GOVERNANCE

ITEM 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

~~The~~Our Board ~~of Arch Capital~~ is composed of 1312 members, divided into three classes, serving staggered three-year terms. The Board intends to present for action at the Annual Meeting the election of ~~Francis Ebong, Eileen Mallesch, Louis J. Paglia, Brian~~Laurie S. ~~Posner~~Goodman and John ~~D. Vollaro~~M. Pasquesi to serve as Class III Directors for a term of three years and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified or their earlier resignation or removal. Such nominees were recommended by the Nominating and Governance Committee for approval by the Board. Unless authority to vote for these nominees is withheld, the enclosed proxy will be voted for these nominees, except that the persons designated as proxies reserve discretion to cast their votes for other persons in the unanticipated event that any of these nominees is unable or declines to serve.

After approximately 14 years of service on the Board, Eric W. Doppstadt, a current Class II Director will not stand for re-election following the completion of his current term. In addition, after 10 years of service on the Board, Louis J. Paglia, a current Class I Director, will resign from the Board effective as of the Annual Meeting.

Board

Leadership Structure

The Board reviews the Company’s leadership structure from time to time. The Board has determined that a split in the role of ~~chair~~Chair of the ~~board~~Board and chief executive officer (“CEO”) is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders. The Board has also determined that the role of independent lead director is not currently necessary as our Chair of the Board, Mr. Pasquesi, is a non-management/independent director.

Several factors ~~ensure that we have a~~contribute to our strong and independent Board. All directors, with the exception of Messrs. Grandisson and Vollaro, are independent as defined under the applicable listing standards of The ~~NASDAQ~~Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“~~NASDAQ”~~Nasdaq”), and the Audit, Compensation and Human Capital and Nominating and Governance Committees of our Board are composed ~~entirely of~~

entirely of independent directors. The Company’s independent directors bring experience, oversight and expertise from many industries, including the insurance industry. In addition to feedback provided during the course of Board meetings, the independent directors regularly meet in executive session without management present and have regular access to our management team.

Board Structure

Our Board has reviewed its classified board structure and continues to believe that this structure provides stability and continuity in the Board’s membership and the direction it provides to the Company’s management. This approach promotes a long-term perspective to our strategy and has proved beneficial to our management in establishing the Company’s short- and long-term priorities. We believe that a classified election process remains in the best interests of our shareholders.

Board Independence and Composition

Our Board ~~consists of 13 directors, including 11 non-employee directors. Our Board~~ has concluded that the following 1110 non-employee directors, including our Chair, are independent in accordance with the director independence standards set forth in Rule 5600 of the rules of ~~NASDAQ:~~Nasdaq: John L. Bunce, Jr., Eric W. Doppstadt, Francis Ebong, Laurie S. Goodman, Moira Kilcoyne, Eileen Mallesch, Louis J. Paglia, John M. Pasquesi, Brian S. Posner and Eugene S. ~~Sunshine and Thomas R. Watjen.~~Sunshine. In making these independence determinations, the Board reviewed the relationships with the directors set forth under the caption “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions,” including ordinary course transactions not meeting the disclosure threshold with insurers, reinsurers and producers in which a director or a fund affiliated with any of our directors maintained at least a 10% ownership interest. Specifically, the Board’s independence determinations included reviewing our contribution made to a non-profit organization where Ms. Goodman serves as a fellow (but not as an executive officer). Payment to this non-profit organization constituted less than the greater of $200,000 or 1% of that organization’s annual consolidated gross revenues during its last completed fiscal year.


			~~2023~~2024 PROXY STATEMENT \|			12

The Company does not set specific term limits on director service and believes that a mix of director tenures strengthens the Board’s effectiveness. Longer tenured directors possess experience and institutional knowledge, while newer directors bring fresh perspectives. Of our 1312 directors, ~~six~~four have five or fewer years of service; ~~two~~three have between six and 10 years of service; and five have more than 10 years of service. The average director tenure is approximately ~~nine~~10.5 years.

Skills and Experience

The Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become directors and recommending to the Board the director nominees for consideration at each annual general meeting of shareholders. In general, the Committee will look for new members, possessing superior business judgment and integrity who have distinguished themselves in their chosen fields of endeavor and who have knowledge and experience in the areas of insurance, reinsurance or other aspects of our business, operations or activities, as well as knowledge of the business environments in the jurisdictions in which we currently operate or intend to operate in the future. The Company endeavors to maintain a board representing a diverse spectrum of expertise, background, perspective, race, gender and experience.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the Nominating and Governance Committee’s assessment of new Board candidates will include consideration of the members’ qualifications as independent, as well as consideration of other affiliations, diversity, skills and experience in the context of the needs of the Board.

The Board is committed to effective refreshment that is reflective of the Company’s evolving strategy and to having a diversity of perspectives, skills and experiences on our Board that align with our strategy. ~~Since 2018, we have added five independent directors through a comprehensive recruitment process.~~ With succession planning and bench strength in mind, the Board first ~~identified~~identifies desired skill sets to enhance the effectiveness of our Board and ~~then engaged~~from time to time may retain a search firm to help identify and evaluate possible ~~candidates.~~candidates through a comprehensive recruitment process.

~~With the assistance of the search firm,~~In its ongoing efforts to refresh Board composition, our Nominating and Governance Committee ~~evaluated~~evaluates a broad pool of director candidates based upon the desired skills, qualities and attributes. ~~Following that~~For example, following this work in ~~2018,~~2020, the Board added one director, ~~Ms. Goodman, with extensive mortgage insurance experience. In 2020, the Board added two directors:~~ Ms. Kilcoyne, with more than 30 years of experience in the technology industry and extensive financial services experience, and ~~Mr. Watjen, with extensive senior management and operating experience~~ in ~~the insurance industry. In~~ 2021, the Board ~~again~~ added two directors: Mr. Ebong, with an extensive background in technology and innovation, and Ms. Mallesch, with more than 30 years of finance and risk experience.

Over-boarding. ~~In addition, in order to ensure that our directors have the ability to commit the time required to fully discharge their responsibilities to the Board, our~~Our Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct require directors to advise the Board through the Chair of the Board or the Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee in advance of accepting an invitation to serve on another company board whether public or ~~private.~~private, in order to ensure that our directors have the ability to commit the time required to fully discharge their responsibilities to our Board. A proposed director position is reviewed to ensure that the new role will not interfere with the director’s ability to discharge his or her duties to the Company. To help ensure this, the Board has implemented a practice prohibiting directors from serving on more than three other public company boards.

The Severance Amount would be payable over 12 months. The agreement further provides that if Mr. Vollaro’s employment is terminated by reason of his death or permanent disability, he (or his estate) will be

~~Matters Relating to Director Share Ownership~~

~~In an effort to further align the interests of the non-employee directors with the interests of shareholders, the Company has adopted:~~

~~Share Ownership Guidelines:~~ Share ownership guidelines require the directors to retain common shares having a value of at least three times the annual cash retainer fee payable to the director. Each non-employee director has five years to comply with the guidelines, and stock options, SARs and unvested restricted shares/units do not count toward the requirement.

~~Share Holding Requirements:~~Until our non-employee directors meet their target ownership levels, they must retain an amount equal to 50% of the net profit shares received from Arch Capital’s equity awards. Net profit shares are the shares remaining after payment of the exercise price of an option and taxes owed on exercise of options or SARs, vesting of restricted stock, or vesting and payout under restricted stock units and performance shares.

~~No Hedging Permitted~~:As part of our Code of Business Conduct, our officers, directors and other employees are not permitted to engage in hedging activities with respect to Arch Capital’s common shares or any other publicly- traded equity or debt securities issued by Arch Capital or any of its subsidiaries. Specifically, they may not engage in short sales, purchase or sale of financial instruments or derivatives, including puts and calls, that hedge or offset any change in the market value of such securities. In addition, our officers, directors and other employees may not otherwise engage in transactions that are designed to, or have, the same effect.

~~Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions~~

~~Generally, transactions with related persons are subject to review by the Board.~~

In January 2017, the Company and Kelso & Co. (“Kelso”), sponsored Premia Reinsurance Ltd., a newly formed multi-line Bermuda reinsurance company (“Premia Re”). Premia Re’s strategy is to reinsure or acquire companies or reserve portfolios in the non-life property and casualty insurance and reinsurance run-off market. The initial capitalization of Premia Re’s parent, Premia Holdings Ltd. (“Premia”), consisted of $400 million in common equity and $110 million in unsecured senior debt. Arch Re Bermuda and certain Arch co-investors, including senior management of Premia, invested $100 million and acquired 25% of Premia’s common equity as well as warrants to purchase additional common equity. Two of the co-investors included Nicolas Papadopoulo, President and Chief Underwriting Officer of Arch Capital and CEO of Arch Worldwide Insurance Group, who invested $2.5 million for a 0.625% stake, and Maamoun Rajeh, Chairman and CEO of Arch Worldwide Reinsurance Group, who invested $0.5 million for a 0.125% stake. Affiliates of Kelso, along with co-investors of Kelso, invested $300 million and acquired the balance of Premia’s common equity as well as warrants to purchase additional common equity. Subsidiaries of Arch Capital are providing certain administrative and support services to Premia pursuant to services agreements. Arch Re Bermuda has appointed two directors to serve on the seven-person board of directors of Premia Re. Arch Re Bermuda is providing a 25% quota share reinsurance treaty on certain business written by Premia Re. During 2022, Arch Re Bermuda entered into certain reinsurance transactions with Premia which generated net premiums written and earned of $121 million and $120 million, respectively, compared to $40 million of net premiums written and earned in 2021. At December 31, 2022, Arch Re Bermuda recorded funds held in assets from Premia of $119 million, compared to $54 million at December 31, 2021.

Director Compensation

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding all matters pertaining to compensation paid to directors for Board, committee and committee chair services.

In making non-employee director compensation recommendations, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee takes various factors into consideration, including, but not limited to, input received from the Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s independent consultant, the responsibilities of directors generally, as well as committee chairs, and the form and amount of compensation paid to directors by comparable companies. The Board reviews the recommendations of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee and determines the form and amount of director compensation.

The following table provides information concerning the compensation of our directors for the year ended December 31, 2023. Directors who also serve as employees of the Company do not receive payment for service as directors. In addition to the arrangements described below, all non-employee directors are entitled to reimbursement for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with their travel to and attendance at meetings of the Board or committees.

25			\| 2024 PROXY STATEMENT

(1) Each non-employee member of our Board is entitled to receive an annual cash retainer fee in the amount of $125,000. Each such director may elect to receive the retainer fee in the form of common shares instead of cash. If so elected, the number of shares distributed to the non-employee director will be equal to 100% of the amount of the annual retainer fee otherwise payable divided by the fair market value of our common shares on the date of grant. This column includes the annual retainer (whether paid in cash or, at the election of the director, in common shares) and the fees for service as Chair of the Board, committee chair and Audit Committee member. For the 2022-2023 annual period, Ms. Mallesch received a pro-rated Audit Committee Chair retainer when she assumed the role on February 27, 2023, from Mr. Posner, who remained a member of the Audit Committee through December 31, 2023. On February 27, 2023, Mr. Posner assumed the Finance, Investment and Risk Committee Chair from Mr. Doppstadt. Also, Ms. Kilcoyne and Mr. Ebong joined the Audit Committee on February 27, 2023 and received a prorated 2022-2023 Audit Committee member fee. In addition, Mss. Goodman and Mallesch and Messrs. Doppstadt, Ebong, Paglia, Posner and Watjen received their annual retainer fees in the form of cash and Ms. Kilcoyne and Messrs. Bunce and Sunshine received their annual retainers in the form of 1,714 common shares. Additionally, Mr. Pasquesi elected to receive his annual retainer and Chair of the Board fee in shares in the form of 1,714 common shares for each fee.

The following table sets forth the fees payable to our chairs and Audit Committee members:


Committee Chair/Member			Annual Fee ($)

Audit Committee Member			25,000
Chair of the Board			125,000
Compensation and Human Capital Committee Chair			25,000
Executive Committee Chair			10,000
Finance, Investment and Risk Committee Chair			25,000
Nominating and Governance Committee Chair			25,000
Underwriting Oversight Committee Chair			50,000

(2)Each year, the non-employee directors are granted a number of restricted shares equal to $125,000 divided by the closing price on the date of grant (i.e., the first day of the annual period of compensation for the non-employee directors), and such shares vest on the one-year anniversary of grant date. The grant date fair value indicated in the table has been calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation, using assumptions set forth in the notes accompanying our financial statements. See note 22, “Share-Based Compensation,” on pages 164-167 of the notes accompanying our consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report. On May 4, 2023, each non-employee director received 1,714 common shares, which will vest on May 4, 2024.

