CEO Appointment and Agreement

On November 3, 2023, the Registrant, Greenlight Reinsurance, Ltd. (“Greenlight Re,” together with the Registrant, the “Employer”), and Mr. Richardson entered into an Employment Agreement, with a commencement date of January 1, 2024 (the “Richardson Agreement”).

The Richardson Agreement provides that Mr. Richardson will serve as the Chief Executive Officer and will be entitled to receive (i) an annual base salary of USD $800,000 (pro-rated for partial years), (ii) an annual bonus with a target bonus opportunity of 100% of his base salary, based on certain performance metrics, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Registrant or Compensation Committee thereof pursuant to the Registrant’s short-term incentive plan, as in effect from time to time and (iii) and an equity annual award opportunity under the Greenlight Capital Re., Ltd. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), as in effect from time to time, with a grant date target fair value of 150% of base salary. In addition, promptly following Mr. Richardson’s commencement of employment, he will be granted stock options to acquire 250,000 ordinary shares with a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of an ordinary share on the date of grant as determined under the Incentive Plan, which will vest as to 50,000 ordinary shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant subject to Mr. Richardson’s employment on the applicable vesting date.

In the event Mr. Richardson’s employment is terminated by the Employer without Cause or by Mr. Richardson for Good Reason (each as defined in the Richardson Agreement), in addition to any accrued but unpaid base salary and vacation through the date of termination, any unpaid annual bonus for the year preceding the year of termination and any statutory severance, if any (the “Accrued Obligations”), subject to the execution of a release and certain other conditions, Mr. Richardson will be entitled to receive: (i) a prorated annual bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance, (ii) an amount equal to one (1) times the sum of Mr. Richardson’s annual base salary and target bonus opportunity (reduced by the amount of any statutory severance that is payable to Mr. Richardson), which shall be payable over 12 months, (iii) full vesting of time vesting restricted shares awarded to Mr. Richardson, (iv) continued eligibility to vest in performance vesting restricted shares granted to him and (v) reimbursement for certain relocation expenses. In the event Mr. Richardson’s employment is terminated for any other reason, he shall only be entitled to receive the Accrued Obligations.

Pursuant to the terms of the Richardson Agreement, it is contemplated that Mr. Richardson will become a member of the Registrant’s board of directors on January 1, 2024.

The Richardson Agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including restrictions related to non-competition, non-solicitation of customers, confidentiality, non-disparagement, non-disclosure of proprietary information and ownership of Employer work product and information.

Mr. Richardson, aged 62, previously served as Chief Risk and Strategy Officer of TransRe from 2014 to 2023. Prior to that he held strategic planning and underwriting roles and served as Chief Underwriting Officer at Harbor Point Re (which merged with Max Re Capital to form Alterra Re) from 2006 to 2013. Mr. Richardson graduated with a B.Sc. Honors in Mathematics from Purdue, was a Marshall Scholar at Oxford University, and obtained his MBA in Finance from the University of Chicago.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Richardson and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Richardson was appointed Chief Executive Officer. There are no family relationships between Mr. Richardson and any other director or executive officer of the Registrant, or any persons nominated or chosen by the Registrant to be a director or executive officer. There are no transactions to which the Registrant is a party and in which Mr. Richardson has a direct or indirect material interest that would be required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

CEO Separation Agreement and Consulting Agreement

On November 3, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), Simon Burton and the Employer executed a Deed of Settlement and Release (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Burton’s employment with the Employer will terminate by mutual consent effective as of December 31, 2023 (the “Separation Date”). In addition, as of the Effective Date, Mr. Burton will resign from all officer, board, committee, and other appointments or positions held in respect of the Employer and any associated entities.

