 Introduction 
 Background and History 
 Effective as of January 1, 1998, the First American Corporation (“Company”) originally established
The First American Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (“Plan”), formerly known as The First American Financial Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan. 
 The Plan is intended to constitute a plan which is unfunded and maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation to a select group of management or highly compensated employees and is intended
to meet the exemptions provided in ERISA sections 201(2), 301(a)(3), and 401(a)(1), as well as the requirements of Department of Labor Regulations section 2520.104-23. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted so as to meet the
requirements of these exemptions and the regulations. 
 Restatement of Plan 
 The Company is now amending the Plan to comply with the requirements of Code section 409A and the guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Treasury Department thereunder and to make certain
other clarifying or technical amendments to the Plan. 
 Plan provisions in effect prior to 2005 are reflected in Appendix A to this Plan and are referenced
in this restatement as the Pre-409A Plan Document. Nothing contained in this restatement shall be interpreted as amending or otherwise modifying any provision under the Pre-409A Plan Document. For ease of reference, however, certain provisions in
the restated Plan document other than Appendix A do make reference to or describe Plan provisions in effect prior to 2005. 
 Application of Plan 

 Certain amounts, designated as amounts in a “Grandfathered Account” were earned and vested under this Plan on or before December 31, 2004.
As a result, such amounts are not subject to Code section 409A. Amounts that are earned and vested after December 31, 2004 are subject to Code section 409A. Since January 1, 2005, the Plan has been administered in good-faith
compliance with all available Code section 409A guidance, including, but not limited to, proposed regulations issued September 29, 2005 and final regulations issued April 17, 2007. On or after the Effective Date, the Plan Committee
shall administer this Plan in a manner designed to comply with Code section 409A and the Plan Committee shall disregard any Plan provision if the Plan Committee determines that application of such provision would subject the Participant to an
additional excise tax under Code section 409(a)(1)(B).

 Article 1. Title, Definitions and Construction 
 1.1 Title 
 This Plan shall be known as “The First American Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan.”

 1.2 Definitions 
 Whenever the following words and
phrases are used in this Plan, with the first letter capitalized, they shall have the meanings specified below. 
  

	(a)	“Account” means a Participant’s post-2004 Deferral Account. 

  

	(b)	“Affiliate” means: 

  

	 	(1)	Any entity or organization that, together with the Company, is part of a controlled group of corporations, within the meaning of Code section 414(b); 

 

	 	(2)	Any trade or business that, together with the Company, is under common control, within the meaning of Code section 414(c); and 

  

	 	(3)	Any entity or organization that is required to be aggregated with the Company, pursuant to Code sections 414(m) or 414(o). 

 For purposes of this Plan, however, the term “Affiliate” shall be interpreted such that the phrase “at least 50 percent” will be
substituted for the phrase “at least 80 percent” in each place that it appears in Code section 1563. Additionally, an entity shall be an Affiliate only during the period when the entity has the required relationship, under this
Plan section 1.2, with the Company. 
  

	(c)	“Base Salary” means a Participant’s annual base salary and all other remuneration for services rendered to a Participating Company, prior to reduction for any
salary contributions to a plan established pursuant to Code sections 125 or 401(k), including payments from other non-qualified deferred compensation plans sponsored by a Participating Company, but excluding bonus or other incentive payments or
income derived from equity-based compensation. 

  

	(d)	“Beneficiary” means the person, persons or entity designated by a Participant to receive the benefits described in this Plan in the event of the Participant’s
death. 

 Each Participant shall designate in writing consistent with Plan section 1.5 and in accordance with procedures
established by the Plan Committee the person or persons, including a trustee, personal representative or other fiduciary, to receive the benefits specified hereunder in the event of the Participant’s death. No Beneficiary designation shall
become effective until it is filed with the Plan Committee. Any designation shall be revocable at any time through a written instrument filed by the Participant with the Plan Committee with or without the consent of the previous 

  

 2 

 
Beneficiary. If there is no Beneficiary designation in effect, then the person designated to receive the death benefit specified in Plan section 6.4 shall be
the Beneficiary. However, no designation of a Beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse shall be valid unless the spouse has consented to such designation in writing in accordance with procedures established by the Plan Committee or its
designee. If there is no such designation or if there is no surviving designated Beneficiary, then the Participant’s surviving spouse shall be the Beneficiary. If there is no surviving spouse to receive any benefits payable in accordance with
the preceding sentence, the duly appointed and currently acting personal representative of the Participant’s estate (which shall include either the Participant’s probate estate or living trust) shall be the Beneficiary. In any case where
there is no such personal representative of the Participant’s estate duly appointed and acting in that capacity within 90 days after the Participant’s death (or such extended period as the Plan Committee determines is reasonably necessary
to allow such personal representative to be appointed, but not to exceed 180 days after the Participant’s death), then Beneficiary shall mean the person or persons who can verify by affidavit or court order to the satisfaction of the Plan
Committee that they are legally entitled to receive the benefits specified hereunder. In the event any amount is payable under the Plan to a minor, payment shall not be made to the minor, but instead be paid: 
  

	 	(1)	To that person’s living parent(s) to act as custodian; 

  

	 	(2)	If that person’s parents are then divorced, and one parent is the sole custodial parent, to such custodial parent; or 

  

	 	(3)	If no parent of that person is then living, to a custodian selected by the Plan Committee to hold the funds for the minor under the Uniform Transfers or Gifts to Minors Act in
effect in the jurisdiction in which the minor resides. If no parent is living and the Plan Committee decides not to select another custodian to hold the funds for the minor, then payment shall be made to the duly appointed and currently acting
guardian of the estate for the minor or, if no guardian of the estate for the minor is duly appointed and currently acting within 60 days after the date the amount becomes payable, payment shall be deposited with the court having jurisdiction over
the estate of the minor. Any and all liability of the Company shall terminate upon payment by the Company of all benefits owed hereunder pursuant to any unrevoked Beneficiary designation or to the Participant’s estate if no such designation
exists. 

  

	(e)	“Board” means the Board of Directors of The First American Corporation. 

  

	(f)	“Bonuses” means such additional amounts of income or incentive pay as a Participating Company may determine to pay to an employee, as determined in the sole and
absolute discretion of such Participating Company. Income attributable to equity-based compensation will not be included in this definition. 

  

 3 

	(g)	“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: 

  

	 	(1)	The acquisition by any person, entity or “group” (as defined in section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) as
beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company. 

  

	 	(2)	A change in the composition of the Board occurring within a two-year period, as a result of which fewer than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors; or

  

	 	(3)	Any other event constituting a change in control required to be reported in response to item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred by reason of the acquisition of Company securities by the
Company, any entity controlled by the Company or any plan sponsored by the Company which is qualified under Code section 401(a) or by reason of the acquisition of Company securities (either directly or indirectly as a result of a merger,
consolidation or otherwise) or other corporate restructuring event of the Company in a transaction approved by the Incumbent Directors. 
  

	(h)	“Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 

  

	(i)	“Commissions” means a Participant’s remuneration earned from a Participating Company that is dependent on sales activity and is not related to Base Salary or
Bonuses. 

  

	(j)	“Company” means The First American Corporation and any successor corporation or corporations.

reflected at subsection (w). 

  

	(l)	“Deferral Account” means the bookkeeping account maintained by the Plan Committee for each Participant that is credited with amounts earned and vested on and after

	(jj)	“Qualified Divorce Order” means a divorce order that: 

  

	 	(1)	Creates or recognizes the existence of an alternate payee’s right to, or assigns to an alternate payee the right to, receive all or a portion of the benefits payable to a
Participant under this Plan; 

  

	 	(2)	Clearly specifies: 

  

	 	(A)	The name and the last known mailing address of the Participant and the name and mailing address of the alternate payee covered by the order; 

  

	 	(B)	The amount or percentage of the Participant’s benefits to be paid by this Plan to the alternate payee, or the manner in which such amount or percentage is to be determined;

  

	 	(C)	That the alternate payee will receive a lump sum distribution; and

	(kk)	 “Scheduled Withdrawal” means the amount of Compensation deferred by a Participant in a given Plan Year, and earnings and losses attributable
thereto, which 

  

 7 

	 	 
the Participant elected at the time that the corresponding deferral election was made to have distributed in-service at a Scheduled Withdrawal Date. A
Participant may not elect to receive a Scheduled Withdrawal equal to an amount other than the total amount of Compensation (and related earnings or losses) deferred during the Plan Year to which the Scheduled Withdrawal relates.