The aggregate number of share awards outstanding (i.e., unvested) as of December 31, 2023, for each of the non-employee directors was 1,714 common shares, except for Mr. Watjen whose outstanding share awards were forfeited upon his resignation from the Board on December 31, 2023.

(3)The amounts in the “All Other Compensation” column for Ms. Goodman, and Messrs. Ebong, Paglia, Pasquesi, Posner and Sunshine consist of matching gifts made under the Company’s matching gift program. Under the matching gift program in 2023, the Company matched eligible contributions to qualified charitable organizations on a dollar-for-dollar basis, up to a maximum of $25,000 per calendar year. During 2023, the Company made an aggregate of approximately $127,118 in matching contributions on behalf of the directors noted in the table above.

(4) Mr. Vollaro is a Senior Advisor and an employee of the Company. Mr. Vollaro’s employment agreement provides that he receives an annual base salary of $250,000 and a bonus determined by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee and the Board for his role as Senior Advisor of the Company. For 2023, Mr. Vollaro received a cash bonus of $250,000. In addition, Mr. Vollaro is a member of the Finance, Investment and Risk Committee and Underwriting Oversight Committee of the Board. A description of Mr. Vollaro’s employment agreement is included below.

Employment Agreement with John Vollaro

Our employment agreement with John Vollaro provides for his employment as Senior Advisor of Arch Capital to continue until terminated by either party by providing at least six months’ prior written notice. His base salary is $250,000 per annum, and the target rate for his annual cash bonus is 100% of his annual base salary. Mr. Vollaro is eligible to receive share-based awards at the discretion of the Board and is also entitled to participate in employee benefit programs and other fringe benefits customarily provided to similarly situated senior executives. The Company will reimburse him for his reasonable expenses incurred traveling between Bermuda and the United States.

If Mr. Vollaro’s employment is terminated by us without cause, he will be entitled to receive the base salary and target annual bonus which would have been paid to him under his employment agreement for the period through six months after the date of termination of employment (the “Severance Amount”). The Severance Amount would be payable over 12 months. The agreement further provides that if Mr. Vollaro’s employment is terminated by reason of his death or permanent disability, he (or his estate) will be entitled to receive an amount equal to the

Severance Amount, in each case, (i) offset by any proceeds received from any insurance coverages provided by the Company and (ii) such amount, will be paid to him (or his estate) promptly upon death or permanent disability, as applicable. Mr. Vollaro’s medical insurance coverage benefits will continue for up to 12 months after the date of termination in the event that his employment ends due to permanent disability, or he is terminated other than for cause. Mr. Vollaro has agreed that, during the employment period and for a period of two years after termination of employment for cause or as a result of his resignation, he will not compete with the businesses of Arch Capital or any of its subsidiaries as such businesses exist or are in process or being planned as of the date of termination. If we terminate Mr. Vollaro’s employment without cause, the term of his noncompetition period will extend for one year following termination. Mr. Vollaro also agreed that he will not, for a period of two years following his date of termination, induce or attempt to induce any of our employees to leave his or her position with us or induce any customer to cease doing business with us.

Matters Relating to Director Share Ownership

In an effort to further align the interests of the non-employee directors with the interests of shareholders, the Company has adopted:

Share Ownership Guidelines: Share ownership guidelines require the directors to retain common shares having a value of at least three times the annual cash retainer fee payable to the director. Starting in 2024, the share ownership guidelines are increasing from three to five times the annual cash retainer fee payable to the director. Each non-employee director has five years to comply with the guidelines, and stock options, SARs and unvested restricted shares/units do not count toward the requirement.

Share Holding Requirements:Until our non-employee directors meet their target ownership levels, they must retain an amount equal to 50% of the net profit shares received from Arch Capital’s equity awards. Net profit shares are the shares remaining after payment of taxes owed on vesting of restricted stock or on vesting and payout under restricted stock units. Under the director share holding requirements, net profit shares would also include shares remaining after payment of the exercise price of an option and taxes owed on exercise of options or SARs or on vesting and payout under performance shares, although our non-employee directors do not

currently hold or receive Arch Capital performance shares, options or SARs.

No Hedging Permitted:As part of our Code of Business Conduct, our officers, directors and other employees are not permitted to engage in hedging activities with respect to Arch Capital’s common shares or any other publicly- traded equity or debt securities issued by Arch Capital or any of its subsidiaries. Specifically, they may not engage in short sales, purchase or sale of financial instruments or derivatives, including puts and calls, that hedge or offset any change in the market value of such securities. In addition, our officers, directors and other employees may not otherwise engage in transactions that are designed to, or have, the same effect.

Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions

Generally, transactions with related persons are subject to review by the disinterested members of our Board. Our Board has adopted written procedures regarding the review of transactions involving companies affiliated with a company in which a non-employee director or executive officer of Arch Capital has a material interest (each a “portfolio company”), on the one hand, and Arch Capital or one of its subsidiaries, on the other hand. Under the


27			\| 2024 PROXY STATEMENT

procedures, these transactions must be reviewed and approved by the management of Arch Capital or the operating subsidiary entering into the transaction (as applicable), and the terms of such transaction should be arm’s-length or on terms that are otherwise fair to Arch Capital and its subsidiaries. In addition, except for a few defined de minimis exceptions, these transactions also require the approval of Arch Capital under its holding company oversight guidelines. In reviewing these proposed transactions, the effects, if any, on the independence of the relevant directors are considered under the governing Nasdaq and SEC standards. Any applicable regulatory, tax and ratings agency matters are also considered. Under these procedures, the Board is regularly provided with an update of related party transactions.

In January 2017, the Company and Kelso & Co. (“Kelso”), sponsored Premia Reinsurance Ltd., a newly formed multi-line Bermuda reinsurance company (“Premia Re”). Premia Re’s strategy is to reinsure or acquire companies or reserve portfolios in the non-life property and casualty insurance and reinsurance run-off market. The initial capitalization of Premia Re’s parent, Premia Holdings Ltd. (“Premia”), consisted of $400 million in common equity and $110 million in unsecured senior debt. Arch Re Bermuda and certain Arch co-investors, including senior management of Premia, invested $100 million and acquired 25% of Premia’s common equity as well as warrants to purchase additional common equity. Two of the co-investors included Nicolas Papadopoulo, President and Chief Underwriting Officer of Arch Capital and CEO of Arch Worldwide Insurance Group, who invested $2.5 million for a 0.625% stake, and Maamoun Rajeh, Chairman and CEO of Arch Worldwide Reinsurance Group, who invested $0.5 million for a 0.125% stake. Affiliates of Kelso, along with co-investors of Kelso, invested $300 million and acquired the balance of Premia’s common equity as well as warrants to purchase additional common equity. Subsidiaries of Arch Capital are providing certain administrative and support services to Premia pursuant to services agreements. Arch Re Bermuda has appointed two directors to serve on the seven-person board of directors of Premia Re. Arch Re Bermuda is providing a 25% quota share reinsurance treaty on certain business written by Premia Re. During 2023, Arch Re Bermuda entered into certain reinsurance transactions with Premia which generated net premiums written and earned of $80 million and $81 million, respectively, compared to $121 million and $120 million of net premiums written and earned, respectively in 2022. At December 31, 2023, Arch Re Bermuda recorded funds held in assets from Premia of $158 million, compared to $119 million at December 31, 2022.

In December 2023, we made a $125,000 contribution to the Urban Institute, a non-profit research organization that employs one of our directors in a non-executive role, Laurie S. Goodman.

In January 2023, we entered into various transactions related to private investments supporting the retrocession requirements of certain companies in the Company’s reinsurance segment (collectively, the “2023 Reinsurance Transactions”). One of the investors in the 2023 Reinsurance Transactions is a fund managed by Artisan Partners Limited Partnership (“APLP”). Certain investment management clients of APLP, including the fund referenced in the previous sentence, held an approximately 6.7% stock ownership interest in Arch Capital as of December 31, 2023. See “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management—Common Shares” for further detail. Pursuant to the transaction, the fund has committed to providing $100 million in retrocession protection for Arch’s benefit via an insurance-linked securities structure with respect to certain risks underwritten during the relevant policy period in exchange for net ceded premiums.

Based on a Schedule 13G/A filed in February 2024, BlackRock Inc. (“BlackRock”) owned approximately 7.3% of the outstanding common shares of Arch Capital as of December 31, 2023. BlackRock, through its subsidiaries, provides various investment management, investment trade support and risk analysis services to Arch Capital and its subsidiaries. During 2023, the Company incurred $7.1 million of fees, in the aggregate, under these services arrangements with BlackRock.

Based on a Schedule 13G/A filed in February 2024, The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) owned approximately 10.9% of the outstanding common shares of Arch Capital as of December 31, 2023. In 2023, Vanguard provided investment management services to Company-sponsored pension plans. Fees payable in connection with investing in Vanguard funds are paid by the plans. No fees were paid by the Company.

COMPENSATION

ITEM 2—ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

As required by Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act, we are pleased to ask our shareholders to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the NEOs as described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and the “Executive Compensation Tables.”

We are requesting shareholder approval of the compensation of our NEOs as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the “Executive Compensation Tables” and any related material disclosed in this Proxy Statement. This vote is not intended to address any one specific item of compensation, but instead, the overall compensation of our NEOs and the policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement.

Your vote is advisory and therefore it will not be binding on the Company, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the Board or the Board. However, the Board and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee value the views of our shareholders and the Compensation and Human Capital Committee will take into account the outcome of the advisory vote when considering executive compensation. We have determined to include a shareholder vote on the compensation of NEOs (commonly known as a “say on pay” vote) in our Proxy Statement annually until the next required vote on the frequency of say on pay votes, which will be in 2029. The next say on pay vote accordingly will be held at the 2025 annual general meeting.

Strong Link Between Pay and Performance

Our executive compensation programs are designed to link pay and performance and to align the interests of our executives with those of our shareholders by tying significant portions of their compensation to the Company’s financial performance and stock price performance. We utilize a formulaic approach in our annual incentive plan design for our senior executive team, including our NEOs, and the majority of our long-term incentive awards for senior executives (including NEOs) are granted in the form of performance shares.


CEO Target Mix of Pay						Other NEOs Target Mix of Pay

As illustrated above for our CEO, 75% of target compensation was performance-based and ~~60%~~65% consists of long-term incentives.						As illustrated above for our other NEOs, ~~69%~~71% of target compensation was performance-based and ~~48%~~53% consists of long-term incentives.

This addition recognizes Arch’s consistent performance since our recapitalization in 2001 and further establishes the Company as a leader in the global specialty insurance industry.year.

Long-Term Performance

We believe the Company’s performance is best measured over the long term. The following charts highlight certain of our key metrics for evaluating financial performance, which are considered in our compensation decisions. In evaluating the performance of the Company in connection with our compensation programs, we focus primarily on two main benchmarks: growth in book and tangible book value per share, which creates long-term shareholder value, and Annualized Net Income Return on Equity (“ROE”) and Annualized Operating Return on Average Common Equity (“Operating ROE”), which drive book value growth and are key indicators of the efficient use of capital.

Book Value and Tangible Book Value per Common Share

Book Value per Common ~~Share:~~Share (“BVPS”): Since our recapitalization in 2001, we have delivered strong results to our shareholders as our BVPS has grown by ~~1,507%~~2,212% from $2.03 at December 31, 2001, to ~~$32.62~~$46.94 at

December 31, ~~2022.~~2023. Shareholders who invested in our recapitalization and continue to hold their common shares have seen the book value of their stock increase by ~~14.1%~~15.3% per year on a compounded basis and the price of their shares increased ~~2,728%~~3,245% to ~~$62.78~~$74.27 from ~~$2.22.~~$2.22, an increase by 17.1% per year on a compounded basis.

Tangible Book Value per Common Share (“TBVPS”): Growth in this measure, which excludes goodwill and intangible assets, is indicative of our underlying results and is a strong indicator of growth in shareholder value for a P&C insurer and reinsurer and a common financial performance measure for companies in our industry. As such, Arch Capital focuses the long-term component of its executive compensation program on building TBVPS over time.

Our growth in BVPS and TBVPS is aligned with the trading performance of our common shares (refer to “Common Share Performance” ~~below)~~).

Return on Equity

Our ROE for ~~2022~~2023 reflected strong underwriting performance and growth in investment income, reflecting higher yields available on fixed income securities. Historically low interest rates, competitive market conditions in the property casualty industry and

significant U.S. and global catastrophe losses, in particular in 2017, 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2022, have put pressure on ROEs over the last decade when compared to our return objectives.

Common Share Performance

The chart below summarizes Arch Capital’s cumulative total shareholder return from December 31, 2001 to December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, compared with the S&P 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500 Index”) and the S&P 500 Property and Casualty Insurance Index (“S&P 500 P&C Index”), assuming reinvestment of dividends.

