 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
 Board Independence
 Ms. Blanchard and Messrs. Lyons, Neff, Nigro and Thomas are "independent directors" under the rules of the NASDAQ Capital Market ("NASDAQ") and the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). The NASDAQ and the NYSE rules require that a majority of the Board of Directors be independent, and we are in compliance with these requirements. The independent directors held separate executive sessions without senior management on at least four occasions in 2024, and neither the chairman, chief executive officer, president nor any member of management, at any level, attended any of the executive sessions of the independent directors.
 Board Meetings and Committees; Attendance at Annual General Meeting
 The Board of Directors held 16 meetings in 2024. Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings held in 2024 of the Board and any committee on which he or she served. Each director attended the 2024 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
 Board Committees
 Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each comprised entirely of independent directors within the meaning of the rules of the NASDAQ and the NYSE. In March 2022, the Board of Directors unanimously appointed Mr. Nigro as the chair of the Audit Committee, Mr. Thomas as the chair of the Compensation Committee, and Ms. Blanchard as the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
 Audit Committee
 We have a separately designated standing Audit Committee. The Audit Committee assists our Board of Directors in monitoring the integrity of our financial statements, the independent auditor's qualifications and independence, performance of our independent auditors and our internal audit function, the establishment and maintenance of proper internal accounting controls and procedures, the treatment of employees' concerns regarding accounting and auditing matters as reported to our whistleblower hotline, and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Audit Committee's responsibilities also include appointing (subject to common shareholder ratification), reviewing, determining funding for and overseeing our independent auditors and their services. Further, the Audit Committee, to the extent it deems necessary or appropriate, among its several other responsibilities, shall:
 • review and approve all related party transactions, as well as any subsequent modifications thereto, for actual or potential conflict of interest situations on an ongoing basis;
 • review and discuss with appropriate members of our management and the independent auditors our audited financial statements, related accounting and auditing principles, practices and disclosures;
 • review and discuss our audited annual and unaudited quarterly financial statements prior to the filing of such statements;
 • establish procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints we receive regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding our financial statements or accounting policies;
 • review reports from the independent auditors on all critical accounting policies and practices to be used for our financial statements and discuss with the independent auditor the critical accounting policies and practices used in the financial statements;
 • assist the Enterprise Risk Management Committee in its responsibility for oversight of risk management, including cybersecurity;
 • obtain reports from our management and internal auditors that we and our subsidiaries are in compliance with the applicable legal requirements and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and advise our Board of Directors about these matters; and
 • monitor the adequacy of our operating and internal controls as reported by management and the independent or internal auditors.
 We have adopted a policy that requires that all related party transactions be approved by our Audit Committee. At each quarterly meeting, each member of the Board is requested to disclose if any related party relationship may have commenced, ceased or changed since the prior meeting. In response to an annual questionnaire, we require directors, director nominees and executive officers to submit a description of any current or proposed related party transaction and provides updates at least quarterly during the year. In addition, we will provide the Audit Committee any similar available information with respect to any known transactions with beneficial owners of 5% or more of our voting securities. If management becomes aware of any potential transactions, management presents such transactions for approval by the Audit Committee. In the event management becomes aware of any transaction

 that was not approved under the policy, management will present the transaction to the Audit Committee for its action as soon as reasonably practicable, which may include termination, amendment or ratification of the transaction. The Audit Committee will approve only those transactions that are in, or are not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and our shareholders, as is determined in good faith in accordance with its business judgment. Each of these related party transactions was approved by our Audit Committee.
 Mr. Nigro is the chair of our Audit Committee and the other members are Ms. Blanchard and Messrs. Lyons and Neff. All the members of the Audit Committee are financially literate as well as independent both under SEC rules and as that term is defined in the listing standards of each of the NASDAQ and the NYSE. The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Neff and Nigro are "audit committee financial experts."

