PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: "The 2003 Purchased Shares were acquired and the 2004 Purchase, the 2005 Purchase, the 2005 Transfer and the Purchase were made by Fairfax for investment purposes and in order for Odyssey Re Holdings Corp.

On August 28, 2006, Fairfax purchased 175,000 Shares from Fairfax Inc. The August 28, 2006 purchase transaction resulted in the removal of OdysseyRe from Fairfax's U.S. consolidated tax group. On December 8, 2006, for internal corporate purposes, ORH Holdings Inc. purchased 6,166,667 Shares from TIG Insurance Group, Inc. for an aggregate purchase price of $204,832,011.07 (equal to the proceeds from the 2006 Secondary Offering of Shares by ORH Holdings Inc.).

The Reporting Persons intend to review, on a continuous basis, various factors related to their direct or indirect investment, as the case may be, in OdysseyRe, including the price and availability of the Shares, subsequent developments affecting OdysseyRe's business, other investment and business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons and general stock market and economic conditions. Based upon these and other factors, the Reporting Persons may decide to purchase additional Shares or may decide in the future to sell all or part of their investment in OdysseyRe; (b) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals to cause OdysseyRe to enter into any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation of OdysseyRe or any of its subsidiaries; (c) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals to cause OdysseyRe or any of its subsidiaries to sell or transfer a material amount of assets; 15 (d) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which would result in a change in the present board of directors or management of OdysseyRe, whether through a change in the number or term of directors or otherwise; (e) The Reporting Persons have no plans to make any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of OdysseyRe; (f) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals to cause OdysseyRe to make any other material change in its business or corporate structure; (g) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals to cause OdysseyRe to change its certificate of incorporation or bylaws or to take other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of OdysseyRe by any person; (h) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals to cause the Shares to be delisted from any securities exchange or cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system; (i) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals to cause the Shares to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act; and (j) The Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals to take any actions similar to those enumerated above."

To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, the following persons beneficially own approximately the following amounts of Shares and have sole voting power and sole dispositive power with respect to such Shares, except that Mr. Griffiths shares voting and dispositive power over 5,000 of such Shares with Fourfourtwo Investments Limited, a company 16 controlled by Mr. Griffiths (in each case the amount of Shares accounts for less than 1% of the total outstanding amount of Shares): JAMES F.

CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: "Except as described herein, none of the Reporting Persons, nor to the best knowledge of each of the Reporting Persons, any person listed in Annex A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K or L has any contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of OdysseyRe, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies other than as described below. OdysseyRe has entered into a registration rights agreement with TIC and ORH Holdings. The registration rights agreement includes rights to require OdysseyRe to register the offer and sale of Shares held by TIC and ORH Holdings on up to three different occasions. Each of TIC and ORH Holdings may also require OdysseyRe to file registration statements on Form S-3. The registration rights agreement also includes the right to require OdysseyRe to include OdysseyRe common stock held by TIC and ORH Holdings in up to three future registration statements that OdysseyRe files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the agreement, OdysseyRe also provides TIC and ORH Holdings with the right to participate in any securities offerings by OdysseyRe in order to maintain their percentage ownership. These rights are subject to various conditions and limitations. Under the registration rights agreement, OdysseyRe will bear all expenses incurred in connection with the registrations, other than any underwriting discounts and commissions. Registration of Shares upon the exercise of these registration rights would result in such Shares becoming freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 17 In relation to the 2006 Secondary Offering, on December 4, 2006, Fairfax Inc. entered into an underwriting agreement with ORH Holdings Inc., OdysseyRe and the underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the "Underwriting Agreement"). Under the terms of such agreement, Fairfax Inc. granted to such underwriters, an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of the Underwriting Agreement, to purchase (at a price, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, of $33.216 per Share) up to 1,350,000 Shares, to cover over-allotments in the 2006 Secondary Offering, if any. Messrs. Andrew A. Barnard, James F. Dowd, Frank B. Bennett, Anthony Griffiths and Brandon W. Sweitzer have been granted stock options to purchase Shares in the amount of 62,500, 15,000, 3,750, 5,000, 5,000, respectively, under the OdysseyRe 2002 Stock Incentive Plan that have vested but which have not been exercised."