During this period, the price of Arch Capital’s common shares appreciated at a compound annual rate of ~~15.8%~~16.0%, compared with a compound annual rate of return of ~~8.0%~~8.8% for the S&P 500 Index and ~~9.3%~~9.4% for the S&P 500 P&C Index. The share price performance presented below is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Total Shareholder Return

At December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the closing price of our common shares was ~~$62.78,~~$74.27, up ~~41.2%~~18.3% in ~~2022~~2023 and up ~~15.6%~~14.1% on a compounded annualized basis over the past 10 years. While stock valuations tend to fluctuate based on market conditions, our primary metric of value creation is book value growth over time.

In addition, at December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, our common share price represented approximately ~~192%~~158% of our year-end ~~2022~~2023 BVPS, which remained healthy relative to our peers, when taking into account our business mix. For the industry, price-to-book value is viewed as an important indicator of company performance by analysts and the investment community.

Executive Compensation Philosophy

We are a leading, Bermuda-based specialty insurer and reinsurer with a global presence. Our job as an insurer is to understand and price risk and in doing so, to generate superior risk-adjusted returns from the insurance and reinsurance coverages we write. Accordingly, it is critical that we recruit, retain and motivate the best talent in the global marketplace. Over time, and in light of our business strategy, we have sought to develop a compensation philosophy that both supports and is

consistent with our risk-management practices and that helps to ensure that our compensation programs align

our executives and employees with the long-term interests of our shareholders. Our compensation philosophy seeks to reinforce and reward long-term value creation by motivating our NEOs through pay practices based substantially on the overall success of the Company. To achieve these goals, our executive compensation programs have been designed to


41			~~\| 2023 PROXY STATEMENT~~

incentivize our leaders to create long-term value for our shareholders. We use the combination of fixed and variable compensation in the executive compensation program. The variable compensation is ~~performance-based,~~performance-


39			\| 2024 PROXY STATEMENT

based, and consists of short-term annual cash incentive bonuses and long-term incentive share-based awards, while the fixed component of the compensation is designed to reflect the significant levels of ~~their~~our NEOs’ experience, duties and scope of responsibility in leading the Company’s underwriting and operating activities.

~~While we consider a number~~The design of ~~factors in~~ our compensation ~~programs, we are~~program is guided by four core principles:

▪Link Pay with Performance: The majority of our pay for executives is at-risk and performance-based with metrics aligned to the Company’s short-term and long-term financial results and business strategy. Pay should have a clear connection to each executive’s individual contribution to increasing value for our shareholders.

▪Attract, Retain and Align: We maintain programs that will attract and retain critical talent, drive future growth and create strong shareholder alignment within our executive population.

▪Support Culture: We support the Arch Capital culture of teamwork, underwriting discipline and commitment to the highest ethical standards through pay and governance policies and practices that align with shareholder interests.

▪Provide Market Competitive Pay: For each executive position, we consider external benchmark market data ~~at median values~~ for base salary, annual target bonus levels and annualized long-term incentive target grants. Based upon the considerable range of unique facts and circumstances pertaining to our executive talent, we may adjust pay opportunities as appropriate to take into consideration various factors such as consistent high performance and value delivery to the Company, retention, succession, successful tenure and other factors.

How We Make Compensation Decisions

Compensation and Human Capital Committee Process

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviews the performance of, and approves the compensation paid to, the ~~chief executive officer~~CEO and the other NEOs.

▪The ~~chief executive officer~~CEO of Arch Capital assists in the performance reviews of the NEOs other than himself and makes ~~individual~~ recommendations to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee on their base salary, annual incentive and long-term share-based compensation. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviews, discusses and modifies these compensation recommendations in connection with its approval of the compensation for the NEOs.

▪The Compensation and Human Capital Committee meets in executive sessions (without management present) as necessary, particularly when making determinations about base salary, annual incentive and long-term equity compensation, or administering any aspect of the compensation program for the ~~chief executive officer~~CEO of Arch Capital. Determinations about compensation matters in respect of the ~~chief executive officer~~CEO of Arch Capital, the chief financial officer (“CFO”) of Arch Capital, the general counsel of Arch Capital Services LLC, and other senior executives designated by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee are subject to ratification by the Board.

▪To establish levels of base salary, annual incentives, long-term incentives and benefits, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviews extensive historical competitive data, including information compiled from annual reports on Form 10-K, proxy statements and other publicly available information for a representative sample of publicly-traded insurers and reinsurers that we believe compete directly with us for executive talent (the “Compensation Peer Group”). ~~Many of these selected peers~~Generally, peer companies are of ~~generally~~ similar size and have ~~generally~~ similar numbers of employees, product offerings and geographic ~~scope.~~scope as Arch Capital.

In line with the Company’s requirements for managing risks associated with the Company’s compensation programs, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee seeks to ensure our executive compensation program does not encourage executives to take excessive risks that are inconsistent with the long-term success of the Company.

We emphasize long-term results both in our short-term and long-term incentive programs. Under our short-term incentive program, each underwriting year is measured individually and the results are calculated over a 10-year development period. Our long-term incentive program includes a substantial component of performance-based compensation, which is earned based on achieved performance against preselected performance goals over a three-year performance period.

Our compensation philosophy and governance features are also complemented by the following policies: (i) a clawback policy, (ii) a no hedging policy and (iii) share ownership guidelines and share holding requirements that are designed to align our compensation with long-term shareholder interests. See “Additional Compensation Policies and Practices” for further detail.

We believe our approach to the evaluation of performance and the design of our compensation programs assist in mitigating excessive risk-taking that could harm our Company and ~~have concluded that~~believe there is no excessive risk inherent in our programs.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Our Compensation and Human Capital Committee has sole authority to select, retain and terminate any consultants or advisors used to provide independent advice to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee and evaluate executive compensation, including sole authority to approve the fees and any other retention terms for any such consultant or advisor. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee engaged Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC (“Meridian”) as its independent executive compensation consultant to assist in establishing compensation policies and programs. During ~~2022,~~2023, Meridian:

▪reviewed and advised the Compensation and Human Capital Committee on matters concerning compensation of the CEO and our other NEOs;

▪reported on all aspects of short-term and long-term compensation program design, including incentive mix;

▪assessed the companies in the Compensation Peer Group for continued appropriateness;

▪reported on emerging trends and developments in executive compensation and corporate governance;

▪prepared formal presentations for the Compensation and Human Capital Committee regarding executive compensation;

▪reviewed compensation benchmarking analysis for each of the Company’s senior executives; and

▪reviewed and advised on director compensation.

Meridian did not provide any other services to the Company and no other fees were paid to Meridian except fees related to their services to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes that Meridian is independent and no conflict of interest exists.

Competitors for Setting Pay and Comparing Performance

For purposes of making compensation decisions and for evaluating our financial performance relative to peers, we used compensation and financial data derived from the Compensation Peer Group listed below. We annually review the companies in our Compensation Peer Group with Meridian. Prior to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee making ~~2022~~2023 compensation decisions, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee conducted a formal review of the Compensation Peer Group, with assistance from Meridian, resulting in a recommendation to keep the same Compensation Peer Group as in effect for the prior year, which was approved by the Compensation and ~~approved several changes to the peer companies.~~Human Capital Committee.

The table below describes the multi-step filtering exercise used in the Compensation Peer Group selection process:


Compensation Peer Group Selection Process
Step 1: Industry Filters			Select industries relative to Arch Capital’s business operations.
Step 2: Size Filters			Filter companies based on revenue and asset size.
Step 3: Additional Subjective Filters			Review business descriptions and additional financial measures.

The table below describes the four primary functions for the Compensation Peer Group:


Purpose of the Compensation Peer Group
Pay Comparisons			Determine competitive pay levels and identify differences from general industry market data.
			Assess ability to attract, retain, engage and motivate top talent.
Compensation Structure			Provide benchmarks for compensation structure (pay mix, performance metrics, leverage, vehicles, etc.).
			Use as a foundation or reference when making design changes to the compensation program.
Performance Comparisons			Assess performance relative to companies facing similar business challenges.
			Use as an input to setting incentive plan goals.
Financial Performance			Company performance is measured in absolute terms, as well as versus prior year results, and in relative terms in comparison with the performance of peer companies in our Compensation Peer Group on the same financial metrics.

~~In connection with the annual review of the~~The Compensation Peer Group ~~Meridian identified additional companies~~used for ~~the Compensation Committee to consider due to:~~

▪~~Our recent accelerated growth compared to the current peer companies;~~

▪~~We were above the Compensation Peer Group median for revenues and were in the top quartile in other key size metrics;~~

▪~~Our business is more diverse and complex than several of our peers; and~~

▪~~We are competing for executive talent outside our traditional industry competitors due to talent shortages.~~

~~Following the review~~2023 compensation decisions was comprised of the Compensation Peer Group and after consulting with Meridian, the Compensation Committee approved several changes to the Compensation Peer Group for 2022. Three companies were initially removed (Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd., Essent Group Ltd. and Radian Group, Inc.) each of which are significantly smaller than the Company, and Alleghany Corporation was subsequently removed when it was acquired in 2022. Three companies were added (Arthur J. Gallagher & Co., The Travelers Companies, Inc. and Willis Towers Watson Public Limited Company) that more closely align with the Company’s size and growth trajectory. These additions also align more

~~closely with our business. The new peer companies also include insurance brokers with which Arch competes for executive talent.~~following 17 companies:

The Compensation Peer Group is used primarily to benchmark our compensation against companies that we compete with for talent, while the Performance Peer Group is more focused on companies that participate in similar lines of business in order to more closely measure our relative TSR performance. In establishing the Performance Peer Group for 2023, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee started with the Compensation Peer Group, ~~(as revised),~~ added Essent Group Ltd., Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, MGIC Investment Corporation and Radian Group, Inc. and removed Arthur J.

Shareholder Engagement and Results of Say-on-Pay Votes

At our ~~2022~~2023 annual general meeting of shareholders, approximately ~~94.6%~~93.9% of the votes cast approved the Company’s executive compensation programs and the resulting compensation described in the ~~2022~~2023 Proxy Statement. Based on this high level of support, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee determined that shareholders support our compensation practices and will continue to work to ensure that our NEOs’ interests are aligned with our shareholders’ interests to support long-term value creation.

In addition, we continue to engage our largest institutional shareholders in discussions regarding our executive compensation program and other governance matters, including our ESG program, as outlined above (see “Proxy Summary”). We remain committed to listening to feedback from shareholders when designing, reviewing and evaluating our compensation programs and policies.

Elements of Compensation Program

We have three primary elements of total direct compensation for our executive compensation program: base salary, short-term cash incentive and long-term incentive share-based awards, all of which are described below. We also provide standard retirement and benefit plans and limited perquisites customarily provided to expatriates residing in Bermuda.

Base Salary

Base salary is fixed cash compensation and integral to any employment arrangement. ~~Salary~~Base salary is reviewed annually and adjusted when appropriate. Increases are not automatic or guaranteed. ~~Placement of our NEOs within a~~The Compensation and Human Capital Committee sets each NEO’s base salary ~~range is~~ based on market data for the individual’s position and geographic location as well as experience, duties and scope of responsibility. From time to time, base salaries may be adjusted to reflect promotions, increases in responsibilities and competitive considerations.

Short-Term Annual Cash Incentive

For each executive participant, target annual cash incentive award levels are established, stated as a percentage of base salary. These levels are ~~based on~~influenced by external market data ~~at median values~~and adjusted as appropriate to take into consideration various factors such as consistent high performance and value delivery to the Company, internal equity, retention and succession.

~~Award~~Short-term annual cash incentive award levels are designed to provide formulaic payouts to our senior executives and serve as a critical tool for rewarding the achievement of annual corporate and individual goals. Amounts are earned based on the attainment of quantitative and qualitative strategic accomplishments for the relevant year.

Overview

At the beginning of each annual performance period, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee approves the financial performance metrics and reviews the strategic goals that will be considered when determining the ultimate amount of the performance-based annual cash incentive awarded upon completion of the calendar year, including establishing specific targets, thresholds and maximums for each financial performance metric. Performance below the threshold would result in no payout related to the financial metrics. For ~~2022,~~2023, financial performance metrics were given a weighting of 70% and strategic goals were given a weighting of 30%.

The financial metrics are measured based on the financial performance achieved by each of the ~~Segments~~segments (i.e., Insurance, Reinsurance and Mortgage (collectively the “underwriting units”) and the investment unit) under our existing incentive compensation formula plans. Such plans typically base payouts on the achievement of ROE targets, reflecting the rate of return we earn on our capital, which supports our goal of growth in TBVPS and aligns our executives’ compensation with shareholder returns. At the beginning of each underwriting year, the segment-level ROE scale, which establishes the threshold, target and maximum performance levels ~~payable~~ under the formula plans, is approved by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee. ~~These~~The threshold, target and maximum payout percentages as well as the ~~2022~~2023 underwriting year ROE scale are set forth in the following table:


45			~~\| 2023 PROXY STATEMENT~~


Level of Performance1	Level of Performance1	ROE Scale	Payout Factor	Level of Performance1	ROE Scale	Payout Factor
Threshold	Threshold	7.50%	36.0%	Threshold	7.50%	27.0%
Target	Target	12.54%	100.0%	Target	13.74%	100.0%
Maximum	Maximum	18.81%	200.0%	Maximum	20.61%	200.0%

1 The threshold and maximum levels have been a consistent percentage of the target level over time. However, starting in 2020, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee determined that no amounts will be payable for a plan year unless the ROE for the plan year equals at least 7.5%.