 During 2024, the Compensation Committee met nine times.
 Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
 The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's responsibilities with respect to assisting our Board of Directors include, among other responsibilities:
 establishing the criteria for membership on our Board of Directors and certain subsidiaries;
 reviewing periodically the structure, size and composition of our Board of Directors (and committees thereof) and making recommendations to the Board as to any necessary adjustments;
 identifying individuals qualified to become directors for recommendation to our Board of Directors;
 identifying and recommending for appointment to our Board of Directors (and committees thereof), directors qualified to fill vacancies on any committee of our Board of Directors;
 having sole authority to select, retain and terminate any consultant or search firm to identify director candidates and having sole authority to approve the consultant or search firm's fees and other retention terms;
 considering matters of corporate governance, developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, as well as recommending to the Board any modifications thereto, including environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters;
 considering questions of actual or possible conflicts of interest, including related party transactions, of members of our Board of Directors and of senior executives of our Company;
 developing and recommending to our Board of Directors for its approval an annual Board and committee self-evaluation process to determine the effectiveness of their functioning; and
 exercising oversight of the evaluation of the Board, its committees and management.
 Ms. Blanchard is the chair of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the other members are Messrs. Lyons and Thomas. All the members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent both under SEC rules and as that term is defined in the listing standards of the NASDAQ and the NYSE.
 In carrying out its function to nominate candidates for election to our Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the mix of skills, experience, character, commitment, and diversity of background, all in the context of the requirements of our Board of Directors at that point in time. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee interprets diversity to include viewpoints, background, expertise, industry knowledge and geography, as well as more traditional characteristics of diversity, such as race and gender. We believe that the commitment of the Board and the Committee to greater diversity in its governing committees is demonstrated by the current structure of the Board and the varied skills sets of our directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes that each candidate should be an individual who has demonstrated integrity and ethics in such candidate's personal and professional life, has an understanding of elements relevant to the success of a publicly-traded company and has established a record of professional accomplishment in such candidate's chosen field. Each candidate should be prepared to participate fully in Board of Directors activities, including attendance at, and active participation in, meetings of the Board of Directors, and not have other personal or professional commitments that would, in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's judgment, interfere with or limit such candidate's ability to do so. Each candidate should also be prepared to represent the best interests of all of our shareholders and not just one particular constituency. Additionally, in determining whether to recommend a director for re-election, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers the director's past attendance at Board of Directors and committee meetings and participation in and contributions to the activities of our Board of Directors.
 The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers recommendations for director candidates submitted by shareholders. In order for an individual recommended by a shareholder to be eligible for election as a director and considered by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for the Annual General Meeting, the Corporate Secretary must receive the shareholder's recommendation pursuant to the requirements of our bye-laws and this Proxy.
 A shareholder recommending an individual for election as a director must provide the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with the candidate's name, age, principal occupation or employment, background and relationship with the proposing shareholder, share ownership, a brief statement outlining the reasons the candidate would be an effective director and information relevant to the considerations described above as well as a statement regarding the individual's willingness to serve as a director. Shareholders should send the required information to

 the Corporate Secretary, 48 Par-la-Ville Road, Suite 1141, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda, Bermuda. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may require further information. Such recommendations must be sent via registered, certified or express mail (or other means that allow the shareholder to determine when the recommendation was received by us). The Corporate Secretary will send any shareholder recommendations to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for consideration at a future committee meeting. Individuals recommended by shareholders in accordance with these procedures will receive the same consideration as other individuals evaluated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
 The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter is currently available on our website at www.maiden.bm. Information on our website is not incorporated by reference into this report and does not otherwise form a part of this report.
 During 2024, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met five times.
 Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
 We have adopted corporate governance guidelines and a code of business conduct and ethics that apply to all of our directors, officers and employees. These documents will be made available in print, free of charge, to any shareholder requesting a copy in writing to the Corporate Secretary, Maiden Holdings, Ltd., 48 Par-la-Ville Road, Suite 1141, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda Bermuda. Copies of our Corporate Governance Guidelines and our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics are available on our website at www.maiden.bm. Information on our website is not incorporated by reference into this report and does not otherwise form part of this report.
 Insider Trading Policies and Procedures
 We have adopted insider trading policies and procedures applicable to our directors, officers, employees and other covered persons, and have implemented processes for the Company, that we believe are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the NASDAQ and NYSE listing standards. Our Insider Trading Policy and Outside Investment Policy has been filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
 Communications with the Board of Directors and Audit Committee
 Shareholders and other interested parties may communicate with members of the Board of Directors (either individually or as a body) by addressing the correspondence to that individual or body to the Board of Directors, c/o Corporate Secretary, Maiden Holdings, Ltd., 48 Par-la-Ville Road, Suite 1141, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda or by calling (441) 298-4900.
 Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
 Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires officers, directors and persons who own more than ten (10) percent of a class of equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with both the SEC and the principal exchange upon which such securities are traded or quoted. Officers, directors and persons holding greater than ten (10) percent of the outstanding shares of a class of Section 12-registered equity securities ("Reporting Persons") are also required to furnish copies of any such reports filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with the Company. Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024 all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its Reporting Persons were complied with in a timely manner.
 Risk Management Oversight
 The Board of Directors has the ultimate oversight responsibility for the risk management function of the Company. The Company has implemented an enterprise-wide approach to risk management and has established an Enterprise Risk Management Committee (the "ERMC") which consists of members of the Company's senior management. The ERMC oversees the Company's framework for the identification, assessment, measurement, and reporting of and management of exposure to the Company's risk on an enterprise-wide basis. Our Audit Committee receives at least quarterly enterprise risk management overview from executive management, and detailed reports from our Chief Risk Officer, which includes updates on areas including insurance risk, operational/strategic risk, financial risk (including investment and liquidity risks), legal/compliance risk, and emerging risks.
 The Audit Committee assists the ERMC in its responsibility for oversight of the integrity and effectiveness of our risk management framework. In particular, the Audit Committee focuses on major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such risks and discusses with our independent auditor the policies governing the process by which senior management and the various units of the Company assess and manage our financial risk exposures and various risks described above. For more information on our ERM framework and risk profile, refer to "Item. 1 Business - Risk Management" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 The Company has separated the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. This separation enhances Board administration and communication, allows for consistent Board leadership and allows the Chief Executive Officer to focus on managing the Company.
 Risks Related to Compensation Practices and Policies
 Our Compensation Committee has reviewed our material compensation policies and practices applicable to our employees, including our named executive officers, and concluded that these policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. Our Compensation Committee assessed the Company's compensation and benefits programs to determine if the programs' provisions and operations create undesired or unintentional risk of a material nature. We do not have any programs where the ability of a participant may directly affect variability of payout. Rather, we support the use of base salary, performance-based compensation, and retirement plans that are generally uniform in design and operation throughout the Company and with all levels of employees.
 Based on the foregoing, we believe that our compensation policies and practices do not create inappropriate or unintended significant risk to the Company as a whole. We also believe that our incentive compensation arrangements provide incentives that do not encourage risk-taking beyond our Company's ability to effectively identify and manage significant risks, are compatible with our effective internal controls and our risk management practices and are supported by the oversight and administration of the Compensation Committee with regard to executive compensation programs.

