3. Effective January 1, 2015, Section 4.1 of the Employment Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
4.1 Base Salary. Beginning January 1, 2015, the Company will pay Executive an annual base salary of $804,375, payable in accordance with the Companys customary payroll practices (Base Salary), with no subsequent increases during the Term unless the Compensation Committee provides otherwise subsequent to the Amendment Date.
4. Effective January 1, 2015, Section 4.2 of the Employment Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

For 2015, Executive shall be entitled to receive a cash incentive award under Article X of the Universal Insurance Holdings, Inc. 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time, in an amount equal to 1.5% of the Companys net income as reported in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2015 (the Annual Bonus), which Annual Bonus shall be paid to Executive no later than March 15, 2016.
