 AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

This AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is dated as of May 1, 2007, between Enstar Group Limited

 BACKGROUND 
 Company desires to employ Executive, and Executive
desires to be an employee of Company, on the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 TERMS 
 1. CAPACITY AND DUTIES 

1.1 Employment; Acceptance of Employment. Company hereby employs Executive and Executive hereby agrees to continue
employment by Company for the period and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Effective on the date hereof, this Agreement amends and restates the Employment Agreement between Company and Executive, dated as of May 1, 2007 in
its entirety, and the rights and obligations of each party shall be governed by this Agreement. 
 1.2 Capacity and
Duties. 
 (a) Executive shall serve as Chief Executive Officer of Company. Executive shall perform such duties and
shall have such authority consistent with his position as may from time to time be specified by the Board of Directors of Company. Executive shall report directly to the Board of Directors of Company and his principal place of business shall be
Company’s office in Bermuda and his secondary places of business may be in continental Europe. It is recognised that extensive travel may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder.

 (b) Executive shall devote his full working time and energy, skill and best efforts to the performance of his duties
hereunder, in a manner that will comply with Company’s rules and policies and will faithfully and diligently further the business and interests of Company. Executive shall not be employed by or participate or engage in or in any manner be a
part of the management or operation of any business enterprise other than Company without the prior written consent of Company, which consent may be 







 
granted or withheld in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors of Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing shall preclude Executive from (i) serving on
the boards of directors of a reasonable number of other corporations or the boards of a reasonable number of trade associations and/or charitable organizations, (ii) engaging in charitable, community and other business affairs, and
(iii) managing his personal investments and affairs, provided that such activities do not materially interfere with the proper performance of his responsibilities and duties hereunder. 
 2. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT 
 2.1 Term. The term of Executive’s
employment hereunder shall be five years commencing on the date hereof, as further extended or unless sooner terminated in accordance with the other provisions hereof (the “Term”). Except as hereinafter provided, on the fifth anniversary
of the commencement date and on each subsequent anniversary thereof, the Term shall be automatically extended for one year unless either party shall have given to the other party written notice of termination of this Agreement at least 120 days
prior to such anniversary. If written notice of termination is given as provided above, Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall terminate on the last day of the Term. 
 3. COMPENSATION 
 3.1 Basic Compensation. As compensation for
Executive’s services during the first twelve months of the Term, Company shall pay to Executive a salary at the annual rate of $600,000 payable in periodic installments in accordance with Company’s regular payroll practices in effect from
time to time. For each subsequent twelve-month period of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive’s salary shall be in the amount of his initial annual salary with such increases, as may be established by the Board of Directors of
Company in consultation with Executive provided that the increase in base salary with respect to each subsequent twelve-month period shall not be less than the product of Executive’s base salary multiplied by the annual percentage increase in
the retail price index (expressed as a decimal) for the United States, as reported in the most recent report of the U.S. Department of Labor for the preceding twelve-month period. Once increased, Executive’s annual salary cannot be decreased
without the written consent of Executive. Executive’s annual salary, as determined in accordance with this Section 3.1, is hereinafter referred to as his “Base Salary.” 

3.2 Performance Bonus. Executive shall, following the completion of each fiscal year of Company during the Term, be
eligible for a performance bonus in accordance with Company’s performance bonus plan. Executive shall also be eligible for additional equity and other incentive awards, at a level commensurate with his position and in accordance with the
policies and practices of the Company. 







 3.3 Employee Benefits. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to
participate in such of Company’s employee benefit plans and benefit programs, as may from time to time be provided by Company. In addition, during the Term, Executive shall be entitled to the following: 

(a) a housing allowance equal to $8,500 per month; 
 (b) a life insurance policy in the amount of five times the Executive’s Base Salary, provided that Executive assists Company in the procurement of such policy (including, without limitation,
submitting to any required physical examinations and completing accurately any applicable applications and or questionnaires); 

(c) fully comprehensive medical and dental coverage on a worldwide basis for the Executive, his spouse and dependents and an annual
medical examination for same; 
 (d) long term disability coverage, including coverage for serious illness, and full
compensation paid by Company during the period up to and until Executive begins receiving benefits under such long term disability plan. In the event that the generally applicable group long-term disability plan contains a limitation on benefits
that would result in Executive’s being entitled to benefit payments under such plan which are less than 50% of his salary, Company shall provide Executive with an individual disability policy paying a benefit amount that, when coupled with the
group policy benefit payable, would provide Executive with aggregate benefits in connection with his long-term disability equal to 50% of such salary (provided that, if an individual policy can not be obtained for such amount on commercially
reasonable rates and on commercially reasonable terms, Company shall provide Executive with a policy providing for the greatest amount of individual coverage that is available on such standard terms and rates). Provision of any individual disability
policy will also be contingent upon Executive being able to be insured at commercially reasonable rates and on commercially reasonable terms and upon Executive assisting Company in the procurement of such policy (including, without limitation,
submitting to any required physical examinations and completing accurately any applicable applications and or questionnaires); 

(e) payment from the company of an amount equal to 10% of Executive’s Base Salary each year to Executive as contribution to his
pension plans; and 
 (f) During the Term, Executive will be reimbursed for one return trip for his family to/from Bermuda each
calendar year. Executive’s wife may travel business class and his children may travel premium economy class. 
 3.4
Vacation. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to a paid vacation of 30 days per year (including 30 days during 2007). 
 3.5 Expense Reimbursement. Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him in connection with the performance of his duties hereunder in
accordance with its regular reimbursement policies as in effect from time to time. 







