                         CLAIMS ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT

         THIS  CLAIMS  ADMINISTRATION  AGREEMENT,  dated as of May 14, 2002 (the
"Signing  Date"),  is by and among INSpire Claims  Management,  Inc., a Delaware
corporation  and debtor and  debtor-in-possession  ("INSpire  Claims"),  INSpire
Insurance    Solutions,    Inc.,   a   Texas    corporation   and   debtor   and
debtor-in-possession  ("INSpire  Insurance"),  and Arrowhead Claims  Management,
Inc. a California  corporation  ("Customer").  INSpire Claims, INSpire Insurance
and  Customer  are  sometimes  collectively  referred to as the  "Parties,"  and
individually  referred to as a "Party."  This Claims  Administration  Agreement,
together  with  the  Schedules   referenced  herein  and  attached  hereto,  are
collectively referred to as this "Agreement."

                                    RECITALS

         A. INSpire Claims provides  certain claims  administration  services to
Customer pursuant to a Claims  Administration  Services  Agreement,  dated as of
December 1, 1998, by and between INSpire Claims and Arrowhead  General Insurance
Agency, Inc., a Minnesota corporation ("AGIA"),  which was subsequently assigned
to Customer (the "Claims Administration Agreement").

         B. INSpire Claims,  INSpire Insurance and Customer subsequently entered
into a Claims  Management  System  and  Support  Services  Agreement  and  First
Amendment to Claims Administration Agreement,  dated as of January 11, 2002 (the
"Claims  Management  Agreement"),  by which,  among other  things,  the personal
automobile  claims servicing  business was removed from the terms and conditions
of the Claims  Administration  Agreement and INSpire Insurance agreed to provide
certain services to Customer.

         C.  INSpire  Insurance,  INSpire  Claims  and  Customer  now  desire to
terminate  the  Claims  Administration   Agreement  and  the  Claims  Management
Agreement and to concurrently enter into various new agreements,  including this
Agreement, which will collectively establish a new business relationship between
the Parties.

         D.  On  February  15,  2002,   INSpire  Claims  and  INSpire  Insurance
voluntarily  filed  petitions  for relief under  Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy  Code") with the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the  Northern  District  of Texas,  Fort  Worth  Division  (the  "Bankruptcy
Court"),  which are jointly being administered under Case No.  02-41228-DML (the
"Bankruptcy Case").

         E. INSpire  Insurance,  INSpire Claims and Customer further desire that
this Agreement,  as well as the other agreements referenced in it, shall only be
effective  and binding on them if (1) all of such  agreements  are approved by a
final  order  of the  Bankruptcy  Court  acceptable  in form  and  substance  to
Customer, and (2) INSpire's rejection of the Claims Administration Agreement and
the Claims  Management  Agreement is approved by a final order of the Bankruptcy
Court acceptable in form and substance to Customer.

                             STATEMENT OF AGREEMENT

NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the promises and the mutual  agreements,
covenants,  representations  and  warranties set forth in this Agreement and for
other good,  valid and binding  consideration,  the receipt and  sufficiency  of
which are hereby  acknowledged,  the  Parties,  intending  to be legally  bound,
hereby agree as follows:

                                    ARTICLE I
                               SERVICES;TERM; FEES

         Section 1.1 Services. Effective on the later of the Signing Date or the
date when this Agreement is approved by final order of the  Bankruptcy  Court as
provided  for herein  (the  "Effective  Date")  and during the Term (as  defined
below),  INSpire Claims will provide the services set forth on Schedule 1.1 (the
"Services"),  to  Customer  upon the  terms  and  conditions  set  forth in this
Agreement. In addition to the Services,  INSpire Claims will provide to Customer
such other claims administration  services as Customer may reasonably request in
writing  from time to time during the Term and with respect to which the Parties
will have agreed  regarding  the scope,  nature and pricing of such services and
the time period during which such  services  will be provided  (the  "Additional
Services").  During the Term of this  Agreement,  Customer may assume certain of
the  Services  from  INSpire  Claims  upon  terms  and   conditions   which  are
mutually-agreeable  to  the  Parties  and,  with  respect  to  such  transferred
services,  the Parties have agreed that INSpire  Claims' costs  associated  with
such services (the  "Transferred  Services") shall be borne by Customer and then
offset  against the Services Fee as set forth in Section  1.3(a).  Such transfer
shall be executed only through a signed addendum to this Agreement.

         Section 1.2 Term. The term during which INSpire Claims will provide the
Services to Customer  will  commence  on the  Effective  Date and will expire on
December 31, 2008 (the "Expiration Date") unless extended or terminated pursuant
to the  terms of this  Agreement  (the  "Term").  The  Expiration  Date  will be
extended  automatically  for a period  of one year  unless  either  Party  gives
written notice of  non-extension to the other Party at least six months prior to
the then current Expiration Date.

         Section 1.3   Services Fee, Quarterly Minimums and Related Expenses.

                  (a)  Services  Fee.  During  the  Term,  Customer  will pay to
INSpire  Claims for the  performance of the Services a fee which will be payable
monthly  and  calculated  by  multiplying  (i)  the  amount  of  Earned  Premium
recognized  by  Customer  that is subject  to the  Services  in the  immediately
preceding  month, by (ii) 7.15% (the "Services  Fee").  For the purposes of this
Agreement,  "Earned Premium" will mean the aggregate amount of personal property
premiums,  for the products and carriers in the  authorized  states  included in
Schedule 1.1,  recognized as earned by Customer during a particular time period.
The Services Fee will be due and payable in arrears on the last day of the month
following the close of the calendar month in which the Services were performed.

                                       3
<PAGE>

                  (b) Quarterly  Minimums.  During each calendar  quarter of the
Term,  the Services Fee payable each month will not be less than an amount equal
to  Eighty  Percent  (80%)  of the  average  monthly  Services  Fee  paid in the
immediately prior calendar quarter (the "Quarterly Minimum").

                  (c) Unanticipated  and Increased  Service Level Changes.  Each
Party agrees to negotiate in good faith for an adjustment to the Services Fee in
the  event  of any  statutory,  regulatory  or  judicial  changes  that  require
additional activities not then provided for pursuant to this Agreement.

                  (d) Taxes.  Customer  will pay all tariffs and taxes,  however
designated or levied,  now existing or imposed in the future that are applicable
to the Services or the Services  Fee.  Such tariffs and taxes  include state and
local privilege and excise taxes, sales, use and personal property taxes and any
other  tariff  or tax  based on  Services  performed,  equipment  used,  and the
communication or storage of data.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  Customer will
not be  responsible  for, and INSpire will pay (i) any franchise or income taxes
based upon the income of INSpire Claims,  (ii) any personal  property or similar
taxes based upon the personal or real property owned or leased by INSpire Claims
and used in the  performance of the Services,  and (iii) Texas state sales taxes
payable  as a result  of the  Services  Fee due to  INSpire  Claims  under  this
Agreement;  provided, however, that (1) the maximum annual Texas state sales tax
base (the amount on which Texas  state  sales taxes are  calculated)  payable by
INSpire on the Services Fee will not exceed the product of  $5,000,000 of Earned
Income multiplied by the then effective  Services Fee, and (2) Customer will pay
the excess of such maximum amount.

