ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
Hamilton, Bermuda (May 1, 2007): The Joint Liquidators of Trenwick Group
Limited (the Company) are providing holders of the Company's Common Shares, par
value $0.10 per share (the "Common Shares") with a status report of the affairs
of the Company by way of filing the report attached hereto on this Form 8-K.
The Joint Liquidators previously notified holders of Common Shares of their
intention to limit the Company's public announcements to material events
relating to the Company's winding-up (liquidation) proceedings in Bermuda. The
Joint Liquidators also notified holders of Common Shares of their intention to
disclose any such event to the public by filing with the US Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) a current report on Form 8-K, and, subject to the
resources available to the Company, to report on the status of the Company's
affairs at least annually. The report being filed on this Form 8-K is one of
such reports. The Joint Liquidators previously notified holders of Common
Shares that reports on the Company's affairs (including the report being filed
herewith) will not be mailed to holders of Common Shares, unless the Joint
Liquidators are required to do so or unless the Joint Liquidators believe, in
their sole judgment, that it is in the best interest of the Company's
stakeholders.
The Company's current reports on Form 8-K are available free of charge at the
SEC's website www.sec.gov.
