THE COMPANY AT A GLANCE

Overview

Established in 2004, the Company provides multiline property and casualty insurance and reinsurance through its licensed and regulated reinsurance entities in the Cayman Islands and Ireland, and its Lloyd's platform, Greenlight Innovation Syndicate 3456. The Company complements its underwriting activities with a non-traditional investment approach designed to achieve higher rates of return over the long term than reinsurance companies that exclusively employ more traditional investment strategies. In 2018, the Company launched its Greenlight Re Innovations unit, which supports technology innovators in the (re)insurance space by providing investment capital, risk capacity, and access to a broad insurance network.

The Company’s business is comprised of

Three Strategic Pillars:

Open Market Reinsurance Underwriting	Innovations	Value Orientated Investment Strategy
Combination of lead and follow business determined by expertise and market intelligence	Leverage investment to provide optionality to participate in (re)insurance business opportunities	Designed to achieve higher rates of return over the long term than more traditional fixed income investment strategies
Small scale allows consistent review of all risks and dynamic allocation of capacity to best opportunities	Benefit from potential capital appreciation on early stage investments	Low correlation to underwriting
		Long-short strategy reduces market exposure
Focus on short- and medium-tail risks where we can compete on similar terms with larger peers	For each investment, we have a high level of influence, diversification and option on future business	Liquid portfolio

Contribution of all Three Strategic Pillars of the Company to Overall Results

The foregoing financial highlights, both in 2023 and measured by growth in shareholders’ equity over the past five years, demonstrate the strength of our go-forward strategy and dedication and hard work of our employees.1

We continue to prioritize long-term growth in diluted book value per share as a primary financial metric in measuring our Company’s performance, and believe our current strategy positions us for success under this metric.

In 2023, all three strategic pillars of the Company’s business contributed toward strong performance, including: (i) underwriting where we achieved our best combined ratio since 2009; (ii) our investment strategy where Solasglas Investments, LP, the fund we invest into, achieved a strong 9.4% return for the year despite volatile market conditions; and (iii) our Innovations strategy where we continued to grow and raise awareness of our brand in the industry.

Corporate Governance Highlights

We are committed to good corporate governance, which promotes the long-term interests of shareholders, strengthens Board and management accountability and helps build public trust in the Company. The section entitled “Corporate Governance and Board of Directors and Committees” below describes our corporate governance framework, which includes the following highlights:

•Annual election of directors •Seven of our ten director nominees are independent, two are female and one is Hispanic •Five of our ten director nominees joined our Board since 2021 •Comprehensive Code of Ethics and Business Conduct and Corporate Governance Guidelines •Conflict of Interest and Related Party Transaction Policy •Since July 2023, one class of ordinary shares across all shareholders •Frequent executive sessions of independent members of the Board and Committees •Separation of the roles of Board Chair, CEO and Lead Independent Director •Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee participates in executive succession planning •Directors elected by majority vote •Annual Board self-assessment process •Board and Committee review of strategic, operational and compliance risks •"Whistleblower” hotline •Ordinary Share Ownership Guidelines for Directors and Named Executive Officers adopted in 2021 •Amended and Restated Insider Trading Policy (including prohibition on hedging and pledging) •Pay for Performance alignment •Coordinated investor outreach •No poison pill •Clawback Policy •Recently formed Sustainability Committee

Proxy Governance Shareholder Engagement

The Board values engaging regularly with the Company’s shareholders. The Company is committed to ongoing engagement with its stakeholders on all matters that are important to our shareholders, including executive compensation, governance, and board diversity. These proxy engagement efforts are led by the Company’s General Counsel under the oversight of the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee, primarily in the months preceding each year’s annual general meeting, and take place through a variety of means including video conferences, telephone calls, quarterly live conference calls, in-person meetings and correspondence with our investors.

CEO Leadership Change and Appointment of Greg Richardson

On November 7, 2023, we announced that Simon Burton, our former CEO, would be departing from the Company and stepping down as a director effective December 31, 2023, and that Greg Richardson would be joining the Company as CEO and director effective January 1, 2024. Mr. Richardson brings numerous years of industry expertise and experience, from a number of underwriting and strategic positions, making him well suited for our CEO role. The Board thanks Mr. Burton for his numerous contributions over the years to help reshape the strategy of the Company, and is confident that under Mr. Richardson’s leadership, Greenlight is well-positioned for future success.

1 As of year-end 2023, we had 63 employees across our offices in the Cayman Islands, Dublin and London.

Corporate Responsibility

Our Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee of our Board, or the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee, has ultimate oversight over our corporate responsibility strategy and practices and is responsible for reporting to the Board periodically on these issues.

Recent initiatives in this area include:

July 2023	At our 2023 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, following our Board’s approval and recommendation in order to improve the Company’s governance structure, shareholders approved eliminating the Company’s former dual-class shareholder structure so that all shareholders of the Company own a single class of ordinary shares.
October 2023	The Company formed its Sustainability Committee, a cross-functional management committee chaired by the Company’s General Counsel and comprised of employees across the Company in various offices. The committee was established to, among other things, champion the adoption and disclosure of sustainability practices across the Company, with oversight by the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee.
1st Quarter 2024 and ongoing	Began greenhouse gas inventory of certain Scope 1 and 2 emissions for the 2024 calendar year from our operations.

Governance

We maintain our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, or the Code of Ethics, that showcases our Company’s commitment to do the right thing. The Code of Ethics has important guidelines, expectations and information that our employees, officers and directors commit to, to guide their day-to-day business behavior. To further align the values of each company stakeholder, we also maintain an insider trading policy, share ownership and retention policy, conflict of interest and related party policies, clawback policy and corporate governance guidelines. See “Corporate Governance Highlights.”

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

We aim to elevate one another’s thinking, challenge long-held beliefs and assumptions and positively influence the social, environmental and economic well-being of our employees and the communities in which we live and operate. We believe our organic efforts relating to diversity, equity and inclusion, as evidenced by the composition of our workforce, is an integral component to our success and our culture.

Anticipating the evolving needs of our business strategy demands diverse ideas, perspectives, expertise and continued innovation. As a part of this effort to build the Company’s future, we continue to focus on fostering a culture of inclusion to attract, develop and retain diverse talent at all levels. As of December 31, 2023, 43% of our employee base (across all different departments and occupations) was female.

Our Company’s Chief Underwriting Officer, Cayman Islands, is female; our Head of Innovation Underwriting is of African origin and was born and grew up in Rwanda; and our recently appointed Active Underwriter for our Lloyd’s Syndicate is female and one of the few female active underwriters across the Lloyd’s market in the role.2

Additionally, the Company maintains a diverse Board. Our director nominees are nationally diverse, comprised of citizens from multiple countries and 20% of our director nominees are female. Diversity continues to be an important consideration in our approach to Board composition. Indeed, three of the last five of our most recent directors appointed to our Board have been diverse by gender or ethnicity, and the Company’s Compensation and Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committees are both now chaired by female directors.

Community

We aim to positively influence social, environmental and economic conditions for our employees, and by extension the communities where we live and work.

The Company and our Board value each of our employees and remain committed to ensuring that a safe and healthy workplace and environment is maintained. The Company is helping our employees and their families thrive by offering comprehensive benefit plans and personal and professional wellness tools, including premium healthcare benefits, life and disability insurance, generous vacation allowances irrespective of title and position, a health and wellness stipend, a flexible work policy and company-sponsored access to professional development and training seminars and programs. In addition to fostering an environment of workplace respect, we encourage employees to preserve and promote a clean, safe, and healthy local and global environment. In addition, the Company offers, among other activities, social events organized by the Company’s Social Committee, and a new peer nominated employee recognition program put in place in early 2024.

The Company has had a Charity Committee since 2006, which is composed of employees with oversight from a designated executive officer. The Charity Committee considers donation requests by employees that focus on areas of environment, youth and sports, arts and culture and benevolence. Additionally, at the discretion of the designated executive officer, the Company matches contributions made by our employees to non-profit organizations, including to environmental and social causes. During 2023, the Company supported the Alex Panton Foundation which focuses on mental well-being, the YMCA, Meals on Wheels, LIFE—Literacy for Everyone and the Government of the Cayman Islands Department of Youth Services’ “Proud of them” campaign.

Since 2008, we have maintained a scholarship program that provides financial assistance to Caymanian students who wish to further their post-high school education, allowing them to obtain degrees or vocational training in the field of their choice. We are proud that during 2023, we provided scholarship funds to 13 Caymanian students to assist with their post-secondary education, and we have provided scholarship funds to over 100 students since inception of the program.

2 According to market research by the insurance publication Insurance Insider, as of late 2023, only nine of the 99 active underwriter positions at Lloyd’s syndicates were occupied by female executives.

2024 PROXY STATEMENT 7

GREENLIGHT RE

Environmental

Climate change is a clear and present threat to the long-term health of our planet. Accordingly, the Company understands its responsibility not only to provide solutions that help our clients manage their environmental and climate change risks, but also to monitor and control our carbon usage and ecological impact resulting from our operations. Our Company is headquartered in Camana Bay, Grand Cayman, which is a community that values sustainable practices and initiatives, including a solar energy program, a recycling program, a farmers market to encourage locally-sourced food, and electric vehicle charging stations. We are also proud that our office in Dublin, which is our second largest by headcount and space, had its electricity supplied entirely by renewable sources for the 2023 year. In light of expanding office space requirements occasioned by growth of the Company, we continue to focus on commercial office spaces and locations that exhibit positive sustainability features.

Further, while our operations do not have a large physical footprint, we recognize that even the smallest measures contribute to minimizing our environmental impact and maximizing the sustainability of our business. As part of those small efforts, we have reduced our printing (including for instance a paperless claims processing system designed to eliminate the need for printing hard copies of claims files), started a new recycling program in our Cayman headquarters, leverage cloud application services and third party hosting to reduce datacenter processing, and promote flex hours and a work-from-home policy to help reduce traffic congestion and commuting emissions.

