                      EXECUTIVE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
              PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK DEFERRAL AGREEMENT

THIS DEFERRAL AGREEMENT is entered into pursuant to the provisions of The
Progressive Corporation Executive Deferred Compensation Plan ("Plan"). All
capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in
the Plan.

1. Deferral Election. I hereby elect to defer receipt of all Performance-Based
Restricted Stock Awards granted to me in 2004 under The Progressive Corporation
2003 Incentive Plan. This election shall become effective as of the date the
restrictions applicable to such Awards (or portion thereof) expire and shall not
apply to any Award (or portion thereof) that fails to vest free of all
restrictions.

2. Method of Distribution. I hereby elect that any distribution of the balance
of the Deferral Account established pursuant to this Agreement made on account
of Termination of Employment be paid as follows: (CHECK ONE)

         Single lump sum payment   ( )

OR in

         Three annual installments ( )
         Five annual installments  ( )
         Ten annual installments   ( )

I understand that Plan distributions made on account for reasons other than
Termination of Employment will be made in a single lump sum payment, unless the
Plan provides otherwise. I understand that I may change the method of
distribution elected above at least one year prior to the date of distribution
to the extent permitted by the Plan.

3. Investment of Deferral Account. I understand that each amount credited to the
Deferral Account established pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be
invested in the Company Stock Fund for six months and one day following the date
that such amount is first credited to such Deferral Account. Thereafter, I
understand that I may elect to have such amount deemed to be invested in one or
more of the other Investment Funds available under the Plan. I also understand
that these deemed investments are merely devices used to determine the amount
payable to me under the Plan and do not provide me with any actual rights or
interests in any particular funds, securities or property of the Company, any
Affiliated Company or the Trust, in any stock of The Progressive Corporation or
in any Investment Funds offered under the Plan. I also understand that my right
to receive distributions under the Plan makes me a general creditor of the
Company with no greater right or priority than any other general creditor of the
Company.

4. Miscellaneous. I understand that this Agreement is subject to the terms,
conditions and limitations of the Plan, as in effect from time to time, in all
respects and that, except as expressly

permitted by the Plan, all elections made in this Agreement are irrevocable. I
acknowledge that I have received, read and understand the Plan Description dated

                                   ARTICLE III

                                  PARTICIPATION

                  3.1      ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION. Directors who shall be
eligible to participate in this Plan shall be those directors who are not
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                               DEFERRAL ELECTIONS

                  4.1      DEFERRAL ELECTIONS. In the first Plan Year this Plan
is in effect each director who is eligible to participate in this Plan may file
a Deferral Election with the Committee at any time prior to the grant of
Restricted Stock which is the subject of such Deferral Election; thereafter each
eligible director who elects to participate in this Plan for any Plan Year shall
file a Deferral Election with the Committee before the beginning of such Plan
Year, provided that any director who was not a director during the previous Plan
Year may file a Deferral Election with the Committee (i) within thirty (30) days
after he/she is elected to the Board and (ii) prior to the grant of Restricted
Stock which is the subject of such Deferral Election. The Deferral Election
shall be in the form prescribed by the Committee, and in

                                       -3-

<PAGE>

accordance with such rules and procedures as may be established by the Committee
in its sole discretion. Once made, a Participant's Deferral Election shall be
irrevocable. A Deferral Election shall be deemed to have been made when the
completed and executed election form is received and accepted by the Committee
or its designated agent. A separate Deferral Election shall be made by a
Participant with respect to all or part of each Eligible Restricted Stock Award
to be subject to a Deferral Election during such Plan Year. If an eligible
Participant fails to file an appropriate election form with respect to any
Eligible Restricted Stock Award before the beginning of a Plan Year (or before
the grant of Restricted Stock in the first year a director is eligible to
participate in this Plan), he or she shall be deemed to have elected not to make
a Deferral Election for such Plan Year.

                  4.2      EFFECT OF DEFERRAL ELECTION. If a Participant timely
files a Deferral Election with the Committee with respect to an Eligible
Restricted Stock Award, each share of Restricted Stock subject to a Deferral
Election will be automatically cancelled immediately prior to vesting and will
be replaced with a corresponding Stock Unit credited to the Participant's Stock
Account in accordance with Section 4.3. A timely Deferral Election with respect
to an Eligible Restricted Stock Award will defer the delivery to the Participant
of the Shares subject thereto until the end of the Participant's Designated
Deferral Period or such other time as this Plan may specify for distribution to
be made or begin.

