ALFA CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2006

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The results of operations for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The year-end
consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Statutory Practices:Generally accepted accounting
principles differ in certain respects from the statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by insurance regulatory authorities. Prescribed statutory accounting practices include state laws, regulations, and general administrative rules,
as well as a variety of publications of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices that are not prescribed. Such practices differ from state-to-state, may
differ from company-to-company within a state, and may change in the future. Currently the Companys statutory net income and surplus are the same under the State of Alabama and NAIC accounting practices.

The Companys annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all related amendments to those reports are made
available on its website at www.alfains.com by first selecting Invest in Alfa and then selecting Financial Reports. Also available on the website is the Companys Code of Ethics titled Principles of Business
Conduct which can be accessed under such title.

Affiliates

Alfa Corporation is affiliated with Alfa Mutual Insurance Company (Mutual), Alfa Mutual Fire Insurance Company (Fire) and Alfa Mutual General Insurance Company
(collectively, the Mutual Group). The Mutual Group owns 54.9% of Alfa Corporations common stock, their largest single investment. Alfa Specialty Insurance Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mutual. Alfa Corporation and its
subsidiaries (the Company) together with the Mutual Group comprise the Alfa Group (Alfa). Virginia Mutual Insurance Company (Virginia Mutual) currently cedes 80% of its direct business to Fire under a Strategic Affiliation Agreement signed in August
2001.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are particularly
important in determining the reserves for future policy benefits, losses and loss adjustment expenses and deferred policy acquisition costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current fiscal year. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income or stockholders equity.

2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contingencies

Certain legal proceedings are in process at September 30, 2006. Costs for these and similar legal proceedings, including accruals for outstanding cases, totaled
approximately $78 thousand and $1.8 million for the first nine months of 2006 and 2005, respectively. These proceedings involve alleged breaches of contract, torts, including bad faith and fraud claims, and miscellaneous other causes of action.
These lawsuits involve claims for unspecified amounts of compensatory damages, mental anguish damages, and punitive damages.

Approximately 16 legal
proceedings against the Companys life subsidiary were in process at September 30, 2006. Of the 16 proceedings, seven were filed in 2004, five were filed in 2003, three were filed in 1999, and one was filed in 1996.

In addition, one purported class action lawsuit is pending against both Alfa Builders, Inc. and Fire. Additionally, two purported class action lawsuits are pending
against the property casualty companies involving a number of issues and allegations which could affect the Company because of a pooling agreement between the companies. No class has been certified in any of these three purported class action cases.
In the event a class is certified in any of these purported class actions, reserves may need to be adjusted.

Management believes adequate accruals have
been established in these known cases. However, it should be noted that in Mississippi and Alabama, where the Company has substantial business, the likelihood of a judgment in any given suit, including a large mental anguish and/or punitive damage
award by a jury, bearing little or no relation to actual damages, continues to exist, creating the potential for unpredictable material adverse financial results.

Based upon information presently available, management is unaware of any contingent liabilities arising from other threatened litigation that should be reserved or disclosed.

Commitments

Guarantees: The Companys property casualty subsidiaries entered into an agreement with Fire
in 2000 with respect to a loan guarantee on Fires part, on behalf of EastChase Land Company, LLC to Whitney Bank. Fires guarantee amount to Whitney Bank is $1 million. In the unlikely event of a guarantee call, the Companys
property casualty subsidiaries would be liable to reimburse Fire a maximum of $200 thousand. Similarly, in 2003, the Companys property casualty subsidiaries entered into a second agreement with Fire which agreed to guarantee, on behalf of Alfa
Ventures II, LLC, the lesser of $25 million or 50% of the total obligations of The Shoppes at EastChase, LLC and EastChase Plaza, LLC with Columbus Bank & Trust Company (CB&T). This second guarantee is known as the bucket
guarantee, and supersedes all previous CB&T guarantees for each of these EastChase entities. In the unlikely event of a guarantee call, the Companys property casualty subsidiaries would be liable to reimburse Fire a maximum of $1.4
million. During 2004, the Companys property casualty subsidiaries entered into a third agreement with Fire in which Fire agreed to a guarantee, on behalf of EastChase Office, LLC. This guarantee was restructured during the second quarter of
2006, relieving the property casualty subsidiaries of any liability in the unlikely event of a guarantee call.

Unfunded Commitments: The Company
periodically invests in affordable housing tax credit partnerships. At September 30, 2006, the Company had legal and binding commitments to fund partnerships of this type in the amount of approximately $35.5 million. These commitments are
included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company maintains a variety of funding agreements in the form of lines of credit with affiliated entities. The chart
below depicts, at September 30, 2006, the cash outlay by the Company representing the potential full repayment of lines of credit it has outstanding with others. Also included with the amounts shown as lines of credit are the
potential amounts the Company would have to supply to other affiliated entities if they made full use of their existing lines of credit during 2006 with the Companys finance subsidiary. Other commercial commitments of the Company shown below
include commercial paper outstanding, scheduled fundings of partnerships, potential performance payouts related to Vision and funding of a policy administration system project of the life subsidiary.

Certain commercial commitments in the table above include items that may, in the future, require recognition
within the financial statements of the Company. Events leading to the call of a guarantee, the failure of the policy administration system being developed for use by the life insurance operations to perform properly and achievement of specific
metrics by Vision are examples of situations that would impact the financial position and results of the Company.

Segment profit or loss for the property casualty segment is measured by underwriting profits and losses as well as
by operating income. Segment profit or loss for the life insurance segment, the noninsurance segment and the corporate segment is measured by operating income. Management believes operating income serves as a meaningful tool for assessing the
profitability of the Companys ongoing operations. Operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined by the Company as net income excluding net realized investment gains and losses, net of applicable taxes. Realized investment gains
and losses are somewhat controllable by the Company through the timing of decisions to sell securities. Therefore, realized investment gains and losses are not indicative of future operating performance. Segment information for the previous period
has been restated to reflect the change in composition of reportable operating segments.

6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

On October 25, 1993, the Company established a Stock Incentive Plan (the 1993 Plan). The 1993 Plan was subsequently amended on April 26, 2001. On April 28, 2005, the Companys stockholders approved
the 2005 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the 2005 Plan). This Plan amends and restates the 1993 Plan. The 2005 Plan permits the grant of a variety of equity-based incentives based upon the Companys common stock, par value $1.00 per
share. These include stock options, which may be either incentive stock options as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or nonqualified options. The 2005 Plan also permits
awards of Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units and Performance Shares. A maximum of 3,800,000 shares of stock may be issued under the 2005 Plan. At September 30, 2006, 3,191,906 shares were available for grant.

It is the Companys policy to issue treasury shares upon exercise of options or release of awards. The Company currently has a stock repurchase
program to repurchase its outstanding common stock in the open market or in negotiated transactions in such quantities and at such times and prices as management may decide. At September 30, 2006, 3,385,466 treasury shares were available for
issuance.

Adoption of New Standard

Effective
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, share-based compensation
expense is recognized using the fair-value based method for all awards granted on or after the date of adoption. Compensation expense for unvested stock options and awards that were outstanding on December 31, 2005 will be recognized over the
requisite service period based on the grant-date fair value of those options and awards as previously calculated under the pro forma disclosures under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.The Company determined the fair
value of these awards using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Under SFAS No. 123(R), an estimate is made for the number of awards that are expected to vest and this forfeiture rate is applied to determine the amount of compensation
cost to be recognized. The forfeiture rate must be evaluated at each reporting period to determine if any changes should be made which could impact the amount of compensation cost that will be ultimately recognized. In addition, the non-substantive
vesting period approach is used for attributing stock compensation to individual periods for awards to retirement eligible employees, which requires recognition of compensation expense immediately for such grants or over the period from the grant
date to the date retirement eligibility is achieved. This change will not affect the overall amount of compensation expense to be recognized but will impact the timing of expense recognition. The effects on the amount of expense the Company recorded
in the nine-month and three- month

periods ended September 30, 2006 were an increase of $943 thousand and a decrease of $29 thousand, respectively. In accordance with the modified
prospective transition method, results for prior periods have not been restated.

Prior to adoption and consistent with the provisions of SFAS
No. 123, the Company used the intrinsic value based method to account for stock options issued under the 1993 Plan and provided pro forma disclosures as if the fair value based method had been applied. The Company accounted for the 2005 Plan
under SFAS No. 123 using the recognition and measurement principles of the fair value method.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R), the Companys share of compensation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 related to stock
options was $1.8 million, restricted share awards was $508 thousand and tax benefits of $808 thousand. Compensation cost for share-based payment arrangements reduced the Companys net earnings by $1.5 million and diluted earnings per share by
$0.02 for the first nine months of 2006. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, share-based compensation was $391 thousand, principally related to restricted awards and dividend equivalents on options granted in prior years and tax
benefits of $137 thousand. These expenses are allocated to the Company based on the Management and Operating Agreement with Mutual (refer to Note 3  Related Party Transactions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included
in the Companys annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K).

The Companys share of compensation expense for the three months ended September 30,
2006 related to stock options was $368 thousand, restricted share awards was $109 thousand, and tax benefits of $167 thousand. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, compensation cost for share-based payment arrangements reduced net
earnings by $310 thousand and diluted earnings per share by $0.002. For the three months ended September 30, 2005, share-based compensation was $148 thousand, principally related to restricted awards and dividend equivalents on options granted
in prior years and tax benefits of $52 thousand.

The tax benefits associated with tax deductions that exceed the amount of compensation expense recognized
in the financial statements were $348 thousand and $211 thousand for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2006. This reduced cash flows from operating activities and increased cash flows for financing activities compared
to amounts that would have been reported if the standard had not been adopted.

The following table shows total share-based compensation expense included
in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income:

Stock Options

Under the 1993 and 2005 Plans, options ratably become exercisable annually over three years and expire ten years from the date of the award. Compensation cost for options with graded vesting is recognized using the straight-line method over
the three year vesting period for non-retirement eligible employees. Compensation cost for options is recognized immediately for grants to retirement eligible employees or over the period from the grant date to the date retirement eligibility is
achieved.

Amounts disclosed in this section represent gross amounts under the 2005 Plan.

Summarized information for stock option grants for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 is as follows:

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of equity options granted during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005 was $5.97 and $6.09, respectively.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and 2005, was $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Intrinsic value is measured using the fair market value at the date of exercise (for shares exercised) or at September 30, 2006 (for outstanding options), less
the applicable exercise price. Cash received from option exercises totaled $1.9 million and $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The tax benefit realized from stock options exercised during the
same periods was $322 thousand and $447 thousand, respectively, based on deductions from earnings of $921 thousand and $1.3 million, respectively.

