    except to the extent disclosure hereof is necessary to enforce the
    provisions hereof. The INSURED and the Insurer shall not, and shall cause
    counsel not to, issue any press release or make any statements relating to
    the ACTIONS without the prior written consent of either party (provided that
    this clause shall not prohibit the INSURED and the Insurer from disclosing
    information about any or all the ACTIONS or the insurance if legally
    required to do so, including under applicable Federal or state securities
    laws).

4.  PREMIUM

    upon the payment of the premium set forth in this Clause #4.

    The premium is fully earned upon the effective date of this INSURANCE
    AGREEMENT but shall be subject to final adjustment as set forth below in
    Clause #5, Good Experience Credit.

    This INSURANCE AGREEMENT shall be non-cancelable by the INSURED or the
    Insurer except for nonpayment of the premium.

5.  GOOD EXPERIENCE CREDIT

    Upon SETTLEMENT or FINAL ADJUDICATION of the ACTIONS and CLAIMS, the INSURED
    shall be entitled to a "GOOD EXPERIENCE CREDIT". Such GOOD EXPERIENCE CREDIT
    shall be calculated upon the NET RECOVERY (as herein defined) to the INSURED
    in accordance with the following schedule:

<Table>
<Caption>
    Net Recovery to Insured                            Good Experience Credit
    -----------------------                            ----------------------
                                                    
    $1  to $5,000,000                                  70% of Premium
    $5,000,001 to $10,000,000                          60% of Premium
    $10,000,001 to $ 15,000,000                        50% of Premium
    $15,000,001  to $20,000,000                        40% of Premium
    Greater than $20,000,000                           No credit applied
</Table>

    Any and all monies paid to the INSURED in connection with the ACTIONS or
    CLAIMS, including

                                        5
<Page>

    but not limited to monies placed in the joint escrow account pursuant to
    Clause #11, Escrow Account, shall be considered a recovery by the INSURED.
    Moreover, any monies paid to the INSURED as a result of CLAIMS shall be
    considered a recovery by the INSURED. Upon SETTLEMENT or FINAL ADJUDICATION
    of all ACTIONS and CLAIMS, including the exhaustion of any and all rights of
    appeal, such recovery by the INSURED shall be first paid to the Insurer for
    reimbursement of any LOSS incurred by the Insurer in connection with the
    ACTIONS or CLAIMS. To the extent that any recovery by the INSURED shall
    exceed the sum of the LOSS incurred by the Insurer, the INSURED shall be
    entitled to be paid the difference. Such difference is considered the "NET
    RECOVERY" to the INSURED for purposes of calculating the GOOD EXPERIENCE
    CREDIT hereunder.

    The NAMED INSURED, with the written consent of the Insurer, whose consent
    shall not be unreasonably withheld, may commute this INSURANCE AGREEMENT
    pursuant to a full release of the Insurer's liabilities with respect to this
    INSURANCE AGREEMENT. In the event of a commutation, the GOOD EXPERIENCE
    CREDIT and any NET RECOVERY held in escrow pursuant to Clause #11, Escrow
    Account, shall be paid to the NAMED INSURED. In the event of commutation,
    the provisions of Clauses #4, Premium, and #5, Good Experience Credit, shall
    remain in force.

    For purposes of the INSURED, such GOOD EXPERIENCE CREDIT shall be considered
    return premium. For purposes of the Insurer, such GOOD EXPERIENCE CREDIT
    shall be considered part of LOSS; however, such classification of the GOOD
    EXPERIENCE CREDIT as a part of LOSS shall have no bearing on the calculation
    of the Retention, Limit of Liability, NET RECOVERY or GOOD EXPERIENCE
    CREDIT.

    Any payments owed to the NAMED INSURED pursuant to this Clause #5, shall be
    paid to the NAMED INSURED within 45 days of commutation as provided herein.

6.  LIMIT OF LIABILITY (FOR ALL LOSS - INCLUDING DEFENSE COSTS)

    The Limit of Liability stated in Item 4 of the Declarations is the limit of
    the Insurer's liability for all LOSS arising out of the ACTIONS.

