time was limited to organizational activities.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS
Investment activity for the period ending June 30, 1996 consisted of the
collection of maturities, early call proceeds and proceeds from the sale of
certain available for sale fixed maturity securities, which totalled
$2,813,631. Market value of the Company's available for sale fixed maturity
securities continued to approximate amortized cost; accordingly no provision
for appreciation (depreciation) in investments is recorded in stockholders'
equity.

NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per common share were calculated by dividing net income by the
adjusted average number of common shares outstanding. Net income was
adjusted by preferred dividends declared and paid during April 1996. There
was no change in the average number of outstanding common shares from
December 31, 1995, and there was no dilution of common stock because the
preferred stock is not convertible to common stock before January 1, 2000.
The calculation of earnings per share for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1996 is based upon the following information:

NOTE 5 - REINSURANCE
The Company's financial statements reflect the effects of ceded reinsurance
transactions. The Company does not assume reinsurance in the ordinary course
of business. However, effective November 30, 1995, the Company, in a
transaction approved by the Florida Department of Insurance, assumed the
insurance assets and liabilities of Associated Business & Commerce Workers'
Compensation Self - Insurance Fund, the Company's predecessor (the "Fund"),
by virtue of a loss portfolio transaction ("LPT"). The excess of premium
received over losses assumed was treated as deferred LPT premium on the
balance sheet.
The deferred LPT premium is earned in the ratio of assumed losses paid to
total assumed losses. Deferred LPT premium earned for the period ended June
30, 1996 totalled $245,036.
Ceded reinsurance involves transferring certain risks the Company has
underwritten to other insurance companies who agree to share these risks.
The primary purpose of ceded reinsurance is to protect the Company from
potential losses in excess of the amount it is prepared to accept.

NOTE 5 - REINSURANCE (CONTINUED)
The Company expects those with whom it has ceded reinsurance to honor their
obligations. In the event these companies are unable to honor their
obligations, the Company will pay the shortfall.

NOTE 6 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, the Company may be involved in workers' compensation
proceedings relating to claims arising out of its operations in the normal
course of business. As of the filing date of the Form 10-Q, the Company is
not party to any legal proceedings outside of its ordinary workers
compensation settlement business which management believes would materially
affect the financial position or operations of the Company with the
exception of the matter described below.
In July 1992, the Fund filed a lawsuit in the State Circuit Court of Palm
Beach County, Florida, forbreach of contract against Advanced Risk
Management Incorporated ("ARMI") claiming damages for excess fees and
advances collected by ARMI, the former service company of the Fund. A
counterclaim was filed by ARMI alleging breach of contract, breach of
fiduciary duty and fraud. On January 2, 1994, the court granted summary
judgment in favor of the Fund with respect to all of the counterclaims made
by ARMI. The summary judgment was appealed by ARMI and reversed by the
Fourth District Court of Appeal, which remanded the matter back to the trial
court to resolve specific issues. On December 15, 1995 the trial court
granted the Fund's renewed motion for summary judgment. ARMI has filed an
appeal as to this judgment as well. The Fund intends to continue to pursue
and defend this claim on its own behalf. There can be no assurance however,
that, in the event of an unfavorable ruling against the Fund, recovery would
not be sought from the Company. In the event there is an unfavorable
outcome, which management believes to be unlikely, the Fund's liability is
estimated at less than $1,000,000, for which the Company would be
responsible.

