Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements about the future financial condition, results of operations and operating activities of the Company (together with its subsidiaries, “Sirius Group”). Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “target,” “continue,” “could,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “should,” “would,” “seeks,” “likely” and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the management of the Company and speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The general factors that could cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied include, without limitation, the following:

•the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent to the consummation of the proposed merger transaction involving the Company, TPRE and Merger Sub, including, without limitation, the receipt of regulatory approvals (including approvals, authorizations and clearance by antitrust authorities and insurance regulators necessary to complete such proposed merger transaction) on the terms desired or anticipated (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of such proposed merger transaction);

•unanticipated difficulties or expenditures relating to such proposed merger transaction;

•risks relating to the value of TPRE’s common shares to be issued in such proposed merger transaction;

•unanticipated negative reactions of rating agencies in response to such proposed merger transaction;

•disruptions of the Company’s and TPRE’s current plans, operations and relationships with third persons caused by the announcement and pendency of such proposed merger transaction, including, without limitation, the ability of the combined company to hire and retain any personnel;

•legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company and TPRE following announcement of such proposed merger transaction; and

•those factors listed in annual, quarterly and periodic reports filed by the Company and TPRE with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), whether or not related to such proposed merger transaction.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions made by the management of the Company prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, Sirius Group undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
