Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is hereby made to that certain Amended and Restated Agreement dated August 31, 2010 (as amended from time to time, the “JV Agreement”) by and among Greenlight Capital Re, Ltd. (“GLRE”), Greenlight Reinsurance, Ltd. (“Reinsurance”), Greenlight Reinsurance Ireland, Ltd. (“GRIL”, and collectively with GLRE and Reinsurance, the “GLRE Entities”) and DME Advisors, LLC (“DMELLC”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the JV Agreement.
From time to time, the GLRE Entities may wish to enter into transactions to hedge (“Hedging Transactions”) their respective exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates with respect to loss reserves held by the GLRE Entities.
In connection with such Hedging Transactions, each of the GLRE Entities, DMELLC and DME Advisors, LP (“DMELP”), intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Creation of FX Sub-Account. DMELP shall establish one or more sub-accounts (each, a “Sub-Account”) at one or more prime brokers for the purpose of engaging in Hedging Transactions.
2. No Effect on JV Performance. Notwithstanding any provision of the JV Agreement to the contrary (a) any profits or losses in connection with the Hedging Transactions shall not be included in the calculation of the Performance Allocation, and (b) the net equity, if any, of the Sub-Account shall not be included in the calculation of the Management Fee.
3. Contributions and Redemptions. Any withdrawal from a Sub-Account by a GLRE Entity shall be deemed to be a redemption from the venture for all purposes of the JV Agreement.
