                                ACE LIMITED 1995
                             OUTSIDE DIRECTORS PLAN

                    (AS AMENDED THROUGH THE SIXTH AMENDMENT)

                                    SECTION 1

                                     GENERAL

     1.1. Purpose. The ACE Limited 1995 Outside Directors Plan (the "Plan") has
been established by ACE Limited (the "Company") to promote the interests of the
Company and its shareholders by enhancing the Company's ability to attract and
retain the services of experienced and knowledgeable directors and by
encouraging such directors to acquire an increased proprietary interest in the
Company.

     1.2. Operation and Administration. The operation and administration of the
Plan shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4. Capitalized terms in the
Plan shall be defined as set forth in Section 7 or elsewhere in the Plan.

                                    SECTION 2

                                 RETAINER AWARDS

     2.1. General.

     (a)  For each Plan Year, each Director who is an Eligible Director on the
          first day of that Plan Year shall be granted a "Retainer Award" for
          the year, which shall be in the form of shares of Stock having a Fair
          Market Value of $35,000. Except as otherwise provided in this
          subsection 2.1, the Retainer Award for any Plan Year shall be made as
          of the first business day of that Plan Year (the "Award Date" for that
          Retainer Award), and the Fair Market Value of the Stock so awarded
          shall be determined as of that date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
          for the Plan Year beginning in 1999 (the "1999 Plan Year"), the
          Retainer Award for such Plan Year shall include an additional award
          (the "1999 Additional Award"), in the form of shares having a Fair
          Market Value of $8,750 (and for the 1999 Plan Year, reference in the
          Plan to the "Retainer Award" shall include reference to such 1999
          Additional Award). Except as otherwise provided in this subsection
          2.1, the 1999 Additional Award shall be made as of the first business
          day following the adoption of the Second Amendment of the Plan (the
          "1999 Additional Award Date"), and the Fair Market Value of the Stock
          so awarded shall be determined as of that date.

     (b)  If a Director becomes an Eligible Director during a Plan Year, on a
          date other than the first day of the Plan Year, he shall be granted a
          Retainer Award for the year, which shall be in the form of shares of
          Stock having a Fair Market Value

<PAGE>

          equal to $35,000, subject to a pro-rata reduction to reflect the
          portion of the Plan Year prior to the date on which he becomes an
          Eligible Director; provided, however, that with respect to the 1999
          Plan Year, such Retainer Award subject to pro rata reduction shall
          include the 1999 Additional Award. A Director's Retainer Award under
          this paragraph (b) shall be made on the first business day on which he
          is an Eligible Director (the "Award Date" for that Retainer Award),
          and the Fair Market Value of the Stock so awarded shall be determined
          as of that date; provided, however, that if a Director becomes
          eligible for a Retainer Award under this Paragraph (b) on a date
          before the 1999 Additional Award Date, then that portion of the 1999
          Additional Award to which he becomes entitled shall be made as of the
          1999 Additional Award Date, and the Fair Market Value of the Stock so
          awarded shall be determined as of that date.

     (c)  The shares awarded under this subsection 2.1 shall be subject to the
          vesting provision set forth in subsection 2.2.

     (d)  A Participant may elect to defer receipt of his Retainer Awards in
          accordance with Supplement A of the Plan.

     2.2. Vesting. A Participant who ceases to be a Director shall forfeit the
Retainer Award which is not vested on his Date of Termination; provided,
however, that (i) if a Participant ceases to be a Director by reason of his
death or Disability, any portion of the Retainer Award that is not then vested
shall vest on his Date of Termination; and (ii) any portion of the Retainer
Award that is held by an individual serving as a Director on the date of a
Change in Control that is not then vested shall vest on the date of the Change
of Control. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection 2.2, a Participant
shall become vested in 100% of the Retainer Award shares for any Plan Year on
the last day of that Plan Year; provided that a Participant shall become vested
in the Retainer Award shares for the Plan Year only if such Participant's Date
of Termination does not occur prior to the last day of that year.

     2.3. Limit on Stock. Stock granted as a Retainer Award shall be subject to
the following:

     (a)  Such Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or
          otherwise encumbered prior to the date it is vested.