  

	(ll)	“Scheduled Withdrawal Date” means the distribution date elected by the Participant at the time that the corresponding Plan Year deferral election was made for a
Scheduled Withdrawal. A Participant’s Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to amounts of Compensation deferred in a given Plan Year cannot be paid until after the expiration of two Plan Years from the last day of the Plan Year for which the
corresponding deferrals of Compensation were made (e.g., 2012 for deferrals made in 2009). 

  

	(mm)	“Separation from Service” means the date on which a Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company (or any Affiliate) on account of the Participant’s
retirement, death, or other termination of employment. Whether or not a Participant has incurred a Separation from Service will be based on all surrounding relevant circumstances, including, but not limited to, the reasonable belief of both the
Participant and the Company (or Affiliate) that the Participant will perform no future services for the Company (or Affiliate) as an employee, as a contractor or in any other capacity. The Plan will treat an anticipated permanent reduction in the
level of bona fide services provided by the Participant to the Company or an Affiliate as a Separation from Service provided that it is reasonable for the Company or the Affiliate to anticipate that the Participant’s reduced level of bona fide
services will not exceed 49 percent of the average level of bona fide services provided by such Participant within the immediately preceding applicable 36 months within the meaning of Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii).

 For purposes of this defined term, no Separation from Service will be deemed to have occurred if the Participant
(1) transfers employment from the Company or an Affiliate to another member of the Company’s Code section 414 controlled group; or (2) experiences a Military Leave. For this purpose, controlled group membership will include the
Company and each Affiliate whether or not such Affiliate is also a Participating Company. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company are acquired by an unrelated third-party buyer, the Company and such buyer will have the discretionary authority consistent with the requirements of Treasury Regulations
section 1.409A-1(h)(4) to determine whether or not such asset transaction results in a Separation from Service for Participants from the Company. 
  

	(nn)	 “Specified Employee” means a Participant qualifying as a “key employee” for purposes of Code section 416 (determined without regard
to Code section 416(i)(5) 

  

 8 

	 	 
by satisfying any one of the following conditions at any time during the 12-month period ending on each December 31 (“Identification Date”):

  

	 	(1)	The Participant is among the top-paid 50 officers of the Company with annual compensation (within the meaning of Code section 415(c)(3)) in excess of $145,000 (subject to
cost-of-living adjustments); 

  

	 	(2)	The Participant is a five-percent owner; or 

  

	 	(3)	The Participant is a one-percent owner and has annual compensation in excess of $150,000. 

 If an individual is a key employee as of an Identification Date, including an individual who acknowledges his Specified Employee status to the Company
immediately prior to the date of his Separation from Service, the individual shall be treated as a Specified Employee for the 12-month period beginning on April 1 following the Identification Date. For the limited purpose of applying the
“one-percent” and “five-percent” ownership rules, ownership is determined with respect to the entity for which the Eligible Employee provides services. The Code’s controlled and affiliated service group rules do not apply
when determining a Participant’s ownership interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an individual shall not be treated as a Specified Employee unless any stock of the Company or any Affiliate is publicly traded on an established securities
market or otherwise. 
 For purposes of making its annual Specified Employee determination, the Company shall consider compensation treated as
recognizable pay under the so-called “Code section 415 general” definition of pay. 
 Notwithstanding the above, the Company
may (but is not required to) adopt an alternative method for identifying Specified Employees, provided such method satisfies the requirements set forth at Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(i)(5). 
  

	(oo)	“Subsequent Election Period” means any election period after the expiration of the Participant’s Initial Election Period. 

  

	(pp)	“Trust” means The First American Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan Trust. 

  

	(qq)	“Unforeseeable Financial Emergency” means an unanticipated emergency that is caused by an event beyond the control of the Participant that would result in severe
financial hardship to the Participant, which the Participant cannot satisfy through insurance reimbursements, the liquidation of other assets (but only if such liquidation would not itself cause a hardship) or by stopping deferrals under this Plan,
and resulting from: 

  

 9 

	 	(1)	A sudden and unexpected illness or accident of the Participant or a dependent of the Participant (as defined in Code section 152(a)); 

  

	 	(2)	A casualty loss involving the Participant’s property; or 

  

	 	(3)	Such other extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of the Participant, all as determined in the sole discretion of the Plan
Committee. 

 1.3 Gender and Number 
 Any
masculine or feminine terminology shall also include the opposite gender, and the definition of any term in the singular or plural shall also include the opposite number. 
 1.4 Headings 
 The headings of this Plan are inserted for convenience or reference only, and they are not to be used
in the construction of the Plan. 
 1.5 Requirement to Be in “Written Form” 
 Various notices provided by the Company, the Plan Committee, or any duly authorized agent of either of them and various elections made by Participants, Beneficiaries or other payees are required to be in written form.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, any notices and elections related to, or that may constitute part of, the Plan may be conveyed through an electronic system or any other system approved by the Plan Committee unless otherwise
provided under applicable law or regulatory guidance. 
  

 10 

 Article 2. Participation 
 2.1 Participation 
 An Eligible Employee shall become a Participant in the Plan by electing to defer a portion of his Compensation in
accordance with Plan section 3.1. If a Participant has a Separation from Service and is subsequently reemployed, the Participant may not reenter the Plan until the Plan Year that follows a period of twenty-four (24) months from the
Participant’s date of reemployment. If a Participant transfers to an entity that is not an Affiliate, such Participant’s participation in this Plan shall cease upon such transfer. If the Participant transfers to an Affiliate, whether or
not such Affiliate is also a Participating Company, the deferral election made by a Participant for the Plan Year which includes the date of transfer shall remain in effect for the remainder of such Plan Year. Participants who transfer to an
Affiliate which is not a Participating Company shall not be eligible to make a deferral election with respect to any Plan Year following the Plan Year in which their transfer to such Affiliate was first effective until such time (if ever) that such
Participant’s employment is transferred back to the Company or a Participating Company or until such time (if ever) that such nonparticipating Affiliate becomes a Participating Company. 
  

 11 

 Article 3. Deferral Elections 
 3.1 Elections to Defer Compensation 
 Each Eligible Employee may elect to defer Compensation in accordance with this Plan section 3.1.

  

	(a)	Initial Election Period. Subject to the provisions of Article 2 of the Plan, each Eligible Employee may elect to defer Compensation not yet earned by filing with the Plan
Committee an election that conforms to the requirements of this Plan section 3.1, in a manner provided by the Plan Committee, no later than the last day of his Initial Election Period. Each Participant’s election made during his Initial
Election Period (if any) will remain in effect from Plan Year to Plan Year until the Participant changes such election pursuant to subsection (d). 

  

	(b)	Subsequent Election Periods. Any Eligible Employee who fails to elect to defer Compensation during his Initial Election Period may subsequently become a Participant by filing
an election, in a manner provided by the Plan Committee, to defer Compensation as described in subsection (a), above, on or before December 31 of a Plan Year with respect to Compensation to be earned in the next following Plan Year. Each
Participant’s election during any Subsequent Election Period (if any) will remain in effect from Plan Year to Plan Year until the Participant changes such election pursuant to subsection (d). 