The Separation Agreement provides that Mr. Burton will receive benefits, consisting of (i) a cash severance amount equal to $2,400,000, less applicable taxes and deductions and any applicable statutory severance payable to Mr. Burton, payable over eighteen (18) months in substantially equal monthly installments commencing on the sixtieth (60th) day after the Separation Date, (ii) payment equivalent to statutory severance, (iii) full vesting of time vesting restricted shares awarded to Mr. Burton, (iv) continued eligibility to vest in performance vesting restricted shares granted to him, (v) continued payment of base salary

Additionally, under the terms of the Separation Agreement, Mr. Burton is entitled to any accrued and unpaid base salary through the Effective Date, unreimbursed expenses, accrued but unused vacation pay in accordance with the terms of the Employer’s policy, and the annual bonus for 2023. As consideration for the foregoing, Mr. Burton has agreed to a general release of all claims against the Employer and its affiliates. The Separation Agreement confirms that certain provisions contained in Mr. Burton’s amended and restated employment agreement with the Employer, dated January 1, 2022, including confidentiality, non-competition, certain restrictions relating to the disclosure of proprietary information, and ownership of the Employer work product, shall remain in full force and effect.

EXECUTION COPY

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (as it may be amended, the “Agreement”), dated as of November 3, 2023, is made between:

(1) Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (the “Company”) and Greenlight Reinsurance, Ltd. (the “Subsidiary” and together with the Company, the “Employer”); and

(2) Greg Richardson (the “Executive”).

(Each a “Party” and together the “Parties”).

WHEREAS,

(a) the Employer desires to employ the Executive as the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Employer (the “Employment”) commencing on January 1, 2024 (the “Commencement Date”);

(b) the Executive desires to render services as the CEO of the Employer; and

(c) the Parties intend for this Agreement to set forth all the terms and conditions of the Employment effective upon the Commencement Date and supersede and replace all prior agreements, arrangements, representations and/or undertakings between the Parties regarding the Employment.

IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

1. Employment.

1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement the Employer agrees to employ the Executive as the CEO effective as of the Commencement Date, and the Executive hereby accepts such employment, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

2. Employment Period.

2.1 The period of Employment of Executive by the Employer under this Agreement (the “Employment Period”) shall commence on the Commencement Date and shall continue until terminated by either Party in accordance with Section 9 of this Agreement.

2.2 Each of this Agreement and the Employment is conditioned upon (i) the Employer obtaining a work permit in respect of the Cayman Islands and (ii) the Executive maintaining the right to live and work in the Cayman Islands. The Employer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain necessary work permits and shall pay the costs associated with such efforts.

3. Position and Duties.

3.1 During the Employment Period, the Executive shall serve as CEO and report directly to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

3.2 During the Employment Period, the Executive shall have those powers and duties ordinarily associated with the position of CEO and such other powers and duties

as may reasonably be prescribed by the Board; provided that, such other powers and duties are consistent with Executive’s position as CEO and do not violate any applicable laws or regulations.

3.3 The Executive shall perform Executive’s duties to the best of Executive’s abilities and shall devote all of Executive’s working time, attention and energies to the performance of Executive’s duties for the Employer. The Executive shall not accept any other post, role, board position or employment during the Employment Period without having first obtained the written consent of the Board or the Board’s designee.

3.4 During the Employment Period, it is anticipated that Executive shall also serve as a member of the Board for no additional compensation, subject to his continued election to serve on the Board by the Company’s shareholders. If requested by the Board, Executive shall also serve as an officer and/or director of other subsidiaries or affiliates of the Employer for no additional compensation. In the event that this Agreement is terminated by either Party pursuant to Section 9 hereof the Executive shall resign as a member of the Board and as an officer and/or director of other subsidiaries or affiliates of the Employer as of the effective date of such termination.

3.5 The Executive’s normal hours of work and standard work week shall be as set forth in the Employer’s published employee handbook, as may be amended from time to time. As an employee of professional and managerial level, the Executive will work such additional hours in excess of his standard work week as are necessary to properly discharge Executive’s duties and hereby waives any entitlement to overtime pay in respect of such additional hours or for any hours worked on a public holiday.

4. Place of Performance.

4.1 The Executive’s principal place of work shall be the Employer’s premises in the Cayman Islands.

4.2 The Executive may be required to travel and work overseas insofar as is necessary to discharge Executive’s duties and meet the business needs of the Employer. At all times the Executive shall conduct the business needs of the Employer in such a manner as to ensure that neither the Executive nor the Employer is deemed to be engaged in a trade or business within the United States of America.

5. Compensation and Related Matters.

5.1 During the Employment Period, the Subsidiary shall pay the Executive a base salary of US $800,000 per annum (pro-rated for partial years) (the “Base Salary”), such salary to be paid in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices, by direct deposit to a bank account nominated by the Executive.

