SCOR : World Trade Center Compensation Settlement: SCOR Will Refer Its Reinsurance Contract With Allianz to Arbitration

Market Wire, May, 2007

Agreements concerning the World Trade Center were signed on 23 May between Silverstein Properties and various insurers, including Allianz. SCOR is a reinsurer of Allianz Global Risks U.S. Insurance on this property & casualty insurance policy.

SCOR considers that the Allianz settlement agreement does not respect the terms and conditions of the Certificate of Reinsurance between SCOR and Allianz. SCOR has already informed Allianz that this settlement exceeds the contractual requirements and contains ex gratia elements.

Under the terms of the clause set out in the Certificate of Reinsurance, SCOR has requested that this case be referred to arbitration.

Information in this communication relating to the Tender Offer include "forward-looking statements", including but not limited to statements that are predictions of or indicate future events, trends, plans or objectives, based on certain assumptions and include any statement which does not directly relate to a historical fact or current fact. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as, without limitation, "anticipate", "assume", "believe", "continue", "estimate", "expect", "foresee", "intend", "may increase" and "may fluctuate" and similar expressions or by future or conditional verbs such as, without limitations, "will", "should", "would" and "could." Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements, because, by their nature, they are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results, on the one hand, to differ from any results expressed or implied by the present communication, on the other hand.
