NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

These interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OneBeacon Insurance Group, Ltd. (the "Company" or the "Registrant") and its subsidiaries (collectively, "OneBeacon") and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company is an exempted Bermuda limited liability company with U.S.-based underwriting operating companies that are property and casualty insurance writers and a Bermuda-based reinsurance company, Split Rock Insurance, Ltd. ("Split Rock"). OneBeacon offers a wide range of specialty insurance products and services primarily through independent agencies, regional and national brokers, wholesalers and managing general agencies.

OneBeacon is 75.7% owned by White Mountains Insurance Group, Ltd. ("White Mountains"), a holding company whose businesses provide property and casualty insurance, reinsurance and certain other products. The Company's headquarters are located at 26 Reid Street, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda. The Company's U.S. corporate headquarters are located at 605 North Highway 169, Plymouth, Minnesota 55441 and its registered office is located at Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda.

OneBeacon's reportable segments are Specialty Products, Specialty Industries and Investing, Financing and Corporate. The Specialty Products segment is comprised of ten active underwriting operating segments, representing an aggregation based on those that offer distinct products and tailored coverages and services to a broad customer base across the United States. The Specialty Industries segment is comprised of six active underwriting operating segments, representing an aggregation based on those that focus on solving the unique needs of a particular customer or industry group. The Investing, Financing and Corporate segment includes the investing and financing activities for OneBeacon on a consolidated basis, and certain other activities conducted through the Company and its intermediate holding company subsidiaries. See Note 6—"Segment Information" for changes to underwriting operating and reportable segments during the three months ended March 31, 2017. Prior periods have been restated to conform to the current presentation of segment information.

All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These interim financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary by management to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of OneBeacon. These interim financial statements may not be indicative of financial results for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Refer to the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a complete discussion regarding OneBeacon’s significant accounting policies. Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Derivatives

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, OneBeacon began purchasing foreign currency forward contracts in order to provide an economic hedge against fluctuations in certain foreign-denominated fixed maturity securities that were purchased during the same time period. These foreign currency forward contracts are considered derivative financial instrument and they have not been designated or accounted for under hedge accounting. OneBeacon recognizes these derivatives as either assets or liabilities, measured at fair value, in the consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, or realized gains and losses from the sale or maturity of the forward contracts, are recognized as components of investment results in current period pre-tax income.

Recently Adopted Changes in Accounting Principles

Stock Compensation

Effective January 1, 2017, OneBeacon adopted ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASC 718) which simplifies certain aspects of the accounting for share-based compensation. The new guidance provides an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures by either applying an assumption, as required under existing guidance, or by recognizing forfeitures when they actually occur. At adoption, OneBeacon did not change its accounting policy for forfeitures, which is to apply an assumed forfeiture rate. The new guidance has also changed the threshold for partial cash settlement to settle statutory withholding requirements for equity classified awards, increasing the threshold up to the maximum statutory tax rate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In addition, the new guidance changed the treatment for excess tax benefits which arise from the difference between the deduction for tax purposes and the compensation costs recognized for financial reporting. Previously, excess tax benefits were recognized through other comprehensive income. Under the new guidance, OneBeacon will recognize excess tax benefits or expense in current period earnings.

Short-Duration Contracts

Effective December 31, 2016, OneBeacon adopted ASU 2015-09, Disclosures about Short Duration Contracts (ASC 944) which requires expanded footnote disclosures about loss and loss adjustment expense ("LAE") reserves. Upon adoption, OneBeacon modified its disclosures in the Company's 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K to include loss development tables on a disaggregated basis by accident year and a reconciliation of loss development data to the loss and LAE reserves reflected on the balance sheet. The footnote disclosures were also expanded to include information about claim frequency data, including a description of how the claims frequency data is measured. Prior year disclosures were modified to conform to the new disclosures. There was no impact upon adoption to the financial statements contained herein as OneBeacon was already disclosing the new required loss rollforward. See Note 2 - "Unpaid Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense (LAE) Reserves".

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Cash Flow Statement

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (ASC 230), which addresses the classification and presentation of certain items, including debt prepayment and extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination and distributions received from equity method investees, for which there was diversity in practice.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash (ASC230). Under current guidance, restricted amounts of cash or cash equivalents are excluded from the cash flow statement. The new guidance requires restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included in the reconciliation of beginning and end-of-period amounts presented on the statement of cash flows. In addition, the new guidance requires a description of the nature of the changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents during the periods presented.

The updated guidance in ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 are both effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. OneBeacon does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated statement of cash flows.

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASC 326), which establishes new guidance for the recognition of credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost. The new ASU, which applies to financial assets that have the contractual right to receive cash requires reporting entities to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of a credit exposure using historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the financial asset. The types of assets included in the scope of the new guidance includes premium receivables, reinsurance recoverables, and loans. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2020, including interim periods. OneBeacon measures financial assets at fair value with changes therein recognized in current period earnings and accordingly, does not expect adoption to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842). The new guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for both operating and financing leases, with the exception of leases with an original term of 12 months or less. Under existing guidance recognition of lease assets and liabilities is not required for operating leases. The lease assets and liabilities to be recognized are both measured initially based on the present value of the lease payments. Under the new guidance, a sale-leaseback transaction must meet the recognition criteria under ASC 606, Revenues in order to be accounted for as a sale. The new guidance is effective for OneBeacon for years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods therein. OneBeacon is evaluating the expected impact of this new guidance and available adoption methods.

Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASC 825-10). The new ASU modifies the guidance for financial instruments, including investments in equity securities. Under the new guidance, all equity securities with readily determinable fair values are required to be measured at

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

fair value with changes therein recognized through current period earnings. In addition, the new ASU requires a qualitative assessment for equity securities without readily determinable fair values to identify impairment, and for impaired equity securities to be measured at fair value. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. OneBeacon measures its portfolio of investment securities at fair value with changes therein recognized through current period earnings accordingly, does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-01 to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), which modifies the guidance for revenue recognition. Under ASU 2014-09, revenue is to be recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for goods and services transferred to customers. The new guidance sets forth the steps to be followed to recognized revenue: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Subsequently, the FASB issued additional ASUs clarifying the guidance in and providing implementation guidance for ASU 2014-09. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), which delays the effective date of ASU 2014-09 and all related ASUs to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Most of OneBeacon's revenue from customer relates to insurance contracts, which are excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09, as are investment income and investment gains and losses. However, the new guidance is applicable to some of OneBeacon's revenue streams, including certain fee arrangements as well as commissions and other non-insurance revenues. OneBeacon is evaluating the new guidance, but does not expect ASU 2014-09 to have a significant effect on recognition of OneBeacon's non-insurance revenues from customers.

NOTE 2. Unpaid Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense (LAE) Reserves

Loss and LAE reserve summary

The following table summarizes the loss and LAE reserve activities of OneBeacon's insurance subsidiaries for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:



	Three months ended March 31,
($ in millions)	2017			2016
Gross beginning balance	$	1,365.6		$	1,389.8

Loss and LAE development

Loss and LAE development—2017

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, OneBeacon experienced no net loss and LAE reserve development on prior accident year reserves as unfavorable reserve development, primarily in Healthcare due to an adverse settlement on a single managed care errors and omissions claim, and to a lesser extent, unfavorable development in Programs driven by an auto-related program, was offset by favorable reserve development driven by Technology, Accident & Health, and Entertainment resulting from favorable loss experience.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE 2. Unpaid Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense (LAE) Reserves

Loss and LAE development—2016

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, OneBeacon experienced no net loss and LAE reserve development on prior accident year reserves, as favorable development from several businesses, most notably Accident & Health and Technology was offset by unfavorable development primarily in Healthcare due to large claims and heavy loss activity.

NOTE 3. Reinsurance

In the normal course of business, OneBeacon's insurance subsidiaries seek to limit losses that may arise from catastrophes or other events by reinsuring with third-party reinsurers. OneBeacon remains liable for risks reinsured even if the reinsurer does not honor its obligations under reinsurance contracts.

Reinsurance Treaties

The Company's reinsurance coverage is discussed in Note 4—"Reinsurance" in the Company's 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the Company's reinsurance coverage from that reported in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Reinsurance Recoverables

As of March 31, 2017, OneBeacon had reinsurance recoverables on paid losses of $3.4 million and reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses of $174.7 million. As reinsurance contracts do not relieve OneBeacon of its obligations, collectibility of balances due from reinsurers is important to OneBeacon's financial strength. The following table summarizes A.M. Best Company, Inc. ("A.M. Best") ratings for OneBeacon's reinsurers, excluding industry pools and associations, based upon reinsurance recoverable amounts on paid and unpaid losses and LAE:



	Balance at March 31, 2017		% of total

NOTE 4. Investment Securities

OneBeacon's invested assets are comprised of securities and other investments held for general investment purposes. Refer to the Company's 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a complete discussion.

OneBeacon classifies its portfolio of fixed maturity investments, common equity securities, including exchange traded funds ("ETFs"), and other investments held for general investment purposes, as trading securities. Trading securities are reported at fair value as of the balance sheet date as determined by quoted market prices when available. Realized and changes in unrealized investment gains on trading securities are reported, on a pre-tax basis, in revenues as net realized and change in unrealized investment gains.