                  (e) Loss Adjustment Expenses. Unless expressly provided for in
this  Agreement,  INSpire Claims will be entitled to no other  compensation.  To
this end,  INSpire Claims will pay with its own funds, and not with the funds of
Customer or insurers or reinsurers  represented  by Customer,  all allocated and
unallocated loss adjustment  expenses  necessary to perform Services,  including
its  overhead,  personnel  and  administrative  expenses,  the costs of  records
retrieval,  medical reviews,  investigators,  appraisers,  experts and all other
vendors and  subcontractors.  Unless  expressly  provided for in this Agreement,
Customer and the insurers and  reinsurers  represented  by Customer will have no
obligation to reimburse  INSpire Claims for any internal or external expenses or
loss  adjustment  expenses  incurred  by INSpire  Claims in the  performance  of
Services, except in the event of extraordinary loss adjustment expenses incurred
as the direct result of a catastrophic  event, in which instance INSpire will be
entitled to be reimbursed for those  extraordinary  loss adjustment  expenses on
the condition  that the expenses are deemed  reasonable  and  appropriate by the
insurer and are  reimbursable to INSpire by the insurer.  Under no circumstances
will  Customer  have any  obligation to pay any amount to INSpire in addition to
the Services Fee set forth in Section 1.3(a).

                  (f) Service Level Penalty  Payment.  During the Term,  INSpire
Claims will pay to Customer the penalty  payments  set forth in Schedule  1.3(f)
attached  to this  Agreement  for the  failure of INSpire  Claims to achieve the
Service Levels (as defined below) during the specified time period (the "Service
Level Penalties"). Service Level Penalties shall not in the aggregate exceed 15%

                                       4
<PAGE>

of the  Services  Fee  payable  in any  month.  Payment  of such  Service  Level
Penalties shall not in any way limit, restrict or relieve any Party of liability
for any breach of this  Agreement.  INSpire  Claims will pay the  Service  Level
Penalties to Customer  within thirty days of the close of the time period during
which the penalty payments were calculated or, alternatively, Customer may, upon
thirty (30) days notice to INSpire  Claims,  offset the Service Level  Penalties
owed by INSpire  Claims  against the Services Fee payable by Customer to INSpire
Claims.  In the event that INSpire Claims  believes that Service Level Penalties
have been improperly offset by Customer, INSpire Claims shall have full recourse
to all remedies provided for in Article VII of this Agreement.

                  (g) Penalty  Identification.  Penalties will be identified via
system  reports,  where  available,  or via audit by  Customer.  Audits shall be
conducted quarterly or monthly, at Customer's option, upon ten (10) days written
notice to  INSpire  Claims  and will  consist  of a review  of a sample  size of
transactions   constituting   at  least  10%  of  the  universe  of   applicable
transactions for the specified audit period. Audit results will be considered by
Customer  and  INSpire  Claims  to be  applicable  to  100% of the  universe  of
applicable  transactions  for that  specified  audit  period for the purposes of
calculating Penalties only if Service Levels are not met in more than 95% of the
files audited.

                  (h) Acts Beyond Control. If an event described in Section 8.14
of this Agreement [Force Majeure clause] impacts INSpire Claims' ability to meet
a Service  Level,  then INSpire Claims will not be penalized for failing to meet
that Service  Level to the extent that such event has affected  INSpire  Claims'
ability to meet its obligations.

                  (i) Interest on Past Due Payments.  Any sum due INSpire Claims
pursuant to this  Agreement that is not paid on the date on which payment is due
shall bear interest from that date until the date such sum is paid at the lesser
of 1.5 percent per month or the maximum rate of interest  allowed by  applicable
law.  Customer  will  also  pay  INSpire  Claims  for any  reasonable  expenses,
including  attorney's fees,  incurred by INSpire Claims in the collection of any
amounts due and payable under this Agreement.

                  (j) Electronic Funds  Transfer.  INSpire Claims  will  provide
Customer bank routing  information.  All payments are to be via Electronic Funds
Transfer (EFT),  unless  otherwise  agreed to in writing by the parties,  to the
account specified in writing by INSpire Claims.

                  (k) Payment  of  Undisputed  Amounts.  In the event that there
is an amount in  dispute,  Customer  is still  obligated  to pay all  undisputed
amounts on all invoices.

         Section 1.4 Policy Processing and Administration Agreement; Sublease of
Premises;  Software License Agreement;  Professional  Services Agreement;  Asset
Purchase  Agreement;   Comprehensive  Preferred  Escrow  Agreement;  and  Policy
Processing and Administration Agreement.

                  (a) Sublease of  Premises.  Concurrent  with the  execution of
this Agreement,  and as a condition to it, AGIA and INSpire Insurance will enter
into a separate  Sublease  by which  INSpire  Insurance  shall  sublease  office

into a separate  Asset Purchase  Agreement by which INSpire  Insurance will sell
certain  assets  to AGIA  and  AGIA  will  purchase  such  assets  from  INSpire

the execution of this  Agreement,  and as a condition to it, AGIA,  Customer and
INSpire  Insurance  will  enter into  separate  Comprehensive  Preferred  Escrow
Agreement  by which  INSpire  Insurance  will  maintain  in escrow a copy of the
object  code and  source  code for the latest  version  of  INSpire  Insurance's

                  (f) Policy Processing and Administration Agreement. Concurrent
with the execution of this Agreement, and as a condition to it, AGIA and INSpire
Insurance  will enter  into a  separate  Policy  Processing  and  Administration
Agreement by which INSpire  Insurance will provide certain policy processing and
administration services to AGIA.

         Section 3.3 No  Solicitation.  Each Party agrees that without the other
Party's prior written consent, neither such Party nor any of its affiliates will
solicit for employment, employ or otherwise contract for or solicit the services
of any person who is now employed by the other  Party,  for a period of one year
from the Effective Date, provided that this paragraph shall not apply to general
commercially  published  solicitations  for  employment  by a Party or responses
thereto  by  employees  of the  other  Party or to the  hiring of  employees  as
contemplated by the definitive  agreements  pursuant to which this Agreement was
executed.

          Section 3.4 Required  Disclosure.  In the event the Receiving Party or
its Representatives  are requested or required in a judicial,  administrative or
governmental proceeding to disclose any Confidential Information,  the Receiving
Party  shall  cooperate  with the  Disclosing  Party and  provide it with prompt
notice of any such request so that the Disclosing  Party may seek an appropriate
protective  order  and/or  waive  the  Receiving  Party's  compliance  with  the
provisions of this  Agreement.  If, in the absence of a protective  order or the
receipt of a waiver hereunder,  the Receiving Party or its  Representatives  are
nonetheless, in the opinion of the Receiving Party's attorneys, legally required
to disclose  Confidential  Information  to any tribunal or else stand liable for
contempt  or  suffer  other  penalty,  the  Receiving  Party may  disclose  such
information  to such tribunal  without  liability  hereunder,  provided that the
Receiving Party complies with the notice provisions of this paragraph.

          Section 3.5 Return of Confidential Information. Upon the expiration or
termination of this Agreement,  the Receiving  Party shall promptly,  and in any
event upon request by the Disclosing Party,  deliver to the Disclosing Party all
Confidential  Information,  including  all  written  and  electronically  stored
copies.  Neither the Disclosing  Party nor its  Representatives  will retain any
copies,  extracts  or  other  reproductions,  in  whole  or  in  part,  of  such
Confidential  Information.  At the Disclosing  Party's  request,  all documents,

                                       10
<PAGE>

memoranda,  notes and other such writings prepared by the Receiving Party or its
Representatives  based on the information in the  Confidential  Information,  or
which quote from or summarize any Confidential Information, will be destroyed as
soon as  reasonably  practicable,  and such  destruction  shall be  certified in
writing to the Disclosing Party by an authorized  officer of the Receiving Party
supervising the destruction.

