Eastern Insurance Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited, dollars in thousands except share and per share data)

1. Background and
Nature of Operations

Eastern Insurance Holdings, Inc. (EIHI) is an insurance holding company offering workers
compensation and reinsurance products through its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Global Alliance Holdings, Ltd. (Global Alliance), Eastern Alliance Insurance Company (Eastern Alliance), Allied Eastern
Indemnity Company (Allied Eastern), Eastern Advantage Assurance Company (Eastern Advantage), Employers Security Insurance Company (Employers Security), Employers Alliance, Inc. (Employers Alliance),
Eastern Re Ltd., SPC (Eastern Re), and Eastern Services Corporation (Eastern Services), collectively referred to as the Company.

The Company currently operates in three segments: workers compensation insurance, segregated portfolio cell reinsurance, and corporate/other.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The
accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments, being normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for an
interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for an entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2010 included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2011.

All inter-company transactions and related account balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation
of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of reported assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include reserves for unpaid
losses and loss adjustment expenses (LAE), earned but unbilled premium, deferred acquisition costs, return premiums under reinsurance contracts, and current and deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Deferred Acquisition Costs

In October 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance related to the accounting for costs related to the acquisition or renewal of insurance contracts. The new guidance provides specific types of costs that should be capitalized in connection with
the acquisition or renewal of insurance contracts. Those costs include incremental direct costs of contract acquisition incurred in connection with independent third parties and certain costs related to activities performed by the insurer for the
contract, including underwriting, policy issuance and processing, medical and inspection, and sales force contract selling. Under the new guidance, costs incurred by an entity related to unsuccessful acquisition or renewal efforts must be charged to
expense as incurred. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011 and is to be applied prospectively. Retrospective application to all prior periods upon the
date of adoption is permitted, but not required. Early adoption is permitted but only at the beginning of an entitys annual reporting period. The Company currently capitalizes and defers commissions and related expenses, premium taxes and
certain underwriting personnel salaries. The Company expects to adopt this new

guidance effective January 1, 2012 and apply it retrospectively to prior periods for purposes of consistency across all periods presented. Upon adoption, the Company expects to reduce the
amount of acquisition costs capitalized related to certain underwriting personnel salaries to give effect to unsuccessful acquisition or renewal activities. Management does not expect the adoption of the new guidance to have a material effect on the
Companys financial condition or results of operations.

3. Discontinued Operations

On December 9, 2010, EIHI completed the sale of Eastern Atlantic RE (Atlantic RE). Atlantic RE was a Cayman Islands reinsurance company
formed for the purpose of transferring certain assets and liabilities related to EIHIs run-off specialty reinsurance segment as part of the sale. As a result of the sale, the results of operations for the portion of the run-off specialty
reinsurance segment that was transferred to Atlantic RE have been reflected as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The portion of the run-off specialty reinsurance segment that was not sold has been reclassified
to the corporate/other segment. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the run-off specialty reinsurance segment reported net premiums earned and revenue of $6 and $496, respectively. The run-off specialty reinsurance segment reported
income before income taxes of $422 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

On June 21, 2010, EIHI completed the sale of Eastern
Life and Health Insurance Company (Eastern Life). As a result of the sale, Eastern Lifes operations, which were reported as the group benefits insurance segment, have been reflected as discontinued operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2010. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the group benefits insurance segment reported net premiums earned and revenue of $9,176 and $9,872, respectively. The group benefits insurance segment reported income before
income taxes of $791 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

4. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the respective period.
Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period, including dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the period. For the three months ended
March 31, 2011 and 2010, there were 955,452 and 814,879 stock options and restricted stock awards , respectively, that were not included in the Companys earnings per share calculation because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.

5. Fair Value Measurements

The Companys assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are segregated between those assets and
liabilities that are valued based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, which the reporting entity can access at the measurement date (Level 1), direct or indirect observable inputs other than Level 1
quoted prices (Level 2), or unobservable inputs to the extent that observable inputs are not available (Level 3).

The following is a
description of the Companys categorization of the inputs used in the recurring fair value measurements of its financial assets included in its consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2011:

Level 1  Represents financial assets whose fair value is determined based upon observable unadjusted quoted market prices for
identical financial assets in active markets that the Company has the ability to access. An example of a Level 1 input utilized to measure fair value includes the closing price of one share of common stock on an active exchange market. The Company
considers U.S. Treasuries and equity securities as Level 1 assets.

