By letter received on July 31, 2015, Mr. Christopher L.

(“Montpelier”) and Endurance Specialty Holdings Ltd (“Endurance”) and his related resignations, also dated July 31, 2015, from all of his former executive positions and directorships with Montpelier and its subsidiaries.

Mr. Harris has served as Chairman and a member of the Board since 2013.

The Company expects to promptly appoint a new director to fill the vacancy on the Board created by Mr. Harris’ resignation and name a new Chairman of the Board.  The Company will file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission promptly following the completion of these expected actions.
