Exhibit 10.2

EXECUTION COPY

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

          THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) by and between MGIC Investment Corporation (the
“Company”), and Teresa Bryce (the “Executive”), dated as of February 6, 2007 and effective as of
the Effective Time (as defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between Radian Group Inc.
(“Radian”) and the Company dated as of February 6, 2007 (the “Merger Agreement”)). In the event
that the Effective Time does not occur this Agreement shall be null and void ab
initio and of no further force and effect.

          The Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its
shareholders to assure that the Company will have the dedication of the Executive pending and
following the Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

          NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

          1. Effective Date. The “Effective Date” shall mean the date on which the Effective
Time occurs.

          2. Employment Period. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive, and the
Executive hereby agrees to serve the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, for the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the third anniversary of
the Effective Date (the “Employment Period”).

          3. Terms of Employment. (a) Position and Duties. (i) During the Employment
Period, the Executive shall serve as the Head of Corporate Strategy and Corporate Secretary of the
Company with such duties and responsibilities as are customarily assigned to such positions.
During the Employment Period, the Executive shall report directly to the President and Chief
Operating Officer of the Company and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

               (ii) During the Employment Period, and excluding any periods of vacation and sick leave to
which the Executive is entitled, the Executive agrees to devote substantially all of her business
attention and time to the business and affairs of the Company and, to the extent necessary to
discharge the responsibilities assigned to the Executive hereunder, to use the Executive’s
reasonable best efforts to perform faithfully and efficiently such responsibilities. During the
Employment Period, it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the Executive to (A) subject
to the approval of the Board, serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees, (B)
deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions and (C) manage
personal investments, so long as such activities do not significantly interfere with the
performance of the Executive’s responsibilities as an employee of the Company in accordance with
this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the extent that any such activities
have been conducted by the Executive prior to the Effective Date, the continued conduct of such
activities (or the conduct of activities similar in nature and scope thereto if in the aggregate
such pre-Effective Date activities and such similar activities do not require a commitment of time
from the Executive that is materially greater than the time devoted

 

 

to such pre-Effective Date activities) subsequent to the Effective Date shall not thereafter
be deemed to interfere significantly with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities to
the Company.

          (b) Compensation.

               (i) Effective Date Benefits. For purposes of all plans, programs, policies,
agreements and other arrangements maintained by Radian or its affiliates in which the Executive
participates as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Merger shall be deemed to be a
“change of control” or similar term, as applicable, for purposes of determining the Executive’s
rights and benefits under such plans, programs, policies, agreements and other arrangements. As of
the Effective Date, the Executive will be granted a number of restricted shares of the Company’s
common stock equal to 120 percent of the full amount to which the Executive would be entitled under
Section 3(b) of the Change of Control Agreement between Radian and the Executive dated as of
November 14, 2006 (the “Change of Control Agreement”) assuming that the Merger constituted a
“Change of Control” (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement) and the Executive’s employment
had been terminated pursuant to a “Qualifying Termination” (as defined in the Change of Control
Agreement) as of immediately following the Merger, which shall vest and no longer be subject to
restriction in equal annual installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of
the Effective Date, subject to the Executive’s continued employment through such date (the
“Restricted Shares”). The grant of Restricted Shares shall be in lieu of the Executive receiving
any amount to which the Executive would be entitled under Section 3(b) of the Change of Control
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Shares shall vest in full and no longer
be subject to forfeiture if, on or prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, the
Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined
below), by reason of the Executive’s death or Disability (as defined below) or by the Executive for
Good Reason (as defined below). The number of Restricted Shares to be provided hereunder shall be
determined by dividing (A) the amount determined under the second sentence of this paragraph by (B)
the product of (1) price of a share of Radian common stock immediately prior to the Effective Time
and (2) the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Merger Agreement). Except as otherwise provided in
this paragraph, the terms of the Restricted Shares shall be consistent with the terms of the
Company’s equity incentive plan and award agreements thereunder provided to senior executives of
the Company, provided that in no event shall any restrictive covenants contained in such plan or
award agreements be applicable to the Executive. In addition, following the Effective Date, the
Executive shall be eligible for a special integration bonus based on the success of the integration
of the business of Radian with the business of the Company.

               (ii) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall receive an annual
base salary (“Annual Base Salary”) at a rate of not less than $350,000 payable in accordance with
the Company’s normal payroll policies. The Executive’s Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed for
increase at least annually by the Board pursuant to its normal performance review policies for
senior executives. Annual Base Salary shall not be reduced after any increase and the term Annual
Base Salary as utilized in this Agreement shall refer to Annual Base Salary as so increased.

2

 

               (iii) Annual Bonus. With respect to each fiscal year ending during the Employment
Period, the Executive shall receive an annual bonus (“Annual Bonus”) as determined by the
Compensation Committee of the Board on terms and conditions no less favorable than those applicable
to other senior executives of the Company, except that for the first fiscal year that ends in the
Initial Period the amount required by the preceding provision of this clause (iii) shall be reduced
by the amount of any bonus paid by Romeo on account of performance in such year (or portion
thereof). It is understood that the term “bonus” as used in the immediately preceding sentence
excludes long-term equity incentives of the type described in the “Compensation and Human Resources
Committee Report on Executive Compensation” contained in Romeo’s proxy statement for its 2006
annual meeting of shareholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Executive’s
target bonus as a percentage of the Annual Base Salary be less than the Executive’s target bonus as
a percentage of the Executive’s annual base salary as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

               (iv) Equity-Based Grants and Other Long Term Incentives. With respect to each fiscal
year during the Employment Period, the Executive’s equity-based awards and other long-term
incentives shall be commensurate with the Executive’s position and on terms and conditions no less
favorable than those applicable to the awards and incentives granted to other senior executives of
the Company.

               (v) Retirement Benefits; General Credited Service. During the Employment Period, the
Executive shall be entitled to participate in all savings and retirement plans that are
tax-qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”),
and in all plans that are supplemental to any such tax-qualified plans, in each case, as are
applicable to senior executives of the Company generally (it being understood that for a short
transition period following the Effective Date the Executive may continue to participate in the
plans in which the Executive participated in immediately prior to the Effective Time). All service
with Radian and its affiliates (and their respective predecessors) credited to the Executive under
any compensation and benefit plans, programs, policies, agreements and arrangements of Radian and
its affiliates shall be provided to the Executive for purposes of any corresponding compensation
and benefit plans, programs, policies, agreements and arrangements of the Company and its
affiliates, except as would result in a duplication of benefits.

               (vi) Other Employee Benefit Plans. During the Employment Period, the Executive and/or
the Executive’s family, as the case may be, shall be eligible for participation in and shall
receive all benefits under all welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by
the Company (including, without limitation, medical, prescription, dental, vision, disability,
salary continuance, group life and supplemental group life, accidental death, travel accident
insurance, sick leave and vacation plans, practices, policies and programs), on the same basis as
such plans, practices, policies and programs are applicable or made available to the senior
executives of the Company generally (it being understood that for a short transition period
following the Effective Date the Executive may continue to participate in the plans in which the
Executive participated in immediately prior to the Effective Time). During the Employment Period,
the Executive shall be eligible for participation in fringe benefits and perquisite plans,
practices, policies and programs (including, without limitation, expense reimbursement plans,
practices, policies and programs) no less favorable than those applicable or made available to
senior executives of the Company generally. Without limiting the generality

3

 

of the foregoing, the Executive shall receive relocation benefits appropriate for a senior
executive of the Company in connection with her relocation to Milwaukee, Wisconsin from
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

          4. Termination of Employment. (a) Death or Disability. The Executive’s
employment shall terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death during the Employment Period.
If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of the Executive has occurred during
the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), it may provide
the Executive with written notice in accordance with Section 10(b) of this Agreement of its
intention to terminate the Executive’s employment. In such event, the Executive’s employment with
the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by the Executive
(the “Disability Effective Date”), provided that, within the 30 days after such receipt,
the Executive shall not have returned to full-time performance of the Executive’s duties. For
purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the absence of the Executive from the
Executive’s duties with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive business days as a
result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness which is determined to be total and
permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Executive or
the Executive’s legal representative.

