This Item 8.01 may contain forward-looking statements about our reinsurance
program and related attachment point, total coverage and costs. These statements
are subject to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are
based on management's estimates, assumptions and projections. These
forward-looking statements can generally be identified as such because the
context of the statement includes words such as estimate, expect or words of
similar nature. The actual changes to our reinsurance program and related
attachment point, total coverage and costs may differ materially from those
discussed in this report, depending on our reinsurers' capacity to pay claims
and related adjustment provisions in our agreements with the private reinsurers.
