Tate, an individual residing at 305 Crum Creek Lane, Newtown Square, PA 19073 (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Executive is presently employed as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company under the terms of an employment agreement, executed on September 5, 2003 (the “Prior Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the parties desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions of Executive’s continued employment as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is mutually acknowledged, the Company and the Executive agree as follows:

1. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT; RENEWAL. The Company agrees to employ the Executive and the Executive accepts employment with the Company for the period commencing as of January 1, 2005 (the “Effective Date”) and ending on December 31, 2008 (such initial period, as extended below, shall be referred to as the “Employment Term”). The term of this Agreement will automatically renew at the expiration of the then current term for an additional one-year period unless, at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration date of the then current term, either party shall give written notice of non-renewal to the other, in which event this Agreement shall terminate at the end of the term then in effect. If the Company elects not to renew this Agreement at the expiration of the initial period (the “Non-Renewal Date”), and if at such time (i) there is no other event that would otherwise constitute “Cause” for the termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder, (ii) the Executive continues to comply with all his post-termination obligations, and (iii) executes a general release in form satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall continue to pay to the Executive his full Annual Direct Salary from the Non-Renewal Date in equal monthly installments until the earlier of (i) the Executive secures full time employment or (ii) six months from the Non-Renewal Date. Following the Non-Renewal Date, the Executive shall notify the Company in writing upon his commencement of any full time employment.

2. POSITION AND DUTIES. The Executive shall serve as the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, reporting to the President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company and shall have such authority and duties, consistent with such position, as may from time to time be specified by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) or CEO. At the request of the Board, the Executive shall also serve, without additional compensation, as an officer or director of any Affiliates of the Company that are involved in the business of insurance, underwriting, reinsurance or other matters related to the business operation of the Company. For purposes hereof, an “Affiliate” means any company that is controlled by, under common control with, or that controls the Company.

3. ENGAGEMENT IN OTHER EMPLOYMENT. The Executive shall devote his business time, energies and talents to the business of the Company and shall comply with each of the Company’s corporate governance and ethics guidelines, conflict of interests policies and code of conduct applicable to all Company employees or senior executives as adopted by the Board from time-to-time. The Executive first shall obtain the consent of the Board in writing before engaging in any other business or commercial activities, duties or pursuits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall preclude the Executive from (i) engaging in charitable activities and community affairs, (ii) managing his personal investments and affairs, and (iii) serving in a capacity as a certified arbitrator in disputes related to reinsurance or insurance during the Executive’s personal time, provided such activities do not, in the reasonable judgment of the Board, interfere with the proper performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder.

4. COMPENSATION.

(a) ANNUAL DIRECT SALARY. During the term of this Agreement, as compensation for services rendered to Company under this Agreement, the Executive shall be entitled to receive from the Company an annual direct salary of not less than $312,000 per year commencing January 1, 2005 (the “Annual Direct Salary”). Executive’s Annual Direct Salary shall be payable in substantially equal biweekly installments, prorated for any partial employment period. The Annual Direct Salary shall be reviewed by the Board in January of each year this Agreement is in effect and may be adjusted in the discretion of the Board after taking into account the prevailing market value of the position and the then current pay increase practice of the Company. In no event shall the Annual Direct Salary be decreased without the express written consent of the Executive.

(b) ANNUAL BONUS. During the term of this Agreement, Executive may be eligible for annual incentive awards under one or more programs adopted by the Board and established for each of the Company’s fiscal years. Award opportunities and other terms and conditions of these awards, if any, will be determined by the Board based on the achievement of goals and objectives established for each of the Company’s fiscal years, and shall not be paid until completion of the Company’s financial statements relating to the performance period at issue and satisfaction of any other conditions adopted as part of such programs. Nothing herein shall prohibit the Company from modifying or amending any such incentive awards plan from time to time, or from terminating any such plan.

(c) EQUITY INCENTIVE AWARDS. During the Employment Term, the Executive may be eligible to receive option awards in United America Indemnity, Ltd. (“UAI”) as determined by the Board of the Company in its sole discretion. In addition to any exercise, vesting or other restrictions imposed on such option awards by the Board in its discretion, all such option awards shall be subject to the forfeiture provisions of Annex A attached hereto.

5. FRINGE BENEFITS, VACATION TIME, EXPENSES, AND

PERQUISITES.

(a) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. The Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under all corporate employment benefit plans, including, but not limited to, any pension plan, savings plan, medical or health-and-accident plan or arrangement generally made available by the Company to its executives and key management employees as a group, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements.

(b) The Executive shall be entitled to the number of paid vacation days in each calendar year determined by the Company from time to time for its senior executive officers, but not less than four (4) weeks in any calendar year (prorated in any calendar year during which the Executive is employed hereunder for less than the entire such year in accordance with the number of days in such calendar year during which he is so employed). The Executive shall also be entitled to all paid holidays given by the Company to its senior executive officers.