                  4.3      STOCK ACCOUNTS. The Committee shall establish and
maintain a separate bookkeeping account in the name of each Participant who
makes a Deferral Election during the course of his or her participation in the
Plan. Each Participant's Stock Account shall consist of the sum of the Stock

                                       -4-

<PAGE>

Units credited to such Participant's Stock Account. Each Participant's Stock
Account shall be adjusted as follows:

                           (a)      As of the date of vesting of an Eligible
                  Restricted Stock Award to which a Participant's Deferral
                  Election is applicable, the Participant's Stock Account shall
                  be credited with that number of Stock Units equal to the
                  number of Shares to which the Deferral Election relates;

                           (b)      As of the date on which a dividend is paid
                  on (or any other distribution is made on account of) Shares,
                  the Stock Account shall be credited with that number of Stock
                  Units and fraction thereof equal to the number of Shares and
                  fraction thereof that the Dividend Equivalent Amount would
                  have purchased on that date based on the average of the high
                  and low trading prices of the Shares on that date.

                           (c)      As of the date on which Shares are
                  distributed to the Participant in accordance with Section 4.5,
                  the Participant's Stock Account shall be reduced by an equal
                  number of Stock Units, and fractions thereof, if applicable.

In the event of any stock split, reverse split, combination or other changes
that impact the Company's capital structure, or Share status, each Participant's
Stock Account and the number of Stock Units credited thereto shall be equitably
adjusted by the Committee in its sole discretion in a manner consistent with the
treatment of outstanding equity awards pursuant to the Company Directors Equity
Plan.

                  4.4      DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT AMOUNTS. Dividend Equivalent
Amounts with respect to the Participant's Stock Units shall result in the
Participant's Stock Account being credited with an additional number of Stock
Units and/or fraction thereof equal to the Dividend Equivalent Amount divided by
the average of the high and low trading prices of Shares on the date specified
in Section 4.3(b) and shall become subject to the Deferral Election applicable
to the Stock Units to which the Dividend Equivalent Amount relates.

                  4.5      DISTRIBUTION OF SHARES FROM STOCK ACCOUNTS. Subject
to any limitation set forth in this Plan or any other limitations as may be
established by the Committee in its sole

                                       -5-

<PAGE>

discretion, each Deferral Election shall specify the method of distribution with
respect to the Eligible Restricted Stock Award which is subject to the Deferral
Election. A Participant may elect to have his or her Stock Units with respect to
any Eligible Restricted Stock Award which is subject to a Deferral Election
distributed in any of the following number of installments following the
expiration of the earlier of (i) the termination of the Participant's service as
a director of the Company or (ii) the Participant's Designated Deferral Period
with respect to such Eligible Restricted Stock Award:

                  (1)      a single lump sum;

                  (2)      3 equal or substantially equal annual installments;

                  (3)      5 equal or substantially equal annual installments;
                           or

                  (4)      10 equal or substantially equal annual installments.

A Participant may elect a different method of distribution with respect to each
Eligible Restricted Stock Award that is subject to a Deferral Election.
Distributions will commence on the first business day of the month following the
month specified in the Deferral Election or, in the event of termination of a
Participant's service as a director, within thirty (30) days following such
termination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control occurs or a Participant
dies, a distribution with respect to all the Stock Units then held in the
Participant's Stock Account shall be made to him/her or his/her beneficiaries in
a single lump sum within thirty (30) days following the Change in Control or the
date the Committee receives written notice of his/her death.

Distributions with respect to the Stock Units credited to a Participant's Stock
Account under this Plan shall in all cases be satisfied by the delivery by the
Company of a number of Shares equal to the number of Stock Units with respect to
which such distribution is being made, except that any

                                       -6-

<PAGE>

fractional share shall be satisfied in cash, based on the average of the high
and low trading prices of Shares on the business day immediately preceding such
distribution.

If a Participant is receiving a distribution in installments, Dividend
Equivalent Amounts will continue to be credited with respect to the
undistributed Stock Units remaining in such Participant's Stock Account until
all such Stock Units have been distributed.

