RE: The Doctors Company Acquisition of FPIC

Dear Agent;

Below you will find a link to a letter going to all IL FPIC policyholders regarding the TDC acquisition of FPIC, which is expected to close fourth quarter 2011.

We are very pleased with this new partnership. The combined company will make the TDC companies the largest physician insurer in the US with over 70,000 combined policyholders. We are equally pleased to share that FPIC policyholders will remain FPIC policyholders, receiving the same commitment to outstanding customer and claim service from FPIC that your clients have come to expect.

As the old saying goes, this is a “win-win” for everybody. Both companies share a common philosophy as aggressive advocates for their physician policyholders. Both have been and continue to be aggressive supporters of strong and meaningful tort reform. Both companies have deep commitments to risk management as a way to promote patient safety, improve quality of care and mitigate losses.

You can be confident that FPIC is here for the long haul and now more than ever you are representing the premier physician’s insurance program available in Illinois. Our track record of continued growth shows that your clients realize the superior value of the FPIC product. FPIC will continue to deliver on its promise of the superior product and service at competitive prices.

We look forward to our continued partnership with you, FPIC, and now, TDC.

Regards,
