We have made statements in this press release that are forward-looking statements

within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including the Private Securities

Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements about the  expansion of property,

engineering and aviation portfolios. You can identify forward-looking statements by

the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plan," "believe," "expect," "anticipate,"

"intend," "outlook," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "target," "continue," "could," "may,"

"might," "will," "possible," "potential," "predict," "should," "would," "seeks," "likely,"

and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean

that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements are based on

the current expectations of the management of Sirius Group and speak only as of the date

of this document. There can be no assurance that future developments will be those

that have been anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks,

uncertainties or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be

materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, Sirius Group's exposure to

unpredictable catastrophic and casualty events and unexpected accumulations of attritional

losses; increased competition from existing insurers and reinsurers and from alternative capital

providers, such as insurance-linked funds and collateralized special purpose insurers;

decreased demand for Sirius Group's insurance or reinsurance products, consolidation

and cyclical changes in the insurance and reinsurance industry; the inherent uncertainty

of estimating loss and loss adjustment expenses reserves, including asbestos and

environmental reserves, and the possibility that such reserves may be inadequate to cover

Sirius Group's ultimate liability for losses; a decline in Sirius Group's operating subsidiaries'

ratings with rating agencies; the exposure of Sirius Group's investments to interest rate,

credit, equity risks and market volatility, which may limit Sirius Group's net income and

may affect the adequacy of its capital and liquidity; the impact of various risks associated with

transacting business in foreign countries, including foreign currency exchange-rate risk and

political risks on investments in, and revenues from, Sirius Group's operations outside the U.S.;

the possibility that Sirius Group may become subject to additional onerous governmental or

regulatory requirements or fail to comply with applicable regulatory and solvency requirements;

Sirius Group's significant deferred tax assets may become materially impaired as a result of

insufficient taxable income or a reduction in applicable corporate tax rates or other change

in applicable tax law; a decrease in the fair value of Global A&H and/or Sirius Group's intangible

assets may result in future impairments; the limited liquidity and trading of Sirius Group's

securities; CMIG International Holding Pte. Ltd.'s status as a controlling shareholder,

including its affiliates' liquidity issues; Sirius Group's status as a publicly traded company,

foreign private issuer and controlled company; and other risks identified in Sirius Group's

Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, subsequent Quarterly

Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions

made by the management of Sirius Group prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material

respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Except as required by

applicable law or regulation, we disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any

forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, or new

information, data or methods, future events or other circumstances after the date of this release.
