                       ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT

     This Agreement is by and between United States Fire Insurance Company, a
New York-domiciled stock insurance company ("U.S. Fire"), and Fairfax
Information Technology Services, Inc., a Delaware company ("Fairfax").

                                  WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, U.S. Fire and Fairfax are affiliated companies, both of which are
indirectly, wholly-owned by Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, a Canadian
publicly held company whose shares are traded on The Toronto Stock Exchange; and

     WHEREAS, each party acknowledges that it is desirable that certain
management and general services be performed by U.S. Fire for Fairfax;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and
continuing relationships between the parties hereto, it is hereby agreed as
follows:

     FIRST: U.S. Fire hereby agrees to provide, and Fairfax hereby accepts,
certain general services of U.S. Fire. Such services shall include, without
limitation, the following: corporate communications and public relations; audit;
executive; legal; personnel; benefits and benefit plans; accounting, tax, and
other financial services; technology services; telecommunications services and
facilities management.

     SECOND: In consideration of the services provided pursuant to paragraph
First above, Fairfax hereby agrees to pay U.S. Fire monthly, on the first day of
each month, a prepaid estimate, as agreed by the parties, of all costs and fees
incurred by U.S. Fire in performing services under this Agreement, plus the cost
of those services. The amount of such monthly payments shall be adjusted
periodically to bring them into alignment with the actual costs, expenses and
fees incurred by U.S. Fire. Costs and expenses shall be allocated in accordance
with the provisions of New York Insurance Department Regulation 30. Adjustments
necessary to reflect the differences between the prepaid estimated amount and
actual allocable costs, expenses and, where applicable, management and service
fees shall be settled at least quarterly.

     THIRD: All books, records and files established and maintained by U.S. Fire
by reason of its performance under this Agreement, which, absent this Agreement,
would have been held by Fairfax, shall be the property of Fairfax.

     FOURTH: This Agreement is subject to the non-disapproval of the New York
Insurance Department, and such terms and conditions hereof as may be required by
the New York Insurance Department to be altered or amended shall be deemed
acceptable to the parties hereto, to the extent same shall not change the
substance and intent of this Agreement.

     FIFTH: Any dispute or difference arising with reference to the applicable
interpretation or effect of this Agreement, or any part thereof, shall be
referred to a Board of Arbitration (the "Board") of two (2) arbitrators and an
umpire.

     The members of the Board shall be U.S. citizens and shall be active or
retired disinterested officers of insurance or reinsurance companies.

     One arbitrator shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration and
designated in the letter requesting arbitration. The other party shall respond,
within fifteen (15) days, advising of its arbitrator. The umpire shall
thereafter be chosen by the two (2) arbitrators. In the event either party fails
to designate its arbitrator as indicated above, the other party is hereby
authorized and empowered to name the second arbitrator, and the party which
failed to designate its arbitrator shall be deemed to have waived its right to
designate an arbitrator and shall not be aggrieved thereby. The two (2)
arbitrators shall then have thirty (30) days within which to choose an umpire.
If

                                        5

<PAGE>

they are unable to do so, the umpire shall be chosen by the manager of the
American Arbitration Association who shall be a person meeting the
qualifications set forth above.

     Each party shall submit its case to the Board within one (1) month from the
date of the appointment of the umpire, but this period of time may be extended
by unanimous written consent of the Board.

     The sittings of the Board shall take place in Morristown, New Jersey,
unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties. The Board shall make its
decision with regard to the custom and usage of the insurance and reinsurance
business. The Board is released from all judicial formalities and may abstain
from the strict rules of law. The written decision of a majority of the Board
shall be rendered within sixty (60) days following the termination of the
Board's hearings, unless the parties consent to an extension. Such majority
decision of the Board shall be final and binding upon the parties both as to law
and fact, and may not be appealed to any court of any jurisdiction. Judgment may
be entered upon the final decision of the Board in any court of proper
jurisdiction.

     Each party shall bear the fees and expenses of the arbitrator selected by
or on its behalf, and the parties shall bear the fees and expenses of the umpire
as determined by the Board.

     SIXTH: This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither
this Agreement nor any right hereunder may be assigned by any party without the
prior written consent of the other party affected thereby, which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld.

     SEVENTH: U. S. Fire and Fairfax and their respective duly authorized
representatives shall, at all reasonable times, each be permitted access to all
relevant books and records of the other party pertaining to the services
provided and charges allocated to or billed pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement.

     EIGHTH: This Agreement may be terminated immediately by mutual consent of
the parties or by either party hereto giving sixty (60) days prior written
notice to the other party.

     NINTH: This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the principles of
conflicts of laws thereof.

     TENTH: This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties
concerning its subject matter and supercedes any and all other prior or
contemporaneous agreements, statements or understandings between the parties
concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be
modified or amended except by written instrument executed by each party.

     ELEVENTH: This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original for all purposes and all of which shall be
deemed, collectively, one and the same instrument and agreement.

     TWELFTH: This Agreement shall be effective as of January 1, 2001.

                                    ARTICLE I
                                    SERVICES

1.01   Hawaii agrees to provide certain services relating to the underwriting,
       issuance, and delivery of C&F Policies, and handling of Claims as

       time, which are incorporated herein by reference.

