Documents Incorporated by Reference	This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10‑K/A (“Amendment No. 1”) amends the Maiden Holdings, Ltd. (“Maiden”, or the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 10, 2025 (the “Original Filing”). We are filing this Amendment No. 1 to include the information required by Part III of Form 10‑K that was not included in the Original Filing, as we do not expect to file a definitive proxy statement in respect of an annual general meeting of our shareholders within 120 days after the end of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. As required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) new certificates of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are being filed as exhibits to this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10‑K/A. Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing. The Original Filing continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing, and we have not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect any events which occurred at a date subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the date of the Original Filing.
