Greenlight and Mr. Einhorn are referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons.” This Amendment modifies the original Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 11, 2004, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on September 2, 2004, Amendment No. 2 filed on January 18, 2005, Amendment No. 3 filed on April 8, 2005, Amendment No. 4 filed on April 15, 2005, Amendment No. 5 filed on August 2, 2005, Amendment No. 6 filed on October 18, 2005 and Amendment No. 7 filed on December 1, 2006.
This Amendment relates to Class A Subordinated Voting Shares, no par value (the “Class A Shares”), of MI Developments Inc., a Canadian company (“MID” or the “Issuer”), owned by Greenlight LLC for the account of (A) Greenlight Capital, L.P., of which Greenlight LLC is the general partner and Greenlight Capital Qualified, L.P., of which Greenlight LLC is the general partner, and (B) the Class A Shares purchased by Greenlight Inc. for the account of Greenlight Capital Offshore, Ltd., for which Greenlight Inc. is the investment advisor. This Amendment also relates to the Class A Shares purchased by affiliates of Greenlight for the accounts of (i) Greenlight Masters, LP, (ii) Greenlight Masters Qualified, LP, (iii) Greenlight Masters Offshore, Ltd., (iv) Greenlight Masters Offshore I, Ltd., (v) Greenlight Masters Offshore Partners, L.P. and (vi) a managed account for which an affiliate of Greenlight acts as investment manager (collectively, the “Affiliates”).

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following:
On March 7, 2008, the Reporting Persons submitted a shareholder proposal to MID to be included in MID’s proxy circular. Greenlight proposes that the MID Board implement its own recommendations from the 2005 annual meeting. A copy of the shareholder proposal is attached as an exhibit hereto.

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(a) Greenlight LLC is the beneficial owner of 2,234,000 Class A Shares. Greenlight Inc. is the beneficial owner of 2,466,000 Class A Shares. Mr. Einhorn, as the principal of Greenlight and the Affiliates is the beneficial owner of 4,975,000 Class A Shares.

As the principal of Greenlight and the Affiliates, Mr. Einhorn may direct the vote and disposition of 4,975,000 Class A Shares beneficially owned by Greenlight and the Affiliates.
