AMENDED AND RESTATED FIDELIS INSURANCE HOLDINGS LIMITED

2018 NON-QUALIFIED SHARE OPTION PLAN

1.     PURPOSE

The purpose of this Amended and Restated Fidelis Insurance Holdings Limited 2018 Non-Qualified Share Option Plan (the “Plan”) is to provide an incentive to officers and employees of Fidelis Insurance Holdings Limited, a Bermuda exempted company (the “Company”) and its Subsidiaries to continue their association with the Company and its Subsidiaries by providing opportunities for such persons to participate in the ownership of the Company and in its further growth, and to offer an additional inducement in obtaining the services of such persons. Capitalized terms not defined elsewhere in the document are defined in Section 16.

2.     ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

(a) The Plan shall be administered by the compensation committee of the Board (the “Committee”) or such individuals or directors who shall from time to time be designated by the Board.

(b) The Committee shall, from time to time, report to the Board the names of employees or other persons to whom Options are granted, the number of shares covered by each Option and the terms and conditions of each such Option.

(c) The Committee shall have the authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to adopt, amend and rescind such rules and regulations as, in its opinion, may be advisable in the administration of the Plan, and to construe and interpret the Plan, and its rules and regulations, and the instruments evidencing Options granted under the Plan and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Option in the manner and to the extent it deems necessary to carry out the intent of the Plan. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive on all Optionees. No member or former member of the Committee shall be liable for any action, failure to act or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan, any Option Agreement or any Option hereunder.

3.     OPTION SHARES

(a) Options may be granted under the Plan to acquire Common Shares. The total number of Common Shares for which Options may be granted under the Plan (the “Option Pool”) shall not exceed in the aggregate 3% of the Fully Diluted Share Capital increased by the number of Common Shares subject to Options (as defined in the 2015 Non-Qualified Share Option Plan (the “2015 Plan”) of the Company) granted under the 2015 Plan which terminate by reason of an Option Forfeiture (as defined in the 2015 Plan); provided, however, such aggregate number of shares shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(a) and Section 15. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the number of Common Shares subject to (i) time-vested Options shall reduce the Option Pool on a one-for-one basis at the time of grant of the Option and (ii) performance-vested Options shall reduce the Option Pool at the time of grant of the Option on a one-for-one basis based on the number of Common Shares subject to

- 3 -

the Options which shall vest based on achievement of the performance conditions at the target-level of performance (as determined by the Committee) at the time of grant; provided that if any performance-vested Options vest at a level of performance in excess of target, the number of Common Shares for which the Options may be exercised that are in excess of the number of Common Shares for which the Option may be exercised at the target-level of performance (the “Excess Common Shares”) will reduce the Option Pool at the time of vesting on a one-for-one basis. If, there is an insufficient number of Common Shares in the Options Pool to satisfy all of the Excess Common Shares (the amount of such deficiency, the “Pool Deficiency”), at the time of vesting of such performance-vested Options, the Option Pool shall be automatically increased by the amount of the Pool Deficiency (and the Board, to the extent necessary, shall take such action to ensure the availability of Common Shares under the Plan to satisfy the Pool Deficiency). In the event that any outstanding Option shall be forfeited (which for performance-vested Options, shall include any Options which did not vest as a result of a failure to achieve target-level performance conditions (as determined by the Committee at the time of grant)), be cancelled or expire for any reason or shall terminate or cease to be exercisable by reason of the death or termination of employment of the Optionee, the surrender of such Option, or any other cause (such event “Option Forfeiture”), the Common Shares allocable to the unexercised portion of such Option shall be returned to the Option Pool and shall again become available for the granting of Options under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Common Shares surrendered or withheld as payment of the exercise price, if any, in respect of Options and/or withholding taxes in respect of Options shall no longer be available for grant under the Plan.

(b) Grant of DERs. Subject to the other terms of the Plan, the Committee shall be authorized to grant DERs to Optionees, to be credited as of the dividend payment dates, during a specified period determined by the Committee. Such DERs shall be converted to cash by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitation as may be determined by the Committee (unless otherwise provided by the Committee, the DER’s will be accumulated until the Options are vested (provided that if the Options subject to performance-vesting conditions vest at a level of performance in excess of target, the value of previously accumulated DERs will increase by the fraction where the numerator is the total number of performance-vested Options which vested and the denominator is the total number of Options which would have vested if performance conditions were achieved at target level), at which point the applicable cash payment will be made to the Optionee, and, thereafter, DER payments (including with respect to any Excess Common Shares) will be paid concurrently with the time dividends on Common Shares are paid to shareholders). If a DER is granted in respect of an Option granted hereunder, then, unless otherwise stated in the Option Agreement, or, in the appropriate case, as determined by the Committee, in no event shall the DER be in effect for a period beyond the time during which the applicable related portion of the underlying Option has been exercised or otherwise settled, or has expired, been forfeited or otherwise lapsed, as applicable.