Under the formula plans, for underwriting units, payouts are determined based on the unit’s performance during the current calendar year across all open underwriting years (typically the last 10 years), evaluated against the applicable ROE scale and target developed for each such underwriting year and applied over its respective development period (again, typically 10 years). For the investment unit, awards are derived from the unit’s performance as measured by our investment returns compared to the applicable benchmark index over the past one, three and five years.


43			\| 2024 PROXY STATEMENT

Strategic goals are designed to incentivize participants to achieve corporate objectives that cannot be measured by financial metrics and are approved by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee at the beginning of each year. Performance against strategic goals is evaluated by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee at the conclusion of the calendar year. The

strategic goals for each of our NEOs for ~~2022~~2023 are discussed below under “~~2022~~202 3 Compensation Decisions for ~~NEOs~~.NEOs.”

Performance Criteria

The following performance criteria and weights apply for corporate and unit executives.

▪Corporate executives include our CEO and CFO who have a broad set of responsibilities across the entire

group and no specific underwriting unit profit and loss responsibilities.

▪Unit executives have profit and loss responsibilities for a specific underwriting unit and in ~~2022,~~2023, included Messrs. Papadopoulo, Rajeh and Gansberg.

Corporate executives’ 70% financial performance metric weighting is based on overall group performance, while the Reinsurance and Mortgage executives’ 70% financial metric weighting is based 50% on the results of the formula plan for their respective unit and 20% on overall group performance, in order to further incentivize them to support overall group objectives. For the President’s role, the 70% financial performance metric weighting is based 50% on overall group performance and 20% on Insurance segment performance.

50% for President role

0–200%

Convert the payout levels for each unit to an ROE-equivalent, which is inferred1 using the current underwriting year’s ROE scale.

Derive a group-wide ROE supporting the incentive compensation formula plans using the unit-specific inferred ROEs, weighted by the capital allocated (or deployed) to each underwriting unit.

Compare the group-wide ROE to the target level ROE for the current year in order to assess the relative performance of the group.

Compute the group-level payout multiple using the applicable scale.

Financial Metrics— Segment Level

The incentive compensation payout level for each unit executive measured under this category is equal to his respective unit’s incentive compensation formula plan multiple (total bonus payout dollars for the unit for the current year expressed as a percentage of the aggregate target bonus pool for the unit for the current year), as described in “Overview” above.

1 An ROE equivalent for a given unit is inferred by determining the ROE that would be required under the current underwriting year’s ROE scale to produce a payout multiple equal to the unit’s actual incentive compensation formula plan payout.

2 For the strategic criteria, payout percentages over 200% may only be used if the overall financial criteria payout percentage is 100% (i.e., target level of performance) or higher. The overall maximum bonus payment cannot exceed 200% of the target amount.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

Overview

The Company grants long-term equity-based incentive awards to link the compensation of our NEOs directly to corporate performance over the long term and align the interests of executives to our shareholders. A majority of the economic value is granted in performance-based vehicles. The mix of such long-term awards is approximately (i) 80% performance-based, consisting of 55% performance shares and 25% stock options and (ii) 20% time-based restricted shares. The performance shares are subject to both service-based conditions and performance-based vesting conditions and directly link pay with performance and create shareholder alignment. The stock options also align executives’ interests with those of shareholders and focus on driving stock price. Time-based restricted shares promote direct retention and shareholder alignment.

These awards make up a significant component of total direct compensation, and we believe that the combination of awards supports our pay-for-performance philosophy by encouraging long-term performance and shareholder value creation.

Long-term incentive award grants are generally made annually at the beginning of each year, and the performance shares have three-year overlapping performance periods. In addition, during the year, additional equity awards may be granted for critical retention situations, newly hired employees and special recognition. The summary below describes the vesting conditions and other relevant data relating to the annual long-term equity program.

Performance Shares

Metrics: ~~Absolute~~ Tangible Book Value per share growth over the 3-year performance period, with a TSR modifier of +/- 25%, relative to the TSR of our Performance Peer Group as discussed within “How We Make Compensation Decisions—Selected ~~Competitors~~”Competitors” and as shown below.

Opportunities: Pre-established threshold, target and maximum opportunities (e.g., 50%, 100%, 200%). Below threshold performance results in 0% shares earned.

Payout: Earned shares vest in March following the end of the performance period, with the number of vested shares dependent upon the level of goal achievement.

Vesting: 3-year ratable commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Underlying Value: Denoted in non-qualified stock options evaluated using the Black-Scholes methodology.

Exercise Price: Equal to the closing share price on the grant date.

Life: 10-year maximum term.

Black-Scholes Methodology: The grant date fair value is calculated in accordance with the Black-Scholes model. The expected life assumption for options is based on the Company’s historical exercise experience of six years (of a 10-year maximum term). Expected volatility is based on the Company’s daily historical trading data of its common shares.

Vesting: 3-year ratable commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date.

Underlying Value: Denoted in shares of Arch Capital.

Payout: In shares.

Dividends: Accrue and are paid out upon vesting.


			2024 PROXY STATEMENT \|			46

The financial metric against which we measure Company performance under our performance shares is based on growth in TBVPS. We selected this metric because higher and more consistent TBVPS growth over time is an indication of effective and prudent use of capital and is shown to deliver value over time. We also believe that performance in relation to our Performance Peer Group is

important in evaluating our long-term performance. Accordingly, we have incorporated a relative TSR modifier into the design for several reasons, most significantly its likely correlation to long-term growth in TBVPS and direct correlation with our shareholders’ returns over the performance period.

~~2022~~2023 Short-Term Cash Incentive Plan Payout

The group financial performance metrics represent the weighted average results under the plan formula for the insurance, reinsurance, mortgage and investment units determined for ~~2022.~~2023. The level of goal achievement for the group during ~~2022~~2023 for open underwriting years was ~~126.8%~~127.3%, exceeding the maximum Level of Goal Achievement Required of 115% as indicated in “Elements of Compensation ~~Program - 2022~~Program—2023 Year ROE Scale/Financial ~~Goal~~s /Goals/Payout Scale,,” which resulted in a payout factor of 200.0% of target for the group financial goal portion of bonuses.

The level of goal achievement for the individual units under the financial goal portion of the Short-Term Cash Incentive Plan for the open underwriting years was ~~120.4%~~128.7%, ~~125.2%~~140.9% and ~~134.8%~~144.1% for the Insurance, Reinsurance and Mortgage segments, respectively, resulting in payout factors of ~~141.3%~~157.3%, ~~150.1%~~181.7% and ~~170.2%~~188.3% of target, respectively.

The strategic performance results, which make up 30% of the calculation, are highlighted in the following pages covering each individual NEOs’ compensation.

~~2020~~2021 Performance Shares Plan Payout

As stated above, the Company uses performance shares as part of its Long‐Term Incentive (“LTI”) Compensation Plan. Under the terms of the LTI Plan, the final number of shares ultimately earned by the eligible executives is a function of the absolute growth in the TBVPS of the Company’s common shares over a three-year performance period, supplemented by a TSR modifier.

The starting TBVPS for the ~~2020~~2021 grants was ~~$24.62.~~$28.63. At the end of ~~2022,~~2023, the TBVPS grew to ~~$30.45,~~$44.99, a ~~7.34%~~16.26% annualized increase over the performance period, resulting in a payout percentage of ~~63.4%~~200%, based on TBVPS growth.

Based on Arch Capital’s TSR over the three‐year performance period of ~~38.8%~~122.9%, which placed it in the ~~76.5th~~100th percentile of our Performance Peer Group, the resulting TSR multiplier was ~~119.2%~~125.0%.

Chief Executive Officer

Strategic Goals

In early 2023, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed and approved Mr. Grandisson’s 2023 strategic objectives. During the year, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed updates on the progress toward achievement of the objectives and final determinations were made in February 2024. The resulting determination by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee was that he had performed with respect to his pre-established strategic objectives at a level translating to a 200% payout factor. Highlights are summarized below:

Mr. Grandisson’s strategic goals were based on Company performance, including in relation to the Performance Peer Group, progress on key strategic initiatives and succession planning. Under Mr. Grandisson’s leadership, the Company’s financial results were outstanding as highlighted in “2023 Performance at a Glance” section. Book value per common share was up 43.9%, annualized net income return on average common equity and annualized after-tax operating return on average common equity were 29.7% and 21.6%, respectively, compared to 11.6% and 14.8%, respectively, in 2022. The Company’s stock price was up 18.3% in 2023. In addition, the Company was once again named a “Most Honorable Company” placing in the top-three overall in every category by Institutional Investor. The Company was also named Best Places to Work by U.S. News and World Report. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee evaluated Mr. Grandisson’s oversight in developing the Company’s global strategy focusing on revenue growth, operating efficiencies, innovation and increased profitability. The Committee also evaluated Mr. Grandisson’s oversight of succession planning and maximizing Executive Leadership Team effectiveness, while also continuing to inspire the Senior Leadership Team (“SLT”) of the Company’s top ~150 leaders. The Committee also reviewed Mr. Grandisson’s oversight of key strategic initiatives in the areas of analytics, M&A, employee engagement, D&I, and ESG programs and policies, as well as continued progress on global IT transformation and Arch Management System, both of which are multi-year initiatives to upgrade and refresh core processes and systems that will generate productivity, efficiency and consumer centric solutions.

Compensation Decisions

■ Base Salary, Short- and Long-Term Incentive Target

Mr. Grandisson did not have any change to base salary or short- and long-term incentive targets in 2023.

For 2024 compensation decisions, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed and benchmarked Mr. Grandisson’s compensation against the Company’s Compensation Peer Group. Based on that review, in order to maintain market competitiveness at our target positioning as described in “How We Make Compensation Decisions,” Mr. Grandisson’s base salary was increased to $1,300,000 from $1,225,000 in January 2024 and his long-term incentive target was increased to 560% of base salary from 450% of base salary. His short-term incentive remains at 200% of base salary.

■ Short-Term Cash Incentive

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed Mr. Grandisson’s performance against his strategic goals, which resulted in a payout factor of 200% on the portion of his bonus that was based on strategic performance.

Chief Executive Officer
Marc Grandisson
Chief Executive Officer
Strategic Goals
In early 2022, the Compensation Committee reviewed and approved Mr. Grandisson’s 2022 strategic objectives. During the year, the Compensation Committee reviewed updates on the progress toward achievement of the objectives and final determinations were made in February 2023. The resulting determination by the Compensation Committee was that he had performed with respect to his pre-established strategic objectives at a level translating to a 174% payout factor. Highlights are summarized below:
Mr. Grandisson’s strategic goals were based on Company performance, including in relation to the Performance Peer Group, progress on key strategic initiatives and succession planning. Under Mr. Grandisson’s leadership, the Company celebrated being added to the S&P 500, a testament to the Company’s strong financial performance, market capitalization, public float and liquidity position. The Company’s stock price was up 41% in 2022, the best performer in our peer group as highlighted in “202 2 Performance at a Glance” section. In addition, the Company was named a “Most Honorable Company” (top 10%) by Institutional Investor. The Compensation Committee evaluated Mr. Grandisson’s oversight in developing the Company’s global strategy focusing on revenue growth, operating efficiencies, innovation and increased profitability. The Committee also evaluated Mr. Grandisson’s oversight of succession planning and finalization for the top three levels of management, while also engaging a newly formed Senior Leadership Team (SLT) of the Company’s top ~150 leaders. The Committee also reviewed Mr. Grandisson’s oversight of key strategic initiatives in the areas of analytics, M&A, diversity and inclusion, and ESG programs and policies, as well as continued progress on global IT transformation and Arch Management System, both of which are multi-year initiatives to upgrade and refresh core processes and systems that will generate productivity, efficiency and consumer centric solutions.
Compensation Decisions
■ Base Salary & Short-Term Cash Incentive Target Adjust-ments
Mr. Grandisson’s base salary and target annual bonus were last increased four years ago, in 2018, when Mr. Grandisson was promoted to Arch Capital’s Chief Executive Officer position.
For 2022 compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee reviewed and benchmarked Mr. Grandisson’s compensation against the Company’s Compensation Peer Group. Based on that review, in order to maintain market competitiveness at our target positioning as described in “How We Make Compensation Decisions ,” Mr. Grandisson’s salary was increased to $1,225,000 from $1,000,000 in January 2022 and his Short-Term Incentive Target was increased to 200% of base salary from 165% of base salary.
A similar review was conducted in the fourth quarter of 2022 and no adjustments were made for 2023.

