Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation may include forward-looking statements that reflect Alterra’s current views with respect to future events
and financial performance. Statements that include the words “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “project,” “anticipate,”
“will,” “may” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements. All forward-
looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and you should not place
undue reliance on any such statements. 
Alterra believes that these factors include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) the adequacy of loss reserves and the
need to adjust such reserves as claims develop over time; (2) the failure of any of the loss limitation methods employed;
(3) the effects of emerging claims and coverage issues; (4) changes in general economic conditions, including changes in
capital and credit markets; (5) the effect of competition and cyclical trends, including with respect to demand and pricing
in the insurance and reinsurance markets; (6) any lowering or loss of financial ratings; (7) the occurrence of natural or
man-made catastrophic events with a frequency or severity exceeding expectations; (8) the loss of business provided to
Alterra by its major brokers; (9) the effect on Alterra’s investment portfolio of changing financial market conditions
including inflation, interest rates, liquidity and other factors; (10) tax and regulatory changes and conditions; (11) the
integration of Harbor Point Limited or new business ventures Alterra may enter into; and (12) retention of key personnel,
as well as management’s response to any of the aforementioned factors.
The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with
the other cautionary statements that are included herein and elsewhere, including the Risk Factors included in Alterra’s
most recent report on Form 10-K and Form 10-Qs filed subsequent to, and other documents on file with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statements made in this presentation are qualified by these cautionary
statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by Alterra will be realized
or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, Alterra or its business or
operations. Alterra undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a
result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

P&C Sector Offers Tremendous Value Opportunity
P&C stocks are trading at 25 year low price to book multiples
The fundamental environment remains challenging BUT we are
getting closer to the inflection point as. . .
Profitable growth opportunities are tough to find 
Continued historic low interest rates are pressuring investment returns 
Cash flow levels deteriorate
Major industry loss events generate high catastrophe losses
Reserve redundancies at many companies are diminishing
Players beginning to self-assess lines or strategy   
Excess capital positions are managed through aggressive share
repurchase
Attractive time to build positions as low sector valuation levels
provide downside protection
