Catlin has announced that at a general meeting of the company, held yesterday in Bermuda, the ordinary resolutions set out in the notice of meeting in connection
with the acquisition of Wellington Underwriting were passed.
While Catlin remains confident of completing the acquisition before Christmas, the proximity of the 1 January 2007 renewals season means there are strong
commercial and operational advantages for the enlarged group in combining the businesses, and therefore for Catlin's completing the acquisition, ahead of this
date.