Additional Compensation Policies and Practices

Arch Capital’s compensation philosophy and related governance features are also complemented by several specific elements that are designed to align our compensation with long-term shareholder interests. These elements include the following:

Clawback Policy

The Company has a clawback policy covering all executive officers, including the ~~chief executive officer.~~CEO. This policy provides that, in the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material

noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee will review all cash and equity incentive-based

compensation that was paid to current or former executive officers during the three-year period preceding the required restatement. If any such incentive-based compensation would have been lower as a result of the restated financial results, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee ~~will require~~would seek the reimbursement of the incremental portion of the incentive-based compensation in excess of the compensation that would have been paid based on the restated financial ~~results (to the extent permitted by applicable law).~~results. This policy ~~will~~is to be interpreted in accordance with the applicable rules of ~~NASDAQ~~Nasdaq (or other securities exchange on which our common shares are listed from time to time).

No Excise Tax Gross-Ups

The Company does not provide excise tax gross-up payments to any of its executives in connection with change in control payments.

No Tax Gross-Ups

The Company does not include tax gross-up provisions in employment agreements and does not provide tax gross-ups to our ~~NEOs.~~executive officers.

Share Ownership Guidelines

In an effort to further align the interests of the senior management team with the interests of shareholders, the Company has share ownership guidelines that require these executives to maintain designated levels of ownership of the common shares of Arch Capital. Specifically, these guidelines require common share ownership levels as follows: (1) ~~chief executive officer~~CEO of Arch Capital—six times base salary; and (2) NEOs and other executives who file reports under Section 16 of the Exchange Act—four times base salary. Each executive has five years to comply with the guidelines. Unvested restricted shares and shares subject to unvested restricted share units which, in either case, vest solely based on time and continued employment will be counted toward the target ownership level. Unvested performance restricted shares and shares subject to unvested performance restricted share units will be counted toward the target ownership level to the extent, if any, that the performance targets would have been achieved based on performance through the last completed calendar year of the applicable performance period (as determined by the Company). Shares subject to stock options, SARs and ~~SARs~~unvested performance awards (except as set forth above in the case of unvested performance restricted shares and shares subject to unvested performance restricted share units) do not count toward the requirement.

As of December 31, 2023, all our NEOs had satisfied their ownership requirements.

See also “Director Compensation—Matters Relating to Director Share Ownership” for a description of share ownership guidelines that require our ~~non-~~

~~employee~~non-employee directors to maintain designated levels of ownership of common shares of Arch Capital.

Share Holding Requirements for Executives

To ensure each of our senior executives meets our share ownership guidelines, the Company requires that each senior executive retain 50% of the net profit shares received from Company equity awards until the executive meets target ownership levels. Net profit shares are the shares remaining after payment of the exercise price of an option and taxes owed on exercise of options or SARs, vesting of restricted stock or vesting and payout under restricted stock units and performance shares. See also “Director Compensation—Matters Relating to Director Share Ownership” for a description of share retention guidelines that require our non-employee directors to maintain designated levels of ownership of common shares of Arch Capital.

No Hedging Permitted

As part of our Code of Business Conduct, our officers, directors and other employees are not permitted to engage in hedging activities with respect to Arch Capital’s common shares or any other publicly-traded equity or debt securities issued by Arch Capital or any of its subsidiaries. Specifically, they may not engage in short sales, purchase or sale of financial instruments or derivatives, including puts and calls, that hedge or offset any change in the market value of such securities. In addition, our officers, directors and other employees may not otherwise engage in transactions that are designed to, or have, the same effect.

Limits on Pledging

Our Code of Business Conduct discourages the pledging of our common shares as collateral for loans and includes limitations.

▪In no event may any executive officer or director of the Company pledge an amount of common shares in respect of a loan that exceeds the lesser of 30% of the common shares beneficially owned by the individual (as reported or would be reported in our Proxy Statement) or 0.5% of the then outstanding common shares of Arch Capital; and

▪any securities pledged would not count toward satisfying any required ownership level of securities under relevant share retention guidelines.

Double-Trigger Change in Control Provision

The equity-based compensation award agreements for the NEOs provide that, in the event the officer’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for cause, or by the officer for good reason, within two years following the consummation of a change in control in which the awards are assumed by the acquirer, unvested awards would immediately vest, and the options and SARs would have a remaining term of 90 days from termination.

Options and SARs

Our plans do not permit granting of stock options or SARs at an exercise price below the closing price on the grant date and also do not allow for repricing or reducing the exercise price of a stock option or SAR. We also do not allow out-of-the-money options or SARs to be exchanged for cash or other property.

Procedures Regarding Share-Based Compensation

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee, or a subcommittee comprised of at least two of its members, approves all grants of share-based compensation to the NEOs and other executives who file reports under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and these awards have generally also been ratified by the full Board.

The grant date for annual grants of share-based compensation is determined on the dates of regularly scheduled meetings of the full Board to provide assurance that grant timing is not being manipulated for employee gain. Generally, awards are granted to the NEOs as part of the annual process, which encompassed ~~826~~939 employees worldwide for awards granted in ~~2022.~~2023. We may grant a small percentage of awards at other times throughout the year on the date of regularly scheduled meetings of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee or the full Board in connection with hiring or the promotion of an executive or special retention circumstances. In the case of new hires, the awards have grant dates corresponding to the ~~date the~~ employment ~~commences~~start date for the new hire.

Retirement and Benefit Plans

Our NEOs participate in retirement and benefit plans provided to other employees. The benefit plans include medical coverage and life and disability insurance. Our health and welfare plans help ensure that the Company has a productive and focused workforce through reliable and competitive healthcare and other benefits. Defined contribution retirement plans are provided for all employees according to local market practice. Retirement plans help employees save and prepare for retirement. In addition, the Company maintains an Executive Supplemental Non-Qualified Savings and Retirement Plan

covering our U.S.-based senior executives which is described under “~~2022~~202 3 Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation.” Our NEOs who are Bermuda-based are not permitted to participate in the non-qualified defined contribution retirement plan due to applicable United States income tax rules. In lieu of pension and matching contributions through the non-qualified plan, we have provided comparable benefits in the form of current cash payments, which are included in the “~~2022~~202 3 Summary Compensation Table” in the “All Other Compensation” column.

Other Personal Benefits

The Company provides our NEOs who are based in Bermuda with perquisites and other benefits that the Company and Compensation and Human Capital Committee believe are reasonable and consistent with market practice in Bermuda to better enable the Company to attract and retain key employees. Such amounts have been included in the “~~2022~~202 3 Summary Compensation Table” in the “All Other Compensation” column and discussed in Footnote 5 of the “~~2022~~202 3 Summary Compensation Table.”

Tax Considerations

Section 162(m)

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) generally limits the deductible amount of annual compensation paid to a “covered employee” ~~(i.e.~~(i.e., the chief executive officer, chief financial officer and certain other current or former executive officers) to no more than $1,000,000 each. Since Arch Capital will not generally be subject to United States income tax, ~~the~~any limitation on deductibility will not directly apply to it. However, ~~the~~any applicable limitation would apply to a United States subsidiary of Arch Capital if it employs a covered employee. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee believes that its primary responsibility is to provide a compensation program that will attract, retain and reward the executive talent necessary to our success. Consequently, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee recognizes that the loss of a tax deduction could be necessary or advisable in some circumstances due to the restrictions of Section 162(m).

Report of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee on the Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed and discussed the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section included in this Proxy Statement with management. Based on such review and discussion, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee recommended to the Board that the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section be included in the ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report and this Proxy Statement for filing with the SEC.

The Company maintains an Executive Supplemental Non-Qualified Savings and Retirement Plan. Under this ~~Plan,~~plan, participants may defer eligible base salary in excess of the compensation limit imposed by the Internal Revenue Code (“Excess Compensation”) (for ~~2022,~~2023, base salary in excess of ~~$305,000)~~$330,000) and, with respect to the eligible NEOs, the Company provides matching contributions on these deferrals in amounts equal to 100% of the first 3% of salary contributed to the plan and 50% of the next 3% of salary contributed to the plan. The Company also makes pension-like contributions on behalf of the eligible NEOs in an amount equal to 10% of Excess Compensation. In addition, the eligible NEOs may defer up to 100% of annual bonus paid each year and these bonus deferral contributions are not eligible for matching contributions by the Company. Until distribution, the contributions and any earnings are held in an irrevocable trust known as a “rabbi trust” by an independent trustee, and the trust assets remain subject to the Company’s creditors in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy. The participants may elect to have their contributions under the plan deemed to be invested among certain permissible mutual fund options. The plan provides that, as soon as practicable following retirement, death or other termination of employment, but subject to any delay required by the Internal Revenue Code, all benefits under the plan will be distributed either in a single lump sum in cash or, if elected, in installments over a period not to exceed 10 years.

Section 457A of the Internal Revenue Code generally prohibits U.S. taxpayers from deferring U.S. income tax on compensation attributable to services performed for certain Bermuda-based employers. As a result, certain employees of Arch Capital and Arch Re Bermuda, including Messrs. Grandisson, Morin, Papadopoulo and Rajeh are not permitted to participate in the ~~non-qualified defined contribution retirement plan.~~Executive Supplemental Non-Qualified Savings and Retirement Plan. In lieu of pension and matching contributions ~~which~~that would otherwise be provided to these executives through the non-qualified plan, we have provided comparable benefits to them in the form of current cash payments, subject to tax. Such cash payments have been included in the “~~2022~~202 3 Summary Compensation Table” in the “All Other Compensation” column for fiscal years 2023, 2022 ~~2021~~ and ~~2020.~~2021.

If the Company does not elect to place them on garden leave and these individuals continue to work during the six-month notice period, they will be entitled to receive the amounts set forth in the preceding sentence

pursuant to their respective employment agreement. See

“Employment Arrangements.” For a termination date of December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the total of these cash amounts accruing from the notice date would have been ~~$2.9~~$3.3 million for Mr. Grandisson, ~~$1.5~~$1.6 million for Mr. Morin, ~~$1.7~~$1.9 million for Mr. Papadopoulo and $2.5 million for Mr. Rajeh.

Most Important Measures to Determine Fiscal Year ~~2022~~2023 Compensation Actually Paid

The three items listed below represent the most important metrics used to link compensation actually paid for our NEOs for Fiscal Year ~~2022~~2023 to the Company’s performance, as further described in “~~Compensation –~~ Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” in the section titled “Elements of Compensation ~~Program~~”Program” sub-sections called “~~Short-Term~~“Short-Term Annual Cash ~~Incentive~~” Incentive” and “Long-Term Incentive ~~Plan~~.Plan.”

▪Operating ROE

▪Growth in TBVPS

▪Relative TSR (the Company’s TSR as compared to a performance peer group established by the Compensation and Human Capital Committee)

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay versus Performance Table

As described in more detail in the section “~~Compensation –~~ Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-performance philosophy. While the Company utilizes several performance measures to align executive compensation with Company performance, all of those Company measures are not presented in the Pay Versus Performance table. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.

Compensation Actually Paid and Company Cumulative TSR

As demonstrated by the following graph, the amount of compensation actually paid to Mr. Grandisson and the average amount of compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Grandisson) strongly aligns with the Company’s cumulative TSR over the ~~three~~four years presented in the table. The alignment is because a significant portion of the compensation actually paid to Mr. Grandisson and to the other NEOs is comprised of equity awards. As described in more detail in the section “~~Compensation –~~ Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Company targets that approximately ~~60%~~65% of the value of total compensation awarded for Mr. Grandisson and ~~48%~~53% of the value awarded for the other NEOs be comprised of equity awards, including restricted shares, performance-based restricted shares and stock options.


Compensation Actually Paid vs. Cumulative TSR

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income

As demonstrated by the following graph, the amount of compensation actually paid to Mr. Grandisson and the average amount of compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Grandisson) is generally aligned with the Company’s Net Income for 2020, 2021 and ~~2021.~~2023. Although Net Income decreased in 2022, compensation actually paid increased largely due to the fact that a significant portion of compensation paid to Mr. Grandisson and the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Grandisson) is comprised of equity awards, with TSR increasing by ~~41.2%~~18.3% for the year, as described above. ~~The~~For 2022, the decrease in Net Income was driven by significant volatility in the capital markets and elevated catastrophic ~~activity through 2022.~~activity. The Company does not utilize Net Income as a performance measure in the overall executive compensation program.


