On November 3, 2021, Colleen Sullivan notified Silvergate Capital Corporation (the "Company") of her resignation from the boards of directors (the “Boards”) of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Silvergate Bank (the “Bank”), as well as from any committees of such Boards on which she served, effective as of November 6, 2021. Ms. Sullivan advised the Company that she has accepted an executive position at another company and is resigning due to her new commitments. Ms. Sullivan’s resignation was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company, the Bank or the Boards on any matter relating to the operations, policies or practices of the Company or Bank.
In connection with the resignation of Ms. Sullivan, the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will commence a search for a qualified director candidate to fill the Boards’ vacancies, taking into consideration the need for continued diversity on the Boards.
