WHEREAS, the Company desires MGA to act as its managing general agent with respect to insurance policies for the authorized insurance coverages as specifically set forth in this Agreement (the "Authorized Coverages") set forth in Schedule I to this Agreement (the applied for, issued coverages are sometimes referred to as "Policy(ies)"), in each state in which the Company is licensed and authorized to transact insurance, including renewals, issued from the Effective Date of this Agreement until terminated as hereinafter set forth; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, the parties have agreed that the terms of this Agreement shall be effective as of March 17, 2015, (the "Effective Date") and do otherwise agree as follows:

ARTICLE I - GENERAL PRINCIPLES

1.1. In accordance with Section 626.7451, Florida Statutes ("F.S."), or such other laws and regulations of such other jurisdictions encompassed by this Agreement, the Company appoints MGA for the purpose of producing and handling Policies for the Authorized Coverages of business set forth in Schedule I and issued or renewed on or after the Effective Date of this Agreement. MGA agrees to produce the Authorized Coverages of business in accordance with the territory and limits of liability set forth in Schedule I hereto and the Company's established and approved underwriting requirements and premiums for the Authorized Coverages of business.

1.2. The Company, relying upon the expertise of MGA, grants authority to MGA hereunder solely with respect to production and administration of the Policies. Nonetheless, the Company being at risk and having ultimate responsibility and authority for the Policies issued by MGA, at all times shall have the overriding authority and discretion with respect to any decisions and all matters pertaining to the Polices and to the general welfare of the Company.

1.3. Consistent with the intention of the parties to produce an operating profit for the Company, MGA shall manage its affairs in accordance with the terms of the Agreement in an ethical and professional manner and in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations of the State of Florida or the applicable laws and regulations of such other states in which the Company is licensed and authorized to transact insurance.

1.4. The Company, relying upon the expertise of MGA, grants authority to MGA to solicit and negotiate reinsurance with respect to the programs authorized by the Company; but MGA acknowledges that the Company is a party to that certain Reinsurance Capacity Right of First Refusal Agreement, dated the date hereof, by and between the Company and Transatlantic Reinsurance Company (the “ROFR”), and MGA agrees to solicit and negotiate reinsurance on behalf of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of the ROFR. Nonetheless, the Company being at risk and having ultimate responsibility for all reinsurance contracts issued, will have the ultimate authority and discretion to approve or disapprove all contracts for reinsurance, retention levels and other aspects of the reinsurance program.

1.5 The Term of this Agreement shall continue for a period of three (3) years from the Effective Date unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Initial Term”). This agreement shall automatically renew for additional one (1) year terms (each a “Renewal Term”) unless either party provides the other with written notice of intent not to renew at least one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term.

ARTICLE II - UNDERWRITING AUTHORITY

2.1. Agents. The Company hereby grants to MGA authority to accept applications to issue the Policies received through appointed licensed insurance agents ("Producing Agents") and agents authorized as "Brokering Agents" (as defined in Section 626.752, F.S. or as defined by other similar statutes in any state in which the Company issues Policies). MGA may not authorize or facilitate the appointment of any insurance broker or agent, or any other entity, to issue Policies on behalf of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company. MGA may not appoint a sub-managing general agent for the business of the Company. The Company reserves the right, at the discretion of its Board of Directors, to appoint one or more sub-Managing General Agents for the business of the Company. MGA may not permit any of its sub-producers to serve on its Board of Directors. MGA will comply with any underwriting guidelines promulgated by the Company.

2.2. Agent Agreements. Any and all agreements with any insurance broker, agent, Producing Agent, Brokering Agent or other entity (hereinafter collectively called the "Agent") shall be made directly between MGA and such Agent. Such agreements shall provide that with respect to any action taken or not taken by MGA in connection with a Policy(ies) or this Agreement, the Agent shall look solely to MGA for any and all expenses, costs, causes of action and damages suffered by the Agent. Nothing in this Section is intended to create a cause or claim against MGA that the Agent would not otherwise have against the Company.