Compensation Actually Paid vs. Net Income

Compensation Actually Paid and Operating ROE

As demonstrated by the following graph, the amount of compensation actually paid to Mr. Grandisson and the average amount of compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Grandisson) strongly aligns with the Company’s growth in Operating ROE for the ~~three~~four years presented in the table. Compensation actually paid increased largely due to the fact that a significant portion of compensation paid to Mr. Grandisson and the Company’s NEOs as a group (excluding Mr. Grandisson) is comprised of equity awards, with TSR increasing by ~~41.2%~~18.3% for the year.

While the Company uses numerous financial and non-financial performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance for the Company’s compensation programs, the Company has determined that Operating ROE is the financial performance measure that, in the Company’s assessment, represents the most important performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the table) used by the Company to link compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to Company performance. The Company utilizes Operating ROE when setting goals in the Company’s short-term incentive compensation programs. Additionally, growth in Operating ROE is reflected in TBVPS, which is utilized in setting goals for the performance-based ~~RSUs~~restricted shares that are awarded to the Company’s NEOs.


Compensation Actually Paid vs. Operating ROE

Cumulative TSR of the Company and the Peer Group

As demonstrated by the following graph, the Company’s cumulative TSR over the ~~three year~~four-year period presented in the table was approximately ~~46%~~73%, while the cumulative TSR of the peer group presented for this purpose, the S&P 500 P&C Index, was approximately ~~52%~~68% over the ~~three~~four years presented in the table. For more information regarding the Company’s performance and the companies that the Compensation and Human Capital Committee considers when determining compensation, refer to “Compensation—Compensation ~~– Compensation~~ Discussion and ~~Analysis~~.Analysis.”


Total Shareholder Return

Pay Ratio

In accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we determined the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO relative to the median of the annual total compensation of our employees. We identified the median employee from among our global employee population (excluding the CEO) as of December 31, ~~2022.~~2023. Our global employee population included all of our full-time and part-time employees who were employed on December 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

CEO Pay Ratio — 8386 to 1

We determined each employee’s consistently applied compensation measure, which was equal to the sum of the following pay components:

▪~~2022~~2023 base salary;

▪bonuses paid during ~~2022;~~2023;

▪variable incentive compensation paid during ~~2022;~~2023; and

▪the fair value of all equity grants made during ~~2022.~~2023.

We annualized the ~~2022~~2023 base salary for full-time employees ~~that~~who were not employed by us for all of ~~2022.~~2023. Amounts paid in currencies other than U.S. dollars were converted into U.S. dollars based on the applicable exchange rate at December 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

Based on each employee’s consistently applied compensation measure, we were able to identify the median employee who was a full-time, permanent employee based in the United States.

After identifying the median employee, we calculated the median employee’s annual total compensation for ~~2022~~2023 using the same requirements applied to calculate our CEO annual total compensation as set forth in the “~~2022~~202 3 Summary Compensation Table,,” and then added the estimated value of the median employee’s health plan benefits.

Based on the foregoing, the annual total compensation calculated for the median employee for ~~2022~~2023 was ~~$141,453.~~$147,294. For purposes of the pay ratio rule, the annual total compensation calculated for our CEO for ~~2022,~~2023, was ~~$11,634,398,~~$12,676,061, as set forth in the “~~2022~~202 3 Summary Compensation Table,,” plus ~~$36,421,~~$34,843, the estimated value of our CEO’s health plan benefits, or ~~$11,670,819.~~$12,710,904.

Accordingly, for ~~2022,~~2023, our CEO to median employee pay ratio was 8386 to 1 .

Employment Arrangements

Set forth below is a summary of the material terms of the employment arrangements with each of the NEOs.

Marc Grandisson

Mr. Grandisson’s employment agreement provides for annual base salary and eligibility to participate in an annual bonus plan with a target annual bonus and other terms set by the Board. Mr. Grandisson’s current annual base salary is ~~$1,225,000,~~$1,300,000, and his target annual bonus is 200% of his annual base salary. Mr. Grandisson is entitled to participate in employee benefit programs and other fringe benefits customarily provided to similarly situated senior executives residing in Bermuda, which include housing expenses and automobile allowance.

Mr. Grandisson’s employment period under the employment agreement will end on the first to occur of: (a) the six-month anniversary of our providing notice of termination without cause to him; (b) immediately upon our providing notice of termination for cause to him; (c) the six-month anniversary of Mr. Grandisson providing notice of termination specifying his resignation with or without good reason (as defined in the employment agreement); (d) the fifth day following our providing notice of termination to him as a result of his permanent disability; and (e) the date of his death. The first of such dates is referred to as the “date of termination.”

The agreement provides that if the employment of Mr. Grandisson is terminated by us without cause or by him for good reason, he will be entitled to receive his annual base salary through the date of termination. He will also receive (i) an amount equal to his base salary for the excess of 24 months over the period, if any, of his “garden leave” (as described below), payable over six months following termination, (ii) an amount equal to the sum of (x) two times his target annual bonus plus (y) a pro-rated portion of his target annual bonus based on the number of days elapsed in the calendar year through the date of termination (less any period he is on “garden leave”), one half of which sum will be paid on the date that is 60 days following the date of termination and the remaining half of which will be paid over six months following the date of termination. Mr. Grandisson will also receive employee benefits through the date of termination, and his health insurance coverage benefits will continue for up to 18 months after the date of termination. Mr. Grandisson will be entitled to the amounts described above (other than base salary and employee benefits through the date of termination) only if he has delivered a general release of claims and he does not breach the restrictive covenants set forth in the agreement.

If Mr. Grandisson’s employment is terminated as a result of his resignation other than for good reason, he will continue to receive base salary and employee benefits through the date of termination, and we will make a cash lump sum payment to him equal to one half of the sum of (I) his “bonus amount” (which is the greater of (i) his target annual bonus for the year during which notice of termination is given, or (ii) the average of his actual annual bonus for the three years immediately preceding the year during which notice of termination is given) and (II) a pro-rated portion of the bonus amount based on the number of days elapsed in the calendar year through the date of termination (less any period he is on “garden leave”), which payment will be made 60 days following termination.

If Mr. Grandisson’s employment is terminated by us for cause, he will receive base salary and employee benefits through the date of termination. In the case of termination due to his death, his beneficiaries or estate will receive a lump sum payment equal to two times the sum of his base salary and target annual bonus, offset by proceeds of life insurance coverages provided by us. In the case of termination due to his permanent disability, he will receive an amount per annum equal to 40% of his annual base salary until he reaches age 65, offset by proceeds scheduled to be received by him from any disability insurance provided by us, and any payments scheduled to be made after the first anniversary of termination will be made on such first anniversary. In the case of termination due to his permanent disability or death, he and/or his dependents will also receive health insurance coverage benefits for a period of up to 12 months after the date of termination.

Following any notice of termination, whether by us or Mr. Grandisson, and until the date of termination, we may direct, in our sole and exclusive discretion, that Mr. Grandisson perform no duties and exercise no powers or authorities in connection with his employment. However, following any such direction, Mr. Grandisson will continue to have a duty of loyalty to us as an employee through the date of termination. This is referred to as a “garden leave” period.

Mr. Grandisson has agreed that, during the employment period and for the period of one year after the date of termination, he will not compete with us. However, if Mr. Grandisson’s termination of employment occurs as a result of his resignation other than for good reason, the noncompetition period will continue beyond the date of termination only if (i) we pay Mr. Grandisson, for each day during which the noncompetition period so continues, an amount equal to 1/365 of the sum of (A) his annual base salary, plus (B) the bonus amount (as defined above) and (C) a pro-rated portion of his bonus amount

based on the number of days elapsed in the calendar year through the date notice of termination is given; and (ii) he continues to receive his health insurance coverage for a period up to the end of the noncompetition period. Our obligation to make such payments and provide such benefits is contingent on Mr. Grandisson’s delivery of a general release of claims and his compliance with the restrictive covenants. Mr. Grandisson has also agreed not to solicit our employees or customers for a period of one year following termination. The lengths of the noncompetition and nonsolicitation periods will be reduced by any period that Mr. Grandisson is on garden leave, as described above.

François Morin, Nicolas Papadopoulo and Maamoun Rajeh

The following summarizes our employment agreements with Messrs. Morin, Papadopoulo and Rajeh (collectively referred to as the “Executives”).

Each of the employment agreements provides for annual base salary and eligibility to participate in an annual bonus plan with a target annual bonus and other terms set by the Board. Mr. Morin’s current annual base salary is ~~$750,000,~~$800,000, and his target annual bonus is ~~140%~~150% of his annual base salary. Mr. Papadopoulo’s current annual base salary is ~~$850,000,~~$900,000, and his target annual bonus is ~~165%~~185% of his annual base salary. Mr. Rajeh’s current annual base salary is ~~$780,000,~~$850,000, and his target annual bonus is ~~140%~~165% of his annual base salary. The Executives are also entitled to participate in employee benefits programs and other fringe benefits customarily provided to similarly situated senior executives residing in Bermuda, which includes housing expenses and automobile allowance.

The employment period under each of the employment agreements will end on the first to occur of: (a) the six- month anniversary of our providing notice of termination without cause; (b) immediately upon our providing notice of termination for cause; (c) the six-month anniversary of the Executive providing notice of termination specifying his resignation with or without good reason (as defined in the employment agreement); (d) the fifth day following our providing notice of termination as a result of the Executive’s permanent ~~disability;~~disability and (e) the date of the Executive’s death. The first of such dates is referred to as the “date of termination.”

The agreements provide that if the employment of the Executive is terminated by us without cause or by him for good reason, he will be entitled to receive an amount equal to his annual base salary through the six month anniversary of the date of termination. In that event, the

Executive will also receive an amount equal to the sum of (i) his target annual bonus plus (ii) a pro-rated portion of his target annual bonus based on the number of days elapsed in the calendar year through the date notice of termination is given, one half of which will be paid on the date that is 60 days following the date of termination and the remaining half of which will be paid over six months following the date of termination. The Executive will also receive employee benefits through the date of termination, and his health insurance coverage benefits will continue for up to six months after the date of termination. The Executive will be entitled to the amounts described above (other than base salary and employee benefits through the date of termination) only if he has delivered a general release of claims and he does not breach the restrictive covenants set forth in the agreement.

If the Executive’s employment is terminated as a result of his resignation other than for good reason, he will continue to receive base salary and employee benefits through the date of termination, and we will make a cash lump sum payment to him equal to one half of the sum of (I) his “bonus amount” (which is the greater of (i) his target annual bonus for the year during which notice of termination is given or (ii) the average of his actual annual bonus for the three years immediately preceding the year during which notice of termination is given), and (II) a pro-rated portion of the bonus amount based on the number of days elapsed in the calendar year through the date notice of termination is given, which payment will be made 60 days following termination.

If the Executive’s employment is terminated by us for cause, as a result of his permanent disability or upon his death, the Executive (or his beneficiaries or estate, in the case of death) will continue to receive base salary and employee benefits through the date of termination. In the case of termination due to his permanent disability or death, he and/or his dependents will also receive health insurance coverage benefits for a period of up to 12 months after the date of termination.

Following any notice of termination, whether by us or the Executive, and until the date of termination, we may direct, in our sole and exclusive discretion, that the Executive perform no duties and exercise no powers or authorities in connection with his employment. However, following any such direction, the Executive will continue to have a duty of loyalty to us as an employee through the date of termination. This is referred to as a “garden leave” period.

Each Executive has agreed that, during the employment period and for the period of one year after the date of termination, he will not compete with us. However, if the

Executive‘s termination of employment occurs as a result of his resignation other than for good reason, the noncompetition period will continue beyond the date of termination only if (i) we pay the Executive, for each day during which the noncompetition period so continues, an amount equal to 1/365 of the sum of (A) his annual base salary, plus (B) the bonus amount (as defined above) and (C) a pro-rated portion of his bonus amount based on the number of days elapsed in the calendar year through the date notice of termination is given and (ii) he continues to receive his health insurance coverage for a period up to the end of the noncompetition period. Our obligation to make such payments and provide such benefits is contingent on the Executive’s delivery of a general release of claims and his compliance with the restrictive covenants. Each Executive has also agreed not to solicit our employees or customers for a period of one year following termination. The lengths of the noncompetition and nonsolicitation periods will be reduced by any period that the Executive is on garden leave, as described above.

David E. Gansberg

Mr. Gansberg’s employment agreement, dated as of March 1, 2019, provides for an annual base salary and eligibility to participate in an annual bonus plan with a target annual bonus and other terms set by the Board. Mr. Gansberg’s current annual base salary is ~~$780,000,~~$850,000, and his target annual bonus is ~~140%~~165% of his annual base salary. He is also entitled to participate in employee benefits programs and other fringe benefits customarily provided to similarly situated senior executives.

Mr. Gansberg will also be entitled to participate in the Company’s share-based award plans, as determined by our Board.

