6. TERMINATION PAYMENTS

In the event of termination of the employment of Employee, all compensation and benefits set forth in this Agreement shall terminate except as specifically provided in this Section 6:

If Safeco terminates Employee’s employment without Cause, Employee shall receive (a) termination payments equal to one year’s annual base salary (at the annual rate then in effect), and (b) any unpaid annual base salary that has accrued for services already performed as of the date termination of Employee’s employment becomes effective. If Employee is terminated by Safeco for Cause, Employee shall not be entitled to receive any of the foregoing benefits, other than those set forth in clause (b) above. Except as provided above, Employee’s rights upon termination of employment will be governed by Safeco’s standard policy and practice, or as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof.

At the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, Employee may be placed on paid administrative leave and relieved of all employment responsibilities upon issuance of the notice. Employee shall have 15 days after receiving such notice in which to cure such grounds, to the extent such cure is possible. If he fails to cure such grounds, Employee shall then be entitled to a hearing before the Board of Directors. Such hearing shall be held within 20 days of his receiving such notice, provided that he requests such hearing within 15 days of receiving such notice. If, within five days following such hearing, the Board of Directors gives written notice to Employee confirming that, in the judgment of at least

-5-

two-thirds of the members of the Board of Directors (excluding Employee), Cause for terminating his employment on the basis set forth in the original notice exists, his employment with Safeco shall thereupon be terminated for Cause.

6.4 Termination in Connection With a Change in Control

Safeco and Employee previously executed a Change in Control Severance Agreement (the “Change in Control Agreement”), a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. In circumstances constituting a Change in Control, as defined in the Change in Control Agreement, Employee’s rights upon termination of employment will be governed by the terms of the Change in Control Agreement, and this Section 6 will be null and void.

6.5 Payment Schedule

All payments under this Section 6 shall be made to Employee at the same interval as payments of salary were made to Employee immediately prior to termination.

6.6 Cause

(a) Failure or refusal to carry out the lawful duties of Employee described in Section 1 of this Agreement or any directions of the Board of Directors of Safeco or any committee of the Board, which directions are reasonably consistent with the duties herein set forth to be performed by Employee (other than as a result of illness, accident, or other physical or mental incapacity), provided that (i) a demand for performance of services has been delivered to Employee in writing by or on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company subsequent to the completion of the procedures set forth in Section 6.3 identifying the manner in which such Board of Directors believes that Employee has failed to perform and (ii) Employee has thereafter failed to remedy such failure to perform;

(b) Violation by Employee of a state or federal criminal law involving the commission of a crime against Safeco or a felony involving moral turpitude or a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1033 (unless the action constituting such violation was taken with the advice of counsel which may include the general counsel of Safeco), including the entry of a guilty or nolo contendere plea;

(c) Conduct by Employee that constitutes willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct in carrying out his duties, resulting, in either case, in material harm to Safeco, monetarily or otherwise, unless Employee reasonably believed in good faith that such act or non-act was in or not opposed to the best interests of Safeco; or
