ARTICLE I
SALE AND PURCHASE

1.1           Sale and Purchase of the Purchased Interests.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing and as of the Effective Date (as defined below), the Sellers will sell, and the Purchaser will purchase, the Purchased Interests for an aggregate purchase price that will be calculated and paid in accordance with Section 1.4.

1.2           Effective Date.

The last day of the month after the conditions set forth in Article VIII have been satisfied or waived shall be the effective date of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that are ultimately consummated regardless of when the Closing occurs (the “Effective Date”).

1.3           Closing.

The closing of the sale and purchase of the Purchased Interests (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ PLLC, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ at 10:00 A.M., Eastern time on the Effective Date or at such other date and time as the parties may agree to in writing (the “Closing Date”).  At the Closing:

AVL will deliver to the Purchaser, free and clear of any Liens, the certificates representing the Shares duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock or other appropriate transfer powers duly executed in blank and accompanied by all requisite stock transfer stamps;

The Purchaser, the Sellers and members of the Company Group that are parties to such agreements shall enter into and have duly executed the following agreements:

(i)                                     the Transitional Services and Service Bureau Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A;

(ii)                                  the BIPD Agreement, on terms substantially as set forth in the term sheet attached hereto as Exhibit B;

(iii)                               the Marketing and Support Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C; and

(iv)                              the Software Assignment Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D;

(collectively, the “Transaction Documents”).

the Purchaser will pay the Initial Closing Payment (as defined in Section 1.4(b)(i)) to the Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to accounts designated by the Sellers.

1.4           Calculation and Payment of Purchase Price.

The “Purchase Price” shall be comprised of the Base Purchase Price and Purchase Price Premium as defined in this Section 1.4:

(a)           Calculation of Purchase Price.

(i)            Base Purchase Price.  The “Base Purchase Price” shall be comprised of the Adjusted GAAP Equity calculated from the Final Closing Balance Sheet (as defined in Section 1.5(c)(ii)).  “Adjusted GAAP Equity” is defined as the GAAP Equity minus (1) any amounts attributable to goodwill and other purchase related intangibles, net of any related inter-company balances (which amounts shall be deemed settled as of the Effective Date), (2) any net deferred tax asset, (3) any amount of net fixed assets, plus (4) any net deferred tax liability.

(ii)           Purchase Price Premium.  $20 million premium paid in accordance with Section 1.4(b)(iii) (the “Purchase Price Premium”).

(b)           Payment of Purchase Price.  The components of Purchase Price shall be paid as follows:

(i)            Initial Closing Payment.  At the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to the Sellers the Adjusted GAAP Equity calculated from the 2004 GAAP Balance Sheet (as defined in Article XI) minus the Closing Date BIPD Funding Requirement (as defined in the BIPD Agreement) and minus any net adverse development on the Loss Reserves (as defined in Section 7.1) since December 31, 2004, on Loss Reserves as of December 31, 2004, based upon actuarial select in the latest quarterly Independent Actuarial Evaluation (as defined in Section 7.2) available (the “Initial Closing Payment”).

(ii)           Post Closing Adjustment.  The “Post Closing Adjustment” is calculated as the Adjusted GAAP Equity based on the Final Closing Balance Sheet minus the Closing Date BIPD Funding Requirement (as defined in the BIPD Agreement), minus the Initial Closing Payment, plus or minus any Final Audit Adjustment (as defined in Section 1.5(b)).  If the Post Closing Adjustment produces a positive number, the Purchaser shall pay such Post Closing Adjustment to the Sellers with interest from the Closing Date to the date of payment of the Post Closing Adjustment at a rate of three percent (3%) per annum, and if the Post Closing Adjustment produces a negative number, the Sellers shall pay such Post Closing Adjustment to the Purchaser with interest from the Closing Date to the date of payment of the Post Closing Adjustment at a rate of three percent (3%) per annum.  The payment of any Post Closing Adjustment shall be paid within five business days of acceptance by the parties of the Final Closing Balance Sheet (as defined in Section 1.5(c)(ii)) by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(iii)          Purchase Price Premium.  On the 120^th day following the second anniversary of the Effective Date and on each anniversary of such payment for four years

3

thereafter, the Purchaser shall pay the Seller an amount of Purchase Price Premium equal to $4 million.  Such annual payments shall be adjusted by any amounts due from the Sellers attributable to (1) the Reserve Guaranty (as provided for in Article VII) or (2) the indemnification provisions in Section 9.2(e).

