LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN Dear Shareholders, It gives me pleasure to present to you the report of the Company’s activities for the financial year ended on December 31, 2012; including its main achievements on all fronts: technical, financial, investment and administrative. Initially, it is imperative to mention the political events that took place in some Arab countries and their adverse repercussions on these countries’ own economies, as well as the regional ones; which were also further affected by the ongoing global economic and financial crisis. Thanks to its executive management’s strategy, following the guidelines of the Board of Directors, we are proud to say that your Company managed to largely reduce the direct negative impact of these circumstances. The Company continues to realize sound financial results; driven by its consistent policy of retaining proper technical, financial and contingency reserves, and its sound selection of secure and profitable investment channels. It is worth mentioning that the reserves are allocated periodically with high professionalism and accuracy, based on historic statistics and advanced actuarial studies. Accordingly, the Company’s most important developments for year 2012 are as follows:

1- The Company’s portfolio attained a 26% growth despite the economic slow-down mentioned above. In addition, the Company started to cede “Takaful” business under its Takaful window and has supported the Arab insurance markets with modern products and services.

2- The Company continued achieving sound investment results whereby the annual

average return reached 6.13%. This is considered a great accomplishment in light of the economic condition prevailing in the world for the past four years, amid low interest rates and the fluctuations of the exchange rates, bonds and stock market.

The Company has additionally contributed in the establishment of a financial assets’ management company, which positive primary results began to show. It has also invested in a health insurance services’ company.

3- The Company's executive management continued to renew and update its organizational structure, via updating the authorities and responsibilities of the heads of departments. External and internal expert personnel were employed in these departments. The management, with the encouragement of the Board, has also developed a comprehensive career development program that included all its employees and through which intensified training has been offered.

The management maintained its development of the financial reports and statements, following the international accounting standards, whereby it underwent a drastic restructuring of the Company’s software in order to upkeep the preparation of advanced financial reports in proper and timely fashion.

4- The Company upheld its B+ stable outlook rating which is a positive indicator on the Company’s position and solvency, in the midst of the above-mentioned economic conditions that affected many companies, and despite the sovereign rating of Lebanon, which acts as a drag to Arab Re’s rating through AM Best.

Finally, I would like to thank our clients for their trust in our Company and their increased cooperation, as well as our Shareholders for their ongoing support to the Company's activities. Additionally, I would like to thank the Board of Directors’ members, as well as the Audit, Sharia, Risk, and Investment Committees, and the management and staff of the Company, for their rewarding efforts, leading to the growth of the Company's business and the increase of its financial solvency.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS for the Financial Year ending on December 31, 2012

Dear Shareholders, The Board of Directors of Arab Reinsurance Company is pleased to submit to you its Annual Report for the period ended December 31, 2012; where you can find details on the technical, financial, investment, and administrative achievements of the Company. You will also find enclosed the audited financial statements; encompassing the balance sheet, the income statement, the changes in shareholders’ equity, and the cash flow statement, together with a summary of the significant accounting policies adopted, as well as other explanatory notes. The reports and statements were prepared in accordance with the international financial reporting standards. The adaptation necessitated a rapid strategic development pertaining to our information technology systems, which enabled the Company to prepare its transparent financial statements with accuracy placing us in line with internationally developed companies. The Company continued to achieve positive results, with a net profit of USD 7.8 million this year. This was attained in spite of the political unstable situation prevailing in some neighboring Arab countries, as well as the worldwide tough economic state that has affected the growth rates in general. The diversified investment portfolio of the Company, geographically and by type, along with the wise and conservative investment policy, has contributed in realizing a good investment return amounting to USD 8 million, with an average rate of 6.13%. The Company invested, in collaboration with an expert entity, in the establishment of a financial assets' management company. It has also invested in a health insurance services’ company. Both entities yielded very good results, which reflected positively on the results of our Company. On another note, and in spite of the economic and political situation aforementioned, the Company’s business portfolio grew to USD 72.6 million, compared to USD 57.5 million in year 2011, which triggered a positive effect on the results as a whole. This achievement is a reflection of the successful underwriting policy adopted by the Company, and as advised by the Board of Directors. The said policy stipulates to increase the participation in profitable Arab business, to expand in some foreign markets, and to intensify marketing efforts through market visits, product development and other services rendered with high professionalism, in accordance with the market requirements and conditions. On this occasion, the Company is studying the financial and practical possibility of opening a branch/representative or administrative office outside Lebanon.

