WHEREAS, Fairfax, C&F and Holdings are desirous of employing Executive in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and Executive is desirous of being so employed;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements contained in this Agreement, Fairfax, C&F and Holdings and Executive (together the “Parties” and individually a “Party”), intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Scope of Employment

1.1 Title. Executive shall be President and Chief Executive Officer of Holdings, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F and Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of their wholly owned insurance subsidiaries (collectively, the “Companies”), excluding Seneca Insurance Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

1.2 Duties. As President and Chief Executive Officer of Holdings, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F and Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Companies, Executive shall be responsible both for managing the operations of Holdings, C&F and the Companies, reporting to the Chairman of the Board of Holdings, and for performing any additional services that are delegated to Executive by Holdings’ Chairman of the Board and Holdings’ Board of Directors (the “Board”). Executive shall devote substantially all of Executive’s business time and efforts to the performance of the responsibilities of the offices of President and Chief Executive Officer of Holdings, Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F and Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Companies diligently and to the best of Executive’s abilities and shall not, without the prior written consent of Holdings’ Chairman of the Board and Holdings’ Board, accept other employment or render or perform other duties, nor shall Executive have any direct or indirect ownership interest in any other business which is in competition with the business of Fairfax, C&F, or Holdings and their affiliated companies, other than up to five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of a corporation (determined by vote or value) or limited partnership interests constituting up to five percent (5%) of the value of any such partnership. The foregoing shall not preclude Executive from engaging in charitable and personal investment activities, provided that, in the judgment of Holdings’ Board, such activities do not materially interfere with Executive’s performance.

1.3 Place of Performance. Executive shall be based in Morristown, New Jersey, at the principal offices of C&F or such other place as may be agreed to in writing by the Parties.

Section 2. Term

2.1 Term. C&F hereby employs the Executive on a rolling, two-year basis, with the period of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement commencing on January 1, 2003 and continuing for a minimum period of two years thereafter, with a provisional ending date of January 1, 2005 (“Term”), such ending date subject to automatic extension as provided below. The period of the Executive’s employment hereunder within the Term and any automatically extended terms is herein referred to as the “Employment Period”.

2.2 Automatic Extension. On January 1, 2003, and on each day thereafter, the Employment Period shall be extended automatically by one day unless at any time after January 1, 2003, C&F delivers to the Executive, or the Executive delivers to C&F, written notice that the Employment Period will not thereinafter be further extended and will therefore end at the expiration of the then existing Employment Period, including any previous extensions. Following such notice, the Employment Period will not be further extended except by mutual agreement of C&F and the Executive. Thus, after January 1, 2003, until written notice is received by either party, the unexpired Employment Period at any point in time shall be two years. The Employment Period shall continue until the expiration of all automatic extensions effected as described herein, unless and until it ceases or is terminated sooner as provided for in Section 5.

All reimbursements are subject to modification from time to time hereafter, provided that such modification does not adversely affect the Executive’s payments or reimbursements incurred prior thereto.

Fairfax, C&F or Holdings or any of their affiliates may not indemnify Executive in connection with any Proceeding to the extent that the Executive is finally adjudged either (x) to be liable to Fairfax, C&F or Holdings or any of their affiliates or (y) to be liable on the basis that Executive improperly received personal benefit. Indemnification in connection with a Proceeding brought by or in the right of Fairfax, C&F or Holdings or any of their affiliates shall be limited to costs and expenses incurred in connection with, or in anticipation of the Proceeding (including, without limitation, court costs, disbursements, and reasonably incurred attorneys and expert witness fees). Pursuant to applicable law, Executive shall be entitled to an advancement of any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with, or in anticipation of any threatened or actual Proceeding, or in connection with seeking to enforce Executive’s rights under this Subsection 4.5, within fifteen (15) days after Executive gives written notice requesting such an advancement. Such notice shall include, to the extent required by applicable law, an undertaking by Executive to repay the amount advanced if Executive is ultimately determined not to be entitled to indemnification against such costs and expenses. Additionally, during the Employment Period and for six (6) years thereafter, Fairfax shall cover Executive under any directors and officers liability insurance policy that it may then have in effect.

5.2 Termination Without Cause or Termination by Executive for Good Reason. In the event Executive’s employment with Fairfax, C&F or Holdings or the Companies is terminated (a) by Fairfax, C&F or Holdings or the Companies without Cause, or (b) by Executive when Good Reason exists, then, in any such case, Executive shall be entitled to the following:

(i) Salary Equivalent. Fairfax, C&F or the Companies shall pay Executive an amount equal to Executive’s Base Salary as of the Termination Date, for a period of thirty-six (36) months from the Termination Date.

In addition, the vesting provisions of the Fairfax Financial Restricted Share Plan; the Crum & Forster Holdings Corp.

(vi) Placement Services.

For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Cause” shall mean:

(a) the willful and continued failure of Executive, after written notice to Executive, to substantially perform Executive’s duties on behalf of Fairfax, C&F or Holdings or their affiliates, other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness or death;

(e) formal directive by any insurance regulatory authority governing the Companies’ ability to conduct business operations to remove the Executive as an Officer of C&F, Holdings or any of their subsidiaries.

An act or failure to act on the part of Executive shall be considered “willful” if done, or failed to be done, by Executive in the absence of good faith and without reasonable belief that such action or omission was in the best interest of the Companies.

(b) any diminution of Executive’s duties or responsibilities or loss of title resulting from a corporate restructuring or a reorganization of operations within C&F, Holdings or the Companies if, but only if, (i) following such restructuring or reorganization, the responsibilities, authorities and status of the Executive, viewed in the aggregate (and thus taking into account enhancements as well as diminishments), are materially diminished, and (ii) if such diminution or loss of title is not reversed within twenty (20) days of written notice being delivered by Executive to Fairfax, C&F, Holdings or the Companies that such diminution or loss of title must be reversed;

(d) any material breach by Fairfax, C&F, Holdings or the Companies of a provision of any written agreement between Fairfax, C&F or Holdings or the Companies and Executive, including this Agreement, if not cured within twenty (20) days of written notice of such breach delivered by Executive to Fairfax, C&F, Holdings or the Companies;

(ii) The sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Holdings’ to one more entities unaffiliated with the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, an initial public offering shall not constitute a Change in Control and a transaction the sole purpose of which is to change the state of Holdings’ incorporation shall not constitute a Change in Control.
