2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan

At the 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of United Insurance Holdings Corp. (the Company) on May 17, 2013 (the 2013 Annual Meeting), stockholders approved the Company's 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the 2013 Plan). The 2013 Plan has two complementary purposes: (i) to attract, retain, focus and motivate executives and other selected employees, directors, consultants and advisors and (ii) to increase shareholder value. In furtherance of these objectives, the 2013 Plan will offer participants the opportunity to acquire shares of the Company's common stock, receive monetary payments based on the value of such common stock or receive other incentive compensation on the terms provided in the 2013 Plan.

The 2013 Plan permits the grant of stock options (including incentive stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, annual cash incentives, long-term cash incentives, dividend equivalent units and other types of stock-based awards, as described in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement for the 2013 Annual Meeting, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 16, 2013 (the 2013 Proxy Statement).

The full text of the 2013 Plan was filed as Appendix A to the 2013 Proxy Statement, and is incorporated herein by reference.