Level 2  Represents financial assets whose fair
value is determined based upon: quoted market prices for similar assets in active markets; quoted market prices for identical assets in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset such as interest rates
or yield curves; or other inputs derived principally from or corroborated from other observable market information. An example of a Level 2 input utilized to measure fair value, specifically for the Companys fixed income portfolio, is
matrix pricing. Matrix pricing relies on observable inputs from active markets other than quoted market prices including, but not limited to, benchmark securities and yields, latest reported trades, quotes from brokers or
dealers, issuer spreads, bids, offers, and other relevant reference data to determine fair value. Matrix pricing is used to measure the fair value of fixed income securities where obtaining individual quoted market prices is impractical.
The Company considers U.S. Government agencies, municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, and convertible bonds as Level 2 assets.

Level 3  Represents financial assets whose fair value is determined based upon inputs that are unobservable, including the
Companys own determinations of the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing the asset.

The estimated fair values of the Companys investments in fixed income securities, convertible bonds, and equity
securities are based on prices provided by an independent, nationally recognized pricing service. Approximately 99.0% of the Companys fixed income and equity security prices are obtained from the independent pricing service. The prices
provided by the independent pricing service are based on quoted market prices, when available, non-binding broker quotes, or matrix pricing. The independent pricing service provides a single price or quote per security and the Company does not
adjust security prices. The Company obtains an understanding of the methods, models and inputs, used by the independent pricing service, and has controls in place to validate that amounts provided represent current exit values. The Companys
controls include, but are not limited to, initial and ongoing evaluation of the methodologies used by the independent pricing service as well as comparing the fair value estimates to the Companys knowledge of the current market. Fixed income
securities include U.S. Treasuries, agencies backed by the U.S. Government, municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities, and corporate bonds.

The Companys fixed income securities and convertible bonds consist primarily of publicly traded securities for which there are observable inputs
and/or broker quotes. Most fixed income security prices provided by the independent pricing service are based on observable inputs and, therefore, are classified as Level 2 securities. The Company does not hold any fixed income securities, for which
pricing was based on significant unobservable inputs; therefore, the Company has not classified any of its fixed income securities as Level 3 securities.

The Companys equity securities consist primarily of mutual fund instruments for which there is an active market and quoted market prices; therefore, the Company has classified its mutual fund
investments as Level 1 securities. The Company holds an investment in an international equity fund that is not traded on an active exchange market and, therefore, is considered a Level 2 security. Approximately 94.1% of the international equity
funds underlying investments were considered Level 1 securities as of December 31, 2010, the most recent date for which the Company has audited financial statements of the fund.

##### Table of Contents

Other long-term investments include the Companys interest in various limited partnerships, including a
low volatility multi-strategy fund of funds, two natural resource limited partnerships, a structured finance opportunity fund, an open-ended investment fund and a real estate limited partnership. The Company records its investment in the limited
partnerships using the equity method. The carrying value of the Companys limited partnership investments are based on the Companys allocable share of the limited partnerships net asset value. Changes in the Companys
investments are based on statements received directly from the limited partnership and/or the limited partnerships administrator. The estimated fair values of the underlying investments in the limited partnerships may be based on Level 1,
Level 2, or Level 3 inputs, or a combination thereof.

Note: The Company has excluded the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segments gross unrealized losses from the
above table because changes in the estimated fair value of the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segments fixed income and equity securities inures to the segregated portfolio cell dividend participant and, accordingly, is included in the
segregated portfolio cell dividend payable and the related segregated portfolio dividend expense in the Companys consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of operations, respectively. Management believes the exclusion of the
segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment from this disclosure provides a more transparent understanding of gross unrealized losses in the Companys fixed income and equity security portfolios that could impact its consolidated financial
position or results of operations.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company held 52 fixed income securities with gross unrealized losses totaling $308.
Management has evaluated the unrealized losses related to those fixed income securities and determined that they are primarily due to the current liquidity issues in the fixed income markets or to a fluctuation in interest rates and not to credit
issues of the issuer or the underlying assets in the case of asset-backed securities. The Company does not intend to sell the fixed income securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the fixed income
securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity; therefore, management does not consider the fixed income securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of March 31, 2011.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company held one equity security with a gross unrealized loss of $4.

There were no other-than-temporary impairments for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company recognized other-than-temporary impairments of
$15 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

The Companys results of operations include favorable development in its segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment
of $699 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to favorable development of $733 for the same period in 2010. The favorable development primarily reflects the impact of claim settlements for amounts at, or less than, previously
established case and IBNR reserves.

