     This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed on Schedule TO and as previously amended and supplemented (as amended and supplemented, the “Schedule TO”) by Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, a Canadian corporation (“Fairfax”), and Fairfax Investments USA Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Fairfax (“Purchaser”). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Odyssey Re Holdings Corp, a Delaware corporation (“Odyssey Re”), other than Shares owned by Fairfax and its subsidiaries, at a purchase price of $65.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding of taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 23, 2009 (the “Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which is attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibit (a)(1)(i), and the related Letter of Transmittal, a copy of which is attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibit (a)(1)(ii) (which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the “Offer”). All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 2 without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.
     The following amendments and supplements to Item 13 of the Schedule TO are hereby made.
Item 13.   Information Required by Schedule 13E-3.
Item 5.   Past Contacts, Transactions, Negotiations and Agreements.
     Item 5 of Item 13 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following information:
     (e)   Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the parties to the Merger Agreement have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to take any and all actions necessary to provide for treatment of all outstanding stock options, restricted stock and awards issued or granted pursuant to Odyssey Re’s Stock Option Plan, 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, Restricted Share Plan, Employee Share Purchase Plan as a result of the Merger in a manner acceptable to the Special Committee. Following consultation with and approval of the Special Committee, Odyssey Re and Fairfax management have agreed on the proposed treatment of the aforementioned equity-based awards in connection with the Merger, as further described below. These arrangements are subject to satisfaction of the conditions to and completion of the Offer and the Merger.
     Stock Options.   Immediately following the completion of the Merger, participants in Odyssey Re’s Stock Option Plan and 2002 Stock Incentive Plan who hold vested options would receive, for each unexercised option, the difference between the Offer Price and the grant price of the vested option, less any applicable withholding of taxes. In connection with such payment, the vested options would be cancelled. With respect to unvested options issued pursuant to the Stock Option Plan, Odyssey Re would, as permitted pursuant to the terms of such plan, replace, effective as of the effective time of the Merger, the Shares underlying such options with an amount in cash (the “Cash Value”). The vesting terms of the option would not change from those governing the original grant award. The Cash Value would equal: $65.00, increased or decreased by the adjusted cumulative percentage change (which may be positive or negative) in Odyssey Re’s book value from June 30, 2009 through to the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter for which financial statements that report Odyssey Re’s book value are available prior to the applicable vesting date of the option. Unless the participant were to elect otherwise in writing at least 14 days prior to the vesting date, such participant would be deemed to have exercised the option (which has an exercise price equal to $0) upon vesting, and would receive the Cash Value, less any applicable withholding of taxes.
     Any participant who chose not to exercise the option upon vesting would be responsible for payment of applicable taxes, and the Cash Value would not increase or decrease based on changes in Odyssey Re’s book value following the vesting date, but would accrue nominal interest from that vesting date until the option is exercised.
     Restricted Stock.   Any outstanding shares of restricted stock that remain subject to vesting terms would, as of the Merger, be cancelled and converted into the Merger Consideration ($65.00 per share of Common Stock), but the cash payable in connection therewith would be subject to the same vesting terms as applied to the restricted stock, and award recipients would not be eligible to receive that cash until the vesting date or dates that would have been applicable to their restricted stock, provided the applicable vesting requirements are satisfied at the time of vesting. Subject to completion of the Merger, Odyssey Re anticipates that it will offer holders of this restricted cash

the option to substitute the opportunity to receive such restricted cash with the opportunity to receive the Cash Value. The Cash Value would be subject to the same non-economic terms and conditions, including the vesting schedule, as currently apply to a holder’s restricted stock.
     Employee Share Purchase Plan.   Immediately following completion of the Merger, Odyssey Re plans to terminate the Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). Pursuant to the arrangements agreed upon between Fairfax and Odyssey Re, Odyssey Re has suspended the ESPP as of October 2, 2009, and no further employee contributions or Odyssey Re matching contributions will be made under, and no further Shares will be purchased pursuant to, the ESPP. Any person holding Shares in ESPP accounts is entitled to tender such Shares in the Offer (subject to applicable requirements of the Securities Act and Exchange Act). Fairfax and Odyssey Re further intend to provide that, if, after earnings for fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 are reported, Odyssey Re’s return on equity for 2009 (calculated in accordance with the ESPP) is 15% or higher, ESPP participants will receive an amount in cash equal to 20% of their ESPP contributions during 2009.