Restricted Shares

Beginning in 2005, the Company awarded two types of service-based nonvested restricted shares to
certain officers: restricted shares and career shares. Restricted shares vest and are issuable on the third anniversary after the date of grant. Prior to issuance, the Company will vote the shares and dividends paid will be credited as additional
shares of restricted stock that vest along with the original grant. Career shares are awards of restricted stock to certain officers based on specified target levels of ownership of Company common stock by those officers. These shares vest on the
third anniversary after the date of grant, but are not negotiable by the recipients until the recipients terminate employment with the Company. The Company will vote these shares until they are issued to the recipients and dividends paid will be
credited as additional shares of restricted stock and held by the Company until such shares are issued.

Amounts disclosed in this section represent gross
amounts under the 2005 Plan.

Nonvested restricted shares are measured at fair value on the date of grant. Compensation cost for restricted
share awards with cliff vesting is recognized using the straight-line method over the three-year vesting period for non-retirement eligible employees. Compensation cost for restricted share awards is recognized immediately for grants to retirement
eligible employees or over the period from the grant date to the date retirement eligibility is achieved.

The total fair value of shares vested during the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, was $199 thousand and $0, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, 12,271.4447 shares were released with 12,271 shares issued from treasury shares and fractional shares
paid in cash.

At September 30, 2006, there was $706 thousand of unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted share awards that are
expected to be charged to expense over a weighted-average period of 1.68 years. This expense will be allocated according to Alfas Management and Operating Agreement.

9. LOAN PORTFOLIO

During the second quarter of 2006, the Company discovered irregularities in certain loan transactions. Through an investigation of the irregularities it was determined that fraudulent loan transactions had been initiated by one of the
Companys agents. It was determined through a portfolio review that the acts were limited to this single employee. The fraudulent activities have been evaluated by the Company and it has been determined that the effect in any prior reporting
period is deemed to be immaterial. The financial impact recorded during the second quarter of 2006 was a reduction of net income of $3.5 million and basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.04. During the third quarter, the Company recorded
estimated insurance recoveries, net of tax, of $1.3 million. These recoveries impacted basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.02. The second and third quarter adjustments are not material to any prior period and will not be material to the
financial statements for the current year.

10. PLAN OF CONVERSION OF VIRGINIA MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY

During the third quarter of 2006, the Company executed a Plan of Conversion of Virginia Mutual Insurance Company. Under the agreement, Virginia Mutual Insurance Company
plans to convert from a mutual company to a stock company and simultaneously merge with a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of this mutual conversion, Virginia Mutuals excess surplus will be distributed to eligible
policyholders and the Company will recapitalize the business in a new subsidiary, Alfa Alliance Insurance Corporation, herein referred to as the Restructuring. Virginia Mutual and the Alfa companies have participated in a Strategic
Affiliation Agreement since 2001. The Virginia State Corporation Commission (the Commission), which includes the Bureau of Insurance (the primary regulator of Virginia Mutual under applicable Virginia law), conducted a public hearing on the
Restructuring on October 3, 2006. The Commission subsequently issued an Order dated October 4, 2006, approving the Plan and finding that the terms of the Restructuring are fair and equitable to the Virginia Mutual policyholders. Virginia
law requires that the Restructuring cannot be completed without the affirmative vote of the Virginia Mutual policyholders. A special meeting of the Virginia Mutual policyholders, held for the purpose of permitting such vote, will be held on
Wednesday, November 29, 2006. It is anticipated that, subject to policyholder approval, the Restructuring will become effective January 1, 2007.

11. FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In September 2005, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of
Position 05-1, Accounting by Insurance Enterprises for Deferred Acquisition Costs in Connection With Modifications or Exchanges of Insurance Contracts. This statement provides guidance on accounting for deferred acquisition costs on an
internal replacement, defined as a modification in product benefits, rights, coverages, or features that occurs by the exchange of an existing contract for a new contract, or by amendment, endorsement, or rider to an existing contract, or by the
election of a benefit, right, coverage, or feature within an existing contract. The guidance in this pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company plans to adopt this statement for internal
replacements beginning January 1, 2007. The Company is currently preparing for the adoption of this statement and continues to assess the impact this statement will have on its financial position or results of operations at the time of
adoption.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an Amendment of FASB Statements
No. 133 and 140, which eliminates the exception from applying SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to interests on securitized financial assets so similar instruments are accounted for
similarly regardless of the form. This Statement also allows the election of fair value measurement at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument is subject to a remeasurement event, on an instrument-by-instrument
basis, in cases in which a derivative would otherwise have to bifurcate. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued in an entitys first fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company does
not anticipate that this statement will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

The FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an Amendment of Statement
No. 140, in March 2006. This statement will require entities to recognize a servicing asset or liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations. It also
requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value and allows a choice of either the amortization or fair value measurement method for subsequent measurement. SFAS No. 156 is
effective for annual periods beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that this statement will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

The FASB ratified the consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the
Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation), in June 2006. This consensus requires disclosure of the accounting policy employed by the Company for any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly related to a
revenue-producing transaction. The Company does not anticipate that EITF Issue No. 06-3, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time
it is adopted.

In July 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities,
classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, financial disclosures, and transition. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this interpretation may have on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to U.S.
GAAP guidance requiring the use of fair value. It also outlines the framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact this statement may have on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

The FASB
also issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R), in September 2006. This statement will require a company to
recognize on a prospective basis an asset for a plans overfunded status or a liability for a plans underfunded status in its statement of financial position, to measure a plans assets and its obligations that determine its funded
status as of the end of the employers fiscal year, and to recognize changes in the funded status of a defined postretirement plan in the year in which the changes occur as a component of other comprehensive income. The requirement to recognize
the funded status of a benefit plan and the disclosure requirements of the statement are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. The requirement to measure the plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the
employers fiscal year-end statement of financial position is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company has no management or operational employees. Refer to Item 1. Business of the
Companys 2005 annual report on Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of personnel. As discussed in Note 10, the Company executed a Plan of Conversion of Virginia Mutual Insurance Company during the third quarter of 2006. Virginia
Mutual Insurance Company has a frozen defined benefit retirement plan. Subject to policyholder approval, Virginia Mutual Insurance Company will be restructured to form a new subsidiary of Alfa Corporation effective January 1, 2007. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact this statement will have on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

The
staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB 108 requires that public
companies use a dual-approach in assessing the quantitative effects of financial misstatements. This dual approach includes both an income statement focused assessment and a balance sheet focused assessment. This bulletin must be applied
to financial statements for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that SAB 108 will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Alfa Corporation:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Alfa Corporation and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2006 and the
related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. These
interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the
accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations addresses the financial condition of Alfa Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) as of September 30, 2006, compared with December 31, 2005 and the results of
operations for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated
Condensed Financial Statements that are included in this Form 10-Q and the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the annual report to stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2005 on Form 10-K.

Any statement contained in this report which is not a historical fact, or which might otherwise be considered an opinion or projection concerning the
Company or its business, whether expressed or implied, is meant as and should be considered a forward-looking statement as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on
assumptions and opinions concerning a variety of known and unknown risks, including but not necessarily limited to changes in market conditions, natural disasters and other catastrophic events, increased competition, changes in availability and cost
of reinsurance, changes in governmental regulations, technological changes, political and legal contingencies and general economic conditions, as well as other risks and uncertainties more completely described in the Companys filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, including this report on Form 10-Q. If any of these assumptions or opinions proves incorrect, any forward-looking statements made on the basis of such assumptions or opinions may also prove materially incorrect in
one or more respects and may cause actual future results to differ materially from those contemplated, projected, estimated or budgeted in such forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

Alfa Corporation is a financial services holding company headquartered in Alabama that offers primarily
personal lines of property casualty insurance, life insurance and financial services products through its wholly-owned subsidiaries:



| |  |  | Alfa Insurance Corporation (AIC)
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | Alfa General Insurance Corporation (AGI)
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------



| |  |  | Alfa Vision Insurance Corporation (AVIC)

| |  |  | Alfa Agency Georgia, Inc. (AAG)
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | Alfa Benefits Corporation (ABC)
| | - |  | -------------------------------

Alfa Corporation is affiliated with Alfa
Mutual Insurance Company (Mutual), Alfa Mutual Fire Insurance Company (Fire) and Alfa Mutual General Insurance Company (collectively, the Mutual Group). The Mutual Group owns 54.9% of Alfa Corporations common stock, their largest single
investment. Alfa Specialty Insurance Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mutual. Alfa Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company) together with the Mutual Group comprise the Alfa Group (Alfa). Virginia Mutual Insurance Company (Virginia
Mutual) currently cedes 80% of its direct business to Fire under a Strategic Affiliation Agreement signed in August 2001.

The Companys revenue
consists mainly of premiums earned, policy charges, net investment income and fee income. Benefit and settlement expenses consist primarily of claims paid and claims in process and pending and include an estimate of amounts incurred but not yet
reported along with loss adjustment expenses. Other operating expenses consist primarily of compensation expenses, and other overhead business expenses, net of deferred policy acquisition costs.

The Company reports operating segments based on the Companys legal entities, which are organized by line of business:

| |  |  | Life insurance
| | - |  | --------------

| |  |  | Noninsurance
| | - |  | ------------



| |  |  | Consumer financing
| | - |  | ------------------



| |  |  | Commercial leasing
| | - |  | ------------------



| |  |  | Agency operations
| | - |  | -----------------



| |  |  | Employee benefits administration
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | Corporate and eliminations
| | - |  | --------------------------

In the first nine months of 2006, property
casualty insurance operations accounted for 80.7% of revenues and 78.5% of net income. Life insurance operations generated 18.1% of revenues and 25.9% of net income. Noninsurance operations, combined with corporate operations and eliminations,
generated 1.2% of revenues and resulted in a net loss of $3.2 million or 4.4% of net income.

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees and non-employees, including grants of stock options, to be recognized as compensation
expense based on fair value at date of grant. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock options to employees using the intrinsic value method described in APB Opinion No. 25 and, as such, recognized no compensation cost for
employee stock options granted at market value on the date of grant. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method, therefore no prior period results have been restated. The valuation model used to value stock
options under SFAS No. 123(R) is the Black-Scholes-Merton model, which is the same valuation model that was used prior to January 1, 2006 for pro forma disclosures under SFAS No. 123. Under SFAS No. 123(R) an estimate must be
made of the number of awards that are expected to vest and this forfeiture rate is applied to determine the amount of compensation cost to be recognized. The forfeiture rate must be evaluated at each reporting period to determine if any changes
should be made which could impact the amount of compensation cost that will be ultimately recognized. In addition, the amount of compensation cost to be recognized is based on non-substantive vesting periods attributable to retirement eligible
employees. Alfas total fair-value-based compensation expense associated with stock options that were not vested at January 1, 2006 was $3.6 million and the weighted average period over which this expense will be recognized is 0.74 years.
The Company shares compensation cost with Mutual based on Alfas Management and Operating Agreement (refer to Note 3  Related Party Transactions in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys
annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K).

