The 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Global Indemnity Group, LLC will be held virtually, via a live webcast, at 12:00 P.M. Eastern on June 12, 2024. On or about April 30, 2024, we mailed you a proxy card, the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting (the “Proxy Statement”), and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “10-K”) (collectively, the “Proxy Materials”).

Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) has fixed the close of business on April 15, 2024 as the record date for the Annual Meeting. All shareholders of record at that time are entitled to notice of and are entitled to vote in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof.

COMPANY INFORMATION

Global Indemnity Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company formed on June 23, 2020, replaced Global Indemnity Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares, as the ultimate parent company of the Global Indemnity group of companies as a result of a redomestication transaction completed on August 28, 2020 (the “Redomestication”). The Class A Common Shares of Global Indemnity Group, LLC are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GBLI.” Our predecessor companies have been publicly traded since 2003. Our website is www.gbli.com. Information on our website is not incorporated into this Proxy Statement.

References in this Proxy Statement to “Global Indemnity,” “GBLI,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Global Indemnity Group, LLC and our consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise or, prior to August 28, 2020, to Global Indemnity Limited.

VOTING AND REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES

If, at the close of business on April 15, 2024, you were a shareholder of record, you may vote your shares by proxy either by mail or by participating in the Annual Meeting, or any adjournments or postponements thereof. For shares held through a bank, broker or other nominee, you may vote by following the instructions provided by your bank, broker or nominee to submit voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee. You may revoke your proxy or proxies at the times and in the manners described below.

If you are a shareholder of record or hold shares through a bank, broker or other nominee and are voting by proxy, in order to be counted your mailed proxy card must be received by 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time) on June 10, 2024.

General:

The following proposals are scheduled to be voted on at the Annual Meeting:

In addition, if any other matters are properly brought up at the Annual Meeting (other than the proposals contained in this Proxy Statement) or any adjournments or postponements thereof, then the individuals named in your proxy card will have the authority to vote your shares on those matters in accordance with their discretion and judgment. The Board currently does not know of any matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting other than the proposals contained in this Proxy Statement.

On the record date, 9,810,763 Class A Common Shares and 3,793,612 Class B Common Shares of GBLI were issued and outstanding (“Outstanding Voting Shares”). On each matter voted on at the Annual Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof, each record holder of Class A Common Shares will be entitled to one vote per share and each record holder of Class B Common Shares will be entitled to ten votes per share. The holders of Class A Common Shares and the holders of Class B Common Shares will vote together as a single class.

The required quorum for the Annual Meeting consists of the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the Outstanding Voting Shares, taken as a single class, present in person or represented by proxy. For each of the proposals being considered at the Annual Meeting, other than Proposal One, approval of the proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast. For Proposal One, election of the director nominee requires a plurality of the votes present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

If you mark your proxy as “Abstain” on any matter, or if you give specific instructions that no vote be cast on any specific matter, the shares represented by your proxy will not be voted on that matter and will have no effect on the outcome of such matter but will be counted in determining whether a quorum is present. Proxies submitted by banks, brokers or other nominees that do not indicate a vote for one or more of the proposals because the bank, broker or other nominee does not have discretionary voting authority, but does have discretionary authority to vote on at least one proposal, and has not received instructions as to how to vote on those proposals (so called “broker non-votes”) are also considered in determining whether a quorum is present, but will not affect the outcome of any vote.

Banks, brokers or other nominees holding shares in street name for beneficial owners are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by the beneficial owner. In the absence of timely directions, your broker, bank or other nominee will have discretion to vote your shares on our sole “routine” matter, the proposal to ratify the appointment of Global Indemnity Group, LLC’s independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. Your broker will not have discretion to vote on any other proposals, which are “non-routine” matters, absent direction from you.

With respect to Proposal One, you may vote “for” or “withhold” authority to vote for the nominee. If you “withhold” authority to vote, your vote will have no effect on the election of such nominee. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of the nominee.

You may vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy. All valid proxies received before the Annual Meeting will be voted according to their terms. If you complete your proxy properly, but do not provide instructions as to how to vote your shares, your proxy will be voted as follows at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof:

If any other business is properly brought before the Annual Meeting, shares subject to proxies will be voted, to the extent permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), in accordance with the discretion of the persons voting such proxies. If you are a shareholder of record, you may change your vote and revoke your proxy by:

We will bear the cost of preparing and soliciting proxies, including the reasonable charges and expenses of brokerage firms or other nominees for forwarding proxy materials to shareholders. In addition to solicitation by mail, certain of our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies personally or by telephone or other electronic means without extra compensation, with the exception of reimbursement for actual expenses incurred in connection with the solicitation. The enclosed proxy is solicited by and on behalf of our Board.

PROPOSAL ONE: ELECTION OF DIRECTOR

Our Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “LLCA”) provides that the size of our Board shall be determined from time to time by our Board, and the number of directors on our Board is currently fixed at eight. The current directors on our Board are Saul A. Fox, Joseph W. Brown, Fred R. Donner, Seth J. Gersch, Jason B. Hurwitz, Fred E. Karlinsky, Thomas M. McGeehan, and Gary C. Tolman.

Under the LLCA, the Class B Majority Shareholder is any person or group that, together with their respective affiliates, holds, beneficially or of record, (i) a majority of the outstanding Class B Common Shares and (ii) shares representing in the aggregate, at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting power of Global Indemnity’s outstanding shares. The Fox Paine Fund and FM Entities (collectively with Fox Paine & Company, LLC, the “Fox Paine Entities”), as defined in the “Principal Shareholders and Security Ownership of Management” section of this proxy statement, beneficially own 100% of the outstanding Class B Common Shares and Class A and B Common Shares representing approximately 84% of the voting power of GBLI as of April 15, 2024 and are therefore the Class B Majority Shareholder. Pursuant to Section 5.3 of the LLCA, and based on the percentage of the voting power in the Company of the Class B Majority Shareholder as of the record date, the Class B Majority Shareholder is entitled, but is not obligated, to appoint seven of the eight directors of the Board (the “Designated Directors”). The Class B Majority Shareholder notified GBLI in writing on April 23, 2024, that it has appointed the following seven (7) individuals to serve as Designated Directors for a term beginning on the date of the Annual Meeting and expiring at Global Indemnity’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders: Saul A. Fox; Joseph W. Brown; Fred R. Donner; Jason B. Hurwitz, Fred E. Karlinsky, Thomas M. McGeehan and Gary C. Tolman.

Our Board has nominated Seth J. Gersch for election as director to fill the remaining Board seat, for a term expiring at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or when a successor is duly elected and qualified. If Mr. Gersch becomes unable to or declines to serve as a director prior to election at the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy shall have discretionary authority to vote for a substitute or substitutes as the Board may nominate.

See “Additional Information – Principal Shareholders and Security Ownership of Management.”

