</B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are a vertically integrated insurance holding company performing all aspects of insurance underwriting, distribution and claims.
Through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Universal Property&nbsp;&amp; Casualty Insurance Company and American Platinum Property and Casualty Insurance Company, we are principally engaged in the property and casualty insurance business
offered primarily through a network of independent agents. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our criteria for accepting insurance risk includes, but are not limited to,
common industry underwriting standards such as, defined coverage limitations on buildings and contents and risk condition. Also, to manage exposure and risk, we utilize standard industry catastrophe modeling techniques for hurricane and windstorm
exposure. Our primary product is homeowners&#146; insurance, which we currently offer in seven states including Florida, which represented 93% of the 536&nbsp;thousand policies-in-force as of December&nbsp;31, 2013, and 96% of the 567&nbsp;thousand
policies-in-force as of December&nbsp;31, 2012. Approximately 98% of our policies in force as of December&nbsp;31, 2013 and 2012 included wind coverage. With respect to geographic distribution of business within Florida as of December&nbsp;31, 2013
and 2012, 27% and 28%, respectively, of the policies-in-force are in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties. Risk from catastrophic losses is managed through the use of reinsurance agreements. We generate revenue primarily from the collection
of premiums and the investment of available funds in excess of those retained for claims-paying obligations and insurance operations. Other significant sources of revenue include commissions collected from reinsurers and policy fees. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our overall investment objective is to maximize total rate of return while maintaining liquidity and minimizing risk. Our investment strategy
includes maintaining investments to support unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses for our insurance subsidiaries in accordance with guidelines established by insurance regulators. Our operating results are dependent in part upon the results of
our investment portfolio. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on November&nbsp;13, 1990 as Universal Heights,
Inc. We changed our name to Universal Insurance Holdings, Inc. on January&nbsp;12, 2001. Our common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol &#147;UVE.&#148; </P>

supplement to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. In addition, the selling stockholder may loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus
supplement. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in the shares or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities. Shares of common stock may also be exchanged for
satisfaction of the selling stockholder&#146;s obligations or other liabilities to his creditors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The selling stockholder might not sell

provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of common stock by the selling stockholder or any other person. We will make copies of this

and contents and required compliance with local building codes. Also, to improve underwriting and manage risk, we utilize standard industry modeling techniques for hurricane and windstorm exposure. Our primary product is homeowners&#146; insurance
currently offered in seven states, including Florida, which represented 96% of the 574&nbsp;thousand <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">policies-in-force</FONT></FONT> as of September&nbsp;30, 2012, and 98% of the

catastrophic losses is managed through the use of reinsurance agreements. We generate revenues primarily from the collection of premiums and the investment of funds in excess of those retained for claims-paying obligations and insurance operations.
Other significant sources of revenue include commissions collected from reinsurers and policy fees. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our investment strategy

records. Beneficial owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchases, but beneficial owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transactions, as well as periodic statements of their
holdings, from the direct or indirect participants through which they purchased the debt securities. Transfers of ownership interests in debt securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of participants acting on behalf of

redemption price per share payable with respect to the series of the preferred stock. If we redeem shares of a series of preferred stock held by the depositary, the depositary will redeem as of the same redemption date the number of depositary
shares representing the shares of preferred stock so redeemed. If less than all the depositary shares are to be redeemed, the depositary shares to be redeemed will be selected by lot or substantially equivalent method determined by the depositary.

redemption, upon surrender to the depositary of the depositary receipts evidencing the depositary shares. Any funds deposited by us with the depositary for any depositary shares that the holders thereof fail to redeem will be returned to us after a

record date for the related series of preferred stock) will be entitled to instruct the depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights pertaining to the number of shares of the series of preferred stock represented by that holder&#146;s
depositary shares. The depositary will endeavor, insofar as practicable, to vote or cause to be voted the number of shares of preferred stock represented by the depositary shares in accordance with the instructions, provided the depositary receives
the instructions sufficiently in advance of the meeting to enable it to so vote or cause to be voted the shares of preferred stock, and we will agree to take all reasonable action that may be deemed necessary by the depositary in order to enable the
depositary to do so. The depositary will abstain from voting shares of the preferred stock to the extent it does not receive specific instructions from the holders of depositary shares representing the preferred stock. </FONT></P>
