Shareholder Reminder: The Deadline to Join the Securities Class
Action Filed Against Converium Holding AG As a Potential Lead
Plaintiff Is December 3, 2004 (CHR) NEW YORK, Nov. 4 /PRNewswire/
-- Zwerling, Schachter & Zwerling, LLP ("Zwerling Schachter")
has filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District
Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all
persons and entities who purchased securities (ADSs) of Converium
Holding AG ("Converium" or the "Company") (NYSE:CHR) between
December 11, 2001 and July 20, 2004, inclusive (the "Class
Period"). The deadline to file a motion seeking to be appointed
lead plaintiff is December 3, 2004. If you wish to discuss this
action or have any questions concerning your rights and interests
with respect to this securities litigation matter, please contact

and two of its officers, Dirk Lohmann, and Martin Kauer, violated
Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. Specifically, it alleges that
the defendants failed to disclose and misrepresented the following
material adverse facts which were known to defendants or recklessly
disregarded by them: (a) that Converium maintained inadequate loss
reserves in its Converium North America subsidiary; (b) that the
Company did not, as it had announced, establish adequate loss
reserves to cover claims by Converium North America policy holders;
(c) that reserve increases announced by the Company during the
Class Period were materially insufficient; and (d) as a consequence
of the understatement of loss reserves, Converium's earnings and
assets were materially overstated during the Class Period. On July
20, 2004, the Company announced that its second quarter results
would be impacted by a reserve strengthening for US casualty
business and subsequent asset impairments on the balance sheet of
Converium North America. On this disclosure, shares of Converium
collapsed $11.12 per share, or approximately 44 percent, on July
20, 2004, to close at $13.90 per share. If you purchased
Converium's securities (ADSs) between December 11, 2001 and July
20, 2004, you may apply to serve as lead plaintiff. The lead
plaintiff is responsible for overseeing the prosecution of the
action and ensuring that the interests of the class are protected.
