Item 8.01.  Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on May 15, 2007, funds affiliated with Hellman & Friedman LLC (the “Hellman & Friedman funds”) distributed all of their remaining common shares of Arch Capital Group Ltd. (“ACGL”) to their partners and, following this distribution, no longer owned any shares of capital stock of ACGL.  As a result, their rights under the shareholders agreement with ACGL terminated, including with respect to restrictions on share repurchases and dividends and the designation of directors of ACGL.

On August 23, 2007, Jeffrey Goldstein, who previously served as a designee of the Hellman & Friedman funds, resigned from the Board of Directors of ACGL.
