Safeco Corporation (“Safeco”) hereby grants to «First_Name» «Last_Name» (“Employee”) the following restricted stock rights pursuant to, and in accordance with the provisions of, the Safeco Long-Term Incentive Plan of 1997 (the “Plan”).

1. Shares Subject to Rights. Safeco shall (i) issue to Employee the respective number of shares of Safeco common stock (the “Shares”) listed in the following schedule of dates (the “Settlement Dates”), (ii) at the discretion of the committee designated by the Board of Directors to administer the Plan (the “Committee”), make a payment in U.S. dollars of an amount equal to the fair market value of the Shares attributable to the respective Settlement Date (or any portion thereof) or (iii) if eligible and at the election of the Employee, defer the settlement of the Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Deferred Compensation and Supplemental Benefit Plan for Executives (“DCP”) if, and only if, Employee remains continuously employed by Safeco or a Safeco subsidiary, as defined in the Plan, up to and including the respective Settlement Date. Please note that the American Jobs Creation Act enacted on October 22, 2004 (“AJCA”) may have an impact on the deferral of compensation, including the settlement of the Shares. Following additional guidance from the U.S. Department of Treasury, Safeco will evaluate the impact of the AJCA and will determine if the election to defer the settlement of Shares, in addition to other types of compensation, will be available to Employee.

Please note that if a designated Settlement Date falls on a weekend, or is otherwise not a date when investment markets are open, the immediately preceding regular business date will be the Settlement Date.

2. Tax Withholding. As a condition to receiving the Shares attributable to a Settlement Date or payment for such Shares, as the case may be, employee must tender to Safeco an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements (“Tax Requirements”). Unless Employee

pays Safeco an amount equal to the Tax Requirements by the date established by the plan administrator, Safeco shall reduce the number of Shares issued to Employee by the number of Shares which, on the Settlement Date, has a fair market value equal to the Tax Requirements.

3. Termination of Employment. If Employee voluntarily or involuntarily ceases to be an employee of Safeco or a Safeco subsidiary for any reason other than (i) a Change in Control, (ii) Employee’s death or disability or (iii) Employee’s retirement (as defined in paragraph 4 below), Employee shall have no rights to receive any Shares attributable to Settlement Dates occurring after the date of termination of employment. Nothing herein shall be construed or interpreted to confer upon Employee any rights to continued employment by Safeco or a Safeco subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the right of Safeco, in its sole discretion, to terminate Employee at any time.

4. Death or Disability; Retirement; Change in Control. If (i) Employee’s employment by Safeco or a Safeco subsidiary terminates by reason of Employee’s death or disability (as disability is defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor Code provision), (ii) Employee’s employment by Safeco or a Safeco subsidiary terminates by reason of Employee’s retirement or (iii) there is a Change in Control of Safeco, then as soon as practical following the Change in Control or the date of employment termination due to death, disability or retirement, Safeco shall issue to Employee or the personal representative of Employee’s estate all of the unissued Shares covered by this Award, minus the Tax Requirement, or in lieu thereof, at the request of Employee or the personal representative, make a cash payment equal to the fair market value of such Shares, minus the Tax Requirement, established as of the date of employment termination due to death, disability or retirement or the date of the Change in Control, as the case may be. Such Shares shall be issued or payment made without regard to any employment or other service requirement stated in this Award Agreement. For purposes of this Award Agreement, an Employee shall be eligible for retirement if the Employee retires with ten or more years of service with Safeco or a Safeco subsidiary and is (i) 55 or older on the retirement date and (ii) the Employee’s age plus years of service add up to at least 75.

5. Additional Compensation Payments. So long as Employee remains in the continuous employ of Safeco or a Safeco subsidiary, then, with respect to the Shares that are to be issued on each Settlement Date hereunder, Safeco shall (i) pay to Employee during the period commencing with the date hereof and ending on such Settlement Date, as additional compensation, an amount of cash equal to the dividends that would have been payable to Employee during such period if Employee had owned such Shares (“Dividend Equivalents”) or (ii) if eligible and at the election of the Employee, defer the Dividend Equivalents pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the DCP. Such amounts shall be paid on the regular payroll date that coincides with, or next follows, the applicable dividend payment dates. Upon termination of employment, Employee’s right to receive Dividend Equivalents under this paragraph shall immediately cease; provided; however, that if the termination of employment was due to Employee’s death or disability (as defined in paragraph 4 above) and occurred after an ex-dividend date but prior to payment of the dividend, Employee or the personal representative of Employee’s estate shall be entitled to payment under this paragraph of an amount equivalent to such dividend.

6. Rights Not Transferable. The rights granted to Employee hereunder shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Except to the extent the Plan or the Committee may permit, the rights evidenced by this Award Agreement may not be assigned, pledged or transferred in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. During Employee’s lifetime, only Employee or Employee’s guardian may exercise any right granted hereunder.
