[20__] Time-Based Award for Directors 

THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of
[                    ], between Assurant, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and
[                    ] (the “Participant”). 

In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants made herein and the mutual benefits to be derived herefrom, the parties hereto
agree as follows: 
 1. Grant, Vesting and Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. (a) Grant. Subject to
the provisions of this Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) and the provisions of the Assurant, Inc. Long Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Company hereby grants to the Participant, as of
[                    ] (the “Grant Date”),
[            ] Restricted Stock Units (the “Restricted Stock Units”), each with respect to one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per Share
(“Common Stock”). All capitalized terms used herein, to the extent not defined, shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 

(b) Vesting during the Restriction Period. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units
shall vest and shall no longer be subject to any restriction in three substantially equal annual installments (each, an “Installment”), with each Installment to vest on the date immediately preceding the date of the relevant annual
meeting of the Company’s stockholders (each such annual meeting, an “Annual Meeting”) as set forth below: 
  

			
	 Vesting Dates

(with respect to Annual Meetings)
	  	Portion
of
Restricted Stock Units Vesting
(Installments)
	 Date immediately preceding date of [            ] Annual
Meeting
	  	1/3
	 Date immediately preceding date of [            ] Annual
Meeting
	  	1/3
	 Date immediately preceding date of [            ] Annual
Meeting
	  	1/3

 provided, however that
if an Annual Meeting has not occurred during the period commencing on January 1 and ending on June 31 of the calendar year in which such Annual Meeting is expected to occur, the Installment that would otherwise have vested on the date
immediately preceding the date of such Annual Meeting shall instead vest on July 1 of such calendar year. 

(c) Forfeiture; Termination of Employment. Upon the Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason other than
death or Disability during the Restriction Period, all Restricted Stock Units still subject to restriction shall be forfeited. Upon the Participant’s Termination of Employment during the Restriction Period due to death or Disability, the
Participant shall vest in, and the Restricted Period shall terminate with respect to, a number of Restricted Stock Units equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the product of (x) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and (y) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months in the Restriction Period from the Grant Date until the date of Termination of Employment (provided that, for this purpose, the month in which the Grant Date occurs shall be
considered a full month) and the denominator of which is the total number of months in the Restriction Period over (B) the number of Restricted Stock Units that previously vested as of the Termination of Employment without respect to this
provision. For purposes of this Agreement, employment with, or the performance of services for, the Company shall include employment with, or the performance of services for, the Company’s Affiliates and its successors. Nothing in this
Agreement or the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or to continue to perform services for the Company or any of its Affiliates, or interfere in any way with the right
of the Company or any such Affiliates to terminate the Participant’s employment or performance of services at any time. 

2. Settlement of Units. As soon as practicable after the date on which the Restriction Period expires, and in no event later
than 30 calendar days after such date, the Company shall deliver to the Participant or his or her personal representative, in book-position or certificate form, one Share that does not bear any restrictive legend for each vested Restricted Stock
Unit. 
 3. Dividend Equivalents. The Participant shall have the right to receive Dividend Equivalents with respect
to Shares underlying Restricted Stock Units that are outstanding under this Agreement. The Dividend Equivalents represent the right to receive an amount equal to the aggregate regular cash dividends that would have been paid to the Participant if
the Participant had been the record owner, on each record date for a cash dividend during the period from the Grant Date through the date on which the applicable Restricted Stock Units are settled, cancelled or forfeited of a number of Shares equal
to the applicable number of 

 
Restricted Stock Units that vest pursuant to this Agreement. The Dividend Equivalents shall be paid, in cash, as soon as practicable, but in no event more than 45 calendar days following, the
applicable record date for each such cash dividend. 
 4. Nontransferability of the Restricted Stock Units. During
the Restriction Period and until such time as the Restricted Stock Units are ultimately settled as provided in Section 2 above, the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares covered by the Restricted Stock Units shall not be transferable by the
Participant by means of sale, assignment, exchange, encumbrance, pledge, hedge or otherwise. Any purported or attempted transfer of such Shares or such rights shall be null and void. 

5. Rights as a Stockholder. During the Restriction Period, the Participant shall not be entitled to any rights of a
stockholder with respect to the Restricted Stock Units (including, without limitation, any voting rights). 

6. Adjustment; Change of Control. In the event of certain transactions during the Restricted Period, the Restricted Stock
Units shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.4 of the Plan or any applicable successor provision under the Plan. In the event of a Change of Control before the Restricted Stock Units vest, the restrictions applicable to the
Restricted Stock Units shall lapse, such Restricted Stock Units shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested, consistent with Section 9.1 of the Plan, and shall be settled within 5 calendar days following the Change of Control;
provided, however, that any Restricted Stock Units that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” as defined under Section 409A of the Code shall not be settled upon such Change of Control unless the Change of Control
constitutes a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and will instead be settled at such time as specified in Section 2. 

