        (a)        Pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, Zions is the beneficial owner of 2,363,636 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 32.3% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.(1)

        Because each of the Bland Parties and the Thoms Parties have agreed pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement to vote their shares of capital stock of Quotesmith, and any shares of capital stock of Quotesmith for which they have voting rights, to elect the Zions Director, Zions, the Bland Parties and the Thoms Parties may be deemed to constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act. Zions disclaims the existence of a group with the Bland Parties and the Thoms Parties, and neither the fact of this filing nor anything contained herein shall be deemed to be an admission by Zions that such a group exists.

        The information in this Amendment (including Schedule 2) with respect to the Bland Parties and the Thoms Parties is based solely on information provided by Quotesmith to Zions. As of the date of this Amendment, each of Bland, Mrs. Bland and Southcote is the beneficial owner of 2,355,445 shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Act, representing approximately 32.2% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.

Each of the Bland Parties and the Thoms Parties have the sole power to vote and dispose or direct the vote or disposition of all of their respective shares of Common Stock listed in Item 5(a). In addition, because each of the Bland Parties and the Thoms Parties have agreed pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement to vote their shares of capital stock of Quotesmith, and any shares of capital stock of Quotesmith for which they have voting rights, to elect the Zions Director, Zions may be deemed to have shared power to vote or direct the voting of the 3,025,696 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Bland Parties and the Thoms Parties in the aggregate.

        Each of the Bland Parties’ principal business and principal office address is 8205 South Cass Avenue, Suite 102, Darien, Illinois 60561. Bland is the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quotesmith. Mrs. Bland is a homemaker. Southcote is a holding company for all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Bland and Mrs. Bland. Each of Bland and Mrs. Bland are U.S. citizens. Southcote is a Delaware limited partnership.

        Each of the Thoms Parties’ principal business and principal office address is 8205 South Cass Avenue, Suite 102, Darien, Illinois 60561. Thoms is the Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer and Director of Quotesmith. Mrs. Thoms is a homemaker. Each of Thoms and Mrs. Thoms are U.S. citizens.

        During the past five years, to the best knowledge of Zions, none of the Bland Parties or the Thoms Parties has (1) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (2) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
____________________


(1)