 4. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT 
 4.1 Death of Executive. If Executive dies during the Term, and for the year in which Executive dies, Company achieves the performance goals established in accordance with any incentive plan
in which Executive participates, Company shall pay Executive’s estate an amount equal to the bonus that Executive would have received had he been employed by Company for the full year, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of calendar days Executive was employed in such year and the denominator of which is 365. In addition, Executive’s spouse and dependents (if any) shall be entitled for a period of 36 months, to continue to receive medical benefits
coverage (as described in Section 3.3) at Company’s expense if and to the extent Company was paying for such benefits for Executive’s spouse and dependents at the time of Executive’s death.

during any period of 150 consecutive days, Company shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment upon 30 days’ prior written notice to Executive at any time during the continuation of such inability, in which event Company shall
thereafter be obligated to continue to pay Executive’s Base Salary for a period of 36 months, periodically in accordance with Company’s regular payroll practices and, within 30 days of such notice, shall pay any other amounts (including
salary, bonuses, expense reimbursement, etc.) that have been fully earned by, but not yet paid to, Executive under this Agreement as of the date of such termination. The amount of payments to Executive under disability insurance policies paid for by

expense medical benefits coverage (as described in Section 3.3) for Executive and Executive’s spouse and dependents (if any) if and to the extent Company was paying for such benefits to Executive and Executive’s spouse and dependents

(including salary, expense reimbursement, etc.) that have been fully earned by, but not yet paid to, Executive under this Agreement as of the date of such termination. “Cause” shall mean (a) fraud or dishonesty in connection with
Executive’s employment that results in a 







 
material injury to Company, (b) conviction of any felony or crime involving fraud or misrepresentation or (c) after Executive has received written notice of the specific material and

instructions of the Board of Directors after Executive has received at least prior written notice of the specific material and continuing failure to follow instructions and has failed to cure such failure within 30 days of receipt of the notice.

(b) Upon making the payments described in this Section 4.4, Company shall have no further obligation to Executive under this
Agreement. 
 (c) “Good Reason” shall mean the following: 

(i) material breach of Company’s obligations hereunder, provided that Executive shall have given written notice thereof to Company,
and Company shall have failed to remedy the circumstances within 30 days;

business office outside of Bermuda without the Executive’s prior agreement; or 
 (iii) any material reduction in
Executive’s duties or authority.

5.1 Restrictive Covenants. 
 (a) Executive acknowledges that he is one of a small number of key executives and that in such capacity, he will have access to confidential information of the Company and will engage in key client

 (b) Promptly following Executive’s termination of employment, Executive shall return to the Company all property of the
Company, and all documents, accounts, letters and papers of every description relating to the affairs and business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and copies thereof in Executive’s possession or under his control. 

(c) Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and obligations of Executive in Exhibit A and this Section 5.1 relate to
special, unique and extraordinary matters and that a violation of any of the terms of such covenants and obligations will cause the Company irreparable injury for which adequate remedies are not available at








 
law. Therefore, Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled to an injunction, restraining order or such other equitable relief (without the requirement to post bond) restraining Executive
from committing any violation of the covenants and obligations contained in Exhibit A and this Section 5.1. These injunctive remedies are cumulative and are in addition to any other rights and remedies the Company may have at law or in equity.

person, firm, company, business entity or other organization whatsoever (other than an affiliate of the Company) during the restriction periods set forth in Exhibit A, he shall promptly, and before entering into any contract with any such third
party, provide to such third party a full copy of Exhibit A and this Section 5.1 in order to ensure that such other party is fully aware of Executive’s obligations hereunder. 

5.2 Intellectual Property Rights. Executive recognizes and agrees that Executive’s duties for the Company may include
the preparation of materials, including written or graphic materials for the Company or its affiliate, and that any such materials conceived or written by Executive shall be done within the scope of his employment as a “work made for
hire.” Executive agrees that because any such work is a “work made for hire,” the Company (or the relevant affiliate of the Company) will solely retain and own all rights in said materials, including rights of copyright. Executive
agrees to disclose and assign to the Company his entire right, title and interest in and to all inventions and improvements related to the Company’s business or to the business of the Company’s affiliates (including, but not limited to,
all financial and sales information), whether patentable or not, whether made or conceived by him individually or jointly with others at any time during his employment by the Company hereunder. Such inventions and improvements are to become and
remain the property of the Company and Executive shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to effectuate the foregoing. 
 6.
MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1 Key Employee Insurance. Company shall have the right at its expense to purchase insurance on

in obtaining such insurance. 
 6.2 Indemnification/Litigation. Company shall indemnify and defend Executive
against all claims arising out of Executive’s activities as an officer or employee of Company or its affiliates to the fullest extent permitted by law and under Company’s organizational documents. At the request of Company, Executive shall
during and after the Term render reasonable assistance to Company in connection with any litigation or other proceeding involving Company or any of its affiliates. Company shall provide reasonable compensation to Executive for such assistance
rendered after the Term. 







 6.3 No Mitigation. In no event shall Executive be required to seek other
employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under this Agreement, and such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not Executive obtains other employment after termination of his employment hereunder.

 6.4 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision or part of any provision of
this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions or parts hereof. 
 6.5 Assignment; Benefit. This Agreement
shall not be assignable by Executive, and shall be assignable by Company only with the Executive’s consent and only to any person or entity which may become a successor in interest (by purchase of assets or stock, or by merger, or otherwise) to
Company in the business or substantially all of the business presently operated by it. Any Change in Control is deemed an assignment. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and the rights and obligations set forth herein shall inure to the benefit
of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto and each of their respective permitted successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators. 
 6.6 Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be sufficiently given if hand-delivered, sent by documented overnight delivery service or registered or certified mail,
postage prepaid, return receipt requested or by facsimile, receipt acknowledged, addressed as set forth below or to such other person and/or at such other address as may be furnished in writing by any party hereto to the other. Any such notice shall
