PROXY STATEMENT
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

GENERAL INFORMATION
 
This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of Oxbridge Re Holdings Limited (the “Company”) of proxies for use at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (the “Meeting”) to be held at the Company’s office, Suite 201, 42 Edward Street, George Town, Cayman Islands on Friday, May 10, 2019 at 3:00 p.m. (local time), and at any and all adjournments or postponements thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. The Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders is included with this Proxy Statement for informational purposes and not as a means of soliciting your proxy.
 
This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card and Notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders are expected to be provided to shareholders on or about April 22, 2019.
 
Matters to be Voted Upon at the Meeting
 
You are being asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

To elect four directors to serve on the Board of Directors of the Company (our “Board”) until the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company in 2020 (“Proposal One”); and
 
2. 
To ratify the appointment of Hacker, Johnson & Smith, P.A., as the independent auditors of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 (“Proposal Two”).
 
Voting Procedures
 
As a shareholder of the Company, you have a right to vote on certain matters affecting the Company. The proposals that will be presented at the Meeting and upon which you are being asked to vote are discussed above. Each ordinary share of the Company you owned as of the record date, April 3, 2019, entitles you to one vote on each proposal presented at the Meeting, subject to certain provisions of our Third Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (our “Articles”), as described below under “Voting Securities and Vote Required.”
 
Methods of Voting
 
You may vote by mail, by telephone, over the Internet or in person at the Meeting.
 
Voting by Mail.   You may vote by signing the proxy card and returning it in the prepaid and addressed envelope enclosed with the proxy materials. If you vote by mail, we encourage you to sign and return the proxy card even if you plan to attend the Meeting so that your shares will be voted if you are unable to attend the Meeting.
 
Voting by Telephone.   To vote by telephone, please follow the instructions included on your proxy card. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to complete and mail a proxy card. Telephone voting is available through 11:59 p.m. (local time) on May 9, 2019, the day prior to the Meeting day.
 
Voting over the Internet. To vote over the Internet, please follow the instructions included on your proxy card. If you vote over the Internet, you do not need to complete and mail a proxy card. Internet voting is available through 11:59 p.m. (local time) on May 9, 2019, the day prior to the Meeting day.
 
Voting in Person at the Meeting.   If you attend the Meeting and plan to vote in person, we will provide you with a ballot at the Meeting. If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the shareholder of record and you have the right to vote in person at the Meeting. If your shares are held in the name of your broker or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name. As a beneficial owner, if you wish to vote at the Meeting, you will need to bring to the Meeting a legal proxy from your broker or other nominee authorizing you to vote those shares.

VOTING SECURITIES AND VOTE REQUIRED
 
As of April 3, 2019, the record date for the determination of persons entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting (the “Record Date”), 5,733,587 ordinary shares were issued and outstanding. The ordinary shares are our only class of equity securities outstanding and entitled to vote at the Meeting.
 
Subject to the provisions of the Articles, each ordinary share is entitled to one vote per share. However, under the Articles, the Board shall reduce the voting power of any holder that holds 9.9% or more of the total issued and outstanding ordinary shares (such person, a “9.9% Shareholder”) to the extent necessary such that the holder ceases to be a 9.9% Shareholder. In connection with this reduction, the voting power of the other shareholders of the Company may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Articles. Accordingly, certain holders of ordinary shares may be entitled to more than one vote per share subject to the 9.9% restriction in the event that our Board is required to make an adjustment on the voting power of any 9.9% Shareholder.
 
 
Voting Reduction
 
The applicability of the voting power reduction provisions to any particular shareholder depends on facts and circumstances that may be known only to the shareholder or related persons. Accordingly, we request that any holder of ordinary shares with reason to believe that it is a 9.9% Shareholder, contact us promptly so that we may determine whether the voting power of such holder’s ordinary shares should be reduced. By submitting a proxy, a holder of ordinary shares will be deemed to have confirmed that, to its knowledge, it is not, and is not acting on behalf of, a 9.9% Shareholder. The directors of the Company are empowered to require any shareholder to provide information as to that shareholder’s beneficial ownership of ordinary shares, the names of persons having beneficial ownership of the shareholder’s ordinary shares, relationships with other shareholders or any other facts the directors may consider relevant to the determination of the number of ordinary shares attributable to any person. The directors may disregard the votes attached to ordinary shares of any holder who fails to respond to such a request or who, in their judgment, submits incomplete or inaccurate information. The directors retain certain discretion to make such final adjustments that they consider fair and reasonable in all the circumstances as to the aggregate number of votes attaching to the ordinary shares of any shareholder to ensure that no person shall be a 9.9% Shareholder at any time.
 
Quorum; Vote Required
 
The attendance of two or more persons representing, in person or by proxy, more than 50% in par value of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares as of the Record Date, is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Meeting.
 
Assuming that a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the holders of a simple majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares voted at the Meeting is required for election of each of the director nominees in Proposal One and for the approval of Proposal Two.
 