8. Segment Information

The Company currently operates in three business segments. Prior to the sale of Atlantic RE and Eastern Life, the Companys operations included a run-off specialty reinsurance segment and a group
benefits insurance segment. The components of the run-off specialty reinsurance segment that were not transferred to Atlantic RE have been included in the corporate/other segment for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

Workers Compensation Insurance

The Company offers traditional workers compensation insurance coverage to employers, primarily in the Mid-Atlantic, Southeast and Midwest regions of
the continental United States. The Companys workers compensation products include guaranteed cost policies, policyholder dividend policies, retrospectively-rated policies and deductible policies.

Segregated Portfolio Cell Reinsurance

The Company offers alternative market workers compensation solutions to individual companies, groups and associations (referred to as
segregated portfolio cell dividend participants) through the creation of segregated portfolio cells. The segregated portfolio cells are segregated pools of assets that function as insurance companies within an insurance company. The pool
of assets and associated liabilities of each segregated portfolio cell are solely for the benefit of the segregated portfolio cell dividend participants, and the pool of assets of one segregated portfolio cell are statutorily protected from the
creditors of the others. This permits the Company to provide customers with a turn-key alternative markets solution that includes program design, fronting, claims administration, risk management, segregated portfolio cell rental, asset management
and segregated portfolio management services. The Company outsources the asset management and segregated portfolio cell management services to a third party. The segregated portfolio cell structure provides dividend participants the opportunity to
share in both underwriting profit and investment income derived from their respective segregated portfolio cells financial results. The segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment generated fee revenue to the Companys workers
compensation insurance and corporate/other segments totaling approximately $1,661 and $1,411 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

Corporate/Other

The corporate/other segment primarily includes the expenses of the holding company, the third party administration activities of the Company, and the non-segregated portfolio cell reinsurance results of
operations of Eastern Re, as well as certain eliminations necessary to reconcile the segment information to the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The corporate/other segment also includes the Companys 10%
interest in a segregated portfolio cell with an unaffiliated primary carrier that writes insurance coverage for sprinkler contractors. The Company cancelled the non-segregated portfolio cell reinsurance contracts in 1999 on a run-off basis and
continues to have exposure for outstanding claims as of March 31, 2011. The Company non-renewed the contract for its 10% interest in the segregated portfolio cell on a run-off basis effective April 1, 2009.

The following table represents the segment results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 (unaudited, in thousands):

Overview

The Company reported net income from continuing operations of $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to net income of $945,000 for the same period in 2010. The combined
ratio totaled 97.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to a combined ratio of 102.4% for the same period in 2010.

The
improvement in the consolidated combined ratio primarily reflects growth in net earned premium and a reduction in the calendar period loss ratio from 67.7% in 2010 to 64.7% in 2011. The increase in net earned premium primarily reflects new business
writings, an increase in the renewal retention rate and renewal rate increases, as well as a decrease in premium returned to customers as a result of premium audits. The decrease in the calendar period loss ratio primarily reflects a decrease in the
accident period loss ratio in the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment. The 2010 accident period loss ratio in the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment was negatively impacted by an increase in reported claims in certain segregated
portfolio cells.

Principal Revenue and Expense Items

The Company derives its revenue primarily from net premiums earned, including assumed premiums earned, net investment income and net realized investment gains.

Direct and net premiums written. Direct premiums written is the sum of both direct premiums and assumed premiums before the effect of ceded
reinsurance. Direct premiums written include all premiums billed during a specific policy period. Net premiums written is the difference between direct premiums written and premiums ceded or paid to reinsurers (ceded premiums written). In the
segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment, assumed premiums are derived from insurance contracts written by the Company and ceded to the segregated portfolio cells.

Net premiums earned.Net premiums earned are the earned portion of the Companys net premiums written. Premiums are earned over the term of the related policies. At the end of each accounting
period, the portion of the premiums that are not yet earned are included in unearned premiums and are realized as revenue in subsequent periods over the remaining term of the policy. The Companys workers compensation policies typically
have a term of twelve months. Workers compensation premiums are determined based upon the payroll of the insured, the applicable premium rates and, where applicable, an experience based modification factor. An audit of the
policyholders records is conducted after policy expiration, to make a final determination of applicable premiums. Included with net premiums earned is an estimate for earned but unbilled final audit premiums. The Company can estimate earned
but unbilled premiums because it keeps track, by policy, of how much additional premium is billed in final audit invoices as a percentage to estimate the probable additional amount that it has earned but not yet billed as of the balance sheet date.

