May 11, 2026
Dear Bob:
This letter memorializes your notification to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) and me of RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd. (the “Company”) on May 11, 2026 of your decision to
retire.
On behalf of the Company and its Board, I want to thank you for your many years of service to the Company, during which you have demonstrated remarkable leadership and have
made immeasurable contributions to the Company. We appreciate your willingness to provide continued support and expertise to the Company as a strategic advisor to the Company.
This letter agreement (“Agreement”) supplements the terms of the Employment Agreement by and between you and the Company, dated as of July 22, 2016 (the “Employment
Agreement”), as follows:
Term. Except as otherwise agreed to by the parties, your retirement as Executive
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer will become effective on December 31, 2026 (the “Transition Date”). Following the Transition Date, you agree to serve as a strategic advisor and a non-executive employee until December 31, 2027 (the “Term”
and, the period from the date hereof to December 31, 2027, the “Transition Period”). During your service as strategic advisor, your employment will be transferred to RenRe North America Employee Services Inc.
Until the Transition Date, you shall continue to serve as the Chief Financial Officer, reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer. In your role as strategic advisor,
you agree to provide transition and other related services to the Company during the Transition Period to provide an effective transition of your executive responsibilities to the Company’s incoming Executive Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer. In addition, you will also perform the duties that may be reasonably assigned to you by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or the Board. As strategic advisor, you shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer. You and the Company
agree that based on the anticipated level of services that you will perform for the Company during the Transition Period, you are not expected to experience a “separation from service” under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, during the Transition Period.
As of the Transition Date (or your earlier termination of your employment for any reason), unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, you shall be deemed to have resigned,
without any further action by you, from any and all officer and director positions that you, immediately prior to such termination, (i) held with the Company or any of its affiliates or (ii) held with any other entities at the direction of, or as a
result of your affiliation with, the Company or any of its affiliates. If for any reason this Agreement is deemed to be insufficient to effectuate such resignations, then you shall, upon the Company’s request, execute any documents or instruments
that the Company may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate such resignations.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement alters the “at-will” nature of your employment and either party may terminate your employment at any time and for any
reason.
Compensation. During the Term, your base salary, annual bonus opportunity and
benefits arrangements (including health and welfare benefits) will continue at the same level that they have been during 2026 through the end of the Transition Period; provided, however, that (i) your annual bonus shall be pro-rated for your period
of service during 2027 and (ii) once your employment transfers to RenRe North America Employee Services Inc., you will participate in the health and welfare benefits provided by RenRe North America Employee Services Inc.
Subject to your continued service through the grant date and as an inducement for you to remain in service with the Company through the end of the Transition Period, you
will be granted annual equity awards in 2027 at the same time that the Company grants annual equity awards to its executive officers, with such awards to be granted pursuant to the same terms as the CGHCMC grants the NEOs’ awards in 2027.
Existing Employment Agreement. You and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree
that your assumption of the role of strategic advisor and retirement as Chief Financial Officer does not entitle you to terminate due to Good Reason under the Employment Agreement and that you will not be entitled to severance benefits due to a
termination for Good Reason pursuant to the Employment Agreement upon the expiration of the Transition Period (or your earlier termination of employment for any reason). However, at the end of the Term, in accordance with Section 8(f) of the
Employment Agreement, you shall be eligible to receive (i) Accrued Obligations, as contemplated in Section 8(f)(i) of the Employment Agreement, (ii) continued health benefits, as contemplated in Section 8(f)(iii) of the Employment Agreement and (iii)
your outstanding performance-based equity awards will be eligible for Retirement treatment as set forth in Section 8(f)(iv) of the Employment Agreement. In addition, this Agreement serves to inform you that, at the end of the Term, you shall remain
subject to the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 9 of the Employment Agreement (including, without limitation, the restrictive covenants relating to non-competition) and, pursuant to the terms of Section 8(f) of the Employment Agreement, the
Company shall pay you the Non-Competition Consideration contemplated by Section 8(f)(ii) of the Employment Agreement. The amounts payable under Section 8(f) of the Employment Agreement, other than the Accrued Obligations, shall be subject to your
execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in favor the Company, as contemplated in Section 8(i) of the Employment Agreement.
