Letter agreement dated June 25, 2007 re Craig I. DeRoy retirement

 Exhibit 10(a) 
 June 25, 2007 
 Dear Craig: 
 It is with regret that I have learned of your plan to retire. You have been an important member of our executive team and your loss will be felt throughout the organization. I am pleased, however, that you
have agreed to remain a part of the First American team for a number of years through a part-time consulting arrangement. In addition to providing First American with your valued expertise over the term of this arrangement, I believe that this
arrangement will help facilitate the transition of your duties to others in the company. 
 Your retirement will be effective as of
December 31, 2007, and I accept your resignation from your positions at First American and its affiliates as of such date. After you sign this letter, we’ll begin the process of working through the transition your duties. I appreciate
your interest in helping with this process.
 Through your retirement date you will continue to assist me in our property and casualty and
home warranty business units, in pursuing sales efforts directed to the mortgage lender market, in our emerging markets program and in providing direction to the First American compliance program. 
 Your employment as president will continue with your current salary and benefits through your resignation date and you will receive an annual performance
bonus for the 2007 calendar year. Our Compensation Committee will determine the amount of this bonus. We will pay this bonus entirely in cash at the regular time bonuses are paid. To the fullest extent permitted by, and subject to the
limitations in, applicable law and First American’s articles of incorporation and bylaws, First American will continue to defend and indemnify you against any and all third-party claims asserted against you in connection with your employment or
the consulting services. In addition, First American will reimburse you for reasonable travel and business expenses incurred during your consultancy for the company; provided that as a condition to such reimbursement, before incurring travel
and business expenses in excess of $5,000 in any calendar month you will obtain my prior approval. 
 Attached to this agreement are a mutual
general release agreement and a non-compete agreement, both of which include several provisions which provide an important foundation for our ongoing consulting relationship. Provided you sign and deliver (and, in the case of the mutual general
release agreement, do not revoke) the mutual general release and the non-compete agreements between January 1 and 10, 2008, then on such date you will become a consultant to First American. This consulting arrangement will last through
December 31, 2012, and will be conditioned on your compliance with the non-compete agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, if you breach or terminate the non-compete agreement, the consulting arrangement will terminate. 

 As a consultant, you will provide us with such reasonable services as we request. In providing these
services you will dedicate at least 400 hours, but no more than 600 hours, per calendar year. These services will include your continued work on the Clinton Global Initiative, provided that prior to committing any resources of First American or
its affiliates to such organization, you shall obtain the prior approval of the company. When you are providing consulting services you and I will work closely together on matters of strategy and execution. For the services provided we will pay
you $400,000 per year, to be paid in equal amounts on a monthly basis, in arrears. You will be responsible for all your own taxes on this amount, including, but not limited to, self-employment taxes. As a consultant, you will not be eligible
for any First American-provided benefits (though, for the avoidance of doubt, this will not impact any benefits to which you may be entitled as a retiree of First American). You will be permitted to consult with or become employed by other persons
or entities consistent with the terms of this letter and the non-compete agreement signed in connection with this letter. 
 Your employment
and the consulting services shall terminate upon your death, if you are not physically or mentally able or qualified to perform your job or the consulting services for a period of three months in any twelve month period or if you breach any of the
terms of this agreement or for cause (as determined in the reasonable discretion of First American’s Compensation Committee). If death occurs during your consultancy, your estate will receive the full payment for that year. Of course, you may
terminate your employment or the consulting services at any time. Other than the provisions requiring you to serve as an employee or consultant and comply with the non-compete agreement, and requiring us to provide payment for such services, all
other provision of this letter and the mutual general release agreement shall survive the termination of your employment or the consulting services. 
 You acknowledge that all unvested stock options and restricted stock units held by you as of the date your employment ends shall expire and be forfeited and that those stock options which have vested will be
exercisable in accordance with the terms of First American’s 1996 Stock Option Plan. You also acknowledge that as of the date your employment ends you will cease to accrue any additional benefits under the Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan
and your change-in-control agreement will terminate. We agree that, subject to the documents governing applicable First American retirement plans, you are fully vested in your retirement benefits at the level of benefit corresponding to a person of
your age as of the date hereof. Nothing in this letter or any other document attached will affect or result in a reduction, waiver or forfeiture of your benefits or payments as currently provided for in any applicable benefit plans, including, but
not limited to, First American’s pension plan, pension restoration plan or Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan. 
 During your tenure at
First American, you were involved in many important projects, some of which resulted in the creation of valuable and important intellectual property. You hereby sell, assign, transfer and deliver to First American all right, title 

  

 -2- 

 
and interest you have in and to any inventions and intellectual property developed during your employment by First American. You agree to provide a similar
assignment in the future with respect to any inventions and intellectual property developed after the date of this letter, whether as a consultant (to the extent they are developed on behalf of First American or its affiliates) or an employee.

