ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
This prospectus is part of an automatically effective registration statement that Arch Capital, Arch-U.S. and Arch Finance (collectively, the “issuers”) have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) utilizing a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf process, each of the issuers may sell securities described in this prospectus, and selling shareholders may sell Arch Capital common shares, from time to time in one or more offerings with prices and other terms to be determined. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities that an issuer and/or selling shareholders may offer. This prospectus does not contain all of the information set forth in the registration statement as permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC. For additional information regarding the issuers and the offered securities, please refer to the registration statement. Each time an issuer or one or more selling shareholders sells securities, we will file a prospectus supplement with the SEC that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. The prospectus supplement may also add, update and change information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. To the extent that any statement we make in a prospectus supplement is inconsistent with the statements made in this prospectus, the statement made in this prospectus will be deemed modified or superseded by the statement made in such prospectus supplement. You should read this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and any applicable pricing supplement and free writing prospectus, together with additional information incorporated by reference into this prospectus as described under the headings “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation of Documents by Reference” before you invest in our securities.
None of the issuers has authorized anyone to give any information or make any representation about an issuer that is different from, or in addition to, that contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement or any free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of the issuers of any securities or to which the offerors of any securities have referred you. Therefore, if anyone does give you information of this sort, you should not rely on it. The issuers take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. We are not making an offer or these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted. If you are in a jurisdiction where offers to exchange or sell, or solicitations of offers to exchange or purchase, the securities offered by this document or the solicitation of proxies is unlawful, or if you are a person to whom it is unlawful to direct these types of activities, then the offer presented in this prospectus does not extend to you. You should not assume that the information contained in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement or in any free writing prospectus is accurate as of any date other than their respective dates. This prospectus contains summaries of certain provisions contained in some of the documents described herein, but reference is made to the actual documents for complete information. All of
1


the summaries are qualified in their entirety by the actual documents. Copies of some of the documents referred to herein have been filed, will be filed or will be incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and you may obtain copies of those documents as described below under the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

In addition to those risk factors, there may be additional risks and uncertainties of which management is not aware or focused on or that management deems immaterial. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. In addition, new risks may emerge at any time, and we cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Except as may otherwise be described in the prospectus supplement relating to an offering of securities, the net proceeds from the sale of the securities included in this prospectus will be used for general corporate purposes.

DESCRIPTION OF ARCH CAPITAL SHARE CAPITAL
The authorized share capital of Arch Capital consists of 1,800,000,000 common shares, par value U.S. $0.0011 per share, and 50,000,000 preference shares, par value U.S. $0.01 per share.
Common Shares
General
The following description of Arch Capital’s common shares is a summary. This summary is not complete and is subject to the complete text of applicable laws and Arch Capital’s memorandum of association and bye-laws.
Holders of the common shares have no preemptive, redemption, conversion or sinking fund rights. Subject to the voting restrictions described below, holders of common shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of holders of common shares and do not have any cumulative voting rights. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of Arch Capital, the holders of common shares are entitled to share equally and ratably in the assets of Arch Capital, if any, remaining after the payment of all debts and liabilities of Arch Capital and the liquidation preference of any outstanding preference shares. All outstanding common shares are fully paid and non-assessable. The board of directors of Arch Capital, which we refer to as “the board,” is permitted to authorize the issuance of additional common shares. Issuances of common shares are subject to the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Global Select Market or other organizations on whose systems Arch Capital’s common shares may then be quoted or listed.
Transfer Agent
American Stock Transfer & Trust Company is the transfer agent and registrar of Arch Capital’s common shares.
2


