Payment: The Bonus Award shall be satisfied as follows:

•

50% Immediate Cash: On April 1 of the calendar year immediately following the close of a Contract Year in respect of which Executive is entitled to a Bonus Award, if and only if Executive is on such date employed by the Company, then fifty percent (50%) of the Bonus Award in respect of such Contract Year shall be deemed earned by Executive and shall be paid by the Company to Executive in cash (the “Bonus Award Paid Amount”), and

Examples of BVAR Value Calculation:

[***]

•

Capital Adjustments: For purposes of this Agreement, Book Value Per BVAR shall be adjusted as follows:

•

GIG Capital Contributions: In the event that GIG or its affiliates make any capital contribution to the Company (whether in cash or in kind), or the Company issues any additional equity securities to GIG or its affiliates, after the Effective Date, for purposes of calculating Penn-Patriot’s Book Value Per BVAR, such capital contribution or equity issuance shall be treated as senior to the BVARs (i.e., a preferred equity interest) and entitled to a priority return of 3.0% per annum, such that Penn-Patriot’s book value shall be deemed to be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of the fair market value, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, of such capital contribution (or, in the case of an equity issuance, the consideration received by the Company for such equity issuance) plus an interest charge accruing at a rate of 3.0% of such fair market value from the date of such capital contribution or equity issuance.

•

Third Party Capital Contributions: In the event that any person other than GIG or its affiliates makes any capital contribution to the Company (whether in cash or in kind), or the Company issues any equity securities to any such person, after the Effective Date, for purposes of calculating Penn-Patriot’s Book Value Per BVAR, the Company shall be deemed to have issued to such person a number of BVARs equal to (i) the fair market value of all consideration received by, or contributed to, the Company in respect of such capital contribution or equity issuance divided by (ii) the Book Value Per

BVAR immediately prior to (and without giving effect to) such capital contribution or equity issuance, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

•

Distributions: In the event that the Company makes any distributions to GIG (whether in cash or in kind) after the Effective Date, for purposes of calculating Penn-Patriot’s Book Value Per BVAR, Penn-Patriot’s book value shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the amount of cash (or, in the case of a distribution in kind, the fair market value, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, of the property) distributed to GIG plus an interest charge accruing from the date of such distribution at a rate per annum equal to (i) with respect to the portion of any distribution funded with indebtedness of the Company or its subsidiaries, the interest rate payable on such indebtedness and (ii) with respect to all other amounts distributed, the Company’s annualized total investment return (expressed as a percentage) from the date of such distribution until such date of determination.

•

Affiliate Transfers: In the event that any business currently conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries is transferred to GIG or any of its subsidiaries (other than the Company or any of its subsidiaries) after the Effective Date, the Board and Executive shall discuss in good faith whether any adjustments to the method of calculating the BVAR Value may be necessary to preserve the original intent of this Agreement.

•

Payment: Except as described above in the event of a Change in Control, the Company will pay Executive in cash (or, should the Board elect, in its absolute discretion, in shares of GIG stock (valued at the weighted average trading price of such shares as traded on NASDAQ on the trading day preceding the date of such payment)) Executive’s total BVAR Value as follows:

•

50% Immediately: On April 1, 2027, if and only if Executive had not materially breached any of Executive’s material post-employment agreements with the Company, then fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s total BVAR Value shall be deemed earned by Executive and shall be paid by the Company to Executive (the “BVAR Value Paid Amount”), and

•

50% Deferred Subject to True-Up: If on April 1, 2030 Executive had not materially breached any of Executive’s material post-employment agreements with the Company, then Executive’s total BVAR Value shall be redetermined (i.e., trued-up) based upon (i) the underwriting loss and loss adjustment expense developments in respect of all Contract Years as of December 31, 2029 (the “BVAR Value True-up Date”) and (ii) an actuarial assessment of incurred but not reported underwriting losses and loss adjustment expenses in respect of such Contract Years as of the BVAR Value True-up Date (the “BVAR Value Trued-up Amount”). In the event the BVAR Value Trued-up Amount exceeds the BVAR Value Paid Amount, then Executive shall at such time be paid 109% of the amount of such excess.

Employee Benefits: While employed by the Company, Executive may participate in all existing and future employee benefit plans, (e.g. pension and retirement, savings, medical, health and accident, life, disability) that are available to other senior executives of the Company in accordance with the terms of those plans as in effect from time to time, including four (4) weeks of paid vacation per year.

Restrictive Covenants: Executive agrees to execute the Company’s (i) perpetual confidentiality and mutual non-disparagement agreements and (ii) two-year post-employment non-solicitation and non-competition agreements (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”).

Dispute Resolution: Any disputes among COO and GIG or the Company (including affiliates) will be resolved by confidential binding “baseball” type arbitration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania under the auspices of JAMS, with each side responsible for its own attorneys fees and other related expenses. The governing law shall be that of New York.