With regard to any proposal or director nominee, votes may be cast in favor of or against such proposal or director nominee or a shareholder may abstain from voting on such proposal or director nominee. Abstentions will be excluded entirely from the vote and will have no effect except that abstentions and “broker non-votes” will be counted toward determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business.
 
Generally, broker non-votes occur when ordinary shares held by a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted on a particular proposal because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner, and the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular proposal.
 
Recommendation
 
Our Board recommends that the shareholders take the following actions at the Meeting:
 
1. 
Proposal One: to vote FOR the election of each of the four director nominees to serve on the Board until the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company in 2020; and
 
2. 
Proposal Two: to vote FOR the ratification of the appointment of Hacker, Johnson & Smith, P.A., as the independent auditors of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019.
 
SOLICITATION AND REVOCATION
 
Proxies must be received by us by 11:59 p.m. (local time) on May 9, 2019, the day prior to the Meeting day. A shareholder may revoke his or her proxy at any time up to one hour prior to the commencement of the Meeting.
 
To do this, you must:
 
   enter a new vote by telephone, over the Internet or by signing and returning another proxy card at a later date;
 
   file a written revocation with the Secretary of the Company at our address set forth above;
 
   file a duly executed proxy bearing a later date; or
 
   appear in person at the Meeting and vote in person.
 
 
2
 
 
A shareholder of record may revoke a proxy by any of these methods, regardless of the method used to deliver the shareholder’s previous proxy. If your ordinary shares are held in street name, you must contact your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee to revoke your proxy.
 
The individuals designated as proxies in the proxy card are officers of the Company.
 
All ordinary shares represented by properly executed proxies that are returned, and not revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions, if any, given thereon. If no instructions are provided in an executed proxy, it will be voted FOR the election of each director nominee named in Proposal One and FOR Proposal Two, and in accordance with the proxy holder’s best judgment as to any other business that may properly come before the Meeting. If a shareholder appoints a person other than the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy to represent him or her, such person should vote the shares in respect of which he or she is appointed proxy holder in accordance with the directions of the shareholder appointing him or her.
 
PROPOSAL ONE
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY
 
Our Articles currently provide that our Board shall consist of not less than four (4) directors (exclusive of alternate directors).

Our Board has no reason to believe that any of these director nominees will not continue to be a candidate or will not be able to serve as a director of the Company if elected. In the event that any nominee is unable to serve as a director, the proxy holders named in the accompanying proxy have advised that they will vote for the election of such substitute or additional nominee(s) as our Board may propose. Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the election of each of the nominees.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS
VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE DIRECTOR NOMINEES NAMED ABOVE.
 
PROPOSAL TWO
RATIFICATION OF THE COMPANY’S AUDITORS
 
Upon recommendation of the Audit Committee of the Company, our Board proposes that the shareholders ratify the appointment of Hacker, Johnson & Smith, P.A. (“Hacker Johnson”) to serve as the independent auditors of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. Hacker Johnson served as the independent auditors of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 through December 31, 2018.
 
Although ratification is not required by law, our Board believes that shareholders should be given the opportunity to express their views on the subject. In the event of a negative vote on such ratification, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection. Even if this appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.
 
We do not expect that a representative of Hacker Johnson will attend the Meeting.
 
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF HACKER
JOHNSON AS THE COMPANY’S AUDITOR.
 
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS
 
Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight
 
Our Company’s Board does not have a current requirement that the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board be either combined or separated because the Board believes it is in the best interest of our Company to make this determination based upon the position and direction of the Company and the constitution of the Board. The Board regularly evaluates whether the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board should be combined or separated.
 
Since the Company’s formation in 2013 through to December 31, 2017, the Company had bifurcated the positions of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Paresh Patel had served as Chairman of the Board since April 2013 through to his resignation in December 2017. Jay Madhu has served as Chief Executive Officer of the Company since April 2013, and took on the additional role of Chairman of the Board effective January 1, 2018.
 
Our independent directors have determined that the most effective leadership structure for our Company at the present time is for our Chief Executive Officer to also serve as our Chairman of the Board. Our independent directors believe that because our Chief Executive Officer is ultimately responsible for our day-to-day operations and for executing our business strategy, and because our performance is an integral part of the deliberations of our Board, our Chief Executive Officer is the director best qualified to act as Chairman of the Board. Our Board retains the authority to modify this structure to best address our unique circumstances, and so advance the best interests of all stockholders, as and when appropriate.
 
We have three independent directors and one non-independent director. We believe that the number of independent, experienced directors on our Board provides the necessary and appropriate oversight for our Company.
 
Management is primarily responsible for assessing and managing the Company’s exposure to risk. While risk assessment is management’s duty, the Audit Committee is responsible for discussing certain guidelines and policies with management that govern the process by which risk assessment and control is handled. The Audit Committee also reviews steps that management has taken to monitor the Company’s risk exposure. In addition, the Underwriting Committee approves and reviews our underwriting policies and guidelines, oversees our underwriting process and procedures, monitors our underwriting performance and oversees our underwriting risk management exposure. Management focuses on the risks facing the Company, while the Audit Committee and the Underwriting Committee focus on the Company’s general risk management strategies and oversee risks undertaken by the Company. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Our Board held four meetings in 2018. Each of our directors attended at least 80% of the meetings of the Board in 2018.
 
