stated, &#147;We believe we are at an inflection point in the current pricing cycle. The recent results for the workers&#146; compensation line have dampened carrier interest. Nationally, loss experience continues at levels higher than historical
averages, reflecting the impact of multi-year loss costs and rate reductions coupled with our nation&#146;s difficult economic circumstances. At the same time, demand for the product is rising.&#148; </FONT></P>

swing in our audit premiums.&nbsp;In terms of losses, our experience over the past two accident years has been disappointing; that experience has deteriorated as a result of increasing claims duration and what we believe to be deficient loss costs.
In the meantime, we remain focused on our underwriting standards, efficient claims handling and aggressive expense management, which this quarter produced a 98.3% combined ratio.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