The Company was assigned a B+ (stable outlook) rating by AM Best rating agency. This is a positive indicator in light of the economic state as a whole, which affected the business portfolio and results of many companies. Added to this is the rating agency’s inability to forgo the current sovereign rating of Lebanon. In fact, the executive management is deploying all efforts to improve the Company’s rating level, by increasing and diversifying our business portfolio, and by achieving better technical results, while maintaining a good and adequate level of solvency. The Company upheld its persistence in developing; diversifying and training its human resources. Its mission is to develop the job descriptions and processes while providing the staff with ample training opportunities. This enhances the staff’s competence, their technical capabilities and their job performance, while improving the work environment by strengthening human relations and enriching the performances and loyalty levels. Finally, we would like to express to our clients and to our shareholders and Board members our sincere gratitude and our appreciation for their support and cooperation. We would also like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to the labors and admirable performance of our staff, may God bless all their efforts and ours. Meanwhile, we are pleased to submit to you our audited financial statements relating to our Company's results for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to the audited financial statements relating to year 2011 results.

Main indicators and developments of the Company’s activities in year 2012

First: Underwriting Activities A. Gross Written Premiums

The gross written premiums at the end of the year amounted to USD 72.6 million, compared to USD 57.5 million in the previous financial year; an increase of 26.1%. This increase is because the Company is accepting new business and introducing new products, as well as accepting the takaful insurance business. 67% of these premiums emanated from the Arab region. The following table shows the GWP for each class of business:

B. Retained Premiums

The Company’s retention levels differ from one line of business to the other; however, in most cases its retention is protected by appropriate Excess of Loss covers. Retained premiums in all classes during the period under consideration amounted to USD 57.1 million, representing 79% of the Gross Written Premiums, compared to USD 48.2 million in the previous year, which represented 84% of the Gross Written Premiums. The increase in retention level this year is due to the increase in the accepted business. However, the decrease in retention level is a result of the increase in our retrocessionaires’ shares, whilst continuing to re-visit the adequacy of its excess of loss covers that protects it from large losses as well as catastrophic events. C. Commissions & Acquisition Costs

This section includes the original commissions, profit commissions, reinsurance brokerages and other reinsurance related deductions. The total amount paid during the period under review amounted to USD 19.7 million, compared to USD 15.1 million in the previous year. The percentage of acquisition costs this year was equivalent to 27% of GWP, with a minor difference than prior year equivalent to 1%. This low level is maintained due to the inward's business results and increase acceptance of non-proportional covers, which are characterized by lower commissions.

D. Incurred Losses

The total incurred losses during the year under consideration amounted to USD 41.4 million, compared to USD 38.3 million in the previous year, representing an increase of 8%. The Company’s net retained loss ratio was 65.1% this year, compared to 67.7% last year. This decrease is due to the increase in net earned premiums, and the absence of major losses as last year.

E. Results of Financial Year

In 2012, net profits amounted to USD 7.8 million, compared to USD 5.5 million in the previous year, representing 10.7% of the gross written premiums, compared to 9.5% in year 2011. The percentage of these results from the net written premiums is equal to 13.6% this year, compared to 11.4% in the previous year.

F. Combined Loss Ratio

The Combined Loss Ratio for this year reached 97.5% compared to 100.3%, despite the maintained administrative and operational expenses. This is due to the growth in business portfolio and decrease in incurred claims this year.

Second: Investments Invested funds during this year amounted on average to USD 131 million, compared to USD 116 million in the previous year. This development is due mainly to the decisions of the Board of Directors to raise gradually the Company's capital, which reached USD 75 million at the end of last year. Moreover, the return on investment this year amounted to USD 8 million; thus, effectively to what was budgeted at the beginning of the financial year and which is equivalent to USD 8.2 million, despite the economic difficulties, and the decline in international interest rates. This was possible due to our rational and conservative investment policy and its diversification geographically and by type; which decreased our investment and financial risks. The above was accomplished while upholding our commitment to our clients and our policy to prompt claim payments. It shall be noted that the invested funds include cash at banks, term deposits in banks, and nonresident financial institutions, in addition to investments in securities and fixed assets. Third: General & Administrative Expenses The General and Administrative expenses amounted this year to USD 4.6 million, representing 6.3% of the gross written premiums, compared to 7.9% in the previous year. The expenses' rate from the earned and retained premiums is equivalent to 8%, compared to 9.5% in the previous year. This regression is due to the increase in business portfolio, without a decrease in the general and administrative expenses. Fourth: Allotments of Financial Year Result The Board of Directors, in its meeting held on February 28, 2013, decided to distribute the net income of the financial year ended December 31, 2012, subject to the approval of the General Assembly of the Company’s Shareholders, as follows: US Dollars Net income for the year 7,762,651 Proposed allotments: 1- Transfer to capital reserve at 10% 776,265 2- Distribution of dividends at 5% of paid up capital as at December 31, 2012 as a first payment according to Company’s by-laws 3,750,000 3- Distribution of dividends at 3% of paid up capital as at December 31, 2012 as an additional payment 2,250,000 Total proposed allotments 6,776,265 Net balance (after proposed allotments) to be transferred to the retained earnings accounts 986,386

- 11 -

According to Article 60 of the Company’s by-laws, 10% of the annual net income should be transferred to capital reserve until the total of this reserve becomes equal to the Company’s capital.