Net investment income and realized gains and losses on investments. The Company invests its surplus and the funds supporting its
insurance liabilities (including unearned premiums and unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses) in cash, cash equivalents, fixed income securities, convertible bonds, equity securities, and other long-term investments. Investment income includes
interest earned on invested assets, including the impact of premium amortization and discount accretion. Realized gains and losses on invested assets are reported separately from net investment income. The Company recognizes realized gains when
invested assets are sold for an amount greater than their cost or amortized cost (in the case of fixed income securities) and recognizes realized losses when investment securities are written down as a result of an other than temporary impairment or
sold for an amount less than their cost or amortized cost. Realized gains and losses also include the change in fair value of convertible bonds.

Other revenue. Other revenue includes claim administration, risk management, and cell rental fees earned. There are other revenue items that the Company recognizes on a segmental basis that are
eliminated in consolidation. Such items consist primarily of fees paid by the segregated portfolio cells to other entities within the consolidated group. The segregated portfolio cells recognize an expense for such items (included as part of its
ceding commission) and a corresponding revenue item is recognized by the affiliate providing the service. For segment reporting purposes, such revenue items primarily include claims administration, risk management, and cell rental fees. Fronting
fees are included in acquisition and other underwriting expenses as an offset to the direct costs incurred. For segment reporting purposes, such fees are recognized ratably over the period in which the service is provided, which generally
corresponds to the earned portion of net premiums written for the underlying policies.

##### Table of Contents

The Companys expenses consist primarily of losses and LAE, acquisition and other underwriting
expenses, policyholder dividends, other expenses, and income taxes:

Losses and LAE.Losses and LAE represent the largest expense item
and include: (1) claim payments made, (2) estimates for future claim payments and changes in those estimates for prior periods, and (3) costs associated with investigating, defending and adjusting claims.

Acquisition and other underwriting expenses.In the workers compensation insurance segment, expenses incurred to underwrite risks are
referred to as acquisition and other underwriting expenses, which consist of commissions, premium taxes and fees and other underwriting expenses incurred in acquiring, writing and administering the Companys business. In the segregated
portfolio cell reinsurance and run-off specialty reinsurance segments, acquisition and other underwriting expenses consist of ceding commissions earned under the respective reinsurance agreements. Ceding commissions received are netted against
acquisition and other underwriting expenses.

Other expenses.Other expenses consist of general administrative expenses such as
salaries, rent, office supplies, depreciation and all other operating expenses not otherwise classified separately. Other expenses also include interest expense related primarily to the Companys loan payable.

Policyholder dividend expense.Policyholder dividends represent the amount of dividends incurred during the period that are expected to be
returned to policyholders. The dividend expense is based on the loss experience of the underlying workers compensation insurance policy.

Income tax expense. EIHI and certain of its subsidiaries pay federal, state and local income taxes. Income tax expense includes an amount for both
current and deferred income taxes. Current income tax expense includes an amount for the Companys current year federal income tax liability and any adjustments related to differences between the prior year federal income tax estimate and the
actual income tax expense reported in the tax return. Deferred tax expense represents the change in the Companys net deferred tax asset, exclusive of the tax effect related to changes in unrealized gains and losses in the Companys
investment portfolio and changes in the unrecognized amounts related to the Companys benefit plan liabilities.

Key Financial
Measures

The Company evaluates its insurance operations by monitoring certain key measures of growth and profitability. The Company
measures growth by monitoring changes in direct premiums written and net premiums written. The Company measures underwriting profitability by examining loss, expense and combined ratios. On a segmental basis, the Company measures a segments
operating results by examining net income, diluted earnings per share, and return on average equity.

Loss ratio.The loss ratio is the
ratio (expressed as a percentage) of losses and LAE incurred to net premiums earned and measures the underwriting profitability of a companys insurance business. The Company measures the loss ratio on an accident year and calendar year loss
basis to measure underwriting profitability. An accident year loss ratio measures losses and LAE for insured events occurring in a particular year, regardless of when they are reported, as a percentage of net premiums earned during that year. A
calendar year loss ratio measures losses and LAE for insured events occurring during a particular year and the change in loss reserves from prior accident years as a percentage of net premiums earned during that year.

Expense ratio. The expense ratio is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the sum of the acquisition and other underwriting expenses and other
expenses to net premiums earned and measures the Companys operational efficiency in producing, underwriting and administering its insurance business.

Policyholder dividend expense ratio.The policyholder dividend expense ratio is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of policyholder dividend expense to net premiums earned and measures the impact
of the Companys policyholder dividend policies on its workers compensation segment.

