NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1. GENERAL

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(GAAP) and in accordance with Regulation S-X and include the accounts of Max Re Capital Ltd. (Max Re Capital), Max Re Ltd. (Max Re), Max Re Managers Ltd. (Max Re Managers), Max Europe Holdings Limited
and its subsidiary companies (collectively, Max Europe) and Max Re Diversified Strategies Ltd. (Max Re Diversified and, collectively with Max Re Capital, Max Re, Max Re Managers and Max Europe, the Company). In
the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all the normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position and results of operations as of the dates and for the periods presented.
The results of operations and cash flows for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Max Re Capital was incorporated on July 8, 1999 under the laws of Bermuda. The
Companys principal operating subsidiary is Max Re, a Bermuda long-term and Class 4 insurer. The Companys European activities are conducted from Dublin, Ireland through Max Europe Holdings Limited and its two wholly owned operating
subsidiaries, Max Re Europe Limited (Max Re Europe) and Max Insurance Europe Limited (Max Insurance Europe).

As
discussed more fully in the Companys Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2), filed November 13, 2006, the Company restated its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002 and 2001 first in
June 2006 and again in November 2006. The restatements resulted from the re-evaluation of accounting aspects relating to three retrocessional reinsurance contracts purchased in 2001 and 2003 and the determination to correct certain accounting
aspects of the three contracts and the subsequent finding of no risk transfer with respect to two of the three contracts. In addition, the Company restated its interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2006
and June 30, 2006. The effects of these restatements are reflected in the comparative amounts included in this Form 10-Q.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
(revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which replaced SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123) and superceded Accounting Principles Board (APB)
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123R requires all companies to recognize compensation costs for share-based payments to employees based on the grant-date fair value of the award. In January 2003,
the Company began expensing all stock-based compensation awards granted after January 1, 2003 under the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 and, therefore, the adoption of SFAS 123R did not have a material effect on the Companys
financial position or results of operations and is not expected to have a material effect on future operating results.

The Company adopted
SFAS 123R effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method to account for share based payments made to employees. The modified prospective method is similar to the modified prospective method described in SFAS 148. Under this
method, compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all
awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R that remain unvested on the effective date.

SFAS 123R requires
consideration of expected forfeitures in determining share-based employee compensation expenses as well as the immediate expensing of share-based awards granted to retirement-eligible employees. The Company has considered expected forfeitures and
awards granted to retirement-eligible employees in the determination of stock-based compensation expense and they did not have a material effect on operating results during the period.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation of $0.03 million and $0.08 million during the
three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, due to the adoption of FAS No. 123(R) related to the vesting in 2006 of options granted prior to January 1, 2003.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is based on weighted average common shares outstanding and excludes any dilutive effect of warrants, options and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share assumes the conversion of dilutive convertible
securities and the exercise of all dilutive stock warrants and options.

4. BANK LOAN

In February 2003, Max Re completed a $150.0 million sale of shares of Max Re Diversified to a third party financial institution. Simultaneous with the
sale, Max Re entered into a total return swap with the purchaser of these shares whereby Max Re received the return earned on the Max Re Diversified shares in exchange for a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR plus a spread. Max Re Diversified
shares owned by Max Re with a fair value of $101.5 million at September 30, 2006 were pledged as collateral to which the Company is exposed to credit risk. Under generally accepted accounting principles, these transactions are viewed on a
combined basis and accounted for as a financing transaction, which resulted in the recording of a $150.0 million bank loan. In February 2005, the parties amended the swap transaction principally to extend the swap termination date to February 2007,
with provisions for earlier termination in the event that the Company fails to comply with certain covenants, including maintaining a minimum financial strength rating and a minimum Max Re Diversified net asset value. At termination, the purchaser
has the option to sell the Max Re Diversified shares to Max Re at a price equal to the fair value of the Max Re Diversified shares on the date of repurchase.

5. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The
Company operates in three segments: property and casualty reinsurance, property and casualty insurance and life and annuity reinsurance. Within the property and casualty reinsurance segment, the Company generally offers quota share and excess of
loss capacity providing coverage for a portfolio of underlying risks written by our clients. In the property and casualty insurance segment, the Company generally offers excess of loss capacity on specific risks related to one insured. Within the
life and annuity reinsurance segment, the Company generally offers reinsurance products focusing on existing blocks of business, which take the form of co-insurance transactions. In co-insurance transactions, risks are reinsured on the same basis as
the original policies. The Company also has a corporate function that includes its investments and financing activities. The Company does not allocate assets by segment.

The variable quota share retrocession agreement with Grand Central Re is principally
collateralized on a funds withheld basis. The rate of return on funds withheld is based on the average of two total return fixed maturity indices. The interest expense recognized by the Company will vary from period to period due to changes in the
indices. The Company records the change in interest expense through the statement of income and comprehensive income on a monthly basis.

The Company believes that the terms of the insurance management, quota share retrocession and aggregate stop loss agreements are comparable to the terms that the Company would expect to negotiate in similar transactions with unrelated
parties.

8. COMMITMENTS

Credit Facilities

The Company has three credit facilities as of September 30, 2006. The Companys primary credit facility, entered into in June 2005, provides $450.0 million of credit capacity and is with a syndicate of
commercial banks, one of which, Citibank, N.A., is affiliated with a director of Max Re Capital. The Company replaced its then existing credit facility with this new facility principally to increase credit capacity from $300.0 million to $450.0
million, to provide that a portion of the facility be available for loans to Max Re or Max Re Capital as well as letters of credit for Max Re and to permit that a portion of the facility be unsecured. In accordance with this credit facility
agreement, the syndicate will issue letters of credit on behalf of Max Re that may total up to $350.0 million secured by fixed maturities and will issue additional unsecured letters of credit on

behalf of Max Re or make unsecured loans to Max Re or Max Re Capital up to an aggregate of $100.0 million, with a maximum of $50.0 million to Max Re Capital.
The Company believes that the terms of this credit facility are comparable to the terms that the Company would expect to negotiate with an unrelated party. At September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, letters of credit totaling $341.9
million and $320.9 million, respectively, were issued and outstanding under this facility. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, there were no unsecured loans issued under this facility. Fixed maturities and cash equivalents with
a fair value of $396.7 million and $351.5 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively, were pledged as collateral for these letters of credit.

The Company also has a $50.0 million letter of credit facility with the New York branch of Bayerische Hypo- und Vereinsbank AG (HVB). HVB is
the majority shareholder of Grand Central Re, which is managed by Max Re Managers and in which the Company has 7.5% equity interest. The Company believes that the terms of this letter of credit facility are comparable to the terms that the Company
would expect to negotiate at arms length with an unrelated party. At September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, letters of credit totaling $49.4 million and $49.7 million, respectively, were issued by HVB under this facility. All
letters of credit issued under this facility are collateralized by a portion of the Companys invested assets. Fixed maturities and cash equivalents with a fair value of $56.1 million and $54.2 million at September 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, respectively, were pledged as collateral for these letters of credit.

In November 2004, the Company entered into a
$20.0 million letter of credit facility with ING Bank N.V., London Branch (ING). At September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, letters of credit totaling $20.0 million were issued by ING under this facility. All letters of
credit issued under this facility are collateralized by a portion of the Companys invested assets. Fixed maturities and cash equivalents with a fair value of $23.3 million and $22.6 million at September 30, 2006 and December 31,
2005, respectively, were pledged as collateral for these letters of credit.

