On February 12, 2020, Geoffrey I. Miller resigned as a member of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Palomar Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"). Mr. Miller's decision to resign was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies, or practices.

On February 12, 2020, the Board appointed Martha Notaras as a Class II director of the Company effective immediately, to serve until the Company's 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and until her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until her earlier death, resignation or removal. The Board of Directors will consider Ms. Notaras' assignment to one or more Board committees when it next reviews committee assignments.

There were no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Notaras and any other persons pursuant to which she was elected as a director, and there are no related persons transactions (within the meaning of Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission) between Ms. Notaras and the Company required to be disclosed herein.

Ms. Notaras was granted an initial award of 125 restricted stock units ("RSUs") and an option to purchase 1,722 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $58.06 per share (the "Option"). The RSUs will vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date and the Option will vest 50% on the first anniversary of the grant date and in twelve (12) equal monthly instalments thereafter, each subject to Ms. Notaras' continuous service.

The Company will enter into an indemnification agreement with Ms. Notaras for her service as a director of the Company, consistent with the form of the Company's indemnity agreement entered into with its other directors and filed as an exhibit to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2019.
