ATLANTIC MUTUAL INTRODUCES PERSONAL INSURANCE PROGRAM FOR PENNSYLVANIA

PHILADELPHIA, PA -- Atlantic Mutual Companies, a leading provider of personal insurance products and services for affluent individuals, today announced the availability of a comprehensive personal lines coverage for fine homes, automobiles, boats, valuable possessions and personal liability.

"It's a perfect time for Atlantic Mutual to be offering this coverage in Pennsylvania," said Lori Damiani, territorial manager for Atlantic Mutual in Pennsylvania. "While some owners of high value homes and possessions are being hit with substantial premium increases by their insurance companies, Atlantic Mutual's Master Plan® coverage is remaining the same," notes Ms. Damiani. "Owners of fine homes in Pennsylvania are going to be pleased with the level and flexibility of the high value coverage available to them."

To meet the personal insurance needs of these individuals, the insurance company has announced that eight of Pennsylvania's premier insurance agents are now representing Atlantic Mutual to provide personal lines coverage for high value homes and their contents. They include the Addis Group in King of Prussia, BAAB, Inc. in Wayne, Century Business Services in Plymouth Meeting, Johnson, Kendal, Johnson in Langhorne, Paul Hertel & Co., Inc. in Philadelphia, Powers Craft Parket & Beard in Rosemont, Siegel Insurance Group in Schwenksville and Tyrol Insurance in Newtown.

"Each of these agents provides our unique Atlantic Master Plan coverage which can provide very sophisticated programs for high value primary and vacation homes, personal valuables and collectibles, automobiles and liability all in a single policy," notes Ms. Damiani.

The agents are supported by Atlantic Mutual's network of claims and appraisal experts who specialize in homes valued at $500,000 or more and personal property commonly in the millions of dollars. She notes that a national survey of independent insurance agents ranked Atlantic's claim service number one in several key areas including ease of doing business, ease of reporting claims and prompt return of phone calls.

"Our years of experience in this market ensure the policy limit is a true reflection of the homes' replacement values," Ms. Damiani emphasizes. "We work directly with our clients to determine the appropriate insurance limits for their homes and their valuables, and we provide a network of restoration professionals who can help repair damaged property and valuables to their original specifications."

In addition, agents and Atlantic Mutual appraisers provide a custom appraisal report that analyzes the content of the home in detail and provides information to help make homes safer.

For policyholders who have made technology an integral part of their lifestyle, Atlantic Mutual personal lines policy also provides coverage for identity fraud, theft of credit card numbers over the Internet, losses due to computer viruses, and losses to business property in the home. In addition, the policy now provides up to $25,000 of coverage for the loss of earnings, loan application fees for rejected loans, attorney's fees, and the cost of notarizing affidavits for law enforcement agencies.