          Section 3.6 Remedies for Breach. The Parties acknowledge that a breach
of the covenant of  confidentiality  contained in this  Agreement  may result in
irreparable and continuing  damage to the Disclosing  Party for which there will
be no adequate remedy at law. In the event of any breach of this Agreement,  the
Receiving  Party agrees that the Disclosing  Party shall be entitled to seek and
obtain specific performance of this Agreement by the Receiving Party, including,
upon  making the  requisite  showing  that it is entitled  thereto,  provisional
injunctive  relief  restraining the Receiving Party from committing such breach,
in addition to such other and further relief,  including  monetary  damages,  as
provided by law.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                       TRADE SECRET AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

         Section 4.1 No Rights to Software.  Notwithstanding  any use by INSpire
Claims of any proprietary  computer  software programs in the performance of the
Services,  neither this Agreement nor the performance of any Services  hereunder
will be construed as a grant of a license or any other interest in or to INSpire
Claims' computer software programs.  Further,  this Agreement grants to Customer
no right to possess or reproduce,  or any other interest in, any of the computer
software  programs used in the performance of all or any part of the Services or
their  specifications  in any tangible or  intangible  medium.  Customer may not
mortgage,  hypothecate,  sell,  assign,  pledge,  lease,  transfer,  license  or
sublicense any computer  software programs used in the performance of all or any
part of the  Services,  nor allow any  person  or  entity to  transmit,  copy or
reproduce any such computer software programs.  In the event Customer comes into
possession of the computer  software  programs used in the performance of all or
any part of the Services,  Customer will  immediately  notify INSpire Claims and
return such  computer  software  programs  and all copies of any kind thereof to
INSpire Claims.

         Section 4.2  Nondisclosure.  Other than  Customer's  employees who need
access to  computer  software  programs  for the  performance  of their  duties,
Customer covenants and agrees not to disclose or otherwise make available to any
person any computer software programs used in the performance of all or any part
of the  Services.  Customer  agrees to take all  reasonable  steps  necessary to
obligate each of its  employees  who is given access to such  computer  software
programs to a level of care sufficient to protect the computer software programs
from unauthorized disclosure.

         Section 4.3 Survival.  THE OBLIGATION OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS ARTICLE
AND  ARTICLE  III WILL  CONTINUE  AFTER THIS AGREEMENT EXPIRES OR IS TERMINATED.

                                   TERMINATION

         Section 5.1  Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated
prior to the Expiration Date only as follows:

                  (a) by the  non-breaching  Party  upon a breach  by the  other
Party of its duties or obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that
(i) such  breach  remains  substantially  uncured  within 30 days after  written
notice  specifying such breach is received by the breaching  Party, or (ii) with
respect to a breach  that cannot be  reasonably  cured  within a 30-day  period,
should the defaulting  party fail to proceed within 30 days after written notice
specifying  the breach to commence  curing the default  and  thereafter  fail to
proceed with all reasonable diligence to cure substantially the default;

                  (b) by a Party  in the  event  (i)  the  other  Party  makes a
general  assignment  for the benefit of creditors,  (ii) the other Party files a
voluntary  petition in  bankruptcy or petitions  for  reorganization  or similar
arrangement  under the bankruptcy  laws,  excepting the Bankruptcy Case, (iii) a
petition  in  bankruptcy  is filed  against the other Party by a third party and
such  petition is not dismissed  within  ninety days of its filing date,  (iv) a
receiver or trustee is appointed  for all or any part of the property and assets
of the other  Party,  or (v) the  Bankruptcy  Case is  converted to a case under
Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code;

                  (c) by Customer,  upon  commission by INSpire Claims of fraud,
criminal conduct or willful violation of an insurance statute or regulation,  if
said  conduct by INSpire  Claims has a  material  adverse  effect on  Customer's
ability  to engage in  business.  This  paragraph  does not apply to  conduct by
INSpire Claims' employees who are not acting at the direction of INSpire Claims;
or

                  (d) by  INSpire Claims  if  Customer's  Written  Premium falls
below $20,000,000 on an annual basis.

         Section 5.2  Procedure Upon Expiration or Termination.  Upon expiration
or termination of this Agreement:

                  (a) Customer  may (i) assume  control of such open claim files
as Customer  may elect,  in which case INSpire  Claims will take all  reasonable
steps  necessary  to effect the orderly  transfer  of such claims  files so that
Customer's  liability for claims or allocated  loss  adjustment  expenses is not
incurred,  or (ii)  require  INSpire  Claims  to  continue  to  administer  to a
conclusion  such open claim files as Customer may elect,  in which case Customer
will  pay  INSpire  Claims  a  reasonable  fee on a  time  and  materials  basis
reasonably established by INSpire Claims;

                  (b)  INSpire  Claims  will  promptly  return to  Customer  any
policies,  forms or other supplies imprinted with Customer's name, regardless of
who  incurred  the cost for same as well as all  files and  documents  regarding
Customer's policies and claims;

                                       12
<PAGE>

                  (c) INSpire Claims will provide promptly to Customer,  without
charge, a tape backup of all data files. Further, for a reasonable fee on a time
and  materials  basis,  INSpire  Claims will provide to Customer  the  personnel
necessary  to assist with the  records  layout and file  structures  of the data
files such that these  records and data files can be  transferred  to a new data
base designated by Customer.  In the event that  termination is as a result of a
breach by INSpire Claims,  Customer shall have the right to maintain and process
claims arising on its policies on INSpire Claims' then current  software systems
for a period of six months so that  Customer  can effect an orderly  transfer of
its business to a new  processing  system;  provided that Customer shall pay all
third party maintenance, license and other fees in order to do so;

                  (d) Such expiration or termination will not in any  way limit,
restrict or relieve any Party of liability for any breach of this Agreement; and

                  (e)  The automatic stay under the Bankruptcy  Code will not in
any way limit or restrict  Customer from  exercising its rights or remedies upon
expiration or termination of this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                      REMEDIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

         Section 6.1       Indemnification of the Parties.

                  (a) Each Party (the "Indemnitor") will indemnify,  defend, and
hold  harmless  the  other  Party  (the   "Indemnitee")  from  and  against  any
arbitration award,  claim,  cost,  damage,  demand,  expense,  fine,  liability,
lawsuit,  obligation,  payment  or  penalty  of any kind or  nature  whatsoever,
including any reasonable  attorneys'  fees and expenses (a "Claim")  incurred by
the  Indemnitee  that  arises out of or  directly  relates  to the  Indemnitor's
performance  or breach of this  Agreement.  Upon an  Indemnitee's  request,  the
Indemnitor  will  indemnify the  Indemnitee's  directors,  employees,  officers,
agents,  attorneys,  representatives and shareholders to the same extent as such
Indemnitee.  No such person,  however,  will be a third party beneficiary of the
indemnification  provision  set forth in this  Agreement.  To the extent  that a
Indemnitee  requests the Indemnitor to indemnify  such party's  representatives,
the Indemnitee will cause its representatives to comply with the indemnification
provisions  and  abide  by the  indemnification  limitations  set  forth in this
Agreement.

