Forward-Looking Statements

This proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) of Hagerty, Inc. ("we", "our", "us", "Hagerty", or the "Company") contains

statements that constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of

  1. Forward-looking statements are statements about future events and expectations, and they involve risks and

uncertainties. All statements contained in this Proxy Statement other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking

statements, including statements regarding our future operating results and financial position, our business strategy and

plans, products, services, and technology implementations, market conditions, growth and trends, expansion plans and

opportunities, and our objectives for future operations. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as

"anticipate," "believe," "envision," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "predict," "project," "target," "potential," "will,"

"would," "could," "should," "continue," "ongoing," "contemplate," and other similar expressions, and the negative of these

expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Factors that could cause actual

results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements include, among other things, our

ability to: compete effectively within our industry and attract and retain our insurance policyholders and paid Hagerty

Drivers Club subscribers; maintain key strategic relationships with our insurance distribution and underwriting carrier

partners; prevent, monitor, and detect fraudulent activity; manage risks associated with disruptions, interruptions, outages

or other issues with our technology platforms or our use of third-party services; accelerate the adoption of our membership

products as well as any new insurance programs and products we offer; successfully implement the new Markel fronting

arrangement and realize the anticipated benefits while also managing the increased exposure to underwriting volatility,

catastrophes, reinsurance counterparty risk, and legal, compliance and regulatory risks; underwrite and price new

products, including Enthusiast+, consistent with expected loss ratios and risk tolerances; execute Broad Arrow Group’s

private sale, auction, and financing strategies; manage the cyclical nature of the insurance business and broader

macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, interest rates, and potential recessionary pressures; achieve our investment

objectives and avoid losses in our investment portfolio; address unexpected increases in the frequency or severity of

claims catastrophe losses; and comply with the numerous laws and regulations applicable to our business, including state,

federal and foreign laws relating to insurance and rate increases, privacy and cybersecurity, marketing and advertising,

digital services, accounting matters, tax, artificial intelligence, anti-money laundering, economic sanctions, and the

internet. For a discussion of these and other factors that may affect our business, see the risk factors described under

"Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and in our

subsequent filings with the SEC.

You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We operate in a very competitive and

rapidly changing environment and new risks emerge from time to time. The forward-looking statements in this Proxy

Statement represent our views as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking

statements for any reason after the date of this Proxy Statement.