5.2 The Executive shall be paid the Base Salary gross, and the Executive shall be solely responsible for the payment of any national, state or federal taxes or similar obligations to which he may be liable from time to time and the filing of any documents or returns that may be required in connection therewith.

5.3 During the Employment Period, the Board and/or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) shall periodically review the

Executive’s Base Salary for increase, but not decrease, consistent with the compensation practices and guidelines of the Subsidiary. If the Executive’s Base Salary is increased by the Board or the Compensation Committee, such increased Base Salary shall then constitute the Base Salary for all purposes of this Agreement.

5.4 The Executive hereby consents to all deductions as may be required by law to be made by the Employer from the Base Salary.

5.5 During the Employment Period, the Subsidiary shall promptly reimburse the Executive for all actual, reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses properly incurred by the Executive in the ordinary course of the Employer’s business that are reported and evidenced to the Subsidiary in accordance with its published expense reimbursement policies and procedures. In addition, the Subsidiary shall promptly reimburse Executive for (i) up to an aggregate of $5,000 per year for actual, reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with personal tax preparation (ii) up to an aggregate of $50,000 for actual, reasonable, documented out-of-pocket relocation expenses from the United States to the Cayman Islands, including relocation of Executive’s and his family’s personal property and travel expenses for house hunting.

5.6 In addition to Base Salary, during the Employment Period beginning with calendar year 2024, the Executive shall be eligible to be considered for an annual bonus (the “Bonus”) with a target of one hundred percent (100%) of Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”) based on certain performance metrics, financial or otherwise, as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s short-term incentive plan, as in effect from time to time and as it may be amended from time to time in the Employer’s sole discretion or any successor plan thereto (the “STIP”). For 2024, the Bonus metrics will be based 50% on individual performance criteria and 50% on Company performance criteria applicable to bonus plan participants generally.

6. Leave.

6.1 During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to 25 days of paid vacation per calendar year, in addition to Cayman Islands public holidays, in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Employer’s published employee handbook, as may be amended from time to time, which shall be taken at a time mutually agreed with the Employer.

6.2 During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to a maximum of ten days paid sick leave per year, such leave to be taken only when sick or otherwise incapacitated from work. The Employer shall in its discretion be entitled to request the production of a doctor’s note in support of any such absence.

6.3 During the Employment Period, the Executive shall also be entitled to compassionate, adoption and such other leave as may be prescribed by law.

7. Benefits.

7.1 During the Employment Period, the Executive shall participate in pension and medical benefits and other employee benefits in accordance with applicable law and with the Company’s policies, as in effect from time to time.

8. Equity-Based Awards.

8.1 During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible to receive equity-based awards in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Greenlight Capital Re., Ltd. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (as it may be amended or amended and restated or modified from time to time) or any successor plan (the “Incentive Plan”). Executive will be eligible for an annual Incentive Plan award opportunity with a grant date target fair value of 150% of Base Salary. For 2024, Executive’s equity award will be 33% time-vesting in three annual installments (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Incentive Plan) and 67% will be performance-vesting based on criteria applicable to Incentive Plan participants generally as established by the Compensation Committee. For the avoidance of doubt, the grant of any award under the Incentive Plan is entirely within the discretion of the Board and the Compensation Committee, and after 2024, any such award may consist of time-based and/or performance-based awards as determined by the Committee.

8.2 If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Employer without Cause or due to Disability, by the Executive for Good Reason, or upon death (each, a “Qualifying Termination”), in each case, subject to Executive’s continued compliance with any restrictive covenants by which he may be bound and the release requirements (described in Sections 8.3 and 8.4), any (i) outstanding unvested time-based Incentive Plan awards, if any, shall fully vest and (ii) a prorated portion of the outstanding unvested performance-based Incentive Plan awards, if any, shall remain outstanding through the applicable performance period and shall be eligible to vest in accordance with the applicable performance criteria, with such proration based on a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed in the performance period through the date the employment is terminated and the denominator of which is the number of days in the performance period.

8.3 The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the benefits set forth in this Section 8.2 constitute liquidated damages for termination of the Employment Period and his Employment and that prior to receiving any such benefits under this Section 8.2, and as a material condition thereof, Executive shall sign, deliver and agree to be bound by a separation agreement and general release of claims against the Employer and its affiliates related to the Employment and its termination with the Employer in such form as the Board or the Compensation Committee reasonably determines (the “Release”).

