Exhibit 99.1

PRELIMINARY UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On December 18, 2012, Markel Corporation (Markel or the Company) entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger with Alterra Capital Holdings Limited (Alterra), pursuant to which Alterra merged with one of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Alterra Merger Agreement). The Company completed the transaction on May 1, 2013 (the Acquisition Date). The following preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are based on the separate historical financial statements of Markel and Alterra after giving effect to the acquisition of Alterra by Markel and the issuance of Markel common stock in connection therewith, and the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements. The preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2013 is presented as if the transaction had occurred on March 31, 2013. The preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and for the year ended December 31, 2012 are presented as if the transaction had occurred on January 1, 2012. The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted to reflect factually supportable items that are directly attributable to the transaction and, with respect to the income statement only, expected to have a continuing impact on consolidated results of operations.

The preparation of the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements and related adjustments required management to make certain assumptions and estimates. The preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read together with:
the accompanying notes to the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements;
Markel's separate audited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in Markel's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012;
Alterra's separate audited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in Alterra's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012;
Markel's separate unaudited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013 included in Markel's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2013; and
Alterra's separate unaudited historical consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2013 included in Alterra's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
    
The preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). Markel is the acquirer for accounting purposes.
    
The preliminary unaudited pro forma adjustments, including the allocation of the acquisition consideration, have been made solely for the purpose of providing preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information.
    
A final determination of the acquisition consideration and fair values of Alterra's assets and liabilities will be based on the actual net tangible and intangible assets of Alterra that existed on May 1, 2013, the date the transaction was completed.

Amounts preliminarily allocated to goodwill and intangible assets could change significantly from those allocations used in the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements presented herein and could result in a material change in amortization of acquired intangible assets.
    
The adjustments that will be recorded as of the completion of the acquisition may differ materially from the information presented in these preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements as a result of changes in estimates, assumptions, valuations, and tax studies which have not progressed to a stage where there is sufficient information to make a definitive allocation of acquisition consideration.

The preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements do not include the effects of the costs associated with any restructuring or integration activities resulting from the transaction, as they are nonrecurring in nature.

1



The preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are provided for informational purposes only. Additionally, the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the results that would have been achieved had the transaction been completed as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future. Lastly, the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements do not give consideration to the impact of possible revenue enhancements, expense efficiencies, synergies or asset dispositions that may result from the transaction.

NOTES TO PRELIMINARY UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Pro Forma Presentation
    
The preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2013 and the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012 are based on the historical financial statements of Markel and Alterra after giving effect to the completion of the acquisition of Alterra by Markel and the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes. They do not reflect cost savings or operating synergies expected to result from the transaction, the costs to achieve these cost savings or operating synergies, or any disposition of assets that may result from the integration of the operations of the two companies.
    
The transaction will be accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, Business Combinations, with Markel as the acquiring entity. In business combination transactions in which the consideration given is not in the form of cash (that is, in the form of non-cash assets, liabilities incurred, or equity interests issued), measurement of the acquisition consideration is based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable.
    
Under ASC 805, all of the Alterra assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination are recognized at their acquisition-date fair value, while transaction costs and restructuring costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The excess of the acquisition consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill. Changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties, if any, after the acquisition date will generally affect income tax expense.
    
The preliminary unaudited pro forma information is presented solely for informational purposes and is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated results of operations or financial position that might have been achieved for the periods or dates indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future results of the combined company. Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation, including the reclassification of underwriting results for Alterra's life and annuity reinsurance business into other revenues and other expenses.

2. Preliminary Acquisition Consideration

On December 18, 2012, Markel and Alterra entered into the Alterra Merger Agreement. The purchase consideration to Alterra equity holders included approximately 4.4 million shares of Markel common stock and approximately $1.0 billion of cash. At the closing (as defined in the Alterra Merger Agreement) each outstanding Alterra common share (other than any restricted shares that did not vest in connection with the transaction) were converted into the right to receive 0.04315 shares of Markel common stock and $10.00 in cash (Merger Consideration). Under the Alterra Merger Agreement the 1.7 million stock options outstanding under Alterra's equity incentive plans were exchanged for Markel stock options at an exchange ratio of 0.06252 (the Incentive Award Exchange Ratio). Each outstanding Alterra restricted stock unit and restricted common share was converted into a Markel restricted stock unit or restricted stock based upon the Incentive Award Exchange Ratio. Each outstanding Alterra warrant was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration.
    
The share price used in determining the preliminary acquisition consideration was based upon the value of shares of Markel common stock on April 30, 2013 and Alterra common shares and equity awards outstanding as of March 31, 2013. The preliminary acquisition consideration also includes the fair value of Alterra restricted stock and restricted stock units, options, and warrants that are vested and either exercised or converted as of the closing of the transaction.

The fair value of the shares issued by the Company was calculated as the weighted average price of the Company's stock on April 30, 2013, the day preceding the Acquisition Date.

3. Preliminary Acquisition Consideration Allocation

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total acquisition consideration is allocated to the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities of Alterra based on their estimated fair values as of the closing of the transaction. The excess of the acquisition consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill.

The acquisition consideration is preliminary because the shares of Alterra common stock outstanding and restricted stock and restricted stock units used herein were the number outstanding as of March 31, 2013. The preliminary allocation is based on estimates, assumptions, valuations, and tax studies which have not progressed to a stage where there is sufficient information to make a definitive allocation. Accordingly, the acquisition consideration allocation reflected in the preliminary unaudited pro forma adjustments will remain preliminary until Markel management determines the final acquisition consideration and the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final determination of the acquisition consideration allocation is anticipated to be completed as soon as practicable and will be based on the value of the Markel weighted average share price at April 30, 2013 of $529.59. The final amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed could differ significantly from the amounts presented in the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements.

Approximately $150 million has been preliminarily allocated to amortizable intangible assets acquired. The amortization related to the preliminary fair value of amortizable intangible assets is reflected as a pro forma adjustment to the preliminary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements.

Identifiable intangible assets.    The preliminary fair values of intangible assets were determined based on the provisions of ASC 805, which defines fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Intangible assets were identified that met either the separability criterion or the contractual-legal criterion described in ASC 805. The preliminary allocation to intangible assets is as follows:

Goodwill.  Goodwill represents the excess of the preliminary acquisition consideration over the preliminary fair value of the underlying net tangible and intangible assets. Among the factors that contributed to a purchase price in excess of the fair value of the identifiable net tangible and intangible assets are the skill sets, operations and synergies that can be leveraged to enable the combined company to build a stronger enterprise. In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, goodwill will not be amortized, but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually and whenever events or circumstances have occurred that may indicate a possible impairment. If management determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, the combined company will incur a charge to earnings for the amount of the impairment during the period in which the determination is made.

5. Income Taxes

Alterra and Alterra Bermuda Limited are incorporated in Bermuda and under Bermuda law and prior to the acquisition were not taxed on either income or capital gains. Alterra's other consolidated subsidiaries are based in the United States, Ireland, Latin America and the United Kingdom and are subject to the tax laws of those jurisdictions and the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result of the acquisition, as of May 1, 2013 Alterra and its non-U.S. subsidiaries became controlled foreign corporations or are now treated as U.S. entities in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, are subject to U.S. income tax at a statutory rate of 35%. The acquisition was taxable to U.S. shareholders of Alterra, and Markel elected to treat it as an asset acquisition under section 338(g) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The tax impact of the preliminary pro forma adjustments is estimated on each pro forma financial statement based on the applicable tax impact on the entity that is expected to sustain the related pre-tax charge or benefit.
