     This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed on Schedule TO (as amended and supplemented, the “Schedule TO”) by Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, a Canadian corporation (“Fairfax”), and Fairfax Investments USA Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Fairfax (“Purchaser”). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), of Odyssey Re Holdings Corp, a Delaware corporation (“Odyssey Re”), other than Shares owned by Fairfax and its subsidiaries, at a purchase price of $65.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding of taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 23, 2009, as amended and supplemented (the “Offer to Purchase”), a copy of which is attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibit (a)(1)(i), and the related Letter of Transmittal, a copy of which is attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibit (a)(1)(ii) (which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the “Offer”). All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 4 without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.

     The following amendments to Items 11 and 12 of the Schedule TO are hereby made.

Item 11.  Additional Information.

     Section a(5) of Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

“Litigation.

     On October 7, 2009, the directors of Odyssey Re, Odyssey Re (as a nominal defendant), Fairfax and Purchaser (collectively, the “Defendants”) were served with a purported stockholder derivative and class action complaint, dated October 7, 2009, filed in the Superior Court of Connecticut, Judicial District of Stamford/Norwalk (the “Court”). The action, captioned CapGrowth Partners v. V. Prem Watsa, et al., Docket No. CV09-6002152-S (the “CapGrowth Complaint”), purports to assert claims against the members of Odyssey Re’s board of directors for alleged breaches of their fiduciary duties to Odyssey Re’s stockholders in connection with the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Offer to Purchase, and a claim against Fairfax and Purchaser for allegedly aiding and abetting such alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. The CapGrowth Complaint seeks, among other relief, a declaratory judgment and monetary and/or rescissory damages. The plaintiff also sought, by separate application, a temporary restraining order and expedited discovery and a temporary injunction as to the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Offer to Purchase. The Defendants believe that the claims made in the CapGrowth Complaint are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against this action.

     On October 14, 2009, the Court held a hearing on the plaintiff’s motion for expedited injunctive relief.

     On October 16, 2009, the Court issued a Memorandum of Decision Re: Plaintiff’s Application for a Temporary Restraining Order, Expedited Discovery and Temporary Injunction (the “Memorandum of Decision”) denying the plaintiff’s application for a temporary restraining order, expedited discovery and temporary injunction.

     The CapGrowth Complaint and the Memorandum of Decision are filed as Exhibits (a)(5)(i) and (a)(5)(ii), respectively, to and incorporated in the Schedule TO.”
