Enstar Group Limited ("Enstar") entered into a Subscription Agreement on July 23, 2018 by and among Evergreen Parent, L.P. ("Evergreen"), Enstar and, for certain limited purposes set forth therein, K-Z Evergreen, LLC and Trident Pine Acquisition LP ("Trident Pine").  Evergreen is an entity formed by private equity funds managed by Stone Point Capital LLC ("Stone Point") and the Karfunkel-Zyskind Family that intends to acquire approximately 45% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. ("AmTrust") that the Karfunkel-Zyskind Family and certain of its affiliates and related parties do not presently own or control. The transaction was approved by AmTrust's stockholders on June 21, 2018, and is expected to close during the second half of 2018, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approval by regulatory authorities.
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, and subject to the conditions therein, Enstar or one or more of its controlled, majority-owned affiliates, agreed to purchase equity in Evergreen in an aggregate amount of $200 million. The equity interest will be in the form of three separate classes of equity securities issued at the same price and in the same proportion as the equity interest to be purchased by Trident Pine.  Following the closing the transaction, Enstar is expected to own approximately 7.4% of the capital units and 6.2% of the indirect voting rights of Evergreen.  Among other conditions, the closing under the Subscription Agreement is contingent on the closing of Evergreen's transaction with respect to AmTrust.
Through several private transactions occurring from May 2012 to July 2012 and an additional private transaction that closed in May 2018, investment funds managed by Stone Point have acquired an aggregate of 1,635,986 of Enstar's voting ordinary shares (which constitutes approximately 9.1% of Enstar's outstanding voting ordinary shares). On November 6, 2013, Enstar appointed James D. Carey to its Board of Directors. Mr. Carey is the sole member of an entity that is one of four general partners of the entities serving as general partners for the Stone Point funds invested in Enstar, is a member of the investment committees of such general partners, and is a member and senior principal of Stone Point. Trident Pine is managed by Stone Point and Mr. Carey is an officer and / or director of certain entities affiliated with Trident Pine that were formed to hold the investment in AmTrust.
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of Enstar and its management team regarding the transaction contemplated by the Subscription Agreement, as well as the related transaction between Evergreen and AmTrust.

Enstar undertakes no obligation to update any written or oral forward-looking statements or publicly announce any updates or revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein, to reflect any change in its expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, except as required by law.