In addition, by virtue of our business, the Company assesses and offers protection against weather-related risks such as hurricanes, storms, wildfires and floods, helping businesses and individuals proactively manage their exposure to such risks. As insured losses from natural catastrophes continue to increase due to such factors as human population growth, urbanization, economic development and a higher concentration of assets in exposed areas, as well as a trend of increasing large losses from secondary perils (such as hail, flood, storm or bushfire), we continue to offer solutions to our clients and customers to help mitigate the increased costs that climate change is exacerbating. We actively include environmental risks within our modelling and risk management practices, in order to inform our underwriting decisions. Our continuous efforts to update and refine our risk perception in alignment with evolving loss and hazard trends allow us to remain agile and often more responsive than traditional vendor models. Our strategy in this area integrates a broad spectrum of data sources, including modelled cedant data and claims to inform our pricing and underwriting strategies. In assessing climate and environmental-related risks, we also rely on a diverse set of external data, including from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Memberships & Sponsorships

The Company routinely considers professional affiliations and memberships with positive corporate responsibility impacts. For instance, the Company is currently as of year-end 2023 the only Cayman-headquartered active underwriting member of the Reinsurance Association of America (“RAA”), an organization that is committed to working with policymakers, regulators, and the scientific, academic and business communities to assist in promoting awareness and understanding of the risks associated with climate change. Among other activities in this area, the RAA is committed to promoting research on climate change, including improvements in the capability to assess climate change and extreme weather events, supports climate change awareness for insurers and policyholders, and supports the efforts of its members and other private market participants to develop and offer financial products and services using risk-based pricing to assist in managing the financial risk associated with climate change and catastrophic risk.

The Company also considers environmental causes with regard to its sponsorships and donations. For instance, the Company is a proud supporter and “diamond level” sponsor of the National Trust for the Cayman Islands and in 2023 provided donations to the National Trust in relation to wetlands and mangrove preservation. The National Trust is a nonprofit organization created to preserve the biodiversity of the Cayman Islands, working through education and conservation to protect environmentally sensitive areas across all three Cayman Islands.

VOTING

Voting Procedures

As a shareholder of GLRE, you have a right to vote on certain business matters affecting GLRE. The proposals that will be presented at the Meeting and upon which you are being asked to vote are discussed below under the “Proposals” section. Each ordinary share of GLRE you own as of the record date, May 1, 2024, entitles you to one vote on each proposal presented at the Meeting, subject to certain provisions of our Articles, as described below under “Voting Securities and Vote Required.”

Electronic Availability of Proxy Materials for 2024 Annual Meeting

Under rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, we are furnishing proxy materials to our shareholders primarily via the Internet, instead of mailing printed copies of those materials to each shareholder. On or about May 14, 2024 we will mail to our shareholders (other than those who previously requested electronic or paper delivery of all proxy materials) a Notice of Internet Availability containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials, including our proxy statement and our annual report. The Notice of Internet Availability also instructs you on how to access your proxy card to vote over the Internet, by mail or telephone.

This process is designed to expedite shareholders’ receipt of proxy materials, help conserve natural resources and lower the cost of the Meeting. However, if you would prefer to receive printed proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the Notice of Internet Availability. If you have previously elected to receive our proxy materials electronically, you will continue to receive these materials via e-mail unless you elect otherwise.

Requesting a Paper Copy of Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies to satisfy the delivery requirements for notices of annual meetings, proxy statements, proxy cards and annual reports with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single set of proxy materials to those shareholders. A single notice will be delivered to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received. Shareholders sharing an address who are currently receiving multiple copies may also request delivery of a single copy. Any registered shareholder receiving a Notice of Internet Availability who would like to request a separate paper copy of these materials, should: (1) go to www.envisionreports.com/GLRE and follow the instructions provided; (2) send an e-mail message to investorvote@computershare.com with “Proxy Materials Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd.” in the subject line and provide your name, address and the control number that appears in the box on the Notice of Internet Availability, and state in the e-mail that you want a paper copy of current meeting materials; or (3) call our stock transfer agent (Toll Free) at 1(866) 641-4276.

VOTING SECURITIES AND VOTE REQUIRED

As of April 19, 2024, 35,411,089 ordinary shares, par value $0.10 per share are issued and outstanding. This is our only class of equity shares outstanding and entitled to vote at the Meeting.

Ordinary Shares

Each ordinary share is entitled to one vote per share. However, except upon unanimous consent of our Board, no holder is permitted to acquire an amount of shares which would cause any person to own (directly, indirectly or constructively under applicable United States tax attribution and constructive ownership rules) 9.9% or more of the total voting power of the total issued and outstanding ordinary shares, such person referred to hereinafter as a 9.9% Shareholder. In May 2023, in connection with the proposals that passed at our 2023 AGM eliminating our former dual-class share structure, our Board consented to our Chairman David Einhorn beneficially owning more than 9.9% of the total voting power of the total issued and outstanding ordinary shares, up to the amount of ordinary shares beneficially owned by David Einhorn at the time of the consent (i.e., 6,254,714 ordinary shares).

Quorum; Vote Required

The attendance of two or more persons representing, in person or by proxy, more than 50% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares as of May 1, 2024, the record date for the determination of persons entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting, or the Record Date, is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Meeting. Assuming that a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the holders of a simple majority of the votes cast by the holders of ordinary shares present in person or represented by proxy at a general meeting of the Company and entitled to vote will be required to elect each of the director nominees named in proposal 1 and to approve proposals 2 and 3, each set forth in the Notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. Although the advisory votes in proposal 3 is non-binding as provided by law, our Board of Directors will review the result of the vote and take it into account in making future determinations concerning executive compensation.

With regard to any proposal or director nominee, votes may be cast in favor of or against such proposal or director nominee or a shareholder may abstain from voting on such proposal or director nominee. Abstentions will be excluded entirely from the vote and will have no effect except that abstentions and “broker non-votes” will be counted toward determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business. Generally, broker non-votes occur when ordinary shares held by a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted on a particular proposal because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner, and the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular proposal.

SOLICITATION AND REVOCATION

Proxies must be received by us by 11:59 p.m. (local time) on July 24, 2024, the day prior to the Meeting day. A shareholder may revoke his or her proxy at any time up to one hour prior to the commencement of the Meeting.

To do this, you must:

•enter a new vote by telephone, over the Internet or by signing and returning another proxy card at a later date;

•file a written revocation with the Secretary of the Company at our address set forth above;

•file a duly executed proxy bearing a later date; or

•appear in person at the Meeting and vote in person.

The individuals designated as proxies in the proxy card are officers of the Company.

All ordinary shares represented by properly executed proxies that are returned, and not revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions, if any, given thereon. If no instructions are provided in an executed proxy, it will be voted FOR the election of each director nominee named in proposal 1, FOR each of proposals 2 and 3, each proposal as described herein as set forth on the accompanying form of proxy, and in accordance with the proxy holder’s best judgment as to any other business as may properly come before the Meeting. If a shareholder appoints a person other than the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy to represent him or her, such person should vote the shares in respect of which he or she is appointed proxy holder in accordance with the directions of the shareholder appointing him or her.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTEES

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board is committed to objective, independent leadership and views independent oversight as central to effective Board governance, serving the interests of our shareholders and other stakeholders, and to executing on our strategic objectives and creating long term value.

Since the Company’s formation in 2004, the Company has separated the positions of Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. David Einhorn, who, through an affiliate, sponsored the Company and is the President of DME Advisors, the investment advisor of Solasglas Investments, LP, or SILP, in which each of Greenlight Re and GRIL is a limited partner, has served as Chair of the Board since August 2004. Since January 1, 2024, Mr. Greg Richardson has served as Chief Executive Officer of the Company following the departure of Simon Burton. Joseph Platt is our Lead Director.

We believe it is the Chair of the Board’s responsibility to run the Board, the Lead Director’s responsibility to provide independent oversight and chair executive sessions of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer’s responsibility to run the Company. We believe it is beneficial to have a Chair of the Board who can concentrate on leading the Board and not have to be involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company and a Lead Director who can focus on chairing meetings of the independent directors, including executive sessions, and ensure that the concerns of the independent directors are heard.

By having three different individuals serve as Chair of the Board, Lead Director and Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Executive Officer is able to focus the vast amount of his time and energy in running the Company and furthering its operational business strategy. We believe our board leadership structure with a Chair of the Board with significant investment experience and expertise, an independent Lead Director with significant board experience and a Chief Executive Officer with significant leadership and management experience and expertise, complements our underwriting and investment strategies and helps us to further our business strategy and objectives.

We currently have seven independent directors and three non-independent directors. The non-independent directors are David Einhorn, Chair of the Board, Greg Richardson, and Daniel Roitman. Our current independent directors are Johnny Ferrari, Ursuline Foley, Leonard Goldberg, Victoria Guest, Ian Isaacs, Bryan Murphy and Joseph Platt. We currently have an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee, each of which is composed solely of independent directors, as well as an Underwriting Committee. Our Board is committed to maintaining a majority independent Board and believes that the number of independent, experienced directors on our Board provides the necessary and appropriate oversight for our Company.

Board and Committee Risk Oversight

The Board provides oversight with respect to the Company’s risk assessment and risk management duties, which are designed to identify, prioritize, assess, monitor, address and mitigate material risks to the Company, including strategic, operational, compliance, public reporting, cybersecurity, technology, financial, underwriting, legal, regulatory, tax, compensatory and ESG risks. The Board administers oversight function at the Board level and through the Audit Committee, the Underwriting Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee. The Board oversees strategic, operational and compliance risks.

Each of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Underwriting Committee and the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee is responsible for discussing certain guidelines and policies with management that govern the process by which risk assessment and control is handled.

Independence

The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee and the Board of Directors have reviewed the responses of nominees to a questionnaire asking about their relationships (and those of immediate family members) with the Company and other potential conflicts of interest and have reviewed Nasdaq National Market Place Rule 5605, or Rule 5605, in determining the independence of each director nominee.

Platt and Isaacs is independent, the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee considered his respective limited partner interest in the Greenlight Funds, other relationship with Mr. Einhorn, including charitable giving, and the fact that over the last three fiscal years no director received any compensation or other special benefits from the Greenlight Funds or DME Advisors. Under Rule 5605, the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility considered the investments of Messrs. Platt and Isaacs in the Greenlight Funds, and ultimately determined that such investments would not interfere with their respective ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities as a director of the Company.

The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee considered that Mr. Goldberg was the chief executive officer of the Company from 2005 to 2011 and the interim chief executive officer in 2017 and that Institutional Shareholder Services does not, pursuant to its own voting guidelines, deem Mr. Goldberg to be independent. Notwithstanding, the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee determined that Mr. Goldberg is independent pursuant to Rule 5605.