          (b) Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment during the Employment
Period either with or without Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

               (i) the Executive is convicted of, or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to a charge of
commission of, a felony; or

               (ii) the Executive has engaged in willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct in
carrying out her duties, which results in material economic harm to the Company or in reputational
harm causing quantifiable material injury to the Company.

For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act, on the part of the Executive, shall be
considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or
without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the
Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly
adopted by the Board or upon the instructions of the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Operating
Officer of the Company or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively
presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best
interests of the Company. The cessation of employment of the Executive shall not be deemed to be
for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution
duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds of the entire membership of the
Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is
provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an opportunity, together with counsel, to be
heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive is
guilty of the conduct described in clause (ii) above, and specifying the particulars thereof in
detail.

4

 

          (c) Good Reason. The Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Executive with
Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean in the absence of a written
consent of the Executive:

               (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent with the Executive’s position
(including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or
responsibilities as contemplated by Section 3(a) of this Agreement, or any other action by the
Company which results in a diminution in such position, authority, duties or responsibilities,
excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial or inadvertent action not taken in bad faith
and which is remedied by the Company within 30 days after receipt of notice thereof given by the
Executive;

               (ii) any failure by the Company to comply with any of the provisions of Section 3(b) of this
Agreement, other than an isolated, insubstantial or inadvertent failure not occurring in bad faith
and which is remedied by the Company within 30 days after receipt of notice thereof given by the
Executive;

               (iii) any requirement by the Company that the Executive’s services be rendered primarily at a
location or locations other than the Milwaukee, Wisconsin metropolitan area other than travel
reasonably required to carry out the Executive’s obligations under this Agreement; or

               (iv) any failure by the Company to comply with Section 9(c) of this Agreement unless
compliance with such Section is effected within three business days after notice of such failure is
given to the Company and giving effect to such delayed compliance, the rights of the Executive are
not prejudiced compared to what the Executive’s rights would have been had such compliance occurred
at the time required by Section 9(c).

          (d) Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company for Cause, or by the
Executive for Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto
given in accordance with Section 10(b) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a
“Notice of Termination” means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination
provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable
detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s
employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below)
is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall
be not more than 30 days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Executive or the
Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a
showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the Company,
respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such
fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder.

          (e) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” means (i) if the Executive’s
employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive with or without Good Reason,
the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein within 30 days
of such notice, as the case may be, (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by

5

 

the Company other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date on
which the Company notifies the Executive of such termination and (iii) if the Executive’s
employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the
date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.

          (f) Resignation. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the
Executive agrees to resign, as of the Date of Termination, to the extent applicable, from any
positions that the Executive holds with the Company and its affiliated companies (including any
joint ventures), the Board (and any committees thereof) and the Board of Directors (and any
committees thereof) of any of the affiliated companies.

          5. Obligations of the Company upon Termination. (a) Good Reason; Other Than for
Cause, Death or Disability. If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the
Executive’s employment other than for Cause, death or Disability or the Executive shall terminate
employment for Good Reason:

               (i) the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date
of Termination (but in no event prior to the expiration of the revocation period contained in the
release described in this Section 5(a)) the aggregate of the following amounts:

     A. the sum of (1) the Executive’s accrued Annual Base Salary and any accrued
vacation pay through the Date of Termination, (2) the Executive’s business expenses
that have not been reimbursed by the Company as of the Date of Termination that were
incurred by the Executive prior to the Date of Termination in accordance with the
applicable Company policy, and (3) the Executive’s Annual Bonus earned for the
fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination
occurs if such bonus has been determined but not paid as of the Date of Termination
(the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1) through (3), shall be hereinafter
referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”); and

     B. the product of (1) the sum of (x) the Annual Base Salary and (y) the highest
annual bonus paid or payable to the Executive for any of the three fiscal years
prior to the Date of Termination (but not including any bonus paid or payable in
respect of her employment by any employer prior to Radian) or if no annual bonus has
been paid with respect to a full fiscal year (it being understood that 2007 shall be
deemed to be a full fiscal year), the target bonus and (2) a fraction, the numerator
of which is equal to the greater of (i) the number of months from the Date of
Termination until the third anniversary of the Effective Date and (ii) 24 and the
denominator of which is 12 (such fraction, the “Severance Period”); and

6

 

               (ii) any equity-based awards granted to the Executive, including the Restricted Shares, shall
vest and become free of restrictions immediately and all restrictive covenants in any plans or
agreements governing such equity-based compensation awards shall be of no further force and effect
(the “Equity Benefits”); and

               (iii) for a number of years and portions thereof equal to the Severance Period, subject to the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code (the “Benefit Continuation Period”), the Company shall
continue to provide medical and dental benefits to the Executive and her eligible dependents as if
the Executive remained an active employee of the Company, and the Executive and her eligible
dependents shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s post-retirement welfare benefit
programs in effect for senior executives of the Company. The Executive’s entitlement to COBRA
continuation coverage under Section 4980B of the Code (“COBRA Coverage”) shall not be offset by the
provision of benefits under this Section 5(a)(iii) and the period of COBRA Coverage shall commence
at the end of the Benefit Continuation Period (the benefits set forth in this Section 5(a)(iii),
collectively “Medical Benefits”); and

               (iv) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide
to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the
Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or
agreement of the Company and its affiliated companies through the Date of Termination, except for
any amounts and benefits in the nature of severance, which shall be excluded (such other amounts
and benefits that are required to be provided under the preceding provisions of this sentence shall
be hereinafter referred to as the “Other Benefits”). As used in this Agreement, the term
“affiliated companies” shall include any company controlled by, controlling or under common control
with the Company.

In the event of the Executive’s termination during the Employment Period by the Company other than
for Cause or Disability or by the Executive for Good Reason, each of the Executive and the Company
agree to execute a mutual general release in favor of the other party, substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A. The payments and provision of benefits to the Executive
required by this Section 5(a) (other than the Accrued Obligations and Other Benefits) shall be
conditioned upon the Executive’s delivery (and non-revocation prior to the expiration of the
revocation period contained in the release) of such release in favor of the Company, subject to the
Company’s delivery to the Executive of such release in favor of the Executive. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 5(a), to the extent required in order to comply with Section
409A of the Code or regulations thereunder, cash amounts that would otherwise be payable under this
Section 5(a) during the six-month period immediately following the Date of Termination shall
instead be paid, with interest on any delayed payment at the applicable federal rate provided for
in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code (“Interest”), on the first business day after the date that is
six months following the Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A
of the Code.

