ANNEX A

Pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Indenture, dated as of August 12, 2015 (the “Base Indenture”), between Global Indemnity Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company, as successor to Global Indemnity plc (the “Company”), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Original Trustee”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated November 7, 2016 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), between the Company, Global Indemnity plc and the Trustee, and as further supplemented and amended by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 23, 2017 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), the terms of a series of securities to be issued pursuant to the Indenture are as follows:

1. Designation. The designation of the securities is “7.875% Subordinated Notes due 2047” (the “Subordinated Notes”).

2. Initial Aggregate Principal Amount. Except for Subordinated Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Subordinated Notes pursuant to the Indenture, subject to Section 20 hereof, the Subordinated Notes shall be limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $120,000,000 (or up to $138,000,000 if the over-allotment option described in the Prospectus is exercised).

3. Currency Denomination. The Subordinated Notes shall be denominated in U.S. dollars.

4. Maturity. The date on which the principal of the Subordinated Notes is payable is April 15, 2047 (the “Maturity Date”).

5. Rate of Interest; Interest Payment Date; Regular Record Dates. Each Subordinated Note shall bear interest from March 23, 2017 at 7.875% per annum to, but excluding, the Maturity Date or earlier acceleration or redemption. Such interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on July 15, 2017, to the persons in whose names the Subordinated Notes are registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding January 1, April 1, July 1 or October 1, respectively. Interest on the Subordinated Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from March 23, 2017. Interest on the Subordinated Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which principal, premium, if any, or interest is payable on the Subordinated Notes is not a Business Day, then payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay).

6. Place of Payment. Principal of and interest on the Subordinated Notes shall be payable, and the transfer of the Subordinated Notes shall be registrable, at the office or agency of the Company to be maintained for such purpose in Minneapolis, Minnesota, except that, at the option of the Company, interest may be paid by mailing a check to the address of the person entitled thereto as it

A-1

appears on the Subordinated Notes register; provided, however, that while any Subordinated Notes are represented by a Global Security, payment of principal of or interest on the Subordinated Notes may be made by wire transfer to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.

7. Optional Redemption. The Subordinated Notes may be redeemed, at the Company’s option, in $25 increments in whole or in part on April 15, 2022, or on any Interest Payment Date thereafter, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Subordinated Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date. If the Company redeems only a portion of the Subordinated Notes on any Redemption Date, the Company may subsequently redeem additional Subordinated Notes. If the Company redeems less than all the Subordinated Notes at any time, the Subordinated Notes to be redeemed will be selected in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary and which may provide for the selection or redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Subordinated Note so long as the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Subordinated Note is in an authorized denomination. The notices of redemption will be sent at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the applicable Redemption Date to each Holder of Subordinated Notes being redeemed or transmitted otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary. If any Subordinated Note is to be redeemed in part only, any notice of redemption that relates to that Subordinated Note will state the portion of the principal amount to be redeemed. Notice of redemption having been given, any Subordinated Notes to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price and from and after such date (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Subordinated Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Subordinated Notes for redemption, such Subordinated Notes shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price. If any Subordinated Notes called for redemption are not paid upon surrender for redemption, the principal thereof shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed in the Subordinated Notes.

8. Mandatory Redemption; Sinking Fund. The Subordinated Notes are not mandatorily redeemable and are not entitled to the benefit of a sinking fund or any analogous provisions.

9. Denominations. The Subordinated Notes shall be issued initially in minimum denominations of $25 and shall be issued in integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof.

10. Payment Currency. Principal and interest on the Subordinated Notes shall be payable in U.S. dollars.

11. Global Securities. The Subordinated Notes shall be issuable as Global Securities.

12. Additional Amounts.

(a) All amounts payable (whether in respect of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of the Subordinated Notes will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, levies, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of any Taxing Jurisdiction unless the withholding or deduction of such taxes, duties, levies, assessments or governmental charges is required by law. “Taxing Jurisdiction” means the Cayman Islands or any political subdivision thereof, or any authority or agency therein having the power to tax, or any other jurisdiction from or through which payment on the Subordinated Notes is made or in which the Company or any payor of a payment on the Subordinated Notes is organized or generally is or becomes subject to taxation.

