Silver State Bancorp Announces Appointment of Phillip C. Peckman to Its Audit Committee and Compliance with Nasdaq Audit Committee Composition Requirements

Mr. Peckman currently serves as the Company's Acting Chairman of the Board of Directors and satisfies the qualifications, including the independence requirements, necessary to serve as a member of the Company's Audit Committee. Mr. Peckman had previously served on the Audit Committee prior to the Company's public offering in 2007.

As previously announced, as a result of the recent resignation of Andrew K. McCain, the Company was not in compliance with the audit committee composition requirements as set forth in Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") Marketplace Rule 4350, which requires a listed company to have an audit committee of at least three independent members. The Company is now in full compliance with Nasdaq audit committee composition requirements.