GREENLIGHT RE

The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee recognizes the benefits associated with a diverse group of directors and takes diversity considerations into account when identifying director candidates. The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee considers diversity in the broadest context, including race, national origin, gender and sexuality, as well as diversity of professional experience, employment history, and experience on other boards of directors and as management of other companies.

In addition to the foregoing, we note that our director nominees are nationally diverse, comprised of citizens from the United States, Cayman Islands, Canada, Colombia, and Ireland.

Self-Evaluation and Peer Review Processes

Board evaluation plays an important role in assessing the effectiveness of our Board. Pursuant to our Corporate Governance Guidelines, each of our directors, on an annual basis, is subject to a self-evaluation and peer review. In 2023, the Board augmented the self-evaluation process from written questionnaires to entirely oral interviews, conducted by the chair of the Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee and the Company’s Lead Director, respectively, in order to encourage greater free-flowing and candid discussions and responses by each of the directors throughout the process.

The Nominating, Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee monitors the self-evaluation and peer review process and oversees the evaluation of the Board’s performance, Board composition and skill set, refreshment and committee leadership, in order to, among other things, ensure that the Board and its committees are providing the Company with the best leadership structure given the Company’s current and anticipated needs. The results of the process are then discussed with the full Board and in executive session without management.

Insider Trading and Hedging and Pledging Policies

In March 2023, the Company amended and restated its insider trading policy, which is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, regulations and listing standards. The insider trading policy also prohibits our officers, directors, alternate directors and employees from entering into hedging transactions of our ordinary shares. Hedging transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts and other transactions designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of a person’s stock holdings, are prohibited. The amended and restated insider trading policy prohibits our officers, directors and employees from pledging our ordinary shares as collateral to secure a loan or other obligation and placing any of our ordinary shares in a margin account, except that pledges that were in place at the date of adoption of the amended and restated insider trading policy are not subject to this prohibition.

Clawback Policies

In March 2023, the Company adopted a clawback policy, or the Clawback Policy, which is intended to comply with Section 10(d) of the Exchange Act. The Clawback Policy provides that incentive compensation (cash and equity) paid to our current and former officers, and such other senior executives who may from time to time be deemed subject to the policy by the Compensation Committee or the Board, may be recovered in the event of a restatement of our financial results. The recoverable amount under the Clawback Policy is the amount of incentive compensation received in excess of the amount that otherwise would have been received had it been determined based on the restated financial measure, as applicable. In addition, we will take action to modify the Clawback Policy as needed to comply with the Nasdaq listing standards implementing the final SEC rules related thereto. The Company has also implemented clawbacks in connection with our short-term incentive compensation awards.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

All directors, other than Mr. Einhorn and Mr. Roitman and anyone serving in the capacity of our Chief Executive Officer, receive compensation from us for their services as directors. Under the Articles, our directors may receive compensation for their services as may be determined by our Board.

Non-Employee Director Ordinary Share Ownership Requirement

Effective July 29, 2021, our Board of Directors adopted the Share Ownership Guidelines (as defined below), which provide a share ownership requirement for all non-employee directors of five times the annual cash retainer. Non-employee directors as of July 29, 2021 have until July 29, 2026, or five years from the initial effective date of the Share Ownership Guidelines, to achieve the foregoing share ownership requirements. Persons who became or become non-employee directors after July 29, 2021 have up to five years from the date of his or her election to achieve the foregoing share ownership requirements. If any non-employee director is not in compliance with the Share Ownership Guidelines within the applicable five-year period, then the annual cash retainer will be paid in ordinary shares until such time as compliance is achieved. As of December 31, 2023, all of our directors were in compliance with our Share Ownership Guidelines, subject to transition periods. See “Principal Shareholders” below for each director’s shareholding.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES ABOVE.

PROPOSAL TWO: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF THE COMPANY’S AUDITORS

Upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, our Board proposes that the shareholders ratify the appointment of Deloitte Ltd. to serve as the independent auditors of the Company for the 2024 fiscal year until the Company’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in 2025. Deloitte Ltd. served as the independent auditors of the Company for the 2022 and 2023 fiscal years. Services provided to us in fiscal 2023 are described under “Independent Public Accountant Fees and Services” below. Although approval is not required, the Board is submitting the ratification of Deloitte to our shareholders because we value our shareholders’ views on our independent auditor. In the event of a negative vote on such ratification, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection. Even if this appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. A representative of Deloitte Ltd. will be available to respond to any questions at the Meeting and may make a statement if he or she so desires.

PROPOSAL THREE: ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

 The Compensation Discussion and Analysis of this proxy statement describes the Company’s executive compensation program and the compensation decisions made by our Compensation Committee and our Board in 2023 with respect to our Chief Executive Officer and certain other executive officers (whom we refer to as the “named executive officers”). In accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, our Board is asking shareholders to cast a non-binding advisory vote on the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the shareholders of Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (“GLRE”) approve the compensation of the GLRE executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (which disclosure includes the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the executive compensation tables and the related footnotes and narrative accompanying the tables).”

As we describe in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, our executive compensation program embodies a performance-driven philosophy that supports GLRE’s business strategy and aligns the interests of our executives with our shareholders. Our Board believes this link between compensation and the achievement of our long-term business goals has helped drive GLRE’s performance over time. At the same time, we believe our program does not encourage excessive risk-taking by management.

For these reasons, our Board asks shareholders to support this proposal. While the advisory vote we are asking you to cast is non-binding, our Compensation Committee and our Board value the views of our shareholders and will take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future compensation decisions for our named executive officers. We currently plan to hold an annual advisory vote on compensation.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE RESOLUTION APPROVING THE COMPANY’S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Annual “Say-on-Pay” Vote

Our Board of Directors believes that allowing our shareholders to vote on our executive compensation practices on an annual basis aligns with market best practices and provides our shareholders with an important opportunity to provide meaningful feedback to us.

The Board and the Compensation Committee intend to continue actively evaluating our compensation policies and practices and to consider shareholder feedback and the results of our “Say-on-Pay” votes when making future compensation decisions for our NEOs. We are pleased to have received a high level of voting approval, 95%, for the Say-on-Pay advisory vote at our most recent 2023 Annual General Meeting.

Named Executive Officers

For 2023, our named executive officers, or NEOs, and their respective titles as of December 31, 2023 were as follows:

•Simon Burton, Chief Executive Officer (1);

•Faramarz Romer, Chief Financial Officer;

•Neil Greenspan, Former Chief Financial Officer (2);

•Patrick O’Brien, Chief Executive Officer, GRIL;

•Thomas Curnock, Chief Risk Officer; and

•David Sigmon, General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer & Corporate Secretary.

(1) On November 3, 2023, Mr. Burton and the Company executed a Deed of Settlement and Release, or the Burton Separation Agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Burton’s employment with the Company terminated effective as of December 31, 2023.

(2) On March 6, 2023, Mr. Greenspan and the Company executed a Deed of Settlement and Release, or the Greenspan Separation Agreement, pursuant to which Mr. Greenspan’s employment with the Company terminated effective as of March 31, 2023.

Mr. Burton was a named executive officer for 2023 based on his position as our Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Romer was a named executive officer for 2023 based on his position as our Chief Financial Officer following his promotion to the role in April 2023 and Mr. Greenspan was a named executive officer for 2023 based on his former position as our Chief Financial Officer in 2023. Messrs. O’Brien, Curnock, and Sigmon were named executive officers for 2023 by reason of being three of the Company’s most highly compensated executive officers other than persons serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, who were serving as executive officers as of December 31, 2023.

Compensation Policy

In general, we seek to pay salaries that are commensurate with the salaries paid to executives at other reinsurance companies. However, as we are the first open market property and casualty reinsurer operating in the Cayman Islands, no direct comparisons can, generally, be made.

Our performance-driven compensation policy consists of the following three main components:

•base salary;

•bonuses; and

•equity-based compensation.

We generally use short-term compensation composed of base salary and annual cash bonuses and long-term compensation comprised of restricted share units (“RSUs”), and/or restricted shares, as applicable, in an effort to align our employees’ and executive officers’ interests with those of our shareholders and increase long-term growth in book value per share. In addition, from time to time and under certain circumstances, we award sign-on bonuses, retention bonuses and other bonuses and/or bonus opportunities.

Our Compensation Committee reviews and approves all recommendations made with respect to bonuses, RSUs, and restricted shares, as applicable, for all of our employees, including our NEOs. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves all discretionary, sign-on, retention and other bonuses, if any, of our NEOs. Each year, our Chief Executive Officer provides information and recommendations to the Compensation Committee with respect to individual performance to assist the Compensation Committee with its analysis and evaluation of each employee’s compensation, including the NEOs.

2024 PROXY STATEMENT 31

GREENLIGHT RE

Our Chief Executive Officer does not make recommendations regarding his own compensation. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee considers the performance of our Chief Executive Officer and determines and approves the amount of any discretionary retention and/or other bonus that he receives. While the Compensation Committee considers the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer, it is not bound by his recommendations.

In recent years, the Company retained Mercer, a compensation consultant, to provide support related to matters typically handled by the Compensation Committee, including related to compensation strategy and incentive plan design. The work conducted by Mercer has included, among other things, peer group development, executive compensation benchmarking analysis, and incentive compensation program design. The Compensation Committee obtains legal advice regarding executive compensation matters from the Company’s General Counsel as well as the Compensation Committee’s independent outside legal counsel. The Compensation Committee has considered whether the work of Mercer as a compensation consultant has raised any potential conflicts of interest, taking into account the following factors: (i) the amount of fees paid by us to Mercer as a percentage of that firm’s total revenue; (ii) the provision of other services to us by Mercer; (iii) Mercer’s policies and procedures that are designed to prevent conflicts of interest; (iv) any business or personal relationship of the individual compensation advisors with any of our executive officers; (v) any business or personal relationship of the individual compensation advisors with any member of the Compensation Committee and (vi) any ownership of our stock by Mercer or the individual compensation advisors. Based on the above factors, the Compensation Committee has concluded that the work of Mercer, including the work performed by the individual compensation advisors employed by Mercer, has not created any conflict of interest.

