Compensation Committee reviews the risk profile of the components of the executive compensation program, including the performance objectives and target levels used in connection with incentive awards, and considers the risks an executive officer might be incentivized to take with respect to such components with special attention given to establishing a mix among these components that does not encourage excessive risk taking. The Corporate Governance Committee contributes to the Company’s risk oversight process by reviewing the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and Board committee charters at least annually to ensure that they continue to comply with any applicable laws, regulations, and stock exchange or other listing standards, as each are subject to change from time to time. The Corporate Governance Committee also oversees the director nomination process, the overall Board reporting structure and the operations of the individual committees, in addition to advising the Board with respect to environmental and social risks. Code of Ethics, Code of Conduct and Corporate Governance Principles The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to all employees. Annually, directors and all employees certify that they have read and complied with our Code of Ethics. The Company has also adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Code and Guidelines are available on the Company’s website at www.AFGinc.com, under “Leadership and Governance.” A printed copy of the Code and Guidelines may be obtained by shareholders upon written request to the Secretary at the address set forth under “Board Communications” in the Proxy Statement Summary. We intend to satisfy any disclosure requirements regarding any amendments to, or waivers from, provisions of the Code by posting such information on our website as promptly as practicable, as may be required by applicable SEC and NYSE rules. Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Creating long-term value for shareholders is AFG’s highest business objective, and we are committed to doing so in a responsible manner. This commitment starts with recognizing that many of our business decisions affect people and organizations in the larger community. Under its charter, the Corporate Governance Committee advises the Board with respect to stewardship issues to assist in the development and refinement of the Company’s strategies and policies in those areas. We focus our corporate responsibility and sustainability strategies in four primary areas where AFG believes it can achieve the most direct and substantial results:

| Operating our business with integrity and managing financial risk |     | Giving             
 back to our        
 communities        
 and promoting      
 social opportunity |     | Creating a welcoming                           
 and rewarding place to work and build a career |     | Managing environmental risk and operating sustainably |
