Brownnbsp;amp; Brown's business is divided into four reportable segments: the Retail Division, which provides a broad range of insurance products and services to commercial, public entity, professional and individual customers; the Wholesale Brokerage Division, which markets and sells excess and surplus commercial insurance and reinsurance, primarily through independent agents and brokers; the National Programs Division, which is composed of two units #8212; Professional Programs, which provide s professional liability and related package products for certain professionals delivered through nationwide networks of independent agents, and Special Programs, which markets targeted products and services designated for specific industries, trade groups, governmental entities and market niches; and the Services Division, which provides insurance-related services, including third-party claims administration and comprehensive medical utilization management services in both the workers' compensation and all-lines liability arenas, as well as Medicare set-aside services. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bPrinciples of Consolidation /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Brownnbsp;amp; Brown, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in the Consolidated Financial Statements. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bRevenue Recognition /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Commission revenue is recognized as of the effective date of the insurance policy or the date on which the policy premium is billed to the customer, whichever is later. At that date, the earnings process has been completed, and Brownnbsp;amp; Brown can reliably estimate the impact of policy cancellations for refunds and establish reserves accordingly. The reserve for policy cancellations is based upon historical cancellation experience adjusted based on known circumstances. The policy cancellation reserve was $5,559,000 and $7,796,000 at Decembernbsp;31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and it is periodically evaluated and adjusted as necessary. Subsequent commission adjustments are recognized upon receipt of notification from the insurance companies. Commission revenues are reported net of commissions paid to sub-brokers or co-brokers. Profit-sharing contin gent commissions from insurance companies are recognized when determinable, which is when such commissions are received, or when officially notified of the amount of such commissions. Fee income is recognized as services are rendered. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bUse of Estimates /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bCash and Cash Equivalents /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Cash and cash equivalents principally consist of demand deposits with financial institutions and highly liquid investments with quoted market prices having maturities of three months or less when purchased. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bRestricted Cash and Investments, and Premiums, Commissions and Fees Receivable /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"In its capacity as an insurance agent or broker, Brownnbsp;amp; Brown typically collects premiums from insureds and, after deducting its authorized commissions, remits the net premiums to the appropriate insurance company or companies. Accordingly, as reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, "premiums" are receivable from insureds. Unremitted net insurance premiums are held in a fiduciary capacity until Brownnbsp;amp; Brown disburses them. Brownnbsp;amp; Brown invests these unremitted funds only in cash, money market accounts, tax-free variable-rate demand bonds and commercial paper held for a short term. In certain states in which Brownnbsp;amp; Brown operates, the use and investment alternatives for these funds are regulated and restricted by various state laws and agencies. These restricted funds are reported as restricted cash and investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The interest income earned on these unremitted funds is reported as investment income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. /font/p p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"In other circumstances, the insurance companies collect the premiums directly from the insureds and remit the applicable commissions to Brownnbsp;amp; Brown. Accordingly, as reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, "commissions" are receivables from insurance companies. "Fees" are primarily receivables due from customers. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 1px;"nbsp;/p p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bInvestments /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Marketable equity securities held by Brownnbsp;amp; Brown have been classified as "available-for-sale" and are reported at estimated fair value, with the accumulated other comprehensive income (unrealized gains and losses), net of related income tax effect, reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Realized gains and losses and declines in value below cost that are judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are reflected in investment income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on securities classified as available-for-sale are included in investment income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. /font/p p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Non-marketable equity securities and certificates of deposit having maturities of more than three months when purchased are reported at cost and are adjusted for other-than-temporary market value declines. /font/p p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Net unrealized holding gains on available-for-sale securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income reported in shareholders' equity were $7,000 and $5,000 at Decembernbsp;31, 2010 and 2009, net of deferred income taxes of $4,000 and $3,000, respectively. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bFixed Assets /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Fixed assets, including leasehold improvements are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for improvements are capitalized, and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as incurred. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is reflected in other income. Depreciation has been determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to 15 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement or the term of the related lease. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bGoodwill and Amortizable Intangible Assets /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"The excess of the purchase price of an acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable tangible and amortizable intangible assets is assigned to goodwill. While goodwill is not amortizable, it is subject to at least an annual assessment, and more frequently in the presence of certain circumstances, for impairment by applying a fair value-based test. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives and are subject to an impairment review based on an estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset. The Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount to determine if there is potential impairment of goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the fair value of the goodwill within the reporting uni t is less than its carrying value. Fair value is estimated based on multiples of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"). Brownnbsp;amp; Brown completed its most recent annual assessment as of Novembernbsp;30, 2010 and identified no impairment as a result of the evaluation. In addition, as of Decembernbsp;31, 2010, there are no accumulated impairment losses. /font/p p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Amortizable intangible assets are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization, and consist of purchased customer accounts and non-compete agreements. Purchased customer accounts and noncompete agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related estimated lives and contract periods, which range from five to 15 years. Purchased customer accounts primarily consist of records and files that contain information about insurance policies and the related insured parties that are essential to policy renewals. /font/p p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"The carrying value of intangibles attributable to each business "region" comprising Brownnbsp;amp; Brown is periodically reviewed by management to determine if the facts and circumstances suggest they may be impaired. In the insurance agency and wholesale brokerage industry, it is common for agencies or customer accounts to be acquired at a price determined as a multiple of either their corresponding revenues or EBITDA. Accordingly, Brownnbsp;amp; Brown assesses the carrying value of its intangible assets by considering the estimated future cash flows generated by the corresponding region. Any impairment identified through this assessment may require that the carrying value of related intangible assets be adjusted; however, no impairments have been recorded for the years ended Decembernbsp;31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bIncome Taxes /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Brownnbsp;amp; Brown records income tax expense using the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying values and the income tax bases of Brownnbsp;amp; Brown's assets and liabilities. /font/p p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Brownnbsp;amp; Brown files a consolidated federal income tax return and has elected to file consolidated returns in certain states. Deferred income taxes are provided for in the Consolidated Financial Statements and relate principally to expenses charged to income for financial reporting purposes in one period and deducted for income tax purposes in other periods. /font/p p style="margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 1px;"nbsp;/p p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"bNet Income Per Share /b/font/p p style="margin-top: 6px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Effective in 2009, the Company adopted new Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") authoritative guidance that states that unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are participating securities and, therefore, are included in computing earnings per share ("EPS") pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Performance stock shares granted to employees under the Company's Performance Stock Plan are considered participating securities as they receive non-forfeitable dividend equivalents at the same rate as common stock. This new guidance was adopted via retroactive application for the years ended Decem bernbsp;31, 2008 and 2007, resulting in no change in either basic or diluted EPS for periods presented. /font/p p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"Basic EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average common shares issued and outstanding plus equivalent shares assuming exercise of stock options. The dilutive effect of stock options is computed by application of the treasury stock method. The following is a reconciliation between basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the years ended Decembernbsp;31: /font/p p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 12px;"nbsp;/p table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" align="center" trtd width="76%" /td td valign="bottom" width="2%" /td td /td td /td td /td td valign="bottom" width="2%" /td td /td td /td td /td td valign="bottom" width="2%" /td td /td td /td td /td/tr trtd valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap" p style="border-bottom: #000000 1px solid;

