April 5, 2013 (as amended, your “Employment Agreement”). 
 W I T N
E S S E T H : 
 WHEREAS, you currently serve as Chief Executive Officer of the
Company; 
 WHEREAS, you and the Company are parties to your Employment Agreement, which sets forth the terms and
conditions of your employment with the Company; 
 WHEREAS, you and the Company now desire to enter into a mutually
satisfactory arrangement concerning, among other things, succession planning, the terms of your service during a transition period, your continued employment through the expiration of the Term of Employment, and other matters related thereto;

 WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, you and the Company mutually agree to embody in this
Agreement the terms and conditions applicable to your continued employment with the Company; and 
 WHEREAS, this
Agreement contains a mutual release of claims and constitutes the mutually agreeable mutual general release of claims contemplated by Section 8(i) of your Employment Agreement, and by delivery hereof, the Company hereby notifies you, and you
hereby acknowledge your understanding, that your execution and non-revocation of this Agreement and the Second General Release (as defined below), are required for you to receive any of the payments and benefits set forth in Section 8(g) of
your Employment Agreement (other than the Accrued Obligations). 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
promises and mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are mutually acknowledged, you and the Company hereby agree as follows: 

Section 1. Termination of Employment. 
 (a) Termination Date. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the termination of your employment with the Company and its Affiliates (collectively, with the Company, the “Company
Group”) pursuant to Section 8(g) of your Employment Agreement, and from any other position you held as an officer, director, committee member, or other service provider of any member of the Company Group, and the expiration of the Term
of Employment, will become effective as of the close of business on February 22, 2014, or if earlier, the date of your death, a termination due to your Disability, a termination by the Company for Cause, or a








 
termination by you for any reason (in any such earlier case, an “Early Termination”), and the earlier of February 22, 2014 and the date of any Early Termination shall be
referred to herein as the “Termination Date.” Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, you shall not represent yourself after the Termination Date as being an employee, officer, director, agent, or representative of
the Company or any other member of the Company Group for any purpose. Notwithstanding anything in your Employment Agreement to the contrary, (x) the term “Good Reason” shall hereafter mean solely, without your consent, any
breach by the Company of any material provision of this Agreement, and (y) the term “Cause” shall hereafter have the meaning set forth in your Employment Agreement, disregarding clause (ii) thereof. Except as otherwise
provided in your Employment Agreement, the Termination Date shall be the termination date of your employment for purposes of participation in and coverage under all benefit plans and programs sponsored by or through the Company or any other member
of the Company Group. Except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein, the terms and conditions set forth in your Employment Agreement shall continue to govern your employment with the Company. In the event that any terms of this Agreement might be
deemed, at any time, to conflict with the terms of your Employment Agreement or would result in a duplication of benefits, the terms of this Agreement shall exclusively govern. 

(b) Resignation of Officer Positions. Notwithstanding anything in Section 1(a) above to the contrary, on July 1, 2013
you shall cease serving as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as a member of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) and from any other executive officer and director positions that you hold within the Company
Group as of such date. You and the Company agree that your transition is taking place pursuant to and shall be governed by Section 8(g) of your Employment Agreement except to the extent explicitly provided herein. You shall continue to be an
employee of the Company through the end of the Term of Employment, and such resignations shall in no respect be considered a termination of employment for any purpose under your Employment Agreement. During the period following July 1, 2013 and
ending on the last day of the Term of Employment (subject to any Early Termination), you shall continue to be employed in a non-executive capacity and shall have the title of Senior Advisor. 

Section 2. Compensation and Benefits. 
 (a) General. From the date on which this Agreement is executed and through the remainder of the Term of Employment, you shall continue to receive all compensation and benefits set forth in your
Employment Agreement, remain eligible to participate in the health insurance and other benefit plans of the Company in which you are currently eligible to participate, and continue to receive the perquisites and other personal benefits currently
provided to you, subject in all cases to the discretion of the Company to amend or terminate any or all of such plans or arrangements at any time and from time to time in accordance with the terms of your Employment Agreement; provided,
however, that you hereby acknowledge and agree that you shall not be entitled to receive any new grants of Awards on or after the date hereof. 
 (b) Continued Vesting. During the Term of Employment, unvested Awards shall continue to vest according to their terms and any applicable provisions contained in your Employment Agreement.