Role of the Compensation Consultant and Refreshed 2023 Peer Group

In 2023, due to factors such as mergers and acquisition activity impacting our peer group for 2022, the Compensation Committee engaged Mercer to consider a refresh of the set of peer group companies for use as a point of comparison in assessing the competitiveness of 2023 compensation for certain executive officers. Data compiled from this refreshed peer group (listed below), as well as from reliable compensation survey databases, has been used as a baseline reference by the Compensation Committee to assist it in establishing and assessing target total compensation levels, as well as target compensation levels for individual components of compensation for our executive officers. When making compensation decisions, we also look at the compensation of our NEOs relative to the compensation paid to similarly-situated executives at companies that we consider to be our peers, which is referred to as “benchmarking.” However, we believe that a benchmark serves as a point of reference, but is not a determinative factor, for our executives’ compensation. Such comparative information is just one of the factors considered in setting executive compensation and the Compensation Committee has the discretion to consider the nature and extent of its use.

The refreshed peer group used to assist in making the compensation decisions for 2023, which we refer to as our 2023 peer group, was selected primarily based on the peer companies’ similarities to us as of the time the survey was performed, based on factors such as revenue and other financials, such as asset size, book value, EBITDA and market capitalization, and business mix and industry. As noted above, certain companies were removed from our peer group in 2023 as a result of such factors as mergers and acquisitions and dissimilarities to our business.

The 2023 peer group is comprised of the following companies:
Arch Capital Group, Ltd.	Everest Group, Ltd.	Proassurance Corporation
AXIS Capital Holdings Limited	Hiscox Ltd.	RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd.
Conduit Holdings Limited	James River Group Holdings, Ltd.	SiriusPoint Ltd.
Employers Holdings, Inc.	Kinsale Capital Group, Inc.	United Fire Group, Inc.
Enstar Group Limited	Lancashire Holdings Limited

The Compensation Committee strives to target total pay at levels that are within reasonable range of market based on various criteria, including, but not limited to, experience, time in role, performance, and scope of responsibility in comparison to benchmarks.

Base Salary

We use base salary to recognize the experience, skills, knowledge, roles and responsibilities of our employees and executive officers. When establishing the base salaries of our NEOs, our Compensation Committee considers a number of factors, including:

•the individual’s years of experience;

•the functional role of the individual’s position;

•the level of the individual’s responsibility;

•our ability to replace the individual; and

•to the extent applicable, the limited number of well-qualified candidates available in or willing to relocate to the Cayman Islands.

Base salaries are reviewed and considered by the Compensation Committee on an annual basis or as otherwise deemed appropriate by the Compensation Committee.

The annual base salaries for NEOs as of December 31, 2023, including their percentage increase over their salaries in effect on December 31, 2022 were as follows:

Name	2023 Base Salary ($)	2022 Base Salary ($)	% Increase
Simon Burton	800,000	800,000	—%
Faramarz Romer(1)	465,000	367,500	27%
Neil Greenspan(2)	500,000	500,000	—%
Patrick O'Brien(3)	437,400	405,000	8%
Thomas Curnock	450,000	420,000	7%
David Sigmon(4)	390,000	—	N/A

(1) As previously disclosed, Faramarz Romer was promoted to the CFO role effective April 1, 2023.

(2) Mr. Greenspan’s base salary was $500,000 in 2023 prior to his departure from the Company.

(3) Because he is based in Ireland, Mr. O’Brien’s cash compensation is generally paid to him in Euros rather than United States dollars. Amounts reported as “2023 Base Salary” and “2022 Base Salary” are based on an average conversion rate for 2023, which was $1.08 United States dollars for each Euro.

(4) Mr. Sigmon joined the Company as General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer & Corporate Secretary in April 2023.

Bonuses

Short-Term Incentive Plan

We use bonuses to reward individual and company performance. We expect our bonuses to be variable from year to year. Our Compensation Committee determines each NEO’s target bonus, expressed as a percentage of base salary. The target bonuses of the NEOs were set by the Compensation Committee based on the scope and significance of each NEO’s role, with the CEO receiving the highest target due to his greater responsibilities.

In 2021, following Mercer’s review of our compensation practices, the Compensation Committee recommended to our Board, and the Board approved, a new annual bonus program, which we refer to as the Short-Term Incentive Plan, which is administered by the Compensation Committee. No incentive cycles prior to 2021 under our previously-disclosed prior bonus program, which we refer to as the Prior Bonus Program, are impacted other than as previously disclosed. The Short-Term Incentive Plan replaces the Prior Bonus Program with a more market-based short-term incentive plan. The guiding principles related to our new short-term incentive plan were to make the plan easy to understand, transparent and reward controllable results, incentivize management decisions that would support long-term growth and profitability, and promote retention through real near-term earnings potential.

Eligible employees, which include all full-time salaried employees, who become participants in the Short-Term Incentive Plan for a specific plan year will be eligible to receive a target bonus opportunity expressed as a percentage of base salary. Actual participation in the Short-Term Incentive Plan will be determined with respect to each plan year and will be based on the recommendations of our CEO, and will be subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee. All of the NEOs were eligible to participate in the Short-Term Incentive Plan for the 2023 plan year. Target bonus opportunities will vary by individual participant and may vary among employees in the same salary grade level or same internal reporting relationship.

2024 PROXY STATEMENT 33

GREENLIGHT RE

Awards under the Short-Term Incentive Plan may be earned based upon achievement of certain performance metrics, financial or otherwise, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The aggregate target bonus opportunity may be broken down into two parts: (1) the company performance target bonus and (2) the individual performance target bonus. The weightings of each metric, to the extent applicable, which may vary by participant, are recommended by the CEO (other than with respect to the CEO whose weightings are determined by the Compensation Committee) and determined by the Compensation Committee. The metrics and the associated weightings may be changed from plan year to plan year.

The Compensation Committee will select one or more of the following as the company performance criteria related to the company performance target bonus for each plan year: (1) adjusted operating profit; (2) growth in book value per share; (3) total shareholder return; (4) underwriting loss ratio; (5) underwriting combined ratio; (6) expense ratio; (7) net income; or (8) any other performance criteria that the Compensation Committee may select in its discretion. Each selected company performance criteria will be assigned a threshold, target and maximum level of achievement as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion. The company performance criteria and requisite level of performance corresponding to threshold and maximum levels of performance (including the corresponding percentage of the company performance target bonus that can be earned) may be changed from plan year to plan year, but in no event may the maximum level of performance result in a payment in excess of 200% of the company performance target bonus.

Performance and bonus achievement are measured following the end of the single year performance period and bonuses are generally paid in cash following the Board’s approval of audited fiscal year results and the determination by the CEO or the Compensation Committee, as applicable, of individual performance levels, but in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year to which the bonus relates, subject generally to continued employment through the last day of the performance period (and not having given or received notice of termination); provided, however, that if a participant’s employment terminates due to death or disability prior to the last day of the performance period, the participant will be entitled to a pro-rata bonus based on actual performance for the year in which the termination occurs, subject to compliance with the terms of the participant’s employment agreement or offer letter, as applicable. If a participant commences participation in the Short-Term Incentive Plan after the first day of the applicable plan year, any such bonus payable in respect of such plan year will be pro-rated based on the portion of the year employed.

All payments under the Short-Term Incentive Plan may (or, to the extent required by law or listing standards of any securities exchange on which our securities are listed, will) be subject to recoupment, cancellation, reduction or forfeiture (1) in accordance with any clawback or similar policy adopted by the Board or the Compensation Committee, (2) in accordance with any clawback or similar policy that we are required to adopt pursuant to any applicable listing standards or applicable law or (3) in the event of fraud or any financial restatements or irregularities. In March 2023, the Board adopted a clawback policy designed to comply with Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and with the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC Rule 5608, that provides for the recoupment of certain incentive compensation.

2023 Short-Term Incentive Plan Awards

For 2023, the target annual bonus opportunity, expressed as a percentage of annual base salary, for the NEOs were as follows:

Name	2023 Target Bonus Opportunity (% of Base Salary)
Simon Burton	100%
Faramarz Romer	50%
Neil Greenspan (1)	N/A
Patrick O'Brien	60%
Thomas Curnock	50%
David Sigmon	50%

(1) Pursuant to the terms of the Greenspan Separation Agreement, Mr. Greenspan was not entitled to a 2023 annual bonus.

In respect of 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that awards under the Short-Term Incentive Plan would be based upon achievement of company performance and individual performance. The weightings between company and individual performance for the annual incentive compensation opportunities vary among our NEOs. For 2023, the weightings of the NEOs were set by the Compensation Committee based on the scope of each NEO’s role, as follows:

Name	Company Performance	Individual Performance
Simon Burton	75%	25%
Faramarz Romer	50%	50%
Neil Greenspan (1)	50%	50%
Patrick O'Brien	75%	25%
Thomas Curnock	75%	25%
David Sigmon	50%	50%

(1) Pursuant to the terms of the Greenspan Separation Agreement, Mr. Greenspan was not entitled to a 2023 annual bonus.

In respect of 2023, the Compensation Committee determined that company performance would be measured based upon achievement of adjusted operating profit, or 2023 AOP Metric, as this metric reflects management’s contribution to long term profitability and operational efficiency. With respect to the 2023 fiscal year, the AOP Metric means the sum of (i) the 2023 underwriting income and (ii) the 2023 strategic investments income (net of tax), less (iii) 2023 corporate innovations-related expense, as a percentage of book value measured as of January 1, 2023.

Under the Short-Term Incentive Plan, participants will be eligible to receive a bonus related to the company performance criteria, to the extent applicable, if we achieve at least the threshold level of performance for the applicable performance period. If the threshold level of performance related to the 2023 AOP Metric was not attained, no portion of the award allocated to that metric would have been earned, and if the maximum level of performance related to the 2023 AOP Metric was attained, participants would have been eligible to receive 200% of the target award related to such metric. In 2023, the actual 2023 AOP Metric was 6.3%, which resulted in 93.8% payout. Adjusted operating profit is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to Annex 1 for definition of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

Performance Measure	Threshold (50%)	Target (100%)	Maximum (200%)	Actual	Payout
2023 AOP	3.0%	6.8%	12.0%	6.3%	93.8%

Linear interpolation is used to calibrate payouts between the threshold, target and maximum levels.