                                    ARTICLE V

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

                  5.1      BENEFICIARIES. Each Participant shall have the right
to designate in writing one or more beneficiaries to receive distributions in
the event of the Participant's death by filing with the Company a beneficiary
designation on a form provided by the Committee. The designated beneficiary or
beneficiaries may be changed by a Participant at any time prior to his or her
death by the delivery to the Committee of a new beneficiary designation form.
The change shall become effective only when the new beneficiary designation form
is received and accepted by the Committee; provided, however, any beneficiary
designation form received by the Committee after the designating Participant's
death will be disregarded. If no beneficiary shall have been designated, or if
no designated beneficiary shall survive the Participant, distribution pursuant
to this provision shall be made to the Participant's estate.

                  5.2      ADMINISTRATION. Except for those powers and duties
expressly reserved for the Board hereunder, the Committee will have full power
to administer the Plan. Such power includes, but is not limited to, the
following authority:

                                    (a)      To make and enforce such rules and
                  regulations as it deems necessary or proper for the efficient
                  administration of Plan;

                                    (b)      To interpret the Plan and to decide
                  all matters arising thereunder, including the right to resolve
                  or remedy any ambiguities, errors,

                                       -7-

<PAGE>

                  inconsistencies or omissions. All such interpretations shall
                  be final and binding on all parties;

                                    (c)      To determine the amount of
                  distributions to be made to each Participant and beneficiary
                  or other person in accordance with the provisions of the Plan;

                                    (d)      To authorize distributions under
                  the Plan;

                                    (e)      To keep such records and submit
                  such filings, elections, applications, returns or other
                  documents or forms as may be required under applicable law;

                                    (f)      To appoint such agents, counsel,
                  accountants and consultants as may be desirable in
                  administering the Plan;

                                    (g)      To exercise the other powers that
                  are expressly granted to it herein, or that are impliedly
                  necessary for it to carry out any of its responsibilities
                  hereunder; and

                                    (h)      By written instrument to delegate
                  any of the foregoing powers to one or more designated officers
                  or employees of the Company or other persons.

                  All decisions of the Committee or its designees shall be
binding upon all Participants and their respective legal representatives,
successors and assigns, and any and all persons claiming under or through any of
them. No member of the Committee or any of its designees shall be liable to any
Participant or to the Company for any determination made within the scope of the
administrative and interpretive functions provided in this Plan. No member of
the Committee shall participate in any discussion or determination involving his
or her own rights, benefits or obligations under this Plan.

                  5.3      REPORTS. Until a Participant's entire Stock Account
shall have been distributed in full, the Company will furnish or make available
to the Participant a written or electronic report, at least annually, setting
forth any changes in such Account and the amounts credited to such Account.

<PAGE>

                  5.4      ASSIGNMENT AND ALIENATION OF BENEFITS. The right of
each Participant to any account, benefit, Stock Unit, right or distribution
hereunder shall not, to the extent permitted by law, be subject in any manner to
attachment or other legal process for the debts of such Participant, and no
account, benefit, Stock Unit, right or distribution shall be subject to
anticipation, alienation, sale, pledge, transfer, assignment or encumbrance;
provided, however, the Company shall have the unrestricted right to set off
against or recover out of any distributions due a Participant, beneficiary or
other person at the time such distributions would otherwise have been made
hereunder, any amounts owed the Company or any subsidiary of the Company by such
Participant, beneficiary or other person.

                  5.5      DIRECTOR AND SHAREHOLDER STATUS. Nothing in the Plan
shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or its
shareholders to terminate any Participant's service as a director, at any time,
nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue as a director of the
Company or to be nominated for election to the Board at any time. The Plan will
not give any person any right or claim to any benefits under the Plan unless
such right or claim has specifically accrued under the terms of the Plan.
Participation in the Plan shall not create any rights in a Participant (or any
other person) as a shareholder of the Company until Shares are registered in the
name of, and distributed to, the Participant (or such other person).

                  5.6      ASSETS. No assets shall be segregated or earmarked in
respect of any Stock Units, Dividend Equivalent Payments or Stock Accounts. The
Plan and the crediting of Stock Accounts hereunder shall not constitute a trust
and shall be structured solely for the purpose of recording an unsecured
contractual obligation. All amounts payable pursuant to the terms of this Plan
shall be paid from the general assets of the Company and in no event shall any

                                       -9-

Participant or beneficiary have any claims or rights to any payment hereunder
that are superior to any claims or rights of any general creditor of the
Company.

