<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Fort Lauderdale, FL, March&nbsp;25, 2014 - Universal Insurance Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: UVE)</B> announced today that it has repurchased an additional 550,000
shares of the Company&#146;s common stock from Bradley I. Meier, the Company&#146;s former Chief Executive Officer, at approximately $13.16 per share, in a privately negotiated transaction. As previously disclosed, the Company has a right of first
refusal to purchase shares of the Company&#146;s common stock offered for sale by Mr.&nbsp;Meier through December&nbsp;31, 2014. The repurchase price represents a discount of approximately 12 percent from the March&nbsp;7, 2014 closing price of the
Company&#146;s common stock. The Company will finance the share repurchase using cash on hand. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Additionally, the Company announced that it has waived its
right of first refusal to an additional 1,100,000 shares of common stock owned by Mr.&nbsp;Meier, who has informed the Company that he sold those shares in a separate privately negotiated transaction. As a result of these transactions,
Mr.&nbsp;Meier now owns less than 5 percent of the Company&#146;s outstanding common stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sean P. Downes, the Company&#146;s Chairman, President and
Chief Executive Officer, stated, &#147;This share repurchase represents another significant step forward in our ongoing efforts to generate increasing returns for shareholders.&nbsp;As a result of the collective transactions negotiated with
Mr.&nbsp;Meier over the past twelve months, we have reduced the Company&#146;s shares of common stock outstanding in an orderly manner and at a discount to prevailing market prices. Furthermore, the sale of an additional large block of
Mr.&nbsp;Meier&#146;s shares in a privately negotiated transaction has increased liquidity in our stock while mitigating volatility for existing shareholders.&#148; </P>
