     WHEREAS, the Directors of United America Indemnity, Ltd., an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the law of the Cayman Islands, desire to effect the revisions to the Plan set forth herein effective the date hereof.
     NOW THEREFORE, the Plan is amended as follows:

In connection with any event described in this paragraph, the Committee may provide, in its sole discretion, for the cancellation of any outstanding Stock Option and payment in cash or other property in exchange therefor.”
