FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-KSB contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements relating to the Corporation's business objectives and strategy.  Such forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, management beliefs, certain assumptions made by the Corporation's management, and estimates and projections about the Corporation's industry.  Words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "forecasts," "intends," "is likely," "judgment," "objective," "plans," "predicts," "projects," "seeks," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.  Determination of loss and loss adjustment expense reserves and amounts due from insurers are based substantially on estimates and the amounts so determined are inherently forward-looking.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict with respect to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence.  Therefore, actual results and outcomes may differ materially from those expressed, forecasted, or contemplated by any such forward-looking statements.

PART I

Item 1.  Description of Business.

Business Development

Professionals Direct, Inc. (the "Corporation") took part in a corporate restructuring in which Michigan Lawyers Mutual Insurance Company (the "Mutual") demutualized and converted from a mutual insurance company to a Michigan domiciled stock property and casualty insurance company, Professionals Direct Insurance Company ("PDIC"), effective July 1, 2001 (the "Conversion").  As part of the demutualization, the organization was restructured and the names of certain related entities were changed (the "Restructure").

The current organizational structure is as follows:

PDIC was incorporated on June 4, 1987 under a preliminary certificate of authority issued by the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Services (the "OFIS"), formerly the Michigan Insurance Bureau.  PDIC's final certificate of authority was issued by the OFIS on August 17, 1987.  PDIC's 1987 certificate of authority contained numerous restrictions on its operations and limited PDIC's policies to lawyers professional liability ("LPL") insurance only.  On December 9, 1999, PDIC obtained a certificate of authority from the OFIS to write general property and casualty lines under Section 624 of the Michigan Insurance Code and without the general operating restrictions imposed by the 1987 certificate.

Surplus Certificates.  Starting in 1987, PDIC was capitalized by contributions from Michigan lawyers and law firms which were evidenced by a financial instrument called a "Surplus Certificate."  The Surplus Certificates were issued under Section 5836 of the Michigan Insurance Code in denominations of $1,000, with simple interest accruing on the principal

---

As of December 31, 2002, 2,531 Surplus Certificates were outstanding.  The outstanding Surplus Certificates are treated as senior subordinated debt of PDIC, which must be redeemed before any distributions can be made by PDIC to its sole shareholder, the Corporation, but are in all other respects subordinated to the claims of policyholders and subject to all other limitations provided for in the Surplus Certificates and under applicable law.

Business of Issuer

The Corporation is a holding company whose primary assets are the outstanding stock of its wholly-owned subsidiaries:

| |  | Professionals Direct Insurance Company - provides lawyers professional liability insurance directly to lawyers and law firms in various states, with 76% of current year premium from the state of Michigan.

Business Strategies.  The business strategy the Corporation and its subsidiaries intend to pursue has several components:

| |  | Focus on the needs of principal customers, which are today small law firms (generally one- to five-person firms), by enhanced service, more-cost-effective delivery of LPL insurance products and the cross-selling of other insurance and financial products.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
| |  | Through Services, provide multiple LPL carriers for the larger law firms.                                                                                                                                                                                     
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
| |  | Diversify risk-taking operations geographically by selectively entering other states.                                                                                                                                                                         
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
| |  | Provide professional liability insurance products to other professionals as members of multidisciplinary practices that include lawyers or by independent expansion into other professions under separate policies.                                           
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
| |  | Reduce the ratio of underwriting expenses to net premiums earned and maintain a high level of customer service through continued enhancement of information and processing systems.                                                                           

Programs and Policy Forms.PDIC offers three kinds of LPL insurance policies.

Two of the policy forms are similar in their coverage provisions.  The ProDirectPremier® insurance policy is sold to law firms of six or more lawyers.  The ProDirectSelect®insurance policy is sold to solo practitioners and to law firms of two to five lawyers.  The policy forms are claims-made policies with full prior-acts coverage available.

Coverage is generally offered up to $5 million per claim.  Effective January 1, 2001, defense expenses are offered outside of the coverage limits with certain restrictions.  Under the policy forms, the insured has the right to reject a settlement of a claim.  PDIC has certain rights to limit its damages when a viable settlement is offered.

In the Premierprogram, PDIC allows more endorsements, offers expanded coverage and is willing to tailor coverage to the unique needs of larger law firms.  In addition, PDIC provides risk management to Premierprogram law firms through on-site visits and other assistance upon request.

The ProDirectEssentials® insurance policy is the third kind of LPL insurance policy offered by PDIC.  This policy is marketed and sold exclusively through the Lawyers Direct Risk Purchasing Group (described below), with liability limits of $100,000 to $1,000,000 per claim.  There is no deductible. Coverage is limited to acts on behalf of the named insured law firm.  The Essentialspolicy does have a consent to settle provision.

Underwriting.PDIC offers pricing and underwriting terms that it believes will generate underwriting profits.  In preparing its rates and forms, PDIC reviews its loss data and the sources of claims against its insureds.

