PERFORMANCE UNIT AGREEMENT UNDER THE SKYWARD SPECIALTY INSURANCE GROUP, INC. 2022 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
1.Terminology. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, capitalized terms used herein are defined in the Glossary at the end of this Agreement.
2.Vesting. All of the PUs are nonvested and forfeitable as of the Grant Date. So long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date through the applicable date upon which vesting is scheduled to occur, the PUs will become vested and nonforfeitable in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice. Except for the circumstances, if any, described in the Notice, none of the PUs will become vested and nonforfeitable after your Service ceases.
3.Termination of Employment or Service. Unless otherwise provided in the Notice, if your Service with the Company ceases for any reason, all PUs that are not then vested and nonforfeitable will be forfeited to the Company immediately and automatically upon such cessation without payment of any consideration therefor and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such PUs or the underlying cash amount.
a.Termination of Employment or Service due to death or Total and Permanent Disability. In the event your Service is terminated due to your death or Total and Permanent Disability, the number of PUs that vest will be calculated by using the actual performance for any completed Measurement Periods as of the termination date and target performance achievement for any partial Measurement Periods outstanding as of the termination date. For the avoidance of doubt, any Measurement Periods that are scheduled to begin after the date in which the termination due to your death or Total and Permanent Disability occurs will not be included in the average calculation for purposes of determining level of performance achievement.
b.Qualifying Retirement. In the event your Service is terminated due to a Qualifying Retirement, the number of PUs that are eligible to vest will be a pro-rata number based on the number of days you were in Service during the Performance Period and the actual average performance level achieved through the end of the Measurement Period in which the Qualifying Retirement occurs. Such pro-rata portion of the number of PUs which are eligible to vest will be determined by dividing (i) the number of days that have elapsed prior to the date of the Qualifying Retirement date since the start of the applicable Performance Period by (ii) the total number of days in such Performance Period. The pro-rata number of PUs which are eligible to vest based on the applicable performance level attained will be calculated by reference to the average of the actual performance for any completed Measurement Periods as of the termination date and actual performance achieved for the Measurement Period in which the Qualifying Retirement occurs, and such applicable pro-rata number of PUs shall vest contingent on the Release Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any Measurement Periods that are scheduled to begin after the date in which the Qualifying Retirement occurs will not be included in the average calculation for purposes of determining level of performance achievement and number of pro-rata PUs which are eligible to vest.
c.Termination of Employment or Service in connection with a Change in Control. In the event your Service is terminated without Cause immediately before and contingent upon a Change in Control, the number of PUs that vest will be calculated by using the actual performance for any completed Measurement Periods as of the termination date and full target performance achievement for the Measurement Period in which the Change in Control occurs.
4.Restrictions on Transfer. Neither this Agreement nor any of the PUs may be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and the PUs shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. All rights with respect to this Agreement and the PUs shall be exercisable during your lifetime only by you or your guardian or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the PUs may be transferred upon your death by last will and testament or under the laws of descent and distribution.
5.Settlement of PUs.
a.Manner of Settlement. You are not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if required) as a condition to settlement of the PUs. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator in accordance with the Plan, the Company will issue to you, in settlement of your PUs and subject to the provisions of Section 6 below, a lump sum cash amount equal to (A) the dollar value of one PU as set forth in the Notice on the date of settlement, multiplied by (B) the number of whole PUs that become vested, and such vested PUs will terminate and cease to be outstanding upon cash settlement.
b.Timing of Settlement. Your PUs will be settled by the Company, in cash, as described herein, on the date that the PUs become vested and nonforfeitable. However, if a scheduled issuance date falls on a


EXHIBIT 10.16
Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, such issuance date shall instead fall on the next following day that the principal executive offices of the Company are open for business.
6.Tax Withholding. On or before the time you receive a cash distribution subject to your PUs, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize any required withholding from the cash payment issuable to you and/or otherwise agree to make adequate provision in cash for any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or any Affiliate which arise in connection with your PUs.
7.Non-Guarantee of Employment or Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall alter your at-will or other employment status or other service relationship with the Company, nor be construed as a contract of employment or service relationship between the Company and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in the employ of, or in a service relationship with, the Company for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any nonvested and forfeitable PUs or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.
8.Clawback upon Breach of Non-solicitation or Confidentiality Covenants. As a condition to this Agreement, you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Company containing such confidentiality, non-solicitation, and/or other provisions as the Company may adopt and approve from time to time. If the Administrator determines that you have breached such agreement: (i) all unvested or unsettled PUs will be forfeited; and (ii) you shall, within ten (10) days of notice of the Administrator’s determination of such breach, repay all cash paid in settlement of the PUs within twelve (12) months preceding your termination from Service. The forfeiture and clawback rights in this Section are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any rights of repurchase or other recoupment rights the Company may have.
9.The Company’s Rights. The existence of the PUs shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the PUs or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company’s assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
10.Restrictions on Settlement. Only to the extent applicable, the settlement of the PUs shall be subject to and in compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state, or foreign law with respect to such securities. As a condition to the settlement of the PUs, the Company may require you to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation, and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
11.Notices. All notices and other communications made or given pursuant to this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company, or in the case of notices delivered to the Company by you, addressed to the Administrator, care of the Company for the attention of its Secretary at its principal executive office or, in either case, if the receiving party consents in advance, transmitted and received via telecopy or via such other electronic transmission mechanism as may be available to the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and this award of PUs by electronic means or to request your consent to participate in the Plan or accept this award of PUs by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
12.Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the relevant Notice and the Plan, contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the PUs granted hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the execution of this Agreement with respect to the PUs granted hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes.
13.Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Administrator in its discretion; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a materially adverse effect on the PUs as determined in the discretion of the Administrator, except as provided in the Plan or in a written document signed by each of the parties hereto.
14.409A Savings Clause. This Agreement and the PUs granted hereunder are intended to fit within the “short-term deferral” exemption from Section 409A of the Code as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b) (4). In administering this Agreement, the Company shall interpret this Agreement in a manner consistent with such exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the PUs fail to satisfy the requirements of the


