               AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of _________ ___, 200__ by
and between XL Capital Ltd, a Cayman Islands corporation ("XL"), and <<Grantee>>
(the "Grantee").

               WHEREAS, the Grantee is an employee of XL and/or any of its
subsidiaries (collectively called the "Company"); and

               WHEREAS, XL regards the Grantee as a valuable employee of the
Company and has determined it to be in the interest of the Company to grant to
the Grantee an award of Performance Restricted Stock Units under the Company's
1991 Performance Incentive Program;

               NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual
covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, XL
and the Grantee agree as follows:

               (a) GRANT OF PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS.

               XL hereby grants to the Grantee an award (the "Award") of
<<No. of Shares>> Performance Restricted Stock Units subject to the restrictions
set forth below (the "Performance Restricted Stock Units"). The date of grant of

               (i) 25% of the Performance Restricted Share Units subject to the
Award will vest on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of
the Date of Grant (or, if later, the date the Board determines that the
applicable ROE (as defined below) threshold has been met), in each case if, and
only if, the consolidated return on equity of the Company, as determined by the
Board, (the "ROE") for the immediately preceding calendar year equals or exceeds
[__]%.

               (ii) If in any year the portion of the Performance Restricted
Share Units subject to vesting for the first time under (i) above does not vest
because the ROE for the immediately preceding calendar year was below the [__]%
threshold set forth in (i) above, such portion of the Performance Restricted
Share Units will vest on the next anniversary of the Date of Grant (or, if
later, the date the Board determines that the applicable ROE threshold has been
met), in each case if, and only if, the ROE for the two calendar year period
immediately preceding such next anniversary (for this purpose treating the ROE
for any calendar year as not less than zero) equals or exceeds [__]% per annum,
compounded annually.

               (iii) If any portion of the Performance Restricted Share Units
subject to the Award fails to vest in two or more successive years due to the
failure to achieve the required ROE thresholds, such portion of the Performance
Restricted Share Units will vest on the next anniversary of the Date of Grant
(or, if later, the date the Board determines that the applicable ROE threshold
has been met), in each case if, and only if, the ROE for the three calendar year
period immediately preceding such next anniversary (for this purpose treating
the ROE for any calendar year as not less than zero) equals or exceeds [__]% per
annum, compounded annually.

later than the 20th day of February next following the end of the period.

immediately following termination of the Grantee's employment shall be
immediately forfeited.

               (c)   DISTRIBUTION OF STOCK.

               At the time the Award vests in accordance with paragraph (b)
above, the Company shall distribute to the Grantee a number of Ordinary Shares,
US$0.01 par value per share, of XL (the "Shares") equal to the number of
Performance Restricted Stock Units which vested. Prior to the Company's delivery
of the Shares, the Grantee shall pay to XL an amount of cash equal to the par
value for each of such Shares delivered.