4.     AUTHORITY TO GRANT OPTIONS

The Committee may from time to time in its sole discretion grant to such eligible officers, directors and key employees an Option or Options to buy a stated number of Common Shares under the terms and conditions of the Plan. Subject only to any applicable limitations set forth elsewhere in the Plan, the number of Common Shares to be covered by any Option shall be as determined by the Committee.

- 4 -

5.     OPTION AGREEMENTS

Each Option granted hereunder shall be for such number of Common Shares, and otherwise subject to such terms and conditions, as the Committee shall determine and specify in an option agreement, which may be provided in electronic form, and in the information (the “Portal Information”) provided to the Optionee on the Company’s LTIP Portal (such information, together with the option agreement (the “Option Agreement”)) administered by Global Shares or such other provider as may be designated by the Company (the “LTIP Portal”), which Option Agreement may be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A or such other form not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee may determine. Each Option Agreement shall be accepted by the Optionee in the manner set forth in the Option Agreement.

6.     ELIGIBILITY

Officers and employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who have contributed or may be expected to contribute materially to the success of the Company or a Subsidiary shall be eligible to be granted Options under the Plan.

7.     EXERCISE PRICE

Each Option granted under the Plan shall be in the form of a nil-cost Option.

8.     DURATION AND EXERCISABILITY OF OPTIONS

Subject to Section 11 of the Plan, the duration of any Option shall be established by the Committee and shall be set forth in the Option Agreement, but no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date such Option is granted. Options will vest and be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee.

- 5 -

Option is to be exercised, (ii) payment of the Exercise Payment for such shares, and (iii) execution and delivery of any Joinder Agreement necessary for the Optionee and, if applicable his or her spouse, to become a party to, or to consent to, as applicable, the Shareholders’ Agreement, the Company shall cause to be delivered to such Optionee a certified copy of the register of shareholders of the Company reflecting the number of paid-up, non-assessable Common Shares with respect to which such Option has been so exercised.

10.     NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS

Options shall not be transferable by the Optionee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and Options may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee or, in the event of Optionee’s legal incapacity, by his or her legal representatives. Except to the extent provided above, Options may not be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process, and any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or disposition shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

11.     TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR INVOLVEMENT OF OPTIONEE WITH THE COMPANY

For purposes of the Plan, a Person serving as an independent contractor of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall be considered “employed” by the Company and termination of such relationship shall be considered termination of such person’s employment.

Except as may be otherwise set forth in an Option Agreement:

(a) Each Option shall expire on the earlier of (i) the expiration date specified in the Option Agreement and (ii) ten (10) years from the date such Option is granted, but shall be subject to earlier termination as provided below in this Section 11 or in the Option Agreement.

- 6 -

is prohibited from exercising the Option by reason of a Qualifying IPO underwriting agreement, on the day following the Lock-Up End Date.

(c) If an Optionee’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated voluntarily by the Optionee, then the Optionee’s Option shall expire on the date of such termination of employment with respect to the unvested portion thereof and, with respect to the vested portion of the Option on the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the date described in Section 11(a), and (ii) 90 days following termination of employment of the Optionee, but if the Optionee is prohibited from exercising the Option by reason of a Qualifying IPO underwriting agreement, on the day following the Lock-Up End Date.

12.     REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any Common Shares upon the exercise of any Option if the issuance of such shares shall constitute or result in a violation by the Optionee or the Company of any provisions of any law, statute or regulation of any government authority. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act (and any applicable state securities or “blue sky” law (a “Blue Sky Law”) or the securities law of any applicable jurisdiction, upon exercise of any Option the Company shall not be required to issue such shares unless the Committee has received evidence satisfactory to it to the effect that such issuance is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, Blue Sky Laws or the securities laws of any other applicable jurisdiction, and the holder of such Option will not transfer such shares except pursuant to a registration statement in effect under the Securities Act, Blue Sky Laws or the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction unless an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company has been received by the Company to the effect that such registration and compliance is not required. Any such determination by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive. The Company shall

- 7 -

not be obligated to take any action in order to cause the exercise of an Option or the issuance of Common Shares pursuant thereto or the sale of Common Shares to comply with any law or regulations of any governmental authority, including, without limitation, the Securities Act or applicable Blue Sky Law.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Company may refuse to permit any transfer of Common Shares or of any Option if in the opinion of its legal counsel such transfer would violate any non-U.S., or U.S. federal or state securities laws or subject the Company to liability thereunder. Any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition of Common Shares received upon exercise of any Option (or any other shares or securities derived therefrom) or of any Option which is not in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12 shall be void and of no effect and shall not be recognized by the Company.