Each of the credit facilities requires that the Company and/or
certain of its subsidiaries comply with certain covenants, including a minimum consolidated tangible net worth and restrictions on the payment of dividends. The Company was in compliance with all the covenants of each of its credit facilities at
September 30, 2006.

9. STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

In June 2000, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of a Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan) under which it may award, subject to
certain restrictions, Incentive Stock Options (ISOs), Non-Qualified Stock Options (NQSOs), restricted stock, share awards or other awards. In May 2002 and April 2005, the shareholders of the Company approved the
adoption of amendments to the Plan, increasing the maximum aggregate number of common shares available for awards under the Plan to 8,000,000. Only eligible employees of the Company are entitled to ISOs, while NQSOs may be awarded to
eligible employees, non-employee Directors and consultants. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee).

Stock Option Awards

Options that have been granted under the Plan have an exercise price equal to the market price
of the Companys common stock on the date of grant or are granted and priced on a prospective basis, and have a maximum ten-year term. The fair value of awards granted under the Plan are measured as of the grant date and expensed ratably over
the vesting period of the award, which is generally three years. All awards provide for accelerated vesting upon a change in control of the Company. Shares issued under the Plan are made available from authorized but unissued shares.

The Company granted 18,005 and 2,500 stock options during the three month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The fair value of stock options
granted during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing method with the following weighted average assumptions:

The Company recognized $0.2 million and $0.2 million of stock-based compensation expense related to stock option
awards for each of the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock option awards for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was $0.6 million and $0.6 million,
respectively. The Company did not capitalize any cost of stock-based compensation. As of September 30, 2006, the total compensation

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock issued under the Plan has terms set by the Committee. These shares contain certain restrictions relating to, among other things, vesting, forfeiture in the event of termination of employment and
transferability. Restricted stock awards are valued equal to the market price of the Companys common stock on the date of grant. At the time of grant, the fair value of the shares awarded is recorded as unearned stock grant compensation and is
presented as a separate component of shareholders equity. The unearned compensation is charged to income over the vesting period. Generally, restricted stock awards vest after three or four years. Total compensation cost recognized for
restricted stock awards was $3.4 million and $9.8 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $2.6 million and $7.4 million for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Overview

We are a Bermuda-based provider of reinsurance and insurance products for both the property and casualty and the
life and annuity markets. The property and casualty market currently provides more opportunities to us than the life and annuity market due to a shortage of capacity in certain product lines in the property and casualty market. We believe that the
substantial industry losses resulting from hurricanes in 2004 and 2005 and additional focus by buyers of reinsurance on catastrophe exposure management has resulted in improved premium rates, terms and conditions in the property insurance and
property catastrophe reinsurance markets despite additional capital entering the market. As a result, we intend to continue to grow our short-tail property insurance and property catastrophe reinsurance premium volume.

To manage reinsurance and insurance liability exposure, make investment decisions and assess overall enterprise risk, we model our underwriting and
investing activities on an integrated basis. Our integrated risk management, as well as terms and conditions of our products, provides flexibility in making decisions regarding investments. Our investments comprise a high grade fixed maturities
portfolio and an alternative investment portfolio that currently employs 10 strategies invested in approximately 50 underlying trading entities and two strategic reinsurance private equity investments. Our investment portfolio is designed to provide
diversification and to generate positive returns while attempting to reduce the frequency and

severity of loss outcomes. Based on fair value at September 30, 2006, the allocation of invested assets was approximately 71.9% in cash and fixed
maturities and 28.1% in alternative investments.

We are currently seeing increased opportunities to grow our existing underwriting
activities by expanding our current product range, and in order to allocate the necessary capital to these opportunities we have decided to change our allocation of invested assets. Our plan is to reduce our investment allocation to alternative
investments to represent between 15% and 20% of total invested assets, down from the current allocation of 28.1%. We intend to make the investment change in an orderly manner by reducing our alternative investment portfolio over the next twelve
months. This is consistent with our approach of deploying capital to attractive business opportunities as they arise and results from our integrated risk management process and the flexibility we have regarding our investment decisions.

Our principal operating subsidiary is Max Re. At September 30, 2006, Max Re had $1,241.0 million of shareholders equity. We conduct our
European activities through Max Europe Holdings and its operating subsidiaries, Max Re Europe and Max Insurance Europe. We also provide underwriting and administrative services on a fee basis through Max Re Managers. We hold all of our alternative
investments in Max Re Diversified, other than reinsurance private equity investments that are held by Max Re.

On October 29, 2006,
subsequent to the filing on June 7, 2006 of our Amendment to Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and the filing on February 15, 2006 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, we announced that the Audit and
Management Risk Committee (ARMC) had reopened its previously announced internal investigation that centered on a review of three finite property and casualty retrocessional contracts purchased in 2001 and 2003. The review was initiated
to consider whether these three contracts were properly accounted for by us, principally with respect to whether they contained sufficient risk transfer to meet the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 113 (SFAS
113) to be accounted for as reinsurance. The ARMC engaged its own law firm, which was assisted by accounting and actuarial consultants, to advise it in performing the internal review. In connection with the internal review, the ARMC
voluntarily contacted the SEC. In May 2006, the ARMC concluded its internal investigation and found that the review supported our original determination that the three contracts in question contained sufficient risk transfer to meet the requirements
of SFAS 113 to be accounted for as reinsurance. However, the review caused us to re-evaluate other accounting aspects of the three contracts. This re-evaluation led us to conclude that a restatement of our consolidated financial statements for the
years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002 and 2001 was warranted. Specifically, we restated to account for the bifurcation of the retrocessional contracts into retroactive and prospective components and to account for an additional
contractual feature on a gross basis as more fully described in our restated consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No.1) filed on June 7,
2006.

In October 2006, however, the ARMC received from the counter-party to two of these contracts additional information that was unknown
and unavailable to us at the May 2006 conclusion of the initial internal investigation. The ARMC immediately reopened its internal investigation to determine whether, in light of this additional information, these two contracts, which were entered
into in 2001, still satisfied the risk transfer requirements of SFAS 113. The additional information raised the possibility of the existence of an oral agreement that would negate risk transfer. The available evidence does not allow for a definitive
conclusion as to the existence of such an oral agreement. However, because some of the evidence suggests such an agreement, we believe that there is an insufficient basis to conclude that there was risk transfer with respect to these two contracts
and, accordingly, we have determined that it is appropriate to restate our financial statements for the years ending December 31, 2001 through 2005 and for each of the periods ended March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006 to reflect no risk
transfer for these two contracts. The additional information does not relate to the third contract reviewed in the initial internal investigation, which is with a different counter-party, and the accounting for that contract remains unchanged from
that reported on our Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1) filed on June 7, 2006. With this decision to restate, the ARMC has concluded its internal investigation. The restated financial for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003
were reported on our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) filed on November 13, 2006.

Executive Summary

For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, underwriting results have been favorable. In our casualty business an underlying loss analysis of our
general liability insurance business written in 2003, which is more seasoned due to the passage of time, is showing lower reported losses than originally estimated and has permitted us to recognize positive development of approximately $20.5 million
during the three months ended September 30, 2006. We have also benefited from a below average number of catastrophe events, generating strong results from our property catastrophe reinsurance and property insurance product lines. Our property
and casualty underwriting activities produced an 85.2% combined ratio (total losses and expenses as a percentage of net premiums earned) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to



16

##### Table of Contents

109.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. This significant improvement stems from the favorable loss results discussed above compared to the
unfavorable loss results due to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, which were recorded in the first nine months of 2005. Our alternative investments produced a 1.57% return during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to 4.50% for the
nine months ended September 30, 2005. The return of our alternative investment portfolio includes a loss of $35.0 million stemming from energy trading losses in certain hedge fund investments.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, our gross premiums written decreased 27.4% compared to the same period in 2005 due primarily to a
decrease in life and annuity business written during the nine months ended September 30, 2006, and our reduced participation on certain property and casualty reinsurance renewals. Our property and casualty insurance business produced an
increase of 12.6% in gross premiums written for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. Although overall property and casualty gross premiums written decreased, we have reduced our risk in certain exposure
areas in the period, and believe we have improved the diversification and return characteristics of our property and casualty liability portfolio.