1.5           Preparation and Delivery of Financial Statements.

(a)           Preparation of Draft Closing Balance Sheet.   The Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers as soon as practicable, and in no event later than 120 days after the Effective Date, a combined balance sheet of the Company Group dated as of the Effective Date, prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the application of GAAP in the 2004 GAAP Balance Sheet (the “Draft Closing Balance Sheet”), and a calculation of the Adjusted GAAP Equity of the Company Group as of the Effective Date based on the Draft Closing Balance Sheet.  The Purchaser shall engage ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or another actuarial firm of national reputation mutually agreed by the Purchaser and the Sellers to conduct an Independent Actuarial Evaluation of the reserves of Transguard for unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses, net of reinsurance, as at the Effective Date.  The Draft Closing Balance Sheet shall reflect reserves recorded based on the actuarial select estimate of unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses set forth in such Independent Actuarial Evaluation as of the Effective Date.  The Sellers shall cooperate with the Purchaser and take such actions as may be necessary or otherwise reasonably requested by the Purchaser in connection with the preparation of the Draft Closing Balance Sheet, including making the Sellers’ advisors available for the purpose of providing such information as the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to prepare such financial statements.

(b)           Post Closing Balance Sheet.  The Purchaser shall obtain an audit of the balance sheet of the Company Group as of December 31 following the Effective Date (the “Post Closing Balance Sheet”).  The audit of the Post Closing Balance Sheet shall be completed and the audit report shall be received by the Purchaser within 120 days of the date of the Post Closing Balance Sheet.  Any accounting errors discovered during the audit of the Post Closing Balance Sheet that would have had an impact of more than $100,000, either individually or in the aggregate, on the calculation of the Adjusted GAAP Equity based on the Draft Closing Balance Sheet, if the item had been properly reflected in the Draft Closing Balance Sheet, shall be considered a “Final Audit Adjustment” (such amount being the aggregation of all errors discovered).

(c)           Notice of Disagreement.  Upon the Sellers’ request, the Purchaser shall provide the Sellers with copies of workpapers and other documents relating to its preparation of the Draft Closing Balance Sheet and the Post Closing Balance Sheet.  If the Sellers disagree with the Draft Closing Balance Sheet or the Purchaser’s calculations of the Adjusted GAAP Equity or the Final Audit Adjustment, the Sellers will give written notice of all such disagreements (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to the Purchaser within 30 days after the Post Closing Balance Sheet is delivered to the Sellers.

(i)            The Notice of Disagreement must set forth each item in disagreement, provide reasonable specificity as to the basis for each disagreement, and specify (to the extent practicable) the total adjustment to the Adjusted GAAP Equity as calculated by the Purchaser as a result of such items in disagreement.

4

(ii)           If the Sellers do not deliver a Notice of Disagreement to the Purchaser within such 30 day period, the Adjusted GAAP Equity as calculated by the Purchaser will be final and binding upon the parties, the Draft Closing Balance Sheet will constitute the final combined balance sheet of the Company Group as of the Effective Date (the “Final Closing Balance Sheet”), and the Adjusted GAAP Equity and Final Audit Adjustment as calculated by the Purchaser will constitute the final calculation of such amounts.

(iii)          If the Sellers deliver a Notice of Disagreement to the Purchaser within such 30 day period, the parties will negotiate in good faith to resolve all disagreements as promptly as practicable.  Any changes in the Draft Closing Balance Sheet, Adjusted GAAP Equity, or Final Audit Adjustment that are agreed to by the Purchaser and the Sellers will be incorporated into the Final Closing Balance Sheet and the final calculations of the Adjusted GAAP Equity and Final Audit Adjustment.

(iv)          If the parties are unable to resolve all disagreements within 90 days after receipt by the Purchaser of the Notice of Disagreement, then all unresolved disagreements will be resolved in accordance with Section 10.12.