          (b) Death. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s
death during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to
the Executive’s legal representatives under this Agreement, other than for (1) payment of Accrued
Obligations, (2) the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits and (3) payment of the product
of (x) the highest annual bonus paid or payable to the Executive for any

7

 

of the three fiscal years prior to such termination (but not including any bonus paid or
payable in respect of her employment by any employer prior to Radian) or if no annual bonus has
been paid with respect to a full fiscal year (it being understood that 2007 shall be deemed to be a
full fiscal year), the target bonus and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
days elapsed in the fiscal year in which such termination occurs through the Date of Termination,
and the denominator of which is 365 (the “Prorata Bonus”). In addition, the Executive shall
receive the Equity Benefits. Accrued Obligations and the Prorata Bonus shall be paid to the
Executive’s estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date
of Termination. With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as
utilized in this Section 5(b) shall include death benefits for which the Company pays as in effect
on the date of the Executive’s death and the continued provision of the Medical Benefits.

          (c) Disability. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company by reason
of the Executive’s Disability during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without
further obligations to the Executive, other than for (1) payment of Accrued Obligations, (2) the
timely payment or provision of Other Benefits and (3) payment of the Prorata Bonus. In addition,
the Executive shall receive the Equity Benefits. Accrued Obligations and the Prorata Bonus shall
be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination,
provided, that to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code,
amounts and benefits to be paid or provided under this Section 5(c) shall be paid, with Interest,
or provided to the Executive on the first business day after the date that is six months following
the Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. With
respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as utilized in this Section
5(c) shall include, and the Executive shall be entitled after the Disability Effective Date to
receive, disability and other benefits as in effect at any time thereafter generally with respect
to senior executives of the Company generally and the continued provision of Medical Benefits.

          (d) Cause; Other than for Good Reason. If the Executive’s employment shall be
terminated by the Company for Cause or the Executive terminates her employment without Good Reason
during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the
Executive other than the obligation to pay to the Executive (i) the Accrued Obligations through the
Date of Termination and (ii) Other Benefits, in each case to the extent theretofore unpaid.
Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date
of Termination, provided, that to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A
of the Code, amounts and benefits to be paid or provided under this Section 5(d) shall be paid or
provided to the Executive on the first business day after the date that is six months following the
Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

          6. Full Settlement. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in
this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any
set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may
have against the Executive or others. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other
employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive
under any of the provisions of this Agreement and, such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not
the Executive obtains other employment. The Company agrees to

8

 

pay as incurred, to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which the
Executive may reasonably incur as a result of any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by
the Company, the Executive or others of the validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any
provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance thereof (including as a result of any
contest by the Executive about the amount of any payment pursuant to this Agreement), with Interest
on any delayed payment.

          7. Certain Additional Payments by the Company. (a) Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution by
the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard
to any additional payments required under this Section 7) (a “Payment”) would be subject to the
excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by the
Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and
penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive shall
be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after
payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to
such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties
imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive
retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments.

          (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 7(c) of this Agreement, all determinations required
to be made under this Section 7, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the
amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such
determination, shall be made by Deloitte & Touche LLP or such other nationally recognized certified
public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Executive as may be designated by the Company
(the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company
and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Executive that there
has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. All fees and expenses of
the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined
pursuant to this Section 7, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive or directly to the
Internal Revenue Service, in the sole discretion of the Company, within five business days of the
later of (i) the due date for the payment of any Excise Tax, and (ii) the receipt of the Accounting
Firm’s determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company
and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code
at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that
Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made
(“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event
that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 7(c) of this Agreement and the Executive
thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the
amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by
the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive.

          (c) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue
Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of the

9

 

Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than
ten business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the
Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date
on which it gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any
payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in
writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive
shall:

               (i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such
claim,

               (ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably
request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation
with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company,

               (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim, and

               (iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;

“provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and
expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and
shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or
income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such
representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions
of this Section 7(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such
contest, and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals,
proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may,
at its sole option, either pay the tax claimed to the appropriate taxing authority on behalf of the
Executive and direct the Executive to sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible
manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any
administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as
the Company shall determine; provided, however, that, if the Company pays such
claim and directs the Executive to sue for a refund, the Company shall indemnify and hold the
Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or
penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such payment or with respect to any imputed
income in connection with such payment; and provided, further, that any extension
of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive
with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such
contested amount. Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues
with respect to which the Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder, and the Executive shall be
entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue
Service or any other taxing authority.

10

 

          (d) If, after the receipt by the Executive of a payment by the Company of an amount on the
Executive’s behalf pursuant to Section 7(c) of this Agreement, the Executive becomes entitled to
receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s
complying with the requirements of Section 7(c) of this Agreement) promptly pay to the Company the
amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable
thereto). If, after payment by the Company of an amount on the Executive’s behalf pursuant to
Section 7(c) of this Agreement, a determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to
any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of
its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of 30 days after such
determination, then the amount of such payment shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of
Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

          8. Restrictive Covenants.

          (a) Non-Competition. During the Employment Period, and for the 12 month period
beginning on the date the Executive’s employment terminates, for any reason, other than in the case
of the expiration of this Agreement at the end of the Employment Period (the “Restriction Period”),
the Executive hereby agrees that she will not, without the Company’s express written consent,
engage in (directly or indirectly), in any capacity in which Proprietary Information of the Company
would reasonably be considered useful, any employment or business activity whose primary business
involves or relates to providing mortgage insurance or financial guaranty to financial
institutions located anywhere in the United States of America and or in any country of the World in
which the Company provided mortgage insurance or financial guaranty to financial institutions, or
actively attempted to do so, within 12 months prior to the date the Executive’s employment
terminates, or would otherwise conflict with the Executive’s employment by the Company (“Competing
Employer”).

          (b) Non-Solicitation of Certain Company Personnel. During the Employment Period and
for the Restriction Period, the Executive hereby agrees that she will not, either directly or
through others, solicit or attempt to solicit any then-current employee, consultant or independent
contractor of the Company in regards to whom, in the 12 months preceding termination of the
Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive provided direct supervision or in regards to
whom the Executive received Proprietary Information, to change or terminate his or her relationship
with the Company or otherwise to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to, for
or of any other person or business entity, unless more than twelve months shall have elapsed
between the last day of such person’s employment or service with the Company and the first date of
such solicitation or attempt to solicit. If any employee, consultant or independent contractor in
regards to whom, in the 12 months preceding termination of the Executive’s employment with the
Company, the Executive provided direct supervision or received Proprietary Information, is
solicited by any entity that has at that time hired or agreed to hire the Executive, to work
directly or indirectly under the supervision of or in any way in concert with the Executive, such
solicitation shall be conclusively presumed to be a violation of this Section 8(b).

          (c) Non-Solicitation of Certain Customers. During the Employment Period and for the
Restriction Period, the Executive hereby agrees that she will not, either directly or through
others, solicit, divert or appropriate, or attempt to solicit, divert or appropriate any

11

 

customer or actively sought prospective customer of the Company in regards to whom or which
the Executive received any Proprietary Information, for the purpose of providing such customer or
actively sought prospective customer with services or products competitive with those offered by
the Company during the Employment Period.