Designated Directors

Saul A. Fox, 70, founded Fox Paine & Company (hereafter, including its affiliates, “Fox Paine”), a private equity investment and advisory firm, in 1996 and served as Fox Paine’s chief executive from its inception through the date hereof. Fox Paine founded Global Indemnity’s original predecessor company in August 2003, and Mr. Fox served as the chairman of Global Indemnity (including its predecessor companies) since its

5

founding. Mr. Fox also served as Global Indemnity’s chief executive from February 2007 to June 2007. Fox Paine constitutes Global Indemnity’s largest shareholder and holds a majority of Global Indemnity’s voting shares.

At the time Fox Paine founded Global Indemnity’s predecessor in 2003, Fox Paine and Global Indemnity entered into an agreement pursuant to which Fox Paine agreed to provide Global Indemnity with advice regarding mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, financings, investment strategies, vetting of independent investment managers, corporate structure, vetting of management, management compensation, jurisdictional tax optimization, and various other matters.

Pursuant to its agreement with Global Indemnity, Fox Paine advised Global Indemnity regarding the acquisitions of Global Indemnity’s predecessor and constituent organizations, including United National in 2003, Penn Independent in 2005, Penn America Group in 2005, Collectibles Insurance Services in 2010, and American Reliable in 2015.

Fox Paine advised Global Indemnity regarding the buyback of 45% of Global Indemnity’s outstanding shares in 2015. Since Global Indemnity’s inception, Fox Paine has approved over $600 million in cash distributions to Global Indemnity shareholders by way of share buybacks and dividends, although Fox Paine has not participated in any of Global indemnity’s share buybacks nor has Fox Paine otherwise sold any of its Global Indemnity shares. In 2020, Fox Paine also advised Global Indemnity regarding its redomestication to the United States from the Cayman Islands, that included the reorganization of Global Indemnity as a publicly traded Delaware limited liability company, which is regarded as a non-taxable pass-through organization for United States federal income tax purposes.

Over Mr. Fox’s 40 year career in private equity, Mr. Fox orchestrated numerous acquisitions, mergers, divestitures, financings, and various other transactions in a broad array of industries, including property & casualty insurance and reinsurance, oil & natural gas exploration, production, and drilling, geophysical software development and distribution, independent alternative electrical power production, medical diagnostic devices and therapeutic instruments, budget lodging, and the manufacture and distribution (both wholesale & retail) of luxury perfumes, cosmetics, and related ‘high-end’ personal care products. In total, Mr. Fox completed 99 such transactions totaling $21 billion in which $1.7 billion of invested equity capital grew to $5.8 billion, providing investors with a 3.4x Return on Investment and a 39% average Internal Rate of Return.

Prior to founding Fox Paine, Mr. Fox was a general partner of Kohlberg, Kravis & Roberts & Co. (“KKR”), a pioneering private equity investment firm, which Mr. Fox joined in 1984. During Mr. Fox’s 13 years at KKR, Mr. Fox led the firm’s successful acquisitions and divestitures of American Reinsurance (KKR’s first insurance company acquisition), Canadian General Insurance (KKR’s first international acquisition), and Motel 6 (which was one of the very first actively managed operating businesses to utilize the master limited partnership structure to effectuate an initial public offering).

Prior to joining KKR, Mr. Fox was an attorney at Latham & Watkins LLP, specializing in tax and commercial law. Mr. Fox received a Juris Doctor degree (cum laude) from the University of Pennsylvania School of Law in 1978 and a baccalaureate degree (summa cum laude) from Temple University in 1975.

PROPOSAL TWO: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF GLOBAL INDEMNITY GROUP, LLC’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

General

The appointment of an independent registered public accounting firm is made annually by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reviews both the audit scope and estimated fees for professional services for the coming year. The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young Global Limited (“EY”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. As a matter of good corporate governance, the Audit Committee submits its selection of the independent registered public accounting firm to our shareholders for ratification in a non-binding vote at the Annual Meeting. If the shareholders do not ratify the appointment of EY, the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm may be reconsidered by the Audit Committee. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change is in the best interests of GBLI and its shareholders.

A representative of EY is expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders at the Annual Meeting. The representative will also have the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires.

Information Regarding Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The following table shows the fees that were billed to us by EY for professional services rendered for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Audit Fees

This category includes fees for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of interim quarterly financial statements included on our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by EY in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

Audit-Related Fees

This category includes fees for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not included above under “Audit Fees.” In 2023, we paid EY $315,000 to prepare a financial due diligence report. No payments were made to EY in 2022 for audit-related fees.

Tax Fees

This category includes fees for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. The services provided included tax advice and assistance with tax compliance and reporting to federal, state and foreign taxing authorities as well as transfer pricing services. In 2023, we paid EY $160,000 for tax compliance services. In 2022, we paid EY $155,000 for tax compliance services, and $65,000 for consulting services related to the federal employee retention credit. The Audit Committee considered whether providing the non-audit services shown in the table above was compatible with maintaining EY independence and concluded that it was.

9

All Other Fees

This category includes fees for products and services provided by EY that are not included in the categories described above. No payments were made to EY in 2023 or 2022 for all other fees.

Pre-Approval of Services

To ensure that our independent registered public accounting firm maintains the highest level of independence and pursuant to the Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy, the Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the audit and permitted non-audit services performed by our registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee pre-approved 100% of the fees for audit and non-audit services performed by EY during the year ended December 31, 2023. To ensure that the provision of these services does not impair the independence of our independent auditor, unless a type of service to be provided by our independent auditor and the associated fees have been pre-approved in accordance with the Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy, the Audit Committee’s separate pre-approval of any proposed services and the associated fees is required. The Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy only applies to services provided to us by our independent auditor; it does not apply to similar services performed by persons other than our independent auditor. The term of any pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. The Audit Committee will periodically, or more often as it deems necessary in its judgment, reassess and revise the Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy. The Audit Committee most recently reassessed and approved its Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy in November 2016. The Audit Committee Pre-Approval Fee Level Schedule is approved annually, with the most recent approval in December 2023.

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting will be required for the ratification of the appointment of EY as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

The Board of Directors Recommends voting “For” Proposal Two.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CERTAIN GOVERNANCE MATTERS

Board Structure

It is our policy to separate the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. While we recognize that different board leadership structures may be appropriate for companies in different situations, we believe that our current policy of having a separate Chairman of the Board is the most appropriate for us at this time. In today’s challenging economic and regulatory environment, directors, more than ever, are required to spend a substantial amount of time and energy in successfully navigating a wide variety of issues and guiding the policies and practices of the companies they oversee. To that end, we believe that having a Chairman of the Board independent of the Company’s management, whose sole job is to lead the Board, allows our management to better focus their time and energy on running the day-to-day operations of GBLI. The Board believes that GBLI’s current leadership structure does not affect its role in risk oversight of GBLI.