(a)           The Company Group has no direct employees and its business is currently conducted by the employees of the Sellers under a common paymaster arrangement.  The names, job titles, general job descriptions, salaries and benefits of such employees (collectively, the “Company Group Employees”) shall be provided to the Purchaser prior to the execution of this Agreement.  On or prior to the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall, select the Company Group Employees for which it will offer continued employment.  Company Group Employees selected by the Purchaser will be offered employment as of the Closing Date under the Purchaser’s own terms and conditions in the event the Closing Date is subsequent to December 31, 2005.  In the event the Closing Date is prior to December 31, 2005, and the Continuing Employees (as defined herein) are leased pursuant to Section 6.1(b), such Continuing Employees will be offered employment effective January 1, 2006, under the Purchaser’s own terms and conditions.  Those Company Group Employees who accept the Purchaser’s offer of employment as of the Closing Date or January 1, 2006, as applicable, shall be referred to herein as the “Continuing Employees.”  Except as provided herein, (i) the Purchaser shall not be liable to any Company Group Employee or the Sellers for termination pay, severance pay, unemployment benefits, disability benefits, payment for accrued vacation, sick or personal time, profit sharing or retirement benefits, or any other benefits which such employee may be or become entitled to as a result of being, or ceasing to be, a Company Group Employee, and (ii) the Sellers shall assume full responsibility for any payments or liabilities attributable to any benefit program offered to Company Group Employees by them.

(b)           In the event the Closing Date is prior to December 31, 2005, the Sellers will lease to the Purchaser the Continuing Employees on terms and conditions set forth in the Transitional Services and Service Bureau Agreement.

(c)           The Purchaser shall comply with all applicable Laws with respect to its selection of Continuing Employees.

6.2           No Obligation.

While the Purchaser anticipates offering employment to a large portion of the Company Group Employees, no provision of this Agreement (other than Section 6.7(b)) shall be construed:

(a)           to require the Purchaser to hire any Company Group Employees;

(b)           to require the Purchaser to provide any particular employee benefits to any Company Group Employees employed by the Purchaser;

25

(c)           to require the Purchaser to recognize any years of service of such employees for purposes of determining such employees’ rights or benefits under any employee benefit plans of the Purchaser; or

(d)           to prohibit the Purchaser from having the right to terminate the employment of any such employee, with or without cause.

6.3           Relocation Costs.

To the extent the Purchaser offers employment to Company Group Employees at a location of the Purchaser more than 50 miles from the current working location of such employee, for a period of 120 days after the Closing Date the Sellers shall be responsible for actual relocation costs up to the amount of severance that would have been incurred by the Sellers if such employee had not been employed by the Purchaser.

6.4           Employee Benefit Plans.

Except as provided in Section 6.7, the Sellers shall fully indemnify the Purchaser and Company Group for any cost or liability attributable to any employee benefit plan provided at any time by the Sellers or its Affiliates.

6.5           401(k) Plan.

With respect to the Sellers’ current 401(k) plan, the Sellers shall vest any employer matching contribution for all Continuing Employees as of the Closing Date.  As of a date (the “Account Transfer Date”) as soon as practicable after the Closing Date or, if later, the date as of which Continuing Employees become employees of the Purchaser, the Sellers shall cause to be transferred from the current 401(k) plan sponsored by the Sellers (the “Sellers’ 401(k) Plan”) to a tax qualified section 401(k) plan sponsored by the Purchaser (the “Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan”) cash or property reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser in an amount equal to the aggregate vested account balances of all Continuing Employees who are participants in the Sellers’ 401(k) Plan as of such Account Transfer Date (the “Transferred Assets”), except that all promissory notes reflecting participant loans to Continuing Employees outstanding as of such Account Transfer Date shall be transferred in kind.  As of the Account Transfer Date, the Purchaser shall assume all liabilities applicable to Continuing Employees to the extent of the Transferred Assets.  In the event any Company Employee has a qualified domestic relations order pending or approved in respect of any Continuing Employee participating in the Sellers’ 401(k) Plan at the time of transfer, all documentation concerning such qualified domestic relations order shall be assigned to the Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan.  The Sellers and the Purchaser agree to cooperate fully with respect to any governmental filings, including but not limited to the filing of any Internal Revenue Service Form 5310A reporting obligations, information and procedures necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 6.5.  Pending the transfer of the Transferred Assets, the accounts of the Continuing Employees shall remain in the trust fund for the Sellers’ 401(k) Plan and the Sellers shall cause the trustee of the Sellers’ 401(k) Plan to pay any current benefits or make any distributions to Continuing Employees, including, without limitation, such benefits as may be payable to Continuing Employees on account of termination of employment

26

with the Sellers, as they become due in accordance with the terms of the Sellers’ 401(k) Plan. The Sellers and the Purchaser agree to provide each other with such records and information as they may reasonably request relating to their respective obligations under this Section 6.5, subject to any confidentiality restrictions under applicable Laws.

6.6           Continuing Disability Liability.

If the Purchaser selects a Continuing Employee that is on disability leave as of the Closing Date, the Continuing Employee shall remain covered under the Sellers’ disability plan for purposes of payment of benefits for that period of disability.