    DEFENSE COSTS are not payable by the Insurer in addition to the limit of
    Liability. DEFENSE COSTS are part of LOSS and as such are subject to the
    Limit of Liability for LOSS.

7.  EXCLUSIONS

    A.    For other than the purpose of satisfying the Retention as set forth in
          Item 3 of the Declarations, this INSURANCE AGREEMENT shall not cover

          contractors, subcontractors, vendors and/or suppliers, or to LIENS
          assigned to LMB from its trade contractors, subcontractors, vendors
          and/or suppliers.

               effective date of this INSURANCE AGREEMENT.

    D.    For other than the purpose of satisfying the Retention as set forth in
          Item 3 of the Declarations, this INSURANCE AGREEMENT shall not cover
          any sums arising out of or related to liability created by the LIDO
          LETTER.

    E.    This INSURANCE AGREEMENT shall not cover BODILY INJURY, PROPERTY
          DAMAGE, ADVERTISING LIABILITY AND PERSONAL INJURY, including LOSS
          assumed by contract for any of the foregoing.

    F.    This INSURANCE AGREEMENT shall not cover punitive or exemplary
          damages, fines, penalties and or treble damages.

8.  RETENTION

    This INSURANCE AGREEMENT shall not apply to:

    (i)   any LOSS paid by the INSURED prior to the effective date of this
          INSURANCE AGREEMENT;

    (ii)  any LOSS (whether paid prior to the effective date of this INSURANCE
          AGREEMENT or

                                        7
<Page>

          requiring future payment) arising out of any agreements, arrangements
          or the like made by the INSURED to settle, compromise or dispose of
          any ACTION or CLAIM prior to the effective date of this INSURANCE
          AGREEMENT;

    (iii) the first $45,000,000 of LOSS.

    Such Retention shall be borne by the INSURED and remain uninsured.

    For purposes of calculating the Retention as set forth in Item 3 of the
    Declarations only, LOSS shall include:

          a.   all sums, other than delay and inefficiency damages and lost
               profits as described in Paragraphs 1 and 2 of the definition of
               LOSS, up to $36,500,000 owed by the INSURED for any Liens in the
               ACTIONS other than those described in Paragraphs 5 and 6 of the
               definition of LOSS; b. all sums up to $8,497,274 owed by the
               INSURED to LMB arising out of or related to liability created by
               the LIDO LETTER.

    For purposes of calculating the Retention as set forth in Item 3 of the
    Declarations, all DEFENSE COSTS incurred by the Insurer in connection with
    the ACTIONS shall not be included in LOSS.

9.  PRIORITY OF PAYMENT IN DETERMINATION OF FULFILLMENT OF THE RETENTION

    Regardless of the actual order in which payments are made by the INSURED or
    the Insurer, the Insurer will apply such payments in the following order to
    determine satisfaction of the Retention as set forth in Item 3 of the
    Declarations:

    1.         LOSS as described in Paragraph 7 of the definition of LOSS
               ("PARAGRAPH 7 LOSS"); and then,
    2.         all other LOSS.

    Every time a LOSS payment is made, by either the INSURED or the Insurer, the
    Insurer shall recalculate the satisfaction of the Retention hereunder and
    the amount of LOSS payable hereunder in excess of the Retention in
    accordance with the above.

    If the INSURED becomes obligated to pay PARAGRAPH 7 LOSS after the INSURED
    has paid LOSS equal to $45,000,000, then the Insurer shall recalculate the
    satisfaction of the Retention hereunder, treating such PARAGRAPH 7 LOSS as
    paid by the INSURED, and any amount of LOSS payable hereunder in excess of
    the Retention will be paid on behalf of the INSURED in accordance with the
    payment terms set forth in any applicable settlement agreement or by court
    order.

                                        8
<Page>

    Alternatively, if the INSURED pays PARAGRAPH 7 LOSS after the INSURED has
    paid LOSS equal to $45,000,000, then the Insurer shall recalculate the
    satisfaction of the Retention hereunder, and any amount then considered to
    be LOSS payable hereunder in excess of the Retention will be paid to the
    NAMED INSURED within 45 days of the PARAGRAPH 7 LOSS that triggered the
    recalculation.

