REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ADMINISTRATION TO BE PRESENTED AT THE ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF MEMBERS TO BE HELD ON FRIDAY THE 6TH DAY OF DECEMBER 2013 at 3.15 p.m. The Board of Administration, in accordance with Article 22 of the Fundamental Rules, has pleasure in presenting their one hundred and forty fourth annual report, and the audited financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2013. BOARD OF ADMINISTRATION'S RESPONSIBILITIES IN RESPECT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Board of Administration (the Board) are responsible for preparing the Board's report and the financial statements in accordance with the Fundamental Rules of the Society and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). The financial statements are required to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Society and the surplus or deficit of the Society for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Board are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and

prepare financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Society will continue in business.

The Board are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Society's transactions which disclose with reasonable accuracy, at any time, the financial position of the Society. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Society and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The Society is licensed to operate as an insurance society by the Jersey Financial Services Commission. As such the Board are required to comply with the requirements of the Insurance Business (Jersey) Law 1996. THE INSURANCE BUSINESS (JERSEY) LAW 1996 On 25 February 2013 the Society became a regulated insurance society in accordance with the Insurance Business (Jersey) Law 1996. The Society is now regulated by the Jersey Financial Services Commission. RESULTS The financial statements show a net surplus after tax of £235,289 (2012: £1,608,040). The total members funds have showed an increase of £235,289 to £26,466,840 (2012: £26,231,551). The value of the real and personal property insured during the year has increased by 2.3% (£101,881,392) to £4,507,475,516 as at 30 September 2013 as shown on page 7. A list of claims is available for inspection at the Society's offices.

3


RESULTS (continued) Gross premium income has increased in the year by 1.3% (£74,755) to £5,931,111. Discounts granted to members during the year amounted to £1,782,314 (2012: £1,682,438). An analysis of claims paid is shown on page 6. There was a reduction in the unrealised gain on financial investments held at the year end of £96,542. Nevertheless the value of the investment portfolio still exceeded cost by £459,111 at 30 September 2013. Realised gains on the disposal of certain investments during the year, amounted to £62,115 (2012: £1,966,598). The Society is restricted in its investment strategy since it must maintain 75% of assets as approved assets. Our investment brokers, with our approval, have therefore continued with a cautious approach, maintaining a high level of investments in low risk bonds. For the coming year we intend to maintain the current conservative investment policy in order to preserve and grow the value of the investment portfolio. REINSURANCE AGREEMENTS Your directors have pleasure in reporting that under the agreements entered into by the Society with Lloyd's Underwriters and Reinsurers, the latter, during the past year, accepted all individual risks above £17,500 in Class 1, subject to an event limit of £20 million. In addition to the foregoing, Lloyd's Underwriters and Reinsurers indemnified the Society for each and every ultimate net loss occurring under all policies covering Fire, Lightning, Explosion and Comprehensive Risks (including All Risks) which exceeded £225,000, and in respect of Public Liability and Employer's Liability which exceeded £200,000. DIRECTORS In accordance with Article 22 of the Fundamental Rules, you are called upon to elect nine directors to replace the following members for a term of three years to commence from 25 December 2013: M BIRCH N LE COCQ J WILDING R LE CORNU K FAUDEMER D LE QUESNE S HEWLETT A HARVEY K PALLOT

RULES OF THE SOCIETY The contingent liability of policy holders is set out in rules 10, 16 and 26 of the Fundamental Rules of the Society, copies of which are available on request from the General Manager. The Board wishes to state that in their opinion calling upon members to contribute in accordance with these Rules is a remote possibility, particularly in view of the Society's reinsurance arrangements.

WEBSITE As part of a 'green' policy our financial statements are published on our website. A limited number of printed copies will be available on request (see Notice of Meeting).

ACCOUNTANTS AND AUDITORS Rosscot Limited assist the Society as accountants, and Rosscot Assurance Limited act as the Society's auditors. In accordance with Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales' best practice, Rosscot have segregated their engagements with the Society, incorporating separate reporting Principals and members of staff. Rosscot Limited are willing to continue to act as accountants for the forthcoming year and Rosscot Assurance Limited are willing to continue in office as auditors for the forthcoming year.

