Dear Sirs

	1.	 	Committed letter of credit facility
	 
	 	 	Further to recent discussions, Citibank Europe plc (“CEP”) is pleased to confirm its
committed letter of credit issuance facility (the “Facility”) subject to the terms and
conditions set out in this Letter.
	 
	2.	 	Amount
	 
	 	 	The Facility shall be in a maximum aggregate amount of USD 100,000,000 (the “Facility
Limit”) and shall be made available jointly to Platinum Bermuda and Platinum America (each a
“Company” and together the “Companies”). All or any part of the Facility shall be available
to either Company save that a utilisation by one Company shall reduce the remaining
availability for itself and the other Company. The aggregate of all utilisations made by
the Companies under the Facility shall not exceed the Facility Limit. No Credit will be
issued under the Facility after 31 December 2013 (the “Availability End Date”) and no Credit
will be issued under the Facility unless it is expressed to expire no later than 31 December
2014 (the “Facility Expiry Date”).
	 
	3.	 	Facility Documents
	 
	 	 	Each Company shall enter into the following documents in relation to the Facility:

 

 

	 	(a)	 	a pledge agreement (a “Pledge Agreement”) granted by the Company in favour of
CEP in relation to certain securities and custody account or accounts owned and held by
the Company;
	 
	 	(b)	 	a control agreement (a “Account Control Agreement”) between the Company, CEP
and State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Custodian”) in relation to (a) above;
	 
	 	(c)	 	a corporate mandate (a “Corporate Mandate”); and
	 
	 	(d)	 	a general communications indemnity (a “General Communications Indemnity”)
granted by the Company in favour of CEP.

	 	 	The Companies together shall enter into the following documents in relation to the Facility:

	 	(e)	 	an insurance letters of credit — master agreement (Form 3/CEP) (the “Master
Agreement”) between the Companies and CEP; and
	 
	 	(f)	 	a fee letter (the “Fee Letter”) between the Companies and CEP.

	 	 	In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Letter and the terms of any
Facility Document, the terms of this Letter shall prevail to the extent of the
inconsistency.
	 
	4.	 	Conditions precedent
	 
	 	 	A Company shall not request the issue of any Credit until CEP has received the documents and
other evidence specified below in a form and substance satisfactory to CEP (each a
“Condition Precedent”):

	 	(a)	 	the enclosed duplicate of this Letter, duly executed on behalf of each
Specified Company before 4pm on the 14th day after the date of this Letter;
	 
	 	(b)	 	each other Facility Document to which that Company is a party, together with
any document to be delivered under each such Facility Document, duly executed on behalf
of that Company;
	 
	 	(c)	 	evidence that all registrations, filings and other steps necessary (other than
any specifically referred to as conditions subsequent) to perfect any security interest
created over that Company’s assets pursuant to the Facility Documents have been
fulfilled;
	 
	 	(d)	 	certified copies of the constitutional documents of that Company;
	 
	 	(e)	 	the most recent 10Q filing in respect of the Group;
	 
	 	(f)	 	a legal opinion in relation to that Company (which for Platinum Bermuda is a
legal opinion issued by CEP’s Bermudan counsel and for Platinum America is a legal
opinion issued by Platinum America’s Maryland counsel) in a form and substance
satisfactory to CEP; and
	 
	 	(g)	 	such other documents and other evidence as CEP may reasonably require prior to
the date of issuance of the first Credit for that Company.
	 
	 	 	 	To avoid doubt, the parties to this Letter accept that (i) the conditions precedent in
relation to one Company may be satisfied and a Credit issued on behalf of that Company
before the conditions precedent are satisfied for the other Company, or that the
conditions precedent for the other Company may never be satisfied; and (ii) once the
conditions precedent in relation to one Company are satisfied that Company may request
the issue of a Credit and

- 2 -

 

	 	 	 	may request subsequent Credits without having to satisfy any of the Conditions
Precedent again.

	5.	 	Utilisation requests
	 
	5.1	 	Whenever a Company wishes CEP to issue a Credit under the Facility, it shall give a duly
completed application form in accordance with the Master Agreement.
	 
	5.2	 	CEP shall be entitled to examine each request to issue a Credit on a case-by-case basis and,
notwithstanding clause 1.1(i) of the Master Agreement or clause 5 of each General
Communications Indemnity, during the continuance of this Letter, shall only be entitled to
decline any such request without liability where:

	 	(a)	 	such request would cause CEP to be in breach of any law of any jurisdiction
(including without limitation any breach of sanctions imposed by the law of the United
States of America); or
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Credit requested is in a currency which is not an Approved Currency;
	 
	 	(c)	 	upon the issuance of the requested Credit the provision of paragraph 2 would
not be complied with;
	 
	 	(d)	 	the request was received by CEP after the date falling five (5) days before
(but not counting) the Availability End Date;
	 
	 	(e)	 	the Company making the request fails to deposit in an account with the
Custodian cash and/or securities in an amount and otherwise in accordance with the
requirements of that Company’s Pledge Agreement;
	 
	 	(f)	 	the Company making the request is in breach (unless such breach is capable of
remedy and has been remedied to the satisfaction of CEP) of any provision of any
Facility Document; and/or
	 
	 	(g)	 	any of the representations or warranties set out in paragraph 9 or in clause 2
(Representations and Warranties) of the Master Agreement is not true in all material
respects in relation to the Company making the request.