Combined ratio.The combined ratio is
the sum of the loss ratio, expense ratio and policyholder dividend expense ratio and measures the Companys overall underwriting profit. If the combined ratio is below 100%, the Company is making an underwriting profit. If the Companys
combined ratio is at or above 100%, the Company is not profitable without investment income and may not be profitable if investment income is insufficient.

Net income, diluted earnings per share, and return on average equity.The Company uses net income and diluted earnings per share to measure its profits and return on average equity to measure its
effectiveness in utilizing shareholders equity to generate net income. In determining return on average equity for a given year, net income is divided by the average of the beginning and ending shareholders equity for that year.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires both the use of estimates and judgment relative to the application of
appropriate accounting policies. The Company is required to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. The Company evaluates these estimates
and assumptions on an on-going basis based on historical developments, market conditions, industry trends and other information that is believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There can be no assurance that actual results will conform to
the estimates and assumptions and that reported results of operations will not be materially adversely affected by the need to make accounting adjustments to reflect changes in these estimates and assumptions from time to time. The Company believes
the following policies are the most sensitive to estimates and judgments.

Reserves for Unpaid Losses and LAE

The Company establishes reserves for unpaid losses and LAE for its workers compensation, segregated portfolio cell reinsurance and run-off specialty
reinsurance products, which are estimates of future payments of reported and unreported claims for losses and related expenses. The adequacy of the Companys reserves for unpaid losses and LAE are inherently uncertain because the ultimate
amount that the Company may pay under many of the claims incurred as of the balance sheet date will not be known for many years. Establishing reserves continues to be a complex and imprecise process, requiring the use of informed estimates and
judgments. The Companys estimates and judgments may be revised as additional experience and other data becomes available and are reviewed, as new or improved methodologies are developed, or as current laws change. Any such revisions could
result in future changes in estimates of losses or reinsurance recoverable and would be reflected in the Companys results of operations in the period in which the estimates are changed. Estimating the ultimate claims liability is necessarily a
complex and judgmental process inasmuch as the amounts are based on managements informed estimates and judgments using data currently available. If ultimate losses, net of reinsurance, prove to be substantially higher than the amounts recorded
as of March 31, 2011, the related adjustments could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

The Company discounts its workers compensation reserves, using a discount rate of approximately 3.0%. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Companys reserves for unpaid
losses and LAE were reduced by $5.0 million and $4.6 million, respectively, related to the effects of discounting.

The Companys
reserves for unpaid losses and LAE in its workers compensation insurance, segregated portfolio cell reinsurance and corporate/other segments as of March 31, 2011 (unaudited) and December 31, 2010 are summarized below (in thousands):

Other Than Temporary Investment Impairments

Unrealized investment gains or losses on investments carried at fair value, net of applicable income taxes, are reflected directly in shareholders equity as a component of comprehensive income
(loss) and, accordingly, have no effect on net income. When, in the opinion of management, a decline in the fair value of an investment below its cost or amortized cost is considered to be other-than-temporary, such investment is written
down to its fair value. The amount written down is recorded in earnings as a realized loss on investments. Generally, the determination of other-than-temporary impairment includes, in addition to other relevant factors, a presumption that if the
market value is below cost by a significant amount for a period of time, a write down is necessary. Notwithstanding this presumption, the determination of other-than-temporary impairment requires judgment about future prospects for an investment and
is therefore a matter of inherent uncertainty. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recognized other-than-temporary impairments of $0, compared to $15,000 for the same period in 2010. As of March 31, 2011, the Company
held securities with gross unrealized losses of $312,000, excluding those securities in the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment, of which $0 were in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. Adverse investment market conditions,
poor operating results of underlying issuers, or the passage of time with respect to equity securities in an unrealized loss position, could result in impairment charges in the future. The Company generally applies the following standards in
determining whether the decline in fair value of an investment is other-than-temporary:

Equity securities. An equity security is
considered impaired when one of the following conditions exist: 1) an equity securitys market value is less than 80.0% of its cost for a continuous period of six months, 2) an equitys securitys market value is less than 50.0% of
its cost, regardless of the amount of time the securitys market value has been below cost, and 3) an equity securitys market value has been less than cost for a continuous period of 12 months, regardless of the magnitude of the decline
in market value. Equity securities that are in an unrealized loss position, but do not meet the above quantitative thresholds, are evaluated to determine if the decline in market value is other than temporary.

The Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairments related to its equity securities for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Fixed income securities. A fixed income security is considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired when the securitys fair
value is less than its amortized cost basis and 1) the Company intends to sell the security, 2) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of the securitys amortized cost basis, or 3) the
Company believes it will be unable to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security (i.e., a credit loss has occurred). When the Company determines a credit loss has been incurred, but the Company does not intend to sell the security and
it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of the securitys amortized cost basis, the portion of the other-than-temporary impairment that is credit related is recorded as a realized
loss in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), and the portion of the other-than-temporary impairment that is not credit related is included in other comprehensive income (loss). A fixed income security is
reviewed for potential credit loss if any of the following situations occur:



| |  |  | A review of the financial condition and prospects of the issuer indicates that the security should be evaluated;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Moodys or Standard & Poors rate the security below investment grade; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The security has a market value below 80.0% of amortized cost due to deterioration in credit quality.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairments related to its fixed income securities
for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Limited partnerships.A limited partnership investment is generally written down if
the Company is unable to hold or otherwise intends to sell its interest in the limited partnership at a loss, or if management has received information that suggests the Company will be unable to recover its original investment in the limited
partnership. The amount written down is recorded in the change in equity interest in other long-term investments in the consolidated statement of operations. There were no other-than-temporary impairments related to the Companys limited
partnership interests for the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010.

Goodwill

In accordance with the requirements of ASC 350, Intangibles  Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at the
reporting unit level, which is at the operating segment level or one level below an operating segment. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Goodwill is required to be tested for
impairment annually and between annual tests if events or circumstances change, such as adverse changes in the business climate, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value.

Goodwill is assigned to one or more reporting units at the date of acquisition. The Company has allocated 100% of the goodwill recorded on its
consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2011 to its workers compensation insurance segment. The goodwill impairment test, performed as of September 30 of each year, is a two-step test. The first step identifies whether there is
potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to the carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the second step of the impairment test is required to measure
the amount of any impairment loss.

We did not evaluate goodwill for impairment as of March 31, 2011 as no events occurred or
circumstances changed that would have more likely than not reduced the fair value of the workers compensation insurance segment below its carrying amount since September 30, 2010.

In the event the operating results of the Companys workers compensation insurance segment were to be adversely impacted by a significant loss of business or higher than expected losses and
LAE, managements internal forecast may need to be re-evaluated, which could result in a fair value that is less than the carrying value of the workers compensation insurance segment and the need to recognize a goodwill impairment.

Deferred Income Taxes

The
temporary differences between the tax and book bases of assets and liabilities are recorded as deferred income taxes. Management evaluates the recoverability of the net deferred tax asset based on historical trends of generating taxable income or
losses, as well as expectations of future taxable income or loss. As of March 31, 2011, the Company recorded a net deferred tax asset of $629,000. Management expects that the net deferred tax asset is fully recoverable. If this assumption were
to change, any amount of the net deferred tax asset that the Company could not expect to recover would be provided for as an allowance and would be reflected as an increase in income tax expense in the period in which it was established.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company has not recognized any future tax benefit related to its foreign operations at Eastern Re. The unrecognized tax
benefit, which represents the excess of the tax basis over the amount for financial reporting (i.e., outside basis difference) of Eastern Re, was $11,433 as of March 31, 2011. The outside basis difference primarily arises from losses at Eastern Re
recognized for financial statement purposes, which have not yet been recognized for tax purposes. Management presently believes that the Company will not be able to recognize these tax benefits in the foreseeable future and, therefore, has not
recognized the future tax benefits as of March 31, 2011.

Reinsurance Recoverables

Amounts recoverable from the Company reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the claim liability associated with the reinsured policy.
Amounts paid for reinsurance contracts are expensed over the contract period during which insured events are covered by the reinsurance contracts. Reinsurance balances recoverable on paid and unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses are reported
separately as assets, instead of being netted with the appropriate liabilities, because reinsurance does not relieve the Company of its legal liability to its policyholders. Reinsurance balances recoverable are subject to credit risk associated with
the particular reinsurer. Additionally, the same uncertainties associated with estimating unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses affect the estimates for the ceded portion of these liabilities. The Company continually monitors the financial
condition of its reinsurers.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Deferred Acquisition Costs

In October 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance related to the accounting for costs related to the acquisition or renewal of insurance contracts. The new guidance provides specific types of costs that should be capitalized in connection with
the acquisition or renewal of insurance contracts. Those costs include incremental direct costs of contract acquisition incurred in connection with independent third parties and certain costs related to activities performed by the insurer for the
contract, including underwriting, policy issuance and processing, medical and inspection, and sales force contract selling. Under the new guidance, costs incurred by an entity related to unsuccessful acquisition or renewal efforts must be charged to
expense as incurred. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011 and is to be applied prospectively. Retrospective application to all prior periods upon the
date of adoption is permitted, but not required. Early adoption is permitted but only at the beginning of an entitys annual reporting period. The Company currently capitalizes and defers commissions and related expenses, premium taxes and
certain underwriting personnel salaries. The Company expects to adopt this new guidance effective January 1, 2012 and apply it retrospectively to prior periods for purposes of consistency across all periods presented. Upon adoption, the Company
expects to reduce the amount of acquisition costs capitalized related to certain underwriting personnel salaries to give effect to unsuccessful acquisition or renewal activities. Management does not expect the adoption of the new guidance to have a
material effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.

