                                 PITTSBURGH, PA.
                        (HERAFTER CALLED THE "REINSURER")

 ................................................................................

It is understood and agreed that effective December 30, 2000 the following
articles are amended to read as follows.

ARTICLE II                        TERM AND TERMINATION
- ----------                        --------------------

This Agreement commences at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Standard Time, January 1, 2000
and shall remain in force until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, December 31,
2001. Either party may terminate effective on the first day of any calendar
quarter with 60 days advance written notice. The Reinsurer shall remain liable
for loss under reinsured policies effective prior to the termination date.

ARTICLE IV                        QUOTA SHARE PARTICIPATION AND LIMIT
- ----------                        -----------------------------------

The aggregate quota share cession shall be at the option of the Company and
subject to a maximum of 75%. However, the maximum cession will be limited to
$70,000,000 for the calendar year 2001. In the event this produces more than
$70,000,000 for the calendar year, the dollar amount of cessions shall be
reduced to $70,000,000. The quota share percent applicable for the Company shall
be the ratio of the adjusted dollar cession to the gross subject written premium
for the Company for that year. This limit can be increased by mutual agreement
between the Reinsurer and the Company. The Company shall notify the Reinsurer
prior to the last day of the calendar quarter of the quota share percent for
that quarter. It is agreed that the cession for any one quarter shall not exceed
40% of the total cession for the calendar year. In the event the declared
percent cession for a calendar quarter produces premiums in excess of 40% of the
premium ceded for the calendar year the cession for that quarter shall be
adjusted to the dollar amount that would equal 40% of the premium ceded for the
year.

The Reinsurer's liability for aggregate losses, including allocated loss
adjustment expenses (and unallocated loss adjustment expenses where applicable
under REPORTS AND ACOCUNTING), shall be limited to 97% of earned premium ceded
for all business from the inception date of this agreement and the calculation
shall be from inception to the calculation date.


All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF: the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed
by their Authorized representatives.
