WeBoard Leadership Structure

Our Board is lead by a Chairman. At present, the positions of President (our principal executive officer) and Chairman are held by different persons. The Board does not have a management agreement with Cedar Management, pursuantformal policy as to which Cedarwhether the roles of Chairman and President should be separate. At this time, the Board has determined that separating these roles and having an independent director serve as Chairman of the Board is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The President supervises and administers all of the general business and affairs of the Company and the Chairman sets the agenda for and presides over meetings of the Board.

Risk Management has agreed to provide

The Board believes that risk management services to us. This agreement is described under “Other Matters-Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.” Stuart Grayston, our President, is a director and officer of Cedar Management, and Thomas R. McMahon, our Vice President and Treasurer, is an officer, director and employee of Cedar Management. Both Mr. Grayston and Mr. McMahon are residents of Bermuda. Neither Mr. Grayston nor Mr. McMahon is separately compensated by us for serving as oneimportant component of our directors orcorporate strategy. Although the full Board has responsibility for the general oversight of risks, it primarily conducts its risk oversight function

through committees, including the Audit Committee and the Governance and Nominating Committee, as well as other committees. The Board is regularly informed through committee reports about our risks and discusses and reviews with management major policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. Finally, the Board believes the separated roles of Chairman and President (our principal executive officers.officer) assists us in our ability to implement major policies addressing our risks.

Meetings and Committees of the Board

Our Board has determined that Messrs. Diamond, Gillman, Harris, Katch, Klunk, Lillie and Schiffman are independent members of our Board under the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.

There were eightseven standing committees of the Board during 2008,2009, constituted as follows:

The Strategic Planning Committee was constituted in January 2008 and was dissolved in June 2008. The seven remaining standing committees, respectively, have and may exercise the full power of the Board, as to all matters relating to: the annual audit of our financial statements; review and approval of our fiscal year budget; our investment activity and consideration of various opportunities and options available to us; consideration of nominees to the Board; coordination of press releases and other communications with the public; ownership, transfer or redemption of our common shares; and the review and negotiation of reinsurance contracts.

Because historically our executive officers dodid not receive compensation from us and because only one of our executive officers began receiving such compensation in November 2009, we do not have a compensation committee. Our Board as a whole participates in the consideration of executive officer and director compensation. The Board evaluates and determines the appropriate level of executive officer and director compensation, including compensation for service as a member or chair of a Board committee. Our Board has determined that Messrs. Diamond, Gillman, Harris, Katch, Klunk, Lillie and Schiffman would qualify as independent under the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) independence rules for compensation committees.