While the full Board is ultimately responsible for risk oversight, the Board exercises its risk oversight responsibilities through its committees, which regularly report to the full Board. Our Enterprise Risk Management Committee addresses enterprise risk matters, the Audit Committee addresses financial reporting risk, the Nomination, Compensation and Governance Committee addresses compensation related matters, the Investment Committee addresses risks related to investing and the Technology Committee addresses risks related to technology. Finally, our Board regularly meets with members of the senior management team at quarterly meetings of the Board, where, among other topics, they discuss strategy and risks facing GBLI, as well as at such other times as they deem appropriate. For a further discussion, see “Board Committees” below.

Our Board has determined that Fred R. Donner, Seth J. Gersch, Jason B. Hurwitz, Fred E. Karlinsky, and Gary C. Tolman are independent as defined by applicable NYSE Listing Rules and the SEC rules. We believe that the number of independent, experienced directors that make up our Board, along with the oversight of our Board by the non-executive Chairman of the Board, benefits us and our shareholders.

Meetings and Independence Requirements

Our Board held six meetings in 2023. In 2023, all of the incumbent members of our Board attended 75% or more of the total number of meetings of our Board and the total number of meetings held by committees on which they served that were held during the period for which they were directors and served on such committees.

The Annual Meeting will be our twenty-first annual meeting of shareholders. We do not have a policy about directors’ attendance at our annual meeting of shareholders. No director attended our 2023 Annual Meeting.

Global Indemnity is a “controlled company” as defined in the NYSE Listed Company Manual Section 303A.00 because more than 50% of our voting power is held by affiliated funds of Fox Paine & Company, LLC. See “Additional Information — Principal Shareholders and Security Ownership of Management.” Therefore, we are exempt from certain requirements of the NYSE with respect to (1) having a majority of independent directors on our Board, (2) having the compensation of our executive officers determined by a majority of independent directors or a compensation committee composed solely of independent directors, and (3) having nominees for director selected or recommended for selection by either a majority of independent directors or a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors.

There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

Board Committees

The Board currently has six members and the following seven committees: Audit; Conflicts; Nomination, Compensation & Governance; Executive; Investment; Technology; and Enterprise Risk Management.

11

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee held five meetings in 2023. The Audit Committee currently consists of Seth J. Gersch, Fred R. Donner, Jason B. Hurwitz, and Gary C. Tolman. Mr. Gersch is the Chair of the Audit Committee. Our Board has determined that Messrs. Gersch, Donner, Hurwitz, and Tolman each qualify as an “independent director” as that term is defined in the NYSE Listing Rules, and each member of the Audit Committee satisfies the enhanced independence requirements for Audit Committee members under the rules of the SEC and the NYSE Listed Company Manual Section 303A.07. Our Board has also determined that all four members of the Audit Committee are able to read and understand fundamental financial statements as required by the NYSE Listed Company Manual and that each of Messrs. Gersch, Donner, Hurwitz, and Tolman qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the rules of the SEC.

The principal duties of the Audit Committee are to oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audit of our financial statements, to select and retain our independent auditor, to review with management and our independent auditor our annual financial statements and related footnotes, to review our internal audit activities, to review with our independent auditor the planned scope and results of the annual audit and its reports and recommendations, and to review with the independent auditor matters relating to our system of internal controls.

A copy of our Audit Committee Charter is available on our website at www.gbli.com.

Conflicts Committee

The Conflicts Committee held one meeting in 2023. The Conflicts Committee consists of Seth J. Gersch and Fred E. Karlinsky. Mr. Gersch is the Chair of the Conflicts Committee.

The primary duty of the Conflicts Committee is to, as and when requested by the Board, investigate, review, evaluate and take action upon any actual or potential conflicts of interest that may exist or arise from time to time in connection with any transaction, activity, arrangement, circumstance or other matter between or among one or more of GBLI’s shareholders and/or directors or any of their affiliates, on the one hand, and GBLI, on the other hand.

A copy of our Conflicts Committee Charter is available on our website at www.gbli.com.

Nomination, Compensation & Governance Committee

The Nomination, Compensation & Governance Committee (“Nom-Comp Committee”) held four meetings in 2023. The Nom-Comp Committee currently consists of Fred R. Donner, Jason B. Hurwitz, and Fred E. Karlinsky. Messrs. Donner, Hurwitz, and Karlinsky qualify as independent directors under the applicable NYSE Listed Company Manual and SEC rules and as “non-employee directors” under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. Mr. Donner is the Chair of the Nom-Comp Committee.

The primary duties of the Nom-Comp Committee are to identify and recommend to the Board individuals qualified to serve as directors and on committees; to advise the Board with respect to the Board composition, procedures and committees; to oversee GBLI’s compensation and employee benefit plans and practices, including its executive compensation plans and its incentive-compensation and equity-based plans; to review and discuss with management the Company’s compensation discussion and analysis to be included in the Company’s annual proxy statement or annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC; to prepare the Compensation Committee Report as required by the rules of the SEC; to develop, recommend and advise the Board with respect to the corporate governance principles applicable to the Company; and to oversee the evaluation of the Board and the Company’s management.

The Nom-Comp Committee meets at least once a year in conjunction with a regularly scheduled Board meeting and as needed at other times. Management participates in such meetings at the invitation of the Nom-Comp Committee, providing financial data on which compensation decisions are based, publicly available compensation data with respect to our competitors, and updates on legal developments affecting compensation. Management may also propose financial targets on which performance will be judged. Generally, at each meeting an executive session is held without members of management present. In the course of its activities, the Nom-Comp Committee may designate or allocate all or any portion of its responsibilities and powers to a subcommittee consisting of one or more of its members.

Further discussion regarding the Nom-Comp Committee’s processes for setting executive compensation is set forth under “Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Committee Activities and Compensation paid to Named Executive Officers with Respect to 2023” and “Our Compensation Philosophy.”

The Company’s Insider Trading Policy prohibits directors, officers and employees from purchasing the Company’s securities on margin, from holding the Company’s securities in margin accounts, engaging in short sales, trading in any options, borrowing against any account in which the Company’s securities are held, or pledging the Company’s securities as collateral for a loan.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

General

The form and amount of non-employee director compensation is determined by the Board. Our directors that are also employees of the Company are not generally separately compensated for their service as directors,. We believe that director compensation should not only be competitive within the insurance industry, but also fair and reasonable in light of our directors’ background and experiences, as well as the overall time, effort and complexity involved in carrying out their responsibilities as directors.