Short-term investments consist of interest-bearing money market funds and other securities which, at the time of purchase, mature or become available for use within one year. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

Other investments consist primarily of surplus notes, hedge funds and private equity funds. Surplus notes provided in conjunction with the financing of the sale of the run-off business are measured at estimated fair value based on a discounted expected cash flow model, with changes in fair value reported in total revenues as net realized and change in unrealized investment gains. OneBeacon measures its investments in hedge funds and private equity funds at fair value with changes therein reported in total revenues as net realized and change in unrealized investment gains. Other investments also include an investment in a community reinvestment vehicle which is accounted for at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in total revenues as net realized and change in unrealized investment gains, a tax advantaged federal affordable housing development

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company held unrestricted collateral from its customers, primarily relating to its surety business, of $148.7 million and $153.0 million, respectively, which is included in cash and invested assets. The obligation to return these funds is classified as funds held under insurance contracts in the consolidated balance sheets.

Fair value measurements

Fair value measurements are categorized into a hierarchy that distinguishes between inputs based on market data from independent sources ("observable inputs") and a reporting entity's internal assumptions based upon the best information available when external market data is limited or unavailable ("unobservable inputs"). Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities have the highest priority ("Level 1"), followed by observable inputs other than quoted prices, including prices for similar but not identical assets or liabilities ("Level 2") with unobservable inputs, including the reporting entity's estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use, having the lowest priority ("Level 3"). As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, approximately 93% and 95%, respectively, of the investment portfolio recorded at fair value was priced based upon observable inputs.

Investments valued using Level 1 inputs include fixed maturity investments, primarily investments in U.S. Treasuries, common equity securities and short-term investments, which include U.S. Treasury Bills. Investments valued using Level 2 inputs are comprised primarily of fixed maturity investments, which have been disaggregated into classes, including debt securities issued by corporations, municipal obligations, mortgage and asset-backed securities, foreign government obligations and preferred stocks. Certain ETFs that track U.S. stock indices such as the S&P 500 but are traded on foreign exchanges are also considered Level 2 measurements, as management values such investments using the fund's published net asset value ("NAV") to account for the difference in market close times. Fair value estimates for investments that trade infrequently and have few or no observable market prices are classified as Level 3 measurements. Level 3 fair value estimates based upon unobservable inputs include OneBeacon's investments in surplus notes and certain fixed maturity investments and common equity securities where quoted market prices are unavailable or are not considered reasonable. OneBeacon determines when transfers between levels have occurred as of the beginning of the period.

OneBeacon uses brokers and outside pricing services to assist in determining fair values. For investments in active markets, OneBeacon uses the quoted market prices provided by outside pricing services to determine fair value. The outside pricing services used by OneBeacon have indicated that if no observable inputs are available for the security, they will not provide a price. In such circumstances, where quoted market prices are unavailable or are not considered reasonable, OneBeacon estimates the fair value using industry standard pricing methodologies and observable inputs such as benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers, prepayment speeds, reference data including research publications and other relevant inputs. Given that many fixed maturity investments do not trade on a daily basis, the outside pricing services evaluate a wide range of fixed maturity investments by regularly drawing parallels from recent trades and quotes of comparable securities with similar features. The characteristics used to identify comparable fixed maturity investments vary by asset type and take into account market convention.

OneBeacon's process to assess the reasonableness of the market prices obtained from the outside pricing sources covers substantially all of its fixed maturity investments and includes, but is not limited to, the evaluation of pricing methodologies and a review of the pricing services' quality control processes and procedures on at least an annual basis, comparison of our invested asset market prices to prices obtained from different independent pricing vendors on at least a semi-annual basis, monthly analytical reviews of certain prices and review of the underlying assumptions utilized by our pricing services for selected measurements on an ad hoc basis throughout the year. OneBeacon also performs back-testing of selected sales activity to determine whether there are any significant differences between the market price used to value the security prior to sale and the actual sale price on an ad-hoc basis throughout the year. Prices provided by the pricing services that vary by more than 5% and $1.0 million from the expected price based on these procedures are considered outliers. Also considered outliers are prices that have not changed from period to period and prices that have trended unusually compared to market conditions. In

NOTE 4. Investment Securities

circumstances where the results of OneBeacon's review process do not appear to support the market price provided by the pricing services, OneBeacon challenges the price. If OneBeacon cannot gain satisfactory evidence to support the challenged price, it relies upon its own pricing methodologies to estimate the fair value of the security in question.

The valuation process above is generally applicable to all of OneBeacon’s fixed maturity investments. The techniques and inputs specific to asset classes within OneBeacon's fixed maturity investments for Level 2 securities that use observable inputs are as follows:

Debt securities issued by corporations: The fair value of debt securities issued by corporations is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses information from market sources and integrates relative credit information, observed market movements, and sector news. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data including sector, coupon, credit quality ratings, duration, credit enhancements, early redemption features and market research publications.

Municipal obligations: The fair value of municipal obligations is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses information from market makers, broker-dealers, buy-side firms, and analysts along with general market information. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, issuer financial statements, material event notices and new issue data, as well as broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data including type, coupon, credit quality ratings, duration, credit enhancements, geographic location and market research publications.

Mortgage and asset-backed securities: The fair value of mortgage and asset-backed securities is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses information from market sources and leveraging similar securities. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, underlying tranche cash flow data, collateral performance, plus new issue data, as well as broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data including issuer, vintage, loan type, collateral attributes, prepayment speeds, default rates, recovery rates, cash flow stress testing, credit quality ratings and market research publications.

Foreign government obligations: The fair value of foreign government obligations is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that uses feeds from data sources in each respective country, including active market makers and inter-dealer brokers. Key inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, local exchange prices, foreign exchange rates and reference data including coupon, credit quality ratings, duration and market research publications.

Preferred stocks: The fair value of preferred stocks is determined from a pricing evaluation technique that calculates the appropriate spread over a comparable security for each issue. Key inputs include exchange prices (underlying and common stock of same issuer), benchmark yields, reported trades, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data including sector, coupon, credit quality ratings, duration, credit enhancements, early redemption features and market research publications.

Level 3 valuations are generated from techniques that use assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect OneBeacon's assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the investment. Generally, certain securities may start out as Level 3 when they are originally issued but as observable inputs become available in the market, they may be reclassified to Level 2.

The fair value of the surplus notes is determined based on a discounted expected cash flow model using information as of the measurement date, and is classified as a Level 3 measurement. OneBeacon’s other investments also include an investment in a community reinvestment vehicle and a foreign currency forward contract, which are accounted for at fair value, and a tax advantaged federal affordable housing development fund, which is accounted for under the proportional amortization method.

The fair values of OneBeacon's investments in hedge funds and private equity funds have been classified as NAV as prescribed by ASU 2015-07. OneBeacon employs a number of procedures to assess the reasonableness of the NAV reported by the fund's manager, including obtaining and reviewing periodic and audited financial statements and discussing each fund’s pricing with the fund manager throughout the year. In the event OneBeacon believes that its estimate of NAV differs from that reported by the fund due to illiquidity or other factors, OneBeacon will adjust the fund's reported NAV to more appropriately represent the fair value of its interest in the investment. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, OneBeacon recorded negative adjustments of $1.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively, to the reported NAV of certain investments in hedge funds and private equity funds.

NOTE 4. Investment Securities

The following tables summarize the Company's fair value measurements for investments as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 by level. The major security types were based on the legal form of the securities. OneBeacon has disaggregated its fixed maturity investments based on the issuing entity type, which impacts credit quality, with debt securities issued by U.S. government entities carrying minimal credit risk, while the credit and other risks associated with other issuers, such as corporations, foreign governments, municipalities or entities issuing asset-backed securities vary depending on the nature of the issuing entity type. OneBeacon further disaggregates debt securities issued by corporations and common equity securities by industry sector because investors often reference commonly used benchmarks and their subsectors to monitor risk and performance. Accordingly, OneBeacon has further disaggregated these asset classes into subclasses based on the similar sectors and industry classifications the Company uses to evaluate investment risk and performance against commonly used benchmarks, such as the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate and S&P 500 indices.

Stochastic modeling supporting the fair value estimation indicates that the average percentage of discounted payments missed on the seller priority note is roughly equivalent to that of a conventional debt security with a credit rating of ‘B’. The corresponding credit spread, increased by an additional 400 bps and 250 bps as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, to reflect both a liquidity discount for a private debt instrument and regulatory payment approval uncertainty, was added to the treasury rate to determine the discount rate for the seller priority note.


⁽³⁾	As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company has assumed for the purpose of estimating fair value that all accrued but unpaid interest on the seller priority note since the date of issuance is paid in 2020, with regular annual interest payments beginning thereafter. Principal repayments are assumed to begin on a graduated basis in 2030.

Stochastic modeling supporting the fair value estimation indicates that the average percentage of discounted payments missed on the pari passu note is roughly equivalent to that of a conventional debt security with a credit rating of ‘CCC’. The corresponding credit spread, increased by an additional 400 bps and 250 bps as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, to reflect both a liquidity discount for a private debt instrument and regulatory payment approval uncertainty, was added to the treasury rate to determine the discount rate for the seller priority note.

Mortgage and Asset-backed Securities

OneBeacon purchases commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS") and residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS") to maximize its risk adjusted returns in the context of a diversified portfolio. OneBeacon's non-agency CMBS are generally short tenor and structurally senior, with approximately 30 points of subordination on average for fixed rate and floating rate CMBS as of March 31, 2017. In general, subordination represents the percentage of principal loss on the underlying collateral that would have to occur before the security incurs a loss. These collateral losses, instead, are first absorbed by other securities lower in the capital structure. OneBeacon believes this structural protection mitigates the risk of loss tied to refinancing challenges facing the commercial real estate market. As of March 31, 2017, none of the underlying loans of the agency and non-agency CMBS were reported as non-performing.

