Explanation of Responses:

1. Shares received in exchange for shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock of Travelers Property Casualty Corp. ("Travelers") in connection with the merger between Travelers and The St. Paul Companies, Inc. ("St. Paul"). Pursuant to the merger, each share of Travelers Class A and Class B Common Stock was exchanged for .4334 of a share of The St. Paul Travelers Companies, Inc. ("St. Paul Travelers") Common Stock, with cash paid for any fractional Travelers share. On April 1, 2004, the effective date of the merger, the closing price of St. Paul Common Stock was $40.77, and the closing prices of Travelers Class A and Class B Common Stock were $17.57 and $17.40 per share, respectively.

2. Includes 5,988.66 shares of deferred, unissued Common Stock granted pursuant to the Travelers Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors.

3. Option received in the merger between Travelers and St. Paul in exchange for an option to purchase Travelers Class A Common Stock. In the merger, each outstanding option to purchase Travelers Common Stock was converted to an option to purchase shares of St. Paul Travelers Common Stock on substantially the same terms, except that the number of shares was adjusted by multiplying the number of Travelers option shares by .4334 (rounding down to the nearest whole number) and the option exercise price was adjusted by dividing the Travelers exercise price by .4334.

4. Option vests over five years in 20% annual increments beginning one year after the date of grant. The date exercisable reported in the table is the first 20% vesting date.