Our current emphasis in our property and casualty reinsurance segment is on writing smaller accounts with a greater number of clients and varying the underlying exposures assumed. We continue to emphasize casualty lines in our property and
casualty reinsurance and insurance segments. We have been pleased with the market acceptance of our property catastrophe reinsurance capabilities and the growth in our property insurance volume. The addition and expansion of these shorter-tail lines
should allow us to continue to diversify our property and casualty exposures.

Our life and annuity reinsurance premium volume for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 was significantly lower than the same period of 2005, due to the closing of three transactions in 2005 that resulted in gross written premium of $269.1 million compared with one transaction in 2006 that resulted
in gross written premium of $41.9 million. We recognized $71.8 million in benefit expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $293.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

We expect volatility in our underwriting results arising from our reinsurance and insurance businesses. However, by carefully selecting line sizes of
business assumed, diversifying our underlying exposures, establishing contractual liability caps on our contracts and purchasing reinsurance and retrocessional reinsurance protection, we believe we manage, and will continue to manage, this
volatility effectively.

Losses and benefits represented our largest expense and property and casualty losses and life and annuity benefits
accounted for 70.4% of total liabilities at September 30, 2006. We established loss and benefit expenses using a combination of loss reserving techniques and actuarial methods. Loss and benefit expenses are reviewed regularly to reflect new
information that we receive. We conduct regular quarterly internal reviews of reserves and, in addition, the adequacy of our reserves is reviewed annually, during the fourth quarter of the year, by outside actuaries to corroborate managements
estimates. During our current quarterly review, we concluded that our general liability insurance business written in 2003 is more seasoned and is continuing to show lower reported losses than originally estimated. Accordingly, we reduced gross
reserves by $35.5 million and losses recoverable from reinsurers by $15.0 million, to reflect the change in estimates.

Net income for the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $121.5 million compared to $22.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were principally attributable to underwriting
income generated from our property and casualty business partially offset by decreased income from our alternative investments compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005
was net of $100.0 million in hurricane losses.

Our investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 produced a total
return of 2.52% compared to 3.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The cash and fixed maturities portfolio produced a total return of 2.79% during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to 3.19% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2005. During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, our alternative investments generated a 1.57% rate of return compared to a 4.50% rate of return for the same period in 2005. After a strong start to the year, our
alternative investments have not performed well for the last six months, including a loss of $35.0 million stemming from energy trading losses in certain hedge fund investments included in our Diversified Arbitrage strategy. While we are clearly
disappointed with the results of our alternative investment portfolio, it is worth noting that despite these losses, the portfolio has still produced a positive return for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

We continually assess our liquidity needs by monitoring and evaluating new business prospects and opportunities and the development of our existing
operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we generated $325.6 million of cash from operations, which is net of the change in alternative investments of $51.6 million, and invested $298.1 million in fixed maturities. We expect
to generate positive operating cash flow during 2006 principally through premium receipts and investment returns, which will be partially offset by paid losses on reinsurance and insurance obligations, as well as operating expenses.

Drivers of Profitability

Revenues

We derive operating revenues from premiums from our reinsurance and insurance businesses.
Additionally, we recognize returns from our investment portfolio.

Reinsurance and insurance premiums are a function of the amount and type
of contracts written as well as prevailing market prices. Property and casualty premiums are earned over the terms of the underlying contracts. Life and annuity reinsurance premiums are generally earned when the premium is due from policyholders.
Each of our reinsurance contracts contain pricing considerations and terms and conditions that influence expected returns on capital. Therefore, the amount of premiums is not necessarily an accurate indicator of our anticipated profitability.
Premium estimates are based upon information in underlying contracts, data received from clients and from premium audits. Changes in premium estimates for our property and casualty reinsurance business are expected and may result in significant
adjustments in any period. These estimates change over time as additional information regarding the underlying business volume of our clients is obtained. There is often a delay in the receipt of updated premium information from clients due to the
time lag in preparing and reporting the data to us. After review by our underwriters, we increase or decrease premium estimates as updated information from our clients is received. We are currently writing a greater number of excess of loss
contracts, which are less likely to have changes in premium estimates than quota share or proportional contracts.

Our net investment
income is a function of the average invested assets and the average yield that we earn on those invested assets. The investment yield on our fixed maturities investments is a function of market interest rates as well as the credit quality and
maturity of our fixed maturities portfolio. Our fixed maturities portfolio is composed of investment grade fixed maturities that are available for sale and, as a result, we record the investments at fair value on our balance sheet. The unrealized
gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair value and the amortized cost of the investments is recorded in other accumulated comprehensive income in the equity section of our balance sheet. We recognize realized capital gains or
losses on our fixed maturities investments at the time of sale. Fixed maturities are subject to fluctuations in fair value due to changes in the interest rates, changes in issuer specific circumstances such as credit rating and changes in industry
specific circumstances such as movements in credit spreads based on the markets perception of industry risks. As a result of these potential fluctuations, it is possible to have significant unrealized gains or losses on a security. Our
strategy for our fixed maturities portfolio is to tailor the maturities of the portfolio to the timing of expected loss and benefit payments. At maturity, a fixed maturitys amortized cost will equal its fair value and no realized gain or loss
will be recognized in income. If, due to an unforeseen change in loss payment patterns, we need to sell investments before maturity, we could realize significant gains or losses in any period, which could result in a meaningful effect on reported
net income for such period.

Our net gains on alternative investments are a function of the success of the funds in which we are invested,
which depends on, among other things, the underlying strategies of the funds, the ability of the fund managers to execute the fund strategies, general economic and investment market conditions and the underlying operating results of our private
equity reinsurance investments.

Expenses

Our principal expenses are losses and benefits, acquisition costs, interest expense and general and administrative expenses. Losses and benefits are based on the amount and type of reinsurance and insurance contracts
written by us during the current reporting period and information received during the current reporting period from clients pertaining to contracts written in prior years. We record losses and benefits based on actuarial estimates of the expected
losses and benefits to be incurred on each contract written. The ultimate losses and benefits depend on the actual costs to settle these liabilities. We increase or decrease loss and benefit estimates as actual claim reports are received. Our
ability to estimate losses and benefits accurately at the time of pricing our contracts is a critical factor in determining profitability.

Acquisition costs consist principally of ceding commissions paid to ceding clients and brokerage expenses, and typically represent a negotiated percentage of the premiums on reinsurance and insurance contracts written. We defer and amortize
these costs over the period in which the related premiums are earned. The acquisition costs are net of ceding commissions associated with premiums ceded on our reinsurance and insurance business. These ceding commissions are designed to compensate
us for the costs of producing the portfolio of risks ceded to our reinsurers.

