This slide presentation is for informational purposes only.It should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K for the year 2007, our Form 10-Q for the
quarters of 2007 and our Form 8-Ks filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), all of which are available on the “Investor Relations”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In presenting Employers Holdings, Inc.’s (EMPLOYERS) results, management has included and discussed certain non-GAAP financial measures, as
defined in Regulation G.Management believes these non-GAAP measures better explain EMPLOYERS results allowing for a more complete
understanding of underlying trends in our business.These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with GAAP.
The reconciliation of these measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures is included in this presentation or in our Form 10-K for the year
2007, our Form 10-Q for the quarters of 2007 and our Form 8-Ks filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and available in the “Investor

Forward-looking Statements

This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-
looking statements include statements regarding anticipated future results and can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or
current facts. They often include words like "believe”, "expect”, "anticipate”, "estimate" and "intend" or future or conditional verbs such as "will”, "would”,
"should”, "could" or "may”. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results include increased competitive pressures,
changes in the interest rate environment, general economic conditions, and legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business of
EMPLOYERS and its subsidiaries.All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or individuals acting on our behalf are
expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.

All forward-looking statements made in this presentation, related to the anticipated acquisition of AmCOMP, Inc. or otherwise, reflect EMPLOYERS
current views with respect to future events, business transactions and business performance and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from
those set forth in these statements. The following factors, among others, could cause or contribute to such material differences:failure to satisfy any of the
conditions of closing, including the failure to obtain AmCOMP stockholder approval or any required regulatory approvals; the risks that EMPLOYERS and
AmCOMP's businesses will not be integrated successfully; the risk that EMPLOYERS will not realize estimated cost savings and synergies; costs relating
to the proposed transaction; and disruption from the transaction making it more difficult to maintain relationships with customers, employees,agents or
producers.We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events
or otherwise.
