     This  Amendment  No. 1 to Schedule 13D amends the  Schedule  13D  initially
filed  on  April  12,  2002  (collectively,  with all  amendments  thereto,  the
"Schedule  13D").  Preliminary  Note:  As  reported  in the  Schedule  13D,  the
Reporting  Persons (as defined  below) are filing this Schedule 13D with respect
to the Common Shares,  par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Shares"),  of Arch
Capital Group Ltd.  (the  "Company").  Certain of the Reporting  Persons own, in
aggregate,  609,800 Common Shares. In addition, certain of the Reporting Persons
own, in aggregate,  (i) 1,197,781  Series A Convertible  Preference  Shares (the