                  (b) Customer hereby fully and irrevocably waives, releases and
discharges all existing and potential claims, awards, costs, demands,  expenses,
liabilities,  fines,  balances,  payments,  demands  for  payment or rights that
Customer may have against INSpire Claims and INSpire Insurance, which in any way
relate to or arise from the  services  rendered  by INSpire  Claims and  INSpire
Insurance under the Claims  Administration  Agreement and the Claims  Management
Agreement,  except for claims for  indemnification  arising from INSpire Claims'
negligent  handling of claims under  Customer's  policies prior to the Effective
Date of this Agreement.  INSpire Claims and INSpire  Insurance  hereby fully and
irrevocably  waive,  release and discharge  all existing and  potential  claims,
awards,  costs,  demands,  expenses,  liabilities,  fines,  balances,  payments,
demands for payment or rights  INSpire  Claims and  INSpire  Insurance  may have

                                       13
<PAGE>

against Customer, which in any way relate to or arise from the services rendered
by  INSpire  Claims  and  INSpire  Insurance  under  the  Claims  Administration
Agreement  and the  Claims  Management  Agreement,  except  for (i)  claims  for
indemnification  arising from Customer's  negligent handling of claims under its
own  policies on or after the  Effective  Date of this  Agreement,  and (ii) any
amounts owed to INSpire pursuant to the Claims Administration  Agreement and the
Claims Management  Agreement for services rendered by INSpire from April 1, 2002
until the  Effective  Date.  INSpire  Claims  will  indemnify,  defend  and hold
Customer  harmless from  liability for negligent  claims  handling  prior to the
Effective Date,  unless the claims were handled in compliance with the direction
of Customer or the insurer.  Customer  will  indemnify,  defend and hold INSpire
Claims harmless for Customer's negligent claims handling, unless the claims were
handled in compliance with the direction of the insurer.

         Section  6.2  Limitations  of  Liability.  INSpire  Claims and  INSpire
Insurance  will not be liable  for any  damages  or  indemnification  under this
Agreement  arising out of any handling of any claims under  Customer's  policies
where bad faith is  alleged  (the "Bad Faith  Claims")  (a) except to the extent
such Bad Faith Claim arises out of or is directly related to INSpire Claims' and
INSpire  Insurance  negligence,  gross  negligence or willful  misconduct in the
performance of the Services;  provided, however, that INSpire Claims and INSpire
Insurance will have no liability hereunder in connection with any action, or any
failure to take an action,  taken at the  direction of  Customer,  (b) until the
amount of the aggregate of all Bad Faith Claims for damages and  indemnification
for which INSpire Claims and INSpire  Insurance  would  otherwise be responsible
exceeds  $50,000 in any  particular  calendar year (the  "Deductible")  and then
INSpire Claims and INSpire  Insurance will only be responsible for the amount in
excess of the  Deductible,  and (c) to the extent that the  aggregate  amount of
such Bad Faith Claims exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate.

         Section   6.3   Limitation   Acknowledgement.   Each  Party   expressly
acknowledges  that the  limitations  set forth in this Article VI represent  the
express agreement of the Parties with respect to the allocation of risks between
the Parties,  including the level of risk to be associated  with the performance
of the  Services as related to the amount of the  payments to be made to INSpire
Claims for such  Services,  and each party  fully  understands  and  irrevocably
accepts such limitations.

         Section  6.4 Notice of Claim.  Any award of damages or  indemnification
pursuant to this Agreement is conditioned  upon the Indemnitor  having  received
full and prompt notice in writing of the Claim and the  Indemnitee  allowing the
Indemnitor to fully direct the defense or  settlement  of such Claim;  provided,
however,  that the failure to receive  prompt notice  relieves the Indemnitor of
its  obligations  under  this  Article  only  if the  Indemnitor  is  materially
prejudiced  by the failure to receive such notice.  The  Indemnitor  will not be
responsible for any settlement or compromise made without its consent.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                       ARBITRATION AND EQUITABLE REMEDIES

         Section 7.1 Settlement Meeting.  The Parties will attempt in good faith
to resolve  promptly through  negotiations any dispute under this Agreement.  If
any such dispute should arise,  the Parties,  will meet at least once to attempt
to resolve  the matter  (the  "Settlement  Meeting").  Any Party may request the
other Parties to attend a Settlement Meeting at a mutually agreed time and place
within ten days after  delivery of a notice of a dispute.  The  occurrence  of a
Settlement  Meeting with  respect to a dispute will be a condition  precedent to
seeking any arbitration or judicial remedy,  provided that if a Party refuses to
attend a Settlement Meeting the other Parties may proceed to seek such remedy.

         Section 7.2 Arbitration Proceedings. If the Parties have not resolved a
monetary  dispute at the  Settlement  Meeting any Party may submit the matter to
arbitration.   A  panel  of  three  arbitrators  will  conduct  the  arbitration
proceedings in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act (99
U.S.C.  Section 1 et seq.) and the Commercial  Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association (the "Arbitration Rules"). The decision of a majority of
the panel will be the decision of the arbitrators.

                  (a)  Arbitration  Notice.  To  submit a  monetary  dispute  to
arbitration, a Party will furnish the other Parties and the American Arbitration
Association with a notice (the "Arbitration Notice") containing (i) the name and
address of such Party,  (ii) the nature of the  monetary  dispute in  reasonable
detail, (iii) the Party's intent to commence arbitration  proceedings under this
Agreement, and (iv) the other information required under the Federal Arbitration
Act and the Arbitration Rules.

                  (b) Selection of  Arbitrators.  Within ten days after delivery
of the Arbitration  Notice,  each Party will select one arbitrator from the list
of  the  American  Arbitration   Association's   National  Panel  of  Commercial
Arbitrators.  Within  ten days  after  the  selection  of the last of those  two
arbitrators,  those two arbitrators  will select the third  arbitrator from such
list. If the first two arbitrators  cannot select a third arbitrator within such
ten-day  period,  the American  Arbitration  Association  will select such third
arbitrator  from the list.  Each arbitrator will be an individual not subject to
disqualification  under Rule No. 19 of the Arbitration  Rules with experience in
settling complex litigation involving the insurance industry.

                  (c)  Arbitration  Final.  The  arbitration  of the  matters in
controversy and the  determination  of any amount of damages or  indemnification
will be final and binding  upon the Parties to the maximum  extent  permitted by
law,  provided that any Party may seek any equitable  remedy available under Law
as provided in this Agreement. This agreement to arbitrate is irrevocable.

         Section 7.3 Place of Arbitration.  Any arbitration  proceedings will be
conducted at such neutral location outside of the States of California and Texas
as the  Parties  may  agree.  If a neutral  location  cannot be agreed to by the
parties,  then the  arbitration  proceedings  will be held in  Albuquerque,  New

                                       15
<PAGE>

Mexico.  The arbitrators  will hold the arbitration  proceedings  within 60 days
after the selection of the third arbitrator.

         Section 7.4 Discovery.  During the period  beginning with the selection
of the third  arbitrator  and  ending  upon the  conclusion  of the  arbitration
proceedings,  the  arbitrators  will have the authority to permit the Parties to
conduct such discovery as the arbitrators consider appropriate.

         Section 7.5 Equitable Remedies.  Notwithstanding  anything else in this
Agreement to the contrary, after the Settlement Meeting a Party will be entitled
to seek any equitable  remedies available under law. Any such equitable remedies
will be in addition to any damages or indemnification rights that such Party may
assert in an arbitration proceeding.

         Section 7.6 Judgments.  Any arbitration award under this Agreement will
be final and binding.  Any court having  jurisdiction may enter judgment on such
arbitration award upon application of a Party.