If certificated, the Committee may cause any certificate representing Common Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option (and any other shares or securities derived therefrom) to bear a legend to the effect that the securities represented by such certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act, as amended, any applicable state securities laws, or the securities laws of any other applicable jurisdiction, and may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of except in accordance with the Plan and applicable agreements binding the Holder and the Company or any of its shareholders.

13.     NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER

Without limiting an Optionee’s rights under Section 3(b), no Optionee shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to shares covered by his or her Option until the date of issuance of a share certificate for such shares (if certificated) or the date on which the Company updates the register of shareholders reflecting such issuance. Without limiting an Optionee’s rights under Section 3(b), except as otherwise provided in Section 15, no adjustment for dividends or otherwise shall be made if the record date therefor is prior to the date of issuance of such certificate (if certificated) to the Optionee or the date on which the Company updated the register of shareholders reflecting such issuance.

14.     NO EMPLOYMENT OBLIGATION

The granting of an Option shall not impose upon the Company or any Subsidiary any obligation to employ or continue to employ any Optionee, or to engage or retain the services of any person, and the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment or services of any person or reduce the rate of compensation for such person shall not be diminished or affected by reason of the fact that an Option has been granted to him or her. The existence of an Option shall not be taken into account in determining any damages relating to termination of employment or services for any reason.

15.     CHANGES IN THE COMPANY’S CAPITAL STRUCTURE

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 15, the existence of outstanding Options shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its shareholders to make or authorize any or all subdivisions, splits, combinations or consolidations of shares of capital stock of the Company (including, the Common Shares) or the payment of a dividend in cash,

- 8 -

Common Shares or other securities of the Company, adjustments, recapitalizations, reclassifications, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business or any merger or consolidation of the Company or any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred or preference stock, whether or not convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares or other securities, ranking prior to or pari passu with the Common Shares or affecting the rights thereof, or warrants, rights or options to acquire the same, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business of the Company or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 15(d) of the Plan, the number of Common Shares in the Option Pool (less the number of shares theretofore delivered upon exercise of Options), the kind of security subject to an Option, and the number of Common Shares covered by any outstanding Option shall be equitably and appropriately adjusted by the Board in the event that, (x) all of the outstanding Common Shares are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of another corporation or entity by reason of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, combination of Common Shares, or dividends payable in Common Shares or other extraordinary cash or non-cash dividend or distribution (other than a distribution in redemption of Common Shares) or (y) the Company shall, at any time after the Issue Date, issue or sell Common Shares (other than any Common Shares issued or issuable pursuant to any Additional Closings, the exercise or vesting of any Founder Investor Warrants, or any Additional Warrants, any Future Management Warrants, any Future Ratchet Warrants, the Management Basic Warrants, the Ratchet Warrants, or the conversion of any Preference Shares or any awards granted under the Plan) without consideration or for consideration per Common Share less than the Fair Market Value per Common Share prevailing on the date immediately prior to the announcement or issuance of the additional Common Shares (whichever is earlier). Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, in the event additional Common Shares of the Company are issued on, or prior to, the first anniversary of the Effective Date, then the number of Common Shares subject to the Option Pool shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that the Common Shares in the Option Pool represent 3% of Fully Diluted Share Capital as of the first anniversary of the Effective Date. The decision of the Board as to the adjustment, if any, required by the provisions of this Section 15 shall be final, binding and conclusive and may provide for the elimination of fractional Common Shares which might otherwise be subject to Options without payment therefor.

(c) If the Company merges or consolidates with a wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of reincorporating itself under the laws of another jurisdiction, the Optionees will be entitled to acquire shares of the stock of the reincorporated entity upon the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to such reincorporation (unless such reincorporation involves a change in the number of shares or the capitalization of the Company, in which case proportional adjustments shall be made as provided in Section 15(b)), and the Plan, unless otherwise rescinded by the Board, will remain the Plan of the reincorporated Company.

