News Release


                 ST. PAUL TRAVELERS TO CHANGE COMPANY NAME TO
                 TRAVELERS AND BRING BACK ICONIC RED UMBRELLA

                            Stock ticker to be TRV

SAINT PAUL, Minn., Feb 13, 2007 -- The St. Paul Travelers Companies, Inc.
(NYSE:STA) announced today that it has signed a definitive agreement to
reacquire the familiar red umbrella trademark, a highly recognizable symbol
that had represented Travelers and insurance protection for decades. After the
closing of the transaction, the company will change its name to The Travelers
Companies, Inc. and will begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange under
the new stock symbol "TRV." The transaction is subject to customary regulatory
approvals.

"The red umbrella is one of the great American business icons. It's a familiar
representation of protection and insurance that is in-synch with our
customers' ever-changing needs," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jay
Fishman. "Bringing back the umbrella and changing the company name will
further advance the highly regarded Travelers brand."

The umbrella is believed to have first appeared as an illustration of
insurance protection in a Travelers ad in 1870, and, as the red umbrella,
became the official company trademark in 1959. The red umbrella became
increasingly synonymous with Travelers insurance protection and innovation
over the decades. A decision by Citigroup to pursue a unified global brand
identity allowed Travelers to regain the familiar insurance industry icon,
which continues to be most closely identified with Travelers.

"We're pleased to be bringing the reassuring red umbrella back home to
Travelers, as part of our focused efforts to continue building the Travelers
brand for home, auto and business insurance customers," said Fishman.

The company expects to allocate the purchase price principally to the umbrella
trademark, which will be recorded as an asset and is not subject to
amortization for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the company will not record
a charge to earnings upon closing of the transaction. The company expects to
close the transaction by mid-March.