          (d) Proprietary Information. During the Employment Period and for the Restriction
Period, the Executive will hold in strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, lecture upon or
publish any of the Company’s Proprietary Information (defined below) under any circumstances
reasonably likely to enable use of such information in competition with the Company anywhere in the
United States or in any country of the World in which the Company provided mortgage insurance or
financial guaranty to financial institutions, or actively attempted to do so, within 12 months
prior to the date the Executive’s employment terminates, except as such disclosure, use or
publication may be required in connection with the Executive’s work for the Company, or unless the
Company expressly authorizes such disclosure in writing or it is required by law or in a judicial
or administrative proceeding in which event the Executive shall promptly notify the Company of the
required disclosure and assist the Company if it determines to resist the disclosure. “Proprietary
Information” shall mean any and all confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information
of the Company, its affiliated entities (including joint ventures), any of its portfolio companies,
investors, and partners, including but not limited to information relating to financial matters,
investments, budgets, business plans, marketing plans, personnel matters, business contacts,
products, processes, know-how, designs, methods, improvements, discoveries, inventions, ideas,
data, programs, and other works of authorship.

          (e) Invention Assignment. The Executive agrees that all inventions, innovations,
improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, reports, and all similar or related
information which relates to the Company’s actual or anticipated business, research and development
or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive
while employed by the Company (“Work Product”) belong to the Company. The Executive will promptly
disclose such Work Product to the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board
(whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including,
without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorneys and other instruments).

          (f) Return of Company Property. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment
with the Company for any reason whatsoever, voluntarily or involuntarily, and at any earlier time
the Company requests, the Executive will deliver to the person designated by the Company all
originals and copies of all documents and property of the Company in the Executive’s possession,
under the Executive’s control or to which the Executive may have access. The Executive will not
reproduce or appropriate for the Executive’s own use, or for the use of others, any property,
Proprietary Information or Company Inventions.

          (g) Acknowledgement. The Executive acknowledges that the Company would be irreparably
injured by a violation of this Section 8 and the Executive agrees that the Company, in addition to
any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, shall be entitled, without
posting a bond, to a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, or other equivalent
relief, restraining the Executive from any actual or threatened breach of this Section 8.

12

 

          9. Successors. (a) This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior
written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal representatives, heirs or
legatees.

          (b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its
successors and assigns.

          (c) The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As
used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any successor
to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by
operation of law, or otherwise.

          10. Miscellaneous. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin, without reference to principles of conflict of
laws. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force
or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement
executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

          (b) All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by
hand delivery to the other party or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

	 	 	 
	 If to the Executive:

or to such other address as either party shall have furnished to the other in writing in accordance
herewith. Notice and communications shall be effective when actually received by the addressee.

          (b) The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

          (c) The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such Federal,
state, local or foreign taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or
regulation.

          (d) The Executive’s or the Company’s failure to insist upon strict compliance with any
provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right the Executive or the

13

 

Company may have hereunder, including, without limitation, the right of the Executive to
terminate employment for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(c)(i)-(iv) of this Agreement, shall not
be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this
Agreement.

          (e) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, from and after the Effective Date, this
Agreement shall supersede any other employment, severance or change of control agreement between
the parties and between the Executive and Radian, with respect to the subject matter hereof
(including without limitation, the Change of Control Agreement). Any provision of this Agreement
that by its terms continues after the expiration of the Employment Period or the termination of the
Executive’s employment shall survive in accordance with its terms.

          (f) If any compensation or benefits provided by this Agreement may result in the application
of Section 409A of the Code, the Company shall, in consultation with the Executive, modify the
Agreement in the least restrictive manner necessary in order to exclude such compensation from the
definition of “deferred compensation” within the meaning of such Section 409A of the Code or in
order to comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, other applicable provision(s) of
the Code and/or any rules, regulations or other regulatory guidance issued under such statutory
provisions and without any diminution in the value of the payments to the Executive.

14

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Executive has hereunto set the Executive’s hand and, pursuant to the
authorization from its Board of Directors, the Company has caused these presents to be executed in
its name on its behalf, all as of the day and year first above written.

Exhibit A

Release

     For and in consideration of the payments and other benefits described in the employment
agreement dated as of [ ] (the “Agreement”) between [ ] (the “Company”) and
[ ] (the “Executive”) and for other good and valuable consideration, Executive hereby
releases the Company, its divisions, affiliates, subsidiaries, parents, branches, predecessors,
successors, assigns, officers, directors, trustees, employees, agents, shareholders,
administrators, representatives, attorneys, insurers and fiduciaries, past, present and future (the
“Released Parties”) from any and all claims of any kind arising out of, or related to, her
employment with the Company, its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, with the Company, the
“Affiliated Entities”), her separation from employment with the Affiliated Entities or
derivative of Executive’s employment, which Executive now has or may have against the Released
Parties, whether known or unknown to Executive, by reason of facts which have occurred on or prior
to the date that Executive has signed this Release. Such released claims include, without
limitation, any and all claims under federal, state or local laws pertaining to employment,
including, without limitation, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 2000e et. seq., the Fair Labor Standards
Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. Section 201 et. seq., the Americans with Disabilities Act, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 12101 et. seq. the Reconstruction Era Civil Rights Act, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 1981 et. seq., the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 29
U.S.C. Section 701 et. seq., the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1992, 29 U.S.C. Section
2601 et. seq., and any and all state or local laws regarding employment discrimination
and/or federal, state or local laws of any type or description regarding employment, including but
not limited to any claims arising from or derivative of Executive’s employment with the Affiliated
Entities, as well as any and all claims under state contract or tort law.

     Executive has read this Release carefully, acknowledges that Executive has been given at least
21 days to consider all of its terms and has been advised to consult with any attorney and any
other advisors of Executive’s choice prior to executing this Release, and Executive fully
understands that by signing below Executive is voluntarily giving up any right which Executive may
have to sue or bring any other claims against the Released Parties, including any rights and claims
under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. Executive also understands that Executive has a
period of seven days after signing this Release within which to revoke her agreement, and that
neither the Company nor any other person is obligated to make any payments or provide any other
benefits to Executive pursuant to the Agreement until eight days have passed since Executive’s
signing of this Release without Executive’s signature having been revoked, other than the Accrued
Obligations and the Other Benefits (in each case, as defined in the Agreement). Finally, Executive
has not been forced or pressured in any manner whatsoever to sign this Release, and Executive
agrees to all of its terms voluntarily.

 

 

     For and in consideration of the obligations upon Executive as set forth in the Agreement, and
for other good and valuable consideration, the Company hereby (on its own behalf and that of the
other Affiliated Entities, the divisions and predecessors and successors of the Affiliated Entities
and the directors and officers of the Company in their capacity as such (collectively, the
“Releasing Entities”)) releases Executive and her heirs, executors, successors and assigns
(the “Executive Released Parties”) of and from all debts, obligations, promises, covenants,
collective bargaining obligations, agreements, contracts, endorsements, bonds, controversies,
suits, claims or causes of every kind and nature whatsoever, arising out of, or related to, her
employment with the Affiliated Entities, her separation from employment with the Affiliated
Entities or derivative of Executive’s employment, which the Releasing Entities now have or may have
against the Executive Released Parties, whether known or unknown, by reason of facts which have
occurred on or prior to the date that the Company has signed this Release; provided,
however, that nothing contained in this Release shall release the Executive Released
Parties from any claim or form of liability arising out of acts or omissions by Executive which
constitute a violation of the criminal or securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

     Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, this Release shall not affect: the
obligations of the Company or Executive set forth in the Agreement or other obligations that, in
each case, by their terms, are to be performed after the date hereof by the Company or Executive
(including, without limitation, obligations to Executive under any stock option, stock award or
agreements or obligations under any pension plan or other benefit or deferred compensation plan,
all of which shall remain in effect in accordance with their terms); obligations to indemnify
Executive respecting acts or omissions in connection with Executive’s service as a director,
officer or employee of the Affiliated Entities; or any right Executive may have to obtain
contribution in the event of the entry of judgment against Executive as a result of any act or
failure to act for which both Executive and any of the Affiliated Entities are jointly responsible.