---

PDIC relies to a significant degree on information provided by its insureds, and on the investigation and review of claims, in underwriting risks.  PDIC evaluates and accepts applications for insurance based on consistently applied underwriting guidelines.  PDIC's processing system provides modifications for some of these guidelines.  Underwriting supervisors audit the work of individual underwriters to assure adherence to the guidelines.  Underwriters monitor policyholder deviations from the underwriting guidelines to assist in decisions relating to cancellation and non-renewal.

Small-Law-Firm Focus.Carriers frequently enter the LPL market and attempt to gain market share by reducing premium charges. Insureds will frequently change to carriers that offer lower-priced products.  Most of PDIC's LPL policies are written on its Selectpolicy form for solo practitioners and law firms of two to five lawyers.  PDIC, thus, is not dependent on any single customer or a small group of customers.

Marketing and Distribution.Services is the source of more than 80% of PDIC's business.  The remainder is sourced through independent agents.  As of December 31, 2002, in addition to Services, a number of independent agencies and associated individual agents have been appointed to distribute policies to lawyers and law firms primarily in Arizona, Florida, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah.

Claims.In responding to claims, PDIC emphasizes timely investigation, evaluation and fair settlement while controlling claims expense and maintaining adequate reserves.  The claims operation is centralized in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  Law firms are employed as necessary to assist in the defense of claims.

The Lawyers Direct Risk Purchasing Group.   The Lawyers Direct Risk Purchasing Group (the "Group") is a Michigan non-profit corporation that was formed during 2002 to facilitate the purchase of liability insurance by certain of the Company's insureds.  Although the Corporation does not own the Group, the Corporation's executive officers are the sole members of the Group's board of directors.  Because the Corporation exercises significant control over the Group, its activity is included in the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

A. M. Best  and S&P Ratings.A. M. Best Company, which rates insurance companies based on factors of concern to policyholders, currently assigns an "A-" (Excellent) rating (its fourth highest rating category out of 15 categories) to PDIC.  A. M. Best assigns "A-" ratings to companies that, in its opinion, have demonstrated excellent financial strength, operating performance and market profile when compared to the standards established by A. M. Best.  Companies rated "A-" have a strong ability to meet their ongoing obligations to policyholders.

Standard & Poor's Claims-Paying Ability Rating for PDIC is currently BBB (its fourth highest rating category out of eight categories).  S&P's ratings are divided into "Secure Range" and "Vulnerable Range" groupings with a BBB rating grouped in the Secure Range.  An insurer rated BBB is deemed by S&P to have adequate capacity to meet its financial commitments.  However, the rating acknowledges it is more likely that adverse economic conditions or a change in circumstances could lead to difficulty in meeting its financial commitments.

---

In evaluating the financial and operating performance of PDIC, A. M. Best and S&P review, among other factors, the profitability, leverage and liquidity of PDIC, its book of business, the adequacy and soundness of its reinsurance, the quality and estimated market value of its assets, the adequacy of its loss reserves, the adequacy of its surplus, its capital structure, the experience and competency of its management and its market presence.  No assurance can be given that A. M. Best or S&P will not reduce PDIC's current rating.  A. M. Best and S&P ratings are not intended to protect investors.  Accordingly, PDIC's ratings should not be relied upon as a basis for an investment decision relative to the common stock of the Corporation.

Competition.The property and casualty insurance business is highly competitive.  PDIC has both Michigan-based competitors and out-of-state competitors for its product offerings.  Some of these competitors are larger and have much greater financial, technical and operating resources than do the Corporation and its subsidiaries.  The Corporation believes that competition is based primarily on the following factors:

| |  | price of insurance products                      
| | - | -------------------------------------------------
| |  | quality of insurance products,                   
| |  | quality and speed of service and claims response,
| |  | financial strength,                              
| |  | A. M. Best rating and other ratings,             
| |  | sales and marketing capability, and              
| |  | technical expertise in a specialty area.         

The Corporation's top ten commercial competitors are as follows:

| |  | Gulf Insurance                  
| | - | --------------------------------
| |  | Philadelphia Insurance Company  
| |  | Promark                         
| |  | Clarendon/Lawyer Protection Plan
| |  | CNA                             
| |  | Zurich                          
| |  | Chicago Insurance/Interstate    
| |  | Navigator Insurance Company     
| |  | Great American                  
| |  | ProNational                     

The professional liability insurance market for attorneys is difficult to measure.  In addition to being a very fluid market, there is no way to know how many attorneys practice law without malpractice insurance.

The ability of the Corporation to compete successfully in the future is expected to depend in part on factors that it cannot control, such as market conditions, ratings and regulatory conditions.

Supervision and Regulation.  Michigan insurance companies such as PDIC are subject to oversight and regulation by the OFIS.  The authority of the OFIS includes, without limitation:

---

| |  | establishing standards of solvency which must be met and maintained by insurers,            
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | licensing insurers and agents to do business,                                               
| |  | establishing guidelines for the nature of and limitations on investments by insurers,       
| |  | reviewing premium rates for various lines of insurance,                                     
| |  | reviewing the provisions which insurers must make for current losses and future liabilities,
| |  | reviewing transactions involving a change in control, and                                   
| |  | approving policy forms.                                                                     

The OFIS also requires the filing of annual and other reports relating to the financial condition of insurance companies doing business in Michigan.