8.4 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Executive should fail to execute such Release within 45 days following the later of (i) the Executive’s date of termination or (ii) the date the Executive actually receives an execution copy of such Release (which shall be delivered to the Executive within ten (10) business days following his date of termination and, if not timely delivered, this release condition will be deemed waived by the Employer with respect to payments under

this Section 8), neither the Company nor the Subsidiary shall have any obligation with respect to the vesting and benefits contemplated under this Section 8.

8.5 On termination by the Company for Cause all unvested Incentive Plan awards, unexercised Incentive Plan awards, and all unsettled Incentive Plan awards, as applicable, shall be cancelled and shall be immediately forfeited.

8.6 On termination by the Executive without Good Reason, all unvested Incentive Plan awards shall be cancelled and shall be immediately forfeited.

8.7 Promptly following Executive’s commencement of employment, Executive will be granted stock options with a ten (10) year term under the Incentive Plan to acquire 250,000 ordinary shares with a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of an ordinary share on the date of grant as determined under the Incentive Plan (the “Options”). The Options will vest as to 50,000 ordinary shares on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant subject to Executive’s employment on the applicable vesting date. All unvested Options will automatically terminate without consideration on termination of Executive’s employment upon death, due to Disability or by Executive without Good Reason. All unvested Options shall become fully vested upon (i) a termination without Cause or for Good Reason and (ii) a Change in Control (as defined in the Incentive Plan) subject to Executive’s employment at the time of the Change in Control. All vested Options will remain outstanding for the balance of their full term; provided, that all Options, whether or not vested, shall terminate in the event the Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause.

9. Termination.

9.1 The Employment and the Employment Period may be terminated under the following circumstances:

9.1.1 Death. The Employment Period and the Employment hereunder shall terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death;

9.1.2 Disability. If, as a result of the Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness, the Executive shall have been substantially unable to perform his duties hereunder for an entire period of at least 90 consecutive days or 180 non-consecutive days within any 365-day period (“Disability”), the Employer shall have the right to terminate the Employment and the Employment Period without further notice and such termination in and of itself shall not be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement.

9.1.3 Cause. The Employer shall have the right to terminate the Employment and the Employment Period for Cause without notice, and such termination in and of itself shall not be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

(a) Serious Misconduct (as defined below) on the part of the Executive;

(b) Further misconduct on the part of the Executive within twelve (12) months following the issue of a formal written warning in respect of misconduct;

(c) Any act or omission that constitutes a material breach of any provision of this Agreement that is not cured, if curable, within ten (10) days after written notice thereof;

(d) Impeding or failing to materially cooperate with any investigation by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and/or affiliates (collectively, the “Group”);

(e) A material breach of fiduciary duty by the Executive;

(f) The failure, refusal or neglect by the Executive to perform, in any material respect, Executive’s duties hereunder or the failure, refusal or neglect to follow any lawful and reasonable direction in a satisfactory manner within ten (10) days of the issue of a formal written warning in respect thereof; or

(g) The failure by Executive to maintain the right to live and work in the Cayman Islands.

9.1.4 Serious Misconduct includes (but is not limited to):

(b) Commission of a criminal offence relevant to the Employment (other than a minor traffic offence);

(d) Fraud, dishonesty, embezzlement or misuse of funds or property belonging to any member of the Group;

(e) Violation by the Executive of the written policies or code of conduct of any member of the Group that could reasonably be expected to be materially detrimental or damaging (financial, reputational, operational, business relations or otherwise) to any member of the Group; or

(f) Any willful acts, omissions or statements by the Executive that could reasonably be expected to be materially detrimental or damaging (financial, reputational, operational, business relations or otherwise) of any member of the Group.

The Board or the Compensation Committee, in good faith, shall determine all matters and questions relating to whether Cause exists.

9.2 Investigation. The Employer shall have the right to suspend the Executive with pay in order to investigate any event which it reasonably believes may provide a basis for the Employer to terminate the Employment and the Employment Period for Cause during which period the Executive may be excluded from the Employer’s offices and/or business and such action shall not give the Executive Good Reason to terminate the Employment or the Employment Period.

