Through its initial acquisition, MLC has positioned itself favorably in the fast-growing and increasingly
important CLO market
• In November 2020, MLC completed a transaction with Garrison Investment Management LLC whereby ML Management
  became the advisor for two ramped middle market CLOs for a purchase price of $3.0 million
• ML Management is entitled to receive an annual management fee of 0.50%‐0.60% of aggregate gross assets, paid
  quarterly, and subject to reductions based on caps, transaction fees, and fee‐sharing arrangements
          – In connection with the CLO transaction, in November 2020, ML Management applied for and received approval
            from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to act as a registered investment advisor in the U.S.
          – The advisor status paves the way for ML Management to manage assets for U.S. clients across other funds and
            transactions (Capitala, Ability, etc.)
• Mount Logan is now unlocking incremental value in the acquired CLOs via the below steps:

Ability Insurance – Overview
Ability Insurance Company is a Nebraska-domiciled long-term care insurance company that will leverage
Mount Logan’s asset management capabilities and serve as MLC’s foundation to expand into insurance
  • In May 2021, MLC announced its intention to acquire 100% of the equity of Ability Insurance Company (“AIC” or “Ability”), a
    Nebraska-domiciled long-term care (“LTC”) insurance company, from Advantage Capital Holdings LLC (“A-CAP” or the “Seller”)
  • MLC is proposed to purchase AIC at a discount to statutory book value for a total non-cash consideration of $20.0m
                – Consists of: (i) a $15.0m unsecured promissory note; and (ii) $5.0m in common shares of MLC
  • AIC has two blocks of LTC policies originated before 2005 that are now in run-off (no longer originating new policies)
         – Ability is unique in that its LTC portfolio’s risk has been largely re-insured to third parties, and Ability is no longer
           active in insuring or re-insuring new LTC risk
         – In conjunction with the transaction, AIC will be contributing $10.0m of cash or assets to reinsure $150.0m of annuities,
           beginning a transition of AIC from a LTC insurer to a reinsurer of low-risk, fixed cost annuities
                – Will increase investable AUM by $150.0m over the first six months following the completion of the transaction
                – As AIC’s long-term care exposure matures, AIC will continue to build its annuity reinsurance business
                – MLC is expected to be able to purchase annuities from the seller, A-CAP, to diversify/de-risk the insurance business
                   and grow assets organically over time
  • The acquisition of Ability by Mount Logan will combine two companies providing products and services that Mount Logan
    believes are, and will continue to be, in high demand – insurance solutions and asset management
         – AIC has approximately $900m of investment assets(1) of which ML Management will become the investment advisor
           for the private credit and CLO assets
         – The stronger capital base and alignment will allow Mount Logan to scale asset and liability origination for the benefit of
           Ability’s policy holders as well as Mount Logan and its shareholders

           Pending approval by the Nebraska Department of Insurance and a public comment period, the
                              acquisition of Ability is expected to close in Q3 2021(2)

Ability Insurance – Key Growth Initiatives
Mount Logan has a developed an in-depth business plan alongside the Seller on how to create significant
value – for both Mount Logan shareholders and AIC’s policy holders
                       MLC expects to increase gross portfolio yield by >100 bps over 18 months by leveraging MLC’s
                       private credit sourcing capabilities
 Improve Portfolio     • MLC will reallocate the portfolio to higher yielding asset classes, in particular, attractive private credit opportunities
  to Increase Yield    • MLC will leverage A-CAP’s expertise to continue to manage real estate investments
                       • New annuity assets of $150.0m will provide greater leverage to the platform and allow MLC to transform the overall
                         portfolio largely by deploying new capital rather than liquidating existing positions

                        MLC performed a deep-dive due diligence on the existing asset portfolio and actuarial risk,
                        identified at-risk assets, and created a backstop structure
     Downside           •   Portfolio is well diversified by position and asset class across rated, senior positions
                        •   Vast majority of assets are rated investment grade by major ratings agencies
     Protection         •   Identified “watch list” assets only account for a limited percentage of total book value
                        •   AIC’s morbidity risk, or risk that claims exceed expectations, is reinsured to third parties – mitigating the largest risk
                            factor in underwriting

                        MLC is acquiring Ability at a significant discount to statutory book value reflective of limited
                        universe of buyers of LTC risk, for which MLC was uniquely positioned to mitigate structurally
 Pivot to Annuities     • Due to more attractive risk of annuities, MLC is expected to benefit from an expansion of valuation to near book value
                        • Management eventually expects a valuation of roughly 1.0x book value as the portfolio is transitioning from a long-
    will Unlock           term care (with limited morbidity risk) to an annuity portfolio and the combination of leveraging ML Management’s
     Valuation            investment expertise and the new asset growth will scale the vehicle and enhance the overall gross and net yield
                          profile
                        • On a P/B multiple basis, public market comparables typically trade at a significant premium compared to MLC’s
                          proposed valuation of Ability

                                                                                                                                         NEO:MLC | 25
