NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT

Pursuant to your Non-qualified Stock Option Grant Notice (“Grant Notice”) and this Non-qualified Stock Option Agreement (the “Agreement”), the National General Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) has granted you an Option under its 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase the number of Shares of the Company's common stock indicated in your Grant Notice at the Exercise Price indicated in your Grant Notice.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan or your Grant Notice.

The details of your Option are as follows:

		
	1.
	Non-qualified Stock Option. The Option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

		
	2.
	Term: The term of your Option will expire at the close of business on the Expiration Date (no later than the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date). Your Option will expire earlier if you incur a Termination of Service, as described below.

		
	3.
	Vesting. You must be employed by the Company continuously through and up to a Vesting Date specified in your Grant Notice to vest in the portion of your Option as specified in the Vesting Schedule. If you incur a Termination of Service prior to a Vesting Date, then you will forfeit the nonvested portion of your Option that you then hold on the date of such Termination of Service, except as otherwise expressly provided in Sections 5, 7 and 8 below. Your Option is only exercisable before it expires and then only with respect to the vested portion of the Option. You may exercise this Option, in whole or in part, to purchase a whole number of vested shares in accordance with the Plan and this Agreement.

		
	4.
	Number of Shares and Exercise Price. The number of Shares subject to your Option and your Exercise Price per share referenced in your Grant Notice may be adjusted from time to time to reflect the impact of certain corporate transactions and events as specified in Section 4.3 of the Plan.

		
	5.
	Termination of Service not Due to Death, Disability, Retirement or Cause. If you incur a Termination of Services for reasons other than Death, Disability, Retirement or Cause, then your Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the 90th day after your termination date (or the next business day if the 90th day after your termination date falls on a weekend or holiday). If you die during the 90-day period in connection with a regular termination of Employment described above, and a vested portion of your Option has not yet been exercised, then your Option will instead expire on the date 12 months after your termination date.

		
	6.
	Termination for Cause. If you incur a Termination of Service for Cause, then you shall immediately forfeit all rights to your Option and the Option shall expire immediately upon your Termination of Service.

		
	7.
	Effect of Termination of Service Prior to Vesting Date.

		
	a.
	Termination of Service due to death or Disability. If you incur a Termination of Service because of your death or Disability, your Option will automatically vest as to the portion of the Option that would have vested had you remained an Employee for the 12-month period immediately following your death or Disability, as applicable, and your Option will expire at the close of business at Company headquarters on the date twelve (12) months after the date of death or Disability, as applicable (or the next business day if the date twelve (12) months after the date of death falls on a weekend or holiday). The remaining portion of your Option that remains unvested at the time of your death or Disability will be forfeited. In the case of your death, your Beneficiary may exercise the vested portion of your Option during the twelve (12) month period following your death.

		
	b.
	Termination of Service by reason of Retirement. If you incur a Termination of Service by reason of

If any provision of this Award Agreement, your Grant Notice or the Plan causes your RSUs to be subject to the requirements of Section 409A, or could otherwise cause you to recognize income or be subject to the interest and penalties under Section 409A, then the 

3

                                                

provision shall have no effect or, to the extent practicable, the Committee may, in its sole discretion and without the Participant’s consent, modify the provision to (i) comply with, or avoid being subject to Section 409A, or to avoid the incurrence of any taxes, interest and penalties under Section 409A, and/or (ii) maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent and economic benefit to you of the applicable provision without materially increasing the cost to the Company or contravening the provisions of Section 409A. This Section 13 does not create an obligation of the Company to modify this Award Agreement, your Grant Notice or the Plan and does not guarantee that your RSUs will not be subject to taxes, interest and penalties under Section 409A.

		
	b.
	If you are a “specified employee” as defined under Code Section 409A and your RSUs are to be settled on account of your separation from service (for reasons other than death) and such RSUs constitutes “deferred compensation” as defined under Code Section 409A, then any portion of your RSUs that would otherwise be settled during the six-month period commencing on your separation from service shall be settled as soon as practicable following the conclusion of the six-month period (or following your death if it occurs during such six-month period).

		
	c.
	Your Termination of Service shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of the Award Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits that are considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A upon or following a Termination of Service, unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and the payment thereof prior to a “separation from service” could otherwise cause you to recognize income or be subject to the interest and penalties under Section 409A.

		
	13.
	Transferability.