10. SUBROGATION

    In the event of any payment of LOSS under this Insurance Agreement, the
    INSURED shall, and shall cause the defendants in the ACTIONS to: (i) assign
    to the Insurer all of their respective rights of recovery against any other
    person or entity for LOSS incurred by the defendants arising out of the
    ACTIONS, and (ii) execute all papers required and do everything that may be
    necessary to secure such rights, including but not limited to the execution
    of such documents necessary to enable the Insurer to effectively bring suit
    in the name of such defendants. Notwithstanding anything in this Insurance
    Agreement to the contrary, the Insurer shall not be entitled to any rights
    of recovery against any or all of the INSURED or any of its respective
    directors, officers, partners, employees or affiliates, directly or
    indirectly.

11. ESCROW ACCOUNT

    Any monies which are paid to the INSURED, arising out of or in connection
    with the ACTIONS or CLAIMS, shall be placed in an escrow account in a bank
    which is a member of the Federal Reserve System which has total assets of at
    least $500 million and short-term deposit rating of at least P-1 (Moody's)
    or A-1 (Standard & Poor's) jointly held by the INSURED and Insurer until
    SETTLEMENT or FINAL ADJUDICATION of all ACTIONS and CLAIMS. The INSURED and
    the Insurer shall have no vested interest in the monies until the conclusion
    of all ACTIONS and CLAIMS, and the funds shall not be subject to attachment
    by creditors of the INSURED and the Insurer. Such funds held in escrow in
    accordance with this clause shall be disbursed upon SETTLEMENT or FINAL
    ADJUDICATION of all ACTIONS and CLAIMS pursuant to Clause #5, Good
    Experience Credit, of this INSURANCE AGREEMENT. Earnings on the funds held
    in escrow shall be paid to the INSURED. This clause shall be subject to a
    mutually agreeable escrow agreement between the NAMED INSURED and the
    Insurer.

12. ASSIGNMENT

    Neither this INSURANCE AGREEMENT nor any of the rights or obligations
    hereunder are assignable by either party hereto without the prior written
    consent of the other party hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably
    withheld. In the event that the Insurer does not respond to the request for
    assignment within 10 business days, the Insurer will be deemed to have
    consented to the assignment. The rights hereunder shall inure only to the
    benefit of the

                                        9
<Page>

    NAMED INSURED and the Insurer, and no other person or entity shall be deemed
    a beneficiary thereof.

13. BANKRUPTCY OR INSOLVENCY

    The INSURED'S bankruptcy, insolvency or inability to pay, will not relieve
    the Insurer from payment of any LOSS covered by this INSURANCE AGREEMENT.
    But under no circumstances will such bankruptcy, insolvency or inability to
    pay require the Insurer to drop down and replace the Retention as set forth
    in Item #3 of the Declarations or assume any obligation within the Retention
    as set forth in Item #3 of the Declarations.

14. OTHER INSURANCE

    If other valid and collectable insurance applies to a LOSS that is also
    covered by this INSURANCE AGREEMENT, then this INSURANCE AGREEMENT will
    apply excess of the other insurance. However, this provision will not apply
    if the other insurance is specifically written to be excess of this
    INSURANCE AGREEMENT.

15. COOPERATION

    The INSURED must:

          (a)  immediately send the Insurer copies of any demands, notices,
               summonses or legal papers received in connection with the ACTIONS
               or CLAIMS;
          (b)  authorize the Insurer to obtain records and other information;
          (c)  cooperate with the Insurer in the investigation, settlement or
               defense of the ACTIONS or CLAIMS; and,
          (d)  assist the Insurer, upon its request, in the enforcement of any
               right against any person or organization which may be liable to
               the INSURED for LOSS to which this INSURANCE AGREEMENT may also
               apply.

    No INSURED will, except at its own cost, voluntarily make a payment, assume
    any obligation, or incur any expense, related to the ACTIONS, without the
    Insurer's consent.
