BIG INDEPENDENT CITIES EXCESS POOL
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30,2003 and 2002
Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Organization and-Operations
Big Independent Cities Excess Pool (BICEP) was created effective September 23, 1988, by
a joint powers agreement among five cities organized and operating under the laws of the
State of California. BICEP is organized pursuant to the provisions of the California
Government Code for the purpose of providing joint insurance coverage and related risk-
management services for member cities. The extension of joint insurance coverage to
member cities began October 1, 1988.
BICEP's liability program has offered a combination of pooled and commercially purchased
public auto and general liability coverages,plus errors and omissions coverage, for losses in
excess of the member cities' specified self-insurance retention levels of one million dollars.
Individual and aggregate claims in excess of specified levels are covered by excess
insurance policies purchased from commercial insurance carriers which, combined with the
program's self-funded layers, offer a total of$25 million in coverage limits. Additionally,
through its broker, Driver Alliant, it enables its members to purchase worker's
compensation insurance as a group. Property insurance was offered until 2002.
BICEP is a nonprofit California public agency; thus, it is tax-exempt. It is also considered a
"Special District" by the Office of the State Controller, Division of Local Government
Fiscal Affairs, for the purpose of filing an Annual Report of Financial Transactions of
Special Districts.
Basis of Accounting
The accounting records of BICEP are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting.
Bond Issuance Costs
Bond issuance costs are amortized over the life of the bond issue using the straight line
method. In 1996 due, in part, to more advantageous interest rates, the 1988 bond issue was
retired and new bonds were issued carrying substantially lower interest rates. Cost of
issuance expense and the premium paid on retirement are being amortized over the
remaining life of the original issue. See note 4 for further explanation,
Cash and Cash Equivalents
BICEP considers money market funds and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with
a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

G INDEPENDENT CITIES EXCESS POOL
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)
Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents funds held in trust for payment of bond principal and interest,
future debt service, and claims payment.
Rebatable Arbitrage Earnings
Rebatable arbitrage earnings represents the excess of the amount earned on all cash
equivalents and investments over the amount which would have been earned if such cash
equivalents and investments were invested at a rate equal to the bond yield for activity
through January 1, 1995. This excess is subject to change due to bond and investment
activity occurring after January 1, 1995. As of the report date there have not been any
rebates nor is it anticipated there will be.
Deposit Premium Revenue
Premiums are recognized as earned over the periods covered by the policies.
Under the terms of the Liability Risk Coverage Agreement,between BICEP and its member
cities,premium adjustments resulting in additional premium assessments or refunds were to
commence in February 1992, covering the experience of BICEP from inception. Premium
adjustments are subject to change as the ultimate cost of claims becomes known, investment
income and expenses are realized, and BICEP's costs are allocated to each Policy Year.
Presentation of premium adjustments has been changed to show the net favorable
adjustments as equity, but as noted that amount can change as ultimate outcomes are
realized.
Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses
Estimated unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses include an amount for losses incurred
but not reported. These estimates have been discounted to their present value.
Liabilities are based on the estimated ultimate cost of settling the claims, including the
effects of inflation and other societal and economic factors. The previously noted claims
and ultimate recoveries will be deducted from the gross amount of unpaid losses.
Claims which have been incurred but not reported to the claims administrator at June 30,
2003 have been estimated through an independent actuarial analysis based on loss
development experience of BICEP and the member cities and available industry loss
development data.
BIG INDEPENDENT CITIES EXCESS POOL
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)
Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
BICEP's recognition of losses incurred but not reported is in conformity with Government
Accounting Standards Board(GASB 10),Accounting and Financial Reporting for Risk
Financing and Related Insurance Issues and the Risk Finance Omnibus (GASB 30) and the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants(AICPA) Statement of position 94-5.
At irregular intervals losses have occurred that fell either outside the usual insured layer by
the authority or outside the assumed coverages of the excess carrier. In isolated instances
BICEP has accepted claims liability along with the insurance carrier and the city of the
occurrence. In previous years there was a claim against a city involving due process in a
condemnation action, more recently a situation occurred in which one police officer shot
and killed another during a drug raid, a third such situation occurred during 2001 and a
fourth such incident lead to a disagreement that prompted Pomona's expulsion from the
pool in July 2003. See note 7.
Use of Estimates
Certain assets and liabilities are not subject to precise determination. Specifically, unpaid
loss and loss adjustment expense must be estimated. Those losses that have occurred and
not been reported can only be estimated by actuarial methods. From year ended June 30,
1995 to year ended June 30, 2000 the $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 loss layer originally carried
by BICEP was insured by outside carriers, reducing both the premiums and the risks to the
participating cities. Those losses in the $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 layer prior to July 1, 1994
generally have been reported but there is always the possibility of ultimate cost exceeding
original estimates. Additionally, as noted previously, there can be the risk of denial of
coverage in borderline circumstances. In the years ended after 2001 BICEP shared the
$1,000,000 to$2,000,000 layer due to increased costs of outside carriers.
Valuation of Investments
Investments prior to year ended June 30, 1998 were recorded at cost. Those investment
securities are now valued at market as required by Governmental Accounting Standards
Board(GASB 31),resulting in restatement of carrying values of investments and changes in
previously reported investment income prior to year ended June 30, 1998. The cumulative
effects of these adjustments are reflected in retained earnings. See note 5 for further
explanation.
Note 2 CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Under provisions of the California Government Code (Code), BICEP is authorized to invest

