______


(1)	Includes an after-tax expense of approximately $2.4 million recorded during the fourth quarter of 2010 related to our estimate of the contingent consideration expected to be paid to the former shareholders of Advocate, MD Financial Group Inc. ("Advocate, MD") under the earnout agreement entered into in connection with the acquisition.

(2)

To supplement the consolidated financial information presented herein in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we report operating earnings and certain other non-GAAP financial measures widely used in the insurance industry to assist in evaluating financial performance over time. For additional information and reconciliation to GAAP results, see the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” found later in this press release.

Certain factors affecting our comparative results for the fourth quarter of 2010 are discussed in the “Unaudited Financial and Operational Highlights” section below.

“Our business continued to perform well in the fourth quarter as the result of our strong market positions and execution of our business strategies,” said John R. Byers, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our acquisition of Advocate, MD in November 2009 has continued to contribute significantly to our results, including written premium and policyholder growth and profitable underwriting results." Mr. Byers added, "We're pleased with what we achieved in 2010 and remain focused on delivering the best possible products and services to our customers and value for our shareholders."

FPIC Press Release: 1

Unaudited Financial and Operational Highlights for Fourth Quarter and Year 2010

(as compared to fourth quarter and year 2009 unless otherwise indicated)


•	Professional liability policyholders, excluding policyholders under alternative risk arrangements, increased 2 percent to 18,374 policyholders as of December 31, 2010, compared to 18,003 policyholders as of December 31, 2009 primarily as the result of an increase in Texas policyholders.


•	Our national policyholder retention rate was 94 percent for the year 2010 compared to 95 percent for 2009. Our Florida policyholder retention rate was 96 percent for the year 2010 compared to 95 percent for 2009.


•	Net premiums written increased 1 percent for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 12 percent for the year 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 primarily due to the acquisition of Advocate, MD.


•	Consolidated revenues increased 1 percent for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 6 percent for the year 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009 primarily as a result of the acquisition of Advocate, MD, offset to some extent by lower net investment income.


•	Net investment income was 12 percent lower for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 10 percent lower for the year 2010 compared to the same periods in 2009, due to lower average invested assets and a decline in yields on fixed income securities and cash and cash equivalents as the result of lower prevailing interest rates.

•

The continuation of favorable overall claims results as compared to previous estimates resulted in the recognition of favorable net loss development related to previously established reserves of $7.0 million and $5.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $23.0 million and $19.0 million for the year 2010 and 2009, respectively. The favorable development recognized in 2010 reflects lower than expected ultimate losses related to the 2005 through 2008 accident years as the result of changes in our previous estimates of incident to claim development, payment frequency and / or payment severity for the respective accident years. Our current accident year loss ratio for the fourth quarter of 2010 was 72.2 percent compared to 70.5 percent for the same period in 2009. For the year 2010, our current accident year loss ratio was 71.6 percent compared to 71.0 percent for 2009.

•

Our expense ratio was 29.6 percent for the fourth quarter of 2010, compared to 29.9 percent for the same period in 2009. The fourth quarter 2009 expense ratio includes a $1.2 million guaranty fund assessment levied in November 2009. Excluding this guaranty fund assessment and recoveries received for prior assessments, our expense ratio for the fourth quarter of 2009 was 27.5 percent. For the year 2010, our expense ratio was 28.9 percent compared to 26.5 percent for 2009. The higher expense ratios in 2010 are primarily the result of a prior rate decrease in our Florida market that was reflected in net premiums earned during 2010, higher commission expenses in relation to net premiums earned as compared to 2009 and the acquisition of Advocate, MD.

•

Other expenses for the fourth quarter of 2010 includes an adjustment of $2.4 million to our estimate of the contingent consideration expected to be paid to the former shareholders of Advocate, MD under the earnout agreement entered into in connection with the acquisition. The adjustment reflects better than expected performance by Advocate, MD in the measures of direct premiums written, combined ratio and underwriting profit. Other expenses for the fourth quarter of 2009 includes transaction costs associated with the acquisition of Advocate, MD of $0.5 million.


•	Book value per common share grew 12 percent to $30.84 as of December 31, 2010 from $27.58 as of December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2010, the statutory surplus of our insurance subsidiaries was $257.8 million and the ratio of net premiums written to surplus was 0.6 to 1.

FPIC Press Release: 2

•

On a trade date basis, we repurchased 342,164 shares of our common stock during the fourth quarter of 2010 at an average price of $37.39 per share and as of December 31, 2010, had remaining authority from our Board of Directors to repurchase 761,270 more shares under our stock repurchase program.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial information presented herein in accordance with GAAP, we report certain non-GAAP financial measures widely used in the insurance industry to evaluate financial performance over time. Operating earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure used by investors and analysts in the insurance industry to facilitate understanding of results by excluding: (i) the net effects of realized investment gains and losses, which are more closely tied to the financial markets; (ii) the cumulative effects of accounting changes and other infrequent or non-recurring items, which can affect comparability across reporting periods; and (iii) discontinued operations. Tangible book value is another non-GAAP financial measure used by investors and analysts to gauge book values excluding goodwill and other intangible assets.

The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables under the caption “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to the Nearest Comparable GAAP Measures” provided later in this release. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding

FPIC Press Release: 4

our performance and allow for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by us in our financial and operational decision-making.
