and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach, without proof of actual damages, and further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with any such remedy.

covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force

delete specific words or phrases in, or replace any such invalid or unenforceable provision with one that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of such invalid or unenforceable provision, and this Agreement
shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed. 

Section 5.7.    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that this Agreement (and any of the rights, interests or obligations of any party hereunder) may not be assigned by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties
hereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Any purported assignment of a party’s rights under this Agreement in violation of the preceding sentence shall be null and void. 

Section 5.8.    Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement (including any Schedules and Exhibits hereto)
constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and,
except as expressly set forth herein, is not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder. This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument duly executed by the parties hereto or their
respective permitted successors or assigns. 
 Section 5.9.    Headings. The section headings contained in
this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 

Section 5.10.    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to choice of law principles thereof that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. 

Section 5.11.    Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to
the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery or other federal or state courts of the State of Delaware in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it shall not
attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (c) agrees that it shall not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any
court other than the Court of Chancery or other federal or state courts of the State of Delaware, and each of the parties irrevocably waives the right to trial by jury, (d) agrees to waive any bonding requirement under any applicable law, in
the case any other party seeks to enforce the terms by way of equitable relief, and (e) irrevocably consents to service of process by a reputable overnight delivery service, signature requested, to the address of such party’s principal
place of business or as otherwise provided by applicable law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION AND EFFECT, BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED
AND TO BE PERFORMED WHOLLY WITHIN SUCH STATE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CHOICE OF LAW PRINCIPLES OF SUCH STATE. 

 Section 5.12.    Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may
be executed in counterparts, including by facsimile or PDF electronic transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 

Section 5.13.    Further Assurances. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each of
the parties hereto agrees to execute such additional documents, to use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all
things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate or make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

Section 5.14.    Interpretation. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement has been negotiated at
arm’s length and among parties equally sophisticated and knowledgeable in the matters covered hereby. Accordingly, any rule of law or legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against the party that
has drafted it is not applicable and is hereby waived.

(i)         The Enstar Shareholder shall have the right to designate three Directors, who shall initially be Duncan Scott, Orla Gregory and Paul O’Shea (the “Enstar Directors”); and 
(ii)        The Trident Shareholders shall have the right to designate two Directors, who shall initially be Darran Baird and Adam Hamberg (the “Trident Directors”). 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Enstar Director(s) present at any meeting of the Board or committee thereof shall collectively exercise voting power equal to the Enstar Shareholder’s percentage ownership of the Company divided by the aggregate percentage ownership of the Company held by the Initial Shareholders, and the Trident Director(s) present at any meeting of the Board or committee thereof shall collectively exercise voting power equal to the Trident Shareholders’ percentage ownership of the Company divided by the aggregate percentage ownership of the Company held by the Initial Shareholders.  The Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders shall cooperate with each other and use their commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the composition of the Board complies with all Applicable Laws.
(b)        Each Shareholder shall vote all Common Shares over which such Shareholder has voting control and shall take all other necessary or desirable actions within such Shareholder’s control (including in its capacity as shareholder, director, member of a board committee or officer of the Company or otherwise, and whether at a regular or special meeting of the Shareholders or by written consent in lieu of a meeting) to elect to the Board any individual designated by an Initial Shareholder pursuant to Section 2.1(a). 
(c)        Each Initial Shareholder shall have the right at any time to remove (with or without cause) any Director designated by such Initial Shareholder for election to the Board and each other Shareholder shall vote all Common Shares over which such Shareholder has voting control and shall take all other necessary or desirable actions within such Shareholder’s control (including in its capacity as shareholder, director, member of a board committee or officer of the Company or otherwise, and whether at a regular or special meeting of the Shareholders or by written consent in lieu of a meeting) to remove from the Board any individual designated by such Initial Shareholder that such Initial Shareholder desires to remove pursuant to this Section 2.1(c). Except as provided in the preceding sentence, unless an Initial Shareholder shall otherwise consent in writing, no other Shareholder shall take any action to cause the removal of any Director(s) designated by an Initial Shareholder. 
5