     (b)  Each certificate issued in respect of such Stock shall be registered
          in the name of the Participant and deposited, together with a stock
          power endorsed in blank, with the Company.

     (c)  Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Participant as owner of
          shares of Stock granted to him as a Retainer Award shall have all the
          rights of a shareholder, including but not limited to the right to
          vote such shares and the right to receive all dividends paid on such
          shares; provided, however, that no dividends

                                       -2-

<PAGE>

          shall be payable to or for the benefit of a Participant with respect
          to record dates for such dividends occurring on or after the date, if
          any, on which the Participant has forfeited the Stock.

                                    SECTION 3

                            COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN AWARDS

     (a)  Each Eligible Director who serves as the chairman of any committee of
          the Board (a "Committee Chairman") during any Plan Year Quarter shall
          be granted a Committee Chairman Award as of the first business day of
          the next following Plan Year Quarter, which shall be the "Award Date"
          for such award.

     (b)  The amount of the Committee Chairman Award shall be the number of
          shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value (determined as of the Award
          Date) of $1,250 per quarter. If an individual serves as a Committee
          Chairman for less than a full Plan Year Quarter, then the size of the
          Committee Chairman Award shall be subject to a pro-rata reduction to
          reflect the portion of the Plan Year Quarter during which he was not
          Committee Chairman.

     (c)  The shares granted as a Committee Chairman Award under this Section 3
          shall be fully vested at the time of award.

     (d)  A Participant may elect to defer receipt of his Committee Chairman
          Awards in accordance with Supplement A of the Plan.

     (e)  A Participant may elect to receive his Committee Chairman Award in
          cash.

                                   SECTION 3A

                                 MEETING AWARDS

     (a)  Each Eligible Director who is otherwise eligible to receive cash
          compensation for attendance at a meeting of the Board or for
          attendance at a meeting of any committee of the Board, may in lieu of
          such cash compensation, elect to receive to such compensation in
          Stock, and such compensation payable in Stock shall be considered the
          grant of a "Meeting Award." An election to receive a Meeting Award in
          lieu of cash compensation must be made in accordance with the
          requirements of paragraph (c) of this Section 3A. In the event that
          one or more committee or Board meetings are scheduled to occur within
          four consecutive business days of each other (the "Consecutive
          Meetings"), then the Meeting Awards for all such Consecutive Meetings
          shall be granted as of the first business day coincident with or next
          following the date of the last scheduled meeting in such four day
          period, which shall be the "Award Date" for such award. (A committee
          or Board meeting that occurs within four consecutive business days of

                                       -3-

<PAGE>

          some but not all the Consecutive Meetings, or that is scheduled after
          the Meeting Awards for the prior meetings have been issued, will not
          be part of the preceding group of Consecutive Meetings, although, if
          applicable it could be part of a another group of Consecutive
          Meetings.) All other Meeting Awards shall be granted as of the first
          business day coincident with or next following the date of the Board
          or committee meeting to which it relates, which shall be the "Award
          Date" for such award.

     (b)  The amount of the Meeting Award for attendance at a Board meeting
          shall be the number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value
          (determined as of the Award Date) of $3,000 per meeting. The amount of
          the Meeting Award for attendance at a committee meeting shall be the
          number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value (determined as of
          the Award Date) of $1,000 per meeting.

     (c)  Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph (c), an election to
          receive a Meeting Award in lieu of cash compensation for attendance at
          Board and committee meetings during a Plan Year shall be filed at such
          time and in such form as established by the Committee. An individual
          who becomes an Eligible Director on a date other than the first day of
          the Plan Year may elect to receive a Meeting Award in lieu of cash
          compensation for the remainder of the year by filing a Meeting Award
          election filed at such time and in such form as established by the
          Committee. An election to receive a Meeting Award rather than cash
          compensation shall apply to all Board and committee meetings in the
          Plan Year for which the election is made, provided, however, that such
          election shall be effective only with respect to compensation for
          meetings occurring after the date such election is filed.

     (d)  The shares granted as a Meeting Award under this Section 3A shall be
          fully vested at the time of award.

