FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS:

Except for historical information, this presentation may include forward looking
statements which are subject to certain risk factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those presented in the forward looking
statements. Some of the risk factors that could affect future results are
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Because we have a limited operating history,
most of the statements contained in this document relating to Quanta and its
business, including statements relating to our competitive strengths and
business strategies, are forward-looking statements.

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND NON-GAAP MEASURES:

DEFINITIONS AND PRESENTATION. All financial information contained herein is
unaudited by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, except
for the financial data relating to the year-ended December 31, 2005, which was
derived from the Company's audited financial statements. Unless otherwise noted,
all data is in U.S. dollars thousands, except for per share, percentage and
ratio information.

GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. In
presenting the Company's results, management has included and discussed certain
"non-GAAP financial measures", as such term is defined in Regulation G.
Management believes that these non-GAAP measures, which may be defined
differently by other companies, better explain the Company's results of
operations in a manner that allows for a more complete understanding of the
underlying trends in the Company's business. However, these measures should not
be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with GAAP. The
reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to their respective most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures in accordance with Regulation G is
included in this financial supplement.

OPERATING INCOME (LOSS) BEFORE TAX (a non-GAAP financial measure): Operating
income (loss) before tax is an internal performance measure used by the Company
in the management of its operations and represents income (loss) before tax
excluding, as applicable, net realized investment gains or losses and net
foreign exchange gains or losses and other items of income and expense not
attributable to its operating segments. The Company excludes net realized
investment gains or losses and after-tax net foreign exchange gains or losses
from its calculation of operating income (loss) before tax because the amount of
these gains or losses is heavily influenced by, and fluctuates in part,
according to investment and foreign exchange market conditions. The Company
believes these amounts are largely independent of its underwriting and technical
services decision making process and profitability and including them distorts
the analysis of trends in its operations. In addition to presenting net income
or loss determined in accordance with GAAP, the Company believes that showing
operating income (loss) before tax enables investors, analysts, rating agencies,
clients and other users of its financial information to more easily analyze the
Company's results of operations in a manner similar to how management analyzes
the Company's underlying business performance. Operating income (loss) before
tax should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP net income (loss).

UNDERWRITING INCOME (LOSS) (a GAAP financial measure): Underwriting income
(loss) is a measure of profitability of the Company's underwriting segments that
takes into account net premiums earned and other insurance related income as
revenue and net loss and loss expenses, acquisition costs and underwriting
related general and administrative expenses as expenses. Underwriting income
(loss) is the difference between revenues and expense items. Underwriting income
(loss) includes expenses charged by the Company's technical services segment.

TECHNICAL SERVICES INCOME (a GAAP financial measure): Technical services income
is a measure of profitability of the Company's technical services segment that
takes into account technical services income and other technical
services-related income as revenue, and direct technical service costs and
technical services general and administrative expenses as expenses. Technical
services income is the difference between revenues and expense items. Technical
Services income includes revenues charged to the Company's underwriting
segments.

ANNUALIZED OPERATING RETURN ON AVERAGE SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (ROAE) (a non-GAAP
financial measure): Annualized Operating Return on Average Shareholders' Equity
is calculated using 1) operating income, as defined above and 2) average
shareholders' equity. Average shareholders' equity is calculated as the
arithmetic average on an annual basis for the stated periods. The Company
presents ROAE as a measure that it is commonly recognized as a standard of
performance by investors, analysts, rating agencies and other users of its
financial information. All three month ROAE percentages are calculated on an
annualized basis by multiplying the percentage returns by a factor of four in
order to provide a performance measure that is comparable to equivalent measures
for annual periods presented.

UNDERWRITING RATIOS (a GAAP financial measures): The Company uses underwriting
ratios as measures of performance. The loss ratio is calculated by dividing net
losses and loss expense by net premiums earned. The acquisition expense ratio is
calculated by dividing acquisition expenses by net premiums earned. The general
and administrative expense ratio is the calculated by dividing underwriting
related general and administrative expenses by net premiums earned. The combined
ratio is the sum of the loss ratio, the acquisition expense ratio and the
general and administrative expense ratio. We believe that these financial ratios
appropriately reflect the profitability of our underwriting segments. A combined
ratio of less than 100% indicates an underwriting profit and over 100%, an
underwriting loss. Because we have a limited operating history, our combined
ratio may be subject to significant volatility and may not be indicative of
future profitability.

DILUTED BOOK VALUE PER SHARE (a non-GAAP financial measure): The Company has
included diluted book value per share because it takes into account the effect
of dilutive securities; therefore, the Company believes it is a better measure
of calculating shareholder returns than book value per share.

TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE PER SHARE AND DILUTED TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE PER SHARE
(non-GAAP financial measures): The Company has included tangible book value per
share and diluted tangible book value per share because it believes it provides
a clear measure of the value of its tangible shareholders' equity on a per share
basis. Tangible book value excludes goodwill and other intangible assets as
itemized in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. A reconciliation from
tangible book value per share to book value per share is provided on page 6 of
this supplement.

     The summary statements of operations are presented on a classified basis in
order to show the Company's segment components of operating (loss) income before
tax.

FOOTNOTES:

     1.   The Company's underwriting segments comprise, and is an aggregation
          of, its Specialty Insurance and Specialty Reinsurance reportable
          segments as presented on pages 8 to 11.

     2.   Underwriting loss and technical services income include amounts
          charged by the technical services segment to the underwriting
          segments. An elimination of these intersegment revenues and expenses
          and a reconciliation to net loss as presented in the Company's
          Consolidated Statements of Operations appears on pages 8 to 11.

     3.   Other income and expenses is calculated as the sum of depreciation of
          fixed assets and amortization of intangible assets and other income
          and expense not attributable to a specific reportable segment.

1.   Net cash flows from the over-allotment of our preferred share offering in
     January 2006 were as follows: proceeds from issuance of preferred shares,
     net of underwriters' discounts of $0.1 million, were $3.2 million.
     Offsetting this, in March 2006 we paid $1.9 million dividend on our
     preferred shares.

FOOTNOTE:

1.   Due to a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the
     assumed net exercise of options and warrants under the treasury stock
     method has been excluded, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Due
     to the exercise price of all of the Company's outstanding options exceeding
     the average market price of the Company's shares for the three and six
     months ended June 30, 2005, the assumed net exercise of options and
     warrants under the treasury stock method has been excluded, as the effect
     would have been anti-dilutive.

2.   The assumed net exercise of options and warrants under the treasury stock
     method has been included in the calculation of diluted book value and
     diluted tangible book value per share.

3.   As of June 30, 2005, all outstanding options had an exercise price above
     the closing market share price, therefore the outstanding options have not
     been included in the calculation of the diluted number of shares for the
     calculation of diluted book value and diluted tangible book value per
     share.

previously a reportable segment, is aggregated with the Company's specialty

ended June 30, 2005 have been restated to conform with the presentation for the
three months ended June 30, 2006.
