Leeward Group on the Verge of Being in the Top 30% of Agencies in the US

   Leeward Group Holdings Inc. (OTCBB: PCPZ) is on the verge of being among the top 30% of independent insurance agencies in the United States and the Company is moving closer to its goal of being named as a Top 100 Agency. Based on a 2008 study by the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America: 68% of the independent insurance agencies sampled have $1.25 Million or less in Commission Income. Leeward Group finished 2009 with over $10 million in premiums and over $1 million in commission income.

The Company anticipates that it will be in the top 30% of independent insurance agencies by the end of this year. Thus far in 2010, the Group added three new sales people and closed on one agency acquisition (December 2009). These additions should assist in aiding Leeward's growth in 2010 and beyond. According to Kevin Coughlin, CEO of Leeward Group, "Our goal is to be a top 100 agency within a short time period. We estimate that it will take about $80 Million in premiums to make the list. We have not had a shortage of agency owners approaching us about selling their agency."

Leeward Group Holdings Inc. through its wholly owned subsidiaries operates a full-service insurance agency and consulting firm serving businesses and individuals throughout the Northeastern United States.

The Company is based in Pennington, New Jersey and it has five retail locations. Three of the locations are in New England while the other two are in the Mid-Atlantic. With licenses in all 50 States, the Company offers Property & Casualty, Life & Health and specialty insurance programs for business, individuals, associations and groups throughout the United States.
