THIS CAUSE came on for consideration upon the filing of an application with the OFFICE OF INSURANCE REGULATION (hereinafter referred to as the “OFFICE”) for the issuance of a Permit and subsequent Certificate of Authority to HERITAGE PROPERTY & CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANY (hereinafter referred to as “APPLICANT”) to form and operate as an authorized domestic insurer, pursuant to Sections 624.401, 624,404, 624.413, 628.051, 628.061, 628.071, and 628.081, Florida Statutes, to write the following lines of insurance coverage in this state: (0010) Fire, (0020) Allied Lines, (0040) Homeowners Multi Peril and (0170) Other Liability. Following a complete review of the entire record, and upon consideration thereof, and being otherwise fully advised in the premises, the OFFICE hereby finds, as follows:

3. The application represents that prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Authority, APPLICANT will become a newly formed Florida stock corporation. The application further represents that APPLICANT’s issued and outstanding stock will be wholly owned by HERITAGE INSURANCE HOLDINGS, LLC (hereinafter referred to as “HERITAGE HOLDINGS”), a Florida limited liability company. The application represents no individual or entity owns ten percent (10%) or more of the issued and outstanding voting shares of HERITAGE HOLDINGS. Said representations are material to the issuance of this Consent Order.

4. Except as disclosed in the application, APPLICANT and HERITAGE HOLDINGS have made material representations that none of the incorporators, officers, and directors of APPLICANT, and none of the officers and directors of HERITAGE HOLDINGS have been found guilty of, or pleaded guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or a misdemeanor, other than a minor traffic violation, without regard to whether a judgment of conviction was entered by the Court.

5. APPLICANT and/or HERITAGE HOLDINGS shall provide legible and complete fingerprint cards for all individuals as noted in paragraph four (4) above. If the completed fingerprint cards of any said person furnished to the OFFICE or other sources utilized by the OFFICE in its investigation process reveal that the representations made in paragraph four (4) above are inaccurate, any individual involved shall be removed as officer, director and/or shareholder of said company within thirty (30) days after notification by the OFFICE and replaced with a person or persons acceptable to the OFFICE.

		Page 2 of 21

6. APPLICANT and/or HERITAGE HOLDINGS shall, within thirty (30) days of the execution of this Consent Order, submit or cause to be submitted, a background investigative report to the OFFICE that is less than one (1) year old for the Chief Financial Officer and the Executive Vice President of APPLICANT. If the background information on such individuals furnished to the OFFICE or other sources utilized by the OFFICE in its investigation process reveal that the representations made in paragraph four (4) above are inaccurate, the individual involved shall be removed within thirty (30) days after notification by the OFFICE and replaced with a person or persons acceptable to the OFFICE.

7. APPLICANT and HERITAGE HOLDINGS further represent that, except as provided in paragraphs five (5) and six (6) above, they have submitted complete information on each of the above individuals, and that if material information has not been provided to the OFFICE, any such individual(s) shall be removed within thirty (30) days of receipt of notification from the OFFICE.

8. If, upon receipt of notification from the OFFICE, pursuant to paragraphs five (5), six (6) and/or seven (7) above, APPLICANT or HERITAGE HOLDINGS does not timely take the required corrective action, APPLICANT and HERITAGE HOLDINGS agree that such failure to act would constitute an immediate danger to the public, and the OFFICE immediately may suspend, revoke, or take other administrative action as it deems appropriate upon the Permit of APPLICANT without further proceedings, pursuant to Sections 120.569(2)(n) and 120.60(6), Florida Statutes. Such failure by APPLICANT to take corrective action shall further constitute grounds to deny APPLICANT a Certificate of Authority.

9. APPLICANT has filed an application with the OFFICE consisting of a Plan of Operation, biographical information, legal documents, and other supporting documents for the purpose of obtaining a Permit and subsequent Certificate of Authority (hereinafter referred to as “Application”).

Said representations are material to the issuance of this Consent Order.

10. APPLICANT and HERITAGE HOLDINGS affirm that all explanations, representations, and documents provided to the OFFICE in connection with APPLICANT’s Application, including all attachments and supplements thereto, are true, and all representations and requirements set forth herein are material to the issuance of this Consent Order, and fully describe all transactions, agreements, and understandings regarding the formation and operation of APPLICANT.

11. APPLICANT represents that it plans to assume approximately thirty-five thousand (35,000) residential policies from Citizens Property Insurance Corporation (“CITIZENS”) in 2012 under one or more depopulation plans.

APPLICANT shall not require policyholders to make additional payments, nor take any action other than to express the desire to remain with CITIZENS in writing, by electronic mail, or by telephone on or before thirty (30) days following the date of their policy removal; and

		Page 5 of 21

c) All communications with agents and policyholders regarding any policies to be removed from CITIZENS must be done in accordance with instructions by CITIZENS and the OFFICE.

14. APPLICANT acknowledges the separate review of the depopulation plan as referenced in paragraphs eleven (11), twelve (12) and thirteen (13) above may result in the need for additional surplus and/or reinsurance as deemed appropriate by the OFFICE.

15. APPLICANT shall comply with its Plan of Operation and supporting documents as submitted with the Application. Written approval must be secured from the OFFICE prior to any material deviation from said Plan of Operation. APPLICANT shall not exceed the direct, assumed, and/or net premiums written as projected in the Pro Forma Statement for years 2012, 2013, and 2014 submitted by APPLICANT with the Application, without the prior written approval of the OFFICE,
