Stephen L. Way, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of HCC Insurance Holdings Inc., announced that the Company had closed its
acquisition of American Contractors Indemnity Company (ACIC), headquartered in Los Angeles, California.

HCC will immediately contribute additional funds to increase the statutory capital of ACIC to $30 million. ACIC is expected to receive the HCC Group rating of AA (Very Strong) from Standard & Poor’s and A+ (Superior) by A.M. Best Company.
