IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

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

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

3.4    During the Employment Period, it is anticipated that Executive shall also serve as a member of the Board for no additional compensation, subject to his continued election to serve on the Board by the Company’s shareholders.

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

5.    Compensation and Related Matters.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

6.    Leave.

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

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

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

7.    Benefits.

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

8.    Equity-Based Awards.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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