OneBeacon's non-agency RMBS portfolio is generally of moderate average life, fixed rate, and structurally senior. OneBeacon considers sub-prime mortgage-backed securities to be those that have underlying loan pools that exhibit weak credit characteristics or are issued from dedicated sub-prime shelves or dedicated second-lien shelf registrations (i.e., OneBeacon considers investments backed primarily by second-liens to be sub-prime risks regardless of credit scores or other metrics). OneBeacon did not hold any RMBS categorized as sub-prime as of March 31, 2017.

There are also mortgage-backed securities that OneBeacon categorizes as "non-prime" (also called "Alt A" or "A-") that are backed by collateral that has overall credit quality between prime and sub-prime, as determined based on OneBeacon's review of the characteristics of their underlying mortgage loan pools, such as credit scores and financial ratios. As of March 31, 2017, OneBeacon did not hold any mortgage-backed securities classified as non-prime. OneBeacon's non-agency RMBS portfolio is generally of moderate average life, fixed rate and structurally senior. OneBeacon does not own any collateralized debt obligations, with the exception of $26.9 million of non-agency RMBS resecuritization tranches, each a senior tranche in its own right and each collateralized by a single earlier vintage Super Senior or Senior non-agency RMBS.

NOTE 4. Investment Securities

The largest investment in a single hedge fund or private equity fund was $15.9 million and $15.0 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Surplus Notes

In the fourth quarter of 2014, in conjunction with the Runoff Transaction, OneBeacon provided financing in the form of surplus notes, which had a fair value of $69.6 million and $71.9 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The surplus notes, issued by one of the transferred entities, Bedivere Insurance Company (“Bedivere" or "Issuer”), were in the form of both seller priority and pari passu notes.

The internal valuation model used to estimate the fair value of the surplus notes is based on discounted expected cash flows using information as of the measurement date. The estimated fair value of the surplus notes is sensitive to changes in public debt credit spreads, as well as changes in estimates with respect to other variables including a discount to reflect the private nature of the notes (and the related lack of liquidity), the credit quality of the notes, based on the financial performance of the Issuer relative to expectations, and the timing, amount, and likelihood of interest and principal payments on the notes, which are subject to regulatory approval and therefore may vary from the contractual terms. For the purposes of estimating fair value, the Company has assumed that all accrued but unpaid interest on the seller priority note since the date of issuance is paid in 2020, with regular annual interest payments on both the seller priority note and the pari passu note beginning in 2021, all accrued but unpaid interest on the pari passu note since the date of issuance is paid in 2025 and principal repayments begin on a graduated basis in 2030 for the seller priority note and 2035 for the pari passu note. Although these variables involve considerable judgment, the Company does not currently expect any resulting changes in the estimated value of the surplus notes to be material to its financial position. An interest payment of $2.4 million was received in the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Below is a table illustrating the valuation adjustments taken to arrive at estimated fair value of the surplus notes as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

⁽¹⁾

Represents the value of the surplus notes, at current market yields on comparable publicly traded debt, and assuming issuer is allowed to make principal and interest payments when its financial capacity is available, as measured by statutory capital in excess of a 250% RBC score under the National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ risk-based capital standards for property and casualty companies. The favorable year-to-date change in impact is due principally to the narrowing of non-investment grade credit spreads as well as the time value of money benefit from moving three months closer to modeled cash receipts.

⁽²⁾

Represents anticipated delay in securing regulatory approvals of interest and principal payments to reflect graduated changes in Issuer's statutory surplus. The monetary impact of the anticipated delay is measured based on credit spreads of public securities with roughly equivalent percentages of discounted payments missed. The favorable year-to-date change in impact is driven primarily by the narrowing of non-investment grade credit spreads, which causes the anticipated delay in securing regulatory approval to be less punitive.


⁽³⁾	Represents impact of liquidity spread to account for OneBeacon's sole ownership of the notes, lack of a trading market, and unique nature of the ongoing regulatory approval process. The unfavorable year-to-date change in impact is due largely to an increase in the assumed liquidity spread to 400 basis points at March 31, 2017 from 250 basis points at December 31, 2016.


⁽⁴⁾	The decrease in fair value of the surplus notes during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was driven primarily by an increase in the assumed liquidity spread, partially offset by the narrowing of non-investment grade credit spreads as well as the time value of money benefit generated by moving three months closer to modeled cash receipts.

NOTE 4. Investment Securities

Redemptions of investments in certain hedge funds are subject to restrictions including "lock-up" periods where no redemptions or withdrawals are allowed, restrictions on redemption frequency and advance notice periods for redemptions. Amounts requested for redemptions remain subject to market fluctuations until the redemption effective date, which generally falls at the end of the defined redemption period. As of March 31, 2017, none of OneBeacon's hedge funds were subject to lock-up. The following summarizes the March 31, 2017 fair value of hedge funds subject to restrictions on redemption frequency and advance notice period requirements for investments in active hedge funds:

Certain hedge fund investments are no longer active and are in the process of disposing of their underlying investments. Distributions from such funds are remitted to investors as the fund's underlying investments are liquidated. As of March 31, 2017, OneBeacon's hedge funds in liquidation had a fair value of zero. The actual amount of the final distribution is subject to market fluctuations. The date at which such distributions, if any, will be received is not determinable as of March 31, 2017.

OneBeacon has also submitted redemption requests for certain of its investments in active hedge funds. As of March 31, 2017, redemptions of $2.2 million were outstanding and remain subject to market fluctuations. The date at which such redemptions will be received is not determinable at March 31, 2017. Redemptions are recorded as receivables when the investment is no longer subject to market fluctuations.

Investments in private equity funds are generally subject to lock-up periods during which investors may not request a redemption. Distributions prior to the expected termination date of the fund may be limited to dividends or proceeds arising from the liquidation of the fund's underlying investment. In addition, certain private equity funds provide an option to extend the lock-up period at either the sole discretion of the fund manager or upon agreement between the fund and the investors. As of March 31, 2017, investments in private equity funds were subject to lock-up periods as follows:

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, OneBeacon established a portfolio of investment grade fixed maturity investments denominated in British Pound Sterling ("GBP"). As part of managing exposure to foreign currency risk within that portfolio, the Company entered into a foreign currency forward contract with notional amounts of $62.6 million (GBP 50.0 million) as of March 31, 2017. The contract does not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a hedge.

As of March 31, 2017, the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts, as estimated using OTC quotes for similar instruments, which are classified as Level 2 measurements with the fair value hierarchy, was negative $0.2 million, and was included in other investments. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, change in fair value of negative $0.2 million was included in net realized and change in unrealized investment gains, with no such amount included for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Company's derivative transactions are documented under an International Swaps and Derivatives Association ("ISDA") agreement and are subject to a master netting agreement. In conjunction with the ISDA agreement, no collateral is either pledged or received related to this contract.

2012 Senior Notes

In November 2012, OneBeacon U.S. Holdings, Inc. ("OBH") issued $275.0 million face value of senior unsecured notes ("2012 Senior Notes") through a public offering, at an issue price of 99.9% and received $272.9 million of proceeds. The 2012 Senior Notes bear an annual interest rate of 4.6% payable semi-annually in arrears on May 9 and November 9, until maturity on November 9, 2022, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to the payment of principal and interest by the Company. Taking into effect the amortization of the original issue discount and all underwriting and issuance expenses, the 2012 Senior Notes have an effective yield to maturity of approximately 4.7% per annum.

Credit Facility

On September 29, 2015, the Company and OBH, as co-borrowers and co-guarantors, entered into a revolving credit facility administered by U.S. Bank N.A. and also including BMO Harris Bank N.A., which has a total commitment of $65.0 million and has a maturity date of September 29, 2019 (the "Credit Facility"). As of March 31, 2017, the Credit Facility was undrawn.

Debt Covenants

The 2012 Senior Notes were issued under indentures that contain restrictive covenants which, among other things, limit the ability of the Company, OBH, and their respective subsidiaries to create liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions and limits the ability of the Company and OBH to consolidate, merge or transfer its properties and assets. The indentures do not contain any financial ratios or specified levels of net worth or liquidity to which the Company or OBH must adhere. In addition, a failure by the Company or OBH or their respective subsidiaries to pay principal and interest on covered debt, where such failure results in the acceleration of at least $75.0 million of the principal amount of covered debt, could trigger the acceleration of the 2012 Senior Notes.

The Credit Facility contains various affirmative, negative and financial covenants which OneBeacon considers to be customary for such borrowings, including certain minimum net worth and maximum debt to capitalization standards. These covenants can restrict the Company, OBH and their respective subsidiaries in several ways, including their ability to incur additional indebtedness. An uncured breach of these covenants could result in an event of default under the Credit Facility, which would allow lenders to declare any amounts owed under the Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable.

As of March 31, 2017, OneBeacon was in compliance with all of the covenants under the 2012 Senior Notes and the Credit Facility.

NOTE 6. Segment Information

The Company has sixteen active underwriting operating segments, which are managed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") and are aggregated into two underwriting reportable segments, Specialty Products and Specialty Industries. In addition, the Investing, Financing and Corporate reportable segment includes the investing and financing activities for OneBeacon on a consolidated basis, and certain other activities conducted through the Company and its intermediate holding company subsidiaries.