EXHIBIT 10.16
short-term deferral rule and are otherwise deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and if you are a “Specified Employee” (within the meaning set forth Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)), then the issuance of any shares that would otherwise be made upon the date of the separation from service or within the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the separation from service, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the shares is necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxation on you in respect of the shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of shares that vests is intended to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).
15.No Obligation to Minimize Taxes. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences to you of this award of PUs and shall not be liable to you for any adverse tax consequences to you arising in connection with this award. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and/or legal advisors regarding the tax consequences of this award and by signing the Notice, you have agreed that you have done so or knowingly and voluntarily declined to do so.
16.Conformity with Plan. This Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan. Inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. In the event of any ambiguity in this Agreement or any matters as to which this Agreement is silent, the Plan shall govern. A copy of the Plan is available upon request to the Administrator.
17.No Funding. This Agreement constitutes an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Company to issue a cash payment in the future in accordance with its terms. You have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company as a result of receiving the grant of PUs.
18.Effect on Other Employee Benefit Plans. The value of the PUs subject to this Agreement shall not be included as compensation, earnings, salaries, or other similar terms used when calculating your benefits under any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any Affiliate, except as such plan otherwise expressly provides. The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s employee benefit plans.
19.Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of this Agreement, and of any determinations or decisions made by the Administrator relating to this Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest under this Agreement, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its provisions concerning the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. As a condition of this Agreement, you agree that you will not bring any action arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement in any court other than a federal or state court in the districts which include Delaware, and you hereby agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal court located in the district which includes Delaware or any state court in the district which includes Delaware. You further agree that you will not deny or attempt to defeat such personal jurisdiction or object to venue by motion or other request for leave from any such court.
20.Resolution of Disputes. Any dispute or disagreement which shall arise under, or as a result of, or pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement shall be determined by the Administrator in good faith in its absolute and uncontrolled discretion, and any such determination or any other determination by the Administrator under or pursuant to this Agreement and any interpretation by the Administrator of the terms of this Agreement, will be final, binding and conclusive on all persons affected thereby. You agree that before you may bring any legal action arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement you will first exhaust your administrative remedies before the Administrator. You further agree that in the event that the Administrator does not resolve any dispute or disagreement arising under, as a result of, pursuant to or relating to, this Agreement to your satisfaction, no legal action may be commenced or maintained relating to this Agreement more than twenty-four (24) months after the Administrator’s decision.
21.Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Performance Goals
The Performance Period is made up of three (3) consecutive measurement periods (each a “Measurement Period”), such Measurement Periods to be:
Measurement Period 1     January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024
Measurement Period 2     January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025
Measurement Period 3     January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026
The number of PUs earned shall be determined by reference to the Company’s Combined Ratio, as defined and calculated in the Company’s year-end GAAP financial statements, as certified by the Compensation Committee. The Combined Ratio for the Performance Period shall be determined as a straight-line average of the Combined Ratios at year-end for each of the Measurement Periods.

Calculated 3-year Average Combined Ratio% of PUs Earned
87.5% or greater (Maximum)150%
88.5%140%
89.5%130%
90.5%120%
91.5%110%

94.5%60%
95.5% (Threshold)40%

Impact of Change in Control on Performance Period
If a Change in Control occurs prior to the last date of the Performance Period, the Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to instead provide that the Performance Period shall consist of the period beginning on the first date of the Performance Period and ending on the closing date of the Change in Control for purposes of determining the applicable number of PUs that are eligible to vest based on the average applicable level of performance attained for the completed and partial Measurement Periods through the date of the Change in Control, with the same weighting applied to the partial Measurement Period as any completed Measurement Period in such averaging calculation. Such measured number of PUs will be eligible to vest subject to satisfaction of the Service Vesting Condition.
