Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

Aspen Insurance Holdings Limited (the "Company") announced a new organizational structure whereby it will manage its insurance and reinsurance businesses under two separate brands, Aspen Insurance and Aspen Reinsurance, to enhance and better serve its global customer base. As part of the organizational changes, Julian Cusack will assume the role of Group Chief Risk Officer. As a result of the decentralization of responsibilities, the chief operating officer position at the group level will not be filled and Mr. Cusack will no longer have such title. Although he will no longer have the title Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Cusack will still manage operational aspects including audit, actuarial, risk, risk capital, legal and compliance functions. Mr. Houghton will continue to lead the group management of finance, investment, human resources and informational technology functions.