2.3. Agent Responsibility. MGA shall process all Agent appointments made by the Company and bear sole responsibility to oversee the placement of business through Agents. With respect to a Policy(ies) or this Agreement, MGA shall indemnify and hold the Company harmless and reimburse the Company for any and all fines and expenses levied against or incurred by the Company as a result of MGA accepting business from an unlicensed Agent, or the failure of the Company, MGA, or any Brokering Agent to comply with Section 626.752, F.S. regulating the exchange of business between insurer and Brokering Agents, unless such costs and expenses result solely from the Company's failure to take legally required or reasonably necessary specific actions recommended to the Company by MGA.'

2.4. Policy Services. Pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to MGA authority to receive and accept proposals of insurance from the Effective Date of this Agreement until the termination of this Agreement for the Authorized Coverages. Such authority shall include the binding of coverage, the issuing and endorsing of Policies in the name of the Company, and the canceling and non-renewing of such binders and contracts when the best judgment of MGA dictates and in accordance with any underwriting guidelines promulgated by the Company.

2.5. Underwriting. The Company grants MGA authority to provide the Policies pursuant to the underwriting guidelines provided in writing to MGA by the Company, as the same may be amended by the Company in its sole discretion from time to time (the “Underwriting Guidelines”). Such Underwriting Guidelines shall include, but not be limited to, guidelines pertaining to the basis of the rates to be charged, types of risks to be written, maximum limits of liability, applicable exclusions, territorial limitations, policy cancellation provisions, and maximum policy period. All Underwriting Guidelines that the Company provides MGA, in writing, shall be deemed incorporated in this Agreement by reference and adoption. The Company grants MGA authority to operate within written guidelines approved in writing by the Company, subject, however, to the professional judgment of supervisory underwriting personnel; and any Policy issued by or at the request of MGA which does not fall within such guidelines shall, at the Company's request, be promptly terminated, and MGA shall indemnify the Company from and against any liability thereunder. MGA agrees to provide promptly to the Company such information as it may reasonably require in order to ensure that MGA is fairly allocating risk between the Company and any other affiliated insurer of MGA. MGA will at all times manage the Policies and the Company’s risk in accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines as determined by the Company from time to time.

2.6. One-Year Terms. The Company only grants MGA authority to issue or have issued Policies having a maximum term of one year.

2.7. Policy Language. The Company grants MGA authority to utilize only insurance contract wordings, endorsement wordings and rates that are approved by the Company and are properly filed and approved, to the extent necessary, by the appropriate regulatory authorities of the State of Florida or of such other states in which the Company is licensed and authorized to transact insurance.

2.8. MGA Appointment: Maximum Annual Net Written Premium Production. The Company appoints MGA to issue Policies on behalf of the Company in the State of Florida and such other states in which the Company is licensed and authorized to transact insurance. Other than through MGA, Company agrees not to write the Authorized Coverages of business that the Company is duly licensed to write, or to appoint another managing general agent to write the Authorized Coverages of business that the Company is duly licensed to write, in the State of Florida or such other jurisdictions identified on Schedule I of this Agreement during the term of this Agreement as set forth in paragraph 1.5 herein (the "Term"). Under no circumstances shall MGA produce from the Authorized Coverages direct and assumed written premium in excess of $250,000,000 in any year without the express written approval of the Company. MGA shall not produce an amount of business requiring the Company to infuse additional capital or surplus solely as a result of such production, but MGA will not be liable to the extent any business is produced requiring an additional capital infusion or surplus due to the Company failing to advise MGA that the Company is approaching its yearly written premium limit.

2.9. Policyholder Information. The Company and MGA shall fully comply with the provisions of any applicable Federal laws, the laws of the State of Florida and the applicable laws of such other states in which the Company is licensed and authorized to transact insurance applicable to policyholder information. The policyholder information will be the property of the Company.

