Section 2.2. Renewals.

(a) Sellers shall provide to the Company, in accordance with the time frame set forth on Schedule E, a true, complete and correct list of the Subject Policies that are either in force on the date hereof or lapsed as of the date hereof but subject to reinstatement as well as a list of all then still in-force policies non-renewed during the 90 days preceding the date hereof that would have been Subject Policies had they been in effect on the Non-Renewal Date.

(b) In connection with the first policy anniversary of each Subject Policy on or after the Non-Renewal Date (or, with respect to such Subject Policies as remain in effect with a Seller subsequent to such anniversary for the reasons set forth in Section 2.1, in connection with the next such policy anniversary), Seller shall send to each Contractholder selected by the Company a written notice in the form agreed by the parties, and in compliance with all applicable Laws, notifying such Contractholder of the non-renewal of such Subject Policy by Seller.

Further, it is acknowledged and agreed that neither the Company nor any Permitted Designee is required to offer insurance coverage to all Contractholders, to any particular Contractholder, or to any minimum percentage of Contractholders.

CONSIDERATION

Section 3.1. Commission. In consideration of the service to be provided by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Sellers, a commission equal to 5% for the first year, 4% for the second year and 1% for the third year of the direct written premium (as adjusted for cancellations and endorsements) for the Subject Policies renewed by the Permitted Designees during each one-year period commencing on the Non-Renewal Date (the "Scheduled Commission"). The Company shall pay or cause to be paid the Scheduled Commission to Sellers, in arrears, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each three month period ending after the Non-Renewal Date based on direct written premiums on the Subject Policies renewed by the Permitted Designees.

Section 3.2. Minimum Commission.

(a) The amount of Scheduled Commission paid or caused to be paid by the Company to Sellers, together with additional commission paid pursuant
Section 3.3, shall be subject to an aggregate minimum of $5 million (the "Minimum Amount"), with a minimum amount of $2 million through the end of the first year, $4 million through the end of the second year, and $5 million through the end of the third year (such minimum accrued amounts being referred to herein as the "Minimum Annual Amount"). If the Scheduled Commission paid pursuant to Section 3.1 together with additional commission paid pursuant to
Section 3.3 does not equal the Minimum Annual Amount applicable to such year, the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Sellers, concurrent with the payment of the amount due for the final period for such year, the amount by which the Minimum Annual Amount exceeds such Scheduled Commission paid for such year. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate Minimum Annual Amount for the three years is cumulative and shall take into account any amount of Scheduled Commission paid and commission paid pursuant to Section 3.3 in excess of the Minimum Annual Amount, such that once the aggregate Scheduled Commission paid in any or all of the three years under Section 3.1 and commission paid pursuant to
Section 3.3 below equals or exceeds $5 million, no further Minimum Annual Amount shall be due or payable.

(b) In order to secure the obligations of the Company to pay or cause to be paid the Minimum Annual Amounts, the Company shall, within five Business Days of the date of this Agreement, post or cause to be posted a letter of credit, in such form as agreed by the Company and Sellers, in favor and for the benefit of Sellers in the amount of $2 million, which,

5

subject to adjustments as discussed below, shall be renewed or replaced upon the first anniversary of the Non-Renewal Date with a replacement letter of credit in the amount of $2 million and on the second anniversary of the Non-Renewal Date with a replacement letter of credit in the amount of $1 million; provided, that in lieu of any of the foregoing letters of credit, the Company shall be permitted to place in escrow funds in the amount required hereby with an escrow agent and subject to the terms of an escrow agreement in each case as agreed by the Company and Sellers. The letter(s) of credit or escrow account may be drawn upon by Sellers only to the extent that the Company fails to pay or cause to be paid when due the Scheduled Commission or commission due pursuant to Section 3.3 to Sellers (including the Minimum Annual Amounts) and fails to remedy such failure within five Business Days of receipt of notice thereof. The Company shall have the right from time to time to reduce the amount of the letter of credit or funds in escrow to the extent that payments of Scheduled Commissions pursuant to Section 3.1 and commission paid pursuant to Section 3.3 are made during the respective years on the condition that there shall be no reduction of any letter of credit or funds in escrow unless the sum of (1) cumulative Scheduled Commissions paid pursuant to Section 3.1 and commissions paid pursuant to Section 3.3 and (2) amounts represented by letter of credit or funds in escrow exceed (A) $2 million, with respect to a reduction at any time prior to the first anniversary of the Non-Renewal Date, (B) $4 million, with respect to a reduction at any time on or after the first anniversary and prior to the second anniversary of the Non-Renewal Date and (C) $5 million with respect to a reduction at any time period on or after the second anniversary of the Non-Renewal Date.

Section 3.3. Commission on Additional Policies. To the extent the Permitted Designees are able to write policies produced by any of the terminated agents referred to in Section 2.3(c) which policies would have been Subject Policies hereunder if produced by the agents listed on Schedule C (hereafter "Additional Policies"), the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Sellers a commission equal to 2% for the first year, 2% for the second year and 1% for the third year of the direct written premium (as adjusted for cancellations and endorsements) for the Additional Policies written by the Permitted Designees during each one-year period commencing on the date hereof, such commissions to be a credit against the Minimum Annual Commission as set forth in Section
3.2(a). The Company shall pay or cause to be paid such commissions to Sellers, in arrears, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each three month period ending after the date hereof based on direct written premiums on the Additional Policies.

To Our New York OneBeacon Agencies:

As you know, over the past several years, we've worked hard to improve our commercial book's results in New York. In spite of your support through substantial reunderwriting and other actions, our results are still inconsistent with what we are seeing elsewhere at OneBeacon. Rather than prolonging the pain for both of us, we entered into a renewal rights agreement with Tower Group Companies. This agreement provides you with the opportunity to transfer much of your OneBeacon commercial business to Tower. Our press release announcing this agreement is attached for your reference.

Coincident with this agreement your Statement of Binding Authority attached to your OneBeacon Agency Agreement is amended to delete COMMERCIAL LINES ONLY effective December 1, 2004, and your commercial lines Performance Incentive Agreement is terminated 90 days effective from today*. However, we are pleased to enable your continued and immediate access to A rated paper through Tower. You may already know Tower, which is comprised of Tower Insurance Company of New York and Tower Risk Management, an insurance group with an established focus on New York and a strong desire to expand its agency relationships into all regions of the state.

The Tower team is eager to introduce itself to your agency and provide you with an understanding of its products, programs and appetite, which you will find competitive and comprehensive. You may expect to hear from a Tower representative shortly.

Everyone at OneBeacon appreciates the support you have shown us over challenging times. We regret having to take this action, but hope you understand why and that you feel we're doing our best to make the transition process a little easier. Do not hesitate to call on us if we may be of assistance during the transition to Tower. John Tillistrand is available to all of you throughout the state, along with Pete Meehan on Long Island, Bart Oddo for upstate New York, and Rick Hernandez in New York City. And you may contact me at any time as well at either 603.436.7581 or mmcsally@onebeacon.com

Best Regards,

/s/ Michael McSally                          /s/ John Tillistrand
