Please complete and return the attached proxy whether or not you plan to attend the meeting. A proxy may be revoked at any time prior to the meeting in writing or by attendance of the shareholder at the meeting. Shareholders of record as of the date of this proxy statement are entitled to notice and to vote at the meeting. As of such date, there were 25,000 participating shares outstanding, held by 448 persons representing 250 series. All of the Company's outstanding common stock is held by Motors Insurance Corporation ("MIC"), which organized the Company. Each share of common stock and each participating share entitles the holder to one vote on matters on which that class of stock is entitled to vote. The amendment to the Company's By-Law No. 1 described in this proxy statement must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of common stock and of the participating shares, present at the meeting by proxy or otherwise. This proxy statement is accompanied by notice of the meeting, audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001 and a form of proxy. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS The Company has a board of directors consisting of six members. Five directors, of whom one is a resident of Barbados, are elected by the holder of the common shares and one director is elected by holders of the participating shares. Directors serve without compensation other than reimbursement of actual expenses. They are elected for one year terms. Mr. Harvey J. Koning has been nominated to stand for election as director by the holders of participating shares. Other nominations can be made by the holders of at least two series of participating shares by notifying the secretary in writing at least ten days prior to the meeting. The nominee receiving the highest number of votes will be elected. In addition, five directors will be elected by the holder of the common stock (MIC). It is anticipated that MIC will choose to re-elect William B. Noll, John J. Dunn, Jr., Peter R.P. Evelyn, Thomas D. Callahan and Robert E. Capstack to serve as directors. Information regarding the age and current occupation of persons nominated to be re-elected as directors by the holder of the common stock and the person nominated to be elected as director by the holders of participating shares is set forth below.

Noll 59 Chairman, CEO, President & Director (President, MIC, 1999; Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer, MIC, 1993-1999). Mr. Noll became President & Director in 1995 and became Chairman and CEO in 1996. Thomas D.

Koning 61 Nominee for Director to be elected by the participating shareholders. (President, Grand Oldsmobile Center Inc., Grand Rapids, Michigan, 1983). AMENDMENT OF BY-LAW NO. 1 The Company's By-Law No. 1 currently provides that each member of the Company's Board of Directors, including the Director elected by the holders of participating shares (the "Participating Director"), is generally elected to serve for a term of one year. Directors elected by the holder of the Company's outstanding common stock (MIC) are eligible for re-election, but the Participating Director is not. Management believes that it would be beneficial for Participating Directors to be eligible to be re-elected to serve one additional term and for individuals who have previously served as a Participating Director, to be elected again. Accordingly, Management proposes that the second sentence of By-Law No. 1, Section 4.3 be amended to read as follows: The duties of such committee shall be limited to the nomination of a person, who may not be an incumbent director serving a second term, to stand for election, or re-election, as a director by the holders of the participating shares at the next annual meeting. and that By-Law No. 1, Section 4.5 be amended to read as follows: Tenure: Unless his tenure is sooner determined, a director shall hold office from the date on which he is elected or appointed until the close of the annual meeting of the shareholders next following or until his successors are elected or appointed, whichever shall last occur, provided that a director elected by holders of the common shares shall be eligible for re-election to serve an unlimited number of terms and a director elected by holders of participating shares shall be eligible for re-election to serve one additional term. Subject to the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent an individual who is not an incumbent director, but who has previously served as a director elected by holders of participating shares, from being elected to serve as a director. ELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The Board of Directors proposes that the shareholders confirm the selection of Deloitte & Touche, Bridgetown, Barbados, as independent auditors to audit the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2002. Deloitte & Touche has served as the Company's independent auditors since its inception in 1986. Representatives of Deloitte & Touche are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