         Section 7.7 Expenses. If any Party commences arbitration proceedings or
court proceedings  seeking equitable relief with respect to this Agreement,  the
prevailing Party in such arbitration  proceedings or case may receive as part of
any award or judgment  reimbursement of such Party's reasonable  attorneys' fees
and expenses to the extent that the arbitrators or court considers appropriate.

         Section 7.8 Cost of the  Arbitration.  The arbitrators  will assess the
costs of the  arbitration  proceedings,  including their fees, to the Parties in
such proportions as the arbitrators consider reasonable under the circumstances.

         Section 7.9  Exclusivity of Remedies.  To the extent  permitted by law,
the  arbitration  and  judicial  remedies  set forth in this Article will be the
exclusive  remedies  available to the Parties with respect to any dispute  under
this Agreement or claim for damages or indemnification under this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 8.1 Amendment. No amendment of this Agreement will be effective
unless in writing signed by the Parties.

         Section 8.2 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts,  each of which will be deemed to be an original agreement,  but
all of which will constitute one and the same agreement.

         Section 8.3 Entire  Agreement.  This Agreement  constitutes  the entire
agreement  and  understanding  between  the  Parties  and  supersedes  all prior
agreements  and  understandings,  both  written  and oral,  with  respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement.

respect to the  negotiation  and  preparation  of this Agreement.

its duties under this  Agreement  without the prior  consent of the other Party.
Any attempted  assignment or delegation without such prior consent will be void.
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  each Party may  assign  its rights  under this
Agreement to a purchaser  of all the assets or equity of such Party  without the
other Party's consent,  and any such purchaser and any subsequent  purchasers of
all of the assets or equity of such Party may similarly assign such rights.

                 POLICY PROCESSING AND ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT

         THIS POLICY PROCESSING AND  ADMINISTRATION  AGREEMENT,  dated as of May
14, 2002 (the  "Signing  Date"),  is by and among INSpire  Insurance  Solutions,
Inc., a Texas corporation, and debtor and debtor-in-possession  ("INSpire"), and
Arrowhead General Insurance Agency, Inc., a Minnesota corporation ("Customer" or
"AGIA").  INSpire and Customer  are  sometimes  collectively  referred to as the
"Parties," and individually referred to as a "Party." This Policy Processing and
Administration  Agreement,  together  with the Schedules  referenced  herein and
attached hereto, are collectively referred to as this "Agreement."

                                    RECITALS

         A.  INSpire   provides   certain  policy   processing,   servicing  and
administration services to Customer pursuant to a Policy Administration Services
Agreement dated as of December 1, 1998, by and between INSpire and Customer (the
"Policy Administration Agreement").

         B. INSpire and Customer  desire to terminate the Policy  Administration
 Agreement and to concurrently enter into various new agreements, including this
 Agreement,  which  will  collectively  establish  a new  business  relationship
 between the Parties.

         C.  INSpire  and  Customer  further  desire by  entering  into this new
 Agreement  to reach a  resolution  of  certain  issues  concerning  the  Policy
 Administration  Agreement including the removal of personal automobile business
 from the  Policy  Administration  Agreement,  the  alleged  non-performance  of
 INSpire  under the  Policy  Administration  Agreement,  and the  resolution  of
 amounts   allegedly  due  and  owing  between  the  Parties  under  the  Policy
 Administration Agreement.

         D. On February  15,  2002,  INSpire  voluntarily  filed a petition  for
 relief under Chapter 11 of the United States  Bankruptcy Code (the  "Bankruptcy
 Code") with the United  States  Bankruptcy  Court for the Northern  District of
 Texas,  Fort Worth Division (the  "Bankruptcy  Court"),  which is  administered
 under Case No. 02-41228-DML (the "Bankruptcy Case").

         E. INSpire and Customer further desire that this Agreement,  as well as
 the other  agreements  referenced in it, shall only be effective and binding on
 them  if (1) all of such  agreements  are  approved  by a  final  order  of the
 Bankruptcy  Court  acceptable  in  form  and  substance  to  Customer,  and (2)
 INSpire's  rejection  of  the  Policy  Administration   Agreement,  the  Claims
 Administration  Services  Agreement  and the  Claims  Management  Agreement  is
 approved  by a final  order  of the  Bankruptcy  Court  acceptable  in form and
 substance to Customer.

                             STATEMENT OF AGREEMENT

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the  promises  and  the  mutual
agreements,  covenants,   representations  and  warranties  set  forth  in  this
Agreement and for other good, valid and binding  consideration,  the receipt and
sufficiency  of which are hereby  acknowledged,  the  Parties,  intending  to be
legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

                                       2
<PAGE>

                                    ARTICLE I
                              SERVICES; TERM; FEES

         Section 1.1  Services.  Effective  on the later of Signing  Date or the
date that this Agreement is approved by final order of the  Bankruptcy  Court as
provided  for herein  (the  "Effective  Date")  and during the Term (as  defined
below),  INSpire  will  provide  the  services  set forth on  Schedule  1.1 (the
"Services"),  to  Customer  upon the  terms  and  conditions  set  forth in this
Agreement.  In addition to the  Services,  INSpire will provide to Customer such
other administration services as Customer may reasonably request in writing from
time to time  during the Term and with  respect to which the  Parties  will have
agreed  regarding  the scope,  nature and pricing of such  services and the time
period during which such services will be provided (the "Additional  Services").
During the Term of this  Agreement,  Customer may assume certain of the Services
from  INSpire  upon terms and  conditions  which are  mutually-agreeable  to the
Parties and, with respect to such transferred services,  the Parties have agreed
that INSpire's costs associated with such services (the "Transferred  Services")
shall be borne by Customer and then offset against the Services Fee as set forth
in  Section  1.4(a).  Such  transfer  shall be  executed  only  through a signed
addendum to this Agreement.

          Section 1.2      Implementation Fee; Term.

                  (a)  Implementation   Fee.  On  the  Effective  Date  of  this
Agreement,  Customer  will  pay to  INSpire  a  one-time  Implementation  Fee of
$350,000.

                  (b) Term.  The term  during  which  INSpire  will  provide the
Services to Customer  will  commence  on the  Effective  Date and will expire on
December  31,  2008 (the  "Expiration  Date"),  unless  extended  or  terminated
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the "Term").  The Expiration  Date will
be extended  automatically  for a period of one year unless  either  Party gives
written notice of  non-extension to the other Party at least six months prior to
the then current Expiration Date.

          Section 1.3     Services Fee, Quarterly Minimums and Related Expenses.

                   (a)  Services  Fee.  During  the Term,  Customer  will pay to
INSpire for the  performance of the Services a fee which will be payable monthly
and calculated by multiplying  (i) the amount of Written  Premium  recognized by
Customer that is subject to the Services in the immediately  preceding month, by
(ii) 7.4% until  December  31,  2003,  and then 6.9% from  January 1, 2004 until
December 31, 2008 (the  "Services  Fee").  For the  purposes of this  Agreement,
"Written  Premium" will mean the aggregate amount of personal  property premiums
paid to Customer by insureds  during a  particular  time period for the personal
property products and carriers and in the authorized states included on Schedule
1.1.  The Services Fee will be due and payable in arrears on the last day of the
month  following  the close of the  calendar  month in which the  Services  were
performed.

                                       3
<PAGE>

                  (b) Quarterly  Minimums.  During each calendar  quarter of the
Term,  the Services Fee payable each month will not be less than an amount equal
to 80% of the  average  monthly  Services  Fee  paid  in the  immediately  prior
calendar quarter (the "Quarterly Minimum").