  

	(c)	Required Deferral Amount. The amount of Compensation which an Eligible Employee may elect to defer shall be a whole percentage or a specified dollar amount which shall not
exceed 100% of the Eligible Employee’s Compensation or applicable component of Compensation, and provided that the total amount deferred by a Participant shall be limited in any calendar year, if necessary, to satisfy Social Security tax and
Medicare, income tax, employee benefit plan and other withholding requirements as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Plan Committee. If a Participant elects to defer a specified dollar amount from one or more eligible sources of
Compensation (Base Salary, Bonuses, Commissions) and the specified dollar amount exceeds the amount of Compensation in one or more of the eligible sources of Compensation as previously elected by the Participant, a deferral of up to 100% of the
Eligible Employee’s Compensation or applicable component of Compensation, consistent with the tax, withholding and benefit plan requirements set forth in the preceding sentence, shall be deemed to satisfy such previously elected specified
dollar deferral. 

  

	(d)	 Modification of Deferral Election Generally. A Participant may increase, decrease or terminate a deferral election with respect to Compensation for any
subsequent Plan Year by filing a new election on or before December 31, which election shall be effective on the first day of the next following Plan Year. If no such modification of 

  

 12 

	 	 
a prior deferral election is made on or before each successive December 31, then the standing deferral election, as described in subsections
(a) and (b) above shall continue in effect until it is modified under this subsection. 

  

	(e)	Modification of Deferral Election Upon Unforeseeable Financial Emergency. A Participant may request to suspend their deferral election due to an Unforeseeable Financial
Emergency. The Plan Committee will make a determination of whether or not to grant such Participant’s request. If the Plan Committee determines a Participant experienced an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency, the Participant’s standing
election covering the Initial Election Period or Subsequent Election Period, as applicable, will be suspended for the remainder of the period covered by such Initial Election Period or Subsequent Election Period. 

  

	(f)	Transfers. A Participant who transfers from the Company or a Participating Company to a non-participating Affiliate shall have his deferral election remain in place for the
remainder of the Plan Year in which such transfer was first effective. 

 3.2 Distribution Elections 
  

	(a)	Form of Distribution. Concurrently with the filing of a Participant’s Plan Year election to defer, a Participant shall elect the form of distribution from among the
following options in a manner provided by the Plan Committee: 

  

	 	(1)	A lump sum distribution beginning on the Participant’s Payment Date; or 

  

	 	(2)	Substantially equal quarterly installments over five (5), ten (10), or fifteen (15) years beginning on the Participant’s Payment Date. 

 A distribution election made with respect to a Deferral Amount will not remain in effect beyond the Plan Year for which the distribution election was
originally made. If a Participant fails to elect an optional form of benefit as provided above by the due date determined for making such election, the Participant’s Distributable Amount will be distributed in a lump sum beginning on the
Participant’s Payment Date. If a Participant makes an election to receive installments with respect to deferrals that apply to one or more Plan Years and later experiences a Separation from Service, and begins to receive such installment
payments and is then later rehired, such installment payments related to the Participant’s prior period of service must continue to be paid as if the Participant was never rehired. 
  

	(b)	 Post-2004 Plan Year Deferrals. For the deferrals that relate to each successive Plan Year after 2004, a Participant may make a one-time election to change
the time or form (or time and form) of distribution of the Participant’s corresponding Plan Year balance so long as such election is not effective for twelve months, does not accelerate the time in which the distribution is to be received, is
made not less than twelve (12) months prior to the Scheduled Withdrawal Date for a Scheduled 

  

 13 

	 	 
Withdrawal), and results in a delay in the Scheduled Withdrawal Date of not less than five (5) years. Any such one-time election change made with
respect to deferrals relating to a specific Plan Year after 2004 will not change the original election made with respect to the deferrals for any other specific Plan Year after 2004. 

  

	(c)	$25,000 Lump Sum. In the case of a Participant with an Account balance of less than $25,000 at his Separation from Service, the Distributable Amount shall be paid to the
Participant by the Payment Date (and after his death to his Beneficiary) in a lump sum, regardless of the election made by the Participant, provided further that such accelerated lump sum payout will only apply if such payout results in the
termination of the Participant’s entire interest in this Plan and all other account-based elective deferral plans aggregated with this Plan under Code section 409A. 

  

	(d)	Earnings. The Participant’s Account shall continue to be credited with earnings pursuant to Plan section 4.1 until all amounts credited to the Participant’s Account
under the Plan have been distributed. For lump sum distributions, a Participant’s Account will be credited with earnings through the last day of the calendar quarter in which the Participant has a Separation from Service. Lump sum distributions
that are payable to a Specified Employee, as defined in Plan section 1.2(nn), and, therefore, subject to a six-month delay shall be credited with earnings through the last day of the calendar month coincident with or immediately following the
expiration of such six-month period. For installment payments, a Participant’s Account will be credited with earnings through the last day of the calendar quarter which includes the last remaining installment payment, For Scheduled Withdrawals,
a Participant’s Account will be credited with earnings through the applicable December 31 immediately preceding the Scheduled Withdrawal Date. 

 3.3 Investment Elections 
  

	(a)	At the time of making the deferral elections described in Plan section 3.1, the Participant shall designate, in a manner provided by the Plan Committee, the types of investment
funds in which the Participant’s Account will be deemed to be invested for purposes of determining the amount of earnings to be credited to his Account. In making the designation pursuant to this Plan section 3.3, the Participant may
specify that all or any percentage of his Account (in whole percentage increments) be deemed to be invested in one or more of the types of investment funds provided under the Plan as communicated from time to time by the Plan Committee. A
Participant may change the designation made under this Plan section 3.3, any day by filing an election, in a manner provided by the Plan Committee. If a Participant fails to elect a type of fund under this Plan section 3.3, the Participant shall be
deemed to have elected the Money Market type of investment fund. 

  

	(b)	 Although the Participant may designate the type of investments, the Plan Committee shall not be bound by such designation. The Plan Committee shall select from time

  

 14 

	 	 
to time, in its sole discretion, certain investment crediting options, all of which are communicated by the Plan Committee to the Participant pursuant to
subsection (a), above, and such designated investments shall constitute the Funds. The Investment Return of each such commercially available investment fund shall be used to determine the amount of earnings or losses to be credited to
Participant’s Account under Article 4 of the Plan. 

  

 15 

 Article 4. Participant Accounts and Trust Funding 
 4.1 Participant Accounts 
 The Plan Committee shall establish and maintain a Deferral Account for each Participant
under the Plan. Each Participant’s Deferral Account and Company Contribution Account shall be further divided into separate subaccounts (“investment fund subaccounts”), each of which corresponds to an investment fund elected by the
Participant pursuant to Plan section 3.3(a). A Participant’s Deferral Account shall be credited as follows: 
  

	(a)	Within five business days of Compensation being withheld, the Plan Committee shall credit the investment fund subaccounts of the Participant’s Deferral Account with an amount
equal to the Compensation deferred by the Participant during each pay period in accordance with the Participant’s election under Plan section 3.3(a); that is, the portion of the Participant’s deferred Compensation that the Participant
has elected to be deemed to be invested in a certain type of investment fund shall be credited to the investment fund subaccount corresponding to that investment fund. Deferrals of Base Salary will be deducted from each applicable paycheck.
Deferrals of Commissions and Bonuses will be deducted when paid. 

  

	(b)	At the end of every business day, each investment fund subaccount of a Participant’s Deferral Account shall be credited with earnings or losses in an amount equal to that
determined by multiplying the balance credited to such investment fund subaccount as of each preceding business day by the Investment Return for the corresponding fund selected by the Company pursuant to Plan section 3.3(b).

  

	(c)	In the event that a Participant elects to defer Compensation for a given Plan Year, all amounts attributed to the deferral of Compensation for such Plan Year shall be accounted for
in a manner which allows separate accounting for the deferral of such Compensation and investment gains and losses associated with such Plan Year’s deferral of Compensation. 