 Section 3. Opportunity for Review; Acceptance. 

You shall have from the Delivery Date until June 5, 2013 (the “Review Period”), to review
and consider this Agreement. To accept this Agreement and the terms and conditions contained herein, you must execute and date this Agreement where indicated below and return the executed copy of this Agreement to the Company prior to the expiration
of the Review Period, to the attention of the Company’s General Counsel. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement will not become effective or enforceable for a period of seven (7) calendar days following
the date of its execution and delivery to the Company (the “Revocation Period”), during which time you may further review and consider this Agreement and revoke your acceptance of this Agreement by notifying the Company’s
General Counsel in writing. To be effective, such revocation must be received no later than 5:00 p.m., Atlantic Time, on the last day of the Revocation Period. Provided that this Agreement is executed and you have not timely revoked it, the eighth
(8th) day following the date on which this Agreement
is executed and delivered to the Company shall be its effective date (the “Effective Date”). In the event of your failure to execute and deliver this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Review Period, or your subsequent
revocation of this Agreement during the Revocation Period, this Agreement will be null and void and of no effect, the Company will have no obligations hereunder, and you shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits under your Employment
Agreement that are conditioned upon the execution of a release of claims (which for purposes of clarification shall include all payments and benefits otherwise owing to you thereunder following the Termination Date, other than Accrued Obligations).

 Section 4. Mutual Release and Waiver of Claims. 

(a) Definition. As used in this Agreement, the term “claims” will include all claims, covenants, warranties,
promises, undertakings, actions, suits, causes of action, obligations, debts, accounts, attorneys’ fees, judgments, losses, and liabilities, of whatsoever kind or nature, in law, equity, or otherwise. 

(b) Your Release and Waiver of Claims. 
 (i) For and in consideration of the payments and benefits set forth in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, including the Company’s release and waiver of claims described in
Section 4(c) below, you, for and on behalf of yourself and your heirs, administrators, executors, and assigns, effective as of the date of your execution of this Agreement, do fully and forever release, remise, and discharge the Company, and
all other members of the Company Group, together with their respective officers, directors, partners, shareholders, employees, and agents (collectively, and with the Company and the Company Group, the “Company Parties”), from
any and all claims whatsoever up to and including the date of your execution of this Agreement that you had, may have had, or now have against any of the Company Parties, for or by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever arising out of or
attributable to your employment or the termination of your employment with the Company, whether for tort, breach of express or implied employment contract, intentional infliction of emotional distress, wrongful termination, unjust dismissal,
defamation, libel, or slander, or under any Bermuda, United States federal, state, or local law or regulation dealing with discrimination based on age, race, sex, national origin, handicap, religion, disability, or

sexual orientation. This release of claims includes, but is not limited to, all claims arising under any applicable Bermuda law or regulation or under the following United States statutes: the
Age Discrimination in Employment Act (the “ADEA”), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Family Medical Leave Act, and the Equal Pay Act, each as may be
amended from time to time, and all other United States federal, state, and local laws, the common law, and any other purported restriction on an employer’s right to terminate the employment of an employee. The parties intend the release
contained herein to be a general release of any and all claims to the fullest extent permissible by law. 
 (ii)
You acknowledge and agree that as of the date you execute this Agreement, you have no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that give rise or could give rise to any claims under any of the laws listed in the preceding paragraph. 