7. Payment of Transfer Taxes, Fees and Other Expenses. The Company agrees to pay any and all original issue taxes and stock
transfer taxes that may be imposed on the issuance of shares received by a Participant in connection with the Restricted Stock Units, together with any and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith.

 8. Taxes and Withholding. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross
income of the Participant for federal, state, local, foreign income, employment or other tax purposes with respect to any Restricted Stock Units, the Participant shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding
the payment of, all federal, state, local and foreign taxes that are required by applicable laws and regulations to be withheld with respect to such amount. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditioned on compliance by
the Participant with this Section 8, and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise due to the Participant, including deducting such amount from the delivery of shares
upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units that gives rise to the withholding requirement. 
 9. Notices. Notices
and other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be given by hand delivery to the other party or by facsimile, overnight courier, or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as
follows: 
 If to the Participant: 

At the most recent address 

on file at the Company. 

If to the Company: 

Assurant, Inc. 

One Chase Manhattan Plaza, 41st Floor 

New York, New York 10005 

Attention: Secretary 

or to such other address or facsimile number as any party shall have furnished to the other in writing in accordance with this Section 9. Notices
and communications shall be effective when actually received by the addressee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant consents to electronic delivery of documents required to be delivered by the Company under the securities laws. 

10. Effect of Agreement. This Agreement is personal to the Participant and, without the prior written consent of the Company,
shall not be assignable by the Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Participant’s legal representatives. This Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. 

 11. Laws Applicable to Construction; Consent to Jurisdiction. The
interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to principles of conflict of laws, as applied to contracts executed in and performed wholly within the State of
Delaware. In addition to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Restricted Stock Units are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which is hereby incorporated by reference. 

12. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement are held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included. 

13. Conflicts and Interpretation. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control.
In the event of any ambiguity in this Agreement, or any matters as to which this Agreement is silent, the Plan shall govern including, without limitation, the provisions thereof pursuant to which the Committee has the power, among others, to
(a) interpret the Plan, (b) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and (c) make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The Participant and the
Company each acknowledges that this Agreement (together with the Plan) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties or either of them, with respect to the subject
matter hereof. 
 14. Amendment. The Company may modify, amend or waive the terms of the Restricted Stock Unit
award, prospectively or retroactively, but no such modification, amendment or waiver shall materially impair the rights of the Participant without his or her consent, except as required by applicable law, stock exchange rules, tax rules or
accounting rules. The waiver by either party of compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this
Agreement. 
 15. Section 409A of the Code. It is the intention of the Company that the Restricted Stock Units
shall either (a) not constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” as defined under Section 409A of the Code or (b) comply in all respects with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations
promulgated thereunder, such that no delivery of Shares pursuant to this Agreement will result in the imposition of taxation or penalties as a consequence of the application of Section 409A of the Code. Shares in respect of any Restricted Stock
Units that (i) constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” as defined under Section 409A of the Code and (ii) vest as a consequence of the Participant’s termination of employment shall not be delivered until the
date that the Participant incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (or, if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder, the date that is six months following the date of such “separation from service”). If the Company determines after the Grant Date that an amendment to this Agreement is necessary to ensure the foregoing,
it may, notwithstanding Section 14, make such an amendment, effective as of the Grant Date or any later date, without the consent of the Participant. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the Plan, in the event that any taxes or
penalties are imposed on the Participant by reason of Section 409A of the Code, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that such taxes or penalties shall be the exclusive obligation of the Participant, and the Company shall have no liability
therefor. 
 16. Headings. The headings of Sections herein are included solely for convenience of reference and
shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 
 17. Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts, which together shall constitute one and the same original. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, as
of the date first above written, the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed on its behalf by a duly authorized officer and the Participant has hereunto set the Participant’s hand.

 Exhibit 10.01 

Restrepo Award Agreement 

STATE AUTO FINANCIAL CORPORATION 

RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 

UNDER THE 

2009 EQUITY INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN 

This Restricted Stock Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of March 4, 2010 (the
“Award Date”). The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of State Auto Financial Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), hereby awards to Robert P. Restrepo, Jr. (“Mr.
Restrepo”) 17,180 common shares, without par value, of the Company (the “Restricted Shares”). The Restricted Shares are awarded pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Compensation Plan
(the “Plan”) and shall be subject to all of the provisions of the Plan, which are hereby incorporated herein by reference, and shall be subject to the following provisions of this Agreement. Capitalized terms used in this
Agreement which are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan. 