     (e)  A Participant may elect to defer receipt of his Meeting Awards in
          accordance with Supplement A of the Plan.

     (f)  If a Participant has made no election under this Section 3A with
          respect to the form of payment of compensation for his attendance at
          Board or committee meetings, then such compensation shall be paid in
          cash.

                                   SECTION 3B

                                  OPTION AWARDS

     3B.1. General.

     (a)  For each Plan Year, each Director who is an Eligible Director on the
          first day of that Plan Year shall be granted an "Option Award" which
          shall entitle the Eligible

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

          Director to purchase shares of Stock. The number of shares subject to
          the Option Award with respect to the Option Award granted in the Plan
          Year beginning in 2001 (the "2001/2002 Plan Year") and in each Plan
          Year thereafter shall be 4,000, unless and until the number of shares
          underlying an Option Award in any subsequent Plan Year is modified by
          the Board. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection 3B.1, the
          Option Award for any Plan Year shall be granted as of the first
          business day of that Plan Year (the "Award Date" for that Option
          Award).

     (b)  If a Director becomes an Eligible Director during a Plan Year, on a
          date other than the first day of the Plan Year, he shall be granted an
          Option Award which shall entitle the Eligible Director to purchase
          shares of Stock. The number of shares of Stock subject to the Option
          Award shall be the number which would have been subject to the Option
          if he had become an Eligible Director on the first day of the Plan
          Year, except that such number of shares shall be subject to a pro rata
          reduction to reflect the portion of the Plan Year prior to the date on
          which he becomes an Eligible Director. In no event shall an Option
          Award be granted with respect to a fractional share, and the amount of
          any pro-rata reduction shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. An
          Option Award made under this paragraph (b) shall be granted on the
          first business day on which the Director is an Eligible Director (the
          "Award Date" for that Option Award).

     (c)  In addition to any Option Award granted in accordance with paragraphs
          (b) or (c) of this subsection 3B.1, an individual who is an Eligible
          Director on the first day of the 2001/2002 Plan Year shall be granted
          an Option Award, entitling him to purchase 2,000 shares of Stock. Such
          Option Award shall be granted as the first business day of the
          2001/2002 Plan Year (the "Award Date" for that Option Award).

     3B.2. Terms of Option Awards.

     (a)  An Option Award shall entitle the Director to purchase shares of Stock
          at a per-share price equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the Fair
          Market Value of a share of Stock as of the Award Date; or (ii) the par
          value of a share of Stock.

     (b)  The full purchase price of each share of Stock purchased upon the
          exercise of any Option Award shall be paid at the time of such
          exercise and, as soon as practicable thereafter, a certificate
          representing the shares so purchased shall be delivered to the person
          entitled thereto.

     (c)  The Option Award purchase price shall be payable in cash or in shares
          of Stock (valued at Fair Market Value as of the day of exercise), or
          in any combination thereof. A Director may elect to pay the purchase
          price upon the exercise of an

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

          Option Award granted pursuant to this Section 3B through a cashless
          exercise procedure established by the Company.

     (d)  The Option Award granted to an Eligible Director shall become
          exercisable with respect to one-third of the shares covered by the
          Option Award on the last day of the Plan Year for which it was
          granted; with respect to an additional one-third of the shares covered
          by the Option Award on the last day of the Plan Year next following
          the Plan Year for which it was granted; and with respect to the
          remaining one-third of the shares covered by the Option Award on the
          last day of the next following Plan Year; provided, however, that such
          portion of the Option Award shall become exercisable only if such
          Director's Date of Termination does not occur on or prior to the last
          day of the applicable Plan Year. Notwithstanding any provision of the
          Plan to the contrary, the foregoing vesting schedule shall be subject
          to acceleration, to the extent permitted by the Committee, in the
          event of the Participant's death, Disability, retirement, or
          involuntary termination or in the event of a Change in Control.

