Employment Agreement

Meryl Golden, President and Chief Executive Officer

On April 17, 2026, the Company and Ms. Golden entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the “Fourth Amended Golden Employment Agreement”). The Fourth Amended Golden Employment Agreement is effective as of January 11, 2027 and expires on January 10, 2029. The Fourth Amended Golden Employment Agreement extends the expiration date of the Third Amended Golden Employment Agreement from January 10, 2027 to January 10, 2029.

Pursuant to the Fourth Amended Golden Employment Agreement, Ms. Golden is entitled to receive an annual base salary of $550,000 (the same as currently in effect) and an annual bonus equal to 3% of the Company’s consolidated income from operations before taxes,

exclusive of the Company’s consolidated net investment income (loss), net unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities and net realized gains (losses) on investments, up to a maximum of 1.25 times her base annual salary (the same as currently in effect). Pursuant to the Fourth Amended Golden Employment Agreement (and as provided for in the Third Amended Golden Employment Agreement), in the event that Ms. Golden’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or she resigns for good reason (each as defined in the Fourth Amended Golden Employment Agreement), Ms. Golden would be entitled to receive her base salary and the 3% bonus for the remainder of the term. Ms. Golden would be entitled, under certain circumstances, to a payment equal to 1.5 times her then annual salary and her accrued 3% bonus in the event of the termination of her employment following a change of control of the Company (also as is provided for in the Third Amended Golden Employment Agreement). Pursuant to the Fourth Amended Golden Employment Agreement, Ms. Golden will be entitled to receive, under certain circumstances, a grant, during each of January 2027 and January 2028, of 40,000 shares of restricted stock. The 2027 grant will become vested with respect to one-half of the award on each of the first and second anniversaries of the grant date. The 2028 grant will become vested on the first anniversary of the grant date. The above grants are generally consistent with the grants provided for in the Third Amended Golden Employment Agreement. In the event that the Company is precluded from making a grant to Ms. Golden in either 2027 or 2028, she would instead be entitled to a cash bonus for such year equal to 40,000 multiplied by the common stock market price at the time.

Dividend Declared

On April 27, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.05 per share payable in cash on May 26, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 11, 2026 (see Note 8 – Stockholders’ Equity).

Kingstone America Insurance Company

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Kingstone America Insurance Company ("KAIC"), was licensed to write property and casualty insurance by the state of Connecticut on May 1, 2026. We expect KAIC to begin writing policies in the latter part of 2026.