The individual performance metric ranges from 0% of the target award related to that metric to 100% of the target award related to that metric. The Compensation Committee determines the percentage of the individual performance target bonus, if any, that each named executive officer is eligible to earn. In determining the individual performance payout percentages for each of our NEOs, the Compensation Committee considers, among other things, the contributions by each individual based upon his or her area of responsibility to:

•The transformation, diversification and performance of our underwriting platform and long-term growth strategy;

•The strength and improvement of our A.M. Best financial ratings and maintenance of regulatory compliance; and

•The judicious deployment of capital that is not contractually allocated to our alternative investment strategy.

2024 PROXY STATEMENT 35

GREENLIGHT RE

The Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, may consider subjective criteria relating to performance and accomplishments on an individual and comparative basis. These criteria include, but are not limited to:

•The strength and development of each individual’s contributions to our strategic goals and our client, broker, shareholder and other stakeholder relationships;

•the quality and professionalism of the individual in support of the Board, the management team and our employees, including individual contributions to team development, engagement and motivation, and succession planning; and

•the Company’s desire to retain the executive and align his or her interests with those of our shareholders.

In connection with its review of 2023 individual performance, the Compensation Committee approved individual performance for the NEOs as follows:

Name	Actual
Simon Burton(1)	100%
Faramarz Romer	100%
Neil Greenspan(2)	—%
Patrick O'Brien	100%
Thomas Curnock	100%
David Sigmon(3)	100%

(1) Pursuant to terms of the Burton Separation Agreement, Mr. Burton’s individual performance was deemed to be achieved at target.

(2) Pursuant to the terms of the Greenspan Separation Agreement, Mr. Greenspan was not entitled to a 2023 annual bonus.

(3) Mr. Sigmon’s individual performance was based on a pro-rated calendar year in 2023 because he joined the Company in April 2023.

Incentive compensation earned under the Short-Term Incentive Plan for the 2023 fiscal year was paid in March 2024, and for each applicable NEO disclosed in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column for such year in the Summary Compensation Table below.

Prior Bonus Program

In March 2024, the Compensation Committee approved the updated 2018 underwriting year calculations for the quantitative bonus pool with respect to the Prior Bonus Program based on performance through December 31, 2023 and declared the 2018 underwriting year closed. For the 2018 underwriting year, the updated calculations reflect below-threshold performance and, as such, no quantitative bonus will be awarded. The only underwriting year that remains open under the Prior Bonus Program is 2019.

Sign-On Bonuses

From time to time, the Compensation Committee may award sign-on bonuses in connection with the commencement of an NEO’s employment with us. Sign-on bonuses are used only when necessary to attract highly skilled officers to the Company. Generally they are used to incentivize candidates to leave their current employers or may be used to offset the loss of unvested compensation or future income that they may forfeit as a result of leaving their current employer or business. In 2023, as an inducement to join the Company, we awarded Mr. Sigmon a one-time restricted share equity grant in May 2023 to help partially offset the loss of equity compensation Mr. Sigmon forfeited at his prior employer when he joined the Company. The May 2023 restricted share equity grant had a grant date value of $250,000, and cliff vests three years after the grant date generally subject to Mr. Sigmon’s continued employment.

Retention Bonuses

From time to time, the Compensation Committee, based upon a review of competitive conditions and/or the role and skill set of the individual, may approve retention arrangements for certain NEOs and other senior executives.

Stock Incentive Plan Awards

In 2023, we adopted the 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan, or the 2023 Incentive Plan, to promote the interests of the Company and its shareholders by:

•attracting, retaining, motivating, and rewarding exceptional employees, officers, directors and consultants (including prospective employees, officers, directors and consultants) of the Company and its affiliates;

•enabling such individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company; and

•directly linking compensation with Company performance.

36 2024 PROXY STATEMENT

GREENLIGHT RE

The 2023 Incentive Plan became effective on July 25, 2023. The 2023 Incentive Plan replaces the Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time, or the Prior Incentive Plan. The 2023 Incentive Plan shall not terminate amend or modify any provision of the Prior Incentive Plan nor adversely affect any awards granted under the Prior Incentive Plan or rights outstanding under the Prior Incentive Plan, provided, however, that no further awards will be granted under the Prior Incentive Plan.

Our Compensation Committee has decided that, with certain exceptions noted above, restricted shares or RSUs, as applicable, generally are the preferred form of equity compensation as the Compensation Committee believes that restricted shares or RSUs, as applicable, better align management with long-term shareholder value creation. Our Compensation Committee determines the value of restricted share or restricted share unit grants for certain of our NEO after taking into account, among other things, our desire to retain the executive and the executive’s role within the Company. Those executives who are most critical to our future growth generally receive larger awards. Currently, we expect long-term compensation (i.e., 2023 Incentive Plan awards), to continue to represent the majority of each NEO’s compensation.

In order to prevent the backdating of equity awards and to ensure that the timing of awards or the release of material information will not be accelerated or delayed to allow an award recipient to benefit from a more favorable stock price, our Board of Directors and Compensation Committee adopted a policy with respect to our equity grant practices that delineates specific procedures when granting equity awards. We believe this policy helps the integrity of our equity award grant practices.

Our current practice is to grant equity awards in March of each fiscal year, shortly after the filing of our Form 10-K for the preceding year.

In February 2023, our Compensation Committee approved, and, on March 15, 2023, we granted awards of 271,269 ordinary restricted shares to Mr. Burton, 47,634 ordinary RSUs to Mr. O’Brien, 33,081 ordinary restricted shares to Mr. Romer and 49,846 ordinary restricted shares to Mr. Curnock under the Prior Incentive Plan. Each of Messrs. Burton, Romer, O’Brien and Curnock’s 2023 awards under the Prior Incentive Plan consist of a mix of performance-vesting restricted stock or RSUs (33% for Mr. Romer and 67% for the other executives), as applicable, and time-vesting restricted stock or RSUs (67% for Mr. Romer and 33% for the other executives), as applicable.

Time-based awards will vest ratably over a three-year period, generally subject to continued employment through and including each vesting date. Performance-vesting awards will cliff vest, if at all, based on the actual level of achievement against the performance metrics following the end of the three year performance period, generally subject to continued employment through and including the last day of the three year performance period. Performance will be determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee after the completion of the three year performance period pursuant to the terms of the award.

The performance-vesting awards granted in 2023 will be earned, if at all, based on performance against the following metrics: fully diluted book value per share growth (65% weight) and combined ratio (35% weight). Performance metrics and weightings may change from year to year for future awards and the Board and the Compensation Committee reserve the right to modify the metrics and performance measurement based on changes in accounting rules/regulations, and unforeseen event and circumstances. The performance-vesting awards granted in 2023 vest as follows based on achievement of the weighted performance metrics: below threshold, 0% vesting; threshold, 50% vesting; target, 100% vesting; and maximum, 200% vesting. Linear interpolation is used to calibrate payouts between threshold, target and maximum award levels. With respect to each performance metric, the Compensation Committee determined that 22.5% fully diluted book value per share growth and 97% average combined ratio were the appropriate challenging targets for payout at target for the 2023-2025 (inclusive) performance cycle. Combined ratio of more than 99% would result in no payout, 99% would result in 50% payout and 94% or less would result in 200% payout with respect to the combined ratio performance metric. Fully diluted book value per share growth of less than 12.5% would result in no payout, 12.5% would result in 50% payout, and 40.5% would result in 200% payout with respect to the fully diluted book value per share growth performance metric.

These stock awards reflect our Compensation Committee’s desire to retain these executives and align their interests with those of our shareholders.

Retirement Benefits

As with every employer in the Cayman Islands, we are required by the National Pensions Law to provide a pension plan for our employees in the Cayman Islands. We belong to the Coralisle Pension Services Ltd. Pension Plan, which is administered by British Caymanian Insurance Agencies Ltd. Under the Cayman Islands National Pensions Law, all employees between the ages of 18 and 60 must contribute a minimum of 5% of their earnings to a pension plan. An employee also has the option of contributing more than the prescribed minimum. We are required to match the contribution of the first 5% of each participating employee’s salary to a maximum salary amount of $106,098. The Company currently pays both the employee and employer portions of the plan. The pension plan is a defined contribution plan and, as such, the amount that an employee receives upon retirement is directly related to the amount contributed to the plan by, or on behalf of, the employee while working. Once an employee retires (employees become eligible for retirement at age 60 in the Cayman Islands), an employee has the following options for receiving benefits: (i) receive a cash payout if the employee’s retirement savings are less than $6,098; (ii) transfer the retirement savings to a life annuity for investment by a life insurance company and payment of a regular income stream to the employee for the remainder of the employee’s life (and the employee’s spouse’s life if the employee is married at the time of retirement); or (iii) transfer the retirement savings to a Retirement Savings Arrangement account with an approved provider or bank and receive regular income payments until the account is depleted. Each of Messrs. Burton, Greenspan, Romer, Curnock, and Sigmon were eligible to participate in the Coralisle Pension Services Ltd. Pension Plan in 2023.

GRIL established a defined contribution Retirement Solutions plan with Irish Life. In August 2022, GRIL commenced participation in the Irish Life Empower Master Trust with all funds in the Retirement Solution plan being transferred to the Irish Life Empower Master Trust which is a defined contribution retirement benefits scheme operated by Irish Life. All employees of GRIL are eligible to participate in the GRIL section of the master trust, which has been approved by the Irish Revenue Commissioners. GRIL generally makes a contribution to the master trust for all GRIL employees, with the contribution dependent upon the contractual commitment in each employee’s employment contract. Currently, contributions vary from 7.5% of base salary to 20% of base salary. Employees may also make personal contributions to the master trust in accordance with Revenue Commissioner limits which are linked to the age of the employee. The master trust is established under an irrevocable trust, with Law Debenture Master Trust Trustees (Ireland) Designated Activity Company acting as trustee. On May 27, 2020, the GRIL Board approved the replacement of Mr. O’Brien’s pension contribution to the Retirement Solutions plan with Irish Life with a pension allowance, which pension allowance will not result in additional consideration to be paid by GRIL.

For employees in the United Kingdom, a defined contribution Retirement Solutions plan with Smart Pension Master Trust was established in August 2019. All relevant employees are eligible to participate in the plan, with the contribution dependent upon the contractual commitment in each employee’s employment contract. Currently, contributions vary from 7.5% of base salary to 10% of base salary. Employees may also make personal contributions to the scheme in accordance with Inland Revenue rules. The master trust is established under a trust, with EC2 Master Limited acting as trustee.