To align the objectives of our directors and our shareholders, as well as to retain directors for an extended period, our non-employee directors receive annual retainers for serving on the Board and each committee payable in cash and in restricted Class A Common Shares. The annual retainers are allocated between Global Indemnity Group, LLC and GBLI Holdings, LLC. The number of Class A Common Shares to be issued to a director is determined by dividing the amount of the remuneration earned for the calendar quarter divided by the per share value in respect of the calendar quarter. The per share value in respect of the calendar quarter equals (i) the volume weighted average closing price of our Class A Common Shares on NYSE over the calendar quarter during which the remuneration was earned, less (ii) dividends paid in such calendar quarter in respect of such number of Class A Common Shares. Non-employee director awards were granted under Global Indemnity Limited’s 2018 Share Incentive Plan, as amended on August, 28, 2020, (the “2018 Share Incentive Plan”) until June of 2023 and since then have been granted under the Global Indemnity Group, LLC 2023 Share Incentive Plan (the “2023 Share Incentive Plan”).

The below restrictions on transfer, sale and disposition are designed to ensure that our directors maintain a long-term perspective when overseeing our operations. Further, the Company’s insider trading policy prohibits directors from purchasing the Company’s securities on margin and from holding the Company’ securities in margin accounts and prohibits directors from engaging in short sales of the Company’s securities or trading in any options (including, but not limited to, puts and calls) to buy or sell such securities.

All non-employee directors, except Mr. Fox, are eligible to receive reimbursement for their reasonable business related expenses and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in order to attend Board meetings, Board committee meetings, and other events requiring in-person attendance. Non-employee directors do not receive attendance fees for meetings.

While a member of the Board and during the twelve calendar months immediately following the date a director ceases to be a member of the Board, a director may not hypothecate, sell or otherwise dispose of any Class A Common Shares, Global Indemnity share derivatives or any other Global Indemnity (including its affiliates’) securities unless any such transaction is approved in advance in writing by the Chairperson of the Board, in his or her sole discretion. In addition, all trades (including, without limitation, any sale, hypothecation, other disposition, purchase or other acquisition) of any Global Indemnity Class A Common Shares, Global Indemnity share derivatives, of any other Global Indemnity (including its affiliates’) securities must comply with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy.

To protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and its subsidiaries, including their trade secrets, confidential information and existing and prospective client, broker and other valuable business relationships that form a substantial part of their goodwill, each director agrees that while serving as a director of the Company or its affiliates, he or she will not “Compete with the Companies” as described below. If a director violates this provision, as reasonably determined by the Company, then, in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, such director shall promptly repay an amount equal to the total dollar value of all Gross-Up Shares and Gross-Up Cash, as defined below in the 2023 and 2024 sections of the Retainer and Fee Schedule, received by or credited to such director or former director since January 1, 2020 (the “Gross-Up Reimbursement”).

16

To further protect the aforementioned legitimate business interests, each director agrees that if, at any time during the twelve calendar months immediately following a director’s service on the Board, he or she Competes with the Companies, as reasonably determined by the Company, then, in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, such former director shall promptly repay an amount equal to the Gross-Up Reimbursement. The Chairperson, in his or her sole discretion, may, upon the request of any current or former director, exempt from the obligation to repay the Gross-Up Reimbursement any activity or investment by such director that might otherwise be prohibited by the non-competition provisions if the Chairperson determines it is in the best interest of the Company to do so.

“Compete[s] with the Companies” means providing “Assistance” to a “Competitor.”

“Competitor” means any company, partnership, business association or group of affiliated companies, partnerships or business associations offering insurance products or services that are competitive with the insurance products or services being offered by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates in any “Market” in which the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates are then offering such insurance products or services (a “Competitive Product”) and shall include, but not be limited to, any company, partnership, business association or group of affiliated companies, partnerships or business associations listed as a peer in the latest annual report of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Competitor shall not include any company or group of affiliated companies that in the twelve (12) calendar months preceding the date the current or former director began providing Assistance, had (i) less than $50 million of aggregate gross insurance premiums; and (ii) out of such aggregate gross insurance premiums, less than 10% were generated from a Competitive Product.

“Market” means any of the following: (i) an area such as a country, state, region or subdivision thereof, (ii) a product market such as equine mortality, or (iii) an industry market such as the reinsurance market.

Providing “Assistance” to a Competitor, means either (i) directly or indirectly, assisting, aiding or advising a Competitor, whether as an employee, executive, director, consultant or otherwise; and/or (ii) owning, operating or providing financing to, a Competitor. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall not constitute providing “Assistance”: (i) owning passive minority interests in publicly traded securities issued by Competitors; and/or (ii) assisting, aiding or advising a Competitor at the written request of, or with the approval of, the Chairperson, such permission to be given or withheld in his or her sole discretion.

Retainer and Fee Schedule

Each non-employee director elects their annual remuneration to be paid either in fully vested Class A Common Shares or in cash. If the non-employee director elects to be paid in Class A Common Shares, then the non-employee director receives “Gross-Up Amounts” equal to 37% of the amount of remuneration a non-employee director earns during the applicable calendar quarter. Each non-employee director elects to receive the Gross-Up Amounts in cash, Class A Common Shares or a combination thereof. The amount of Class A Common Shares included as part of or all of any Gross-Up Amounts is equal to the portion of the Gross-Up Amount for the calendar quarter divided by the per share value in respect of the calendar quarter as described in the “General” section above.

The amount of the annual retainer for each non-employee director is: (1) $50,000 for all non-employee directors; (2) an additional $150,000 for the Chairperson; (3) an additional $150,000 for the non-employee director who chairs the Audit Committee; (4) an additional $75,000 for non-employee directors who serve on the Audit Committee in a capacity other than Chairperson; (5) an additional $50,000 for the non-employee director who chairs the Conflicts Committee; (6) an additional $25,000 for the non-employee directors who serve on the Conflicts Committee in a capacity other than Chairperson; (7) an additional $150,000 for the non-employee director who chairs the Investment Committee; (8) an additional $50,000 for non-employee directors who serve on the Investment Committee in a capacity other than Chairperson; (9) an additional $75,000 for the non-employee director who chairs the Nomination, Compensation, & Governance Committee; (10) an additional

17

$50,000 for non-employee directors who serve on the Nomination, Compensation, & Governance Committee in a capacity other than Chairperson; (11) an additional $150,000 for the non-employee director who chairs the Executive Committee; (12) an additional $50,000 for non-employee directors who serve on the Executive Committee in a capacity other than Chairperson; (13) an additional $125,000 for the non-employee director who chairs the Enterprise Risk Committee; (14) an additional $75,000 for non-employee directors who serve on the Enterprise Risk Committee in a capacity other than Chairperson; (15) an additional $150,000 for the non-employee director who chairs the Technology Committee; and (16) an additional $50,000 for the non-employee directors who serve on the Technology Committee in a capacity other than Chairperson.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Introduction

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis focuses on the compensation of the executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table that follows (our “named executive officers”). Our named executive officers for 2023 were:

The following is a discussion of our objectives and philosophies regarding executive officer compensation, as well as the actions taken in 2023 and the compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to our named executive officers with respect to 2023 performance.