	5.3	 	Subject to paragraph 5.2, CEP shall comply with a request for a Credit in accordance with the
requirements of a duly completed application form delivered pursuant to paragraph 5.1.
	 
	6.	 	Interest
	 
	6.1	 	Without prejudice to any obligation of a Company to reimburse (immediately or otherwise) CEP
any sum paid by CEP to a Beneficiary under a Credit issued on behalf of that Company, that
Company shall pay interest on the amount drawn by that Beneficiary under that Credit for the
period on and from the date of such drawing until reimbursement by that Company at a rate per
annum of (a) LIBOR (or if LIBOR is unavailable, CEP’s equivalent overnight borrowing rate)
plus (b) 1% plus (c) Citigroup Inc.’s 5-year credit default swap spread.
	 
	6.2	 	Any interest accruing under this paragraph 6 shall be immediately payable by the relevant
Company on demand by CEP. Such interest shall be compounded in accordance with the usual
practice of CEP.
	 
	6.3	 	Interest due from either Company under this Letter shall:

- 3 -

 

	 	(a)	 	be calculated and accrue from day to day;
	 
	 	(b)	 	be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360 day
year (or such other day count convention as is market practice for the relevant
currency); and
	 
	 	(c)	 	be payable both before and after judgment.

	7.	 	Fees
	 
	 	 	The fees that each Company is obliged to pay to CEP in connection with the Facility are as
set out in the Fee Letter.
	 
	8.	 	Repayment and expiry
	 
	 	 	The provisions of paragraph 2 shall apply. CEP and the Companies may commence negotiations,
without being under any obligation, on the renewal of the Facility no earlier than 90 days,
and no later than 60 days, before the Availability End Date.
	 
	9.	 	Representations and Warranties
	 
	9.1	 	Each Company represents and warrants to CEP, on the date of its acceptance of this Letter and
on each day it signs an Application Form in accordance with the Master Agreement (by reference
to the facts and circumstances then existing) until this Letter has expired or terminated,
that:

	 	(a)	 	it (i) is duly organised, validly existing and (to the extent applicable) in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organisation, (ii)
has the requisite corporate power and authority and the right to own and operate its
properties, to lease the property it operates under lease, and to conduct its business
as now and proposed to be conducted, and (iii) has obtained all material licenses,
permits, consents or approvals from or by, and has made all filings with, and given all
notices to, all governmental authorities having jurisdiction, to the extent required
for such ownership, operation and conduct (including, without limitation, the
consummation of transactions contemplated by this Letter and the other Facility
Documents) as to each of the foregoing, except where the failure to do so would not
have a material adverse effect on (a) the financial condition of the Group or (b) such
Company’s ability to satisfy any of its obligations under any Facility Document;
	 
	 	(b)	 	the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Letter and any other
Facility Document to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, are within its corporate powers, have been duly authorised by all
necessary corporate action, and do not contravene (i) its constitutional documents;
(ii) any law; or (iii) any contractual restriction binding on or affecting it except,
in the case of this paragraph (iii), where such contravention would not have a material
adverse effect on (a) the financial condition of the Group or (b) such Company’s
ability to satisfy any of its obligations under any Facility Document;
	 
	 	(c)	 	no authorisation or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing
with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any third party is required for
the due execution, delivery and performance by it of this Letter, any other Facility
Document to which it is a party or in respect of any Credit issued on its behalf,
except for those authorisations, approvals, actions, notices and filings that have been
duly obtained, taken, given or made and are in full force and effect; and

- 4 -

 

	 	(d)	 	this Letter and each other Facility Document to which it is a party have been
duly executed and delivered by it and constitute the legal, valid and binding
obligation of it enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms,
subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganisation,
moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) the effect of
general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered
in a proceeding in equity or law).