(d) Subject to the Option Agreements, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion and except as otherwise provided in Section 15(c) of the Plan, if while unexercised Options remain outstanding under the Plan (i) there takes place a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined) of the Company, or (ii) in other circumstances in which the Board in its sole and absolute discretion deems it appropriate for the provisions of this paragraph to apply, then

- 9 -

the Board may, at its option and in its sole and absolute discretion and without the consent of any Optionee, take any one or more of the following actions with respect to outstanding Options: (a) accelerate the vesting of any outstanding Options, (b) cancel any Options in exchange for cash and/or the same consideration, if any, the Optionee would have received in connection with such event had the Option been exercised (to the extent it has not been previously exercised or forfeited) and no disposition of the shares so acquired upon such exercise had been made prior to such event, less the Exercise Price payable upon exercise thereof, (c) provide notice to an Optionee that upon such Change in Control or other event all Options granted to such Optionee and not theretofore exercised shall terminate and be void, in which event the Optionee shall have the right to exercise all Options then currently exercisable in accordance with the terms of the applicable Option Agreement within two (2) days after the date of such notice, and/or (d) any such other or further action as may be determined to be appropriate by the Board, in its sole discretion; provided that in the case of each of clauses (b) through (d), the Optionee’s economic interests are preserved. Upon receipt of any consideration referred to above by the Optionee, the Option shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect, including with respect to the vested and unvested portion thereof. The value of the stock or other consideration the Optionee would have received if the Option had been exercised shall be determined in good faith by the Board. The Option Agreement may provide that in the case of any such merger, consolidation, liquidation, sale, disposition, Change in Control or other circumstance, the Board shall accelerate the vesting of any Option.

(e) A “Change in Control” means any Person, or Persons together acting in concert (as such term is defined in the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (as amended from time to time) (the “Takeover Code”) published by the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers in the United Kingdom (the “Panel”) and as construed by the Panel from time to time, notwithstanding that the Takeover Code does not apply to any such Person), obtaining 50% or more of the voting rights normally attributable to the equity share capital of another Person whether obtained by way of acquisition, merger, share offering or other agreement or document or otherwise obtaining the power (howsoever achieved) to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of another Person.

(f) Upon dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Option shall terminate, but the Optionee shall have the right, immediately prior to such dissolution or liquidation, to purchase Common Shares pursuant to the Option to the extent such Option is then vested.

(g) No fraction of a Common Share shall be purchasable or deliverable upon the exercise of an Option, but in the event any adjustment hereunder of the number of shares covered by the Option shall cause such number to include a fraction of a share, such fraction shall be adjusted to the nearest smaller whole number of shares.

(h) Except as expressly provided herein, the issue by the Company of Common Shares, or other securities of any class or series, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares or other securities of any class or series, for cash or property or for labor or services either upon direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number, class or price of Common Shares then subject to outstanding Options.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Fidelis Insurance Holdings Limited 2018 Non-Qualified Share Option Plan (the “Plan”) (with capitalized terms used but not defined herein having the meanings given to them in the Plan), Fidelis Insurance Holdings Limited, a Bermuda exempted company (the “Company” which term shall include, unless the context otherwise clearly requires, all Subsidiaries (as defined in the Plan) of the Company), hereby grants to the Optionee the following option to purchase shares in the capital of the Company designated as Common Shares, par value of $0.01 per share to the Optionee, and the Optionee hereby accepts such grant and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth:

1.  Name of Person:	As provided in the Portal Information.
2.  Date of Grant of Option:	As provided in the Portal Information.
3.  An Option to acquire a total number of Common Shares as is provided in the Portal Information     Of the above total, the number of Common Shares subject to Time Vested Options and the “target” number of Performance Vested Options are as provided in the Portal Information

- 1 -

7. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the Optionee a share option (the “Option”) to purchase from the Company the number of Common Shares set forth in the Portal Information, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and upon the additional terms and conditions contained in the Portal Information and herein. This Option is a non-qualified stock option and is not intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” pursuant to Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

8. DER. A DER is granted in connection with this Option, consisting of the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the dividend distributions paid on the number of Common Shares set forth in the Portal Information. The Optionee shall only receive payment with respect to an Option (i) to the extent the Option remains outstanding and exercisable and (ii) only with respect that portion of the Option that has not yet been exercised. The DER’s will be accumulated until the Options are exercised (provided that if the Performance Vested Options vest at a level of performance in excess of target, at the time of vesting the value of previously accumulated DERs with respect to the Performance Vested Options will increase by the fraction where the numerator is the total number of Performance Vested Options which vested and the denominator is the total number of Performance Vested Options which would have vested if performance conditions were achieved at target level (and thereafter, until the time of exercise, DER payments will accumulate on all Performance Vested Options (including the Excess Common Shares))), at which point the applicable cash payment will be made to the Optionee.

