This prospectus is part of a registration statement we filed with the Commission using a shelf registration process. Under the shelf registration process, we or any selling securityholder may sell the common shares, preferred shares, debt securities (and related guarantees), warrants, purchase contracts, rights and units described in this prospectus in one or more offerings. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities we or any selling securityholder may offer. Each time we or a selling shareholder offer securities, we will provide you with a prospectus supplement that will describe the specific amounts, prices and terms of the offered securities. The prospectus supplement may also add, update or change the information contained in this prospectus. Before purchasing any securities, you should read carefully both this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, together with the additional information described under the heading “Where You Can Find Additional Information—Information Incorporated by Reference.”
This prospectus and any prospectus supplement are part of a registration statement we filed with the Commission and do not contain all the information provided in that registration statement.

You should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and in any prospectus supplement. We have not authorized any other person to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. We will not make an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus and any applicable supplement to this prospectus is accurate as of the date on its respective cover, and that any information incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, unless we indicate otherwise. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since those dates.
The Beneficial Ownership Act 2025 (the “BO Act”) came into force on November 3, 2025 requiring certain legal persons in Bermuda to identify beneficial owners and maintain a beneficial ownership register. For so long as our shares are listed on an “appointed stock exchange” (which includes the Nasdaq Global Select Market) we are exempted from the requirements of the BO Act, save for the requirement to confirm our exempted status with the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda (the “Registrar”) and file with the Registrar proof of that exemption.
Neither this prospectus nor any prospectus supplement needs to be filed with the Registrar in accordance with Part III of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, as amended (the “Companies Act”) pursuant to provisions incorporated therein following the enactment of the Companies and Partnerships (Electronic Registry) Amendment Act 2020. Such provisions state that Part III of the Companies Act shall not apply to any exempted company. We are a Bermuda exempted company.