6.7           Sellers’ Severance Liability.

(a)           The Sellers will be responsible for any severance liability related to any Continuing Employees terminated by the Purchaser within 120 days following the Closing Date, calculated in accordance with the Sellers’ severance benefit as reflected on Schedule 6.7.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Sellers’ exposure for severance liability under Sections 6.1 and 6.7 hereof and relocation costs in lieu of severance benefits under Section 6.3 hereof exceed $300,000 (in the aggregate).  The Purchaser will be responsible for all such severance and relocation liabilities in excess of $300,000 (in the aggregate), if any.

(b)           The Purchaser shall not terminate any more than 24 Continuing Employees within the 90 day period following the date such Continuing Employees are hired by the Purchaser.  Likewise, the Purchaser shall offer employment to a sufficient number of Company Group Employees upon such terms and conditions as are necessary to avoid triggering notification and disclosure obligations under the Worker Adjustment and Restraining Notification Act (WARN) or any analogous State law.  The Sellers shall not terminate any Company Group Employees between the date hereof and the Closing Date except for cause or other reasons unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.8           References to the Purchaser.

References to the Purchaser in this Article VI shall mean the Purchaser, any member of the Company Group or the Purchaser’s Affiliates.

ARTICLE VII

RESERVE GUARANTY

7.1           Guaranty of the Sellers.

The Sellers fully and unconditionally guarantee (the “Reserve Guaranty”) the adequacy of the reserves for loss and loss adjustment expense (the “Loss Reserves”) of Transguard and the collectability and admissibility of related reinsurance up to an aggregate amount equal to the Purchase Price Premium, for a period of six years from the Effective Date subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.  Such six year period will be extended for 120 days if necessary in order to complete the Independent Actuarial Evaluation (as defined below).  The

27

reserves for unallocated loss and loss adjustment expense contained in the Independent Actuarial Evaluation (as defined below) shall be capped at 7.0% of the reserves for loss and loss adjustment expense gross of reinsurance as reflected in the respective Independent Actuarial Evaluation.  Further, if Sellers have met all collateral and funding requirements contained in the BIPD Agreement, the Loss Reserves subject to this Article 7 will exclude any development on Loss Reserves related to the deductible portion of the Transguard Policy (as defined in the BIPD Agreement).

7.2           Adverse Reserve Development.

If at any time during the six year period following the Effective Date the Purchaser determines that Transguard’s Loss Reserves as of the Effective Date were inadequate or related reinsurance is uncollectible or deemed statutorily non-admissible (“Adverse Reserve Development”) based upon the independent actuarial evaluation performed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or some other independent, qualified actuary mutually acceptable to the parties as of December 31 of each year within such six year period (“Independent Actuarial Evaluation”), such Adverse Reserve Development shall be subject to the provisions of this Article VII.

7.3           Reserve Development Cure.

Within 120 days of the anniversary of the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers a written notice of any reserve development in the form attached as Exhibit E hereto (“Reserve Development Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of such reserve development, including the Independent Actuarial Evaluation as of the most recent December 31.  The Purchaser shall have the right to offset the amount of any Adverse Reserve Development set forth in the Reserve Development Notice based upon the Independent Actuarial Evaluation as of the most recent December 31, against any annual Purchase Price Premium payment pursuant to Section 1.4(b)(iii).

7.4           Calculation of Reserve Development.

Any calculation of reserve development shall be based on the change in:

(a)           the select estimate of ultimate losses and loss adjustment expenses incurred, net of reinsurance, for all periods ending on or before the Effective Date, based on the Independent Actuarial Evaluation of reserves for loss and loss adjustment expense, net of reinsurance, as of the Effective Date and recorded in the Final Closing Balance Sheet; and

(b)           the select estimate of ultimate loss and loss adjustment expense incurred, net of reinsurance, for all periods ending on or before the Effective Date, based on the applicable Independent Actuarial Evaluation of reserves for loss and loss adjustment expense, net of reinsurance, as of the applicable year end after the Effective Date through the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date.

If the select estimate of ultimate loss and loss adjustment expense incurred, net of reinsurance, for all periods ending on or before the Effective Date, increases based on the

28

applicable Independent Actuarial Evaluation prepared as of the applicable year end after the Effective Date compared to an Independent Actuarial Evaluation as of the Effective Date, such increase will be deemed Adverse Reserve Development, as previously defined, and if the select estimate of ultimate loss and loss adjustment expense incurred, net of reinsurance, for all periods ending on or before the Effective Date, decreases based on the applicable Independent Actuarial Evaluation prepared as of the applicable year end after the Effective Date compared to the Independent Actuarial Evaluation as of the Effective Date, such decrease will be deemed “Favorable Reserve Development”.