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
The Board of Directors
Big Independent Cities Excess Pool
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of the Big Independent Cities Excess Pool
(BICEP) at June 30, 2003, and 2002 and the related statements of operations and changes in
retained earnings and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of BICEP's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 2003 and 2002 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Big Independent Cities Excess Pool at June 30, 2003
and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
BICEP has more than 15 years of historical data for use in its estimates of incurred but not reported
claims and the corresponding premium adjustments. Although BICEP considers its experience and
industry data in determining such amounts, assertions and projections as to future events are
necessary and ultimate losses maybe higher or lower than amounts projected.
The comparative schedule of Claim Development, on pages 14 and 15 is not a required part of the
basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Governmental
Accounting Standards Board. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted
principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of
the supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion
on it. p

Note 4 BONDS PAYABLE, ADVANCE REFUNDING OF 1988 BOND ISSUE AND
REDEMPTION OF BONDS OUTSTANDING AS OF MARCH 1,2004(continued):
Interest on the 1996 bonds was payable semi-annually at rates ranging from 5.0%to 6.15%.
Principal maturities range from$625,000 to $1,215,000 and were due annually on March 1,
from 1997 through 2009.
The bonds maturing after March 1, 2004 were subject to optional early redemption on either
March 1, principal and interest payment date, or September 1, interest payment date, at a
premium,if any, as follows:
March 1, and September 1, 2004 101.0%
March 1, and September 1,2005 100.5%
March 1, 2006 and thereafter 100.0%
On March 1, 2004 the remaining bonds outstanding, principal amount $5,905,000, were
redeemed at 101 percent of face value as noted in the preceding schedule. The principal
payment of$1,005,000 plus accrued interest of$220,325 was also paid.
Remaining deferred balances relating to unamortized costs of both the 1996 issue and the
previously refunded original 1988 bond issue amounting $564,496 will be expensed in the
year ended June 30,2004.
Note 5 ESTIMATED FUTURE PREMIUM ADJUSTMENTS(RETAINED EARNINGS):
Until year ended June 20, 2002 BICEP's accounting has consistently charged or credited
annually results of operations to the participant cities because as a group they are
accountable for the benefits or lack thereof of the pool's operations. GASB 31 became
effective for years ended June 30, 1998 with retroactive adjustment of prior years' results
preferred.
Review of the relationship of cost to market values of investments at July 1, 1996 indicated
a minor difference between cost and market value of those investments held by the trustee
($26,568 of market value lower than cost on investments at cost of $15,649,511).
Accordingly,no adjustment was made at July 1, 1996.
At June 30, 1997 market exceeded cost by$75,565 and at June 30, 1998 market exceeded
cost by$172,618. At June 30, 1997 financial statements were restated as follows:

Note 6 EXCESS INSURANCE:
Historically BICEP has reinsured its risks under excess of loss reinsurance agreements for
the purpose of limiting its maximum exposure on any one loss or group of losses. BICEP is
contingently liable for losses and loss adjustment expenses related to ceded business to the
extent that its excess carrier is unable to fulfill its commitments. Management believes that
its excess carrier is and will continue to be able to satisfy its obligations under the
reinsurance agreement. There have been instances in which BICEP has paid claims in
excess of its layer of coverage or on ceded coverages due to special circumstances.
For the years beginning in the year ended June 30, 1995, and continuing through June 30,
2000, because of substantial reductions in rates, BICEP placed all of its liability coverages
with private insurance carriers. This included the $1 million to $2 million layer, which was
previously retained. In years after June 30, 2000 BICEP shared the $1,000,000 to
$2,000,000 layer with an excess carrier.
BICEP's liabilities for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses as of June 30, 2003 and
June 30, 2002, have been estimated net of amounts that would be recoverable from the
excess insurer. For the years ended June 30, 1995 through June 30, 2000 BICEP had no
direct liability having placed all of its coverages with outside carriers, except in those rare
instances that there was a reason to go beyond the coverage limitations. In years ended June
30,2002 and'2003, as previously noted,the$1,000,000 to $2,000,000 layer was shared.
Note 7 EXPULSION OF POMONA
Effective July 1, 2003, by refusing to pay its share of the premiums for the year 2003 —
2004 Pomona was expelled from BICEP. The matter arose over a denial of coverage by the
excess carrier on the matter of Kline versus Pomona. The computation of amounts due
from Pomona are subject to litigation and the various discussions in progress as of the date
of this report.

BIG INDEPENDENT CITIES EXCESS POOL
CLAIMS DEVELOPMENT INFORMATION
Ten years' Calculation through June 30,2003
Explanation of the Claims Development table on the preceding page
The table on the preceding page illustrates how BICEP's earned revenues and investment income
compare to related costs of loss and other expenses assumed by BICEP as of the end of each policy
year. The rows of the table are defined as follows: 1. This line shows the total of each fiscal year's
earned deposit premiums and investment income,net amounts earned for purchased reinsurance. 2.
This line shows each fiscal year's other operating costs including overhead and claims expense not
allocable to individual claims. 3. This line shows the estimated incurred losses and allocated loss
adjustment expenses as originally reported at the end of the first year in which the event that
triggered coverage under the contract occurred (both paid and accrued) net of loss assumed by
excess or reinsurers. 4. This line shows the cumulative amounts paid as of the end of successive
years for each policy year. 5. This section of rows shows how each policy year's incurred claims
and expenses increased or decreased as of the end of successive years. This annual re-estimation
results from new information received on known claims, re-evaluation of existing information on
known claims, as well as emergence of new claims not previously known. 6. This line compared
the latest re-estimated incurred claims and expenses amount to the amount originally established
(line 3) and shows whether this latest estimate of claims and expenses costs are greater or less than
originally thought. As data for individual policy years mature, the correlation between original
estimates and re-estimated accounts is commonly used to evaluate this accuracy of incurred claims
and expenses currently recognized in less mature policy years.