Committee Activities and Compensation Paid to Named Executive Officers With Respect to 2023

The Nom-Comp Committee met four times in 2023. Actions included approving the executive officers’ 2023 salaries and bonus incentive opportunities. The Nom-Comp Committee or the Board, after consulting with our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to matters relating to the Chief Executive Officer), has approved the compensation and the employment agreements and arrangements for all of our named executive officers. Following the fiscal year, the Nom-Comp Committee also typically conducts an annual review of the performance of our named executive officers and did so in early 2024 with respect to performance for 2023.

The Nom-Comp Committee approves all grants of equity compensation to our named executive officers and determines the size of the grants as it deems appropriate to achieve the goals as described below and establishes the time or times at which equity will be awarded.

Our Compensation Philosophy

Our primary goals in structuring compensation opportunities for our named executive officers are: (1) fostering achievement of corporate performance objectives; (2) recognizing executives’ contributions to corporate success; and (3) attracting and retaining quality professionals. We apply a consistent compensation philosophy for all named executive officers. This philosophy is based on the premise that our achievements result from the coordinated efforts of all employees, including our named executive officers, working toward our business objectives. The Nom-Comp Committee designed and refines the executive compensation program to support the overall objective of maximizing long-term shareholder value by aligning the interests of executives with the interests of shareholders and by rewarding executives for achieving corporate and individual objectives.

We have entered into employment agreements or arrangements with certain of our named executive officers, as described in more detail below following the Summary Compensation Table. These agreements and arrangements are important to the future of our business because our success depends, in significant part, upon the individual employees who represent us in dealings with our producers and the investment community, execute our business strategy and identify and pursue strategic opportunities and initiatives. We believe that such agreements and arrangements are helpful in providing our executives with comfort regarding their duties and

20

compensation. For certain executives, our employment agreement and arrangements contain restrictive covenants with respect to competitive activity, non-solicitation, and confidentiality during and following the executive’s employment with us. These covenants are particularly important in protecting our interests in what is an intensely competitive industry in which leveraging the personal relationships of our executives is critical to our success. The employment agreements and arrangements also dictate the level and extent to which the executives receive post-termination compensation.

Generally, we structure our total compensation packages for our named executive officers to be competitive with respect to compensation paid by our peer companies to their executives. We used one portion of an industry compensation survey from 2023 that was not specifically prepared for us. The following companies with written premiums between $300 million and $2 billion were used from that survey to compare our executive officers: Erie Indemnity Company, Horace Mann Educators Corporation, Tiptree, Inc., RLI Corp., ProAssurance Corporation, Universal Insurance Holdings, Inc., United Fire Group, Inc., Safety Insurance Group, Inc., Donegal Group, Inc., Employers Holdings, Inc., Kinsale Capital Group, Inc., United Insurance Holdings Corp., Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc., HCI Group, Inc., Hallmark Financial Services, Inc., Root, Inc., Investors Title Company, Amerisafe, Inc., Ryan Specialty Group Holdings, Inc., Crawford & Company and GoHealth, Inc. (collectively the “Peer Group”). We believe that use of such peer and competitor comparison provides a suitable basis for addressing and balancing between the competitive nature of our business and the attendant need to recruit and retain talented executives by providing competitive compensation against the Nom-Comp Committee’s strong desire to ensure that our executives do not receive excessive compensation in relation to their peers or disproportionate to their contributions to our long-term success and shareholder value. However, we do not target any specific percentile in relation to such Peer Group with respect to any element of executive compensation. We believe that our emphasis on performance and shareholder return with a long-term perspective may result in compensation opportunities that differentiate our practices from those of our peers. In short, our compensation program has been structured so that our executives will be well compensated if, and only if, they create value for our shareholders over a period of several years.

Key Elements of Compensation

We use two primary components of executive compensation to satisfy our compensation objectives: base salary, which is provided to recognize our executive officers’ day-to-day contributions, and performance-based incentive opportunities that include both a long-term equity incentive component payable in equity awards or equity-like awards and annual bonus incentives payable in cash. The Nom-Comp Committee uses base salary to compensate executives at salary levels that are competitive with and comparable to the levels used by other companies within our Peer Group, but does not target any specific percentiles.

Our performance-based incentive opportunities generally are designed to motivate executives to focus on the performance of the division, subsidiary, or unit for which they have primary responsibility. In the first quarter of each year, our Nom-Comp Committee establishes the performance objectives that must be met during the applicable performance period for a named executive officer to earn the incentive compensation. These performance objectives reflect each executive’s responsibilities and a day-to-day emphasis on generating profits. If the incentive bonuses are earned, a portion will be paid in cash and the remaining portion in equity or equity- like awards, such as restricted stock units (“RSUs”) settled in Class A Common Shares, book value rights (“BVRs”) or book value appreciation rights (“BVARs”). The Nom-Comp Committee uses performance-based incentive opportunities to compensate and incentivize executives at levels that are competitive with and comparable to the levels used by other companies within our Peer Group, but does not target any specific percentiles.

We pay out a portion of these incentive opportunities in the form of equity or equity-like awards because we believe that short-term results do not, by themselves, accurately reflect the performance of a company in our industry or the return realized by our shareholders. These equity or equity-like awards generally vest pro rata over three or four years as described below, and unless otherwise indicated in the applicable employment

21

agreement or arrangement, vesting is subject to continued employment or Board discretion. Equity or equity-like awards are an important component of our compensation policies and are designed to motivate recipients to act from the perspective of a long-term owner. We believe that providing our named executive officers with equity or equity-like ownership: (1) serves to align the interests of our named executive officers with shareholders by creating a direct link between compensation and long-term shareholder return, (2) creates a significant, long-term interest in our success and (3) aids in the retention of key executive officers in a competitive market for executive talent. We further believe that the allocation between cash and equity or equity-like awards with respect to the annual bonuses earned provides both an incentive for the named executive officer to continue to perform at a high level and to reward the named executive officer for their performance during an applicable performance period. All equity or equity-like grants to our named executive officers are made under our share incentive plans.

From time to time, we may grant additional equity or equity-like awards or other forms of compensation, such as in connection with an executive officer’s hire or promotion. With respect to new hire or promotion equity or equity-like awards, in order to promote our goals of attracting and retaining talented executives, the awards usually vest over certain periods of time subject to continued employment in good standing, with vesting contingent in certain instances on the attainment of performance goals as described above. Equity or equity-like awards that are made upon an executive’s commencement of employment may also be contingent on the executive’s purchase of restricted stock to ensure that the executive is a shareholder with a significant personal investment in Global Indemnity.

As described below under “Employment Agreements,” Mr. Brown received options to acquire our Class A Common Shares in connection with commencement of his role as GBLI’s Chief Executive Officer and when he entered into employment agreements.

As described below under “Employment Agreements,” Mr. Oltman received options to acquire our Class A Common Shares in connection with commencement of his role as President of our Insurance Operations.