Dividends
Holders of Arch Capital’s common shares are entitled to participate equally in dividends when the board declares dividends on common shares out of funds legally available for dividends. The rights of holders of Arch Capital’s common shares to receive dividends are subject to the preferences of holders of Arch Capital’s preference shares, including Arch Capital’s issued and outstanding preference shares, which require that no dividends may be paid on or with respect to Arch Capital’s common shares prior to the declaration and payment of a dividend with respect to such preference shares.
Liquidation Rights
In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of Arch Capital, the holders of common shares have a right to a ratable portion of assets remaining after the payment of all debts and liabilities of Arch Capital, if any, and the liquidation preference of any outstanding preference shares, plus any declared and unpaid dividends thereon, before any distribution is made on any common shares.
Voting Limitation
Under Arch Capital’s bye-laws, if the votes conferred directly or indirectly or by attribution, by Arch Capital’s shares directly or indirectly or constructively owned (within the meaning of section 958 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) by any U.S. person (as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) would otherwise represent more than 9.9% of the voting power of all shares entitled to vote generally at an election of directors, the votes conferred by such shares or such U.S. person will be reduced by whatever amount is necessary so that after any such reduction the votes conferred by the shares of such person will constitute 9.9% of the total voting power of all shares entitled to vote generally at an election of directors; provided that, with respect to certain institutional funds, votes shall be reduced in shares held directly by such funds only if and to the extent that reductions in the vote of other shares do not result in satisfaction of the 9.9% threshold and such reduction shall not be effective on or after the date on which such institutional fund reasonably objects in writing.
There may be circumstances in which the votes conferred on a U.S. person are reduced to less than 9.9% as a result of the operation of bye-law 45 because of shares that may be attributed to that person under the Code.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Arch Capital’s bye-laws described above, after having applied such provisions as best as they consider reasonably practicable, the board may make such final adjustments to the aggregate number of votes conferred directly or indirectly or by attribution by the shares directly or indirectly or constructively owned by any U.S. person that they consider fair and reasonable in all the circumstances to ensure that such votes represent 9.9% of the aggregate voting power of the votes conferred by all Arch Capital’s shares entitled to vote generally at an election of directors.
In order to implement bye-law 45, we will assume that all shareholders are U.S. persons unless we receive assurances satisfactory to us that they are not U.S. persons.
Preference Shares
General
The following summary of terms of Arch Capital’s preference shares is not complete. You should refer to the provisions of Arch Capital’s memorandum of association and bye-laws and the terms of each class or series of the preference shares which will be filed with the SEC at or prior to the time of issuance of such class or series of preference shares and described in the applicable prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement may also state that any of the terms set forth herein are inapplicable to such series of preference shares.
Arch Capital’s bye-laws allow the board to authorize the issuance of preference shares in one or more series, and may fix the rights and preferences of those shares, including as to dividends, voting (which will be subject to the limitations described above under “Common Shares—Voting Limitation”), redemption, conversion rights and otherwise.
Issuances of preference shares are subject to the applicable rules of the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange or other organizations on whose systems Arch Capital’s preference shares may then be quoted or listed.
3


Depending upon the terms of preference shares established by the board, any or all series of preference shares could have preferences over the common shares with respect to dividends and other distributions and upon liquidation of Arch Capital. Issuance of any such shares with voting powers, or issuance of additional shares of common shares, would dilute the voting power of the outstanding common shares.
Terms
The specific terms of each series of preference shares offered pursuant to any prospectus supplement will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement related to such series of preference shares.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
To the extent that this prospectus is used by any selling shareholder to resell any Arch Capital common shares, information with respect to the selling shareholder will be contained in a supplement to this prospectus.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We or selling shareholders may sell the securities:
•    through underwriters or dealers;
•    through agents;
•    directly to purchasers; or
•    through a combination of any such methods of sale.
Any underwriter, dealer or agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). If such underwriters, dealers or agents were deemed to be underwriters, they may be subject to statutory liabilities under the Securities Act.The prospectus supplement relating to any offering of securities by us or any selling shareholders will set forth its offering terms, including the name or names of any underwriters, the name or names of the selling shareholders, if any, the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds to us from such sale, the expenses of the offering, any over-allotment or other options under which the underwriters may purchase additional securities from us or any selling shareholders, any underwriting discounts, commissions and other items constituting underwriters’ compensation, any public offering price, any discount or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers and any securities exchanges on which the securities may be listed. Only underwriters so named in the prospectus supplement are deemed to be underwriters in connection with the securities offered by us or any selling shareholders within this prospectus.
If underwriters are used in the sale, they will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell them from time to time in one or more transactions, at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, or at negotiated prices. The securities may be offered to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more of such firms. Unless otherwise set forth in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions precedent and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the offered securities if any are purchased. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or real-lowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.
Any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities in respect of which this prospectus is delivered will be named, and any commissions payable by us or any selling shareholders to the agent will be set forth, in the accompanying prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.
If so indicated in the prospectus supplement, we will authorize underwriters, dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain specified institutions to purchase securities from us or any selling shareholders at the public offering price set forth in the accompanying prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. These contracts will be subject to any conditions set forth in the accompanying prospectus supplement and the prospectus supplement will set forth the commission payable for solicitation of these con-tracts. The underwriters and other persons soliciting these contracts will have no responsibility for the validity or performance of any such contracts.
Any underwriter may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum price. Syndicate-covering or other short-covering transactions involve purchases of the securities, either through exercise of the over-allotment option or in the open market after the distribution is completed, to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities
7


originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a stabilizing or covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”) provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement, as well as the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any accompanying prospectus,or any other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of us may include forward- looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in or incorporated by reference in this prospectus are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, for purposes of the PSLRA or otherwise, can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe” or “continue” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature or their negative or variations or similar terminology.
Forward-looking statements involve our current assessment of risks and uncertainties. Actual events and results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements. Important factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements are discussed in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.
All subsequent written and oral forward‑looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.