This guidance, which was incorporated into ASC Topic 105 #8212; Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, was effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after Septembernbsp;15, 2009.

Additionally, the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements (such as earn-out purchase arrangements) at the acquisition date must be included in the purchase price consideration. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. This guidance also modifies the recognition of pre-acquisition contingencies, such as environmental or legal issues, restructuring plans and acquired research and development value in purchase accounting. This guidance also amends ASC Topic 740 - Income Taxes, to requir e the acquirer to recognize changes in the amount of its deferred tax benefits that are recognizable because of a business combination, either in income from continuing operations in the period of the combination or directly in contributed capital, depending on the circumstances. This guidance, which was incorporated into ASC Topic 805 - Business Combinations, is effective for fiscal years beginning after Decembernbsp;15, 2008. Effective Januarynbsp;1, 2009, the Company adopted this guidance on a prospective basis. As a result, the recorded purchase price for all acquisitions consummated after Januarynbsp;1, 2009 will include an estimation of the fair value of liabilities associated with any potential earn-out provisions. Subsequent changes in these earn-out obligations will be recorded in the consolidated statement of income when incurred. Potential earn-out obligations are typically based upon future earnings of the acquired entities, usually between one and three years. /font/p gt; p style="margin-top: 12px; text-indent: 4%; margin-bottom: 0px;"font style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="_mt" size="2"In April 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under ASC Topic 350 ndash; Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. This guidance requires enhanced disclosures concerning a company's treatment of costs incurred to renew or extend the term of a recognized intangible asset. This guidance, which is incorporated into ASC Topic 350 ndash; Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after Decembernbsp;15, 2008.