(c) During the term of his employment hereunder, the Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by him (in accordance with the policies and procedures established by the Company from time to time) in performing services hereunder, provided that the Executive properly accounts, therefore, in accordance with Company policy.

(d) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, nothing paid to the Executive under any benefit plan or arrangement shall be deemed to be in lieu of compensation to the Executive hereunder.

6. PROTECTION OF COMPANY INFORMATION. During the period of his employment, or at any later time following the termination of his employment for any reason, the Executive shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company and its affiliates, and shall not, without the written consent of the Board, knowingly disclose to any person, other than an employee of the Company or a person to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by the Executive of his duties as an executive of the Company, or use for any purpose other than to perform his duties hereunder, any “Confidential Information” of the Company or any of its Affiliates obtained by him while in the employ of the Company. The Confidential Information protected by this provision shall include all computer software and files, policy expirations, telephone lists, customer lists, prospect lists, marketing information, information regarding managing general agents, pricing policies, contract forms, customer information, copyrights and patents, the identity of Company and Affiliate employees, Company and Affiliate books, records, files, financial information, business practices, policies and procedures, information about all services and products of the Company and its Affiliates, names of users or purchasers of the products or services of the Company or its affiliates, methods of promotion and sale and all information which constitutes trade secrets under the law of any state in which the Company or any of its Affiliates does business. No information shall be treated as Confidential Information if it is generally available public knowledge at the time of disclosure or use by Executive, provided that information shall not be deemed to be publicly available merely because it is embraced by general disclosures or because individual features or combinations thereof are publicly available. The Executive agrees that any breach of the restrictions set forth in this Section will result in irreparable injury to the Company and/or its Affiliates for which there is no adequate remedy at law and the Company and its Affiliates shall, in addition to any other remedies available to them, be entitled to injunctive relief and specific performance in order to enforce the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if the Executive is required to disclose any such confidential or proprietary information pursuant to applicable law or a subpoena or court order, the Executive shall promptly notify the Company, in writing, of any such requirement so that the Company or the appropriate affiliate may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions hereof. The Executive shall reasonably cooperate with the Company to obtain such a protective order or other remedy. If such order or other remedy is not obtained prior to the time the Executive is required to make the disclosure, or the Company waives compliance with the provisions hereof, the Executive shall disclose only that portion of the confidential or proprietary information which he is advised by counsel that he is legally required to so disclose. All records, files, memoranda, reports, customer lists, drawings, plans, documents and the like that the Executive uses, prepares or comes into contact with during the course of the Executive’s employment shall remain the sole property of the Company and/or its affiliates, as applicable. The Executive shall execute and deliver the Company’s standard “work for hire” agreement regarding ownership by the Company of all rights in its confidential and business materials.

7. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.

(a) NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the insurance business and operations of the Company are national in scope, and that the Company operates in multiple locations and business segments in the course of conducting its business. In consideration of this Agreement, the Executive covenants and agrees that during his employment with the Company, and for a period of eighteen (18) months following the termination of such employment for any reason, (but in the case of termination for Cause pursuant to Section 8(c)(i), only after a determination by the Board of such substantial failure to perform), the Executive shall not (i) engage, whether as owner, manager, operator or otherwise, directly or indirectly, in any property and/or casualty insurance company (or holding company which controls such company or and affiliate of such property and/or casualty insurance company in such business) that is based in the United States or does a substantial amount of its business in the United States and that writes more than 15% of its written premium by issuing commercial insurance policies for businesses through a network of wholesale or managing general agents on a binding authority basis (or any reinsurance business providing services to the foregoing); provided however that the restrictions herein shall not prohibit or prevent the Executive from acting as an owner, manager, operator or employee of any wholesale general agent, (ii) use any information obtained in the course of the Executive’s employment by the Company for the purpose of notifying individuals of the Executive’s willingness to provide services after such termination in competition with the Company or in breach of this Agreement, or (iii) otherwise solicit for competitive purposes any person who is, or at any time during the term of the Executive’s employment by the Company was, a customer of the Company; provided that the Executive shall not be subject to the above restrictions if the Company fails to pay severance benefits due to the Executive, if any, pursuant to Section 9(b). Ownership of less than 5% of the securities of any publicly traded company will not violate this Section 7(a). In the event that this paragraph shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable in part by reason of its being too great a period of time or covering too great a geographical area, it shall be in full force and in effect as to that period of time or geographical area determined to be reasonable by the court.

(b) RETURN OF MATERIALS. Upon termination of employment with the Company, the Executive shall promptly deliver to the Company all correspondence, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, computer disks, software, reports and any other document or tangible items containing or constituting Confidential Information about the business of the Company and/or its Affiliates.