LEGAL MATTERS
Certain legal matters with respect to the securities will be passed upon for the issuers by White & Case LLP, New York, New York. Certain legal matters with respect to the securities under the laws of Bermuda will be passed upon for us by Conyers Dill & Pearman Limited, Hamilton, Bermuda.
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The financial statements and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting (which is included in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting) incorporated in this prospectus by reference to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Arch Capital for the year ended December 31, 2022, have been so incorporated in reliance on the report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting.
With respect to the unaudited financial information of Arch Capital for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, incorporated by reference in this prospectus, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP reported that they have applied limited procedures in accordance with professional standards for a review of such information. However, their separate reports dated May 4, 2023 and August 2, 2023, incorporated by reference herein state that they did not audit and they do not express an opinion on that unaudited financial information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on their reports on such information should be restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 for their reports on the unaudited financial information because these reports are not a “report” or a “part” of the registration statement prepared or certified by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Act.
ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES UNDER UNITED STATES FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS
We are a Bermuda company. In addition, certain of our directors and officers, as well as certain of the experts named in this prospectus, reside outside the United States, and all or a substantial portion of our assets and their assets are located outside the United States. Therefore, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon those persons or to recover against us or those persons on judgments of courts in the United States, including judgments based on civil liabilities provisions of the United States federal securities laws. However, investors may serve Arch Capital with process in the United States with respect to actions against us arising out of or in connection with violations of United States federal securities law relating to offers and sales of securities covered by this prospectus by serving National Registered Agents, Inc., 440 9th Avenue, 5th Floor, New York, New York 10001, its United States agent irrevocably appointed for that purpose.
We have been advised by Conyers Dill & Pearman Limited, our Bermuda counsel, that the United States and Bermuda do not currently have a treaty providing for reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters. We also have been advised by Conyers Dill & Pearman Limited that there is doubt as to whether the courts of Bermuda would enforce (1) judgments of United States courts based on the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws obtained in actions against us or our directors and officers, and (2) original actions brought in Bermuda against us or our officers and directors based solely upon the United States federal securities laws. A Bermuda court may, however, impose civil liability on us or our directors or officers in a suit brought in the Supreme Court of Bermuda; provided that the facts alleged constitute or give rise to a cause of action under Bermuda law. Certain remedies available under the laws of U.S. jurisdictions, including certain remedies under the U.S. federal securities laws, would not be allowed in Bermuda courts to the extent that they are contrary to public policy.

Item 17.        Undertakings.
(a)    Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
    (1)    To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
    (i)    to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
    (ii)    to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
    (iii)    to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by such registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
    (2)    That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
    (3)    To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
    (4)    That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
    (i)    each prospectus filed by such registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
    (ii)    each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof;

provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
II-4


    (5)    That, for the purpose of determining liability of such registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, each of the undersigned registrants undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of such undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, such undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
    (i)    any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of such undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
    (ii)    any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of such undersigned registrant or used or referred to by such undersigned registrant;
    (iii)    the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about such undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of such undersigned registrant; and
    (iv)    any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by such undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(b)    Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of such registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)    Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the SEC under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.
(d)    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of any registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, each registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by such registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of such registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, such registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Dears Sirs,

Re: Arch Capital Group Ltd. (the “Company”)