                  (c) Unanticipated  and Increased  Service Level Changes.  Each
Party agrees to negotiate in good faith for an adjustment to the Services Fee in
the  event  of any  statutory,  regulatory  or  judicial  changes  that  require
additional activities not then provided for pursuant to this Agreement.

                  (d) Taxes.  Customer  will pay all tariffs and taxes,  however
designated or levied,  now existing or imposed in the future that are applicable
to the Services or the Services  Fees.  Such tariffs and taxes include state and
local privilege and excise taxes, sales, use and personal property taxes and any
other  tariff  or tax  based on  Services  performed,  equipment  used,  and the
communication or storage of data.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,  Customer will
not be  responsible  for, and INSpire will pay (i) any franchise or income taxes
based upon the income of INSpire,  (ii) any personal  property or similar  taxes
based upon the personal or real property  owned or leased by INSpire and used in
the performance of the Services,  and (iii) Texas state sales taxes payable as a
result of the  Implementation  Fee and Services  Fees due to INSpire  under this
Agreement;  provided, however, that (1) the maximum annual Texas state sales tax
base (the amount on which Texas  state  sales taxes are  calculated)  payable by
INSpire on the Services Fees will not exceed the product of $5,000,000 of Earned
Income multiplied by the then effective  Services Fee, and (2) Customer will pay
the excess of such maximum amount.

                  (e) Service Level Penalty  Payment.  During the Term,  INSpire
will pay to Customer the penalty  payments set forth in Schedule 1.3(e) attached
to this  Agreement  for  INSpire's  failure to achieve  the  Service  Levels (as
defined below) during the specified time period (the "Service Level Penalties").
Payment of such Service Level  Penalties will not in any way limit,  restrict or
relieve  any Party for any breach of this  Agreement.  Service  Level  Penalties
shall not in the aggregate  exceed 15% of the Services Fee payable in any month.
INSpire will pay the Service Level Penalties to Customer within thirty (30) days
of the  close  of the  time  period  during  which  the  penalty  payments  were
calculated or, alternatively,  Customer may offset, upon thirty (30) days notice
to INSpire,  the Service Level  Penalties  owed by INSpire  against the Services
Fees  payable by Customer to INSpire.  In the event that INSpire  believes  that
Service Level Penalties have been improperly  offset by Customer,  INSpire shall
have  full  recourse  to all  remedies  provided  for  in  Article  VII of  this
Agreement.

                  (f) Penalty  Identification.  Penalties will be identified via
system  reports,  where  available,  or via audit by  Customer.  Audits shall be
conducted  quarterly  or monthly,  at  Customer's  option,  upon 10 days written
notice to INSpire and will consist of a review of a sample size of  transactions
constituting  at least 10% of the universe of  applicable  transactions  for the
specified audit period. Audit results will be considered by Customer and INSpire
to be  applicable to 100% of the universe of  applicable  transactions  for that
specified audit period for the purposes of calculating Penalties only if Service
Levels are not met in more than 95% of the files audited.

                                       4
<PAGE>

                  (g) Acts Beyond Control. If an event described in Section 8.14
of this Agreement  [Force Majeure  clause] impacts  INSpire's  ability to meet a
Service  Level,  then  INSpire  will not be  penalized  for failing to meet that
Service  Level to the extent that such event has affected  INSpire's  ability to
meet its obligations.

         Section 1.4       Payment.

                  (a)  Interest  on Past  Due  Payments.  Any  sum  due  INSpire
pursuant to this  Agreement that is not paid by the date on which payment is due
shall bear interest from that date until the date such sum is paid at the lesser
of 1.5% per month or the maximum  rate of interest  allowed by  applicable  law.
Customer will also pay INSpire for any reasonable expenses, including attorneys'
fees, incurred by INSpire in the collection of any amounts due and payable under
this Agreement.

                  (b) Electronic  Funds Transfer.  INSpire will provide Customer
bank routing  information.  All payments are to be via Electronic Funds Transfer
(EFT),  unless  otherwise  agreed to in writing by the  parties,  to the account
specified in writing by INSpire.

                  (c) Payment of Undisputed  Amounts. In the event that there is
an amount in dispute,  Customer is still obligated to pay all undisputed amounts
on all invoices.

Professional  Services  Agreement;   Asset  Purchase  Agreement,   Comprehensive
Preferred Escrow Agreement, and Claims Administration Agreement.

INSpire will  maintain (a) records of amounts  billable to and payments  made on
behalf of Customer,  and (b) copies of all  policies,  applications,  documents,
records and correspondence  relating to such policies.  INSpire will not destroy
these  records and  documents  without the written  permission of Customer for a
period of five years from the loss or termination date of the applicable policy,
or the period  specified by the applicable  state or federal statute  regulating
preservation  of records,  whichever is longer.  INSpire may, at its discretion,
use magnetic, optical, and other types of technology to store such data. INSpire
agrees to provide to Customer reasonable supporting  documentation regarding any
disputed invoice or claim amount within 15 days after Customer  provides written
notification  of the dispute to INSpire.  INSpire agrees that it will backup all
Customer data each month for the Term. Customer may obtain a copy of backup data
at any time upon reasonable notice to INSpire.

         Section 2.7 Ultimate  Discretion.  INSpire acknowledges and agrees that

be  administered  by INSpire,  will at all times have ultimate  discretion  with
respect to all matters pertaining to such policies.

         Section 2.8 Mail  Received  After  Closing.  On and after the Effective
Date,  INSpire may receive and open all mail addressed to Customer and deal with
the  contents  thereof in its  discretion  to the extent  that such mail and the

to be delivered to Customer all mail  received by INSpire  which is addressed to
Customer and does not relate to the Services.

         Section 2.9 Insurance.  During the Term,  INSpire will maintain  errors
and omissions insurance under a current and paid up policy,  effective as of the
Effective Date, issued by an insurer  reasonably  acceptable to Customer,  which
insurance  will have a policy limit of no less than  $5,000,000 and a deductible
no greater  than  $250,000.  If INSpire  fails to maintain  coverage or incurs a
lapse in coverage, Customer may purchase tail coverage (at INSpire's expense) in
the amount  set forth  herein.  INSpire  will  provide a copy of said  insurance
policy to Customer and annually  provide to Customer a certificate  of insurance
issued by INSpire's  carrier.  Customer will be named as an  additional  insured
under INSpire's errors and omissions insurance policy.

Receiving  Party shall be informed by the  Receiving  Party of the  confidential
nature of such information and the covenant of  confidentiality by the Receiving

information  confidentially  Before  any  disclosure  or  dissemination  of  any
Confidential  Information subject to this Agreement is made to any person, other
than an officer or director of the Receiving Party or its counsel or independent
accountant, the Receiving Party shall provide the person to whom such disclosure
is made with a copy of this Agreement.

