PEORIA, Ill.--(Business Wire)--
RLI Corp. (NYSE:RLI) -- RLI Transportation's Commercial Auto Unit
announced the roll out of an improved mono-line commercial auto
coverage targeting the healthcare industry - including hospitals,
cancer centers, large clinics and other healthcare-related facilities.

   The enhanced program now includes ambulances, employee shuttles,
and vehicles driven by home healthcare nurses and visiting nurses. RLI
Transportation Assistant Vice President Eric Galisdorfer explained,
"We recognize the benefits to insureds of including emergency and
nonemergency vehicles under a single policy and providing Symbol 1
coverage. Combined with our A+ admitted paper, our own expert claims
handling, and our payment plan options, this program streamlines what
can be a disjointed commercial auto insurance buying process for many
healthcare organizations - we provide a simpler and more comprehensive
solution at a very competitive price."

   Mr. Galisdorfer added, "RLI Transportation is excited to build on
our strong reputation in the hospital insurance segment. Expanding our
coverage is, once again, making it easier for our brokers to do
business with us."

   The hospital coverage is admitted in all states except Alaska,
Hawaii, La. and Mass. Minimum premiums start at $10,000. Stand alone
nursing home entities are not eligible.

   RLI is a specialty insurance company serving "niche" or
underserved markets. Its proven, superior underwriting model creates
the flexibility to write unique coverages in a wide array of diverse
industries. RLI's subsidiaries - RLI Insurance Company, Mt. Hawley
Insurance Company and RLI Indemnity Company - are rated A+ "Superior"
by A.M. Best Company and A+ "Strong" by Standard & Poor's. RLI
operates in all 50 states from office locations across the country.
