          Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain
          Officers.




CEO Resignation



On May 17, 2022, SiriusPoint Ltd. (the "Company") announced that Siddhartha
Sankaran
, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, resigned from the Company
effective as of the close of business on May 16, 2022 to pursue other
opportunities. In addition, Mr. Sankaran resigned as Chairman of the Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Board").

On May 17, 2022, the Board appointed Daniel V. Malloy as interim Chief Executive
Officer of the Company and appointed current director Sharon M. Ludlow as
interim Chair of the Board.

Due to Mr. Sankaran's resignation, he will not stand for re-election at the 2022
Annual General Meeting of shareholders of the Company (the "Annual General
Meeting"). As a result, Mr. Sankaran's name has been withdrawn from nomination
for re-election to the Board. The Board has determined that no other nominee for
election at the Annual General Meeting will be named in place of Mr. Sankaran.

In connection with his resignation, the Company and Mr. Sankaran have entered
into a resignation agreement, dated May 16, 2022. Under the resignation
agreement, the Company and Mr. Sankaran have agreed that Mr. Sankaran will make
himself available through August 16, 2022 to provide post-resignation services
to the Company, and in consideration of these services, the Company has agreed
to pay Mr. Sankaran a fee of $250,000. At the end of this transition period, the
Company and Mr. Sankaran have agreed that Mr. Sankaran will be relieved of his
non-competition obligations under the employment agreement to which the Company
and Mr. Sankaran are parties, dated as of February 15, 2021, and, in
consideration of this relief, Mr. Sankaran has agreed to enhanced protections
relating to the solicitation and hiring of certain key Company personnel. Under
the resignation agreement, the Company and Mr. Sankaran continue to be bound by
the non-disparagement provisions in Mr. Sankaran's employment agreement, and the
Company and Mr. Sankaran have also provided each other with mutual releases of
claims. In consideration of these releases and the other commitments made by Mr.
Sankaran
in the resignation agreement, the Company has agreed to pay Mr.
Sankaran
$4,000,000 in a cash lump sum payment and to provide Mr. Sankaran and
his eligible dependents with continued medical and life insurance benefits. In
addition, the Company has permitted Mr. Sankaran to retain 787,460 restricted
common shares of the Company and 409,483 Company stock options (which will
remain exercisable through the end of the three year period following Mr.
Sankaran's
resignation), all of which will now vest over the two years following
his resignation, and the remaining 509,657 restricted shares and 635,615 options
held by him, and all of his previously granted 229,247 performance-based
restricted share units, will be forfeited. The foregoing description of the
resignation agreement is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions
of the resignation agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report
as Exhibit 10.1.

The Company and Mr. Malloy have agreed that, in consideration of Mr. Malloy's services, he will be paid an annual base salary of $850,000, with a minimum
salary of $425,000 if Mr. Malloy's services are for less than six months. Mr.
Malloy
will also have a target cash annual bonus opportunity for fiscal 2022 of
$425,000 (assuming six months of service) or $850,000 (if Mr. Malloy's service
is longer than six months in duration). Mr. Malloy will also be granted
restricted Company common shares having a grant date value of $1,000,000, which
will vest upon the start date of Mr. Malloy's successor (or, if earlier, a
termination without cause or a resignation with good reason). Mr. Malloy will
also be provided with housing (or reimbursement for housing) in Bermuda for a
duration of not less than one year. The foregoing description of the services
agreement is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of Mr.
Malloy's
services agreement with the Company, a copy of which will be filed with
the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2022.