(d)       In the event a vacancy is created on the Board at any time and for any reason (whether as a result of death, disability, retirement, resignation or removal pursuant to Section 2.1(c)), the Initial Shareholder who designated such individual shall have the right to designate a different individual to replace such Director and each other Shareholder shall vote all Common Shares over which such Shareholder has voting control and shall take all other necessary or desirable actions within such Shareholder’s control (including in its capacity as shareholder, director, member of a board committee or officer of the Company or otherwise, and whether at a regular or special meeting of the Shareholders or by written consent in lieu of a meeting) to elect to the Board any individual designated by such Initial Shareholder. 
(e)        The Board shall have the right to establish any committee of Directors as the Board shall deem appropriate from time to time. Subject to this Agreement, the Organizational Documents and Applicable Law, committees of the Board shall have the rights, powers and privileges granted to such committee by the Board from time to time. Any delegation of authority to a committee of Directors to take any action must be approved in the same manner as would be required for the Board to approve such action directly. Any committee of Directors shall be composed of the same proportion of Enstar Directors and Trident Directors as the Initial Shareholders shall then be entitled to appoint to the Board pursuant to this Section 2.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall, and the Initial Shareholders shall cause the Board to, establish an asset management committee (the “Asset Management Committee”), which shall oversee the management of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including the selection of asset managers) and which shall be composed of an equal number of Enstar Directors and Trident Directors.  The Board shall not be permitted to limit the duties of the Asset Management Committee or otherwise dissolve such committee, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Trident Directors. 
(f)        The presence of a majority of Directors then in office shall constitute a quorum; provided, that at least one Trident Director is present at such meeting. If a quorum is not achieved at any duly called meeting, such meeting may be postponed to a time no earlier than 48 hours after written notice of such postponement has been given to the Directors. If no Trident Director is present for three consecutive meetings, then the presence, in person or by proxy, of Directors designated by Shareholders holding at least 51% of the Common Shares shall constitute a quorum for the next meeting. 
Section 2.2   Voting Arrangements. In addition to any vote or consent of the Board or the Shareholders of the Company required by Applicable Law and other than with respect to the Excluded Transactions, the Company shall not without the consent of the Trident Shareholders take any action or enter into any commitment to take any action to (and shall cause its Material Subsidiaries to not take any action or enter into any commitment to take any action to):

Each time the Offering Shareholder proposes to Transfer any Offered Shares (other than Transfers permitted pursuant to Section 3.1(b)), the Offering Shareholder shall first make an offering of the Offered Shares to the Initial Shareholders (other than itself, as applicable) in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 3.2. 
(b)        The Offering Shareholder shall give written notice (the “Offering Shareholder Notice”) to the Company and the Initial Shareholders (other than itself, as applicable) stating its bona fide intention to Transfer the Offered Shares and specifying the number of Offered Shares and the material terms and conditions, including the price, pursuant to which the Offering Shareholder proposes to Transfer the Offered Shares. The Offering Shareholder Notice shall constitute the Offering Shareholder’s offer to Transfer the Offered Shares to such Initial Shareholders, which offer shall be irrevocable for a period of 20 Business Days (the “ROFO Notice Period”). 
(c)        By delivering the Offering Shareholder Notice, the Offering Shareholder represents and warrants to the Company and to each Initial Shareholder receiving such notice that: (i) the Offering Shareholder has full right, title and interest in and to the Offered Shares; (ii) the Offering Shareholder has all the necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to Transfer such Offered Shares as contemplated by this Section 3.2; and (iii) the Offered Shares are free and clear of any and all Liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement. 
(d)       Upon receipt of the Offering Shareholder Notice, each Initial Shareholder receiving such notice shall have until the end of the ROFO Notice Period to elect to purchase any amount of the Offered Shares by delivering a written notice (a “ROFO Notice”) to the Offering Shareholder and the Company stating that it agrees to purchase such specified amount of Offered Shares on the terms specified in the Offering Shareholder Notice. Any ROFO Notice shall be binding upon delivery and irrevocable by the applicable Initial Shareholder. Each Initial Shareholder that delivers a ROFO Notice shall be a “Purchasing Shareholder.” If the Trident Shareholder is a Purchasing Shareholder, then at the same time as the Trident Shareholder delivers a ROFO Notice to the Company it shall also deliver a copy of such notice to each Dowling Shareholder whereupon each Dowling Shareholder shall be entitled upon written notice to the Offering Shareholder, the Company and the Trident Shareholder within ten (10) Business Days after the end of the ROFO Notice Period (the “Extended ROFO Notice Period”) to participate in such right of first offer under this Section 3.2 as if it were an Initial Shareholder in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Section 3.2 (and references to the Purchasing Shareholder and the Initial Shareholder for the purposes of this Section 3.2 shall be construed accordingly). If the Initial Shareholders do not, in the aggregate, elect to purchase all of the Offered Shares by the end of the ROFO Notice Period or the Extended ROFO Notice Period (as the case may be), each Purchasing Shareholder shall then have the right to purchase all or any portion of the remaining Offered Shares not elected to be purchased by the Initial Shareholders. As promptly as practicable following the ROFO Notice Period or the Extended ROFO Notice Period (as the case may be), the Offering Shareholder shall deliver a written notice to each Purchasing Shareholder stating the number of remaining Offered Shares available for purchase. For a period of 10 Business Days following the receipt of such notice, each Purchasing Shareholder shall have the right to elect to purchase all or any portion of the remaining Offered Shares by delivering a subsequent ROFO Notice specifying the number of additional Offered Shares it desires to purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Initial Shareholders may only exercise their rights under this Section 3.2 to purchase the Offered Shares if, after giving effect to all elections made under this Section 3.2(d), no less than all of the Offered Shares will be purchased by