§1.    Award of Restricted Shares.    The purchase price for the
Restricted Shares shall be zero. Following the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Mr. Restrepo, the Company shall issue the Restricted Shares in Mr. Restrepo’s name and hold them in a restricted share account with the
Company’s transfer agent. 
 §2.    Forfeiture.    The
Restricted Shares shall be forfeited to the Company if Mr. Restrepo’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason prior to the third anniversary of the Award Date (the “Lapse Date”), or if
Mr. Restrepo violates any provision of this Agreement. 
 §3.    Transfer
Restrictions.    None of the Restricted Shares, nor any beneficial interest therein, shall be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred, voluntarily or involuntarily, prior to the Lapse Date. Thereafter, the Restricted
Shares may be transferred only in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws. Any transfer or attempted transfer in violation of the foregoing restrictions shall be null and void. 

§4.    Acceptance of Award.    The award of the Restricted Shares
must be accepted by Mr. Restrepo within 30 days after the Award Date by executing this Agreement. Mr. Restrepo shall not have any rights with respect to the Restricted Shares awarded under this Agreement unless and until Mr. Restrepo
has executed this Agreement, delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Secretary of the Company, and otherwise complied with the applicable terms and conditions of the award of the Restricted Shares. 

§5.    Rights As Shareholder.    Subject to the terms of this
Agreement, on and after the issuance of the Restricted Shares into the restricted share account, Mr. Restrepo shall have all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Shares, including the right to vote the
Restricted Shares and the right to receive any dividends or other distributions with respect to the Restricted Shares, but subject, however, to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any cash
dividends or other cash distributions paid on the Restricted Shares prior to the Lapse Date shall be automatically 

 
reinvested in common shares of the Company (the “Dividend Shares”) pursuant to the terms of the Company’s dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan and shall be
held in an account with Fidelity, or its successor, under Mr. Restrepo’s name. Until the Lapse Date, the Dividend Shares shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in §3, above. However, the Dividend Shares shall not
be subject to any risk of forfeiture. 
 §6.    Escrow of
Shares.    The Restricted Shares shall be held by the Company until the earlier of the Lapse Date or the termination of Mr. Restrepo’s employment with the Company. If the Restricted Shares are forfeited to the
Company under §2, above, then the Company shall cause the Restricted Shares to be transferred to the Company. If the Restricted Shares are not forfeited to the Company, then the Company shall release the restrictions from the Restricted Shares
and re-issue such Shares in accordance with the instructions, if any, of Mr. Restrepo. 

§7.    Tax Consequences.    Mr. Restrepo understands that he
(and not the Company) shall be responsible for his own federal, state, local or foreign tax liability and any of his other tax consequences that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation
filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “83(b) Election”), if he deems it to be appropriate. Mr. Restrepo shall rely solely on the determinations of his tax
advisors or his own determinations, and not on any statements or representations by the Company or any of its agents, with regard to all such tax matters. Mr. Restrepo shall notify the Company in writing if Mr. Restrepo files the 83(b)
Election with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the date of his execution of this Agreement. The Company intends, in the event it does not receive from Mr. Restrepo evidence of the 83(b) Election filing by Mr. Restrepo, to
claim a tax deduction for any amount which would be taxable to Mr. Restrepo in the absence of such an election. If the Company is required to withhold or pay any taxes with respect to the issuance or vesting of the Restricted Shares,
Mr. Restrepo shall pay to the Company the amount of such required withholding or payment promptly following the Company’s request. 

§8.    Compliance with Securities Laws.    No Restricted Shares shall
be deliverable under this Agreement or the Plan except in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations. The Company may require Mr. Restrepo (a) to represent and warrant to and agree with the Company in
writing that Mr. Restrepo is acquiring the Restricted Shares without a view to distribution thereof, and (b) to make such additional representations, warranties and agreements with respect to the investment intent of Mr. Restrepo as
the Company may reasonably request. 

§9.    Vesting.    Notwithstanding the provisions of the Plan or this
Agreement to the contrary, if Mr. Restrepo’s employment with the Company terminates due to death, disability, involuntary termination without cause or a change of control prior to the Lapse Date, the Restricted Shares shall be fully
vested; provided, however, that the Restricted Shares shall not vest prior to the Lapse Date if such death or disability results from a self-inflicted injury or event, while sane or insane. For purposes of this Agreement, “disability” and
involuntary “termination without cause” shall be given the meanings provided in Article IV, sections (A) and (E), respectively, of Mr. Restrepo’s Employment Agreement with the Company and others dated March 1, 2009.
Further, “change of control” shall be given the meaning provided in Section 2(d) of Mr. Restrepo’s Executive Agreement with the Company and others dated March 1, 2009.

other restrictions as the Company may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Company’s common shares are then listed, and any applicable
federal or state securities laws, and the Company may cause a notation to be put on the Restricted Shares to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.