     (e)  An Option Award shall expire on the earlier of: (i) the ten-year
          anniversary of the Award Date or (ii) the one-year anniversary of the
          Director's Date of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
          Committee may provide that, following a Director's Date of
          Termination, an Option Award shall expire on any date later than the
          one-year anniversary of the Director's Date of Termination, provided
          that such date of expiration may not be later than the ten-year
          anniversary of the date on which the Option Award was granted. No
          Option shall be exercisable following a Director's Date of Termination
          except to the extent that the Option is exercisable prior to, or
          becomes exercisable as of, such Date of Termination.

                                    SECTION 4

                          OPERATION AND ADMINISTRATION

     4.1. Effective Date. Subject to the approval of the shareholders of the
Company at the Company's 1996 annual meeting of its shareholders, the Plan shall
be effective as of the Effective Date; provided, however, that to the extent
that Awards are made under the Plan prior to its approval by shareholders, they
shall be contingent on approval of the Plan by the shareholders of the Company.
The Plan shall be unlimited in duration and, in the event of Plan termination,
shall remain in effect as long as any shares of Stock awarded under it are
outstanding and not fully vested, or any Option Awards granted under it are
outstanding and not exercised; provided, however, that no new Awards shall be
made under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. With
respect to any individual who is an Eligible Director on the Effective Date,
receipt of Awards under the Plan shall be contingent on the Director
relinquishing, as of the Effective Date, and subject to this Plan being approved
by the shareholders at the 1996 annual meeting, the ownership rights to any
shares of Stock awarded to

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

him by the Company before the Effective Date, but only with respect to the
shares that had not vested on or before February 1, 1996.

     4.2. Shares Subject to Plan. The shares of Stock with respect to which
Awards may be made under the Plan shall be shares currently authorized but
unissued shares, or shares purchased in the open market by a direct or indirect
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (as determined by the Chairman or any
Executive Vice President of the Company). The Company may contribute to the
subsidiary an amount sufficient to accomplish the purchase in the open market of
the shares of Stock to be so acquired (as determined by the Chairman or any
Executive Vice President of the Company). The number of shares of Stock
available for Awards under the Plan during any fiscal year of the Company shall
equal:

     (a)  0.5% of the adjusted average of the outstanding Stock, as that number
          is determined by the Company to calculate fully diluted earnings per
          share for the preceding fiscal year;

     REDUCED BY

     (b)  any shares of Stock granted pursuant to Awards under the Plan, and any
          shares of Stock subject to any outstanding award under the Plan;

provided however, that no reduction shall be made in the number of shares
otherwise available under paragraph 4.2(a) for any shares of Stock subject to an
Award under the Plan to the extent that such shares are not issued by reason of
a lapse, forfeiture, expiration or termination of the Award for any reason
without issuance of shares (whether or not cash or other consideration is paid
to a Participant in respect of such shares).

     4.3. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Stock shall be distributed
under the Plan and, instead, the Fair Market Value of such fractional share
shall be distributed in cash, with the Fair Market Value determined as of the
date the fractional share would otherwise have been distributable; provided,
however, that in the event that the Participant elects to defer receipt of any
Award under the Plan pursuant to Supplement A of the Plan, the fractional
amounts will be calculated and recorded in the Participant's Stock Account. The
subsequent distribution of a Participant's deferred Stock Awards shall be
subject to payment in whole Shares with the fractional Shares distributed in
cash, with the Fair Market Value determined as of the date the fractional share
would otherwise have been distributable. For purposes of the foregoing sentence,
if more than one Award or type of Award under the Plan is to be distributed in
Shares on a single date, such Shares shall be aggregated prior to determining
the number of whole and fractional shares to be distributed.

     4.4. Adjustments to Shares.

     (a)  If the Company shall effect any subdivision or consolidation of shares
          of Stock or other capital readjustment, payment of stock dividend,
          stock split, combination of

                                       -7-

<PAGE>

          shares or recapitalization or other increase or reduction of the
          number of shares of Stock outstanding without receiving compensation

An individual who becomes an Eligible Director on a date other than the first

                                  SECTION A-2

                                    ACCOUNTS

Stock Account. A Stock Account shall be maintained on behalf of each Participant
who elects to defer the distribution of shares of Stock under this Supplement A,
for the period during which delivery of shares of Stock is deferred.
A Participant's Stock Account shall be subject to the following adjustments:

The Stock Account will be credited with Share Units equal to the number of
shares of Stock as to which the Participant has elected deferred receipt, with
such Share Units to be credited as of the date on which the shares would
otherwise have been delivered to him in the absence of the deferral.