2
Protected Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the Employment
Agreement to the contrary, you understand that nothing contained in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement limits your ability to report possible violations of law or regulation to or file a charge or complaint with any federal, state or local
governmental agency or commission or regulatory authority (collectively, “Government Agencies”). You further understand that neither this Agreement nor the Employment Agreement limits your ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or
otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. Furthermore (I) you shall not be held criminally or civilly
liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (A) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the
purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal, and (II) if you file a lawsuit for retaliation by the
Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, you may disclose a trade secret to your attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if you file any document containing the trade secret under seal and do not disclose the
trade secret except pursuant to court order.
Again, thank you for your many years of dedicated service to the Company and your agreement to assist the Company in its leadership transition.
Sincerely,
By: /s/ Kevin O’Donnell

Robert Qutub and Ross Curtis to Retire; Matthew Neuber to Become Chief Financial Officer in 2027
Pembroke, Bermuda, May 14, 2026 -- RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: RNR) (the
“Company” or “RenaissanceRe”) today announced that Robert “Bob” Qutub, Chief Financial Officer, and Ross Curtis, Chief Portfolio Officer, intend to retire on December 31, 2026.
Matthew Neuber, RenaissanceRe’s Senior Financial Officer and Corporate Treasurer, will succeed Mr. Qutub as Chief Financial Officer, effective January 1, 2027. He will remain Corporate Treasurer and will join RenaissanceRe’s Governance Committee. Mr. Neuber’s appointment to Chief Financial Officer reflects his significant contributions
to RenaissanceRe and is the outcome of the Company’s ongoing commitment to long-term succession planning. David Marra, RenaissanceRe’s Group Chief Underwriting Officer, will assume oversight of Mr. Curtis’ responsibilities in 2027.
Kevin O’Donnell, President and Chief Executive Officer, said: “Since Bob joined us in 2016, he has provided rigorous financial oversight as RenaissanceRe has grown rapidly,
including through two major acquisitions and geographic expansion. Over his tenure, Bob has evolved our investment portfolio and operations to reflect RenaissanceRe’s increased scale, and his financial acumen and leadership have helped drive greater
earnings diversification and financial resilience that have been integral to our success. We are deeply grateful for his contributions and wish him and his family all the best in his retirement.
“Matt brings a proven track record of financial leadership, with deep expertise in corporate finance and capital management. He has played a pivotal role in advancing our
strategy and has scaled our Treasury function in line with RenaissanceRe’s growth. His appointment reflects not only his individual strengths, but also the depth of internal talent we have developed across RenaissanceRe. I look forward to continuing
our work together as we drive long‑term value for our shareholders.”
Bob Qutub, Chief Financial Officer, said: “It has been an honor to be part of RenaissanceRe and to work alongside so many outstanding colleagues over the years. Having
worked closely with Matt over the past decade, I am delighted to see him assume this role. I have great confidence in his leadership, strategic insight and financial expertise.”
Mr. O’Donnell continued: “Over the past 27 years, Ross has helped shape the company we are today – from establishing our Syndicate 1458 to overseeing significant growth as
Group Chief Underwriting Officer and most recently advancing our leadership in portfolio construction and capital efficiency as Chief Portfolio Officer. Importantly, he made a lasting impact on our culture by exemplifying our values, championing
inclusion, and developing generations of talent. We thank Ross for his leadership and wish him and his family every happiness in his retirement.
“David has successfully grown RenaissanceRe’s portfolio as Chief Underwriting Officer, both organically and through the Validus acquisition, while maintaining our
collaborative, high‑performing underwriting culture. I am confident that he will build on his long track record of underwriting leadership in this expanded role, matching desirable
risk with capital and advancing our value proposition to customers at scale.”
Ross Curtis, Chief Portfolio Officer, said: “It has been a true privilege to be part of the RenaissanceRe team for nearly thirty years and to contribute to a business
defined by underwriting excellence and a strong, collaborative culture. I am proud of the company we have built and the deep client relationships we have fostered. I have every confidence that those enduring strengths will continue to distinguish
RenaissanceRe in the years ahead.”
To facilitate a smooth transition, Mr. Qutub will serve as a strategic advisor to the Company for a period of twelve months after his retirement and Mr. Curtis will serve
as a strategic advisor for six months.
