Dear Shareholder:

     Attached to this letter is a brief supplement to our Proxy Statement, dated
May 11, 2000, which involves our pending merger with Griffin Acquisition Corp.
The supplement explains a recent development in our litigation against Zenith
Insurance Company and Arthur Andersen LLP in which we seek to recover additional
amounts from Zenith in connection with our asset sale to Zenith in 1998. Class A
shareholders are entitled to receive an additional pro rata amount in the event
RISCORP obtains a recovery.

     The Board of Directors continues to believe that this transaction is in the
best interests of the Class A shareholders.

     ANOTHER PROXY AND RETURN ENVELOPE ARE ENCLOSED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE. IF YOU
HAVE NOT RETURNED YOUR PROXY, PLEASE TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO VOTE YOUR PROXY
TODAY. IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY RETURNED YOUR PROXY AND WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE YOUR
VOTE, PLEASE USE THE ENCLOSED PROXY AND RETURN ENVELOPE. YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT.

     This letter and the accompanying Supplement to the Proxy Statement are
first being mailed to RISCORP's shareholders on or about June 9, 2000.

     If you have any questions about this Supplement or the Proxy Statement,
please let me hear from you.

                                           Sincerely,

                                           /s/ Walter E. Riehemann
                                           Walter E. Riehemann

                         SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT

                                  JUNE 9, 2000

                             ---------------------

     As more fully described in the Proxy Statement, upon completion of the
merger, each share of Class A Common Stock will receive a cash payment of $2.85
without interest and less any required withholding taxes, subject to adjustment
as set forth in the merger agreement, plus a contingent right to receive an
additional pro rata cash amount if RISCORP recovers any amounts from Zenith
Insurance Company or other specified parties in connection with RISCORP's sale
of assets to Zenith in 1998.

     On January 5, 2000, RISCORP filed suit against Zenith and Arthur Andersen
LLP seeking to recover either $18,057,000 or $5,872,000, plus interest,
depending on the findings of the court about the nature of the neutral auditors'
alleged errors. On March 16, 2000, Zenith initiated an arbitration proceeding
seeking (1) an order barring RISCORP under the Settlement Agreement from
challenging an $18,057,000 adjustment made by Arthur Andersen LLP in connection
with deciding the final purchase price, (2) a determination that RISCORP had
breached the Settlement Agreement by bringing certain counts of the court
action, (3) damages, attorney's fees and expenses caused by RISCORP's alleged
breach, and (4) if the Settlement Agreement did not bar RISCORP from seeking to
recover the $18,057,000, then a finding that RISCORP had fraudulently induced
Zenith to enter the Settlement Agreement. RISCORP's suit against Zenith has not
proceeded pending resolution of Zenith's claims in arbitration.

     On June 1, 2000, an independent arbitrator ruled against Zenith and in
favor of RISCORP on all matters before the arbitrator. This means that RISCORP
is not barred by the Settlement Agreement from seeking to recover from Zenith
either $18,057,000 or $5,872,000, depending on the nature of the neutral
auditors' alleged errors. RISCORP will now proceed promptly with its lawsuit.
Given the uncertainties inherent in litigation, even though RISCORP was
successful in this arbitration, there can be no assurance that RISCORP
ultimately will be successful in this litigation and, accordingly, it is
possible that holders of Class A Common Stock will only receive the $2.85 cash
payment in the merger.