	9.2	 	Platinum Holdings represents and warrants to CEP, on the date of its acceptance of this
Letter and on each day a Company signs an Application Form in accordance with the Master
Agreement (by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing) until this Letter has
expired or terminated, that:

	 	(a)	 	The consolidated financial statements included in the quarterly report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) by Platinum Holdings, copies of which have been furnished to
CEP, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
the U.S. (subject to the absence of notes required by such accounting principles and to
normal year-end adjustments) and present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Group and the results of its operations as of the dates and
for the periods indicated. Since March 31, 2011, there has been no material adverse
change to the financial condition of the Group, provided that, so long as the aggregate
losses recognized by the Group under the terms of catastrophe bonds, reinsurance
arrangements and other similar arrangements in any fiscal quarter do not exceed 10
percent of shareholders’ equity less accumulated other comprehensive income or
accumulated other comprehensive loss as of the end of such quarter as set forth in the
consolidated balance sheet of the Group included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q
for such quarter, the occurrence of such losses shall not be deemed to cause such a
material adverse change.
	 
	 	(b)	 	There is no pending or, to its knowledge, threatened action, suit,
investigation, litigation or proceeding affecting any member of the Group before any
court, governmental agency or arbitrator that would be reasonably likely to (i) have a
material adverse effect on the financial position of the Group or (ii) affect the
legality, validity or enforceability of this Letter or any Facility Document or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

	9.3	 	Each Company represents and warrants to CEP, on the date of its acceptance of
this Letter, that it has an A.M. Best Rating of A- (or equivalent) or better.
	 
	10.	 	Undertakings
	 
	 	 	Each Company undertakes to CEP that it shall:

	 	(a)	 	ensure that CEP receives each annual report on Form 10-K filed by Platinum
Holdings with the SEC as soon as it is available and in any event within 90 days of its
financial year end;
	 
	 	(b)	 	ensure that CEP receives each quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed by Platinum
Holdings with the SEC as soon as it is available and in any event within 45 days of the
end of the relevant quarter;
	 
	 	(c)	 	if at any time that Company’s A.M. Best Rating drops below A- or equivalent,
ensure that, upon being instructed to do so by CEP, the Collateral (as defined in that
Company’s Pledge Agreement) is moved to accounts with Citibank, N.A. and otherwise
comply with the terms of Section 4(b) of each Pledge Agreement with Citibank, N.A.
acting as replacement custodian;
	 
	 	(d)	 	ensure that CEP receives, no later than five Business Days after each Quarter
Date (as defined in the Fee Letter), a certificate signed by an officer of Platinum
Holdings confirming each Company’s A.M. Best Rating as at that Quarter Date; and

- 5 -

 

	 	(e)	 	promptly upon, but in any event no later than two Business Days after, such
Company’s A.M. Best Rating being upgraded or downgraded at any time, notify CEP in
writing.

	11.	 	Costs and Expenses
	 
	 	 	Each Company undertakes to indemnify CEP, on demand, for and against all actions,
proceedings, losses, damages, charges, costs, expenses, claims and demands which are
documented and reasonable (together referred to as “Indemnified Losses”) which CEP may
incur, pay or sustain (except to the extent arising as a result of CEP’s own bad faith,
gross negligence or wilful misconduct or that of the issuing bank or institution issuing the
Credit) in connection with any Facility Document to which that Company is a party, the
Facility or any Credit issued on that Company’s behalf under the Facility (including
non-exclusively the cost of all registrations and any other legal fees that CEP incurs in
relation to the Facility). If in relation to an Indemnified Loss it is possible to
determine that one Company was wholly responsible for causing that Indemnified Loss, that
Company shall indemnify CEP in full for that Indemnified Loss and that Indemnified Loss
shall fall outside the other Company’s indemnity. In all other cases, the Companies shall
be jointly and severally liable for the Indemnified Loss.
	 
	12.	 	Certificates
	 
	 	 	Any demand, notification or certificate issued by CEP specifying any amount due under this
Letter or any Facility Document or any determination of any ratio shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive and binding on each Company.
	 
	13.	 	Miscellaneous
	 
	13.1	 	Any breach of the provisions of this Letter by a Company shall constitute an Event of Default
under (and as defined in) that Company’s Pledge Agreement (and any breach of the provisions of
this Letter by Platinum Holdings shall constitute an Event of Default under (and as defined
in) each Pledge Agreement) provided, where such breach is capable of remedy, such breach
continues unremedied for five (5) Business Days after (a) such Company becomes aware of the
breach or (b) being notified by CEP of such breach.
	 
	13.2	 	The rights of CEP under this Letter and the Facility Documents may be exercised as often as
necessary; are cumulative and not exclusive of its rights under the general law; and may be
waived only in writing and specifically. Delay in exercising or non-exercise of any such right
is not a waiver of that right.
	 
	13.3	 	If any provision of this Letter or any Facility Document is or becomes illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that shall not affect (i) the legality, validity or
enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of that document; or (ii) the
legality, validity or enforceability in any other jurisdiction of that or any other provision
of that document.
	 
	13.4	 	In no event shall CEP be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages and each Company hereby waives, releases and agrees (for
itself and on behalf of the other members of the Group) not to sue upon any such claim for any
such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its or
their favour.
	 