 As promptly as practicable upon our request, you and the Company agree to take all such reasonable action as may be necessary or desirable
in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this letter, including, but not limited to, any further action necessary or desirable to vest First American with full right, title and interest to the assets described in the paragraph
immediately above. In any action to enforce the terms of this letter, the non-compete agreement or the mutual general release agreement the prevailing party will be entitled to recover reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees. This letter, together
with the non-compete agreement and the mutual general release agreement, is binding upon First American and you and upon your heirs, administrators, representatives, executors, successors and assigns and upon First American’s successors and
permitted assigns 
 Thank you again, Craig, for your years of dedicated service to First American. You were instrumental in the success
we have enjoyed over the last decade. I look forward to working with you in your new capacity. 
  

	
	Best wishes,
	
	 /s/ Parker S. Kennedy

 AGREEMENT 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and adequacy of which are acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 
 1. Mutual General Release. As a material inducement to enter into the Letter Agreement and this Agreement, the Company and DeRoy hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit and forever discharge each other, and, with respect to DeRoy’s release of the Company, all of the Company’s current and former subsidiaries, parent companies, affiliates, divisions,
successors, predecessors, related entities, assigns, owners, stockholders, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, attorneys and all persons acting by, through, under or in concert with any of them (collectively, with the
exception of DeRoy, “Company Releasees”), and, with respect to the Company’s release of DeRoy, DeRoy’s spouse and all of his family, heirs, representatives, estate, attorneys, executors, successors and assigns and all
persons acting by, through, under or in concert with any of them (collectively, the “DeRoy Releasees”) from any and all charges, complaints, claims, liabilities, obligations, promises, agreements, damages, actions, causes of action,
suits, rights, demands, costs, losses, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) actually incurred of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected (“Claim” or “Claims”) which

omission that has occurred as of the date of this Agreement. This Agreement shall not apply to, or release any claims arising from or related to: 

 
(a) any of the Company’s or DeRoy’s obligations under the terms of this Agreement, the Letter Agreement or to the non-compete agreement entered

 (a) DeRoy acknowledges and agrees that he has read and understands the terms of this Agreement, and that his release of
claims includes all claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. 
 (b) DeRoy acknowledges that this
Agreement advises him in writing that he may consult with an attorney before executing this Agreement, and that he has obtained 

  

 -2- 

 
and considered such legal counsel as he deems necessary, such that he is entering into this Agreement freely, knowingly and voluntarily. 
 (c) DeRoy acknowledges that he has been given 21 days in which to consider whether or not to enter into this Agreement. DeRoy understands
that, at his option, he may elect not to use the full 21-day period. 
 (d) DeRoy shall have 7 days after signing this
Agreement to revoke this Agreement. This Agreement will not become effective until the expiration of the revocation period. Employee’s revocation of this Agreement must be in writing and received by Kenneth DeGiorgio, General Counsel to the
Company, at fax number (714) 250-3325, no later than 5:00 p.m. on the seventh day in order to be effective. If DeRoy does not revoke acceptance within the 7 day period, this Agreement will become fully effective and enforceable on the eighth
day after the Agreement is signed. 
 (e) DeRoy does not waive or release any rights or claims that he may have under the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act that arise after the execution of this Agreement. DeRoy also is not waiving his right to file a complaint or charge with the EEOC (including a challenge to the validity of this Agreement) or participate in any
investigation or proceeding conducted by the EEOC. 
 4. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Binding Effect. Except as provided herein, this Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies
upon any person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and DeRoy, upon DeRoy’s heirs, administrators, representatives,
executors, successors and assigns and upon the Company’s successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Company Releasees and the DeRoy Releasees. 
 (b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents referred to in this Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement
between the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, to the extent they related in any way to the subject matter hereof. 
 (c) Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned, delegated, transferred, pledged or sold by DeRoy without the prior written
consent of the Company. 
 (d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. 
 (e) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the domestic laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other 

  

 -3- 

 
jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California. 
 (f) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and
signed by the Parties. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant of this Agreement, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or
breach of warranty or covenant of this Agreement or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date.

Extension Effective Date (or, if such replacement occurs thereafter, as of the relevant effective date of such replacement), provide a new or additional Commitment hereunder, as applicable, in the amount specified therein and (if not then an
existing Lender) become a Lender hereunder (and if such replacement shall be made after such Extension Effective Date, the Commitment Termination Date for such Commitment of such Additional Commitment Lender shall be the latest date to which the
Commitments of the other Lenders was extended as of such Extension Effective Date). 
 (c) If (and only if) the total of the
Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed in connection with any Extension Request to extend the Existing Commitment Termination Date and (if applicable) the additional Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lender(s) shall be at least 50% of
the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the relevant Extension Effective Date, then, effective as of such Extension Effective Date, the Commitment Termination Date, but only with respect to the Commitment of each
