21.1.4 AMOUNT OF CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES, EXCHANGEABLE SECURITIES OR SECURITIES WITH<br />

SUBSCRIPTION WARRANTS<br />

In the context of a contingent capital arrangement program, SCOR issued 9,521,424 warrants (“Warrants”) on 17<br />

December 2010 to UBS, each warrant committing UBS to subscribe for two new SCOR shares (maximum amount of EUR<br />

150 million - including issuance premium available per tranche of EUR 75 million each - including issuance premium) when<br />

the aggregated amount of the estimated ultimate net losses resulting from eligible natural catastrophes incurred by the<br />

Group (in its capacity as an insurer/reinsurer) reaches certain contractual thresholds in any given calendar year between 1<br />

January 2011 and 31 December 2013 or if no drawdown already took place in the context of the agreement and SCOR’s<br />

share price drops below EUR 10.<br />

On 5 July 2011, SCOR drew EUR 75 million under the contingent capital facility due to the exceptional first quarter natural<br />

catastrophe events. UBS exercised the number of warrants required for the issuance and subscription by it of new SCOR<br />

shares in an aggregate amount of EUR 75 million and informed SCOR that it had placed the corresponding shares with<br />

investors in a private placement.<br />

SCOR issued 4,250,962 new ordinary shares on 11 July 2011 at an issuance price of EUR 17.643 per share (the exercise<br />

price of the warrants). These shares have been subscribed in full by UBS.<br />

The tranche not triggered had no impact on the dilutive earning per share, as the related increase in capital may never take<br />

place.<br />

On 16 May 2012, SCOR signed a new natural catastrophe financial coverage facility in the form of a contingent capital<br />

equity line with UBS with the issuance of Warrants. The entire shares issued on 16 May 2012 have been fully subscribed by<br />

UBS. This new facility is an extension of its existing 2010 contingent capital equity line. Under this new equity line, SCOR<br />

benefits from an additional EUR 75 million financial coverage, thereby increasing its existing contingent capital equity line<br />

from EUR 75 million to EUR 150 million.<br />