9.3 Good Reason. The Executive may terminate the Employment and the Employment Period for “Good Reason” within ninety (90) days after the occurrence, without Executive’s consent, of any one of the events defined below that has not been cured, if curable, within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof has been given by the Executive to the Employer (the “Cure Period”) and such termination, which shall be effective promptly at the end of the Cure Period, in and of itself shall not be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. Good Reason shall be limited to the following: (i) any material and adverse change to the Executive’s title or duties that is inconsistent with his duties set forth herein; (ii) a reduction of the Executive’s Base Salary; or (iii) a failure by the Employer to comply with any other material provisions of this Agreement.

9.4 Without Good Reason. The Executive shall have the right to terminate the Employment Period and the Employment hereunder without Good Reason by providing the Employer with a Notice of Termination (as defined below) at least ninety (90) days prior to such termination, and such termination shall not in and of itself be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Notice of Termination” means a written notice that (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s Employment under the provision so indicated, and (iii) if the date of termination is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date.

9.5 Without Cause. The Employer shall have the right to terminate the Employment Period and the Employment without Cause (other than due to Disability) at any time by providing the Executive with a Notice of Termination at least ninety (90) days prior to such termination and such termination shall not in and of itself be, nor shall it be deemed to be, a breach of this Agreement.

9.6.1 terminate the Employment immediately; provided that, in addition to any other rights, compensation and/or benefits as may be due to Executive in accordance with this Agreement and subject to the satisfaction of the requirements set forth Section 10.2 and 10.3 hereof, (i) any pro-rata portion of Executive’s Base Salary that would have been earned through the date that is ninety (90) days following the Notice of Termination shall be payable to the Executive in accordance with 10.5.1(a) hereof and (ii) any pro-rata Bonus that would have been earned under the terms of the STIP or any other applicable cash compensation plan through the date that is ninety (90) days following the Notice of Termination shall be payable to Executive in accordance with Section 10.5.1(b) of hereof; or

9.6.2 place the Executive on ‘garden leave’ at any time for some or all of the period of notice whereby he will not be required to attend for work at the Employer’s premises unless expressly required to do so. During any period of garden leave the Executive remains an employee of the Employer and fully bound by the terms of this Agreement, but shall not take any action in the name of the Employer, hold themselves out as acting for or on behalf of the Employer, or render any services to the Employer unless expressly instructed to do so.

10. Compensation Upon Termination.

10.1 In the event the Employment Period and the Executive’s Employment is terminated other than due to the Executive’s death, the Subsidiary shall provide the Executive with the payments set forth below and shall not be required to provide any other payments, rights or benefits to the Executive upon such termination.

10.2 The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the payments and benefits set forth in this Section 10 constitute liquidated damages for termination of the Employment Period and his Employment and that prior to receiving any such payments under this Section 10, other than the Accrued Obligations (as defined below), and as a material condition thereof, Executive shall sign, deliver and agree to be bound by a separation agreement and general release of claims (a “Release”) against the Employer and its affiliates related to the Employment and its termination with the Employer in such form as the Board or the Compensation Committee reasonably determines.

10.3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Executive should fail to execute such Release within forty-five (45) days following the later of (i) the Executive’s date of termination or (ii) the date the Executive actually receives an execution copy of such Release (which shall be delivered to the Executive within ten (10) business days following his date of termination and, if not timely delivered, this release condition will be deemed waived by the Employer with respect to payments under this Section 10), neither the Company nor the Subsidiary shall have any obligation to make the payments contemplated under this Section 10 (other than the Accrued Obligations);

10.4 Any Release provided pursuant to this Section 10 shall not limit, release or waive the Executive’s right to indemnification as provided for by this Agreement or otherwise by law or contract.

Upon the Executive’s termination of employment for any reason, upon the request of the Board, he shall immediately resign any membership or positions that Executive then holds with any member of the Group.

