Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter (the “Letter Agreement”) sets forth the commitment of GSO Capital Partners LP (“GSO”), on the terms and subject to the conditions described below, to purchase, or cause the purchase of, preferred equity (the “Preferred Equity”) of CF Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted corporation (“CF Corp”). It is contemplated that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Share Purchase Agreement”) entered into concurrently herewith by and among HRG Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Halo”), Front Street Re (Delaware) Ltd., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Halo (“Seller”), FGL US Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), CF Corp, Front Street Re (Cayman) Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“Cayman Co”) and Front Street Re Ltd., an exempted company incorporated in Bermuda with limited liability (“Bermuda Co”), Buyer will acquire Cayman Co and Bermuda Co. Each capitalized term used but not defined in this Letter Agreement will have the meaning ascribed to it in the Share Purchase Agreement, except as otherwise provided below.

1.          Commitment.

(a)          GSO hereby commits, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Letter Agreement, at the Closing, to purchase, or cause the purchase of, Preferred Equity for an aggregate cash purchase price equal to (x) $9,000,000 plus (y) the amount of net redemptions of CF Corp stock (i.e., the aggregate amount paid, or required to be paid, by CF Corp to redeem shares of its stock) on or after the date hereof and prior to the Closing, up to an aggregate amount of $16,000,000 (the result of (x) plus (y), the “Commitment”), solely for the purpose of allowing Buyer to pay the Closing Date Purchase Price, the Transaction Expenses and costs and expenses (including fees and expenses payable to Representatives) incurred by Buyer in connection with the Share Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. GSO will not, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute more than the Commitment to CF Corp; provided that the foregoing shall not limit the obligations under (i) the Forward Purchase Agreement among CF Corp, CFS Holdings (Cayman), L.P. and CF Capital Growth, LLC, (ii) the Equity Commitment Letter between CF Corp and Blackstone Fund and (iii) the Equity Commitment Letter among Blackstone Fund, Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and CF Corp.

(b)          GSO may effect the purchase of the Preferred Equity directly or indirectly through one or more affiliated entities or other co-investors designated by it; however, no such action will reduce the amount of the Commitment or otherwise affect the obligations of GSO under this Letter Agreement. In the event that CF Corp does not require all of the Preferred Equity with respect to which GSO has made this Commitment in order to pay the Closing Date Purchase Price and the Transaction Expenses, the amount to be funded under this Letter Agreement may be reduced as determined by GSO.

(c)          The obligation of GSO to fund or cause the funding of the Commitment shall be subject to (i) the satisfaction (or waiver by Buyer) of the conditions set forth in Section 8.01(a) and (b) of the Share Purchase Agreement (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing) and (ii) the substantially concurrent consummation of the Closing in accordance with the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement.

2.          Enforceability. This Letter Agreement may only be enforced by CF Corp at the direction of GSO, and nothing set forth in this Letter Agreement shall be construed to confer upon or give to Seller or any other Person (including CF Corp’s and Seller’s direct and indirect creditors), other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights to enforce the Commitment or to cause CF Corp to enforce the Commitment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Letter Agreement, if Seller is entitled to specific performance in accordance with Section 11.12 of the Share Purchase Agreement to cause the Closing to occur, Seller may enforce CF Corp’s right to cause the Commitment to be funded (solely to the extent that CF Corp can enforce the Commitment in accordance with the terms hereof) without the direction of GSO, and in such event and solely to such extent Seller will be a third party beneficiary of CF Corp’s rights under this Letter Agreement. The exercise by CF Corp or Seller of any right to enforce this Letter Agreement does not give rise to any other remedies, monetary or otherwise. Whether or not Seller is entitled to enforce the Commitment in accordance with this Section 2, in the event the Commitment is not funded in accordance with the terms of this Letter Agreement, neither CF Corp, Seller, nor any other Person shall have, and no Person is intended to have, any right of recovery against GSO in respect of any liabilities or obligations arising under, or in connection with, this Letter Agreement or the Share Purchase Agreement (including in the event CF Corp breaches its obligations under the Share Purchase Agreement and whether or not CF Corp’s breach is caused by GSO’s breach of its obligations under this Letter Agreement), except to the extent expressly set forth in this Section 2.

3.          No Modification; Entire Agreement. This Letter Agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of CF Corp and GSO. Any such amendment shall be subject to Seller’s written consent to the extent required under the Share Purchase Agreement. This Letter Agreement constitutes the sole agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and statements, written or oral, between GSO or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and CF Corp or any of its Affiliates, on the other, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (other than the Share Purchase Agreement, the Information Letter Agreement by and among the Blackstone Fund, CF Corp and Seller (the “Blackstone Information Letter Agreement”), the Equity Commitment Letter between CF Corp and Blackstone Fund, the Equity Commitment Letter among Blackstone Fund, Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and CF Corp, the Forward Purchase Agreement among CF Corp, CFS Holdings (Cayman), L.P. and CF Capital Growth, LLC and the other agreements expressly referred to herein or therein as being entered into in connection with the Share Purchase Agreement).
