ROBERT E. GALLAGHER 1923-2006
The employees of Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. pay tribute to our Chairman, Robert E. Gallagher, who passed away on August 30, 2006.
A true leader, philanthropist and consummate insurance broker,
Bob was a source of inspiration to us all.
Over his 58 year career, he was instrumental in growing
a small Chicago insurance agency into a global, billion-dollar
enterprise while fostering a culture based on integrity,
client focus and teamwork.
We miss you, Bob, but you will always be with us.
Your vision will guide us and the values you instilled in our company
will continue to light our way.

Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
Except for the historical information and discussions contained herein, statements contained herein may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, as discussed in the companys filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to the following: Gallaghers commission revenues are highly dependent on premiums charged by insurers, which are subject to fluctuation; lower interest rates reduce Gallaghers income earned on invested funds; alternative insurance markets continue to grow, which could unfavorably impact commission and favorably impact fee revenue, though not necessarily to the same extent; Gallaghers revenues vary significantly from period to period as a result of the timing of policy inception dates and the net effect of new and lost business production; the insurance brokerage industry is subject to a great deal of uncertainty due to investigations into its business practices by various governmental authorities and related private litigation; the general level of economic activity can have a substantial impact on Gallaghers renewal business; Gallaghers operating results, returns on investments and financial position may be adversely impacted by exposure to various market risks such as interest rate, equity pricing, foreign exchange rates and the competitive environment; Gallaghers revenues and net earnings may continue to be subject to reduction due to the elimination of certain contingent commission arrangements on January 1, 2005 and related developments in the insurance industry; and Gallaghers effective income tax rate may be subject to increase as a result of changes in income tax laws, unfavorable interpretations of such laws or changes in crude oil prices or developments resulting in the loss or unavailability of IRC Section 29-related Syn/Coal Credits. Gallaghers ability to grow has been enhanced through acquisitions, which may or may not be available on acceptable terms in the future and which, if consummated, may or may not be advantageous to Gallagher. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. For a further discussion of certain matters described above, see Item 1A, Risk Factors of Gallaghers Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This presentation includes certain information that may be considered non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of SEC regulations because it is derived from Gallaghers consolidated financial information but is not required to be presented in financial statements that are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Consistent with SEC regulations, a description of such information is provided below and a reconciliation of certain of such items to GAAP is provided on our web-site at www.ajg.com.
Pretax earnings from continuing operations for 2006 and 2005 were adjusted in this presentation to add back charges related to litigation and contingent commission matters and claims handling obligations and to eliminate the impact of medical and pension plan changes. Charges in 2006 related to retail contingent commission related matters and medical plan changes totaled $9.0 million (or $5.4 million after tax) and $7.5 million (or $4.5 million after tax), respectively. Charges in 2005 related to retail contingent commission matters and claims handling obligations totaled $73.6 million (or $44.2 million after tax) and $15.0 million (or $9.8 million after tax), respectively. In addition, Gallagher recognized a pension curtailment gain of $10.0 million (or $6.0 million after tax) in 2005. There were no such charges or gains in 2001 to 2004. These adjustments, which Gallagher believes are for non-recurring items, were made to GAAP earnings from continuing operations in 2006 and 2005 in order to calculate earnings from continuing operations before litigation and contingent commission related matters, claims handling obligations and medical and pension plan changes. In addition, total revenues and pretax earnings from continuing operations exclude retail contingent commissions and are on an as originally reported basis for all periods presented in this presentation.
Gallagher believes the non-GAAP financial measures included in this presentation provide meaningful additional information, which may be helpful to investors in assessing certain aspects of Gallaghers operating performance and financial condition that may not be otherwise apparent from GAAP. Industry peers provide similar supplemental information, although they may not use the same or comparable terminology and may not make identical adjustments. This non-GAAP information should be used in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the GAAP information.