7.5           Actuarial Analysis.

The Purchaser shall furnish to the Sellers with any Reserve Development Notice an Independent Actuarial Evaluation.

7.6           Recoupment of Purchase Price Premium Payments.

If at any time during the six year period following the Effective Date the current Adverse Reserve Development exceeds the Purchase Price Premium payment due during such year, such excess shall be paid by the Sellers up to the amount of prior Purchase Price Premium payments.  Any remaining excess during such year shall be carried forward to future periods as a reduction to future annual Purchase Price Premium payments.  To the extent a Purchase Price Premium payment is not paid due to Adverse Reserve Development and subsequently, within the six year period following the Effective Date, there is Favorable Reserve Development, any prior Purchase Price Premium payment that was reduced by Adverse Reserve Development shall be made to the extent of the subsequent Favorable Reserve Development, not to exceed the amount of such reduction.

To clarify, at the end of the six year period following the Effective Date the total Purchase Premium payments shall be reduced by the cumulative Adverse Reserve Development since the Effective Date and if there is no cumulative Adverse Reserve Development since the Effective Date the total Purchase Price Premium shall have been paid to the Sellers unless there is a reduction to the Purchase Price Premium payment pursuant to Section 9.2(e).  In no event shall the Reserve Guaranty exceed $20 million.

To the extent that any amount of reinsurance adjustment attributable to either uncollectibility or non-admissibility is included in the Reserve Development Notice and any part of such amount is subsequently recovered, the amount of recovery shall be credited to the Sellers if recovered within two years of the end of the six year period to the extent of any prior reduction to the Purchase Price Premium payment.  However, any offsets to the Purchase Price Premium payments (as defined herein) shall be reduced first by any reserve development, second by any uncollectible reinsurance and lastly by any non-admissible reinsurance.  The Purchaser shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts in pursuing any related reinsurance recovery and, upon the Sellers’ request after two years following the end of the six year period, Transguard shall assign to the Sellers any reinsurance recoverable that (i) was uncollectible or deemed non-admissible, (ii) was used as an offset to the Purchase Price Premium, and (iii) was not

29

subsequently recovered from such reinsurer.  Reimbursement of actual recoveries as defined herein shall continue for two years beyond the six year period.

7.7                                 Survival, Indemnification and Remedies.

Survival, indemnification and remedies related to reserves for losses and loss adjustment expenses are governed solely by this Article VII and not by any other article in this Agreement.

(i)            terminate and expire on the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Second Anniversary”) with respect to any General Claim (as hereinafter defined), provided that if such General Claim is based upon, arises out of or is otherwise in respect of any fact, circumstance, action or proceeding of which the aggrieved party shall have given written notice to the other party on or before the Second Anniversary, then such General Claim shall survive the Second Anniversary until the resolution of such General Claim in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article IX;

9.2           Obligation of the Sellers to Indemnify.

The Sellers agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser and its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, representatives and permitted assigns (the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) from and against all Losses arising out of or resulting from:

(a)           Any General Claim.

(b)           Any Tax Claim.

(c)           The Sellers shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against any Losses until the Purchaser Indemnitees have suffered Losses in the aggregate in excess of $500,000 (the “Indemnification Threshold”) and then only to the extent of such excess.  The Indemnification Threshold shall not apply to indemnification for Losses related to any Tax Claim or any claim under Article VII, Section 2.15 or any other section of this Agreement specifically limiting its applicability.

(d)           The Sellers shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against any Loss that individually is less than $5,000 and each such Loss will be taken into account in determining whether the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds the Indemnification Threshold.

(e)           The Sellers’ obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees from and against any Losses related to any General Claim shall be limited to $50,000,000 (the “General Indemnity Cap”); provided, however, that if such Loss equals or exceeds $60,000,000, then the Purchaser shall be entitled to setoff an amount in respect of Losses determined as indemnifiable in accordance with Article IX or as the parties agree is indemnifiable in accordance with this Article IX in excess of $60,000,000 against any Purchase Price Premium payment.