Interest expense principally reflects the net interest
charge on funds withheld from reinsurers under reinsurance and retrocessional contracts. Interest is recorded on the funds withheld balances based on various contractual and negotiated rates. The interest expense attributable to the funds withheld
under a variable quota share retrocession agreement with Grand

Central Re, our largest funds withheld balance, is based on the average of two total return fixed maturity indices. A charge or credit may be recorded in
interest expense on this contract in any given period. As a result, interest expense is expected to vary from period to period with a corresponding entry to funds withheld. Interest expense on the remaining balance of funds withheld from other
reinsurers under reinsurance and retrocessional contracts will vary principally due to changes in the balance of funds withheld. In addition, interest expense also includes interest on deposit contracts and interest on the bank loan at a rate based
on LIBOR plus a spread.

General and administrative expenses are principally employee salaries and related personnel costs, office rent,
amortization of leasehold improvements, professional services and other operating costs. These costs are primarily fixed in nature, although they will vary as our staff expands or if we incur one time charges. They do not vary with the amount of
premiums written.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require management to make estimates and assumptions. We have performed a current assessment of our critical accounting policies in connection with preparing
our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006. We believe that the critical accounting policies set forth in our Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2), filed on
November 13, 2006, continue to describe the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. These accounting policies pertain to revenue recognition, loss and benefit expenses and
investment valuation. If actual events differ significantly from the underlying judgments or estimates used by management in the application of these accounting policies, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations and
financial condition.

Results of Operations

We operate in three segments: property and casualty reinsurance, property and casualty insurance and life and annuity reinsurance. Within the property and casualty reinsurance segment, we offer quota share and excess of loss capacity
providing coverage for a portfolio of underlying risks written by our clients. In the property and casualty insurance segment, we generally offer excess of loss capacity on specific risks related to one insured. Within the life and annuity
reinsurance segment, we currently offer reinsurance products focusing on existing blocks of business, which take the form of co-insurance transactions. In co-insurance transactions, risks are reinsured on the same basis as the original policies. We
also have a corporate function that includes our investment and financing activities. We do not allocate assets by segment.

Gross premiums written.Gross premiums written for the property and casualty reinsurance segment
for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were $98.7 million compared to $126.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 21.7%. The decrease is largely the result of $54.5 million of additional premium in
relation to one contract written in a prior year that was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2005. With the exception of the gross written premium on that contract, we have increased the volume of property and casualty
reinsurance business we are writing. We continue to focus on writing smaller accounts with a greater number of clients and varying the underlying exposures assumed. As a result the average contract size has decreased from approximately $3.5 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2005 to $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The level of business written in future periods will vary, perhaps materially, based upon market conditions and managements
assessment of the adequacy of premium rates relative to the underwriting risk being assumed. In the three months ended September 30, 2006, there were premium adjustments to a number of quota share treaties upon notification from cedants of
changes. As a result, we recorded an aggregate $8.1 million decrease in premium estimates on contracts written in a prior year.

Reinsurance premiums ceded. Reinsurance premiums ceded for property and casualty reinsurance for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were $6.1 million compared to $10.3 million for the three months ended September 30,
2005, a decrease of 40.8%. Reinsurance premiums ceded were principally related to our purchase of specific reinsurance to manage the risks associated with our reinsurance underwriting and to manage the exposure retained by us on certain
transactions, therefore the ratio of gross premiums written to reinsurance premiums ceded may fluctuate based on our assessment of exposure and the availability of retrocessional reinsurance capacity.

Net premiums earned.Net premiums earned for property and casualty reinsurance decreased by 38.0% to $98.1 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2006. The decrease is principally attributed to $46.3 million of additional net premiums written and earned on one contract written in a prior year during the three months ended September 30, 2005.

Losses.Losses relating to property and casualty reinsurance were $71.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to
$193.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 63.0%. The losses for the three months ended September 30, 2005 include $60.0 million of losses stemming from the hurricanes in the Gulf Coast of the United States
and $50.2 million of net losses in relation to additional losses notified on one contract written in a prior year. The loss ratio for our property and casualty reinsurance segment for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was 73.2% compared
to 122.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and reflects an increase in property and property catastrophe premium earned with no major catastrophes in the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with large catastrophe
losses in the three months ended September 30, 2005. There was net adverse development of approximately $5.0 million due to the re-estimation of liabilities for prior year reinsurance reserves during the three months ended September 30,
2006, principally due to additional loss notifications on property and marine business of $8.6 million in relation to our 2005 hurricane losses.

Acquisition costs.Acquisition costs were $18.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $19.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 8.6%. The decrease in acquisition
costs for the three months ended September 30, 2006 is due to lower average acquisition costs on premiums earned. Acquisition costs vary from contract to contract depending on characteristics such as the type of business, the clients cost
to administer the underlying contracts and the involvement of a broker. These factors may result in differences in the ratio of acquisition costs to net premiums earned from period to period.

General and administrative expenses.General and administrative expenses were $6.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006
compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 71.4%. The increase resulted principally from ongoing personnel and infrastructure costs associated with our reinsurance staff including additional property
catastrophe underwriters hired in the fourth quarter of 2005. The general and administrative expense to net premiums earned ratio was 6.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to 2.2% for the three months ended
September 30, 2005 and reflects the additional expenses and lower net premiums earned.

Net income.Net income attributable to
property and casualty reinsurance for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $2.4 million compared to $(58.8) million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The primary difference in net income for the three months ended
September 30, 2006 compared with the net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2005 is the $60.0 million of losses stemming from the hurricane activity during the three months ended September 30, 2005.

Our segment results do not include investment income or interest expense, which
are included in the corporate function.

The loss ratio is calculated by dividing losses (shown as (b)) by net
premiums earned (shown as (a)).

The combined ratio is calculated by dividing total losses and expenses (shown as (c)) by net premiums earned
(shown as (a)).

Gross premiums written.Gross premiums written for the property and casualty insurance segment for the three
months ended September 30, 2006 were $78.5 million compared to $70.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 11.8%. The increase is principally the result of the continued expansion of business written by our
property underwriting team. Typically, insurance business is written on an individual risk excess of loss basis with contractually defined premiums rather than estimates, which results in no material premium adjustments.

Reinsurance premiums ceded. Reinsurance premiums ceded for insurance for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were $32.6 million
compared to $24.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 34.7%. Reinsurance premiums ceded were principally related to our quota share treaties that are utilized to manage our retained exposure and, therefore,
will tend to increase when gross premiums written increase. The ratio of reinsurance premiums ceded to gross premiums written for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was 41.5% compared to 34.5% for the three months ended
September 30, 2005.

Net premiums earned.Net premiums earned for insurance increased by 6.3% to $48.7 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2006. The increase is principally attributable to increased volume in our existing insurance products and expansion of our property insurance underwriting activities.

Losses.Losses relating to insurance were $8.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $73.6 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 88.5%. The decrease is principally due to a reduction of the expected ultimate losses on our 2003 general liability insurance business. Our underlying loss analysis on this business is more
seasoned due to the passage of time and is showing lower estimated losses than originally recorded which has permitted us to recognize positive development of $20.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2006. In addition, a low
level of attritional property insurance losses during the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $40.0 million of catastrophe losses due to hurricane activity during the three months ended September 30, 2005 has impacted the
comparability between the two periods. The loss ratio for our insurance segment for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was 17.4% compared to 160.7% for the same period in 2005.

Acquisition costs.Acquisition costs were $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $0.1 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2005. The acquisition costs are net of ceding commissions associated with premiums ceded to our quota share partners. These ceding commissions are designed to compensate us for the costs of producing the portfolio of
risks ceded to our reinsurers. Acquisition costs during each of the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 consisted primarily of amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs incurred in connection with writing property and
casualty insurance business.

