Caution Regarding Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains historical information as well as forward-looking statements that are based upon our estimates and anticipation of future events that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary materially from the expected results described in the forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "hopeful," "intend," "may," "optimistic," "preliminary," "project," "should," "will," and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. There are numerous important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Thus, sentences and phrases that we use to convey our view of future events and trends are expressly designated as "forward-looking statements" as are sections of this news release clearly identified as giving our outlook on future business. The principal risk factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from th ose expressed in the forward-looking statements are described in various documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Form 10K/A for the year ended December 31, 2004 and Form 10Q for the most recent quarter and Form S-4/A filed June 2, 2006. These forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks, assumptions and uncertainties, including, among other things, the following important factors that could affect the actual outcome of future events. Relating to the proposed transaction with PIC Wisconsin, we add the following specific cautions: The business of ProAssurance and PIC Wisconsin may not be combined successfully, or such combination may take longer to accomplish than expected; the cost savings from the merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; operating costs, customer loss and business disruption following the merger, including adverse effects on relationships with employees, may be greater than expected; restrictions on our ability to achieve continued growth through expansion into other states or through acquisitions or business combinations; and the stockholders of PIC Wisconsin may fail to approve the merger. .We urge you not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and wish to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect our financial performance and could cause actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to periods in any current statements. We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. . Financial data for the medical malpractice segment for all periods prior to June, 2001 reflects Medical Assurance, Inc. data only, except where noted.

ProAssurance Growth Strategy The current market environment favors growth by acquisition DE NOVO GROWTH vs. GROWTH BY ACQUISITION - Must price your way into the market Must price your way into the market + Pricing can be adjusted - No prior historyNo prior history + Prior history available - Lack of experienced personnel Lack of experienced personnel + Local expertise available - Limited access to key defense lawyers Limited access to key defense lawyers + Access to proven defense lawyers - Must establish distribution Must establish distribution + Utilize existing distribution - Must create brand awareness Must create brand awareness + Build on existing relationships with insureds and organized medicine, etc. + No integration risk -Integration risk + No reserve risk -Reserve risk--need for careful due diligence