	13.5	 	Without prejudice to any rights of set-off which may be available to CEP as a matter law,
contract or otherwise, CEP may set off any obligation of either Company under the Facility
Documents or in respect of any Credit issued or established on behalf that Company which is
due and payable to CEP against any obligation owed by CEP or Citibank, N.A. to that
Company (including without

- 6 -

 

	 	 	limitation in relation to any account held by that Company with CEP), regardless of the
place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are
in different currencies, CEP may convert either obligation using the CEP’s spot rate of
exchange prevailing for the relevant currencies in the London foreign exchange market at or
about 11am on the date of conversion for the purpose of the set-off. Citibank, N.A. may
rely upon and enforce this paragraph 13.5, save that Citibank, N.A. shall not be entitled to
exercise the foregoing right of set-off in relation to any account held by a Company with
Citibank, N.A. (excluding any account held with Citibank N.A. over which a security interest
is granted to CEP).
	 
	13.6	 	Clause 10 of the Master Agreement shall apply in respect of this Letter, with necessary
changes.
	 
	13.7	 	The terms of this Letter may not be waived, modified or amended unless such waiver,
modification or amendment is in writing and signed by CEP and the Companies, nor may either
Company assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of CEP.
	 
	13.8	 	Unless expressly provided to the contrary, the obligations and liabilities of the Companies
under this Letter and the other Facility Documents shall be several, and not joint.
	 
	13.9	 	Subject to paragraph 13.11, CEP and the Companies agree that the First Existing Credit will
be transferred into, and adopted under, the Facility such that it will be deemed for all
purposes to be a Credit under the Facility as if it had been issued by the issuing bank as
nominee of CEP following a request by Platinum America to issue it under the Facility.
	 
	13.10	 	Subject to paragraph 13.11, CEP and the Companies agree that the Second Existing Credit will
be transferred into, and adopted under, the Facility such that it will be deemed for all
purposes to be a Credit under the Facility as if it had been issued by the issuing bank as
nominee of CEP following a request by Platinum America to issue it under the Facility.
	 
	13.11	 	Paragraphs 13.9 and 13.10 shall have no effect unless and until CEP and Platinum America
agree in writing that the First Existing Credit and the Second Existing Credit are deemed
transferred to the Facility.
	 
	14.	 	Definitions and Interpretation
	 
	14.1	 	Terms defined in any Facility Document shall have the same meanings when used in this Letter.
Additionally, the following terms have the following meanings.
	 
	 	 	A.M. Best Rating means a claims paying rating from A.M. Best Co. (or any successor),
provided that if such rating system shall change, or if it (or its successors) shall cease
to be in the business of rating the financial strength of insurance companies like the
Companies, the Companies shall negotiate in good faith to amend the references to specific
A.M. Best Co. ratings in this Letter to reflect such changed rating system or the
non-availability of ratings from such rating agency (provided that no such amendment shall
be effective unless approved by CEP, acting reasonably).
	 
	 	 	Approved Currency means any of: U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars, English pounds sterling,
Euro, Swiss francs, Japanese yen, New Zealand dollars, Australian dollars or any other
currency which has been approved by CEP;
	 
	 	 	Beneficiary has the meaning given in the Master Agreement.

Schedule 2

Anti-Tying Disclosure

Citigroup’s Global Corporate and Investment Bank (“GCIB”) maintains a policy of strict
compliance to the anti-tying provisions of the U.S. Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended,
and the regulations issued by the Federal Reserve Board implementing the anti-tying rules
(collectively, the “Anti-tying Rules”). Moreover, our credit policies provide that credit must be
underwritten in a safe and sound manner and be consistent with Section 23B of the Federal Reserve
Act and the requirements of federal law. Consistent with these requirements, and the GCIB’s
Anti-tying Policy:

	•	 	Companies will not be required to accept any particular product or service offered by
Citigroup or any Citigroup affiliate as a condition to the extension of commercial loans or
other products or services to Companies by Citigroup or any of its subsidiaries, unless such a
condition is permitted under an exception to the Anti-tying Rules.

	•	 	GCIB will not vary the price or other terms of any Citigroup product or service based on
the condition that Companies purchase any particular product or service from Citigroup or any
Citigroup affiliate, unless we are authorized to do so under an exception to the Anti-tying
Rules.

	•	 	GCIB will not require Companies to provide property or services to Citigroup or any
affiliate of Citigroup as a condition to the extension of a commercial loan to Companies by
Citigroup or any Citigroup subsidiary, unless such a requirement is reasonably required to
protect the safety and soundness of the loan.

	•	 	GCIB will not require Companies to refrain from doing business with a competitor of
Citigroup or any of its affiliates as a condition to receiving a commercial loan from
Citigroup or any of its subsidiaries, unless the requirement is reasonably designed to ensure
the soundness of the loan.
