 Article 1. Introduction 
 1.1 Background and History 
 The First American Corporation Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan (“Plan”) was established by the
Board of Directors, effective as of July 1, 1985. The Plan was last amended and restated, effective November 1, 2007, to comply with final regulations under Code section 409A. Except as otherwise specified, the Plan is now being
amended and restated, effective as of January 1, 2009, to amend and clarify certain Plan provisions and to clarify compliance with certain aspects of the final regulations under Code section 409A. 
 1.2 Purpose of the Plan 
 The Plan is designed to provide supplemental
retirement income and death benefits for certain Executives. 
 1.3 Gender and Number 
 Except as otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine or feminine terminology shall also include the opposite gender, and the definition of any term in the singular or plural shall also include the opposite
number.

	(c)	Any entity or organization that is required to be aggregated with the Company, pursuant to Code sections 414(m) or 414(o). 

 For purposes of this Plan, however, the term “Affiliate” shall be interpreted such that the phrase “at least 50 percent” will be substituted for
the phrase “at least 80 percent” in each place that it appears in Code section 1563. Additionally, an entity shall be an Affiliate only during the period when the entity has the required relationship, under this Plan
section 2.1, with the Company.

determined that such change in Beneficiary will not result in an “impermissible acceleration” under Code section 409A. If the Company determines that such change in Beneficiary will result in an “impermissible acceleration,”
such intended change will be null and void and the Beneficiary on file prior to such intended change (if any) shall remain the Beneficiary. If an Executive has not designated a Beneficiary, or if a designated Beneficiary is not living or in
existence at the time of the Executive’s death, the Pre-Retirement Death Benefit payable under the Plan shall be paid to the Executive’s Spouse, if then living, and if the Executive’s Spouse is not then living, to the Executive’s

	(b)	A change in the composition of the Board of Directors occurring within a two-year period, as a result of which fewer than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors; or


  

	(c)	Any other event constituting a change in control required to be reported in response to item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act.

	(d)	Any action or attempt by the Executive, directly or indirectly, either for himself or for any other person or entity, to solicit or induce any customer or potential customer of the

 “Person” means any individual, partnership, joint venture, association, joint company, corporation, trust, limited liability company, unincorporated organization, a group, a government or other department, agency or political
subdivision thereof or any other person or entity as contemplated by the Exchange Act. 
 2.29 Plan 
 “Plan” means The First American Corporation Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan. The Plan was originally named The First American Financial Corporation
Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan and took its current name effective as of May 12, 2000, to reflect the change in the name of the Company. 
 2.30
Pre-Retirement Death Benefit 
 “Pre-Retirement Death Benefit” means the benefit payable, as set forth in Article 4, to the Beneficiary of an
Executive who dies prior to the commencement of his Retirement Income Benefit. 
 2.31 Retirement Income Benefit 
 “Retirement Income Benefit” means 1/12 of the benefit described in Article 3 payable as a monthly annuity. 
 2.32 Separation from Service 
 “Separation from Service”
means the date on which an Executive who ceases to be an Employee or otherwise separates from the service of the Company or an Affiliate on account of the Executive’s retirement, death or other termination of employment. Whether or not an
Executive has incurred a Separation from Service will be based on all surrounding relevant circumstances, including, but not limited to, the reasonable belief of both the Executive and the Company (or Affiliate) that the Executive will perform no
future services for the Company or an Affiliate whether as an Employee, as a contractor or in any other capacity. For purposes of this defined term, no Separation from Service will be deemed to have occurred if the Executive transfers employment
from the Company or an Affiliate to another member of the Company’s Code section 414 controlled group. For this purpose, controlled group membership will include the Company and all Affiliates. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan will treat an anticipated permanent reduction in the level of bona fide services provided by the Executive to the Company or an
Affiliate as a Separation from Service provided that it is reasonable for the Company or the Affiliate to anticipate that the Executive’s reduced level of bona fide services will not exceed 49 percent of the average level of bona fide
services provided by such Executive within the immediately preceding applicable 36 months within the meaning of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii). 
 The commencement of the Retirement Income Benefit, described in Article 3 and subject to the six-month payment delay set forth at Plan section 3.5, will be deemed to be on account of 

  

