Cautionary note regarding forward-looking information

This financial supplement may include forward-looking statements that reflect Alterra’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Statements that include the words “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “project,” “anticipate,” “will,” “may” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and you should not place undue reliance on any such statements.

These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) the adequacy of loss reserves and the need to adjust such reserves as claims develop over time; (2) the failure of any of the loss limitation methods employed; (3) the effect of cyclical trends, including with respect to demand and pricing in the insurance and reinsurance markets; (4) changes in general economic conditions, including changes in capital and credit markets; (5) any lowering or loss of financial ratings; (6) the occurrence of natural or man-made catastrophic events with a frequency or severity exceeding expectations; (7) actions by competitors, including consolidation; (8) the effects of emerging claims and coverage issues; (9) the loss of business provided to Alterra by its major brokers; (10) the effect on Alterra’s investment portfolio of changing financial market conditions including inflation, interest rates, liquidity and other factors; (11) tax and regulatory changes and conditions; (12) retention of key personnel; and (13) the integration of new business ventures Alterra may enter into; as well as management’s response to any of the aforementioned factors.

The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included herein and elsewhere, including the Risk Factors included in Alterra’s most recent reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and other documents on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statements made in this financial supplement are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by Alterra will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, Alterra or its business or operations.

In presenting the Company’s results, management has included and discussed net operating income, net operating income per share, net operating income per diluted share, annualized net operating return on average shareholders’ equity, tangible book value per share and diluted tangible book value per share. These measures are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, which may be defined differently by other companies, allow for a more complete understanding of the Company’s business. These measures, however, should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The reconciliation of such measures to their respective most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures is presented in the attached financial information in accordance with Regulation G.

Net operating income is defined as net income excluding after-tax net realized and unrealized gains or losses on non- hedge fund investments (this includes net realized and unrealized gains or losses on trading securities, net realized gains or losses on available for sale securities, net impairment losses recognized in earnings, changes in fair value of investment derivatives, catastrophe bonds, structured deposits and earnings from equity method investments), after-tax net foreign exchange gains or losses and after-tax merger and acquisition expenses. Net operating income per share and per diluted share is defined as the net operating income divided by the weighted average common shares or weighted average diluted common shares, respectively. We believe that this non-GAAP measure provides a better indication of management performance as realized and unrealized gains and losses on fixed maturities may fluctuate from period to period and foreign exchange gains and losses are typically outside the control of management. Merger and acquisition expenses are not indicative of expenses fundamental to the business and may fluctuate from period to period.

Annualized net operating return on average shareholders’ equity is defined as annualized net operating income divided by the average of the beginning and ending shareholders’ equity. Tangible book value is defined as shareholders’ equity excluding goodwill and intangible assets. Tangible book value per share and diluted tangible book value per share is defined as the tangible book value divided by the common shares outstanding or diluted common shares outstanding, respectively. These non-GAAP measures allow management to assess how the Company has performed in terms of wealth generated for its shareholders.

Effective January 1, 2011, Alterra redefined its Insurance and U.S. Specialty segments based on changes to its internal reporting structure.

Insurance business underwritten by Alterra Insurance USA Inc., which was previously reported within the U.S. Specialty segment, has been reclassified to the Insurance segment. Alterra Insurance USA Inc. is a managing general underwriter for Alterra Excess & Surplus Insurance Company and Alterra America Insurance Company, as well as various third party insurance companies, and is Alterra’s principal insurance underwriting platform for retail distribution in the United States. Segment disclosures for comparative periods have been restated to reflect this reclassification.
