In this regard, I relied on Mark 5. <br />Allaben, Vice President 13 Chief Actuary, Frontier Insurance Group, as to the accuracy <br />and completeness of the data. I evaluated the data used directly in my analysis for <br />reasonableness and consistency, My evaluation did not reveal any data points <br />materially affecting my analysis that fell outside of the range of reasonable <br />possibilities. In performing this evaluation, I have assumed that FIC (aj used its hest <br />efforts to supply accurate and complete data and (b) did not knowingly provide any <br />inaccurate data. I also reconciled the paid loss and loss adjustment expense <br />amounts and case reserve amounts as of December 31, 2000 used in my analysis <br />against Schedule P -Part 1 of the current Annual Statement. In other respects, my <br />examination included the use of such actuarial assumptions and methods and such <br />tests of calculations as I considered necessary. <br />My review was limited to items A, B, C, D, and E above, and did not include an <br />analysis of any income statement items or other balance sheet items. My opinion on <br />the reserves is based upon the assumption that all reserves are backed by valid <br />assets, which have suitably scheduled maturities and/or adequate liquidity to meet <br />cash flow requirements. <br />Trllinyhast- <br />2'owcrsT'tn-r'n <br />
