It is requested that if anyone intending to attend the hearing (whether in person or via a representative), informs River Re and RIUK in writing via the contact details sets out above as soon as possible and preferably before 14 January 2026 and set out the nature of any objection they may have. This will enable River Re and RIUK to provide notification of any changes to the hearing (including any details that are necessary to attend the hearing remotely) and, where possible, to address any concerns raised in advance of the hearing.

Any person (including any policyholder of River Re or RIUK) who believes that he or she would be adversely affected by the carrying out of the Scheme is entitled to either make written representations or be heard (either in person or by a legal representative) at the hearing of the Application on 28 January 2026. Anyone wishing to do so is asked to give notice of such intention as soon as possible and preferably by 14 January 2026, setting out the grounds of their objection or why they consider they may be adversely affected, by writing to the address or email address above.

If the Scheme is sanctioned by the Court, it will result in the transfer of all the contracts, property, assets and liabilities relating to part of the general insurance and reinsurance business of River Re to RIUK; notwithstanding that a person would otherwise be entitled to terminate, modify, acquire or claim an interest or right or to treat an interest or right as terminated or modified in respect thereof. Any such right will only be enforceable to the extent the order of the Court makes provision to that effect.
