(1) The reported securities are owned directly by Arch Reinsurance Ltd., a Bermuda company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Arch Capital Group Ltd., a Bermuda company.
(2) The reported securities are owned by Arch Capital Group Ltd.'s wholly owned subsidiary, Gulf Reinsurance Limited, a Dubai International Financial Centre company.
(3) The warrants are exercisable at any time following the listing of the issuer's common shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.
(4) The exercise price of the warrants is determined on the date of exercise so that, if all such warrants then outstanding were exercised in full on such exercise date in respect of the common shares then subject to such warrants, initial holders who purchased common shares in the issuer's original private placement would achieve a 15% target return (including dilution from such warrants and excluding dilution from start-up expenses related to the issuer's formation and original private placement or any warrants the issuer may issue in the future) from March 25, 2014, the initial closing of the issuer's original private placement, through the date of such exercise, based on the $40.00 initial purchase price per common share paid by such initial holders and the market value of the common shares that would be necessary for the initial holders to achieve such target return if the initial holders disposed of their common shares on the date of such exercise.