We have acted as special Bermuda legal counsel to the Company in connection with a registration statement on form S-3 (Registration No. 333- ) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on 15 November 2023 (the "Registration Statement", which term does not include any other document or agreement whether or not specifically referred to therein or attached as an exhibit or schedule thereto) relating to the shelf registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Securities Act") of (i) common shares, par value US$0.0011 each of the Company ("Common Shares"), (ii) preference shares, par value US$0.01 each of the Company ("Preference Shares" and, together with Common Shares, "Equity Securities", which term includes any common shares or preference shares to be issued pursuant to the conversion, exchange or exercise of any other Securities), (iii) unsecured senior debt securities of the Company ("Senior Debt Securities"), (iv) unsecured senior subordinated debt securities of the Company ("Subordinated Debt Securities" and, together with Senior Debt Securities, "Debt Securities"), (v) depositary shares of the Company representing Common Shares or Preference Shares (“Depositary Shares”), (vi) warrants to purchase Common Shares, Preference Shares or Debt Securities (collectively, the “Warrants”), (vii) share purchase contracts (“Contracts”), (viii) share purchase units (“Units”), (ix) preferred stock, par value U.S.$0.01 each of Arch Capital Group (U.S.) Inc. (“Arch-U.S.”) (the “Arch-U.S. Preferred Stock”), guaranteed by the Company (the “Arch-U.S. Preferred Stock Guarantee”), (x) unsecured senior debt securities of Arch-U.S. (“Arch-U.S. Senior Debt Securities”), guaranteed by the Company (the “Arch-U.S. Senior Debt Securities Guarantee”), (xi) unsecured subordinated debt securities of Arch-U.S. (“Arch-U.S. Subordinated Debt Securities” and, together with the Arch-U S. Senior Debt Securities, the “Arch-U.S. Debt Securities”), guaranteed by the Company (the “Arch-U.S. Subordinated Debt Securities Guarantee”) and (xii) unsecured senior debt securities of Arch Capital Finance LLC (“Arch Finance Debt Securities”), guaranteed by the Company (the “Arch Finance Debt Securities Guarantee” and, together with the Arch-U.S. Preferred
1



Stock Guarantee, the Arch-U.S. Senior Debt Securities Guarantee and the Arch-U.S. Subordinated Debt Securities Guarantee, the “Guarantees”) (the securities referred to in items (i) through (xii) above are herein sometimes collectively referred to as, the "Securities").

1.DOCUMENTS REVIEWED

For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined a copy of the Registration Statement. We have also reviewed:

1.1.     copies of the memorandum of association and the bye-laws of the Company (together, the “Constitutional Documents”), each certified by the Secretary of the Company on 14 November 2023;
1.2.    copies of minutes of a meeting of its directors held on 10 November 2023 (the "Resolutions") certified by the Secretary of the Company on 14 November 2023; and

1.3.    such other documents and made such enquiries as to questions of law as we have deemed necessary in order to render the opinion set forth below.

2.ASSUMPTIONS

We have assumed:

2.1.    the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures and the conformity to the originals of all copies (whether or not certified) examined by us and the authenticity and completeness of the originals from which such copies were taken;

2.2.    that where a document has been examined by us in draft form, it will be or has been executed and/or filed in the form of that draft, and where a number of drafts of a document have been examined by us all changes thereto have been marked or otherwise drawn to our attention;

2.3.    The accuracy and completeness of all factual representations made in the         Registration Statement and other documents reviewed by us;

2.4.    that the Resolutions were passed at one or more duly convened, constituted and quorate meetings, or by unanimous written resolutions, remain in full force and effect and have not been, and will not be, rescinded or amended;

2.5.    that the Company will issue the Securities in furtherance of its objects as set out in its memorandum of association;

2.6.     that the Constitutional Documents will not be amended in any manner that would affect the opinions expressed herein;
2




2.7.     that there is no provision of the law of any jurisdiction, other than Bermuda, which would have any implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein;

2.8.     that the Company will have sufficient authorised capital to effect the issue of any of the Equity Securities at the time of issuance, whether as a principal issue or on the conversion, exchange or exercise of any Securities;

2.9.     that the Company's shares will be listed on an appointed stock exchange, as defined in the Companies Act 1981, as amended (the "Companies Act"), and the consent to the issue and free transfer of the Securities given by the Bermuda Monetary Authority as of 23 April 2004 will not have been revoked or amended at the time of issuance of any Securities;

2.10.     that the form and terms of any and all Securities (including, without limitation, the designation, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of Preference Shares) or other securities (or other obligations, rights, currencies, commodities or other subject matter) comprising the same or subject thereto (in the case of the Warrants and Units), the issuance and sale thereof by the Company, and the Company’s incurrence and performance of its obligations thereunder or in respect thereof (including, without limitation, its obligations under any related agreement, indenture or supplement thereto) in accordance with the terms thereof will not violate the Constitutional Documents nor any applicable law, regulation, order or decree in Bermuda;

2.11.    that all necessary corporate action will be taken to authorise and approve any issuance of Securities (including, if Preference Shares are to be issued, all necessary corporate action to establish one or more series of Preference Shares and fix the designation, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof), the terms of the offering thereof and related matters, and that the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement and, if Debt Securities are to be issued, the applicable indenture and any applicable supplements thereto, will be duly approved, executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company and all other parties thereto;