A-2

(b) If such withholding or deduction is required, the Company will pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts on the Subordinated Notes as may be necessary in order that the net amounts receivable by a holder of the Subordinated Notes after such withholding or deduction (including any withholding or deduction from such additional amounts) shall equal the respective amounts that would have been receivable by such holder of the Subordinated Notes had no such withholding or deduction been required (“Additional Amounts”), except that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable on such Subordinated Notes in relation to any payment (including a payment made in connection with a redemption) in respect of such Subordinated Notes:

(1)

to, or to a third party on behalf of, a Person who would be able to avoid such withholding or deduction by complying with applicable statutory requirements or by making a declaration of non-residence or similar claim for exemption (including a claim under an applicable double taxation treaty) but, in either case, fails to do so, or is liable for such taxes, duties, levies, assessments or governmental charges in respect of the Subordinated Notes by reason of such Person (or such third party) having some connection with (including, without limitation, being a citizen of, being incorporated or engaged in a trade or business in, or having a residence or principal place of business or other presence in) the Taxing Jurisdiction, other than (i) the mere holding of the Subordinated Notes, (ii) the receipt of principal, interest or other amount in respect of the Subordinated Notes or (iii) the mere enforcement of rights with respect to the Subordinated Notes;

(2)

presented for payment more than 30 days after the relevant date (as defined below), except to the extent that the relevant Holder would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment on or before the expiration of such period of 30 days;

(3)

to a fiduciary, a partnership or a Person who is not the beneficial owner of the Subordinated Notes, if and to the extent that, as a result of an applicable tax treaty, no Additional Amounts would have been payable had the beneficiary, partner or beneficial owner owned the Subordinated Notes directly;

(4)

on account of any inheritance, gift, estate, personal property, stamp, sales or transfer or similar taxes, duties, levies, assessments or similar governmental charges;

(5)

on account of any taxes, duties, levies, assessments or governmental charges that are payable otherwise than by withholding from payments in respect of the Subordinated Notes;

(6)

any taxes imposed on, or withheld or deducted from, a payment to an individual that are required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC, European Council Directive 2014/48/EU or any other directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of November 26 and 27, 2000 on the taxation of savings income, or any law implementing or complying with or introduced in order to conform to such Directive or other directive;

A-3

(7)

any taxes that are withheld or deducted pursuant to sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, any current or future regulations thereunder, official interpretations thereof, or agreements (including any intergovernmental agreement or any laws, rules or practices implementing such intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith; or

(8)

any combination of clauses (1) through (7) above.

The “relevant date” means, in respect of any payment, the date on which such payment first becomes due and payable, but if the full amount of the moneys payable has not been received by the trustee on or prior to such due date, it means the first date on which, the full amount of such moneys having been so received and being available for payment to Holders of the Subordinated Notes, notice to that effect shall have been duly given to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes by the Company.

13. Registrar; Paying Agent; Depositary. The Trustee shall initially serve as the Registrar and the Paying Agent for the Subordinated Notes. The Depository Trust Company shall initially serve as the Depositary for the Global Security representing the Subordinated Notes.

14. Events of Default; Defaults and Remedies.

(a) Sections 5.01, 5.02 and 5.03 of the Indenture shall not apply to the Subordinated Notes.

(b) An “Event of Default” with respect to the Subordinated Notes will only occur upon the occurrence of any one of the following events:

(1)

the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, examinership, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company as bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, examinership, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, examiner, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or

(2)

the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, examinership, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, examinership or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency or examinership case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization, examinership or relief under any applicable law,

A-4

or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator examiner, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due and its willingness to have a case commenced against it or to seek an order for relief under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action.

(c) If an Event of Default under the Indenture occurs, the entire principal amount of the Subordinated Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest, shall automatically become due and payable without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Subordinated Notes. The right of acceleration only applies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 14(b).

(d) Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder with respect to the Subordinated Notes, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Subordinated Notes, as their names and addresses appear in the Security Register, notice of such Event of Default or such failure to comply that is actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee. The foregoing provisions of this Section 14(d) replace the provisions of Section 6.02 of the Indenture.

