Safe Harbor Disclosure Statements in this presentation that are not historical facts, including statements regarding our estimates, beliefs, expectations, intentions, strategies or projections, may be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws, including the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend these forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in the United States securities laws. In some cases, these statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “plan,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential,” “intend” or similar expressions. Our expectations are not guarantees and are based on currently available competitive, financial and economic data along with our operating plans. Forward-looking statements contained in this presentation may include, but are not limited to, information regarding our estimates of losses related to hurricanes and other catastrophes, our expectations regarding pricing and other market conditions, our growth prospects, the amount of our acquisition costs, the amount of our net losses and loss reserves, the projected amount of our capital expenditures, managing interest rate and foreign currency risks, valuations of potential interest rate shifts and foreign currency rate changes and measurements of potential losses in fair market values of our investment portfolio. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual events or results may differ materially from our expectations. Important factors that could cause actual events or results to be materially different from our expectations include (1) our limited operating history, (2) the occurrence of natural and man-made disasters, (3) actual claims exceeding our loss reserves, (4) the failure of any of the loss limitation methods we employ, (5) the effects of emerging claims and coverage issues, (6) the failure of our cedants to adequately evaluate risks, (7) the loss of one or more key executives, (8) a decline in our ratings with rating agencies, (9) loss of business provided to us by our major brokers, (10) changes in governmental regulations, (11) increased competition, (12) general economic conditions, (13) changes in the political environment of certain countries in which we operate or underwrite business and (14) other matters that can be found in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-looking Statements

Non-GAAP Disclosure We have presented diluted book value per common share calculated using the “if converted” method, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.  This measure takes into account the effect of the full conversion of our outstanding stock options, warrants, restricted stock and phantom stock units.  As we have no present plans to reacquire such dilutive securities, the calculation assumes the retention of all proceeds upon exercise and the resulting issuance of common shares to remain outstanding.  Because we had dilutive common shares outstanding in each of the periods presented, we believe diluted book value per share provides useful information for investors to measure shareholder returns. This measure should not be viewed as a substitute for book value per share, the most comparable GAAP generated measure. A reconciliation of diluted book value per share to basic book value per share is presented on page 17 of this presentation.