2.12.    that the applicable purchase, underwriting or similar agreement, any Debt Security, any indenture and any supplement thereto and any other agreement or other document relating to any Security will be valid and binding in accordance with its terms pursuant to its governing law;

2.13.    that the issuance and sale of and payment for the Securities will be in accordance with the applicable purchase, underwriting or similar agreement duly approved by the Board of Directors, the Registration Statement (including the prospectus set forth therein and any applicable supplement thereto) and, if Debt Securities are to be issued, the applicable indenture and any applicable supplements thereto;

3



2.14. that, upon the issue of any Equity Securities, the Company will receive consideration for the full issue price thereof which shall be equal to at least the par value thereof; and

2.15.    that the Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Part III of the Companies Act entitled "Prospectuses and Public Offers".

3.     QUALIFICATIONS

3.1.    The obligations of the Company in connection with any Security and any indenture or other agreement or document relating thereto:

(a)will be subject to the laws from time to time in effect relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, possessory liens, rights of set off, reorganisation, amalgamation, merger, moratorium, bribery, corruption, money laundering, terrorist financing, proliferation financing or any other laws or legal procedures, whether of a similar nature or otherwise, generally affecting the rights of creditors as well as applicable international sanctions;

(b)will be subject to statutory limitation of the time within which proceedings may be brought;

(c)will be subject to general principles of equity and, as such, specific performance and injunctive relief, being equitable remedies, may not be available;

(d)may not be given effect to by a Bermuda court if and to the extent they constitute the payment of an amount which is in the nature of a penalty; and

(e)may not be given effect by a Bermuda court to the extent that they are to be performed in a jurisdiction outside Bermuda and such performance would be illegal under the laws of that jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any contractual submission to the jurisdiction of specific courts, a Bermuda court has inherent discretion to stay or allow proceedings in the Bermuda courts.

3.2.    "Non-assessability" is not a legal concept under Bermuda law, but when we describe the Common Shares and/or Preference Shares herein as being "non-assessable" we mean, subject to any contrary provision in any agreement between the Company and any one of its members holding any of the Common Shares and Preference Shares (but only with respect to such member), that no further sums are payable with respect to the issue of such shares and no member shall be bound by an alteration in the Constitutional Documents after the date upon which it became a member if and so far as the alteration requires such member to take or subscribe for additional Common Shares or Preference
4



Shares or in any way increases its liability to contribute to the share capital of, or otherwise pay money to, the Company.

3.3.    We have made no investigation of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than Bermuda. This opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Bermuda and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in Bermuda. This opinion is issued solely for the purposes of the filing of the Registration Statement and the issuance of the Securities by the Company as described in the Registration Statement and is not to be relied upon in respect of any other matter.

4.    OPINIONS

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing we are of the opinion that:

4.1.    The Company is duly incorporated and existing under the laws of Bermuda in good standing (meaning solely that it has not failed to make any filing with any Bermuda governmental authority under the Companies Act 1981, or to pay any Bermuda government fee or tax, which would make it liable to be struck off the Register of Companies and thereby cease to exist under the laws of Bermuda).

4.2.    Upon the due issuance of the Equity Securities and payment of the consideration therefor, such Equity Securities will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

4.3.    Upon the due issuance of:

(a)Senior Debt Securities of any series;
(b)Subordinated Debt Securities of any series;
(c)Depositary Shares;
(d)Common Share Warrants;
(e)Preference Share Warrants;
(f)Debt Security Warrants;
(g)Contracts;
(h)Units; and/or
(i)Guarantees,
and payment of the consideration therefor (or, in the case of the Guarantees, the related Arch U.S. Debt Securities and the related Arch Finance Debt Securities), such Securities will be validly issued and (except in the case of any Equity Securities forming part of a Unit) will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company in accordance with the terms thereof.