the Purchasing Shareholders. If the Purchasing Shareholders elect to purchase an amount of Shares that exceeds the amount of Offered Shares, then each Purchasing Shareholder’s right to purchase the Offered Shares shall be limited to an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the aggregate number of Offered Shares the Purchasing Shareholder proposes to buy as stated in the ROFO Notice and (y) the product of the aggregate number of Offered Shares multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the number of Common Shares then held by the Purchasing Shareholder and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the number of shares then held by all of the Purchasing Shareholders; provided, that if the application of the foregoing formula results in less than all the Offered Shares being allocated to the Purchasing Shareholders, the remaining Offered Shares shall be allocated among the Purchasing Shareholders who received less than the number of Offered Shares they proposed to buy as stated in their ROFO Notice by successive application of the foregoing formula to the aggregate number of unallocated Offered Shares mutatis mutandis, including adjusting clause (x) of the formula as necessary to reflect the number of Offered Shares previously allocated to each such Purchasing Shareholder and the removal from clause (y)(B) of the formula of any Common Shares held by any Purchasing Shareholder previously allocated all of the Offered Shares they proposed to buy as stated in their ROFO Notice. 
(e)        If an Initial Shareholder does not deliver a ROFO Notice during the ROFO Notice Period or any Dowling Shareholder does not deliver a ROFO Notice during the Extended ROFO Notice Period, then such Initial Shareholder or Dowling Shareholder (as the case may be) shall be deemed to have waived all of such Shareholder’s rights to purchase the Offered Shares under this Section 3.2. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Trident Shareholder does not deliver a ROFO Notice during the ROFO Notice Period, then no Dowling Shareholder shall be entitled to participate in the right of first offer hereunder and shall not be deemed to be a Purchasing Shareholder or an Initial Shareholder for the purposes of this Section 3.2. 
(f)        If no Initial Shareholder delivers a ROFO Notice or if the Purchasing Shareholders elect to purchase less than all of the Offered Shares in accordance with Section 3.2(d), the Offering Shareholder may, during the 180-day period immediately following the expiration of the ROFO Notice Period, which period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed 270 days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals (the “Waived ROFO Transfer Period”), and subject to the provisions of Section 3.4, Transfer all of the Offered Shares to a Third Party Purchaser on terms and conditions no more favorable to the Third Party Purchaser than those set forth in the Offering Shareholder Notice. If the Offering Shareholder does not consummate the Transfer of the Offered Shares within the Waived ROFO Transfer Period, the rights provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and the Offered Shares shall not be offered or sold to any Person unless first re-offered to the Initial Shareholders (other than itself, as applicable) in accordance with this Section 3.2. 
(g)        Each Shareholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate any Transfer contemplated by this Section 3.2, including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed necessary or appropriate. 
(h)        At the closing of any Transfer pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Offering Shareholder shall deliver to the Purchasing Shareholders the certificate or certificates representing the Offered Shares to be sold (if any), accompanied by stock powers and all necessary stock transfer taxes paid and stamps affixed, if necessary, against receipt of the purchase price therefor from such Purchasing Shareholders by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds. 
Section 3.3   Drag-along Right.
(a)        If at any time the Enstar Shareholder (together with its Permitted Transferees) holds no less than 55% of the aggregate number of outstanding Common Shares of the Company held by the Initial Shareholders at such time and receives a bona fide offer from a Third Party Purchaser to consummate, in one transaction, or a series of related transactions, a Change of Control (a “Drag-along Sale”), the Enstar Shareholder shall have the right to require that each other Shareholder (each, a “Drag-along Shareholder”) participate in such Transfer in the manner set forth in this Section 3.3, provided, however, that no Drag-along Shareholder shall be required to participate in the Drag-along Sale if the consideration for the Drag-along Sale is anything other than cash or registered securities listed on an established U.S. or foreign securities exchange. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this 
10

