**Signature of Reporting Person Date

Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Shares acquired upon exercise of stock options.
(2) This Form 5 is to correct certain reporting errors in previously filed Form 4s, including to report a sale in connection with a stock option exercise already reported and to properly code, on Table II, the option exercise as an exempt transaction. As part of its compliance process, the staff of PXRE prepares all Form 4 filings on behalf of its directors and officers. It has been discovered that PXRE's staff was incorrectly preparing certain Form 4's involving the concurrent exercise of stock options and sale of the common shares received upon such exercise, by failing to include the concurrent sale of the common shares in the Form 4 reporting the option exercise. The reported ownership amounts were not affected by this error.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space provided is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
