Greenlight Capital Re Ltd

Greenlight Re is licensed and regulated by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority ("CIMA") to write property and casualty reinsurance business as well as long term business (e.g., life insurance, long term disability, long term care, etc.); however, to date we have not written any long term business. GRIL is licensed and regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland ("CBI") to write property and casualty reinsurance business. Currently, we manage our business on the basis of one operating segment: property and casualty reinsurance. We currently offer excess of loss and quota share products in the property and casualty market. Our underwriting operations are designed to capitalize on inefficiencies that we perceive exist in the traditional approach to underwriting.

We believe that we conduct our business differently from traditional reinsurers in multiple ways, including: we focus on offering customized reinsurance solutions to select customers at times and in markets where capacity and alternatives are limited rather than primarily pursuing and participating in broadly available traditional property and casualty opportunities;

we aim to build a reinsurance portfolio comprised principally of high frequency and low severity contracts with favorable ultimate economic results measured after all loss payments have been made rather than focusing on interim reported results when losses may be incurred but not yet reported or paid;

we generally seek to act as the lead underwriter on a majority of the contracts we underwrite in an effort to obtain greater influence in negotiating pricing, terms and conditions. We may from time to time participate in contracts that have been negotiated and priced by another party. For example, on some longer duration casualty business that is comprised of larger, syndicated reinsurance placements, we may follow the market on these transactions;

we maintain a small group of experienced generalist underwriters that are capable of underwriting many lines of property and casualty business rather than a large staff of underwriters, each with an individual, specific focus on certain lines of business;

we implement a "cradle to grave" service philosophy where the same deal team underwrites and services each reinsurance contract rather than separating underwriting and servicing duties among many employees; and

we compensate our management with a cash bonus structure largely dependent on our underwriting results over a multi-year period rather than on premium volume or preliminary underwriting results in any given financial accounting period.

Our investment strategy, like our reinsurance strategy, is designed to maximize returns over the long term while minimizing the risk of capital loss. Unlike the investment strategies of many of our traditional competitors, which invest primarily in fixed-income securities either directly or through fixed-fee arrangements with one or more investment managers, our investment strategy is to invest in long and short positions primarily in publicly-traded equity and corporate debt instruments exclusively through a joint venture with DME Advisors LLC ("DME"). Our investment advisor, DME Advisors, is compensated with a fixed annual fee based on assets under management and the joint venture participant, DME, is compensated on the positive performance of our portfolio, subject to a loss carry forward. DME Advisors, which makes investments on our behalf, is a value-oriented investment advisor that analyzes companies available financial data, business strategies and prospects in an effort to identify undervalued and overvalued securities. DME Advisors and DME are both controlled by David Einhorn, the Chairman of our Board of Directors and the President of Greenlight Capital, Inc. DME Advisors has the contractual right to manage substantially all of our investable assets until December 31, 2016, and is required to follow our investment guidelines and to act in a manner that is fair and equitable in allocating investment opportunities to us. However, DME Advisors is not otherwise restricted with respect to the nature or timing of making investments for our account.

We measure our success by long-term growth in book value per share, which we believe is the most comprehensive gauge of the performance of our business. Accordingly, our incentive compensation plans are designed to align employee and shareholder interests. Compensation under our cash bonus plan is largely dependent on the ultimate underwriting returns of our business measured over a multi-year period, rather than premium targets or estimated underwriting profitability for the year in which we initially underwrote the business.

We characterize the reinsurance risks we assume as frequency or severity and aim to balance the risks and opportunities of our underwriting activities by creating a diversified portfolio of both types of businesses, although over the long term we generally have a preference for frequency business.

Frequency business is characterized as contracts containing a potentially large number of smaller losses emanating from multiple events. Clients generally buy this protection to increase their own underwriting capacity and typically select a reinsurer based upon the reinsurers financial strength, service and expertise. We expect the results of frequency business to be less volatile than those of severity business from period to period due to its greater predictability. We also expect that over time the profit margins and return on equity of our frequency business will be lower than those of our severity business.

Severity business is typically characterized as contracts with the potential for significant losses emanating from one event or multiple events. Clients generally buy this protection to reduce volatility from their balance sheets, and accordingly, we expect the results of severity business to be volatile from period to period. However, over the long term, we also expect that our severity business will generate higher profit margins and return on equity than our frequency business.

While we intend to continue to add to, and diversify, our portfolio, our allocation of risk will vary based on our perception of the opportunities available in each line of business. Moreover, our focus on certain lines will fluctuate based upon market conditions and we may only offer or underwrite a limited number of lines in any given period. We intend to continue to: target markets where capacity and alternatives are underserved or constrained;

seek clients with appropriate expertise in their line of business;

employ strict underwriting discipline;

select reinsurance opportunities with favorable returns on capital over the life of the contract; and

strengthen and expand relationships with existing clients.
