3 Reagan s Private Ownership Study Study Sponsors: 3
4 The Private Ownership Study Remaining privately-held is an important goal for many agents and brokers Today s environment is making internal perpetuation harder than ever Weak economy / soft P&C pricing High third party valuations Healthcare uncertainty How do agents and brokers successfully plan for internal perpetuation? 4
5 Effective Perpetuation Planning Preparing to Perpetuate Indefinitely Maintaining Perpetuation Options for Your Firm Increasing the Value of Your Agency To All Buyers 5
6 6 The Four Pillars of Perpetuation Healthy Operation Reasonable Sellers Able Buyers Effective Transfer Mechanism 37.7% 31.7% 45.7% 36.8% % of Firms Challenged by Each Pillar 6
7 Healthy Operation: Profit EBITDA Margin (% of Revenue) <10% % of Respondents 21% Value at 6.0x EBITDA (as a multiple of revenue) <0.6x 10% to 20% 35% 0.6x 1.2x 20% to 30% 26% 1.2x 1.8x > 30% 18% >1.8x 7
8 Healthy Operation: Growth Growth provides buyer purchasing power Growth influences the EBITDA multiple, which impacts value Growth means viability 8
9 Healthy Operation: Risk & B/S Enforceable contracts, good morale, employee success Diversification among clients, industries, producers and carriers Balance sheet health Working Capital (30 days) Good collections and Trust Ratio of 1:1 Tangible Net Worth to support impending redemptions 9
10 Reasonable Sellers: Main Issues Willing to sell at internal values Willing to sell when buyers are ready Willing to finance the purchase Valuation must be a multiple of actual, going-concern EBITDA Carefully manage ownership concentration Length of financing should help buyers fund purchase 10
11 Able Buyers: Houston, we have a problem. 55% - 60% of agencies not hiring enough producers to grow and perpetuate 11
12 Generational Capacity Age Distribution of Production Force (Based on RVI Data) 28% 12% Up to Age 35 22% 18% Age % 22% Age % 28% Over Age 55 The Effects of Producer Age Distribution (Based on RVI Data) Metric Bottom 25% Top 25% WAPA WASA Organic Growth 1% - 2% 8% - 9% Sales Velocity 7% 15% Bottom 25% Top 25% Leaders under Age

Total New Producer Hiring per Year As a Percentage of Your Current Producers % 14
15 Able Buyers: Financial Ability BUYER COVERAGE RATIO Buyer Ownership Distributions or Bonuses Buyer Principal & Interest Payments Is Your Firm s Buyer Coverage Ratio 100% or Higher? First-year metric: Does not contemplate growth in the business Pre-tax metric: Taxes on ownership bonuses or distributions not included Down payment not factored into the calculation No 45.0% Yes 55.0% 15
16 Able Buyers: Financial Ability The Typical Buyer Transaction in the Industry Today 10% MEDIAN DOWN PAYMENT 8 years MEDIAN FINANCING PERIOD 100% MEDIAN BUYER COVERAGE RATIO 16

19 19 Transfer Mechanism: Selection Profitability and Distributions Revenue Growth Readiness of Buying Group Age and Timing of Sellers Family Ownership Profitable and Distribute a High % of Profits Above Average Organic Growth Potential Buyers Identified and Prepared to Purchase Shares Many Sellers with a Wide Dispersion of Ages Desire to Maintain Family Ownership of the Firm Rolling / Single Ownership Purchase Ownership Purchase and Stock Grants Rolling / Single Ownership Purchase Rolling Ownership Purchase Gifting Single Event Ownership Purchase ESOP ESOP Stock Grants ESOP ESOP Stock Grants ESOP Single Event Ownership Purchase Rolling Ownership Purchase Low Profitability or Low Distribution Yield Challenging Organic Growth Forecast The Buying Group is Currently Unidentified Few Sellers Concentrated in Older Age Groups The Firm is not Family Held
20 What Does This Say About the Industry? Desire for private ownership is strong and widespread Confidence level exceeds ability to accomplish However, best practices leading to success with many agents Biggest and most serious challenges are: Lack of able buyers Lack of operational health Firms that are able to perpetuate are also well-positioned for a third-party sale A successful perpetuation plans enables the continued strong return for investments in agents and brokers 20
21 What Should Agents & Brokers Do? Determine what your objectives are Examine each of the Four Pillars of Perpetuation within your firm Which are strongest? Where is improvement needed? Put together a plan to address each area of need Articulate your plan clearly And finally... 21
22 22 Use Your Perpetuation Plan! A well thought-out and clearly articulated perpetuation plan can be a key differentiator in the marketplace Battle for talent Carriers Clients Culture 22