9. Term and Exercisability of Option.

(a) This Option shall expire on the earlier of (a) the date set forth in Section 5 and in the Portal Information and (b) the date determined pursuant to Sections 11 and 15(d) of the Plan, and shall be exercisable in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan (including but not limited to Section 11 of the Plan) and those terms and conditions, if any, set forth in Section 6 of this Option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (other than as set forth in Section 11 of the Plan and Schedule I), vesting shall cease immediately upon termination of employment or other engagement for any reason, and any portion of this Option that has not vested on or prior to the date of such termination is forfeited on such date. If the Optionee dies before this Option has been exercised in full, the personal representative of the Optionee may exercise this Option in accordance with the Plan.

(b) Upon the earlier of (i) termination of the Optionee’s employment without Cause following a Change in Control or (ii) the date which is 12 months following a Change in Control, provided that the Optionee remains employed by the Company or its successor on such date, all Time Vested Options shall immediately vest and be exercisable (for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent not already vested, the vesting shall be accelerated). In the event of a Change in Control all Performance Vested Options shall vest and be exercisable to the extent the applicable performance goals are satisfied in connection with the Change in Control (as set forth on Schedule I). Any unvested Performance Vested Options that do not vest pursuant to this Section 9(b) shall be forfeited to the Company, and neither the Optionee nor the successors, heirs, assigns, transferees or personal representatives of any of them, will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such unvested Performance Vested Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may, in its

- 2 -

sole discretion, upon or in connection with the events described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, provide for the full and immediate vesting of all or a portion of the Performance Vested Options.

10. Repurchase Rights. If an Optionee’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated by the Company for Cause, any Common Shares held by Optionee as a result of previous exercise of an Option (the “Option Shares”) shall, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Company (but without any obligation on the Company to do so) upon notice to the Optionee, be repurchased by the Company at the lower of (A) Fair Market Value or (B) the Option Exercise Price set forth in the Portal Information. In either case of (A) or (B) above, such repurchase price will be (i) reduced by the cumulative cash dividends paid in respect of the Option Shares up to the date of repurchase and (ii) increased by the amount of taxation incurred by the Optionee in respect of exercise of the corresponding Option(s).

11. Section 280G. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or this Option Agreement to the contrary (i) to the extent that any of the payments and benefits provided for under the Plan, this Option Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement (including payments contingent upon the occurrence of a Change in Control) between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and Optionee (collectively, the “Payments”) would constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, then the Company and its Subsidiaries shall each use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the shareholder consent required to approve of such Payments to preclude such Payments from being subject to the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”); provided, however, that in such event the Optionee shall reasonably cooperate with the Company and shall take all actions and execute such documents and instruments as shall be reasonably necessary to accomplish such preclusion of the Excise Tax. In the event that (a) the shareholder consent is not obtained or (b) the Optionee does not take the actions set forth in the proviso to the foregoing sentence, the amount of the Payments shall be reduced to the amount that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax.

12. Method of Exercise. To the extent that the right to purchase Common Shares has vested hereunder, this Option shall be exercised from time to time electronically through the LTIP Portal (unless exercise on the LTIP Portal is not available, in which case this Option shall be exercised by written notice to the Company substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A), stating the number of Common Shares with respect to which this Option is being exercised, and accompanied by (a) payment in full of the Exercise Payment for the number of Common Shares to be delivered, by means of payment acceptable to the Company in accordance with Section 9 and Section 19 of the Plan and (b) an executed Joinder Agreement and a Spousal Consent, if applicable, pursuant to Section 18 of this Option; provided, however, that if an Option is exercised following the Optionee’s termination of employment (or earlier delivery of notice of termination), Common Shares shall be delivered only after the expiration of non-competition and non-solicitation covenants applicable to the Optionee, and only if, in the Committee’s discretion, the Optionee has complied with such covenants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the Committee’s consent, the Optionee may elect to pay the Exercise Payment hereunder by net settlement, whereby Optionee shall receive upon exercise such number of Common Shares equal to (x) the number of Options being exercised less (y) the number of Common Shares with a Fair Market Value equal to the Exercise Payment. Subject to the Plan and to Section 15 hereof, as soon as practicable after its receipt of such items, the Company shall deliver to the Optionee (or other