 Represents the aggregate grant date fair market value of non-performance-based restricted share awards granted to the named executive officer as determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 718, "Compensation Stock Discussion," using the assumptions described in Note 14 to the Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 10, 2025. At the discretion of the Compensation Committee on March 14, 2024, Mr. Haveron was granted 683,453 restricted shares that will vest 50% on the first anniversary of the grant, and 50% on the second anniversary of the grant.

Because the achievement of the performance goals associated with the 2024 performance-based equity grants was not viewed as probable at the time of grant, there is no grant date fair value associated with these awards. Please see the "Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2024" for further information regarding the March 7, 2024 performance-based equity grants.

 1.Mr. Haveron served as the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer since May 2023 and as Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer from January to April 2023 and all of 2022. Mr. Metz served as the Executive Vice Chairman and Group President since May 2023 and as President and Co-Chief Executive Officer from January to April 2023 and all of 2022. Mr. Jarman was an NEO for the entirety of 2024, 2023 and 2022. For clarity, Mr. Metz was not a PEO for any portion of 2024.
 2.Amounts reported in this column represent (i) the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable fiscal year in the case of Messrs. Haveron and (for 2022 and 2023) Metz and (ii) the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable fiscal year for the Company's NEO(s) reported for the applicable year other than the PEO(s) for such years.
 3.To calculate compensation actually paid, adjustments were made to the amounts reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year. A reconciliation of the adjustments for Messrs. Haveron and Metz and for the other NEO Mr. Jarman (and for 2024, Mr. Metz) is set forth in the table immediately following these footnotes.
 4.Pursuant to rules of the SEC, the illustration assumes $100 was invested on December 31, 2021 in our Common Shares. Historic common share price performance is not necessarily indicative of future common share price performance.
 5.We have maintained a separate column for Mr. Metz for 2024 since he was a PEO for 2022 and part of 2023 and we thought it would be informative for shareholders to be able to track compensation data vertically across the years. However, if we were to show the average compensation for our two non-PEO NEOs in 2024, Mr. Metz and Mr. Jarman, the average amount of total compensation reported for our non-PEO NEOs in column (d) would be $1,089,321 while the average compensation actually paid for our non-PEO NEOs in column (e) would be $1,073,443.

 To calculate the amounts reported in the "Compensation Actually Paid" columns in the table above, the following amounts were deducted from and added to (as applicable) our NEOs total compensation as reported in the Summary Compensation Table ("SCT") for our named executive officers as of the applicable year:

 Relationship Between Pay and Performance
 We believe the "Compensation Actually Paid" in each of the years reported above and over the three-year cumulative period are reflective of the Compensation Committee's emphasis on "pay-for-performance." More specifically, our Compensation Committee believes that growth in our book value per common share and total common shareholder return are the biggest determinants of performance and our Compensation Committee's evaluation of performance is heavily influenced by that objective. Additional focus on advancing specific elements of our revised strategy, including our current asset and capital management strategies and previously with development of our legacy platform, are all considered by our Compensation Committee in determining compensation awarded to our PEO and other NEOs.