The workers compensation insurance ratios were as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010:



|                              |  |      |      |   |      |  |      |  
|----------------------------- |  | ---- | ---- | - | ---- |  | ---- | -
|                              |  | 2011 |      |   | 2010 | 
|Loss and LAE ratio            |  |      | 66.3 | % |      |  | 66.0 | %
|Expense ratio                 |  |      | 24.6 | % |      |  | 28.2 | %
|Policyholders dividend ratio |  |      | 1.3  | % |      |  | 0.9  | %
|                              |  |      |      |   |      |  |      |  
|Combined ratio                |  |      | 92.2 | % |      |  | 95.1 | %
|                              |  |      |      |   |      |  |      |  

Premiums

The increase in direct premiums written primarily reflects new business sales of $9.4 million, an increase in the renewal retention rate, a decrease in
return audit premium to customers, and renewal rate increases of 3.9%. The renewal retention rate increased from 88.0% in 2010 to 90.4% in 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company returned premium to customers totaling
$134,000 in the aggregate related to its traditional and alternative market books of business, compared to $590,000 of return premium to customers for the same period in 2010, a difference of $456,000. The Company recognized additional premium from
customers of $272,000 related to its traditional book of business for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $382,000 of return premium to customers for the same period in 2010, a difference of $654,000.

Net Investment Income

Net investment
income was consistent from 2010 to 2011. The average yield on the fixed income portfolio was 3.34% as of March 31, 2011, compared to 3.46% as of March 31, 2010.

Net Realized Investment Losses

The increase in net realized investment gains primarily
reflects an increase in the estimated fair value of the Companys convertible bond portfolio.

Losses and LAE

The increase in the calendar period loss and LAE ratio primarily reflects an increase in the accident period loss ratio from 2010 to 2011, partially offset by additional audit premium in 2011, compared to
return audit premium in 2010. The calendar period loss and LAE ratio was impacted by additional audit premium to the Company of $272,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, which decreased the 2011 loss and LAE ratio by 0.8 points
compared to return audit premium to policyholders of $382,000 for the same period in 2010, which increased the 2010 loss and LAE ratio by 1.3 points. There was no prior year reserve development recognized in 2011 or 2010.

Acquisition and Other Underwriting Expenses

The acquisition and other underwriting expense ratio decreased from 10.1% in 2010 to 8.9% in 2011. The decrease primarily reflects the improvement in audit premium from 2010 to 2011 and a decrease in the
Security Fund accrual. During the first quarter of 2011, management received financial information from the Security Fund that reported a fund balance in excess of the $500 million minimum fund balance. Based on the fund balance, management
determined that an assessment based on 2011 premium is not probable and, therefore, a liability related to the Security Fund was not recorded as of March 31, 2011. If the financial condition of the Security Fund were to deteriorate
significantly, a liability may be recorded in future periods.

Other Expenses

The other expense ratio decreased from 18.0% in 2010 to 15.7% in 2011. The decrease primarily reflects the impact of the increase in net premiums earned.

Policyholder Dividends

The increase in
the policyholder dividend expense reflects the loss experience of dividend paying policies. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, 10.6% and 12.4%, respectively, of all policies were written on a dividend policy basis.

Tax Expense

The effective tax rate for
the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was 32.5% and 29.3%, respectively. The primary difference between the statutory rate of 35.0% and the effective tax rate primarily reflects tax-exempt income on municipal bond securities.

##### Table of Contents



|(1) | The workers compensation insurance and corporate/other segments provide services to the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment. The fees paid by the
segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment for these services are included in the revenue of the segment providing the service. The segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment records the fees associated with these services as ceding expense,
which is included in its underwriting expenses. The difference between total revenue for the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment for each period and the sum of losses and loss adjustment expenses, underwriting expenses, policyholder
dividend expenses and other expenses is accrued as a segregated portfolio dividend expense. As a result, the segregated portfolio cell reinsurance segment has no net income for the period presented in this table.

