the last or closing sale price or, if unavailable, at the closing bid price at the valuation date. Investments in money market funds are
valued at net asset value per share. Other short-term investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Securities
for which no ready market exists are valued at estimated fair value pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board of Directors. The determination
of fair value involves subjective judgments. As a result, using fair value to price a security may result in a price materially different
from the price used by other investors or the price that may be realized upon the actual sale of the security.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Management assists the Board of Directors in the
determination of fair value of Plymouth Rock. In valuing the Plymouth Rock Level 3 investment as of March 31, 2025, management considered
Plymouth Rock&rsquo;s financial condition and results of operations, the insurance industry outlook, and any transactions in Plymouth
Rock&rsquo;s shares. Management used significant unobservable inputs to develop a range of values for the investment. It used a comparable
company approach that utilized the following valuation multiples from selected publicly traded companies: price-to-book value (range:
1.2&ndash;2.8; average: 1.7); price-to-historical earnings (range: 16.6&ndash;56.8; average: 33.4); and price-to-forward earnings estimates
(range: 10.6&ndash;29.0; average: 18.0). Management also used Plymouth Rock&rsquo;s book value and a discounted cash flow model based
on a forecasted return on equity of approximately 13% and a cost of capital of approximately 12%. The average of these values was then
discounted for lack of marketability and control of the Plymouth Rock shares. Management considered a discount range of 25% to 35%, a
range management believes market participants would apply. An independent valuation of Plymouth Rock&rsquo;s shares obtained by Plymouth
Rock was also considered. Management presented and discussed the above information with the Corporation&rsquo;s directors, who approved
the value for the investment.</P>