 9 








 
the Executive’s Separation from Service provided that the Retirement Income Benefit commences no later than the end of the calendar year in which the
Separation from Service occurs or, if later, within 2 1/2 months following such Separation from Service provided that the
Executive cannot designate the taxable period in which such Retirement Income Benefit shall commence. 
 2.33 Specified Employee 
 “Specified Employee” means an Executive qualifying as a “key employee” for purposes of Code section 416 (determined without regard to Code
section 416(i)(5)) by satisfying any one of the following conditions at any time during the 12-month period ending on each December 31 (“Identification Date”): 
  

	(a)	The Executive is among the top-paid 50 officers of the Company with annual compensation (within the meaning of Code section 415(c)(3)) in excess of $145,000 (subject to
cost-of-living adjustments); 

  

	(b)	The Executive is a five-percent owner; or 

  

	(c)	The Executive is a one-percent owner and has annual compensation in excess of $150,000. 

 If an individual is a key employee as of an Identification Date, including an individual who acknowledges his Specified Employee status to the Company immediately prior to the date his Retirement Income Benefit
commences, the individual shall be treated as a Specified Employee for the 12-month period beginning on April 1 following the Identification Date. For the limited purpose of applying the “one-percent” and “five-percent”
ownership rules, ownership is determined with respect to the entity for which the Employee provides services. The Code’s controlled and affiliated service group rules do not apply when determining an Executive’s ownership interests.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, an individual shall not be treated as a Specified Employee unless any stock of the Company or any Affiliate is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise. 
 For purposes of making its annual Specified Employee determination, the Company shall consider compensation treated as recognizable pay under the definition of pay
commonly referred to as “general Code section 415 pay.” 
 Notwithstanding the above, the Company may (but is not required to) adopt an
alternative method for identifying Specified Employees, provided such method satisfies the requirements set forth at Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(i)(5). 
  

 10 








 2.34 Spouse 
 “Spouse” means with respect to an Executive, a person of the opposite sex from the Executive, who is the Executive’s husband or wife (as applicable) under applicable state law to whom the Executive has been legally married
during the 12-month period immediately preceding the Executive’s date of death, if such death is earlier than the Executive’s Early, Normal or Deferred Retirement Date, or the person to whom the Executive is married as of his Annuity
Starting Date. No individual, including an individual of the opposite sex, shall be the Spouse of an Executive on account of the fact that the individual is registered as the domestic partner of the Executive under state law, even if state law
provides that the domestic partners shall have the same rights, protections, and benefits, under state law, as married persons. No individual shall be the Spouse of an Executive unless the person would be treated as the “Spouse” of the
Executive under 1 USC section 7 (relating to the definition of a “Spouse” for purposes of federal law, as added by the Defense of Marriage Act). 
 2.35 Surviving Spouse 
 “Surviving Spouse” means the Spouse of a deceased Executive who was the Spouse to
whom the Executive was married at the time that Plan benefits commenced and who is living at the time of the Executive’s death after benefit commencement. 
 2.36 Years of Credited Service 
 “Year of Credited Service” means years of benefit service as defined in Article 3 of the Basic
Plan. In making this determination, and notwithstanding the prior sentence, the provisions of Plan section 9.4 relating to leaves of absence shall control over any contrary provisions in the Basic Plan. 
  

 11 








 Article 3. Retirement Income Benefits 
 3.1 Eligibility to Participate 
 Subject to Plan section 5.2, each Executive who either: 
  

	(a)	Reaches his Normal Retirement Date while an Executive employed by an Employer and retires on or after such date; or 

  

	(b)	Retires on or after his Early Retirement Date but prior to reaching Normal Retirement Date, 

 shall be eligible to receive a Retirement Income Benefit under this Plan upon the Executive’s Separation from Service. 
 3.2 Normal Retirement 
 Subject to Plan section 3.5 and to the Executive’s execution of a separation agreement and annual written
certification that he is not in Competition with the Company or any Affiliate, each in the form prescribed by the Committee or its designee, an Executive who incurs a Separation from Service (subject to Article 4 if such Separation from Service is
as a result of a death) on or after his Normal Retirement Date shall be entitled to a Retirement Income Benefit equal to 30% of his Final Average Compensation and payable in the form of a Joint and Survivor Annuity commencing on the last day of the
month following the month in which the Executive’s Separation from Service occurs. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Executive’s Retirement
Income Benefit shall be reduced by the amount of any payments that are required to be made to a Spouse, former Spouse, child, or other dependant pursuant to: 
  

	(a)	A valid state domestic relations order that is a judgment, decree, or order under state community property or domestic relations law and that relates to the provision of child
support, alimony, or marital property rights of an Executive’s Spouse, child or other dependent; or 