(e) A “default” with respect to the Subordinated Notes will only occur upon the occurrence of any one of the following events:

(1)

default in the payment of any interest on any Subordinated Note when due and payable, and continuance thereof for a period of 30 days;

(2)

default in the payment of principal or premium, if any, on the Subordinated Notes when due, regardless of whether such payment became due because of maturity, redemption, acceleration or otherwise; or

(3)

default in the performance, or breach of, any other covenant, warranty or agreement in the indenture that applies to Subordinated Notes for 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Subordinated Notes, a written notice specifying such default or breach.

(f) If a default under Section 14(e)(1) or Section 14(e)(2) occurs, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holder of any such Subordinated Note, the whole amount then due and payable on such Subordinated Note for principal, premium, if any, and interest. If the Company fails to pay such amount immediately upon such demand, the Trustee may, among other things, institute a judicial proceeding for its collection. There will be no right of acceleration in the case of a default.

A-5

Upon any distribution of assets of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any total or partial liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshaling of assets or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or other similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property, whether voluntary or involuntary, all principal, premium, if any, and interest due or to become due to all Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be paid in full in cash, or such payment duly provided for to the satisfaction of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution of any kind or character is made on account of any principal of, interest on or other amounts owing in respect of the Subordinated Notes, or for the acquisition of any of the Subordinated Notes for cash, property or otherwise.

(2)

In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee or the Holder of any Subordinated Note before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment or distribution, have been made known to the Trustee or such Holder, such payment or distribution shall be paid over, upon written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, to the holder of such Senior Indebtedness or his, her or its representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instrument evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, ratably as aforesaid, as calculated by the Company, for application to payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

A-6

(3)

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the Holders of the Subordinated Notes shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Subordinated Notes shall be paid in full. No payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Subordinated Notes would be entitled except for the provisions of Section 16, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions of Section 16 to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Subordinated Notes or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Subordinated Notes, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the provisions of this Section 16 are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Subordinated Notes, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Section 16 or elsewhere in the Indenture or in the Subordinated Notes is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Subordinated Notes, the obligation of the Company, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay to the Holders of the Subordinated Notes the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, on the Subordinated Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or to affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Subordinated Notes and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or in the Subordinated Notes prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Subordinated Note from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under the Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 16 of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Section 16, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 16(e), shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any distribution to the Trustee for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereof and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 16.

A-7

(c) No Payment on Subordinated Notes in Event of Default on Senior Indebtedness. If any principal, premium or interest in respect of Senior Indebtedness is not paid within any applicable grace period (including at maturity) or any other default on Senior Indebtedness occurs and the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness is accelerated in accordance with its terms, the Company may not pay the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Subordinated Notes or repurchase, redeem or otherwise retire any Subordinated Notes, unless, in each case, the default has been cured or waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or such Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full. If the Subordinated Notes are declared due and payable before the Maturity Date, the holders of Senior Indebtedness outstanding at the time the Subordinated Notes so become due and payable shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of such Senior Indebtedness before the Holders of the Subordinated Notes are entitled to receive any payment on the Subordinated Notes. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Subordinated Note prohibited by the preceding sentences, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known to the Trustee or such Holder, such payment must be paid over and delivered to the Company.

(d) Payments on Subordinated Notes Permitted. Nothing contained in the Indenture or in any of the Subordinated Notes shall (i) affect the obligation of the Company to make, or prevent the Company from making, at any time except as provided in Sections 16(b) and 16(c), payments of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Subordinated Notes or (ii) prevent the application by the Trustee of any moneys or assets deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Subordinated Notes, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate Trust Office written notice of any fact prohibiting the making of such payment from the Company or from the holder of any Senior Indebtedness or from the trustee for any such holder, together with proof satisfactory to the Trustee of such holding of Senior Indebtedness or of the authority of such trustee more than two Business Days prior to the date fixed for such payment.