UNAUDITED
NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
All of the Company's outstanding common stock as well as all of the
outstanding Series B preferred stock are owned by the Company's parent,
Associated Business & Commerce Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"). Holdings was
organized in March 1995 for the purpose of providing financing and
performing certain management services for the Company under a management
agreement. All common stock and Series B preferred stock have been pledged
as collateral against a note payable issued by Holdings.
The note payable of Holdings was issued to the Company's quota share
reinsurer, Underwriters Reinsurance Company ("Underwriters"). The loan bears
interest at 12.75% per annum, and, if not prepaid, is due on September 30,
2000. Holdings expects to repay the loan from fees paid by the Company under
a management agreement.
Holdings renegotiated the loan agreement with Underwriters during the second
quarter of 1996, reducing the level of cash flows required for debt service,
and concurrently reduced the management fee to 11.3% of written premium. The
management agreement originally called for the Company to pay 14.1% of
written premium to Holdings in return for Holdings performing certain
administrative functions and paying certain costs on behalf of the Company.
Management fee expense incurred by the Company under the terms of this
renegotiated agreement totaled $1,693,002 for the period ended June 30,
1996.
Policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses reflected in the
statement of operations for the period period ended June 30, 1996 are net of
$2,394, 679 in ceding commissions paid to the Company by Underwriters.
The advances receivable at June 30, 1996 of $462,397 represents working
capital advances to Holdings which are non - interest bearing and will be
repaid as cash flow of Holdings permits.
NOTE 7 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
On May 2, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors adopted an amendment to its
articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of 6%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A, from 900,000 to 1,900,000.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
June 30, 1996
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company is reporting income before taxes for the first two quarters of 1996
of $283,000 based on premium volume of $13,600,000. Annualized premium as of
June 30, 1996 amounts to approximately $27,300,000 or a slight reduction from
the calendar year 1995 amount of $27,900,000. As discussed in the Company's Form
10-K for 1995, certain insureds elected not to renew their coverage with the
Company effective January 1, 1996, which management perceived as being the
result of increased competition generated by favorable 1993 legislative changes
and also the late date in 1995 that the Company completed its plan to announce
the availability of non-assessable insurance coverage. Since the Form 10-K was
prepared and filed, the Company has written new business which has resulted in a
restoration to 1995 writing levels. The adjustments to premium pricing and
availability factors as discussed in the Form 10-K have resulted in a greater
portion of submissions being accepted by potential customers. Although writings
have been restored to 1995 levels, leading management to be optimistic regarding
the Company's 1996 writings, the adjustments to budgeted expenditures made by
management in response to the reduction of January 1, 1996 renewals remain in
place, to be modified only to the extent required by increasing premium volume.
As a result of the full absorption of the Company's 70% quota-share
arrangements, earned premiums ceded for reinsurance (including excess loss
re-insurance) amounts to 71.8% of earned premium. Loss and operating expense
ratios are effected somewhat by the ceding of premium in comparison to 1995's
ratios during which the quota-share treaty was only in effect for the last
quarter of the year.
For the first two quarters of 1996, the loss and loss expense ratio is 63.5% and
the expense ratio is 47.8% or a combined ratio of 111.2%. The investment ratio
(interest and investment earnings divided by net earned premium) amounted to
12.2% for the second quarter resulting in an overall operating ratio of 99%.
Included within the statement of operations is recognition of deferred gain on
the loss portfolio transfer transaction between the Company and the Fund of
approximately $245,000. Without the recognition of this gain, the Company would
have recorded operating income before income taxes of approximately $38,000.
For the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Fund reported earned premium of
approximately $13,600,000 and income before taxes of approximately $354,000 in
its unaudited financial statements. The Fund was not a party to any quota-share
reinsurance treaty during that period nor was any management agreement in effect
as is the case with the Company for 1996. Policy acquisition and other
underwriting expenses for the Company for the first quarter included
approximately $144,000 of amounts paid to Holdings, which was utilized by
Holdings for debt service on its loan from Underwriters. However, based upon
Holdings renegotiating the terms of its note payable to Underwriters, no amount
of the management fee was used for debt service during the second quarter.
As indicated above, Holdings renegotiated its note payable with Underwriters
during the second quarter ended June 30, 1996. Under the revised agreement, no
principal or interest payments are payable until March 31, 1997, and
Underwriters will refund all principal and interest payments made through June
30, 1996. All other terms of the note remain unchanged.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
June 30, 1996
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As was anticipated and described in the Company's Form 10-K, cash flows from
operating activities for the first two quarters was a negative $3,600,000. This
was anticipated because of the Company's quota-share arrangements with
Underwriters. Such negative cash flows from operations were offset by proceeds
from investment maturities and other investment activities realizing cash flows
of approximately $2,300,000 and from proceeds from the issuance of additional
Series A preferred stock of approximately $276,000 resulting in an overall
decrease in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 1996 of
approximately $1,100,000.
Invested assets reduced from $14,400,000 at the end of 1995 to $11,600,000 as of
June 30, 1996 with a decrease in cash of approximately $1,100,000. Negative cash
flows from operations are expected to continue throughout 1996 as funding of the
quota-share recoverables continues by virtue of the transfer of premium to the
quota-share reinsurer pursuant to the quota-share treaty. As claims are settled
and paid in the future, management anticipates that such negative flows will
eventually reverse or stabilize as reimbursements due from the reinsurer for
claims paid and other reimbursements for operating expenses equal or exceed
premiums due pursuant to the treaty.
On a statutory basis, the Company is reporting statutory surplus of
approximately $4,900,000 and statutory net income of $893,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996. Based upon the Company's current writings, required
statutory surplus is the minimum of $4,000,000, pursuant to Florida's Insurance
Code.
On May 2, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors adopted an amendment to its
articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of 6%
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A, from 900,000 to 1,900,000.