  

	(b)	In the event of a divorce and after the divorce decree has been issued, a property settlement signed by the Executive, the Executive’s former Spouse, and any other individual

 12 








 3.3 Early Retirement 
 Subject to Plan section 3.5 and to the Executive’s execution of a separation agreement and annual written certification that he is not in Competition with the Company, or any Affiliate, each in the form prescribed by the Committee or
its designee, an Executive who incurs a Separation from Service prior to his Normal Retirement Date, but after reaching his Early Retirement Date, shall be entitled to a Retirement Income Benefit payable in the form of a Joint and Survivor Annuity
commencing on the last day of the month following the month in which the Executive’s Separation from Service occurs equal to: 
  

	(a)	The Retirement Income Benefit that the Executive would have received under Plan section 3.2 above had his date of Separation from Service been on or after the Executive’s
Normal Retirement Date; 

  

	(b)	Reduced by the product of 5.952% and the number of years (rounded up) by which the Executive’s Separation from Service precedes his Normal Retirement Date.


 3.4 Disabled Executive 
 A Disabled
Executive shall be deemed to be an Executive during the period of his Disability and shall continue to be eligible for early retirement benefits under Plan section 3.3, normal retirement benefits under Plan section 3.2 and a Pre-Retirement
Death Benefit under Article 4, and shall be credited with Years of Credited Service for such period regardless of the nonperformance of services for the Company or an Affiliate. A Disabled Executive’s benefit payments, if any, under this Plan
will commence to a vested Executive only upon his Separation from Service. 
 3.5 Six-Month Delay for Specified Employees 
 If an Executive is determined by the Committee to be a Specified Employee, payment of the Executive’s Retirement Income Benefit will not commence prior to the last
day of the month following the six-month anniversary of the Executive’s Separation from Service. Additionally, an Executive must notify the Company to affirm whether or not he is a Specified Employee by virtue of the one-percent and
five-percent ownership thresholds set forth at Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(i) and the Company will not be responsible for any consequences to the Executive as a result of Executive’s failure to so notify the Company. If an
Executive’s normal, early or deferred Retirement Income Benefit is subject to this six-month delay, the Executive will be entitled to receive a one-time lump sum payment equal to the annuity payments delayed by the above six-month delay. The
above six-month delay will not apply for determining when survivor benefits to a Beneficiary may commence in the event of an Executive’s death. 
 3.6 Rehired Executive Not In Pay Status 
 An Executive who has a Separation from Service before he is In Pay Status and subsequently is
re-employed by the Company or an Affiliate shall not resume his status as an Executive unless approved by the Committee. 
  

 13 








 3.7 Rehired Executive In Pay Status 
 An Executive who is In Pay Status following a Separation from Service and is subsequently re-employed by the Company or an Affiliate shall remain In Pay Status. 
  

 14 








 Article 4. Pre-Retirement Death Benefit 
 The Beneficiary of an Executive who dies: 
  

	(a)	While an Executive, or 

  

	(b)	After Separation from Service with a vested Retirement Income Benefit, but prior to commencement of payment of his Retirement Income Benefit, 

 shall be entitled to receive a Pre-Retirement Death Benefit consisting of 10 annual amounts, each equal to 50% of
the Executive’s Final Average Compensation, commencing as soon as practicable after the Executive’s death, including following the death of an Executive who is also a Specified Employee. Commencement of the Beneficiary’s
Pre-Retirement Death Benefit will begin in the same calendar year as the Executive’s death, or, to the extent distribution in the same calendar year is not administratively practicable, then in no event more than 2 1/2 months into the next successive calendar year. 
  

 15 








 Article 5. Vesting of Benefits 
 5.1 General Rule 
 An Executive will be 100% vested in his Retirement Income Benefit if he is an Executive on or after
attaining his Early Retirement Date or Normal Retirement Date and will be 100% vested in his Pre-Retirement Death Benefit if he dies while an Executive. 
 5.2 Change of Control 
  

	(a)	All Executives shall be 100% vested in all of their Plan benefits upon a Change of Control. Such benefits shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Plan as in
effect on the date of the Change of Control, regardless of subsequent amendments to or a complete termination of the Plan. 

  

	(b)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan and subject to Plan section 3.5, an Executive who incurs a Separation from Service after a Change of Control shall be entitled
to a Retirement Income Benefit in the form of a Joint and Survivor Annuity commencing on the last day of the month following such Separation from Service equal to the Retirement Income Benefit that the Executive would have been entitled to receive
under Plan section 3.2 as if he had attained his Normal Retirement Date on the date of the Executive’s Separation from Service. 