It is our policy that directors are expected to attend the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in the absence of a scheduling conflict or other valid reason. All of our directors attended our 2018 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
 
The Board has determined that (1) Jay Madhu does not qualify as an independent director under the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and (2) Krishna Persaud, Ray Cabillot and Mayur Patel qualify as independent directors under the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market and the SEC.
 
 
The Board has also determined that all of the current members of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee qualify as independent directors under the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market and SEC.
 
Below is a description of each committee of our Board.
 
Audit Committee
 
Our Audit Committee consists of three members – Ray Cabillot, Krishna Persaud and Mayur Patel. Each of these individuals meets all independence requirements for Audit Committee members set forth in applicable SEC rules and regulations and the applicable rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. Ray Cabillot serves as Chairman of our Audit Committee and qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as that term is defined in the rules and regulations established by the SEC.
 
The Audit Committee has general responsibility for the oversight of our accounting, reporting and financial control practices. The Audit Committee is governed by a written charter approved by our Board, which outlines its primary duties and responsibilities, and which can be found on our website at www.oxbridgere.com.
 
Compensation Committee
 
Our Compensation Committee currently consists of three members – Krishna Persaud, Mayur Patel and Ray Cabillot.

During 2018, we were party to a reinsurance contract with Claddaugh, a subsidiary of HCI Group. During 2018, on this reinsurance contract, we earned net premiums of $817 thousand.
 
Mr. Madhu is a director of HCI Group and previously served as the President of its real estate division and as its Vice President of Investor Relations. Paresh Patel, the non-executive Chairman of our Board through to December 31, 2017 and a beneficial owner of more than 5% of our ordinary shares, is a founder of HCI Group and currently serves as its Chief Executive Officer and as the Chairman of its board of directors. Both Mr. Madhu and Mr. Patel are also shareholders of HCI Group. However, neither of Mr. Madhu nor Mr. Patel have any interest in the reinsurance contracts between Claddaugh and our Company or between HCPCI and our Company other than in their capacity as equity holders of both of HCI Group and our Company.
 
Policies for Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons
 
Our policy for approval or ratification of transactions with related persons is for those transactions to be reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee. That policy is set forth in the Audit Committee Charter. Our practice is that such transactions are approved by a majority of disinterested directors. The policy sets forth no standards for approval. Directors apply their own individual judgment and discretion in deciding such matters.
 
OTHER MATTERS
 
Neither the Board nor management intends to bring before the Meeting any business other than the matters referred to in the Notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and this Proxy Statement. If any other business should come properly before the Meeting, or any adjournment or postponement thereof, the proxy holders will vote on such matters at their discretion.
 
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
 
Other Action at the Meeting
 
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Company has no knowledge of any business, other than as described herein and customary procedural matters, which will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. In the event any other business is properly presented at the Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy may, but will not be obligated to, vote such proxy in accordance with their judgment on such business.
 
Shareholder Proposals for the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in 2019
 
Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, shareholder proposals must be received in writing by the Secretary of the Company no later than 120 days prior to the date of the Company’s proxy statement released to shareholders in connection with the Company’s previous year’s annual general meeting of shareholders and must comply with the requirements of Cayman Islands corporate law and the Articles in order to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy relating to the annual general meeting of shareholders in 2020. Shareholder proposals received by December 24, 2019 would be considered timely for inclusion in the proxy statement relating to the 2020 annual general meeting of shareholders. Any shareholder proposal for the annual general meeting of shareholders in 2020, which is submitted outside the processes of Rule 14a-8, shall be considered untimely.
 
 12
Under our Articles, the Board shall call an extraordinary general meeting upon receipt of signed “Members’ requisition” by shareholders holding more than 66.66% in par value of the issued shares which as of that date carry the right to vote at an extraordinary general meeting of the Company. Such Members’ requisition must also contain the proposal to be considered at (i.e. objects of) the meeting and must be signed by the requisitionists and deposited at the registered office of the Company. If the Board does not, within twenty-one days from the date of the deposit of the Members’ requisition, duly proceed to convene an extraordinary general meeting to be held within a further twenty-one days, the requisitionists, or any of them representing more than one-half of the total voting rights of all the requisitionists, may themselves convene an extraordinary general meeting, but any meeting so convened shall be held no later than the day which falls three months after the expiration of the said twenty-one day period. Any extraordinary general meeting convened by the requisitionists shall be convened in the same manner as nearly possible as that in which extraordinary general meetings are convened by the Board.
 
Delivery of Documents to Shareholders Sharing an Address
 
Some companies, brokers, banks and other holders of record may employ procedures, approved by the SEC, known as “householding.” Householding, which reduces costs associated with duplicate printings and mailings, means that we will send only one copy of our proxy materials to shareholders who share the same address. Shareholders sharing the same address will continue to receive separate proxy cards.