General and administrative expenses.General and administrative expenses were $3.9 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is due principally to additional personnel costs. The general and administrative expense to net premiums earned
ratio was 8.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to 5.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2005.

Net income.Net income attributable to the property and casualty insurance segment for the three
months ended September 30, 2006 was $36.2 million compared to $(30.2) million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were principally attributable to the low level of
catastrophic events during the three months ended September 30, 2006 and the favorable development of reserves on prior year general liability insurance business.

Our segment results
do not include investment income or interest expense, which are included in the corporate function.

The nature of life and annuity
reinsurance transactions that we consider results in a limited number of transactions actually bound with potentially large variations in quarterly and annual premium volume. Consequently, components of our underwriting results, such as premiums
written, premiums earned and benefits can be volatile and, accordingly, period to period comparisons are not necessarily representative of future trends. During the three months ended September 30, 2006, no new life and annuity contracts were
written and therefore, the comparisons for gross premiums written, gross premiums ceded, net premiums earned and acquisition costs are not beneficial. Benefits include regular accretion of existing liabilities together with benefits incurred on
transactions written during the period and so the benefits in the three months ended September 30, 2005 are higher due to the new contracts written during that period.

Although we expect to incur underwriting losses in connection with our life and annuity reinsurance contracts, we seek to achieve sufficient investment
income from premiums received to fund benefit payments as they occur and provide for a profit margin. Net loss attributable to the life and annuity reinsurance segment for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $10.4 million compared to
$10.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The results are driven by the accretion of the life and annuity reinsurance benefits over time.

ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 43.3%. The increase was principally attributable to the growth in the cash and fixed maturities portfolio from
$2,463.4 million at September 30, 2005 to $3,123.5 million at September 30, 2006, resulting from cash flow from operations since September 30, 2005 and the additional capital we raised in October and November 2005 in connection with a
public offering of our common shares. The average annualized investment yield on the cash, fixed maturities and funds withheld by clients for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was 4.83% compared to 4.15% for the three months ended
September 30, 2005, reflecting the increase in interest rates over the past year.

Net gains (losses) on alternative investments.Net losses on the alternative investment portfolio were $(31.0) million, or (2.33)%, including a gain of $4.0 million from our private equity reinsurance investments, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to a gain of $35.6
million, or 3.00%, including a loss of $(11.9) million from our private equity reinsurance investments, for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The negative return for the three months ended September 30, 2006 is due to losses of
$35.0 million stemming from energy trading losses in certain hedge fund investments included in our Diversified Arbitrage strategy.

Net
realized gains (losses) on sale of fixed maturities. Our fixed maturities investment strategy is not intended to generate significant realized gains and losses as more fully discussed above in Drivers of Profitability. The realized
losses in the three months ended September 30, 2006 of $(0.3) million and gains of $1.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2005, are the result of the sale of fixed maturities in connection with portfolio rebalancing
transactions.

Interest expense. Interest expense was $(1.6) million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to
$2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. Interest expense includes $6.4 million of interest expense pertaining to the funds withheld on the variable quota share retrocession agreement with Grand Central Re for the three
months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The interest expense on the Grand Central Re funds withheld is based on the average of two total return fixed maturity indices which
had a larger total return for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005.

Interest expense also includes the accretion of interest expense on a number of reinsurance contracts that are not deemed to transfer risk under the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 113 and therefore are
recorded as deposit liabilities on the balance sheet. These deposit liabilities are recorded on a net present value basis and an interest expense is accreted in order to grow the liability to the expected ultimate settlement amount. During the three
months ended September 30, 2006, we were notified by the cedant of one of the deposit contracts that the ultimate loss is expected to be lower than our original estimate. As a result we recognized a reduction in interest expense of $12.0
million in order to reflect the current net present value of our revised estimate.

General and administrative expenses.General and
administrative expenses were $10.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 an increase of 39.7%. The increase in general and administrative costs results
principally from increased fees for professional services related to the ARMCs re-opened internal review announced on October 29, 2006 and previously discussed above.

Our segment results do not include investment income or interest expense, which are
included in the corporate function.

Gross premiums written.Gross premiums written for the property and casualty reinsurance segment
for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $397.5 million compared to $474.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 16.2%. The decrease is largely the result of $54.5 million of additional premiums
pertaining to one contract written in a prior year, which was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease also reflects our decision to reduce our participation percentage on certain renewal business and is
partially offset by premiums written of approximately $52.0 million by our recently formed property catastrophe reinsurance team. We continue to focus on writing smaller accounts with a greater number of clients and varying the underlying exposures
assumed. As a result the average contract size has decreased from approximately $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 to $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The level of business written in future
periods will vary, perhaps materially, based upon market conditions and managements assessment of the adequacy of premium rates relative to the underwriting risk being assumed. In the nine months ended September 30, 2006, there were
premium adjustments to a number of quota share treaties upon notification from cedants of changes. As a result, we recorded an aggregate $25.3 million increase in premium estimates on contracts written in a prior year.

Reinsurance premiums ceded. Reinsurance premiums ceded for property and casualty reinsurance for the nine months ended September 30, 2006
were $33.7 million, unchanged from the the nine months ended September 30, 2005, even though gross premiums written declined in the period. Reinsurance premiums ceded were principally related to our purchase of specific reinsurance to manage
the risks associated with our reinsurance underwriting and to manage the exposure retained by us on certain transactions, therefore the ratio of gross premiums written to reinsurance premiums ceded may fluctuate based on our assessment of exposure
and the availability of reinsurance capacity at attractive prices.

Net premiums earned.Net premiums earned for property and
casualty reinsurance decreased by 21.6% to $315.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease is principally attributed to a reduction in gross premiums written.

Losses.Losses relating to property and casualty reinsurance were $225.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to
$367.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 38.9%. The losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 include $60.0 million of losses stemming from the hurricanes in the Gulf Coast of the United States
and $50.2 million of net losses pertaining to additional losses notified on one contract written in a prior year. The loss ratio for our property and casualty reinsurance segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was 71.3% compared
to 91.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. There was net adverse development of approximately $5.0 million due to the re-estimation of liabilities for prior year reinsurance reserves during the nine months ended September 30,
2006, principally due to additional loss notifications on property and marine business of $8.6 million in relation to our 2005 hurricane losses.

Acquisition costs.Acquisition costs were $57.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $58.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 2.4%. Acquisition costs vary from
contract to contract depending on characteristics such as the type of business, the clients cost to administer the underlying contracts and the involvement of a broker. These factors may result in differences in the ratio of acquisition costs
to net premiums earned from period to period.

General and administrative expenses.General and administrative expenses were $16.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 53.6%. The increase resulted principally from ongoing personnel and infrastructure costs associated
with our reinsurance staff including additional property catastrophe underwriters hired in the fourth quarter of 2005. The general and administrative expense to net premiums earned ratio was 5.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006
compared to 2.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and reflects the additional expenses and lower net premiums earned.

Net income.Net income attributable to property and casualty reinsurance for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $16.1 million compared to $(35.5) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The primary
difference in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 is the $60.0 million of losses stemming from hurricane activity impacting the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.

Our segment results do not include investment income or interest expense, which
are included in the corporate function.

Gross premiums written.Gross premiums written for the property and casualty insurance
segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $276.1 million compared to $245.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 12.6%. The increase is principally the result of the continued expansion of
business written by our property team.