In addition to state-imposed insurance laws and regulations, the OFIS applies the requirements adopted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (the "NAIC") that require insurance companies to calculate and report information under a risk-based formula that attempts to measure capital and surplus needs based on the risks in a company's mix of products and investment portfolio.  The NAIC has also developed a set of financial ratios, referred to as the "Insurance Regulatory Information System," or "IRIS," for use by state insurance regulators in monitoring the financial condition of insurance companies. The NAIC has established an acceptable range of values for each of the IRIS financial ratios. Generally, an insurance company will become the subject of increased scrutiny when four or more of its IRIS ratio results fall outside the range deemed acceptable by the NAIC.  For 2002, none of PDIC's IRIS ratios generated exceptional values, except for investment yield and change in net writings.  The investment yield ratio generates an exceptional value due to the relatively poor bond market conditions that have resulted in unusually low yields in the current year.  The change in net writings generated an unusual value as a result of the significant growth experienced by PDIC in net written premium.  The increase was the result primarily of the expansion beyond Michigan.  There can be no assurance, however, that PDIC will not generate financial ratios that result in additional exceptional values in the future.

Most states, including Michigan, have enacted legislation that regulates insurance holding company systems. Each insurance company in a holding company system is required to register with the insurance supervisory agency of its state of domicile and furnish information concerning the operations of companies within the holding company system that may materially affect the operations, management or financial condition of the insurers within the system. These laws permit the OFIS and any other relevant insurance departments to examine the Corporation and its insurance subsidiaries at any time, to require disclosure of material transactions with the Corporation and to require prior approval of transactions, such as extraordinary dividends from PDIC to the Corporation.  All transactions within the holding company system between the Corporation and its subsidiaries must be fair and equitable. Under Michigan law, the maximum dividend that may be paid by PDIC to the Corporation during any twelve-month period without prior approval of the OFIS is the greater of 10% of PDIC's statutory surplus as reported on the most recent annual statement filed with the OFIS or the net income of PDIC for the period covered by such annual statement.  In addition to the restrictions imposed by Michigan law,

---

The Michigan Insurance Code requires that the Insurance Commissioner receive prior notice of and approve a change of control for either PDIC or the Corporation. The Michigan Insurance Code contains a complete definition of "control." In simplified terms, a person, corporation or other entity would obtain "control" of PDIC or the Corporation if the person or entity possessed, had a right to acquire possession of, or had the power to direct any other person acquiring possession of, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the voting securities of either company. To obtain approval for a change of control, the proposed acquirer must file an application with the Insurance Commissioner containing detailed information such as the identity and background of the acquirer and its affiliates, the sources of and amount of funds to be used to effect the acquisition and financial information regarding the proposed acquirer.

Employees.  As of December 31, 2002, the Corporation and its subsidiaries had 27 full-time employees and 29 total employees.

Glossary of Selected Insurance Terms

The following insurance terms, when used in this Form 10-KSB, have the meanings ascribed to them below.

Cede.  To transfer to another insurer (the reinsurer) all or part of the insurance risk underwritten by an insurer.

Direct Written Premiums.  Total premiums written by an insurer other than premiums for reinsurance assumed by an insurer.

Earned Premium.  The prorated portion of an insurance premium that is no longer considered prepaid as a result of the elapsed time the insurance policy has been in force.  For example, after three months, $6,000 of a prepaid $24,000 annual premium is considered earned premium.

GAAP.The abbreviation for generally accepted accounting principles.

Loss Adjustment Expenses (LAE).The expense of settling claims, including legal and other fees.

Loss Ratio.  The ratio of net incurred losses and loss adjustment expenses to net premiums earned.  Generally, the loss ratio calculation is the same under SAP and GAAP.

---

Net Earned Premiums.  The portion of written premiums that is recognized for accounting purposes as revenue during a period.  The sum of direct earned premium plus assumed earned premium less ceded earned premium.

Reinsurance.A procedure whereby an insurer remits or cedes a portion of the premium to a reinsurer as payment to the reinsurer for assuming a portion of the risk or liability under the policy.  Reinsurance can be effected by "treaties" under which all risks of a defined category, amount and type for a primary insurer are covered, or on a "facultative" basis under which risks are covered on an individual, contract-by contract basis.

Reserves.  Liability established by an insurer to reflect the estimated cost of claim payments and related expenses that the insurer will ultimately be required to pay with respect to the insurance it has underwritten.

SAP.The abbreviation for statutory accounting principles, which is the form of accounting required by PDIC in its financial reports to the OFIS.

Statutory Accounting Principles.  Those principles required by state law which must be followed by insurers in submitting their financial statements to state insurance departments.

Statutory Surplus.  The amount remaining after all liabilities of an insurance company are subtracted from all of its admitted assets, applying statutory accounting principles.

Surplus.  The amount by which a company's assets exceed its liabilities.

Unearned Premium.  The pro rata portion of an insurance premium considered to be a prepayment.  For example, after three months, $18,000 of a prepaid $24,000 annual premium is still considered unearned premium.
