City Attorney Approved Version 6/12/18 13 Name of shoot Name of the project: Crosswalk Safetv Event Subiect of the shoot: School crossina auard interview and b-roll Location Calavera Elementarv School Date Date/dates of shoots in notes Description of video Examples: In time code order 01:01:15-Kids cross street, car speeds through light 01 :01 :30 -Crossing Guard interview -describe question (i.e. John Smith -crossina auard resoonsibilities) Vldeographer Who shot the footage -last name and first initial please (in notes) and if possible in the camera metadata i.e. SmithW 09 03 14 Additional Notes: Please note any additional shots that do not pertain to the project, but were acquired while on the shoot. For example, trail with flowers in bloom Please keep the names of clips as short and detailed as possible in this order. Naming Order: Project Prefix -Description of Action, ANGLE Example: Crosswalk Safety -guard.crosses with kids MS The project prefix can also be the location of the shoot. For example, if you're recording b-roll of airplanes at the airport, Airport -jet takes off MS would be the file name. Example: If the project name is "Crosswalk Safety" there is no need to include crosswalks in the clip description since it is already listed. Crossing guard would be "guardD because it's included in the project prefix. This will help to keep clip names shorter. When there are multiple takes of the same action, add a number to differentiate. Only clip out the best useable footage for delivery and provide the best two takes of the action. When naming clips use WS = wide shot, MS = medium shot and CU = close up. Please use the descriptors below -do not use symbols i.e. (/<>\) as they do not read in searches and can result in corrupt clips.

Action Affirmed Affirmed Affirmed Afflfll18d Afflfll18d • • Surplus is compounding at high rates, with the help of unrealized capital gains and net underwriting income . Investment portfolio is managed by the ultimate parent, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., in Omaha, NE. • National Indemnity Company is United States Liability Insurance Company's (USU) main reinsurer . Operating Performance : Very Strong • • • • • Favorable underwriting results led by loss ratios that are significantly lower than its industry over a 10-year period . Underwriting expenses trending higher as the company maintains its competitive advantage with service, supporting gross premiums growth; however, the expense ratio is stable over a 10-year period as the expenses have grown in line with premiums. Most of investment performance results from unrealized capital gains, which are the main reason for the surplus growth and outperforms industry total returns on a consistent basis. Gross and net premiums growth is still very strong, although it has moderated in recent years . Surplus CAGR above 10% in the past 10 years, despite dividend payments . Business Profile: Neutral • Diversified geographically in the U.S. by product line, sales channel, and customer base . Page2ol5 Pmted September 12, 2018 • • • BEST'S RA TING REPORT United States Liability Insurance Group United States Liability Insurance Group (USU) is a leading commercial and specialty lines insurance group in the U.S., offering a broad range of products. USU's competitive advantage resides in value-added services to its policyholders and producers beyond the coverage itself . Investments in technology have helped increase policyholder retention . Enterprise Risk Management: Appropriate • • • • USU benefits from implicit support from the ultimate parent company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc . Reinsurance program is essentially with National Indemnity Company . Conservative reserving, risk and governance translate into a culture with a margin of safety disseminated by Berkshire Hathaway Inc. High level of risk-adjusted capitalization at the tail (i.e., at the 1-in-500-year return period or 99.8% VaR) . Rating Lift/Drag • USU receives financial and operational support from Berkshire Hathaway and its sister company, National Indemnity Company . Outlook The stable outlooks reflect A.M. Best's view that USU will continue to maintain its current rating fundamentals in the short to medium term. Rating Drivers The ratings could be negatively impacted in the long term if operating performance falls markedly short of AM. Best's expectations, induding a significant deterioration in loss trends, material disruptions of its business strategy, sudden dedines in policyholders' surplus, or assets or liquidity losses related to investment activity. The ratings could also be dawngraded as a result of sudden adverse changes in market conditions across a large portion of the book of business or extreme shifts in claims severity and frequency trends. Because of the rating lift received from the parent, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., and reinsurance provided by the sister company, National Indemnity Company, changes in the ratings or outlooks of the associated companies may impact the ratings of USU.