1.02   Subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement, Hawaii shall
       perform all acts necessary for the proper underwriting, placement,
       acceptance, and other servicing of C&F Policies including, but not
       limited to, the following:

       A.     underwriting, loss control, quoting, rating, premium audit, and

              delivering C&F Policies (executed by authorized officers of C&F,
              where appropriate); and

       C.     effecting endorsements, changes, and modifications to C&F Policies
              as authorized by C&F; and

       D.     administering cancellation and non-renewal of C&F Policies; and

         pursuant to this Agreement in such form as C&F may approve or require
         from time to time.

                                   ARTICLE II
                                DUTIES OF HAWAII

2.01     Hawaii shall comply with all applicable local, state, and federal laws,
         regulations, rules, and requirements regarding Hawaii's duties under
         this Agreement. Hawaii shall immediately give notice to C&F if Hawaii

         in-force, that would prohibit the conduct of any Services contemplated
         herein.

2.02     Hawaii represents and warrants that it has obtained all licenses or
         other authorizations necessary to provide the Services in all
         jurisdictions where such licenses or authorizations may be required and

         is altered in any way. Further, Hawaii shall have a continuing
         obligation to obtain and maintain any such licenses or authorizations
         as may be necessary to provide the Services.

         licenses of any sub-agent, general agent, producer, or broker from

         general agents, sub-agents, and producers who place business through
         Hawaii.

2.04     Hawaii shall maintain true and correct records relating to the C&F
         Policies written and the Services provided herein including, but not
         limited to, all transactions and correspondence with policyholders,
         producers, sub-producers, brokers, state insurance departments,
         reinsurers, and C&F. All records and documents required to be
         maintained by Hawaii referred to herein including, but not limited to,
         insurance policy, policyholder information, underwriting files, and
         financial documents, shall be maintained during the Term and thereafter
         in a manner and form as mutually agreed upon or as required by C&F to
         be compatible with C&F's internal systems and in accordance with
         generally accepted accounting principles and insurance regulatory
         practices. Such records shall be maintained for a period of no less
         than five (5) years after termination of this Agreement, and in such
         manner and form as may be required by C&F's record retention
         guidelines. At the end of such five (5) year period, Hawaii shall
         provide C&F with the originals of such records.

         This Section 2.04 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.05     On request, Hawaii will forward to C&F exact copies of all C&F Policies
         or other appropriate evidences of insurance written, modified, or
         cancelled pursuant to this Agreement; underwriting and financial
         documents or other reports written, produced, or received hereunder;
         policyholder data; or any other information in Hawaii's possession
         requested by C&F relating to the C&F Policies.

         This Section 2.05 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.06     Hawaii shall advise C&F within five (5) days of its knowledge of any
         inquiry, investigation, cease and desist order, audit, complaint, or
         other similar item received from any state or federal regulatory or law
         enforcement body relating to C&F Policies whether or not related to the
         Services.

2.07     At any time upon reasonable notice to Hawaii, Hawaii shall make its
         books and records relating in any way to C&F Policies written hereunder
         available for inspection (including on-site inspection, audit, and
         copying) by C&F or its representatives, reinsurers, any state insurance
         department or regulatory body, or any governmental authority.

         This Section 2.07 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.08     With regard to the C&F Policies written, Hawaii shall provide, at its
         expense and within a reasonable time, sufficient information to satisfy
         reasonable reporting requirements imposed on C&F by boards, bureaus,
         and associations, and to enable C&F and reinsurers to file required
         financial statements and reports with state insurance departments and
         regulatory bodies. C&F shall provide Hawaii with such written reporting
         requirements.

         This Section 2.08 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

2.09     Hawaii may use the name, logo, or service mark of C&F or any of its
         affiliates in any advertising, promotional material, or in any material
         disseminated by Hawaii with the prior written consent of C&F. Hawaii
         shall maintain copies and provide an original to C&F of any
         advertisement or other materials approved by C&F along with full
         details concerning where, when, and how it was used. Hawaii shall be
         liable for any liability of or cost incurred by C&F as a result of any
         such materials.

2.10     All supplies provided to, or authorized to be used by, Hawaii by C&F
         shall remain the property of C&F and shall be returned immediately upon
         request. Upon termination of this Agreement or Hawaii's authority
         hereunder, at C&F's request, Hawaii shall return all, or such property
         as C&F may request, to C&F or to its designated representative.

2.11     If C&F provides access to C&F information or networks through computer
         access, Hawaii shall be responsible for maintaining the security and
         integrity of such information and of C&F's systems. Additionally,
         Hawaii shall be responsible to ensure that Hawaii's employees, agents,
         and representatives are aware of the sensitive and proprietary nature
         of the information obtained, of the importance of confidentiality, and
         of the conditions described in this Section 2.11.

3.01     Hawaii will require all premiums for C&F Policies to be paid directly
         to C&F. Any premiums or monies collected by Hawaii are the property of
         C&F and shall be held in trust on behalf of C&F in a fiduciary capacity
         and shall be immediately endorsed over to C&F without deposit by Hawaii
         and forwarded to C&F in no more than two (2) business days.

         in any material respect any duties or obligations set forth in this
         Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for seven (7) days after
         written notice shall be provided to such defaulting party by the