 4.2 Funding of Trust 
  

	(a)	The Company has created a Trust with First American Trust, FSB serving as the initial trustee. The Company shall cause the Trust to be funded each year. Each Participating Company
shall contribute to the Trust an amount equal to the amount deferred by each Participant for the Plan Year. Each Participating Company may also contribute such additional amounts as it shall deem necessary or appropriate. 

 

	(b)	 Although the principal of the Trust and any earnings thereon shall be held separate and apart from other funds of a Participating Company and shall be used
exclusively for the uses and purposes of Plan Participants and Beneficiaries as set forth therein, neither the Participants nor their Beneficiaries shall have any preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership in, any assets of the Trust prior to
the time such assets are 

  

 16 

	 	 
paid to the Participants or Beneficiaries as benefits and all rights created under this Plan shall be unsecured contractual rights of Plan Participants and
Beneficiaries against the Participating Company. 

  

	(c)	Prior to an event of insolvency, as defined in the Trust, the assets of the Plan and Trust shall never inure to the benefit of the Participating Company and the same shall be held
for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to Participants and their beneficiaries, including the payment of reasonable expenses of administering the Plan and Trust. Upon an event of insolvency, as defined in the Trust, assets held in the Trust
will be subject to the claims of a Participating Company’s general creditors under federal and state law as further specified in the Trust. 

  

 17 

 Article 5. Vesting 
 A
Participant’s Deferral Account shall be 100% vested at all times. 
  

 18 

 Article 6. Distributions 
 6.1 Scheduled Distributions 
 In the case of a Participant who has elected a Scheduled Withdrawal while still in the employ of a
Participating Company, such Participant shall receive his Scheduled Withdrawal amount in a lump sum on the Payment Date following the Scheduled Withdrawal Date specified in his deferral election. If a Participant elects to modify a previously
elected Scheduled Withdrawal Date with respect to post-2004 deferrals, the modification of the Participant’s Scheduled Withdrawal Date will not take effect for 12 months after the date the Participant modified his Scheduled Withdrawal Date
and no payment will be made pursuant to the revised Scheduled Withdrawal Date prior to the expiration of a period equal to five years from the date the payment or payments would have commenced under the Scheduled Withdrawal Date originally
elected by the Participant as required by the subsequent deferral election rules under Code section 409A. If a Participant has a Separation from Service prior to a Scheduled Withdrawal Date, other than by reason of death, the portion of the
Participant’s Account associated with the Participant’s selected Scheduled Withdrawal Dates which have not occurred prior to such Separation from Service shall be distributed in a lump sum, provided, however, such lump sum will be delayed
for six (6) months following the Participant’s Separation from Service consistent with Plan sections 1.2(cc) and 1.2(nn). 
 6.2 Post-2004
Early Distributions of Pre-2005 Plan Year Balances 
 Except as specified below, the Participant’s right to elect an Early Distribution from the
portion of his Deferral Account that represents pre-2005 Plan Year balances is not amended and the Plan terms governing such Early Distribution, including the ten percent payment forfeiture provision, are reflected in Appendix A of this Plan. On or
after the Effective Date, a Participant making an election to take an Early Distribution will result in the Participant being suspended from making a Deferral Amount for two Plan Years commencing with the January 1 next following the date on
which the Participant makes such Early Distribution election. Deferrals (and investment earnings on such deferrals) made to this Plan after 2004 are not eligible for an Early Distribution. 
 6.3 Distribution Upon Separation from Service 
 Upon the
Participant’s Separation from Service, whether by reason of retirement or for any reason other than death, a Participant shall receive his Distributable Amount (or in the case of a Participant who has elected to receive his Distributable Amount
in installments, begin to receive such installments) in the form elected by the Participant pursuant to Plan section 3.2 on the Payment Date following such Separation from Service. 
 6.4 Death Benefit 
  

	(a)	Death Benefit While Still Employed. In the case of a Participant who dies while employed by a Participating Company, the following benefits shall be provided:

  

 19 

	 	(1)	The Account Balance in a lump sum or installments as previously elected by the Participant and, subject to the provisions of this Article 6 of the Plan but without regard to the
six-month payment delay for Specified Employees; 

  

	 	(2)	In the case of an employee who became a Participant prior to January 1, 2002, that portion of the death benefit of any life insurance policy purchased by the Trust to insure
the life of the Participant and which is subject to a “Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreement” (as described therein) equal to the amounts described in subsections (a)(2)(A) through (D) and not to exceed $2 million. Furthermore,
if the Participant dies while in service on or after attainment of age 61, the benefit under this Plan section, after application of the $2 million limit described above, shall be reduced by 20% for each full year after the Participant’s
attainment of age 60. Provided, however, that if the Participant is over age 61 as of February 1, 2003, the benefit will be reduced by 20% for each full year after February 1, 2002 and not as described in the preceding sentence.

  

	 	(A)	If a Participant elects during his first twelve months of Plan participation (whether or not such election occurs during more than one Plan Year) to defer Base Salary only, such
Participant’s death benefit shall equal his Base Salary deferrals annualized over the first twelve months of Plan participation multiplied by fifteen. This amount shall constitute the Participant’s death benefit for the remainder of his
participation in the Plan. 

  

	 	(B)	If a Participant elects during his first twelve months of Plan participation (whether or not such election occurs during more than one Plan Year) to defer Bonuses and/or Commissions
only, such Participant’s death benefit during the first twelve months of Plan participation shall be $0. At the end of the initial twelve-month period (which may or may not span more than one Plan Year) the amount of the Participant’s
deferral of Bonuses and/or Commissions shall be aggregated and multiplied by fifteen, which amount shall constitute the Participant’s death benefit for the remainder of his participation in this Plan. 

  

	 	(C)	 If a Participant elects during his first twelve months of Plan participation (whether or not such election occurs during more than one Plan Year) to defer Base
Salary and Bonuses and/or Commissions, then the Participant’s death benefit during his first twelve months of Plan participation shall equal his Base Salary deferrals annualized over twelve months multiplied by fifteen. At the end of the
initial twelve-month period (which may or may not span more than one Plan Year) the Participant’s death benefit shall equal the amount of Base Salary deferrals annualized during the first twelve months multiplied by fifteen 

  

 20 

	 	 
plus the aggregate amount of all deferrals of Bonuses and/or Commissions which occurred during the first twelve months multiplied by fifteen. This amount
shall constitute the Participant’s death benefit for the remainder of his participation in the Plan. 

  

	 	(D)	If a Participant suspends contributions of Base Salary during the first twelve (12) months of Plan participation, then the Participant’s death benefit calculated in
accordance with subsections (a)(2)(A) and (C) shall be determined by multiplying the actual amount of Base Salary deferred during the initial twelve-month period multiplied by fifteen. 

  

	 	(3)	Any such Policy shall be subject to certain conditions as set forth in a “split-dollar life insurance agreement” between the Participant, Trustee and the Participating
Company, pursuant to which the Participant may designate a beneficiary with respect to the portion of the Policy proceeds described in this Plan section 6.4 in the event the Participant dies prior to otherwise incurring a Separation from
Service. The Participant may designate and change such beneficiary (which need not be his Beneficiary) at any time on a form provided by and filed with the insurance company. If no such form is on file with the insurance company, the insurance
proceeds designated in this paragraph shall be paid to the Beneficiary. The benefit payable pursuant to this paragraph shall only be paid if the insurance company agrees that the Participant is insurable and shall be subject to all conditions and
exceptions set forth in the applicable insurance policy. 

  

	 	(4)	Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan or any other document to the contrary, the Participating Company shall not have any obligation to pay the Participant or his beneficiary
any amounts described in subsection (a)(2); all such amounts due pursuant to subsection (a)(2) shall be payable solely from the proceeds of the Policy, if any. Furthermore, the Participating Company is not obligated to maintain the Policy; no
death benefit shall be payable hereunder if the Company has discontinued the Policy for the Participant. In addition, no Policy shall be allocated to any Participant Account. 