Welfare Benefits/Perquisites

We offer certain limited welfare benefits and perquisites to our executives, including tax preparation and medical insurance. We intend to continue to maintain our current welfare benefits and perquisites for our executive officers. However, our Compensation Committee may revise, amend or add to these benefit programs at its discretion.

Tax and Accounting Implications

The Compensation Committee considers the income tax consequences of individual compensation elements when analyzing the overall compensation paid to our NEOs. Because we are not a U.S. taxpayer, our compensation program has not been designed to comply with U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). However, with respect to our U.S. taxpayer employees, including certain of our NEOs, we design our compensation arrangements taking into account U.S. Internal Revenue Code Sections 409A and 457A.

We are accounting for stock-based payments in accordance with and to the extent required by FASB ASC Topic 718.

Risk Assessment

The Compensation Committee and management have reviewed our compensation policies as generally applicable to our employees and believe that our policies do not encourage excessive and unnecessary risk-taking, and that the level of risk that they do encourage is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Our compensation philosophy and culture support the use of salary, short-term incentive cash awards and long-term incentive equity throughout our organization and with all levels of employees. In addition, the following specific factors, in particular, reduce the likelihood of excessive risk-taking:

1.Our overall compensation levels are competitive with the market; and

2.Our compensation mix is balanced among (i) fixed components such as salary and benefits, (ii) short-term incentive cash awards and (iii) long-term incentive equity that reward our employees based on long-term overall Company financial performance and operational measures.

We believe our historical compensation programs did not, and our current compensations programs do not, encourage excessive and unnecessary risk taking by NEOs (or other employees) because of its focus on the Company’s performance with only some consideration given to individual performance. The Compensation Committee will continue to monitor the compensation program to discourage excessive and unnecessary risk-taking.

Additionally, the Compensation Committee manages risk by establishing equity ownership guidelines, prohibiting hedging our stock or using it as collateral for any purpose, and implementing clawback policies.

Hedging and Pledging Policies

The Company has adopted policies related to the prohibition of hedging and pledging transactions. For more details on these policies, see “Corporate Governance and Board of Directors and Committees — Hedging and Pledging Policies.”

Clawback Policies

In March 2023, the Company adopted the Clawback Policy, with respect to incentive compensation paid to our current and former executive officers, and such other senior executives who may from time to time be deemed subject to the policy by the Compensation Committee or the Board. We have also implemented clawbacks in connection with our short-term incentive compensation awards starting from 2022, and our equity award agreements, as applicable, also now include clawback and recoupment provisions. See “Corporate Governance and Board of Directors and Committees — Clawback Policies.”

Ordinary Share Ownership Guidelines

NEO Ordinary Share Ownership Guidelines

We believe that broad-based share ownership by our employees, including our NEOs, is the most effective method to deliver superior shareholder returns by increasing the alignment between the interests of our employees and our shareholders. In July 2021, in connection with a review of our corporate governance practices following our most recent “Say-on-Pay” vote and based on input from Mercer in connection with its review of our compensation practices, our Board of Directors adopted the Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. Share Ownership and Retention Policy for Executives and Non-Employee Directors, effective July 29, 2021, or the Share Ownership Guidelines. The Share Ownership Guidelines require that all named executive officers own a significant ownership interest in our ordinary shares, subject to a phase-in period, in order to align their interests with those of our shareholders and in furtherance of the Board of Directors’ intention to follow sound corporate governance practices.

The Share Ownership Guidelines include the following minimum share ownership requirements for our named executive officers:

Position	Multiple
Chief Executive Officer	5x annual base salary
All Other Named Executive Officers	2x annual base salary

2024 PROXY STATEMENT 39

GREENLIGHT RE

For purposes of the Share Ownership Guidelines, ownership includes: our ordinary shares owned through a wholly-owned entity, individually and/or by immediate family members residing in the same household, in each case, that are not hedged, pledged or otherwise encumbered, and restricted shares/RSUs not yet vested that vest based solely on time/service. Ownership does not include unexercised stock options (whether vested or unvested), unexercised share appreciation rights (whether vested or unvested), performance shares/share units, and/or any equity-based awards that may be settled in cash.

The value of our ordinary shares owned by each named executive officer is calculated on an annual basis on each December 31 based upon the Nasdaq Global Select Market’s average closing price for our ordinary shares for the immediately preceding six month period.

NEOs as of July 29, 2021, or the initial effective date of the Share Ownership Guidelines, have until July 29, 2026, or five years from the initial effective date of the Share Ownership Guidelines, to achieve the foregoing share ownership requirements. Persons who became or become NEOs after July 29, 2021 have up to five years from the date of his or her hire or appointment or the date he or she is deemed to be an NEO, as applicable, to achieve the foregoing share ownership requirements. If any NEO is not in compliance with the Share Ownership Guidelines within the applicable five-year period, then 50% of any short-term incentive plan award for a given year will be paid in ordinary shares until such time as compliance is achieved.

As of December 31, 2023, all NEOs were in compliance with our Share Ownership Guidelines, subject to transition periods.

See “Principal Shareholders” below for each NEO’s shareholding.

In addition, the Company, Greenlight Re, and Mr. Greenspan entered into a consulting agreement, dated March 6, 2023, pursuant to which Mr. Greenspan provided non-employee consulting and advisory services to the Employer, on a non-exclusive basis, from April 1, 2023 until July 31, 2023 for a consulting fee of $25,000 per month.

Other NEOs

Upon termination of employment or a change in control, in addition to certain bonuses referenced above, our NEOs may receive accelerated vesting of awards granted under our 2004 Incentive Plan, 2023 Incentive Plan and severance payments under their employment agreements.

Under our 2004 Incentive Plan and 2023 Incentive Plan, our Compensation Committee generally has the discretion to vest unvested awards upon a change in control as described below under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control — The Stock Incentive Plan and Awards Granted Thereunder.” This discretion allows the Compensation Committee to determine at the time of the change in control whether, and the extent to which, additional vesting is warranted.

Upon termination of employment without cause or for good reason (or, with respect to Mr. O’Brien, in the event prior notice (or pay in lieu of notice) is required by GRIL and other than in the case of death), our NEOs are eligible for severance payments. For more details on these payments, see “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control — Employment Agreements.”

The amount of our severance obligations to our NEOs is designed to be competitive with the amounts payable to executives in similar positions at other global reinsurance companies with which we compete for talent. Severance payments are generally made in substantially equal monthly installments and are generally contingent upon the NEO’s continued compliance with the restrictive covenants in his or her employment agreement.

Actions Taken in 2024

Base Salaries & One-Time Discretionary Bonus Awards

In February 2024, our Compensation Committee reviewed the annual base salaries of the NEOs, other than Mr. Burton, our former CEO, and Mr. Greenspan, our former CFO, and took the following actions: increased Mr. Romer’s base salary from $465,000 to $500,000; increased Mr. O’Brien’s base salary from €405,000 to €450,000; increased Mr. Curnock’s base salary from $450,000 to $500,000; and increased Mr. Sigmon’s base salary from $390,000 to $420,000. Further, in light of the extraordinary contributions in 2023 of Messrs. Romer, O’Brien, and Curnock to the Company in light of the CEO transition, the Compensation Committee also approved one-time discretionary bonus awards in the amounts of $6,094, $96,390, and $13,790, respectively.

2023 Stock Incentive Plan Awards

In February 2024, under our 2023 Incentive Plan, our Compensation Committee approved and, on March 15, 2024, we granted the following RSUs to the NEOs (other than Mr. Greenspan, our former CFO, who is no longer with the Company):

The stock awards for Messrs. Romer, O’Brien, Curnock, and Sigmon reflect our desire to retain these executives and align their interests with those of our shareholders, while Mr. Burton’s stock award was negotiated as part of Mr. Burton’s severance and Mr. Burton agreeing to provide certain transition and advisor services as noted above.

(1)Bonus payments in this column for 2023 represent discretionary payments approved by the Compensation Committee in February 2024 to Messrs. Romer, O’Brien and Curnock for extraordinary contributions to the Company in 2023 in connection with the CEO transition process. Bonus payments in this column for 2021 represent the retention bonuses paid to Messrs. Burton, Greenspan, O’Brien and Curnock on July 1, 2021.

(2)All stock awards were granted under our Prior Incentive Plan. The value reported above in the “Stock Awards” column is the aggregate grant date fair value for each NEO’s award determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.” Assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts are included in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The values reported for Messrs. Burton, Romer, O’Brien, Curnock, and Sigmon represent restricted share or restricted share unit awards, as applicable. The 2023 restricted shares and RSUs are discussed under “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Stock Incentive Plan Awards” above. For the stock awards granted in 2023, other than Mr. Sigmon, the values represent the achievement of the performance conditions at the target level of performance conditions. Assuming the highest level of performance achievement as of the grant date, the aggregate grant date value of the awards for Messrs. Burton, Romer, O’Brien, and Curnock, would have been $2,672,000, $325,850, $469,193, and 490,980, respectively. As a result, they do not necessarily represent the actual value that the recipient will receive from the award. For Mr. Sigmon, his award reflects a one-time restricted share grant, with a grant value of $250,000, that cliff vests three years after the grant date generally subject to Mr. Sigmon’s continued employment.

(3)For the 2023 year, the value reported above in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column is the amount paid to the applicable NEOs in March 2024 and relates to the bonus in respect of the 2023 plan year.

(4)See All Other Compensation Table below. For 2022, the amount shown for Mr. Burton includes reimbursement for legal fees and application fees incurred in connection with his application for Cayman permanent residency, per Mr. Burton’s employment agreement.

(5)Mr. Romer was not a Named Executive Officer prior to 2022. Accordingly, only information for the 2022 and 2023 years are provided herein.

(6)Mr. Greenspan departed the Company in March 2023. Accordingly, his salary for 2023 is based on the pro-rated portion paid in 2023.

(7)Because he is based in Ireland, Mr. O’Brien’s cash compensation is generally paid to him in Euros rather than United States dollars. Amounts reported as “Salary,” and “All Other Compensation” are based on an average conversion rate for 2023, which was $1.08 United States dollars for each Euro. As noted above, amounts reported as “Bonus” and “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” were denominated in United States dollars, but will be paid to Mr. O’Brien in Euros rather than United States dollars because he is based in Ireland.