VOTE OF THANKS The advent of Regulation has not only brought increased costs but also an increased workload. The Board wish to record a vote of thanks to all members of staff for all the hard work that they have carried out during a busy but successful year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the members of Jersey Mutual Insurance Society, Incorporated We have audited the financial statements of Jersey Mutual Insurance Society, Incorporated for the year ended 30 September 2013 on pages 10 to 22. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). This report is made solely to the Society's members, as a body, in accordance with the Fundamental Rules of the Society and article 18(1) of the Insurance Business (Jersey) Law 1996. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Society's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Society and the Society's members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. Respective responsibilities of the Board of Administration and Auditors As explained more fully in the Statement of The Board of Administration's Responsibilities, set out on page 3, the Board are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and regulatory requirements and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board's Ethical Standards for Auditors. Scope of the audit of the financial statements An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Society’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the Board; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Board of Administration's report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report. Opinion on financial statements In our opinion the financial statements:  give a true and fair view of the state of the Society's affairs as at 30 September 2013 and of its results for the year then ended;  have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and  have been properly prepared in accordance with the Fundamental Rules of the Society and the Insurance Business (Jersey) Law 1996.

8


Opinion on other matters In our opinion the information given in the Board of Administration's report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. Matters on which we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Insurance Business (Jersey) Law 1996 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:  proper accounting records have not been kept; or  the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or  we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

RECOGNISED GAINS AND LOSSES All results are derived from continuing operations. There are no recognised gains and losses other than the surplus attributable to the members of the Society of £235,289 in the year ended 30 September 2013 and a surplus of £1,608,040 in the year ended 30 September 2012. The inclusion of unrealised gains and losses in the profit and loss account to reflect the marking to market value of investments and the revaluation of freehold and investment property is deemed not to be a departure from the unmodified historical cost basis of accounting. Accordingly a separate note of historical cost results is not given.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 30 September 2013 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of preparation The financial statements are prepared on the basis of historical cost, adjusted by the revaluation of freehold property and quoted investments, and in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The recommendations of the Statement of Recommended Practice of Accounting for Insurance Business issued by the Association of British Insurers in December 2005 (as amended in December 2006) (the "SORP") have been adopted. Premiums and unearned premium provisions General business premiums written reflect business incepted during the year. General business unearned premiums are those proportions of the premiums written in a year that relate to the periods of risk after the balance sheet date. Unearned premiums are calculated on a monthly pro rata basis. Outward reinsurance premiums are accounted for in the same accounting period as the premiums for the related direct business being reinsured. Claims General business claims incurred include all losses occurring during the year, related handling costs, a reduction for the value of salvage and other recoveries, and any adjustments to claims outstanding from previous years. The provision for claims outstanding is based on information available at the balance sheet date. Significant delays are sometimes experienced in the quantification of certain claims, and accordingly the ultimate cost of such claims cannot be known with certainty at the balance sheet date. Subsequent information and events may result in the ultimate liability being less than, or greater than, the amount provided. Any differences between provisions and subsequent settlements are dealt with in the technical account - general business of later years. General business outstanding claims provisions are based on the estimated ultimate cost of all claims incurred but not settled at the balance sheet date, together with related handling costs and a reduction for the value of salvage and other recoveries. No provision is necessary for claims incurred but not reported, as all claims must be reported within 3 days of the incident from which the claim arises. Thus, at the date the financial statements were approved, all valid claims incurred during the financial year would have been reported.

15


NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued 30 September 2013 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Investment income and unrealised investment gains or losses Investment income consists of interest, dividends and rents receivable for the year, together with realised and unrealised investment gains and losses. Dividends are included as investment income when the investments to which they relate are declared ex-dividend. Rent (net of expenses) and interest income are recognised on an accruals basis. Realised investment gains and losses represent the difference between the net sale proceeds and the cost of acquisition. Unrealised investment gains and losses represent the difference between the carrying value at the year end and the carrying value at the previous year end or purchase value during the year. Taxation Technical income is not taxed. Jersey income tax of 20% is payable on rental income net of attributable expenses. Under the 0/10 regime introduced in Jersey with effect from the 2009 year of assessment the Society, being a mutual trading organisation, is taxed at 0% on investment income. Investments Investments, consisting of land and buildings, listed equities and fixed interest securities, are stated at their current values at the end of the year. The market values of quoted investments are calculated using the closing prices on the last business day in the financial year. Unlisted financial investments are included at the last available valuation. Land and buildings are revalued periodically at open market value, by qualified external valuers and reassessed annually by the directors. No depreciation is provided on properties held for investment purposes, as recommended in Statement of Standard Accounting Practice 19. Tangible assets Items purchased for less than £1,000 are written off to revenue in the year of purchase. Items of between £1,000 and £5,000 are capitalised and fully depreciated in the year of purchase. Items exceeding £5,000 are capitalised and depreciated on a straight line basis as follows: Computer equipment Office furniture and equipment

20% per annum 10% per annum

Depreciation is charged to the technical account - general business and is included in administrative expenses. Land and buildings are stated at valuation. Pension costs The Society operates three defined contribution pension schemes. Contributions are charged to the revenue account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the schemes.