         Section 3.3 No  Solicitation.  Each Party agrees that without the other
Party's prior written consent, neither such Party nor any of its affiliates will
solicit for employment, employ or otherwise contract for or solicit the services
of any person who is now employed by the other  Party,  for a period of one year
from the Effective Date, provided that this paragraph shall not apply to general
commercially  published  solicitations  for  employment  by a Party or responses

protective  order  and/or  waive  the  Receiving  Party's  compliance  with  the
provisions of this  Agreement.  If, in the absence of a protective  order or the
receipt of a waiver hereunder,  the Receiving Party or its  Representatives  are
nonetheless, in the opinion of the Receiving Party's attorneys, legally required

Confidential  Information.  At the Disclosing  Party's  request,  all documents,
memoranda,  notes and other such writings prepared by the Receiving Party or its
Representatives  based on the information in the  Confidential  Information,  or

writing to the Disclosing Party by an authorized  officer of the Receiving Party

          Section 3.6 Remedies for Breach. The Parties acknowledge that a breach
of the covenant of  confidentiality  contained in this  Agreement  may result in
irreparable and continuing  damage to the Disclosing  Party for which there will
be no adequate remedy at law. In the event of any breach of this Agreement,  the
Receiving  Party agrees that the Disclosing  Party shall be entitled to seek and
obtain specific performance of this Agreement by the Receiving Party, including,
upon  making the  requisite  showing  that it is entitled  thereto,  provisional
injunctive  relief  restraining the Receiving Party from committing such breach,
in addition to such other and further relief,  including  monetary  damages,  as
provided by law.

of  any  proprietary  computer  software  programs  in  the  performance  of the
Services,  neither this Agreement nor the performance of any Services  hereunder

INSpire's computer software programs. Further, this Agreement grants to Customer
no right to possess or reproduce,  or any other interest in, any of the computer
software  programs used in the performance of all or any part of the Services or
their  specifications  in any tangible or  intangible  medium.  Customer may not
mortgage,  hypothecate,  sell,  assign,  pledge,  lease,  transfer,  license  or
sublicense any computer  software programs used in the performance of all or any
part of the  Services,  nor allow any  person  or  entity to  transmit,  copy or
reproduce any such computer software programs.  In the event Customer comes into
possession of the computer  software  programs used in the performance of all or
any part of the Services,  Customer will  immediately  notify INSpire and return
such computer software programs and all copies of any kind thereof to INSpire.

         Section 4.2  Nondisclosure.  Other than  Customer's  employees who need
access to  computer  software  programs  for the  performance  of their  duties,
Customer covenants and agrees not to disclose or otherwise make available to any
person any computer software programs used in the performance of all or any part
of the  Services.  Customer  agrees to take all  reasonable  steps  necessary to
obligate each of its  employees  who is given access to such  computer  software
programs to a level of care sufficient to protect the computer software programs
from unauthorized disclosure.

         Section 4.3     Survival.  THE  OBLIGATION  OF THE  PARTIES  UNDER THIS
ARTICLE  AND  ARTICLE  III WILL  CONTINUE  AFTER  THIS  AGREEMENT  EXPIRES OR IS
TERMINATED.

         Section 5.1  Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated
prior to the  Expiration Date only as follows:

                  (a) by the  non-breaching  Party  upon a breach  by the  other
Party of its duties or obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that
(i) such  breach  remains  substantially  uncured  within 30 days after  written
notice  specifying such breach is received by the breaching  Party, or (ii) with
respect to a breach  that  cannot be  reasonably  cured  within a 30 day period,
should the defaulting  party fail to proceed within 30 days after written notice
specifying  the breach to commence  curing the default  and  thereafter  fail to
proceed with all reasonable diligence to cure substantially the default;

                  (b) by a Party  in the  event  (i)  the  other  Party  makes a
general  assignment  for the benefit of creditors,  (ii) the other Party files a
voluntary  petition in  bankruptcy or petitions  for  reorganization  or similar

                  (c) by Customer, upon commission by INSpire of fraud, criminal
conduct or willful  violation of an  insurance  statute or  regulation,  if said
conduct by INSpire has a material adverse effect on Customer's ability to engage
in business.  This paragraph does not apply to conduct by INSpire  employees who
are not acting at the direction of INSpire; or

                  (d) by INSpire  if  Customer's  Written  Premium  falls  below
$20,000,000 on an annual basis.

or  termination  of this Agreement:

                                       11
<PAGE>

                  (a) INSpire will  promptly  return to Customer  any  policies,
forms or other  supplies  imprinted  with  Customer's  name,  regardless  of who
incurred  the  cost  for  same as  well as all  files  and  documents  regarding
Customer's policies;

                  (b) INSpire will provide promptly to Customer, without charge,
a  backup  of all  data  files.  Further,  for a  reasonable  fee on a time  and
materials  basis,  INSpire will provide to Customer the  personnel  necessary to
assist with the records  layout and file  structures of the data files such that
these records and data files can be transferred to a new data base designated by
Customer.  In the event that  termination is as a result of a breach by INSpire,
Customer  shall have the right to maintain and process its policies on INSpire's
then current  software systems for a period of up to six months so that Customer
can effect an orderly  transfer  of its  business  to a new  processing  system;
provided that Customer shall pay all third party maintenance,  license and other
fees in order to do so.

                  (c) Such expiration or termination  will not in any way limit,
restrict or relieve any Party of liability for any breach of this Agreement.

                  (d) The automatic stay under the  Bankruptcy  Code will not in
any way limit or restrict  Customer from  exercising its rights or remedies upon
expiration or termination of this Agreement.

                      REMEDIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

         Section 6.1       Indemnification of the Parties.

                  (a) Each Party (the "Indemnitor") will indemnify,  defend, and
hold  harmless  the  other  Party  (the   "Indemnitee")  from  and  against  any
arbitration award,  claim,  cost,  damage,  demand,  expense,  fine,  liability,
lawsuit,  obligation,  payment,  or  penalty  of any kind or nature  whatsoever,
including any reasonable  attorneys'  fees and expenses (a "Claim")  incurred by
the  Indemnitee  that  arises out of or  directly  relates  to the  Indemnitor's
performance  or breach of this  Agreement.  Upon an  Indemnitee's  request,  the
Indemnitor  will  indemnify the  Indemnitee's  directors,  employees,  officers,
agents,  attorneys,  representatives and shareholders to the same extent as such
Indemnitee.  No such person,  however,  will be a third party beneficiary of the
indemnification  provision  set forth in this  Agreement.  To the extent  that a
Indemnitee  requests the Indemnitor to indemnify  such party's  representatives,
the Indemnitee will cause its representatives to comply with the indemnification
provisions  and  abide  by the  indemnification  limitations  set  forth in this
Agreement.

                  (b) Customer hereby fully and irrevocably waives, releases and
discharges all existing and potential claims, awards, costs, demands,  expenses,
liabilities,  fines,  balances,  payments,  demands  for  payment or rights that
Customer may have against INSpire,  which in any way relate to or arise from the
services rendered by INSpire under the Policy Administration  Agreement,  except
for claims for  indemnification  arising from  INSpire's  negligent  handling of

                                       12
<PAGE>

Customer's  policy  processing  services  prior  to the  Effective  Date of this
Agreement.  INSpire hereby fully and irrevocably waives, releases and discharges
all  existing  and  potential  claims,   awards,   costs,   demands,   expenses,
liabilities,  fines, balances,  payments,  demands for payment or rights INSpire
may have against Customer, which in any way relate to or arise from the services
rendered by INSpire under the Policy  Administration  Agreement,  except for (i)
claims for indemnification arising from Customer's negligent handling of its own
policy processing  services on or after the Effective Date of this Agreement and
(ii) any amounts owed to INSpire pursuant to the Policy Administration Agreement
for services  rendered by INSpire from April 1, 2002 until the  Effective  Date.
INSpire will  indemnify,  defend and hold Customer  harmless from  liability for
negligent  policy  processing  services prior to the Effective Date,  unless the
policy  processing  was in  compliance  with the  direction  of  Customer or the
carrier.  Customer  will  indemnify,   defend  and  hold  INSpire  harmless  for
Customer's  negligent  policy  processing,  unless the policy  processing was in
compliance with the direction of the carrier.

