Without limiting the foregoing and Section 5.04, upon a termination under this Section 5.07, the Executive shall be entitled to the payments and benefits set forth in Section 4.04 which have accrued as of the Date of the Termination.

(g)If this Section 5.07 is applicable, Section 5.02 shall not apply.

Section 6.01.   Nondisclosure and Non-use of Confidential Information. The Executive will not disclose or use at any time during or after the Employment Period any Confidential Information of which the Executive is or becomes aware, whether or not such Confidential Information is developed by him, except to the extent that such disclosure or use is directly related to and required by the Executive's performance of duties assigned to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement. Under all circumstances and at all times, the Executive will take all appropriate steps to safeguard Confidential Information in his possession and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft.

Section 7.01.   Ownership of Intellectual Property. In the event that the Executive as part of his activities on behalf of the Company generates, authors or contributes to any invention, design, new development, device, product, method of process (whether or not patentable or reduced to practice or comprising Confidential Information), any copyrightable work (whether or not comprising Confidential Information) or any other form of Confidential Information relating directly or indirectly to the business of the Company as now or hereinafter conducted (collectively, "Intellectual Property"), the Executive acknowledges that such Intellectual Property is the sole and exclusive property of the Company and hereby assigns all right title and interest in and to such Intellectual Property to the Company. Any copyrightable work prepared in whole or in part by the Executive during the Employment Period will be deemed "a work made for hire" under Section 201(b) of the United States Copyright Act of 1976, as amended, and the Company will own all of the rights comprised in the copyright therein. The Executive will promptly and fully disclose all Intellectual Property and will cooperate with the Company to protect the Company's interests in

and rights to such Intellectual Property (including providing reasonable assistance in securing patent protection and copyright registrations and executing all documents as reasonably requested by the Company, whether such requests occur prior to or after termination of Executive's employment hereunder).

Section 8.01.   Delivery of Materials upon Termination of Employment. As requested by the Company, from time to time and upon the termination of the Executive's employment with (or services for) the Company for any reason, the Executive will promptly deliver to the Company all property of the Company in the Executive's possession or within his control, including, without limitation, all copies and embodiments, in whatever form or medium, of all Confidential Information or Intellectual Property (including written records, notes, photographs, manuals, notebooks, documentation, program listings, flow charts, magnetic media, disks, diskettes, tapes and all other materials containing any Confidential Information or Intellectual Property), irrespective of the location or form of such property and, if requested by the Company, will provide the Company with written confirmation that all such property has been delivered to the Company and/or deleted from computers, as applicable.

(a)The Executive acknowledges that during his employment with the Company, he has, and will continue to, become familiar with trade secrets and other Confidential Information concerning the Company and its Affiliates and their respective predecessors, and that his services will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company. In addition, the Executive hereby agrees that at any time (i) during the Employment Period, and (ii) (x) following a Justified Termination and delivery of the Noncompetition Notice by the Company to the Executive, for a period ending twelve (12) months after the termination of the Executive's employment and (y) following an Unjustified Termination, for a period ending twelve (12) months after the termination of the Executive's employment (the time described in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the "Restricted Period"), he will not directly or indirectly own, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for or in any manner engage in any business competing with the business of the Company or its Affiliates as such businesses exist or are in process as of the date of termination, within any geographical area in which the Company or its Affiliates engage or plan to engage in such businesses. It shall not be considered a violation of this Section 9.01 for the Executive to be a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as the Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation. The terms of Section 9.01(a)(ii)(x) shall be of no force or effect unless the Company notifies the Executive in writing no later than ten (10) business days following a Justified Termination of its intention to enforce the provisions of Section 9.01(a)(ii)(x) (the "Noncompetition Notice").

(b)Subject to Section 12.09, in the event the Company provides the Executive with the Noncompetition Notice, (i) the Company shall be required to continue to pay the Executive the Base Salary for the Restricted Period, paid in accordance with the Company's regular pay practices, starting with the first pay date following delivery of the Noncompetition Notice, (ii) the Company shall be required to pay in a lump sum the Executive's Target Bonus then in effect on the first pay date following the delivery of the Noncompetition Notice, (iii) the Executive shall continue to receive major medical insurance coverage benefits from the Company's plans in effect at the time of such termination of employment for the Restricted Period, and (iv) the Company shall continue to provide the housing allowance set forth in Section 4.04(e) for the lesser of the Restricted Period and the period during which the Executive remains a resident of Bermuda.

Section 9.02.   Nonsolicitation. The Executive acknowledges that during his employment with the Company, he has, and will continue to, become familiar with trade secrets and other Confidential Information concerning the Company, its Affiliates and their respective predecessors, and that his services are and will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company. The Executive hereby agrees that during the Restricted Period, (a) the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or its Affiliates to leave the employ of the Company or its Affiliates, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or its Affiliates and any employee thereof or otherwise employ or receive the services of any individual who was an employee of the Company or its Affiliates at the Date of Termination or within the six-month period prior thereto, and (b) the Executive will not induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, client, insured, reinsured, reinsurer, broker, licensee or other business relation of the Company or its Affiliates to cease doing business with the Company or its Affiliates.

Section 9.03.   Enforcement. If, at the enforcement of Sections 9.01 or 9.02, a court holds that the duration or scope stated therein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration and scope reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated duration or scope and that the court will be permitted to revise the restrictions contained in this Article 9 to cover the maximum duration and scope permitted by law.