Agreement, each Drag-along Shareholder shall vote in favor of the transaction and take all actions to waive any dissenters, appraisal or other similar rights. 
(b)        The Enstar Shareholder shall exercise its rights pursuant to this Section 3.3 by delivering a written notice (the “Drag-along Notice”) to the Company and each Drag-along Shareholder no later than 20 days prior to the closing date of such Drag-along Sale. The Drag-along Notice shall make reference to the Enstar Shareholder’s rights and obligations hereunder and shall describe in reasonable detail: 
(i)         the number of Common Shares to be sold by the Enstar Shareholder, if the Drag-along Sale is structured as a Transfer of Common Shares; 
(ii)        the identity of the Third Party Purchaser; 
(iii)       the proposed date, time and location of the closing of the Drag-along Sale; 
(iv)       the per share purchase price and the other material terms and conditions of the Transfer, including a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof; and 
(v)        a copy of any form of agreement proposed to be executed in connection therewith.
(c)        If the Drag-along Sale is structured as a Transfer of Common Shares, then, subject to Section 3.3(d), each Drag-along Shareholder shall Transfer the number of shares equal to the product of (x) the number of Common Shares held by such Drag-along Shareholder and (y) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the number of Common Shares the Enstar Shareholder proposes to sell or transfer in the Drag-along Sale and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the number of Common Shares then held by the Enstar Shareholder. 
(d)       The consideration to be received by a Drag-along Shareholder shall be the same form and amount of consideration per share of Common Shares to be received by the Enstar Shareholder (or, if the Enstar Shareholder is given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, the same option shall be given) and the terms and conditions of such Transfer shall, except as otherwise provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, be the same as those upon which the Enstar Shareholder Transfers its Common Shares. Each Drag-along Shareholder shall make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as the Enstar Shareholder makes or provides in connection with the Drag-along Sale (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to the Enstar Shareholder, the Drag-along Shareholder shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to itself); provided, that all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities shall be made by the Enstar Shareholder and each Drag-along Shareholder severally and not jointly and any indemnification obligation shall be pro rata based on the consideration received by the Enstar Shareholder and each Drag-along Shareholder, in each case in an amount not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received by the Enstar Shareholder and each such Drag-along Shareholder in connection with the Drag-along Sale. 
(e)        The fees and expenses of the Enstar Shareholder incurred in connection with a Drag-along Sale and for the benefit of all Shareholders (it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of a Enstar Shareholder for its sole benefit will not be considered to be for the benefit of all Shareholders), to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Company or the Third Party Purchaser, shall be shared by all the Shareholders on a pro rata basis, based on the aggregate consideration received by each Shareholder; provided, that no Shareholder shall be obligated to make or reimburse any out-of-pocket expenditure prior to the consummation of the Drag-along Sale. 
(f)        Each Shareholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Drag-along Sale, including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments, in each case consistent with the agreements being entered into and the certificates being delivered by the Enstar Shareholder. 
11

