                     (c)   unused, accrued Paid Time Off through the Termination
         Date,

                     (d)   any other benefits earned by the Employee and vested

         plan of the Company or any affiliate in which the Employee
         participates,

                     (e)   for the 12 month period following the Termination
         Date, coverage for the Employee and his dependents (if applicable)

         normal payroll practices, commencing on the Termination Date and ending
         on the earlier of: (i) 12 months from the Termination Date or (ii) the
         date on which the Employee obtains full-time employment with any third
         party or as an independent consultant, whichever is earlier.

         Except during any period of disability as described in Section 3.2, the
Employee shall have a duty to undertake to secure new employment immediately
upon termination of employment with the Company. The Employee shall immediately
notify the Company in writing of such employment and any paym ents received by
the Employee pursuant to this Section 4.1 subsequent to the commencement of such

                                       9

<PAGE>

remitted to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the
Employee obtains full-time employment with any third party or as an independent
consultant at an annual amount lower than his Base Salary at the Company on the
date of his termination, the Company shall pay to the Employee an amount equal
to such difference from the date on which the Employee obtains such full-time
employment for a period not to exceed 12 months from the Termination Date.

              4.2.   RESIGNATIONS FROM POSITIONS. The Employee specifically
agrees that upon his termination of employment with the Company, whether
voluntary or involuntary, his position as an officer or as a member of the Board
of Directors of MIIX Group, MIIX Insurance Company, Underwriter or any affiliate
shall cease and this Agreement shall constitute notice of the Employee's
resignation in such regard.

         5.   NON-COMPETITION.

              5.1.   DEFINITION OF "COMPETITOR". For purposes of this Agreement,
"competitor" shall mean any company engaged in or about to be engaged in the
business of selling or marketing a product or service in the medical
professional liability insurance business which is similar to any product or
service sold or marketed or about to be sold or marketed by the Company or any
affiliate and the successors thereof, respectively.

              5.2.   TERM OF NON-COMPETITION. The Employee agrees that for so
long as she is employed by the Company and for a period of one year after the
termination thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, she will not, directly or
indirectly, whether for compensation or not, own, manage, operate, join, control
or participate in, or be connected as a stockholder, officer, employee, partner,
creditor, guarantor, consultant, advisor or otherwise, with a competitor that is
engaged in or about to be engaged in business in any geographic area where the
Company or any affiliate are doing business. The foregoing shall not be
construed, however, as preventing the Employee from investing his assets in such
form or manner as will not require services on the part of the Employee in the
operations of the businesses in which such investments are made and provided
that any such business is publicly-owned and the interest of the Employee
therein is solely that of a passive investor

                                       10
<PAGE>

owning not more than five (5%) percent of the outstanding equity securities of
any such business.

              5.3.   SOLICITATION OF COMPANY CLIENTS. For the period of one year
after the termination of the Employee's employment with the Company or any
affiliate, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Employee shall not, directly or
indirectly, call upon or solicit insurance or consulting business from any
person or entity who is or was a client of the Company or any affiliate at any
time within a period of twelve months immediately prior to the Termination Date,
or any broker, agent or consultant of such person or entity, without the express
written consent of the Company.

              5.4.   SOLICITATION OF COMPANY EMPLOYEES. For the period of one
year after the termination of the Employee's employment with the Company or any
affiliate, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Employee shall not, directly or
indirectly, hire, retain or engage as a director, officer, employee, agent,
consultant, advisor or in any other capacity any person or persons who are
employed by the Company or any affiliate or who were at any time within a period
of six months immediately prior to the Termination Date employed by the Company
or any affiliate or otherwise interfere with the relationship between such
persons and the Company or its affiliates, without the express written consent
of the Company.

              5.5.   REMEDIES. The parties acknowledge and agree that the
Employee's services hereunder are special, unique, unusual and extraordinary,
giving them peculiar value, the loss of which cannot be reasonably or adequately
compensated solely by damages, and in the event that the Employee breaches any
provision of this Section 5, the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief
by way of injunction or otherwise. In the event that the period of time or
geographic area herein specified should be adjudged unreasonable in any court
proceeding, then the period of time shall be reduced by such number of months or
the geographic area shall be reduced by elimination of such portion thereof as
deemed unreasonable, so that this Agreement may be enforced during such period
of time and in such geographic area as is adjudged to be reasonable. In the
event that the Employee breaches

                                       11
<PAGE>

any of the provisions of this Section 5, the Company also shall be entitled to
cease all payments and benefits under the terms of this Agreement and to pursue
all remedies which the Company might have including, but not limited to, those
contained in this Agreement.

