                             February 17, 2000


To the Shareholders of LaSalle Re Limited:

         The enclosed amended proxy card replaces the proxy card that was
mailed to you on January 14, 2000 with the Notice of Annual General Meeting
dated January 14, 2000 (the "Notice") and the accompanying Proxy Statement
dated January 14, 2000 (the "Proxy Statement") of LaSalle Re Holdings
Limited (the "Company") furnished in connection with the solicitation of
proxies on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company to be voted at
the Annual General Meeting of the Company to be held at the offices of
Conyers Dill & Pearman, Fourth Floor Board Room, Clarendon House, Church
Street, Hamilton, Bermuda, on February 17, 2000 at 9:00 a.m., local time,
and at any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purposes set forth
in the Notice, and to transact such other business as may properly come
before the Annual General Meeting.

         Although the Notice and Proxy Statement announced that the Board
of Directors of the Company had nominated Robert V. Deutsch for the
position of Director, and also included complete information about Mr.
Deutsch, the proxy card that was mailed to you on January 14, 2000 with the
Notice and Proxy Statement inadvertently omitted the name of Mr. Deutsch
from the list of director nominees shown on the card.

         PLEASE PROMPTLY SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED AMENDED PROXY
IN THE RETURN ENVELOPE FURNISHED FOR THAT PURPOSE, WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN
TO ATTEND THE MEETING.

         IF YOU LATER DESIRE TO REVOKE YOUR PROXY FOR ANY REASON, YOU MAY
DO SO IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED IN THE PROXY STATEMENT. IF YOU HAVE ALREADY
MAILED THE PROXY THAT YOU RECEIVED WITH THE PROXY STATEMENT AND RETURN THE
ACCOMPANYING AMENDED PROXY, THE AMENDED PROXY WILL AUTOMATICALLY SUPERSEDE
THE PRIOR PROXY. IF YOU HAVE MAILED THE PRIOR PROXY AND DO NOT RETURN THE
AMENDED PROXY, YOUR PRIOR PROXY CANNOT BE VOTED FOR THE ELECTION OF ROBERT
V. DEUTSCH AS A DIRECTOR OF THE COMPANY.

         FOR INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CANDIDATES WHO HAVE BEEN NOMINATED
AS DIRECTORS, THE USE OF THE PROXY AND OTHER RELATED MATTERS, YOU ARE URGED
TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT.

                                          By Order of the Board of Directors,

                                          Guy D. Hengesbaugh
                                          Chief Executive Officer and President

January 24, 2000

         PLEASE VOTE, DATE AND SIGN THE ENCLOSED AMENDED PROXY AND RETURN
IT PROMPTLY IN THE ENCLOSED ENVELOPE.