Base Salary

The Nom-Comp Committee uses base salary to compensate executives at salary levels that are competitive with and comparable to the levels used by other companies within our Peer Group but does not target any specific percentiles. The Nom-Comp Committee reviews base salaries on an annual basis to determine whether such salaries remain competitive relative to the Peer Group, and whether any adjustments would be appropriate based on other relevant factors. Base salaries for our named executive officers were initially set in the executives’ employment agreements or arrangements with us and have been increased in subsequent years in connection with merit increases, which generally relate to individual past performance, enhanced professional responsibilities and the review of Peer Group compensation. In setting the chief executive’s base salary and in evaluating the chief executive’s recommendations for the base salaries of the other named executive officers, the Nom-Comp Committee generally weighs a variety of factors, including individual past performance, potential for future successful performance with us, level and scope of responsibility and relative fairness among our executive officers. The Nom-Comp Committee reviewed and approved executive base salaries in March 2023. The named executive officers’ base salary rates did not change in 2023.

22

Incentive Opportunities

For 2023, Mr. Oltman was provided an opportunity to earn a cash bonus based on the criteria in “Target Incentives Under Employment Agreements” below. Mr. Oltman forfeited the opportunity to earn a cash bonus when his employment with GBLI ended on December 31, 2023. Our other named executive officers were provided an opportunity to earn cash and equity bonuses based on the criteria set forth in the following table:

As described below, the amounts of the annual bonuses payable to our named executive officers are dependent, in large measure, on our performance in relation to performance targets. The extent to which actual performance exceeds or falls short of target performance directly results in a corresponding increase or decrease in the bonus amounts payable.

The criteria for our annual bonus incentives for 2023 related to certain objective performance goals that included gross written premium, expense management and support services provided as well as individual performance expectations. Gross written premiums is a financial measurement that is generally viewed in the insurance industry as an indicator of revenue and growth.

Target Incentives Under Employment Agreements

Mr. Brown’s CEO Agreement, as defined in “Employment Agreements” below, provides for a cash bonus opportunity of $2,000,000 payable by March 15, 2024 subject to Mr. Brown remaining employed with GBLI through December 31, 2023. Mr. Brown’s 2024 CEO Agreement, as defined in “Employment Agreements” below, provides a minimum annual bonus of $2,000,000, payable by March 15 of each year, subject to Mr. Brown remaining employed with GBLI through the previous December 31^st.

Under the Terms of Employment, Mr. Oltman has an annual bonus opportunity of between $487,500 and $812,500 (“Oltman Bonus Opportunity”), payable based on the achievement of certain underwriting results, as determined by the Board, for each year of Mr. Oltman’s term, with 50% of the Oltman Bonus Opportunity payable in cash in the subsequent calendar year and 50% payable in Class A Common Shares following a true-up of underwriting results for the applicable year in the fourth calendar year following the applicable bonus award.

Under his employment agreement, Mr. McGeehan was eligible to receive a cash and equity bonus award under criteria developed annually by the Board and Nom-Comp Committee. Messrs. Elliott, Gibbons, and Lam are at-will employees. Messrs. Gibbons’ and Mr. Elliott’s bonus targets for 2023 were the same as the targets developed for our support services for 2022. Mr. Lam’s bonus targets were the same as the targets developed for the Penn-America business unit.

Cash Bonus Opportunity

Performance Objectives and Target Cash Bonuses

Mr. Brown received a $2,000,000 cash bonus on March 15, 2024 per the terms of Mr. Brown’s CEO Agreement.

Mr. McGeehan was eligible for a cash bonus between $125,000 and $300,000, with a target of $250,000. The first 50% of the potential cash bonus is based upon the achievement of consolidated actual adjusted accident year underwriting income in 2023 between $28.134 million and $67.522 million, with a target of $56.268 million. The second 50% of the potential cash bonus is based upon the ratio of actual consolidated accident year gross written premium in 2023 to planned consolidate gross written premiums of $485.07 million, the achievement of certain expense and budget management goals in 2023, and the achievement in 2023 of certain service quality goals. The weightings for each of these performance criteria in the second 50% of the potential cash bonus, which varied based on extent of achievement, are set forth in the following table:

Mr. Oltman was not eligible for a cash bonus in 2023.

Mr. Gibbons was eligible for a cash bonus between $81,300 and $186,900, with a target of $162,500.

One-third of the options will vest on March 6 of each of 2025, 2026, and 2027, subject to continued employment in good standing as of the applicable vesting date.

The Nom-Comp Committee believes that the targets it sets annually for cash and equity bonuses are challenging but within reach for a talented executive team. The Nom-Comp Committee is also empowered to exercise negative discretion and reduce the bonuses otherwise payable to any of our employees if the Nom-Comp Committee determines that particular corporate results were achieved without significant personal contributions by the particular employee. In addition, certain awards are subject to re-measurements at the conclusion of applicable performance periods, which may result in forfeiture of the awards or a portion thereof. The Nom-Comp Committee may also claw back bonuses if our financial statements are restated.

Other Considerations

Equity Ownership Generally

We have adopted certain policies with respect to equity compensation, all of which apply to our named executive officers, such as policies regarding insider trading which prohibit trading during periods immediately preceding the release of material non-public information. We also permit our named executive officers to establish Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, subject to the prior approval of our in-house legal department.

We expect our named executive officers to maintain a significant personal ownership stake in our company. While we have not established share ownership guidelines, as noted above, equity awards that are made upon an executive’s commencement of employment are also often contingent on the executive’s purchase of restricted stock, and we may consider adopting such guidelines in the future. The Company’s insider trading policy prohibits officers, directors and employees from purchasing the Company’s securities on margin and from holding the Company’s securities in margin accounts and prohibits officers and directors from engaging in short sales of the Company’s securities or trading in any options (including, but not limited to, puts and calls) to buy or sell such securities.

Other Benefits

Our named executive officers are entitled to participate in the various benefits made available to our employees generally, including retirement plans, group health plans, paid vacation and sick leave, basic life insurance, and short-term and long-term disability benefits. Furthermore, all of our and our subsidiaries’ directors and officers are covered by our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.

Post-Employment Benefits, Severance and Change in Control Policy

The post-employment benefits available to our named executive officers are subject to the terms of the executives’ employment agreements and arrangements. Our named executive officers are not provided with a supplemental retirement benefit plan or other pension beyond that of our 401(k) plan and matching contributions available to all of our participating employees.

The Nom-Comp Committee and our Board approve appropriate severance policies for each executive officer designed to (1) compensate an executive who is involuntarily separated from us for reasons other than for “cause” and (2) compensate the executive to the extent the executive is subject to a post-termination non-compete agreement.