5



We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the references to our firm under the caption Legal Matters” and “Enforcement of Civil Liabilities under United States Federal Securities Laws” in the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are experts within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act or that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the Rules and Regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

Yours faithfully,

We have relied, to the extent we deem such reliance proper, upon such certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of the Registrants and of public officials and upon statements and information furnished by officers and representatives of the Registrants with respect to the accuracy of material factual matters contained therein which were not independently established by us. In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, without independent investigation or verification of any kind, the genuineness of all signatures on documents we have reviewed, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons signing all such documents, the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to authentic, complete original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, the truthfulness, completeness and correctness of all factual representations and statements contained in all documents we have reviewed, the accuracy and completeness of all public records examined by us and the accuracy of all statements in certificates of officers of the Registrants that we reviewed.
In addition, in rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed that: (i) the Registration Statement and any supplements and amendments thereto will comply with all applicable laws (and will remain effective and in compliance at the time of issuance of any Securities thereunder), (ii) a prospectus supplement describing each class or series of Securities offered pursuant to the Registration Statement, to the extent required by applicable law and relevant rules and regulations of the Commission, will be timely filed with the Commission and will comply with all applicable laws, (iii) the definitive terms of each class or series of Securities will have been established in accordance with the authorizing resolutions adopted by the Registrant’s board of directors (or an authorized committee thereof), any Certificate of Designation (as defined below), as applicable, applicable law and in conformity with such Security’s applicable Agreement, (iv) the Registrant will issue and deliver the Securities in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement including the Prospectus; (v) the resolutions authorizing the Registrant to issue, offer and sell the Securities will have been adopted by such Registrant’s board of directors (or an authorized committee thereof) and will be in full force and effect at all times when the Securities are offered or sold by such Registrant, (vi) each party to each Agreement is or will be duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation and has, and had at all relevant times, full power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each Agreement to which it is a party, (vii) that each of the Debt Securities, the Arch US Senior Debt Securities, the Arch US Subordinated Debt Securities, the Arch Finance Senior Debt Securities, the Guarantees and any Agreement will be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, (viii) that the applicable Indentures will have been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”), (ix) the applicable Arch US Debt Securities Guarantees or Arch Finance Senior Debt Securities Guarantee will have been duly qualified under the TIA, (x) that each Agreement will be duly authorized, executed and delivered, by all of the parties thereto, and each party to each of the
3



Agreements will satisfy all other legal requirements that are applicable to it to the extent necessary to make each Agreement enforceable against it, (xi) that each Agreement will constitute the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of all of the parties thereto under all applicable laws; provided, however, that this assumption is not made as to the Registrants to the extent expressly addressed in our opinion in this opinion letter, (xii) that the execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, each Agreement by each party thereto will not (A) contravene such party’s articles or certificate of incorporation, by-laws or similar organizational documents, (B) contravene any laws or governmental rules or regulations that may be applicable to such party or its assets, (C) contravene any judicial or administrative judgment, injunction, order or decree that is binding upon such party or its assets, or (D) breach or result in a default under any contract, indenture, lease, or other agreement or instrument applicable to or binding upon such party or its assets, (xiii) that all consents, approvals, licenses, authorizations, orders of, and all filings or registrations with, any governmental or regulatory authority or agency required under the laws of any jurisdiction for the execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, each Agreement by each party thereto will be obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (xiv) that there are no agreements or other arrangements that modify, supersede, novate, terminate or otherwise alter any of the terms of any Agreement.
With respect to any Securities consisting of any series of Arch US Preferred Stock, we have further assumed that: (i) the certificate of designation, approved by appropriate corporate action, relating to the Arch US Preferred Stock establishing the designations, preferences and rights of the class or series of Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), will have been authorized, executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and (ii) the Arch US Preferred Stock will be authorized, executed, countersigned by the registrar and transfer agent therefor and delivered by Arch US in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Designation and applicable laws and sold as contemplated in the Registration Statement.
Based upon the foregoing assumptions and assumptions set forth below, and subject to the qualifications and limitations stated herein, having considered such questions of law as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinion expressed below, we are of the opinion that:
1.When the Senior Debt Securities are delivered and paid for as contemplated by any applicable purchase or underwriting agreement and the Registration Statement, the Senior Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, conservatorship, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) the application of general principles of equity (whether applied by a court in equity or at law).
2.When the Subordinated Debt Securities are delivered and paid for as contemplated by any applicable purchase or underwriting agreement and the Registration Statement, the Subordinated Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, conservatorship, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) the application of general principles of equity (whether applied by a court in equity or at law).
3.When the Arch US Senior Debt Securities are delivered and paid for as contemplated by any applicable purchase or underwriting agreement and the Registration Statement, the Arch US Senior Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of Arch US, enforceable against Arch US in accordance with their terms, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, conservatorship, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) the application of general principles of equity (whether applied by a court in equity or at law).
4.When the Arch US Senior Debt Securities are delivered and paid for as contemplated by any applicable purchase or underwriting agreement and the Registration Statement, the Arch US Senior Debt Securities Guarantee will constitute valid and binding obligations of the
4