  

	 	(5)	So long as the Participating Company Trust maintains a Policy for a Participant, the Company shall pay to the Trustee amounts necessary to pay premiums on the Policy insuring the
Participant’s life as soon as practicable after the end of each Plan Year, or such earlier time as the Company shall determine (but no later than the tax return due date for the Company for such year), in amounts equal to the amount deferred by
the Participant for the Plan Year. The Company may allocate such premium expenses amongst Participating Companies. 

  

 21 

	 	(6)	Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, and effective January 1, 2002, no death benefit will be payable to any Eligible Employee who became a Participant
after December 31, 2001. 

  

	(b)	Death After Benefit Commencement. In the event a Participant dies after he has had a Separation from Service and begins to receive installment payments pursuant to Plan
section 3.2 but while he still has a balance in his Account, the balance shall continue to be paid in installments to the Beneficiary for the remainder of the period as elected by the Participant. 

  

	(c)	Death Benefit Reduction. In the event a Participant elects an Early Distribution from his Deferral Account for a percentage of his Account representing his pre-2005 Plan Year
balances, the Participant’s death benefit as computed in accordance with this Plan section 6.4 shall be reduced by multiplying said death benefit by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the sum of the Participant’s Early
Distributions and the denominator of which shall be the Participant’s Deferral Account representing his pre-2005 Plan Year balances without reduction for any Early Distributions taken. For purposes of calculating the denominator of the fraction
set forth above, a Participant’s Early Distributions shall be credited with earnings and losses in accordance with Plan section 4.1. 

 6.5 Inability to Locate Participant 
 If the Plan Committee is unable to locate a Participant or Beneficiary within three years following the
required Payment Date, the amount allocated to the Participant’s Deferral Account shall be forfeited. If, after such forfeiture, the Participant or Beneficiary later claims, within three years of the forfeiture, such benefit, such benefit shall
be reinstated but without interest or earnings from the date of forfeiture forward. 
 6.6 No Acceleration of Payments 
 The Plan Committee shall not permit the acceleration of the time or schedule of payments except as provided in this Plan section. 
 As of January 1, 2009, acceleration of the time or schedule of payments shall be permitted only in the following instances: 
  

	(a)	A payment to an alternate payee to the extent necessary to fulfill a Qualified Divorce Order; 

  

	(b)	A payment that is necessary to comply with a certificate of divestiture as defined in Code section 1043(b)(2); 

  

	(c)	 A payment to pay the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax imposed under Code sections 3101 and 3121(v)(2) on amounts held by the Plan as well as a
payment to pay any income tax at source on wages imposed under Code section 3401 

  

 22 

	 	 
(i.e., wage withholding) on the FICA tax amount and any income tax at source attributable to the pyramiding of wages and taxes. The total payment
under this subsection may not exceed the aggregate FICA tax amount and the income tax withholding related to such FICA tax amount; or 

  

	(d)	A small amount cashout pursuant to Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(v). 

 6.7 Tax Withholding 
 Any federal, state or local taxes, including FICA tax amounts, required by law to be withheld
with respect to benefits earned and vested under this Plan or any other compensation arrangement may be withheld from the Participant’s benefit, salary, wages or other amounts paid by the Company or any employer and reasonably available for
withholding. Prior to making or authorizing any benefit payment under this Plan, the Company may require such documents from any taxing authority, or may require such indemnities or a surety bond from any Participant or Beneficiary, as the Company
shall reasonably consider necessary for its protection. 
 6.8 Six-Month Delay for Specified Employee 
 If the Company determines that a Participant is a Specified Employee, payment of the Participant’s Account will not commence prior to the first day of the month
following the six-month anniversary of the Participant’s Separation from Service. Additionally, a Participant must notify the Company to affirm whether or not he is a Specified Employee by virtue of the one-percent and five-percent ownership
thresholds set forth at Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-1(i) and the Company will not be responsible for any consequences to the Participant as a result of a Participant’s failure to so notify the Company. The above six-month payment
delay will not apply to a Participant who is a Specified Employee if the Participant’s Separation from Service is on account of his death. The above six-month payment delay will also not apply to a Participant who incurs and receives a payment
pursuant to a qualifying Disability. If a Participant’s benefits under this Plan are subject to such six-month payment delay, the Participant will be entitled to receive a one-time lump sum payment equal to the payments which were delayed by
the above six-month delay. 
 6.9 Distributions Upon Unforeseeable Financial Emergency 
 A Participant may request an accelerated distribution from his Deferral Account that does not exceed an amount necessary to satisfy an Unforeseeable Financial Emergency experienced by the Participant. The Plan
Committee will make a determination of whether or not to grant such Participant’s request. In making this determination, the Plan Committee is not required to consider payments that may be available to the Participant due to the Unforeseeable
Financial Emergency under any other qualified or nonqualified retirement plans maintained by the Company. 
  

 23

interests. 

  

 27 

	 	(3)	No Indemnified Person, including an Indemnified Person who is a former Employee, shall be indemnified under this Plan section 7.7 unless he makes himself reasonably available

	 	(5)	Payments of any indemnity under this Plan section 7.7 shall only be made from assets of the Company. The provisions of this Plan section 7.7 shall not preclude or limit
such further indemnities or reimbursement under this Plan as allowable under applicable law, as may be available under insurance purchased by the Company, or as may be provided by the Company under any by-law, agreement or otherwise, provided that
no expense shall be indemnified under this Plan section 7.7 that is otherwise indemnified by the Company, by an insurance contract purchased by the Company, or by this Plan. 

 7.8 Insurance 
 The Plan Committee may authorize the purchase of
insurance to cover any liabilities or losses occurring by reason of the act or omission of any Plan Committee member or its designee. To the extent permitted by law, the Plan Committee may purchase insurance covering any member (or its designee) for
any personal liability of such Plan Committee member (or its designee) with respect to any administrative responsibilities under this Plan. Any Plan Committee member (or its designee) may also purchase insurance for his own account covering any
personal liability under this Plan.

September 30 and December 31. 
 Each Participant shall be responsible for furnishing to the Company his current address. The Participant shall
also be responsible for notifying the Company of any change in the above information. If a Participant does not provide the above information to the Company, the Plan Committee may rely on the address of record of the Participant on file with the
Company’s personnel office. 
 All notices or other communications from the Plan Committee to a Participant (who is a current Eligible Employee) shall
be deemed given and binding upon that person for all purposes of the Plan when delivered by e-mail to the Participant’s individually designated 

  

 28

Committee, and the Company shall not be obliged to search for or ascertain his whereabouts. 
 All notices or other communications from the Participant
required or permitted under this Plan shall be provided to the person specified by the Plan Committee, using such procedures as are prescribed by the Plan Committee. The Plan Committee may require that the oral notice or communication be provided by
telephoning a specific telephone number and, after calling that telephone number, by following a specified procedure. Any oral notice or oral communication from a Participant that is made in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Plan
Committee shall be deemed to have been duly given when all information requested by the person specified by the Plan Committee is provided to such person, in accordance with the specified procedures. 
 7.10 Data 
 All persons entitled to benefits from the Plan must
furnish to the Plan Committee such documents, evidence, or information, as the Plan Committee considers necessary or desirable for the purpose of administering the Plan, and it shall be a condition of the Plan that each such person must furnish such
information and sign such documents as the Plan Committee may require before any benefits become payable from the Plan.

	 	(1)	The Claimant (or an authorized representative of a Claimant) may file a claim for benefits by written notice to the Plan Committee. The Plan Committee shall establish procedures for
determining whether a person is authorized to represent a Claimant.

	 	(D)	An application or request for benefits under the Plan. 