27

We have adopted a limited change in control policy designed to incentivize our executive officers to pursue transactions which benefit our shareholders. The entitlement to accelerated vesting of restricted shares and options in the event that we undergo a change in control varies from executive officer to executive officer. For details regarding the potential for accelerated vesting of restricted shares, RSUs, book value rights, BVARs, and options, see the descriptions below under “Employment Agreements.” For additional details of the consequences of termination or change in control to the named executive officers, please see the disclosure related to the named executive officers under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below.

Impact of Accounting, Tax and Legal Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) limits the deductibility of compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and other “covered employees” as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code. Covered employees generally include (among others) all of the executive officers shown in the Summary Compensation Table in this proxy statement and may include any future executive officers shown in any Summary Compensation Table in any of our future proxy statements. No tax deduction is allowed for compensation paid to any covered employee to the extent that the total compensation for that executive exceeds $1,000,000 in any taxable year.

We also take into account Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code when structuring compensation. These two sections relate to the imposition of excise taxes on executives who receive, and the loss of deductibility for employers who pay, “excess parachute payments” made in connection with a change in control. We often structure our compensation opportunities in a manner that helps reduce the impact of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code.

Say-on-Pay and Say-on-Frequency

The Nom-Comp Committee has considered the result of the 2023 advisory, non-binding “say-on-pay” vote in connection with the discharge of its responsibilities. Over 99% of the votes cast approved the compensation of our named executive officers described in our proxy statement in 2023. As the level of support received by our stockholders was high, the Nom-Comp Committee decided not to make any material changes to our executive compensation programs.

In light of the voting results with respect to the frequency of shareholder votes on named executive officer compensation at the 2023 Annual Meeting in which a substantial majority of our shareholders voted for “say-on-pay” proposals to occur every three years, the Board held, in accordance with the results of such vote, a triennial advisory vote on the compensation of named executive officers until the next required vote on the frequency of shareholder votes on named executive officer compensation.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

Employment Agreements and Arrangements

Joseph W. Brown

On October 21, 2022, Global Indemnity and Mr. Brown executed a Chief Executive Officer Agreement (the “Brown CEO Agreement”) which provides for an employment term from October 21, 2022 through December 31, 2023. The Brown CEO Agreement provided for an annual base salary of $1,000,000.

The Brown CEO Agreement provides for a grant of 200,000 stock options to acquire Class A Common shares with an exercise price of $20.77. The options vest in four equal tranches as follows: 25% each on November 1, 2022, February 1, 2023, May 1, 2023 and August 1, 2023 (subject to Mr. Brown remaining employed with the Company through each vesting date). Such options may generally be transferred to Mr. Brown’s spouse, children and/or grandchildren only (or to an estate planning entity for the benefit of such individuals only). To the extent vested, such options are exercisable within 7 years of the grant.

The Brown CEO Agreement provides that Global Indemnity may terminate Mr. Brown’s employment at any time for any reason. In the event of Mr. Brown’s termination by Global Indemnity without “cause” (as defined in the Brown CEO Agreement), Mr. Brown will receive as severance an aggregate amount equal to (i) the balance of his annual base salary prorated based on how many months he served as the Chief Executive, and (ii) the full bonus amount (i.e., $2,000,000). In addition, if Mr. Brown is terminated without cause prior to August 1, 2023, the stock option will accelerate and fully vest. Payment of any severance is contingent upon compliance with the terms in the Brown CEO Agreement, including Mr. Brown’s execution of and not revoking a general release of claims in favor of Global Indemnity.

31

The Brown CEO Agreement includes perpetual confidentiality and mutual non-disparagement provisions, and two-year post-termination non-competition and non-solicitation provisions.

On January 17, 2024, Global Indemnity Group, LLC (“GBLI”) and Joseph W. Brown entered into the terms of a Chief Executive Officer Agreement (“2024 CEO Agreement”) setting forth the principal terms of Mr. Brown’s continued employment as Chief Executive Officer of GBLI.

The 2024 CEO Agreement commenced on January 1, 2024 and continues in one-year intervals, expiring on December 31, 2028. The minimum annual base salary is $1,000,000 (“Base Salary”) with a minimum annual bonus opportunity of $2,000,000, payable in cash by March 15 of each year beginning on March 15, 2025 (the “Bonus Amount”), subject to Mr. Brown remaining employed with GBLI through December 31 of the previous year. The 2024 CEO Agreement also provides for Mr. Brown’s reimbursement for reasonable work-related lodging, housing and transportation expenses.

The 2024 CEO Agreement provides for a grant of 200,000 stock options to acquire GBLI Class A common shares with an exercise price equal to the closing price of GBLI’s Class A common shares on the date of grant. The options vest in four equal tranches as follows: 25% each on the first business day of each quarter in 2024 (subject to Mr. Brown remaining employed with the Company through each vesting date), and to the extent vested, are exercisable within 7 years of the grant notwithstanding any earlier termination of employment. The stock options are subject to the terms and conditions for stock options as reflected in the Company’s 2023 Share Incentive Plan and written option agreement.

The 2024 CEO Agreement further provides that on the first business day of each year, beginning in 2025, if Mr. Brown is employed by the Company, he shall be granted 50,000 stock options to acquire GBLI Class A common shares with an exercise price equal to the closing price of GBLI’s Class A common shares on the date of grant. The options, if granted, will vest on December 31, 2028 (subject to Mr. Brown remaining employed with the Company through each vesting date), and to the extent vested, are exercisable within 7 years of the grant notwithstanding any earlier termination of employment. The stock options are subject to the terms and conditions for stock options as reflected in the Company’s share incentive plan in place at the time of the grant.

The 2024 CEO Agreement provides that GBLI may terminate Mr. Brown’s employment at any time for any reason. In the event of Mr. Brown’s termination by GBLI other than for “cause” (as defined in the 2024 CEO Agreement) and not due to his death or disability, Mr. Brown will receive as severance an aggregate lump-sum cash amount equal to (i) the balance of his Base Salary prorated based on the number of months he served as the Chief Executive Officer of GBLI during that year, and (ii) the full Bonus Amount. In addition, an granted, but unvested stock options granted on or after January 1, 2025 will vest and become fully exercisable. Payment of any severance is contingent upon compliance with the terms in the CEO Agreement, including Mr. Brown’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in favor of GBLI.

The 2024 CEO Agreement includes perpetual confidentiality and mutual non-disparagement provisions, and two-year post-termination non-competition and employee and customer non-solicitation provisions.

For a discussion of the consequences of termination or change in control under Mr. Brown’s employment agreements, please see the disclosure related to Mr. Brown under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below.

Thomas M. McGeehan

Mr. McGeehan retired on March 31, 2024. Mr. McGeehan had an executive employment agreement with the Company. The agreement initially began with a predecessor company, United America Indemnity, Ltd., but was

32

amended to reflect the Company as a party. The initial employment term was from December 8, 2009 through December 31, 2012, and was been renewed annually until his retirement. The agreement contained additional one-year renewal terms unless either party gave 120 days’ prior written notice of non-renewal to the other.