 5.3 Forfeiture in the Event of Competition 
  

	(a)	In the event an Executive who has not attained his Early Retirement Date prior to September 1, 2005, engages in Competition (as defined below) with the Company or an Affiliate
on or after September 1, 2005, such Executive and his Beneficiary shall forfeit all right, title and interest in and to any benefits payable under the Plan. 

  

	(b)	In the event an Executive who has attained his Early Retirement Date but has not attained his Normal Retirement Date prior to September 1, 2005, engages in Competition with the
Company or an Affiliate on or after September 1, 2005, such Executive and his Beneficiary shall not be entitled to receive the Retirement Income Benefit described in Plan section 3.2 or the Pre-Retirement Death Benefit described in Article
4 and shall not accrue any additional benefits pursuant to the terms of the Plan on or after September 1, 2005, and shall only be entitled to those benefits that the Executive would have been entitled to had he incurred a Separation from
Service on September 1, 2005. 

  

 16 









	(c)	“Involvement” means the Executive’s relationship with, or provision of services to or for, a Competing Business in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly,
including, without limitation, as a shareholder, member, partner, director, officer, manager, investor, organizer, founder, employee, consultant, advisor, independent contractor, owner, trustee, beneficiary, co-venturer, lender, distributor or
agent, or in any other capacity. The ownership of less than a 2% equity or debt interest in a corporation whose equity securities are publicly traded in a recognized stock exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market shall not be deemed
Involvement with a Competing Business under this Plan, even though the corporation may be a competitor of the Company or an Affiliate. 

  

	(d)	Nothing in this Plan section 5.3 restrains an Executive in any way from engaging in any lawful profession, trade or business of any kind. Rather, this Plan section 5.3
provides for a forfeiture of certain benefits in the event of Competition with the Company or an Affiliate. 

  

 17 








 Article 6. Funding of Benefits 
 The Plan shall be unfunded. All benefits payable under the Plan shall be paid from the Company’s general assets, and nothing contained in the Plan shall require the Company to set aside or hold in trust any funds
for the benefit of an Executive or his Beneficiary, who shall have the status of a general unsecured creditor with respect to the Company’s obligation to make payments under the Plan. Any funds of the Company available to pay benefits under the
Plan shall be subject to the claims of general creditors of the Company and may be used for any purpose by the Company.

the Claimant’s appeal, upon request, the Claimant may review and obtain copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the Claimant’s claim for benefits (but not including any document, record or information that is
subject to any attorney–client or work–product privilege) and may submit issues and comments in writing. The Claimant may submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim for benefits. All comments,
documents, records, and other information submitted by the Claimant shall be taken into account in the appeal without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination. 

  

	(d)	The Committee shall deliver to the Claimant a written decision on the claim promptly, but no later than 60 days after the receipt of the Claimant’s request for such review,
unless special circumstances exist that justify extending this period up to an additional 60 days. If the period is extended, the Claimant shall be given written notice of this extension during the initial 60-day period and such notice shall
set forth the special circumstances and the date a decision is expected. The decision on review of the denial of the claim

above. In addition, no legal action may be commenced later than 365 days subsequent to the date of the written response of the Committee to a Claimant’s request for review pursuant to subsection (d) above. 

 7.12 Effect of a Mistake

 Article 9. Miscellaneous 
 9.1 No Enlargement of Employee Rights

constitute a contract between the Company and any Employee or to be consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of, the employment of any Employee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to give any Employee the right to be
retained in the service of the Company or any Affiliate or to interfere with the right of any of them to discharge or retire any person at any time. No one shall have any right to benefits, except to the extent provided in this Plan. 
 9.2 Benefit Agreement

 Benefit payments
hereunder shall be subject to applicable federal, state or local withholding for taxes.