(g)        The Enstar Shareholder shall have 180 days following the date of the Drag-along Notice in which to consummate the Drag-along Sale, on the terms set forth in the Drag-along Notice (which such 180-day period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed 270 days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals). If at the end of such period, the Enstar Shareholder has not completed the Drag-along Sale, the Enstar Shareholder may not then effect a transaction subject to this Section 3.3 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 3.3. 
Section 3.4   Tag-along Right.
(a)        If at any time a Shareholder (the “Selling Shareholder”) proposes to Transfer any of its Common Shares to a Third Party Purchaser (the “Proposed Transferee”) (and if the Selling Shareholder is the Enstar Shareholder and it cannot or has not elected to exercise its drag-along rights set forth in Section 3.3), each other Shareholder (each, a “Tag-along Shareholder”) shall be permitted to participate in such Transfer (a “Tag-along Sale”) on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.4. 
(b)        Prior to the consummation of any such Transfer of Common Shares described in Section 3.4(a), and after satisfying its obligations pursuant to Section 3.2(a), the Selling Shareholder shall deliver to the Company and each other Shareholder a written notice (a “Sale Notice”) of the proposed Tag-along Sale subject to this Section 3.4 no later than 20 Business Days prior to the closing date of the Tag-along Sale. The Sale Notice shall make reference to the Tag-along Shareholders’ rights hereunder and shall describe in reasonable detail: 
(i)         the aggregate number of Common Shares the Proposed Transferee has offered to purchase;
(ii)        the identity of the Proposed Transferee; 
(iii)       the proposed date, time and location of the closing of the Tag-along Sale; 
(iv)       the per share purchase price and the other material terms and conditions of the Transfer, including a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit the valuation thereof; and 
(v)        a copy of any form of agreement proposed to be executed in connection therewith. 
(c)        Each Tag-along Shareholder shall exercise its right to participate in a Transfer of Common Shares by the Selling Shareholder subject to this Section 3.4 by delivering to the Selling Shareholder a written notice (a “Tag-along Notice”) stating its election to do so and specifying the number of Common Shares to be Transferred by it no later than five Business Days after receipt of the Sale Notice (the “Tag-along Period”). The offer of each Tag-along Shareholder set forth in a Tag-along Notice shall be irrevocable, and, to the extent such offer is accepted, such Tag-along Shareholder shall be bound and obligated to Transfer in the proposed Transfer on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.4. The Selling Shareholder and each Tag-along Shareholder shall have the right to Transfer in a Transfer subject to this Section 3.4 the number of Common Shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of Common Shares the Proposed Transferee proposes to buy as stated in the Sale Notice and (y) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the number of Common Shares then held by the Selling Shareholder or such Tag-along Shareholder, as the case may be, and (B) the denominator of which is equal to the number of shares then held by the Selling Shareholder and each Tag-along Shareholder. 
(d)       Each Tag-along Shareholder who does not deliver a Tag-along Notice in compliance with Section 3.4(c) above shall be deemed to have waived all of such Tag-along Shareholder’s rights to participate in such Transfer, and the Selling Shareholder shall (subject to the rights of any participating Tag-along Shareholder) thereafter be free to Transfer to the Proposed Transferee its Common Shares at a per share price that is no greater than the per share price set forth in the Sale Notice and on other terms and conditions which are not materially more favorable to the Selling Shareholder than those set forth in the Sale Notice without any further obligation to the non-accepting Tag-along Shareholders. 
12

(e)        Each Tag-along Shareholder participating in a Transfer pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall receive the same consideration per share as the Selling Shareholder after deduction of such Tag-along Shareholder’s proportionate share of the related expenses in accordance with Section 3.4(g) below. 
(f)        Each Tag-along Shareholder shall make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as the Selling Shareholder makes or provides in connection with the Tag-along Sale (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to the Selling Shareholder, the Tag-along Shareholder shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to itself); provided, that all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities shall be made by the Selling Shareholder and each Tag-along Shareholder severally and not jointly and any indemnification obligation in respect of breaches of representations and warranties shall be pro rata based on the consideration received by the Selling Shareholder and each Tag-along Shareholder, in each case in an amount not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received by the Selling Shareholder and each such Tag-along Shareholder in connection with any Tag-along Sale. 
(g)        The fees and expenses of the Selling Shareholder incurred in connection with a Tag-along Sale and for the benefit of all Shareholders (it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of the Selling Shareholder for its sole benefit will not be considered to be for the benefit of all Shareholders), to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Company or the Proposed Transferee, shall be shared by all the Shareholders participating in the Tag-along Sale on a pro rata basis, based on the aggregate consideration received by each such Shareholder; provided, that no Shareholder shall be obligated to make or reimburse any out-of-pocket expenditure prior to the consummation of the Tag-along Sale. 
(h)        Each Tag-along Shareholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Tag-along Sale, including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments, in each case consistent with the agreements being entered into and the certificates being delivered by the Selling Shareholder. 
(i)         The Selling Shareholder shall have 180 days following the expiration of the Tag-along Period in which to Transfer the Common Shares described in the Sale Notice, on the terms set forth in the Sale Notice (which such 180-day period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed 270 days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals). If at the end of such period, the Selling Shareholder has not completed such Transfer, the Selling Shareholder may not then effect a Transfer of Common Shares subject to this Section 3.4 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 3.4. 
(j)         If the Selling Shareholder Transfers to the Proposed Transferee any of its Common Shares in breach of this Section 3.4, then each Tag-along Shareholder shall have the right to Transfer to the Selling Shareholder, and the Selling Shareholder undertakes to purchase from each Tag-along Shareholder, the number of Common Shares that such Tag-along Shareholder would have had the right to Transfer to the Proposed Transferee pursuant to this Section 3.4, for a per share amount and form of consideration and upon the terms and conditions on which the Proposed Transferee bought such Common Shares from the Selling Shareholder, but without indemnity being granted by any Tag-along Shareholder to the Selling Shareholder; provided, that, nothing contained in this Section 3.4 shall preclude any Shareholder from seeking alternative remedies against such Selling Shareholder as a result of its breach of this Section 3.4.
Section 3.5   Enstar Call Right and Trident Put Right.
(a)        Subject to the other terms of this Section 3.5, at any time after March 31, 2023 (the “Call Right Date”), the Enstar Shareholder shall have the right (a “Call Right”) by written notice to the other Shareholders to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Common Shares owned by the other Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees.
(b)        Subject to the other terms of this Section 3.5, at any time after December 31, 2022 (the “Put Right Date”), the Trident Shareholders, acting collectively, shall have the right (the “Put Right”) to require the Enstar Shareholder to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Common Shares 
13