The employment agreement provided that Mr. McGeehan was entitled to an annual base salary of not less than $300,000, which was subject to review each year the agreement is in effect, commencing with calendar year 2010, and provided an initial award of 16,000 restricted Class A Common Shares, vesting in one-fourth equal installments on each anniversary of the date of grant. After the July 2, 2010 one-for-two reverse stock split, Mr. McGeehan’s awarded shares were adjusted accordingly to reflect an award of 8,000 Class A Common Shares.

For information on Mr. McGeehan’s bonus opportunities see the discussion related to Mr. McGeehan under “Target Incentives Under Employment Agreements” in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis above.

For a discussion of the consequences of termination or change in control under Mr. McGeehan’s employment agreement, please see the disclosure related to Mr. McGeehan under “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” below.

Jonathan E. Oltman

Mr. Oltman’s employment with us ended on December 31, 2023. In connection with Mr. Oltman’s appointment as President of our insurance operations, the Company and Mr. Oltman executed the “Terms of Employment” on January 19, 2021. The term of the Terms of Employment ran from January 19, 2021 through December 31, 2023. The Terms of Employment provided for an annual base salary of $650,000. The Terms of Employment provided for a grant of 140,000 stock options to acquire Class A Common Shares, of which one-third was scheduled to vest on April 1 of each of 2022, 2023 and 2024, subject to (i) the achievement of certain underwriting results for the applicable year as determined by the Board, and (ii) Mr. Oltman being a Company employee in good standing as of the applicable vesting date. All vested, unexercised stock options were scheduled to expire on the earlier of (i) January 31, 2031, (ii) the last day of the twenty-fourth month after the date Mr. Oltman’s employment was terminated without cause, (iii) ninety calendar days after the date Mr. Oltman voluntarily terminated his employment with us, (iv) the date Mr. Oltman precipitated a cause event, (v) the date Mr. Oltman’s employment was terminated for cause, and (vi) the date Mr. Oltman materially breached any material post-employment agreements with Global Indemnity.

The Terms of Employment provided Mr. Oltman with a bonus award opportunity between $487,500 and $812,500 with a target of $650,000, payable 50% in cash and 50% in Class A Common Shares. Calendar years 2021, 2022 and 2023 (corresponding to the Company’s fiscal years) are referred to as “Contract Year(s)”. With respect to each Contract Year during which Mr. Oltman served as President for the entirety of such year (or in the case of 2021, from January 19, 2021 through December 31, 2021), if and only if Global Indemnity’s insurance and reinsurance operations’ (“Penn-Patriot’s”) actual consolidated policy year underwriting income for such Contract Year (the “Actual Contract Year UI”) equaled or surpassed 75% of the amount of Penn-Patriot’s consolidated policy year underwriting income included in the business plan approved (and as may be modified) by the Board in respect of such Contract Year (the “Board Targeted UI”), then Mr. Oltman would have been entitled to a bonus award (“Bonus Award”) in respect of such Contract Year. The Bonus Award in respect of a Contract Year would have been $487,500 if the Actual Contract Year UI was 75% of the Board Targeted UI, $650,000 if the Actual Contract Year UI was 100% of the Board Targeted UI, and $812,500 if the Actual Contract Year UI was 125% or more of the Board Targeted UI. If the Actual Contract Year UI was between 75% and 125% of the Board Targeted UI, the Bonus Award in respect of a Contract Year would have been determined by interpolation.

A Bonus award would have been payable as follows: (i) if on April 1 of the calendar year immediately following the close of a Contract Year, Mr. Oltman was on such date then employed by the Company and in

33

good standing, then fifty percent (50%) of the Bonus Award in respect of such Contract Year, if any, would be deemed earned and be paid in cash (the “Bonus Award Paid Amount”); and (ii) if on April 1 of the fourth (4th) calendar year following the close of each Contract Year, Mr. Oltman was then employed by the Company and in good standing, or, if Mr. Oltman was no longer employed by Global Indemnity at such time, but Mr. Oltman (A) had not voluntarily terminated his employment with the Company, and (B) had neither been terminated for cause, precipitated a cause event, nor materially breached any material post-employment agreements, then the Bonus Award in respect of such Contract Year would have been redetermined (i.e., trued-up) based upon the (x) underwriting loss and loss adjustment expense developments in respect of the Contract Year as of December 31 of the third (3rd) calendar year following such Contract Year (the “True-up Date”) and (y) an actuarial assessment of incurred but not reported underwriting losses and loss adjustment expenses in respect of such Contract Year as of the True-up Date (the “Trued-up Bonus Award”). In the event a Trued-up Bonus Award for a Contract Year exceeds the Bonus Award Paid Amount in respect of such Contract Year, then Mr. Oltman would at such time have been paid the amount of such excess (the “Excess Payment”) in fully vested Class A Common Shares. The number of such shares would have been determined by (i) the Excess Payment divided by (ii) the per share price of Class A Common Shares on December 31 of the applicable Contract Year. In addition, the Company would have paid to Mr. Oltman the cash amount of dividends that would have been payable to the holder of such number of shares if those shares had been issued on December 31 of the applicable Contract Year.

On January 17, 2024, GBLI and Mr. Oltman entered into a Separation Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”). Among other provisions, the Separation Agreement provides, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, for severance payments of $487,500 in the aggregate over a 9-month period following the December 31, 2023 separation date (“Separation Date”). The Separation Agreement modifies Mr. Oltman’s existing covenants not to (i) solicit or hire GBLI’s employees or business and (ii) compete with GBLI, such that, among other things, such covenants run for a period of 18 months and are eliminated after the Separation Date, respectively. Additionally, Mr. Oltman will remain subject to perpetual confidentiality obligations, and Mr. Oltman and GBLI will remain subject to perpetual non-disparagement provisions.

For information on Mr. Oltman’s bonus opportunities in 2022, see the discussion related to Mr. Oltman under “Target Incentives Under Employment Agreements” in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis above.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER PAY RATIO

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Brown, during 2023.

This pay ratio below is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described below. The SEC’s rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee populations and compensation practices. As a result, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported below, as other companies have different employee populations and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

We identified the median employee for 2023 by selecting the middle employee calculated by ordering compensation of all employees, excluding Mr. Brown, from the highest to the lowest and selecting the employee at the center. We included all active employees, as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, we employed 252 persons in the United States and 17 employees in Ireland. For the United States based employees we used gross compensation as reported on Form W-2 and for Ireland based employees we used total pay plus additional compensation as reported on our 2023 payroll summary (euros were converted to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of December 31, 2023), Our median employee’s total compensation in 2023 was $103,114.

For purposes of calculating our CEO pay ratio, Mr. Brown’s annual total compensation for fiscal year 2023 was $3,016,678. Based on the methodology described above, our 2023 ratio of chief executive officer total compensation to our median employee’s total compensation is 29.26:1.