     This Release, and the attached covenants, are final and binding and may not be changed or
modified except in a writing signed by both parties.

Exhibit 10.3

EXECUTION COPY 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) by and between MGIC Investment Corporation (the
“Company”), and Mark Casale (the “Executive”), dated as of February 6, 2007 and effective as of the
Effective Time (as defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger by and between Radian Group Inc.
(“Radian”) and the Company dated as of February 6, 2007 (the “Merger Agreement”)). In the event
that the Effective Time does not occur this Agreement shall be null and void ab
initio and of no further force and effect.

     The Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its
shareholders to assure that the Company will have the dedication of the Executive pending and
following the Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

     NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

     1. Effective Date. The “Effective Date” shall mean the date on which the
Effective Time occurs.

     2. Employment Period. The Company hereby agrees to employ the Executive,
and the Executive hereby agrees to serve the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, for the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the third anniversary of
the Effective Date (the “Employment Period”).

     3. Terms of Employment. (a) Position and Duties. (i) During the
Employment Period, the Executive shall serve as the Head of Capital Markets of the Company with
such duties and responsibilities as are customarily assigned to such position. During the
Employment Period, the Executive shall report directly to the President of the Mortgage Insurance
Business of the Company.

          (ii) During the Employment Period, and excluding any periods of vacation and sick
leave to which the Executive is entitled, the Executive agrees to devote substantially all of his
business attention and time to the business and affairs of the Company and, to the extent necessary
to discharge the responsibilities assigned to the Executive hereunder, to use the Executive’s
reasonable best efforts to perform faithfully and efficiently such responsibilities. During the
Employment Period, it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the Executive to (A) subject
to the approval of the Board, serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees, (B)
deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions and (C) manage
personal investments, so long as such activities do not significantly interfere with the
performance of the Executive’s responsibilities as an employee of the Company in accordance with
this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the extent that any such activities
have been conducted by the Executive prior to the Effective Date, the continued conduct of such
activities (or the conduct of activities similar in nature and scope thereto if in the aggregate
such pre-Effective Date activities and such similar activities do not require a commitment of time
from the Executive that is materially greater than the time devoted to such pre-Effective Date
activities) subsequent to the Effective Date shall not thereafter be

 

 

deemed to interfere
significantly with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities to the Company.

     (b) Compensation.

          (i) Effective Date Benefits. For purposes of all plans, programs, policies,
agreements and other arrangements maintained by Radian or its affiliates in which the Executive
participates as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Merger shall be deemed to be a
“change of control” or similar term, as applicable, for purposes of determining the Executive’s
rights and benefits under such plans, programs, policies, agreements and other arrangements. As of
the Effective Date, the Executive will be granted a number of restricted shares of the Company’s
common stock equal to 120 percent of the full amount to which the Executive would be entitled under
Section 3(b) of the Change of Control Agreement between Radian and the Executive dated as of
November 9, 2004 (the “Change of Control Agreement”) assuming that the Merger constituted a “Change
of Control” (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement) and the Executive’s employment had been
terminated pursuant to a “Qualifying Termination” (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement)
as of immediately following the Merger, which shall vest and no longer be subject to restriction in
equal annual installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the Effective
Date, subject to the Executive’s continued employment through such date (the “Restricted Shares”).
The grant of Restricted Shares shall be in lieu of the Executive receiving any amount to which the
Executive would be entitled under Section 3(b) of the Change of Control Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Restricted Shares shall vest in full and no longer be subject to forfeiture if,
on or prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, the Executive’s employment with the
Company is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined below), by reason of the Executive’s
death or Disability (as defined below) or by the Executive for Good Reason (as defined below). The
number of Restricted Shares to be provided hereunder shall be determined by dividing (A) the amount
determined under the second sentence of this paragraph by (B) the product of (1) price of a share
of Radian common stock immediately prior to the Effective Time and (2) the Exchange Ratio (as
defined in the Merger Agreement). Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the terms of the
Restricted Shares shall be consistent with the terms of the Company’s equity incentive plan and
award agreements thereunder provided to senior executives of the Company, provided that in no event
shall any restrictive covenants contained in such plan or award agreements be applicable to the
Executive. In addition, following the Effective Date, the Executive shall be eligible for a
special integration bonus based on the success of the integration of the business of Radian with
the business of the Company.

          (ii) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall receive an annual
base salary (“Annual Base Salary”) at a rate of not less than $450,000 payable in accordance with
the Company’s normal payroll policies. The Executive’s Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed for
increase at least annually by the Board pursuant to its normal performance review policies for
senior executives. Annual Base Salary shall not be reduced after any increase and the term Annual
Base Salary as utilized in this Agreement shall refer to Annual Base Salary as so increased.

          (iii) Annual Bonus. With respect to each fiscal year ending during the Employment
Period, the Executive shall receive an annual bonus (“Annual Bonus”) as

2

 

determined by the
Compensation Committee of the Board on terms and conditions no less
favorable than those applicable to other senior executives of the Company, except that for the
first fiscal year that ends in the Initial Period the amount required by the preceding provision of
this clause (iii) shall be reduced by the amount of any bonus paid by Romeo on account of
performance in such year (or portion thereof). It is understood that the term “bonus” as used in
the immediately preceding sentence excludes long-term equity incentives of the type described in
the “Compensation and Human Resources Committee Report on Executive Compensation” contained in
Romeo’s proxy statement for its 2006 annual meeting of shareholders. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event shall the Executive’s target bonus as a percentage of the Annual Base Salary
be less than the Executive’s target bonus as a percentage of the Executive’s annual base salary as
of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

          (iv) Equity-Based Grants and Other Long Term Incentives. With respect to each fiscal
year during the Employment Period, the Executive’s equity-based awards and other long-term
incentives shall be commensurate with the Executive’s position and on terms and conditions no less
favorable than those applicable to the awards and incentives granted to other senior executives of
the Company.

          (v) Retirement Benefits; General Credited Service. During the Employment Period, the
Executive shall be entitled to participate in all savings and retirement plans that are
tax-qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”),
and in all plans that are supplemental to any such tax-qualified plans, in each case, as are
applicable to senior executives of the Company generally (it being understood that for a short
transition period following the Effective Date the Executive may continue to participate in the
plans in which the Executive participated in immediately prior to the Effective Time). All service
with Radian and its affiliates (and their respective predecessors) credited to the Executive under
any compensation and benefit plans, programs, policies, agreements and arrangements of Radian and
its affiliates shall be provided to the Executive for purposes of any corresponding compensation
and benefit plans, programs, policies, agreements and arrangements of the Company and its
affiliates, except as would result in a duplication of benefits.