34

9.4           Notice and Opportunity to Defend Third Party Claims.

(a)           Notice of Third Party Claim.  Promptly after receipt by the Purchaser or the Sellers from a third party of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances that, with the lapse of time, would give rise to a claim or the commencement (or threatened commencement) of any action, proceeding or investigation that may result in a Loss for which indemnification is or may be available under this Article IX (a “Third Party Claim”), the indemnified party shall give notice thereof (the “Claims Notice”) to the other party.  The Claims Notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail and shall indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary) of the Loss that has been or may be suffered by the indemnified party.

(b)           Opportunity to Defend.  The indemnifying party may elect to compromise or defend and control the defense of, at its own expense and by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, any Third Party Claim, provided that the indemnified party shall have no liability under any compromise or settlement agreed to by the indemnifying party that indemnified party has not approved in writing, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.  If the indemnifying party elects to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, it shall within 30 days of receipt of the Claims Notice (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) notify the indemnified party of its intent to do so, and the indemnified party shall cooperate upon the request and at the expense of the indemnifying party, in the compromise of, or defense against, such Third Party Claim.  If the indemnifying party elects not to compromise or defend the Third Party Claim, or fails to notify the indemnified party of its election as herein provided, the indemnified party may pay or defend such Third Party Claim in any manner it reasonably may deem appropriate; provided, that in no event will an indemnified party consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  In any event, the indemnified party and the indemnifying party may, at their own expense, participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim by the other party.  If the indemnifying party chooses to defend any claim, the indemnified party shall make available to the indemnifying party any books, records or other documents within its control that are reasonably requested for such defense and shall otherwise cooperate with the indemnifying party, in which event the indemnified party shall be reimbursed for its out-of-pocket expenses (which shall not include salary, wages, overhead and the like).

(c)           No Application to Tax Claims.  The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not apply with respect to Tax Claims attributable to Tax proceedings described in Section 5.5, the terms of which shall govern the conduct of all such proceedings.

9.5           Remedies.

Without prejudice to the rights and obligations of indemnification contained in this Article, and in addition to them, the parties shall have, without limitation, the right to seek specific performance of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any portion hereof or thereof.

35

9.6           Mitigation.

In the event that any party suffers any Loss for which it has or makes a valid claim against another party for indemnification, it must take reasonable steps to mitigate its Loss.

9.7           Determination of Losses.

With respect to any right to indemnify of either party under this Article IX:

(a)           In determining losses for the purposes of a General Claim, no consideration or adjustment shall be made for taxes or tax benefits attributable to such losses.

(b)           The amount of any Losses incurred by the indemnified party shall be reduced by the net amount the indemnified party or any of its Affiliates recovers (after deducting all reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and other costs of recovery) from any insurer or other party liable for such Losses, and the indemnified party shall use reasonable efforts to effect any such recovery.

(c)           To the extent provided by applicable law, indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated by the Purchaser and the Sellers and their Affiliates as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all relevant tax purposes.

9.8           Limitation on Damages.

The Sellers and the Purchaser acknowledge that neither party will seek recovery for punitive or consequential damages pursuant to this Article IX, other than indemnification for any such damages paid to another party with respect to a Third Party Claim.

9.9                                 Reserves for Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses.

Survival, indemnification and remedies related to Article VII (Reserve Guaranty) shall be exclusively governed by Article VII of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Article VII of this Agreement set forth the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser with respect to the adequacy or sufficiency of, or the calculation methodology relating to, the reserves for loss and loss adjustment expense of Transguard; provided, however, that the Funding Requirement and other obligations set forth in the BIPD Agreement constitute separate and distinct obligations of the Sellers to Transguard.

9.10         Exclusivity of Indemnification Provision.

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the indemnity provided for in this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser Indemnitees after the Closing for any inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Sellers or any failure or breach of any covenant, obligation, condition or agreement to be performed or fulfilled by the Sellers, excluding those contained in Article VII.

36

10.4         Termination.

(a)           This Agreement may be terminated:

(i)            by mutual consent of the Purchaser and the Sellers; or

(ii)           by the Purchaser or the Sellers if the Closing has not taken place on or before March 31, 2006, or such later date as the parties may have agreed to in writing, provided that the non-occurrence of the Closing is not attributable to a breach of the terms of this Agreement by the party seeking termination, and provided that this Agreement may be extended by written notice of either the Sellers or the Purchaser to a date not later than April 30, 2006, if the non-occurrence of the Closing is a direct result of the conditions contained in Section 8.1 (a)-(e) not having been satisfied by such date.

37
