In connection with the upcoming annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Reliance Global Group, Inc. (the “Company”) to be held virtually on Monday, December 16, 2024 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern time, the Company filed its definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the “Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2024, and mailed the proxy materials to its stockholders. At the Annual Meeting, stockholders are being asked to vote on the matters set forth in the Proxy Statement (collectively, the “Proposals”).

On November 11, 2024, subsequent to the mailing and filing of the Proxy Statement, the Company engaged Morrow Sodali LLC to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting. The Company will pay Morrow Sodali LLC a fee of $11,500. In addition, the Company may pay Morrow Sodali LLC a per stockholder fee to solicit holders of record as well as non-objecting beneficial owners (NOBOs). The Company will also reimburse Morrow Sodali LLC for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Our directors and officers may also solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile, mail, Internet, or in person. They will not be paid any additional amounts for soliciting proxies. The Company will reimburse banks, brokers, and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of shares of the Company’s common stock for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to beneficial owners of the common stock and in obtaining voting instructions from those beneficial owners.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

This document may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the Annual Meeting. The Company previously filed a definitive proxy statement with the SEC on October 31, 2024. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISIONS, STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC, BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING.

Participants in the Solicitation

As disclosed above, the Company has also engaged Morrow Sodali LLC, a proxy solicitation firm, to assist management with obtaining adequate votes to achieve the required quorum of at least a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote on the record date (October 17, 2024), and to approve the Proposals.
