SCPIE’s Proposed Transaction
with The Doctors Company:
Maximizing Shareholder Value
December 2007


2
Safe Harbor Statement
In addition to historical information, this presentation contains forward-looking
statements that are based upon SCPIE’s estimates and expectations concerning
future
events
and
are
subject
to
certain
risks
and
uncertainties
that
could
cause
actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking
statements.  Expectations concerning SCPIE’s future performance and
profitability
are
dependent
upon
a
variety
of
factors,
including
future
economic,
competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which
are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond  
the control of the company. Risks and uncertainties regarding the pending
transaction with The Doctors Company include the possibility that the closing
does not occur, or is delayed, due to the failure of closing conditions (including
approval
by
SCPIE's
stockholders
and
regulatory
authorities)
and
risks
that
the
pending transaction could disrupt current plans and opportunities of SCPIE.
Other factors that may cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking
statements contained herein and that may affect SCPIEs prospects are included
in SCPIEs other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In light   
of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information herein,
the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as representation by
SCPIE or any other person that SCPIE’s objectives or plans will be realized.

To improve ratings (and allow for more growth) SCPIE is accumulating capital (equity/ surplus)

SCPIE book value multiple is unlikely
to improve
Achieving higher return on equity (ROAE) is typically rewarded with higher price/book trading multiples
SCPIE pre announcement was trading relatively in line with the broader market; without improvement in its
ROAE, it seems unlikely that its book value multiple would achieve any substantial increase
$28.00 purchase price is 1.28x 6/30/07 book value, which would typically imply an ROAE of 13.0%

SCPIE Holdings Inc. to be acquired by
The Doctors Company
On October 16, 2007, SCPIE Holdings Inc. (NYSE:
SKP) announced that it had entered into a definitive
agreement to be acquired by The Doctors Company,
a leading physician-owned medical malpractice
carrier, for $28.00 per share in cash, or an aggregate
purchase price of approximately $281 million
The $28.00 per share in cash purchase price
represents a premium of approximately 31%
over 
SCPIE’s one week prior trading price
Following the merger, The Doctors Company will
expand its market leadership in California to nearly
19,000 physicians and become the largest insurer   
of physician and surgeon professional liability
insurance in the U.S.
The Transactions Committee and the Board of
Directors of SCPIE have approved of the proposed
transaction and the Board recommends that its
stockholders approve the transaction. The
transaction is subject to customary closing
conditions, including the receipt of insurance
regulatory approvals, and approval by holders         
of a majority of SCPIE’s stock

November

The Doctors Company bid is the most direct
path to shareholder value maximization
Form of Consideration
The Doctors Company (TDC) offer
Illustrative offer from peer stock company
Consideration
Fixed cash amount paid at time of closing
Dependable value
(a)
Highest form of liquidity 
Declining acquiror share price can negatively impact the
value of the consideration payable, e.g., due to
Market volatility
Potential merger arbitrage trading activity
Potential/actual year-end business loss at SCPIE   
prior to close would negatively impact acquiror pro
forma financial results
Post transaction
risk/opportunity
SCPIE shareholders avoid any risks the combined
entity might face
SCPIE shareholders are subject to post transaction risk
Certainty of Close
Counterparties subject to
fiduciary requirements
TDC has no potential fiduciary requirement
If transaction is a “merger of equals,” the counterparty
may be forced, for fiduciary reasons, to accept a
compelling competing third party bid instead of
completing the transaction
Requirement for
shareholder vote by
acquiror
No TDC shareholder vote required
Shareholder vote required if transaction is larger than
20% of acquiror
If acquiror shareholders view transaction as
uneconomic, approval would be in jeopardy
Cancellation of
transaction due to
Material Adverse Effect
(MAE)
SCPIE has negotiated the MAE with TDC to
exclude a loss of less than 15% of premiums to
competitors
Loss of business to TDC does not count towards
the 15%
If SCPIE announces transaction with similarly sized, out-
of-state medical provider with unappealing ratings, in-
state competitors will use this as a marketing tool to
take existing customers and premiums  from SCPIE
Acquiror can use material business decline (including
loss of premiums of less than 15%) to the detriment of
SCPIE shareholders by either terminating the
transaction or demanding a renegotiation at a lower
value
(a) Shareholders must pay any taxes related to gain on shares.

Conclusion
Board conducted a thorough auction process that included
strategic and financial prospective buyers
The Doctors Company’s all cash $28 per share bid is the most
direct path to maximizing shareholder value
Fixed valuation
Certainty of closing
No shareholder approval required by The Doctors Company
Due to minimal disruption in current business, The Doctors Company’s
bid is less likely than an out-of-market acquiror
to result in a potential
MAE termination or negative shareholder vote
SCPIE’s financial fundamentals, competitive pressures, and current
prospects do not support a stand-alone strategy