collectively held by the Trident Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees.  In the event that the Trident Shareholders elect to exercise their rights under this Section 3.5(b), then the Trident Shareholders shall give written notice (a “Put Notice”) to the Company, the Enstar Shareholder and the other Shareholders stating their bona fide intention to exercise their Put Right over their Common Shares owned by them. Upon receipt of the Put Notice, each other Shareholder (other than the Enstar Shareholder or the Trident Shareholders) receiving such notice shall have 20 Business Days (the “Put Notice Period”) to elect to participate in such exercise of the Put Right by the Trident Shareholders by delivering a written notice (a “Participation Notice”) to the Company, the Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders requiring the Enstar Shareholder to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Common Shares held, directly or indirectly, by such Shareholder and its Permitted Transferees. Any Participation Notice shall be binding upon delivery and irrevocable by the applicable Shareholder. Each Shareholder that does not deliver a Participation Notice during the Put Notice Period shall be deemed to have waived all of such Shareholder’s rights to participate in the exercise of the Put Right. By delivering a Participation Notice, the relevant Shareholder represents and warrants to the Company and to the Enstar Shareholder that: (i) it has full right, title and interest in and to the Common Shares held by such Shareholder; (ii) it has all the necessary power and authority and has taken all necessary action to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.5(b); and (iii) the Common Shares held by such Shareholder are free and clear of any and all Liens other than those arising as a result of or under the terms of this Agreement.
(c)        The purchase price payable by the Enstar Shareholder upon the exercise of the Call Right or the Put Right, as the case may be, shall be equal to fair market value of the Common Shares held, directly or indirectly, by the relevant Shareholder(s) and their Permitted Transferees which are the subject of the Call Right or the Put Right as exercised pursuant to this Section 3.5 (the “Relevant Shareholder(s)”) calculated based on the overall fair market value of the Company determined based upon the economic book value of the Common Shares (or, to the extent such agreement is reached, such other valuation methodology as agreed upon by the Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders as appropriate for entities in run-off) as between a willing buyer and willing seller with no discount for illiquidity or a minority interest, as such value may be mutually agreed upon by the Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders or, if no such agreement is reached, determined in accordance with the procedures set forth below (the “Fair Market Value”):
(i)         Promptly after determining that the Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders are unable to agree upon a Fair Market Value but, in any event, no later than 30 Business Days after the exercise of the Call Right or the Put Right, as the case may be, the Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders shall appoint a mutually acceptable independent appraiser (the “Independent Appraiser”) to determine the Fair Market Value (determined based upon the economic book value of the Common Shares or, to the extent such agreement is reached, such other valuation methodology as agreed upon by the Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders as appropriate for entities in run-off) as between a willing buyer and a willing seller with no discount for illiquidity or a minority interest of the Common Shares held, directly or indirectly, by the Relevant Shareholder(s) and their Permitted Transferees. Each of (i) the Enstar Shareholder and (ii) the Trident Shareholders (acting together) shall provide the Independent Appraiser with its respective determination of Fair Market Value, together with the supporting calculations and analyses prepared by such Initial Shareholder with respect thereto. The Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders shall instruct the Independent Appraiser to determine, in writing within 30 days of such Independent Appraiser’s appointment, which of the Enstar Shareholder’s and the Trident Shareholders’ determination of Fair Market Value is the more reasonable, and such determination shall be final for all purposes of this Section 3.5. The costs and expenses of the Independent Appraiser shall be borne equally by the Enstar Shareholder and the Trident Shareholders.
(ii)        To enable the Independent Appraiser to conduct the valuation, the Enstar Shareholder, the Relevant Shareholder(s) and the Company shall furnish to the Independent Appraiser such information as the Independent Appraiser may request, including information regarding the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the assets, properties, financial condition, earnings and prospects of the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries.
(d)       Within 90 days after the date of the final determination of the Fair Market Value pursuant to this Section 3.5 (which period shall be extended solely to the extent needed to obtain any 
14

required Government Approvals; provided, that the Shareholders shall, and shall cause their Permitted Transferees to, have used their reasonable best efforts to obtain such approvals in a timely manner; provided, further, that in no event shall the Enstar Shareholder be obligated to pay the purchase price for a sale and purchase pursuant to the Put Right in cash due to any failure to obtain any Government Approvals that are required to permit the Relevant Shareholder(s) to acquire or hold any unrestricted ordinary shares of Enstar), the Relevant Shareholder(s) shall, and shall cause their Permitted Transferees to, sell to the Enstar Shareholder, free and clear of all Liens, all of the Common Shares held by it or them, as applicable.
(e)        Each Shareholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.5, including entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments and consents as may be deemed necessary or appropriate.
(f)        At the closing of any sale and purchase pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Relevant Shareholder(s) shall, and shall cause their Permitted Transferees to, deliver to the Enstar Shareholder the certificate or certificates representing their Common Shares (if any), accompanied by stock powers and all necessary stock transfer taxes paid and stamps affixed, if necessary, against receipt of the purchase price therefor from the Enstar Shareholder by, (i) in the case of a sale and purchase pursuant to the Call Right, wire transfer of immediately available funds, or (ii) in the case of a sale and purchase pursuant to the Put Right, at the option of the Enstar Shareholder, either (A) wire transfer of immediately available funds, (B) unrestricted ordinary shares of Enstar (provided that such ordinary shares are then listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market, the New York Stock Exchange or another national securities exchange), or (C) a combination of (A) and (B). If the purchase price at the closing of any sale and purchase pursuant to this Section 3.5 consists of unrestricted ordinary shares of Enstar, the value of such ordinary shares will be deemed to equal the average of the last reported sale price of the ordinary shares over the 10 trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the effective date of any such closing.
(g)        Enstar hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each of the Shareholders (other than the Enstar Shareholder) and their Permitted Transferees, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, the due and punctual payment, observance, performance and discharge of the Enstar Shareholder’s obligations under this Section 3.5. Each of the Shareholders hereby agrees that in no event shall Enstar be required to pay any amount to the Shareholders or their Permitted Transferees under, in respect of, or in connection with this Agreement other than as expressly set forth herein.
Article 4 
PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHTS AND OTHER AGREEMENTS
Section 4.1   Pre-emptive Right. 
(a)        The Company hereby grants to each Initial Shareholder and the Dowling Shareholder (each, a “Pre-emptive Shareholder”) the right to purchase its pro rata portion of any new Common Shares (other than any Excluded Securities) (the “New Securities”) that the Company may from time to time propose to issue or sell to any Person. 
(b)        The Company shall give written notice (an “Issuance Notice”) of any proposed issuance or sale described in subsection (a) above to the Pre-emptive Shareholders within five Business Days following any meeting of the Board at which any such issuance or sale is approved. The Issuance Notice shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the proposed issuance or sale, including: 
(i)         the number of New Securities proposed to be issued and the percentage of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares, on a fully diluted basis, that such issuance would represent; 
(ii)        the proposed issuance or sale date, which shall be at least 20 Business Days from the date of the Issuance Notice; and 
(iii)       the proposed purchase price per share. 
(c)        Each Pre-emptive Shareholder shall for a period of 15 Business Days following the receipt of an Issuance Notice (the “Exercise Period”) have the right to elect irrevocably to purchase, at 
15

