Report of Independent Auditors

To the Shareholder of Armour Re Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Armour Re Ltd., which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2017, and the related statements ofloss and comprehensive loss, of changes in shareholder's equity and of cash flows for the period from November 20, 2017 (date of incorporation) to December 31, 2017.

Management's responsibility for the f'mancial statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with 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 financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 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 financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the fi nancial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In malting those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company's preparation and fair presentation of the 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 Company'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 financial statements. We be1ieve that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
