CRM Holdings, Ltd. (“CRM” or “the Company”) (Nasdaq: CRMH), a provider of a full range of products and services for the workers’ compensation insurance industry, today announced that it has received a “Notice of Imminent Enforcement Action” from the New York State Office of the Attorney General (“Attorney General”).

According to the Notice, the Attorney General intends to file civil claims against the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, and certain directors and officers to seek redress of allegedly unlawful practices, unless an acceptable settlement can be reached within five days. The Attorney General’s Notice follows over 19 months of investigation, during which time the Company has cooperated fully with the Attorney General’s office.

The Attorney General alleges that the Company and the other named parties engaged in fraudulent practices in connection with Compensation Risk Managers, LLC’s administration and marketing of workers’ compensation group self-insurance trusts in New York and in connection with the Company’s initial public offering completed in December 2005. These practices are alleged to have violated New York’s Executive Law and Martin Act. The Attorney General is intending to seek injunctive relief, restitution, damages, penalties, and costs.

The Attorney General’s Notice indicated that it remains open to resolving the investigation without litigation and has provided the Company and the named directors and officers with five days to present acceptable offers of settlement.

The Company is disappointed by the Attorney General’s decision to bring the lawsuit and dismayed that the Attorney General’s office chose to disclose the Notice before the indicated window for discussion had expired. The Company denies the Attorney General’s allegations and believes that its business and management practices in connection with the New York trusts were proper and that all material information was disclosed during its initial public offering. The Company believes that the Attorney General’s allegations are without merit, but is committed to resolving the Company’s legal issues in the best interests of its shareholders, employees, clients and other stakeholders.