Invested assets are not allocated to the Specialty Products and Specialty Industries segments since OneBeacon does not manage them by segment. Invested assets, net investment income and net realized and change in unrealized investment gains related to OneBeacon's Specialty Products and Specialty Industries segments are included in the Investing, Financing and Corporate segment since these assets are available for payment of losses and expenses for all segments. Debt and related interest expense also are not allocated to or managed by segment and are also included in the Investing, Financing and Corporate segment.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company completed its transition to reflect certain management changes and a re-segmenting of various business lines within underwriting operating segments. As part of the transition, the Company's executive management, including the CODM, began receiving a new CODM package which reflected an adjusted aggregation of the underwriting operating segments among the existing underwriting reportable segments. The new underwriting operating segments are also consistent with how the Company began externally branding the related insurance products during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The following represents a summary of the changes made:

Media liability: The media liability line, which was previously included in the Other Professional Lines underwriting operating segment within Specialty Products, was moved into the Entertainment underwriting operating segment within Specialty Industries.

Medical excess: The medical excess line, which was previously included in the Healthcare underwriting operating segment within Specialty Products, was moved into the Accident underwriting operating segment which, in turn, has been renamed "Accident and Health" within Specialty Industries.

Architects and Engineers: The Architects and Engineers line, which was previously included in the Other Professional Lines underwriting operating segment within Specialty Products, has been separately broken out such that it is now a separate underwriting operating segment.

Other Professional Lines: The Other Professional Lines former underwriting operating segment is no longer considered an underwriting operating segment.

Other than these changes, there have been no material changes to the Company's determination of reportable segments from that reported in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 7. Retirement Plans

OneBeacon previously sponsored the OneBeacon qualified pension plan (the "Qualified Plan"). During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Qualified Plan finalized its termination by purchasing group annuity contracts from the Principal Financial Group ("Principal"), and making lump sum distributions to Qualified Plan participants electing such payments, which eliminated the remaining Qualified Plan liability, and also ceased administratively paying benefits. As a result of these transactions, the Company recognized a pre-tax pension settlement charge of $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016, and no longer has a projected benefit obligation with respect to the Qualified Plan. The Company transferred $47.1 million of excess invested assets from the Qualified Plan into the trust supporting the OneBeacon 401(k) Savings and Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("KSOP"), which is the Qualified Replacement Plan ("QRP") with $13.8 million of excess invested assets remaining in the Qualified Plan trust as of March 31, 2017 in order to wind-down potential post-termination obligations of that plan, as approved by way of a March 2016 private letter ruling from the IRS. The invested assets related to both the legacy Qualified Plan trust and the QRP are included in other assets and are accounted for at fair value with related income recognized in net other revenues.

OneBeacon continues to sponsor a non-qualified, non-contributory, defined benefit pension plan ("Non-qualified Plan") covering certain employees who were employed as of December 31, 2001 and former employees who had met the eligibility requirements, as well as retirees. The Non-qualified Plan was frozen and curtailed in 2002 resulting in the pension benefit obligation being equal to the accumulated benefit obligation. The benefits are based primarily on years of service and employees’ compensation through December 31, 2002. OneBeacon’s funding policy is generally to contribute amounts to satisfy actual disbursements for the calendar year.

The components of net periodic benefit cost for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 for the Non-qualified Plan and Qualified Plan were as follows:

OneBeacon anticipates contributing $2.1 million to the Non-qualified Plan in 2017, for which OneBeacon has assets held in a rabbi trust. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company contributed $0.5 million to the Non-qualified Plan.

OneBeacon sponsors an employee savings plan (defined contribution plan) covering the majority of employees. The contributory plan historically provided qualifying employees with matching contributions of 50% of the first 6% of salary (subject to federal limits on allowable contributions in a given year). During mid-2016, the matching contribution of the contributory plan was replaced with a fixed 3% of salary employer contribution (subject to federal limits on allowable contributions in a given year). Total expense for the contribution was $0.9 million and $0.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The employee savings plan also includes an employee stock ownership component. See Note 8—"Employee Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plans."

OneBeacon had a post-employment benefit liability related to disability and health benefits available to former employees that are no longer employed by the Company of $2.8 million and $3.1 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

OneBeacon also had a post-employment benefit liability related to death benefits to beneficiaries of former executives that are no longer employed by the Company of $12.7 million and $12.8 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. OneBeacon has set aside funds to satisfy its obligation in a rabbi trust of $29.8 million and $29.3 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

NOTE 8. Employee Share-Based Incentive Compensation Plans

OneBeacon's share-based compensation plans include performance shares, restricted shares and restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which are designed to maximize shareholder value over long periods of time by aligning the financial interests of its management with those of its owners. Performance shares are payable only upon achievement of pre-defined business goals and are valued based on the market value of OneBeacon's common shares at the time awards are earned. Performance shares and restricted stock units are typically paid in cash, though, in some instances, they may be paid in common shares or may be deferred in accordance with the terms of OneBeacon's deferred compensation plan. Beginning with the 2017-2019 cycle, performance shares were eliminated as a component of the Company's share-based compensation. Restricted shares vest either annually in equal installments over the specified service period or cliff-vest in full after the service period, depending on the award. OneBeacon expenses the full cost of all its share-based compensation over the requisite service period. The Company recognized expense related to its share-based compensation plans, including the KSOP plan, of $3.0 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Performance Shares

The following summarizes performance share activity for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

⁽¹⁾	There were no Performance share payments in 2017 for the 2014-2016 performance cycle due to the factor being zero. Performance share payments in 2016 for the 2013-2015 performance cycle were based upon a performance factor of 24.3%.

The following summarizes performance shares outstanding and accrued performance share expense at March 31, 2017 for each performance cycle:

Subtotal	309,796	1.9
Assumed forfeitures	—	—
Total at March 31, 2017	309,796	$	1.9

All performance shares cliff vest on December 31 of the last year in the cycle. If 100% of the outstanding performance shares had been vested on March 31, 2017, the total additional compensation cost to be recognized would have been $1.8 million, based on current accrual factors (common share price, accumulated dividends and payout assumptions) at March 31, 2017.

All performance shares earned and paid were settled in cash or by deferral into OneBeacon's deferred compensation plan.

Restricted Shares

On February 28, 2017, OneBeacon issued to certain employees 461,160 shares of restricted stock having a grant date fair value of $7.4 million, of which 235,000 were issued in anticipation of a sale transaction, as described in Note 15 - Subsequent Events, are scheduled to cliff vest on August 28, 2018, 115,450 are scheduled to cliff vest on January 1, 2020, and 110,710 are scheduled to vest in two equal installments on February 24, 2018 and February 24, 2019.

On February 24, 2016, OneBeacon issued to certain employees 170,650 shares of restricted stock having a grant date fair value of $2.3 million, of which 92,500 are scheduled to cliff vest in full on February 24, 2018 and the remaining 78,150 are scheduled to cliff vest in full on January 1, 2019. On February 24, 2015, OneBeacon issued to certain employees 75,950 shares of restricted stock having a grant date fair value of $1.1 million, of which 67,722 were outstanding as of March 31, 2017 and are scheduled to cliff vest in full on January 1, 2018.

On May 25, 2011, OneBeacon issued to its CEO 630,000 shares of restricted stock, of which 157,500 restricted shares vested on each of February 22, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017.

The restricted shares contain dividend participation features and therefore are considered participating securities.

The following summarizes restricted shares activity for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:



	Three months ended March 31,
	2017					2016
($ in millions)	Restricted Shares		Unamortized Issue Date Fair Value			Restricted Shares		Unamortized Issue Date Fair Value

End of period	699,532		$	8.6		395,872		$	4.3

Restricted shares that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 had a grant date fair value of $2.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2017, unrecognized compensation expense of $8.6 million related to restricted stock awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.9 years.

Restricted Stock Units

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, 240,160 RSUs were issued contingent upon the approval of the OneBeacon 2017 Long-Term Incentive Plan at the 2017 Annual General Meeting to be held May 24, 2017, all of which were outstanding as of March 31, 2017. The RSUs are scheduled to cliff vest in full on December 31, 2019, at which time the RSUs will be paid out in cash or shares at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, 222,449 RSUs were issued, of which 208,499 were outstanding as of March 31, 2017. The expense associated with the RSUs, which is being recognized over the vesting period, was $0.6 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

If 100% of outstanding RSUs had vested on March 31, 2017, additional compensation cost to be recognized would have been $7.0 million, based on current accrual factors (common share price and accumulated dividends) as of March 31, 2017.

Share-Based Compensation under Qualified Retirement Plans

OneBeacon sponsors a defined contribution plan, the KSOP. Under the KSOP, participants have the ability to invest their balances in several different investment options, including the common shares of White Mountains and the common shares of the Company. OneBeacon has recorded $1.2 million and $1.4 million in compensation expense to pay benefits and allocate common shares to participants' accounts for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the KSOP owned less than 3% of either of the total White Mountains common shares outstanding or the total Company common shares outstanding. All common shares held by the KSOP are considered outstanding for earnings per share computations.

NOTE 9. Income Taxes

OneBeacon and its Bermuda-domiciled subsidiaries are not subject to Bermuda income tax under current Bermuda law. In the event that there is a change in the current law such that taxes are imposed, OneBeacon and its Bermuda-domiciled subsidiaries would be exempt from such tax until March 31, 2035, pursuant to the Bermuda Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act of 1966. OneBeacon also has subsidiaries that operate in Gibraltar, Barbados, Luxembourg, Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States. U.S. operations are financed with a combination of debt and equity and the financing income and underwriting income currently account for the majority of non-U.S. earnings.

