5 In risk assessment, there is no such thing as overanalyzing. Gallagher Risk Modeling We perform a Directors & Officers Liability (D&O) Limits Analysis, using three distinct analytics to recommend an appropriate range of limits. These are: A peer analysis or benchmarking of limits using unbiased third-party databases. Our proprietary statistical loss model, which incorporates metrics used by the plaintiff s bar to model loss values associated with class-action securities litigation related to allegations of inadequate or inaccurate disclosure. The loss model s assumptions are routinely updated from knowledgeable sources to ensure relevancy. A review of historical D&O claims with losses in excess of $10 million, and an evaluation of the potential impact of such losses to your company. We then synthesize the results to produce a recommended level of limits. This will provide your board with the information needed to assess your management liability risks and decide how to most appropriately cover them. $150 D&O LIMIT SIDE A $75 $35 $35 $30 $105 $65 $80 $75 $0 PEER ANALYSIS AJG MODEL HISTORICAL RECOMMENDED NORTON BASTIAN INDEX FOR D&O COVERAGE QUALITY YEAR 5

6 Directors & Officers Liability Coverage Analysis We also monitor market changes in D&O policy provisions. Results of our analysis are depicted in the Norton-Bastian Index. This index alters depending on new coverage granted or new restrictions prevalent in the market. With the index as a guide, we can evaluate our clients D&O programs and illustrate how their coverage stacks up in the market. The index, and where your company falls on it, provides a solid metric to board members. International D&O Risk Matrix Management liability insurers are adapting to global issues. A growing concern is ensuring local policies are purchased in countries in which the insured operates. There are very real risks not properly addressed under the non-admitted D&O policies with worldwide coverage territories. To assess these risks, we developed an International D&O Risk Matrix. It analyzes and illustrates local legal and regulatory environments to identify countries where placing a locally admitted D&O policy is advisable. Pension and Welfare Plan Fiduciary Liability Limits Analysis We also use three analytics to assist you in evaluating your pension and welfare plan Fiduciary Liability exposure. These include: Peer analysis or benchmarking. A proprietary loss model based on total plan assets, defined benefit plan assets and 401(k) plan values. An evaluation of historical claim values from a variety of sources, including the leading insurance companies. Employment Practices Liability (EPL) Limits Analysis Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. utilizes an EPL loss database in order to model risk in terms of both single plaintiff exposure and discrimination class-action claims. As the potential size of EPL claims are directly related to the size and diversity of the insured organization, our loss model has proven to be quite effective as it relates exposure to the number of employees, type and mix of employees, and location of operations. We further provide multidimensional EPL benchmarking reports as well as a review of historical claims with EPL losses in excess of $1 million, taken from the extensive database. Commercial Crime/Fidelity Insurance Limits Analysis We also use three evaluations in order to suggest minimum limits of liability for crime exposure. These are: A peer analysis using industry-leading third-party databases. An exposure index developed by the Surety Association of America (SAA) in cooperation with the American Institute of Accountants. An analysis of our clients required bond limits as dictated under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Cyber/Internet Limits Analysis Our proprietary analytics quantifies your technology, media, and professional liability exposures based on your specific risk profile and risk control techniques. Our analysis incorporates multiple methods, including peer analysis or benchmarking, historical claim loss analysis, and a series of complementary quantitative loss models that blend together to assess this complex risk. 6
