    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">THIS AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE (the &#8220;Agreement&#8221;) is made and entered into as of this 19<sup style="vertical-align: text-top; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller;">th</sup> day of July, 2019, by and among Kingstone Companies, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;), Kingstone Insurance Company (&#8220;KICO&#8221;, referred to collectively herein with the Company as &#8220;EMPLOYER&#8221;), and Dale A.
      Thatcher&#160; (&#8220;EMPLOYEE&#8221;).</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">WHEREAS, EMPLOYEE and the Company are parties to that certain Employment Agreement dated and effective as of January 1,
      2019 (the &#8220;Company Employment Agreement&#8221;) and EMPLOYEE and KICO are parties to that certain Employment Agreement dated and effective as of January 1, 2019 (together with the Company Employment Agreement, the &#8220;Employment Agreements&#8221;);</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">WHEREAS, in accordance the terms of the Employment Agreements, EMPLOYEE has given notice to EMPLOYER of his desire to
      retire and, in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreements, EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYEE have agreed that it is in the best interest of all parties that such retirement will become effective as of July19, 2019 (the &#8220;Separation Date&#8221;); and</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">WHEREAS, the purpose of this Agreement is to set forth the payments and benefits that will be provided to EMPLOYEE, and
      the obligations of the parties in connection with, EMPLOYEE&#8217;S termination of employment;</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt; margin-bottom: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;">FOR VALUABLE CONSIDERATION, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:</div>

          Employment</u>.&#160; EMPLOYER and EMPLOYEE agree that EMPLOYEE&#8217;S employment with EMPLOYER will cease effective on the Separation Date. On the Separation Date, EMPLOYEE shall be terminated from all positions, directorships and offices he holds with
        EMPLOYER, including but not limited to the position of President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the position of President and Chief Executive Officer of KICO. EMPLOYEE&#8217;s participation in all employee benefit plans of EMPLOYER,
        except as otherwise stated herein, will cease on the Separation Date. EMPLOYEE further agrees that he will not hereafter seek reinstatement, recall or reemployment with EMPLOYER.&#160; As required by the terms of the Employment Agreements, EMPLOYEE
        hereby covenants that he shall not accept any operating executive role with another property and casualty insurance company for a period of three (3) years following the Separation Date.&#160; For the avoidance of doubt, EMPLOYER acknowledges and agrees
        that any service to a property and casualty insurance company or other competitor shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or EMPLOYEE&#8217;s surviving restrictive covenants set forth in Section 7 of the Employment Agreements so long as such
        service is in an advisory, non-employee capacity (<font style="font-style: italic;">e.g.</font> as a director) and not as an employee or as a consultant tasked with an operational role and provided that the other requirements of the applicable
        restrictive covenants of Section 7 of the Employment Agreements are satisfied (<font style="font-style: italic;">e.g.</font> he complies with the confidentiality provisions).</font></div>
