3 A Multi-Year Look at Probable Maximum Loss (PML) 100-Year Probable Maximum Loss by Account Single-Event Occurrence Exceedance 2

4 2012 Estimated Claims-Paying Ability Notes: 1.Surplus amounts consist of preliminary (unaudited) 2011 surplus and 2012 projected net income. 2.Pre-Event Liquidity does not represent risk transfer and any monies drawn must be repaid. 3.FHCF coverage is based on preliminary 2012 retention and payment multiples, but the actual retention and limits may be significantly different from these estimates.

5 Implement Basic Product Offer a basic product that will not compete with preferred products offered in the private market. Implementing coverage changes resulting in a $2B reduction in the PML. Developing a named peril HO8. Continuing to look at additional coverage change opportunities that will make us less competitive and/or result in additional PML/exposure reductions. 4

6 Completed Aggressive Risk Transfer Program The transfer and removal of risk reduces exposure and minimizes assessment potential. $750M in private reinsurance purchased $750M in Catastrophe Bonds Issued 5

7 Return of Policies to the Private Market Policies should be returned to and stay in the private market. Year-to-date 80,288 policies have been removed, representing $19.8B in exposure. Recent Depopulation Summit spurred interest in removing policies and generated creative proposals. Citizens is actively evaluating various proposals, including those that contemplate using Citizens surplus to augment private market capital. 6

8 Facilitating the Return of Policies to the Private Market Authorized insurers interested in removing policies from Citizens: Obtain access to confidential claims and underwriting files to evaluate books of business in detail. Receive approval, by order, from the Office of Insurance Regulation for takeout plan. Work with Citizens to select policies for removal and to notify policyholders and agents. Receive acceptance of takeout offer from policyholders and agents. Assumption occurs. 7

9 Public Education Campaign Policyholders in Florida need to know the whole story about Citizens. We are developing a comprehensive education campaign focused on funding and coverage differences. Survey Floridians to see whether or not they know about assessment potential Schedule editorial board visits throughout the state Hold town hall meetings Create educational materials for companies and agents to use when discussing insurance choices Revised assessment acknowledgement form to include an example 8

10 Developing a Comprehensive Sinkhole Strategy Citizens sinkhole loss experience is not sustainable. Since 2007, Citizens has collected $206 million in sinkhole premiums while paying $1.2B in losses and allocated loss adjustment expenses. Citizens now requires inspections for new business requesting sinkhole coverage, in 16 counties and will implement a sinkhole re-underwriting program for existing business in Citizens is developing a strategy centered around six key components: coverage, claims handling, fraud prevention, litigation, managed repair program and legislation. 9