  

	(b)	If a claim for benefits is wholly or partially denied, the Plan Committee shall, within a reasonable period of time, but no later than 90 days after receipt of the claim, notify the
Claimant of the denial of benefits. If special circumstances justify extending the period up to an additional 90 days, the Claimant shall be given written notice of this extension within the initial 90-day period, and such notice shall set
forth the special circumstances and the date a decision is expected. A notice of denial 

  

	 	(1)	Shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant; and

than the 90 or 180 days described in subsection (b) above), the Claimant (or an authorized representative of a Claimant) may file a written request with the Plan Committee that it conduct a full review of the denial of the claim. In connection
with the Claimant’s appeal, upon request, the Claimant may review and obtain copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to the Claimant’s claim for benefits (but not including any document, record or information that
is subject to any attorney–client or work–product privilege) and may submit issues and comments in writing. The Claimant may submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim for benefits. All
comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the Claimant shall be taken into account in the appeal without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

  

	(d)	The Plan Committee shall deliver to the Claimant a written decision on the claim promptly, but no later than 60 days after the receipt of the Claimant’s request for such
review, unless special circumstances exist that justify extending this period up to an additional 60 days. If the period is extended, the Claimant shall be given written notice of this extension during the initial 60-day period and such notice
shall set forth the special circumstances and the date a decision is expected. The decision on review of the denial of the claim

 34 

 Article 10. Miscellaneous 
 10.1 No Enlargement of Employee Rights 
 This Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Company and shall not be deemed to
constitute a contract between the Company and any Eligible Employee or to be consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of, the employment of any Eligible Employee. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to give any Eligible
Employee the right to be retained in the service of the Company or any Participating Company or to interfere with the right of any of them to discharge or retire any person at any time. No one shall have any right to benefits, except to the extent
provided in this Plan. 
 10.2 Leave of Absence 
 A
Participant who is on an approved leave of absence with salary, or on an approved leave of absence without salary for a period of not more than six months, shall be deemed to be a Participant during such leave of absence. A Participant who is on an
approved leave of absence without salary for a period in excess of six months shall be deemed to have voluntarily incurred a Separation from Service as of the end of such six-month period, provided that, based on all relevant facts and
circumstances, neither the Participant nor the Company has a reasonable expectation that the Participant will provide future services to the Company or a Participating Company. 
 10.3 Withholding 
 Benefit payments hereunder shall be subject to applicable federal, state or local withholding for
taxes. 
 10.4 No Examination or Accounting 
 Neither this
Plan nor any action taken thereunder shall be construed as giving any person the right to an accounting or to examine the books or affairs of the Company, or any Participating Company. 
 10.5 Records Conclusive 
 The records of the Company shall be conclusive in respect to all matters involved in the
administration of the Plan. 
 10.6 Service of Legal Process 
 The members of the Plan Committee (or if there is no such Plan Committee then the Company) are hereby designated as agent(s) of the Plan for the purpose of receiving legal process. 
 10.7 Governing Law 
 The Plan shall be construed, administered, and
governed in all respects under the applicable laws of the State of California, except to the extent pre-empted by federal law. Upon any change in the law or other determination that any term, condition or other provision of the 

  

 35 

 
Plan has been altered in any way, the Plan Committee shall administer this Plan in accordance with such change notwithstanding the terms of the Plan pending
an amendment to this Plan. 
 10.8 Severability 
 If any
provision of this Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, such illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining provisions; instead, each provision is fully severable and the Plan will be construed and enforced as if any illegal or
invalid provision had never been included. 
 10.9 Facility of Payment 
 Every person receiving or claiming benefits under this Plan is presumed to be mentally competent and of age until the date on which the Plan Committee receives a written notice, in a form and manner acceptable to it,
that such person is mentally incompetent or a minor, and that a guardian or other person legally vested with the care of such person or his estate has been appointed. 
 However, if the Plan Committee should find that any person to whom a benefit is payable under this Plan is unable to care for his affairs because of any incompetency or is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior
claim shall have been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may be paid to the spouse, a child, a parent, or a brother or sister, or to any other person or institution that the Plan Committee determines to have incurred expense for such
person otherwise entitled to payment. To the extent permitted by law, any such payment so made shall be a complete discharge of any liability therefor under the Plan. 
 If a guardian of the estate or other person legally vested with the care of the estate of any person receiving or claiming benefits under the Plan is appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction, payments shall be
made to such guardian or other person provided that proper proof of appointment and continuing qualification is furnished in a form and manner suitable to the Plan Committee. To the extent permitted by law, such guardian or other person may act for
the Participant and make any election required of or permitted by the Participant under this Plan, and such action or election shall be deemed to have been done by the Participant, and benefit payments may be made to such guardian or other person
and any such payment shall be a complete discharge of any such liability under the Plan. 
 10.10 General Restrictions Against Alienation 

The interest of any Participant under this Plan shall not in any event be subject to sale, assignment, or transfer, and each Participant is hereby prohibited from
anticipating, encumbering, assigning, or in any manner alienating his interest hereunder and is without power to do so; provided, however, that this provision shall not restrict the power or authority of the Plan Committee, in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Plan, to disburse funds to the legally appointed guardian, executor, administrator, or personal representative of any Participant or pursuant to a valid Qualified Divorce Order. 
  

 36 

 If any person attempts to take any action contrary to this Plan section 10.10, such action shall be void and the
Company may disregard such action and is not in any manner bound thereby, and they shall suffer no liability for any such disregard thereof. If the Plan Committee is notified that any Participant has been adjudicated bankrupt or has purported to
anticipate, sell, transfer, assign, or encumber any Plan distribution or payment, voluntarily or involuntarily, the Plan Committee shall hold or apply such distribution or payment or any part thereof to, or for the benefit of, such Participant in
such manner as the Plan Committee finds appropriate. 
 10.11 Excise Tax for Code Section 409A Violations 
 While the Company intends that the Plan meet the requirements of Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations, the Participant shall be liable for any excise
tax (including interest and penalties thereon) which results from a violation of the requirements of Code section 409A and related Treasury Regulations. 
 10.12 Counterparts 
 This Plan may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original. All the
counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument and may be sufficiently evidenced by any one counterpart. 
 10.13 Assignment

 The Company shall have the right to assign its obligations under the Plan, either in whole or in part, to any Participating Company of the Company.

 In Witness Whereof, the authorized officers of the Company have signed this document and have affixed the corporate seal on December 29, 2008, but
generally effective as of January 1, 2009.

 THE FIRST AMERICAN FINANCIAL CORPORATION 
 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN 
 WHEREAS, The First American Financial Corporation (the
“Company”) has previously desires to established The First American Financial Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) to provide supplemental retirement income benefits for a select group of management and or highly
compensated employees through deferrals of salary, commissions and bonuses effective as of January 1, 1998; and 
 WHEREAS, Company desires to amend and
restate in its entirety the Plan to provide for the participation of a select group of management and highly compensated employees of entities of which Company has a greater than fifty percent (50%) but less than eighty percent
(80%) ownership interest. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, effective as of January 1, 2000, the Plan is hereby amended adopted to read as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 
 TITLE AND DEFINITIONS

