4 One Team, One Vision While we knew a partnership with HUB International was in the best interests of our clients, our employees and our business relationships, we still had anxiety about moving forward. This concern was not only felt by me, but also voiced by key employees. Now fully integrated with HUB, we all share the excitement in the new resources available and the great people with whom we are now affi liated. Most satisfying is the confi dence our people now have in the decision we made. Our employees can see how their ability to grow professionally and serve our clients has improved while the things that made them enjoy working for our fi rm have not changed. Change is never easy, but when the end result is positive for all stakeholders, it is worth undertaking. Our objective is to build the best sales organization in the insurance industry. To deliver on this objective, HUB has made signifi cant investments in building systems and developing a culture that places sales and service at the center of our business model.

5 Track record of success in mergers and acquisitions Since the formation of HUB International Limited in 1998, we have successfully completed over 250 mergers and acquisitions. Why do so many business owners choose HUB? First, we offer the opportunity to grow and expand your business. When you join HUB, you have access to resources for sales development and support, (including sales producer recruiting and training), as well as technology and fi nancial support so you can quickly begin to build upon your success. Second, we think like you do. Despite our size, we believe it s important to remain nimble, understand local needs, and respond quickly to business opportunities. Finally, we understand that acquisitions are combinations of people, so we pay close attention to make sure the culture fi ts. We feel that culture is just as important as the fi nancial results. Our agency was previously bankowned, which presents a different set of challenges than buying a family or individually owned agency. Due to their previous experience in working with fi nancial institutions, HUB International was able to address the needs and concerns of the bank while providing an excellent solution for the producers and staff of the agency. HUB s fl exibility and speed of response during the process were instrumental in bringing the transaction to a successful conclusion. - Allison Rhyne, President HUB International Southeast, formerly First Southeast Insurance Services Whether you have a single producer book or multi-million dollar agency, we have experience in assimilating operations of all sizes, so you become an integral part of the HUB team as quickly as possible.