- 3 -

person entitled to receive the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Option), at the principal executive offices of the Company or such other place as may be mutually acceptable, a certificate or certificates for such shares out of theretofore authorized but unissued shares or reacquired Common Shares (if certificated) or a certified copy of the register of shareholders, as the Company may elect; provided, however, that the time of such delivery may be postponed by the Company for such period as may be required for it with reasonable diligence to comply with any applicable requirements of law. If the Optionee (or other person entitled to exercise this Option) fails to pay for and accept delivery of all of the shares specified in such notice upon tender of delivery thereof, his or her right to exercise this Option with respect to such shares not paid for may be terminated by the Company.

13. Forfeiture; Restrictions on Exercise. In addition to the restrictions set forth herein, this Option is subject to forfeiture upon the occurrence of the events specified in Sections 11 and 15 of the Plan. The Common Shares issued upon the exercise of this Option will be subject to further restrictions set forth in the Shareholders’ Agreement.

14. Nonassignability of Option Rights. This Option shall not be assignable or transferable by the Optionee except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

The Company shall not be obligated to sell or issue any Common Shares or other securities pursuant to the exercise of this Option unless the Common Shares or other securities with respect to which this Option is being exercised are at that time effectively registered or exempt from registration under all applicable securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction. In the event shares or other securities shall be issued which shall not be so registered, the Optionee hereby represents, warrants and agrees that he or she will receive such shares or other securities for investment and not with a view to their resale or distribution, and will execute an appropriate investment letter and make such other representations and warranties satisfactory to the Company and its counsel as a condition precedent to any exercise of this Option in whole or in part. The Optionee represents and warrants that either (i) the Optionee is not a U.S. person (as such term is defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act) or a person within the United States, none of the Options or related Common Shares are being or will be acquired, directly or indirectly, for the account or benefit of a U.S. person or a Person within the United States, Optionee was not offered any of the Options and Common Shares in the United States, Optionee did not execute or deliver any agreement in connection herewith in the United States, and Optionee is aware that the Options and Common Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States and that the Options and Common Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration under the Securities Act or except in compliance with the requirements of an exemption from registration, or (ii) in the event the Plan does not satisfy the requirements of Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933, the Optionee is an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act), and Optionee is aware that the Options and Common Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state of the United States and that the Options and Common Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration under the Securities Act or except in compliance with the requirements of an exemption from registration.

EXHIBIT B

(to Share Option Agreement)

FORM OF SPOUSAL CONSENT

I acknowledge that I have read the foregoing Share Option Agreement and that I know its contents. I acknowledge and agree that capitalized terms used and not defined in this spousal consent shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Share Option Agreement. I am aware that by the provisions of the Share Option Agreement, my spouse agrees, among other things, to the granting of rights to purchase and to the imposition of certain restrictions on the transfer of Optionee Securities, including my community interest therein (if any), which rights and restrictions may survive my spouse’s death. I hereby consent to such rights and restrictions, approve of the provisions of the Share Option Agreement, and agree that I will bequeath any interest which I may have in said Optionee Securities or any of them, including my community interest, if any, or permit any such interest to be purchased, in a manner consistent with the provisions of the Share Option Agreement. I direct that any residuary clause in my will not be deemed to apply to my community interest (if any) in such Optionee Securities except to the extent consistent with the provisions of the Share Option Agreement.

I further agree that in the event of a dissolution of the marriage between myself and my spouse, in connection with which I secure or am awarded any Optionee Securities or any interest therein through property settlement agreement or otherwise, (a) I will receive and hold said Optionee Securities subject to all the provisions and restrictions contained in the Share Option Agreement, including any option of the Company, the [Founding Investors] or other shareholder or optionholder to purchase such shares or interest from me, and (b) I hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint my spouse, as true and lawful attorney and proxy (the “Proxy”) of my Optionee Securities with full power of substitution, to vote (at any annual or special meeting or by written consent) such Optionee Securities which I would be entitled to vote as a shareholder, together with any and all Optionee Securities issued in replacement or in respect of such Optionee Securities by dividend, distribution, stock split, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise.

I also acknowledge that I have been advised to obtain independent counsel to represent my interests with respect to this spousal consent.