(iii) By executing this Agreement, you specifically release all claims relating to your employment and its termination
under the ADEA, a United States federal statute that, among other things, prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in employment and employee benefit plans. 
 (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall be a waiver of your rights with respect to payment of amounts and other benefits under this Agreement or any claims that cannot be
waived by law. 
 (c) The Company’s Release and Waiver of Claims. For and in consideration of your continuing
obligations to the Company pursuant to this Agreement and your Employment Agreement as well as your waiver and release of claims described in Section 4(b) above, the Company, on behalf of itself and the Company Parties, hereby releases and
forever discharges you from any and all claims whatsoever up to the Delivery Date that it had, may have had, or now has for or by reason of any claim arising out of or attributable to your employment or, to the maximum extent permitted by law,
service as a member of the Board or the termination of your employment or, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such Board service with the Company, or pursuant to any Bermuda, United States federal, state, or local law or regulation (excluding
in all events any claims any of the Company Parties may have in the future for a breach of this Agreement or Employment Agreement or based on any criminal actions by you). 
 (d) Second General Release. For and in consideration of the payments and benefits set forth in this Agreement, you agree to execute the release and waiver of claims set forth on Exhibit A
hereto and made a part hereof (the “Second General Release”). You hereby agree that the Second General Release may not be executed by you earlier than February 22, 2014 (or in the case of an Early Termination due to your
death or Disability, the date of such Early Termination), or later than March 15, 2014, and in the event you do not timely execute the Second General Release, or you revoke the Second General Release pursuant to its terms, you shall not be
entitled to any further payments or benefits (other than Accrued Obligations) from any member of the Company Group, including without limitation any compensation and benefits set forth in Sections 7(a) and 7(b) of this Agreement or the
Company’s agreement to waive and release you from claims as set forth in the Second General Release. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of an Early Termination due to your death or Disability, your obligations herein and in Exhibit
A hereto to execute and not revoke the Second General Release may be satisfied on your behalf by your estate or a person having legal power of attorney over your affairs.

 Section 5. No Suit. 

Each of you and the Company represents and warrants that you and it, respectively, have not previously filed, and to the maximum extent
permitted by law agree not to file, a claim against the other party (which, for purposes of this Section 5, includes the Company Parties), respectively, regarding any of the claims respectively released herein. If, notwithstanding this
representation and warranty, either you or the Company has filed or files such a claim, the filing party agrees to cause such claim to be dismissed with prejudice and shall pay any and all costs required in obtaining dismissal of such claim,
including without limitation the attorneys’ fees and expenses of any of the parties against whom such a claim has been filed. You acknowledge that this paragraph shall not apply, however, to any non-waivable right to file a charge with the
United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”), provided, however, that if the EEOC were to pursue any claims relating to your employment with the Company, you agree that you shall not be entitled to
recover any monetary damages or any other remedies or benefits as a result and that this Agreement and the payments and benefits described in Section 8(g) of your Employment Agreement will control as the exclusive remedy and full settlement of

meaning of this Agreement or its terms, and that you are not acting under the influence of any medication, drug, or chemical of any type in entering into this Agreement; 

(c) Are specifically agreeing to the terms of the release contained in this Agreement because the Company has agreed to
provide you with the payments and benefits described in Section 8(g) of your Employment Agreement (other than the Accrued Obligations) and because of the Company’s agreement to waive and release you from claims as set forth in
Section 4(c) above, which the Company has agreed to provide because of your agreement to accept it in full settlement of all possible claims you might have or ever had that are released hereunder, and because of your execution of this
Agreement; 
 (d) Acknowledge that but for your execution of this Agreement, you would not be entitled to the
payments or benefits described in Section 8(g) of your Employment Agreement (other than the Accrued Obligations) or the Company’s waiver and release of claims described in Section 4(c) above; 

  
 -5-

rights or claims under the ADEA that may arise after the date you execute this Agreement;

have had the entire Review Period in which to review and consider this Agreement, and that if you execute this Agreement prior to the expiration of the Review Period, you have voluntarily and knowingly waived the remainder of the Review Period;

you do not revoke such execution prior to the Effective Date, you have knowingly and voluntarily agreed to this Agreement’s becoming effective;
