Under the current program, each non-employee Board member receives an annual cash retainer of $65,000, each Board committee chair receives an annual cash retainer ranging from $10,000 to $20,000, and each Board committee member receives an annual cash retainer ranging from $9,000 to $14,000. Historically, the non-employee director compensation program has also included a grant of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) to continuing directors after each Annual Meeting of Stockholders with a grant date fair value of $85,000. For non-employee directors who have joined the Board between annual meetings, the Human Capital Management and Compensation Committee of the Board (the &#8220;Compensation Committee&#8221;) has historically made a grant of RSUs in an amount that takes into consideration the length of time that the new Board member will serve between annual meetings. The Compensation Committee intends to meet at a later date to consider granting Mr. Sorenson an award of RSUs on a similar basis.</span></div><div style="margin-bottom:6pt;margin-top:3pt;text-align:justify"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Sorenson and any other person pursuant to which he was named a director of EHI.

Section 5 - Corporate Governance and Management
Item 5.02.    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(i)    On February 15, 2024, Employers Holdings, Inc. ("EHI") announced that, effective as of March 1, 2024, Steven P.  Sorenson has been appointed as a member of the EHI Board of Directors (the "Board"). Mr. Sorenson will serve on the Board and has been appointed to the Human Capital Management and Compensation Committee and the Risk Management, Technology and Innovation Committee. With Mr. Sorenson's appointment, the Board will increase to 10 members.
Mr. Sorenson, age 59, retired from the Allstate Corporation after serving in various senior leadership roles, most recently as Executive Vice President of Corporate Business Transformation from 2020 to April 2023 and as Executive Vice President of Operations from 2017 to 2020. He joined Allstate in 2000. Mr. Sorenson currently serves on the boards of YMCA of Metropolitan Chicago, where he serves as Chair, and One Hope United, a multistate nonprofit that helps children and families build the skills to live life without limits. Mr. Sorenson earned a master's degree in business administration (finance and strategy) from the University of Chicago in 1992 and a bachelor's degree in economics from Harvard University in 1987.
Mr. Sorenson will participate in the non-employee director compensation program at EHI. Under the current program, each non-employee Board member receives an annual cash retainer of $65,000, each Board committee chair receives an annual cash retainer ranging from $10,000 to $20,000, and each Board committee member receives an annual cash retainer ranging from $9,000 to $14,000. Historically, the non-employee director compensation program has also included a grant of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) to continuing directors after each Annual Meeting of Stockholders with a grant date fair value of $85,000. For non-employee directors who have joined the Board between annual meetings, the Human Capital Management and Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee") has historically made a grant of RSUs in an amount that takes into consideration the length of time that the new Board member will serve between annual meetings. The Compensation Committee intends to meet at a later date to consider granting Mr. Sorenson an award of RSUs on a similar basis.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Sorenson and any other person pursuant to which he was named a director of EHI. Mr. Sorenson has no family relationship with EHI's directors or executive officers, or any persons nominated or chosen by EHI to be a director or executive officer. Mr. Sorenson has not entered any other material plan, contract, arrangement or amendment in connection with his appointment to the Board.
Mr. Sorenson is not a party to any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
On February 15, 2024, EHI issued a press release regarding the appointment of Mr. Sorenson to the Board. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
(ii)    On February 13, 2024, Prasanna G. Dhoré notified the Board that he will not seek re-election to the Board at EHI's 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2024 Annual Meeting"). As a result, Mr. Dhoré's service on the Board will conclude immediately following the 2024 Annual Meeting. Mr. Dhoré has served as a director of EHI since 2015. EHI is profoundly grateful for Mr. Dhoré's distinguished service to our company and stockholders.
Mr. Dhoré has informed the Board that he does not have any disagreement with EHI on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices.