         Section 6.2  Limitations  of Liability.  INSpire will not be liable for
any damages or indemnification  under this Agreement arising out of any handling
of any claims  under  Customer's  policies  where bad faith is alleged (the "Bad
Faith  Claims"),  (a) except to the extent such Bad Faith Claim arises out of or
is  directly  related  to  INSpire's  negligence,  gross  negligence  or willful
misconduct in the performance of the Services;  provided,  however, that INSpire
will have no liability  hereunder in connection with any action,  or any failure
to take an action,  taken at the direction of Customer,  (b) until the amount of
the aggregate of all Bad Faith Claims for damages and  indemnification for which
INSpire  would  otherwise  be  responsible  exceeds  $50,000  in any  particular
calendar year (the  "Deductible")  and then INSpire will only be responsible for
the amount in excess of the Deductible, and (c) to the extent that the aggregate
amount of such Bad Faith Claims exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate.

         Section   6.3   Limitation   Acknowledgement.   Each  Party   expressly
acknowledges  that the  limitations  set forth in this Article VI represent  the
express agreement of the Parties with respect to the allocation of risks between
the Parties,  including the level of risk to be associated  with the performance
of the  Services as related to the amount of the  payments to be made to INSpire
for such Services, and each party fully understands and irrevocably accepts such
limitations.

         Section  6.4 Notice of Claim.  Any award of damages or  indemnification
pursuant to this Agreement is conditioned  upon the Indemnitor  having  received
full and prompt notice in writing of the Claim and the  Indemnitee  allowing the
Indemnitor to fully direct the defense or  settlement  of such Claim;  provided,
however,  that the failure to receive  prompt notice  relieves the Indemnitor of
its  obligations  under  this  Article  only  if the  Indemnitor  is  materially
prejudiced  by the failure to receive such notice.  The  Indemnitor  will not be
responsible for any settlement or compromise made without its consent.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                       ARBITRATION AND EQUITABLE REMEDIES

         Section 7.1 Settlement Meeting.  The Parties will attempt in good faith
to resolve  promptly through  negotiations any dispute under this Agreement.  If
any such dispute should arise, the Parties will meet at least once to attempt to
resolve the matter (the "Settlement  Meeting").  Any Party may request the other
Parties  to attend a  Settlement  Meeting at a  mutually  agreed  time and place
within ten days after  delivery of a notice of a dispute.  The  occurrence  of a
Settlement  Meeting with  respect to a dispute will be a condition  precedent to
seeking any arbitration or judicial remedy,  provided that if a Party refuses to
attend a Settlement Meeting the other Parties may proceed to seek such remedy.

         Section 7.2 Arbitration Proceedings. If the Parties have not resolved a
monetary  dispute at the  Settlement  Meeting any Party may submit the matter to
arbitration.   A  panel  of  three  arbitrators  will  conduct  the  arbitration
proceedings in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Arbitration Act (99
U.S.C.  Section 1 et seq.) and the Commercial  Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association (the "Arbitration Rules"). The decision of a majority of
the panel will be the decision of the arbitrators.

                  (a)  Arbitration  Notice.  To  submit a  monetary  dispute  to
arbitration, a Party will furnish the other Parties and the American Arbitration
Association with a notice (the "Arbitration Notice") containing (i) the name and
address of such Party,  (ii) the nature of the  monetary  dispute in  reasonable
detail, (iii) the Party's intent to commence arbitration  proceedings under this
Agreement, and (iv) the other information required under the Federal Arbitration
Act and the Arbitration Rules.

                  (b) Selection of  Arbitrators.  Within ten days after delivery
of the Arbitration  Notice,  each Party will select one arbitrator from the list
of  the  American  Arbitration   Association's   National  Panel  of  Commercial
Arbitrators.  Within  ten days  after  the  selection  of the last of those  two
arbitrators,  those two arbitrators  will select the third  arbitrator from such
list. If the first two arbitrators  cannot select a third arbitrator within such
ten-day  period,  the American  Arbitration  Association  will select such third
arbitrator  from the list.  Each arbitrator will be an individual not subject to
disqualification  under Rule No. 19 of the Arbitration  Rules with experience in
settling complex litigation involving the insurance industry.

                  (c)  Arbitration  Final.  The  arbitration  of the  matters in
controversy and the  determination  of any amount of damages or  indemnification
will be final and binding  upon the Parties to the maximum  extent  permitted by
law,  provided that any Party may seek any equitable  remedy available under Law
as provided in this Agreement. This agreement to arbitrate is irrevocable.

         Section 7.3 Place of Arbitration.  Any arbitration  proceedings will be
conducted at such neutral location outside of the States of California and Texas
as the Parties  may agree.  If a neutral  location  cannot be agreed upon by the
parties,  then the  arbitration  proceedings  will be held in  Albuquerque,  New

                                       14
<PAGE>

Mexico.  The arbitrators  will hold the arbitration  proceedings  within 60 days
after the selection of the third arbitrator.

         Section 7.4 Discovery.  During the period  beginning with the selection
of the third  arbitrator  and  ending  upon the  conclusion  of the  arbitration
proceedings,  the  arbitrators  will have the authority to permit the Parties to
conduct such discovery as the arbitrators consider appropriate.

         Section 7.5 Equitable Remedies.  Notwithstanding  anything else in this
Agreement to the contrary, after the Settlement Meeting a Party will be entitled
to seek any equitable  remedies available under law. Any such equitable remedies
will be in addition to any damages or indemnification rights that such Party may
assert in an arbitration proceeding.

         Section 7.6 Judgments.  Any arbitration award under this Agreement will
be final and binding.  Any court having  jurisdiction may enter judgment on such
arbitration award upon application of a Party.

         Section 7.7 Expenses. If any Party commences arbitration proceedings or
court proceedings  seeking equitable relief with respect to this Agreement,  the
prevailing Party in such arbitration  proceedings or case may receive as part of
any award or judgment  reimbursement of such Party's reasonable  attorneys' fees
and expenses to the extent that the arbitrators or court considers appropriate.

         Section 7.8 Cost of the  Arbitration.  The arbitrators  will assess the
costs of the  arbitration  proceedings,  including their fees, to the Parties in
such proportions as the arbitrators consider reasonable under the circumstances.

         Section 7.9  Exclusivity of Remedies.  To the extent  permitted by law,
the  arbitration  and  judicial  remedies  set forth in this Article will be the
exclusive  remedies  available to the Parties with respect to any dispute  under
this Agreement or claim for damages or indemnification under this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

         Section 8.1 Amendment. No amendment of this Agreement will be effective
unless in writing signed by the Parties.

         Section 8.2 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts,  each of which will be deemed to be an original agreement,  but
all of which will constitute one and the same agreement.

         Section 8.3 Entire  Agreement.  This Agreement  constitutes  the entire
agreement  and  understanding  between  the  Parties  and  supersedes  all prior
agreements  and  understandings,  both  written  and oral,  with  respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement.

         Section 8.4   Expenses. Each Party will bear its own  expenses  with
respect to the  negotiation  and preparation of this Agreement.

         Section 8.5 No Assignment. No Party may assign its benefits or delegate
its duties under this  Agreement  without the prior  consent of the other Party.
Any attempted  assignment or delegation without such prior consent will be void.