                  5.7      TAXES. The Company shall not be responsible for the
tax consequences under federal, state or local law of any election made by any
Participant under the Plan. The Company shall have the right to make required
information reporting and/or to withhold or deduct from any distribution to be
made pursuant to this Plan, or to otherwise require prior to the distribution of
any amount hereunder, payment by the Participant of any federal, state or local
taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to any such distribution to
the Participant. In addition, to the extent the Company shall be required, prior
to the date on which distributions are to be made to a Participant under this
Plan, to withhold any taxes in connection with any Stock Units or Dividend
Equivalent Amounts credited to a Participant's accounts under this Plan, the
Participant agrees that the Company shall have the right to make such
withholding or to require direct payment of such withholding taxes by the
Participant to the Company.

                  5.8      AMENDMENT. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Plan, the Board may amend this Plan at any time for any reason without
liability to any Participant, beneficiary or other person for any such amendment
or for any other action taken pursuant to this Section 5.8, provided that no
such amendment shall be made retroactively in a manner that would deprive any
Participant of any rights or benefits which have accrued to his/her benefit
under the Plan as of the date such amendment is proposed to be effective, unless
such amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law.

                  5.9      TERMINATION. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Plan, the Board may terminate this Plan at any time for any reason without
any liability to any Participant, beneficiary or other person for any such
termination or for any other action taken pursuant to this

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

Section 5.9. Following termination of this Plan, and notwithstanding the
provisions of any Deferral Election entered into prior to such termination, no
additional deferrals may be made hereunder, but all existing Stock Accounts
shall be administered in accordance with the Plan, as in effect immediately
prior to termination, and shall be distributed in accordance with the terms of
this Plan and the applicable Deferral Elections, unless and until the Board
elects to accelerate distributions as provided below. At any time on or after
the effective date of termination of this Plan, the Board, in its sole
discretion, may elect to accelerate the distribution with respect to all Stock
Units in all Stock Accounts. Such distributions shall be made in a lump sum.
Upon completion of distributions to all Participants, or beneficiaries, as the
case may be, no Participant, beneficiary or person claiming under or through
them, will have any claims in respect of this Plan.

                  5.10     NOTICES TO COMMITTEE. The Committee shall designate
one or more addresses to which notices and other communications to the Committee
shall be sent with respect to this Plan. No notice or other communication shall
be considered to have been given to or received by the Committee until it has
been delivered to the Committee's attention at one of such designated addresses.

                  5.11     NO LIABILITY. Participation in the Plan is entirely
at the risk of each Participant. Neither the Company, the Committee, the Board
nor any other person associated with this Plan shall have any liability for any
loss or diminution in the value of Stock Accounts, or for any failure of this
Plan to effectively defer recognition of income or to achieve any Participant's
desired tax treatment or financial results.

                  5.12     FACILITY OF PAYMENT. If the Committee determines that
a Participant or beneficiary entitled to receive a payment under this Plan is
(at the time such payment is to be

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

made) a minor or physically, mentally or legally incompetent to receive such
payment and that another person or any institution has legal custody of such
minor or incompetent individual, the Committee may cause payment to be made to
such person or institution having custody of such Participant or beneficiary.
Such payment, to the extent made, shall operate as a complete discharge of
obligation by the Committee, the Company and the Board.

                  5.13     SECURITIES LAW PROVISIONS. The issuance and
distribution of Shares pursuant to this Plan will not be registered under the
Federal or any state securities laws. The Shares will be "restricted securities"
as that term is defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"Securities Act") and may not be sold or transferred absent registration under
the Securities Act or in accordance with an applicable exemption.

                  5.14     EFFECTIVE DATE. This Plan was adopted by the Board
effective as of February 1, 2004 (the "Effective Date") and shall remain in
effect until terminated pursuant to Section 5.9.

                  5.15     APPLICABLE LAW. This Plan shall be interpreted under
the laws of the State of Ohio.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to
be executed by its duly authorized officer as of the 1st day of February, 2004.