         6.   CONFIDENTIALITY.

              6.1.   DEFINITION OF "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION". For the purposes
of this Agreement, "Confidential Information" shall mean all information about
the Company or any affiliate relating to any of their products or services or
any phase of their operations, including, without limitation, business plans and
strategies, trade secrets, marketing and distribution information, business
results, underwriting information and methods, identities of insureds and claims
defense and recovery methods and procedures not generally known through
legitimate means to any of its competitors, with which the Employee becomes
acquainted during the term of his employment.

              6.2.   CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT. During the time of employment, or
at any time thereafter, the Employee shall not disclose or make available to any
person or entity any Confidential Information without the express prior written
authorization of the Company. All records, files, materials and Confidential
Information obtained by the Employee in the course of his employment with the
Company are confidential and proprietary and shall remain the exclusive property
of the Company or its affiliates, as the case may be. Upon the termination of
the Employee's employment with the Company or any affiliate, or at any time upon
the request of the Company, the Employee (or his heirs or personal
representatives, as applicable) shall deliver to the Company (a) all documents
and materials containing Confidential Information relating to the business or
affairs of the Company or its affiliates, or their customers or clients, and (b)
all other documents, materials and other property belonging to the Company or
its affiliates, or their customers or clients that are in the possession or
under the control of the Employee.

              6.3.   REMEDIES. The parties acknowledge and agree that

      WHEREAS, MIIX Group is the parent company of Underwriter owning all of the

officer of MIIX Group, in accordance with executive compensation review
practices.

achievement of goals and objectives established by the Board on an annual basis.
The Board shall use its reasonable judgment in determining whether such goals
and objectives have been met and the amount, if any, of the bonus to be paid to
the Employee. It is anticipated that any bonus will be paid on or before March
31 of the succeeding year.

            2.3.  AMENDED AND RESTATED 1998 LONG TERM INCENTIVE EQUITY PLAN. The

of the Deferred Compensation Plan. The Employee and the Company shall,
simultaneous with the execution of this Agreement, execute the Deferred
Compensation Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

provided to similar employees of the Company, including, without limitation, all

other employee benefit programs now in existence or hereafter adopted by the
Company, as such plans, programs, practices or policies may be in effect from

vacation time can be carried over only in accordance with the Company's Paid
Time Off policy.

employment upon written notice to the Employee, whereupon such termination shall

and shall pay the difference between Base Salary and benefits paid to the

      as an independent consultant, whichever is earlier.

      Except during any period of disability as described in Section 3.2, the
Employee shall have a duty to undertake to secure new employment immediately
upon termination of employment with the Company. The Employee shall immediately
notify the Company in

                                       9
<PAGE>

writing of such employment and any payments received by the Employee pursuant to
this Section 4.1 subsequent to the commencement of such employment shall be
promptly remitted to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
that the Employee obtains full-time employment with any third party or as an
independent consultant at an annual amount lower than her Base Salary at the
Company on the date of her termination, the Company shall pay to the Employee an
amount equal to such difference from the date on which the Employee obtains such
full-time employment for a period not to exceed 12 months from the Termination
Date.

            4.2.  RESIGNATIONS FROM POSITIONS. The Employee specifically agrees
that upon her termination of employment with the Company, whether voluntary or
involuntary, her position as an officer or as a member of the Board of Directors

            5.2.  TERM OF NON-COMPETITION. The Employee agrees that for so long
as she is employed by the Company and for a period of one year after the
termination thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, she will not, directly or
indirectly, whether for compensation or not, own, manage, operate, join, control
or participate in, or be connected as a stockholder, officer, employee, partner,
creditor, guarantor, consultant, advisor or otherwise, with a competitor that is
engaged in or about to be engaged in business in any geographic area where the
Company or any affiliate are doing business. The foregoing shall not be
construed, however, as preventing the Employee from investing her assets in such
form or manner as will not require services on the part of the Employee in the
operations of

                                       10
<PAGE>

the businesses in which such investments are made and provided that any such
business is publicly-owned and the interest of the Employee therein is solely
that of a passive investor owning not more than five (5%) percent of the
outstanding equity securities of any such business.

            5.3.  SOLICITATION OF COMPANY CLIENTS. For the period of one year
after the termination of the Employee's employment with the Company or any

or any broker, agent or consultant of such person or entity, without the express
written consent of the Company.

            5.4.  SOLICITATION OF COMPANY EMPLOYEES. For the period of one year