(8)Mr. Sigmon joined the Company in April 2023. Accordingly, his salary for 2023 is based on the pro-rated portion paid in 2023

Employment Agreements

Employment agreements are entered into by the Company when it is determined that an employment agreement assists in obtaining assurance as to the executive’s continued employment in light of the prevailing market competition for the particular position, or where the Compensation Committee believes that an employment agreement is appropriate to attract an executive in light of market conditions and the prior experience of the executive.

Employment agreements with key executive officers further provide the Company protection against the potential loss of business that could result from the departure of a key executive by including restrictive covenants such as non-disclosure, non-compete and non-solicitation provisions in such agreements. The terms of the agreement take into consideration the executive’s prior background, experience, compensation, competitive conditions and negotiations with the executive.

The 2023 Incentive Plan

General

The Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan, or the 2023 Incentive Plan, was established by the Company to promote the interests of the Company and its shareholders by:

•attracting, retaining, motivating, and rewarding exceptional employees, officers, directors and consultants (including prospective employees, officers, directors and consultants) of the Company and its affiliates;

•enabling such individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company; and

•directly linking compensation with Company performance.

The 2023 Incentive Plan became effective on July 25, 2023. The 2023 Incentive Plan is intended to replace the Prior Incentive Plan. The 2023 Incentive Plan shall not terminate, amend or modify any provision of the Prior Incentive Plan nor adversely affect any awards granted under the Prior Incentive Plan or rights outstanding under the Prior Incentive Plan; provided, however, that no further awards will be granted under the Prior Incentive Plan.

Subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the 2023 Incentive Plan, the aggregate number of ordinary shares that are available to be delivered pursuant to awards granted under the 2023 Incentive Plan is equal to the sum of (i) 2,000,000 shares and (ii) any shares that remain or otherwise become available under the Prior Incentive Plan (including as a result of forfeiture, expiration, termination, cancellation or settlement other than by the delivery of shares of awards outstanding under the Prior Incentive Plan) as of July 25, 2023 which was the date of approval of the 2023 Incentive Plan by the Company’s shareholders.

As of December 31, 2023, no options and 65,394 restricted shares or RSUs, net of forfeitures, have been granted under the 2023 Incentive Plan.

Administration

The 2023 Incentive Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee will have the authority to construe and interpret the 2023 Incentive Plan, grant awards and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2023 Incentive Plan. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Compensation Committee may delegate to officers or employees of the Company or any of its affiliates, or committees thereof, the authority, subject to such terms as the Compensation Committee shall determine, to perform such functions under the 2023 Incentive Plan as the Compensation Committee determines appropriate.

Employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company and its affiliates, and individuals who have been offered employment and actually commence employment with the Company and its affiliates, will be eligible to receive awards under the 2023 Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee will determine who will receive awards and the terms and conditions associated with such awards. An employee on an approved leave of absence may be considered as employed by the Company or its affiliates for purposes of eligibility to participate in the 2023 Incentive Plan.

The 2023 Incentive Plan authorizes the award of non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, stock appreciation rights, and other stock-based awards.

2024 PROXY STATEMENT 47

GREENLIGHT RE

Options

Options may be granted to participants in such form and having such terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate. Stock options provide for the purchase of ordinary shares at an exercise price set on the grant date. The exercise price of each option to purchase shares will be set by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant and must generally be at least equal to the fair market value of Company shares on the date of grant. Options granted under the 2023 Incentive Plan may be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee determines. The maximum term of options granted under the 2023 Incentive Plan is generally 10 years, at which time the option is no longer exercisable and expires. No dividend or dividend equivalent rights shall be paid out on options.

Restricted Stock

The Compensation Committee may grant awards consisting of ordinary shares, the restrictions of which will lapse upon the terms that the Compensation Committee determines at the time of grant. The Compensation Committee will determine the requirements for the lapse of the restrictions for the restricted stock awards, which may be based on the service of the participant for a specified time period or the attainment of one or more performance goals. Participants may not sell, transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber the restricted stock award prior to the time the restricted stock award has vested. Participants holding restricted stock awards will have the rights and privileges of shareholders, including to receive all dividends and other distributions with respect thereto, unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise to the extent permitted under applicable law. If a participant has the right to receive dividends paid with respect to a restricted stock award, such dividends shall not be paid to the participant until the underlying award vests. Any shares granted under a restricted stock award are nontransferable, except in limited circumstances.

Restricted Stock Units

An RSU is a notional unit representing the right to receive one ordinary share (or the cash value of one ordinary share) on a specified settlement date. The Compensation Committee may grant awards consisting of RSUs subject to such terms and conditions the Compensation Committee deems appropriate. The Compensation Committee may condition the grant or vesting of RSUs on the achievement of performance conditions and/or the satisfaction of a time-based vesting schedule. RSUs will be settled in shares, cash, or property, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, on the date or dates determined by the Compensation Committee and set forth in an Award Agreement a participant shall not be entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents with respect to RSUs prior to settlement.

Stock Appreciation Rights

Stock Incentive Plan and Awards Granted Thereunder

Under the terms of the 2023 Incentive Plan, as well as the Prior Incentive Plan, unless an option award provides otherwise, upon termination other than for cause, death or disability, all unvested options terminate and the participant may exercise his or her vested options within the period ending upon the earlier of three months following termination or ten years from the grant date of the option (i.e., the option’s expiration date). Unless an option award provides otherwise, upon termination for cause, all vested and unvested options will terminate. Unless an option award provides otherwise, upon termination for death or disability, all unvested options will terminate, and the vested portion of the option may be exercised for the period ending upon the earlier of twelve months following termination or the option’s expiration date.

Under the terms of the option grant which Mr. Burton received in 2017, upon Mr. Burton’s termination due to his death or disability (as defined in his employment agreement, see description above), any unvested portion of the options will terminate and any vested portion of the option will remain exercisable until the expiration date. If Mr. Burton’s permanently retires from the reinsurance industry, is willing to continue to serve as a member of our Board of Directors and does not resign from our Board of Directors as a result of a conflict of interest (collectively referred to as the “retirement conditions”), the vested portion of the option will remain exercisable until expiration. If after retirement, Mr. Burton subsequently fails to satisfy the retirement conditions, such options will revert to remain exercisable for 90 days after such failure. If we terminate Mr. Burton’s employment for cause all vested and unvested portions of the option will terminate. Upon a change of control (as defined below), and pursuant to the 2022 Burton Employment Agreement a termination by the Company without cause or by Mr. Burton for good reason, any unvested portion of the option will vest immediately.

Under the terms of the restricted share awards granted to Mr. Burton in March of each of 2018, 2019, and 2020, in the event Mr. Burton’s satisfies the retirement conditions throughout the performance period, in each case, prior to the vesting date, the restricted shares will remain outstanding and subject to the performance vesting conditions, provided that the number of earned restricted shares, if any, will be subject to the Adjusted Measurement. In addition, pursuant to the 2022 Burton Employment Agreement, if his employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by him for good reason, the restricted share awards shall remain outstanding through the applicable performance period and shall be eligible to vest in accordance with the applicable performance criteria. If Mr. Burton’s employment terminates for any other reason on or prior to the vesting date, the unvested restricted shares will be automatically repurchased by the Company for par value and cancelled.

Under the terms of the restricted share awards granted to each of our NEOs (other than Mr. Burton for awards granted prior to 2021), the awards will generally automatically vest upon the executive’s termination of employment due to death or disability or upon the occurrence of a change in control (for the 2022 and 2023 awards, service based restricted share awards vest while performance based restricted share awards continue to vest proportionally). If the executive’s employment terminates for any other reason, the unvested restricted shares will be automatically repurchased by the Company for par value and cancelled. In addition, in the case of Mr. Burton, pursuant to the 2022 Burton Employment Agreement, any outstanding unvested time-based restricted share awards, if any, shall fully vest and any outstanding performance-based restricted share awards, if any, shall remain outstanding through the applicable performance period and shall be eligible to vest in accordance with the applicable performance criteria.

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of Mr. Burton, our former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”, or as sometimes referred to below in this section, our Principal Executive Officer or “PEO”).

For 2023, our last completed fiscal year:

    a) the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees (other than our CEO) was $163,310; and

    b) the total annualized compensation of our CEO was $5,910,846.

Based on this information, for 2023, the ratio of the total annualized compensation of Mr. Burton, our CEO, to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees was 36.2 to 1.0.

If the calculation was performed excluding Mr. Burton’s one-time cash severance payments as part of his departure, then the ratio would be 19.4 to 1.0. This alternative pay ratio is not a substitute for the pay ratio calculated in accordance with the SEC disclosure rules, but we believe it is helpful in evaluating the ratio of Mr. Burton’s annual 2023 total compensation to the median employee compensation in light of the one-time severance payments provided to Mr. Burton.

To identify the median employee in 2023, we took the following steps:

i.We selected December 31, 2023, which we refer to as the determination date, which is within the last three months of 2023, as the date upon which we would identify the “median employee.”

ii.We identified the median employee by examining the annual total compensation for 2023, calculated in accordance with the requirements of Item 402(c)(2)(x) of Regulation S-K, of each of our employees employed as of December 31, 2023. For those employees who joined the Company during 2023 the total compensation was annualized as if they had been employed for the entire year. We calculated the total compensation for each employee in the same manner as the “Total Compensation” shown for our NEOs in the “Summary Compensation Table”, including converting currencies of our employees in Ireland into United States dollars based on an average conversion rate for 2023 which was $1.08, where applicable and including converting currencies of our employees in the United Kingdom into United States dollars based on an average conversion rate for 2023 which was $1.25, where applicable. We determined the compensation of our median employee by ranking the annual total compensation of all employees, except for our CEO, and selecting the median employee based on their total compensation.

Pay Versus Performance

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of executive compensation actually paid and certain financial performance of our company. The following table shows the total compensation for our NEOs for the past four fiscal years as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, or the compensation actually paid or CAP, to our PEO, and, on an average basis, our non-PEO NEOs (in each case, as determined under SEC rules), our total shareholder return, or TSR, the TSR of the S&P 500 Property & Casualty Insurance Index, or our Peer Group TSR, over the same period, our net income, and our company-selected measure for 2023, Growth in Fully Diluted Book Value Per Share.

This section should be read in conjunction with the CD&A, which includes additional discussion of our objectives of executive compensation and benefits program and how they are aligned with the company’s financial and operational performance. The Compensation Committee does not use CAP as a basis for making compensation decisions, nor do we use the performance measure of Net Income, as defined by the SEC for purposes of the pay vs performance table above, to measure performance for compensation.