 While net income is not a pre-established goal under our executive compensation program, our "Compensation Actually Paid" for each of our PEOs declined when comparing 2022 to 2023, but increased for our PEO when comparing 2023 to 2024. The decline in "Compensation Actually Paid" was aligned with the change in net loss and other influences on "Compensation Actually Paid", such as share price and book value. We believe compensation is aligned with Total Shareholder Return given the considerable weight of equity awarded to our NEOs.
 For the period 2022 to 2023, our combined PEOs' "Compensation Actually Paid" declined 24% while our non-PEO NEO's "Compensation Actually Paid" increased 8% as compared to a decline in net loss of 35.8% and increase in TSR of 8.5% when comparing 2022 to 2023. The decline in "Compensation Actually Paid" was aligned with the decline in net loss and other influences on "Compensation Actually Paid", such as share price and book value.
 For the period 2023 to 2024, our PEO's "Compensation Actually Paid" increased 18% while our two non-PEO NEOs' "Compensation Actually Paid" declined 10% as compared to higher net loss of 421% and a decline in TSR of 26% when comparing 2023 to 2024. Despite the decrease in GAAP book value and higher net loss in 2024 over 2023, the increase in the PEO's "Compensation Actually Paid" reflects the Committee's emphasis on pivoting the Company's strategy by awarding higher performance-based, variable equity while not paying any cash incentive compensation in 2024. The decrease in our two non-PEO NEOs' "Compensation Actually Paid" reflects the decrease in GAAP book value and higher net loss in 2024 over 2023, including lower cash incentive compensation.
 Please see the charts below for graphic explanation of the relationship between executive pay and company performance for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022:

 DIRECTOR COMPENSATION FOR 2024
 In 2024, we paid an annual retainer of $100,000 to each non-employee director of the Company. We also reimbursed our directors for reasonable expenses they incur in attending meetings of the Board of Directors or any of its committees. Directors may also be eligible in the future for awards under the Plan. Employee directors received no compensation for service on the Board of Directors or any board committee. For his service as Lead Independent Director, Mr. Nigro received an additional annual cash retainer of $20,000.
 Starting in fiscal year 2019, the Company changed its practice of awarding a fixed number of restricted share units to the non-employee directors and currently grants such directors $65,000 worth of compensation in the form of either restricted shares, share options or cash. For 2024, the compensation was granted in the form of restricted shares issued to each director except for Mr. Neuberger as discussed below. It is the Company's intention that annually, on or around June 1, each non-employee director will receive a grant of $65,000 worth of compensation which, if non-cash compensation, will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. For his service as Lead Independent Director, Mr. Nigro will receive (in addition to the $20,000 additional annual cash retainer mentioned above) an additional $10,000 worth of compensation, on or around June 1, in the form of either restricted shares, share options or cash.
 On March 18, 2021, the Compensation Committee approved the disposition of Mr. Neuberger's restricted shares and share options in order to comply with restrictions on investments imposed in connection with his spouse's government service. His compensation continues to be paid in cash for annual retainer and board fees due to him in respect of his services to the Board.
 Mr. Zyskind has never accepted a retainer, any Board of Directors or committee fees or any options or other equity-based awards for his service as non-executive Chairman of our Board of Directors.
 The following table provides the amount of compensation paid to the non-employee directors of the Company for 2024:

 Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons
 Conflicts of interest could arise with respect to business opportunities that could be advantageous to any or all of AmTrust or its subsidiaries and the Company or our subsidiaries. In addition, potential conflicts of interest may arise should the interests of AmTrust and/or the Company diverge. From time to time, AmTrust and/or the Company may be presented with opportunities to insure, reinsure or acquire the same book of business. Because of the overlaps between our and AmTrust's shareholders, the Company and AmTrust have agreed that in such cases, the opportunities will be referred to a committee of independent directors of each company to decide whether that company wishes to pursue the opportunity. Pursuant to its charter, our independent Audit Committee must review and approve in advance or ratify any transaction or relationship of any size in which we and any related party have a direct or indirect material interest. The Audit Committee will consider all of the relevant facts and circumstances including (if applicable), but not limited to, (i) the benefits to us; (ii) the impact on a director's independence in the event the related person is a director, a director's immediate family member or an entity in which a director is a partner, shareholder or executive officer; (iii) the availability of other sources for comparable products or services; (iv) the terms of the transaction; and (v) the terms available to unrelated third parties or to employees generally. When considering these factors, the Audit Committee members will apply their business judgment based upon all relevant facts and circumstances known at that time, in accordance with their fiduciary duties to our shareholders.