 1.1 Title. 
 This Plan shall be known as The First
American Financial Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan. 
 1.2 Definitions. 
 Whenever the following words and phrases are used in this Plan, with the first letter capitalized, they shall have the meanings specified below. 
 (a) “Account” or “Accounts” shall mean a Participant’s Deferral Ac count. 
 (b) “Base
Salary” shall mean a Participant’s annual base salary, excluding bonus, incentive and all other remuneration for services rendered to Participating Company and prior to reduction for any salary contributions to a plan established pursuant
to Section 125 of the Code or qualified pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Code. 
 (c) “Beneficiary” or “Beneficiaries” shall
mean the person or persons, including a trustee, personal representative or other fiduciary, last designated in writing by a Participant in accordance with procedures established by the Committee to receive the benefits specified hereunder in the
event of the Participant’s death (other than the death benefits described in Section 6.1(b)(1) unless such person is designated as a beneficiary under the Policy described therein). No beneficiary designation shall become effective until
it is filed with the Committee. Any designation shall be revocable at any time through a written instrument filed by the Participant with the Committee with or without the consent of the previous Beneficiary. If there is no Beneficiary designation
in effect, then the person designated to receive the death benefit 

 
specified in Section 6.1(c)(1) shall be the Beneficiary. However, no designation of a Beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse shall be
valid unless consented to in writing by such spouse. If there is no such designation or if there is no surviving designated Beneficiary, then the Participant’s surviving spouse shall be the Beneficiary. If there is no surviving spouse to
receive any benefits payable in accordance with the preceding sentence, the duly appointed and currently acting personal representative of the Participant’s estate (which shall include either the Participant’s probate estate or living
trust) shall be the Beneficiary. In any case where there is no such personal representative of the Participant’s estate duly appointed and acting in that capacity within 90 days after the Participant’s death (or such extended period as the
Committee determines is reasonably necessary to allow such personal representative to be appointed, but not to exceed 180 days after the Participant’s death), then Beneficiary shall mean the person or persons who can verify by affidavit or
court order to the satisfaction of the Committee that they are legally entitled to receive the benefits specified hereunder. In the event any amount is payable under the Plan to a minor, payment shall not be made to the minor, but instead be paid
(a) to that person’s living parent(s) to act as custodian, (b) if that person’s parents are then divorced, and one parent is the sole custodial parent, to such custodial parent, or (c) if no parent of that person is then
living, to a custodian selected by the Committee to hold the funds for the minor under the Uniform Transfers or Gifts to Minors Act in effect in the jurisdiction in which the minor resides. If no parent is living and the Committee decides not to
select another custodian to hold the funds for the minor, then payment shall be made to the duly appointed and currently acting guardian of the estate for the minor or, if no guardian of the estate for the minor is duly appointed and currently
acting within 60 days after the date the amount becomes payable, payment shall be deposited with the court having jurisdiction over the estate of the minor. Payment by Company pursuant to any unrevoked Beneficiary designation, or to the
Participant’s estate if no such designation exists, of all benefits owed hereunder shall terminate any and all liability of Company. 
 (d) “Board
of Directors” or “Board” shall mean the Board of Directors of The First American Financial Corporation. 
 (e) “Bonuses” shall mean
such additional amounts of income as Participating Company may determine to pay to an employee, as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of Participating Company.

remuneration earned from Participating Company which is dependent on sales activity and is not related to Base Salary or Bonuses. 
 (i) “Company”
shall mean The First American Financial Corporation and any successor corporations.

 (l) “Distributable Amount” shall mean the balance in the Participant’s Deferral Account. 
 (m) “Early Distribution” shall mean an election by a Participant in accordance with Section 6.2 to receive a withdrawal of amounts from his or her Deferral Account prior to the time in which such
Participant would otherwise be entitled to such amounts. 
 (n) “Effective Date” and “Amended Effective Date” shall mean January 1,
1998 and January 1, 1999. 
 (o) “Eligible Employee” shall mean such management and highly compensated employees as are designated by the
Participating Company for participation in this Plan. 
 (p) “Fund” or “Funds” shall mean one or more of the investment funds selected by
the Committee pursuant to Section 3.2(b). 
 (q) “Initial Election Period” for an Eligible Employee shall mean the 30-day period immediately
prior to November 14, 1997 or the 30-day period following the time an employee shall be designated by the Company as an Eligible Employee. 
 (r)
“Interest Rate” shall mean, for each Fund, an amount equal to the net rate of gain or loss on the assets of such Fund during each month.

condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release to such effect. 
 9.7 Payments on Behalf of Persons Under Incapacity. 
 In the event that any amount becomes payable under the Plan to a person who, in the sole judgment of the Committee, is considered by reason of physical or mental
condition to be unable to give a valid receipt therefore, the Committee may direct that such payment be made to any person found by the Committee, in its sole judgment, to have assumed the care of such person. Any payment made pursuant to such
determination shall constitute a full release and discharge of the Committee and the Company. 
 9.8 Limitation of Rights and Employment Relationship.

 Neither the establishment of the Plan and Trust nor any modification thereof, nor the creating of any fund or account, nor the payment of any benefits
shall be construed as giving to any Participant or other person any legal or equitable right against the Company or the trustee of the Trust except as provided in the Plan and Trust; and in no event shall the terms of employment of any Employee or
Participant be modified or in any way be affected by the provisions of the Plan and Trust.

 [Employee] 
 Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement 
 This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this
“Agreement”), dated as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Grant attached hereto (the “Grant Notice”), is made between The First American Corporation (the “Company”) and the Participant
set forth in the Grant Notice. The Grant Notice is included in and made part of this Agreement. 
 1. Definitions. 
 Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement (including the Grant Notice) have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 
 2. Grant of the Restricted Stock Units. 
 Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant, pursuant to the Plan, a right to receive the number of shares of common stock of the Company, par value $1.00 per
share (“Shares”), set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Restricted Stock Units”). 
 3. Dividend Equivalents.

 Each Restricted Stock Unit shall accrue Dividend Equivalents with respect to dividends that would otherwise be paid on the Share
underlying such Restricted Stock Unit during the period from the Grant Date to the date such Share is delivered in accordance with Section 6. Any such Dividend Equivalent shall be deemed reinvested in additional Shares underlying the Restricted
Stock Units within each Period of Restriction immediately upon the related dividend’s payment date, based on the then-current Fair Market Value (rounded down to the nearest whole number), and shall be subject to the Period of Restriction
applicable to the Restricted Stock Unit on which such Dividend Equivalent is paid. Any such conversion of Dividend Equivalents shall be conclusively determined by the Committee. The Shares underlying Restricted Stock Units into which Dividend
Equivalents are so converted shall be delivered in accordance with Section 6. 
 4. Period of Restriction; Termination.

 The Period of Restriction with respect to the Restricted Stock Units shall be as set forth in the Grant Notice. Subject to the terms of
the Plan and the remaining provisions of this Section 4, all Restricted Stock Units for which the Period of Restriction had not lapsed prior to the date of the Participant’s Termination shall be immediately forfeited. Notwithstanding the
foregoing to the contrary: 
  

	 	(a)	In the event of the Participant’s Termination due to his or her death, the Period of Restriction as to all Restricted Stock Units shall lapse in its entirety.

  

	 	(b)	In the event of the Participant’s Termination due to his or her Disability, the Period of Restriction as to all Restricted Stock Units shall lapse in its entirety, provided
that the Participant shall have signed a separation agreement in the form established by the Company. 

  

	 	(c)	In the event of the Participant’s Termination due to his or her Normal Retirement, the Period of Restriction as to all Restricted Stock Units shall continue in effect until,
and lapse on, the first anniversary of the date of such Normal Retirement, provided that the Participant shall have signed a separation agreement in the form established by the Company. 

  

	 	(d)	In the event of Participant’s Termination due to his or her Early Retirement, the outstanding Period of Restriction applicable to all Bonus Restricted Stock Units (but not any
Other Restricted Stock Units) shall continue in effect until, and lapse on, the first anniversary of the date of such Early Retirement, provided that the Participant shall have signed a separation agreement in the form established by the Company.

  

 - 2 - 

	 	(e)	In the event of the Participant’s involuntary Termination by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause, the outstanding Period of Restriction applicable to all Bonus Restricted
Stock Units (but not any Other Restricted Stock Units) shall continue in effect until, and lapse on, the first anniversary of the date of such Termination, provided that the Participant shall have signed a separation agreement in the form
established by the Company. 

