      of
      our treaties have a term of approximately one year. Two of the treaties have
      a
      term of three years. All of these are excess of loss type treaties and, except
      for an event greater than approximately $233 million, have provisions for
      prepaid automatic reinstatement protection. Additionally, Federated National
      has
      purchased three separate industry loss warrants which may benefit Federated
      National based solely on industry losses irrespective of losses incurred by
      Federated National. </font></div>

Century
      Holding Company's (the "Company", "we" or "us"), wholly owned subsidiary,
      Federated National Insurance Company ("Federated National"), has agreed upon the
      terms of its catastrophe reinsurance treaties for the 2006 - 2007 hurricane
      season. These treaties are designed to reimburse Federated National for property
      losses under its homeowners' insurance policies resulting from covered events in
      the State of
Florida,
      the only state where Federated National is currently writing property insurance
      at this time, for terms with varying dates beginning in July 2006. We utilize
      reinsurance to reduce exposure to catastrophic risk and to help manage capital,
      while lessening earnings volatility and improving shareholder return, and to
      support the required statutory surplus requirements. Our catastrophe reinsurance
      program has been designed to coordinate coverage provided under various treaties
      with various retentions and limits.
Most
      of
      our treaties have a term of approximately one year. Two of the treaties have
      a
      term of three years. All of these are excess of loss type treaties and, except
      for an event greater than approximately $233 million, have provisions for
      prepaid automatic reinstatement protection. Additionally, Federated National
      has
      purchased three separate industry loss warrants which may benefit Federated
      National based solely on industry losses irrespective of losses incurred by
      Federated National.
Our
      treaties are predominately with reinsurers that currently have an AM Best rating
      of A or better, with the exception of two minor reinsurers whose ratings are
      currently B+ and NR5.
The
      cost
      to the Company for these reinsurance products for the 2006 - 2007 hurricane
      season, including approximately $15 million payable to the Florida Hurricane
      Catastrophe Fund ("FHCF") and the prepaid automatic premium reinstatement
      protection will be approximately $65 million This cost was contemplated as
      part
      of our recent 49% average rate increase for homeowners policies with an
      effective date after July 1, 2006.. These reinsurance treaties will afford
      approximately $442 million of aggregate coverage with maximum single event
      coverage totaling approximately $300 million.
All
      amounts of reinsurance are based on management's current analysis of Federated
      National's exposure levels to catastrophic risk. Our data will be subjected to
      exposure level data analysis at various dates through December 31, 2006. This
      analysis of our exposure level in relation to the total exposures to the FHCF
      may produce changes in retentions, limits and reinsurance premiums as a result
      of increases or decreases in our exposure level.