Future results of operations will depend in part on the Companys ability to predict and control benefit and
settlement expenses through underwriting criteria, product design and negotiation of favorable vendor contracts. The Company must also seek timely and accurate rate changes from insurance regulators in order to meet strategic business objectives.
Selection of insurable risks, proper collateralization of loans and leases and continued staff development also impact the operating results of the Company. The Companys inability to mitigate any or all risks mentioned above or other factors
may adversely affect its profitability.

In evaluating the performance of the Companys segments, management believes operating income serves as a
meaningful tool for assessing the profitability of the Companys ongoing operations. Operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined by the Company as net income excluding net realized investment gains and losses, net of applicable
taxes. Realized investment gains and losses are somewhat controllable by the Company through the timing of decisions to sell securities. Therefore, realized investment gains and losses are not indicative of future operating performance.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires the Companys management to make significant estimates and assumptions based on information available at the time
the financial statements are prepared. In addition, management must ascertain the appropriateness and timing of any changes in these estimates and assumptions. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to
the Companys financial statements and because of the possibility that subsequent events and available information may differ markedly from managements judgments at the time financial statements are prepared. For the Company, the areas
most subject to significant management judgments include reserves for property casualty losses and loss adjustment expenses, reserves for future policy benefits, deferred policy acquisition costs, valuation of investments, and reserves for pending
litigation. The application of these critical accounting estimates impacts the values at which 72% of the Companys assets and 60% of



21



---

the Companys liabilities are reported at September 30, 2006 and therefore have a direct effect on net earnings and stockholders equity. The
Companys Summary of Significant Accounting Policies is presented in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companys annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K.

Management has discussed the Companys critical accounting policies and estimates, together with any changes therein, with the Audit Committee of the Companys
Board of Directors. The Companys Audit Committee has also reviewed the disclosures contained herein.

Reserves for Property Casualty Losses and
Loss Adjustment Expenses

Losses and loss adjustment expenses payable are managements best estimates at a given point in time of what the Company
expects to pay claimants, based on known facts, circumstances, historical trends, emergence patterns and settlement patterns. Reserves for reported losses are established on a case-by-case basis with the amounts determined by claims adjusters based
on the Companys reserving practices, which take into account the type of risk, the circumstances surrounding each claim and policy provisions relating to types of loss. Loss and loss adjustment expense reserves for incurred claims that have
not yet been reported (IBNR) are estimated based primarily on historical emergence patterns with consideration given to many variables including statistical information, inflation, legal developments, storm loss estimates, and economic conditions.

The Companys internal actuarial staff conducts annual reviews of projected loss development information by line of business to assist management in
making estimates of reserves for ultimate losses and loss adjustment expenses payable. Several factors are considered in estimating ultimate liabilities including consistency in relative case reserve adequacy, consistency in claims settlement
practices, recent legal developments, historical data, actuarial projections, accounting projections, exposure growth, current business conditions, catastrophe developments, and late reported claims. In addition, reasonableness is established in the
context of claim severity, loss ratio and trend factors, all of which are implicit in the liability estimates. On an interim basis, the Companys internal actuarial staff reviews the direct emergence for each line of business compared to the
expected emergence implied by the most recent annual review. If the emergence is not within acceptable bounds, the opinion on reserve adequacy is revised and reserve amounts are adjusted. Otherwise, IBNR reserves are adjusted as changes in exposure
indicate that additional reserves are needed until the next annual review is completed. The following methodologies are used to develop a range of probable outcomes for estimated loss and loss adjustment expense reserves during the annual review,
with the Catastrophes methods used during both annual and interim reviews:

The annual actuarial reviews
are presented to management with a point estimate established within the range of probable outcomes for evaluating the adequacy of reserves and determination of the appropriate



22



---

reserve value to be included in the financial statements. Management establishes reserves slightly above mid-point to include an estimated provision for
uncertainty and to minimize the necessity for changing historical estimates. Although management uses many internal and external resources, as well as multiple established methodologies to calculate reserves, there is no method for determining the
exact ultimate liability.

Management establishes reserves for loss adjustment expenses that are not attributable to a specific claim. These reserves are
referred to as Defense and Cost Containment (DCC) and Adjusting and Other Expenses (AO). DCC and AO reserves are recorded to establish the liability for settling and defending claims that have been incurred, but have not yet been completely settled.

For AO, historical ratios of AO to paid losses are developed, and then applied to the current outstanding reserves. The method uses a traditional
assumption that 50% of the expenses are realized when the claim is open, and the other 50% are incurred when the claim is closed. The method also assumes that the underlying claims process and mix of business do not change materially over time.

An important assumption underlying the reserve estimation methods for the property casualty lines is that the loss cost trends implicitly built into the
loss and LAE patterns will continue into the future. Some of the factors that could influence assumptions arise from a variety of sources including tort law changes, development of new medical procedures, social inflation, and other inflationary
changes in costs beyond assumed levels. Inflation changes have much less impact on short-tail personal lines reserves and more impact on long-tail commercial lines. The Company does not have any significant long-tailed lines of business, so the
actuarial assumptions and methodologies are consistent across all lines of business, regardless of the expected payout patterns. This is further evidenced by the fact that approximately 90% of ultimate losses for a given accident year are reported
in the first year and by the end of the second year more than 99% are reported.

Reserves for Policyholder Benefits

Benefit reserves for traditional life products are determined according to the provisions of SFAS No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises.
The methodology used requires that the present value of future benefits to be paid to or on behalf of policyholders less the present value of future net premiums (that portion of the gross premium required to provide for all future benefits and
expenses) be determined. Such determination uses assumptions, including provision for adverse deviation, for expected investment yields, mortality, terminations and maintenance expenses applicable at the time the insurance contracts are issued.
These assumptions determine the level and the sufficiency of reserves. The Company annually tests the validity of these assumptions.

Benefit reserves for
universal life products are determined according to the provisions of SFAS No. 97, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Contracts and for Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments. This
standard directs that, for policies with an explicit account balance, the benefit reserve is the account balance without reduction for any applicable surrender charge. Benefit reserves for the Companys annuity products, like those for
universal life products, are determined using the requirements of SFAS No. 97.

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 60 and the AICPA
Audit and Accounting Guide, credit insurance reserves are held as unearned premium reserves calculated using the rule of 78 method. Reserves for supplementary contracts with life contingencies are determined using the 1971 Individual
Annuity Mortality Table and interest rates that vary depending on date of issue. Likewise, reserves for accidental death benefits are determined predominately by using the 1959 Accidental Death Benefit Mortality Table and an interest rate of 3%.
Reserves for disability benefits, both active and disabled lives, are calculated primarily from the 1952 Disability Study and a rate of 2.5%. A small portion of the Companys disabled life reserves are calculated based on the 1970 Intercompany
Group Disability Study and a rate of 3%.

Reserves for all other benefits are computed in accordance with presently accepted actuarial standards.
Management believes that reserve amounts reflected in the Companys balance sheet related to life products:



| |  |  | are consistently applied and fairly stated in accordance with sound actuarial principles;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | are based on actuarial assumptions which are in accordance with contract provisions;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | make a good and sufficient provision for all unmatured obligations of the Company guaranteed under the terms of its contracts;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



23



---

| |  |  | are computed on the basis of assumptions consistent with those used in computing the corresponding items of the preceding year end; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | include provision for all actuarial reserves and related items that ought to be established.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Valuation of Investments

Unrealized investment gains or losses on investments carried at fair value, net of
applicable income taxes, are reflected directly in stockholders equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and, accordingly, have no effect on net income. Fair values for fixed maturities are based on quoted market
prices. The cost of investment securities sold is determined by using the first-in, first-out methodology. In some instances, the Company may use the specific identification method. The Company monitors its investment portfolio and conducts
quarterly reviews of investments that have experienced a decline in fair value below cost to evaluate whether the decline is other than temporary. Such evaluations involve judgment and consider the magnitude and reasons for a decline and the
prospects for the fair value to recover in the near term. Declines resulting from broad market conditions or industry related events, and for which the Company has the intent to hold the investment for a period of time believed to be sufficient to
allow a market recovery or to maturity, are considered to be temporary. Future adverse investment market conditions, or poor operating results of underlying investments, could result in an impairment charge in the future. Where a decline in fair
value of an investment below its cost is deemed to be other than temporary, a charge is reflected in income for the difference between the cost or amortized cost and the estimated net realizable value. As a result, writedowns of $2.1 million were
recorded in the first nine months of 2006 on equity securities with no writedowns on fixed maturities. During the same period in 2005, writedowns of $638 thousand and $671 thousand were recorded on equity securities and fixed maturities,
respectively.

Policy Acquisition Costs

Policy
acquisition costs, such as commissions, premium taxes and certain other underwriting and marketing expenses that vary with and are directly related to the production of business have been deferred.

Life Insurance Products: Traditional life insurance acquisition costs are being amortized over the premium payment period of the related policies using
assumptions consistent with those used in computing policy benefit reserves. Acquisition costs for universal life type policies are being amortized over a thirty-year period in relation to the present value of estimated gross profits that are
determined based upon surrender charges and investment, mortality and expense margins. Investment income is considered, if necessary, in the determination of the recoverability of deferred policy acquisition costs.

Property Casualty Products: Acquisition costs for property casualty insurance are amortized over the period in which the related premiums are earned. Future
changes in estimates, such as the relative time certain employees spend in initial policy bookings, may require adjustment to the amounts deferred. Changes in underwriting and policy issuance processes may also give rise to changes in these deferred
costs.

Reserves for Litigation

The Company is subject
to lawsuits in the normal course of business related to its insurance and noninsurance products. At the time a lawsuit becomes known, management evaluates the merits of the case and determines the need for establishing estimated reserves for
potential settlements or judgments as well as reserves for potential costs of defending the Company against the allegations of the complaint. These reserves may be adjusted as the case develops. Periodically, and at least quarterly, management
assesses all pending cases as a basis for evaluating reserve levels. At that point, any necessary adjustments are made to applicable reserves as determined by management and are included in current operating results. Reserves may be adjusted based
upon outside counsels advice regarding the law and facts of the case, any revisions in the law applicable to the case, the results of depositions and/or other forms of discovery, general developments as the case progresses such as a favorable
or an adverse trial court ruling, whether a verdict is rendered for or against the Company, whether management believes an appeal will be successful, or other factors that may affect the anticipated outcome of the case. Management believes adequate
reserves have been established in known cases. However, due to the uncertainty of future events, there can be no assurance that actual outcomes will not differ from the assessments made by management.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

As a result of the Companys ongoing operating controls and procedures, evidence was discovered during the second quarter of 2006 suggesting irregularities in certain loan transactions within Financial. Management initiated an internal
investigation with the assistance of special legal counsel, as well as an outside forensic accountant. The Chairman of the Audit Committee and the Companys independent registered public accounting firm were notified.

