(1) Restricted shares issued by White Mountains receive dividends, and therefore, are considered participating securities. (2) Restricted shares outstanding vest either in equal annual installments or upon a stated date (see Note 13). (3) The diluted earnings per share denominator for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 do not include common shares issuable upon exercise of the Non-Qualified Options as they are anti-dilutive to the calculation.
