Where any information and statistics are quoted from any external source, such information or statistics should not be interpreted as
having been adopted or endorsed by the Company as being accurate. Presentations of the company usually contain supplemental
financial measures (e.g., return on investment, return on equity, gross/net combined ratios, solvency ratios) which the Company
believes to be useful performance measures but which are not recognised as measures under International Financial Reporting
Standards, as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS"). Therefore, such measures should be viewed as supplemental to, but not as
substitute for, balance sheet, statement of income or cash flow statement data determined in accordance with IFRS. Since not all
companies define such measures in the same way, the respective measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used
by other companies. This presentation is dated as of 7 October 2014. Neither the delivery of this presentation nor any further
discussions of the Company with any of the recipients shall, under any circumstances, create any implication that there has been no
change in the affairs of the Company since such date. This material is being delivered in conjunction with an oral presentation by the
