PMA Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: PMACA) (the “Company”) today announced that its Board of Directors determined that if the Company’s shareholders vote to approve the Section 382 Shareholder Rights Plan dated as of August 6, 2009 (the “Rights Plan”) at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May 5, 2010 (the “Approval Date”), the Board will promptly amend the Rights Plan to require that it be submitted to the shareholders for their approval every three years following the Approval Date for so long as the Rights Plan remains in effect. The proposal to approve the Rights Plan is set forth in the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which was mailed to the Company’s shareholders on or about March 30, 2010.

The Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Rights Plan in order to protect the Company’s ability to use its net operating loss carry forwards to reduce potential future federal income tax obligations. The Rights Plan will expire on August 6, 2010 if shareholder approval of the Rights Plan is not obtained before then.
