Footnotes

F1: Transactions as a result of the vesting of Restricted Share Units (RSUs) issued to the reporting person on October 5, 2012 under the 2008 Equity Plan and acquired under terms of the ProAssurance Corporation 2011 Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Each RSU is equal to one share of Common Stock and vested upon the completion of three years of continuous employment. Vesting of 116 shares reduced by withholding of 27 shares to cover tax liability resulting from the maturation of this award.

F2: Shares acquired under terms of the ProAssurance Corporation 2011 Employee Stock Ownership Plan

F3: RSU's are equal in value to one share of Common Stock, issued on 10/5/15 under the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and acquired under terms of the ProAssurance Corporation 2011 Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The RSUs will vest upon the sooner of three years of continuous employment, termination of employment by reason of death or disability, for "good reason," or a change of control of the Company. If a participant terminates employment more than twelve months but less than three years from the date of grant, the RSUs will partially vest based on the number of days that the participant was employed in the vesting period. Any RSUs that are unvested on termination of employment will be forfeited. In addition, if a participant withdraws shares purchased for his or her account, matching unvested RSUs will be forfeited. Upon vesting, we will pay the RSUs in shares of our Common Stock from those shares reserved for issuance under the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan with the value established vesting.