OneBeacon's income tax expense related to pre-tax income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 represented a net effective tax rate of 10.7% and (22.8)%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, were lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35% due to income generated in jurisdictions other than the United States, principally representing interest income and underwriting income taxed in a jurisdiction with a lower effective tax rate. Additionally, the rate for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was impacted by a $12.8 million favorable settlement of the 2007-2009 IRS exam, as further described below. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the effective tax rate on non-U.S. income was 0.2% and 0.7%, respectively.

In arriving at the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, OneBeacon forecasted all income and expense items including the realized and change in unrealized investment gains for the years ending December 31, 2017 and 2016, and included these gains in the effective tax rate calculation.

OneBeacon records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets if it becomes more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in income tax expense in the period of change. In determining whether or not a valuation allowance, or change therein, is warranted, OneBeacon considers factors such as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods as well as prudent and economically feasible strategies that, if executed would result in the realization of a deferred tax asset. It is possible that certain planning strategies or projected earnings in certain subsidiaries may not be feasible to utilize the entire deferred tax asset, which could result in material changes to OneBeacon’s deferred tax assets and tax expense.

OneBeacon classifies all interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense. With few exceptions, OneBeacon is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2013.

In the first and second quarters of 2016, OneBeacon recorded tax benefits of $12.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively, related to the settlement of IRS audits for tax years 2007-2009 and 2010-2012.

NOTE 10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

OneBeacon carries its financial instruments on its balance sheet at fair value with the exception of its investment in qualified affordable housing projects, which is accounted for using the proportional amortization method, and fixed-rate, long-term indebtedness. For certain financial instruments where quoted market prices are not available, other independent valuation techniques and assumptions are used. Because considerable judgment is used, these estimates are not necessarily indicative of amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange. Certain financial instruments are excluded from disclosure, including insurance contracts.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of OneBeacon's 2012 Senior Notes (its fixed-rate, long-term indebtedness) was $279.4 million and $274.2 million, respectively. As described in Note 5—"Debt", the net carrying value of the 2012 Senior Notes was $273.2 million as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The fair value measurement of the 2012 Senior Notes is classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy and determined based on the closing market price at the end of the fiscal quarter.

NOTE 11. Legal Contingencies

OneBeacon, and the insurance and reinsurance industry in general, is routinely subject to claims related litigation and arbitration in the normal course of business, as well as litigation and arbitration that does not arise from, or directly relate to, claims activity. OneBeacon's estimates of the costs of settling matters routinely encountered in claims activity are reflected in the reserves for unpaid loss and LAE. See Note 2—"Unpaid Loss and Loss Adjustment Expense ("LAE") Reserves."

OneBeacon evaluates its exposure to non-claims related litigation and arbitration and establishes accruals for litigation and arbitration if it is probable that a loss has been incurred and it can be reasonably estimated. Disclosure of litigation and arbitration is made if it is probable that a loss has been incurred or if there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred. Although the ultimate outcome of claims and non-claims related litigation and arbitration, and the amount or range of potential loss at any particular time, is often inherently uncertain, management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of such claims and non-claims related litigation and arbitration will have a material adverse effect on OneBeacon's financial position, full year results of operations, or cash flows.

The following summarizes significant ongoing non-claims related litigation or arbitration as of March 31, 2017:

Deutsche Bank Litigation

In June 2011, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, Law Debenture Company of New York and Wilmington Trust Company (collectively referred to as “Plaintiffs”), in their capacity as trustees for certain senior notes issued by the Tribune Company (“Tribune”), filed lawsuits in various jurisdictions (the “Noteholder Actions”) against numerous defendants including OneBeacon, OneBeacon-sponsored benefit plans and other affiliates of White Mountains in their capacity as former shareholders of Tribune seeking recovery of the proceeds from the sale of common stock of Tribune in connection with Tribune's leveraged buyout in 2007 (the “LBO”). Tribune filed for bankruptcy in 2008 in the Delaware bankruptcy court (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Bankruptcy Court granted Plaintiffs permission to commence these LBO-related actions, and in 2011, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation granted a motion to consolidate the actions for pretrial matters and transferred all such proceedings to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the SDNY). Plaintiffs seek recovery of the proceeds received by the former Tribune shareholders on a theory of constructive fraudulent transfer asserting that Tribune purchased or repurchased its common shares without receiving fair consideration at a time when it was, or as a result of the purchases of shares, was rendered, insolvent. OneBeacon has entered into a joint defense agreement with other affiliates of White Mountains that are defendants in the action. OneBeacon and OneBeacon-sponsored benefit plans received approximately $32 million for Tribune common stock tendered in connection with the LBO. The Court granted an omnibus motion to dismiss the Noteholders Action in September 2013 and plaintiffs appealed. On March 29, 2016, a three judge panel of the U.S Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the dismissal of the Noteholders Action. On July 22, 2016, the Plaintiff's petition to the Second Circuit for reconsideration or for a rehearing en banc was denied in full. On September 9, 2016 the Plaintiffs filed for a writ of certiorari, seeking review in the United States Supreme Court.

In addition, OneBeacon, OneBeacon-sponsored benefit plans and other affiliates of White Mountains in their capacity as former shareholders of Tribune, along with thousands of former Tribune shareholders, have been named as defendants in an adversary proceeding brought by the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors of the Tribune Company (the “Committee”), on behalf of the Tribune Company, which seeks to avoid the repurchase of shares by Tribune in the LBO on a theory of intentional fraudulent transfer (the “Committee Action”). Tribune emerged from bankruptcy in 2012, and a litigation trustee replaced the Committee as plaintiff in the Committee Action. This matter was consolidated for pretrial matters with the Noteholder Actions in the SDNY and was stayed pending the motion to dismiss in the Noteholder Action. An omnibus motion to dismiss the shareholder defendants in the Committee Action was filed in May 2014 and the motion was granted on January 6, 2017. The plaintiff has requested permission to move the SDNY to certify the decision as a final judgment capable of immediate appeal. No amount has been accrued in connection with this matter as of March 31, 2017, as the amount of loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated.

NOTE 13. Common Shareholders' Equity

Common Shares Repurchased and Retired

On August 22, 2007, the Company's Board authorized the repurchase of up to $200.0 million of its Class A common shares from time to time, subject to market conditions. Shares may be repurchased on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. This authorization does not have a stated expiration date. No shares were repurchased under the share repurchase authorization during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion contains "forward-looking statements." Statements that are not historical in nature are forward-looking statements. OneBeacon Insurance Group, Ltd. (the "Company" or the "Registrant") and its subsidiaries (collectively, "OneBeacon") cannot promise that its expectations in such forward-looking statements will turn out to be correct. OneBeacon's actual results could be materially different from and worse than its expectations. See "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 56 for specific important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements.

Overview—Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus three months ended March 31, 2016

We ended the first quarter of 2017 with a book value per share of $10.91, reflecting a 2.8% increase, including a quarterly dividend of $0.21 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the first quarter of 2016.

Net income attributable to OneBeacon's common shareholders was $32.1 million for the first quarter of 2017, compared to $46.4 million for the first quarter of 2016. Pre-tax underwriting income of $14.2 million for the first quarter of 2017, reflecting a combined ratio of 94.5%, compared to pre-tax underwriting income of $13.5 million for the first quarter of 2016, reflecting a combined ratio of 95.2%. The change in pre-tax underwriting results for the first quarter of 2017 were driven by lower expenses in the current year period. Pre-tax underwriting results for both the first quarter of 2017 and 2016 were adversely impacted by the poor results of our Healthcare business, and to a lesser extent, our Programs business.

Pre-tax net investment return was $27.2 million for the first quarter of 2017, representing a 1.1% total return on average invested assets, compared to $31.0 million for the first quarter of 2016, representing a 1.2% total return on average invested assets. The slight decrease from the prior year period was primarily driven by the fixed maturity investments portfolio driven by interest rate movements in the respective periods and a decreased return in our other investments portfolio driven by the surplus notes. These decreases were partially offset by a higher return in our common equity securities portfolio which benefited from stronger market performance (as measured by the S&P 500 total return index) as compared to the 2016 period.

Our net income for the first quarter of 2016 included a $12.8 million tax benefit resulting from the settlement of an IRS examination for tax years 2007, 2008 and 2009.

Gross and net written premiums are operating metrics used by the Company to measure business volume. The gross written premium metric is calculated by totaling all premium amounts, both direct and assumed, that customers are required to pay for policies that are written, or bound, during the relevant accounting period, with the net written premium metric being net of amounts ceded to reinsurance companies.

Consolidated Results—Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus three months ended March 31, 2016

Our comprehensive income attributable to OneBeacon's common shareholders was $32.2 million for the first quarter of 2017 compared to $46.4 million for the first quarter of 2016, with the change driven primarily by a $12.8 million tax benefit in the first quarter of 2016 resulting from the settlement of an IRS examination for tax years 2007, 2008 and 2009. Pre-tax investment results decreased $3.8 million due to lower returns in the fixed maturity investments and other investments portfolios but were partially offset by higher returns in the common equity securities portfolio driven by the factors discussed below in "Summary of Investment Results." Pre-tax underwriting results increased by $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2017 driven by lower expense across the Company driven by the factors discussed below. While most of our businesses contributed strong relative performance year over year, the favorable results were mostly offset by the performance of our Government Risks business which was negatively impacted by several large claims in the first quarter of 2017. Both of the first quarters of 2017 and 2016 were adversely impacted by the poor performance of our Healthcare, and to a lesser extent, our Programs business as described below.