          (vi) Other Employee Benefit Plans. During the Employment Period, the Executive and/or
the Executive’s family, as the case may be, shall be eligible for participation in and shall
receive all benefits under all welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by
the Company (including, without limitation, medical, prescription, dental, vision, disability,
salary continuance, group life and supplemental group life, accidental death, travel accident
insurance, sick leave and vacation plans, practices, policies and programs), on the same basis as
such plans, practices, policies and programs are applicable or made available to the senior
executives of the Company generally (it being understood that for a short transition period
following the Effective Date the Executive may continue to participate in the plans in which the
Executive participated in immediately prior to the Effective Time). During the Employment Period,
the Executive shall be eligible for participation in fringe benefits and perquisite plans,
practices, policies and programs (including, without limitation, expense reimbursement plans,
practices, policies and programs) no less favorable than those applicable or made available to
senior executives of the Company generally.

3

 

     4. Termination of Employment. (a) Death or Disability. The Executive’s
employment shall terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death during the Employment
Period. If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of the Executive has
occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below),
it may provide the Executive with written notice in accordance with Section 10(b) of this Agreement
of its intention to terminate the Executive’s employment. In such event, the Executive’s
employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice
by the Executive (the “Disability Effective Date”), provided that, within the 30 days after
such receipt, the Executive shall not have returned to full-time performance of the Executive’s
duties. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the absence of the Executive from
the Executive’s duties with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive business days as a
result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness which is determined to be total and
permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Executive or
the Executive’s legal representative.

     (b) Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment during the Employment
Period either with or without Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

          (i) the Executive is convicted of, or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to a charge of
commission of, a felony; or

          (ii) the Executive has engaged in willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct in
carrying out his duties, which results in material economic harm to the Company or in reputational
harm causing quantifiable material injury to the Company.

For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act, on the part of the Executive, shall be
considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or
without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the
Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly
adopted by the Board or upon the instructions of the Chief Executive Officer or the President of
the Mortgage Insurance Business of the Company or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company
shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith
and in the best interests of the Company. The cessation of employment of the Executive shall not
be deemed to be for Cause unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy
of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds of the entire
membership of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after
reasonable notice is provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an opportunity, together
with counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board,
the Executive is guilty of the conduct described in clause (ii) above, and specifying the
particulars thereof in detail.

     (c) Good Reason. The Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Executive with
Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean in the absence of a written
consent of the Executive:

4

 

          (i) the assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent with the Executive’s position
(including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties or
responsibilities as contemplated by Section 3(a) of this Agreement, or any other action
by the Company which results in a diminution in such position, authority, duties or
responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial or inadvertent action not
taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company within 30 days after receipt of notice
thereof given by the Executive;

          (ii) any failure by the Company to comply with any of the provisions of Section 3(b) of this
Agreement, other than an isolated, insubstantial or inadvertent failure not occurring in bad faith
and which is remedied by the Company within 30 days after receipt of notice thereof given by the
Executive;

          (iii) any requirement by the Company that the Executive’s services be rendered primarily at a
location or locations other than the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania metropolitan area other than travel
reasonably required to carry out the Executive’s obligations under this Agreement; or

          (iv) any failure by the Company to comply with Section 9(c) of this Agreement unless
compliance with such Section is effected within three business days after notice of such failure is
given to the Company and giving effect to such delayed compliance, the rights of the Executive are
not prejudiced compared to what the Executive’s rights would have been had such compliance occurred
at the time required by Section 9(c).

     (d) Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company for Cause, or by the
Executive for Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto
given in accordance with Section 10(b) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a
“Notice of Termination” means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination
provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable
detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s
employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below)
is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall
be not more than 30 days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Executive or the
Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a
showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the Company,
respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such
fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder.

     (e) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” means (i) if the Executive’s
employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive with or without Good Reason,
the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein within 30 days
of such notice, as the case may be, (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company
other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the Company
notifies the Executive of such termination and (iii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by
reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date of death of the Executive
or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.

5

 

     (f) Resignation. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, the
Executive agrees to resign, as of the Date of Termination, to the extent applicable,
from any positions that the Executive holds with the Company and its affiliated companies
(including any joint ventures), the Board (and any committees thereof) and the Board of Directors
(and any committees thereof) of any of the affiliated companies.

     5. Obligations of the Company upon Termination. (a) Good Reason; Other Than for
Cause, Death or Disability. If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the
Executive’s employment other than for Cause, death or Disability or the Executive shall terminate
employment for Good Reason:

          (i) the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date
of Termination (but in no event prior to the expiration of the revocation period contained in the
release described in this Section 5(a)) the aggregate of the following amounts:

     A. the sum of (1) the Executive’s accrued Annual Base Salary and any accrued
vacation pay through the Date of Termination, (2) the Executive’s business expenses
that have not been reimbursed by the Company as of the Date of Termination that were
incurred by the Executive prior to the Date of Termination in accordance with the
applicable Company policy, and (3) the Executive’s Annual Bonus earned for the
fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination
occurs if such bonus has been determined but not paid as of the Date of Termination
(the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1) through (3), shall be hereinafter
referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”); and

     B. the product of (1) the sum of (x) the Annual Base Salary and (y) the highest
annual bonus paid or payable to the Executive for any of the three fiscal years
prior to the Date of Termination (but not including any bonus paid or payable in
respect of his employment by any employer prior to Radian) and (2) a fraction, the
numerator of which is equal to the greater of (i) the number of months from the Date
of Termination until the third anniversary of the Effective Date and (ii) 24 and the
denominator of which is 12 (such fraction, the “Severance Period”); and

          (ii) any equity-based awards granted to the Executive, including the Restricted Shares, shall
vest and become free of restrictions immediately and all restrictive covenants in any plans or
agreements governing such equity-based compensation awards shall be of no further force and effect
(the “Equity Benefits”); and

          (iii) for a number of years and portions thereof equal to the Severance Period, subject to the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code (the “Benefit Continuation Period”), the Company shall
continue to provide medical and dental benefits to the Executive and his eligible dependents as if
the Executive remained an active employee of the Company, and the Executive and his eligible
dependents shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s post-retirement welfare benefit
programs in effect for senior executives of the Company. The

6

 

Executive’s entitlement to COBRA
continuation coverage under Section 4980B of the Code (“COBRA Coverage”) shall not be offset by the
provision of benefits under this Section 5(a)(iii)
and the period of COBRA Coverage shall commence at the end of the Benefit Continuation Period
(the benefits set forth in this Section 5(a)(iii), collectively “Medical Benefits”); and

          (iv) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide
to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the
Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or
agreement of the Company and its affiliated companies through the Date of Termination, except for
any amounts and benefits in the nature of severance, which shall be excluded (such other amounts
and benefits that are required to be provided under the preceding provisions of this sentence shall
be hereinafter referred to as the “Other Benefits”). As used in this Agreement, the term
“affiliated companies” shall include any company controlled by, controlling or under common control
with the Company.

In the event of the Executive’s termination during the Employment Period by the Company other than
for Cause or Disability or by the Executive for Good Reason, each of the Executive and the Company
agree to execute a mutual general release in favor of the other party, substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A. The payments and provision of benefits to the Executive
required by this Section 5(a) (other than the Accrued Obligations and Other Benefits) shall be
conditioned upon the Executive’s delivery (and non-revocation prior to the expiration of the
revocation period contained in the release) of such release in favor of the Company, subject to the
Company’s delivery to the Executive of such release in favor of the Executive. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 5(a), to the extent required in order to comply with Section
409A of the Code or regulations thereunder, cash amounts that would otherwise be payable under this
Section 5(a) during the six-month period immediately following the Date of Termination shall
instead be paid, with interest on any delayed payment at the applicable federal rate provided for
in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code (“Interest”), on the first business day after the date that is
six months following the Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A
of the Code.

