 The success of the Solasglas investment strategy may also be affected by general economic conditions. Unexpected market volatility and illiquidity associated with our investment in Solasglas could materially and adversely affect our investment results, financial condition, or results of operations.

Solasglas may be concentrated in a few large positions, which could result in material adverse valuation movements.

Our Board of Directors has adopted our investment guidelines, which provide that Solasglas may not commit more than, 10% of Greenlight Re Surplus (as defined in the Solasglas LPA) and 7.5% of GRIL Surplus (as defined in the Solasglas LPA) to any single investment, unless a waiver has been obtained by the Board of Directors of Greenlight Re or GRIL, as applicable. At December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with these investment guidelines.

In addition, GRIL’s investment guidelines require that the ten largest investments shall not constitute more than 40% of the GRIL Surplus, and GRIL’s investment portfolio shall at all times, unless waived by the GRIL board of directors, be composed of a minimum of 50 debt or equity securities of publicly traded companies. From time to time, Solasglas may hold a small number of relatively large security positions in relation to our capital accounts. Since Solasglas may not be widely diversified by security or by industry, it may be subject to more rapid changes in value than would be the case if our investment portfolio were required to maintain a wide diversification among companies, securities industries, and types of securities.

Under the Solasglas LPA, we are contractually obligated to invest substantially all our assets in Solasglas with certain exceptions. Solasglas’ performance depends on the ability of DME Advisors to select and manage appropriate investments.

DME Advisors acts as the exclusive investment advisor for Solasglas. Apart from funds required for collateral purposes, funds allocated to our Innovations investment strategy, risk management, and other operational needs, we are contractually obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause substantially all investable assets of Greenlight Re and GRIL to be contributed to Solasglas. Although DME Advisors is contractually obligated to follow the investment guidelines of both Greenlight Re and GRIL, we cannot provide assurance as to how DME Advisors will allocate our investable assets to different investment opportunities.

The performance of the Solasglas investment portfolio depends to a great extent on the ability of DME Advisors to select
