On January 22, 2004, Travelers Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share on class A and
class B common stock, payable on February 27, 2004, to shareholders of record on February 4, 2004. The declaration
and payment of future dividends to holders of Travelers common stock will be at the discretion of Travelers Board of
Directors and will depend upon many factors, including Travelers financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of
TPC’s operating subsidiaries, legal requirements, regulatory constraints and other factors as the Board of Directors
deems relevant. In addition, if the merger with SPC is consummated, dividend decisions will be those of the Board of
Directors of the combined St. Paul Travelers. Dividends would be paid by St. Paul Travelers only if declared by its
Board of Directors out of funds legally available and subject to any other restrictions that may be applicable to St. Paul
Travelers. Subject to the foregoing, it is anticipated that St. Paul Travelers will pay a regular quarterly dividend of
$0.22 per share, after adjustment for the conversion of Travelers shares pursuant to the .4334 exchange ratio.