2023 Performance Metrics

We consider the performance measures listed in the table below as the most important performance measures used by us to link NEO compensation for 2023 to Company performance. Each of these measures is described in more detail below.

Most Important Performance Measures

• Growth in Fully Diluted Book Value Per Share

• Underwriting Combined Ratio

• Adjusted Operating Profit

Growth in Fully Diluted Book Value Per Share

Our primary financial goal is to increase fully diluted book value per share over the long term. We use growth in fully diluted book value per share as one of the performance conditions in our long-term incentive compensation. 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.

Fully diluted book value per share represents basic book value per share combined with any dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options and all outstanding RSUs. Fully diluted book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to Annex 1 for definitions of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

60 2024 PROXY STATEMENT

GREENLIGHT RE

Underwriting Combined Ratio

We evaluate our underwriting performance based on the underwriting combined ratio. We use achievement of underwriting combined ratio as one of the performance conditions in our long-term incentive compensation. Underwriting combined ratio is calculated as 1 minus (the net underwriting income (loss) divided by the net earned premium). We do not use premiums written as a measure of performance. We use net underwriting income (loss) as a performance measure 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. We 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.

We calculate net underwriting income (loss) as net premiums earned, plus other income relating to reinsurance and deposit-accounted contracts, less deposit interest expense, less net loss and loss adjustment expenses, acquisition costs, and underwriting expenses. Net underwriting income (loss) is a non-GAAP measure. Please refer to Annex 1 for definitions of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Operating Profit

We also measure our performance based on adjusted operating profit, or AOP, as this measure reflects management’s contribution to long term profitability and operational efficiency. AOP for purposes of 2023 compensation is calculated as the sum of (i) the underwriting income and (ii) the strategic investments income (net of tax), less (iii) corporate innovations-related expense, as a percentage of book value. We use AOP as a performance measure in our short-term incentive compensation. AOP is a non-GAAP performance measure. Please refer to Annex 1 for definitions of non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Related-Party Transaction Policy and Audit Committee Charter

We have established a written related-party transaction policy which provides procedures for the review of transactions in excess of $120,000 in any year between us and any covered person having a direct or indirect material interest, subject to certain exceptions. Covered persons include any director, executive officer, director nominee, 5% shareholder or any immediate family members of the foregoing. All relevant factors with respect to a proposed related-party transaction are considered, and such a transaction will only be approved if it is in our and our shareholders’ best interests or, if an alternate standard of review is imposed by applicable laws, statutes, governing documents or listing standards, if such alternate standard of review is satisfied. Any such related-party transactions shall require advance approval by a majority of our independent directors or a majority of the members of a committee constituted solely of our independent directors. In addition, our Audit Committee charter provides that the Audit Committee will review and approve all related-party transactions.

Limited Partnership Agreement

On September 1, 2018, the Company entered into a Limited Partnership Agreement, or the LPA, with Solasglas Investments, LP, which we refer to as SILP, with DME Advisors II, LLC, which we refer to as DME II, as General Partner. DME II and DME Advisors, LP, which we refer to as DME Advisors, are related parties and are controlled by David Einhorn, the Chair of the Board, the President and Portfolio Manager of Greenlight Capital, Inc., and the beneficial owner of certain number of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company transferred rights to $366.3 million of net investments from Greenlight Re and GRIL’s joint venture, or the Joint Venture, investment accounts to SILP in exchange for limited partnership interests of the same amount, resulting in no net gain or loss.

DME II receives a performance allocation equal to (with capitalized terms having the meaning provided under the LPA) (a) 10% of the portion of the Positive Performance Change for each limited partner’s capital account that is less than or equal to the positive balance in such limited partner’s Carryforward Account, plus (b) 20% of the portion of the Positive Performance Change for each limited partner’s capital account that exceeds the positive balance in such limited partner’s Carryforward Account. The Carryforward Account for Greenlight Re and GRIL include the amount of losses that were to be recouped under the Joint Venture as well as any loss generated on the assets invested in SILP, subject to adjustments for redemptions. The loss carry forward provision contained in the LPA allows DME II to earn reduced performance allocation of 10% of profits in any year subsequent to any years in which SILP has incurred a loss, until all losses are recouped and an additional amount equal to 150% of the loss is earned. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company’s investment income from SILP included performance allocation to DME II of $3.2 million (2022: $6.1 million).

On September 1, 2018, SILP entered into an investment advisory agreement, or the IAA, with DME Advisors which entitles DME Advisors to a monthly management fee equal to 0.125% (1.5% on an annual basis) of each limited partner’s Investment Portfolio, as provided in the LPA. The IAA had an initial term ending on August 31, 2023 subject to automatic extension for successive three-year terms which renewal did occur. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company’s investment income from SILP included management fees paid by SILP to DME Advisors of $4.8 million (2022: $3.6 million).

On February 26, 2019, effective as of September 1, 2018, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the LPA. The amendment was intended to revise the mechanics for calculating the Carryforward Account and Performance Allocation (as defined in the LPA) to take into account withdrawals from and subsequent recontributions of capital to SILP, consistent with the treatment under the Joint Venture.

On August 5, 2020, in connection with the investments by Greenlight Re and GRIL in SILP, pursuant to the LPA, the Company entered into an amended and restated letter agreement, or the Letter Agreement, with DME Advisors and DME II whereby from July 1, 2020 until such date on which neither Greenlight Re nor GRIL is a limited partner in the Partnership, or as further modified by agreement of the parties: (a) the Deployed GLRE Investment Portfolio (as defined in the Letter Agreement) shall not exceed an amount equal to 50% of the GLRE Surplus (as defined in the Letter Agreement); (b) in the event that the Deployed GLRE Investment Portfolio exceeds 50% of the GLRE Surplus, which we refer to as Excess Assets, DME II and the DME Advisors will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to promptly liquidate positions in Excess Assets to Non-Risk Assets (as defined in the Letter Agreement) as may be necessary to comply with the preceding paragraph (a); and (c) until June 30, 2021, Non-Risk Assets were not subject to any Management Fee (as defined in the LPA) or Performance Allocation (as defined in the LPA).

On January 7, 2021, the Company, Greenlight Re, GRIL and DME II entered into the Second Amended and Restated Exempted Limited Partnership Agreement, effective as of January 1, 2021, or the Second Restated LPA. The Second Restated LPA amended, restated, superseded and incorporated all material terms of the Letter Agreement and was intended to amend certain definitions in the LPA, including “Additional Investment Ratio,” “Greenlight Re Surplus” and the “GRIL Surplus.” In addition, the Second Restated LPA amended Section 4.1(c) to incorporate the requirement to limit the size of any Partner’s Investment Portfolio (as defined in the Second Restated LPA) and amended each of Schedule 4.1(c)-1 (the Greenlight Re Guidelines) and Schedule 4.1(c)-2 (the GRIL Guidelines) to reflect the amended investment guidelines adopted by the board of directors of Greenlight Re and GRIL, respectively, effective as of January 1, 2021. Effective January 1, 2023, the parties increased the maximum Investment Portfolio, as defined in the Second Amended and Restated LPA, to 60% from 50% of GLRE Surplus (as that term is also defined in the Second Amended and Restated LPA).

Pursuant to the Second Restated LPA and the IAA, the Company has agreed to indemnify DME II and DME Advisors for any expense, loss, liability or damage arising out of any claim asserted or threatened in connection with DME Advisors serving as SILP’s investment advisor. The Company will reimburse DME, DME II and DME Advisors for reasonable costs and expenses of investigating and/or defending such claims, provided such claims were not caused due to gross negligence, breach of contract or misrepresentation by DME II or DME Advisors. For the year ended December 31, 2023, there were no indemnification payments payable or paid by the Company.

In accordance with the Second Restated LPA, either of Greenlight Re or GRIL may voluntarily withdraw all or part of its Capital Account for its operating needs by giving DME II at least 3 business days notice. In addition, either of Greenlight Re or GRIL may withdraw as a partner and fully withdraw all of its Capital Account from SILP on 3 business days notice if the Board of Greenlight Re or GRIL, as applicable, declares that a cause for withdrawal exists as per the LPA.

Service Agreement

The Company has entered into a service agreement with DME Advisors, which was amended in August 2007 and October 2007, pursuant to which DME Advisors provides investor relations services to the Company for compensation of $5,000 per month (plus expenses). The service agreement had an initial term of one year and continues for sequential one-year periods until terminated by either the Company or DME Advisors. Either party may terminate the service agreement for any reason with 30 days prior written notice to the other party.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred expenses of $60,000 to DME Advisors for investor relations services.

ANNEX 1 - NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In presenting our results for purposes of compensation determinations, we use certain key financial measures, some of which are not prescribed under U.S. GAAP rules and standards (“non-GAAP financial measures”). 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 key non-GAAP financial measures used in this report are:

•Fully diluted book value per share

•Net underwriting income (loss)

•Adjusted Operating Profit (AOP)

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. Fully diluted book value per share should not be viewed as substitutes for the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

Fully diluted book value per share represents basic book value per share combined with any dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options and all outstanding RSUs. Basic book value per share is calculated as follows: (a) ending shareholders' equity, divided by (b) the Ordinary shares issued and outstanding, as reported in the consolidated financial statements.

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.

For a reconciliation of diluted book value per share, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, please see page 53 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Net Underwriting Income (Loss)

One of the ways 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 (including related G&A 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 G&A 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 G&A 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.

For a reconciliation of net underwriting income (loss), for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, please see page 54 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Adjusted Operating Profit

Effective January 1, 2023, one of the ways that we measure our performance is based on adjusted operating profit, or AOP, as this measure reflects management’s contribution to long term profitability and operational efficiency. AOP is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as a substitute for the comparable U.S. GAAP measure—net income before taxes. AOP is considered a non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes items used to calculate net income before taxes under U.S. GAAP. AOP is calculated as the sum of (i) the underwriting income and (ii) the strategic investments income (net of tax), less (iii) corporate innovations-related expense, as a percentage of book value. We use AOP as a performance measure in our short-term incentive compensation.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income before taxes (GAAP) to the AOP for the year ended December 31, 2023.

	Year ended December 31, 2023
	($ in thousands)
Income before income tax	$	86,930
