Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by NI Holdings, Inc.

At the time of the filing of the Original Form 8-K, the Company’s Board of Directors had not yet determined the terms of Ms. Launer’s compensation in connection with her appointment as Chief Executive Officer. The Company is filing this Amendment to disclose Ms. Launer’s compensation for her service as Chief Executive Officer.