Our total revenues of $292.4 million for the first quarter of 2017 decreased $18.1 million from $310.5 million for the 2016 period, due to a decrease in net earned premiums of $16.8 million, or 6.0%, driven by premium decreases in our Programs and Entertainment businesses in addition to the $3.8 million decrease in pre-tax investment results.

Table of Contents

Written Premiums

Consolidated net written premiums were $256.9 million in the first quarter of 2017, with the decrease of 8.3% from the comparative prior year period driven by Programs ($16.0 million), as we have exited two underperforming large accounts, in Entertainment ($9.6 million) due to a refinement of our underwriting appetite and in Healthcare ($4.2 million), reflecting the impact of refocusing our sales activity on more desirable risks.

Underwriting Results

Pre-tax underwriting income was $14.2 million for the first quarter of 2017, compared to pre-tax underwriting income of $13.5 million for the first quarter of 2016 driven by the factors discussed below.

Our combined ratio for the first quarter of 2017 of 94.5% reflected a 57.5% loss and LAE ratio and a 37.0% expense ratio, which compared to a combined ratio for the first quarter of 2016 of 95.2%, consisting of a 57.0% loss and LAE ratio and a 38.2% expense ratio.

The 0.5 point increase in the loss and LAE ratio was comprised of a 0.8 point increase in current accident year non-catastrophe losses, and a 0.3 point decrease in catastrophe losses.

Current accident year non-catastrophe losses for the first quarter of 2017 of $148.9 million, or 56.9 points, compared to $156.3 million, or 56.1 points, for the 2016 period. The increased current accident year non-catastrophe loss ratio was primarily driven by increased losses in our Architects & Engineers, Healthcare and Government Risks businesses.

There was no net loss and LAE reserve development on prior accident year reserves in the first quarter of 2017, as unfavorable reserve development, primarily in Healthcare due to an adverse ruling on a single managed care errors and omissions claim, and to a lesser extent, in Programs driven by an auto-related program, was offset by favorable reserve development driven by Technology, Accident & Health, and Entertainment resulting from favorable loss experience. There was also no net loss and LAE reserve development on prior accident year reserves in the first quarter of 2016, although unfavorable development was recorded primarily in the Healthcare business driven by large claims and heavy loss activity and, to a lesser extent, by Programs, but was offset by favorable development at a number of businesses, most notably Accident & Health and Technology.

Catastrophe losses of $1.7 million, or 0.6 points, in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $2.5 million, or 0.9 points, for the first quarter of 2016, reflecting fairly benign catastrophic activity in both periods.

The expense ratio decreased 1.2 points to 37.0% for the first quarter of 2017, compared to 38.2% for the first quarter of 2016, driven by lower employee benefit costs, resulting primarily from favorable results on investments supporting certain benefit plans, and lower acquisition costs in part due to mix of business along with decreased expenses across several other categories due to continued efforts to manage controllable expenses. These decreases more than offset the negative impact of lower earned premiums.

Investments

Net investment income decreased to $12.2 million for the first quarter of 2017, compared to $14.4 million for the first quarter of 2016, driven by a $2.4 million interest payment on the surplus notes in the first quarter of 2016. Net realized and change in unrealized investment gains of $15.0 million for the first quarter of 2017, compared to $16.6 million for the first quarter of 2016. The slight decrease was driven by a lower return in our fixed maturity investments portfolio driven by relative interest rate movements in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016. In addition, our other investments portfolio was adversely impacted by the surplus notes, which experienced a negative valuation adjustment during the first quarter of 2017 of $2.3 million as opposed to a $0.3 million favorable adjustment in the prior year period. These decreases were partially offset by a higher return in our common equity securities portfolio which benefited from stronger market performance (as measured by the S&P 500 total return index) as compared to 2016.

Other Revenues (Expenses)

The $2.5 million favorable change in other revenues compared to the first quarter of 2016 was driven by income for the first quarter of 2017 from the excess invested assets remaining after the termination of the OneBeacon qualified pension plan (Qualified Plan).

General and Administrative Expenses

The Company accrued $1.4 million of general and administrative expenses for professional services rendered as of March 31, 2017 in conjunction with the transaction described in Note 15 - Subsequent Events.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense related to pre-tax income represented a net effective tax rate of 10.7% for the first quarter of 2017 compared to a net effective benefit of 22.8% for the first quarter of 2016. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2017 and 2016 were lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35% due to income generated in jurisdictions other than the United

Table of Contents

States, principally representing interest income and underwriting income taxed in a jurisdiction with a lower effective tax rate and, for the first quarter of 2016, the impact of a $12.8 million favorable settlement of the 2007, 2008 and 2009 IRS examination. The effective tax rate on non-U.S. income for the first quarter of 2017 and 2016 was 0.2% and 0.7%, respectively.

Reinsurance Protection

We purchase reinsurance in order to minimize loss from large risks or catastrophic events. We also purchase individual property reinsurance coverage for certain risks to reduce large loss volatility through property-per-risk excess of loss reinsurance programs and individual risk facultative reinsurance. We also maintain excess of loss casualty reinsurance programs that provide protection for individual risk or catastrophe losses involving workers' compensation, general liability, automobile liability, professional liability or umbrella liability. The availability and cost of reinsurance protection is subject to market conditions, which are outside of our control. Limiting our risk of loss through reinsurance arrangements serves to mitigate the impact of large losses; however, the cost of this protection in an individual period may exceed the benefit.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, our net combined ratio was higher than our gross combined ratio by 6.3 points and 10.7 points, respectively, as a result of the cost of the reinsurance programs more than offsetting the benefits from ceded losses. In the first quarter of 2016, the Crop business reduced the gross combined ratio, but had no effect on the net combined ratio, as 100% of the Crop results were ceded under the quota share reinsurance agreement that OneBeacon entered into on July 31, 2015 pursuant to our exit of the Crop business. Excluding the effects of the Crop business, our net combined ratio was higher than our gross combined ratio by 5.3 points for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as a result of the cost of the reinsurance programs. The Crop business did not impact either ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Summary of Operations By Segment

Our reportable segments are Specialty Products, Specialty Industries, and Investing, Financing and Corporate.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company completed its transition to reflect certain management changes and a re-segmenting of various business lines within underwriting operating segments. As part of the transition, the Company's executive management, including the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), began receiving a new CODM package which reflected an adjusted aggregation of the underwriting operating segments among the existing underwriting reportable segments. The new underwriting operating segments are also consistent with how we began externally branding the related insurance products during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The following represents a summary of the changes made:

Other Professional Lines: The Other Professional Lines former underwriting operating segment is no longer considered an underwriting operating segment.

Prior periods have been restated to conform to current presentation of segment information. Other than these changes, there have been no material changes to the Company's determination of reportable segments from that reported in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Specialty Products segment is comprised of ten active underwriting operating segments, representing an aggregation based on those that offer distinct products and tailored coverages and services to a broad customer base across the United States. Specialty Products includes the Healthcare, Management Liability, Financial Services, Architects and Engineers, Specialty Property, Environmental, Tuition Reimbursement, Programs, Surety and Financial Institutions underwriting operating segments.

The Specialty Industries segment is comprised of six active underwriting operating segments, representing an aggregation based on those that focus on solving the unique needs of a particular customer or industry group. The Specialty Industries segment includes the Ocean Marine, Inland Marine, Technology, Accident & Health, Government Risks and Entertainment underwriting operating segments.

The Investing, Financing and Corporate segment includes the investing and financing activities for OneBeacon on a consolidated basis, and certain other activities conducted through the Company and our intermediate holding company subsidiaries.

Specialty Products—Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus three months ended March 31, 2016

Net written premiums for Specialty Products decreased to $105.1 million for the first quarter of 2017 from $118.4 million for the comparative 2016 period, primarily due to a decrease at our Programs business ($16.0 million), as we have exited two large accounts as a result of poor underwriting results, and to a lesser extent, due to a decrease at our Healthcare business ($4.2 million), reflecting the impact of refocusing our sales activity on more desirable risks. These decreases were partially offset by modest increases at most of our other businesses, most notably Management Liability ($3.5 million) and Architects & Engineers ($3.1 million).

The Specialty Products combined ratio for the first quarter of 2017 decreased to 103.4% from 106.2% for the first quarter of 2016, as the loss and LAE ratio decreased by 0.6 points to 69.5%, and the expense ratio decreased by 2.2 points to 33.9%.

The 0.6 point decrease to the loss and LAE ratio in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the 2016 period was comprised of a 2.7 point increase in current accident year non-catastrophe losses that was more than offset by a 3.3 point favorable change in net prior year loss reserve development. Catastrophe losses of 0.4% in the first quarter of 2017 were consistent with the 2016 period.

The current accident year non-catastrophe loss ratio for the first quarter of 2017 was 60.3%, compared to 57.6% for the first quarter of 2016, with the increase driven by increased losses in our Architects & Engineers business, with both periods being adversely affected by Programs and Healthcare.

Table of Contents

The first quarter of 2017 results included 8.8 points of net unfavorable prior accident year loss reserve development, primarily in Healthcare due primarily to an adverse settlement on a single managed care errors and omissions claim, and to a lesser extent, unfavorable development in Programs driven by an auto-related program, which was modestly offset by favorable development in Surety and Financial Services, among others, resulting from favorable loss activity. This compared with 12.1 points of net unfavorable prior year loss reserve development in the first quarter of 2016, primarily related to unfavorable loss reserve development driven by large claims and heavy loss activity in Healthcare, and to a lesser extent, Programs and Architects & Engineers, which was partially offset by favorable development in Financial Services and Surety.