As a result of the investigation, the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, include a second quarter write off of loans totaling $5.5
million in Financials loan portfolio offset by a third quarter accrual for estimated insurance recoveries of $2.0 million. This net write off had an impact, after taxes, on net income of $2.3 million or $0.02 per diluted share for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006. It was determined that the fraudulent transactions were limited to the acts of a single agent. Of the $6.2 million loan portfolio originated by this agent, it has been determined that $5.5 million were
fraudulently originated. Insurance recoveries of $2 million were received by the Company in October 2006. Although there is the potential for recoveries from civil actions, the amounts and timing of such recoveries cannot be estimated at this time.

The following table sets forth consolidated summarized income statement information for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30,
2006 and 2005:

The growth in the Automobile line is attributable to the addition of AVIC to the pool. AVIC writes nonstandard auto
business and contributed $23.4 million of the earned premium increase and $21.2 million of the written premium increase. AIC and AGI, which have a broader line of insurance products, contributed $13.9 million of the personal and commercial lines net
increase in earned premiums and $15.8 million of the personal and commercial lines net increase in written premiums. AIC and AGIs internal growth for the Automobile line was $5.1 million for earned premium and $6.7 million for written premium
as there were no major rate changes impacting growth in 2006. The Homeowner line earned premium growth of $7.7 million and written premium growth of $7.5 million was impacted by three rate increases across both preferred and standard lines. The
Farmowner earned and written premium growth of $1.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively, was impacted by a rate increase in the last quarter of 2005. Other personal lines earned premium growth was $352 thousand and commercial lines earned premium
declined $309 thousand.

Reinsurance ceded earned premium increased 28.2% or $740 thousand due to increases in the Companys catastrophe reinsurance
premiums. Reinsurance assumed earned premium increased 8.0% or $1.3 million due to a $1.7 million increase in the assumed premium from the state of Texas through AVIC offset by a $285 thousand decrease in the assumed reinsurance premium from
Virginia Mutuals quota share reinsurance treaty. The 32.0% decrease in reinsurance assumed written premium is related to Virginia Mutual being added to the pool in 2005.

The property casualty subsidiaries of the Company are participants in the Pooling Agreement with the Mutual Group. Under the Pooling Agreement, the Companys property casualty subsidiaries along with other
members of the Mutual Group cede their direct property casualty business which includes premiums, losses and underwriting expenses to Mutual. Mutual retrocedes to each participant a specified portion of premiums, losses and underwriting expenses
based on each participants pooling percentage. The Companys share of the pool was 65% during both 2006 and 2005, therefore pooling did not impact premium growth. Because premiums are allocated according to the Pooling Agreement, policy
count data is not applicable to the Company. Refer to Note 2  Pooling Agreement in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K for additional detail of the Pooling
Agreement.

Life Insurance: Life insurance premiums and policy charges increased $4.8 million, or 8%, for the first nine months of 2006 and $1.5
million, or 8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

Life insurance premiums increased $3.6 million or, 12% for the first nine months of
2006 and $1.1 million or, 10% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 primarily as a result of an increase in term life premiums of $3.5 million and an increase of 7.8% in term life policies inforce year to date and an increase in term
life premiums of $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The introduction of the return of premium level term life product contributed $2.2 million of the $3.6 million increase in life insurance premiums during the first nine
months of 2006 and $900 thousand of the $1.1 million increase for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

Life insurance policy charges increased
$1.2 million during the first nine months of 2006 and $421 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The year to date increase of $1.2 million is primarily due to an increase in universal life policy charges resulting from
increases in fund balances that the charges are assessed against along with a slight increase of 0.1% in the number of universal life policies inforce. The persistency ratio for life business was 91.0% and 91.1% at September 30, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. Persistency, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents the ratio of the annualized premium of policies inforce at September 30, 2006 and 2005 as a percentage of the annualized premium paid at September 30, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. The following table shows the growth in policies inforce and inforce annualized premium, comparing the first nine months of 2006 and 2005:

Policies inforce grew for all lines overall, except group life that showed a slight decrease in inforce policies.
Group life represents only 0.9% of total inforce policies at September 30, 2006. The slight increase in traditional life was the result of a decline in the direct mail product offering of term insurance. Inforce annualized premium growth was
5.8%, with the largest increase in traditional life at 12.3%.

Net investment income decreased $3.4 million, or 5% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and increased $1.7 million, or 7% for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The year to date reduction is due to the $3.5 million increase in net loan losses as a result of collateral loans written off during the
second quarter of 2006, increased interest costs on commercial paper and notes payable, declines in partnership income offset by increases in interest income on fixed maturities, dividend income on equity securities and interest income on collateral
loans and short-term investments. The quarter to date increase is due to insurance recoveries accrued during the quarter of $2 million. Positive cash flows resulted in an increase in invested assets of 4% in the nine months since December 31,
2005.

Other income increased $3.5 million, or 21% and $2.1 million, or 39% for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, due
to an increase in fee income from AVIC.

Net Income

Operating income for the property casualty subsidiaries decreased by $2.2 million, or 4%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $1.2 million, or 6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2006, AVIC and Virginia Mutual operating income decreased $105 thousand as a result of increases in both AVICs loss ratio of 4.4% and loss adjustment expense (LAE) ratio of 1.3%, a 4.4% increase in Virginia
Mutuals loss ratio offset by increased production in AVIC, a 2.8% improvement in AVICs expense ratio and increases in AVICs net investment income of $1.3 million. AIC and AGI operating income decreased $2.1 million as a result of
increases in the LAE ratio of 0.5% and the expense ratio of 2.6% and decreases in net investment income of $2 million offset by premium growth of 3.4% and a decline in the loss ratio of 2.8%. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, AVIC
and Virginia Mutual operating income decreased $767 thousand as a result of increases in AVICs loss and LAE ratios and an increase in Virginia Mutuals loss ratio offset by AVIC production increases and increases in AVIC net investment
income. AIC and AGI operating income decreased $461 thousand as a result of increases in the LAE ratio of 0.2% and the expense ratio of 1.3% and decreases in net investment income of $1.6 million offset by premium growth of 2.9% and a decline in the
loss ratio of 1.8%.

Life insurance operating income increased $781 thousand, or 5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as a result of an
increase in the mortality ratio to 103% of expected for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006, compared to 95% of expected for the comparable period in 2005 offset by premiums and policy charges growth of 8% and net investment income
growth of 10%. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, operating income increased $1.3 million, or 29% as a result of a decrease in the mortality ratio to 103% of expected for the quarter compared to 111% of expected for the same
three-month period ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of $1.3 million in operating expenses and revenue growth of $3.1 million. Mortality, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents the ratio of actual to expected death claims. Therefore, for
the nine-month reporting period in 2006, the Company experienced

less favorable financial results when compared to the same periods in 2005 due to the higher mortality ratio. In contrast, the Company experienced more
favorable results in the three months ending September 30, 2006 when compared to the same period in 2005 due to a lower mortality ratio.

Noninsurance
operating income decreased $982 thousand to an operating profit of $132 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Agency operations increased operating income by $2 million, loan operations decreased operating income by $3.2
million, commercial leasing operations increased operating income by $480 thousand and ABC decreased operating income by $256 thousand. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005, Noninsurance operating
income increased $1.9 million to an operating profit of $1.9 million. Agency operations increased operating income by $870 thousand, loan operations increased operating income by $631 thousand, commercial leasing operations increased operating
income by $483 thousand and ABC decreased operating income by $77 thousand.

Corporate expenses decreased by $1.3 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 and $644 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2006. Current year results were impacted by increased costs on the Companys short-term borrowings offset by other expense reductions such as legal costs,
amortization of deferred acquisition costs and income taxes.

Realized investment gains, net of tax, declined $1.3 million, or 46%, for the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 as a result of lower gains on equity securities and increased losses on tax credit partnerships. On a pretax basis, writedowns increased from $1.3 million in the nine first months of 2005 to $2.1 million in 2006. For
the three months ended September 30, 2006, realized investment gains, net of tax, declined $517 thousand, or 59% as a result of increased losses on tax credit partnerships and writedowns during the quarter. On a pretax basis, writedowns
increased from $26 thousand in the three months ended September 30, 2005 to $293 thousand in the same period in 2006.

AVICs increase is a result of all nine states being active during 2006 and overall production increases. AVIC and
Virginia Mutual premium is reported as $35.7 million of personal lines earned premiums and $18.0 million of reinsurance assumed earned premiums in the table above for 2006 and $12.3 million of personal lines and $16.6 million of reinsurance assumed
premiums for 2005. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, AVIC and Virginia Mutual premium is reported as $13 million of personal lines earned premiums and $6.2 of reinsurance assumed earned premium in the table above and $6.7 million
of personal lines and $5.7 million of reinsurance assumed premiums for the same period in 2005.

AIC and AGI contributed $13.1 million of earned premium
growth during the first nine months of 2006 and $3.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2006. The growth from AIC and AGI is related to increases in personal lines. During the first nine months of 2006, earned premium for
homeowner and manufactured home increased $7.7 million, automobile increased $5.1 million and farmowner increased $1.1 million offset by increases in ceded catastrophe premium of $740 thousand.

The loss ratio for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 related to AVIC business (including 0.2% of storm losses) was 64.4% and Virginia Mutual was 49.6%, which
represents 7.1% of the overall loss ratio of 58.5%. For the comparable period in 2005, the loss ratio for AVIC was 60.1% and Virginia Mutual was 45.2%, which represents 3.6% of the overall loss ratio of 60.5%. Also included in the loss ratio are
3.1% of catastrophe losses for 2006 and 2.8% for 2005. The Company has $13.8 million in gross catastrophe losses during the nine months ending September 30, 2006 due to severe weather occurring in the first and second quarters compared to $11.6
million in similar losses in the first quarter of 2005. The effect of claims from these events impacted underwriting results by $0.11 and $0.09 per share in 2006 and 2005, respectively, after taxes. The Companys allocated share of catastrophe
loses is described in Note 2  Pooling Agreement in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under the section Catastrophe Protection Program included in the Companys annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K.

The loss ratio for the three months ended September 30, 2006 related to AVIC business was 65.8% and Virginia Mutual was 64.3%, which represents 8.2% of the overall
quarterly loss ratio of 59.0%. For the comparable period in 2005, the loss ratio for AVIC was 58.4% and Virginia Mutual was 45.4%, which represents 4.6% of the overall quarterly loss ratio of 59.2%.