(e) Authorization of Securityholders to Trustee to Effect Subordination. Each Holder of Subordinated Notes by his, her or its acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his, her or its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Section 16 and appoints the Trustee his, her or its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

(f) Notices to Trustee. The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies or assets to or by the Trustee in respect of the Subordinated Notes pursuant to the provisions of this Section 16. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 16 or any other provisions of the Indenture, neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent (other than the Company) shall be charged with knowledge of the existence of any Senior Indebtedness or of any fact which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys or assets to or by the Trustee or such Paying Agent, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall have received (in the case of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee) written notice thereof from the Company or from the holder of any Senior Indebtedness or from the trustee for any such holder, together with proof satisfactory to the Trustee of such holding of Senior Indebtedness or of the authority of such trustee and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled in all respects

A-8

conclusively to presume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys or assets may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of either the principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Subordinated Note) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such moneys or assets the notice provided for in this Section 16(f), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such moneys or assets and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it within two Business Days prior to such date. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself, herself or itself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of such holder) to establish that such a notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of any such holder. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section 16, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Section 16 and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

(g) Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness. The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Section 16 in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness and nothing in the Indenture shall be construed to deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Section 16 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 5.14 of the Indenture.

(h) Modifications of Terms of Senior Indebtedness. Any renewal or extension of the time of payment of any Senior Indebtedness or the exercise by the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any of their rights under any instrument creating or evidencing Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder, may be made or done all without notice to or assent from the Holders of the Subordinated Notes or the Trustee. No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal or other change of, or waiver, consent or other action in respect of, any liability or obligation under or in respect of, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any indenture or other instrument under which any Senior Indebtedness is outstanding or of such Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such release is in accordance with the provisions of any applicable document, shall in any way alter or affect any of the provisions of this Section 16 or of the Subordinated Notes relating to the subordination thereof.

(i) Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Section 16, the Trustee and the Holders of the Subordinated Notes shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, custodian, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of

A-9

Subordinated Notes, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 16.

(j) Satisfaction and Discharge; Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. Amounts and U.S. Government Obligations deposited in trust with the Trustee pursuant to and in accordance with Article IV of the Indenture and not, at the time of such deposit, prohibited to be deposited under Section 16(b) or Section 16(c) shall not be subject to this Section 16.

(k) Trustee not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness. With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Section 16, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into the Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness. The Trustee shall not be liable to any such holder if it shall pay over or distribute to or on behalf of Holders of Subordinated Notes or the Company, or any other Person, moneys or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Section 16 or otherwise and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into the Indenture against the Trustee.

(l) Trustee’s Rights to Payment Not Subordinated. Nothing in this Section 16 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Sections 5.04 and 6.07 of the Indenture.

17. Conversion and Exchange. The Subordinated Notes shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any other security.

18. Judgment Currency. The Company will indemnify the Trustee and each Holder of the Subordinated Notes to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against any loss incurred by the Trustee or any such Holder, as applicable, as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for any amount due under the Subordinated Notes and the judgment or order being expressed and paid in the currency (the “judgment currency”), other than U.S. dollars and as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the U.S. dollar is converted into the judgment currency for the purpose of the judgment or order and (ii) the spot rate of exchange in The City of New York at which the Trustee or such Holder, as applicable, on the date that payment is made pursuant to the judgment or order is able to purchase U.S. dollars with the amount of the judgment currency actually received by the Trustee or such Holder.

19. Certain Definitions. For all purposes of this Annex A, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Indebtedness” means any and all obligations of a Person for money borrowed which, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, would be reflected on the balance sheet of such Person as a liability on the date as of which Indebtedness is to be determined.

A-10

“Prospectus” means the base prospectus, dated November 7, 2016 together with the final prospectus supplement, dated March 16, 2017, relating to the offer and sale of the Subordinated Notes by the Company.

“Senior Indebtedness” means the principal of (and premium, if any) and unpaid interest on (1) Indebtedness of the Company, whether outstanding on the date of the indenture or thereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, for money borrowed, other than (a) any Indebtedness of the Company which when incurred, and without respect to any election under Section 1111(b) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, was without recourse to the Company, (b) any Indebtedness of the Company to any of its subsidiaries, (c) Indebtedness to any employee of the Company, (d) any liability for taxes, (e) Trade Payables and (f) any Indebtedness of the Company which is expressly subordinate in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company, and (2) renewals, extensions, modifications and refundings of any such Indebtedness. For purposes of the foregoing and the definition of “Senior Indebtedness,” the phrase “subordinated in right of payment” means debt subordination only and not lien subordination, and accordingly, (x) unsecured indebtedness shall not be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment to secured indebtedness merely by virtue of the fact that it is unsecured, and (y) junior liens, second liens and other contractual arrangements that provide for priorities among holders of the same or different issues of indebtedness with respect to any collateral or the proceeds of collateral shall not constitute subordination in right of payment.

