HCI GROUP, INC.

OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD CONTRACT 

Mark Harmsworth 
 101 West Beach Place 

Unit 1700 
 Tampa, Florida 33606 

Dear Mr. Harmsworth: 
 You have been granted a Restricted
Stock award for shares of common stock of HCI Group, Inc. (the “Company”) under the HCI Group, Inc. 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) with the following terms and conditions. For the purposes of this contract
“Restricted Shares” means Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to the Plan and this contract. 
  

			
	Grant Date:	  	December 5, 2016
		
	Number of Shares:	  	40,000 Shares
		
	Vesting Schedule:	  	Your Restricted Shares will initially be subject to a Restriction Period. The Restriction Period will lapse and the Restricted Shares will vest as follows:
		
		  	 One-fourth of your Restricted Shares on December 5, 2017, one-fourth on December 5, 2018, one-fourth on December 5, 2019 and the remaining shares on December 5, 2020. Fractional shares will be rounded down to the
nearest whole number until the last vesting date.

		
		  	If your service to the Company ends for any reason other than (i) a termination for “Good Cause” as described in your employment agreement, (ii) Retirement, (iii) death or (iv) Disability, then for one-fourth of the Restricted Shares (if any remain) the Restriction Period will lapse and those Restricted Shares will vest. For clarity, this provision supersedes the terms “Cause” and “Inimical
“Conduct” as defined in the Plan and as they relate to the vesting or forfeiture of your Restricted Shares.
		
		  	All your Restricted Shares will vest and the Restriction Period will lapse upon a Change of Control as defined in the Plan.
		
		  	The lapse of your Restriction Period and vesting may be suspended or delayed as a result of a leave of absence.









			
	Form of Issuance:	  	The Company will instruct its transfer agent to evidence the Restricted Shares by electronic entry on the transfer agent’s books and to indicate the Restriction Period (and any other restrictions the Company may require to
ensure compliance with the Securities Act and state and other securities laws) and the risks of forfeiture within those book entries. Upon the lapse of a Restriction Period, provided you have paid applicable withholding taxes, the Company will
instruct the transfer agent to deliver the applicable shares, without restriction, to a brokerage account established in your name.
		
	Transferability of Restricted Shares:	  	You may not assign, sell, transfer, pledge, encumber or otherwise alienate or hypothecate any of your Restricted Shares until they are vested. In addition, by accepting this Award, you agree not to sell any Restricted Shares
acquired under this Award at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or any agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibits a sale. You will not sell your shares except during an open trading window as described in the
Company’s Insider Trading Policy.
		
	Forfeiture	  	Unvested Restricted Shares will be forfeited when your service to the Company ends. Forfeiture may also occur under other circumstances described in the Plan.
		
	Voting and Dividends:	  	You may exercise full voting rights and will receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to the Restricted Shares, in each case so long as the applicable record date occurs before you forfeit such Shares. If,
however, any such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, such Shares will be subject to the same risk of forfeiture, restrictions on transferability and other terms of this Award as are the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were
paid. Dividends on unvested Restricted Shares will be treated as wages for federal income tax purposes and will therefore be subject to federal income tax, Social Security tax, and Medicare tax withholdings.
		
	Tax Withholding:	  	You understand that you (and not the Company or any Affiliate) will be responsible for your own federal, state, local or foreign tax liability and any of your other tax consequences that may arise as a result of the transactions
contemplated by this Award. You shall rely solely on the determinations of your tax advisors or your own determinations, and not on any statements or representations by the Company, its Affiliates or any of their agents, with regard to all such tax
matters. You may be able to alter the tax consequences of the acquisition of the Shares by filing an election









			
		  	under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Such election may be filed only within thirty (30) days after the date of this Award. You should consult with your tax advisor
to determine the tax consequences of acquiring the Shares and the advantages and disadvantages of filing the Code Section 83(b) election. You acknowledge that it is your sole responsibility, and not the Company’s, to file a timely election
under Code Section 83(b), even if you request the Company or its representatives make this filing on your behalf.
		
		  	To the extent that the receipt of the Restricted Stock or the vesting of the Restricted Stock results in income to you for Federal, state or local income tax purposes, you shall surrender to the Company (or any Affiliate) at the
time the Company (or its Affiliate) is obligated to withhold taxes in connection with such receipt or vesting, as the case may be, such number of Restricted Shares as the Company (or its Affiliate) requires to meet its withholding obligation under
applicable tax laws or regulations, and if you fail to do so, the Company (and its Affiliate) has the right and authority to deduct or withhold from other compensation payable to you an amount sufficient to satisfy its withholding obligations. You
will surrender that number of Restricted Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that the Company (or its Affiliate) must withhold in connection with the vesting
of such Shares. The Company, in its discretion, may permit a larger number of shares to be surrendered in connection with tax withholding.
		
	Miscellaneous:	  	 •    This Restricted Stock Award may be amended only by written
consent signed by you and the Company, except if the amendment is not to your detriment or as otherwise permitted by the terms of the Plan.

		
		  	 •    As a condition of the granting of this Award, you agree, for
yourself and your legal representatives or guardians, that this contract and the Plan shall be interpreted by the Committee and that any interpretation by the Committee of the terms of this contract or the Plan and any determination made by the
Committee pursuant to this contract or the Plan shall be final, binding and conclusive.

		
		  	 •    This contract may be executed in counterparts.