(c) NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES AND CUSTOMERS. Should the Executive’s employment with the Company be terminated for any reason (whether such termination occurs during, upon expiration of, or following the original or the renewal term hereof), including, without limitation, as a result of his discharge by the Company with or without Cause or Executive’s voluntary resignation, for a period of eighteen (18) months following such termination the Executive shall not: (i) contact, recruit, employ, entice, induce or solicit, directly or indirectly, any employee, officer, director, agent, consultant or independent contractor employed by or performing services for the Company or any of its Affiliates to leave the employ of or terminate services to the Company or such Affiliate, including, without limitation, working with the Executive, with the entity with which the Executive has affiliated (as an employee, consultant, officer, director, stockholder or otherwise), or with any other entity; (ii) seek, either in his individual capacity or on behalf of any other entity, whether directly or indirectly to solicit, communicate with or contact or advise, or transact or otherwise engage in any insurance related business with (x) any party who is or was a customer of the Company or any of its Affiliates during Executive’s employment by the Company or at any time during the said eighteen (18) month period, or (y) any party who was identified as a prospect of the Company or any of its Affiliates during Executive’s employment by the Company; or (iii) engage in or participate in any effort or act to induce any customer (as defined in subsection 7(c)(ii)) of the Company or any of its Affiliates to take any action which might be disadvantageous to the Company or its Affiliates. The Executive agrees that any breach of the restrictions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 will result in irreparable injury to the Company for which it shall have no adequate remedy in law and the Company shall, in addition to any other remedy available to it and in lieu of Section 15 hereof, be entitled to injunctive relief and specific performance in order to enforce the provisions hereof. In addition to its other remedies, the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Executive and/or the Executive’s employer of costs incurred in securing a qualified replacement as a result of any breach by the Executive of this Section. For purposes of this Agreement, “customer” shall include, without limitation, any policyholder, managing general agent or re-insurer with whom the Company or its affiliates has transacted business.

(d) In the event Executive breaches any of his covenants in this Section 7, the Company and its Affiliates shall be released from their obligation to make payments under Section 9 of this Agreement and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) to provide benefits or make payments under all employee benefit plans in which Executive participates, and the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Executive of severance payments made to the Executive by the Company following termination of employment with the Company. In addition, in the event of a violation by the Executive of his covenants in this Section 7, he shall be subject to the forfeiture provisions of Annex A with respect to his equity holdings in the Company.

(e) The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Section 7: (i) are reasonable in light of all of the circumstances; (ii) are sufficiently limited to protect the legitimate interests of the Company and its subsidiaries; (iii) impose no undue hardship on the Executive; and (iv) are not injurious to the public. The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that (x) the Executive’s breach of the provisions of Section 7 will cause the Company irreparable harm, which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages, and (y) if the Company elects to prevent the Executive from breaching such provisions by obtaining an injunction against the Executive, there is a reasonable probability of the Company’s eventual success on the merits. The Executive consents and agrees that if the Executive commits any such breach or threatens to commit any breach, the Company shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, without posting any bond or other security and without the necessity of proof of actual damage, in addition to, and not in lieu of, such other remedies as may be available to the Company for such breach, including the recovery of money damages.

8. TERMINATION.

(a) The Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death, retirement, or the expiration of this Agreement. Upon the Executive’s death, any sums then due him shall be paid to the executor, administrator or other personal representative of the Executive’s estate.

(b) If the Executive becomes disabled (as certified by a licensed physician selected by the Company) and is unable to perform or complete his duties under this Agreement for a period of 180 consecutive days or 180 days within any twelve-month period, the Company shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of termination to the Executive. Such termination shall be without prejudice to any right the Executive has under the disability insurance program maintained by the Company.

(c) The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause. For the purposes of this agreement, the Company shall have “Cause” to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder upon (i) the Executive substantially failing to perform his duties hereunder after notice from the Company and failure to cure such violation within 10 days of said notice (to the extent the Board reasonably determines such failure to perform is curable and subject to notice) or violating any material Company policies, including, without limitation, the Company’s corporate governance and ethics guidelines, conflicts of interests policies and code of conduct applicable to all Company employees or senior executives, (ii) the engaging by the Executive in any malfeasance, fraud, dishonesty or gross misconduct adverse to the interests of the Company or its affiliates, (iii) the material violation by the Executive of any of the provisions of Sections 3, 6 or 7 hereof or other provisions of this Agreement after notice from Company and a failure to cure such violation within 10 days of said notice (including a “Forfeiture Event” as provided for in Annex A hereto), (iv) a breach by the Executive of any representation or warranty contained herein (including a “Forfeiture Event” as provided for in Annex A hereto), (v) the Board’s determination that the Executive has exhibited incompetence or gross negligence in the performance of his duties hereunder, (vi) receipt of a final written directive or order of any governmental body or entity having jurisdiction over the Company requiring termination or removal of the Executive as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or (vii) the Executive being charged with a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude.

No payments or benefits shall be provided hereunder in connection with the Executive’s disability (i) unless and until the Company has first received a signed general release from the Executive (or the Executive’s guardian or legal representative) in a form acceptable to the Company releasing the Company and Affiliates and any other parties identified by the Company and Affiliates therein, and (ii) to the extent that the Executive has breached any of his post-termination obligations hereunder.