Reinsurance premiums ceded. Reinsurance premiums ceded for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 were $136.2 million compared to $96.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 41.0%. Reinsurance premiums ceded were principally related to our quota share treaties that are utilized to
manage our retained exposure and, therefore, will tend to increase when gross premiums written increase. In addition, we purchased catastrophe reinsurance protection for certain property exposures. We have purchased more catastrophe protection
during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 than we purchased in the nine months ended September 30, 2005. We expect to continue to purchase such protection in order to reduce our exposure to large loss events. The ratio of reinsurance
premiums ceded to gross premiums written for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was 49.3% compared to 39.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Net premiums earned.Net premiums earned on insurance increased by 16.9% to $147.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase is principally attributable to increased volume in
existing insurance products and expansion of our property insurance underwriting activities.

Losses.Losses relating to insurance
were $83.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $131.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 36.6%. The decrease is principally due to a reduction of the expected ultimate losses on
our 2003 general liability insurance business. Our underlying loss analysis on this business is more seasoned due to the passage of time, and is showing lower estimated losses than originally recorded which has permitted us to recognize positive
development of $20.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006. In addition, a low level of attritional property insurance losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $40.0 million of catastrophe losses
due to hurricane activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 has affected the comparability between the two periods. The loss ratio for our insurance segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was 56.7% compared to
104.4% for the same period in 2005.

Acquisition costs.Acquisition costs were $0.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 compared to $(0.8) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The acquisition costs are net of ceding commissions associated with premiums ceded to our quota share partners. These ceding commissions are
designed to compensate us for the costs of producing the portfolio of risks ceded to our reinsurers.

General and administrative
expenses.General and administrative expenses were $10.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The general and administrative expense to net premiums
earned ratio was 7.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to 6.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is principally attributable to additional personnel costs.

Net income.Net income attributable to the property and casualty insurance segment for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 was $52.3 million compared to $(12.4) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The variance between the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and the nine months ended September 30,
2005 is principally attributable to the low level of catastrophic events during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the $40.0 million of hurricane losses in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and the release of $20.5
million of net reserves on prior year general liability insurance business during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Our segment results do not include investment income or interest expense, which are included in the corporate
function.

The nature of life and annuity reinsurance transactions that we consider results in a limited number of transactions actually
bound with potentially large variations in quarterly and annual premium volume. Consequently, components of our underwriting results, such as premiums written, premiums earned and benefits can be volatile and, accordingly, period to period
comparisons are not representative of future trends.

Gross premiums written. Gross premiums written for the life and annuity
reinsurance segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $44.2 million compared to $269.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Gross premiums written primarily relate to one reinsurance contract written during
the nine months ended September 30, 2006. We wrote three reinsurance contracts generating gross premiums written of $267.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Reinsurance premiums ceded. Gross reinsurance premiums ceded for the life and annuity reinsurance segment were $0.6 million for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2006 and $0.4 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005.

Net premiums earned.
Life and annuity reinsurance business written during the nine month period was fully earned in that period.

Benefits.Benefits
relating to the life and annuity reinsurance segment were $71.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $293.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Benefits include regular accretion of existing
liabilities together with benefits incurred on transactions written during the period. The decrease was principally due to the decline in premiums written and earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2005.

Acquisition costs.Acquisition costs were $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2006 compared to $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and relate to the regular amortization of deferred acquisition costs. The acquisition costs on the life and annuity reinsurance that we bind will vary from period to
period depending on brokerage rates.

General and administrative expenses.General and administrative expenses were $2.1 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Net loss.Although we expect to incur modest underwriting losses in connection with our life and annuity reinsurance business, we seek to achieve sufficient investment income from premiums received to fund benefit payments as they occur and provide for a
profit margin. Net underwriting loss attributable to the life and annuity segment for the nine months ended

Net investment income.Net investment income, excluding realized and unrealized gains and
losses, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased $33.5 million to $109.2 million compared to $75.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of 44.3%. The increase was principally attributable to the
growth in the cash and fixed maturities portfolio from $2,463.4 million at September 30, 2005 to $3,123.5 million at September 30, 2006, resulting from cash flow from operations since September 30, 2005 and the additional capital we
raised in October and November 2005 in connection with a public offering of our common shares. The average annualized investment yield on the cash, fixed maturities investments and funds withheld by clients for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 was 4.70% compared to 4.07% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Net gains on alternative
investments.Net gains on the alternative investment portfolio were $18.2 million, or 1.57%, including a gain of $7.1 million from our private equity reinsurance investments, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $53.6
million, or 4.50%, including a loss of $(6.1) million from our private equity reinsurance investments, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The return for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 is net of $35.0 million stemming
from energy trading losses in certain hedge fund investments included in our Diversified Arbitrage strategy.

Net realized gains
(losses) on sale of fixed maturities. Our fixed maturities investment strategy is not intended to generate significant realized gains and losses as more fully discussed above in Drivers of Profitability. The realized (losses) gains
for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 of $(7.3) million and $2.8 million respectively, are the result of the sale of fixed maturities in connection with portfolio rebalancing transactions.

Interest expense. Interest expense was $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $15.9 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of 60.4%. Interest expense includes $6.9 million of interest expense pertaining to the funds withheld on the variable quota share retrocession agreement with Grand Central Re for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 compared to $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The interest expense on the Grand Central Re funds withheld is based on the average of two total return fixed maturity indices, which had a smaller
total return for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Interest expense
also includes the accretion of interest expense on a number of reinsurance contracts that are not deemed to transfer risk under the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 113 and therefore are recorded as deposit
liabilities on the balance sheet. These deposit liabilities are recorded on a net present value basis and an interest expense is accreted in order to grow the liability to the expected ultimate settlement amount. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2006, we were notified by the cedant of one of the contracts, that the ultimate loss is expected to be lower than our original estimate. As a result we recognized a reduction in interest expense of $12.0 million in order to
reflect the current net present value of the revised loss estimate.

General and administrative expenses.General and administrative expenses were $29.8 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $20.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in general and administrative expenses results principally from increased fees for professional services related
to the ARMCs internal review announced on March 24, 2006 and reopened in October 2006. Our total general and administrative expenses for all segments to net premiums earned ratio was 11.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006
compared to 5.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Financial Condition

Cash and invested assets. Aggregate invested assets, comprising cash and cash equivalents, fixed maturities and alternative investments, were
$4,558.3 million at September 30, 2006 compared to $4,227.8 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of 7.8%. The increase in cash and invested assets resulted principally from $336.1 million in cash flows from operations generated in the
nine months ended September 30, 2006, offset by a decrease of $20.1 million in unrealized appreciation on our fixed maturities portfolio. The decline in unrealized appreciation on our fixed maturities portfolio principally relates to increases
in interest rates. Our fixed maturities portfolio has not suffered any credit events during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Liabilities for property and casualty losses. Property and casualty losses totaled $2,238.5 million at September 30, 2006 compared to $2,006.0 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of 11.6%. The increase in property and
casualty losses was principally attributable to estimated losses associated with premiums earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2006, partially offset by losses paid and net positive development due to the re-estimation of
liabilities on prior year reserves of approximately $30.5 million.

Liabilities for life and annuity benefits. Life and annuity
benefits totaled $886.2 million at September 30, 2006 compared to $854.2 million at December 31, 2005. The increase was principally attributable to one new contract written in the nine months ended September 30, 2006, in addition to
accretion of, and foreign exchange movements on, liabilities.