     (b) Death. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s
death during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to
the Executive’s legal representatives under this Agreement, other than for (1) payment of Accrued
Obligations, (2) the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits and (3) payment of the product
of (x) the highest annual bonus paid or payable to the Executive for any of the three fiscal years
prior to such termination (but not including any bonus paid or payable in respect of his employment
by any employer prior to Radian) and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
elapsed in the fiscal year in which such termination occurs through the Date of Termination, and
the denominator of which is 365 (the “Prorata Bonus”). In addition, the Executive shall receive
the Equity Benefits. Accrued Obligations and the Prorata Bonus shall be paid to the Executive’s
estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of
Termination. With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as utilized
in this Section 5(b) shall include death benefits for which the Company pays as in effect on the
date of the Executive’s death and the continued provision of the Medical Benefits.

7

 

     (c) Disability. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company by reason
of the Executive’s Disability during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall
terminate without further obligations to the Executive, other than for (1) payment of Accrued
Obligations, (2) the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits and (3) payment of the Prorata
Bonus. In addition, the Executive shall receive the Equity Benefits. Accrued Obligations and the
Prorata Bonus shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of
Termination, provided, that to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A of
the Code, amounts and benefits to be paid or provided under this Section 5(c) shall be paid, with
Interest, or provided to the Executive on the first business day after the date that is six months
following the Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.
With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as utilized in this
Section 5(c) shall include, and the Executive shall be entitled after the Disability Effective Date
to receive, disability and other benefits as in effect at any time thereafter generally with
respect to senior executives of the Company generally and the continued provision of Medical
Benefits.

     (d) Cause; Other than for Good Reason. If the Executive’s employment shall be
terminated by the Company for Cause or the Executive terminates his employment without Good Reason
during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the
Executive other than the obligation to pay to the Executive (i) the Accrued Obligations through the
Date of Termination and (ii) Other Benefits, in each case to the extent theretofore unpaid.
Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date
of Termination, provided, that to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A
of the Code, amounts and benefits to be paid or provided under this Section 5(d) shall be paid or
provided to the Executive on the first business day after the date that is six months following the
Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

     6. Full Settlement. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in
this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any
set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may
have against the Executive or others. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other
employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive
under any of the provisions of this Agreement and, such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not
the Executive obtains other employment. The Company agrees to pay as incurred, to the full extent
permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses which the Executive may reasonably incur as a result
of any contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company, the Executive or others of the
validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee
of performance thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Executive about the amount of
any payment pursuant to this Agreement), with Interest on any delayed payment.

     7. Certain Additional Payments by the Company. (a) Anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution by
the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or
distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard
to any additional payments required under this Section 7) (a “Payment”) would be

8

 

subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by the
Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such
interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then
the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an
amount such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties
imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any
interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up
Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed
upon the Payments.

     (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 7(c) of this Agreement, all determinations required
to be made under this Section 7, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the
amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such
determination, shall be made by Deloitte & Touche LLP or such other nationally recognized certified
public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Executive as may be designated by the Company
(the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company
and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Executive that there
has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. All fees and expenses of
the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined
pursuant to this Section 7, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive or directly to the
Internal Revenue Service, in the sole discretion of the Company, within five business days of the
later of (i) the due date for the payment of any Excise Tax, and (ii) the receipt of the Accounting
Firm’s determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company
and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code
at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that
Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made
(“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event
that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 7(c) of this Agreement and the Executive
thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the
amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by
the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive.

     (c) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue
Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment.
Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after
the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of
such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The Executive shall not pay
such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which it gives such
notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with
respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the
expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall:

          (i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such
claim,

9

 

          (ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably
request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation,
accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected
by the Company,

          (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim, and

          (iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;

“provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and
expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and
shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or
income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such
representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions
of this Section 7(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such
contest, and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals,
proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may,
at its sole option, either pay the tax claimed to the appropriate taxing authority on behalf of the
Executive and direct the Executive to sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible
manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any
administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as
the Company shall determine; provided, however, that, if the Company pays such
claim and directs the Executive to sue for a refund, the Company shall indemnify and hold the
Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or
penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such payment or with respect to any imputed
income in connection with such payment; and provided, further, that any extension
of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive
with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such
contested amount. Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues
with respect to which the Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder, and the Executive shall be
entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue
Service or any other taxing authority.

     (d) If, after the receipt by the Executive of a payment by the Company of an amount on the
Executive’s behalf pursuant to Section 7(c) of this Agreement, the Executive becomes entitled to
receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s
complying with the requirements of Section 7(c) of this Agreement) promptly pay to the Company the
amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable
thereto). If, after payment by the Company of an amount on the Executive’s behalf pursuant to
Section 7(c) of this Agreement, a determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to
any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of
its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of 30 days after such
determination, then the amount of such payment shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of
Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

10

 

     8. Restrictive Covenants.

     (a) Non-Competition. During the Employment Period, and for the 12 month period
beginning on the date the Executive’s employment terminates, for any reason, other than in the case
of the expiration of this Agreement at the end of the Employment Period (the “Restriction Period”),
the Executive hereby agrees that he will not, without the Company’s express written consent, engage
in (directly or indirectly), in any capacity in which Proprietary Information of the Company would
reasonably be considered useful, any employment or business activity whose primary business
involves or relates to providing mortgage insurance or financial guaranty to financial
institutions located anywhere in the United States of America and or in any country of the World in
which the Company provided mortgage insurance or financial guaranty to financial institutions, or
actively attempted to do so, within 12 months prior to the date the Executive’s employment
terminates, or would otherwise conflict with the Executive’s employment by the Company (“Competing
Employer”).

     (b) Non-Solicitation of Certain Company Personnel. During the Employment Period and
for the Restriction Period, the Executive hereby agrees that he will not, either directly or
through others, solicit or attempt to solicit any then-current employee, consultant or independent
contractor of the Company in regards to whom, in the 12 months preceding termination of the
Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive provided direct supervision or in regards to
whom the Executive received Proprietary Information, to change or terminate his or her relationship
with the Company or otherwise to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to, for
or of any other person or business entity, unless more than twelve months shall have elapsed
between the last day of such person’s employment or service with the Company and the first date of
such solicitation or attempt to solicit. If any employee, consultant or independent contractor in
regards to whom, in the 12 months preceding termination of the Executive’s employment with the
Company, the Executive provided direct supervision or received Proprietary Information, is
solicited by any entity that has at that time hired or agreed to hire the Executive, to work
directly or indirectly under the supervision of or in any way in concert with the Executive, such
solicitation shall be conclusively presumed to be a violation of this Section 8(b).

     (c) Non-Solicitation of Certain Customers. During the Employment Period and for the
Restriction Period, the Executive hereby agrees that he will not, either directly or through
others, solicit, divert or appropriate, or attempt to solicit, divert or appropriate any customer
or actively sought prospective customer of the Company in regards to whom or which the Executive
received any Proprietary Information, for the purpose of providing such customer or actively sought
prospective customer with services or products competitive with those offered by the Company during
the Employment Period.