As of each dividend record date for the Stock following the date any Share Units
are credited to the Participant's Stock Account, and prior to the date of
distribution of shares of Stock with respect to those Share Units, the
Participant's Stock Account shall be credited with additional Share Units
(including fractional Share Units) equal to (i) the amount of the dividend that
would be payable with respect to the number of shares of Stock equal to the
number of Share Units credited to the Participant's Stock Account on the
dividend record date; divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock
on the date of payment of the dividend.

As of the date of any distribution of shares of Stock with respect to a
Participant's Stock Account under Section A-3, the Share Units credited to a
Participant's Stock Account shall be reduced by the number of Shares so
distributed to the Participant.

Cash Account. A Cash Account shall be maintained on behalf of each Participant
who elects to defer the distribution of cash under this Supplement A, for the
period during which delivery of cash is deferred. A Participant's Cash Account
shall be credited with interest, with the applicable interest rate for any
calendar year equal to the prime rate as of the first business day of that
calendar year, as reported in The Wall Street Journal. As of the date of any
distribution with respect to a Participant's Account under Section A-3, the
balance credited to a Participant's Account shall be reduced by the amount of
the distribution to the Participant.

Statement of Accounts. As soon as practicable after the end of each Plan Year,
the Company shall provide each Participant having one or more Accounts under the
Plan with a statement of the transactions in his Accounts during that year and
his Account balances as of the end of the year.

                                   SECTION A-3

                                  DISTRIBUTIONS

General.

Subject to the terms of this Section A-3, a Participant shall specify, as part
of his deferral election with respect to Stock Awards, and as part of his
deferral election with respect to Cash Compensation, the time of distribution of
the amounts deferred pursuant to such election; provided, however, that
distribution of shares of Stock, and of Cash Compensation, shall be made in a
lump sum not later than the first anniversary of the date on which the
individual ceases to be a Director; and further provided that a Participant may
elect only a single date for distribution of all of his deferred Stock Awards
and only a single date for distribution of all of his deferred Cash Compensation
under the Plan, provided that the distribution date for the Participant's
deferred Stock Awards and for deferred Cash Compensation may differ.

At the time of distribution of deferred shares in accordance with the
Participant's election, the Participant shall receive a distribution of shares
of Stock equal to the number of share units credited to his Account immediately
prior to such distribution. If the scheduled distribution date would otherwise
occur after a dividend record date but before the payment of the dividend,
distribution shall be deferred (not more than 30 days) until the dividend is
paid.

At the time of distribution of Cash Compensation in accordance with the
Participant's election, the Participant shall receive the amount then credited
to the Participant's Cash Account as of the date of distribution.

In determining a Participant's right to distributions of stock under this
Section A-3, the vesting provisions of subsection 2.2 of the Plan shall apply to
the share units credited to the Participant's Stock Account as though each unit
represented one share of Stock, and with all units attributable to payment of
dividends being fully vested as of the date they are credited to the
Participant's Stock Account.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section A-3, if any share units
are credited to a Participant's Stock Account as of the date of a Change in
Control, the Participant shall receive a distribution of shares of Stock equal
to the number of such share units. Such distribution shall be in settlement of
the Participant's rights to distribution under this Section A-3, provided that
if the record date for a dividend is prior to a Change in Control, but the
dividend payment is to occur after such Change in Control, the additional shares
attributable to such dividends shall be distributed as soon as practicable
thereafter.

Limitation of Implied Rights. Neither the Participant nor any other person
shall, by reason of deferral of shares of Stock or the deferral of Cash
Compensation, under this Supplement A, acquire any right in or title to any
assets, funds or property of the Company whatsoever prior to the date such
shares are distributed. A Participant shall have only a contractual right to the
shares and cash, if any, distributable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets
of the Company. Nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guarantee by
the Company that the assets of the Company shall be sufficient to provide any
benefits to any person.