10.5 If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Employer (whether before or after a Change in Control) without Cause (other than due to Disability) or by the Executive for Good Reason:

10.5.1 the Subsidiary shall pay or provide to the Executive:

(a) Executive’s accrued, but unpaid Base Salary earned through the date of termination and any accrued, but unused vacation pay through the date of termination, payable as soon as practicable

GREENLIGHT RE ANNOUNCES

THIRD QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Gross premiums written increased 18.0%

Net income of $13.5 million ($0.39 per diluted ordinary share)

Fully diluted book value per share increased 2.3% to $16.58

GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands – November 8, 2023 – Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (NASDAQ: GLRE) (“Greenlight Re” or the “Company”) today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights (all comparisons are to third quarter 2022 unless noted otherwise):

•Gross premiums written increased 18.0% to $183.1 million;

•Net premiums earned increased 33.8% to $163.1 million;

•Underwriting income of $14.4 million compared to an underwriting loss of $18.9 million;

•Net income of $13.5 million, or $0.39 per diluted ordinary share, compared to a net loss of $18.5 million, or $(0.56) per diluted ordinary share;

•Combined ratio of 91.2%, compared to a combined ratio of 115.4%;

•Total investment income of $5.1 million, compared to total investment income of $11.6 million; and

•Fully diluted book value per share increased $0.37, or 2.3%, to $16.58, from $16.21 at June 30, 2023.

Simon Burton, Chief Executive Officer of Greenlight Re, stated, “The underwriting result of 91.2% combined ratio led our performance in the third quarter as we grew book value by 2.3%. This result was impacted by approximately 4 combined ratio points of legacy reserve development, as inflationary pressure has persisted in discontinued areas of our business.”

David Einhorn, Chairman of the Board of Directors, said, “The third quarter was challenging period in the equity markets. A partial reversal of our gains in Green Brick Partners slightly more than offset good performance throughout the balance of the portfolio. Year-to-date through September 30, the Solasglas fund was up 9.1%.”

Third Quarter 2023 Results

Gross premiums written in the third quarter of 2023 were $183.1 million, compared to $155.1 million in the third quarter of 2022. The $27.9 million increase, or 18.0%, relates primarily to new contracts bounds during 2023 related to property, general liability, and specialty business.

The Company recognized net underwriting income of $14.4 million in the third quarter of 2023. By comparison, the equivalent period in 2022 incurred a net underwriting loss of $18.9 million. The combined ratio for the third quarter of 2023 was 91.2%, compared to 115.4% for the equivalent period in 2022.

The following table summarizes the components of our combined ratio.


Underwriting ratios	Third Quarter 2023		Third Quarter 2022
Loss ratio - current year	61.4	%	75.8	%
Loss ratio - prior year	(2.0)	%	1.7	%
Loss ratio	59.4	%	77.5	%
Acquisition cost ratio	28.8	%	30.2	%
Composite ratio	88.2	%	107.7	%
Underwriting expense ratio	3.0	%	7.7	%
Combined ratio	91.2	%	115.4	%

The Company’s total investment income during the third quarter of 2023 was $5.1 million. The Company’s investment in the Solasglas fund, managed by DME Advisors, returned (0.6)%, representing a net loss of $1.9 million. The Company reported $7.0 million of other investment income, primarily from interest earned on its restricted cash and cash equivalents.

The Company reported other non-underwriting loss of $1.3 million during the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to foreign exchange losses driven by the weakening of the pound sterling, partially offset by investment income on the funds withheld by the Lloyd’s syndicates.

The net income of $13.5 million contributed to the 2.3% increase in fully diluted book value per share for the quarter, which increased to $16.58 per share at September 30, 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In presenting the Company’s results, management has included financial measures that are not calculated under standards or rules that comprise accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Such measures, including basic book value per share, fully diluted book value per share, and net underwriting income (loss), are referred to as non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures may be defined or calculated differently by other companies. Management believes these measures allow for a more thorough understanding of the underlying business. These measures are used to monitor our results and should not be viewed as a substitute for those determined in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of such measures to the most comparable GAAP figures are included in the attached financial information in accordance with Regulation G.