The first quarter of 2017 and 2016 both included fairly benign catastrophe losses of 0.4 points.

The 2.2 point decrease in the expense ratio for the first quarter of 2017, compared to the first quarter of 2016, was driven by lower insurance acquisition expenses as well as lower employee benefit costs resulting primarily from favorable results on investments supporting certain benefit plans, lower depreciation expense on capitalized software, and decreased external consulting expense along with decreased expenses across several other categories due to continued efforts to manage controllable expenses. These decreases more than offset the negative impact of lower earned premiums.

Specialty Industries—Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus three months ended March 31, 2016

Net written premiums for Specialty Industries decreased to $151.8 million for the first quarter of 2017 from $161.7 million for the comparative 2016 period. The decrease in the first quarter of 2017 was driven by an $9.6 million decrease at our Entertainment business due to a refinement of our underwriting appetite along with a decrease at Accident & Health ($4.9 million) driven by the Medical Excess sub-line. These decreases were partially offset by modest increases at several other business units, most notably, Government Risks ($2.0 million).

The Specialty Industries combined ratio for the first quarter of 2017 increased to 87.2%, compared to 86.4% for the first quarter of 2016, as the loss and LAE ratio increased by 0.9 points to 47.5%, and the expense ratio decreased by 0.1 point to 39.7%.

The 0.9 point increase to the loss and LAE ratio was comprised of a 0.8 point decrease in current accident year non-catastrophe losses, a 2.1 point unfavorable change in prior year loss reserve development and a 0.4 point decrease in catastrophe losses.

The current accident year non-catastrophe loss ratio for the first quarter of 2017 was 54.0%, compared to 54.8% for the first quarter of 2016, driven by the improved relative performance of most of our businesses, most notably Ocean Marine and Accident & Health, but was partially offset by higher current accident year non-catastrophe losses in our Government Risks business.

Results for the first quarter of 2017 included 7.4 points of net favorable prior accident year loss reserve development driven by Technology, Accident & Health, and Entertainment resulting from better than expected case incurred activity, which was partially offset by a large prior accident year claim in the runoff Energy business as well as modest unfavorable development in other businesses. This compared to 9.5 points of net favorable prior accident year loss reserve development in the first quarter of 2016, driven by Accident & Health, Technology and Government Risks, generally resulting from better than expected case incurred activity.

Results for the first quarter of 2017 included 0.9 points of catastrophe losses, resulting from modest activity impacting several businesses. This compared to 1.3 points of catastrophe losses in the first quarter of 2016, driven by winter storms in the eastern United States, primarily impacting Ocean Marine.

The 0.1 point slight decrease in the expense ratio for the first quarter of 2017, compared to the first quarter of 2016, was driven by lower allocated expenses due primarily to a decrease in employee benefit costs, and mostly offset by the negative impact of lower earned premiums and higher direct expenses.

Investing, Financing and Corporate—Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus three months ended March 31, 2016

Investing, Financing and Corporate reported pre-tax income of $22.7 million in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $25.0 million in the first quarter of 2016. The decrease was driven by lower pre-tax investment results due to lower returns in the fixed maturity investments and other investments portfolios but was partially offset by higher returns in the common equity securities portfolio. This decrease was partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in net other revenues compared to the first quarter of 2016 resulting from income from the excess invested assets that previously supported the Qualified Plan, the majority of which are now held in the Qualified Replacement Plan.

Summary of Investment Results

OneBeacon invests to maximize long-term total returns (after-tax) while taking prudent levels of risk and maintaining a diversified portfolio, subject to investment guidelines and regulatory restrictions. Investments include fixed maturity investments, short-term investments, common equity securities and other investments.

During the third quarter of 2016, OneBeacon established a portfolio of high-yield fixed maturity investments. Given the risk profile of these investments, OneBeacon's management believes that the returns associated with the high-yield fixed maturity investments are more appropriately included with the returns from common equity securities and other investments instead of with returns associated with short-term investments and investment grade fixed maturity investments. See "INVESTMENT RETURN NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE" on page 52.

OneBeacon's investment return percentages are presented gross of management fees and trading expenses in order to produce a better comparison to benchmark returns, while all dollar amounts are presented net of management fees and trading expenses.

Investment Returns—Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus three months ended March 31, 2016

Overview

Our total pre-tax investment results were $27.2 million, a return on average invested assets of 1.1%, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $31.0 million, a return on average invested assets of 1.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The slight decrease was driven by a lower return on our fixed maturity investments portfolio, which reflects a

largely unchanged treasury curve in the first quarter of 2017 compared to a significant decline in treasury rates in the first quarter of 2016. In addition, our other investments portfolio was adversely impacted in the three months ended March 31, 2017 by a negative $2.3 million valuation adjustment to the surplus notes. Those decreases were partially offset by a higher return in our common equity securities portfolio, which benefited from stronger market performance (as measured by the S&P 500 total return index) as compared to 2016.

Fixed income

We maintain a high quality fixed income portfolio with a relatively short duration of approximately 2.8 years excluding short-term investments and approximately 2.7 years including short-term investments as of March 31, 2017. Our fixed income portfolio returned 0.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, outperforming the longer duration, but higher credit quality Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Index return of 0.7% compared to 1.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, underperforming the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Index return of 2.3%.

Excluding high-yield fixed maturity investments, our fixed income portfolio returned 0.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, outperforming the longer duration Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Index return of 0.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Common equity securities and other investments

OneBeacon maintains a portfolio of common equity securities and other investments, including surplus notes, hedge funds and private equity funds. We believe that prudent levels of these investments are likely to enhance long-term after-tax total returns. Our portfolio of common equity securities and other investments represented approximately 12.9% of total invested assets as of both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Including high-yield fixed maturity investments OneBeacon’s portfolio of common equity securities, other investments and high-yield fixed maturity investments represented approximately 16.6% and 16.4% of total invested assets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Our common equity securities portfolio returned 5.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, underperforming the S&P 500 Index return of 6.1%, compared to 2.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, outperforming the S&P 500 Index return of 1.3%. Both variances to the S&P 500 Index return can largely be attributed to the results of our actively-managed publicly traded common equity securities portfolio.

Our other investments portfolio returned (1.2)% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, significantly underperforming the S&P 500 Index return of 6.1%, compared to 0.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, modestly underperforming the S&P 500 Index return of 1.3%. The variance for the three months ended March 31, 2017 is largely attributable to a negative $2.3 million valuation adjustment to the surplus notes, reflecting an increase in the assumed liquidity spread from 250 basis points to 400 basis points, partially offset by the impact of narrowing of non-investment grade credit spreads. The change in estimated liquidity spread reflects management’s increasing view that the surplus notes would be difficult to sell.

Our common equity securities and other investments portfolio returned 2.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, underperforming the S&P 500 Index return of 6.1%, compared to 1.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, outperforming the S&P 500 Index return of 1.3%.

The portfolio of common equity securities, other investments and high-yield fixed maturity investments returned 2.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which underperformed the S&P 500 Index return of 6.1%.

OneBeacon invests in ETFs that seek to provide investment results that, before expenses, generally correspond to the performance of broad market indices. The ETF investments earned the effective market return, before expenses.

The following summarizes OneBeacon's investments in ETFs by exposure to each index:



	Fair Value ($ in millions)
Index	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
S&P 500	$	173.4	$	164.4

We, through White Mountains Advisors LLC (WM Advisors), a registered investment advisor and wholly owned subsidiary of White Mountains, have established a relationship with an unrelated third party registered investment adviser, Lateef Investment Management (Lateef), to actively manage a portion of our common equity securities portfolio. The Lateef common equity portfolio had fair values of $25.5 million and $24.3 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which reflect a reduction in the allocation to Lateef that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2016, with the pre-reduction fair value as of September 30, 2016 at $110.6 million.

During the third quarter of 2016, we established a portfolio of high-yield fixed maturity investments. The high-yield portfolio had a fair value of $96.5 million as of March 31, 2017.

INVESTMENT RETURN NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE

In the third quarter of 2016, OneBeacon purchased high-yield fixed maturity investments, which are U.S. dollar denominated publicly traded and 144A debt securities issued by corporations with generally at least one rating between "B-" and "BB+" inclusive by Standard and Poor's or similar ratings from other agencies. Given the risk profile of these investments, OneBeacon has included returns on high-yield fixed maturity investment returns with returns on common equity securities and other investments. A reconciliation of these returns follows:

Our sources and uses of cash are as follows:

Holding company level. The primary sources of cash for OneBeacon Insurance Group, Ltd. (OneBeacon Ltd.) and certain of our intermediate subsidiaries are expected to be distributions and tax sharing payments received from our insurance operating subsidiaries, capital raising activities, net investment income, and proceeds from sales and maturities of holding company investments. The primary uses of cash are expected to be interest payments on our debt obligations, repurchases and retirements of our debt obligations, dividend payments on our common shares, common share repurchases, purchases of investments, payments made to tax authorities, contributions to our operating subsidiaries, and holding company operating expenses.

Operating subsidiary level. The primary sources of cash for our operating subsidiaries are expected to be premium collections, net investment income, capital raising activities, contributions from our holding companies, and proceeds from sales and maturities of investments. The primary uses of cash are expected to be claim payments, policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses, interest payments on internal debt obligations, repurchases and retirements of internal debt obligations, purchases of investments, and distributions and tax sharing payments made to parent holding companies.