The employment period, as automatically extended, will end on March 1, ~~2023,~~2025, and is subject to further automatic extension for successive one-year periods following the end of the term until either we or Mr. Gansberg provide at least 90 days prior notice of non-extension. The employment period may also be terminated prior to the end of the term (as it may be extended) by Mr. Gansberg for “good reason” (as defined in the agreement), by us for any reason or due to Mr. Gansberg’s death or permanent disability.

The agreement provides that if the employment of Mr. Gansberg is terminated by us without cause (including due to our providing notice of non-extension) or by him for good reason, he will be entitled to the following: (A) an amount equal to the sum of his annual base salary, his target annual bonus and a pro-rated portion of his target annual bonus for the year of termination, (B) payments under the Company’s Incentive Compensation Plan in

accordance with the terms of the plan and (C) unvested

equity awards that have been granted after the date of the agreement and held by Mr. Gansberg for at least one year will vest upon termination, (in the case of unvested performance awards, based upon the lesser of (x) target performance, or (y) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals (measured as of the latest date immediately preceding termination for which performance can be determined) (except that the vesting of any such awards shall be governed by the applicable award agreements in the event such termination of employment occurs within two years after a change in control or after attainment of retirement age)). Mr. Gansberg will be entitled to such benefits only if he has fully complied with his restrictive covenants and he has entered into a general release of claims in favor of the Company. The payments referred to in clause (A) above will be made in 12 equal monthly installments following the date of termination. Mr. Gansberg’s health insurance coverage benefits will also continue for up to 12 months after the date of such termination.

The amount otherwise payable under clause (A) above will be increased by 50% of the base salary as in effect on the date of the agreement in the event of such a termination of Mr. Gansberg’s employment prior to June 1, 2022 (and not within two years after a change in control).

Mr. Gansberg has agreed that, during the employment period and for the period of one year after the date of termination, he will not compete with us. However, if Mr. Gansberg‘s termination of employment occurs as a result of his resignation other than for good reason or pursuant to his provision of notice of non-extension, the noncompetition period will continue beyond the date of termination only if (i) we pay him, for each day during which the noncompetition period so continues, an amount equal to 1/365 of the sum of (A) his annual base salary, (B) the bonus amount (which is the greater of (I) his target annual bonus for the year of termination, or (II) the average of his actual annual bonus for the immediately preceding three years) and (C) a pro-rated portion of his bonus amount for the year of termination; and (ii) he continues to receive his health insurance coverage for a period up to the end of the noncompetition period. Our obligation to make such payments and provide such benefits is contingent on his delivery of a general release of claims and his compliance with the restrictive covenants. Mr. Gansberg has also agreed not to solicit our employees or customers for a period of one year following termination.

Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act also provides that shareholders can indicate their preference, at least once every six years, as to how frequently the Company should seek an advisory vote on NEO compensation as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules. By voting on this proposal, shareholders may indicate whether they would prefer that the Company seek future advisory votes on NEO compensation once every one, two or three years.

After careful consideration of the alternatives, the Board believes that conducting an advisory vote on NEO compensation on an annual basis is appropriate for the Company and its shareholders at this time. The Board will carefully consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of

advisory votes on named executive compensation. However, because this vote is advisory and not binding, the Board may decide that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to hold an advisory vote more or less frequently than the alternative that has been selected by our shareholders.

~~Recommendation of the Board~~


			~~THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” (ONE YEAR) FOR THIS PROPOSAL.~~

~~What am I Voting on?~~

~~Shareholders are being asked to vote upon a proposal to approve the Amended and Restated Arch Capital Group Ltd. 2007 Employee Share Purchase Plan.~~

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of all of our shares represented at the annual general meeting, voting together as a single class, will be required for approval of the Amended and Restated Arch Capital Group Ltd. 2007 Employee Share Purchase Plan.

~~Recommendation of the Board~~

~~Proposal~~

The Arch Capital Group Ltd. 2007 Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) was originally approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 11, 2007, and shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of the ESPP providing for an increase of shares on May 6, 2016.

On February 24, 2023, the Board approved, subject to shareholder approval, a further Amended and Restated 2007 Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “A&R ESPP”) to increase the number of common shares that may be purchased thereunder by 3,000,000 shares for a total of 12,750,000 shares authorized under the A&R ESPP. Other than the increase in the number of shares authorized for issuance, the ESPP and the A&R ESPP are not materially different.

As of March 7, 2023, 1,041,837 common shares remained available for issuance under the ESPP. The proposed increase in the number of shares authorized for issuance under the A&R ESPP represents approximately 1.1% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares as of March 7, 2023. The Board believes that an increase of 3,000,000 shares authorized for issuance under the A&R

ESPP represents a reasonable amount of potential equity dilution in light of the purposes of the ESPP described below. If approved, the Board believes that the additional share request will be sufficient to fund the Company’s equity compensation needs under the A&R ESPP for approximately seven years. If this proposal is rejected by shareholders, the total number of shares authorized and reserved for issuance under the ESPP will remain at 9,750,000, of which 1,041,837 remain available for issuance as of March 7, 2023. Based on our current forecasts and estimated participation rates, if the increase is not approved, it is anticipated that the ESPP will run out of available shares in approximately one and one-half years.

~~The following summary of the A&R ESPP is qualified in its entirety by express reference to the text of the A&R ESPP, which is attached as~~ ~~Annex B~~—~~Amended and Restated Arch Capital Group Ltd. 2007 Employee Share Purchase Planto this Proxy Statement.~~

The purpose of the A&R ESPP is to give employees of Arch Capital and its subsidiaries an opportunity to purchase common shares through payroll deductions, thereby encouraging employees to share in the economic growth and success of Arch Capital and its subsidiaries.

The A&R ESPP will be administered by the Compensation Committee of our Board. Subject to the express provisions of the A&R ESPP, the Compensation Committee has the power to determine the terms and conditions of each offering of common shares to employees thereunder. The Compensation Committee also has authority to adopt and revise rules, guidelines and practices governing the plan, to interpret the terms and provisions of the plan and any offering made thereunder, and to otherwise supervise the administration of the plan.

After the amendment and restatement, a total of 4,041,837 common shares will be reserved for issuance under the A&R ESPP. The number of such shares is subject to equitable adjustment by the Compensation Committee in the event of stock dividends, recapitalizations and other similar corporate events. The per share closing price of our common shares on March 7, 2023 was $70.99.

All employees of the Company or any of its participating subsidiaries will be eligible to purchase common shares under the plan. The participating subsidiaries will be those designated by the Compensation Committee to participate in the A&R ESPP. Up to approximately 4,450 employees are currently eligible to participate in the A&R ESPP.

The plan is designed to qualify as an “employee share purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The plan will allow participating employees to purchase common shares through payroll withholding. The plan provides for consecutive six-month offering periods (or other periods of not more than 27 months as determined by the Compensation Committee) under which participating employees can elect to have amounts withheld from their total compensation during the offering period and applied to purchase common shares of the Company at the end of the period. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee before an offering period, the purchase price will be 85% of the fair market value of the common shares at the beginning of the offering period. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, the maximum number of common shares that may be purchased by an employee in any offering is 9,000 shares, subject to equitable adjustment as described above. In addition, applicable Code limitations specify, in general, that a participant’s right to purchase shares under the plan cannot accumulate at a rate in excess of $25,000 (based on the value at the beginning of the applicable offering periods) per calendar year.

A participant may elect to have payroll deductions made under the A&R ESPP for the purchase of common shares in an amount not to exceed 20% of the participant’s compensation. Compensation for purposes of the A&R ESPP means total cash compensation, including regular pay, overtime pay, shift premium, commissions and annual bonuses, and it also includes pre-tax employee contributions under a Section 401(k) plan or Section 125 plan. Contributions to the A&R ESPP will be on an after-tax basis. A participant may terminate his or her payroll deductions at any time.

A share purchase account will be established for each participant in the A&R ESPP. Amounts deducted from participants’ paychecks will be credited to their accounts. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, no interest will accrue with respect to any amounts credited to the accounts. As of the last day of each offering period, the amount credited to a participant’s share purchase account will be used to purchase the largest number of whole shares (not to exceed 9,000 shares, subject to equitable adjustment as described above) at the price as determined above. The common shares will be purchased directly from Arch Capital. No brokerage or other fees will be charged to participants. Any balance in a participant’s account will be returned to the participant, except where such remaining balance represents a fractional share. In such cases, the fractional share balance shall be carried forward and applied, subject to the participating employee’s withdrawal right, toward the purchase of additional shares by the participating employee in the subsequent offering.

If the aggregate share purchase account to be used for the purchase of common shares as of the last day of an offering period would purchase more shares than are reserved for purchase and sale under the A&R ESPP, the number of shares which would otherwise be purchased for each participant will be reduced proportionately, the remaining account balance of each participant will be distributed and the A&R ESPP will terminate automatically upon the distribution of the remaining account balances.

A participant may withdraw from participation in the A&R ESPP at any time during an offering period by providing notice to Arch Capital. Upon withdrawal, a participant’s account balance will be distributed as soon as practicable and no common shares will be purchased. Rights to purchase common shares under the A&R ESPP are exercisable only by the participant and are not transferable.

~~With respect to employees of the Company or any subsidiary who reside or work outside the United States,~~

the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, adopt rules or procedures relating to the operation and administration of the A&R ESPP to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws and procedures. The Compensation Committee may also, where it deems it appropriate, establish one or more sub-plans to reflect such amended or varied rules and procedures.

The A&R ESPP will terminate when all common shares authorized to be issued under it have been exhausted. The Board may discontinue the A&R ESPP at any time and may amend it from time to time. Amendments may be made without shareholder approval, except as required to satisfy Section 423 of the Code.

~~United States Federal Income Tax Consequences~~

The following is a summary of the United States federal income tax consequences to employees participating in the A&R ESPP and to Arch Capital and its subsidiaries, based upon current provisions of the Code, the treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, and does not address the consequences under any other applicable tax laws. The provisions of the Code, regulations thereunder and related interpretations are complicated and their impact in any one case may depend upon the particular circumstances relating thereto.

A participating employee will not recognize income at the time a purchase right is granted to such employee at the commencement of an offering period or when the employee exercises such right and purchases common shares at the end of an offering period. An employee will be taxed on amounts withheld from salary under the A&R ESPP as if actually received, and Arch Capital or one of its participating subsidiaries will be entitled to deduct a corresponding amount.

If a participating employee disposes of shares purchased pursuant to the plan after one year from the end of the applicable offering period and two years from the beginning of the applicable offering period, the employee must include in gross income as compensation (as ordinary income and not as capital gain) for the taxable year of disposition an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the beginning of the applicable offering period over the purchase price computed on the first day of the offering period or (2) the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of disposition over their purchase price. Thus, if the one and two-year holding periods described above are met, the participating employee’s ordinary compensation income will be limited to the

discount available on the first day of the applicable offering period. If the amount recognized upon such a disposition by way of sale or exchange of the shares exceeds the purchase price plus the amount, if any, included in income as ordinary compensation income, the excess will be long-term capital gain. If the one- and two-year holding periods described above are met, then Arch Capital and its participating subsidiaries will not be entitled to any income tax deduction.

If the participating employee disposes of the shares within two years from the beginning of the applicable offering period or one year from the end of the applicable offering period, the employee will recognize ordinary income at the time of disposition which will equal the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares on the date the participating employee purchases the shares (~~i.e~~., the end of the applicable offering period) over the amount paid for the shares. Arch Capital or a participating subsidiary that employs the employee will generally be entitled to a corresponding income tax deduction. The excess, if any, of the amount recognized on disposition of the shares over their fair market value on the date of purchase (~~i.e.~~, the end of the applicable offering period) will be short-term capital gain, unless the participating employee’s holding period for the shares (which will begin at the time of purchase at the end of the offering period) is more than one year. If the participating employee disposes of the shares for less than the purchase price for the shares, the difference between the amount recognized and such purchase price will be a long- or short-term capital loss, depending upon the holding period for the shares.

~~New Plan Benefits~~

~~The amount of benefits in the future under the A&R ESPP is not currently determinable.~~

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board

The Audit Committee assists the Board in monitoring (1) the integrity of our financial statements, (2) the qualifications and independence of the independent registered public accounting firm, (3) the performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm and (4) the compliance by the Company with legal and regulatory requirements. The Audit Committee is involved in the selection of the audit engagement partner, and also oversees the Board’s responsibilities relating to the operational (including IT, business continuity and data security) risk affairs of the Company.