2.10. Expirations. In the event of the termination of this Agreement, MGA's records and the use and control of expirations of the Company's business produced by Agents registered or appointed by the Company shall be the property of the Company, and MGA will ensure that all agreements between the Agents and MGA so provide. Upon such termination, MGA will turn over to the Company all such books and records and all policyholder information. During the term of this Agreement and for five (5) years following its termination, MGA shall not, and shall not encourage any other person to, make any statement or take any action which has either the intention or the effect of disparaging the Company or its business. During the term of this Agreement and for two (2) years following its termination, MGA and its affiliates agree that they shall not collaborate with any Agent to move a Policy from the Company to any issuer of insurance policies affiliated with MGA, nor take any other action reasonably calculated to cause an Agent to move any business away from the Company, including, but not limited to, offering or coordinating with any other issuer of insurance policies to offer a “Me Too” program with respect to the Policies. In addition, MGA will not interfere, directly or indirectly, with the Company’s or any successor managing general agent’s renewal of any of the Company’s business. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company agrees that advertising by an affiliate of MGA, including Federated National Insurance Company (“FNIC”), that is directed at the public at large regarding its products and services generally shall not violate this Section.

2.11. Premium Financing. With respect to Policies, MGA shall have the authority to enter into agreements with premium finance companies ("PFCs"), to receive notices of premium financing, to receive proceeds of premium financing, and to receive and act upon notices and requests of cancellations from PFCs; but in entering into any agreement with a PFC, MGA will (a) promptly disclose the terms of such agreement to the Company, and (b) reserve the Company’s right (i) to terminate such agreement upon 30 days’ notice, and MGA will indemnify and hold harmless the Company from any penalties incurred as a result of such termination, and (ii) to cause such premium financing to be replaced by a competitive product offered by the Company or by another PFC in the marketplace. MGA shall not delegate this authority to any Agent. Subject to the PFCs contracts with the insureds and applicable statutes (e.g. F.S. §627.848) and rules and regulations of the State of Florida or of such other states in which the Company transacts insurance, and to the extent of the contract balances due the PFCs from the insureds, MGA shall return all unearned premium directly to the PFCs to the extent held by MGA and shall cause the Agents to return all unearned commission to the PFCs to the extent held by the Agents.

ARTICLE III - HANDLING OF FUNDS

3.1. Depository Account. MGA shall accept in a fiduciary capacity, on behalf of the Company, all premiums, policies, fees, interest, and service charges collected and other funds relating to the business written under this Agreement. The Company shall establish and maintain a "Depository Account" in a bank mutually agreed upon by MGA and the Company. The bank must be a member of the Federal Reserve System whose accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. All premiums, policy fees, interest, and service charges collected by MGA shall be deposited into the Depository Account. Deposits to the Depository Account are to be made daily or no less seldom than weekly if daily determination of the deposit amount required is not feasible. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the proceeds of the Depository Account shall be used for payments as directed by the Company. There may be retained in such Depository Account no more than sixty (60) days of estimated claim payments and Allocated Loss Adjustment Expenses. It is acknowledged and agreed that any investment income earned and costs assessed in connection with the Depository Account belong to the Company.

3.2. No Commingling. MGA shall not commingle any premium or escrow trust funds with personal accounts or other funds held by MGA in any other capacity.

The Company will provide MGA revocable signature authority over this account.

3.5. Bank Failure. MGA shall not be liable for any loss which occurs by reason of the default or failure of the bank in which the Depository Account and Disbursement Account are maintained and such loss shall not affect MGA's obligations under this Agreement.

The per-policy fee in Florida shall not exceed $25.00 or such other amount as may be authorized under Florida law or the amount established by applicable laws and regulations in such other states in which the Company is licensed and authorized to transact insurance, as applicable. In no instance shall the aggregate of the per-policy fees for a placement of business authorized under Section 626.7451(11), F.S., when combined with any other per-policy fee charged by the Company, result in per-policy fees which exceed the aggregate amount of $25.00 or the amount as may be authorized by Florida law or the amount established by the applicable laws and regulations in such other states in which the Company is licensed and authorized to transact insurance, as applicable.