Insurance companies typically collect premiums on policies that they write prior to paying claims made under those policies. During periods of premium growth, insurance companies typically experience positive cash flow from operations, as premium receipts typically exceed claim payments and other operating expenses. When this happens, positive cash flow from operations is usually offset by negative cash flow from investing activities, as the positive operating cash flow is used to purchase investments. Conversely, during periods of premium decline, insurance companies typically experience negative cash flow from operations, even during periods in which they report net income, as the claims and other operating expenses that they pay exceed the premiums that they collect. When this happens, negative cash flow from operations is typically offset by positive cash flow from investing activities, as invested assets are sold to fund current claim payments.

Both internal and external forces influence our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Claim settlements, premium levels and investment returns may be impacted by changing rates of inflation and other economic conditions. In many cases, significant periods of time, sometimes several years or more, may lapse between the occurrence of an insured loss, the reporting of the loss to us and the settlement of the liability for that loss. The exact timing of the payment of claims and benefits cannot be predicted with certainty. Our operating subsidiaries maintain portfolios of invested assets with varying maturities and a substantial amount of cash and short-term investments to provide adequate liquidity for the payment of claims.

Management believes that our cash balances, cash flows from operations and cash flows from investments are adequate to meet expected cash requirements for the foreseeable future on both a holding company and operating subsidiary level.

Dividend Capacity

Under the insurance laws of the states and jurisdictions under which our insurance operating subsidiaries are domiciled, an insurer is restricted with respect to the timing and the amount of dividends it may pay without prior approval by regulatory authorities. Accordingly, there can be no assurance regarding the amount of such dividends that may be paid by such subsidiaries in the future.

Our top tier regulated U.S. insurance operating subsidiary, Atlantic Specialty Insurance Company (ASIC), has the ability to pay dividends to its immediate parent without the prior approval of regulatory authorities in an amount set by formula based on the lesser of (i) adjusted net investment income, as defined by statute, or (ii) 10% of statutory surplus, in both cases as most

recently reported to regulatory authorities, subject to availability of earned surplus. Based upon the formula described above, most recently calculated as of December 31, 2016, ASIC currently had the ability to pay $11.4 million of dividends without the prior approval of regulatory authorities. When taking into consideration the rolling 12-month portion of this statutorily-defined calculation, including adjusted net investment income and the timing of dividends paid, we anticipated that ASIC would have the ability to pay dividends of approximately $30.0 million during 2017, which it did on April 27, 2017. As of December 31, 2016, ASIC had $624.8 million of statutory surplus and $69.0 million of earned surplus.

In 2017, Split Rock has the ability to distribute statutory capital without the prior approval of the Bermuda Monetary Authority, provided it does not reduce its total statutory capital, as shown in its previous financial year’s statutory financial statements, by 15% or more.

In addition, Split Rock has the ability to pay dividends without the prior notification of regulatory authorities of up to 25% of its previous financial year's total statutory capital and surplus, subject to meeting all appropriate liquidity and solvency requirements as specified in the Insurance Act and the Companies Act. As of December 31, 2016, Split Rock had $210.1 million of total statutory capital and $60.1 million of surplus for total statutory capital and surplus of $270.2 million.

Based upon the limitations described above, Split Rock currently has the ability to distribute up to $31.5 million of statutory capital and pay up to $60.1 million of dividends during 2017 without the prior approval of regulatory authorities. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, Split Rock did not pay any dividends or distributions to its immediate parent.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, our unregulated insurance operating subsidiaries paid $4.8 million and $4.6 million, respectively, of dividends to their immediate parent. As of March 31, 2017, our unregulated insurance operating subsidiaries had $59.8 million of net unrestricted cash, short-term investments, and fixed maturity investments and $69.6 million of other investments consisting of the surplus notes.

As described in Note 13—"Common Shareholders' Equity" to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, we declared and paid dividends totaling $19.9 million and $19.8 million, respectively, to our common shareholders.

As of March 31, 2017, OneBeacon Ltd. and its intermediate holding company subsidiaries held $44.2 million of net unrestricted cash, short-term investments and fixed maturity investments and $12.5 million of common equity securities outside of its regulated and unregulated insurance operating subsidiaries.

Insurance Float

Insurance float is an important aspect of our insurance operations. Insurance float represents funds that an insurance company holds for a limited time. In an insurance operation, float arises because premiums are collected before losses are paid. This interval can extend over many years. During that time, the insurer invests the funds. When the premiums that an insurer collects do not cover the losses and expenses it eventually must pay, the result is an underwriting loss, which can be considered as the cost of insurance float. One manner in which we calculate our insurance float is by taking our insurance liabilities and subtracting insurance assets. Although insurance float can be calculated using numbers determined under GAAP, insurance float is not a GAAP concept and, therefore, there is no comparable GAAP measure.

Insurance float can increase in a number of ways, including through acquisitions of insurance operations, organic growth in existing insurance operations and recognition of losses that do not immediately cause a corresponding reduction in investment assets. Conversely, insurance float can decrease in a number of other ways, including sales of insurance operations, shrinking or run-off of existing insurance operations, the acquisition of operations that do not have substantial investment assets (e.g., an agency) and the recognition of gains that do not cause a corresponding increase in investment assets. We intend to generate low-cost float over time through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions.

Certain operational leverage metrics can be measured with ratios that are calculated using insurance float. There are many activities that do not change the amount of insurance float at an insurance company but can have a significant impact on the company's operational leverage metrics. For example, investment gains and losses, debt issuances and repurchases/repayments, common share issuances and repurchases and dividends paid to shareholders are all activities that do not change insurance float but that can meaningfully impact operational leverage metrics that are calculated using insurance float.

Table of Contents

The following table illustrates our consolidated insurance float position and two operational leverage ratios based on insurance float as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:



($ in millions)	March 31, 2017			December 31, 2016
Loss and LAE reserves	$	1,368.8		$	1,365.6
Unearned premiums	578.4			575.1
Reinsurance balances payable	11.2			17.0
Funds held under insurance contracts	148.7			153.0
Insurance liabilities	$	2,107.1		$	2,110.7

Cash in regulated insurance and reinsurance subsidiaries	$	20.9		$	13.6
Reinsurance recoverable on paid and unpaid losses	178.1			179.5
Premiums receivable	225.9			228.3
Deferred acquisition costs	98.5			96.3
Ceded unearned premiums	52.4			44.2
Insurance assets	$	575.8		$	561.9
Insurance float	$	1,531.3		$	1,548.8
Insurance float as a multiple of total capital	1.2		x	1.2		x
Insurance float as a multiple of OneBeacon's common shareholders' equity	1.5		x	1.5		x

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, insurance float decreased by $17.5 million, primarily due to the slight contraction of our insurance operations.

Financing

Debt

The following table summarizes our debt to capital ratio at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016:



($ in millions)	March 31, 2017			December 31, 2016
Senior Notes, carrying value	$	273.2		$	273.2
Non-controlling interest	3.4			3.9
OneBeacon's common shareholders' equity	1,033.4			1,021.3
Total capital	$	1,310.0		$	1,298.4
Ratio of debt to total capital	20.9		%	21.0		%

We believe that we have the flexibility and capacity to obtain funds externally as needed through debt or equity financing on both a short-term and long-term basis. However, we can provide no assurance that, if needed, we would be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms, if at all.

On September 29, 2015, the Company and OneBeacon Holdings, Inc. (OBH), as co-borrowers and co-guarantors, entered into a revolving credit facility administered by U.S. Bank N.A. (U.S. Bank) and including BMO Harris Bank N.A. as an additional lender, which has a total commitment of $65.0 million and has a maturity date of September 29, 2019 (Credit Facility). As of March 31, 2017, the Credit Facility was undrawn.

In November 2012, OBH issued $275.0 million face value of senior unsecured notes (2012 Senior Notes) through a public offering, at an issue price of 99.9% and received $272.9 million of proceeds. The 2012 Senior Notes bear an annual interest rate of 4.6% payable semi-annually in arrears on May 9 and November 9, until maturity on November 9, 2022, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to the payment of principal and interest by the Company.

Table of Contents

The 2012 Senior Notes were issued under indentures that contain restrictive covenants which, among other things, limit the ability of the Company, OBH, and their respective subsidiaries to create liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions and limit the ability of the Company and OBH to consolidate, merge or transfer their properties and assets. The indentures do not contain any financial ratios or specified levels of net worth or liquidity to which the Company or OBH must adhere. In addition, a failure by the Company, OBH or their respective subsidiaries to pay principal and interest on covered debt, where such failure results in the acceleration of at least $75.0 million of the principal amount of covered debt, could trigger the acceleration of the 2012 Senior Notes.

No interest was paid or scheduled to be paid on the 2012 Senior Notes during each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company and OBH were in compliance with all of the covenants under the 2012 Senior Notes and the Credit Facility, and anticipate they will continue to remain in compliance with these covenants for the foreseeable future.

Share Repurchase Authorization

On August 22, 2007, our Board authorized us to repurchase up to $200.0 million of OneBeacon's Class A common shares from time to time, subject to market conditions. Shares may be repurchased on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. This authorization does not have a stated expiration date. Since the inception of this authorization, the Company has repurchased and retired 6.7 million of its Class A common shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, no shares were repurchased under the share repurchase authorization. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, 850,349 shares were repurchased under the share repurchase authorization for $10.6 million at an average share price of $12.42. The amount of authorization remaining is $75.0 million as of March 31, 2017.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company repurchased 67,273 and 64,981 common shares, respectively, for $1.1 million and $0.9 million to satisfy employee income tax withholding pursuant to employee benefit plans. Shares repurchased pursuant to employee benefit plans do not reduce the board authorization referred to above.
