June 14, 2007
Dear Shareholder:
     Recently, Triple-S Management Corporation sent its shareholders a general information package with documents that must be completed by each shareholder that decides to participate as a selling shareholder in our proposed initial public offering (the “IPO”). The package contains the terms, conditions and procedures that each selling shareholder must follow to participate in the IPO, and the documents that you and your spouse must execute if you wish to sell a portion of your common stock. These documents were sent in a separate envelope after the distribution of the materials regarding the Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held on June 24, 2007. Therefore, you should have received two envelopes from the Company: a first envelope with the Notice of Special Meeting and the Proxy Statement and a second envelope with the selling shareholder materials in connection with the proposed IPO.
     If you have not received the envelope with the materials to become a selling shareholder in the IPO, you should immediately contact Karen López Freytes, Esq. at (787) 749-4116. The original documents, correctly completed and executed by you, must be received by the Company no later than 12:00 noon on June 24, 2007. If you do not correctly complete the documents and return them to the Company on or prior to this date, you will not be able to participate in the IPO as a selling shareholder. The choice of whether to participate as a selling shareholder in the IPO is yours alone. None of the Company, its board of directors, its management or any underwriter is making any recommendation to you in this regard. Each shareholder must consult his/her advisor to make a decision. We encourage you to read these documents in their entirety once you have received them prior to making any decision.
     Also, for your quick reference, we have included as Annex A to this letter a list of the documents that you and your spouse must complete, execute and return if you decide to become a selling shareholder in the IPO. Further, we have attached on Annex B information regarding certain brokerage firms that may help you obtain the “Medallion Signature Guarantee” necessary to guarantee your signature in certain of the documents that must be executed by selling shareholders.
     We also take this opportunity to remind you of the importance of your participation in the Special Meeting of Shareholders of Triple-S Management Corporation to be held on June 24, 2007, at 9:00 a.m. at the Ponce de León Rooms A, B, and C of the Condado Plaza Hotel, 999 Ashford Avenue in San Juan, Puerto Rico. At the special meeting, the shareholders will consider and vote upon the proposal to amend our articles of incorporation to provide for the creation of two classes of common stock: class A common stock, which includes certain conversion provisions, and class B common stock, which includes certain anti-dilution provisions. The creation of the two classes of common stock is necessary to allow us to proceed with the proposed IPO.
     It is important that the greatest possible number of our shareholders participate and vote in the Special Meeting of Shareholders on June 24, 2007. I encourage you to return the executed proxy form requested by the Board of Directors to the addresses that appear in the Proxy Statement.
     If you have any questions regarding this letter or the IPO process, please contact Karen López Freytes, Esq. at (787) 749-4116.
Sincerely,
 
 
 
Wilmer Rodríguez-Silva, M.D.
Chairman of the Board of Directors
