The author considers an infinite random matrix \(R = (R_{i,j})_{i,j\geq 1}\), which is symmetric, nonnegative definite and weakly exchangeable, with \(R_{1,1}= 1\) and nondiagonal elements take only a finite number of values, \[ \mathbb{P}(R_{1,2} = q_i) =m_{i+1} -m_i \] for \(1\leq i\leq k\) and for some \(-1\leq q_1 < q_2 < \cdots< q_k\leq 1\) and \(0 = m_1 < \cdots <m_k < m_{k+1} = 1\). The main result of the paper is the following: if above determined matrix satisfies the Ghirlanda-Guerra identity, then \(R\) is ultrametric, i.e. \[ \mathbb{P}(R_{2,3}\geq\min\{R_{1,2},R_{1,3}\})=1. \]