It is not the responsibility of the Audit Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that Arch Capital’s financial statements are in all material respects complete and accurate and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. The Company’s independent public registered accounting firm is responsible for expressing an opinion on these financial statements based on their audit. It is also not the responsibility of the Audit Committee to assure compliance with laws and regulations or with any codes or standards of conduct or related policies adopted by Arch Capital from time to time which seek to ensure that the business of Arch Capital is conducted in an ethical and legal manner.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements of Arch Capital and its subsidiaries set forth in Item 8 of our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report, management’s annual assessment of the effectiveness of Arch Capital’s internal control over financial reporting and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP’s opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, with management of Arch Capital and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent registered public accounting firm for Arch Capital.

The Audit Committee has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding communications with the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP their independence.

Based on the review and discussions with management of Arch Capital and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP referred to above, and other matters the Audit Committee deemed relevant and appropriate, the Audit Committee has recommended to the Board that Arch Capital publish the consolidated financial statements of Arch Capital and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report.



						AUDIT COMMITTEE Eileen Mallesch (Chair) ~~(as of February 27, 2023)~~ Francis Ebong Laurie S. Goodman Moira Kilcoyne ~~Brian S. Posner~~ Eugene S. Sunshine

Principal Auditor Fees and Services

The following table summarizes professional services rendered to the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the fiscal years ended December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, and ~~2021.~~2022.

The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of these services is compatible with maintaining PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP’s independence. The Audit Committee approves all audit and permissible non-audit services performed for us by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm. Prior to engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted and the Audit Committee requires the independent registered public accounting firm and management to report actual fees compared to the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee delegates pre-approval authority to the Chair of the Audit Committee or, in the event of the Chair’s unavailability, to one or more of its independent members. To the extent applicable, the member to whom such authority is delegated reports, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee of the Board has the sole authority to appoint the independent registered public accounting firm. As required by Bermuda law, the shareholders are required to appoint the Audit Committee’s selection of the independent auditors. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 1995. The Audit Committee of the Board and the Board believe that the retention of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, ~~2023,~~2024, is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The Audit Committee of the Board proposes and recommends that the shareholders appoint the firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to serve as independent registered public accounting firm of Arch Capital for the year ending December 31, ~~2023.~~2024. Unless otherwise directed by the shareholders, proxies will be voted for the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to audit our consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, ~~2023.~~2024. A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will attend the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement and respond to appropriate questions.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of all of our issued and outstanding common shares represented by shareholders present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting will be required for the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, ~~2023.~~2024.

If you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the holder of record of your shares and present it at the meeting.

The presence of two or more persons representing, in person or by proxy, including proxies properly submitted by mail, telephone or internet, at least a majority of the voting power of our shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum. If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting may be adjourned until a quorum is obtained. The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares represented by shareholders present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting will be required for approval of each of the proposals, except for Item 1 as described below and ~~Items~~Item 2 ~~and 3,~~ which ~~are~~is advisory and dodoes not have a required vote.

With respect to Item 1, in any uncontested election of directors, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast will be required to elect each director. In the event of a director election in which the number of director nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast for such directors. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that in an uncontested election, any nominee for director who fails to receive a majority of the votes cast in such election will be obligated to tender his or her resignation to the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee or other Committee designated by our Board will consider any such resignation and make a recommendation to the Board whether to accept or reject the resignation. The Board would then be required

to accept or reject the resignation within 90 days

following certification of the election results, taking into account all relevant facts and circumstances, and would publicly disclose its reasons if the resignation is not accepted.

An automated system administered by our distribution and tabulation agent will tabulate votes cast by proxy at the Annual Meeting, and our inspector will tabulate votes cast during the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes (i.e., shares held by a broker which are represented at the meeting but with respect to which such broker does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular proposal) will be counted for purposes of determining whether or not a quorum exists. Abstentions will not be considered in determining the number of votes necessary for approval of Item 1 and will be considered in determining the number of votes necessary for approval of Items ~~4, 5~~3 and 6.4.

Several of our officers and directors will be present at the Annual Meeting and available to respond to questions. Our independent auditors are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Your proxy authorizes another person to vote your shares on your behalf at the Annual Meeting.

If your valid proxy is received by internet, telephone or mail before the deadline, the persons designated as proxies will vote your shares per your directions. We have designated two of our officers as proxies for the ~~2023~~2024 Annual Meeting—Marc Grandisson and François Morin.

Should any other matter not referred to in this Proxy Statement properly come before the meeting, the

designated proxies will vote in their discretion. If any director nominee should refuse or be unable to serve, an event that is not anticipated, your shares will be voted for the person designated by the Board to replace such nominee or, alternatively, the Board may reduce the number of directors on the Board.

Registered Shareholders

When a valid proxy is received, but specific choices are not indicated, the designated proxies will vote as recommended by the Board.

Beneficial Shareholders

It is critical that you cast your vote if you want it to count in the election of directors and most other items on the agenda. Under applicable regulations, if you hold your shares beneficially and do not instruct your bank, broker or other holder of record on how to vote your shares, the

holder of record will only have discretion to vote your uninstructed shares on the appointment of our

independent registered public accounting firm (Item 5)3). The holder of record will not have discretion to vote your uninstructed shares on the election of ~~five~~two Class ~~I directors~~II Directors (Item 1), the advisory vote to approve NEO compensation (Item 2), the advisory vote of preferred frequency for advisory vote on named executive officer compensation (Item 3), approval of the Amended and Restated Arch Capital Group Ltd. 2007 Employee Share Purchase Plan (Item 4) or the election of certain individuals as Designated Company Directors of certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries, as required by our bye-laws (Item 6)4), resulting in “broker non-votes” on those items.

You may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised.

Registered Shareholders

If you voted by mail, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is exercised by executing and delivering a timely and valid later-dated proxy, by voting by ballot at the meeting or by giving written notice to the Secretary. If you voted via the internet or by phone, you may change your vote with a timely and valid later internet or telephone vote, or by voting by ballot at the meeting.

Attendance at the meeting will not have the effect of revoking a proxy unless (1) you give proper written notice of revocation to the Secretary before the proxy is exercised, or (2) you vote by ballot at the meeting.

Beneficial Shareholders

Follow the specific directions provided by your bank, broker or other holder of record to change or revoke any voting instructions you have already provided. Alternatively, you may vote your shares by ballot at the meeting if you obtain a legal proxy from your holder of record and present it at the meeting.

Under our bye-laws, if the votes conferred by shares of the Company, 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, subject to certain exceptions, 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. 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 our bye-laws because of shares that may be attributed to that person under the ~~Code.~~

Code. Notwithstanding the provisions of our 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 by the shares of 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 shares of Arch Capital entitled to vote generally at an election of directors.

In order to implement our bye-laws, we will assume that all shareholders are U.S. persons unless we receive assurances satisfactory to us that they are not U.S. persons.

Proxies are being solicited by and on behalf of the Board. In addition to the use of the mail, proxies may be solicited by personal interview, phone, telegram and facsimile, in each case by our directors, officers and employees.

The Company is paying the entire costs of the solicitation. We have retained MacKenzie Partners, Inc. to aid in the solicitation of proxies and verify records related to the

solicitation for a fee of approximately $13,500 plus expenses. We will reimburse brokerage houses, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians for their costs in forwarding proxy materials. We may request by phone, facsimile, mail, electronic mail or other means the return of the proxy cards. Please contact MacKenzie Partners at 1-800-322-2885 with any questions you may have regarding our proposals.

We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, registered shareholders, who have the same address and last name and who receive either Notices or paper copies of the proxy materials in the mail, will receive only one copy of our proxy materials, or a single envelope containing the Notices for all shareholders at that address. This consolidated method of delivery will continue unless one or more of these shareholders notifies us that they would like to receive individual copies of proxy materials. This procedure reduces our printing costs and postage fees. Shareholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards or Notices that include each shareholder’s unique control number for voting the shares held in each account.

Registered Shareholderswho wish to discontinue householding and receive separate copies of proxy materials may notify Broadridge by calling 1-866-540-7095, or send a written request to the Company’s Secretary at the address of our principal office.

Beneficial Shareholdersmay request information about householding from your bank, broker or other holder of record.

To be included in our Proxy Statement and form of proxy relating to the ~~2024~~2025 annual general meeting of shareholders, all proposals of security holders intended to be presented at the ~~2024~~2025 annual general meeting must be received by the Company not later than November ~~24, 2023~~28, 2024, and must comply with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act.

For any proposal that is not submitted for inclusion in next year’s Proxy Statement (as described in the preceding paragraph) but is instead sought to be presented directly at next year’s annual general meeting, ~~the rules of the SEC permit management to vote proxies in its discretion if we do not receive notice of the proposal on or before the deadline for advance notice set forth in~~ our ~~bye-laws as described below.~~

~~Our~~ bye-laws provide that any shareholder desiring to make a proposal or nominate a director at an annual general meeting must provide written notice of such proposal or nomination to the Secretary of the Company

at least 50 days prior to the date of the annual general meeting at which such proposal or nomination is proposed to be voted upon (or, if less than 55 days’ notice of an annual general meeting is given, shareholder proposals and nominations must be delivered no later than the close of business of the seventh day following the day notice was mailed). The date of our ~~2024~~2025 annual general meeting is expected to be held no earlier than May ~~2, 2024~~6, 2025, and no later than May ~~4, 2024.~~8, 2025. As a result, any shareholder desiring to make a proposal or nominate a director at the ~~2024~~2025 annual general meeting must provide written notice of such proposal or nomination no

later than March 1317 through March ~~15, 2024,~~19, 2025, as applicable in order to comply with our bye-laws (except see below regarding nominations pursuant to the universal proxy rules). Any such proposal or nomination

must include the information required under our bye-laws with respect to each proposal or nomination and the shareholder making such proposal or nomination.

In addition, to comply with the universal proxy rules under the Exchange Act, shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees at the ~~2024~~2025 annual general meeting generally must provide written notice no later than 60 calendar days prior to the anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting date. As a result, any shareholder desiring to nominate a director at the ~~2024~~2025 annual general meeting must provide written notice of such nomination no later than March ~~5, 2024.~~10, 2025. Such notice also must set forth the information required by Rule

14a-19 under the Exchange Act in addition to the information required under our bye-laws.

A shareholder proponent must be a shareholder of the Company who was a shareholder of record both at the time of giving of notice and at the time of the annual general meeting and who is entitled to vote at the annual general meeting.

~~B-1~~			~~\| 2023 PROXY STATEMENT~~


~~B-3~~			~~\| 2023 PROXY STATEMENT~~


~~B-5~~			~~\| 2023 PROXY STATEMENT~~

In presenting our results for purposes of compensation determinations, we include and discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Regulation G. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, which may be defined differently by other companies, are important for an understanding of our overall results of operations and financial condition. However, they should not be viewed as a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP.

After-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders whichis defined as net income available to Arch common shareholders, excluding net realized gains or losses (which includes changes in the allowance for credit losses on financial assets and net impairment losses recognized in earnings), equity in net income or loss of investment funds accounted for using the equity method, net foreign exchange gains or losses, transaction costs and other, income taxes ~~and~~(which for the 2023 fourth quarter includes a one-time deferred income tax benefit related to the enactment of Bermuda’s new corporate income tax), loss on redemption of preferred ~~shares.~~shares, and the use of annualized operating return on average common equity. The table below presents the reconciliation of net income available to Arch common shareholders to after-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders.

Annualized operating return on average common equity represents after-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders divided by average common shareholders’ equity during the period. Management uses Operating ROE as a key measure of the return generated to our common shareholders.

The following table summarizes our consolidated financial data, including a reconciliation of net income available to Arch common shareholders to after-tax operating income available to Arch common shareholders. Each line item reflects the impact of our percentage ownership of Somers’ common equity through June 30, 2021. In July 2021, the Company announced the completion of the previously disclosed acquisition of Somers by Greysbridge Holdings Ltd., (“Greysbridge”). Based on the governing documents of Greysbridge, the Company has concluded that, while it will retain significant influence over Somers, Somers no longer constitutes a variable interest entity. Effective July 1, 2021, Arch no longer consolidates the results of Somers in its consolidated financial statements and footnotes.

Tangible book value per common share represents common shareholders’ equity available to Arch less goodwill and intangible assets (excluding amounts attributable to non-controlling interests). We believe that tangible book value per common share is useful to investors because it provides a more accurate measure of the realizable value of shareholder returns by excluding the impact of goodwill and intangible assets.

Underwriting income represents the pre-tax profitability of our underwriting operations and includes net premiums earned plus other underwriting income, less losses and loss adjustment expenses, acquisition expenses and other operating expenses. Other operating expenses include those operating expenses that are incremental and/or directly attributable to or individual underwriting operations. Underwriting income or loss does not incorporate items included in the corporate segment. While these measures are presented in note 4, “Segment Information,” on pages ~~111-117~~114-120 to the consolidated financial statements in our ~~2022~~2023 Annual Report, they are considered non-GAAP financial measures when presented elsewhere on a consolidated basis.

The following table provides a reconciliation of book value per common share to tangible book value per common share:
