Independent Auditors Report Board of Directors Starr Insurance & Reinsurance Limited and Subsidiaries We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Starr Insurance & Reinsurance Limited and Subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholder s equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Management s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. 1

Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Starr Insurance & Reinsurance Limited and Subsidiaries as of, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. The Company and its Activities Starr Insurance & Reinsurance Limited (the Company ) was incorporated under the laws of Bermuda on April 12, 2007. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Starr International Investments Ltd, (the Parent ) a Bermuda registered company which in turn is 100% owned by Starr International Company, Inc, ( SICO ) a Swiss company incorporated in 1943. The registered office of the Company is Bermuda Commercial Bank Building, 19 Par-la-Ville Road, Hamilton, Bermuda. The Company reinsures on a quota share basis insurance companies which underwrite various classes of business. The Company also provides aggregate stop loss reinsurance to certain affiliated companies. Since inception, the majority of business reinsured was produced by the agency subsidiaries of C.V. Starr & Co, Inc. (the Starr Agencies ). The Company reinsures the following lines of business - aviation, energy, excess casualty, property, accident and health, professional liability, marine, residential construction, contractors pollution, political financial risk and multi-peril crop. The Company uses quota share and excess of loss retrocessional reinsurance agreements to limit its exposure on reinsurance assumed. As of January 1, 2012, the Starr Agencies are owned by Starr Indemnity & Liability Company, a U.S. domestic insurance company under common control with the Company. A wholly-owned subsidiary, Starr International Cayman, Inc. and Subsidiaries ( Starr Cayman ), an investment management company, invests primarily in limited partnerships, real estate investments and private equity funds. On January 1, 2011, the Company s United Kingdom Branch, Starr Insurance & Reinsurance Limited, London Branch, commenced writing various lines of business including aviation, energy, property, marine, casualty and political and financial risk on a direct basis. On May 31, 2011, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, Starr International Insurance (Singapore) Pte Ltd. ( Starr Singapore ) and $11,925,900 of cash and fixed maturity securities were contributed to the contributed surplus of Starr Singapore by the Company. The Company evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure through April 29, 2013, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. 2. Significant Accounting Policies The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. While management believes that the amounts included in the financial statements reflect the Company's best estimates and assumptions, actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates made by the Company include fair value of investments, other-than-temporary impairment of investments, deferred acquisition costs and loss and loss adjustment expense reserves. 7

Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include all accounts, after intercompany eliminations, between the Company and its subsidiaries. Noncontrolling Interests The Company records noncontrolling (i.e., minority) interests in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries in the consolidated balance sheet as a separate component of consolidated shareholder s equity. The noncontrolling interests share of net income or loss is reported as a part of consolidated net income with disclosure of the attribution of consolidated net loss attributable to the controlling and noncontrolling interests on the face of the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Premiums Gross premiums written are recognized as revenue on a pro rata basis over the term of reinsurance treaties to which they relate. The portion of premiums that will be earned in the future are deferred and reported as unearned premiums. Premiums written for which the ceding company's reports are not available are estimated. Insurance Balances Receivable Insurance balances receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history of ceding companies and their current financial condition. Provisions for uncollectible insurance balance receivables are charged against an allowance account when such balances are deemed to be uncollectible. The Company had no valuation allowance recorded as of. Reinsurance Ceded Reinsurance premiums ceded are recognized over the policy term in the same manner as the related premiums are earned. The portion of premiums that will be recognized in the future are deferred and reported as prepaid reinsurance premiums. The Company uses quota share and excess of loss reinsurance arrangements to reduce the risk of catastrophic loss from reinsurance assumed. The ceding of risks to retrocessionaires does not relieve the Company of its obligations to its ceding companies. The Company remains liable to its ceding companies for the portion reinsured to the extent that any reinsurer does not meet the obligations assumed under the reinsurance arrangement. To minimize its exposure to significant losses from reinsurer insolvencies, the Company evaluates the financial condition of its reinsurers. It is the opinion of management that the financial strength of the Company's reinsurers is such that any potential exposure to the Company for non-payment is minimal, and therefore no valuation allowance has been recorded as of. 8

Certain quota share agreements written and ceded include profit sharing provisions. The Company accrues assets or liabilities pursuant to the profit sharing provisions based upon the best estimate of the probable profit or loss. As of, the Company recorded ultimate profit commissions in the amount of $1,456 and $1,733, respectively, which are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Deferred Acquisition Costs Acquisition costs represent commissions and other costs of successfully acquiring new insurance and reinsurance contracts and the renewing of existing contracts. Acquisition costs are deferred and amortized over the term of the contracts to which they relate. Proceeds from retrocessional reinsurance transactions that represent recovery of acquisition costs reduce applicable unamortized acquisition costs in such a manner that net acquisition costs are capitalized and charged to expense in proportion to net revenue recognized. The amount amortized into earnings for the years ended was $6,149 and $3,177, respectively. The Company conducts a premium deficiency analysis whereby deferred acquisition costs are reviewed to determine if they are recoverable from future income. If such costs are estimated to be unrecoverable they are written off. The Company considers investment income in its determination of premium deficiency. The Company determined no such deficiency existed as of. Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses Losses and loss adjustment expenses ( LAE ) include amounts paid and recovered in the period and changes in the outstanding loss reserves, incurred but not reported reserves, reinsurance balances recoverable and loss reserve discount. Loss adjustment expenses are charged to income as they are incurred and consist mainly of external costs relating to the negotiation and settlement of claims. Loss and LAE Reserves and Reinsurance Balances Recoverable The Company s loss and LAE reserves are comprised of outstanding loss and LAE reserves and incurred but not reported loss and LAE reserves. The outstanding loss reserves comprise estimated losses based on reports provided by the ceding companies. The incurred but not reported reserves are based upon management's best estimate of the ultimate cost of settlement of losses that may be incurred by the Company, in accordance with the recommendations of an actuary. 9

Outstanding loss and LAE reserves and incurred but not reported loss and LAE reserves reflect management's best estimate of future amounts needed to pay claims and related settlement costs with respect to insured events which have occurred, including events that have not been reported to the Company. In many cases, significant periods of time, ranging up to several years or more, may elapse between the occurrence of an insured loss, the reporting of the loss to the Company and the Company's payment of that loss. As part of the process in determining the Company's outstanding loss and LAE reserves and incurred but not reported loss and LAE reserves, actuarial models are used that analyze industry data and consider the impact of current developments and trends, such as trends in claims severity and frequency and claims settlement trends. Also considered are legal developments, regulatory trends, legislative developments, and changes in social attitudes and economic conditions. Management believes that its outstanding loss reserves and incurred but not reported loss and LAE reserves are fairly stated as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. However, estimating the ultimate claims liability is necessarily a complex and judgmental process inasmuch as the amounts are based on management's informed estimates, assumptions and judgments using data currently available. As additional experience and data becomes available regarding claims payment and reporting patterns, legal and legislative developments, judicial theories of liability, the impact of regulatory trends, changes in social attitudes and economic conditions, the estimates are revised accordingly. If the Company's ultimate losses prove to differ substantially from the amounts recorded at December 31, 2012 and, the related adjustments could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Amounts recoverable from reinsurers are estimated in a manner consistent with the reserving methodology adopted in the estimation of the outstanding loss reserves and the incurred but not reported reserves and the related reinsurance arrangements. Future adjustments to the amounts recorded resulting from the continual review process, as well as differences between estimates and ultimate settlements, will be recorded in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) when such adjustments become known and are estimable. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition. Fixed Maturity Securities Fixed maturity securities have been classified as available for sale and are reported at fair value, adjusted for any other-than-temporary decline in fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a net amount in accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific identification basis. 10

The Company reviews fixed maturity securities in its investment portfolio on a periodic basis to specifically identify individual securities that have incurred an other-than-temporary decline in fair value below cost or amortized cost. This review encompasses, among other things, recent issuer activities, such as defaults, quarterly earnings announcements, and other pertinent financial news for the issuer, recent developments and economic outlooks for particular industries, rating agency actions, and the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than cost or amortized cost. When management's review identifies an other-than-temporary impairment, it compares its projected discounted cash flows to the amortized cost in order to determine the credit related portion of the impairment, which is recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The non-credit portion of the other-than-temporary impairment relative to all other factors is recorded through accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, management also considers whether it has the intent to sell a particular security or whether it is more likely than not the Company has the ability to hold the security to recovery. Management does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company has the ability to hold these securities to recovery. Equity Securities, Hedge, Private Equity and Real Estate Funds All equity securities, hedge, private equity and real estate funds are classified as availablefor-sale and are carried at fair value with net unrealized holding gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company reviews all equity securities, hedge, private equity and real estate funds in its investment portfolio on a periodic basis to specifically identify individual securities that have incurred an other-than-temporary decline in fair value below cost. This review encompasses, among other things, recent issuer activities, such as defaults, quarterly earnings announcements, and other pertinent financial news for the issuer, recent developments and economic outlooks for particular industries, rating agency actions, and the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than cost. When management s review identifies an other-than-temporary impairment in the valuation of a security, a realized loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). 11

Investments in Real Estate Investments in real estate, including related improvements, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, when the real estate is placed in use. No depreciation expense has been recorded for December 31, 2012 or 2011 as the investments were substantially not in use during 2012 or 2011. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective leases. The Company classifies a property as held-forsale if it commits to a plan to sell a property within one year and actively markets the property in its current condition for a price that is reasonable in comparison to its estimated fair value. Real estate held-for-sale is stated at the lower of depreciated cost or estimated fair value less expected disposition costs. Real estate is not depreciated while it is classified as held-for-sale. There was no real estate held-for-sale as of December 31, 2012 or 2011. The Company periodically reviews its investments in real estate for impairment and tests properties for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable and the carrying value of the property exceeds its estimated fair value. Properties whose carrying values are greater than their expected future undiscounted cash flows are written down to their estimated fair value, with the impairment loss included in net investment gains (losses). There were no impairment losses recorded during 2012 or 2011. Impairment losses are based upon the estimated fair value of real estate, which is generally computed using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the underlying risks. Equity Method Investments The Company utilizes the equity method of accounting with respect to investments where it possesses the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial policies of the investee. The ability to exercise significant influence is presumed when an investor possesses more than 20% but less than 50% of the voting interests of the investee. This presumption may be overcome based on specific facts and circumstances that demonstrate the ability to exercise significant influence is restricted. In applying the equity method, the Company records its investment at cost in the consolidated balance sheet as equity method investments. Any increase or decrease in the carrying amount subsequent to acquisition is the result of the Company s share of the net earnings or losses and comprehensive income (loss) of the investee as well as distributions received from or contributions to the investee. The Company s share of earnings or loss and comprehensive income (loss) are recorded in the Company s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company reviews its equity method investments for possible impairment taking into account events and circumstances that may have occurred since the prior review, and any impairment is recorded in the Company's consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). 12

A number of investments were transferred into these investment funds by the Company in order that the Starr Principal Holdings, LLC investment professionals could participate in a Carry/Co-Investment Program approved by the Company. The investment funds are accounted for as Limited Partnerships by the Company and are carried at fair value. The Company transferred investments to the investment funds in exchange for a limited partnership interest in these funds of $399,702 at the date of transfer. No realized gain or loss was recognized upon transfer. At December 31, 2012, the net asset value of the Company s interest in the funds was $335,122. 14

At December 31, 2011 there were 28 fixed maturity securities with unrealized losses less than 12 months and 7 fixed maturity securities with unrealized losses greater than 12 months. The determination that a security has incurred an other-than-temporary impairment and the amount of any loss recognized requires the judgment of management and continued review of the Company s investments.

As of December 31, 2012, there were 3 securities classified in equity securities, hedge funds, private equity funds and real estate funds with unrealized losses less than 12 months and 1 security classified in equity securities, hedge funds, private equity funds and real estate funds with an unrealized loss greater than 12 months. At December 31, 2011 there were 4 securities classified in equity securities, hedge funds, private equity funds and real estate funds with unrealized losses less than 12 months and 3 equity securities, hedge funds, private equity funds and real estate funds with unrealized losses greater than 12 months. The determination that a security has incurred an other-than-temporary impairment and the amount of any loss recognized requires the judgment of management and continued review of the Company s investments. The Company performs quarterly reviews of its investments in order to determine whether declines in market value below the amortized cost basis were considered other-than-temporary. For 2012, the Company recorded a loss of $10,658 on its equity investments that were deemed to be an other-than-temporarily impaired. The Company s assessment was based on the issuer s current and expected future financial position, as well as relevant information provided by investment advisors and analysts. The Company's investments are managed in accordance with its investment guidelines established by its Executive Committee and approved by its Board of Directors. The Company's investments potentially expose it to credit risk. The Company's portfolio comprises a diversified holding of debt and equity securities and therefore does not contain significant holdings with any one single issuer. All debt securities are in accordance with the investment guidelines. Management has received Board approval to hold below investment grade securities and will continue to monitor these investments for potential impairment. Market risk exists in that the recorded fair value will fluctuate with changes in fair value. Management has considered the nature of investments in an unrealized loss position, the cause of their impairment, the severity and duration of their impairment and other relevant information available and believes that impairments are temporary in nature. In the opinion of management, the risk of exposure due to market risk is low due to the diversified portfolio. For securities, other than fixed maturity securities, that are in an unrealized loss position management considers such factors as the size of the loss compared to fair value, the commitment period and remaining commitment of the fund, other information from investment managers to determine if the impairment is other-than-temporary, and the Company s ability and intent to hold these securities to recovery. The amortized cost and fair value of fixed maturity securities by contractual maturity as of December 31, 2012 are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because the issuers may have the right to call or prepay certain obligations. Amortized Cost/ Cost Fair Value Within one year $ 10,964 $ 10,977 One to five years 240,760 266,386 Six to ten years 1,099,049 1,218,220 After ten years 35,514 35,619 $ 1,386,287 $ 1,531,202 16

The nature of the Company s investments is as follows: U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government Corporations and Agencies The Company invests in U.S. Treasury obligations and direct obligations of U.S. government agencies.

Income Taxes The Company has received an undertaking from the Bermuda government exempting it from all local income, withholding and capital gains taxes until March 28, 2016. At the present time no such taxes are levied in Bermuda. 20

Certain of the Company s subsidiaries are subject to federal, state or local taxes based upon their countries of incorporation or where they conduct business. Such amounts are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements. 12. Statutory Capital and Surplus Effective April 19, 2007, the Company was registered as a Class 4 insurer under The Bermuda Insurance Act 1978 and related regulations, (the "Act"), which requires that the Company file a statutory financial return and maintain certain measures of solvency and liquidity during the period. As of the Company met the required Minimum General Business Solvency Margin and the required Minimum Liquidity Ratio. The required Minimum General Business Solvency Margin as of was $241,482 and $190,087, respectively. The Company's statutory capital and surplus at those dates was $2,040,375 and $2,102,838, respectively. The Minimum Liquidity Ratio is the ratio of the insurer's relevant assets to its relevant liabilities; the minimum allowable ratio is 75%. The Company's relevant assets as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $1,833,269 and $1,734,007, respectively, and 75% of its relevant liabilities as of were $649,685 and $514,002, respectively. The Minimum Liquidity Ratio was met as of. Distributions to shareholders are restricted to the extent that such a distribution would result in the Company not meeting the required Minimum General Business Solvency Margin or the required Minimum Liquidity Ratio. During the year, the Company distributed certain fixed income securities and cash with a fair value of $130,000 to its shareholder. Accounting practices under the Act vary in some respects from U.S. GAAP. The significant variances between the Act and U.S. GAAP are as follows: a. Under the Act, certain assets designated as nonadmitted assets (principally prepaid expenses and deferred acquisition costs) result in a direct charge to surplus. b. Under the Act, investments in affiliates shall be valued either by the cost method of valuation or the equity method of valuation provided that: if the value arrived at by the use of the equity method of valuation is less than the value arrived at by the cost method of valuation, the value arrived at by the equity method shall be used; the directors shall carry the said investments at a fair value determined in good faith if that value is less than the valuations under the cost method and the equity method of valuation; advances to affiliates shall be carried at fair value determined in good faith; if any amount is in the opinion of the directors uncollectible, that amount shall be deducted. 21

Under U.S. GAAP, investments in affiliates are generally consolidated and the balance sheets and statements of operations of those subsidiaries consolidated with those of the Company. 13. Fair Value Measurements The Company applies the provisions of FASB authoritative accounting guidance which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the "exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches. FASB authoritative accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumption about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows: Level 1 - Fair value measures are based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. The fair value of securities included in this category was based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market. Level 1 assets include listed mutual funds, equities and certain debt securities. Level 2 - Fair value measures are based on observable inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Assets which generally are included in this category may include states, municipalities and political subdivisions fixed maturities, corporate bonds, mortgage backed securities and asset backed securities. Level 3 - Fair value measures are based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and may involve management judgment. Assets included in this category generally include general and limited partnership interests in private equity, real estate, and hedge funds. Level 3 inputs include capital accounts of the Company s interest for partnership interests in various alternative investments including hedge, real estate and private equity funds. The various partnerships are investment companies which record their underlying investments at fair value based on fair value policies established by management of the underlying fund. Fair value policies at the underlying fund generally require the fund to utilize pricing/valuation information, including independent appraisals, from third party sources, however, in some instances current valuation information, for illiquid securities or securities in markets that are not active, may not be available from any third party source or fund management may conclude that the valuations that are available from third party sources are not reliable. In these instances fund management may perform model-based analytical valuations that may be used to value these investments. The Company s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument. 22

The following table provides the fair value measurements of applicable Company financial assets by level within the fair value hierarchy as of. These financial assets are measured on a recurring basis: 2012 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Fixed maturity securities: U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government agencies $ 17,112 $ - $ - $ 17,112 States, political subdivision and foreign government securities - 46,438-46,438 Corporate debt securities - 1,464,065-1,464,065 Other asset-backed securities - 3,587-3,587 Total fixed maturity securities 17,112 1,514,090-1,531,202 Equity securities 183,828 - - 183,828 Hedge funds - - 15,433 15,433 Private equity funds - - 560,419 560,419 Real estate funds - - 39,218 39,218 Total equity securities and hedge, private equity and real estate funds 183,828-615,070 798,898 Total assets measured at fair value $ 200,940 $ 1,514,090 $ 615,070 $ 2,330,100 23
