                             Director's shareholding

Mr Tony Holt, a Director, has informed the Company that on 1 April 2008 he sold
in the market (on the London Stock Exchange) 1,041,737 Amlin ordinary shares
(0.22% of the shares in issue) at a price of 272.70p per share.

Mr Holt has also today exercised executive share options over 97,360 ordinary
shares at an exercise price of 161.77p per share, which he will retain. The
resultant total Amlin ordinary shares held by Mr Holt (direct and in the Share
Incentive Plan) and his wife is now 151,005 shares (0.03%).

Mr Holt has stated to the Company that the principal reason for his recent share
sales, which have now been completed, was the increase in his effective capital
gains tax rate after 5 April 2008 from 10% to 18%. Mr Holt had a substantial
capital gain on his shareholding.