Best ratings; any suspension or revocation of any of our licenses; the performance of Solasglas Investments, LP; the carry values of our investments made under our Greenlight Re Innovations pillar may differ significantly from those that would be used if we carried these investments at fair value; our level of debt and its adverse impact on our liquidity; impact of United States federal income taxes and legal uncertainties and other factors described in our most recent Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), as those factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic and other filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

KEY FINANCIAL MEASURES AND NON-GAAP MEASURES

Management uses certain key financial measures, some of which are not prescribed under U.S. GAAP rules and standards (“non-GAAP financial measures”), to evaluate our financial performance, financial position, and the change in shareholder value. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure, as defined in SEC Regulation G, is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented under U.S. GAAP. We believe that these measures, which may be calculated or defined differently by other companies, provide consistent and comparable metrics of our business performance to help shareholders understand performance trends and facilitate a more thorough understanding of the Company’s business. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for those determined under U.S. GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this report are:

•Basic book value per share and fully diluted book value per share; and

•Net underwriting income (loss)

These non-GAAP financial measures are described below.

Basic Book Value Per Share and Fully Diluted Book Value Per Share

We believe that long-term growth in fully diluted book value per share is the most relevant measure of our financial performance because it provides management and investors a yardstick to monitor the shareholder value generated. Fully diluted book value per share may also help our investors, shareholders, and other interested parties form a basis of comparison with other companies within the property and casualty reinsurance industry. Basic book value per share and fully diluted book value per share should not be viewed as substitutes for the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

We calculate basic book value per share as (a) ending shareholders' equity, divided by (b) aggregate of ordinary shares issued and outstanding, including all unvested service-based restricted shares, and the earned portion of performance-based restricted shares granted after December 31, 2021. We exclude shares potentially issuable in connection with convertible notes if the conversion price exceeds the share price. We repaid all outstanding convertible notes on August 1, 2023 without issuing any shares.

Fully diluted book value per share represents basic book value per share combined with any dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options, unvested service-based RSUs, and the earned portion of unvested performance-based RSUs granted. Fully diluted book value per share also includes the dilutive effect, if any, of ordinary shares expected to be issued upon settlement of the convertible notes.

Our primary financial goal is to increase fully diluted book value per share over the long term. We use fully diluted book value per share as a financial measure in our annual incentive compensation.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures basic and fully diluted book value per share to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure:


	September 30, 2023			June 30, 2023			March 31, 2023			December 31, 2022			September 30, 2022

(1) For periods prior to January 1, 2022, all unvested restricted shares are included in the “basic” and “fully diluted” denominators. Restricted shares with performance-based vesting conditions granted after December 31, 2021, are included in the “basic” and “fully diluted” denominators to the extent that the Company has recognized the corresponding share-based compensation expense. At September 30, 2023, the aggregate number of unearned restricted shares with performance conditions not included in the “basic” and “fully diluted” denominators was 947,492 (June 30, 2023: 982,645, March 31, 2023: 1,014,317, December 31, 2022: 709,638, September 30, 2022: 732,310).

Net Underwriting Income (Loss)

One way that we evaluate the Company’s underwriting performance is by measuring net underwriting income (loss). We do not use premiums written as a measure of performance. Net underwriting income (loss) is a performance measure used by management to evaluate the fundamentals underlying the Company’s underwriting operations. We believe that the use of net underwriting income (loss) enables investors and other users of the Company’s financial information to analyze our performance in a manner similar to how management analyzes performance. Management also believes this measure follows industry practice and allows the users of financial information to compare the Company’s performance with that of our industry peer group.

Net underwriting income (loss) is considered a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes items used to calculate net income before taxes under U.S. GAAP. We calculate net underwriting income (loss) as net premiums earned less net loss

and loss adjustment expenses, acquisition costs, underwriting expenses, and deposit interest expense. The measure excludes, on a recurring basis: (1) investment income (loss); (2) other income (expense) not related to underwriting, including foreign exchange gains or losses, and Lloyd’s interest income and expense; (3) corporate general and administrative expenses; and (4) interest expense. We exclude total investment income or loss, foreign exchange gains or losses, and Lloyd’s interest income or expense as we believe these items are influenced by market conditions and other factors unrelated to underwriting decisions. Additionally, we exclude corporate and interest expenses because these costs are generally fixed and not incremental to or directly related to our underwriting operations. We believe all of these amounts are largely independent of our underwriting process, and including them could hinder the analysis of trends in our underwriting operations. Net underwriting income (loss) should not be viewed as a substitute for U.S. GAAP net income before income taxes.

The reconciliations of net underwriting income (loss) to income (loss) before income taxes (the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) on a consolidated basis are shown below:


	Three months ended September 30				Nine months ended September 30
	2023		2022		2023		2022