 For purposes of this Agreement, “Normal Retirement” means Termination of the
Participant, other than for Cause, after the Participant has reached 62 years of age and “Early Retirement” means Termination of the Participant, other than for Cause, after the Participant has reached 55 years of age and been employed by
the Company and/or an Affiliate for more than 10 years. 
 5. Change of Control. 
 Except for a Change of Control that has been approved by the Company’s Incumbent Board prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control, the
provisions of Section 15.1 of the Plan shall apply to the Restricted Stock Units. 
 6. Delivery of Shares. 
 As soon as reasonably practicable following the lapse of the applicable portion of the Period of Restriction, but in no event later than 90 days
following the date of such lapse, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Participant the full number of Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units as to which such portion of the Period of Restriction has so lapsed, together with Shares
comprising all accrued Dividend Equivalents with respect to such Restricted Stock Units, subject to satisfaction of applicable tax withholding obligations with respect thereto pursuant to Article XVII of the Plan; provided, however, that if
the Participant’s Termination occurs due to Disability, such delivery of Shares shall be delayed for six months from the date of such Participant’s Termination if the Participant is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined
in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) and if necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes on the Participant pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. 
 7. No Ownership Rights Prior to Issuance of Shares. 
 Neither the Participant nor any other person
shall become the beneficial owner of the Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units, nor have any rights to dividends or other rights as a shareholder with respect to any such Shares, until and after such Shares have been actually issued to the
Participant and transferred on the books and records of the Company or its agent in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement. 
 8. Detrimental Activity. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time prior
to the delivery of Shares with respect to the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant engages in Detrimental Activity, such Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled and rescinded without any payment or consideration therefor. The determination of
whether the Participant has engaged in Detrimental Activity shall be made by the Committee in its good faith discretion, and lapse of the Period of Restriction and delivery of Shares with respect to the Restricted Stock Units shall be suspended
pending resolution to the Committee’s satisfaction of any investigation of the matter. 
 (b) For purposes of this Agreement,
“Detrimental Activity” means at any time (i) using information received during the Participant’s employment with the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates relating to the business affairs of the Company or any such
Subsidiaries or Affiliates, in breach of the Participant’s express or implied undertaking to keep such information confidential; (ii) directly or indirectly persuading or attempting to persuade, by any means, any employee of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates to breach any of the terms of his or her employment with Company, its Subsidiaries or its Affiliates; (iii) directly or indirectly making any statement that is, or could be, disparaging of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any of their respective employees (except to the extent necessary to respond truthfully to any inquiry from applicable regulatory authorities or to provide information pursuant to legal process);
(iv) directly or indirectly engaging in any illegal, unethical or otherwise wrongful activity that is, or could be, substantially injurious to the 

  

 - 3 - 

 
financial condition, reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; or (v) directly or indirectly engaging in an act of
misconduct such as, embezzlement, fraud, dishonesty, nonpayment of any obligation owed to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, breach of fiduciary duty or disregard or violation of rules, policies or procedures of the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, an unauthorized disclosure of any trade secret or confidential information of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, any conduct constituting unfair competition, or inducing any customer to breach a
contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, in each case as determined by the Committee in its good faith discretion. 
 9. No Right to Continued Employment. 
 None of the Restricted Stock Units nor any terms contained in this Agreement shall
confer upon the Participant any express or implied right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate for any period, nor restrict in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary or any Affiliate, which right is
hereby expressly reserved, to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time for any reason. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9 is not intended to amend or modify any other agreement, including any employment agreement, that
may be in existence between the Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate. 
 10. The Plan. 
 In consideration for this grant, the Participant agrees to comply with the terms of the Plan and
this Agreement. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, provisions and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference, and to such regulations as may from time to time be adopted by the Committee. In the event of any conflict
between the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall control, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly. The Plan and the prospectus describing the Plan can be found on Fidelity NetBenefits® at www.netbenefits.com under Plan Information and Documents. A paper copy of the Plan and the prospectus shall be provided to the Participant upon the Participant’s written request
to the Company at The First American Corporation, 1 First American Way, Santa Ana, California 92707, Attention: Incentive Compensation Plan Administrator, or such other address as the Company may from time to time specify. 
 11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. 
 (a) The Restricted Stock Units and the obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares hereunder shall be subject in all respects to (i) all applicable Federal and state laws, rules and regulations and (ii) any registration,
qualification, approvals or other requirements imposed by any government or regulatory agency or body which the Committee shall, in its discretion, determine to be necessary or applicable. Moreover, the Company shall not deliver any certificates for
Shares to the Participant or any other person pursuant to this Agreement if doing so would be contrary to applicable law. If at any time the Company determines, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of Shares upon any
national securities exchange or under any state or Federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable, the Company shall not be required to deliver any certificates for Shares to the Participant or
any other person pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained, or otherwise provided for, free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. 

(b) It is intended that the Shares received in respect of the Restricted Stock Units shall have been registered under the Securities Act. If the
Participant is an “affiliate” of the Company, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), the Participant may not sell the Shares received except in compliance with Rule 144. Certificates
representing Shares issued to an “affiliate” of the Company may bear a legend setting forth such restrictions on the disposition or transfer of the Shares as the Company deems appropriate to comply with Federal and state securities laws.

 (c) If, at any time, the Shares are not registered under the Securities Act, and/or there is no current prospectus in effect under the
Securities Act with respect to the Shares, the Participant shall execute, prior to the delivery of any Shares to the Participant by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, an agreement (in such form as the Company may specify) in which the
Participant represents and warrants that the Participant is purchasing or acquiring the shares acquired under this Agreement for the Participant’s own account, for investment only and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and
represents and agrees that any subsequent offer for 

  

 - 4 - 

 
sale or distribution of any kind of such Shares shall be made only pursuant to either (i) a registration statement on an appropriate form under the
Securities Act, which registration statement has become effective and is current with regard to the Shares being offered or sold, or (ii) a specific exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, but in claiming such
exemption the Participant shall, prior to any offer for sale of such Shares, obtain a prior favorable written opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, from counsel for or approved by the Company, as to the applicability of such
exemption thereto. 
 12. Notices. 
 All notices by the Participant or the Participant’s assignees shall be addressed to The First American Corporation, 1 First American Way, Santa Ana, California 92707, Attention: Incentive Compensation Plan
Administrator, or such other address as the Company may from time to time specify. All notices to the Participant shall be addressed to the Participant at the Participant’s address in the Company’s records. 
 13. Severability. 
 In the event any
provision of this Agreement shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid
provision had not been included. 
  

 - 5 - 

 14. Other Plans. 
 The Participant acknowledges that any income derived from the Restricted Stock Units shall not affect the Participant’s participation in, or benefits under, any other benefit plan or other contract or arrangement
maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate. For purposes of the Company’s Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan and Management Supplemental Benefit Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time, Bonus Restricted Stock Units
shall be deemed to be “Covered Compensation” in an amount equal to 100% of their Fair Market Value on the Date of Grant. Other Restricted Stock Units shall not be deemed to be “Covered Compensation.” Dividend Equivalents paid on
either Bonus Restricted Stock Units or Other Restricted Stock Units shall not be deemed to be “Covered Compensation” under such plans. 
 15. Vesting of RSUs Contingent on Company Performance. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement, except in
the event of an acceleration of vesting pursuant to Section 4(a) or Section 5 of this Agreement, the Participant’s entitlement to the receipt of any Shares hereunder is contingent upon the Company’s achievement of net income (as
defined in accordance with generally acceptable accounting principals) for 2009 of $50 million or more. Net income shall be determined without regard to (a) asset write-downs, (b) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (c) the
effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws or provisions affecting reported results, (d) any reorganization and restructuring programs, (e) extraordinary, unusual and/or nonrecurring items of gain or loss, and
(f) foreign exchange gains and losses. If the Company consummates a spin-off of one or more entities prior to December 31, 2009, the performance condition specified in the previous sentence shall be determined by adding to the net income
of the Company the net income of any entity whose stock was distributed to the shareholders of the Company.
