, and subject to certain limitations, “insurance income” is income (including premium and investment income) attributable to the issuing of any insurance or reinsurance contract which would be taxed under the portions of the Code relating to insurance companies if the income were the income of a U.S. insurance company. Generally, the term “related person” for this purpose means someone who controls or is controlled by the U.S. RPII Shareholder or someone who is controlled by the same person or persons who control the U.S. RPII Shareholder. Control generally is measured by a greater than 50% ownership interest, applying certain constructive ownership principles. However, the RPII rules generally do not apply with respect to a non-U.S. corporation if either (i) at all times during its taxable year less than 20% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the corporation entitled to vote and less than 20% of the total value of the corporation is owned (directly or indirectly) by persons who are (directly or indirectly) insured under any policy of insurance or reinsurance issued by the corporation or who are related persons to any such person (the “ownership exception”), or (ii) the RPII (determined on a gross basis) of the corporation for the taxable year is less than 20% of its gross insurance income for the taxable year (the “de minimis exception”).

We believe that each of our non-U.S. Operating Subsidiaries and Peregrine is a RPII CFC. Nonetheless, we expect that each such company will qualify for one or both of the ownership exception and the de minimis exception in the current taxable year and for the foreseeable future. However, no assurances can be provided that any of our companies will satisfy either exception.

#### Computation of RPII
In order to determine how much RPII, if any, a non-U.S. insurance subsidiary (including for this purpose, Peregrine) has earned in each taxable year, our non-U.S. insurance subsidiaries may obtain and rely upon information from their insureds and reinsureds to determine whether any of the insureds, reinsureds or persons related thereto own (directly or indirectly through certain entities) shares of Aspen Holdings and are U.S. Persons. Aspen Holdings may not be able to determine whether any of the underlying direct or indirect insureds to which our non-U.S. insurance subsidiaries provide insurance or reinsurance are direct or indirect shareholders or related