The segregated portfolio cell reinsurance ratios were as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010:



|                   |  |      |      |   |      |  |       |  
|------------------ |  | ---- | ---- | - | ---- |  | ----- | -

|Expense ratio      |  |      | 30.9 | % |      |  | 31.6  | %
|                   |  |      |      |   |      |  |       |  
|Combined ratio     |  |      | 89.7 | % |      |  | 104.8 | %
|                   |  |      |      |   |      |  |       |  

Reinsurance Premiums Assumed

The increase in reinsurance premiums assumed primarily reflects new business sales of $1.8 million, an increase in the renewal retention rate, and renewal rate increases of 4.8%, partially offset by an
increase in return audit premium to customers. The renewal retention rate increased from 90.0% in 2010 to 91.6% in 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company returned audit premium to customers totaling $406,000, compared to
$208,000 of return audit premium to customers for the same period in 2010.

Net Investment Income

The decrease in net investment income primarily reflects a decrease in fixed income securities from 2010 to 2011.

Net Realized Investment Gains (Losses)

The decrease in net realized investment gains primarily reflects a reduction in investment sales activity from 2010 to 2011.

Losses and LAE

The decrease in the
calendar period loss and LAE ratio primarily reflects a decrease in the accident period loss ratio, partially offset by decrease in favorable loss reserve development on prior accident periods. The accident period loss ratio was 69.9% and 85.6% for
the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The 2010 accident period loss ratio reflected an increase in reported claims in certain segregated cells during the first quarter of 2010. Favorable loss reserve development totaled
$699,000 and $733,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Acquisition and Other Underwriting Expenses

The expense ratios are consistent with the contractual ceding commissions for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

Segregated Portfolio Dividend Expense

The segregated portfolio dividend expense represents the amount of net income or loss in a specific period that may be payable to the segregated portfolio dividend participants.

CORPORATE/OTHER

The
corporate/other segment reported a net loss of $776,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of $781,000 for the same period in 2010.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL POSITION

Consolidated assets totaled $335.6 million at
March 31, 2011, compared to $322.7 million at December 31, 2010. The increase in consolidated assets primarily reflects an increase in premiums receivable and deferred acquisition costs, which are higher as of March 31 as a result of
the high volume of workers compensation business with a January 1 effective date. The increase is also attributable to an increase in other assets, primarily reflecting an increase in deductible recoverables, prepaid reinsurance premiums
and prepaid premium taxes. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in federal income taxes recoverable, which primarily reflects the estimated tax liability based on the Companys results of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2011.

##### Table of Contents

Consolidated liabilities totaled $205.3 million at March 31, 2011, compared to $188.0 million at
December 31, 2010. The increase in consolidated liabilities primarily reflects an increase in unearned premiums and ceded reinsurance balances payable, which are higher as of March 31 as a result of the high volume of workers
compensation business with a January 1 effective date.

Consolidated equity totaled $130.3 million at March 31, 2011, compared to
$134.7 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease in consolidated equity primarily reflects the Companys stock buyback activity, net income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and the first quarter 2011 shareholder dividend.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Companys principal sources of funds are premiums, investment income, and proceeds from sales and maturities of investments. The Companys primary use of funds is to pay claims and operating
expenses and to purchase investments.

The Companys investment portfolio is structured so that investments mature periodically over time
in reasonable relation to current expectations of future claim payments. Currently, claim payments are made from operating cash flows, with excess cash invested in investment securities. As securities mature, management intends to invest excess cash
with appropriate durations to fund anticipated future claim payments. Management does not anticipate having to sell securities in its investment portfolios to fund claims or operating expenses. In the event the sale of securities becomes necessary,
the Company may incur losses on those sales, which would adversely affect its results of operations and could reduce net investment income.

The Company has a $2.6 million line of credit available to provide additional liquidity if needed.

Our domestic insurance subsidiaries ability to pay dividends to EIHI is limited by the insurance laws and regulations of Pennsylvania and Indiana.
The maximum annual dividends that the domestic insurance entities may pay without prior approval from the Pennsylvania Insurance Department and the Indiana Insurance Department is limited to the greater of 10.0% of statutory surplus or 100% of
statutory net income for the most recently filed annual statement. Eastern Re must receive approval from the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority before it can pay any dividend to the Company.

CASH FLOWS

Cash flows from continuing operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 and 2010 were as follows (unaudited, in thousands):

The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities primarily reflects the increase in direct premiums written. The
increase in cash flows from investing activities primarily reflects the sale of investments to fund the Companys stock buyback program. The increase in cash used in financing activities primarily reflects the stock buyback program.