The loss ratio for AIC and AGI declined from 61.1% as of September 30, 2005 to 58.3% as of September 30, 2006. The overall loss ratio declined 2.0% from 60.5%
in 2005 to 58.5% in 2006. For the quarter ending September 30, 2006, the loss ratio for AIC and AGI was 58.0%, a decrease of 1.8% from the comparable period in 2005. The overall quarterly loss ratio declined 0.2% from 59.2% in 2005 to 59.0% in
2006.

AVIC impacted the LAE ratio by 0.9% in the first nine months of 2006 compared to 0.3% for the same period in 2005. Technology costs have impacted
the LAE ratio by 0.1% in 2006. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, AVIC impacted the LAE ratio by 1.0% compared to 0.5% for the same period in 2005. Technology costs have impacted the LAE ratio by 0.1% for the three months ended
September 30, 2006.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the expense ratio has been impacted 3.3% by AVICs expense structure,
1.3% by Virginia Mutual, 0.4% with the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) and 0.9% due to technology costs. For the same period in 2005, the expense ratio was impacted 1.3% by AVIC and 1.4% by Virginia Mutual. For the three months ended
September 30, 2006, the expense ratio has been impacted 3.6% by AVICs expense structure, 1.2% by Virginia Mutual, 0.2% with the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) and 1.3% due to technology costs. For the same three-month period in 2005,
the expense ratio was impacted 2.0% by AVIC and 1.4% by Virginia Mutual.

The overall higher expense structures of AVIC and Virginia Mutual, along with the
impact of SFAS No. 123(R) and technology costs offset by a decline of 2.0% in the overall loss ratio produced an underwriting margin of 9.0% in 2006, compared with 11.0% in 2005. Underwriting margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents the
percentage of each premium dollar earned which remains after losses, loss adjustment expenses and other operating expenses. For the quarter ending September 30, 2006, the underwriting margin was 9.0% compared to 10.9% for the same period in
2005. This decrease of 1.9% was due to the overall higher expense structure for AVIC and Virginia Mutual, impact of SFAS No. 123(R) and increased technology costs offset by a slight decline in the overall quarterly loss ratio of 0.2%.

Other income and fees increased $3.4 million and $781 thousand for the nine and three months ended September 30,
2006, respectively, due to an increase in fee income from AVIC.

Net investment income decreased 2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, as a
result of lower partnership income and a decline in interest income on fixed maturities offset by increases in dividend income, short-term investments and interest income on collateral loans. For the three months ended September 30, 2006
compared to the same period in 2005, net investment income declined 9% due to lower partnership income and a decline in interest income on fixed maturities offset by increases in dividend income, short-term investments and interest income on
collateral loans.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, pretax operating income decreased $1.7 million and operating income, net of tax,
decreased $2.2 million as a result of the increase in the effective tax rate to 26.0% from 24.9%. The tax rate for 2005 was impacted by the Companys release of a reserve for tax exposure items while 2006 was impacted by a change in the
Companys tax allocation agreement. For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, pretax operating income decreased $1.9 million while operating income, net of tax, decreased $1.2 million with a slight decrease in the effective tax rate from
25.9% to 25.2%.

Realized investment losses, net of tax, increased $1.6 million, or 515%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as a result of
lower gains on equity securities offset by higher gains on fixed maturities and increased losses on tax credit partnerships. On a pretax basis, writedowns increased from $311 thousand in the first nine months of 2005 to $333 thousand in 2006. For
the three months ended September 30, 2006, realized investment losses, net of tax, increased $336 thousand as a result of increased losses on tax credit partnerships and lower gains on equity securities and fixed maturities. There were no
writedowns during the three-month periods ending September 30, 2006 and 2005.

Results of operations for this segment have been impacted by the following events in 2006:



| |  |  | On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R).
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Effective January 1, 2006, a new life policy administration system was implemented with three new product offerings:
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | return of premium level term life
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | single premium non-qualified annuity
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | flexible premium non-qualified annuity
| | - |  | --------------------------------------

Lifes premiums and policy
charges increased $4.8 million, or 8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $1.5 million or 8% for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

Life insurance premiums increased $3.6 million or, 12% for the first nine months of 2006 and $1.1 million or, 10% for the third quarter of 2006. This growth is attributable to increases in term life insurance premiums of $3.5 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. In addition, term life policies inforce on a year to date basis have increased 7.8%. During January 2006, Life began offering a return of
premium level term life product which contributed $2.2 million of the $3.6 million increase in life insurance premiums for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $900 thousand of the $1.1 million increase for the three months ended
September 30, 2006.

Life insurance policy charges increased $1.2 million during the first nine months of 2006 and $421 thousand for the three months
ended September 30, 2006 primarily due to an increase in universal life policy charges. This growth is attributable to increased fund balances, for which policy charges are assessed, and a slight increase of 0.1% in the number of universal life
policies inforce.

On a statutory accounting basis, issued annualized new business premium increased by 31% to $14.2 million with a total volume of $2.8
billion of insurance being issued for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The new product offerings for 2006 contributed as follows: return of premium level term  5,561 policies issued, $3.9 million of issued annualized new business
premium and volume of $993 million of insurance issued; annuities  50 policies issued and $1.1 million of issued annualized new business premium. The new product offerings for the three months ended September 30, 2006 contributed as

new business premium.

Total life insurance inforce as of September 30, 2006 increased $1.4 billion, with term insurance increasing $1.4 billion, or
13% compared to the same period in 2005. Annualized premiums for inforce business increased 6%, or $7.4 million, with term insurance increasing 16% or $5.2 million. Policies inforce increased 1.1% for the nine months ending September 30, 2006
compared to the same period in 2005. The persistency ratio for life business was 91.0% at September 30, 2006, compared to 91.1% at September 30, 2005.

The mortality ratio increased to 103% of expected in the first nine months of 2006 from 95% of expected in the first nine months of 2005 and for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, decreased to 103% of expected from 111% of expected
for the same period in 2005. The result was an increase of $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $1.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006 in benefits and claims expense. Operating expenses have
increased $35 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 with SFAS No. 123(R) adding $169 thousand, the new policy administration system adding $688 thousand, travel expense increases of $745 thousand offset by decreases in
legal costs of $1.3 million due to net legal reserve reductions of $1.2 million. Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2006 have decreased $1.3 million with SFAS No. 123(R) adding $21 thousand and the new policy
administration system adding $267 thousand offset by a reduction of $1.7 million in legal reserves during the period. Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs have increased both for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006
as a result of growth in deferred costs related to consistent new business production increases in prior periods.

Invested assets increased 5.3% since
December 31, 2005, while net investment income increased 10%. Interest income on fixed maturities increased 9% and 15% during the nine-month and three-month periods ending September 30, 2006, respectively. Realized investment gains, net of
tax, increased $325 thousand,

writedowns increased from $998 thousand in the first nine months of 2005 to $1.8 million in 2006. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, realized investment gains, net of tax, decreased $143 thousand as a result of writedowns during the
quarter. On a pretax basis, writedowns increased from $26 thousand in the three months ended September 30, 2005 to $293 thousand in the same period in 2006.

NONINSURANCE OPERATIONS

The following discussion relates to the Companys noninsurance subsidiaries, Financial, Vision, AAM, AAG and
ABC.

Results of operations for this segment have been impacted by the following events in 2005 and 2006:



| |  |  | On January 3, 2005, the Company completed the purchase of Vision, a full-service managing general agency that currently writes nonstandard automobile insurance policies in nine
states. In addition, during 2005, Vision wrote a limited amount of homeowner business through other carriers as a general agency. Vision is headquartered in Brentwood, Tennessee and provides all underwriting, claims, actuarial and financial services
on behalf of its contracted carriers, which includes AVIC.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | On December 31, 2005, the Company completed the sale of a substantial portion of its commercial lease portfolio and other assets, net of related liabilities, to OFC Servicing

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



| |  |  | On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R).
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | During the second quarter of 2006, management discovered fraudulent activity occurring within Financial. The misconduct was determined to be limited to the acts of a single person.
As a result, the Company has provided for a charge of $5.5 million on a pretax basis and $3.6 million on an after tax basis or a $0.04 impact on earnings per share in the second quarter to write-off these fraudulently originated loans.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | During the third quarter of 2006, the Company recorded estimated insurance recoveries relating to the fraudulent loan activity of $2 million on a pretax basis and $1.3 million on an
after tax basis or a $0.02 impact on earnings per share in the third quarter. Such recoveries were received by the Company in October 2006.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Noninsurance operating income decreased $982 thousand to an operating profit of $132 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to operating income of $1.1 million in 2005. For the three months ended
September 30, 2006, Noninsurance operating income increased $1.9 million to an operating profit of $1.9 million compared to operating income of $30 thousand for the same period of 2005. Included in operating expenses for this segment is $82
thousand of SFAS No. 123(R) expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $27 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

Agency operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 produced an increase in net income of $2 million, with all of the increase attributable to increased production by Vision for AVIC. For the three months ended
September 30, 2006, agency operations increased net income by $870 thousand.

During June 2006, loans were written off totaling $5.5 million as a
result of fraudulent activity by one agent. During September 2006, the Company accrued estimated insurance recoveries of $2 million. Such recoveries were received in October 2006. Despite the net increases in loan losses, the loan operations in
Financial continued to grow with a 6.2% increase in the loan portfolio, an increase in the loan portfolio yield to 7.79% from 7.30%, and a delinquency ratio of 1.87%. Interest rate increases during the year reduced margins slightly. Equity in net
earnings (after internal capital charge) of MidCountry decreased $309 thousand, or 24.2% for the year. MidCountry had an increase in equity earnings of $81 thousand offset by internal capital costs increase of $390 thousand. These components of
Financial produced a net loss of $483 thousand for 2006 compared to net income of $2.7 million in 2005. For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, Financial produced net income of $1.6 million due to the accrual of estimated insurance recoveries
of $2 million during the period compared to net income of $1 million for the same period in 2005.

Commercial lease operations in Financial produced a net
loss of $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2006 as a result of servicing fee expense and legal expenses compared to a net loss for the same period in 2005 of $2 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, the commercial lease
operations produced a net loss of $448 thousand, a $483 thousand improvement over the same period in 2005.

ABC had operating income of $121 thousand for the first nine months of 2006, compared to operating income of $377
thousand for the same period in 2005. The decrease of $256 thousand is a result of increased benefit expenses and a slight decrease in net investment income. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, ABC had operating loss of $73 thousand
compared to operating income of $5 thousand for the same period in 2005.

