(d) | The Peer Group TSR, as defined below, set forth in this table utilizes the NASDAQ Insurance Index, which we also utilize in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022. The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting December 31, 2019, through the end of the listed year in the Global Indemnity and in the NASDAQ Insurance Index, respectively. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.
(e) | We determined underwriting income to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Global Indemnity performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our PEOs and Non-PEO NEOs for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Underwriting income equals earned premiums less losses, loss adjustment expenses, commission expenses and other underwriting expenses. Underwriting income may not have been the most important financial performance measure for fiscal years 2021 and 2020 and we may determine a different financial performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future years.
