This Amendment No. 2 amends the Statement of Schedule 13D, filed on June 27, 2003 by Capital Z Financial Services Fund II, L.P., a Bermuda limited partnership ("Capital Z Fund II"), Capital Z Financial Services Private Fund II, L.P. a Bermuda limited partnership ("Capital Z Private Fund II"), Capital Z Partners, L.P., a Bermuda limited partnership ("Capital Z L.P."), Capital Z Partners, Ltd., a Bermuda corporation ("Capital Z Ltd.") and Capital Z Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Capital Z Management", collectively, the "Reporting Persons"), as amended by Amendment No. 1, filed on December 29, 2004 (as so amended, the "Initial Statement on Schedule 13D"). This Amendment No. 2 incorporates by reference all of the information contained in the Initial Statement on Schedule 13D except to the extent that the information contained herein amends and supplements the information contained on the Initial Statement on Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Initial Statement on Schedule 13D. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. On March 31, 2005, mandatorily convertible Series A1 Convertible Voting Preferred Shares, Series B1 Convertible Voting Preferred Shares and Series C1 Convertible Voting Preferred Shares (the "Convertible Voting Preferred Shares") of PXRE Group, Ltd. (the "Company") were converted into Class A Convertible Voting Common Shares, Class B Convertible Voting Common Shares and Class C Convertible Voting Common Shares (the "Convertible Common Shares"). The conversion was effected based upon a conversion price of $13.27, which conversion price was agreed between the Company and holders of the Company's Convertible Voting Preferred Shares pursuant to a letter agreement dated as of March 31, 2005. Immediately prior to the conversion, Capital Z Fund II and Capital Z Private Fund II held 5,809.612 and 30.946 Series B1 Convertible Voting Preferred Shares, respectively, which converted into 4,381,897 and 23,341 Class B Convertible Common Shares, respectively. The Convertible Common Shares are convertible at a one-to-one ratio into the Company's Common Shares at any time by the holder. The Reporting Persons consummated the transactions described herein for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons intend to review continuously their position in the Company. Depending upon further evaluations of the business prospects of the Company and upon other developments, including, but not limited to, general economic and business conditions and stock market conditions, the Reporting Persons may retain or from time to time increase their holdings or dispose of all or a portion of their holdings subject to any applicable legal and contractual restrictions on their ability to do so in privately negotiated transactions, open market purchases or otherwise. The Reporting Persons also intend to continue to have active participation in the management of the Company through representation on the Board of Directors. Except as set forth in this Item 4 (including the matters described in Item 6 in the Initial Statement on Schedule 13D which are incorporated in this Item 4 by reference), the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the actions specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer. Item 5 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following: (a) - (b) The information on the cover pages is incorporated herein by reference. Capital Z Management may be deemed to be part of a group together with Capital Z Fund II, Capital Z Private Fund II, Capital Z L.P. and Capital Z Ltd. and therefore be deemed to beneficially own the shares beneficially owned by Capital Z Fund II, Capital Z Private Fund II, Capital Z L.P. and Capital Z Ltd. but no Reporting Person affirms the existence of any such group. Such group would beneficially own 6,805,478 Common Shares, assuming conversion of all Preferred Shares held by such group at a conversion price of $13.27, which would represent 24.6% of the total outstanding Common Shares. Capital Z Management disclaims any beneficial ownership of any shares owned or deemed to be beneficially owned by Capital Z Fund II, Capital Z Private Fund II, Capital Z L.P. and Capital Z Ltd. Capital Z Fund II, Capital Z Private Fund II, Capital Z L.P. and Capital Z Ltd. each disclaim beneficial ownership of any shares owned by Capital Z Management. All calculations made herein are made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and based on the 20,818,630 Common Shares outstanding as of March 18, 2005, and assuming that all outstanding Preferred Shares held by the Reporting Persons are converted into Common Shares. (c) Pursuant to the terms of the Preferred Shares as set forth in Section 7(d) of the Description of Stock, the conversion price of the Preferred Shares was adjusted as of March 31, 2005 to $13.27. Other than the transactions described above, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in respect of the Common Shares or the Preferred Shares within the past 60 days. (d) None. (e) Not applicable. Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits. 1. Joint Filing Agreement, dated April 8, 2005.