Accordingly, and in addition to any remedies which the Company may have at law, in the event of an actual or threatened breach by the Executive of his covenants and agreements contained in Sections 6.01, 7.01, 8.01, 9.01 or 9.02, the Company shall have the absolute right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for such injunctive or other equitable relief as such court may deem necessary or appropriate in the circumstances.

Section 11.01.   Executive Representations. The Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (a) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Executive does not and will not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which the Executive is a party or by which he is bound, (b) the Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, noncompetition agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other Person that affects his right or ability to perform the duties contemplated by this Agreement, and (c) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement will be the valid and binding obligation of the Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Section 12.02.   Consent to Amendments. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only by a written agreement executed and delivered by the Company and the Executive. No other course of dealing between the parties to this Agreement or any delay in exercising any rights hereunder will operate as a waiver of any rights of any such parties.

Section 12.03.   Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto will bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto whether so expressed or not, provided that the Executive may not assign his rights or delegate his obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of the Company. The Company, or any entity which controls the Company, shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company by written agreement expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had occurred. As used in this Agreement, "Company" shall mean the Company as defined above and any successor to all or substantially all of its business or assets which becomes bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 12.04.   Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.

Section 12.05.   Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all of which counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 12.06.   Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

Section 12.08.   Withholding. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state, local or foreign taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

Section 12.09.   409A and 457A. It is intended that this Agreement will comply with Sections 409A and 457A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (and any regulations and guidelines issued thereunder), to the extent the Agreement is subject thereto, and the Agreement shall be interpreted on a basis consistent with such intent. If an amendment of the

Agreement is necessary in order for it to comply with Section 409A or Section 457A, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to amend the Agreement in a manner that preserves the original intent of the parties to the extent reasonably possible. No action or failure to act, pursuant to this Section 12.09 shall subject the Company to any claim, liability, or expense, and the Company shall not have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise protect the Executive from the obligation to pay any taxes, interest or penalties pursuant to Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Executive is deemed on the date of his "separation from service" (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)) to be a "specified employee" within the meaning of that term under Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, then with regard to any payment that is required to be delayed pursuant to Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code (after taking into account the applicable provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)), the portion, if any, of such payment so required to be delayed shall not be made prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of his "separation from service" or (ii) the date of his death (the "Delay Period"). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to the Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments due under this Agreement shall be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. Whenever payments under this Agreement are to be made in installments, each such installment shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Any payment to be made after receipt of an executed and irrevocable release within any specified period, in which such period begins in one taxable year of Executive and ends in a second taxable year of Executive, will be made in the second taxable year. In no case will compliance with this Section by the Company constitute a breach of the Company's obligations under this Agreement.

With respect to any reimbursement or in-kind benefit arrangements of the Company and its subsidiaries provided for herein that constitute deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A, except as otherwise permitted by Section 409A, the following conditions shall be applicable: (i) the amount eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, under any such arrangement in one calendar year may not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, under such arrangement in any other calendar year (except that the health and dental plans may impose a limit on the amount that may be reimbursed or paid), (ii) any reimbursement must be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred, and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all payments or benefits that are due after December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such payment or benefit vests for purposes of Section 457A of the Code, shall be made or provided on such December 31.

Section 12.10.   Excess Parachute Payments. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that the amount of payments or other benefits payable to the Executive under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the acceleration of any payment or the accelerated vesting of any payment or other benefit), together with any payments, awards or benefits payable under any other plan, program, arrangement or agreement maintained by the Company or

one of its Affiliates, would constitute an "excess parachute payment" (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code), the payments under Section 5.02 of this Agreement shall be reduced (by the minimum possible amounts) until no amount payable to the Executive under this Agreement constitutes an "excess parachute payment" (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code); provided, however, that no such reduction shall be made if the net after-tax payment (after taking into account federal, state, local or other income, employment and excise taxes) to which the Executive would otherwise be entitled without such reduction would be greater than the net after-tax payment (after taking into account federal, state, local or other income, employment and excise taxes) to the Executive resulting from the receipt of such payments with such reduction.

(b)All determinations required to be made under this Section 12.10, including whether a payment would result in an "excess parachute payment" and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determinations, shall be made by an accounting firm designated by the Company (the "Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive as requested by the Company or the Executive. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company and shall be paid by the Company. Absent manifest error, all determinations made by the Accounting Firm under this Section 12.10 shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Executive.

Section 12.11.   No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement will not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the Company, the Executive and their respective heirs, executors, successors and assigns.

Section 12.12.   Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement among the parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, that may have related in any way to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall serve as a written statement of employment for purposes of Section 6 of the Bermuda Employment Act 2000.

Section 12.13.   Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party. Any reference to any federal, state, local or foreign statute or law will be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The use of the word "including" in this Agreement means including without limitation and is intended by the parties to be by way of example rather than limitation.

Section 12.14.   Survival. Sections 3.04, 4.04(i), 5.02, 5.03, 5.04, 6.01, 7.01, 8.01 and Articles 9, 10, 11 and 12 will survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding any termination of the Employment Period.

Section 12.15.   Governing Law. ALL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAW OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS.

Section 12.16.   Jurisdiction. The parties agree to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts situated in New York County, New York, for the resolution of any dispute

arising under this Agreement or under any share-based award agreements between the Company and the Executive.

Section 12.17.   No Activity Within the United States. The Executive will comply with the operating guidelines set forth in Exhibit A.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date and year first above written.
