statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and therefore do not include all information and footnotes to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States (&#147;GAAP&#148;). The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein

December&nbsp;31, 2009 we apply the &#147;two-class method&#148; in computing basic and diluted earnings per share. ASC Topic 260 clarifies that unvested share-based payment awards with a right to receive nonforfeitable dividends are participating
securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the two-class method, net income is allocated between common stock and any securities other than common
stock that are eligible to participate in dividends with common stock. Our redeemable preferred stock and unvested restricted stock qualified as &#147;participating securities&#148; under ASC Topic 260 in 2009. With redemption of the Series C and D
preferred shares in December 2009, the two-class method is no longer required in 2010 for redeemable preferred stock. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The
two-class method allocates net income available to common shareholders and participating securities to the extent that each security shares in earnings as if all earnings for the period had been distributed. The amount of earnings allocable to
common shareholders is divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Participating securities that are convertible into common stock are included in the computation of basic earnings per share if the effect is
dilutive. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Diluted earnings per share includes potential common shares assumed issued under the &#147;treasury stock
method,&#148; which reflects the potential dilution that would occur if any outstanding options are exercised. Diluted earnings per share also includes the &#147;if converted&#148; method for participating securities if the effect is dilutive. The
two-class method of calculating diluted earnings per share is used whether the &#147;if converted&#148; result is dilutive or anti-dilutive. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

policy described above. We determined that the unrealized losses in the fixed maturity securities portfolio related primarily to changes in market interest rates since the date of purchase, current conditions in the capital markets and the impact of
those conditions on market liquidity and prices generally, and the transfer of the investments from the available-for-sale classification to the held-to-maturity classification in January 2004. We expect to recover the carrying value of these
securities since management does not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. In addition, none of the unrealized losses on debt
securities are considered credit losses. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We determined that the unrealized loss on the equity securities related primarily to

impairment related to a credit loss or impairments on securities is recognized in earnings and reflected as a reduction in the cost basis of the security. The amount of the other-than-temporary impairment on debt securities related to other factors
is recorded as a component of stockholders&#146; equity in other comprehensive income or loss with no change to the cost basis of the security. For equity securities, the amount of the other-than-temporary impairment due to the extent and duration
that fair values are below cost is recognized in earnings and reflected as a reduction in the cost basis of the security. The adoption of ASC Topic 320 did not have a material impact on the Company&#146;s consolidated financial condition or results

assets and liabilities, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820 for all

on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC Topic 820, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard defines fair value, describes three
levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Fair value is
defined in ASC Topic 820 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is the price to sell an asset or transfer a
liability and, therefore, represents an exit price, not an entry price. Fair value is the exit price in the principal market (or, if lacking a principal market, the most advantageous market) in which the reporting entity would transact. Fair value
is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and, as such, is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The exit price objective of a fair value measurement
applies regardless of the reporting entity&#146;s intent and/or ability to sell the asset or transfer the liability at the measurement date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses
valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present value amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an
asset, also known as current replacement cost. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value are to be consistently applied. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">AMERISAFE is a holding company that markets and underwrites workers&#146; compensation insurance through its insurance subsidiaries.
Workers&#146; compensation insurance covers statutorily prescribed benefits that employers are obligated to provide to their employees who are injured in the course and scope of their employment. Our business strategy is focused on providing this
coverage to small to mid-sized employers engaged in hazardous industries, principally construction, trucking and agriculture. Employers engaged in hazardous industries pay substantially higher than average rates for workers&#146; compensation
insurance compared to employers in other industries, as measured per payroll dollar. The higher premium rates are due to the nature of the work performed and the inherent workplace danger of our target employers. Hazardous industry employers also
tend to have less frequent but more severe claims as compared to employers in other industries due to the nature of their businesses. We provide proactive safety reviews of employers&#146; workplaces. These safety reviews are a vital component of
our underwriting process and also promote safer workplaces. We utilize intensive claims management practices that we believe permit us to reduce the overall cost of our claims. In addition, our audit services ensure that our policyholders pay the
appropriate premiums required under the terms of their policies and enable us to monitor payroll patterns or aberrations that cause underwriting, safety or fraud concerns. We believe that the higher premiums typically paid by our policyholders,
together with our disciplined underwriting and safety, claims and audit services, provide us with the opportunity to earn attractive returns for our shareholders. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We actively market our insurance in 30 states and the District of Columbia through independent agencies, as well as through our wholly
owned insurance agency subsidiary. We are also licensed in an additional 17 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Critical Accounting
Policies </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">It is important to understand our accounting policies in order to understand our financial statements. Management
considers some of these policies to be critically important to the presentation of our financial results because they require us to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of our assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosures. Some of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and, consequently, actual results in future periods might differ from these estimates. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Management believes that the most critical accounting policies relate to the reporting of reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses,
including losses that have occurred but have not been reported prior to the reporting date, amounts recoverable from reinsurers, assessments, deferred policy acquisition costs, deferred income taxes, the impairment of investment securities and
share-based compensation. These critical accounting policies are more fully described in Item&nbsp;7, &#147;Management&#146;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations&#148; of Part II to our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2009. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

of open claims at June&nbsp;30, 2009. Efforts continue to close prior year claims, especially in those circumstances where the claim could be settled for less than the corresponding case reserve amount (which amount represents the estimated ultimate
cost to settle the claim, undiscounted). Management believes that these efforts have contributed, in part, to the favorable prior accident year development recorded for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2010. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">At June&nbsp;30, 2010, our case incurred amounts for certain accident years, particularly 2004, 2006 and 2007, have not developed to the
degree management previously expected. The assumptions we used in establishing our reserves for these accident years were based on our 24 years of historical claims data. However, as of June&nbsp;30, 2010, actual results for certain accident years
have been better than our assumptions would have predicted. We do not presently intend to modify our assumptions for establishing reserves in light of these recent results for the 2004, 2006 and 2007 accident years. However, if actual results for
current and future accident years are consistent with, or better than, our results in these recent accident years, our historical claims data will reflect this change and, over time, will impact the reserves we establish for future claims.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our reserves for loss and loss adjustment expenses are inherently uncertain and our focus on providing workers&#146;
compensation insurance to employers engaged in hazardous industries results in our receiving relatively fewer but more severe claims than many other workers&#146; compensation insurance companies. As a result of this focus on higher severity, lower
frequency business, our reserve for loss and loss adjustment expenses may have greater volatility than other workers&#146; compensation insurance companies. For additional information, see &#147;Business&#151;Loss Reserves&#148; in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2009. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:18px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>
