p.l.c., from 1997 to 1998 and 1998 to 2000 respectively.

He is currently a non-executive Director of Reynolds American Inc ('Reynolds'),
which is listed on the NYSE, Clear Technology Inc and GeoVera Insurance Ltd. The
former two companies are incorporated in the USA and the latter in Bermuda.

Roger Taylor, Chairman of Amlin, said, 'Marty Feinstein was an outstanding CEO
of Farmers, one of the leading US insurers, and we look forward to his
contribution to our Board'.

Other than Mr Feinstein's directorship of Reynolds American Inc, there are no
matters relating to this appointment that are required to be announced under
paragraph 9.6.13R of the Listing Rules.