As these assets are separately identifiable, this guidance requires an acquiring entity to account for defensive intangible assets as a separate unit of accounting which should be amortized to expense over the period the asset is expected to diminish in value. Defensive intangible assets must be recognized at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 805 ndash; Business Combinations, and ASC Topic 820 ndash; Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This guidance, which was incorporated into ASC Topic 350 ndash; Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after Decembernbsp;15, 2008.

Acquisitions in 2010

During 2010, Brown & Brown acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities of 33 insurance intermediaries and several books of business (customer accounts). The aggregate purchase price of these acquisitions was $186,783,000, including $158,636,000 of cash payments, the issuance of $759,000 in notes payable, the assumption of $2,298,000 of liabilities and $25,090,000 of recorded earn-out payables. All of these acquisitions were acquired primarily to expand Brown & Brown's core businesses and to attract and hire high-quality individuals. Acquisition purchase prices are typically based on a multiple of average annual operating profit earned over a one- to three-year period within a minimum and maximum price range. The recorded purchase price for all acquisitions consummated after January 1, 2009 included an estimation of the fair value of liabilities associated with any potential earn-out provisions. Subsequent changes in the fair value of earn-out obligations will be recorded in the consolidated statement of income when incurred.

The fair value of earn-out obligations is based on the present value of the expected future payments to be made to the sellers of the acquired businesses in accordance with the provisions outlined in the respective purchase agreements. In determining fair value, the acquired business's future performance is estimated using financial projections developed by management for the acquired business and reflects market participant assumptions regarding revenue growth and/or profitability. The expected future payments are estimated on the basis of the earn-out formula and performance targets specified in each purchase agreement compared to the associated financial projections. These payments are then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted rate that takes into consideration the likelihood that the forecasted earn-out payments will be made.

Based on acquisition date and the complexity of the underlying valuation work, certain amounts included in the Company's consolidated financial statements may be provisional and thus subject to further adjustments within the permitted measurement period, as defined in ASC Topic 805-Business Combinations.

These acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations and are as follows:

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Incentive Plan

On April 28, 2010, the shareholders of Brown & Brown, Inc. approved the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the "SIP") that provides for the granting of stock options, stock and/or stock appreciation rights to employees and Board members contingent on criteria established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Brown & Brown, Inc. The principal purpose of the SIP is to attract, incentivize and retain key employees by offering those persons an opportunity to acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in the Company's operations and future success. The SIP includes a sub-plan applicable to Decus Insurance Brokers Limited ("Decus") which, together with its parent company, Decus Holdings (U.K.) Limited, are the Company's only foreign subsidiaries. The shares of stock reserved for issuance under the Plan are any shares that are authorized to be issued under the Performance Stock Plan ("PSP") that are not already subject to grants under the PSP, and that were outstanding as of April 28, 2010, the date of suspension of the PSP, together with PSP shares and SIP shares that are forfeited after that date. As of April 28, 2010, 6,046,768 shares were available for issuance under the PSP.

In 2010, a grant of 187,040 shares was made under the SIP. This grant was conditioned upon the surrender of 187,040 shares previously granted under the PSP in 2009, which were accordingly treated as forfeited PSP shares. The vesting conditions of this grant were identical to those provided for in connection with the 2009 PSP grant; thus the target stock prices and the periods associated with satisfaction of the first and second conditions of vesting were unchanged. Additionally, grants totaling 5,205 shares were made in 2010 to Decus employees under the SIP sub-plan applicable to Decus. As of December 31, 2010, 38,449 shares met the first condition for vesting and had been awarded. At December 31, 2010, 6,340,384 shares are available for future grants, of which 1,507,755 of these shares are r eserved for grants with PSP-type vesting conditions.