CORPORATE OPERATIONS

The following discussion relates to the Companys corporate operations and intercompany eliminations between the Company and its subsidiaries.

Corporate expenses, including the impact of eliminations, decreased $1.3 million during the first nine months of 2006 and $644 thousand during the three months ended
September 30, 2006 due primarily to an increase in borrowing costs offset by the reversal of an elimination of profits generated by transactions between the property casualty segment and Vision from 2005, a change in the Companys tax
allocation agreement and decreases in legal costs. Unfavorable increases in short-term interest rates on the commercial paper borrowings attributable to corporate functions led the Companys interest expense to rise by $1.4 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 and $465 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The weighted average rate increased one hundred fifty basis points from 3.78% at September 30, 2005 to 5.28% at September 30, 2006.
Included in operating expenses for this segment is $77 thousand of SFAS No. 123(R) expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and $12 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

INVESTMENTS

The Company has historically produced positive cash flow
from operations which has resulted in increasing amounts of funds available for investment and, consequently, higher investment income. Investment income is also affected by investment yields. Information about cash flows, invested assets and yields
are presented below for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005:



|                                                           |  |                                 |    |  |      |   
|---------------------------------------------------------- |  | ------------------------------- | -- |  | ---- | --
|                                                           |  | Nine Months Ended September 30, |   
|                                                           |  | 2006                            |    |  | 2005 |   
|Increase (decrease) in cash flow from operations           |  | 19.7                            | %  |  | (9.7 | )%
|Increase in invested assets since January 1, 2006 and 2005 |  | 4.4                             | %  |  | 3.8  | % 
|Investment yield rate                                      |  | 5.6                             | %  |  | 6.1  | % 
|Increase (decrease) in net investment income               |  | (4.8                            | )% |  | 5.4  | % 

As a result of the overall positive cash flows from operations, invested assets grew 4.4% since December 31,
2005 while net investment income decreased 4.8%. The increase in cash flow from operations in the first nine months of 2006 was due primarily to increases in policy liabilities. Property casualty underwriting income of $40.8 million in the first
nine months of 2006 and $45.2 million in the first nine months of 2005 positively impacted cash flow from operations. The premium collection from the COLI plan in the life insurance subsidiary provided positive cash flow in the first quarter of both
periods. A net decrease in cash resulted from decreased borrowings primarily resulting from positive cash flows and payments received as consideration for receivables from affiliates. During the first three quarters of 2006, the Company also
increased its investment in fixed maturity securities by approximately $49.6 million. The Companys decrease in net investment income resulted primarily from the write off of loans in Financials portfolio, increased borrowing costs,
reduced income from an equity-method investment in MidCountry and lower partnership earnings. These items were partially offset by increased earnings on fixed maturities, equity securities and short-term investments.

The overall yield rate, calculated using amortized cost, declined in the first nine months of 2006 to 5.6%. The Company had net realized investment gains before income
taxes of $2.4 million in the first nine months of 2006 compared to net realized investment gains of $4.4 million during the same period in 2005. These gains are primarily from sales of equity securities offset by writedowns of equity securities of
$2.1 million. Such realized gains on sales of equity securities are the result of market conditions and therefore can fluctuate from period to period.

The majority of the Companys investment portfolio consists of fixed maturities that are diverse as to both
industry and geographic concentration. In the first nine months of 2006, the overall mix of investments shifted due to additional investments in short-term investments and partnerships yielding tax credits.

The rating of the Companys portfolio of fixed maturities using the Standard & Poors rating categories is as follows at September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005:



|                                       |  |                    |   |  |                   |  
|-------------------------------------- |  | ------------------ | - |  | ----------------- | -
|                                       |  | September 30, 2006 |   |  | December 31, 2005 |  
|AAA to A-                              |  | 92.9               | % |  | 90.8              | %
|BBB+ to BBB-                           |  | 6.0                |   |  | 7.3               |  
|BB+ and below (below investment grade) |  | 1.1                |   |  | 1.9               |  
|                                       |  |                    |   |  |                   |  
|                                       |  | 100.0              | % |  | 100.0             | %
|                                       |  |                    |   |  |                   |  

At September 30, 2006, all securities in the fixed maturity portfolio were rated by an outside rating
service. The Company considers bonds with a quality rating of BB+ and below to be below investment grade or high yield bonds (also called junk bonds).

At
September 30, 2006, 47.0% of fixed maturities were mortgage-backed securities. Such securities are comprised of Collateral Mortgage Obligations (CMOs) and pass through securities. Based on reviews of the Companys portfolio of
mortgage-backed securities, the impact of prepayment risk on the Companys financial position and results from operations is not believed to be significant. For further information on market risks, reference is made to Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. At September 30, 2006, the Companys total portfolio of fixed maturities had gross unrealized
gains of $30.7 million and gross unrealized losses of $17.2 million. All securities are priced by nationally recognized pricing services or by broker/dealers securities firms. During the first nine months of 2006, the Company sold $80.2 million in
fixed maturities available for sale. These sales resulted in gross realized gains of $1.2 million and gross realized losses of $582 thousand. During the same period in 2005, the Company sold $90.9 million in fixed maturities available for sale.
These sales resulted in gross realized gains of $427 thousand and gross realized losses of $2.0 million.

The Company monitors its level of investments in
high yield fixed maturities and its level of equity investments in companies that issue high yield debt securities. Management believes the level of such investments is not significant to the Companys financial condition. At September 30,
2006, the Company had unrealized losses in such investments of $635 thousand compared to unrealized gains of $134 thousand at December 31, 2005. The Company recognized a net gain of $503 thousand on the disposal of high yield debt securities in
the first nine months of 2006 after recognizing a net gain of $80 thousand on similar disposals in the first three quarters of 2005.

It is the Companys policy to write down securities for which declines in value have been deemed to be other than
temporary. The amount written down represents the difference between the cost or amortized cost and the fair value at the time of determining the security was impaired. Quarterly reviews are conducted by the Company to ascertain which securities, if
any, have become impaired in value. Investments in securities entail general market risk as well as company specific risk. During the first nine months of 2006, the Company wrote down seven equity securities totaling $2.1 million for which declines
in value were deemed to be other than temporary. During the first nine months of 2005, the Company wrote down three bond issues totaling $671 thousand and four equity securities totaling $638 thousand for which the decline in value was deemed to be
other than temporary. There were no non-performing bonds included in the portfolio at either September 30, 2006 or December 31, 2005.

The
Companys investment in collateral loans and commercial leases consists primarily of consumer loans and commercial leases originated by the finance subsidiary. The majority of the commercial lease portfolio was sold in the fourth quarter of
2005. Automobiles, equipment and other property collateralize the Companys loans and leases. At September 30, 2006, the delinquency ratio on the loan portfolio was 1.87% or $2.5 million. Loans charged off in the first nine months of 2006
totaled $4.1 million, including net charge-offs of $3.5 million recorded following the investigation of an agents misconduct. At September 30, 2006, the Company maintained an allowance for loan losses of $1.6 million or 1.2% of the
outstanding loan balance. In addition, at September 30, 2006, the Company maintained an allowance for lease losses of $1.2 million or 43.3% of the outstanding lease balance. Leases charged off during the first three quarters of 2006 totaled
$328 thousand. Other significant long-term investments include assets leased under operating leases, partnership investments and other equity-method investments.

The Company periodically invests in affordable housing tax credit partnerships. At September 30, 2006, the Company had legal and binding commitments to fund partnerships of this type in the amount of $35.5 million. The Companys
carrying value of such investments was $63.9 million at September 30, 2006.

The Companys finance subsidiary has invested $49.6 million in
MidCountry, a financial services holding company. Financial accounts for earnings from MidCountry using the equity method of accounting. Pretax operating income was $969 thousand in the first nine months of 2006 compared to $1.3 million for the same
period in 2005.

INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate
in the first nine months of 2006 was 27.0% compared to 28.2% for the full year 2005 and 27.2% for the first nine months of 2005. The decrease from the 2005 full year effective rate is due to a 2005 year end adjustment for taxes relating to ABC and
an increase in investment by the Company in affordable housing tax credit partnerships in 2006. Based on information available at September 30, 2006, the Company currently anticipates the effective tax rate recorded in the financial statements
for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2006 to remain at 27.0% for all of 2006.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

Inflation increases consumers needs for both life and property casualty insurance coverage. Inflation increases claims incurred by property casualty insurers as
property repairs, replacements and medical expenses increase. Such cost increases reduce profit margins to the extent that rate increases are not maintained on an adequate and timely basis. Since inflation has remained relatively low in recent
years, financial results have not been significantly impacted by inflation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company receives funds from its subsidiaries consisting of dividends, payments for funding federal income taxes, and reimbursement of expenses incurred at the
corporate level for the subsidiaries. These funds are used for paying dividends to stockholders, corporate interest and expenses, federal income taxes, and for funding additional investments in its subsidiaries operations.

The Companys subsidiaries require cash in order to fund policy acquisition costs, claims, other policy benefits,
interest expense, general operating expenses, and dividends to the Company. The major sources of the subsidiaries liquidity are operations and cash provided by maturing or liquidated investments. A significant portion of the Companys
investment portfolio consists of readily marketable securities that can be sold for cash. Based on a review of the Companys matching of asset and liability maturities and on the interest sensitivity of the majority of policies inforce,
management believes the ultimate exposure to loss from interest rate fluctuations is not significant.

Primary Source of Liquidity

Net cash provided by operating activities approximated $101 million and $84 million in the first nine months of 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such net positive cash flows
provide the foundation of the Companys assets/liability management program and are the primary drivers of the Companys liquidity. As previously discussed, the Company also maintains a diversified portfolio of fixed maturity and equity
securities that provide a secondary source of liquidity should net cash flows from operating activities prove inadequate to fund current operating needs. Management believes that such an eventuality is unlikely given the Companys product mix
(primarily short-duration personal lines property casualty products), its ability to adjust premium rates (subject to regulatory oversight) to reflect emerging loss and expense trends and its catastrophe reinsurance program, amongst other factors.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

In evaluating
current and potential financial performance of any corporation, investors often wish to view the contractual obligations and commitments of the entity. The Company has contractual obligations in the form of long-term debt, benefit obligations to
policyholders and leases. Leases have primarily been originated by its insurance subsidiaries and Vision.

The Companys contractual obligations at
September 30, 2006 are summarized below:

|(1) | Long-term debt is assumed to be settled at its contractual maturity. Interest on long-term debt is calculated using interest rates in effect at September 30, 2006 for
variable rate debt and is shown in the table through the maturity of the underlying debt. Interest on long-term debt is accrued and settled monthly, thus the timing and amount of such payments may vary from the calculated value. For
additional information refer to Note 8, Commercial Paper and Notes Payable, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

|(2) | The anticipated payout of property casualty loss and loss adjustment expense reserves are based upon historical payout patterns. Both the timing and amount of these payments
may vary from the payment indicated. At September 30, 2006, total property casualty reserves in the above table of $175,849,138 are gross of salvage and subrogation recoverables of $9,846,287.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(3) | Future life insurance obligations consist primarily of estimated future contingent benefit payments on policies inforce at December 31, 2005. These estimated payments
are computed using assumptions for future mortality, morbidity and persistency. In contrast to this table, the majority of Lifes obligations are recorded on the balance sheet at the current account values and do not incorporate an
expectation of future market growth, interest crediting or future deposits. Therefore, the estimated future life insurance obligations presented in this table significantly exceed the liabilities recorded in the Companys consolidated
balance sheet. Due to the significance of the assumptions used, the actual amount and timing of such payments may differ significantly from the estimated amounts. Management believes that currents assets, future premiums and investment
income will be sufficient to fund all future life insurance obligations.

Certain commercial commitments in the table above include items that may, in the future, require recognition
within the financial statements of the Company. Events leading to the call of a guarantee, the failure of the policy administration system being developed for use by the life insurance operations to perform properly and achievement of specific
metrics by Vision are examples of situations that would impact the financial position and results of the Company.

Credit Risk

Assessment of credit risk is a critical factor in the Companys consumer loan and commercial leasing subsidiary. All credit decisions are made by personnel trained
to limit loss exposure from unfavorable risks. In attempting to manage risk, the Company regularly reviews delinquent accounts and adjusts reserves for potential loan losses and potential lease losses. To the extent these reserves are inadequate at
the time an account is written off, income would be negatively impacted. In addition, the Company monitors interest rates relative to the portfolio duration. Rising interest rates on commercial paper issued, the primary source of funding portfolio
growth, could reduce the interest rate spread if the Company failed to adequately adjust interest rates charged to customers.

Debt

Total borrowings decreased $4.6 million in the first nine months of 2006 to $300.1 million. The majority of the short-term debt is commercial paper issued by the Company.
At September 30, 2006, the Company had $202.3 million in commercial paper at rates ranging from 5.28% to 5.29% with maturities ranging from October 2, 2006 to October 20, 2006. The Company intends to continue to use the commercial
paper program as a major source to fund the consumer loan portfolio and other corporate short-term needs. Backup lines of credit are in place up to $300 million. The backup lines agreements contain usual and customary covenants requiring the Company
to meet certain operating levels. The Company has maintained full compliance with all such covenants. The Company has A-1+ and P-1 commercial paper ratings from Standard & Poors and Moodys Investors Service, respectively. The
commercial paper is guaranteed by two affiliates, Mutual and Fire. In addition, the Company had $27.8 million in short-term debt outstanding to affiliates at September 30, 2006 with interest payable monthly at rates established using the
existing commercial paper rate and renewable for multiples of 30-day periods at the commercial paper rate then applicable.

Included in total borrowings is
a variable rate note issued by the Company during the second quarter of 2002 in the amount of $70 million. This note is payable in its entirety on June 1, 2017 with interest payments due monthly. The Company is using the proceeds of this note
to partially fund the consumer loan and commercial lease portfolios of its finance subsidiary. The Company has entered into an interest rate swap contract in order to achieve its objective of hedging 100 percent of its variable-rate long-term
interest payments over the first five years of the note. Under the interest rate swap, the Company receives variable interest payments and makes fixed interest rate payments, thereby fixing the rate on such debt at 4.945%.

Company Stock

On October 25, 1993, the Company established a
Stock Incentive Plan (the 1993 Plan). The 1993 Plan was subsequently amended on April 26, 2001. On April 28, 2005, the Companys stockholders approved the 2005 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the 2005 Plan). This Plan
amends and restates the 1993 Plan. The 2005 Plan permits the grant of a variety of equity-based incentives based upon the Companys common stock, par value $1.00 per share. These include stock options, which may be either

incentive stock options as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or nonqualified
options. The 2005 Plan also permits awards of Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units and Performance Shares. A maximum of 3,800,000 shares of stock may be issued under the 2005 Plan. During the first three
quarters of 2006, the Company granted 74,000 awards of restricted stock to certain officers and issued 452,000 nonqualified options under the 2005 Plan. At September 30, 2006, 3,191,906 shares were available for grant.

In October 1989, the Companys Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to 4,000,000 shares of its outstanding common
stock in the open market or in negotiated transactions in such quantities and at such times and prices as management may decide. The Board increased the number of shares authorized for repurchase by 4,000,000 in both March 1999 and September 2001,
bringing the total number of shares authorized for repurchase to 12,000,000. Repurchases of 97,500 shares totaling $1,512,869 were made during the second and third quarters of 2006 (refer to Part II, Item 2 - Unregistered Sales of Equity
Securities and Use of Proceeds of this Form 10-Q). At September 30, 2006, the total repurchased was 8,364,123 shares at a cost of $66,896,253. The Company has reissued 3,045,855 treasury shares as a result of option exercises and sold 1,607,767
shares through funding its dividend reinvestment plan. In January 2005, the Company issued 325,035 non-registered shares to fund a portion of the acquisition of Vision.

Reserves for Policyholder Benefits

Due to the sensitivity of the products offered by the life subsidiary to interest
rate fluctuations, the Company must assess the risk of surrenders exceeding expectations factored into its pricing program. Internal actuaries are used to determine the need for modifying the Companys policies on surrender charges and
assessing the Companys competitiveness with regard to rates offered. Cash surrenders paid to policyholders on a statutory basis totaled $16.0 million and $13.0 million in the first nine months of 2006 and 2005, respectively. This level of
surrenders is within the Companys pricing expectations. Historical persistency rates indicate a normal pattern of surrender activity in both periods. The structure of the surrender charges is such that persistency is encouraged. The majority
of the policies inforce have surrender charges which grade downward over a 12 to 15 year period. At September 30, 2006, the total amount of cash that would be required to fund all amounts subject to surrender was $688.0 million.

Reserves for Property Casualty Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses

Losses and loss adjustment expenses payable are managements best estimates at a given point in time of what the Company expects to pay claimants, based on known facts, circumstances, historical trends, emergence patterns and
settlement patterns. Reserves for reported losses are established on a case-by-case basis with the amounts determined by claims adjusters based on the Companys reserving practices, which take into account the type of risk, the circumstances
surrounding each claim and policy provisions relating to types of loss. Loss and loss adjustment expense reserves for incurred claims that have not yet been reported (IBNR) are estimated based primarily on historical emergence patterns with
consideration given to many variables including statistical information, inflation, legal developments, storm loss estimates, and economic conditions.

On
an interim basis, the Companys internal actuarial staff reviews the direct emergence for each line of business compared to the expected emergence implied by the most recent annual review. If the emergence is not within acceptable bounds, the
opinion on reserve adequacy is revised and reserve amounts are adjusted. Otherwise, IBNR reserves are adjusted as changes in exposure indicate that additional reserves are needed until the next annual review is completed.

Management establishes reserves for loss adjustment expenses that are not attributable to a specific claim. These reserves are referred to as Defense and Cost
Containment (DCC) and Adjusting and Other Expenses (AO). DCC and AO reserves are recorded to establish the liability for settling and defending claims that have been incurred, but have not yet been completely settled.

For AO, historical ratios of AO to paid losses are developed, and then applied to the current outstanding reserves. The method uses a traditional assumption that 50% of
the expenses are realized when the claim is open, and the other 50% are incurred when the claim is closed. The method also assumes that the underlying claims process and mix of business do not change materially over time.

Refer to Note 2  Pooling Agreement in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K
for a detailed discussion of the Companys Pooling Agreement.

Total losses and loss adjustment expenses payable increased $6.4 million, or
4.0% from December 31, 2005 to September 30, 2006. The reserve increase is primarily attributable to exposure level changes at the product level. The current year development of the prior years ultimate liability does not reflect any
changes in the Companys fundamental claims reserving practices or actuarial assumptions.

The risks and uncertainties inherent in the estimates
include, but are not limited to, actual settlement experience being different from historical data and trends, changes in business and economic conditions, court decisions creating unanticipated liabilities, ongoing interpretation of policy
provisions by the courts,

inconsistent decisions in lawsuits regarding coverage and additional information discovered before settlement of claims. The Companys results of
operations and financial condition could be impacted, perhaps significantly, in the future if the ultimate payments required to settle claims vary from the liability currently recorded.

Activity in the liability for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses is summarized below:

There was no change in actuarial assumptions or methodology associated with the development of prior accident
years. The current and prior periods unfavorable and favorable development is the result of normal fluctuations and uncertainty associated with loss reserve development.

The Companys established reserves for its share of pooled losses and loss adjustment expenses reserves at September 30, 2006 are $175.8 million. At interim periods, point estimates are not established but
rather the Companys internal actuarial staff reviews the direct emergence for each line of business compared to the expected emergence implied by the most recent annual review as a basis for adjusting carried reserves.

Reserve ranges provide a quantification of the variability in the reserve projections, which is often referred to as the standard deviation or error term, while the
point estimates establish a mean, or expected value for the ultimate reserve. Managements best estimate of loss and loss adjustment expense reserves considers the actuarial point estimate and expected variation to establish an appropriate
position within the range. Management establishes reserves slightly above mid-point to include an estimated provision for uncertainty and to minimize the necessity for changing historical estimates. Although management uses many internal and
external resources, as well as multiple established methodologies to calculate reserves, there is no method for determining the exact ultimate liability.

Based on a review of historical ultimate development patterns, Management has estimated that one standard deviation from mid-point for ultimate development has a 2.2% favorable development opportunity and a 0.2% unfavorable development
opportunity. The potential impact of loss reserve variability on net income is quantifiable using a standard deviation and carried reserve amounts listed above. To the extent that ultimate development is favorable compared to expectation, the
potential reserve decrease is $3.9 million on a pretax basis. Likewise, if ultimate development is unfavorable compared to expectation, the reserve increase is $352 thousand on a pretax basis.

An important assumption underlying the reserve estimation methods for the property casualty lines is that the loss cost trends implicitly built into the loss and LAE
patterns will continue into the future. Some of the

factors that could influence assumptions arise from a variety of sources including tort law changes, development of new medical procedures, social inflation,
and other inflationary changes in costs beyond assumed levels. Inflation changes have much less impact on short-tail personal lines reserves and more impact on long-tail commercial lines. The Company does not have any significant long-tailed lines
of business, so the actuarial assumptions and methodologies are consistent across all lines of business, regardless of the expected payout patterns. This is further evidenced by the fact that approximately 90% of ultimate losses for a given accident
year are reported in the first year and by the end of the second year more than 99% are reported.

Reinsurance

Property Casualty - Ceded

The property casualty subsidiaries of the
Company follow the customary industry practice of reinsuring a portion of their exposures and paying to the reinsurers a portion of the premiums received. Insurance is ceded principally to reduce net liability on individual risks or for individual
loss occurrences, including catastrophic losses. Although reinsurance does not legally discharge the individual subsidiary from primary liability for the full amount of limits applicable under their policies, it does make the assuming reinsurer
liable to the extent of the reinsurance ceded. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of credit risk arising from similar geographic regions, activities, or economic characteristics of the
reinsurance to minimize exposure to significant losses from reinsurance insolvencies. None of the reinsurance receivable amounts have been deemed to be uncollectible at September 30, 2006.

Each subsidiary is party to working cover reinsurance treaties for property casualty lines. Under the property per risk excess of loss treaty, each subsidiary is
responsible for the first $600,000 of each covered loss, and the reinsurers are responsible for 100% of the excess over $600,000 of covered loss with a maximum recovery of $1.4 million. The rates for this reinsurance are negotiated annually. The
subsidiaries also make use of facultative reinsurance for unique risk situations.

The Companys subsidiaries participate in a catastrophe protection
program through the Pooling Agreement. Under this program, the Company participates in only its pooled share of a lower catastrophe pool limit unless the losses exceed an upper catastrophe pool limit. In cases where the upper catastrophe limit is
exceeded on a 100% basis, the Companys share in the loss would be based upon its amount of statutory surplus relative to other members of the group as of the most recently filed annual statement. Lower and upper catastrophe pool limits are
adjusted periodically due to increases in insured property risks. Refer to Note 2  Pooling Agreement, Catastrophe Protection Program section in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys annual report
for 2005 on Form 10-K for further details.

The fluctuation in working cover losses incurred is due to normal reserving activities as additional information
is obtained regarding a claim along with claim settlements made during the year. The increase in catastrophe earned premium in 2006 is the result of renegotiation of the catastrophe program.

The Companys subsidiaries are participants in a Pooling Agreement with the Mutual Group in which each participant cedes premiums, losses and underwriting expenses
on all of their direct property casualty business to Mutual, and Mutual in turn retrocedes to each participant a specified portion of premiums, losses and underwriting expenses based on each participants pooling percentage. Refer to Note 2
 Pooling Agreement and Note 13  Reinsurance in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K for further information.

Life - Ceded

The Companys life insurance subsidiary reinsures
portions of its risks with other insurers under yearly renewable term agreements and coinsurance agreements. Generally, Life will not retain more than $500,000 of individual life insurance on a single risk with the exception of COLI and group
policies where the retention is limited to $100,000 per individual. The amount retained on an individual life will vary depending upon age and mortality prospects of the risk. At September 30, 2006, Life had total insurance inforce of $22.4
billion of which $2.7 billion was ceded to other insurers. In addition, reserve credits of $8.0 million have been taken as a result of the ceding of these inforce amounts to other insurers. Although reinsurance does not legally discharge the
subsidiary from primary liability for the full amount of a policy claim, it does make the assuming reinsurer liable to the extent of the reinsurance ceded. The Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers and monitors concentration of
credit risk arising from similar geographic regions, activities, or economic characteristics of the reinsurance to minimize exposure to significant losses from reinsurance insolvencies. None of the reinsurance receivable amounts have been deemed to
be uncollectible at September 30, 2006.

The increase in losses incurred is the result of growth in claims reported with reinsurance ceded coverage as well
as increases in the dollar amounts of such claims. Receivables on unpaid losses increased in 2005 due to a large claim that occurred in December.

Effective July 1, 2006, Life entered into a new reinsurance ceded agreement covering all inforce business for claims resulting from accidents. This agreement is applicable for all retained claim amounts with Life retaining the first
$7.5 million of claims.

Property Casualty  Assumed

The Company participates in a small number of involuntary pools and underwriting associations on a direct basis and receives a proportional share through the Pooling Agreement. In addition, the Company receives a proportional share of
Fires quota share reinsurance treaty with Virginia Mutual through the Pooling Agreement. AVIC directly participates in a reinsurance program in the state of Texas assuming non-standard automobile business which is retroceded to the pool.

Geographic Concentration

The Companys business
is concentrated geographically in Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi. Accordingly, unusually severe storms or other disasters in these contiguous states might have a more significant effect on the Companys financial condition and operating
results than on a more geographically diversified insurance company. However, the Companys catastrophe protection program, which began November 1, 1996, reduced the potential adverse impact and earnings volatility caused by such
catastrophe exposures.

Legal Environment

Lawsuits
brought by policyholders or third-party claimants can create volatility in the Companys earnings. The Company maintains in-house legal staff and, as needed, secures the services of external legal firms to present and protect its position.
Certain legal proceedings are in process at September 30, 2006. These proceedings involve alleged breaches of contract, torts, including bad faith and fraud claims, and miscellaneous other causes of action. These lawsuits involve claims for
unspecified amounts of compensatory damages, mental anguish damages and punitive damages. Costs for these and similar proceedings, including accruals for outstanding cases, are included in the financial statements of the Company. Management
periodically reviews reserves established to cover potential costs of litigation including legal fees and potential damage assessments and adjusts them based on their best estimates. It should be noted that in Mississippi and Alabama, where the
Company has substantial business, the likelihood of a judgment in any given suit, including a large mental anguish and/or punitive damage award by a jury, bearing little or no relation to actual damages, continues to exist, creating the potential
for unpredictable material adverse financial results.

Increased public interest in the availability and affordability of insurance has prompted
legislative, regulatory and judicial activity in several states. This includes efforts to contain insurance prices, restrict underwriting practices and risk classifications, mandate rate reductions and refunds, eliminate or reduce exemptions from
antitrust laws and generally expand regulation. Because of Alabamas low automobile

rates as compared to rates in most other states, the Company does not expect the type of punitive legislation and initiatives found in some states to be a
factor in its primary market in the immediate future. In 1999, the Alabama legislature passed a tort reform package that has helped to curb some of the excessive litigation experienced in the late 1990s.

FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In September 2005, the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 05-1, Accounting by Insurance Enterprises for Deferred Acquisition Costs in Connection With Modifications or Exchanges of Insurance Contracts. This statement provides
guidance on accounting for deferred acquisition costs on an internal replacement, defined as a modification in product benefits, rights, coverages, or features that occurs by the exchange of an existing contract for a new contract, or by amendment,
endorsement, or rider to an existing contract, or by the election of a benefit, right, coverage, or feature within an existing contract. The guidance in this pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The
Company plans to adopt this statement for internal replacements beginning January 1, 2007. The Company is currently preparing for the adoption of this statement and continues to assess the impact this statement will have on its financial
position or results of operations at the time of adoption.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial
Instruments, an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140, which eliminates the exception from applying SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, to interests on securitized financial assets
so similar instruments are accounted for similarly regardless of the form. This Statement also allows the election of fair value measurement at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument is subject to a
remeasurement event, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, in cases in which a derivative would otherwise have to bifurcate. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued in an entitys first fiscal year
beginning after September 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that this statement will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

The FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an Amendment of Statement No. 140, in March 2006. This statement will
require entities to recognize a servicing asset or liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations. It also requires all separately recognized servicing assets
and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value and allows a choice of either the amortization or fair value measurement method for subsequent measurement. SFAS No. 156 is effective for annual periods beginning after
September 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that this statement will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

The FASB ratified the consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net
Presentation), in June 2006. This consensus requires disclosure of the accounting policy employed by the Company for any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is directly related to a revenue-producing transaction. The Company does not
anticipate that EITF Issue No. 06-3, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

In July 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.
FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and
deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, financial disclosures, and transition. This interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this interpretation may have on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to U.S. GAAP guidance requiring the use of fair value.
It also outlines the framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this
statement may have on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

The FASB also issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other
Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R), in September 2006. This statement will require a company to recognize on a prospective basis an asset for a plans overfunded status or a liability for a
plans underfunded status in its statement of financial position, to measure a plans assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employers fiscal year, and to recognize changes in the funded
status of a defined postretirement plan in the year in which the changes occur as a component of other comprehensive income. The requirement to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan and the disclosure requirements of the statement are
effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. The requirement to measure the plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employers fiscal year-end statement of financial position is effective for fiscal years
ending after December 15, 2008. The Company has no management or operational employees. Refer to Item 1. Business of the Companys 2005 annual report on Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of personnel. As discussed
in Note 10, the Company executed a Plan of Conversion of Virginia Mutual Insurance Company during the third quarter of 2006. Virginia Mutual Insurance Company has a frozen defined benefit retirement plan. Subject to policyholder approval,
Virginia Mutual Insurance Company will be restructured to form a new subsidiary of Alfa Corporation effective January 1, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this statement will have on its financial position or results of
operations at the time it is adopted.

The staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 108, Considering the
Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB 108 requires that public companies use a dual-approach in assessing the quantitative effects of financial misstatements.
This dual approach includes both an income statement focused assessment and a balance sheet focused assessment. This bulletin must be applied to financial statements for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The Company does not
anticipate that SAB 108 will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations at the time it is adopted.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Companys objectives in managing
its investment portfolio are to maximize investment income and investment returns while minimizing overall credit risk. Investment strategies are developed based on many factors including underwriting results, overall tax position, regulatory
requirements, and fluctuations in interest rates. Investment decisions are made by management and approved by the Board of Directors. Market risk represents the potential for loss due to adverse changes in the fair value of securities. The market
risk related to the Companys fixed maturity portfolio is primarily interest rate risk and prepayment risk. The market risk related to the Companys equity portfolio is equity price risk. For further information, reference is made to
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company has evaluated the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys
Disclosure Committee and Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures are effective.

There were no changes in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection
with the foregoing evaluation that occurred during the Companys last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

During the second quarter of 2006, the Company discovered irregularities in certain loan transactions in Financial. It was determined that the irregularities were
limited to a single employee and mostly a single loan type. Evaluation of Financials internal control environment during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 did not result in any changes in the Companys internal controls over
financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in legal proceedings arising in the normal
course of business. Management believes adequate accruals have been established in these known cases. However, it should be noted that in Mississippi and Alabama, where the Company has substantial business, the likelihood of a judgment in any given
suit, including a large mental anguish and/or punitive damage award by a jury, bearing little or no relation to actual damages, continues to exist, creating the potential for unpredictable material adverse financial results.

Based upon information presently available, management is unaware of any contingent liabilities arising from other threatened litigation that should be reserved or
disclosed.

For a more detailed discussion of legal proceedings of the Company, refer to Note 2Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to
Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There has been no material change in the risk factors previously disclosed under Item 1A.
of the Companys annual report for 2005 on Form 10-K.