any Affiliate. 
 9.10 Records Conclusive 
 The records of
the Company shall be conclusive in respect to all matters involved in the administration of the Plan. 
 9.11 Section 409A 
 Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Committee shall administer this Plan in a manner designed to comply with Code section 409A and the
Committee shall disregard any Plan provision if the Committee determines that application of such Plan provision would subject the Executive to an additional excise tax under Code section 409A(a)(1)(B). 
 9.12 Service of Legal Process 
 The members of the Committee (or if
there is no such Committee then the Company) are hereby designated as agent(s) of the Plan for the purpose of receiving legal process. 
 9.13 Governing
Law 
 The Plan shall be construed, administered, and governed in all respects under the applicable laws of the State of California, except to the extent
pre-empted by federal law. Upon any change in the law or other determination that any term, condition or other provision of the Plan has been altered in any way, the Committee shall administer this Plan in accordance with such change notwithstanding
the terms of the Plan pending an amendment to this Plan. 
 9.14 Severability 
 If any provision of this Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, such illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining provisions; instead, each provision is fully severable and the Plan will be
construed and enforced as if any illegal or invalid provision had never been included.

 9.15 Missing Persons 
 The Committee shall establish rules if the Committee is unable to make payment of a benefit due under the terms of the Plan to an Executive because the whereabouts of the Executive cannot be ascertained. 
 9.16 Facility of Payment 
 Every person receiving or claiming benefits
under this Plan is presumed to be mentally competent and of age until the date on which the Committee receives a written notice, in a form and manner acceptable to it, that such person is mentally incompetent or a minor, and that a guardian or other
person legally vested with the care of such person or his estate has been appointed. 
 However, if the Committee should find that any person to whom a
benefit is payable under this Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of any incompetency or is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior claim shall have been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may be paid to the Spouse, a child,
a parent, or a brother or sister, or to any other person or institution that the Committee determines to have incurred expense for such person otherwise entitled to payment. To the extent permitted by law, any such payment so made shall be a
complete discharge of any liability therefor under the Plan. 
 If a guardian of the estate or other person legally vested with the care of the estate of any
person receiving or claiming benefits under the Plan is appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction, payments shall be made to such guardian or other person provided that proper proof of appointment and continuing qualification is furnished in a
form and manner suitable to the Committee. To the extent permitted by law, such guardian or other person may act for the Executive and make any election required of or permitted by the Executive under this Plan, and such action or election shall be
deemed to have been done by the Executive, and benefit payments may be made to such guardian or other person and any such payment shall be a complete discharge of any such liability under the Plan. 
 9.17 General Restrictions Against Alienation 
 The interest of any
Executive under this Plan shall not in any event be subject to sale, assignment, or transfer, and each Executive is hereby prohibited from anticipating, encumbering, assigning, or in any manner alienating his interest hereunder and is without power
to do so; provided, however, that this provision shall not restrict the power or authority of the Committee, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Plan, to disburse funds to the legally appointed guardian, executor, administrator, or
personal representative of any Executive or pursuant to a valid domestic relations order certified and issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
  

 31 








 If any person attempts to take any action contrary to this Plan section 9.17, such action shall be void and the
Company may disregard such action and is not in any manner bound thereby, and they shall suffer no liability for any such disregard thereof. If the Committee is notified that any Executive has been adjudicated bankrupt or has purported to
anticipate, sell, transfer, assign, or encumber any Plan distribution or payment, voluntarily or involuntarily, the Committee shall hold or apply such distribution or payment or any part thereof to, or for the benefit of, such Executive in such
manner as the Committee finds appropriate. 
 9.18 Counterparts 
 This Plan may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original. All the counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument and may be sufficiently evidenced by any one counterpart.

 9.19 Effect of Amendment on Vested Executives 
 Any
Executive who met the requirements for vesting of his Retirement Income Benefit as of October 31, 2007, shall upon Separation from Service be entitled to receive as his Retirement Income Benefit the greater of 
  

	(a)	The Retirement Income Benefit that such Executive would have been entitled to receive under the Plan as it was in effect on October 31, 2007 (which, for the avoidance of doubt,
was prior to the amendments affected by the amendment and restatement of the Plan effective November 1, 2007) and as if such Executive had a Separation from Service on October 31, 2007 (but not for purposes of the six-month period
described at Plan section 3.5 which shall always be measured from the actual date the Executive experienced a Separation from Service); or 

  

	(b)	The Retirement Income Benefit that such Executive is entitled to receive under the Plan (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is the Plan as amended and restated effective
November 1, 2007). The amendment and restatement effective November 1, 2007, shall not result in the decrease or increase of any Retirement Income Benefit of any Executive who is In Pay Status or any Pre-Retirement Death Benefit being paid
as of October 31, 2007. 

 9.20 Assignment 
 The Company shall have the right to assign its obligations under the Plan, either in whole or in part, to any Affiliate of the Company.