Losses and benefits recoverable from reinsurers. Losses and benefits
recoverable from reinsurers totaled $509.4 million at September 30, 2006 compared to $453.6 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of 12.3%, principally reflecting losses ceded under our reinsurance and retrocessional agreements,
partially offset by a reduction of recoveries by $15.0 million as a result of the re-estimation of liabilities on prior year reserves that had been ceded under our reinsurance agreements. Grand Central Re, our largest retrocessionaire, accounted for
44.1% of our losses and benefits recoverable at September 30, 2006. In September 2004, Grand Central Re requested that A.M. Best Company withdraw its financial strength rating. Consequently, A.M. Best Company has assigned a financial strength
rating of NR-4 to Grand Central Re. We retain funds from Grand Central Re amounting to approximately 93.4% of its loss recoverable obligations.

The principal component of the remainder of losses recoverable relates to amounts due from reinsurers of our property and casualty insurance risks. The loss recoverable from these reinsurers represent 47.2% of losses
recoverable at September 30, 2006 and all but one of these reinsurers are presently rated A- or above by A.M. Best Company. Losses recoverable from the single reinsurer of our property and casualty risks rated below A-
are less than 4% of total losses recoverable.

Bank loans. In February 2003, Max Re completed a $150.0 million sale of shares of Max
Re Diversified to a third party financial institution. Simultaneous with the sale, Max Re entered into a total return swap with the purchaser of these shares whereby Max Re receives the return earned on the Max Re Diversified shares in exchange for
a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR plus a spread. Max Re Diversified shares owned by Max Re with a fair value of $101.5 million at September 30, 2006 were pledged as collateral to which we are exposed to credit risk. Under GAAP, these
transactions are viewed on a combined basis and are accounted for as a financing transaction, which results in the recording of a $150.0 million bank loan. In February 2005, the parties amended the swap transaction principally to extend the swap
termination date to February 2007, with provisions for earlier termination in the event that we fail to comply with certain covenants.

Shareholders equity. Our shareholders equity increased to $1,294.5 million at September 30, 2006 from $1,185.7 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of 9.2%, principally reflecting net income of $121.5
million partially offset by a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income of $16.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Liquidity. We generated $325.6 million of cash from operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $352.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The two
principal factors impacting our operating cash flow are premium collections and timing of loss and benefit payments. We write principally casualty business in the property and casualty reinsurance segment and the property and casualty insurance
segment. The casualty business we generally write has a long claim-tail and it is expected that we will generate significant operating cash flow as we build loss and benefit reserves on our balance sheet. As we continue to diversify into property
and property catastrophe business, which

generally has a short claim-tail, and as losses are incurred, we expect to see changes in our operating cash flow levels. We believe that our loss and
benefit reserves currently have an average duration of approximately five years and we expect to see increases in the amount of expected loss payments in future periods. We do not expect loss payments to exceed premiums written and collected and net
investment income, and therefore expect to have continued positive cash flow. However, actual premiums written and collected, net investment income, and losses and benefits paid in any period could vary from our expectations and could have a
meaningful effect on operating cash flow.

While we tailor our fixed maturities portfolio to expected loss and benefit payments, increased
loss amounts or settlement of losses and benefits earlier than anticipated can result in greater cash needs. We maintain a meaningful working cash balance (typically greater than $100.0 million), have generated positive cash flow from operations in
each of our six years of operating history and can access our credit facility described in Note 8 of our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. We believe that we currently maintain sufficient liquidity to cover existing requirements
and provide for contingent liquidity. Nonetheless, it is possible that significant deviations in expected loss and benefit payments can occur, potentially requiring us to liquidate a portion of our fixed maturities portfolio at a gain or loss.

As a holding company, Max Re Capitals principal assets are its investments in the common shares of its principal operating
subsidiary, Max Re, and its other subsidiaries. Max Re Capitals principal source of funds is from interest income on cash balances and cash dividends from its subsidiaries, including Max Re. The payment of dividends is limited under Bermuda
insurance laws. In particular, Max Re may not declare or pay any dividends if it is in breach of its minimum solvency or liquidity levels under Bermuda law or if the declaration or payment of the dividends would cause it to fail to meet the minimum
solvency or liquidity levels under Bermuda law. At September 30, 2006, Max Re, which is required to have approximately $275.0 million in statutory capital and surplus in order to pay dividends, had approximately $1,155.0 million in statutory
capital and surplus.

In the ordinary course of business, we are required to provide letters of credit or other regulatory approved
security to certain of our clients to meet contractual and regulatory requirements. We have three credit facilities as of September 30, 2006 providing an aggregate of $520.0 million of letter of credit capacity. Each of our credit facilities
requires that we comply with certain substantially similar covenants, including a minimum consolidated tangible net worth, a minimum insurer financial strength rating and restrictions on the payment of dividends. We were in compliance with all the
covenants of each of our credit facilities at September 30, 2006.

Capital resources. At September 30, 2006, our capital
structure consisted of common equity. Total capitalization amounted to $1,294.5 million as compared to $1,185.7 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of 9.2%. We have flexibility with respect to capitalization as a result of our access to
the debt and equity markets.

Max Re Capitals Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.05 per share on each of February 10,
2006 and April 28, 2006 and $0.07 per share on July 28, 2006, payable to shareholders of record on February 24, 2006, May 12, 2006 and August 11, 2006, respectively. Continuation of cash dividends in the future will be
at the discretion of the board of directors and will be dependent upon our results of operations and cash flows, and our financial position and capital requirements, general business conditions, legal, tax, regulatory and any contractual
restrictions on the payment of dividends and other factors the board of directors deems relevant. On October 26, 2006, Max Re Capitals board of directors declared a dividend of $0.07 per share to be paid on November 30, 2006 to
shareholders of record on November 9, 2006.

We have been assigned an insurer financial strength rating of A- (Excellent)
by A.M. Best Company, Inc. and an insurer financial strength rating of A (Strong) by Fitch, Inc. These ratings reflect each rating agencys opinion of our financial strength, operating performance and ability to meet obligations. If
an independent rating agency downgrades or withdraws any of our ratings, we could be severely limited or prevented from writing any new insurance or reinsurance contracts, which would significantly and negatively affect our business. Subsequent to
our October 29, 2006 announcement related to the further restatement of our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002 and 2001, as discussed more fully in our Form 10-K/A (Amendment
No. 2) filed November 13, 2006, and the resignation of our Chief Executive Officer, our ratings have been affirmed by A.M. Best Company, Inc. and our A (Strong) insurer financial strength rating was placed on rating watch
negative by Fitch, Inc. As a result, we maintain an insurer financial strength rating of A- (Excellent) by A.M. Best Company, Inc. and an insurer financial strength rating of A (Strong) by Fitch, Inc. as at the date of
this filing. Insurer financial strength ratings are based upon factors relevant to policyholders and are not directed toward the protection of investors.

No off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured
finance or variable interest entities that would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

The reserves for losses and benefits together with deposit liabilities represent managements
estimate of the ultimate cost of settling losses, benefits and deposit liabilities. As more fully discussed in our Critical Accounting PoliciesLosses and Benefits in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the
year ended December 31, 2005, the estimation of losses and benefits is based on various complex and subjective judgments. Actual losses and benefits paid may differ, perhaps significantly, from the reserve estimates reflected in our financial
statements. Similarly, the timing of payment of our estimated losses and benefits is not fixed and there may be significant changes in actual payment activity. The assumptions used in estimating the likely payments due by period are based on our
historical claims payment experience and industry payment patterns, but due to the inherent uncertainty in the process of estimating the timing of such payments, there is a risk that the amounts paid in any such period can be significantly different
than the amounts disclosed above.

