AXIS CAPITAL HOLDINGS LIMITED
AXIS Capital is the Bermuda-based holding company for the AXIS group of companies and was incorporated on
December 9, 2002. AXIS Specialty Limited ("AXIS Specialty Bermuda") commenced operations on November 20, 2001. AXIS
Specialty Bermuda and its subsidiaries became wholly owned subsidiaries of AXIS Capital pursuant to an exchange offer
consummated on December 31, 2002. AXIS Capital provides a broad range of specialty (re)insurance on a worldwide basis,
through operating subsidiaries and branch networks based in Bermuda, the United States, Europe, Singapore, Canada, Australia
and Latin America. AXIS Capital also maintains marketing offices in Brazil, France and Spain.
AXIS Capital's underwriting operations are organized around two global underwriting platforms, AXIS Insurance and AXIS
Reinsurance. Therefore AXIS Capital has determined that it has two reportable segments, insurance and reinsurance. AXIS
Capital does not allocate its assets by segment, with the exception of goodwill and intangible assets, as it evaluates the
underwriting results of each segment separately from the results of its investment portfolio.
AXIS Capital's insurance segment operates through offices in Bermuda, the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia and
Singapore and offers specialty insurance products to a variety of niche markets on a worldwide basis. The following are the lines
of business in AXIS Capital's insurance segment:

·
Property: provides physical loss or damage, business interruption and machinery breakdown coverage for virtually all

types of property, including commercial buildings, residential premises, construction projects and onshore energy
installations. This line of business consists of both primary and excess risks, some of which are catastrophe-exposed.

·
Marine: provides coverage for traditional marine classes, including offshore energy, cargo, liability, recreational
marine, fine art, specie, hull and war. Offshore energy coverage includes physical damage, business interruption,

operators extra expense and liability coverage for all aspects of offshore upstream energy, from exploration and
construction through the operation and distribution phases.

·
Terrorism: provides coverage for physical damage and business interruption of an insured following an act of

terrorism.

·
Aviation: provides hull and liability and specific war coverage primarily for passenger airlines but also for cargo

operations, general aviation operations, airports, aviation authorities, security firms and product manufacturers.

Table of Contents
·
Credit and political risk: provides credit and political risk insurance products for banks and corporations. Coverage
is provided for a range of risks including sovereign default, credit default, political violence, currency inconvertibility
and non-transfer, expropriation, aircraft non-repossession and contract frustration due to political events. The credit

insurance coverage is primarily for lenders seeking to mitigate the risk of non-payment from their borrowers in
emerging markets. For the credit insurance contracts, it is necessary for the buyer of the insurance (most often a bank)
to hold an insured asset (most often an underlying loan) in order to claim compensation under the insurance contract.

·
Professional lines: provides coverage for directors' and officers' liability, errors and omissions liability, employment
practices liability, fiduciary liability, crime, professional indemnity and other financial insurance related coverages for

commercial enterprises, financial institutions and not-for-profit organizations. This business is predominantly written
on a claims-made basis.

·
Liability: primarily targets primary and low/mid-level excess and umbrella commercial liability risks in the U.S.
excess and surplus lines markets. Target industry sectors include construction, manufacturing, transportation and

trucking and other services. AXIS Capital also targets middle to high excess liability business in the London and
Bermuda wholesale markets and primary and excess business in the Canadian marketplace.

·
Accident & health: includes accidental death, travel insurance and specialty health products for employer and affinity

groups, as well as accident & health reinsurance for catastrophic or per life events on a quota share and/or excess of
loss basis, with aggregate and/or per person deductibles.
AXIS Capital's reinsurance segment operates through offices in Bermuda, the United States, Switzerland, Singapore, Brazil
and Canada and provides non-life reinsurance to insurance companies on a worldwide basis. The following are AXIS Capital's
lines of business in its reinsurance segment:

·
Catastrophe: provides protection for most catastrophic losses that are covered in the underlying insurance policies
written by AXIS Capital's cedants. The exposure in the underlying policies is principally property exposure but also

covers other exposures including workers compensation and personal accident. The principal perils in this portfolio
are hurricane and windstorm, earthquake, flood, tornado, hail and fire. In some instances, terrorism may be a covered
peril or the only peril. AXIS Capital underwrites catastrophe reinsurance principally on an excess of loss basis.

·
Property: provides coverage for property damage and related losses resulting from natural and man-made perils
contained in underlying personal and commercial policies. While AXIS Capital's predominant exposure is to property
damage, other risks, including business interruption and other non-property losses, may also be covered when arising

from a covered peril. While AXIS Capital's most significant exposures typically relate to losses from windstorms,
tornadoes and earthquakes, it is exposed to other perils such as freezes, riots, floods, industrial explosions, fires, hail
and a number of other loss events. AXIS Capital assumes business on both a proportional and an excess of loss basis.

·
Professional Lines: covers directors' and officers' liability, employment practices liability, medical malpractice,
professional indemnity, environmental liability and miscellaneous errors and omissions insurance risks. The underlying

business is predominantly written on a claims-made basis. Business is written on both a proportional and excess of
loss basis.

·
Credit and Surety: consists of reinsurance of trade credit insurance products and includes both proportional and excess
of loss structures. The underlying insurance indemnifies sellers of goods and services in the event of a payment default

by the buyer of those goods and services. Also included in this line of business is coverage for losses arising from a
broad array of surety bonds issued by insurers to satisfy regulatory demands or contract obligations in a variety of
jurisdictions around the world. Bonding is also known as surety insurance.

·
Motor: provides coverage to cedants for motor liability and property damage losses arising out of any one occurrence.

The occurrence can involve one or many claimants where the ceding insurer aggregates the claims from the occurrence.

·
Liability: provides coverage to insurers of standard casualty business, excess and surplus casualty business and

specialty casualty programs. The primary focus of the underlying business is general liability, although workers
compensation and auto liability are also written.

·
Engineering: provides coverage for all types of construction risks and risks associated with erection, testing and
commissioning of machinery and plants during the construction stage. This line of business also includes coverage for

losses arising from operational failures of machinery, plant and equipment and electronic equipment as well as

·
Agriculture: provides coverage for risks associated with the production of food and fiber on a global basis for primary