“Trade Payables” means accounts payable or any other Indebtedness or monetary obligations to trade creditors created or assumed by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in the ordinary course of business (including guarantees thereof or instruments evidencing such liabilities).

“U.S. Bankruptcy Code” means Title 11 of the United States Code or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors.

20. Additional Issues. The Company may, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Subordinated Notes, create and issue additional notes with the same terms as the Subordinated Notes in all respects, except for the issue date, the public offering price and, under certain circumstances, the first interest payment date. Such additional notes shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Subordinated Notes.

20. Other Terms. The Subordinated Notes shall have the other terms and shall be substantially in the form set forth in the form of the Subordinated Notes attached hereto as Annex A-1. In case of any conflict between this Annex A and the Subordinated Notes, the form of the Subordinated Notes shall control.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Annex A shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Indenture.

GLOBAL INDEMNITY LIMITED

7.875% Subordinated Notes due 2047

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), designated 7.875% Subordinated Notes due 2047 (the “Notes”). The Securities are issued under an Indenture dated as of August 12, 2015 (the “Base Indenture”), by and between the Company, as successor to Global Indemnity plc, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Original Trustee,” which term includes any successor Trustee with respect to the Securities under the Base Indenture), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 7, 2016 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), by and among the Company, Global Indemnity plc, and the Original Trustee, and as further supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 23, 2017 (together with the Base Indenture and the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the Original Trustee and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee with respect to the Securities (the “Series Trustee”), to which reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Original Trustee, the Series Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

This Security shall bear interest from March 23, 2017 at 7.875% per annum to, but excluding, the Maturity Date or earlier acceleration or redemption. Such interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on July 15, 2017, to the person in whose names this Security is registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1, respectively. Interest on this Security shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from March 23, 2017. Interest on this Security shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which principal, premium, if any, or interest is payable on this Security is not a Business Day, then payment of the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay).

This Security may be redeemed, at the Company’s option, in $25 increments in whole or in part on April 15, 2022, or on any Interest Payment Date thereafter, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Security being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date. If the Company redeems only a portion of the Securities on any Redemption Date, the Company may subsequently redeem additional Securities. If the Company redeems less than all the Subordinated Notes at any time, the Subordinated Notes to be redeemed will be selected in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary and which may provide for the selection or redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security so long as the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Subordinated Note is in an authorized denomination. The notices of redemption will be sent at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the applicable Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities being redeemed or transmitted otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary. If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, any notice of redemption that relates to that Subordinated Note will state the portion of the principal amount to be redeemed. Notice of redemption having been given, any Securities to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price and from and after such date (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Securities for redemption, such Securities shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price. If Securities are called for redemption are not paid upon surrender for redemption, the principal thereof shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed in this Security.

A-1-4

This Security is not subject to the benefit of a sinking fund.

The Indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Indenture, subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the principal (or premium, if any), sinking funds or interest, if any, on all Senior Indebtedness of the Company and each Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments in respect of the principal amount of this Security to the Holder that surrenders this Security to the Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of this Security. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Any references in this Security to principal (and premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to the Security at the Maturity Date, any Interest Payment Date or otherwise, shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts, as applicable.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities to be effected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Series Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past Defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or the Securities, or for the appointment of a receiver, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Series Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Security, the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Series Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Series Trustee and offered the Series Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it, and the Series Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Securities at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on, this Security at the time, place and rate, and in the coin and currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

A-1-5

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $25 and integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Series Trustee and any agent of the Company or Series Trustee may treat the Person in whose name the Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Series Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

All defined terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. If any provision of this Security limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Indenture, such provision of this Security shall control.