the purchase price set forth in the Issuance Notice, up to the amount of New Securities equal to the product of (x) the total number of New Securities to be issued or sold by the Company on the issuance or sale date (as the case may be) and (y) a fraction determined by dividing (A) the number of Common Shares owned by such Pre-emptive Shareholder immediately prior to such issuance or sale by (B) the total number of Common Shares owned by the Initial Shareholders and the Dowling Shareholder on such date immediately prior to such issuance or sale (the “Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portion”) by delivering a written notice to the Company. Such Pre-emptive Shareholder’s election to purchase New Securities shall be binding and irrevocable. 
(d)       No later than five Business Days following the expiration of the Exercise Period, the Company shall notify each Pre-emptive Shareholder in writing of the number of New Securities that each Pre-emptive Shareholder has agreed to purchase (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where such number is zero) (the “Over-allotment Notice”). Each Pre-emptive Shareholder exercising its right to purchase its Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portion of the New Securities in full (an “Exercising Shareholder”) shall have a right of over-allotment such that if any other Pre-emptive Shareholder fails to exercise its right under this Section 4.1 to purchase its Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portion of the New Securities (each, a “Non-Exercising Shareholder”), such Exercising Shareholder may purchase all or any portion of such Non-Exercising Shareholder’s allotment (the “Over-allotment New Securities”) by giving written notice to the Company (within five Business Days of receipt of the Over-allotment Notice (the “Over-allotment Exercise Period”)) setting forth the number of Over-allotment New Securities that such Exercising Shareholder is willing to purchase. Such Exercising Shareholder’s election to purchase Over-allotment New Securities shall be binding and irrevocable. If more than one Exercising Shareholder elects to exercise its right of over-allotment, each Exercising Shareholder shall have the right to purchase the number of Over-allotment New Securities it elected to purchase in its written notice; provided, that if the over-allotment New Securities are over-subscribed, each Exercising Shareholder shall purchase its pro rata portion of the available Over-allotment New Securities based upon the relative Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portions of the Exercising Shareholders. 
(e)        The Company shall be free to complete the proposed issuance or sale of New Securities described in the Issuance Notice with respect to any New Securities not elected to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.1(c) and Section 4.1(d) above in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Issuance Notice (except that the amount of New Securities to be issued or sold by the Company may be reduced) so long as such issuance or sale is closed within 180 days after the expiration of the Over-allotment Exercise Period (subject to the extension of such 180-day period for a reasonable time not to exceed 270 days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals). In the event the Company has not issued or sold such New Securities within such time period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without first again offering such securities to the Pre-emptive Shareholders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.1. 
(f)        Upon the consummation of the issuance or sale of any New Securities in accordance with this Section 4.1, the Company shall deliver to each Exercising Shareholder certificates (if any) evidencing the New Securities, which New Securities shall be issued free and clear of any Liens (other than those arising hereunder or under Applicable Law and those attributable to the actions of the purchasers thereof), and the Company shall so represent and warrant to the purchasers thereof, and further represent and warrant to such purchasers that such New Securities shall be, upon issuance thereof to the Exercising Shareholders and after payment therefor, duly authorized and validly issued. Each Exercising Shareholder shall deliver to the Company the purchase price for the New Securities purchased by it by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Each party to the purchase and sale of New Securities shall take all such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the purchase and sale including entering into such additional agreements as may be necessary or appropriate. 
Section 4.2   Corporate Opportunities. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or under Applicable Law to the contrary (to the full extent permitted by Applicable Law), (i) the Initial Shareholders, the Dowling Shareholder and their respective Affiliates (A) may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature and description (whether similar or dissimilar to the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), independently or with others, and none of the Company, any Subsidiary, any other Shareholder, and each of their respective Affiliates shall have any 
16

right by virtue of this Agreement in or to any such investment or interest of the Enstar Shareholder, the Trident Shareholders, the Dowling Shareholder, any Enstar Director or any Trident Director and any of its or their respective Affiliates to any income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture shall not be deemed wrongful or improper, and (B) shall not be obligated to present any investment opportunity to the Company or any Subsidiary even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Company or any Subsidiary, could be taken by the Company or such Subsidiary, and (ii) the parties hereby waive (and the Company shall cause the Subsidiaries to waive) to the fullest extent permitted by law any fiduciary or other duty of the Initial Shareholders, the Dowling Shareholder and the Enstar Directors and Trident Directors not expressly set forth in this Agreement, including fiduciary or other duties that may be related to or associated with self-dealing, corporate opportunities or otherwise, in each case so long as such Person acts in a manner consistent with this Agreement. 
Section 4.3   Confidentiality. 
(a)        Each party shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, keep confidential and not divulge any information (including all budgets, business plans and analyses) concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries, including their respective assets, business, operations, financial condition and prospects (“Information”), and to use, and cause its Representatives to use, such Information only in connection with the operation of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent any party from disclosing such Information (i) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (ii) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such party, (iii) to the extent compelled by legal process or required or requested pursuant to subpoena, interrogatories or other discovery requests, (iv) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (v) to the other parties, (vi) to such party’s Representatives that in the reasonable judgment of such party need to know such Information or (vii) to any potential Permitted Transferee in connection with a proposed Transfer of Common Shares from a Shareholder as long as such transferee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 4.3 as if a Shareholder; provided, further, that in the case of clause (i), (ii) or (iii), such party shall notify the other parties of the proposed disclosure as far in advance of such disclosure as practicable and use reasonable efforts to ensure that any Information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment, when and if available. 
(b)        The restrictions of Section 4.3(a) shall not apply to information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by a party or any of its Representatives in violation of this Agreement, (ii) is or becomes available to a party or any of its Representatives on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to the receiving party and any of its Representatives, (iii) is or has been independently developed or conceived by such party without use of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ Information or (iv) becomes available to the receiving party or any of its Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any other party or any of their respective Representatives; provided, that such source is not known by the recipient of the information to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with the disclosing party or any of its Representatives.