Indemnification: To the fullest extent permitted by law, but subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company and the By-laws of the Company in effect from time to time (provided that no amendment thereto shall in any way lessen the Executive’s rights hereunder to less than is provided in the Certificate of Incorporation and/or By-laws as of the Effective Date), the Company shall promptly, after receipt of a request by the Executive, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Executive with respect to any claims against the Executive while the Executive (i) conducted himself in good faith in his capacity as an officer or director of the Company, whether by or on behalf of the Company, its shareholders or third parties and (ii) believed (a) in the case of conduct in his official capacity with the Company, that his conduct was in its best interests; and (b) in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to its best interests, unless (x) the Executive has breached or failed to perform the duties of his office pursuant to his fiduciary relation to the Company; and (y) the breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this section shall, subject to the limitations set forth herein, apply to all actions by the Executive in his capacity as an executive of the Company, including hiring and recruiting activities.

Subject to approval by a majority vote of all disinterested directors of the Board, the Company shall, in addition, promptly advance to the Executive an amount equal to the reasonable fees and expenses incurred in defending such matters, promptly after receipt of a reasonably itemized request for such advance and a signed written undertaking by the Executive to repay any funds advanced if (i) the Executive is not entitled to mandatory indemnification under § 13.1-698 of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (the “VSCA”) and (ii) it is ultimately determined under § 13.1-700.1 or 13.1-701 of the VSCA that the director is not entitled to indemnification. The Company may procure insurance with respect to the obligations provided in this section of the Agreement and shall provide such additional indemnification protection to the Executive as may be provided to other directors or key executive officers of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this section shall not apply to (i) the responsibility or liability of the Executive pursuant to any criminal statute or (ii) the liability of the Executive for the payment of taxes pursuant to local, state or federal law.

Sole Agreement, Amendments, Waivers, & Consents: This Agreement, together with the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of Executive’s employment by the Company and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements or representations among Executive, Company, and GIG, including their affiliates, whether written or oral, relating to Executive’s employment by the Company. This Agreement may only be amended, the provisions hereof may only be waived, and consents

and any notices with respect hereto shall only be effective if the amendment, waiver, notice, or consent is evidenced by a written document (including email) that is executed by Executive and the Company and approved by the Board, in its sole discretion.

Severability: In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

Counterparts: This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts by the parties hereto (including by means of telecopied signature pages or signature pages in “pdf” or a similar format sent as an attachment to an email message), each of which shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.

Compensation Committee Approval: Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be binding upon either party unless this Agreement is approved in writing by the Compensation Committee of the GIG Board, in its sole discretion.

Certain Definitions: Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Appendix B, “Definitions”.

(i) IRC 409A: It is the intent of the parties that all payments and/or other benefits provided under this Agreement be exempt from or otherwise comply with Section 409A of the U S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the regulations and official guidance issued thereunder , as each may be amended from time to time (collectively, ‘Section 409A”), so that none of the payments or other benefits provided hereunder will be subject to any adverse tax consequences of Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered consistent with such intent so as to provide for exemption or compliance with Section 409A. With respect to any taxable reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided to Executive by the Company (i) all such reimbursements of eligible expenses shall be made on or prior to the last day of the Executive’s taxable year immediately following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred, (ii) any right to such reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) the amount of any such reimbursement or in kind benefit provided in any taxable year of the Executive shall not affect in any way the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year. Neither Executive nor any of Executive’s creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable hereunder to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to Executive hereunder may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by Executive to the Company or any of its affiliates. Each payment or other benefit provided hereunder is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. Executive shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on Executive or for Executive’s account in connection with this Agreement, and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries and affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Executive harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Executive shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of any payments under this Agreement which are subject to Section 409A until Executive would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if at the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A and the benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to Executive) until the date that is six months following Executive’s termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A) and (ii) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to Executive hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Board, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax.

Further Documentation: Should Company counsel reasonably determine that it would be beneficial for Executive and the Company to further document any of the provisions of this Agreement, the parties agree to execute such documentation, which shall not conflict with any of the provisions hereinabove.

For purposes of this Agreement, underwriting income is calculated as:

(i)

“Policy Year Underwriting Income”, plus

(ii)

A “Discount of Casualty Loss Expenses” to reflect investment income attributable to long-term casualty loss reserves.

“Policy Year Underwriting Income” is calculated as:

(i)

All Net Written Premium in a Contract Year, whether or not such premium is earned in such Contract Year, plus,

(ii)

Policy fee income and policy-related reimbursed expenses (e.g., credit card fees) attributable to such Net Written Premium, less

(iii)

Loss Expenses attributable to such Net Written Premium, less

(iv)

Underwriting Expenses (including Commissions, Premium Related Charges and Operating Expenses) attributable to such Net Written Premium.

The “Discount of Casualty Loss Expenses” is calculated as:

(i)

(ii)

The average investment income rate for assets with comparable duration to Penn-Patriot’s anticipated cash payout of such Loss Expenses, multiplied by