Performance Stock Plan

Brown & Brown has adopted and the shareholders have approved a performance stock plan, under which up to 14,400,000 PSP shares may be granted to key employees contingent on the employees' future years of service with Brown & Brown and other criteria established by the Compensation Committee of Brown & Brown's Board of Directors. Before participants may take full title to Performance Stock, two vesting conditions must be met. Of the grants currently outstanding, specified portions will satisfy the first condition for vesting based on 20% incremental increases in the 20-trading-day average stock price of Brown & Brown's common stock from the initial grant price specified by Brown & Brown. Performance Stock that has satisfied the first vesting condition is considered "awarded shares." Awa rded shares are included as issued and outstanding common stock shares and are included in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS. Dividends are paid on awarded shares and participants may exercise voting privileges on such shares. Awarded shares satisfy the second condition for vesting on the earlier of a participant's: (i) 15 years of continuous employment with Brown & Brown from the date shares are granted to the participants (or, in the case of the July 2009 grant to Powell Brown, 20 years); (ii) attainment of age 64; or (iii) death or disability. At December 31, 2010, 7,867,371 shares had been granted under the plan at initial stock prices ranging from $1.90 to $30.55. As of December 31, 2010, 3,391,519 shares met the first condition for vesting and had been awarded, and 2,075,517 shares satisfied both conditions for vesting and had been distributed to the participants. On April 28, 2010, the PSP was suspended and any remaining authorized b ut unissued shares, as well as any shares forfeited in the future, will be reserved for issuance under the SIP.

The Company uses a path-dependent lattice model to estimate the fair value of PSP grants on the grant date. A summary of PSP activity for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:


	Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value		Granted Shares			Awarded Shares			Shares Not Yet Awarded

The weighted average grant-date fair value of PSP grants for years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was $9.67, $11.80, and $9.41, respectively. The total fair market value of PSP grants that vested during each of the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was $31,965,000, $1,412,000, and $685,000, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has a shareholder-approved Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") with a total of 12,000,000 authorized shares and 2,785,310 available for future subscriptions. Employees of the Company who regularly work more than 20 hours per week are eligible to participate in the ESPP. Participants, through payroll deductions, may allot up to 10% of their compensation, to a maximum of $25,000, to purchase Company stock between August 1 of each year to the following July 31st (the "Subscription Period") at a cost of 85% of the lower of the stock price as of the beginning or ending of the Subscription Period.

The Company estimates the fair value of an ESPP share option as of the beginning of the Subscription Period as the sum of: (1) 15% of the quoted market price of the Company's stock on the day prior to the beginning of the Subscription Period, and (2) 85% of the value of a one-year stock option on the Company stock using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The estimated fair value of an ESPP share option as of the Subscription Period beginning in August 2010 was $4.01. The fair value of an ESPP share option as of the Subscription Periods beginning in August 2009 and 2008, was $5.78 and $4.41, respectively.

For the plan years ended July 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, the Company issued 500,334, 579,104 and 672,222 shares of common stock in August 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These shares were issued at an aggregate purchase price of $8,325,548 or $16.64 per share in 2010, $9,358,000 or $16.16 per share in 2009 and $10,036,000 or $14.93 per share in 2008.

For the five months ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 of the 2010-2011, 2009-2010 and 2008-2009 plan years, 206,201, 250,414 and 257,643 shares of common stock (from authorized but unissued shares), respectively, were subscribed to by participants for proceeds of approximately $3,400,000, $3,826,000 and $4,164,000, respectively.

Incentive Stock Option Plan

On April 21, 2000, Brown & Brown adopted, and the shareholders approved, a qualified incentive stock option plan (the "ISOP") that provides for the granting of stock options to certain key employees for up to 4,800,000 shares of common stock. On December 31, 2008, the ISOP expired. The objective of the ISOP was to provide additional performance incentives to grow Brown & Brown's pre-tax income in excess of 15% annually. The options were granted at the most recent trading day's closing market price and vest over a one-to-10-year period, with a potential acceleration of the vesting period to three to six years based upon achievement of certain performance goals. All of the options expire 10 years after the grant date.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options on the grant date. The Company granted 1,445,000 option shares during the year ended December 31, 2008 under the ISOP but did not grant any options during the year ended December 31, 2007. The weighted average fair value of the incentive stock options granted during 2008 estimated on the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was $4.92 per share. The fair value of these options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions: dividend yield of 1.41%; expected volatility of 26.0%; risk-free interest rate of 3.14%; and an expected term of six years.

The risk-free interest rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve on the date of grant with a remaining term approximating the expected term of the option granted. The expected term of the options granted is derived from historical data; grantees are divided into two groups based upon expected exercise behavior and are considered separately for valuation purposes. The expected volatility is based upon the historical volatility of the Company's common stock over the period of time equivalent to the expected term of the options granted. The dividend yield is based upon the Company's best estimate of future dividend yield.

A summary of stock option activity for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:
