We make explicit risk decisions, we are in the business of risk We aspire to be the #1 insurer in AAA member households across the markets we serve. As an insurer, our job is to assume and manage our member policyholders' personal lines insurance risk. We need to make risk choices and take risk in order to achieve this vision. In order to be the #1 insurer across the markets we serve, we need to take an appropriate level of risk for the financial, catastrophic, operational, and execution risk associated with growing books of personal lines business. We need to have a willingness to accept the higher level risk that is associated with growing our business. We believe that our strategy needs to be a consistent, aligning, guiding, and a driving force for the enterprise. We believe that frequently changing our strategy represents a very large risk. When it comes to enterprise strategy, we have a moderate appetite for the risk that we don't have the perfect strategy as the greater risk comes with too frequent changing of strategy. To support this, we need consistent communication to all employees to ensure alignment on the strategy.

History of our Enterprise Risk Management program 2014 Pre-separation, we used a high level ERM structure to identify, assess, prioritize, manage, monitor, and report risk. Included ERM into Audit Committee Charter Developed ERM guiding principles, risk management framework and ERM governance roles and responsibilities Identified top enterprise risks through interviews with management and ELT Identified risk owners for top enterprise risks and created ERM frameworks for each risk Conducted first ERM Leadership Team meetings A.M. Best identified our ERM capabilities as strong to superior Completed draft ORSA* report and participated in ORSA pilot program with CA DOI Created first Risk Appetite Statement Internal Audit provided independent assurance of our Business Continuity Planning and IT Disaster Recovery risks 201320122011 2005 - 2010 *Own Risk and Solvency Assessment (ORSA) – component of an insurer’s enterprise risk management framework, is a confidential internal assessment appropriate to the nature, scale and complexity of an insurer conducted by the insurer of the material and relevant risks identified by the insurer associated with an insurer’s current business plan and the sufficiency of capital resources to support those risks.

The ERM team does not provide assurance Strong and visible commitment from all members of the ERM leadership team, C-suite executives and Board of Directors Clearly defined ownership for all key risks Leverage ERM to ensure explicit risk choices rather than implicit or default decisions Employ a single, consistent framework to achieve clarity and common understanding on disparate risks Enterprise Risk Management Guiding Principles

Enterprise Risk Management Five Lines of Defense Each enterprise risk is reviewed by five lines of defense, which is a four step process at each line of defense:  Identify and preliminary asses  Assess and prioritize likelihood and severity  Assign accountability and risk response  Monitor and reporting Risk Owner ERM Core Team ERM Leadership Team Executive Leadership Team Board or Committee

6 6 © 2014 CSAA Insurance Group. Confidential and proprietary. Each top enterprise risk is evaluated through a consistent and extensive risk review process  Our risk identification process includes emerging risk discussions with the ERM Leadership Team and Executive Leadership Team, annual Board survey and review of risks within the industry and our peers  Once a risk is identified as a top enterprise risk, we use the following ERM process for each risk: Identify a risk owner Identify C-suite owner Identify Board or Committee ownership Define the risk Set risk tolerance Identify risk drivers and action items Identify and publish key risk and performance indicators Evaluate risk’s potential impact on strategic initiatives and key company goals Quantify gross risk score Identify mitigating controls Evaluate mitigating control status Quantify residual risk score Determine current risk status Identify target risk status Determine current status of mitigation efforts Identify target status of mitigation efforts Speed of onset spectrum Top risks correlations mapped  The risk owner then presents the completed ERM framework to the following groups: ERM Leadership Team – a body of 7 cross functional executives Executive Leadership Team (C suite) The Board or Board Committee that oversees the risk

For each top enterprise risk, we have articulated risk tolerances, with the following as representative examples Overall risk tolerance  We want to manage risk to ensure we can do all of the following: Pay 100% of all claims to support our policyholders’ needs (including major catastrophe) Have the financial position to be able, if we choose, to renew all of our existing policies and continue to support AAA members with their existing insurance needs Have the additional capital to support growth, both in support of the strategy we have outlined, and in a post-catastrophe, dislocated market where AAA members reach to us to support them Maintain a minimum BCAR score of 250 and a capital position above required economic capital Catastrophe and Reinsurer credit risk  We have a risk tolerance of up to 15% of surplus lost in a 1-in-250 year event  We will not tolerate excessive exposure to individual reinsurer credit risk and use allocation caps based on AM Best ratings as follows: $55 million cap for A++, $50 million cap for A+, $30 million cap for A, and $10 million cap for A- Loss Reserves  We have little tolerance for the risk of adverse loss development and we set the loss reserve margin at a 95% confidence level that carried personal lines reserves will not be exceeded, given anticipated inflation