     (d) Proprietary Information. During the Employment Period and for the Restriction
Period, the Executive will hold in strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, lecture upon or
publish any of the Company’s Proprietary Information (defined below) under any circumstances
reasonably likely to enable use of such information in competition with the Company anywhere in the
United States or in any country of the World in which the Company provided mortgage insurance or
financial guaranty to financial institutions, or actively attempted to do so, within 12 months
prior to the date the Executive’s employment terminates, except as

11

 

such disclosure, use or
publication may be required in connection with the Executive’s work for the Company, or unless the
Company expressly authorizes such disclosure in writing or it is
required by law or in a judicial or administrative proceeding in which event the Executive
shall promptly notify the Company of the required disclosure and assist the Company if it
determines to resist the disclosure. “Proprietary Information” shall mean any and all confidential
and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information of the Company, its affiliated entities
(including joint ventures), any of its portfolio companies, investors, and partners, including but
not limited to information relating to financial matters, investments, budgets, business plans,
marketing plans, personnel matters, business contacts, products, processes, know-how, designs,
methods, improvements, discoveries, inventions, ideas, data, programs, and other works of
authorship.

     (e) Invention Assignment. The Executive agrees that all inventions, innovations,
improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, reports, and all similar or related
information which relates to the Company’s actual or anticipated business, research and development
or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive
while employed by the Company (“Work Product”) belong to the Company. The Executive will promptly
disclose such Work Product to the Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board
(whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including,
without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorneys and other instruments).

     (f) Return of Company Property. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment
with the Company for any reason whatsoever, voluntarily or involuntarily, and at any earlier time
the Company requests, the Executive will deliver to the person designated by the Company all
originals and copies of all documents and property of the Company in the Executive’s possession,
under the Executive’s control or to which the Executive may have access. The Executive will not
reproduce or appropriate for the Executive’s own use, or for the use of others, any property,
Proprietary Information or Company Inventions.

     (g) Acknowledgement. The Executive acknowledges that the Company would be irreparably
injured by a violation of this Section 8 and the Executive agrees that the Company, in addition to
any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, shall be entitled, without
posting a bond, to a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, or other equivalent
relief, restraining the Executive from any actual or threatened breach of this Section 8.

     9. Successors. (a) This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior
written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal representatives, heirs or
legatees.

     (b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its
successors and assigns.

     (c) The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same

12

 

manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As
used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which
assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.

     10. Miscellaneous. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin, without reference to principles of conflict of
laws. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force
or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement
executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

     (b) All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by
hand delivery to the other party or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested,
postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

	 	 	 
	If to the Executive:

	 	At the most recent address

on file at the Company.
	 
	 	 
	If to the Company:

	 	Attention: General Counsel

or to such other address as either party shall have furnished to the other in writing in accordance
herewith. Notice and communications shall be effective when actually received by the addressee.

     (b) The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

     (c) The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such Federal,
state, local or foreign taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or
regulation.

     (d) The Executive’s or the Company’s failure to insist upon strict compliance with any
provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right the Executive or the Company may
have hereunder, including, without limitation, the right of the Executive to terminate employment
for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(c)(i)-(iv) of this Agreement, shall not be deemed to be a
waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.

     (e) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, from and after the Effective Date, this
Agreement shall supersede any other employment, severance or change of control agreement between
the parties and between the Executive and Radian, with respect to the subject matter hereof
(including without limitation, the Change of Control Agreement). Any provision of this Agreement
that by its terms continues after the expiration of the Employment

13

 

Period or the termination of the
Executive’s employment shall survive in accordance with its terms.

     (f) If any compensation or benefits provided by this Agreement may result in the application
of Section 409A of the Code, the Company shall, in consultation with the Executive, modify the
Agreement in the least restrictive manner necessary in order to exclude such compensation from the
definition of “deferred compensation” within the meaning of such Section 409A of the Code or in
order to comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, other applicable provision(s) of
the Code and/or any rules, regulations or other regulatory guidance issued under such statutory
provisions and without any diminution in the value of the payments to the Executive.

Exhibit A

Release

  For and in consideration of the payments and other benefits described in the employment
agreement dated as of [ ] (the “Agreement”) between [ ] (the “Company”) and
[ ] (the “Executive”) and for other good and valuable consideration, Executive hereby
releases the Company, its divisions, affiliates, subsidiaries, parents, branches, predecessors,
successors, assigns, officers, directors, trustees, employees, agents, shareholders,
administrators, representatives, attorneys, insurers and fiduciaries, past, present and future (the
“Released Parties”) from any and all claims of any kind arising out of, or related to, his
employment with the Company, its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, with the Company, the
“Affiliated Entities”), his separation from employment with the Affiliated Entities or
derivative of Executive’s employment, which Executive now has or may have against the Released
Parties, whether known or unknown to Executive, by reason of facts which have occurred on or prior
to the date that Executive has signed this Release. Such released claims include, without
limitation, any and all claims under federal, state or local laws pertaining to employment,
including, without limitation, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Title VII of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 2000e et. seq., the Fair Labor Standards
Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. Section 201 et. seq., the Americans with Disabilities Act, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 12101 et. seq. the Reconstruction Era Civil Rights Act, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. Section 1981 et. seq., the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 29
U.S.C. Section 701 et. seq., the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1992, 29 U.S.C. Section
2601 et. seq., and any and all state or local laws regarding employment discrimination
and/or federal, state or local laws of any type or description regarding employment, including but
not limited to any claims arising from or derivative of Executive’s employment with the Affiliated
Entities, as well as any and all claims under state contract or tort law.

  Executive has read this Release carefully, acknowledges that Executive has been given at least
21 days to consider all of its terms and has been advised to consult with any attorney and any
other advisors of Executive’s choice prior to executing this Release, and Executive fully
understands that by signing below Executive is voluntarily giving up any right which Executive may
have to sue or bring any other claims against the Released Parties, including any rights and claims
under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. Executive also understands that Executive has a
period of seven days after signing this Release within which to revoke his agreement, and that
neither the Company nor any other person is obligated to make any payments or provide any other
benefits to Executive pursuant to the Agreement until eight days have passed since Executive’s
signing of this Release without Executive’s signature having been revoked, other than the Accrued
Obligations and the Other Benefits (in each case, as defined in the Agreement). Finally, Executive
has not been forced or pressured in any manner whatsoever to sign this Release, and Executive
agrees to all of its terms voluntarily.

 

 

     For and in consideration of the obligations upon Executive as set forth in the Agreement, and
for other good and valuable consideration, the Company hereby (on its own behalf and that of the
other Affiliated Entities, the divisions and predecessors and successors of the Affiliated Entities
and the directors and officers of the Company in their capacity as such (collectively, the
“Releasing Entities”)) releases Executive and his heirs, executors, successors and assigns
(the “Executive Released Parties”) of and from all debts, obligations, promises, covenants,
collective bargaining obligations, agreements, contracts, endorsements, bonds, controversies,
suits, claims or causes of every kind and nature whatsoever, arising out of, or related to, his
employment with the Affiliated Entities, his separation from employment with the Affiliated
Entities or derivative of Executive’s employment, which the Releasing Entities now have or may have
against the Executive Released Parties, whether known or unknown, by reason of facts which have
occurred on or prior to the date that the Company has signed this Release; provided,
however, that nothing contained in this Release shall release the Executive Released
Parties from any claim or form of liability arising out of acts or omissions by Executive which
