PEMBROKE, Bermuda, November 20, 2020 — Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MHLD) (“Maiden”) announced today that it has amended its cash tender offer (the “Offer”) for its Series A Preference Shares, Series C Preference Shares and Series D Preference Shares (each as defined in the table below). Maiden, through its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Maiden Reinsurance Ltd. (the “Company”), is offering to purchase 3,300,000 shares of each series of the outstanding securities (each, a “Series Purchase Amount”) listed in the table below (the “Securities”) as more fully described in the Offer to Purchase (as defined below).

Series of Securities	CUSIP No. / ISIN	Liquidation Preference Per Share			Aggregate Liquidation Preference Outstanding			Offer Price
8.250% Non-Cumulative Preference Shares, Series A of Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (“Series A Preference Shares”)	G5753U 120 /​ BMG5753U1201	​	$	25.00	​	$	150,000,000	$10.50 per share
7.125% Non-Cumulative Preference Shares, Series C of Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (“Series C Preference Shares”)	G5753U 138 /​ BMG5753U1383	​	$	25.00	​	$	165,000,000	$10.50 per share
6.700% Non-Cumulative Preference Shares, Series D of Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (“Series D Preference Shares”)	G5753U 146 /​ BMG5753U1466	​	$	25.00	​	$	150,000,000	$10.50 per share

The consideration for each Series A Preference Share, each Series C Preference Share and each Series D Preference Share tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer will equal $10.50 (the “Offer Price”). The Offer Price does not, and will not, include any amount with respect to dividends. If the Offer is fully subscribed, the Company will purchase the Series Purchase Amount for each series, resulting in an aggregate purchase amount of $103,950,000, excluding fees and expenses (including, without limitation, the retail processing fees described below).

The principal purpose of the Offer is to adjust Maiden’s capital structure to reflect its current operations and the amount of capital required to operate both Maiden and the Company. Maiden’s board of directors has not declared or paid dividends on the Securities since the fourth quarter of 2018 and there can be no assurance that Maiden will declare and pay dividends on the Securities in the future. The Securities are perpetual and there is no fixed date on which Maiden is required to redeem or otherwise repurchase them. Further, given the perpetual form of capital the Securities represent, there can be no assurance that Maiden or the Company will make additional offers in the future to purchase the Securities.

The acquisition by the Company of the Securities pursuant to this Offer is being made in compliance with the Company’s investment policy which has been approved by the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation.

Maiden or the Company reserves the right, but is not obligated, to increase any Series Purchase Amount in its sole and absolute discretion. The Offer will expire on December 22, 2020 at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, unless Maiden or the Company extends it (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the “Expiration Time”).

If the aggregate number of shares of a series of the Securities that are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (each, a “Series Total Tender Amount”) exceeds the Series Purchase Amount for that series, the Company will accept for purchase that number of Securities of that series that does not result in such Series Total Tender Amount exceeding the Series Purchase Amount. In that event, the Securities of such series will be subject to proration, as described in the Amended and Restated Offer to Purchase dated November 20, 2020 (the “Offer to Purchase”). If the Series Total Tender Amount with respect to the Securities of a series is less than the Series Purchase Amount as of the Expiration Time (each, an “Under-Tendered Series”), the Company will accept for purchase such Series Total Tender

Amount. In that event, each other Series Purchase Amount whose Series Total Tender Amount exceeds its Series Purchase Amount as of the Expiration Time (each, an “Over-Tendered Series”) will be increased ratably on a series by series basis by the number of shares by which any Series Purchase Amount for an Under-Tendered Series exceeds its Series Total Tender Amount. In no event will a Series Purchase Amount be reduced below 3,300,000 shares for any series other than in accordance with the provisions described in the preceding sentence.

The Company will pay the purchase price for the Securities it purchases promptly after the Expiration Time and the acceptance of the Securities for purchase. The date on which such payment is made is referred to as the “Settlement Date.” The Company currently expects the Settlement Date to be December 24, 2020.

Securities tendered pursuant to the Offer may be validly withdrawn at any time on or prior to the Expiration Time by following the procedures described in the Offer to Purchase.

The terms and conditions of the Offer are described in the Offer to Purchase. The Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions specified in the Offer to Purchase.

The Offer to Purchase will be mailed to record holders of the Securities and will be furnished to brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies or other nominee stockholders and similar persons whose names, or the names of whose nominees, appear on Maiden’s shareholder list or, if applicable, who are listed as participants in a clearing agency’s security position listing for subsequent transmittal to beneficial owners of the Securities. The Offer to Purchase contains important information that holders are urged to read before any decision is made with respect to the Offer.

Pursuant to Rule 13e-4(c)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Maiden will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) an Issuer Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, which contains additional information with respect to the Offer. The Schedule TO, including the exhibits and any amendments and supplements thereto, may be examined, and copies may be obtained, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

The Company will pay registered brokers and dealers in the United States that process tenders into the Offer from DTC participants and persons resident in the United States (the “Retail Processing Dealers”) retail processing fees. Each Retail Processing Dealer that successfully processes tenders from a retail beneficial owner of Securities will be eligible to receive a retail processing fee from the Company equal to $0.125 per Series A Preference Share, Series C Preference Share or Series D Preference Share validly tendered and not properly withdrawn by or on behalf of such retail beneficial owner and accepted for purchase by the Company, except for any Series A Preference Shares, Series C Preference Shares or Series D Preference Shares tendered by a Retail Processing Dealer for its own account.