The amounts in this table represent our gross estimates of known liabilities as of September 30,
2006 and do not include any allowance for claims for future events within the time period specified. Accordingly, it is highly likely that the total amounts paid out in the time periods shown will be greater than that indicated in the table.

Furthermore, life and annuity benefits recorded in the financial statements at September 30, 2006 are computed on a discounted basis,
whereas the expected payments by period in the table above are the estimated payments at a future time and do not reflect a discount of the amount payable.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Financial Accounting Standard No. 157Fair Value Measurements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 157Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring the
fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, this Statement
does not require any new fair value measurements, but the application of this Statement to existing accounting pronouncements will change current practice. SFAS 157 was issued in order to remove inconsistencies in fair value measurements between
various accounting pronouncements. The effective date for SFAS 157 is for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect of the Statement on our consolidated
financial statements.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We engage in an investment strategy
that combines a fixed maturities investment portfolio and an alternative investment portfolio that employ strategies to manage investment risk. We attempt to maintain adequate liquidity in our cash and fixed maturities investment portfolio to fund
operations, pay reinsurance and insurance liabilities and claims and provide funding for unexpected events. We seek to manage our credit risk through industry and issuer diversification, and interest rate risk by monitoring the duration and
structure of our investment portfolio relative to the duration and structure of our liability portfolio. We are exposed to potential loss from various market risks, primarily changes in interest rates, credit spreads and equity prices. Accordingly,
earnings would be affected by these changes. We manage our market risk based on Board-approved investment policies. With respect to our fixed maturities investment portfolio, our risk management strategy and investment policy is to invest in debt
instruments of investment grade issuers and to limit the amount of credit exposure with respect to particular ratings categories and any one issuer. We select investments with characteristics such as duration, yield, currency and liquidity that are
tailored to the cash flow characteristics of our property and casualty and life and annuity liabilities.

##### Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2006, all securities held in our fixed maturities portfolio were rated BBB-/Baa3
or above. Our current policy is not to hold securities rated lower than BBB-/Baa3 in our fixed maturities investment portfolio. At September 30, 2006, the impact on the fixed maturities investment portfolio from an immediate 100 basis point
increase in market interest rates would have resulted in an estimated decrease in market value of 3.99%, or approximately $117.6 million, and the impact on the fixed maturities investment portfolio from an immediate 100 basis point decrease in
market interest rates would have resulted in an estimated increase in market value of 5.26%, or approximately $155.1 million.

With respect
to our alternative investment portfolio, although our fund of funds advisor is contractually obligated to abide by our investment guidelines, we do not directly control the allocation of our assets to strategies or underlying funds, nor do we
control the manner in which they are invested by our fund managers. However, we consistently and systematically monitor the strategies and funds in which we are invested, and we believe our overall risk is limited as a result of our selected
strategies low volatility and low correlation to the bond market, the stock market and each other. At September 30, 2006, the estimated impact on the alternative investment portfolio from an immediate 100 basis point increase in market
interest rates would have resulted in an estimated decrease in market value of 1.95%, or approximately $25.0 million, and the impact on the alternative investment portfolio from an immediate 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would
have resulted in an estimated increase in market value of 1.95%, or approximately $25.0 million.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Part A - Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Exchange
Act), which we refer to as disclosure controls, are controls and procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this quarterly report,
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of
any control system. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are met. No evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

As of September 30, 2006, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision
and with the participation of our companys management, including the current Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls. Based upon that evaluation, the
current Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls were effective to ensure that material information relating to our company is made known to management, including the
current Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, particularly during the period when our periodic reports are being prepared.

Part B - Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective
internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our companys internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any control system. A control system, no matter how well conceived and
operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are met. No evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.

On October 26, 2006, we determined that we needed to restate our previously issued financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005
through 2001. As a result of such financial statement restatement, management reassessed our internal control over financial reporting using the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission Internal Control-Integrated Framework
criteria and identified the following control deficiency:



| |  |  | We did not maintain effective controls to identify potential extra contractual agreements, including oral agreements, related to our retrocessional contracts purchased to allow for
an appropriate determination of risk transfer.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

This control deficiency resulted in the restatement of our financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2005 through 2001. In connection with managements reassessment of internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2005 management determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness
within the meaning of Auditing Standards No. 2 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). As a result, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as at December 31, 2005.

Management evaluated whether there was a change in our companys internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended
September 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the companys internal control over financial reporting. Based on our evaluation, we believe that there was no such change during the three
months ended September 30, 2006. However, as described in our filing on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) filed on November 13, 2006, since September 30, 2006, we have implemented controls to remediate the deficiency identified
above. Specifically we have:



| |  |  | Established guidelines that require senior management certification that there are no extra contractual agreements, including oral agreements, related to retrocessional contracts
purchased.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that, as of the date of this filing, we have taken steps that remediate the control deficiencies in
our disclosure controls and our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

We are, from time to time, a party to litigation and/or arbitration that arises
in the normal course of our business operations. We are also subject to other potential litigation, disputes, and regulatory or governmental inquiries.

SEC Inquiry. As previously disclosed, in connection with an internal review of three finite property and casualty retrocessional contracts, we voluntarily contacted the SEC in March 2006. Subsequently, in
connection with the SECs industry-wide investigation into non-traditional, or loss mitigation, (re)insurance products, we received a subpoena for certain information and interviews with a number of our employees relating to our business
practice review and our determination to restate our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002 and 2001. We will continue to cooperate fully with the SEC. We cannot predict the ultimate impact, if any,
this investigation may have on our business or operations. It is possible that the SEC investigation may result in penalties and relief, including without limitation injunctive relief and/or civil monetary penalties, or require remediation. The
nature of the relief or remedies or remediation that the SEC may seek cannot be predicted at this time. If an enforcement action is brought by the SEC, it could have a material adverse effect on us.

Other Actions.On April 4, 2006, a complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia on behalf of New
Cingular Wireless Headquarters LLC and 16 other corporations against approximately 100 insurance entity defendants, including insurance brokers Marsh Inc. and Aon, and including Max Re. On October 16, 2006, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict
Litigation transferred the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey for pretrial proceedings on a consolidated basis with other lawsuits raising similar claims. The complaint alleges that the defendant insurance companies and
insurance brokers conspired to manipulate bidding practices for insurance policies in certain insurance lines and failed to disclose certain commission arrangements. The named plaintiffs have asserted statutory claims under the Sherman Act, the
Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, as well as common law claims alleging breach of fiduciary duty, inducement to breach fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and fraud. We intend to defend ourselves vigorously in this suit but cannot at
this time predict the outcome of the matters described above or estimate the potential costs related to defending the action. No liability has been established in our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the period ended
September 30, 2006.

While any proceeding contains an element of uncertainty, we currently do not believe that the ultimate outcome of
all outstanding litigation, arbitrations and inquiries will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, future operating results and/or liquidity, although an adverse response from the SEC or adverse resolution of a
number of these items could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in a particular fiscal quarter or year.

Risk Factors

The Risk Factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2005 have not materially changed other than the Risk Factor titled If we lose or are unable to retain our senior management and other key personnel, or if we are unable to renew the Bermudian work permits of any members
of our senior management or other key personnel, our ability to implement our business strategy could be delayed or hindered, which, in turn, could significantly and negatively affect our business. In connection with the appointment of W.
